Chapter 169 Weapon Support
Chapter 169 Weapon Support
On the battlefield, under the personal supervision of the brigade commander Yoshiyoshi Akiyama, the Japanese soldiers went crazy.
The wave-like attacks caused the entire Chunhua Town's east, west and north defense lines to fall into the hands of the Japanese several times.
Fortunately, the soldiers of the 51st Division were united and, with their spirit of fearlessness and sacrifice, they drove the Japanese out.
The one who was really at ease was in the south where Gu Changfeng was. After a few hours, the Japanese left only a pile of corpses.
At this time, the Japanese were repelled again. Huang Zhengkui was not idle either. He immediately asked the soldiers to go up and pick up weapons and ammunition, and cooperated with the Japanese very tacitly.
"Changfeng, Commander Wang is having a tough time. Should we provide him with support?"
Zhao Ziqing walked up to Gu Changfeng and asked.
Although Wang Yaowu did not ask for help, even he could not bear to hear about the level of tragedy.
Especially when the soldiers of the 51st Division recaptured the position, you didn't need to watch, just listen to know how much the 51st Division paid.
"Let Li Jie and Captain Lu come over!" Gu Changfeng ordered the soldiers next to him.
On the southern battlefield, the Japanese were completely suppressed in firepower, so their attacks were not very fierce. On the contrary, the rocket launcher platoon and artillery company did not make many moves.
However, Wang Yaowu didn't say anything before, and he didn't care about the battles on those sides.
After all, he was still an outsider to the 51st Division, and he couldn't guarantee whether others would have any thoughts if he told them.
Zhao Ziqing nodded, in fact, that was what he meant.
Instead of staying here and watching the show, it is better to go and support the battles on several fronts, at least to prevent fewer people from dying.
The two men quickly came in front of Gu Changfeng, and Gu Changfeng gave direct orders.
"Lao Lu, Li Jie, the two of you lead your troops directly to support the 51st Division."
"Attack wherever there's a crisis. Watch out for the artillery shells. We'll evacuate at 6 a.m."
"Yes."
The two agreed in unison, and then Lu Daya hesitated and said.
"Changfeng, the 150-caliber grenades have been used up. This matter..."
Gu Changfeng waved his hand and said, "Don't worry about it. The Japs don't know whether we have artillery shells or not, so they won't dare to move."
He did hear Wang Yaowu talk about this matter. There were a total of 14 shells left in the German heavy artillery, and they were all used up during the crisis in the afternoon.
It can be said that now that all the cards have been played, there is almost nothing that can threaten the Japanese.
Of course, the system doesn’t count.
If he were really exposed, he could immediately produce a large number of Katyusha shells, which would be enough to destroy all the Japanese in Chunhua Town.
Lu Daya grinned and said, "I mean, we should come back and do something. We're almost out of our trump cards!"
"That's no problem. I estimate a batch will arrive tomorrow." Gu Changfeng agreed directly.
The battle will be even more brutal next time, I will definitely have to go and exchange it tomorrow!
He said this as a matter of course, and when the people nearby heard this, they all grinned with joy.
We are all used to winning battles, and only with artillery shells can we have confidence.
"Old Huang, how many heavy machine guns have you got?"
Gu Changfeng just happened to see Huang Zhengkui coming over and asked.
Speaking of this, Huang Zhengkui was very happy. With snipers from each company, the Japanese had few chances to destroy their weapons.
"About 800 Japanese soldiers were killed, and we seized 12 heavy machine guns, 28 Type rifles, and a large number of grenades and bullets."
He was not willing to talk about the Type 38 rifle. They really had no shortage of weapons, and he would not even pick up many weapons that were of slightly lower quality.
When Gu Changfeng heard the data, he was not surprised and said after thinking about it.
"Well, divide up all the spoils and give them all to the 51st Division later. We don't need so much!"
Then he ordered the soldiers to call Wang Yaowu.
If they break out in the early morning, with a large amount of weapons and ammunition, it will be a pointless breakout.
It would be better to hand it over to the 51st Division. While doing a favor, you can also kill more Japanese devils. It's worth it.
Huang Zhengkui didn't care. From Dachang to Jinling, his weapons became stronger and stronger, so he really looked down on these things.
Of course, the Type 99 rifle is still easy to use, but since Gu Changfeng said so, he definitely has no objection.
Soon, Wang Yaowu, who received the notice, ran over with his guard company and looked at the weapons prepared on the ground.
He immediately looked happy and patted Gu Changfeng on the shoulder and said.
"You're really good, you actually seized so many weapons and ammunition. I'm grateful to you, brother."
"It just so happens that the battles under my command are really tough. With these weapons, everyone will have a better time."
The Japanese's frantic counterattack for several hours caused the casualties of his subordinates to increase again.
To be honest, he wanted to evacuate early.
Gu Changfeng said calmly: "These are all trivial matters. We devils are just here to deliver weapons."
"It just so happens that you guys are having a hard time, so I'll leave it all to you."
Such awesome words made Wang Yaowu burst out laughing, and he was also quite envious.
Who doesn’t want to fight the Japanese like this?
The problem is that Wang Yaowu doesn't have the confidence. He still hasn't figured out where Gu Changfeng's weapons came from.
"Guard Company, move out and assign them to the various regiments."
Wang Yaowu did not hesitate. The Japanese attack had paused for a while, and who knew when it would start again.
Since Gu Changfeng is providing weapons and ammunition, we should prepare them early. Now is not the time to be polite.
"By the way, Commander Wang, I just ordered the artillery company and rocket launchers to support you. If you need anything, please notify me."
Gu Changfeng gave some instructions. After all, it was impossible for two people to take care of all three sides, so the front line must be the one that knows the most!
"Haha, you are quite nice." Wang Yaowu was very satisfied with the excellent service.
Two o'clock in the morning.
At the temporary Japanese command center, Yoshizumi Ryosuke was no longer in the mood to be angry. He looked at his officers and spoke slowly.
"My lords, the honor of the empire has been lost in our hands."
As soon as he said this, the Japanese officers in the command center were immediately filled with shame.
The casualties from several hours of fighting were greater than those from an entire afternoon, something most of them had never encountered on the Chinese battlefield.
Akiyama Yoshiyoshi naturally pretended not to hear. He suffered even greater losses in the afternoon, so what could he say?
Yoshizumi Ryosuke looked at everyone's expressions, nodded slightly, and then continued.
"Failure is not terrible. What you lost can be regained. Do you understand?"
Yoshizumi Ryosuke really had no other choice but to motivate in this way.
Of course, he definitely still has some trump cards. Hundreds of tanks are being mobilized, and some mountain artillery and field artillery have not been moved. He is still waiting for an opportunity.
When the Japanese officers heard what the division commander said, they could only bow collectively and shout in unison.
"Hey! Your Excellency, Division Commander, I will definitely capture Chunhua Town and eliminate the Chinese inside."
The shame is real, the loss is real, and the desire for revenge is real.
At this time, Yoshizumi Ryosuke successfully ignited the anger in the hearts of the Japanese officers.
The battle started again, and this time the Japanese attack was even more frenzied.
All the remaining 5000-plus men from the Akiyama Brigade Headquarters went into battle, plus the rest of the division's forces as a reserve.
It can be said that Akiyama Yoshitomo has played all his cards this time. If he fails, he will die. He has no way out.
"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"
At the command of the Japanese officers, the Japanese soldiers stepped into their positions again, and the sound of gunfire instantly resounded throughout the battlefield.
