Chapter 487 Epilogue
"Commander, we should withdraw, and continue to fight, we will be left behind by the devils." After cutting down a devil, Zhang Dabiao shouted loudly.
Li Yunlong slashed back a rushing devil, and his physical strength was too much, making the big knife in his hand seem even heavier. Li Yunlong took a hard breath and looked at the other warriors around him, he could see that the faces of the warriors were all tired, which made him know that it was indeed time to retreat.
"Comrades! Fight off these devils! Li Yunlong shouted loudly.
It is not a simple matter to retreat in the battle with these devils, at least these devils need to be repelled before Li Yunlong and the others can retreat safely. Otherwise, once these devils start the pursuit of Li Yunlong and others, then Li Yunlong and others will be extremely passive, and it will be impossible to easily complete the retreat under the entanglement of the devils.
As Li Yunlong spoke, the soldiers who were originally tired immediately used all their remaining strength to rush towards the devils without fear of death, they needed to repel these devils, and they needed to kill these devils! In white-knuckle battles, only by being more ferocious than the other party can you win the white-knuckle battle.
The soldiers of the first battalion have a lot of energy in white-edged combat, they have extremely rich experience in white-knuckle combat, and the independent regiment also attaches great importance to the assassination training of the soldiers on weekdays, which makes the devils constantly retreat under the desperate fight of the soldiers of the first battalion.
In the face of the fierce offensive battalion of soldiers, the devils had no other choice, even if they resisted desperately, they could not stop. When the casualties of the devils reached a certain level, these devil soldiers collapsed, and they no longer had any idea of fighting with Li Yunlong and others.
After the first devil chose to give up the fight and escaped, more and more devils joined the ranks of the escape, they always felt that they could easily gain the upper hand in the white-knuckle battle, but after fighting with Li Yunlong and others, these devils no longer had the slightest such idea.
Seeing these devils fleeing, Li Yunlong seized the time to kill some devils again, and then decisively chose to evacuate and continue, there are no devils in this area, then the firepower of the devil troops will definitely attack. During the retreat, Li Yunlong and the others were vigilant enough, and the speed was also the fastest, and before the devils could launch a large-scale shooting, they successfully returned to the Cross Ridge.
As soon as they returned to Cross Ridge, Li Yunlong and the others collapsed directly in the position, they were too tired. After a half-hour white-knuckle battle with the devil, there were casualties on both sides every minute, and the soldiers were able to hold on until now because they trained hard enough on weekdays.
In the entire independent regiment, only the fighters of the first battalion were able to conduct a half-hour white-knuckle battle, and the fighters of the other two battalions were also good, but compared with the first battalion, they were still a little worse.
"Lao Li, Lao Li, how are you? Are you hurt? Lao Li? Zhao Gang saw Li Yunlong slumped to the ground, and hurriedly ran over, with a bit of crying in his voice.
Originally, Li Yunlong still wanted to tease Zhao Gang, but after seeing the obvious worry on Zhao Gang's face, he no longer had the idea of teasing Zhao Gang, and he didn't want Zhao Gang to continue to worry. Li Yunlong could feel that he was very tired, but if he was injured, he was not injured.
In the fight against the devil, the soldiers of the first battalion were all around him, and if Li Yunlong was in danger, then the soldiers would soon be able to come and help Li Yunlong kill the devil. Of course, in a white-knuckle battle of more than half an hour, it would be impossible to say that Li Yunlong was not injured at all.
"Lao Zhao, don't worry, Lao Li is hard, and he can't die easily." Li Yunlong said with a smile.
Suddenly, after seeing that Li Yunlong's voice was very calm, Zhao Gang didn't have too many worries, it seemed that Li Yunlong really didn't have any big problems. It's just that in order to ensure Li Yunlong's safety, Zhao Gang still arranged for Li Yunlong to do the corresponding inspection as soon as possible, so as to avoid Li Yunlong's injuries, but he held on.
After the doctor examined Li Yunlong's body and determined that he didn't have much of a problem, just some minor injuries, Zhao Gang was really relieved. Considering that Li Yunlong and the others were quite tired, Zhao Gang simply asked Li Yunlong and the others to rest, and then joined the battle after they recovered.
Li Yunlong didn't have any opinion on this, he was very aware of his own situation, and knew that even if he stayed on the front line, he would not have any combat effectiveness, and he would be quite dangerous. In order to avoid this from happening, it is undoubtedly the best choice to go to rest.
And after Li Yunlong and the others went to rest, the devils did not launch an attack for a long time, which made Zhao Gang very surprised, and he didn't understand what was going on with these devils, but these devils didn't attack, he was naturally very happy, and he was willing to let the soldiers have a certain amount of time to rest. For most of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment, rest is a very luxury, and they have not been able to rest properly for a long time.
However, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment did not complain, they were part of the Independent Regiment, and they were supposed to participate in any combat operation of the Independent Regiment, even if it would be very hard, but it was decided that none of the fighters would give up. The warriors are very tired, but in the battle with the devils, the warriors are willing to drag their tired bodies and stick to the defensive position, they will not easily let the devil step into the defensive position.
Zhao Gang could see that many soldiers were sleeping with their guns in their arms, and in less than twenty minutes, the soldiers fell asleep one after another. On the battlefield, while the soldiers were resting, Liu Gen couldn't hear any snoring sounds, it stands to reason that the soldiers were so tired, how could they not hear any snoring sounds? But in fact, nothing was heard from the position.
A soldier noticed the confusion on Zhao Gang's face, so he explained to Zhao Gang: "Political Commissar Zhao, the comrades didn't snore because they slept relatively lightly, and the devil had any abnormal movements, so everyone was able to wake up in time and join the battle." ”
Zhao Gang patted the soldier's shoulder vigorously, his face was a little ashamed, he found that he hadn't done enough, if he could have good enough combat command ability like Li Yunlong, or if he could get some equipment and ammunition from the brigade commander and division commander to enhance the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment, then the soldiers would not have to be so tired.
Although Zhao Gang knew that his ability alone was limited, and even if he wanted to do something for the independent group, he couldn't do much, but he was still a little ashamed, he found that the more he understood Li Yunlong, and the more he turned towards Li Yunlong. Zhao Gang seemed to understand why when Li Yunlong was in the Independent Regiment, he couldn't wait to fight every day, it was because only through fighting could the Independent Regiment capture enough weapons and equipment and become stronger in combat effectiveness.
Only when the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment is strong enough can it avoid encountering today's kind of thing, avoid the soldiers from falling into a bitter battle, and avoid the soldiers from making too many unnecessary sacrifices.
"You are all good, it's not enough for me Zhao Gang." Zhao Gang said with a face full of shame.
The soldier hurriedly shook his head and said comfortingly: "Political Commissar Zhao, you have done well enough since coming to our independent regiment, you don't need to be ashamed." ”
"Since the regiment commander and you came to the Independent Regiment, the combat effectiveness of our Independent Regiment has risen in a straight line, weapons and equipment are available, and the living conditions have also improved a lot. In the eyes of those of us, the regiment commander and you have done too much for the independent regiment, and the only thing we can do is to kill a few more devils on the battlefield, so as not to waste the resources consumed by the independent regiment on us. ”
“……”
The soldier was very excited, he didn't want Zhao Gang to feel ashamed, the Independent Regiment had changed enough and become good enough, and the change of the Independent Regiment had an inseparable relationship with Li Yunlong and the two of them, and he didn't want Zhao Gang, the political commissar, to feel ashamed.
"Okay, okay, I understand."
"You hurry up and rest for a while, let the other fighters temporarily observe the movements of the devil for you, you are too tired from fighting until now." Zhao Gang said again.
This time, the soldier nodded vigorously, without any opinion, if he didn't see Zhao Gang, the political commissar, coming, then he might have chosen to rest a long time ago. It's not that this warrior wants to be lazy, it's that he really can't bear it, he hasn't been able to rest well for too long, and the next battle will continue, he hopes that he can have a good enough mental state to kill more devils.
Time kept passing, after the soldiers rested for half an hour, the devil launched an attack in the direction of the cross ridge again, this time the devil used all his strength, and the artillery continued to fire at the cross ridge, this time the devil has not used the mountain artillery, but also chose to fire. Obviously, the devil wants to directly attack Cross Ridge in this battle and finish the battle.
After nearly fifteen minutes of shelling, almost all the shells of the devils were exhausted, and these devils knew that the independent regiment still had an artillery company, otherwise they would definitely directly use up all the shells and reduce the resistance encountered on the way to the charge as much as possible. After the shelling ended, the devils attacked from three directions at the same time, and there were two or three hundred devils in each direction.
It can be said that this time the devil launched a charge, using all his own troops, coupled with the non-stop fire of the devil's light and heavy machine guns, it is good to succeed in taking the cross ridge, but if he does not succeed in taking the cross ridge, then the morale of the devil will inevitably be greatly affected, and the defense of the independent regiment will be much easier.
The devil made such a big move, Zhao Gang decisively notified Li Yunlong as soon as possible, and asked Li Yunlong to come to the front line to command the next defensive battle.
"Damn, these devils are crazy, they just ate the heart of a bear and a leopard's gall, who gave them the courage to dare to charge like this? Do you really think they're devils? After observing the devils rushing towards the Cross Ridge, Li Yunlong opened his mouth and scolded.
The strength of the devil is not much, plus the puppet army is less than 1,500 people, and the independent regiment is not in full formation, but there are more than 1,000 people. Li Yunlong didn't understand what the situation of the devil commander was, and he dared to divide his troops when he fought with these troops, which was inevitably a little too much to look down on the independent regiment. Yes, in Li Yunlong's view, this is the devil looking down on the independent regiment.
"Should these devils have something to rely on? The devil commander is not a fool and is not sure, how can he launch a full-scale attack? Zhao Gang said.
Zhao Gang stared at the ghost soldiers who kept rushing in, he could see that under the shooting of the soldiers of the independent regiment, there were devils who kept falling, but the speed of the devil's charge was not greatly affected, and the other charging devils did not stop, as if they were not afraid of death at all. Zhao Gang felt that these devils were very strange, at least the performance of these devils was a little too fearless.
"No matter what the devil's conspiracy is, this is a good opportunity for us to kill and injure the devil's living force!"
"Pass my order, order the whole regiment to join the battle, and give Lao Tzu as many devils as possible! At the same time, the artillery battery of our independent regiment was ordered to fire at the position of the devil artillery and pin down the devil artillery. Li Yunlong directly gave two orders.
There are some problems with the division of troops by the devils, but with the combat effectiveness of the devils, there is still a chance to rush to the cross ridge, and even as long as the soldiers of the independent regiment make any mistakes, then the possibility of the devils rushing to the cross ridge will be greater. In order to cut off the possibility of the devil rushing to the defensive position of the cross ridge, Li Yunlong chose to mobilize all the troops available to the independent regiment, even if it was the man of the cooking class, the horseman had to go to the battlefield to fight the devil.
Because Liu Gen and others killed the devils before and seized a lot of weapons, even if the men and horsemen of the independent regiment went to the battlefield, they did not have to worry about not having enough weapons, and there would never be a situation where they borrowed weapons from the cavalry company.
Ten minutes later, all the troops of the independent regiment arrived at their respective defensive positions, this time Li Yunlong did not have the idea of continuing to launch a counter-charge against the devils, with the performance of these devils, it would be too dangerous to choose a counter-charge again. With the defense of the position, the casualties of the soldiers will be much less, and now there is no big opinion on the charge.
If the Independent Regiment wanted to complete the breakthrough in the encirclement of these devils, then Liu Yunlong would definitely charge without hesitation and defeat these devils head-on. But now that the Independent Regiment is going to defend Cross Ridge, he naturally will not choose to continue to charge with the soldiers, and in the state of the soldiers, it is not suitable to charge.
On the Cross Ridge, the gunfire and artillery have not stopped, the battle of the Independent Regiment is continuing, and Liu Gen and others, who are wounded, are just lying in the hidden corner of the Cross Ridge, waiting for the result of the battle. The wounded who can still fight have already gone to the front line, and the rest are the wounded who can't fight like Liu Gen, if the devil really rushes to the cross ridge, then Liu Gen and the others may not have the slightest resistance.
Five hours later, the sound of gunfire from the front line became less and less, which made Liu Gen, who had been awake, realize that the battle was at an end, and he didn't know if the devil had retreated from the independent regiment.
