1186. We are all walking ghosts
It is much more pity that such young and vigorous people die than those who are old and seriously ill. But in the face of such a criminal war, these loveliest and most precious things of mankind are not worth mentioning, and they are all destroyed.
Therefore, even if Sangou can know most of the grassroots fighters, he is reluctant to have deep friendships with them, because in Sangou's eyes, most of their lovely and fresh lives will die on the battlefield.
Looking at the hundreds of people, most of them are ghosts who are about to die, what a sad and sad and helpless feeling.
Sangou deeply felt the tears on the instructor's old black face when he saw the old black face of the instructor at the graduation ceremony of the military academy that year.
What Lao Hei saw in his eyes, just as he saw in Sangou's eyes, were all ghosts walking, how many of these young people could survive?
In this protracted and cruel war, even the three dogs themselves can't ensure safety, can't guarantee that they will survive to the end, since they are all likely to die in battle, the sense of grief and powerlessness will be a little less.
Anyway, everyone is the same, but everyone is together at this point in time, and at the next point in time, they will meet in another space.
Another point, Sangou has no way to mix with these recruits often, that is time, and now as a battalion commander, a lot of time is not enough.
A large amount of official business occupies Sangou's time, and he can only have the opportunity to mess with the recruits during weekday training, patrolling various infantry companies.
Even so, Sangou was still very distressed to see these fresh lives disappearing on the battlefield, not only for the sake of the combat strength of the troops, but also for the primitive kind of human beings.
But in the war, as a soldier, as a veteran, I have to face the cruelty of the battlefield, put away the overflowing women's kindness, and use a stronger counterattack to avenge these brothers who died in battle.
In this way, they in heaven will receive the best consolation.
At this moment, it is also the moment of revenge, the decline of the Japanese army has slowly appeared, but afraid of the main force of the Japanese army, according to the battle line and firepower distribution, it is estimated that there is a wing of Japanese troops on the first line of Yuntou Mountain.
Therefore, as an infantry battalion, it is absolutely impossible to venture into the hinterland of one wing of the enemy, even if the entire 51st Division loses the support of artillery fire, it cannot defeat a wing of the enemy.
Now it is imperative to immediately hold on to the hill positions abandoned by the enemy, and each company will be divided into shifts, so as to ensure that most of the people have time to sleep.
During this period of continuous fighting, the soldiers were so tired that they even shook when they walked, and if they continued like this, something big would happen, Sangou was extremely anxious, and hurriedly took advantage of this time when the enemy was defeated and retreated, and ordered the whole battalion to sleep on the spot.
Each company is stationed in its own defense area, and keeps a close eye on the enemy, in case the enemy will come back and forth, although it can be concluded that the Japanese army will not and dare not do this, but it is still necessary to take precautions.
Sangou also seized the time, sleeping on the ground in the temporary command post, and the marching bed was given to the seriously wounded who had no time to transport it down.
The villagers in Shanggao are really good, they are all at this point, and there are still people coming over to transport food and ammunition one after another, and carry the seriously wounded down, this kind of battle without worries has made Sangou a lot easier.
Although you can sleep for a while, sleeping in the wet mud is not a very enjoyable thing, but everyone is already tired, whether it is mud or stones, lie down and fall asleep in seconds, close your eyes and fall asleep.
Although this sleep is not long, it is estimated that it will only come in an hour, but for the soldiers of the third battalion, it is like nectar for a long drought, which is really precious.
For Sangou, too, he has been staying up late late, in order to refresh himself, he keeps smoking, his mouth is rotten like a rag, his mouth is turned out, and it is swollen into a pig's intestine.
His eyes were blood-red and swollen like two red peaches. The hair and beard are large and messy, the cheeks are so thin that the cheekbones are high, and the voice is hoarse, like a ghost.
This sleep was extremely sweet, and I didn't have any dreams, I just knew that I fell asleep when I lay down, until I was woken up by Xiao Jiang, the leader of the battalion guard platoon.
"Battalion commander, the devil is here to gas him."
Sangou turned over one by one, immediately picked up the phone, and went to the headquarters of the Ninth Company, which was an outpost position, and the commander of the Ninth Company, Tie Nong, was also guarding the phone, waiting for the order of the three dogs.
The mobile post in front was the first to know that the Japanese army had used poison gas, and it was already dawn after dawn, the sky was still bright, and the mist at the foot of the mountain was layered.
I can't tell if it's a mist or poisonous gas, it's slowly filling in, but the swimming sentinels at the outpost have already smelled it, so it's basically definite news.
The devil's poison gas is not the most feared, the key is that the troops do not bring many gas masks now, although the transport team of the high townsman brought a little.
But after all, in the pursuit of the troops, this kind of gas mask is rarely brought, and more weapons, ammunition and food are brought.
"The order is that if each company has gas masks, all of them should wear them, and if they don't, they will be solved on the spot, and if they can't be solved, they will temporarily retreat to the top of the mountain."
Sangou briefly issued an order for the signal corps to call the various company commanders, and now with a hand-cranked telephone, the order is much faster.
It's just to lay the telephone line, so that these telephone soldiers can sleep a little less at night, but you can also follow the Japanese army's telephone line, and directly connect the phone, after connecting, only maintenance work remains, which will be much better.
Sangou didn't expect that it would be early in the morning, the Japanese artillery and planes did not come to bomb, but the poison gas came first, and the devils of the dog day were really vicious, and they wanted to poison the Chinese soldiers in their sleep.
Xiucai took the hay outside and constantly tested the direction of the wind, and finally suddenly ran in excitedly and shouted at Sangou: "Sangou, hurry, the wind direction has suddenly turned, prepare for battle, prepare for pursuit." ”
"I'll go, can we have such good luck?" Sangou didn't believe it, for the first time, he felt that God took care of himself so much, and he ran out to test it, and the wind really changed, and the wind gradually increased.
A gust of morning wind blew and blew towards the Japanese position, and those white morning fog and poisonous gases slowly turned and drifted towards the Japanese position.
"Inform all companies that those wearing gas masks should be equipped with submachine guns and sufficient ammunition as much as possible, and as the front team, they will attack and advance immediately."
Seeing this, Sangou was like Zhou Yu who was waiting for the east wind, God help me, devils, you will also have such a day, you will poison yourself by poisoning yourself.
When the Japanese army released poison gas in peacetime, it was necessary to go through a special poison gas unit to test the wind direction and air humidity before they could release poison gas, but this time I don't know why they didn't do it, or if they made a mistake.
Maybe the Japanese army couldn't wait, regardless of 3721, they put the poison gas first, so they didn't expect that the wind would suddenly turn.
