Chapter 81: The Long Night
The "bridge" of three bed boards is built on the blockade ditch, but this "bridge" looks very unstable just by looking at it. The little devils can manage so much now, and one of the little devils in charge of the attack was the first to get up and want to borrow the bed board to rush through the blockade ditch.
The Eighth Route Army is also quick-eyed, and when the devil just ran out of three or two steps and could rush over, he was shot several times by the Eighth Route Army Company. Perhaps this was the first one to charge that was too conspicuous, and several soldiers on the side of the Eighth Route Army noticed this little devil at the same time.
Bullets shot out of the guns of these Eighth Route Army soldiers one after another, and all of them hit the little devil who was the first to charge.
The devil was shot several times and was directly killed, but the devil's body just fell impartially on the "bridge".
As soon as the first devil fell, the second and third immediately got up and rushed over.
The Eighth Route Army just now was reloading after a shot, and they didn't have time to continue to keep an eye on the two behind. These two devils are fast. The rest of the Eighth Route Army moved half a beat slower, so they didn't have time to stop it in a hurry.
It was too late for the Eighth Route Army to aim and shoot the bullets, and the two devils had already crossed the blockade ditch. Maybe the Eighth Route Army was in a hurry, or maybe these two devils were lucky, and these few shots didn't hit these two devils just now.
After the two devils rushed over, they immediately hurried to find a hidden place to hide themselves. The two of them knew very well that it was only the two of them who were coming now, and they needed to wait for more comrades to come over and launch a counterattack together.
The Eighth Route Army instantly lost the vision of these two devils and could not be locked and eliminated. The two devils managed to save themselves, and now all the two of them need to do is wait for the other devils in place.
The devils in the stronghold continued to organize their forces to try to cross the blockade ditch.
The commander of the first battalion knows very well that the most important thing now is to destroy the "bridge" of devils as soon as possible, and if this continues, there will be more and more devils who cross the blockade ditch. The commander of the first battalion quickly moved near the "bridge".
The commander of the first battalion came to a distance of more than 100 meters very close to the "bridge". The commander of a battalion pulled a stray bullet and threw it at the bed.
The commander of the first battalion immediately lay down at the moment when he threw out the stray bullet to prevent the devil from locking on himself and shooting.
In fact, the location where the first battalion commander is now has been discovered by the two devils just now, and these two devils also have a suitable angle to shoot the first battalion commander. It's just that the devil doesn't want to reveal his location now, so he didn't shoot. If the devil knew the official position of the first battalion commander, it is estimated that he would not hesitate to shoot and kill the first battalion commander.
It's a pity that the first battalion commander lacked accuracy, and the stray bullet just rubbed against the edge of the bed board, and then did not stop on the bed board, but fell under the blockade ditch and exploded. The point of explosion was somewhat far from the bed board, and the bed board was not effectively damaged. In other words, the first battalion commander's stray bullet did not have the effect he wanted.
The commander of the first battalion raised his head and quietly observed the situation near the "bridge". The commander of the first battalion found that the "bridge" was still alive. During this period, the other soldiers of the Eighth Route Army managed to stop five or six devils, but three more devils broke through the blockade ditch.
To the west of the blockade ditch is the position of the Eighth Route Army, and to the east is the stronghold of devils. At present, five devils have successfully broken through to the west.
If it drags on like this, there will be more and more devils in the west, and when they come over a certain number, they will definitely attack the position of the Eighth Route Army. If the devils really launched an attack in the west, then the Eighth Route Army would be even more unable to stop the breakthrough of the stronghold devils.
The situation is not optimistic, and the commander of the first battalion originally wanted to throw a stray bullet to see if he could blow up the bed board, but unfortunately the first battalion commander no longer had a stray bullet on his body. The commander of the first battalion was at a loss for a moment.
Just as the commander of the first battalion was staring at the vicinity of the "bridge" to figure out a way. The "bridge" cracked from the joint with a click.
The three bed boards all fell into the blockade ditch, of course, it was not the luck of the Eighth Route Army. Originally, the three bed boards were simply spliced together with wooden planks and iron nails. In addition, it is normal for so many devils to run on the bed board and disconnect.
Seeing this scene, the battalion commander instantly breathed a sigh of relief, the devils in the stronghold had no auxiliary tools, and it would be difficult to cross the blockade ditch.
The first battalion commander quietly began to climb back, and the position of the first battalion commander was too dangerous now. The "bridge" has been destroyed, and there is no need for him to stay in such a dangerous position anymore. Just now, those two devils were hesitant whether to shoot and kill the battalion commander.
As the saying goes, if you hesitate, you will miss the opportunity, and between the two devils, the commander of the battalion has successfully climbed back to a safer area.
The two devils still didn't shoot in the end.
After returning, the commander of the first battalion immediately arranged two squads of soldiers to search for the devils who rushed over just now, and the commander of the first battalion only knew that there were devils rushing over but did not know the specific number. If these devils don't get rid of a battalion commander, they won't be steady.
The devil's stronghold was very lively, and Shen Yunjie's side still didn't wait for the devil.
It's past two o'clock in the middle of the night, and Shen Yunjie's side has not yet opened, and to be honest, the devil has not sent reinforcements from this direction at all.
These veterans on the Seventh Company position, including Lao Cai and Shen Yunjie, knew very well in their hearts that they had been ambushed here for so long, and they had not waited for the devil reinforcements to appear, and there was a high probability that the devil reinforcements did not take this road at all.
It's just that in order to ensure the safety of their comrades on the frontal battlefield, even if they already know that the devil will not appear in this direction, Shen Yunjie still has to stick to their positions.
Shen Yunjie found Lu Kuan on the position: "Instructor, you find a place to rest first."
Lu Kuan looked at Shen Yunjie very curiously, "Why??" Aren't you still going to stop the devil?? ”
"We have been in ambush for so long, and the devil hasn't appeared yet, most likely the devil's support has come from the south. There will be no devils in the north for a while. ”
Lu Kuan nodded as if he didn't understand, "Okay, I'll come to you later." ”
Feng Yipeng looked at the time, and there were still no gunshots coming from the northern position. Feng Yipeng probably knew what was going on. The third battalion has also been on standby.
Feng Yipeng thought about it again and again and decided to let the 8th Company of the 3rd Battalion go to support the 2nd Battalion in the southern position. Feng Yipeng didn't dare to transfer all the three battalions to support the south at this time, Feng Yipeng was indeed a little conservative. He was worried that if the devil came from the north, he would at least have a ninth company to mobilize. Anything is not afraid of 10,000, just in case.
And the devils in the stronghold have been tossing around blindly for so long and have not broken through the blockade ditch, so they have gradually become demoralized from the high morale at the beginning, and changed from offensive to defensive.
The devil Shaozuo also settled down, and all the remaining troops were huddled in the turret, and honestly waited for reinforcements to come. It can also be said that the devil Shaozuo finally recognized the current situation, and if he took the initiative to attack again, it is estimated that he will not be able to wait for reinforcements, and he will be wiped out by the Eighth Route Army first.
At about three o'clock in the morning and almost four o'clock in the morning, Shen Yunjie was really sleepy. This point in time happens to be the time when people are most likely to get sleepy, and Shen Yunjie has nothing else to do except wait.
In order to continue to stay awake, Shen Yunjie raised his right hand and slapped himself hard, snapping, snapping two crisp sounds, and had to admire Shen Yunjie's ability to put such a heavy hand on himself.
After two slaps, Shen Yunjie was much more sober, and Shen Yunjie got up and moved his muscles.
Then Shen Yunjie looked in the direction of the devil's stronghold, where gunfire was still continuing. There was a hint of envy in Shen Yunjie's eyes. The other companies and the devils are fighting in full swing, and they still haven't fired a single shot so far. Shen Yunjie was a little sour.
I really don't dare to look at it more, and if I look at it again, Shen Yunjie can flow out. Shen Yunjie turned his head and used a telescope to observe the situation on the road below.
How Shen Yunjie hoped that there would be little devils on the highway at this time, and he would be able to open a few activities and move his muscles. The imagination is very beautiful, the reality is cruel, and there is still no one on the road.
Shen Yunjie sighed helplessly. Shen Yunjie, who really had nothing to do, wandered to the position of Li Moran's second platoon.
The first thing Li Moran did when he saw Shen Yunjie was to ask Shen Yunjie, "Company commander, do you say that this devil is not supporting from this direction??" Li Moran also looked sleepy at this time.
"It seems that eight or nine is not far from ten," Shen Yunjie replied weakly.
Feng Yipeng looked at the time first, and then ordered the first battalion to stop fighting.
Immediately afterwards, Feng Yipeng made some adjustments, and he transferred the Ninth Company, which had been on standby, to replace the first battalion that had been fighting all night.
However, Feng Yipeng transferred the Ninth Company not to let the Ninth Company continue to attack, but was only responsible for guarding and preventing the devils from sneaking up. Its purpose is that if the enemy does not move, I will never move first, and I will follow the enemy when he moves.
Feng Yipeng was also distressed, whether the first battalion was really fighting or feints, the first battalion was indeed tossed all night. Feng Yipeng replaced them because he wanted them to have a good rest.
The commander of the first battalion originally wanted to insist on fighting again, but when he saw that the soldiers of his battalion were tired, he had no choice but to obey Feng Yipeng's order to withdraw and let everyone have a good rest.
Feng Yipeng called the commander of the first battalion to him and instructed: "The devil's stronghold, this place will be handed over to you for the time being, and if anything happens, you can be responsible for handling it." I'll go to the southern position to see how the situation is going over there," Feng Yipeng originally wanted to go to the southern blocking position to learn about the battle situation.
The first battalion commander nodded at Feng Yipeng: "The regiment commander, leave it to me here, you can rest assured." ”
Feng Yipeng led a few soldiers to the southern blocking position.
After the fighting stopped on the Eighth Road, the devils also stopped.
Devil Shaozo came to the top of the turret and observed the situation of the Eighth Route Army with a telescope, and Devil Shaozo found that although the Eighth Route Army stopped fighting, it did not relax its vigilance.
In this case, the devil Shaozuo did not arrange any sneak attack or anything, the decision he made was similar to Feng Yipeng, he ordered that except for some guards, the others rested. To put it bluntly, devils are also people, and they have been tossing around all night.
Both sides are resting while not giving the other a chance to sneak attack. It's just that after the devil Shaozuo arranged it, he also went to rest with him.
After the battle in the devil's stronghold stopped, Shen Yunjie also decided to let everyone rest in batches. Lao Cai's first row continued to stare first, and Li Moran's second row was all resting. In this way, even if the devil suddenly comes, he can react himself.
Li Moran didn't shirk much, he rested first and then replaced Lao Cai, that is, one after the other, Li Moran personally felt that there was no need to fight for this.
