Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 273: Tongdeng meat grinder (12)

Major Smith stood by the road, watching several subordinates search and inspect the body of a Japanese soldier who died in battle. `He calmly watched the sergeants dig through the body's bag and uniform pockets to find out a piece of debris, and put them neatly on the side of the grass.

"These are personal items. They look poor in texture, but they should work normally. Look at the wear and tear of this toothbrush. Obviously this soldier brushes his teeth every day."

"Soap and sanitary utensils, as well as changing underwear, we don't have any special items. These are standard marching equipment."

"Military kettle, there is half a pot of water left. The aluminum lunch box contains rice wrapped in plant leaves. The taste is a bit strange. Do you see if the leaf is reed."

"I guess this may be his soldier certificate. I need a dictionary."

"This is an infantry corporal, who has the power to carry a command knife. It seems that he cherishes his knife and cares very carefully."

Several sergeants checked the relics of the soldier's sergeant while babbling their opinions.

"After checking this person, you can check the captain officer over there again. I need to get conclusive evidence to prove that this is a premeditated attack. You know the importance of it and don’t need me to focus on it. I'm reminded." Major Smith took over the handbook of the Japanese army handed over by him, looked it up a bit and then handed it back to the other party.

"Yes, sir." The lead sergeant saluted the major and replied loudly.

These sergeants are specially assigned to this guard battalion, and they are only responsible to Major Smith. All of them have received rigorous training in Brandenburg and are good at intelligence collection and analysis. They can occasionally end up in person. Do some wet work.

"Sir, the command is coming to communicate, the lieutenant colonel has already contacted the French." The correspondent reported with the receiver of the radio.

"I'm Smith." After taking the receiver, Smith answered calmly.

"I have just contacted Lieutenant Colonel Philippe, the commander of the Tongdeng Garrison. They are indeed fighting the Japanese army. The French hope that we can provide support." Lieutenant Colonel Ludwig said clearly in the headset. sound.

"Same as my previous judgment. The Japanese should target the French. We are just a group of unfortunate passers-by who accidentally broke into the crime scene. `Sir, I want to know what you think. See you."

"What thoughts" Ludwig did not understand.

"The French are now requesting our assistance. This is an excellent opportunity to draw closer relations between the two countries. Yuan has been working hard to bridge the rift that this war has brought to European countries. This time our performance will become a The most powerful proof is that the two European powers let go of their hatred and unite."

"I didn't think so much, but your thinking is more flexible than mine. I just want to collect blood debts for the soldiers who died in battle, and safeguard the glory of the SS and the empire."

"Then how did you answer the French?" Smith took out the cigarette from his uniform pocket.

"I promise him that we will provide full support."

"Have you told them that we have already gotten into trouble with the Japanese"

"He did not ask, nor did I say."

"Very well, sir, don’t disclose these details to the French, this will achieve better results. Think about it, in order to rescue the French, the German SS soldiers did not hesitate to shed blood and sacrifice. There is no better publicity than this. This is the material, sir. You and the Guard Brigade will be on the front page of the newspaper for this."

"I see, Smith, thank you for your reminder, I know what to do."

"How is the situation on the French side, can you hold on." With his hands on the earphones, Smith vomited a cloud of smoke and brushed the soot.

"It is said that they can still insist. They are organizing a counterattack. Philip is only worried that the Japanese army will have a follow-up unit. Across the border is said to be stationed an entire Japanese infantry division."

"This is not like a large-scale invasion. Judging from the intelligence we have obtained so far, the enemy may be just an infantry battalion, and there should be no more." Smith was sure of his judgment.

"I don't understand, the Japanese only send this person what they want to do."

"Maybe I just want to teach the French a lesson. It may also be another reckless trial, but the commander overcame it. Who knows, the thinking of these Orientals is difficult to understand."

"I have ordered the brigade to continue the attack. If nothing else, we will work with the French to form a two-pronged posture against this group of Japanese troops, and strive to annihilate the other side in the same area.`" Ludwig Zhongzhong The school replied confidently. He was convinced that the Guard Brigade had achieved this goal.

At the same time, Samasa Morimoto's Second Naka was lying embarrassed by a pile of rocks on the side of the road, holding a binoculars and looking at the enemy troops who were violently assaulting the brigade.

"What is the Chinese army that is obviously the Red Deer Kuno of the 6th Army of the Republic of China, the red deer" Morimoto just wanted to devour Toshio Kuno's body at this time.

Although Morimoto has not served as a military attaché abroad, he still has basic knowledge. He has always had a strong interest in the exhibition of European battlefields. Like other senior officers, he has extreme respect for the powerful German Sixth Army. He was even a fan of the German dollar and regarded the young German dictator as an example of personal struggle. So when he saw the beautiful uniform of the German 6th Army through the binoculars, his whole head was stunned. He thought it was the **** weather and fatigue that caused him to have terrible hallucinations, but then the other party used a rainstorm. His machine gun bullet reminded him that all of this is a real reality, and his brigade is fighting a German team.

"Cease fire immediately, send an envoy to cease fire, immediately send an envoy to negotiate with the other side" Morimoto gave the order loudly. Although he is completely confused about the situation in front of him, he is out of the instinct of a senior commander. Knowing that this conflict that may be caused by misunderstanding must be stopped immediately. The French reinforcements are likely to come on the other side of the road. If the German team blocks the retreat again, the Morimoto team will have no chance of escape.

"It is indeed the lone team. What happened? Why are the people of the lone country here and why they attacked our army." Lieutenant Nobi lay next to Morimoto, and he also revealed the identity of the opponent through the telescope. Like the captain, the young adjutant immediately realized the seriousness of the situation, and a series of questions were raised in panic.

"I thought, Kuno must have made a misjudgment. He judged the armored car of the independent team as the Chinese army. Does this red deer know that the armored car of the Chinese army is produced by the independent country? It must be him He rashly fired at the people of the only country, causing the other party to misunderstand him, this **** Kuno. It is hard to atone for his crimes." The thinking of Japanese officers is basically a routine. Morimoto Takuji stood in Kuno's position and thought about it for a while, and immediately got the facts. The truth was guessed at odds and ends.

"At the beginning of the month, the Independence and France signed a final war contract. France has surrendered to Germany. It is reasonable for a German team to appear on French territory. The problem is that we have not obtained the slightest bit of information in this regard. This is the staff headquarters. The negligence of the intelligence department has caused such a big omission." Morimoto felt that he had been pitted, and he angrily patted the stone in front of him and said loudly.

"Lord Captain, I can guarantee that they clearly saw our signal, but the other party did not cease the fire." At this time, Chief Xiaomu Cao, who was sent to the front line to wave the white flag, hurried back to report.

"We have too few troops, sir Captain." Lieutenant Yebi reminded him quietly from the side.

At this time, only the Takeda squadron of the Ninth Squadron and a 12-man direct security squad were left to defend the squadron, plus the remaining one and a half squadrons of the machine gun squadron. The team leader of the Takeda team was killed, and a sergeant is now acting as the team leader. The entire squad suffered severe losses in previous battles, and only 21 soldiers were left with combat capabilities. The machine gun squadron is still working hard to suppress the shooting of the French wild artillery and the machine gun fort. Two of the 92 heavy machine guns suffered mechanical failures due to the continuous shooting time for too long. The weapon sergeant is working hard to repair them with the ordnance, but because of lack Parts and processing equipment cannot be ruled out for a while.

"The enemy refuses to communicate. It must be because he wants to fight us to the end. What did Hisano do so that the people of the Republic of China blatantly ignored the laws of war. Nobi-kun, if one of us can survive this time, we must go to the army. The Ministry’s report on this matter may make the Empire take the initiative in this matter.” Morimoto has lost the confidence to continue fighting at this moment. He is already considering how to deal with it after the defeat.

"Captain, it's still too early to talk about success or failure. I suggest that the team department should retreat immediately and meet the Okubo Hasegawa Squadron. Maybe we can find a breakthrough from the other side." Lieutenant Nobi pulled Morimoto's arm loudly. Speaking of.

At this time, the SS squad at the front had rushed to a place less than 300 meters away from the Japanese army, and fiercely fired with machine guns and rifles against the stubbornly resisting Takeda soldiers. The Japanese used grenadiers to cast grenades continuously in an attempt to suppress the opponent's stunning machine gun. The Germans also used 50mm mortar shells.

The two sides seem to be evenly matched, but Morimoto knows very well that his side is actually at the end of the crossbow, unable to withstand the continuous enemy attack, followed by the screaming of two 81mm mortar shells. Zhong fell to the defensive position of the brigade headquarters, and overturned a 92-type heavy machine gun on the spot. The entire machine gun group flew with the flesh and blood of an infantry unit on the side, and the **** reality proved Morimoto's previous judgment. .

"The squadron was immediately transferred to meet the Okubo Squadron. We also have an infantry artillery squad that can block the enemy's attack." Morimoto finally made a decision.

"Everyone is preparing to retreat, and the Takeda team will leave a team to cover the transfer of the team headquarters." Lieutenant Nobi shouted loudly, holding a saber and scabbard and quickly rushed towards the command military account, which contains the most important map of the Morimoto team. Package and file box.

"What should I do with the wounded, sir." The chief medical officer rushed to Morimoto and asked.

"We don't have the manpower to take them with them. Stay where they are. The people of the Republic should take care of them." Morimoto frowned. Although he didn't want his soldiers to become prisoners, it was obviously a big deal this time. The misunderstanding of being captured by the Germans should be different.

"Lord Captain, I ask to stay and take care of the wounded. They are all loyal soldiers of His Majesty the Emperor. I am responsible for their safety." The chief medical officer respectfully pleaded.

"Asshole", Morimoto, who was so furious, stepped forward and punched the chief medical officer in the face.

"I also think for their safety. The solitary nation is an army of a civilized country and will not do anything to the wounded. You are an emperor and you must never surrender. Remember that you still have your duties. You stay Now, what should I do if there are wounded again? Should I personally rescue them?"

Before Morimoto’s words fell, the 280mm mortar shells landed on the Japanese army’s position. One of them fell beside the commanding military tent. The violent hurricane explosion mixed with shrapnel instantly shredded the tent. The people in the tent lay all over the place, all kinds of paper documents flying all over the sky, scattered on the yellow-brown mud around the tent.

Morimoto was knocked to the ground by a strong shock wave on the spot. After the explosion, he turned over and sat up. At a glance, he saw the smoking crater beside the military tent and the corpse of the subordinate lying on the ground.

"Lieutenant Nobi" Morimoto got up and called out his most trusted adjutant, and immediately saw the familiar figure in the group of corpses.

"Your excellency, you must transfer immediately." Gunso Tamura, the captain of the security detachment, held Morimoto's shoulder.

"It's not safe here anymore, sir Captain, please follow me to leave immediately, and we will promise your safety to the death."

"But Lieutenant Nobi~IndoMTL.com~Morimoto covered his head. Perhaps he had received shock damage before and suddenly felt dizzy for a while.

"I'll leave someone to deal with, Lord Captain." After speaking, Sergeant Tamura gestured to the two subordinates. The two soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to support the captain, and then walked quickly toward the hillside beside the highway. Climb up. At this time, there were German chasing troops in the back, and a machine gun in the front. Only by taking the old road of Okubo and going around the hillside to the side could they join the two squadrons.

The command post of Morimoto Battalion abandoned the wounded, leaving behind the broken infantry and machine gun squadrons, and moved to the other end of the road in a panic. What these Japanese eager to escape could not think of was that Hasegawa Squadron, the last savior in their minds, was struggling in a hopeless battle at the moment, and the entire squadron was about to collapse.
