Their previous two charges have proved that under the enemy's superior firepower, they have no chance of rushing through.
Coupled with the unfavorable terrain, no matter where they were, they would be covered by enemy machine gun fire. Isoda Saburo had been lying on the ground for half an hour, not even daring to raise his head too high, otherwise he would be very likely to be hit by his head. Kill the flying heavy machine gun bullets.
"Retreat, a small group will cover it, and the other troops will retreat immediately. Otherwise we will all die here." Isoda Saburo said loudly.
Hearing this, the Japanese squadron leader gave the order without hesitation: "A small team will cover, and the others will retreat immediately. Maintain order and avoid chaos."
Saburo Isoda¡¯s order was also his idea. Because of the predicament at this time, only retreat can save some strength, otherwise they will all die in this desolate snowfield.
After the order was issued, the Japanese soldiers, who were already a little unable to withstand it, immediately began to move closer to the cliff. The first team responsible for covering began to push forward, using the rifles and machine guns in their hands to resist the advancement of the independent regiment soldiers.
There are more than ten ropes on the edge of the cliff. The Japanese soldiers no longer care about the various equipment on the cliff. They began to retreat nervously and orderly to the bottom of the cliff under the command of each team leader.
When they come up, for safety reasons, each rope usually only carries the weight of two or three people at the same time. But during the retreat, because the situation was too urgent, there were basically five or six people hanging on each rope.
This can improve the efficiency of their retreat, but it also increases the risk of the rope breaking.
As the commander of the operation, Isoda Saburo did not retreat with the first batch of soldiers. Instead, he chose to stick to it, where he continued to command the dozens of soldiers responsible for covering and fought fiercely with the independent regiment.
Zhang Dabiao and his soldiers have advanced a distance of 200 meters. They are now less than 100 meters away from the Japanese army. By the light of the flares, he could clearly see that the Japanese army was retreating to the edge of the cliff with the help of ropes.
"Where's the flamethrower? Move the flamethrower forward and spray flames over there. Burn all the little devil's ropes." Zhang Dabiao shouted.
When the soldiers carrying flamethrowers heard this, they immediately shouted for the machine gun fire from behind to provide them with fire cover, and then began to advance rapidly.
Under the intensive firepower of heavy machine guns, the remaining dozens of Japanese soldiers were so suppressed that they could not even lift their heads.
"Throwers ready!!" The soldiers carrying flamethrowers shouted loudly as soon as they advanced to a predetermined distance.
The nozzle of the spray gun was now aimed at the Japanese army in the distance.
This place is more than 70 meters away from the Japanese army's position next to the cliff, but this is enough for their flamethrowers to cause damage to the Japanese army.
¡°Don¡¯t be stingy with fuel, spray with all your strength!!¡± the team leader in charge shouted loudly.
With his order, the soldiers immediately pulled the trigger of the flamethrower. Tongues of fire immediately erupted from the mouth of the spray gun, like the breath of a giant dragon, instantly melting the snow in front of them.
These flames sprayed onto the Japanese positions almost in the blink of an eye.
¡°Boom!!!¡±
The loud noise from the flames echoed in the ears of the Japanese soldiers. The Japanese soldiers in front were wrapped in flames in an instant, screaming and rolling on the ground.
And those Japanese soldiers who were lucky enough not to be sprayed began to retreat back.
It¡¯s just that they have no retreat, and if they go further, they will reach a cliff.
Taking advantage of the opportunity for the Japanese army to retreat, Zhang Dabiao immediately ordered the troops to move forward again. Groups of independent regiment soldiers, holding rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and ammunition boxes, advanced several tens of meters forward.
At this time, the living space of the Japanese army has been compressed to the limit. The distance between the two sides is only a few dozen meters. At such a distance, some veterans can even shoot accurately.
A Japanese soldier, faced with such a desperate situation, had an emotional breakdown. He screamed and jumped towards the cliff behind him.
At this moment, the flamethrower showed its power again, another concentrated flame spray.
This time they were closer and caused greater damage to the Japanese positions. Several ropes tied to rocks and trees were burned directly.The Japanese soldiers who were hanging on those ropes and kept retreating to the bottom of the cliff fell directly when the ropes broke.
At a vertical height of hundreds of meters, the dozens of Japanese soldiers who fell off the cliff only had time to scream before they fell to the ground. Then with a loud noise, it fell onto the hard stone below and turned into a pile of meat paste.
At such a height, if it were not for a small chance of hanging on a branch, it would basically be dropped to death.
With the burning of flamethrowers, the suppression of heavy machine guns, and the pressing of infantry. The number of Japanese soldiers at the top of the cliff began to decline rapidly. In just over ten minutes, only a dozen people were left standing there. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
