Ushijima Sadao's eyes were a little dazed. Now that he could not even count on the tank troops, what else could he count on? Could it be that he wanted to imitate the human flesh tactics of Namu Xidian during the Russo-Japanese War? Just thinking about that scene made him feel terrified, because he was one of them back then, one of the dead who survived by luck!
Wandering, hesitating, unable to make up his mind. Fortunately, his chief of staff walked in at this time, allowing him to find some light.
"Oshima, you fainted from the shock. How do you feel now?”
"Many thanks for Major General's concern, I'm fine now.”As he spoke, Oshima said worriedly,""Major General, I've already heard that China has very advanced anti-tank weapons, causing the tanks to be unable to assist the infantry in attacking!”
" Yes." Ushijima Sadao nodded." Now that our division is back to square one, we only have one problem. How do we take down the Sihang Warehouse and threaten the right wing of the national army?" Oshima-kun, do you have any new ideas? I need your advice now."”
Combined with today's on-the-spot inspection, Oshima thought about it seriously and said,""I think that attacking by force is the worst option. The losses are incalculable, so I won't consider it until the end. First, I think we can send out a squadron to sneak into the water at night and sneak up from behind Si Xing's warehouse. Then, we can blow up the door and attack. The second was to dig a tunnel, but this was very difficult because there was a network of water under the sea. It was possible to dig a few meters out of the water!”
Although digging a tunnel was a good idea, it was not feasible due to the geographical restrictions.
He had no choice but to choose the first option. If it didn't work, he could only attack forcefully.
At night, the four warehouses were quiet, not even the sound of birds chirping.
In the water, a squadron of Japanese managed to swim to the shore behind the warehouse from somewhere else. They were less than ten meters away from the warehouse, which was also the closest they had ever been to the warehouse. It was not easy!
With the help of the moonlight, the commander gestured in the water for a while, indicating that they should go ashore quietly without making any noise.
The Japanese began to come ashore one by one. However, before the fifth Japanese came up, the first Japanese stepped on a mine and came up to the sky with a bang!
The sound of the explosion alarmed the soldiers on duty and also woke up all the sleeping Iron Blood Army.
"Baka, we've been exposed.”
It was obvious that the Japanese were not as fast as the Iron Blood Army. In less than ten seconds, the Iron Blood Army began to fire at the Japanese until they did not dare to come out of the water.
"Da da da"
"Commander, the bullet's kinetic energy will decrease when it hits the water. What if the Japanese don't come out?”
Zhu Zi was very anxious. This damn Japanese had already reached his back. If the commander had not set up countless mines in advance, he might have succeeded!
Liu Zhiguo's face was also gloomy. He did bury the mines to prevent the Japanese from attacking him, but he did not expect the Japanese to think of it so quickly! Who was the one who said that the Japanese were all one-track minded? Come out and I guarantee that I won't kill you.
"There's no hurry. How long can they hold it in? Take the second and third platoons to the front, in case the Japanese suddenly attack.”
With two or three platoons missing, the firepower density was reduced by half. However, the Japanese still did not dare to come out. Occasionally, a few corpses would float up.
Seeing that there was no chance, the Japanese underwater had no choice but to retreat because their breathing time was almost up!
Although the crisis was easily resolved, it sounded an alarm for Liu Zhiguo. He must not underestimate the Japanese of this era.
..............
The next morning, the eyes of the sleepless Sadao were red. He had exhausted all his methods and could only make one last attempt.
"Guards, pass on my order immediately. Everyone will have an extra meal today according to the highest standard.”
As soon as the guards left, Oshima came in. He looked similar to Yoshishima Sadao. The two of them were really a pair of brothers in distress!
"Regiment Commander, I have already made a detailed report of the situation here and am preparing to send it to the dispatched army.”
"No need, just send it directly." Ushishima Sadao waved his hand." Oshima-kun, we can only say that our division is unlucky to have encountered such a steel fortress in such a special location!”
"Yes, but don't make a decision so easily. It's not too late to make a decision after seeing how the dispatched army recovers.”
"Then hurry up. I'm preparing to attack at seven o'clock.”
Taking a piece of white cloth, Ushishima Sadao wiped the blade. Seeing this, Oshima turned around and left.
Time flew by, and soon it was almost seven o'clock. The dispatched army still did not call back. Oshima was waiting anxiously!
At 7:00 p. m., the troops assembled as usual. Ushijima Sadao once again appeared at the location where he had been bombarded yesterday.
"Warriors of the Empire, it's time for you to pledge your loyalty to the Emperor. I order the 56th regiment to attack immediately. Remember to be quick and not give the Chinese soldiers a chance to breathe.”
The Kurumi Regiment received the order and immediately went into attack mode. At the same time, the Mountain Cannon Regiment's 36 Mountain Cannons opened fire at full force.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
With a loud roar, the Japanese's human wave tactic began.
In the warehouse, Liu Zhiguo had already led everyone to prepare because he knew that the Japanese were at their craziest moment.
"Brothers, remember this. Your vision is bad, and it's very choking. If you can't take it anymore, quickly put on your gas masks. If the Japanese rush within 50 meters, throw the grenades at them. Don't save them. There are plenty of them!”
Just like last time, they would shoot when the Japanese were 200 meters away.
"Da da da…"
"Tututu…"
"Bang bang bang…"
Gunshots rang out, and bullets rained down, especially the MG34 general machine gun, which was known as the 'Hitler' chainsaw. The 150-round drum was super cool to use!
The Japanese didn't care about any tactics at this moment. The area was narrow and useless! Now, they had to bend down and charge forward, the faster the better. As long as one of them charged through the warehouse door, this tiger that was obstructing the division's advance would be broken!
However, reality was cruel. When they finally reached the 50-meter range of the warehouse after countless sacrifices, a wave of hands and lightning suddenly came, and they were immediately blown into chaos.
This situation caused the Tsujishima Sadao, who was watching from the back, to look up at the sky. It wasn't that the soldiers weren't brave, but that the defending forces were too powerful and had an inexhaustible amount of ammunition!
The sky was dark, but the battle still did not stop. Even Liu Zhiguo could not stand it anymore, let alone the soldiers. But the Japanese didn't give him any time to rest. What should he do?
Fortunately, Liu Zhiguo also saw that the Japanese were tired and their charging state had decreased a lot. Therefore, he boldly decided to rest and eat from the first row. They would take turns every hour.
Although it was only an hour, it was really necessary for the soldiers whose bodies were starting to stiffen!
Just like that, they fought from night to dawn. Even so, the Japanese still risked their lives and rushed to the warehouse, even though they never successfully touched the door that was so close yet so far away.
