Time: It's hard to tell from the night, and the darkness between heaven and earth is like eternal night.

Location: It is still at the entrance of the bamboo forest on the east side of the princess's tomb.

Battle Situation: The Japanese Kosaki Brigade launched several frantic charges, and the New Third Regiment held its position under the leadership of the regiment commander Han Feng.

…… The devil's fifth attack began, and they seemed to continue to bombard and cover with artillery fire, and the infantry attacked from all sides of the bamboo forest.

The collapsed house was now only half a man high, and the soldiers of the New Third Regiment had built a simple fortification from the bluestone slabs of the wall as a defense.

By the time the Japanese were afraid that the shells would hit their own people and the roar gradually stopped, the Japanese attacking troops had already shortened the charging distance by two-thirds.

"Hit-"

Han Feng shook off the scum all over his body, stood up from the rubble, and roared, this roar made his voice hoarse, and the wound caused blood to overflow from his mouth, he gave orders in his hoarseness, and his ears could barely hear the surrounding movement because of the roar of the cannonballs.

As far as Han Feng's eyes could see, in the dust ruins several feet thick on the ground, figures slowly squirmed and crawled up.

Their situation is probably not much better than Han Feng, even if the regiment commander is roaring, no one can hear the order clearly, but everyone understands - the enemy has attacked again, and the regiment commander has once again given the order to defend to the death.

In the end, the soldiers of the New Third Regiment, who were crawling on the ground before the roar of the artillery fire, only got up two-thirds of the way, and they shook their heads one by one, forcing themselves back to the reality of the war, lying on the fortifications again with difficulty, and continuing to turn their guns towards the enemy.

The tragic battle of positional defense was staged again.

The battle has reached this white-hot level, and the New Third Regiment, with a total of about 600 men and horses from the Elite Company and the Guard Company, has blocked the entire Japanese Kosaki Brigade outside the position for two hours.

During this period, Kosaki ordered five attacks, each more fierce and each more crazy, but they were all beaten back by the soldiers of the New Third Regiment.

The next few positional defense battles were almost a contest between the willpower of the soldiers of the New Third Regiment and the firepower of the Japanese army.

The only way for the soldiers of the New Third Regiment to hold their positions was to sacrifice and be brave in madness.

The casualties on both sides were not small, and there were less than two hundred figures left by Han Feng's side.

On the side of the Kosaki Brigade, in the continuous charging and attacking, more than 300 people were also killed and wounded.

The night is getting colder and colder!

At this moment, aside from the horror and danger of the shells, the soldiers actually have some nostalgia for the warmth after the roar of the shells.

At this moment, it seems that only by constantly charging and fighting can the blood boil all over the body to resist the cold of the night.

The fifth frenzied attack of the Japanese army's Kosaki brigade finally began after the cover of the roar of artillery fire.

Kosaki, who was commanding in the rear, had a solemn gaze, and the joy on his face had already turned into nothingness at this moment.

What a team!

Their equipment is backward and their clothes are thin, and they can actually break out such tenacious and brave combat effectiveness in such extremely cold weather.

After four attacks, Kosaki's brigade suffered nearly 400 casualties, but it still did not take the seemingly insignificant fortifications in front of them.

His opponents are like Xiao Qiang who can't be killed, every time after the roar of artillery fire, when you think they are dead, one by one they stand up in a stagger, drag over the guns, take the few remaining bullets, and continue to fight.

As his heart became more and more shocked, even Sasaki had to admit that this was really a tough team like an iron fight.

It is self-evident who the balance of victory in this war will favor if the equipment situation is equal.

But the reality is so cruel, although Kosaki admires such an enemy, he will not have any mercy towards the enemy.

The fifth attack became more and more crazy, and this time Kosaki put a lot of money into two squadrons and attacked at the same time.

At this time, under the dim sky, behind the ruined position, the soldiers of the New Third Regiment seemed to have all been killed, and there was no movement.

It wasn't until Kosaki's two squadrons had charged to a distance of less than 30 paces from the fortifications of the New Third Regiment that there seemed to be no movement except for the first roar at the rear of the fortifications and the sound of gunfire.

Twenty steps!

Fifteen steps!

Ten steps!

Five steps!

The two sides are close at hand, and if the breathing sound is loud enough, it can even ring clearly in each other's ears in this dead night.

The tinnitus slowly subsided as the artillery fire stopped, and the soldiers of the New Third Regiment arranged according to Han Feng's order, and quietly catted behind the fortifications.

Three steps!

The Japanese soldiers, who were also afraid of death, had turned their charge into a slow and tentative advance.

They couldn't figure out what was going on behind the fortifications, could it be that the Eighth Route Army had all been killed by shells?

One-step!

The front row of devils stretched out their heads from the fortifications, and they could already see the situation behind the announcement.

Then they saw a row of black shadows crouching quietly behind the fortifications...... The little devils of Hula ——, didn't have time to react at all, and they were dragged by the necks of the soldiers of the new third regiment who suddenly broke out and into the fortifications.

The sudden change caught the devils charging in the rear off guard.

They didn't dare to throw grenades for a while, for fear of blowing up their own people.

The captain of the Japanese army who commanded on the spot judged that the enemy was running out of bullets and was ready to engage in a white-knuckle battle! He immediately ordered all the soldiers to speed up the attack and carry out a bayonet assault.

Rows and rows of devils jumped over the fortifications of the New Third Regiment.

"Hit!"

Han Feng suddenly burst into a loud snort.

The soldiers, who had already disposed of the devils who had poked their heads in the first row, hurriedly crawled under the fortifications.

Suddenly, the machine-gun fire tilted desperately from all four directions on the flanks of the fortifications.

The dense fire network swept all the dozens of devils who had just rushed through the fortifications.

As soon as the devils who continued to arrive in the rear saw this situation, it was immediately clear that they had fallen into the trap, and they hurriedly jumped back from the fortifications, and the dozen or so devils who moved a little slower were directly beaten into a hornet's nest.

As soon as the machine-gun fire stopped, the prostrate fighters immediately lay down on the fortifications again and raised their guns to meet the attack.

Another platoon of soldiers quickly began to collect bullets, guns, and grenades for the dead Japanese soldiers behind the fortifications, and a new wave of supplies was delivered.

Half an hour later, Kosaki, seeing that he could not do anything, hurriedly ordered a retreat, and the fifth attack of the Japanese army was declared a failure, and the troops temporarily retreated like a tide.

After the fortification, Han Feng gasped heavily, he had just killed three devils in hand-to-hand combat, and one of the devils was not slow to react, and the bayonet left a wound on his arm.

"Commander, are you alright?"

Zhang Daring, who squatted over, looked at Han Feng's stabbed arm, there was still blood on it, his face was full of guilt, although his marksmanship was good, but he had not been trained in hand-to-hand combat, if it wasn't for the regiment commander to save him just now, his arm would not have been stabbed by that devil.

Han Feng tore off one of his clothes, bandaged his arm urgently, and said with a smile: "It's a small thing, it's just a little bit bitten by a little devil." ”

"Daring, this is the first attack of the devils we have repelled?"

"It's the fifth time."

"Cold?"

Zhang Daring shook his head: "I only think about how to kill devils, and I don't feel cold at all." ”

Han Feng chuckled, he looked at the bamboo forest not far away in silence, his eyes hidden in the night, all fierce and cruel.

He suddenly smiled and asked, "Daring, do you regret it?" Is it a little bit of a fault for pulling you into the line? ”

Zhang Da'er, who looked at Han Feng's arm, hurriedly shook his head: "Leader, I don't regret it at all, I'm happy to fight devils with you!" It's my sister......"

"Don't worry, when the political commissar and they evacuated, I also arranged for Erya to go in, no matter how cruel the war is, our grandfather is in front, and there is no need for women to sacrifice."

Zhang Daring was overjoyed and said excitedly: "Then I won't be afraid of anything." ”

"Not afraid of death?"

"Don't be afraid, the political commissar told me that the duty of the guards is to die in front of the regiment commander, and you hide behind me for a while, and I will protect you."

Looking at Zhang Da'er's solemn expression, Han Feng nodded with a smile, "Okay, I'll hide behind you." ”

The monk next to him couldn't stand it anymore, kicked Zhang Daring, and scolded: "You black egg, ten you are not the opponent of the third brother when you are tied together, when the devil rushed over just now, if it wasn't for the third brother's quick reaction, your kid would have died a long time ago, and he has a hand in bragging." ”

Zhang Daring smiled hesitantly and said, "I can at least help the regiment commander block the bullet!" ”

The monk and Han Feng were silent, for a long time, Han Feng touched his pocket, it was empty, he looked at the monk and Zhang Daring, "Do you two have cigarettes in your pocket?" ”

The monk hurriedly handed over a pack of cigarettes with the pattern of a beautiful woman from the island country, "Hehe, the head of the regiment, I already knew that you were here, when I was seized just now, I found it out of the pocket of the devil ensign there." ”

"You kid, you have a heart!"

With a trembling right hand, he lit a match, and when a choking but fragrant smoke rose, it seemed that the emotion in his heart was sublimated.

Han Feng raised his head towards the night sky, ignoring the surrounding cold and the crisis at the moment, and looked at it calmly, it turned out that this night sky was just like when he just woke up!
