Chapter 822: Defeating the 228 Wing (Chapter 2 is here today)
Artillery shells bombarded the surroundings of the 228th Regiment densely, and were mixed with many extremely lethal shrapnel and exploded at the same time; then streams of smoke and flames rose into the sky, and in an instant, the entire Japanese army was on the ground.
A tremor like a big earthquake.
There were constant sounds of gunshots and cannons everywhere, as well as various screams, flying sand and rocks, and smoke filled the air.
In short, the two armies were fighting at close range, and the sound of killing was loud.
"Peng! Boom! Boom!"
"Pa bang bang... bang bang bang..."
"Da da da... da da da..."
"Chi chi chi! chi chi chi! chi chi chi..."
As bursts of loud and earth-shattering explosions rang out, the entire Japanese army position could be seen bursting into flames, mixed with gunfire and machine gunfire as the Japanese army and Liu Feiyang's men fought desperately.
As the fighting became more intense, the entire city center was in flames.
However, the citizens in the city center also focused their attention on such a battle that was completely unexpected.
Especially the women, young people, and citizens who were defeated by Liu Feiyang's troops are paying close attention to this battle.
"These national troops fought bravely. Where did they come from?"
"Do you think these national army troops can defeat these damn Japanese troops?"
"You ask me, I don't know, but I heard from the British soldiers that the Japanese troops attacking this time seem to be a group army? With an army of more than tens of thousands, I think these national troops may not be able to withstand it.
There are so many Japanese troops!"
"They may not be able to withstand the Japanese army, but I think they will definitely be able to defeat the Japanese troops here. Look at the heavy casualties they suffered from those Japanese soldiers! There are many Japanese corpses everywhere!"
"Well done, these devils and bastards! My family was killed by them. If these national army troops hadn't suddenly appeared to save me, I would have been killed by them now!"
"I'm not much better than you. These inhumane devils ruined my wife and tortured her to death. My children were also tortured to death. I really want to kill these damn devils. I want to kill them."
Otherwise, if these beasts break my legs, I will definitely kill them and kill the Japanese! Kill the Japanese!"
"I hope God will bless these good people and enable them to drive all these damn devils out of our city center!"
"It would be great if more people from these national troops came, but there are too few people coming now! I'm worried that once the Japanese army launches a full-scale attack, they may be surrounded and suppressed!"
"There are quite a few of them! I think there are thousands of them! And they fight very bravely. Even the Japanese are no match for them!"
.......
.......
However, when paying attention to the battle situation, many citizens were also talking in low voices.
People who are also paying attention to the fighting here include office director Liao Zhi, traffic officer Li Yiqing, traffic officer Chu Xiaowen and others.
"You guys should go back to my hiding place quickly! Why are you so disobedient? Are you all here to watch the battle of these national army troops?"
"Curiosity killed the cat! Haven't you heard?"
Office Director Liao Zhi said with a very concerned tone.
Because traffic officer Li Yiqing and traffic officer Chu Xiaowen had to follow them to the scene of the battle even if they were killed to pay attention to the direction of the battle.
So he felt that it was dangerous to do so, so he kept persuading him.
"It's okay! As long as there is danger, we will leave as soon as possible. You must know that we are also traffic officers! We also need to perform dangerous intelligence work, so you don't have to worry too much about us!"
"Although I was scared and worried just now because the Japs captured the city center, now you see so many elite troops from the national army coming to fight with the Japs, I am no longer so panicked!"
"But now I really want to know which national army they are from. Their fighting power is so powerful! They can kill Japanese troops without any ability to fight back. They are really powerful!"
"This is the first time I have seen such a powerful National Army. In the past, I have always looked down on these National Army troops who were constantly being beaten by the Japanese troops. They were even beaten by our Eighth Route Army.
But that’s it!”
"But the national army unit in front of us now is completely different from the national army units we usually encounter, so I really want to know who their commander is and which unit number he has!
"
"Why have I never heard of their deeds before? With such a brave fighting style of killing Japanese soldiers, I believe this is definitely not the useless national army troops we usually see!"
"Why have I never heard of such a brave national army on the domestic battlefield?"
In response to the kind words of office director Liao Zhi, traffic officer Li Yiqing retorted emotionally.
"Me too! I have been a traffic officer in China for a while, but I have never heard of when such a brave and fighting force was born in China?"
"Who are they? I really want to know!"
Traffic officer Chu Xiaowen was also very curious. He watched Liu Feiyang's heroic battle from a distance and echoed.
"...."
Office Director Liao Zhi.
He was also said to be speechless,
Because he himself didn't know which army Liu Feiyang was commanding, and he had never heard of the other party's deeds.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
"Ah! Ah..."
But at this moment,
However, a ferocious group of mortar shells suddenly landed next to the captain of the 228th Regiment, Yuki Matsumoto, killing him and the Japanese officers and soldiers around him.
So after a series of miserable howls, the commander of the regiment, Yuki Matsumoto, and the Japanese officers and soldiers around him were turned into cannon fodder and went to meet their Amaterasu.
Facing Liu Feiyang's increasingly ferocious and heavy firepower attack, as well as the fact that all the Japanese captains and company captains had been killed,
The 228th Regiment also began to retreat from the city center area.
So the battle ended quickly.
Liu Feiyang's troops occupied the area around the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion, built their defenses, and prepared for the next round of combat.
.......
.......
The next day, when citizens in the city center began to dare to come out for activities,
"Big news, big news! Last night, the Japanese army and the mysterious forces fought in the city center. There were heavy casualties! If you want to buy something, hurry up and take advantage!"
"The Japanese army suffered a disastrous defeat in the city center! Thousands of elite soldiers were killed and injured!"
"What a miracle! The Japanese troops who attacked our city center were attacked by mysterious troops; a large number of them were killed and injured, and it was like a river of blood! What a battle to relieve one's anger!"
"Sell newspapers! Sell newspapers! Miracle in the city center, the Japanese army was severely attacked! There were over a thousand casualties and the city center has been evacuated. We can spend another day safely!"
Just when the citizens had not been out for a long time, and before they were anxiously discussing what happened in the city center last night and the war situation, suddenly the loud voices of newsboys were heard, shouting at the top of their lungs.
"Well, these newsboys can still sell newspapers at this time? Are there still newspaper companies printing newspapers for sale?"
"Do they still know which army the national army was in last night?"
Listening to the excitement and excitement of children and the loud sound of children selling newspapers, most Hong Kong citizens couldn't help but have the above thoughts in confusion.
But soon, they rushed over to buy the newspapers from the children.
When they bought the newspaper and opened it, they could see photos of the Japanese who were defeated by Liu Feiyang's troops.
"Well beaten, well killed! These damn devils, it's best to cripple them like this!"
"Bring me ten newspapers like this. These national army troops were so relieved last night. They saved us! Otherwise, I wouldn't even be able to see the sun this morning!"
"That's right! It's best to kill these damn devils like this. I'm going to send banners to these national army troops later to thank them for their life-saving grace!"
"I also want to send them supplies and money to thank him for saving my family's lives!"
"Do you know where those national army troops are now?"
"I saw that they seemed to have occupied the area around the Governor's Mansion and were building fortifications!"
........
........
Looking at the photos of the Japanese who were killed and injured in the bombing, as well as the photos of the defeated evacuation, all the citizens who bought the newspapers couldn't help but cheered and shouted excitedly.
Especially those patriotic people, the enthusiastic young students who are demonstrating against Japan, the upper class who have not fled, and people from all walks of life. They all want to know about the battle with the Japanese combat troops in the city center last night.
Which army is it?
As a result, many citizens and anti-Japanese organizations noisily flocked to the newspaper office that reported the news to learn about the situation.
Of course, the other thing is to take a look at the Nationalist troops who have occupied the area around the Hong Kong Governor's Mansion and have not yet evacuated. I want to see their style, and I want to express my gratitude to these Nationalist officers and soldiers who saved their lives.
Of course, there are many citizens who want to donate the little food or money they have at home to Liu Feiyang's troops. There are even some reporters mixed in, who want to interview the team that defeated the Japanese army.
Liu Feiyang's unit of the 228th Regiment.
In short, many people were flocking to the location of Liu Feiyang's headquarters.
Including some traitors and Japanese intelligence agents were also mixed in, preparing to spy on the true situation of Liu Feiyang's troops, and then report to the Japanese 38th Division.
