The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 642
Walking a hundred meters forward, I saw a ruins. The walls were covered with bullet holes. There were many stinking corpses piled up on the ground. A closer look revealed that they were soldiers of their national army. The Japanese devils had killed them. The body was removed and left here.

Everyone covered their mouths and noses, calling the Japanese devils beasts, and became more determined to follow Xia Yuan.

The Japanese reinforcements arrived. The defense line, which was originally guarded by only two detachments, suddenly increased in strength. The Japanese No. 18 Wing was able to concentrate the forces on the defense line.

The strength of the Japanese troops here has increased to the size of a small team. From the broken roofs of the ruins in the distance, the dancing firelight can be vaguely seen. The Japanese have lit a fire in the house. It is quiet all around. There are insects chirping, which can be vaguely heard. From far away, the chirping birds of Japanese soldiers could be heard.

All of this can be heard by listening to the sound and identifying the position, which is quite a clairvoyance and a good ear.

Xia Yuan kept the Japanese army's arrangement in mind and led them quietly close to the Japanese position. He caught a glimpse of the Japanese hidden sentry in the distance, turned around and gestured to a few people, then pointed to the position of the hidden sentry and said: A gesture of wiping the neck.

Everyone understood, put the bayonet on the gun, grasped it tightly, followed Xia Yuan, and moved forward cautiously.

The Japanese secret sentry was placed in the ruins. The mud and tiles scattered on the ground made a crunching sound when they stepped on them. Everyone gasped and tried their best to control the movements of their feet.

When he was more than 20 meters away from the Japanese secret sentry, Xia Yuan made a gesture to stop advancing. Under the shocked eyes of several people, he strode toward the Japanese secret sentry. When he was seven or eight meters away, he spoke. .

"Thanks for your hard work."

What came out was Japanese.

The Japanese in the secret sentry was stunned for a moment, then subconsciously responded: "It's not hard work."

Pfft, then he felt as if his neck was scratched by something sharp. He opened his mouth wide, trying to make a sound. When the words came to his mouth, he made a series of whooshing sounds.

The Japanese soldier tilted his head and fell into the hidden sentry.

Xia Yuan waved his hand, gesturing for them to come quickly. The few people who saw the gesture recovered from the shock and rushed into the secret post. They tore off the bullet bags and grenades from the Japanese soldiers and stuffed them into their arms. Zheng Dayong held them He squatted at the secret whistle with his gun on guard, his eyes full of vigilance, and nervously looked back at the situation inside the secret whistle.

After a while, a Japanese soldier was stripped clean of bullets, grenades, and a marching kettle.

"Brother Yuan, let's set up a few more hidden whistles of the Japanese. The bullet clips will be filled with bullets." Zhao Shiguo patted the bullet clip on his waist and was very happy. The bullets on the two Japanese soldiers were so... Many, they picked up the bodies of two Japanese ghosts and seized two hundred rounds of ammunition. The bullet clips on everyone's body were replenished.

The most important thing is that they exerted almost no effort. They simply eliminated two of the Japanese hidden sentries. If they work for a while, they will probably clean up all the hidden sentries arranged by the Japanese.

"Don't do too much, or you will be discovered." Xia Yuan walked out of the secret sentry and spoke calmly. The Japanese's secret sentry was on a shift system. Every once in a while, a Japanese would come over to take over. The more secret sentries destroyed, the more likely they would be discovered. The faster.

He had to steal a Japanese devil before he was discovered.

"go!"

Xia Yuan didn't explain much.

Secondly, there are not many hidden sentries arranged by the Japanese. There are only a few of them. They are separated by hundreds of meters. It is too troublesome to go back and forth. Just go there. With night vision and eagle eyes, the Japanese's hidden sentries can see clearly. He can basically figure out the location. They are all on several very important high points, overlooking the surrounding river beaches and ruins. The reed swamp is a good cover. Although the Japanese have placed a Japanese secret sentry in the reed swamp, they still They got rid of it.

This area can only be said to be temporarily safe. Xia Yuan did not take them to stay here for a long time, and kept digging deeper into the Japanese defense lines.

Just when Xia Yuan crossed the river to sneak attack the Japanese position.

At the national army position in the rear, a communications soldier quickly ran out from the battalion headquarters, came to the position of the third company, and found Lu Jingguang: "Company commander, the battalion commander asked you to come over."

Lu Jingguang built a ladder on the earthen house, climbed up the ladder, lay on the roof of the house, and observed the Japanese positions with binoculars. The Japanese were very rampant. They lit many bonfires between the house and the fields, and the communication could be heard. Hearing the soldier's voice, he put down his telescope, turned around and asked:
"What does the battalion commander want from me?"

"Company Commander, how do I know this? Could it be that what you just said was too scary?"

"Is it scary? I'm telling the truth." Lu Jingguang took back his telescope. Everything seemed normal in the Japanese position, so he ran down the ladder and said, "What happened with Xia Yuan? What does the battalion commander mean?"

"Company Commander, you are too bragging. The battalion commander suspects that there is no such person at all, and said that even if there is, he will let you take him over to have a look."

The communications soldiers at the battalion headquarters were quite helpless.

Previously, the commander of the third company ran to the battalion headquarters and told the officers in the battalion headquarters that their company had a genius who could hit the Japanese machine gun fire points with a gun. The grenades could be thrown further and more accurately than the artillery shells. The fourth company When the position fell, he held the position of the fourth company alone.

In short, the task of making Xia Yuan boast about his miraculousness, as if he was there, was not a big task. This incident eventually became known to other troops in the camp. In addition, the Japanese army stopped fighting and everyone was idle. This matter gradually spread, but everyone had their own defense zone. Many people wanted to see this legendary man, but they never had the chance.

Then, the news became more and more serious and mysterious, which alerted Lu Jingguang’s boss, Zhang Guangqi of the [-]th Battalion. He didn’t want to care about this matter. Several of his company commanders boasted about their achievements for more than a day or two. , especially Lu Jingguang, this guy is quite talented. In the Luodian battle, he proved himself by being able to enter with three companies.

However, in Zhang Guangqi's view, it was the reinforced company that suffered huge casualties and had no choice but to withdraw from the battle, and was picked up by Lu Jingguang before they defeated Qiaojiazhai. As for the sharpshooters and bombardiers he mentioned, they were completely false. Son.

He has been in the army for many years and has seen many sharpshooters. On the battlefield, when the enemy charges, he is sure to hit him every time. But he has never heard of anyone who can throw a grenade more than 100 meters away and hit the enemy's head accurately. You can even use a rifle to accurately shoot the Japanese machine gun fire points.

Are you kidding me?Is there really such a person in this world?In his opinion, there is no such thing. The battlefield is never decided by one person, but by the efforts of a group of people. As Lu Jingguang said, it is simply impossible for one person to lead them to conquer Qiao's house.Helplessly, more and more mysterious rumors spread among the companies in the camp, and even the fourth company was destroyed. When the Japanese crossed the river, it was this man who single-handedly pushed the Japanese back. There were Japanese ghosts floating on the river. The corpses were all his own doing.

Simply ridiculous!
Zhang Guangqi immediately decided to kill this evil trend and make everyone think that this thing is true. Then everyone will look forward to one person who can lead them to defeat the Japanese devils. That person is obviously not himself, or even some kind of To a certain extent, his prestige exceeds his own.

A person who is nothing but has caused everyone to talk about it.

Zhang Guangqi wanted to find out whether the sharpshooter and heroic bombardier Lu Jingguang boasted were true or false.

The communications soldier came with Zhang Guangqi's order and looked around, "Company Commander Lu, where is the sharpshooter you mentioned?"

Lu Jingguang said helplessly: "They crossed the river and went to the Japanese camp. You came at the wrong time. If you had been a few minutes earlier, you might have been able to see him."

When the communications soldier heard this, he became more convinced that Lu Jingguang was bragging. What a coincidence. When he came, the so-called marksman and bombardier had crossed the river. How could there be such a coincidence?

What's more, there are Japanese soldiers on the other side, and the superiors have not issued orders to attack the Japanese positions. What is he going to do when he crosses the river now?

The battalion commander was right, this was just a piece of fiction and didn't exist at all.

The communications soldier decided to tell the battalion commander the news and turned to leave. Lu Jingguang thought for a while, since it was the battalion commander who was looking for him, he still had to talk about it in person.

battalion department.

A kerosene lamp exuded a dim halo. Battalion Commander Zhang Guangqi, the adjutant, and the company commanders of each company sat around a small square table. Previously, Lu Jingguang brought back the news of the arrival of Japanese reinforcements. They did not believe the news that Lu Jingguang brought back. Not long after Lu Jingguang left, his superiors passed on the information that Japanese reinforcements had arrived at the river bank.

This attracted Zhang Guangqi's attention, and he immediately sent communications troops to notify the company commanders of each company to come to the battalion headquarters for a meeting. Most of the company commanders had arrived. Zhang Guangqi looked at the time and glanced at the people in front of Xiaofang's table, except for the fourth company who had died in the battle. The chief didn't come, and only Lu Jingguang hadn't arrived yet.

"Batalion Commander, I think it's better to send a communications soldier over to inform you." The commander of the second company said.

When he received the intelligence from his superiors, Zhang Guangqi had just sent out a communications soldier to find Lu Jingguang in order to spread the rumors about the so-called marksman and bombardier, but he did not notify him of the meeting.

Zhang Guangqi waited quietly and said, "There's no rush, it's still early."

The first company commander said: "This old Lu is really serious. If you insist on making up some rumors about a sharpshooter, many of us will believe it. Battalion Commander, you also know that when the battle reaches this level, even the fourth company will be defeated." , if a person like this comes out, he will not disturb our camp."

Everyone is very aware of this matter. When the soldiers are in a low mood, what would it be like if a sharpshooter who can kill the enemy suddenly appears? The soldiers in the camp have no culture, and many soldiers have no independent opinions. After hearing a few rumors, they became convinced.

It is certainly a good thing to have a marksman, but it should never be fabricated.

The Second Company Commander nodded and responded: "If it's true, it doesn't matter if everyone believes it. The key point is that this is something that doesn't exist at all. Everyone knows that the Third Company was able to take down Qiao's house only by strengthening the company." , the strengthened company is almost fighting the Japanese. The third company went up and picked up a leak. If we really want to push the third company forward, the third company probably won't even have more than 80 people left."

By coincidence, Lu Jingguang walked in from the door and heard the voice of the second company commander. A trace of anger flashed across Guo Zi's face.

"Old Qi, please stop talking." The first company commander on the side tugged at the second company commander. The second company commander turned around and saw Lu Jingguang. He closed his mouth and said nothing. Everyone in the room looked at Lu Jingguang and saw He sat down, Zhang Guangqi patted the table and said:

"Let's discuss business. According to the intelligence from our superiors, the Japanese reinforcements have reached the other side and strengthened the defense on the river bank, especially the front of our [-]th Battalion. According to inference, the Japanese strength is at least two squadrons, or even More."

"In order to cope with possible emergencies, each company must strengthen its defensive positions. Lu Jingguang, your third company has a heavier task. Most of the fourth company's positions must be left to your defense. Please pay attention in the next time. , the Second Company will be transferred back and focus on watching the river in Wodian."

Currently, the Fourth Company's position is defended by a platoon deployed by the Second Company, but as the Japanese army's strength on the other side of the river increases, their frontal strength also needs to be strengthened to prevent the Japanese army from launching a sudden night attack.

Lu Jingguang responded, nodded, and then said, "Battal Commander, I know you don't believe me, but it doesn't matter. Tonight, the deputy commander of our company crossed the river with a few people. There is no movement there now, I guess. They've succeeded."

"what?"

Everyone in front of the square table was stunned, and their expressions immediately showed disbelief.

The first company commander frowned and said, "Lao Lu, did you receive the mission? Or is this a decision you made without authorization?"

He glanced at Zhang Guangqi vaguely.

Sure enough, when the first company commander said this, Zhang Guangqi's face became a little ugly.

Lu Jingguang's face was calm: "We have been fighting in the direction of Baoshan for a day. It is only a matter of time before we start fighting here. Doesn't the first company commander think that the Japanese army's reinforcements on the river bank are just to prevent us from crossing the river? Have you forgotten the four How was the company destroyed? It was because of insufficient preparation. When the Japanese came, they made serious mistakes in their response measures. The Japanese's artillery fired a salvo and beat the fourth company to pieces. If it weren't for Xia Yuan, the Japanese The Japanese have already crossed the river from the Fourth Company position."

"The Fourth Company did not block the Japanese attack, but one person did it. Lao Lu, you are such a boaster, are you really not afraid of the battalion commander questioning you?" The first company commander squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Jingguang, "Or, you think Your so-called deputy company commander took his men to the other side of the river and waved us around to prove that your bragging was true?"
