Rise From Eight Hundred

Twenty minutes later.

"The firepower of the Chinese is fierce? The attack of the two infantry squadrons was blocked?" Kunizaki received the battle report from the front, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but there was a trace of relief on his face.

Could it be that he had miscalculated? Are the Chinese really so ferocious that after ambushing most of their infantry regiment, they still have the energy to fight to the death with their two thousand troops?

Yes, Kunizaki was just as Tang Dao thought. After all, he was still unwilling to defeat Maicheng like this, and used two infantry squadrons and an infantry artillery squad to test the determination of the Chinese army.

Whenever he discovers that the Chinese army's defense is not as resolute as fighting to the death, or that the counterattack firepower is no longer as ferocious as the Mouse Mountain, then he will choose to make a last ditch effort and use his current 2,000 men to drag the independent battalion to this mountain. district.

Even if the Sunzi soldiers from the 36th Infantry Brigade following behind had to crawl, it would take them two days to reach this battlefield.

Once the reinforcements arrive, he will still have the opportunity to completely annihilate this tenacious Chinese army, and may also reduce his responsibility for losing troops and generals.

The superior strategy is to suffer heavy losses but ultimately annihilate the enemy forces, or to preserve our strength and watch the Chinese move away.

But now, apparently, his calculations had failed again.

The whole army can only give up the fat they are about to get and leave here...

No matter how ferocious the Chinese are, the tactics of being surrounded on all sides will only scatter their troops, and their positions do not have the perfect fortifications of the old Mouse Mountain. Under an all-out assault, the defense line will be broken.

"Order, except for the two infantry squadrons left by the frontline troops to defend the defense line, the other infantry squadrons immediately turned south, gathered all infantry artillery and mountain artillery, and bombarded the Chinese positions blocking our army's advance. After conquering the enemy's positions with all their strength, the entire army moved towards March in the direction of Guangde, and order Osaka Orikawa to stay in place and block the area near the highway. Before rejoining the main force of our detachment, we are not allowed to rush deep into the mountains to look for Chinese troops to fight with them. "

When the whole army was given the order to break out, Kunizaki was as stunned as an old man who had just exhausted all his strength on the collapse, and sat on his armchair with an extremely ugly face.

The Japanese Army Major General knew that this military order meant that the Kunisaki detachment's laborious expedition spanning more than 2,000 kilometers had ended prematurely.

So far, except for the unlucky kid from the Sixth Division who was defeated at Matsue Castle, there is no Kunisaki detachment number in the tactics book of the Empire's Tenth Army.

The Imperial Army has regulations that a unit that loses 40% of its strength can basically be judged to have lost combat effectiveness.

The Kunisaki detachment, plus those damaged in the battle at Matsue City, has far exceeded this standard.

Faced with the sweet fruit of being able to conquer the city in the heart of China, members of the mighty Empire of Japan's "Steel Army" could only watch on the sidelines. How could this make Kunisaki so embarrassed?

But what made Kunisaki, who had gone through thousands of thoughts before finally making a final decision, was startled and vomited three liters of blood, was that he guessed wrong again.

Just when he sent the order to mobilize the army to start moving south, and the detachment headquarters and the two brigade headquarters all left to move to the front line, another news came from the front line.

"Your Excellency, detachment leader, although the Imperial Warriors suffered heavy losses in the first charge, under the cover of artillery, they charged again 15 minutes later. The Chinese could not match the bravery of the Imperial Warriors and abandoned the formation and fled! More than 300 Imperial Warriors have already Occupying two highlands will cover the departure of our entire army. May the empire's military fortunes be prosperous!" The captain's staff officer who rushed all the way happily reported to Kunizaki and spoke highly of the two infantry squadrons who bravely conquered the highlands.

Obviously, the captain's staff officer was happy from the inside out to leave unscathed.

So much so that he ignored the old face of the major general standing opposite him, whose face changed from white to green, then from green to purple, and finally from purple to black.

Really, with the speed at which he changes color, the famous face-changing skills of Sichuan Province can only be beaten.

"Your Excellency, Captain!"

"Your Excellency, detachment leader!" ...

There was a sound of exclamation, but it was the kind that watched helplessly as Kunizaki, who was already pale, was as stunned as a log, hit the mountain ground, and landed on his face.

It is said that middle-aged people have gone through the vicissitudes of life, and they are calm about pain and can face it calmly, but they can't stand it, two arms have been chopped off on their bodies. As a result, the opponent is not satisfied and almost left. At the end, he still Sprinkled salt on the wound.

Yes, the moment he knew that the two infantry squadrons organized a second charge and rushed to the high ground, Kunizaki knew that he had been tricked again, and was tricked by the cunning Chinese commander who never wanted to mention it again. The monkey is playing tricks.

What the hell, abandoning the formation and running away, that's a Chinese silver pewter gun tip, there's not much ammunition left to consume.

Even after the battle with Takeuchi Unzan, their troops suffered a lot of losses. Even the troops surrounded from four directions could not exceed 3,000 people!

After thinking about all this, Kunisaki suddenly wanted to give the order again, and the entire army returned to fight the Chinese. However, the army that had already started to move was spread over a square kilometer of the battlefield. How easy would it be to mobilize it?

What's more, almost without looking, Kunizaki knew that since the Chinese had seen that their own infantry was mobilizing, they would inevitably carry out tactical movements accordingly. It would probably be more difficult for the infantry who left the position to return to the trenches than when they left. many.

There was a sudden pain in his heart, and the Japanese army major general's vision went dark and he lost control of his body.

Before he fell into a coma, Kuniaki's mind miraculously contained a story from a Chinese novel.

It turns out that people can really be pissed off to death! Zhou Lang was not a narrow-minded person, but the guy named Zhuge was too annoying, just like the Chinese commander whose name he still didn't know.

As for the intelligence that the highest commander of the Chinese troops on the opposite side was Tang Dao, a young man in his early 20s who was promoted to colonel in the army because of his meritorious service in the Four Lines Battle, Kuniaki was determined not to believe it.

That guy must be an old fox, an old shady guy! He was vicious and ruthless

No wonder it is said that in one second, a person can almost recall his entire life in his mind?

Just when he fell down and broke his nose, Kuniaki had given Tang Dao a lot of labels.

Then, the Japanese Army Major General, who was dizzy due to angina pectoris, fainted happily, and was fainted by the pain of being hit on the face.

However, at least he no longer had to worry about whether to fight or retreat.

The supreme commander unexpectedly gave up his command by hitting his face on the ground. The stunned Lieutenant Colonel Chief of Staff of Kunisaki Detachment took over the supreme command. Seeing that his own Major General Detachment Commander was still alive, the Army Lieutenant Colonel was very sensible and implemented Kunisaki's previous strategy.

The whole army retreats!

The Japanese army ran away in disgrace.

This also stunned the Chinese soldiers who were sweating and digging fortifications seven or eight hundred meters away.

What's going on?

Why don't you fight?

I'm still feeling weak! Why are you more timid?

This person, who claims to be the intelligent creature at the top of the food chain, is actually a title given to himself by humans. To put it bluntly, he still can't escape the nature of animals.

Animals have animal nature.

Just like a wolf, the more afraid the prey is, the more they will attack. On the contrary, if they encounter a fearless person, even if it is just a badger that is much smaller than them, they will go up and do it regardless of anything. As long as they are not starving to death, they will basically give up this hunt.

The soldiers of the independent battalion are elite soldiers, but they are also human. Being human, they have animal nature.

"The Japanese don't want to be good! We can't let them run away, chase them!"

"Yes! Platoon leader, give the order! Chase them and kill them."

For a while, countless soldiers began to fight bravely.

"Fighting mud! All of you defend your positions for me, don't let the devils kill you back!" Qian Dazhu, who was always gentle, pointed at the noses of his three platoon leaders and cursed them with the occasional foul language of the Tang Dao.

He now figured out the meaning of the Tang Dao.

With the current momentum of the decisive battle, the main force of the Japanese army was scared away!

Still chasing them, do you really think that the more than 2,000 devils are made of mud! Didn't you see that they retreated in an orderly manner? It's not a rout.

Once they are beaten, they will come back. The 2nd and 4th companies are fully equipped with ammunition, but his 3rd company only has more than half of the previous one, not to mention other infantry companies.

Compared to the excited soldiers, the company commanders were relatively calm and ordered their soldiers not to move rashly.

It was not until more than an hour later that the Japanese army moved away and the 2nd and 4th companies reoccupied the high ground, and the soldiers and civilians of Qinglongling Village withdrew from the lonely ridge.

"This battle is over, all companies and units immediately return to the material storage area to assemble and hide!"

Tang Dao's military order was also passed to all units.

Without celebrating the victory, the entire army, including Leng Feng and Tong Yi's troops who came down from Qinglongling and all the villagers, quickly evacuated the battlefield.
