The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 651 Timely
The scarlet blood was very dazzling, and the scholar was shaking a little, and he didn't even have the courage to look at the wound.

Blood was flowing, and the flesh and blood of the wound turned white. I don't know if the blood had dried up, or if I could see the bones inside. The wound was very deep, but fortunately the entire arm was not cut off.

"Chen Shusheng, please bear with me for a moment." Zheng Dayong pulled some strips of cloth from his body and tied up the scholar's wound with a rope.

"Ho!" The scholar was trembling all over. He kicked his feet hard on the ground, his palms clung to the soil, and his teeth pressed tightly against each other. The tendons on his neck were clearly visible.

Zheng Da's hands trembled, and after finally tying them up, he sat on the ground as if he was exhausted.He looked up at the scholar, his eyelids were closed and his face was very pale.

"Scholar, scholar." Zheng Dayong quickly got up, stretched out his hand to explore the scholar's nose, and breathed an inexplicable sigh of relief, "I'm not dead. It's good that I'm not dead."

He was sitting on the ground, and the soil above his head was falling down. The Japanese artillery shells were hitting hard. They were behind the second line of defense and were still attacked by stray bullets from the Japanese army. The scholar was hit by a bullet from the Japanese army. If stray bullets were injured, one can imagine how tragic the situation on the second line of defense was.

Just as Zheng Dayong thought, the infantry and artillery coordinated and the artillery fire began to extend backwards. The Japanese infantry launched an attack on the precarious position. The second line of defense only had a reinforced platoon. After another round of artillery bombardment, the resisting Chinese soldiers Not much anymore.

The only machine gun fired was clicking, and the Japanese grenadier quickly took up a stance behind the infantry.

A bullet whizzed from the side and penetrated the head of the Japanese grenadier who was aiming at the machine gun fire point. His body seemed to have been whipped by a long whip and he fell to the ground.

The Japanese soldiers around him were instantly alert, lying on the ground and pointing in the direction of the bullet: "Flannel!"

The six Japanese soldiers noticed this, held their guns, separated from the team, and searched in the direction of the triangular bullets. Their movements were very fast and vigorous. A Japanese soldier climbed up the broken wall and just climbed over, landing on the ground. on the ground.

Chi!The bright bayonet penetrated his body, stabbed out from his back, and pierced the earth wall behind him.

"Hey!" A Japanese soldier poked his head out from behind the wall, and his expression changed when he saw this scene.

Xia Yuan moved sharply and quickly, turned around and pulled out the bayonet from his waist, and swung it out violently. The bright bayonet flew out and pierced the Japanese soldier's face.

"what!"

Screams rang out, and the Japanese soldier who was clinging to the wall lay on the ground. The Japanese soldiers attacking from behind immediately became cautious and chose to surround the house that had been collapsed by the shells from both sides.Xia Yuan killed two Japanese soldiers, one outside the wall and one inside the wall. He pulled the grenade off the Japanese corpse inside the wall, pulled it and threw it randomly in one direction. With a roar, there was a vague sound in the wall. Amidst the loud sound of artillery and gunfire, a muffled groan was heard.

His eyes moved slightly, Xia Yuan raised his feet, rushed forward quickly, climbed over the wall, and saw two seriously injured Japanese soldiers.

"Don't be reincarnated in Japan in your next life." Xia Yuan held the bayonet, raised the knife in his hand, and killed the two Japanese soldiers cleanly. Blood sprayed on his palms, warm and sticky, and wiped them off the Japanese devils. With the grenade on him, he quickly rushed away without taking the bullets.

While entangled with several Japanese soldiers, the Japanese grenadiers had knocked out the only machine gun firepower point of the national army. A platoon of soldiers could not withstand the crazy Japanese attack, and the position was in danger.

He quickly threw grenades and fired quickly, destroying the Japanese who rushed forward. However, one person's power is limited after all. The Japanese army was very careful in attacking. They knew that there was a sharpshooter on the national army position and would always use it when attacking. Take cover to hide.

This made these Japanese devils more cautious. They hadn't discovered the Chinese yet, so they became bolder. They rushed into the national army's position. They saw many Chinese who were tied up with iron chains. They were very thin. Skinny as a stick, when they saw them rushing over, these people picked up the ridiculous gun barrels, all the bullets were fired, and there was no bayonet on the gun head.

These Japs laughed at the stupid Chinese people.

The soldier surrounded by the Japanese could not understand what the Japanese were saying. He was holding a gun and shouting to give himself more confidence. Unfortunately, the Japanese could not even look at him or even fight for him. At the opportunity of bayonet, a Japanese soldier raised his gun and aimed at the Japanese soldier who was bound by iron chains.

The soldier yelled and was about to rush up with a gun. The iron chain around his ankle restrained him and he fell heavily to the ground, causing a group of Japanese soldiers to laugh. The Japanese soldier who raised his gun and aimed at it sneered and pulled the button. After the gunshot, the Chinese soldiers on the ground struggled for a while, but there was no movement.

"attack!"

The Japanese squad leader held a small pistol and pointed at the national army position.

Whoosh, a bullet pierced his palm, knocking the small pistol out of his hand. Half of his palm was shattered, and blood spurted out continuously. He was stunned for a short time, and his palm became numb and he lost consciousness. Soon, a heart-wrenching wave came. The pain started to spread from the palm of my hand, as if it was tearing the nerves and tearing the flesh.

Screams floated out from behind the broken wall.

All the Japanese soldiers were shocked and quickly looked for bunkers.

They realized that the Chinese sharpshooter must have arrived!
And it's nearby!

"Grenade, shoot hard in front and blow him out!" The Japanese squad leader's hand began to feel excruciating pain. He endured it and ordered to the surrounding soldiers.

The two Japanese soldiers immediately set up the grenade tube, regardless of whether they could see it or not, and stuffed the shells into the grenade tube. After two dull metal collision sounds, among the ruins of the wall in the distance, There was a lot of dirt flying up.

A Japanese soldier heard the sound and cautiously stuck his head out to observe. He did not think that the Chinese marksman's marksmanship was accurate enough to lift his Tianling Cap with one shot.

He made a mistake in his bet. The bullet pierced the hat on his head with a swish, and indeed lifted his Tianling Cap. He only saw blood soaring. The Japanese soldier's body hit the ground heavily, and then there was no movement.

Although Xia Yuan contained the strength of a Japanese detachment, the attacking Japanese strength reached a squadron, and they cooperated with each other. A soldier quietly withdrew from a place where Xia Yuan could not see, and the Japanese troops who attacked reached a squadron. Bian discovered the Chinese sharpshooter and informed the squadron leader.

The squadron leader was a smart guy. He immediately sent two troops to the front of the pinned unit. The Japanese had already cooperated with each other. Their soldiers had very strong individual qualities. The two troops came closer and attacked Xia Yuan. Especially deadly.

Xia Yuan, who has eagle eyes, quickly realized that something was wrong. His original intention was to contain this enemy and buy time for the national soldiers who were confronting them head-on. However, the current situation is that the gunshots around him are becoming less and less, and the second line of defense is The battle is ending, much sooner than imagined.

Xia Yuan thought that the national army would be able to hold on at least until noon, but he did not expect that just three hours after the battle began, the first two lines of defense of the [-]th Battalion had collapsed much faster than he expected.

The Japanese army surrounded them, and Xia Yuan did not want to fight with them anymore. There was no doubt that the position of the [-]th Battalion had been lost, and the rear did not have any thoughts of counterattack. "At this time, when the Japanese army has not yet established a stable foothold and launches a counterattack, there is still a chance to drive the Japanese out of the second position."

"It's a pity that Zhang Guangqi did not organize a counterattack force."

He was a little disappointed, thinking that Zhang Guangqi was a different battalion commander. In this case, Xia Yuan did not need to engage in such a meaningless battle. Even if he eliminated this Japanese army, the Japanese army's subsequent reinforcements could still come over.

The Chinese army had no intention of counterattack, and had basically abandoned their positions along the Sitang River. They continued to struggle, just like the clown in the eyes of others. The Japanese had not yet discovered his exact location, but they had basically discovered his direction. The Japanese army has a lot of troops, including at least one reinforced platoon.

"The fighting along the Sitang River should be basically over. The national army has failed."

The Japanese army's crossing of the Sitang River meant that Wusongkou was completely occupied. It was basically impossible for the [-]th Brigade to counterattack the Japanese army along the Sitang River.

Xia Yuan quickly retreated with his gun in hand. While he was walking through the ruins, he was looking for the scholar and Zheng Dayong.

Without him, the two of them would most likely not retreat with the main force of the national army. They might be in a corner. After all, they had been following him for a while and had learned some guerrilla warfare.

When Xia Yuan left, he told them not to stay on the second line of defense. If he wanted to stay, he should stay behind the second line of defense, or follow the [-]th Battalion and retreat until it reached the second line of defense. Line of defense.

At present, the [-]th Battalion showed no sign of retreat, and the main position was basically lost. The situation of the [-]st, [-]nd, and [-]rd companies could be imagined. He didn't care so much. He wanted to find Zheng Dayong and the scholar first.

The defense line of the main position is 300 meters wide. It is difficult for a reinforced company to defend it. Once the Japanese reinforcements arrive, it is inevitable to capture the main position. It is not easy to find the two people in this 300-meter width direction.

Xia Yuan found a house, climbed up the wall flexibly, climbed along the wall to the top of the house, turned on his eagle eyes and scanned the surroundings, but found no trace of the two of them in the visible area.

Suddenly, I heard a gunshot from about 100 meters away from the right. I was startled and quickly jumped down from the wall, moving quickly along the broken road in the direction of the gunshot.

At this time, Zheng Dayong had already encountered the Japanese scouts. This was a reconnaissance scout with only five people. They discovered Zheng Dayong and fired. Zheng Dayong shivered and hid behind the bunker, holding on tightly. Hugging Czech, who had empty bullets, his forehead was covered with dense, tiny beads of sweat.

He held a bright bayonet in his left hand, and his hand was obviously shaking uncontrollably.

Zheng Dayong's courage all came from the Czech gun in his hand. Even if the bullets were empty, holding the empty gun would make him feel at ease. But after all the bullets were empty, and the Japanese soldiers rushed over, he could only hold tight. Hold the bayonet and prepare to fight these Japanese devils.

"Here, the Chinese must be hiding here."

"Be careful, he might sneak up on us."

"Cunning Chinese people!"

These Japanese soldiers were chirping and talking like birds. They were getting closer and closer to where Zheng Dayong was hiding. Their voices were clearly audible. Zheng Dayong no longer knew whether he was going to escape. Once he escaped, he would be discovered by the Japanese.

"Fight!"

Listening to the chirping sounds of the Japanese, he thought of the dead Zhao Shiguo. It was these Japanese who killed Zhao Shiguo. He would not let these Japanese go. He held the bayonet and his eyes were ruthless, suppressing the fear in his heart.

He heard Xia Yuan say that hatred is your power.

Zheng Dayong was afraid in his heart, so he used Zhao Shiguo's death to increase the strength of his inner anger. He threw the Czech in his arms to the ground, clutched the bayonet tightly, and saw the Japanese plaster flag sticking out from the cracks in the ruins in front of him. A group of Japanese soldiers wearing khaki military uniforms jumped in.

Zheng Dayong rushed over, and there was a clang. The helmet hit the dirt, making a sound of collision and friction. The bayonet was pressed against the chest of the Japanese, and a gun was placed in front of them, making Zheng Dayong's hands unable to breathe.

The Japanese had a ferocious face, holding on to the gun with both hands, and shouting: "The Chinese are here with me, come and save me! Come on!"

The four Japanese soldiers heard the noise and quickly moved towards the direction of the noise. Just as they crossed a broken wall, a gunshot rang out. The Japanese soldier who rushed over first had blood blooming on his chest, and he fell straight back with a mouth full of blood. Blood spurted out, and after struggling for a while, there was no movement.

Zheng Dayong shook his body when he heard the gunfire, "Scholar!"

With a slight effort, the Japanese soldier under him turned over and pressed Zheng Dayong under him. The gun barrel was placed across Zheng Dayong's chest and he held it tightly. Zheng Dayong felt the upper part of his chest. The stinging pain caused his breathing to slow down a bit.

He knew that the scholar's shoulder was seriously injured, and running out at this time was tantamount to seeking death. He used all his strength to push up the gun barrel by a fist's distance, and shouted with a ferocious face: "Don't come out, don't come out." !”

The Japanese didn't understand, so they sat on Zheng Dayong and gnashed their teeth, as if they wanted to kill him.

boom!
A bullet hit the Japanese soldier's forehead, and blood spurted out, all over Zheng Dayong's face. He felt the strength in his body suddenly loosen, and he pushed away the Japanese soldier's body that was lying on him, and picked it up. He picked up his gun, rolled and crawled to the bunker, leaned against the bunker, checked the ammunition first, and then said: "Brother Yuan, Brother Yuan, is that you?"

"You brat, didn't you say he was a scholar? He was injured."

Xia Yuan stretched out half of his body from the wall behind, raised his gun and aimed it into the distance, gesturing for him to come over.

Zheng Dayong was extremely happy to see that it was indeed Xia Yuan.

"Be careful! I'll cover you! Get the grenades on the little Japs as well."

"Hey."
