Songhu: Never Give Up

Chapter 69 No Devil is Innocent

Kawabe Shichiro felt aggrieved and just wanted to greet Inoue Koji's still charming mother. He had schemed so hard but ended up losing a leg, while Inoue Koji didn't even lose a hair. It was so unfair. Amaterasu must be a blind person!
"Hebian-kun, don't be afraid. You're just missing a leg. I'll carry you."

"Bagayalu, get out of the way, you coward, charge now!"

When Shichiro Kawabe saw that Koji Inoue was looking for another excuse to avoid the charge, he started cursing at the top of his lungs. His wounds were bleeding, and he was furious at the thought of dying in front of Koji Inoue.

"Kawabe-kun, you will not die. You can serve the emperor with only one leg. I will not give up on you."

Inoue Koji bandaged him as he spoke, but the other devils had already surpassed them and were rushing to reincarnate in a hurry.

In order to stop the bleeding of Kawabe Shichiro, Inoue Koji grabbed some mud and smeared it on his wound. Kawabe Shichiro screamed in pain, and he thought that Inoue Koji was definitely taking revenge on him.

"Bakayaloo, go to hell!"

Shichiro Kawabe took off the bayonet from the gun and stabbed it directly into Koji Inoue's chest. Koji Inoue looked at his good brother in horror and couldn't understand why he wanted to attack him.

"Hebian-kun, why? Yizi-"

"Go to hell!"

Kawabe Shichiro put all his strength into it and thrust it in a few more inches, and Inoue Koji was completely dead.

"Bakayalu, China belongs to the empire, and Yizi is mine!"

"Tattoo..."

"DaDaDa..."

More and more Japanese soldiers fell beside Hebian Shichiro, and some Japanese soldiers stepped on his body and ran over, then fell in front of him;

The river beach was littered with wounded soldiers and corpses. No one cared about their lives. After one wave was dispersed, another wave rushed forward. They seemed to have no idea what death was. They just kept charging forward...

After repelling five waves of attacks by the Japanese, the defenders had almost run out of bullets and were unable to stop the Japanese from rushing up the river bank.

Liao Jianping roared, picked up a rifle with a bayonet and rushed towards the Japanese. The others followed closely behind him. The two torrents of shit-yellow and light green collided with each other, and the two sides engaged in a brutal hand-to-hand combat.

A truly elite unit would not be afraid of a bloody battle with the enemy, and the 88th Division was no exception. The Second Battalion even had special hand-to-hand combat training.

Under Yue Qianli's strategy of maintaining troops at any cost, the officers and soldiers of the Second Battalion were generally strong and equipped with a large number of Mauser pistols and submachine guns, so they were not at a disadvantage in hand-to-hand combat and even had the upper hand.

The three of them formed an assassination team, with two in front and one in the back, protecting the team leader in the middle;

The team leaders are equipped with a C96 box gun, and the -round magazine ensures their continuous firepower output.

The two riflemen were only responsible for protecting the team leader, while the team leader kept calling out the names of the Japanese with his pistol;
When He Haitao was in the mood for killing, he even used continuous shooting. After killing two Japanese devils with a long burst of fire, his magazine was emptied.

He deftly took out the last magazine from his body and loaded it. During this time, his safety was ensured by the two riflemen.

Just as he was changing bullets, the corporal Liu Wei on the left wing was hit on the shoulder by a Japanese officer. Liu Wei held his sword tightly.

The Japanese officer pushed hard, and Liu Wei's left arm was cut off at the root, and blood spurted all over the Japanese officer's face.

Major Suzuki stuck out his blood-red tongue and rolled it like a demon from hell. As a direct disciple of Beichen Ittoryu, he was confident in his swordsmanship.
He was not afraid of fighting one against three. He Haitao glared at Major Suzuki with his eyes wide open. If you dare to hurt his comrade, then die!
Major Suzuki also felt the murderous aura from He Haitao, and looked at the box gun in He Haitao's hand provocatively. The meaning was self-evident, that was for the samurai to put down his gun and play knife with him.

He Haitao sneered, turned the trigger to continuous shooting, raised his hand and fired a burst of bullets, still using the fan-shaped shooting method. When He Haitao raised the pistol, a trace of fear flashed in Major Suzuki's eyes, but he still chopped the knife in his hand fiercely;

His teacher once told him confidently that within seven steps, a sword of the Ichidari-ryu technique would be faster than a Western gun, and he wanted to verify it.

As he swung the knife, He Haitao pulled the trigger. Suzuki's knife stopped a foot away, and he was hit by 7 bullets...

Within seven steps, the gun is still faster!
"Bagaya road!"

Before falling down, Major Suzuki greeted his grandmother and said that if he could do it again, he would never be so stupid as to challenge a bullet with a knife.

Since the number of the Japanese soldiers who rushed onto the river bank was far behind that of the first and second companies, and they had no technical or tactical advantage, the result of the hand-to-hand combat made Ando Twenty-three feel humiliated. Their men were actually driven off the river bank by the Chinese with bayonets, leaving behind a pile of corpses.

"Bakayarō, the Chinese are too despicable. Hand-to-hand combat with guns is not the job of a samurai!"

Ando Twenty-three once again found an excuse for his failure - it was not that the Imperial Army was incompetent, but that the Chinese were too cunning.

"Pooh!"

Liao Jianping, who was covered in blood, spat a mouthful of thick phlegm at the devil's back, and then shouted:
"What the hell are you all standing there for? Be prepared for the artillery fire!"

After hearing the order, Corporal Liu Wei lost all his strength and fell to the ground like a javelin.

He Haitao rushed over with one quick step, picked up Liu Wei and sniffed his breath, then he let out a long sigh and yelled to the others:

"Stretcher, carry it down quickly, we must save his life!"

Although they won the hand-to-hand combat, the casualties of the two companies were also very heavy, and at most they killed 1,000 enemies and lost 800 of their own.

Fortunately, most of the Japanese troops were consumed in the previous "pig charge", and less than 30% of them actually rushed to the river bank, and were all driven back by a counterattack by the Second Battalion.

After this battle, the 12th Regiment did not recover for half a day, and the nd Battalion had no intention of counterattacking, and the two sides fell into a brief standoff.

Anda Twenty-three placed his hope on a flanking maneuver. He had to admit that the defenders of the Lion Grove were too capable of fighting. He didn't believe that the Chinese on the flank would be so stubborn.

On the right wing, at the position of the 527th Regiment, a large number of Japanese soldiers rushed towards the position. Li Jie, the commander of the first battalion, raised his MP28 submachine gun and roared:
"Brothers, kill the devils!"

Hundreds of soldiers from a battalion rushed forward to meet the Japanese invaders. The two torrents collided with each other, and a large number of people fell down in an instant, including Japanese invaders and national army soldiers.

Wherever Li Jie charged, the bodies of the Japanese soldiers were lying on the ground. He was surrounded by more than 20 people, each holding a submachine gun. The dense firepower killed the Japanese soldiers without any resistance.
This was the commando team of the first battalion. They stabbed into the heart of the Japanese like a boning knife. The others followed closely behind, killing the Japanese and forcing them to retreat step by step.

"Kill the chicken and give it to me!"

Colonel Toshio Muraji, commander of the 10nd Regiment of the 22th Infantry Brigade, saw that his troops were already defeated. Unwilling to accept defeat, he sent the nd Battalion forward as well, and the battle once again became fierce.

When Liao Lingqi saw the Japs' reinforcements, he also shouted:

"I can't fight anymore. Gather the brothers from the regiment and follow me to kill the devils!"
