Chapter 121: Departure
"Battalion Commander Qin, look at our tanks, do you want to think about it and take back what you said yesterday?" Long Yuhang was on top of the tank car, patted the armor plate of his tank and said.
Qin Chuan glanced at the fragile armor plate of the Vickers tank, and thought to himself that his Barrett anti-materiel sniper rifle would be enough to directly penetrate this tank.
"Battalion Commander Long, if you have time to talk to me about this here, it is better to tell the other combat units and let them pay attention to how to coordinate with each other!" Qin Chuan said.
Long Yuhang snorted coldly and said, "I don't need you to teach me how to use these tanks." ”
With that, he kicked the driver and motioned for him to start the tank and drive towards Yang Ruifu's first camp block.
Looking at Long Yuhang's majestic and high-spirited posture, Qin Chuan only smiled bitterly and shook his head.
Because of his words, it is really bitter. In order to reduce the tank losses of their armored battalion, it turned out that they were not taken seriously by Long Yuhang at all.
Therefore, Qin Chuan has always agreed with the sentence in "The Three-Body Problem".
"Weakness and ignorance are never an obstacle to survival, arrogance is!"
The atmosphere of the battle began to envelop the gate position of the 88th Division once again. All the soldiers are hurrying to prepare for battle.
The soldiers of the Ninth Company and the Guard Platoon were writing suicide notes.
But there are many people who can't read, so they can only ask some doctors and nurses in the hospital to write for them, and they dictate, and those nurses and doctors have become ghostwriters at this time.
Xiao Mao also became a member of the crowd who wrote the suicide note, he held a pen and helped a soldier who was dictating his last words, writing his last words.
"Long Wen! This suicide note was written to my brother, and he said, the master has become a soldier, and now he is going to fight the position of the little devil.
I don't know if I can come back alive, and when I have a child, can I call Long Wensheng. The grandfather may die on the battlefield this time, and if the little nephew is born, maybe the grandfather will be reincarnated. ”
After Long Wen said these last words, he grinned.
Listening to Long Wen's accent, Xiao Mao couldn't help but look up and ask, "Where is your letter going?" ”
Long Wen thought for a long time, and then said: "Beiping! ”
Peiping! A few months ago, it had fallen into the hands of the Japanese army.
Long Wen and his brother escaped, but they were separated halfway. At this time, he didn't know where his brother was, only that his hometown was in the countryside of Beiping.
Hearing the name of the place that Long Wen said, Xiao Mao was stunned, and then tears filled his eyes.
When he heard about the fall of Beiping, he didn't feel much about it.
But at this time, in this foreign land thousands of miles away from Beiping City, the weather is cooler in Shanghai City in October.
When he heard the people in his hometown suddenly say the name of the place, tears fell uncontrollably.
It's like the death of someone dealine, and you don't feel undue grief.
What is really sad is when you walk the path you walked with him, when you suddenly hear about him from someone else, when you subconsciously call out his name, but you can't get a response from that person.
"Oops, forgot, Beiping is gone. So, let's change places! As if he had suddenly thought of something, Long Wen hurriedly changed his words.
But he didn't know where to send the letter from another place. After all, his relatives are all in Beiping.
"No need to change it!" Xiao Mao said, raised his head and looked at Long Wen and said, "Wait... When Beiping is recovered, I'll bring it to you! You can tell me the detailed address! ”
When Long Wen heard this promise, a smile suddenly appeared on his face. Even he didn't know when Beiping would be recovered, and then he gave a detailed address.
That address may not mean anything to someone else. But for Long Wen, it represents all his past.
His childhood, his family and friends, his homeland. It's all in that short line of words.
And at this moment, that place has been occupied by the Japanese army, and he can no longer go back. became a wanderer.
"Nameless, do you have anything to say to bring to your father?" Qin Chuan took the pen and asked the nameless Dao beside him.
Nameless thought for a moment, then took out a piece of candy from his arms and said, "There is nothing to say, sugar is delicious, Daddy will like it very much." ”
As she said this, she smiled faintly.
Qin Chuan shook his head with a smile, and then didn't say anything more.
The sun was setting, and for many of the soldiers involved in the attack tonight, it would be the last touch of sunset they would ever see.
The troops of the 88 Division, began to make final operational preparations. A large number of soldiers had already entered the trenches, just waiting for the bombardment of artillery fire from the rear.
Once the artillery bombardment from the rear was over, they would begin to launch a fierce charge at the Japanese positions.
The soldiers of the third battalion also entered their respective positions. But unlike the rest of the troops, the positions of the 38th Wing of the Japanese Army, which they were going to attack, would not be covered by artillery fire.
Because among the troops supported by the rear artillery, the three battalions of Qin Chuan were excluded. His troops will not receive a single shell from the rear artillery units.
Sun Yuanliang's dissatisfaction with Qin Chuan completely erupted at yesterday's meeting.
He wanted Qin Chuan to know who was the one who spoke his word in the entire 88th Division. And Qin Chuan is just a small battalion commander, who can be used as cannon fodder by him at any time and thrown into the troops charging on the front line.
On the banks of the Suzhou Creek, the soldiers of the Ninth Company and the Guard Platoon who have completed the assembly.
After the artillery bombardment began, they would enter the Suzhou Creek and take advantage of the cover of night to make a detour back to the flank and rear positions of the Japanese troops.
Fighting alone, as long as there was a problem in any part of the battle plan, they would be surrounded by the Japanese army. Their chances of survival will be infinitely close to zero!
"Brethren, armored battalions, artillery support, none of us!
None of us can rely on ourselves, we can only rely on ourselves! The damned position occupied by the 38th Wing of the Japanese Army on the opposite side, we are going to take it! We have to prove that the third battalion can do what other units can't! Qin Chuan stood on the banks of the Suzhou Creek and shouted to mobilize the soldiers.
At this time, the morale of these soldiers was high, and after hearing Qin Chuan's words, they raised their arms and shouted: "Destroy the Thirty-Eighth Wing!" Destroy the 38th Wing of the Japanese Army!! ”。
Qin Chuan said in a loud voice: "Let's go!" ”
When the soldiers heard this, they put on their diving masks and jumped into the icy waters of the Suzhou River.
