Volume 1 Deserter's Bloodbath Chapter 9 Vomited!
When Han Yingbin received the order, it was already dawn, and the rest of the troops of the Death Battalion were ready to set off.
"When will the rest of the 33rd Brigade arrive? Our battalion doesn't have any heavy weapons, so I'm afraid we won't be able to hold out for long."
After receiving the order, Ye Peigao hung the odds and ends on his body while asking the brother who came to deliver the message.
"The brigade commander didn't tell me that the emergency ammunition for you is on the way and should arrive soon!"
The messenger replied hastily that he was only busy delivering orders and had not had time to mention the replenishment of ammunition.
"The guards will stay and escort the ammunition; the rest of you will set off!" Han Yingbin shouted loudly.
"Remember, there's no need to rush to deliver the ammunition to Luodian. Find a place behind Luodian and keep a close watch on the retreat. Anyone who retreats without orders will be killed!"
Han Yingbin knew what kind of soldiers he was leading. If this group of people collapsed in the face of the fierce attack of the Japanese, the consequences would be disastrous. The guard squad was also a supervision team, and Peng Shan equipped them with all German submachine guns, which were perfect for supervising the battle.
The area around Luodian is still very quiet now, at least there is no sound of heavy artillery bombardment , but it is not known whether there is any exchange of fire, after all, the two places are almost ten kilometers apart.
In Luodian, the Japanese's probing continued. Under Chen Sheng's order, the brothers of the first company became cowards. No matter how you fight, as long as you don't rush in, we won't open fire.
"Buzz, buzz, buzz..."
There was a low buzzing sound in the sky, and two planes painted with the ugly Japanese flag emerged from the clouds.
Although the sun had not yet risen, it did not prevent the Japanese planes from taking off. They were on an aircraft carrier in the open sea, and as long as it was not foggy, it would not be difficult for them to take off.
Of course, the Japanese planes were not here for shopping. Following closely behind the two planes were another one...
"The enemy planes are coming, take cover!"
Chen Sheng roared, the thing he was most worried about came true. The Japanese squadron was too close , and the devils could not bomb with naval guns. However, it was not difficult for the bombers. They could drop bombs in the southern part of Luodian and destroy the defenders' fortifications and reserve forces.
“Boom, boom, boom…”
Luodian was engulfed in flames and smoke. The earth was shaking. The sturdy blue brick and tile houses could not even groan in this bombardment. They were turned into the most primitive building materials and were blasted into the air and then fell heavily to the ground.
The houses that had just stood in Luodian were razed to the ground in such a violent explosion. The entire Luodian seemed to have been plowed through, with earth and rocks thrown up by the explosion flying everywhere.
No screams were heard, perhaps because the sound was completely drowned out in the explosion. Not to mention being in the center of the explosion, even those on the edge would be broken into two pieces if hit by shrapnel. Even if they were hit by flying rocks, it would be a catastrophic disaster for these brothers.
Fortunately, the Death Squadron had no reserve troops at all. All of them were concentrated in the northern part of Luodian to confront the Japanese. The brothers did not look outside at this time. They squatted on the ground, covered their ears, and prayed to the gods and Buddhas!
“Ding Dong!”
The steel helmet on Feng E's head hit the ground hard, and his position of lying on his side on the ground did not change because of the arrival of the Japanese planes. Fortunately, this was on the second floor, and the power of the shock wave was reduced a lot, which only caused his body to shake!
"Stand up and cover your ears!"
Li Chenglin shouted anxiously, gesturing his movements while shouting, asking the new recruit to learn from him, because he knew that in this kind of explosion, the sound could not be transmitted at all!
"What did you say?"
Feng E lay prone on the ground, the roar of the explosion made his ears buzz, the splattering fragments and soil hit the wooden wall with a ping-pong sound, and his body felt terribly suffocated!
"Get up!"
Li Chenglin was making gestures, and Feng E finally understood. He squatted on the floor like Li Chenglin, and felt a little better. He nodded to Li Chenglin gratefully.
"Boom, boom..."
The bombing by the Japanese planes was still going on. The huge smoke and dust rising from the explosions covered the entire Luodian. The choking smoke was pervasive and poured into the lungs of all the brothers.
“Cough cough cough…”
At this time, Feng E felt as if he was suffocating and kept coughing. Not only him, but almost all the brothers were coughing. After an unknown amount of time, the explosions finally stopped, and Luodian had become a ruin, except for dozens of houses standing in the north that were crumbling.
“Crackle…”
The destroyed houses caught fire during the bombing, and the collapsed houses made crackling sounds. Several remaining soldiers rushed out roaring and jumped directly into the bomb crater.
The entire Luodian has become a mess, with bomb craters of various sizes and piles of bricks and stones.
"Go! The house is going to collapse!"
Li Chenglin looked at the crumbling roof above his head, pulled Feng E up, and rushed madly towards the stairs. The brothers on the first floor didn't care at this time and ran out madly ...
“Boom boom boom…”
The Japanese planes had finished their bombing, but they continued to strafe, as if they were bullying the defenders for not having anti-aircraft weapons. The Japanese planes flew low over Luodian, and their machine guns madly strafed the remaining houses. When the strafing came to an end, they pulled the planes up, circled in the sky, and then did it again.
“Boom boom boom…”
There was a strafing of Japanese planes overhead. Li Chenglin had no way of caring about Feng E at this time. He ran towards the bomb crater and jumped into it in panic. At this time, the huge bomb crater was the safest place.
Feng E, feeling top-heavy, stumbled after Li Chenglin in the provincial capital, but he soon lost sight of Li Chenglin.
“Plop!”
Feng E tripped over fallen wood and fell into the ruins. The bricks and stones on the ground made him feel pain all over his body.
"ah!"
Feng E screamed, his whole face twisted together, which reminded him of the torture in the military prison.
"Puff puff……"
When Feng E finally reacted and raised his head, he saw that two of his running brothers were hit by the Japanese machine guns. Their legs were still in the running posture, but their whole bodies fell down in front of Feng E.
The red and white objects, as well as the bones showing through the skin and flesh, appeared in front of Feng E without any warning.
"Ugh! Ugh!"
Feng E felt his face go cold, and he wiped it with his hand, which was covered in blood. His stomach churned, and he lay on the ruins and began to vomit...
The Japanese planes kept circling and strafing over Luodian until their ammunition ran out, then they shook their wings and disappeared into the sky, leaving Luodian in flames, corpses all over the ground, and of course the anger of the brothers in the Death Squad.
