    Chapter 1003 The end of the road

    Cao Guozhu paid the price for his bookishness and Bodhisattva heart. He saw with his own eyes that a wounded Japanese soldier had an arm broken off by a bombing and was lying in a cave groaning in pain. At his order, a soldier went up to bandage him.  Unexpectedly, this wounded Japanese soldier with only one arm stabbed the chest of the soldier who was bandaging him with a bayonet. The young soldier died in Cao Guozhu's arms.  {}

    The snow-white gauze in his hand was dyed red by blood. This was a soldier who was less than twenty years old. He looked at his company commander with unwilling eyes, but could not say a word. At that moment, Cao Guozhu's heart felt  The softness was severely scratched by the sharp blade, and the hard heat inside became substance in reality. He knew the difference between animals and humans.

    After that, the combat team led by Cao Guozhu shot and killed all the remaining Japanese soldiers when they encountered them. Even he himself had no psychological barriers at all when he took action. Along with his team, there were four or five other teams.  , separated by a distance of more than 300 meters, echoing and covering each other.

    When they searched a small valley, a veteran who was the vanguard suddenly made a gesture to stop advancing. The squad leader listened carefully, leaned into Cao Guozhu's ear, and whispered: "Company commander, the vanguard found a  There seem to be a lot of people in the cave. I listened carefully just now and there seemed to be a radio transmission. Maybe we have found a headquarters of the Japs? "

    Cao Guozhu's heart tightened inexplicably. He started searching for the remaining Japanese soldiers in the morning. Except for one or two sporadic resistances, the 15th Army had been completely beaten to pieces. By dusk, here  Suddenly he found a cave that seemed to be the headquarters of the Japanese army. It might be a big fish, or at least a division headquarters. His nervousness mixed with excitement made his body tremble.

    He ordered the operator in a low voice, "Notify the nearby groups immediately and move closer to us. I'm afraid we can't solve the problem with our small force. After a while, two or three groups nearby came closer. Cao Guozhu had something in his hand.  He had more than 60 troops, but he still felt that the troops were not enough.

    Hesitating whether to launch an attack immediately, at this moment, a group of Japanese soldiers suddenly emerged from the cave. There were sixty or seventy people. The equipment was not bad. There were more than a dozen crooked light machine guns. Then, another  Several officers came out carrying command knives and bastard boxes on their backs.

    Cao Guozhu was anxious. The Japanese army was trying to escape. If they were not annihilated here, it would soon get dark. These Japanese soldiers who had slipped through the net had gone deep into the mountains. It would be very difficult to find them. After gritting his teeth, Cao Guozhu shouted.  "Hit", the submachine gun in his hand was the first to spit out tongues of fire.

    The distance between the two sides was only fifty or sixty meters, which was almost the standard for an encounter. One side was unprepared and frightened, thinking only about how to escape. The other side was a victorious army, but it was in the dark and suddenly took action with more than sixty submachine guns.  They spurted out flames together, harvesting the lives of Japanese soldiers wantonly.

    The battle was short and fierce, but within ten minutes, with dozens of submachine guns roaring and dense rain of bullets pouring over their heads, dozens of Japanese soldiers who were caught off guard and had no terrain to use were covered with bullets.  Kong's body was revealed, and only five of the soldiers in the company were injured.

    Cao Guozhu led the soldiers and rushed towards the cave like a whirlwind. When they were still more than thirty meters away from the cave, another group of Japanese soldiers rushed out of the cave and set up a crooked light machine gun at the entrance of the cave. A dense rain of bullets hit a company of  The soldiers were overwhelmed at the foot of the hillside, but Cao Guozhu was relieved. With this posture, he was sure that he had caught a big fish, which should be a general-level big fish.

    Cao Guozhu guessed correctly. There was indeed a Japanese command structure hidden in this cave. However, Cao Guozhu's guess was a bit smaller. It was not a Japanese commander such as a division commander, but the Japanese commander who was responsible for the main attack on the east road.  When the commander of the 15th Army, Lieutenant General Yamashita Fengwen, and Cao Guozhu's group were confronting the Japanese army, bursts of gunfire rang out from different directions. It seemed that each search group had entered the core area of ??the battlefield.

    As night fell, Yamashita Fengwen in the cave no longer had the usual arrogance and arrogance of Japanese soldiers. His face was ashen and his eyes were lifeless, flashing with a desperate and terrifying death light. If he hadn't moved his eyes occasionally, he would have seen.  It showed a little bit of life, and it was almost suspected to be a corpse.

    Yamashita Fengfumi's spirit was already on the verge of collapse. The sudden ground artillery fire and combined attack from air planes during the day always made him think it was a nightmare. More than 50,000 brave and capable imperial soldiers were beaten in an instant.  Everything was in disarray, and all the command systems were paralyzed. After hiding in the cave, Yamashita Fengwen found that he was alone.

    He just sat blankly in the damp cave, listening to the roaring and tsunami-like explosions outside, while the staff around him listened to the sound of the radio.The shouting at the top of his lungs was like a noise coming from a distant place. There was only one sentence in his heart, the pride of the Imperial Japanese Army, the Fifteenth Army was over.

    He didn't even feel when the fierce attacks by the Japanese division troops stopped. Small groups of Japanese troops were scattered one after another and entered the cave. At dusk, the skirmishers who gathered around Fengwen at the foot of the mountain,  There were already more than 200 people, including a division commander and three or four regiment commanders. These Japanese officers, who had been so aggressive and arrogant just a few days ago, gathered together, relatively without tears, what fighting spirit and fierceness, what bushido spirit.  , were blasted out of the sky by the overwhelming artillery shells and bombs of the *** Division's artillery and aviation, and some were just desolate and fearful.

    Yamashita Fengwen was almost demented and could not count on him. The division commander temporarily assumed the role of commander. Even if he had a conscience, the commander could not leave anything to the Chinese under any circumstances, not even the body. Then  It will destroy the military power of the Imperial Japanese Army.

    All the breakout plans revolved around how to protect the Commander, avoid the Chinese soldiers searching the mountain, and escape from danger as the sole purpose. Finally, when it got dark, gunshots rang out all around. For these people trapped in the cave  It was a great inspiration to the Japanese officers and soldiers.

    This shows that the soldiers of the empire, despite being in such a difficult situation, have not stopped resisting. More importantly, they can better and more conveniently cover the commander-in-chief's breakout. The first wave of more than 60 Japanese soldiers came out  The explorers, unfortunately, encountered Cao Guozhu's group and sent them all to see the emperor with a bullet.

    The Japanese division commander was anxious. The cave was discovered by Chinese soldiers. As time passed, a large number of Chinese soldiers were recruited and surrounded the cave. It was really like catching a turtle in a jar. There was no need to break in. As long as he was hungry for three days, he would just lie there.  In the cave, wait for the Chinese soldiers to come and capture the prisoners, and there is also a lieutenant general commander.

    The small group of Chinese troops surrounding the entrance of the cave must be defeated. Under the strict orders of the division commander, the Japanese troops in the cave were divided into several waves. Regardless of the dense rain of bullets fired from outside the cave, they rushed out desperately. Those regiment captains,  Cao Guozhu, who was also incorporated into the commando team and was guarding the entrance of the cave, felt that it was incredible that these Japanese soldiers kept rushing out despite knowing that they would die if they came out.

    No matter what, the Japanese soldiers came to the door themselves, so as not to rush into the cave and increase casualties. Wave after wave of Japanese soldiers fell like moths to fire under the muzzles of the company's soldiers. Finally, there were no more Japanese soldiers.  Soldiers rushed out and the gunfire stopped.

    The corpses of Japanese soldiers were piled up in a thick layer outside the cave. Under the feet of Cao Guozhu and more than 60 soldiers, there were piles of shiny bullet casings. The smell of gunpowder smoke and blood filled the valley. The soldiers  They exchanged excited glances silently. The battle was a happy one, and the little devil had to die by himself.

    In the cave, Yamashita Fengwen was surrounded by only the division commander and three telegraph operators. When he heard the gunshots outside subsided, Yamashita Fengwen knew that all his efforts were in vain. He said to the division commander sadly.  : "Mr. Gong Qi, our last moment has arrived. I don't want to be captured by the inferior Chinese people. I don't want to be kept in a cage like an animal and let these Chinese people visit and make fun of me. Let us be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor here."  !¡±

    Gong Qi was very calm. It seemed that when he set foot on Chinese soil with a sword and gun, he had already anticipated today's ending. He said: "It is Gong Qi's honor to accompany the Commander and be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor.  "After he finished speaking, he touched his feet and took on a posture of looking forward to death. However, no one noticed that a hint of timidity flashed in his eyes.

    Yamashita Fengwen looked at the three telegraph operators who were trembling with fear, and said: "Please, gentlemen, send the final telegram to General Touchi Daiichi of the temple. After General Gong Qi and I have served His Majesty the Emperor, you guys will be in our  Pour gasoline on your body, and then you must be loyal to His Majesty the Emperor."

    Cao Guozhu and the others stared at the entrance of the cave for more than 20 minutes, but never saw the Japanese troops rushing out. Suddenly, there were several shouts and screams coming from the cave, but they could not be heard clearly. Cao Guozhu couldn't help but feel anxious. The Japanese troops  Commander, what tricks are you trying to play again?

    He led the soldiers and rushed into the cave. Under the dim candlelight, the cave looked ghostly. Two radio stations were still flashing traffic lights. Three Japanese soldiers, who looked like wooden stakes, stood blankly beside the radio station on the ground.  There were two corpses lying on the ground. The command knife was inserted into their stomachs, and a pile of dirty blood flowed out. Next to them, there was a small barrel of gasoline.

    Cao Guozhu was stunned. He didn't expect that this would be the case. Several soldiers came forward and pushed the three Japanese radio operators to the ground. After searching them, they found that these three guys were interesting. They didn't even have a knife on them. The soldiers  Their actions seemed to awaken the three Japanese prisoners from some kind of nightmare situation.

    He screamed and twisted his body desperately, as if trying to break free from the soldiers' big hands.The commander waved his hand, and several guns were pointed at their heads. Cao Guozhu, who knew a little Japanese, hurriedly stopped the soldiers' actions. He heard something from the constant shouting of the three Japanese prisoners.  Son's name.
