Chapter 227 Torpedo Arrives
227 Torpedoes Delivered
"Charge, avenge our brothers in the company!"
All the national army soldiers were filled with anger at this moment.
Especially when they saw the brothers of the first company tied grenades to their bodies and died together with the Japanese on the battlefield.
They felt particularly uncomfortable.
They knew very well that their brothers in the company died for them.
Hundreds of national army soldiers rushed into the devil's camp like tigers descending from the mountains.
"Kill him!"
The remaining Japanese devils still tried to resist stubbornly.
Even after being defeated, these devils were still very brutal.
Many Japanese soldiers were even shirtless, with sanitary napkins tied on their heads, holding Type 38 rifles, and rushed towards the National Army soldiers.
"Kill your mother!"
Da da da!
As a result, the Kuomintang soldiers who were close to the enemy did not even fight with the Japanese devils with bayonets.
Just a burst of bullets from a submachine gun.
Ye Qingshan had already set a rule that he would not fight with the Japanese unless it was absolutely necessary.
No matter how brutal the Japanese were this time, the situation was already hopeless.
At this time, the Japanese Major Matsuishi was listening to the fighting outside, but he was kneeling in the tent, wiping his samurai sword.
He couldn't accept such a result.
So he chose to commit suicide by cutting open his stomach!
By the time Zheng Guizi and his men rushed in, the Japanese major had already been killed.
"Bah, this beast got away with it."
Zheng Quezi spat at the corpse of the Japanese major.
After the war, out of the more than 160 soldiers in Lao Gui's company, only less than 30 survived.
At this time, these thirty people began to slowly develop blisters all over their bodies, the poison took effect, and they suffered tremendous pain.
They did not participate in the final battle to wipe out the remaining Japanese troops.
They all stayed in the trenches.
"Captain, I feel so bad, help me!"
As the hours passed, the soldiers who inhaled mustard gas began to suffer from the toxicity and were in great pain.
"I'm sorry, brother!"
Peng!
With a gunshot, the old ghost personally ended the life of the young soldier.
He burst into tears.
He really couldn't bear to see his soldiers suffer like this.
Bang bang bang!
Later, more poisoned soldiers chose to understand themselves.
“No, don’t do this.
Please, there will be a way!
Don't commit suicide!
We have medicine. I'll give you some morphine.
This is a new medicine that Commander Ye got from the foreigners. It will stop hurting once you inject it."
The two medics were extremely saddened when they saw these soldiers committing suicide, and they tried their best to stop them.
Lao Gui stopped the two medics and shook his head at them: "Forget it, don't waste the new medicine.
We can't survive.
Don't let them suffer any more.
Death is a relief for us at this moment.”
Faced with the company commander Laogui's obstruction, the two medics opened their mouths but ultimately said nothing.
In fact, the two medics also knew it.
The chances of these soldiers surviving are slim, and even the medical level of their rear hospitals is far from enough to cure them.
Perhaps, death is really a relief for them.
In the end, all the surviving soldiers in the company committed suicide.
Captain Laogui endured the pain in his body and put the bodies of his soldiers in order.
“When the battalion commander comes back, tell him.
Of our old group of brothers, he is the only one left.
After we defeat the Japanese, he will come to our grave and tell us the good news.
So, he can’t die.”
After saying this, the old ghost company commander shot himself.
When Zheng Cuzi, who had annihilated all the Japanese devils at the foot of the mountain, returned triumphantly with his soldiers.
Their original joy ended when they saw the old ghost company commander and more than 20 soldiers from the first company who committed suicide.
Their original joy was wiped out, and what was left was endless sadness.
However, Zheng Quezi's victory is indeed of great significance.
With the reinforcement of the Japanese 13th Division, the entire army was wiped out.
The strategic intention of the Japanese 13th Division to support the Yangtze River from land and their two battleships was a complete failure.
Ye Qingshan can calmly arrange the final attack on the Japanese battleship Kirishima.
It was when Zheng Quezi and his men won the battle.
Ye Qingshan finally waited for the batch of torpedoes sent by Chen Cheng at the Xiaguan Ferry.
Several large ferries appeared at the Xiaguan Ferry Terminal.
In order to carry out the task of transporting torpedoes, Chen Cheng sent the last few large transport ships in the hands of the National Army.
"Commander Ye, all thirty torpedoes have been delivered.
Please accept it! "
A young officer came down from the boat, saluted Ye Qingshan, and said.
Ye Qingshan knew that this young officer was Chen Cheng's adjutant and was also very polite.
"Go back and tell Commander Chen, thank you very much."
Ye Qingshan spoke from his heart.
The reason why the batch of torpedoes he bought from the Pitt family this time could be shipped from Hong Kong so quickly.
This would not have been possible without Chen Cheng's strong support.
“You’re too polite, Commander Ye.
By the way, this time Commander Chen asked me to meet Commander Tang.
I wonder if Commander Ye can arrange it."
Then, the young officer continued to speak to Ye Qingshan with a smile.
Ye Qingshan became alert instantly.
This was clearly a test of Ye Qingshan by Chen Cheng.
Ye Qingshan suspected that Chen Cheng had already guessed that he was trying to seize power in Nanjing at this time.
“This request was actually quite reasonable.
But right.
At this time, the urban area between Xiaguan and the command headquarters in the city was taken away by the Japanese.
It is still unknown when our troops in the city will be able to recapture it.
If you're not in a hurry to go back, you can wait here.
Once our troops in the city have cleared the passage, you can go see Commander Tang."
Ye Qingshan replied with a smile.
Ye Qingshan has too many excuses to prevent the other party from seeing Tang Shengzhi.
"No hurry, no hurry, I'm not in a hurry to go back.
I also want to witness with my own eyes the process of Commander Ye sinking the Japanese battleship Kirishima.
When the time comes, I will be able to report to Commander Chen in more detail."
After hearing Ye Qingshan’s explanation, the young adjutant accepted it.
"OK then."
Soon, Ye Qingshan saw with his own eyes that the thirty torpedoes were moved off the ship.
Ye Qingshan excitedly went forward to check.
When Ye Qingshan saw the manufacturing numbers on these torpedoes, his doubts were finally resolved.
“I was wondering how the Pitt family could do this in two days.
Just send thirty torpedoes to Hong Kong.
In such a short time, let alone transporting it from their country, it would be impossible to even send it from their nearest military base on Luzon Island.
Time is a bit tight.
It turns out that they got these torpedoes directly from the English warships."
Ye Qingshan said with a smile.
The batch of torpedoes sent by the Pitt family were all directly removed from the English warships in Hong Kong at that time.
That’s why the speed is so fast.
