Chapter 865: Fierce and Unlucky

Company Commander Yuan Mingchun held a rifle with a bayonet and no bullets, stood majestically at the front of the position in the face of the smoke and flames, and suddenly rushed into the enemy group in the face of the little devils who rushed up, and led the remaining more than 50 brothers of the assault company who had run out of ammunition and food to start a fierce white-knuckle battle with the enemy.

A brutal hand-to-hand battle began, and these assault company soldiers, who had fought fiercely with the enemy for a day, fought bravely against the enemy, killing the land with their own blood and lives to the land where their last life was left, and they were greeted by the grave without a tombstone after the heroism, and then drowned in the dust of the gunpowder fire.

At the last moment when they ran out of ammunition and food, all the soldiers of the assault company did not choose to retreat, but bravely entered the enemy group and started the final battle with the enemy.

Yuan Mingchun, the company commander, was seriously injured, although he still had the heroic spirit of never falling down if he didn't defeat the little devil, but he was not an iron body after all.

In the fight with the enemy two consecutive stabs, in the last moment of life, he resolutely pulled the only grenade on his body, with the violent explosion, Yuan Company Commander and the enemy died together, realizing the oath made before the expedition:

'I am born for China, and I die for China. We firmly believe that the War of Resistance will be won, and we will fight to the end. I will not kill the enemy, but the enemy will kill me. If you want to save yourself, you must first kill the enemy. ’

Just when Yuan Mingchun's company commander pulled the grenade and died with the enemy, a cavalry team rushed up from behind to rush into the enemy group.

The soldiers of the assault company, who were engaged in a white-knuckle battle with the enemy, noticed that the cavalry team that took the lead in killing the enemy group appeared a familiar face, and not only did their morale increase sharply and shouted: "Brothers, our Commander Lei is leading the Cheetah Commando to reinforce us, kill the devils——。 ”

When the soldiers heard that Lei Yunfeng led the Cheetah Commando Team to kill the enemy group to reinforce them, they quickly found Lei Yunfeng's figure one by one and shouted: "Commander Lei, we can kill devils with you again, I didn't expect to see you again before I died." ”

"Brothers, the cavalry will cover your withdrawal from the battle, immediately return to the position to repair the fortifications, and cover the retreat of the cavalry with the heaviest firepower."

When the deputy company commander of the assault team heard Lei Yunfeng's order, he stabbed out with a miserable laugh, and as a result, a little devil shouted to Lei Yunfeng: "Commander Lei, the assault company has run out of ammunition and food, and it is better to wait for death when you return to the position, it is better to ......." ”

"You're the deputy commander of the assault company, aren't you? Where is your company commander Yuan Mingchun now? Immediately call him to carry out my orders. ”

"Tuanza, Company Commander Yuan pulled the grenade at the last moment of his life and died with the enemy, now I lead the assault company to continue to stick to the front of the Beizhai position, please give the order from Tuanzao, and I will resolutely carry it out."

"Very well, I have brought ten boxes of ammunition to your assault company, and you will immediately lead the rest of your brothers back to their positions, and hold back the attacking enemy with the most ferocious firepower, and cover the retreat of the cavalry."

The deputy company commander of the assault team did not expect that the thundercloud summit would bring them ten boxes of bullets, and he personally entered the enemy group to carry out reinforcements, not only ordered loudly: "All the brothers of the assault company will immediately withdraw to the position on the orders of the commander of the thunder regiment." ”

When the soldiers heard that Lei Yunfeng had brought them ten boxes of life-saving bullets, they ordered them to withdraw to their positions and use the most intense fire to eliminate the enemy who broke through the position, cover the retreat of the cavalry, and immediately withdraw and quickly return to the position, replenish the bullets and deploy the maximum firepower.

The devil who was suddenly brutally slashed by the cavalry rushed into the team, only to see the sword light and sword shadow flickering in front of him, and his soul was cut down with a knife before he had time to fly out of his skull, and the corpse was separated into half of the people.

The fighters of the assault company who withdrew from their positions, quickly replenished their bullets, maximized their firepower, and shot the little devils who were swarming behind.

The Japanese soldiers, who had lost their support and were engaged in a white-knuckle battle with the cavalry, were soon slashed to death by the Cheetah Commando fighters, wounded, and fled.

This fierce battle for positions lasted until dusk, the Japanese commander of the 33rd Wing, Yuhe Chai Dazuo, saw that the Beizhai position that could not be attacked for a long time was always in the hands of the 17th Division, in order to reduce the casualties of night operations, ordered to stop the attack, retreat 1,000 meters back and set up camp, and wait until the next day to launch an attack.

After a day of life-and-death battles, the soldiers of the various units who held the Beizhai position did not eat for a day.

At this time, the gunfire on the battlefield slowly fell, and the tired and thirsty soldier could no longer hold on and fell to the ground, and it seemed that he had no strength to stand up.

The front of the position was full of bones, and the remains of more than 200 devils killed by the Japanese Yuhe Chai Wing were dragged back by the living little devils, and in the Japanese camp 1,000 meters away from the Beizhai position, they set up firewood to refine the dead corpses and put them into the white bags they carried.

The units of the 17th Division, which had fought bloodily with the enemy for a day in the Beizhai position, sacrificed more than 150 soldiers, including Company Commander Yuan Mingchun.

The Japanese army did not break through the 17th Division's fortified positions at Shaoyuan and Beizhai, and at the extremely heavy cost of more than half of the casualties, the 14th Army of the National Revolutionary Army won precious time to deploy positions at the Xiyang River.

In order to eliminate the Suzuki Division that invaded the Xiyang River, the supreme commander of the Zhongtiao Mountain Theater led many generals of the Commander's Department to Xinzhuang in the ancient city of Yuanqu, and commanded more than 50,000 troops from the 10th and 85th Divisions of the 14th Army and the 17th and 81st Divisions of the Western Route Army.

Its main strategic purpose was to lure the enemy Suzuki Division, which was advancing westward, into an ambush circle in an attempt to break through the defense line of our army at the Xiyang River, and then cooperate with the Takeda Bing Ichijie Brigade of the 108th Division to destroy the Yongji defense line of the Western Route Army.

If the Japanese army occupies Yongji and Fenglingdu, two important strategic positions, and uses them as a rear to force the Yellow River, raid the Tongguan Pass, and directly approach Xi'an, and occupy Xi'an to obtain military supplies, it will use Xi'an as a logistics support base to attack the capital Chongqing and the southwest.

In order to destroy this criminal plan of the Japanese army, the supreme commander of the Nakajo Mountain Theater personally deployed and commanded the operational deployment of the Suzuki Division in the Xiyang River ambush.

More than 20,000 people of the Li Division of the 14th Army fought on different fronts in the 17th and 81st Divisions at the cost of blood and lives, blocking the rapid advance of the Japanese Suzuki Division to the Xiyang River, and at the cost of blood, the 14th Army won time for the deployment of the Xiyang River Campaign.

The officers and men of the 17th and 81st Divisions, who had been fighting bloodily with the Japanese Suzuki Division for three days, endured the pain of their wounds and dragged their tired and bloody bodies to make way for the Japanese troops.

The officers and men of the two divisions who participated in the battle were very dissatisfied and scolded the commander for being afraid of the enemy, and the Suzuki division, which had finally been blocked with his life and blood, could not break through the position and advance to the Xiyang River.

Division Commander Zhao and Division Commander He could only send Lei Yunfeng, the supervisory captain, to go deep into the brigades and regiments to do guidance work in order not to leak military secrets to the troops.

Lei Yunfeng really became the fire captain of the Western Route Army, and he was sent wherever there was danger, which was literally a good use for him, the supervisor who was ordered to parachute into the Western Route Army.

However, the mission carried out this time was extraordinary, and all units of the Western Route Army originally had a very repulsive and hateful attitude towards the special agents of the military command, and if he appeared in these unfamiliar troops to guide them, I am afraid that he would be more than lucky.
