Age of Conquest Reborn

Major General Huang Wanshan, commander of the Fourth Brigade of the Independent Division Marine Corps attacking the Liaodong Peninsula, saw Japanese armed civilians rushing up from all over the mountains and plains. In the flash of exploding mortar shells, they wore variegated clothes and had no training at all.

The movements, and even the woman with disheveled hair, with flesh and blood flying everywhere, and the broken arms were constantly being thrown up, but they were still mechanically rushing forward like inanimate objects. He felt unbelievable!

If we talk about the Marine Corps, it is not that it has not been baptized by blood and fire on the battlefield, but it has also grown up in bloody battles. Its predecessor, the Yellow River and Henan Defense Line Garrison Corps, has less than 50,000 troops as a second-line force.

, to ensure

Division Commander Tang Qiuli's campaign plan to encircle and annihilate the main force of the Japanese army in Xuzhou was successfully implemented. After attacking Tang Enbo's troops and being routed thousands of miles away, he stopped more than ten troops from the First Army of Xiaozhao Guoji, the main force of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force, in Kaifeng, the ancient capital of Henan.

Thousands of people.

The Kaifeng Blockade could be said to be the most intense battle after the Independent Division entered Henan. It was precisely because of the desperate blockade of the Yellow River Henan Garrison Corps that the elite division of more than 100,000 people from the First Corps of the Japanese North China Expeditionary Force was unable to make it on time.

Launched an attack on Xuzhou, an important town in northern Jiangsu, the Corps Department at that time

The commander, Major General Su Jingfeng, commanded the headquarters and fought a bloody battle for a week with the Japanese elite troops who were more than twice his own strength. Su Jingfeng himself died for his country. More than 300 officers were killed and more than 10,000 soldiers were killed.

After dyeing Kaifeng, the Yellow River and Henan Garrison Corps became famous in one battle!

At that time, Huang Wanshan was still the deputy battalion commander and had personally experienced the tragic blocking battle. After the Battle of Kaifeng, the Yellow River and Henan Garrison Corps managed to become a main force. Otherwise, the original division commander Tang Qiuli chose.

When the unit was changed to the Marine Corps, facing several veteran teams with great achievements and long reputations, they would not immediately choose this unit that although it could fight tough battles, it was still a second-line unit.

Huang Wanshan has seen the world. He has seen the madness and ferocity of Japanese army groups when they charge. He has also seen Japanese troops who stubbornly resisted and fought to the last man. However, he has never seen tens of thousands of Japanese civilians like tonight.

.Some even didn’t even have rifles, they were just covered in explosives and grenades, rushing upward desperately, as if their companions had been blown apart by mortar shells and thrown into the air like a piece of wood.

"What a damn evil thing! These little devils who are desperate for life are more ferocious than the little devils in the regular army. Could it be that the commander mentioned the unconventional warfare methods of the little devils? My fourth brigade, even the regular little devils

Countless Japanese have been killed,

How can we be afraid of these Japanese armed civilians!" Although the mortar shells were dense, it was impossible to block every space. While Huang Wanshan was muttering in his heart, those figures who were lucky enough not to be blown apart by the mortar shells were approaching the 4th Brigade position.

.

The fire caused by the explosion of the mortar shells vaguely reflected the figures of these life-threatening volunteers, and Huang Wanshan saw it. The officers and soldiers of the first regiment of the fourth brigade on the forward position could see more clearly.

Especially those women with disheveled hair. If those young Jaap soldiers in khaki military uniforms rush up to them, a group of soldiers will not hesitate to shoot submachine gun bullets into the body of the Japs.

However, they were facing a group of civilians. The long-distance mortar shelling was not strong, but they could clearly see it all. The soldiers hesitated, and the regiment commander also hesitated. The brigade headquarters did not shoot the Japanese.

Civilian orders and hesitation on the battlefield are often fatal

, because of hesitation, some members of the Manchurian Volunteer Team had already rushed to the position, less than a hundred meters away from the soldiers. Huang Wanshan, who was observing the situation on the battlefield, immediately saw beads of sweat on his forehead. He found that he had committed a crime.

Made a fatal error.

When the headquarters conveyed the division commander's telegram to the brigade, he did not pay enough attention to it. It was not that he was slacking off on purpose, but because he felt that the regular troops of the Japs had been beaten to a pulp. How could some armed civilians pose any threat?

The brigade chief of staff proposed that the headquarters

The order was conveyed to the company and platoon level, but what did he say? By the way, it was like this, "It's not necessary. They are just armed civilians who are little devils. What's the fuss? Besides, this is not necessarily the case."

Is this true? The little devil has no soldiers, so let these ordinary people come to fight?"

Huang Wanshan's intestines turned green with regret. He saw with his own eyes that in a group of positions, there were bursts of fire and a series of loud noises. The bodies of the soldiers were thrown into the air amidst the fire and loud noises. Behind them,

There are more figures, following

Continuing to rush forward, Huang Wanshan rushed to the telephone, "First regiment commander, I, Huang Wanshan, what the hell are you waiting for? The guns in your hands are fire sticks, shoot! Let me tell you, these are not civilians,

It’s a bunch of fucking suicide bombers!”

The screams of intensive submachine guns and light and heavy machine guns rang out, mixed with the sound of huge explosions. Huang Wanshan put down the phone and sat down on the canvas marching chair. He knew very well that because of his mistake, the soldiers would pay a heavy price.

The price, as to how much it will cost, is still unknown!

Continuous gunfire sounded like a storm for several hours. The mortar unit of the 4th Brigade was still firing shells. The remaining members of the Manchurian Volunteers were still launching attacks perseveringly, but without exception.

fell to the shell explosion

In the flames of the fire, more than 40,000 people could not be wiped out in a short time. From time to time, Japanese armed civilians who were wounded but not incapacitated jumped up from the pool of blood, but to greet them,

It's a series of dense bullets.

A touch of fish-belly white appears in the east, and dawn is approaching. In front of the Fourth Brigade position, there are corpses scattered in pieces. In the strong sea breeze, the variegated and broken clothes on the corpses are floating helplessly, and there are bomb craters everywhere.

The bloodstains on the beach,

Broken arms and upturned soil were mixed together. The air was filled with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke and the pungent smell of blood. Even the strong sea breeze could not dissipate it. Such a scale of battle would not be possible.

Less than a medium-sized blocking battle.

This battle was not planned, nor was it a sudden encounter. It was an alternative on the battlefield of the Liaodong Peninsula. More than 40,000 Japanese armed civilians who launched the attack were killed. Among them, there were many women, who had no mental preparation.

For the soldiers, it is a huge psychological burden.

When Han Tie rushed to the fourth brigade, what he saw was a messy battlefield after a fierce battle. The soldiers were even more exhausted than if they had not been on the battlefield for several days. Their faces were pale, and they were constantly being beaten.

The wounded were carried down, the bodies were blown to pieces, and the craters on the position were

, Han Tie's face darkened. When counterattacking the attack of Japanese armed civilians, the Japanese artillery did not fire a single bullet. Therefore, the craters on the position could not be caused by Japanese artillery fire. That can only mean that these are

Caused by the suicide bombs of the Japs.

When Han Tie walked into the headquarters of the 4th Brigade, the brigade commander, Major General Huang Wanshan, was listening with an ugly face to the brigade chief of staff, Colonel Li Jialiang, reporting on the casualties of the troops. Seeing Han Tie walk in with a gloomy face, he hurriedly stopped the report, and the two

Jumping up and saluting, Huang Wanshan asked in surprise: "Commander, aren't you at the headquarters? Why are you at the front line?"

Han Tie did not look at Huang Wanshan, but looked at the Fourth Brigade Chief of Staff, Colonel Li Jialiang, frowning and said: "Chief of Staff Li, continue your report just now, I want to hear, your Fourth Brigade, in the middle of the night,

It was a mortar, and it was a light and heavy machine gun. How was the fight, and what were the casualties of the troops?"

Li Jialiang looked at Huang Wanshan and hesitated to speak. Han Tie suddenly became angry, "What are you looking at? Why, it's hard to say something in front of your brigade commander, right? In front of me, what else are you hiding?

of?"

Huang Wanshan said in a muffled voice: "Chief of Staff, just report to the commander. Anyway, our Fourth Brigade suffered a bit this time, and there is nothing to hide. It's embarrassing!"

Li Jialiang reported: "Commander, the fighting started at about 11 o'clock last night. Up to now, the first and second regiments of our fourth brigade's forward troops have wiped out about 40,000 Japanese armed civilians.

One slipped through the net!”

"I don't want to hear about your record. What I want to hear is the casualties of your Fourth Brigade?" Han Tie interrupted Li Jialiang and emphasized.

Li Jialiang's face became unnatural and he reported: "Yes, Commander, the casualties have just been counted. During the battle, the Second Regiment suffered 487 casualties, of which 151 were killed and one was seriously injured."

There are more than a hundred people, and the rest are slightly injured and are being bandaged and treated at the brigade field hospital!"

"Tell me about the casualties of the 1st Regiment!" Han Tie said sternly. He was very dissatisfied with Li Jialiang's deliberate avoidance of the 1st Regiment. At the same time, he had a premonition that the casualties of the 1st Regiment of the 4th Brigade would probably not be small. When he came just now,

Just passing by the regiment's position, I saw many wounded being carried down.

Li Jialiang's head dropped even lower, and even Huang Wanshan's face turned pale. "Commander, the battle of the first regiment started at about the same time as the second regiment. Because of insufficient understanding of the raids by Japanese armed civilians at night, during the battle, a regiment

There were more than 2,700 casualties, 836 soldiers were killed, and the rest were wounded. Among them, more than 1,300 were seriously injured, and the brigade field hospital is doing its best to rescue them!"

"What?" Han Tie yelled angrily, "Huang Wanshan, what did you do? Facing a ragtag group of little devils, after a few hours of fighting, a main regiment was crippled, and the soldiers of the two regiments were killed in the battle.

Together, there were nearly a thousand people. Didn’t you see the division commander’s order forwarded by the headquarters?”

"Did you tell the truth to the troops below? Counting the wounded soldiers, the fourth brigade is already half disabled! How did you become the brigade commander? Tell me, what is the reason? I want to hear the truth!"
