The heavens start from Changjin Lake

The matter of tempering them has been revealed. If they have the power to deal with a small unit of the Japanese army, it will be terrible.

During the time they were delayed on the road, the battle at Qiao's house became more and more intense. The strengthened company launched no less than five attacks on the Japanese army's firepower point, and only destroyed a machine gun firepower point in a forward position of the Japanese army. The remaining two platoons firmly occupied the front positions of the Japanese army and shot at the Japanese troops who counterattacked the front positions.

The Japanese army's offensive was fierce, and the shells of the grenadiers fell on the position without interruption, bursting out a series of roars.

"The little Japanese devil is up again."

In the dim night, a Japanese detachment of more than ten people launched a counterattack toward the forward position along the eaves on both sides of the street. The first one discovered was a soldier from the third platoon and one squad. He turned around and shouted, and was shocked to find that behind him A group of soldiers had been killed by Japanese grenade launchers.

Crouching on both sides of the street were two Japanese grenade launchers. Holding their grenade launchers, they aimed at the position captured by the Chinese army and started shelling round after round.

The projectiles from the grenade were dropped on the position almost free of charge, and the forward position could not be defended, so they could only retreat into the house.

One row was responsible for blocking the gate, while the third row occupied the second floor, using the shooting holes opened by the Japanese devils themselves to shoot at the Japanese devils shrouded in the twilight.

The first platoon leader was a smart man. He knew in his heart that once the Japanese army captured the house, all of them would die here, so he immediately ordered the second and third squads to fight out and occupy the houses on both sides of the street.

The battle was very fierce, and the two sides fought fiercely on the long street that was [-] meters long.

On the other side of the alley, cross the broken wall and enter a residential house. Xia Yuan lit a cigarette and squinted to observe the situation ahead, as well as the houses on both sides of the street, which had the charm of an ancient city.

This is not the center of Luodian Town. The houses are low and low, and as far as the eye can see, there are few two-story huts. The Japanese devils are very clever, occupying almost all the two-story small buildings near Qiao's house, and turning these two-story small buildings Carry out simple reinforcement to build a very solid machine gun fire point and defense fortress.

In particular, Qiao's house has completely become the center of the Japanese army's defense. It is very difficult for the national army to attack from the surrounding area.

"Scholar, how many shells are there?"

In order to take down Qiao's house, in addition to their own efforts, other troops also need to work together. The grenadier in the scholar's arms is an important weapon to tear through the Japanese defense line.

"Platoon leader, there are only ten left. I lost one on the road and I can't find it." The scholar responded to him.

"Ten is enough." Xia Yuan took two puffs of cigarettes, threw them on the ground and stomped them out: "The Japanese army is attacking the two-story building directly in front of us, Lao Zhao, you take Zheng Dayong over there first, and put the Put up the machine guns, there are our troops in that position."

"Okay." Zhao Shiguo kicked Zheng Dayong, and the two rushed out of the house with machine guns on their shoulders, disappeared into the dark alley in the twilight.

"The four of us will go to fight the Japanese devils' positions later." Xia Yuan checked the bullets in the clip and counted the grenades on his body.

There are still 79 rounds of bullets, and only three Japanese grenades are left. The number of grenades is not large, but it is not a problem. The battlefield is full of Japanese corpses, and they can be replenished by the corpses of Japanese soldiers.

Fight for war.

"go!"

After observing the general situation, Xia Yuan took him to the street and groped forward under the cover of the ruins.

Passing through a war zone, the noise in the ruins made Xia Yuan stop abruptly. He signaled Lao Lei and the others to stay on guard with guns in hand. Under the beam of the house, he saw a national army soldier covered in blood.

His chest heaved violently, he murmured, and the whites of his eyes rolled. Hearing the movement at the window, his dark hands touched the ground, trying to touch his gun, but his gun fell far away. Location.

The lower half of his body was pressed by the beam, and there was an iron nail on the beam, which penetrated his thigh and pinned him firmly to the ground.

"Chinese." Xia Yuan saw the soldier's uniform clearly and said.

Hearing Xia Yuan's voice, the man's eyes regained some color, and his mouth made a grunting sound. Xia Yuan slid down from the rubble, reached out to support the broken beam, and approached quickly with a gun.

The man in front of him looked extremely tragic, his body was pierced by three bullets, his thigh was nailed to the ground, and he persisted until now.

Her chapped lips squirmed, "Water, water."

The scholar behind got in and saw the soldier's appearance, so he couldn't bear it. He took out the water bottle from his waist and was about to fill him with water. The blood in his body is almost drained, if you give him water, it will only make him die faster."

The scholar was puzzled, but Xia Yuan did not explain much.

The quality of the troops of the national army is uneven. Many of them are strong men captured from the countryside. They have no experience in dealing with the battlefield and first aid knowledge. Many wounded lose too much blood, which causes thirst. , these wounded died.

If you lose too much blood, you cannot drink water. Drinking water will cause death.

The soldier in front of him was completely hanging with breath left. Xia Yuan stopped the scholar and asked: "Your injury is too serious. I can't save you. If you have anything else to say, just tell me. If you want to I can help you tell the person."

Facing these soldiers on the front line, Xia Yuan always maintains the utmost kindness.

"I, my name is Ding Kaijin, kill, kill four Japanese soldiers, enough, enough, let me drink water, I, I know that drinking water will kill you, drink, take a sip."

Xia Yuan looked at his scorched face, sighed silently, and nodded to the scholar.

The scholar carefully fed him a big mouthful.

Ding Kaijin moistened his chapped lips and asked tremblingly, "Yes, do you have any smoke?"

"Yes." With a cigarette in his pocket, the scholar took out a cigarette and put it in Ding Kaijin's mouth. He struck a match and lit it. Ding Kaijin took two puffs, his eyes gradually lost focus, and the cigarette on his mouth tilted and fell on the ground. on the ground.

"Platoon leader." The scholar raised his head and looked at Xia Yuan.

"Let's go, at some point, we'll be lying here like him."

"Platoon commander, if I lie here like this one day and you shoot me, I don't want to just wait to die."

"Ah."

"Stinky boy, run faster, you run so slowly with a gun in your hand, if you are chased by the Japanese devils, you will be chased to death."

Zhao Shiguo, carrying a light machine gun and full of ammunition, ran along the alley.

Zheng Dayong panted heavily from behind, threw off his legs, and ran fast, but couldn't catch up with Zhao Shiguo. The two rushed out of the alley and ran to the street. Zheng Dayong saw Zhao Shiguo rushing to the left, his eyes stare. "Old Zhao, Japanese devils, Japanese devils."

Bang bang bang.

The gun rang out, bullets flew over and hit the wall behind Zhao Shiguo, breaking him into a cold sweat, realizing that he had run to the wrong place, Zhao Shiguo chased after Zheng Dayong with a light machine gun on his shoulder, two People turned into the alley again, stepped on the broken rubble, and got into the ruins.

With the help of the broken wall and the broken ruins as cover, they touched the vicinity of the two-story building occupied by the national army. The gunfire intensified here. The hole that was opened was as big as a person.

"Old Zhao, how do we go up?"

The two men were carrying guns and hiding about ten meters away from the two-story building. In the darkness, they could clearly see that the Japanese troops were attacking the two-story building. They relied on the wall as a cover and kept attacking. Grenades were thrown into houses and the explosions were deafening.

"Go, go up, shit, I didn't see that the Japanese devils had already hit the door. We go up now, and we are throwing ourselves into a trap!" Zhao Shiguo's face was ugly, it was too dark, and he couldn't see how many Japanese troops stormed the second-story building , but it can be judged that this two-story building is definitely not allowed to go.

"Then what are we going to do? The platoon leader said that we are going to support the national army brothers here." Zheng Dayong put the light machine gun on the ground and wiped the sweat from his face.

Without Xia Yuan, Zhao Shiguo didn't know what to do next.

Hearing the gunfire from the second-story building, Zhao Shiguo said, "It doesn't matter, let's support them first, put the machine guns outside the fence, and clean up the Japanese devils outside the fence first."

"it is good!"

The two acted immediately.

The situation of the two-story building was not good. The Japanese army's firepower was very fierce. They used grenades to destroy the outer wall. The already fragile wall was shattered, making it impossible for a row of soldiers to rely on the outer wall to shoot at the Japanese soldiers outside the wall. The Japanese grenades kept falling on the damaged walls. The wooden structures of the houses were severely broken, and some even burned, emitting choking smoke.

"Platoon leader, let's withdraw. The Japanese devils' firepower is too strong. They have controlled the periphery, and we can't hide behind the bunker." The squad leader's face was blackened by smoke, and he kept coughing.

"No, we can't retreat. We have paid huge casualties to knock down the Japanese devils' forward positions. It is absolutely impossible to abandon the forward positions and retreat now." A platoon leader looked ugly and asked loudly: " What about Squad and Squad Three, do they control the outer positions?"

"Class [-] and Class [-] rushed out, but there was no sound. I don't know where they went." The squad leader said suddenly, "Could they have escaped?"

"Huang Xingsong of the dog day, if you say such depressing words again, believe it or not, I will shoot you." The first platoon leader would never believe that No. 20 of the second and third squads ran away so cleanly.

The first squad leader smiled wryly: "Platoon leader, I definitely didn't say anything depressing, but you have seen the current situation. The second and third squads don't have both sides at all."

"You wait, I'll take someone to take a look." A platoon leader called two people, and just rushed downstairs, there was the sound of light machine guns firing outside. Listening carefully, it turned out to be a crooked hand of the Japanese army. , not the Czech style of the national army.

His heart sank.

In the yard, a living soldier hid in a narrow corner, using a wooden plank to cover the shrapnel splashed by the Japanese artillery shells. He saw the Japanese soldiers outside the wall fell to the ground one by one, and he was pleasantly surprised, "It's our people." , Platoon Leader, our people have arrived."

He rushed into the house and told the platoon leader what was going on outside.

Sure enough, the two crooked handles clicked for a while, and the movement of the Japanese devils attacking outside was much less.

"Squad leader, take people and fight out." Seeing this, the leader of the platoon immediately knew that the opportunity had come, and immediately gave the order, and then rushed outside with two people to look for the second and third squads, but they did not find them nearby. To the figure of the second class and the third class.

His heart sank.

Is it true that everyone in Class [-] and Class [-] ran away as the monitor of Class [-] said?
The first squad leader was leading seven or eight soldiers to clean up the Japanese troops outside the wall. Then he met Zheng Dayong and Zhao Shiguo. The first squad leader stepped forward and said happily: "Brother, you guys came just in time."

"It's okay, these little devils have to kill them." Zhao Shiguo asked him again: "How is the situation now?"

"We occupied the Japanese Japs' forward position, but the second and third squads are missing, otherwise we would have cleared out the Japanese Japs outside." A squad leader squatted on the ground and ordered a soldier to stare at the street. Let the Japs get closer, and then stare at the two of them.

"Hey, I recognize you guys, what's your name, Xia."

"Xia Yuan." Zhao Shiguo reminded.

"Yes, yes, where is your platoon leader?" The first squad leader slapped his head and asked again.

"Our platoon leader has taken his men to fight the Japanese in front. Let us come over to reinforce you." Zhao Shiguo said, "How is the situation in front?"

"It's not optimistic. What we took down was the front position of the Japanese army, which cost huge casualties. In front, it was the rear position of the Japanese army. There were several light machine guns, and the heavy machine guns looked at them, forming crossfire."

The first squad leader squatted on the ground, pointed to the front, and continued: "We have a platoon that was beaten several times but failed to take down. The casualties were heavy, so we had no choice but to retreat."

After a pause, he asked again: "How many people did your platoon leader bring with him?"

Zhao Shiguo thought for a while and said, "Three people."

"Three or three people!?" The squad leader of the first squad was startled, and his expression seemed unbelievable: "Three people are going to attack the Japanese devils' positions, you platoon leader are not kidding, are you?"

"Four people to be exact."

"Four people can't do it. The crossfire of the Japanese devils is too fierce. Let alone four people, even forty people can't beat them." The first squad leader stared at a pair of eyes with disbelief.

"What's the matter?" Zheng Dayong asked.

"I have no choice but to pray that nothing happens to your platoon leader."

"Squad leader!!"

A platoon leader brought people over.

"Platoon leader, they are Xia Yuan's soldiers." The first squad leader said happily.

"That sharpshooter!?" The first platoon leader glanced at the two of them and nodded, "You saved us, thank you, you came in time."

The first platoon leader thanked him, and said: "The first squad leader, I didn't find the second and third squad leaders. I guess it's like what you said, they probably retreated." (End of this chapter)
