Deadly Assault, The Cannon Bombardment That Made Zhao Gang Despair
"Hit him, hit him hard, hit him accurately!”
"Let's go, brothers. The escape route is right in front of us. We have to break through this group of Japanese.”
Zhao Gang shouted until his voice was hoarse. The soldiers of the independent regiment had already lost their numbers.
Some of the injured soldiers were holding explosive bags and trying to blow up the Japanese's firing point.
However, before they could get close, they would be torn to pieces by the Japanese's concentrated firepower.
Zhao Gang's heart was broken.
He wasn't an inexperienced general. On the contrary, Zhao Gang was considered a qualified general.
However, he only passed.
Facing Nobutetsu Sakata's ambush, Zhao Gang was already panicking. He felt as if there was an invisible hand controlling him.
The vanguard army had been completely wiped out, and the five hundred brothers were sleeping on this land forever.
This was not the end. Before Zhao Gang could mourn for his brothers, the retreat route was once again cut off. Another 200 soldiers entered the enemy's ambush.
All of a sudden, cannons and machine guns fired. The powerful firepower left Zhao Gang with no other choice but to retreat.
Again and again, three and four times…
The enemy was obviously toying with the Independent Regiment. Zhao Gang understood this, but he was powerless to deal with it.
The Japanese had set up perfect fire traps in every direction. No matter how brave the soldiers of the Independent Regiment were, they could not break through the enemy's firepower. Everything was in vain.
Zhao Gang felt as if his heart was being cut by a knife. These soldiers had all died because of his incompetence.
He couldn't help but ask himself what would happen if Regiment Commander Li Yunlong led the team.
But there was no 'if'.
Zhao Gang, who knew that he was surrounded, understood how sinister the enemy was.
When they retreated to an open area, the exchange of fire stopped briefly.
Zhao Gang knew that this was the calm before the storm.
Zhao Gang laughed bitterly and said loudly,""Soldiers, I'm sorry, I've implicated you. As the saying goes, a useless general will tire the entire army to death. If Regiment Commander Li had led you, things wouldn't have turned out this way!”
The soldiers panted, not knowing how to respond.
"The enemy is powerful, and it seems like they have set up ambushes in all directions. I, Zhao Gang, know that I don't have the ability to break through the enemy's encirclement, but we can't just resign ourselves to death!”
" We still have hope. We still have Commander Jiang. I'm sure Commander Jiang is on his way here after hearing the news…"
Upon hearing Jiang Donglai's name, the soldiers 'eyes lit up with a strange light.
"That's right, we still have Commander Jiang!”
"As long as we hold on until Commander Jiang arrives, we will be saved!”
"Right, brothers, hold on!"
The soldiers encouraged each other.
Zhao Gang was surprised and confused.
These soldiers had never been to the battlefield with Jiang Donglai, yet they had such deep trust in him?
However…
"Soldiers, listen to me. We are not defending now, but breaking out of the encirclement!”
"As you can see, the terrain is so flat. If I'm not wrong, this is the cemetery that the Japanese chose for us!”
"They are planning to bombard us here. The best proof is that they have stopped firing!”
"We can't just sit here and wait for death. We have to break out!”
"Nearly half of our two thousand brothers have been killed. I don't have the face to face Commander Jiang anymore. Therefore, I want to find a group of brothers who will charge with me and tear open the encirclement in the direction of Zhao Family Valley to create a chance for the other brothers!”
The warriors were stunned.
"Political commissar…"
"Comrade Political Commissar, you don't have to do this!”
"That's right, comrade political commissar. At most, we'll fight the devils. Who's afraid of death?”
"Those who are afraid of death are raised by the devils. I already lost an arm, so why would I be afraid of dying with the devils?”
The warriors were excited.
It was a lie that he was not afraid of death.
Everyone was afraid of death!
However…
For his brothers, for his comrades, for his fellow countrymen, for victory…
They were willing to die!
Zhao Gang's eyes reddened." I know that you are all good people. I know that you are not afraid of death!"”
"But I'm afraid. I'm afraid that all of you will die here. If all of you die here, Commander Li won't forgive me when he comes back!”
"So, listen to my orders. Pick 200 brothers and break out of the encirclement with me. As long as we break through the encirclement, the others will immediately follow and break out of Zhao Family Valley with all their strength.”
"This is an order, do you hear me?”
"I heard it…"
Every soldier's eyes were red.
And when the next two hundred warriors volunteered to come out, everyone competed to be the first.
It was as if they were fighting for something good. Some people even started to fight.
This was death!
Zhao Gang cried as he nodded at the generals of his two hundred brothers.
"Brothers, have a safe journey!"
"Political Commissar Zhao, take care!"
"Salute!"
More than 1,000 soldiers saluted in unison!
They gritted their teeth and cried. They cursed the ancestors of the Japanese in their hearts, but their eyes were extremely gentle as they watched Zhao Gang leave with his men...
At this moment, flares flew into the sky one after another.
Zhao Gang's expression changed drastically as he shouted,""Quick, brothers, charge, charge!”
Two hundred people found the direction of Zhao Clan Valley and charged forward desperately.
On top of a mountain, Nobutetsu Sakata was holding a pair of binoculars and smiling as he looked at the valley under the illumination of the flare.
"Commander, these Chinese people seem to be planning to break out of the encirclement again.”A staff officer mocked.
Sakata Shingtsu chuckled." It's just a battle between trapped beasts. From the looks of it, they plan to use the vanguard as death warriors to tear open the encirclement?" How could it be that easy? Inform the rest to fire at them. First, cut off their follow-up troops from the vanguard. Then, fire at the Chinese soldiers behind them. I want that vanguard Chinese army to feel despair!”
"Honorable regiment commander.”
"Pass down the order, start firing…"
" Boom!" A series of intense explosions sounded, and orange flames soared into the sky.
Zhao Gang turned around in surprise and then screamed in despair,"No…"
The 200 vanguard soldiers turned around and looked at their brothers who had fallen into the sea of fire. Their eyes were bloodshot.
"Little Japanese, f * ck you…"
Under the cover of the artillery fire, the attack on the Japanese outpost leading to Zhao Jiayu seemed insignificant.
When Jiang Donglai cut a Japanese Machine Gunner into two, his eyes turned red as he looked at the artillery fire that was shooting into the sky.
"Little Japanese, I'll f * ck your ancestors!!!”
"Zhang Dabiao!"
"Yes!"
"Kill them for me, kill them all! Leave no one alive! I want you to turn into a human butcher and slaughter thousands of devils!”
"Yes, regiment commander, Zhang Dabiao is more than happy to do so!”
Under the night sky, two figures were leaping between the mountain ridges at high speed under the skyrocketing artillery fire…
