Volume 1 Chapter 049 A fatal shot
Even if you try your best to dodge, it is impossible to avoid it completely at such a short distance.
The bullet hit Sun Jiang's shoulder, leaving two holes.
The excruciating pain caused the muscles on Sun Jiang's face to squeeze together.
He fell backwards and hit the ground.
The soldiers of the guard squad rushed over, surrounded Sun Jiang, and protected him in the center circle.
Sun Jiang came back to his senses and shouted, "Don't worry about me, stop the devils!"
It’s a pity it’s too late!
Just now, the guard squad leader Jiang Wu's loud shout startled the soldiers of the 3rd Battalion.
Just that moment of panic gave the Japanese army an opportunity to break through the 3rd Battalion's line in one fell swoop.
The remaining Japanese troops immediately poured out from the big gap like a flood breaking through a dam!
Success!
There were no more soldiers of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in front of us, and no more machine guns and artillery fire!
After paying an extremely heavy price, the Japanese Kuroda Battalion finally broke through .
The Japanese army was jubilant. Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda asked the signalman to send a telegram: "We have successfully broken through. Please provide support!"
The 22nd Regiment responded quickly: "We will do our best to get here. Please hold on!"
The last Japanese soldier in Sato's squadron, who was responsible for the rearguard, was lying on the ground. He had been shot three times and his face was very pale. He was struggling to take out a grenade and blow himself up.
bump!
As his hand just touched the grenade, a bullet hit his forehead.
His hands fell limply.
Finally, all these devils were killed, and Chu Yunfei couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
The Japanese were not as stupid and rubbish as they were portrayed in TV dramas. They collapsed as soon as they were hit, and then were routed thousands of miles away like the Nationalist army.
They are very ferocious and will fight to the last man standing.
If the New 1st Regiment hadn't destroyed the Sakata Regiment's headquarters with one shot last time, the 358th Regiment would have launched a surprise attack on the enemy.
I'm afraid it will be impossible to defeat the Sakata Corps.
Just as Chu Yunfei was sighing, the communicator hurried over.
"Report! The enemy has broken through the 3rd Battalion's defense line, and Battalion Commander Sun is injured!"
"What?" Chu Yunfei shouted. "Hurry up!"
This time he wanted to keep all the members of Kuroda's team.
Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda took a look at his men. There were more than 900 of them when they came, but now there are less than 200 left, and many of them are injured.
As for Sato's squad and the artillery squad, all of them were killed.
He glanced behind him with a vicious look.
Despicable Chinese, sooner or later, I will use their heads to wash away today's shame.
Just as Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda was about to shout at his men to speed up and retreat, holding his officer's sword.
Under a tree at the foot of Wuming Mountain.
Li Baoquan, deputy squad leader of the sniper squad, did not kill as many people as Wang Xikui in this battle.
His style is different from Wang Xikui's.
Wang Xikui's shooting skills are fast, fierce and accurate. The faster the shooting speed, the more people he kills.
Li Baoquan was more patient. He killed a machine gunner and a second lieutenant before the war started.
He moved to the front of the battlefield towards the 3rd Battalion, lying on the ground wearing a khaki ghillie suit.
Even when the 3rd Battalion was in the most difficult time, he didn't fire a single shot.
This is because they don't want to expose their position and attract the enemy's attention.
He wanted to kill the most critical enemy.
He always kept the captain's words in his heart.
The sniper is the god of death who can decide the outcome of a battle!
What about a machine gunner? What about a grenadier?
If you want to kill someone, kill the most important one!
Even during the previous breakout, Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda was always in the rear of the Japanese army, and Li Baoquan could never find an opportunity.
Now the Japanese army broke through the 3rd Battalion's defense line, and Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda was pushed forward by others.
Li Baoquan, who had been hiding in the wing for nearly 40 minutes, finally got the chance.
He quietly extended his rifle and aimed at Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda's back.
His comrade Chen Sheng was beside him. He took a look through the telescope and put it down immediately.
He glanced at the leaves nearby and said softly, "At 11 o'clock, about 150 to 200 meters away. Light breeze, slightly hot weather!"
Hearing the data reported by comrade Chen Sheng.
It's a bit far.
But it's still within my range.
Take a deep breath and exhale slowly. Wait until your body is at its most stable.
Li Baoquan pulled the trigger.
boom!
The sound of a gunshot did not stand out in this still peaceful battlefield.
The Japanese devils didn't care at all.
As Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda was running forward, a bullet passed through the surrounding soldiers, entered his left arm, pierced his lung, and exited from his right rib.
Blood splatters!
Instantly, a sharp pain rushed to his forehead and his pupils dilated.
After staggering two steps forward, he fell to the ground.
A large amount of blood will flow into the lungs, hindering oxygen replacement.
Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda felt difficulty breathing. He tried desperately to breathe out, but it was no use.
He grasped his throat with his right hand.
Both eyes are bloodshot and red.
One side of his face was pale and his expression was terrifying.
When the Japanese soldiers saw their leader suddenly fall down, they surrounded him in panic.
"Your Excellency, Lieutenant Colonel!"
"Kuroda-kun!"
"Medic! The medic died there!"
…
The Japanese soldiers were extremely anxious, but it was useless.
Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda died of suffocation due to lack of oxygen in extreme pain.
His face was blue and purple, his eyes were wide open, and his pupils were dilated.
Very scary!
When Sun Jiang was about to lose his temper at his men after being helped up by them, Jiang Wen suddenly shouted, "Captain, look!"
Sun Jiang looked in the direction his finger was pointing.
Huh!
The Japs suddenly stopped.
Don't know what happened though!
But who can care about this at this time?
Sun Jiang shouted loudly: "Hurry up and catch up with them and kill them all!"
The soldiers of the 3rd Battalion had just seen their battalion commander injured and the enemy had broken through their defense line, so they gave up the pursuit.
Now, upon hearing the order, they immediately resumed their pursuit of the Japanese troops, firing as they chased.
Bang bang…
Seeing the enemy coming again, the captain of the Otsuka Squadron, Major Otsuka, shouted, "Take the lieutenant colonel with you, and we will retreat quickly!"
Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda's two orderly soldiers immediately carried Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda up and ran hurriedly towards Heyuan County.
I worked so hard to take down a high-ranking official, how could I let you carry me away?
Li Baoquan raised his hand and shot a serviceman in the back.
The man lunged forward and Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda fell to the ground.
But he was lucky, he was already dead and couldn't feel any pain!
The remaining orderly saw this and simply carried Lieutenant Colonel Kuroda on his back and ran forward with all his might.
The Japanese soldiers also ran a few steps at this time, and suddenly turned around and opened fire at the pursuing Shanxi Suiyuan Army soldiers, preventing the enemy from getting closer.
After all, it was the Japanese army that started the attack, and their physical condition was considered good in Asia at that time.
They chased and shot all the way, but the distance between them did not get closer, but instead showed signs of getting bigger and bigger.
Seeing that the Japanese soldiers were about to escape, Sun Jiang, Li Baoquan and others were extremely anxious.
Suddenly, a volley of grenades was thrown from the front of the Japanese.
Boom boom…
This sudden grenade attack immediately caused a series of explosions in the Japanese camp.
Major Otsuka, who was at the front, was so frightened when he saw the enemy rushing towards him that he started shaking all over.
The enemy wanted to annihilate us completely and not give us any chance to survive, and even set up an ambush here.
After just a second of panic, Major Otsuka's eyes became extremely vicious.
He pointed his officer's knife forward.
"Gentlemen, the time has come to serve the Emperor. See you all at Kudanzaka!"
After saying that, he howled and rushed towards the enemy in front of him with his officer's sword!
