At the front line, seeing Lin Rui coming back, Zhou Weihan and Lin Feng and others immediately got up to greet each other: "Yingzao, you're back." ”

"Hmm." Lin Rui nodded slightly, and instructed Zhou Weihan: "Old Zhou, notify the troops to assemble immediately, there is an important combat mission." ”

"Yes!" Zhou Weihan suddenly agreed, saluted and quickly turned to leave.

……

On the banks of the Suzhou Creek, the wounded and sick camp of the three battalions.

Shangguan Nianci was changing the dressing and bandaging of a soldier who was injured by the explosion, Li Muxue brought a fried rice, and after she was busy with the work at hand, she handed it to her and said, "Nianci, you haven't eaten for almost a day, hurry up and eat some." ”

Shangguan Nianci raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his forehead, took the fried rice, but handed it to the wounded man in front of him and said, "You can eat it." ”

"Miss Shangguan, I'm not hungry, you can eat." The wounded soldier was moved and resigned with tears in his eyes.

Shangguan Nianci directly grabbed his hand and put the dishes and chopsticks in his hand: "Be obedient, eat more, you can recover as soon as possible, and you can continue to follow your battalion commander to the front line to kill devils in the future!" ”

Li Muxue wanted to speak and stopped, and was pulled away by Shangguan Nianci.

The wounded soldier was moved to tears and took a big gulp, which was the most fragrant meal he had ever eaten.

Li Muxue complained with some resentment: "Nianci, that is the last fried rice in the cooking class, I specially left it for you." ”

Shangguan Nianci patted her shoulder and comforted her: "It's okay, I'm not hungry, compared to these wounded soldiers who are full of injuries and pain, compared to the soldiers fighting on the front line, we are hungry is nothing." ”

"But ......" Li Muxue wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Shangguan Nianci: "Just get me some warm boiled water, just fill your hunger and lose weight." ”

Li Muxue glanced at Shangguan Nianci: "When is it, are you still in the mood to joke." ”

Shangguan Nianci smiled, looked back in the direction of the front line, and saw scarlet fires rising into the sky everywhere, as if to illuminate the vast night sky.

Before Lin Rui was ordered to rush to the Lion Forest with his troops to participate in the battle, Shangguan Nianci did not ask Lin Rui to bring him, but took the initiative to ask to stay and take care of the wounded soldiers.

It's not that she doesn't want to be with Lin Rui, but she understands that fighting on the front line is not her own strength, and going will only become a burden to Lin Rui.

Therefore, she chose to stay and do her best to take care of and treat the wounded soldiers, which can be regarded as a contribution, and at the same time save Lin Rui from worries as much as possible.

Li Muxue brought warm boiled water for her, and seeing that she was in a daze in the southeast direction again, she handed her the kettle and said, "Are you worried about Lin Rui again?" ”

Shangguan Nianci did not deny it: "Yes, the battlefield is so dangerous, and I don't know how he is now." ”

Li Muxue comforted: "Don't worry, Lin Rui is so powerful, he will definitely be able to turn evil into good fortune." ”

Shangguan Nianci bowed slightly, and silently prayed for Lin Rui in his heart.

……

On the position of the third battalion, except for the necessary guard sentries, all the officers and men of the entire third battalion were ordered to complete the assembly.

They stood in the trenches in rows, waiting for Lin Rui's orders.

After two fierce battles, the third battalion was sharply reduced from 300 to 200 men. Therefore, Lin Rui and Yu Weiguo discussed, and each selected 100 people from their units, and then selected 100 people from other units of the 2nd Regiment of the Tax Police.

Form a commando team to serve as the vanguard of this night raid counterattack.

Yu Weiguo went back to his unit to pick people, Zhou Weihan strode up to Lin Rui, saluted him and reported: "Camp, all the three battalions have been assembled, please instruct!" ”

Lin Rui nodded, then jumped on a bunker next to him, condescendingly glanced at the soldiers of the third battalion who were densely packed in the trenches, and said in a loud voice: "Brothers, I have just received an order from the regiment to organize an assault team to launch a night attack counterattack against the Japanese invaders for the vanguard of the whole regiment, so as to recapture our lost position!"

Now, all 8 companies are out of the ranks! ”

In the crowd, dozens of officers and soldiers of the Eighth Company walked out one after another and gathered in the trench in front of Lin Rui.

The Eighth Company is Lin Rui's old unit, so this time they will definitely all join the commando.

After nodding to dozens of subordinates, Lin Rui said in a deep voice to the remaining more than 100 officers and soldiers of the third battalion: "Who is the only male in the family to raise his hand!" ”

Seeing that the soldiers looked at each other and didn't understand their intentions, Lin Rui said: "The death squad will die for nine lives, the only son will stay, and the others will follow me!" ”

Hearing Lin Rui say this, none of the officers and soldiers raised their hands.

It's not that there are no only children, but they don't want to stay, and they want to join the death squad with their battalion commander.

Lin Rui looked at this scene and was slightly moved, the Chinese soldiers in this era are the best soldiers just like the era he came from.

Perhaps most of them did not have any decent knowledge and education, but in this great and arduous Great Patriotic War, they all showed the responsibility and courage that a Chinese soldier should have.

Knowing that death might occur, they resolutely have no fear and take the initiative to invite Ying to participate in the war, which is the bloody nature of the Chinese and the spirit of not admitting defeat and not afraid of death.

Throughout the 5,000-year history of China, the sky leaked us to make up for the sky, the sun was more, we shot the sun, the flood came, we controlled the water, defended the nomads, we built the Great Wall, the north-south transportation was inconvenient, we built canals, we did not believe in God, did not believe in the sky, and only relied on ourselves to fight the sky and the earth just to survive.

Japan invaded China, and the Chinese once again came to the time of life and death, then we will resist Japan!

The third battalion, which was completely ignited by Lin Rui's enthusiasm and fighting spirit, is a microcosm of all the soldiers of the Anti-Japanese War.

In the end, Lin Rui selected dozens of fighters and gathered enough people with the Eighth Company to make up a hundred people. More than half an hour later, Yu Weiguo also brought a hundred soldiers from the Independent Brigade of the Guangdong Army to rush over.

Sun Liren also personally selected a hundred elites for them, and carried a hundred flower traps, twenty Czech and twenty Mauser pistols, as well as a large number of grenades and ammunition to the front.

Before leaving, Sun Liren solemnly said to Lin Rui and Yu Weiguo: "I will do my best to provide you with artillery support, and I hope you must be able to successfully break through the defense in one fell swoop!" ”

Lin Rui stood up and saluted and promised: "Please rest assured, if you can't take the Japanese position, no one in the death squad will withdraw from the battle alive!" ”

Sun Liren nodded solemnly and said: "Good job, these words sound uplifting, I wish you success and triumphant return, I ask for credit for you!" ”

After speaking, Sun Liren turned around and left with his adjutant and guards.

Lin Rui handed over the remaining troops of the third battalion to the commander of the first company, and he, together with Yu Weiguo, Lin Feng, Zhou Weihan and others, led three hundred death squads to move to the front-line trenches at the forefront, waiting for the horn of attack.
