It was eight o'clock in the morning, and the sky was already bright, but there was still a thin layer of smoke floating in the sky above Huainan.
The 9th division wanted to break through the 4th regiment and 1st regiment's formation, but the 4th regiment and 1st regiment had joined forces. The 2nd regiment had joined forces, so the 9th division could not break through.
Be it in terms of artillery or firepower, the 1st independent regiment was not inferior to the 9th division. In fact, it was even stronger than the 9th division. How could the 9th division break through?
As for the 13th division in Dong Jia Gang, they were in complete despair.
Now, his troops had been compressed into this area, and he still had more than 3,000 soldiers in his hands.
The remaining 6,000 to 7,000 people had all been used up in one night. Zhou Weiguo's Heavy Artillery Regiment had been using them as practice.
It was as if their artillery shells could not be used up, and they kept tilting the artillery shells at them.
Under the bombardment of the heavy artillery, the morale of the troops fell again and again.
He had already received news that the 65th Regiment had been taken out last night, and the reinforcement team had also been taken out. This morning, when it was almost dawn, another Chinese army joined the battle to surround and annihilate them.
Now, Dizhou Libing no longer had the dignity of a Japanese lieutenant general. His military uniform looked like it had been dragged out of a garbage dump.
He no longer had a command post. Last night, a heavy artillery shell landed next to his command post and overturned it.
Although he had successfully escaped, he also knew that he could not escape.
Huaxia's army had been fighting for an entire night, and so had his army.
Both sides were exhausted. At this time, it depended on whose tenacity was stronger.
"Akita-kun! He ordered the burning of the flags of the 104th Union and the 116th Regiment! We don't have a chance anymore!"
Listening to the gunshots, Dizhou Libing closed his eyes and said with difficulty.
"Your Excellency Major General! No! We still have 3,000 warriors. We still have a chance! We can still break out."
Akita cried out loudly.
"Chance? How can we still have a chance? Right now, many of our 3,000 soldiers are injured, and all of them are exhausted. They lack weapons and ammunition, and there are almost no logistics supplies. And listen to the cannon sounds outside.
The Chinese army is still firing at us warriors. Their cannons have been firing for the entire night! And this morning, they sent another troop to join our encirclement. Do you think we still have a chance? If we don't burn the flag and the incident at Wuji Village happens again, we will all be sinners of the empire!”
Di Zhou Li Bing held his sword and spoke in a low voice.
"Ha, I'll immediately order the army flag to be burned!”
Akita also knew that what Ojo Ribei said was true. Because their division was advancing too quickly, they didn't have much supplies. They had been fighting for a day and a night. Their weapons and ammunition had been exhausted, and their time was low. How could they continue fighting?
The heavy artillery shells of the Chinese army were fired at them as if they were free. Who could stand it?
It was useless even if they had the Bushido spirit. Your Bushido spirit would not be able to fight against the cannon. The dense barrage of heavy and light machine guns and ammunition had left them with no room for resistance.
Akita turned around to burn the flag, but Dizhou Libing looked to the east. He knew that the final moment was coming.
The Chinese army had been fighting for the entire night. When the sun was about to rise, the sound of the artillery fire had decreased for a while, but now, the intensity of the artillery fire had increased again. It was obvious that they were going to launch the final attack.
"Order all the warriors to immediately launch the Jade Shattering Battle. Even if we die, we must be loyal to His Majesty!”
Dizhou soldiers issued the final order to attack, and all the Japanese soldiers began to launch the final battle with the Type 38 rifles equipped with bayonet.
Zhou Weiguo had also given the order to annihilate the 13th Regiment immediately. Don't fight with them, just use bullets to solve the problem.
With submachine guns as the main force, light machine guns as support, and rifles as support, they quickly eliminated the last 3,000 Japanese troops.
Zhou Weiguo knew that after tonight's battle, these soldiers would become the most elite veterans. Zhou Weiguo did not want to lose these elites here, nor did he want to use these soon-to-be elite soldiers to fight with the Japanese.
Why use a bayonet when you can solve a problem with bullets?
On the battlefield, the Japanese soldiers fell one after another, but the soldiers in Dizhou didn't care.
He was kneeling on the ground, wiping his katana with a white towel. There was no expression on his face.、
Akita, who was standing next to him, knew what he was doing from his actions, but he didn't stop him.
He knew that Dizhou Libing was from a Japanese noble family, not one of those merchant families or the peddlers of the 4th division.
He would never let the Chinese army capture him, because it would bring shame to his family.
"Akita-kun! You should leave too! If you can escape, then escape!"
Dizhou Libing said softly as he repeatedly wiped his samurai sword.
"Ha ~ Yi ~"
He left under Akita's name, but he didn't go for a trap. Instead, he went for a harakiri.
Dizhou Libing wiped his samurai sword as he recalled everything that had happened in the past.
From the time he could remember, his mother, his father, his family, and his wife.
In the end, his mind was fixed on the first day he entered the military academy. His instructor had asked them to take an oath!
"I will never suffer the shame of being captured alive. I will take out the loyalty of my soul and die calmly according to the principle of eternal life!”
A smile appeared on his face. Then, the Bushido suddenly stabbed into his abdomen. His face turned red as if he was holding his breath.
Feeling the pain in his lower abdomen, he endured the pain and pulled his katana horizontally.
.
The cold, moist wind blew against Zhou Weiguo's face. Zhou Weiguo's face was tired from not sleeping for a night. His eyes were bloodshot, but he was in good spirits.
The 13th division, the executioner division in history, the executioner who had caused that tragedy, he had finally been executed.
At the same time, Zhou Weiguo also knew that because of him, other than the 114th division, the other divisions of the Japanese army had all withdrawn from Nanjing and came to surround him.
This was a telegram sent to him by the chairman. The chairman hoped that Zhou Weiguo could withdraw from Huainan. The chairman didn't want Zhou Weiguo to lose his life here. To the chairman, people like Zhou Weiguo, who came from the Central Military Academy and had studied in Germany and was his student, were the most reliable. Most importantly, their abilities were second to none. He was not prepared to waste a general with such potential here.
However, Zhou Weiguo refused. He had repeatedly studied the territory before. The Lianghuai area was a good place for him to develop. He did not plan to leave this place.
......
"Weiguo! Look, this is a general's sword. I guess it's the commander's sword of the 13th Division of the Japanese army!”
He Yuchen walked over from afar and handed the commanding knife in her hand to Zhou Weiguo.# Daguan Review Passed: Daguan Time:042020185:17PM
