A hand-to-hand battle was more about fighting with blood, fighting with which side had more people.
In terms of numbers, including the guard company and the reconnaissance company, there were about 1,500 people. Excluding the injured and those who died in battle, there were still nearly 1,300 people. They had a huge advantage against the 300-plus Japanese.
The advantage of four to one was the capital for Su Qi to change his mind at the last minute and let the Sichuan Army and the Japanese fight hand-to-hand.
The best way to make up for the difference in military quality was to engage in close combat. Usually, after a battle, only the elites remained. Even if there were injuries, they would be the treasures of the various troops when they recovered.
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
"Kill!"
With the appearance of the charging horn, the entire regiment of more than a thousand people raised their guns and charged at the Japanese.
"Little Japanese, Grandpa is here to send you home.”
As the regiment commander, Su Qi did not go back on his word. He took the lead and rushed to the front of the team with his rifle. On both sides, there were guards protecting him tightly.
Seeing their regiment commander take the lead, the soldiers of the Sichuan Regiment behind them cried out. The two sides were only a few dozen meters apart, and those who were fast arrived in a few seconds.
Tachibana Norio had never expected that these people would engage in a hand-to-hand battle while having the advantage.
"Remove the bullets and fix the bayonet. "When he saw the enemy charging at him, Tachibana, who had been brainwashed by the Bushido, immediately ordered everyone to withdraw their bullets and fix their bayonet.
The Tachibana Battalion was no match for the ferocious Chuan Legion. Often, a Japanese soldier would be surrounded by three or four Chuan Legion soldiers.
He dodged the front of the bayonet, but was stabbed by the back of the bayonet. Then, four or five bayonet stabbed into his chest, and he died with grievances.
"Young people don't care about martial arts!"
For a moment, the screams of the Japanese soldiers echoed in the mountains.
At this moment, Noorio Tachibana stared at Su Qi. Seeing the man with the rank of lieutenant colonel surrounded by the crowd, Noorio Tachibana spoke in broken Mandarin.
"Yours, a duel?"
Su Qi had been looking for Nozomi Tachibana the whole time, and she happened to see him pointing at her with a vicious look in his eyes.
"Come." Su Qi curled his finger and pushed away the people around him as he said disdainfully.
" Baka..." Tachibana brandished his commanding sword and screamed as he charged toward Su Qi.
Bang!
A gunshot rang out. Tachibana looked at his chest with a blank expression.
" You…Baka…Don't talk about martial ethics…" After saying that, dozens of bullets came at him, instantly turning him into a sieve.
"Why are you talking to animals about martial arts?" Su Qi muttered. He had never trained in killing techniques. Wouldn't he be a fool to fight him with a bayonet?
"Pass down my order, quickly finish off the remaining Japanese troops.”
"Yes, sir!"
Half an hour later, not a single Japanese soldier was left alive on the battlefield.
This was a real bloody battle!
It was also a battle for the Chuan Legion to prove themselves!
The Chuan Legion finally won and became the force that killed the Japanese on this land.
"You are worthy of the name of the Chuan Legion. You have used your blood to prove that the Chuan Legion is a trump card and an elite.”
"From now on, the Chuan Corps will be proud of you.”
"This battle is enough to be recorded in history!"
"Everyone, you are all heroes! Hooray!“
"Hooray!"
"Hooray!"
After a bloody battle, the Chuan Legion had been completely reborn. All of their original thoughts and schemes had completely disappeared after this bloody battle. Everyone was proud of the Chuan Legion.
This bloody battle, along with the spread of the fleeing Japanese soldiers, shocked the entire war zone and even alarmed Stilwell.
When the news of victory reached Novitz Airport, everyone was extremely excited and couldn't calm down for a long time.
With more than 1,000 people fighting against more than 1,000 Japanese troops, killing the captain Tachibana and eliminating nearly 1,000 Japanese troops, such huge news made the people who were building the new city extremely excited.
It had been a long time since they had heard any news of victory. Before this, they had always heard of defeat, escape, and retreat. The occasional news of victory had only been exchanged for huge casualties.
A direct confrontation like this, with more than a hundred casualties, killing a thousand Japanese soldiers, this kind of victory had never happened before.
In an instant, Su Qi's prestige in everyone's hearts rose, and he became a great hero in the hearts of the common people.
This kind of exciting news often spread several times faster than usual. Not long after, the surrounding commoners knew about it, and many people who couldn't live anymore came to seek refuge.
Not only that, some of the scattered soldiers of the expeditionary army also gathered at the airport after receiving the news. After all, it was better to follow a commander who could win a battle than to follow a commander who would lead them to death.
After the battle, the commoners took the initiative to help treat the wounded and transport the corpses of the fallen soldiers back to the camp. At the same time, they cleaned up the supplies on the battlefield and so on.
On the second day after the battle, Su Qi went to the wounded soldiers 'camp to visit the wounded soldiers.
"How is it? Does it still hurt?" Su Qi looked at a soldier who had been stabbed in the back by a Japanese soldier.
"It doesn't hurt, regiment commander. When I recover, I still have to go to the battlefield to kill the Japanese. This time, I killed two Japanese.”The soldier grinned.
"Alright, recuperate well. When your injuries are healed, I'll marry you a wife.”Su Qi had originally planned to hold a matchmaking event in the military, but the conditions were not ripe at that time.
The Sichuan Army was not united enough, and they did not have any outstanding achievements. Even if he held a date festival, there would probably not be many people attending.
However, it was different now. The bloody battle had let the people know that the Chuan Legion was the one protecting them. There would definitely be more people coming to participate.
"Really, Guild Leader?" The soldier was so excited that he almost broke his string.
"Of course, when have I ever lied to you?”Su Qi smiled and said,"When you recover, I'll get you a wife and a house."”
The first phase of the building was almost completed and was about to reach the top. After all, it was only six stories high and did not require much technology. Especially when it was three shifts, the efficiency was very high.
After visiting the wounded soldiers, Su Qi instructed them to use the best medicine to ensure that every wounded soldier would be as good as new.
After leaving the casualty camp, Su Qi sighed and looked at the cemetery in the distance. There were more than a hundred soldiers who had died there.
"That's annoying. Find a mortician to put on makeup for the sacrificed soldiers. Also, there's a batch of high-quality coffins in the warehouse.”
"Three days later, the memorial ceremony will be held. Everyone must be present.“
"Yes, regiment commander!"
