Now that it was decided to fight a night battle, Feng Yipeng ordered all companies of the regiment to prepare torches, which were the only means of lighting for the Eighth Route Army at present. Flashlights: Feng Yipeng has two or three in the regimental headquarters, but these two or three flashlights can't play any role in the whole regiment at all, and they have to rely on the most primitive torches to illuminate them.

Shen Yunjie followed Feng Yipeng's request, and the whole company just prepared two torches for each person.

The whole regiment began to search for suitable sticks in small ravines.

When the warriors found the sticks, they untied their gaiters and wrapped them around the sticks to make torches.

In fact, the work of preparing the torches is not large, and it is not yet noon, and everyone has already prepared their own torches. After being busy all of a sudden, Shen Yunjie and the others suddenly had nothing to do, so they could only sit and wait for the evening to come.

I don't know if it's an illusion or if people often feel that time flies very slowly when they have nothing to do, such as Shen Yunjie, they are now nested in a small ravine, waiting for time to attack. Sensely, it seems as if two or three hours have passed, but in reality less than twenty minutes have passed.

Although Lao Cai is usually in a hurry, but Lao Cai, who has fought so many battles, also knows how many catties and taels he has, just as Shen Yunjie said, the reason why the regiment commander has to wait until the evening to attack is to reduce the combat pressure of the troops. So what Lao Cai is anxious about now is not why he doesn't fight devils, but why time flies so slowly. "What time is it now, company commander??"

At this time, Shen Yunjie was closing his eyes and recuperating, and when he heard Lao Cai ask him about the time, Shen Yunjie seemed a little impatient, "Lao Cai, can you stop for a while?" Half an hour you asked me five times!! "Shen Yunjie is impatient, but there is no way to take Lao Cai.

Shen Yunjie took a look at the watch in his hand, which was brought to Shen Yunjie by the head of the regiment Feng Yipeng after the night attack on Wuning as agreed. "At 3:17", Shen Yunjie told Lao Cai the exact time, and then thought about it for a while, in order not to let Lao Cai trouble himself again. Shen Yunjie simply took off the watch and handed it to Lao Cai.

Lao Cai looked at Shen Yunjie with a puzzled expression, "Company commander, what are you??" ”

"I'll let you take this watch with you for this time, and then you will come to me to ask the world again." Shen Yunjie was chatting with Lao Cai, but he complained in his heart: "Why am I so unlucky to meet Lao Cai??" It's good that I can't even rest well. ”

After Shen Yunjie explained, Lao Cai thought that he didn't want to, so he took the watch.

Shen Yunjie chose to sleep in order to live a little faster in the world. Shen Yunjie found a slightly warmer place to curl his body and forced himself to sleep. At this time, Shen Yunjie's plan in his heart was: "If I sleep at three o'clock and five o'clock now, I can sleep for two hours." "Shen Yunjie, this is also a very helpless choice, there is no way, there is really nothing else to do now.

Since he had slept a lot yesterday, Shen Yunjie barely slept for a little more than an hour today, and Shen Yunjie really couldn't sleep at half past four.

In the wild in winter, even during the day, people will first feel cold after waking up, Shen Yunjie got up and hurriedly moved in place to make himself less cold.

"What time is Lao Cai??" Shen Yunjie found Lao Cai after a little activity.

"Half past four."

Shen Yunjie pondered that the time was almost up. "Lao Cai told everyone to hurry up and eat now, I'm afraid I won't have time to let everyone eat at night." Eating is for the current 735 regiment, which is to eat some dry food that you carry with you. The most common dry food is cornmeal.

Shen Yunjie took out the nest head, due to weather and time problems. This nest is already cold and hard. Just holding it in his hand made him feel cold, and even so, Shen Yunjie had to make do with it. If you don't eat, you'll be hungry, and it's even more uncomfortable to be hungry.

One bite down, Shen Yunjie complained in his heart, "Oh my God, why is it so hard??" My cheeks hurt when I bit it!! "Tucao Tucao should eat and have to eat, now there is only Wowotou, and if you don't choose not to eat, then you have to go hungry.

It can be regarded as overcoming many difficulties, and Shen Yunjie ate two nests. After eating, Shen Yunjie hurriedly drank two salivas.

At half past five, Shen Yunjie's Seventh Company began to act, and Shen Yunjie took the Seventh Company to the north of the devil's stronghold, bypassing the devil's sight.

Now Shen Yunjie's location was also investigated by Feng Yipeng in advance, and there was a pure natural bunker here. Rolling hills, the highest height of the small hills is only sixty or seventy meters. Underneath the hill is the road that runs north and south.

At the same time, the company responsible for blocking the southern side also entered its own position.

Shen Yunjie took the binoculars to observe the actual situation around him, and then said to himself: "Don't say that the ambush position that the regiment commander picked for us is really good."

By observing Shen Yunjie, he also has an understanding of the surrounding terrain and landforms.

Shen Yunjie put down the binoculars in his hand and then called Li Moran over.

"Company commander, are you looking for me??"

Shen Yunjie pointed to another high ground next to him and said to Li Moran, "Li Moran, have you seen that high ground?" ”

Li Moran nodded.

"You take your platoon and set up a defensive position on that high ground." The high ground that Shen Yunjie was referring to was the commanding heights nearby, and it was very close to the current position where Shen Yunjie was, so the two positions could respond to each other and cover each other.

Li Moran took the second platoon of soldiers to another high ground to establish a defensive position according to Shen Yunjie's instructions.

Lao Cai led a platoon to establish a defensive position at Shen Yunjie's current location.

After the completion of the project, Shen Yunjie came to Li Moran's position again and walked around, the second platoon was basically full of recruits, to be honest, Shen Yunjie was indeed a little uneasy.

Shen Yunjie personally walked around the second row of positions and was very satisfied, the second row of positions was very reasonable, there was no problem with the distribution of firepower, and there was no major problem with the bunkers of each individual soldier.

Li Moran accompanied Shen Yunjie around and asked very modestly, "Company commander?" Is there anything I need to improve here? ”

Shen Yunjie didn't speak, but waved his hand at Li Moran, and then left directly. Shen Yunjie personally turned around, and now he is a lot more sure, so he returned to Lao Cai's row.

The reason why Shen Yunjie chose to stay in the position on Lao Cai's side is mainly for two reasons, one is that the field of vision here is wide, and Lao Cai and Li Moran can see it clearly, and the other is that the devil who ambushed the devil from the north is the best shooting position, although Li Moran is higher there, the shooting world is not as good as Lao Cai's here. Lao Cai is facing the road below, while Li Moran is facing the road sideways.

Everything is ready, just wait for the battle on the regiment commander's side, and then the devils will come to reinforce it.

These warriors now have two torches on their left hand and two hands on their right**, ready to enter the battle.

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Feng Yipeng took the 735th Regiment to slowly enter the devil's stronghold, but now there is a slight difference with the situation of daytime reconnaissance, and the devils on the highway and the two defensive positions during the day all withdrew to the stronghold at night.

Feng Yipeng: They have already touched the limit position, and if they go any further, they will enter the range of the devil's searchlight, and it is easy to expose their whereabouts.

It was already very dark at seven o'clock in winter, and there were two teams of devil soldiers patrolling back and forth in the open space of the stronghold. The devils on the turret used searchlights to shine around the stronghold, especially near the drawbridge and on the road in front of the drawbridge.

Feng Yipeng took the binoculars and observed the current situation of the devil's stronghold, which had four fixed street lights in the open space in addition to searchlights. The situation in the open space of the base can be said to be clear.

It seems that the torches prepared in advance by Feng Yipeng are not needed. However, Feng Yipeng thought about it later, and the preparations had already been prepared, so he had to use them anyway.

After the companies successfully entered the pre-determined attack positions. Feng Yipeng ordered the 735th Regiment to launch an attack on the devil's stronghold.

According to the pre-design, the battalion, company, and platoon attacking the stronghold from the front will each have a hand**. At this time, the purpose of throwing hands at the devil's stronghold is not to kill and injure as many Japanese devils as possible, but to blow up the devils with full firepower at the beginning and maximize the movement here. In this battle, Feng Yipeng was really willing to save the money he had worked so hard to save.

A hand** drew an arc in the air, and then the hand** exploded in the devil's clearing, because this time the number and posture were not required to be accurate, some hands** were thrown directly into the devil's blockade ditch, many hands** exploded in the blockade ditch, and there was a feeling of thunder and rain on this surface.

Immediately after that, a second row of hands ** was thrown at the devil's stronghold, and the difference between the front and back was only five seconds, and the devil's stronghold was another round of explosions.

The devil also reacted very quickly, and the searchlights of the north and south turrets shone near the suspension bridge. The other devils in the open space immediately aimed their guns near the drawbridge, and the devils in charge of patrolling also looked for cover on the spot.

All the machine guns of the first battalion opened fire together to shoot at the devils, and the Eighth Route Army in other directions also began to attack the devils' strongholds after receiving the attack signal.

The devil's stronghold became full of gunsmoke in an instant, and the guns and cannons continued to be heard.

Lao Cai was half-lying on the ground with his back against the bunker at this time, looking back at the direction of the devil's stronghold, showing a look of envy.

Shen Yunjie was also half-lying on the ground with his back to cover, but unlike Lao Cai's posture, Shen Yunjie was still holding his legs at this time, looking leisurely and very comfortable. Shen Yunjie also knew that the battle had just started on the regiment commander's side. Even if the devils in the stronghold immediately asked for support, the devil support would not be able to reach Shen Yunjie and them now.

Looking at the meat but unable to eat it, Lao Cai turned his head to look at Shen Yunjie and asked in a somewhat dissatisfied tone: "Company commander, why does the regiment commander want us to block the enemy?" Does the regiment commander think that our company's combat effectiveness is too low now?? That's why you sent us to this place?? ”

Shen Yunjie, who was complacent with him just now, immediately became serious: "Lao Cai, how can you think so much about our head of the group??" Is our head the kind of person who has a bowl of uneven water?? At that time, the situation was like this, everyone was reluctant to come to block the enemy, and they all wanted to attack the stronghold, and the regiment commander really had no choice, so he had to let several of our company commanders draw lots to decide. A few notes were written except for two that were written on the word "Guard", and I was so unlucky that I drew the word "Guard" so that we could stop the enemy. I'm telling you, Lao Cai complains and complains, you must not think about some of the people who have or not, is our head the kind of person you think?? ”

"Company commander, I was wrong, I was also in a hurry to say that I was bald." Lao Cai immediately realized his mistake and admitted his mistake to Shen Yunjie as soon as possible.

As for why Shen Yunjie lied and deceived Lao Cai, he didn't tell the truth. The reason is very simple, Shen Yunjie believes that there must be a reason for the head of the regiment to arrange it like this, but it is definitely not what Lao Cai said. The regimental commander would never feel that his soldiers were inadequate. And Shen Yunjie said this, he also wanted to completely block Lao Cai's mouth, and the province himself told the truth, Lao Cai nagged endlessly when the time came.

Shen Yunjie still wants to clear his ears for a while.
