My own war game

Chapter 248 After the Smoke
"Surrender! Break with the militarist government! Stand with the people!"

"Think about your parents and children at home! Who will take care of them if you die?!"

"We'll give money, one hundred dollars for each person who pitches in! Double the amount for anyone who brings another person!"

"Whoever kills Ikki Kiyonao will be awarded three gold bars! This is the opportunity, it will be gone after tonight!!"

Various voices of persuasion for surrender came from the iron loudspeakers on the opposite side. These voices did not shake the resistance will of these veteran Kwantung Army, but they aroused the anger of all the soldiers.

Shame! Such a shame! How could such a shameless traitor appear in the Imperial Japanese Army?
Colonel Ikki, who had been planning to retreat half-heartedly, suddenly lost his mind. He raised his command knife high and shouted, "Charge! Charge! Don't worry about the Americans, you must kill those traitors!"

"Colonel, please calm down! The enemy is trying to provoke us to come over!" Captain Mitsumichi Murata tried his best to pull his superior but was kicked to the ground.

"Baga! Stop talking! If we don't kill these traitors, how can we still be called His Majesty's soldiers! Everyone, draw your bayonets!" The irrational Ikki Kiyonao no longer paid attention to his adjutant, and destroyed the last chance of escape for these people.

"assault!!"

“Onboard!!!”

More than 200 soldiers, with bayonets pointed, charged forward with the determination to die, ignoring all the machine guns and artillery aimed at them, and rushed straight towards their compatriots who were trying to persuade them to surrender 300 meters away.

After running a hundred meters, for some reason, no one around them fell down. However, the Japanese army, led by Colonel Ichiki, was full of energy and no longer cared about this issue.

Boom boom boom! ! ! !

As the vanguard took a step forward, bursts of explosions were heard from the ground. These Japanese soldiers stepped into the preset minefield. Some were blown directly into the sky several meters high and then fell down, but the other soldiers did not stop their charge.

In the last hundred meters or so, Colonel Ikki could already see the heads of the traitors lying behind the sandbags on the opposite side. He didn't want to think about anything else now. The only thought in his mind was to chop off all these shames of the Imperial Army.

Suddenly, all the heads lay down, hugged their heads and covered their ears.

What's going on? Are those guys crazy?

Before the colonel could figure out what was going on, a row of black gasoline barrels appeared behind the traitors.

Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!! Boom!!!
A dull sound was heard, and the soldiers felt as if a drum was suddenly hit heavily next to their ears.

Colonel Ikki looked up at the sky and saw a dozen small black dots flying towards them, getting closer and closer, and one of them landed directly on the colonel's head.

boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The sweeping air waves were accompanied by earth-shaking roars, and "things" kept flying into the sky. Even the American soldiers hundreds of meters away felt a buzzing in their ears.

"What the hell has He come up with?!" Colonel Edson was stunned by the scene before him.

When the smoke cleared, the soldiers at the center of the explosion, including Colonel Ikki, disappeared from the spot, leaving behind all kinds of "parts"-like things spread out on the ground.

A little further away, the soldiers lying on the ground had no external injuries, but blood was flowing from their noses and ears. These people were shaken to death on the ground.

The soldiers on the outermost perimeter all fell to the ground with their weapons thrown aside. They were unable to fight and had completely lost their ability to resist.

More than a dozen large explosive packs exploded in the marching column, almost completely destroying this group of Japanese troops.

With the destruction of the last remnant of the army, the entire Ikki advance team was completely wiped out. In this battle, the Japanese army directly killed more than 20 people, people were injured, and about soldiers were missing (mostly those who were hit by the explosive packs head-on).

Kiyonao Imaki was hit head-on by a 6-kilogram explosive pack. Apart from a broken command knife, no one could distinguish him from the pile of small parts on the ground. As a result, he was initially counted as missing, and was not confirmed to have been killed until the end of the Guadalcanal battle.

This was just an uneven confrontation in the Battle of Guadalcanal, and due to the arrogance of the Japanese commander Imaki Kiyonao, the battle became more like a joke.

But the meaning of this battle is completely different in this time and space.

"Tian Kang Black Card, onboard!!"

boom! ! ! ! !
Following a roar from the dying soldier, thick smoke rose in the distance. This was because a seriously injured Japanese soldier detonated the grenade in his hand.

However, unlike in history where many American soldiers were dragged to death while treating the wounded and suffered heavy casualties, this time the task of identifying prisoners and wounded was handled by Iikuni Kojiro and his men. These guys knew their former compatriots too well and would run away as soon as they saw that the situation was not right.

An unconscious soldier was carried out, and his soldier ID card was taken out of his pocket by Iikuni Kojiro.

"Yoshi! He has only been in the army for half a year. He can be transformed. Take him there!"

Iikuni Kojiro and his New Japan National Army suffered heavy losses this time, so he set his sights directly on this group of unconscious wounded soldiers.

Of course, although the Japanese army was short of manpower at this time, the overall quality of the soldiers was still above the standard. The number of replacement soldiers who had served for less than eight months was not particularly large, and Kojiro only found out about twenty "seedlings" who might be converted among the wounded soldiers.

This made Iikuni Kojiro, who originally wanted to form a squadron, somewhat disappointed, but what he didn't know was that because of the battle last night, he had been watched by many people.

In the tent in the distance, He Chi lowered the curtain.

"What do you think about those Japanese soldiers?" He Chi asked Major General Vandergrift.

"Although I hate the Japanese, I have to admit that these guys have good individual qualities, especially their fighting spirit..." The major general paused, "Under the circumstances last night, these soldiers were able to launch a charge and even caused about 30 casualties on our side. This seems incredible. If they didn't have a stupid commander, I think we would have been in trouble last night."

He Chi nodded and said, "I agree with you. We can't put our hopes on the stupidity of others, especially when we will probably face thousands of such soldiers next."

"That's right. The Japanese dwarfs will not make the same mistake as they did tonight. The key is that we have no way to predict which direction they will start their attack from." Colonel Edson added.

"So, everyone, in your opinion, do we need to divide our forces to expand the defense zone near the airport?" Vandergrift looked at the others.

Just as everyone was thinking, He Chi suddenly raised his hand and said, "What if I can get the Japanese to attack from the same position?"

"That's unlikely. Although they don't look very smart, they are not fools." Someone objected.

"Of course it's possible. Have you forgotten why those guys who could have escaped turned around and charged back last night?" He Chi smiled mysteriously and took out two written manuscripts from his arms.

The next day, Colonel Evans Carlson stationed in Australia received two telegrams, one asking his assistant Roosevelt to pass it to the White House through personal channels, and the other was sent to a reporter named John Charles from the Los Angeles Times.

It is said that the first order the president gave after reading the letter his son gave him was
"Get ready, I want to meet that guy called Nanyun Chuichi."
