Chapter 62: Supporting the Third Regiment
"Li Huan, this cannonball is too heavy, can I put it on the carriage?"
On the main road, dozens of Eighth Route military carriages were pulling some things and were heading south, and a teenager with a box of artillery shells on his shoulder asked another companion aggrievedly.
"Changfeng, do you know why I didn't ask the head of the regiment for someone else to ask you to come?"
Li Huan was as sincere and seductive as a big fool, and Changfeng shook his head honestly.
Li Huan rolled his eyes in his heart, of course he is taking revenge on you kid, now everyone thinks that Changfeng is a good boy and he is a bad boy, and the head of the regiment also asked him to write an examination, but he must not let Changfeng know that he knows bitterness!
"I don't know, these shells are very important to the third regiment, but I don't worry about others, I think the most careful and trustworthy person in the whole regiment is you, so I handed over this arduous and glorious task to you!"
"Oh, is that so?" A trace of excitement flashed in Changfeng's eyes, he didn't expect that he was so trusted by Li Huan.
Li Huan nodded heavily, and replied as if he had something to do: "Of course!" ”
"Say what? Changfeng, are you tired of carrying cannonballs? I'll help you carry it! ”
Xu Dazhuang also walked up to Changfeng at this time and asked, but Changfeng shook his head firmly and said:
"No need Platoon Commander Xu, this is the task assigned to me by the organization, and I can't live up to the trust of the organization!"
After saying that, Changfeng carried the cannonball, and continued to walk forward with a firm look, leaving Xu Dazhuang, who was stunned in place, and asked Li Huan next to him:
"What's wrong with Changfeng? Why not put the shells on the wagon? How tiring it is to carry! ”
"Who knows? I guess I want to exercise my body! ”
Li Huan spread his hands helplessly, of course he wouldn't tell Uncle Da Zhuang that he was going to take revenge on Changfeng.
"It's okay, exercising physical strength is also a compulsory course for soldiers!" Xu Dazhuang nodded as if he had something to do, he didn't suspect Li Huan's bad intentions at all, in his eyes Li Huan is also a good boy, although he is a little noisy, but his heart is not bad!
A group of people walked dozens of miles to the station of the Third Regiment, and the commander of the Third Regiment welcomed the arrival of Li Huan and others.
"Platoon Commander Xu, your political commissar has told me about the specific situation, thank you for your regiment's support this time!"
"The three regiment commanders are polite, they are all devils, we are a family!"
"Yes, we're family!" The third head of the regiment patted Xu Dazhuang's shoulder very happily, and then asked Li Huan, who was holding a grass root in his mouth:
"This is ......"
"Oh, this is Li Huan, a soldier of our platoon, and this time he is in charge of the artillery of our regiment!"
Xu Dazhuang was also very strange about Li Huan's ability to fight guns, but it was always a good thing to fight devils, so he didn't ask much.
The third head of the regiment left, came up to look here and asked:
"Comrade Li Huan, do you know how to shoot?"
When asked, did he mean yes or no? So he replied solemnly:
"Please call me the Cannon King!"
"Hahahaha, little comrade, you are very interesting!"
The third head of the regiment was a hearty person, patted Li Huan's shoulder and laughed loudly, and then did not forget to ask Xu Dazhuang:
"Who is the gunner in charge of artillery in your regiment? I want to talk to him now! ”
"Uh...... It's not just a little down! ”
Before Xu Dazhuang could answer, Li Huan stood up, patted his chest and replied.
At this time, Head Xie also looked at the half-grown child in front of him in surprise, who was about the same height as himself, but slightly thin.
"You?"
"Yes, that's me!"
"And me!" Just when Li Huan just started to pretend to be forced, suddenly a person came over with a box of cannonballs and shouted excitedly, even if his face was red from tiredness, he refused to put down the box of cannonballs he was carrying on his shoulders.
"This ......"
The head of the third regiment looked at Xu Dazhuang, and then Xu Dazhuang explained the matter, and in the end, the people of the three regiments all looked at Li Huan with a suspicious look.
This kid can also shoot?
He can't shoot an earthen cannon, right?
Could it be field artillery?
Anyway, a group of people don't believe that Li Huan can shoot cannons, but a group of people won't do that kind of thing to pit people, after all, this matter doesn't have much to do with them, if you really send a person who can't shoot cannons over, it won't be to slap yourself in the face!
Although the people of the three regiments are a little skeptical, they also have more than 1,000 infantry in their hands, and they will not be timid about the 300 devils.
Soon the troops entered a state of combat, and at this time Li Huan also learned the news that the Jin Sui army in Hongkou Town had actually retreated.
Fleeing without a fight, Li Huan opened his mouth wide.
How timid does this have to be?
In fact, the previous Battle of Taiyuan scared the Jin Sui army at one time, or the Jin army, because the Sui army was still okay, and Hongkou Town happened to be stationed in the Jin army.
"These soft-footed shrimps, they ran away before the devils came, it's really a shame for the Chinese!"
Since the Jin Sui army fled without a fight, Hongkou Town naturally fell into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, and then it was good to hold Hongkou Town.
However, it was obviously a mistake to hold the town, because there was nothing to defend at all, so the 3rd Regiment made a fortification not far from the town, hoping to stop the Japanese here.
The little devil is definitely not talking about Hongkou Town, but really sending troops over, Li Huan took Changfeng and others to shrink on a hillside, this anticline is one of the several places he found that can be used as an artillery position.
"Just now, the forward sentry has reported that the devils are now less than ten miles away from us, and there are more than two squadrons of more than four hundred devils in the troop group, six heavy machine guns, but there is no artillery!"
Xu Dazhuang also sighed at this time, four hundred devils are not a joke, defeating a regiment of the Chinese army is just like a joke.
"Come on, come on, today is just the right time to let these devils taste great!"
Li Huan was fiddling with his crossbow at this time, this thing is really good, he has already tried it, the effective range can actually reach fifty meters, and the sound is very small.
At the same time, he also checked the status of his current mission:
Main Quest: Shelling the Japanese Headquarters! (Ongoing)
Reward: Tier 1! Hand-to-hand combat course instruction!
That's right, Li Huan received the task again, and he received it when Liu Fang was discussing with many people.
In less than 20 minutes, a large number of Japanese troops rushed in formation, and they set up camp in front of the defense, and there was a possibility of attacking at any time.
And at this time, Li Huan also saw from the quadruple mirror that the devil's strength was indeed quite a lot, and it was ...... He seems to have found the command of the devils!
"Hehe, I've found you!"
The antenna is so tall, I'm afraid that others won't see it, right?
Li Huan despised the devil in his heart, and then kicked on the skin of Changfeng who was lying on the ground and shouted:
"Let's go!"
The silly boy finally put down the shell, but now he was tired, but ...... He still seems to want to carry the cannonball.
Damn, it's addictive, isn't it?
