After a day and a night of continuous fighting, the Iron Blood Army was tired and their firepower had decreased greatly. Of course, the Japanese's charging speed was also reduced by more than ten times!
It was not that the Japanese could not run anymore, but there were too many corpses on the way. The thickest part was more than one meter, about a hundred meters away from the warehouse.
The cunning Japanese used the corpses of their companions to build a very thick fortification 100 meters away and began to shoot at the Iron Blood Army.
If they were to start a war of attrition and endurance, they would see who would be the first to collapse!
Liu Zhiguo's eyes turned red. The soldiers could take turns to rest for an hour, but he couldn't!
"Commander, you should rest for a while now. Don't worry, I'll keep an eye on it.”Zhu Zi advised.
"Okay, if there are any changes, remember to call me immediately. Also, the rotation would add an hour to the base of one hour, allowing the soldiers to sleep longer and recover better.”
After saying that, Liu Zhiguo took a gulp of water. He did not even move. He leaned against the wall and closed his eyes.
Liu Zhiguo had no idea that their day and night of fighting was very exciting. The people in the concession on the other side were also very excited!
The weak countrymen needed heroes to save them. At this moment, they seemed to see hope.
In the official residence of Nanjing, Old Jiang was reading today's newspaper, but he couldn't be happy. The dignified national army was actually suppressed by an unknown Iron Blood Army. How could he accept this!
Seeing that Old Jiang was unhappy, Yang Yongtai, as an aide, could not remain silent. He said,"Wei Zao, this Iron Blood Army is just a small group of bandits. Now, it's only a temporary benefit. The Japanese won't let them live for too long. You don't have to."
Old Jiang waved his hand and interrupted him." Yongtai, that's not what I'm worried about. As long as it's not the peasant party, I can accept any person or force." What I was thinking was that a small group of bandits who had adapted without authorization could fight so well, killing and injuring countless Japanese in a day! On the other hand, how much did our 700,000 soldiers achieve?”
Without comparison, there would be no harm. Old Jiang felt terrible.
"Your Excellency, you have fallen into a misunderstanding. Although the bandits have achieved great results by relying on the terrain that the Japanese fear, they can't compare to our army!”
This was indeed the case, but the people did not know. They only looked at who killed how many Japanese and who lost how much land.
At this moment, Mrs. Song came in with a cup of tea and smiled lightly." Darling, are you still worried about the report in the newspaper?”
"No, it's the change in the situation in Shanghai that worries me!”Old Jiang took the tea and took a sip." The intelligence shows that the Japanese are still planning to send more troops, and they have quite a number of troops.”
Mrs. Song didn't understand military affairs, so it was meaningless to tell her this. She was more concerned about fishing boats, so she suggested,"Darling, why don't you incorporate the Iron Blood Army into the national army system?”
Hmm?
Old Jiang had indeed thought about it before, but now that Madam mentioned it, his thoughts became active.
................
In Lan Yanzhi's residence in the International Settlement, Lan Yanzhi's delicate face looked a little haggard. Her big watery eyes were bloodshot, and she no longer had the seductive look she had in the past.
A man was in a war zone. As a woman, no matter how intelligent or talented she was, she could not help but be afraid. Blue Rouge was no exception! Although she knew that her man was still fighting and had a last resort to save his life, she still could not relax!
She really wanted to do something, but she also knew that she couldn't mess things up at this time.
"Yanzhi, it's time for lunch. Come down quickly.”
"Got it. Right away."
In the four-row warehouse, Liu Zhiguo had woken up two hours ago and was currently fighting.
The Japanese had suffered a lot of casualties, and the Iron Blood Army was not small either. After all, the two numbers could not be compared!
"No, shooting at each other is too disadvantageous for the Iron Blood Army. In just half a day, they have lost more than ten people. If this continues, they will have no one left!”
This kind of shooting situation had to end. Liu Zhiguo was prepared to use his final trump card.
"Zhu Zi, let the machine gunners go downstairs and use the anti-aircraft machine guns to destroy the Japanese's body cover.”
"Alright!"
Zhu Zi had long wanted to use those two big guys, but his commander had been hiding his strength. He wanted to save it for a big surprise for the Japanese in the future. Now, he had no choice but to show it in advance.
Not long after, the unique sound of the anti-aircraft machine gun rang out, and its power was immediately revealed. The Japanese's corpses were no different from paper!
The caliber of the anti-aircraft machine gun was 12.7mm, and the bullets were thicker than a thumb. It could even hit a Japanese tank, so how could a mere corpse block it?
"Baka, what happened?"
The Fukuoka United captain of the 114th United was furious, but at the same time, he was also very desperate. He had taken over the 56th United last night, and the little advantage he had built up with great difficulty was gone again!
"They're all evil foreigners. They sold weapons to the Chinese in various ways, causing the empire to suffer huge losses…Damn it, sooner or later, my Great XX Empire will destroy all of you.”
Oaths could not change the situation. The power of an anti-aircraft machine gun was too great, and it was even more terrifying when it hit people! If you hit the head, the legs, and the waist, the upper and lower body will be separated.
The scene was bloody and terrifying. Even the brainwashed Japanese felt their legs cramping!
At the back, Ushijima Sadao closed his eyes in pain. He knew that it was over. The 18th division had no chance of breaking through the Sihang warehouse.
"Oshima-kun, order the 144th regiment to withdraw. It's meaningless. The Chinese have endless weapons and ammunition.”
"Hey!"
..............
The battle lasted for more than 30 hours and ended with the Iron Blood Army's complete victory.
In the warehouse, Liu Zhiguo ordered the casualties to be counted. The soldiers who had died were cremated and stored in boxes. When they returned, they would be brought back together because they were the real heroes!
After counting, it was confirmed that 16 people had died in this battle and 22 people had been injured. Most of them had been shot through the shoulder blades on both sides, so it would not be difficult for them to recover.
It was always sad to have sacrifices, but the results they created were equally brilliant!
"After this battle, the Japanese will probably stop for a long time. So, everyone, wash up and change into clean clothes. We'll have a big meal later and sleep for two days.”
Because they could not go out, eating was the only way for the Iron Blood Army to celebrate.
The battlefield hadn't been cleaned yet? After more than 30 hours of high-intensity battle, the soldiers were tired, and they still had to clean up the chicken feathers!
The Japanese retreated, and the area fell silent again. There were endless cheers on the other side of the river, and the sound was louder than the last. Even the people in the warehouse were alarmed.
"Commander, the people in the concession are cheering for us. What should we do?”
Well, it was such a great opportunity to show off. It would be unreasonable if he didn't take advantage of it!
"Go, organize a platoon of brothers to go upstairs and stand on the opposite shore. Salute them from afar and publicize our Iron Blood Army.”
"Alright, look, I'm good at this.”
“....”
