Chapter 119, You Come, You Will Be Saved

On the evening of August th,
Kato Kiyotoshi, the deputy head of Jinglong Coal Mine Station, and his family of four were woken up by the sound of fierce gunfire.

The couple didn't have time to tidy up, one was holding a seven-month-old baby, the other was holding a four- or five-year-old girl, and ran out tremblingly. Then Kato rushed to the station chief's office to stick to his post.

They survived the deafening bombardment for three hours, thinking they were through safely.

At this moment, rows of shells mixed with incendiary bombs flew from the direction of Gangtou Old Mine.

It turned out that it was the Japanese army there who, seeing that the new mine had been occupied by the Eighth Route Army, disregarded the safety of the Japanese who had not yet evacuated, and frantically fired at the new mine.

A shell was falling on the station chief's office, and the Kato family was immediately engulfed in flames.

A company and three squads of soldiers who were clearing out the remnants of the enemy immediately rushed into the flames when they heard the cry of the child.

Finding that Mrs. Kato had been shot dead, she rescued Kato and her two children.

"Quick, save people."

Seeing ordinary expats instead of Japanese soldiers in military uniforms, the third squad leader was not so hostile to Kato and called the medical soldiers.

The enemy's incendiary bombs blew up their own nationals, but the medical soldiers of the Eighth Route Army tried their best to treat them.

When Zhang Dabiao arrived, he saw such a scene.

After listening to the company commander's report, he was quite speechless, and at the same time, he was keenly aware that this was an opportunity.

The little devil didn't even spare his own expatriates, killing them as enemies.

If the matter can be published in the newspaper, it will be a major blow to the Japanese side.

"The little devil is too thoughtless, he doesn't even spare his own people. Tell the soldiers and try to save them."

Although he has the mentality of taking advantage, he is still saving people.

Yuan Lang watched coldly from the sidelines without saying a word.

The invasion of China by the Japanese devils was not only done by the military, but the support of the Japanese people was also indispensable.

Parents who send their sons off to the barracks, and wives off their husbands, don't they know that this is aggression?
of course I know.

It's just that since the Sino-Japanese War of -, every time Little Japan won the national fortune, the military, government, and consortia gained most of the benefits, and ordinary people also enjoyed the dividends of the war.

The extra benefits they got were obtained by squeezing the colonial people.

In their eyes, the war of aggression against China is another opportunity to reap the dividends of war.

Some sent their relatives to the battlefield, some cut down on food and clothing to produce weapons and ammunition, and equipped soldiers to play an auxiliary role in aggression.

Do you dare to say that they are not guilty at all?
In an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.

Yuan Lang didn't think that the seriously injured expatriate in front of him was such an innocent character.

He was here to help Japan plunder China's coal mines. The coal mines entered the steel plant and burned to assist in the production of steel. After the steel was produced, it was turned into shells and finally hit him.

Four words to describe - self-inflicted.

On the contrary, those two children are quite innocent, and children should not be involved in the war.

"Treat those two children well."

One more word, Yuan Lang's sympathy for the Japanese is only a little bit left.

The new mining area has basically been occupied, and there is no task of overcoming difficulties, only the task of clearing the end.

And the fierce fighting was still going on in the old mining area, so Yuan Lang naturally couldn't rest.

After telling Zhang Dabiao, he took the soldiers of the artillery squad and the Type infantry artillery to rush to support.

At the same time that the first battalion occupied the new mining area of ​​Xinjing Coal Mine, the second battalion also took down the Jiazhuang blockhouse.

Only the third battalion is still attacking the old mine in Gangtou.

The Gangtou Old Mine is the seat of the Japanese headquarters guarding the entire Arai Coal Mine. In addition to the bunkers, there are forts.

Just like the first battalion, at the beginning of the war, the third battalion went smoothly because it caught the enemy by surprise. Two gaps were opened in the southeast corner of the old mine.
He also occupied three bunkers in the mining area, killed more than ten Japanese soldiers, and captured one Japanese and puppet soldiers each.

But the effect of the sudden attack ends here.

The captain of the mine guard of the Japanese army, Captain Kobayashi Takahito, was a young officer specially transferred from the field troops. He had fought many tough battles and was appreciated by his superiors.

Therefore, the responsibility of defending the entire Xinjing Coal Mine was entrusted to him.

Captain Kobayashi did not disappoint his superiors. After being attacked suddenly, he immediately got up from the bed and methodically summoned troops to enter the fortress to guard against death.

With the backbone, the Japanese army here has not panicked.Rely on the strong fortress and powerful firepower to counterattack.

Captain Kobayashi also used poison gas cunningly. Even though the soldiers participating in the attack covered their mouths and noses with wet cloth towels in advance, they still suffered a lot.

The front attack was not smooth, and the rear echelon of the third battalion failed to keep up in time.

In order to avoid excessive casualties, Li Yunlong ordered the third battalion to withdraw from the bunker and hold the gap to confront the enemy.

The second battalion that attacked the Jiazhuang artillery tower was the first to report the success.He immediately ordered the mobilization of the Second Battalion, carrying Type infantry artillery to help out.

In the process of waiting, the old mine bombarded the new mine.

Li Yunlong was still wondering, what is the little devil doing?Why did you bombard the new mining area!

Yuan Lang, who just arrived, brought Lao Li the answer.

Li Yunlong was surprised after listening to it, and he didn't shy away from it at all, and told the truth: "Huo, it's still a dog eats a dog!"

If the political commissar heard such non-political words, he had to argue with him.If the brigade commander heard it, he would have to be criticized.

Simply these two are not there.

Looking at the -type infantry artillery, in fact, Lao Li was a little upset, but it was difficult to express it.

The second battalion carried a -type infantry artillery, and it was a matter of grasping to take down the Jiazhuang artillery tower.

The task of the first battalion to attack the new mining area is actually not light.But so far in the past three hours, most of the enemies have been wiped out, and they have entered the finishing work.

As for the third battalion led by Li Yunlong, he suffered setbacks and failed to win the Laokeng mining area.

Where does this make him the head of the regiment?

In fact, it's not that Lao Li can't do it, it's that he lacks a cannon master and a -type infantry cannon.

Let's say that the big central blockhouse attacked by the first battalion would have opened the gap if Yuan Lang hadn't opened the gap.

You let the third company and the fourth company fight together, believe it or not, even if the sun rises, you may not be able to win.

And even if it is won, the number of casualties must be several times that of the defenders in the fortress.

Lao Li's heart ached to death just by looking at it.

The Jiazhuang artillery tower is relatively easy to fight, but if there is no Type infantry artillery, it will not be too smooth.

The number of casualties will definitely be higher than that of the defenders.

In the final analysis, it was Li Yunlong who lacked the equipment to attack the fortifications.

Of course, Lao Li also realized it, so he withdrew first to confront the enemy.

Now that the equipment for attacking the fortifications has arrived, he affectionately tugged at Yuan Lang: "It's all right now, I'm relieved that you're here.

If you come, the enemies inside will not survive tonight.The compatriots who are still in the mining area will also be saved. "
