The battle was over, positions were recaptured. Although the Japanese army was repulsed, the price paid by the Chinese army was even greater, and in the local counterattack just now, only more than 50 of the more than 70 people in the third battalion remained, and a platoon of the special service company was also folded by half a squad. Zhang Wei's losses were not large, even the charge with close combat was only five dead and four wounded, the worst was the transport company, they had mastered the basic combat skills, but they were only mastered, not to mention that against the elite Japanese army, a complete transport company was left with less than 100 people, and even the platoon commander was almost killed and wounded.

The corpses of the transporters and other troops were piled up inside and outside the trenches, and the first trench, which had been filled in by corpses, was blocked up by the increase of corpses, and piled up into small mountain bags.

Those who survived took advantage of the battle to clear the trenches and prepare their bunkers for the next battle. The corpses of the Japanese soldiers in the first trench were picked up and piled aside or on the side of the position, and no one cared about them. The bodies of the soldiers of the national army were properly piled together by the soldiers and buried en masse.

The wounded soldiers sat together with the support of their comrades, waiting for the stretcher bearers in the rear to carry them, and now there was no spare manpower to send them away.

After Zhang Wei assisted the soldiers in cleaning up the wounded, he asked Hao Zhong and the other two platoons to return to the western highlands first, and walked to the black-faced lieutenant Rao Guowen and the third battalion commander Lu Yuding.

"Hello two chiefs," Zhang Wei said

"You are the company commander now, and I am also the company commander, don't call me the commander, Battalion Commander Lu is." Rao Guowen made a joke very funny. After speaking, he and Lu Yuding looked at each other and smiled, but Zhang Wei was very embarrassed.

"It's funny, I'm a temporary one, you have a serious official position and position, and you are a company commander recognized by the Quanxu Hall."

Rao Guowen smiled, and he didn't dwell on this issue.

Sir, how to defend this position next, Zhang Wei glanced at Lu Yuding and said, Lu Yuding sighed: "Now there are only these people left, there are still more than 50 people in my third battalion, and the two platoons of the special service company have finished this battle, barely counting one and a half platoons, and transporting 100 people, but even the platoon commander has been killed, Zhang Wei, the loss of your reinforcement company is not big, and there are more than 100 people, but you can't move in the western highlands." ”

The three of them lasted for a long time, and finally Rao Guowen thought of a way, the platoon commanders of these transport troops were all killed, and they lost their command, so they simply dispersed and supplemented the troops of the three to participate in the battle. The soldiers of the transport company were thus "divided" by the three.

Zhang Wei had a chill, he came to this era, the official was not yet a big official, and the ability to annex the army began to practice first. For a unit of 100 people, Rao Guowen asked for 20 platoons of supplementary spy companies, and Lu Yuding asked for more than 40, after all, there were only more than 50 people left in the third battalion, and the remaining 30 or so people were supplied to Zhang Wei.

After the three of them divided the transportation company, they arranged the defense, and the first platoon and the third battalion of the special service company still stuck to their original positions, and Zhang Wei's reinforced company guarded the western highlands. There was no difference from the previous arrangement, except that two platoons of the special service company were added to the main position.

After several people finished discussing and were preparing for the specific arrangement, Zhang Wei saw the soldiers beside him carrying the corpses of Japanese soldiers.

"I almost forgot about it" Zhang Wei patted his head and stopped Rao Guowen and Lu Yuding. Two chiefs, our company has a high terrain and a good view, can you let me scavenge some bits and pieces of the Japanese and go back?

"Fragments? What are you looking for? Lu Yuding asked with interest, and Rao Guowen also came over.

Sir, I don't want a gun, can you give me the grenadiers, grenades and grenades on the Japanese, some of us will use this thing, and when the time comes, we can give the two commanders some support if we occupy the high ground, and the brothers in the main position can suffer less crimes.

The two glanced at Zhang Wei, and before Rao Guowen could speak, Lu Yuding readily agreed, and good things should be given to those who can use them. After speaking, Zhang Wei began to rummage through the search squad soldiers who had been following him, to say that the Japanese had left more than 60 corpses on this position, a lot of rifles, and few grenadiers, and it took half a day to turn over three of them, nearly 40 grenades, and a lot of 91-style grenades were found, and there were more than 70 rounds.

After thanking the two, Zhang Wei took the people of the search squad and the divided transport soldiers and began to move to the high ground, and the reinforced company on the high ground was eating, only mixed noodles and steamed buns. The wounded soldiers were also carried away on stretchers. He Kun hurriedly ran over, looking at the things in Zhang Wei's hand and the soldiers behind him, he asked, "Company commander, what's going on?" ”

"Call the four platoon commanders, these soldiers are disrupted and fill in your respective platoons, make up for the shortage as much as possible, and then ask the veterans to teach more life-saving methods and combat common sense."

After He Kun left with more than 30 soldiers, Zhang Wei asked the people from the search squad to call the mortar squad. Dong Erli came over with someone, he thought he was going to replenish the troops, but he didn't expect it to be a grenadier, looking at the grenadiers and ammunition on the ground, Dong Erli's eyes lit up.

Zhang Wei scolded him with a smile and handed him three grenadiers and ammunition. Erli, after you teach your people, add your original one, and make it into four grenadier sets. The rest of the people you take with you are responsible for observing and commanding, and when the Japanese come over, you ask them to observe where the machine guns and the Japanese grenadiers are, and then organize grenadier fire and knock them out.

After listening to this, Dong Erli nodded thoughtfully.

Zhang Wei said to him again: "After the fight starts, don't patronize our one-third of an acre of land, and fight the main position as well, they are all their own brothers, and they can help." ”

Dong Erli nodded, and took people down to organize training.

The sun was setting, it was getting late, Zhang Wei nibbled on the mixed noodles and steamed buns sent by the search team, thinking that the Japanese would not attack today. There will be artillery bombardment at night, this is routine, tomorrow, it will be the 12th, according to the memory of the previous life, the great commander Tang Shengzhi should have issued a retreat order at some time tomorrow, and then several troop commanders abandoned the army and fled, leaving only one oral retreat order for the troops.

And he, after giving the order, crossed the Yangtze River by himself, perfectly practicing his pre-war rhetoric. The troops inside and outside the city ushered in a catastrophe.

Killing prisoners, the Yangtze River, blood water, barbed wire, strafing, the brothers struggled in the ferry boat on the Yangtze River, fell into the water, and finally were strafed and rammed. Zhang Wei's eyes widened, this scene. One terrible tragedy after another seemed to be happening right in front of his eyes.

As if he saw himself, he desperately climbed onto a snatched ferry, and the troops behind him began to kill each other in order to fight for the boat, and the helpless people hid aside. Suddenly, the Japanese appeared, strafing with impunity, and their own ferries were getting farther and farther away.

He saw Zhang Yi, the commander of the sergeant battalion who died in the battle, and the regimental commander Xie Chengrui, who fell in the crowd, was bleeding; And thousands of Corps brothers died. Zhang Wei's eyes widened, and those scenes looked like a movie in front of him.

No, never. I'm going to do my best, to do my best, to change as much as I can.

It's getting late, and the winter night has come.
