The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 10 “Achievements” are brilliant

The enemy's second round of artillery fire came soon...

The position instantly turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Burning bombs.

In order to retaliate, the Japanese actually used extremely cruel incendiary bombs. For a moment, screams were heard on the battlefield and the smell of burnt corpses filled the entire battlefield, making one unable to help but feel sick.

Inside the Xiaomagou 1st Battalion command post.

"How are the casualties?" Yang Ruifu asked with a worried look.

"Reporting to the camp, 19 people from the first company were killed and more than 30 were injured, and more than half can still fight!" the battalion staff quickly reported to the first battalion commander Yang Ruifu.

"Where are the Japanese troops?"

"It's not clear yet, but the first company commander reported that a soldier from the third platoon shot more than 20 Japanese soldiers alone..."

"A man shot more than 20 people and didn't lie about his record?" Yang Ruifu was so shocked that his jaw almost dropped.

"No, many people on the position saw it, and the number of people shot was only a lot more." The battalion staff officer said, "They themselves were dumbfounded, and they don't know how the soldier did it. Anyway, one shot kills. The Japanese were so frightened that they retreated, and we were able to calmly deal with the second round of artillery fire from the Japanese, otherwise more than half of the casualties this time would have been light!"

"Who is this soldier? I want to see him, right away!" Yang Ruifu ordered. This is an excellent publicity target. Not only can he claim credit, but it can also boost morale.

He has a capable person under his command.

At this time, the Japanese began to attack again!

The battle was extremely fierce.

This time the Japanese actually sent an entire squadron, under the command of a second lieutenant officer, to launch a wave-like charge against the positions stationed by the first battalion and the first company.

Perhaps he was stimulated by the unexpected number of casualties in the failure of the last attack. This time, the Japanese frontline commander actually wanted to capture the position of the first company at any cost, and his fighting style was unusually fierce.

The artillery fire preparations this time were even more intense than the last time. In just three minutes, the number of shells dropped was comparable to the number of shells dropped in the first ten minutes of shelling, and heavy artillery was also added.

Every time a shot came down, the ground beneath me felt a strong vibration. The first battalion's position was almost flattened from being riddled with holes. The trenches dug so hard and the various bunkers and firepower points built were almost completely destroyed by one round of shelling. It was all destroyed.

This Japanese seemed to be really angry, and he was bound to capture the Maojiazhai position where the 1st Battalion was located, break through the right-wing position of the national army, and achieve the purpose of attacking Shanghai North Station in a roundabout way.

Once the station is captured, it will be equivalent to cutting off the transportation lifeline of assistance from the rear. Soldiers, food and ammunition will not be transported to the front line. Why not fight this battle?

The ultimate goal of all Japanese attacks in Zhabei was the North Station.

Although Cheng Mo has awakened a special skill that can slow down the trajectories of cannonballs and bullets in his eyes and predict the impact points of bullets and cannonballs, this prediction ability is also limited, and he can only ensure that he Or people near him can dodge under reminder, but beyond a certain distance, unless there is a means of instant communication, he will not be able to sense the situation of the entire battlefield.

Under his reminder, the battlefield survival rate of the three platoons and two squads reached almost over 90%.

As for other squads, some have lost more than half, or even 70%, of them. This round of attacks has completely reduced their combat effectiveness.

Although they withstood the attack and defended their position, they paid an extremely heavy price. Only less than thirty people were able to evacuate alive.

The third row actually occupies less than half.

This little devil is too cruel!

Battalion Commander Yang Ruifu was heartbroken and bleeding, but he looked at Wu Jianfeng, Cheng Mo and others who had withdrawn from the position with extremely incredible eyes.

In one platoon, more than half of them survived. Not counting those who died, but all of those who survived had their eyesight.

The most exaggerated thing is that they also seized two crooked machine guns, two grenade launchers, a mortar, and dozens of 38-guns from the battlefield...

Who can tell him how this group of people did it?
  "Reporting to the camp, luckily, our platoon had better luck. When the Japanese bombarded us just now, I don't know what happened. The area we were guarding was about 30 meters wide, but not many shells fell... "Wu Jianfeng and Cheng Mo have already agreed on the same point of view. If some things cannot be explained clearly, it is better not to explain them at all.

I believe you a ghost!
  First Battalion Commander Yang Ruifu almost spat blood out of his mouth.

"Didn't you say that there was a soldier in your third platoon who shot and killed more than 20 Japs? Which brother is he, stand up and let me see?" Cheng Mo also knew that he had gone too far for a while and became the most powerful person on the battlefield. My handsome boy, receiving an award for meritorious service is definitely an honorable thing for a soldier, but at the same time, it is also easy to be targeted by the enemy.

Especially with the party-state's awareness of secrecy, if there is a grand propaganda report, by then, our own people may not recognize it, but the devils will get it first.

For the sake of my life, but also for my own mission and future.

"Report to the camp, the person who shot the Japanese was not a soldier of our camp, he was a non-staff member." Wu Jianfeng shouted.

"What, it's not from our camp?" Yang Ruifu was even more surprised, and now he was happy for nothing.

"Camp, let him speak for himself." Wu Jianfeng winked at Cheng Mo. His eloquence was limited, and he couldn't tell the truth no matter what.

"Hello, Battalion Commander Yang, my name is Cheng Mo. I am a clerk at the Six Banks Warehouse of the Salt Bank. I am not affiliated with your department, but I have temporarily joined your department to fight the Japanese." Cheng Mo briefly introduced his identity.

"Cheng Mo, is that the one who was called away by the brigade last night?" Yang Ruifu was somewhat impressed.

"Reporting to Commander Yang, I just went to the brigade headquarters to do some business, that's all." Cheng Mo explained calmly.

"In the second round of the Japanese attack ahead, did you kill more than 20 people in one go..." Yang Ruifu turned to look at the staff officer behind him.

"There are twenty-six Japanese in the camp, including a Japanese second lieutenant." Wu Jianfeng quickly agreed.

"Yes, twenty-six, and a Japanese second lieutenant!" Yang Ruifu repeated.

"Captain Yang, actually it's not that many. Maybe they counted the number of people they shot and killed on me..." Cheng Mo glanced at Wu Jianfeng and others behind him.

"The Japanese second lieutenant was shot by you, right?"

Cheng Mo hesitated for a moment and nodded: "This seems to be it."

"Cheng Mo, you have such great marksmanship and are a natural soldier. Leave one battalion to work with my brother. I will let you be the squad leader first. No, platoon leader, what do you think?" Yang Ruifu took two steps forward and approached Cheng Mo. Mo stood in front of him, smiling like Hua'er, and said enthusiastically.

"Battle Commander Yang, I was requisitioned because the Sihang Warehouse has no place to go. I have to go back to work after the war is over!"

"What's the point of your job? How much does the Salt Bank pay you per month?"

"25 yuan, plus the bonus." Cheng Mo hesitated and said, Brigadier Peng is so desperate, can you still give me money?

Yang Ruifu coughed in embarrassment. The platoon leader of the German Arms Division basically had the rank of second lieutenant. The second lieutenant's monthly rated military pay is 32 yuan. In fact, it is impossible to pay the full amount. Only in wartime can he get double pay, and in normal times can he get yuan. The incense has been burned.

Even if he, the battalion commander, had no extra income, he would still have less than a thousand yuan a year. The battalion commander was a major, and his fixed salary was 80 French currency a month.

Being a soldier and fighting in the war is not only dangerous but also very hard and the salary is not high. It is not comparable to working in a bank. It is easy and high-paying. Even fools know how to choose.

"Cheng Mo, now is the time when the country and the nation are in crisis. As a descendant of the Yan and Huang Dynasties, shouldn't we stand up and join the army and kill the enemy to serve the country?" Yang Ruifu said righteously.

"If everyone becomes a soldier, we can defeat the Japanese, then we don't have to work so hard. To resist Japan, we must gather the strength of the entire nation, twist it into a rope, and use our strength in one place. As long as all walks of life do not If you succumb to the power of the Japanese invaders, do not humiliate your compatriots, do not engage in civil war, do not become traitors, and work hard to do your own thing, you are contributing to the Anti-Japanese War. Battalion Commander Yang, do you think I am right?" Cheng Mo replied slowly.

Following the Kuomintang and being chased away by the Japanese like a lost dog, it would be better to find an organization and go to fight guerrillas behind enemy lines.

I finally traveled back in time, but I still don’t know how to choose the path?

Cheng Mo made up his mind that if the national army was in Shanghai, he would join them in fighting the Japanese. Once they evacuated, he would not be able to accompany them.

"In a word, just follow me and fight as much as you want, okay?" Yang Ruifu was at his wits end, this guy couldn't get enough of him.

"Okay, but after this battle, you have to let me go!"

"make a deal!"
