On October 31, the Japanese army that finally broke through the second line of defense of Zhuyuan Ridge wanted to take Zhuyuan Ridge in one fell swoop, and Nishiyama Masao pushed the command post forward to the front line, launching three attacks in one morning, Lin Junxiong shuttled through the trenches with his shadow, looking for an opportunity to turn the tide of the battle.

After the Japanese army retreated, Lin Junxiong ordered the troops to hurry up to eat lunch and rest as soon as possible. He and Pan Zhiyang sat on the edge of a cliff, looking at the marks left by these battles not far away, both of them were amazed, maybe there was really not much time left for them.

"Regiment commander, the ammunition is already insufficient, at most you can still insist on resisting a round of Japanese attacks, there are only more than 200 people who can still fight on Zhuyuan Ridge, maybe it has created a miracle to be able to hold out for seven days on Zhuyuan Ridge, but today we will face the end of the miracle."

"Lao Pan, we and the brothers have done our best, more than a thousand people, there are less than three hundred people left, Fang Yun's side is almost out of ammunition and food, and it is no longer possible to stop the Japanese army from filling the gap, it seems that everything will end soon."

"Commander, I know you have a lot of worries in your heart, but I also know that you will not leave here, if there is an afterlife, I will fight Little Japan with you."

"Hehe, it's a deal. Sometimes when you think about facing a desperate situation, no matter how much worry you have, it is useless, and many things that cannot be done can only become regrets. I also thought about leading the troops to evacuate here, but once we retreated, we didn't know what unforeseen losses would be brought to the large army, disrupting the entire deployment, and besides, holding Zhuyuan Ridge was the order of the division headquarters and the headquarters, and we also made a commitment to the soldiers. It's easy to take a step back, but the debasement of personality and faith will leave us with indelible shame and blame. ”

"That's why I never advised you to leave, Captain, do you miss your little daughter-in-law?"

"Hey, let me tell you a secret, I haven't touched her yet, and I want to marry her, but in this situation, if I am not careful, she will become a widow. Maybe my departure will bring her a moment of sadness, but after a period of pain, she will usher in happiness, but there is no longer me in that happiness. ”

"I also miss my wife and children, the last time I saw them was more than half a year ago, the old mother's eyes were blurred, the child was only five years old, without me, my wife was going to suffer."

Looking at Pan Zhiyang, who couldn't stop the tears from flowing, Lin Junxiong patted him on the shoulder, and said with some sadness: "I don't know how long the army of the party-state can hold out, but it's a pity that we can't hold on to the country and the family anymore, and then in the face of the Japanese attack, we can only fight with them hand-to-hand after the bullets, Zhuyuanling can't hold it, and we will also go to another world, I hope it can be calmer there." ”

The two of them sat quietly, perhaps thanking the reluctance in their hearts, perhaps burying the reluctance in their hearts, or praying for the safety of everyone's small family after they left.

After a long time, Wei Xin hurried over with the dog left.

"Regiment commander, Gou Yu said that he found that there were more than 1,000 national troops stationed in Zhuyuan Village, and they arrived three days ago."

Lin Junxiong was taken aback, and looked at Wei Xin and Gou Yu suspiciously. Gou Yu whispered: "We have been doing something for the logistics of the chiefs, three days ago let a few people go back to the village to get food, I saw that they had not returned for a long time, so I sneaked back to see the situation, and found that many people were stationed in the village, I observed, there should be more than 1,000 people, and the people who arranged to go back to get food were also detained by them." ”

Lin Junxiong's eyes were full of blood-red anger, his fists were clenched, and after a long while, he said to Pan Zhiyang in a hoarse voice: "Old Pan, it should be Meng Lei's miscellaneous pieces, you bring the noble guards over and urge them to rush to Zhuyuanling immediately, I and his account must be calculated well after this battle is over, otherwise these nearly a thousand brothers will be aggrieved and will not be blind." ”

"Hey, there are many villains in the national army who can't distinguish between the important and the important, what kind of rejuvenation is the party-state talking about. Regiment leader, I may not be able to call him if I go, but out of fear of you, if you go, Meng Lei may not dare to delay, and he can rush to reinforcements immediately. ”

"But"

"Commander, there is nothing to do, don't worry, I will lead the remaining brothers to hold on until you return."

"Okay, let's fight and retreat next, don't fight hard with the Japanese army, just delay until the reinforcements arrive, Lao Pan, you must take care, wait for me."

Lin Junxiong held Pan Zhiyang's hand tightly, and then said to Wei Xin: "Let Gao Shang lead the guard company to Zhuyuan Village later, and I will take a few people over first." ”

Lin Junxiong took the eight members of the shadow team straight to Zhuyuan Village, and when they arrived at the entrance of the village, the soldiers of the 90th Regiment who were in charge of guarding saw that several people who were angry did not dare to step forward to stop them, Lin Junxiong pointed a gun at a company commander and said coldly: "Take me to see Meng Lei." ”

The company commander trembled slightly and said, "Commander Lin, be careful of misfire, I'll take you to see Commander Meng." ”

Meng Lei was lying on a wicker chair in the courtyard enjoying the warm sun, when suddenly there was a noise outside the door, and then he saw Lin Junxiong with blood-red eyes, he turned over and stood up, pulled out the pistol on his waist and pointed it at Lin Junxiong.

Lin Junxiong slowly walked towards him with an expressionless face, stopped at a distance of five meters, and said coldly: "Head Meng, it's so comfortable." ”

Meng Lei knew that he was at a loss, and he thought about the various possibilities that would appear, if Lin Junxiong left safely, his military career would be over, although there were people above, but the relationship between Lin Junxiong and Xue Yue was well known, and he was likely to be unable to escape death, his other hand was clenched behind his back, and his palms were full of cold sweat.

Soon, more than 100 people from Meng Lei's guard company poured into the courtyard, and when they saw Meng Lei pointing a gun at Lin Junxiong, they also raised their guns to aim at a few people, Meng Lei breathed a sigh of relief, withdrew his pistol, and hid behind a few soldiers to look at Lin Junxiong.

Lin Junxiong didn't have the slightest fear, stared at Meng Lei and said, "Commander Meng, is this planning to kill people?" ”

"Hmph, my 90th regiment rushed to help, just arrived in the morning, ready to rest and rush to Zhuyuanling in the afternoon to reinforce, Commander Lin came with such momentum, is it easy to bully Meng's 90th regiment?"

Lin Junxiong suddenly burst out laughing, laughed bitterly and held back his tears and said: "Three days ago, Regiment Commander Meng arrived at this Zhuyuan Village, but saw that the soldiers of my 89th Regiment were fighting hard in front, and you took your so-called 90th Regiment to rush to the aid to enjoy peace here. ”

Lin Junxiong stomped again to look at Meng Lei's guards, and said loudly, "Are your hearts all blinded?" At such a time of national disaster and family feud, Meng Lei wanted to watch my 89th Regiment annihilated because of the humiliation of his inferior skills last time, but what about you, have you forgotten the responsibility of soldiers to protect their families and defend the country? ”

Meng Lei was afraid that Lin Junxiong would move his troops, so he hurriedly said to the soldiers: "Don't listen to the nonsense surnamed Lin, he is so bold to break into my regiment headquarters and bully my 90th regiment, as long as you listen to my orders and execute them on the spot, I will explain to the division headquarters and Shangfeng." ”

The soldiers of the guard company hesitated, wanting to obey Meng Lei's order, but when they saw Lin Junxiong and the others who were fearless, they were afraid and didn't dare to step forward.

Meng Lei has already made up his mind to solve Lin Junxiong without doing anything, and the explanation afterwards depends on what he says, only when Lin Junxiong is dead, he can feel at ease, he slowly raised the pistol again.

Suddenly, a chaotic burst of gunfire came, and soon Gao Shang rushed to the gate of the courtyard with dozens of people, he walked into the courtyard, glared at Meng Lei fiercely, and then said: "Commander Meng will also kill us, before I came, I had already sent a telegram to the division headquarters and Commander Xue, and the 90th regiment was delayed in reinforcing Zhuyuanling after arriving in Zhuyuan Village, I don't know who is carrying out the order?" ”

Meng Lei was shocked, came back to his senses, and immediately ordered the guard company to put down his gun, squeezed out a smile and stepped forward to Lin Junxiong and said: "Commander Lin, misunderstanding, I immediately ordered the troops to set off, rushed to Zhuyuanling for reinforcements, and swore to help the 89th Regiment hold its position, they are all the army of the party-state, at such a critical moment, don't talk about any personal hatred, what do you say, Commander Lin?" ”

Thinking of the brothers who were fighting bloody battles on Zhuyuan Ridge, Lin Junxiong knew that this was not the time to quarrel, he sighed and said, "I hope that Commander Meng can really be so righteous." ”

"Meng graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, naturally knows the duties of a soldier, Meng has also been praised by the chairman by name, and he will swear to repay the chairman's favor, Commander Lin, you can rest assured."

Seeing that Meng Lei brazenly pulled out Chiang Kai-shek as a shield, Lin Junxiong shook his head, ready to rush back to Zhuyuanling with people, he was afraid that Pan Zhiyang and the troops would not be able to support it, and when he walked to the door, Lin Junxiong suddenly turned his head and said to Meng Lei: "Then can Commander Meng send some troops to rush back with Lin to reinforce first?" ”

"Oh, Captain Lin, you can't trust Meng's personality?"

"It's not that I can't believe it, but Zhuyuanling is in urgent need of reinforcements."

Meng Lei held his head high, with a look of embarrassment on his face, which means that you led people to my regiment headquarters on a rampage, which made me very satisfied with face, why should I listen to you now, what's the matter, you have to beg me in a low voice.

Wang Biao and Zhao Xing were so angry when they saw Meng Lei's face that they clenched their fists and were about to step forward, but they were stopped by Lin Junxiong.

Lin Junxiong didn't know what Meng Lei was thinking, thinking that the brothers in the bloody battle couldn't wait, he took a few steps forward, gritted his teeth, bowed down and said: "Lin begs Commander Meng to immediately send troops with me to reinforce, Commander Meng is high-minded, and Lin is grateful." ”

Meng Lei laughed proudly a few times, and then pretended to be cordial and helped Lin Junxiong up and said: "They are all serving the party-state, and Captain Lin is like this, so that Meng Mou is stingy." ”

After speaking, he turned to the adjutant and said: "Order the first battalion on the periphery to immediately rush to Zhuyuanling with Commander Lin for reinforcements, and listen to the command of Commander Lin, and my large army will arrive later." ”

The adjutant immediately went out to make arrangements, and Lin Junxiong said to Meng Lei: "Lin has thanked Commander Meng, then I will go back to Zhuyuan Ridge first, and we will wait for Commander Meng on Zhuyuan Ridge." ”

Although Meng Lei heard that Lin Junxiong was a little dissatisfied in his words, he was very proud when he thought of him begging him in a low voice, and even personally sent Lin Junxiong out of the courtyard.
