Chapter 851 Raging Tide
The 98th Chinese Division had the advantage of terrain, which meant that most of its body was hiding in the trenches. In addition, it had more soldiers than the Li Qingshan Brigade, and its weapons were not at a disadvantage.
Although the Li Qingshan Brigade fought hard, the 98th Division also fought hard at the critical moment of life and death.
Therefore, although the battle between the two sides was very tragic, the 98th Division still had a great advantage.
Seeing this, Shigeto Chiaki was furious.
Without hesitation, Shigeto Chiaki ordered a brigade to set off immediately and attack the 98th Division.
It must be said that the source of soldiers of Shigeto's detachment came from colonies that had been occupied by the devils for decades.
According to the nature of the island country, every time a colony is occupied, various brainwashing work will be carried out immediately.
After decades of fancy brainwashing work, the devils have achieved very good results.
Most of these people agree on one thing, that they are islanders.
The most important thing is that they all believe that they must be loyal to the emperor like the devils.
And the Chinese are their natural enemies!
Seeing their performance, all the big devils were happy.
For this reason, under the order of the big devils, these traitors, like the devils, had to go through cruel recruit training.
That's not all. After they finished the recruit period, the big devils would equip them with various advanced weapons and supplies according to the standards of the devils.
Take the Shigeto Detachment as an example. As a traitor unit at the level of an independent brigade, it actually has two infantry regiments, two artillery regiments, and other affiliated units.
On the other hand, the Li Qingshan Brigade, formerly the Chinese troops, is far inferior in terms of training level and diet.
Therefore, the Li Qingshan Brigade was used as cannon fodder by Shigeto Chiaki because of its poor combat effectiveness.
In other words, even if the Li Qingshan Brigade was annihilated by the 98th Chinese Division and no one survived, Shigeto Chiaki would not feel bad.
The most important thing is that even if this result occurs, Shigeto Chiaki will not be punished by his superiors.
Yes, you can't find a three-legged toad, but there are many people with two legs!
In other words, China is not short of traitors.
Whenever a little bit of leftovers is thrown out, there will be countless traitors rushing to grab them.
Of course, all the devils are very happy to see these situations.
However, while they are happy to see them, they are increasingly looking down on the Chinese.
In fact, Shigeto Chiaki's anger is not without reason.
On the one hand, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army came.
Before we found their whereabouts, our mountain artillery regiment was destroyed.
On the other hand, we lost so many troops, especially the artillery that was regarded as the lifeblood by the Army Department. Shigeto Chiaki was in danger of being punished by his superiors.
Therefore, Shigeto Chiaki had a small goal.
It was very simple, that is, to annihilate the 98th Division first.
Then, when we have time, we will work with the Tieshi Independent Detachment and the First Artillery Regiment to deal with the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army.
In this way, the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army will definitely not be able to escape!
As long as the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army can be annihilated, especially if the Judge of Death can be killed, Shigeto Chiaki will not only not be punished by his superiors, but will also be promoted.
For this reason, Shigeto Chiaki is particularly anxious.
Yes, just like money, it is better to put it in your pocket.
Only when the Anti-Japanese National Salvation Army is annihilated, can Shigeto Chiaki breathe a sigh of relief.
Before that, he must have been in a state of fear.
As soon as they received Shigeto Chiaki's order, the 1,100 traitors of this brigade immediately began to charge.
Because they are well-trained and their nutrition can be guaranteed, these 1,100 traitors, one by one, rushed towards the 98th Division of Huaxia like crazy, like arrows from a bow.
It must be said that the charge of these traitors is very different from that of Li Qingshan's brigade.
At a glance, the level of these traitors is more than one level higher than that of Li Qingshan's brigade.
At this moment, these 1,100 traitors, all crouched, followed the attack formation, and quickly approached the front.
That's not all. While charging quickly, they did not forget to cooperate with each other and provide protection to each other.
Very easily, these traitors approached Li Qingshan's brigade and continued to move forward.
The rhythm was driven, and Li Qingshan's brigade was very unconvinced.
Therefore, they automatically ignored the attack from the 98th Division of Huaxia, and they all accelerated.
On the other side, Lieutenant General Xia Chu was leading his troops to fight with Li Qingshan's brigade. Suddenly, his brows were wrinkled.
Yes, he was the commander-in-chief. In addition to setting an example and participating in the firing, he was also responsible for arranging the troops.
A traitor brigade also joined the battle.
The most important thing is that the combat effectiveness of this traitor brigade is definitely not weaker than that of the devils.
Could it be that the last moment has come like this?
With a frown, Lieutenant General Xia Chu had to prepare for the worst.
As a national hero, Lieutenant General Xia Chu has participated in so many battles with the Japanese, and he is very familiar with the Japanese's offensive routine.
According to the Japanese's offensive routine, after the artillery bombardment, the next step is the infantry charge.
Once the infantry charge does not achieve the expected effect, the Japanese will definitely withdraw the infantry immediately and bombard again.
Then, the Japanese will send infantry to charge again.
This cycle repeats, and if it doesn't work, the Japanese will call in aircraft bombing!
That is to say, even if we can severely damage this new traitor brigade, our lives will definitely enter the countdown.
The wind is whistling and the Yishui River is cold, and the warriors will never return once they leave!
Loyal bones are buried everywhere in the green mountains, why should we return wrapped in horsehide! ?
Thinking of these two famous sayings, General Xia Chu took a deep breath.
"Hu..."
Then, turning his head to look at the soldiers and officers around him, General Xia Chu shouted.
"Brothers, the last moment has come, sing the Huangpu Army Song with me!"
"Good!"
What made General Xia Chu feel good was that as soon as he finished speaking, he played a wave of one call and a hundred responses.
Naturally, the majestic Huangpu Army Song resounded throughout the battlefield filled with gunpowder.
"The angry tide is surging, the party flag is flying..."
As the first graduate of Huangpu, General Xia Chu sang this military song with the soldiers, and he was overwhelmed with emotions.
General Xia Chu knew that if there was no accident, this would definitely be the last time he sang this song.
For this reason, while not delaying the firing at the traitors, he roared with all his might.
The rhythm was driven, and for a moment, the crowd was excited.
At this moment, all the soldiers stared with their eyes wide open, aiming at the densely packed traitors in front of them, and exerted their combat effectiveness to the peak state.
Even the lightly wounded, including the seriously wounded who could still move, spontaneously picked up their guns.
Of course, the stretcher team and other logistics personnel were also doing similar work.
Yes, it's time to pull a traitor to take the blame.
If you can pull more than two scapegoats, it would be even better!
For a moment, the battle entered a white-hot stage and intensified.
On the other side, unwilling to bear this passive situation, both the Li Qingshan Brigade and the infantry battalion of the Shigeto Detachment also spontaneously increased their offensive.
