Chapter 155 Battle of Souls

Perhaps, only Colonel James, who has not yet fully understood the Chinese, finds it difficult to understand this scene.

Even his commander's words, which are so philosophical and thought-provoking, were not heard by him.

With his pure Western thinking, he really couldn't understand why the Chinese defenders in the warehouse chose to solve this crisis with such a purely cold weapon method.

In his opinion, the Chinese themselves do not have enough troops, so they should conserve their troops. Moreover, they have excellent German-made continuous-fire firearms such as MG34 and MP28. They can completely rely on some remaining fortifications on the first floor to kill the Japanese infantry who are rushing over but not many in number.

In that way, the casualties will be much less, and no matter how bad it is, it will not be greater than the stupid hand-to-hand combat with pure white knives in and red knives out, right?

I don't understand, I really don't understand.

Of course, the Western colonel who advocates the right to life will not understand.

In the hearts of these Eastern soldiers, their lives are compared with what they need to protect, and life can retreat.

Even the Japanese infantrymen who rushed over fiercely with rifles and bulging eyes and biting cheeks under the rain of bullets could also sacrifice their lives for victory.

The Japanese colonel did not choose to kill his own people and opponents with machine gun bullets, which was an attempt to show the bravery of the Imperial Japanese Army.

Tang Dao and Lei Xiong chose to counterattack at the same time in order to defeat the spirit of the Japanese army in one fell swoop.

For the commanders of the warring parties, this was both a tactical and strategic choice, and at the same time, the flower of life that was about to bloom explained a truth to everyone present: Without sacrifice, how can there be victory?

This battle was not only a collision of bayonets and bayonets, nor was it a confrontation between life and life. It was more of a battle of souls.

Life or death has long been secondary.

Tan Tai Mingyue also saw this scene.

She saw Tang Dao.

Although she did not have a telescope, the distance of more than 260 meters made it impossible for her to see who those dark blue people who jumped out of the warehouse like tigers were, and whether there were any recruits or veterans she interviewed that night, but she "saw" Tang Dao.

The dark blue one who led the crowd and stood in front of the horizontal line must be him.

This is a unique intuition of women.

Looking at the figure that was accelerating, Tan Tai Mingyue felt that her breathing was almost stagnant.

Yes, her intuition was not wrong.

The one who rushed to the front of the whole team was none other than Tang Dao.

The Japanese army rushed to the front, and under the shooting of more than 20 submachine guns, all of them became leeks under the sickle of the god of death. The Japanese army rushing behind was still more than 20 meters away.

Therefore, there was space left for Tang Dao and Lei Xiong and others to charge.

It only took one second for Tang Dao to complete the acceleration.

Fighting with a stab is not running, and simply increasing your speed to the highest is enough. It must be a rhythmic speed-up, ensuring that there is no accident under your feet while increasing the speed.

For fighting with a stab, the increase in speed is only secondary to using inertia to increase the power of the stab. The momentum of going forward without turning back is the most important.

Just like a tiger in a hunting state, why can it use a short-range acceleration to pounce on its prey? Is it really just because of the fast speed? No, in fact, the moment the prey saw the tiger rushing towards it, its muscles and bones had completely lost the confidence to resist.

Tang Dao, who rushed ten meters, had accumulated his momentum to the peak through this space.

Behind him, Lei Xiong and Leng Feng followed.

Three bayonets flashed coldly in the sun, forming a triangular arrowhead, stabbing at the Japanese infantry column that was also stimulated by the blood of their colleagues and their eyes were red.

Dark blue and shit yellow collided in the warm and bright autumn sun.

Splashing a blood color.

As the tip of the triangle formation in the arrow of the whole row, Tang Dao, who pounced on the Japanese army like a tiger, was not the first person to contact the Japanese army.

Perhaps, because of his 1.8-meter figure and fierce momentum, the Japanese soldiers facing him subconsciously changed direction from more than ten meters away, preferring to slow down and change direction rather than run into such a fierce man.

That was purely a subconscious effect brought by the level of the food chain, and had nothing to do with life and death.

Just like a group of hyenas, intending to hunt a wounded lion, but can they still dare to face the lion head-on when it pounces on them? Blood and genes restrict them from doing such stupid things.

The same is true for the Japanese army.

So, it was Lei Xiong, who was two meters behind the right side of Tang Dao, who first contacted the Japanese army.

"Kill!" A simple thrust.

In just one encounter, Lei Xiong's bayonet pierced into the chest of a Japanese sergeant who was rushing towards him without any hesitation amid his killing cry.

The Japanese sergeant was definitely a master of stabbing. When he saw Lei Xiong rushing towards him with speed, he put away his gun and began to accumulate power to prepare for the forward stab. His eyes were fixed on Lei Xiong's movements. When Lei Xiong's arm began to stretch forward and was about to stab, his footsteps suddenly stopped and slowed down with all his strength.

This was to make Lei Xiong misjudge his speed, and then wait until Lei Xiong's arm was stretched to the utmost and burst out with all his strength, the tip of the bayonet was about one foot away from his body, and then he swung the rifle in his hand suddenly.

Block!

A perfect block! Not only can it block the opponent's full-strength stab, but it can also counterattack when the opponent's old strength has been exhausted and new strength is coming back!

Those who can make such a block during a high-speed collision are all well-deserved stabbing masters.

If the script is written according to the normal plot, Lei Xiong's bayonet is swung away, but the inertia of the charge is still there. The faster he runs, the more he rushes forward. The Japanese sergeant who swung away the opponent's bayonet only needs to straighten the bayonet, and Lei Xiong will watch him rushing to the tip of the enemy's knife with despair.

Unfortunately, this Japanese sergeant, whose bayonet skills are absolutely beyond the average level of the Japanese army, chose the wrong target.

Because the Chinese army captain he faced was the elite of the most elite tens of thousands of people in the 700,000-strong army that has gathered most of the elite of the millions of Chinese army. To use a more clichéd word to describe it, Lei Xiong is the elite of the elite, the strongest of the strong.

Except for the group of outstanding soldiers in northern China, this elite of the elite can fully represent the highest level of bayonet skills in most of the Chinese army.

In fact, perhaps in terms of bayonet skills, the bayonet skills of the entire Chinese army are far inferior to those of the Japanese army, but if it is from a high-end level, the level of Chinese soldiers is higher than that of the Japanese army.

In fact, the Japanese army's bayonet fighting technique has several development stages, from rise to decline to rise again. In 1915, Japan found the master of spearmanship at that time and modified the bayonet fighting technique together.

Among them, "straight thrust, detached thrust, and downward thrust" are equivalent to "stab right, stab left, and stab down", and "left defense thrust, right defense thrust, and downward defense thrust" are equivalent to "left defense stab, right defense stab, and downward defense stab". These simple offensive and defensive actions are actually just a combination of bayonet and ancient oriental spearmanship.

So, after 1915, the simple but extremely practical bayonet fighting technique of the Japanese army began to be the first in the world's army.

Yes, this kind of bayonet fighting technique, which is simple and suitable for quick learning and is integrated with spearmanship, has indeed raised the average level of bayonet fighting of the entire Japanese army by two levels. However, in terms of spearmanship, the little that Japan pirated from the great China is really not good enough.

The Chinese martial arts created and passed down by the ancestors of China for thousands of years are by no means a flowery rack in the eyes of ordinary people in the future peacetime.

That's because the general environment does not allow it, and the national martial arts of killing people cannot appear in the public's field of vision.

The battlefield is the best stage for Chinese martial arts.

If Lei Xiong had not learned the Yang family spear since childhood, how could he have won the first place in the Imperial Guard, one of the most elite armies in China?

The biggest feature of the Yang family spear is its speed!

The saying goes: "When attacking, it is unstoppable, and the virtual and the real complement each other. When retreating, it is as fast as the wind, steady and majestic." It is about the Yang family spear.

Lei Xiong's speed of drawing the gun is extremely fast, beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

Fast as the wind, fast as lightning.

The Japanese sergeant misjudged the speed of his opponent's gun, so he died.
