When the Japanese Infantry 19th Regiment Commander saw the three captains, he ran out of the command center in a panic.
The Japanese Infantry 18th Brigade had two Infantry Regiments, the 19th Infantry Regiments and the 36th Infantry Regiments.
Seeing Shusan covering his mouth and nose, he shouted,""Hurry up! Give out the gas masks."
The best way to deal with poisonous gas was to wear a gas mask. As long as the gas mask was worn in time, it could effectively resist the poison gas.
The Japanese were also equipped with gas masks, which was also the standard configuration of the Japanese.
However, the Japanese didn't usually give gas masks to individuals. If they were distributed to the Japanese soldiers, it would increase the burden on the soldiers. These things were rarely used, so the Japanese didn't distribute them to individuals. Instead, they were kept by the supply troops.
Every Japanese infantry unit had their own supply squadron. They would only distribute the gas masks when they needed them.
Because the Chinese army was not equipped with poisonous gas, the Japanese had the final say when to use the gas and when to use the gas masks.
Therefore, when he needed to use it, he could give it out temporarily.
However, the 19th regiment in Li Village, which was more than ten miles away, did not distribute the gas masks.
However, these Japanese never expected that the Chinese army would actually use poison gas bombs on them.
Faced with the sudden attack of the poisonous gas, the Japanese immediately fell into chaos.
When they saw the three great officers, they quickly ordered the supply troops to distribute the gas masks.
This was because the sarin gas that Zhang Hongsheng used this time was very toxic. A small amount of it could kill a person, and the poison took effect very quickly.
Moreover, this poisonous gas did not only poison people through breathing. It could also invade the human body through skin contact and poison people.
As for simply covering his mouth and nose with a wet towel, it was useless. At most, he would inhale less, and his exposed skin would also be poisoned if it came into contact with the poisonous gas.
Sarin gas, the poison took effect very quickly.
As a result, many Japanese people did not even have time to put on their gas masks before the poison started to take effect.
One by one, the Japanese fell into the poisonous gas, and miserable screams rose and fell.
Many Japanese who did not get gas masks in time and covered their mouths and noses with wet towels were not spared. One by one, the poison spread to the end and they died in extreme pain. Of course, these Japanese deserved it.
At this moment, in the Li Village, the soldiers had already put on their protective clothing and gas masks.
" Attack immediately!" Zhang Hongsheng ordered loudly." Destroy these Japanese!"”
Following Zhang Hongsheng's order, the soldiers immediately launched an all-out attack.
The 12 tanks of the Tank Company took the lead and charged out of the formation.
About 2,000 infantrymen followed closely behind. They attacked from different directions at the same time and charged at the Japanese camp outside Li Jia Village.
The brave soldiers rushed to the Japanese's position like a rolling wave.
At this moment, the Japanese suffered heavy casualties. Many of the surviving Japanese were poisoned and could not organize an effective resistance.
"Da da da!"
The dense gunfire continued to ring out, and the Japanese who were running around were killed one by one by the Chinese soldiers.
The 19th Infantry Regiment around Li Village and the 18th Infantry Brigade had a total of more than 4,000 people.
In a short period of time, they were completely defeated by Zhang Hongsheng, and more than 3,000 Japanese were killed.
The 19th Infantry Regiment was basically wiped out, and the three generals were also killed in the fierce battle.
Only a few of the devils on the periphery escaped in the chaos.
Zhang Hongsheng ordered loudly," Order all the troops to continue advancing towards Huaqiao Town. Attack the main forces of the Japanese from behind. We must take this opportunity to defeat them in one fell swoop."”
"Yes, sir!"
In this way, after Zhang Hongsheng and the others destroyed the 19th regiment, they had infiltrated the main force of the Japanese's 9th division.
This battle caused the situation on the battlefield to change drastically.
