The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 664 Capture
After entering the Japanese machine gun bunker, two soldiers were sitting on the ground, sipping soup, and the air was filled with fragrance.

The seventh squad leader glanced around and found that, as the two soldiers said, there were a lot of Japanese weapons and equipment here. Helmets were placed on the ground, guns and ammunition were piled in a pile, and food was cooking on the fire, steaming. The aroma is tangy.

"Xu Yingyang, squad leader of the seventh squad of the fourth company, are you attacking the east side?" Xu Yingyang asked.

"Well, sit down and eat something to cushion your stomach first." Xia Yuan finished the last mouthful of soup, burped comfortably, and pointed to the opposite side.

"No, we'll eat again after the Japanese's positions are conquered." Xu Yingyang shook his head: "If the Japanese's positions are not conquered, I won't be able to sit on the ground, and I won't be able to make a living eating."

The veteran said: "This is hypocrisy. The Japanese have not discovered it yet. Now, if you have a full meal, you can fight the little Japanese. If you fight hungry, you will never be able to defeat them."

Xia Yuan admired him. He pointed at the guns and ammunition behind him casually and said, "You can take these things as you like. I have only eaten seventy percent full now. When I am full, I will attack the Japanese positions."

"Thank you!" Xu Yingyang decided in her heart and waved her hand, indicating to the soldiers behind her to change their weapons and equipment.

It is recognized and undoubted that the Japs have good guns. After replacing the Type 120 rifle, each soldier carries thirty rounds of bullets. The Japs have a lot of bullets, one soldier carries [-] rounds. When Xia Yuan killed them, they had just consumed a very small part of their ammunition.

There were thousands of captured rifle bullets piled into a pile, and the yellow-orange bullets shone brightly in the firelight.

Even if one person takes away thirty rounds, there is still a small pile left, which is a considerable amount.

Xia Yuan was very generous, "Take them all away. Thirty rounds is too few. If you are going to fight the Japanese, don't charge blindly. Just shoot. If you want to fight, just hit them hard."

He couldn't take these bullets with him anyway. Even if he was equipped with Japanese bullet clips, he could still take away a few hundred rounds. Besides, the bullets were not valuable, not as valuable as the Type [-] rifle.

He made money because he planned to recruit troops in Jiading. With so many troops defeated, it was somewhat unjustifiable not to raise a team.

According to his estimation, he could raise a reinforced company no matter what.

Although it will not play a decisive role in the entire Songhu battlefield, it can at least make him feel comfortable in the Songhu battlefield.

Xu Yingyang thanked him and gave the remaining bullets to veterans with better marksmanship first, while some recruits kept thirty rounds of bullets.

Afterwards, Xu Yingyang took them outside to prepare, leaving only Xia Yuan and the veteran in the trenches.

Perhaps it was the enthusiasm of Xu Yingyang and the others in fighting, or perhaps it was what Xu Yingyang said just now that made the veteran feel uneasy and uncomfortable eating.

"If you want to go out, you can go out first and wait for me outside." Xia Yuan ate leisurely, but he was not in a hurry.

It had only been an hour since they had captured the Japanese's forward position, and the night had just darkened. The fighting outside was still fierce, and a few small fashions would not stop.

He had enough time to act.

After walking out of the trench, Xu Yingyang and a dozen soldiers were repairing the trench and transporting weapons and ammunition. Seeing Xia Yuan coming out, Xu Yingyang said: "I heard from Lao Quan that you are very powerful. You defeated this position. I didn’t even fire my gun, I just followed you and picked up the leaks, killing four or five Japanese Japs. I’d like to ask for your help later.”

Xia Yuan waved his hand: "My target is the Japanese machine gun firepower point. I will take down the front position. Later, you only need to attract the Japanese firepower from the front. Leave the rest to me."

While eating, he thought of a countermeasure.

Xu Yingyang led the troops to fight the Japanese. He then circled to the flank of the Japanese and used grenades to attack the Japanese on the ground. The Japanese could never hold on.

There were very few Japanese troops left in front of them. Most of the troops were sent to the east side for defense. Xia Yuan only made visual observations. The Japanese troops directly in front were about a small team of about 50 people. They had previously been sent to the forward position for support. , were wiped out by them and have not yet returned. It is estimated that this Japanese army did not expect that their people were already dead.

Xia Yuan squinted his eyes, observed the surrounding terrain, and then said: "The Japanese like to use artillery bombardment when fighting. Their grenades are very powerful. Don't let your people gather together. It's best to spread out. Six Just walk alone, so the Japanese grenades won't cause much casualties to you."

"Thanks for the reminder." Xu Yingyang squatted on the ground and stared for a long time, but couldn't tell anything. Looking at Xia Yuan's appearance, he seemed to know the Japanese positions well.

"You have enough ammunition, so don't rush forward. Wait for me to go around from the flank and blow up the Japanese machine gun fire points and other things, and then you can rush forward again."

After hearing this, Xu Yingyang felt a little uneasy: "Would it be too risky for you to go alone? I'll give you a few people."

"Since I can lead the veteran alone to knock down the Japs' positions, I can lead a dozen of you to beat up the Japs in front."

Xia Yuan was the best at positional warfare, especially at night. He was like a fish in water. Even if the Japanese army brought over howitzers, they wouldn't be able to use them.

His positional warfare experience was maxed out when he went to Shangganling. The several battles he experienced since then were nothing compared to Shangganling.

As for the Japanese enemy's position battle, that is even more childish. The Japanese enemy is hiding and not attacking now, so the initiative is in his hands. With night vision, the position is so big that even if he can touch the Japanese devil's face , they may not be able to discover it.

This is where his confidence lies.

During the daytime blockade, he defeated the Japanese infantry, but was unable to defeat their artillery, but this was not necessarily the case at night.

The action begins.

The veteran wanted to follow Xia Yuan. He said he was following because he wanted to learn from Xia Yuan in fighting. Xia Yuan had very rich combat experience, which he could not see in the squad leader. The Japanese were very powerful, but in front of him, that Just like a little brat.

One person took down a position without any support, and without any help. He didn't even fire a shot, just relying on grenades.

And when the Japanese did it themselves, it is estimated that when the Japanese soldiers behind heard the sound of the grenade, they would also think that it was a grenade thrown by their own people.

The most important point is that he believed that by following Xia Yuan in the war, he would not only be able to kill the Japanese, but also survive.The fighting on the east side intensified, and the Chinese and Japanese sides suffered heavy losses. However, the fighting on the west side had not yet begun. Commander Qiu of the [-]st Regiment stood on top of the ruins of the wall, observing the fighting on the other side of the river with a telescope. For a moment, "West The attack on the side has probably failed. Go ahead and send another company to try to cross the river."

"Yes!"

"Wait!"

Suddenly, gunfire came from the west side. Commander Qiu immediately adjusted the focus of the telescope and looked to the west. He could vaguely see the muzzle flash, which alerted the Japanese troops on the river bank. Machine guns rang out and rifles rang out. The national troops in the west crossed the river and fought with the Japanese.

"It's done. As long as it's done, it can reduce the pressure on the troops on the east side. It's best to knock down the Japanese positions."

Commander Qiu was still worried. He stood on the wall and observed the battle situation on the front line. He did not even go to the headquarters.

The [-]st Regiment had gone through so many battles and suffered heavy casualties. Even after resting for a few days in Jiading and recruiting new recruits, it was still not fully staffed. Many soldiers came to the front line with injuries. These wounded soldiers were placed on the front line. In the rear, once there are not enough people in the front, they have to take over.

It was quite difficult to organize two battalions of troops, but what he didn't expect was that the troops of the two battalions would be consumed so quickly. The battle started at eight o'clock and has only lasted three hours. The battalion's strength has been depleted, especially when crossing the river. Only one-third of the battalion has reached the other side of the river. If they cannot defeat the Japanese position and they want to withdraw, the success rate is very slim.

Commander Qiu's hands were shaking. If he couldn't defeat him, he would really have to send the wounded soldiers to the battlefield.

What does it mean for a regiment to send wounded soldiers to the battlefield?

No one knows better than him.

However, the battle in the western position went more smoothly than Captain Qiu expected.

Xia Yuan relied on his terrifying grenade-throwing skills to blow up the Japanese troops on the ground. The battle only lasted half an hour. Under Xu Yingyang's dull eyes, they successfully rushed to the rear position of the Japanese.

Rushing into the trench, the corpses of the Japanese soldiers and the wounded soldiers were still lying in the trenches. Before they had time to retreat, the veterans rushed over and ended the lives of the wounded Japanese soldiers with a bayonet.

"Hurry up and get your people into the trenches and prepare to fight. The Japanese counterattack troops have arrived."

Xia Yuan rushed over. He saw the Japanese squad moving quickly in the darkness and quickly arrived at the rear position.

The Japanese army's position was very large and their troops were spread out. In order to eliminate this small group of Japanese troops, Xia Yuan used up all the grenades on his body. Only then did he eliminate this group of Japanese troops. Now another group of Japanese troops came over, with not many troops. There were only a dozen people, which showed that the Japanese were at the end of their rope.

"A squad of more than ten people are coming from the northeast corner. They have entered the position. Hurry up and hide your men. Form a group of two. You can take advantage when the troops are in close combat."

Xia Yuan warned, glanced at the veteran, and said: "You know the situation of the Japanese the best, so stay here to help them. I will look for opportunities alone to see if I can find any. I will give you all a grenade." They were reimbursed.”

The veteran immediately understood what Xia Yuan wanted to do. After Xia Yuan left, he said to Xu Yingyang: "We want to attract the Japanese devils. There is no need to fight them hard. Unless the Japanese devils rush over, we are fighting them." If you don't fight, just defend."

"Ok!"

Xu Yingyang saw Xia Yuan's true strength and did not refute.

Xia Yuan is their strongest combat example at the moment. He was able to knock down the rear positions of the Japanese all because of Xia Yuan. Most of the Japanese corpses at his feet were killed by him alone, even if they killed them. The injured were all injured by Xia Yuan.

With a commander with such a powerful fighting ability, they just need to obey orders quietly and not cause any trouble.

Sure enough, after a while, a detachment of Japanese troops came quickly along the communication trench for reinforcements. They were divided into two groups, each of six, and moved along the trench in the direction of Xu Yingyang. After a while, they collided with Xu Yingyang's soldiers. , the two sides met in the trench, and the atmosphere was tense. The Japanese soldiers responded very quickly. Due to the narrowness of the trench, a Japanese soldier rushed over with a Type [-] rifle.

Immediately, a Chinese soldier rushed forward to fight, but his spear stabbing skills were far inferior to that of the Japanese. The Japanese were very cunning and stabbed the Chinese soldier in the abdomen very quickly. The soldier instinctively used his gun to go to the head, but he didn't know it. Falling into the Japanese devil's scheme.

But he saw the Japanese ghost shooting, and the bayonet emitting cold light stabbed directly towards his heart.

Chi!
There was a solid sound of penetration, and the moment the bayonet was pulled out, the bright red blood soaked into his clothes in an instant, and the strength of his body seemed to be drained, disappearing without a trace.

"Hey, stupid Chinaman!"

The Japanese soldier spoke broken Chinese, which was actually Manchurian, and reached out to the national soldiers behind him: "Come here, I want to duel with you!"

boom!
With a gunshot, blood splattered on the Japanese soldier's chest. In the dark night, a figure quickly floated over the trench. The figure disappeared. A grenade flew over from the dark night and landed on the heads of the Japanese soldiers with a bang. Go up and blow up the heads of these Japanese devils.

The national soldiers reacted, and one soldier shouted: "Come on!"

The national soldiers behind him rushed forward with guns in hand and wiped out all the Japanese soldiers who were stunned by a grenade.

"One group has been eliminated, and the other one should have gone west. A small group of Japanese troops was so aggressive that they actually split into two groups. They wanted to wipe out all the attacking national troops, haha."

Xia Yuan turned on his night vision and locked his eyes on the Japanese soldiers moving quickly in the trenches. He stepped on the bumpy ground and rushed towards the Japanese soldiers quickly.

In front of the Japanese army, a large number of Chinese soldiers were waiting quietly. They guarded several places where the Japanese army might appear, and quietly waited for the arrival of the Japanese army. Their helmets were washed clean by the river water, but after the battle just now, The whole body was covered with black mud again.

With dusty cheeks, he squatted on the blockade, holding his rifle in both hands, quietly waiting for the Japanese to arrive.

Suddenly, a dark figure appeared in the trench in front, and with a flash of artillery fire, the soldiers in front saw it. It was a Japanese soldier wearing a khaki military uniform and a helmet with a mesh rope.
