A Dream of Jinling Chapter 323 Solving the Cow (Thirty-six)

Next chapter

"Shhh Captain Shi Qian's fingers quickly withdrew from the rifle's breech, and he couldn't help but make a burning sound. When Captain Shi Qian arrived at the harbor with his troops, there was no decent resistance on the shore, and the Americans jumped into the water and tried to escape. Captain Shi Qian commanded his company to stand in a row on the shore of the lake and shoot into the water for about half an hour. How many bullets were fired, Captain Shi Qian was not at all clear. Anyway, the trigger of his rifle began to burn to the touch, and after accidentally touching the barrel, Captain Shi Qian felt that the barrel was as hot as a soldering iron.

"Almost, call it over!" Captain Shi Qian shouted at the troops.

After this half-hour of shooting, the troops also looked quite tired. In the beginning, the troops would scream when they hit an enemy in the water to express their feelings. In the last ten minutes, no one said anything, and everyone was shooting vigorously. As the team was closed, Captain Shi Qian heard a soldier whisper: "We should set up machine guns to strafe these enemies at the beginning." ”

Hearing this, the comrades nodded one after another, including Captain Shi Qian. But a heavy machine gun was too heavy, and it was too difficult to make it possible for the infantry to move flexibly. In fact, half an hour after the start of the battle, the heavy machine guns were dragged to the front line of the lake shore and placed. But the enemy was almost all killed by the troops on the shore of the lake, and it was too wasteful to use machine gun fire on those remnants of the enemy.

Just when Captain Shi Qian was about to lead the troops and the follow-up troops to hand over the defense, he saw a small force of more than a dozen people rushing from the opposite side. The leader had a large piece of gauze soaked in blood on his face, and that alone was particularly eye-catching. When the small unit approached, Captain Shi Qian recognized the leader as his acquaintance, Captain Wei Jianjun.

In addition to the wounds covered by gauze, seven or eight other "small wounds" on Wei Jianjun's face made Shi Qian feel pain for Wei Jianjun. Wei Jianjun, who rushed to the shore of the lake, first rushed into the Yankees' artillery position, and Shi Qian followed, "Jianjun, the Yankees destroyed all the artillery when they left!" He said to Wei Jianjun.

Wei Jianjun had a bitter and hateful expression on his face, and the artillery on those artillery positions had been destroyed, and these artillery pieces had made Wei Jianjun and his troops suffer enough. Since there was no way to vent the fire by destroying the artillery, Wei Jianjun took his subordinates to the lake again. Some Yankees are still desperately trying to escape away from the shore of the lake and back to the United States. Without saying a word, Wei Jianjun picked up his rifle and began to shoot at the few guys who had not yet been killed. Shi Qian didn't know what happened to Wei Jianjun, looking at Wei Jianjun's bitter and hateful expression, Shi Qian didn't dare to speak, so he could only watch from the side.

I have to say that Wei Jianjun's military level is very good, and at a distance of more than 50 meters, he killed at least two people with ten shots. This can be seen from the violent movements of those people who were hit by bullets. Shi Qian was very surprised, those two guys were really killed in his opinion, not pretending to be dead. Wei Jianjun easily saw through it.

Shi Qian didn't know why Wei Jianjun was like this, but Qi Rui, the acting chief of staff in the military department, was very clear. The battle was a great victory, as the motorized infantry demonstrated far superior mobility to the traditional infantry, and the troops were completely surrounded and resolutely attacked. If it weren't for things on the shores of the lake, it would have been a perfect win without doubt.

If the fighting elsewhere had not been particularly smooth, the losses might not have been as conspicuous as they are now. The positions of at least four battalions were heavily shelled by American artillery. And those infantry battalions in the woodland lost more than 30 people. The three battalions on the shore of the lake lost hundreds of men, almost as many as the four battalions combined.

And what shocked Qi Rui was that his good friends Hu Xingzhi and Li Shaokang were injured. The military hospital is performing emergency surgery on the two people, and Hu Xingzhi is slightly better, although it is uncertain whether one arm can be saved, and his life is still relatively guaranteed. And Li Shaokang was seriously injured, and his life was a big problem.

When he chose to serve in the Americas from the South China Sea a few years ago, Li Shaokang and others were Qi Rui's students and comrades-in-arms. In the war, Qi Rui has also seen too many enemy deaths and casualties of our army. When Qi Rui felt that he was used to war, he still found that he just didn't meet the people he really cared about.

Like Qi Rui, Hu Xingzhi and Li Shaokang were also from the early leadership families of the Guangfu Army. Although these people can be said to be in Nanjing when they are in Nanjing, they are not conspicuous at all. But Qi Rui discovered one thing at this time, compared with those soldiers from ordinary backgrounds, the number of blood relatives of Hu Xingzhi and Li Shaokang, who are directly senior soldiers, is actually not large.

Ma Xiaoming, Qian Duo and others, who are now rising in the motorized infantry army, cannot be said to have no background, but this background is still far from blood relatives. Although the number of comrades from ordinary backgrounds in the loss of personnel in the army is larger, in terms of proportion, the proportion of the loss of the direct blood relatives of these high-ranking soldiers is unexpectedly large.

A thought suddenly popped up in Qi Rui's heart, which made Qi Rui feel a little "excessive". Will the blood relatives of the founding fathers end up losing ground in the army because they are too few in number?

In a sense, this kind of thought is a little disrespectful to Hu Xingzhi and Li Shaokang, and neither of them can be called unqualified until now. If the two of them can accumulate credit step by step, judging by their backgrounds, it is only a matter of time before they gain a higher status. However, when I was in a military school, as long as the teachers talked about the problems related to the battle, they would not forget to tell the cadets that they would inevitably face injuries and deaths in the war. As long as these two men are active on the battlefield as soldiers, their safety cannot be guaranteed.

Will the bloodlines of the founders of the Restoration Army eventually disappear from the army? Thinking of this, Qi Rui felt a little melancholy. But will the influence of the founders of the Liberation Army also disappear from the troops? Thinking of this question, Qi Rui suddenly felt a trace of indescribable ambition in his heart.

From any point of view, there must be people with strong influence in the Liberation Army, that is, the leaders of this army. If the influence of the old guys will eventually disappear, young people like Qi Rui will have a chance.

Thinking of this, Qi Rui felt that the beating speed of his heart couldn't help but speed up. Before these thoughts popped up, Qi Rui never imagined that he would actually consider the changes brought about by the war in this way. When he was younger, Qi Rui was very opposed to this kind of tone that would succeed and dry bones.

But this thing can't be opened, and once it's opened, the follow-up things will keep jumping out one after another. Qi Rui even felt that he had a split personality, and a ruthless Qi Rui was analyzing the current situation. How to use the opportunity in your hands to strengthen your power, and how to use the power in your hands to continue to climb up. Qi Rui found that he was actually very interested in this.
