"Who is the company commander! Who is the company commander! ”

Hearing the familiar Guangxi Mandarin, company commander Shi Qian responded, "Who is it?" I'm a company commander. ”

A company of 100 people of the motorized unit of the Liberation Army cannot be regarded as weak in firepower. Each squad had one sniper and two sharpshooters, and one company was equipped with four mortars. Mortars made of carbon steel are not light, but they are not too bad to transport if they are biased to three wheels.

Not long ago, the Yankees were caught by surprise by firepower, and some of the Yankees scattered and fled, while others retreated into warehouses to try to hold on. Company Commander Shi Qian was in a dilemma, his troops had suffered a lot of losses in the morning urban battle, and their strength was not enough to pursue the fleeing enemy in the dark night, and it was also not enough to immediately attack the enemy who was hiding in the warehouse. At this moment, the company next to it, which also joined the attack with rifles, arrived.

Hearing Shi Qian's answer, the person who came said, "I am the company commander next to me." ”

Before the words fell, the three of them arrived in front of Shi Qian. The guard next to Shi Qian shone a flashlight on the person, this was not any malice, it was just a habitual action that had been trained many times. At this photo, the guard became nervous, and several flashlights from the troops next to him gathered on the comer.

Wei Jianjun instinctively blocked the focused shooting of the flashlight with his hand, and Shi Qian saw clearly that the other party's military uniform was fit, and the two soldiers behind the company commander with the appearance of a foreign devil were indeed Chinese.

"Turn off the flashlight." After giving the order, Shi Qian greeted him and asked in a somewhat puzzled voice, "Are you the one named Wei Jianjun?" ”

Listening to Shi Qian's mouth of Guangxi Mandarin, Wei Jianjun smiled and said, "I am Wei Jianjun." The appearance scared everyone, I'm sorry. ”

The familiar accent reassures the troops, and it is not uncommon for the troops serving in North America not to have seen foreigners. There are many foreigners in North America, including those in the United Kingdom and France. There were also quite a few Indians. Shi Qian didn't want to talk nonsense, he asked directly: "I'm Company Commander Shi Qian, I want to pursue the fleeing enemy, I don't know what Company Commander Wei thinks?" ”

"I think we should deal with the enemies in the warehouse first. After taking out the enemies in the stronghold, the Yankees probably have little hope. Keeping a stronghold will only make the Yankees feel that there are still people resisting. So I'm here to tell you if you're blocking the front door or going around and blocking the back door. "Wei Jianjun is looking for Shi Qian in order to continue the fight as much as possible. The casualties of his troops were not large, but the warehouse area of the railway station was not small. And next to the railway station warehouse area is the marshalling station, and a large number of trains are parked on the tracks, which can be said to be a good bunker. It is too thin for a company to invest in such a large area.

Guangxi Mandarin did make Shi Qian feel cordial, but what the other party, a well-known 'foreign devil' officer in the army, said made Shi Qian very disagreeable. He immediately retorted: "The follow-up troops are coming soon, let's just leave some people to watch the enemy in the warehouse." The Yankees who run away are the scourge, they are in the dark, and we are in the light. If they are allowed to fight guerrilla warfare with us in the city, I don't think it will work. ”

"If they can now switch to guerrilla warfare as soon as they are attacked, then they will fight with us during the day. But I didn't see a single guerrilla Yankee during the day. I don't think the Yankees will do that. Wei Jianjun is not a weak chicken, and when he heard that the other party's point of view was contrary to his own, he immediately put forward a rebuttal.

Captain Shi Qian frowned in the night, "I fought with the Yankees all morning during the day. The Yankees shot when they saw us approaching, how could it be that no one was fighting guerrillas? ”

"The Yankees have guns at home, and if you get too close to their house, of course they will be attacked. But if we take the big road, and the Yankees don't think we're targeting their home, those guys won't shoot lightly. Chasing down those who run away will only drive them home, and then fight house to house. It's really not suitable for street fights at night, and there is no need for that. Wei Jianjun made his own judgment based on his own experience during the day.

If there is anything more unpleasant than the opposite, it is probably because of the familiar hometown accent that produces the feelings of the country's comrades-in-arms standing on the opposite side. Shi Qian was a little furious when he boarded up, and he said in a not very unhappy tone: "Then you can go to your battalion commander." I also looked for my battalion commander. ”

Originally, he wanted to cooperate with the friendly army next to him, but in the end, Wei Jianjun turned around and left very unhappily. When he left, he put the name "Shi Qian" on the list of 'unfriendly' in his heart. Looking at the figure of Wei Jianjun leaving, Shi Qian was doing the same job in his heart.

Both motorized infantry battalions have imposed a larger encirclement, and it will take some time to make contact. In front of the lieutenant colonel of the U.S. Federal Army in the warehouse, Engineer Monters was trying to lobby, "Mr. Lieutenant Colonel, let's retreat to the river now." I'm an engineer here, and this warehouse won't be able to hold it if it's attacked by enemy artillery. ”

The lieutenant colonel, of course, knew that it could not be defended, and that the main building materials in the United States were stone and wood. The wood used in the warehouse is indeed heavy, and bullets may not be able to penetrate it, but the cannonballs can turn the wooden warehouse into a burning hell.

"Do you know the way?" After all, the Federal Army was a passing outsider, and was not familiar with the roads in the city. As passers-by, they have no intention of getting to know the city in depth. If you want to retreat in the middle of the night, you must have a local guide to guide you.

"I know the way, but I don't think we can go all the way. This is my son Beniel, and let him take part of the team to the river. I took the other way and retreated to the river. We'll talk about it when we meet there. "Engineer Montes is a patriot, but not a fool. The National Guard was immediately scattered after the raid, and it was too unrealistic to expect the two or three hundred U.S. Federal Army to defend the city. At this point, it is preferable to retreat across the river and continue to resist in Minneapolis.

The lieutenant colonel immediately made a judgment, and the American federal troops in the warehouse were quickly divided into four teams, which retreated in two directions. The lieutenant colonel was the last to withdraw, and before leaving, he ordered, "Light the straw in the warehouse." ”

Despite the fact that the National Guard had taken a lot of things, there were still a lot of weapons and ammunition piled up in the warehouse. Naturally, there was no time to blow up with explosives when retreating. Lighting a straw can effectively prolong the ignition time, and if you are lucky, the fire can cause a continuous explosion of gunpowder before the squadron finds out.

As soon as the subordinates in the warehouse lit the straw, the lieutenant colonel heard some movement not far away. Although the sound was not loud, the soldier's intuition sensed danger, and it was only when the heavily armed army was quietly approaching. I can't care so much, the lieutenant colonel will run away with his subordinates. At this time, it's still your own life.

"Company commander, the enemy began to flee. It looks like the U.S. Army. By the time the troops in front of them brought the news, the U.S. Army had already run out for a while.

Wei Jianjun immediately ordered, "Chase!" ”

"Huh?" The instructor was stunned. He was well aware of the attitude of the company commander Wei Jianjun towards the pursuit.

"The locals ran home and it was over, and the U.S. Army couldn't let it go. It's easy for us to chase them. Wei Jianjun said decisively.

Although the instructor didn't want to chase, he couldn't stop the company commander's order. Just as he sighed and was about to pursue the enemy in the dark night, he heard Wei Jianjun continue: "Send a message to Company Commander Shi Qian and ask him to help occupy the warehouse. ”

A few minutes later, Company Commander Shi Qian received a message from a messenger sent by Wei Jianjun. He glared at the correspondent and asked, "Did your company commander chase him down with someone?" ”

"Yes." The correspondent replied.

"Aren't you going to hit the warehouse?" Shi Qian's instructor asked unhappily.

"The enemy was the US Federal Army, and they ran. Our company commander led the team to chase down. The company commander asks you to help occupy the warehouse. The correspondent replied.

The instructor was furious, and Wei Jianjun, who had just advocated blocking the enemy, was now actually playing a pursuit. Is that cautious thing to say farting? Without waiting for the instructor to speak, Shi Qian said, "Okay, let's go to the warehouse to clean up first." ”

The instructor was stunned, should his own company commander also have a temperament? actually gave the pursuing Wei Jianjun the aftermath of them.

Engineer Montes ran out of breath, followed by the equally panting US Federal Army. Further back was the squadron that pursued a few streets. In addition to hot pursuit, they kept shooting at the fleeing US Army. Fortunately, Engineer Mendes was a local, and he crossed several small roads and bypassed several large houses in a row, but finally did not let the squadron catch up.

When he was out of breath, a figure suddenly popped out of the darkness in front of him and shouted in a low voice, "Daddy." ”

Even though he immediately knew that it was his son Benier, Engineer Mendes was still frightened. The meeting of father and son meant that the two runaway troops also converged. The lieutenant colonel stopped and rested for a moment, and finally gritted his teeth and said: "Ambush the Chinese here, you can't let them continue to chase like this." ”

Engineer Monters had long felt that this should be done, if he could leave a small army to ambush the ** team, the large army could withdraw farther. It's just that limited to his identity, Engineer Montes didn't dare to propose such a proposal.

"You're lying in ambush here, and our troops are moving forward. You strike at the pursuing Chinese troops from the flanks and behind, and we immediately return to the head attack. The lieutenant colonel ordered.

Upon hearing this arrangement, Engineer Montes immediately felt that Mr. Lieutenant Colonel was worthy of being a professional soldier. In the idea of Engineer Montes, it was to leave a small unit to harass the squadron and contain the enemy so that they could not continue the pursuit. The large army took the opportunity to run away. But the lieutenant colonel's order is more reasonable, and after the troops meet the pursuing squadron **, they can also quickly withdraw from the battlefield after the squadron suffers casualties. The damage that the two hundred US **** team can inflict on the Chinese is far greater than the damage caused by a few or a dozen people.

The U.S. troops began to prepare according to the lieutenant colonel's arrangement, and the team led by the lieutenant colonel first released two rows of guns, and then began to retreat as if they were being caught by Chinese bullets. Engineer Monters did not retreat with the Lieutenant Colonel's team, and the Lieutenant Colonel told him to stay in the ambush team. After all, retreating forward is not really running away, and you don't need someone to lead the way.

Hiding next to a house with bated breath, Engineer Montes worked hard to recover while waiting for the squadron to enter the ambush area.

At this moment, a small crack opened in the window of the house where Montes was hiding, and someone shouted inside: "Whoever you are, get out of my yard quickly." …… You guys...... If you don't leave, I'll shoot!" ”

Houses on the streets are closed and their lights are turned off. Suddenly there was such a voice in the dark street, even if it was not too loud, it sounded like a thunderclap to the ears of Engineer Montes.
