Here, He Huizhang set an example, using himself as a gun mount and bottom plate to ensure that the mortars fired in time. Cooperate with the machine guns under the mountain to suppress the counterattack fire of the puppet army. Zhou Tong under the mountain led a few soldiers to carry the disassembled heavy mountain cannon parts and moved forward at the fastest speed.

The age of this old cannon is really a bit old, even more than the age of more than half of the soldiers of the whole regiment. For the sake of insurance, Zhou Tong could only advance the position of the cannon as much as possible. Moving until he arrived at Li Ziyuan's location, Zhou Tong assembled the mountain cannon as quickly as possible.

It's just that at this time, there is no place for his mountain artillery. The two companies of the second battalion in front, under the cover of machine guns and mortars from the mountain, had already rushed to the puppet army camp, mixed with the puppet army in front of them, mixed with the puppet army in front of them, and had already disrupted the formation of the puppet army. If the cannon is fired at this time, it may be impossible to tell who will suffer more casualties.

But although these puppet armies have been disrupted, they have shown considerable tenacity. Under the command of officers and veterans, they are still desperately resisting. Not only did he hold a rifle with a bayonet, but he fought a white-knuckle battle with the second battalion that rushed over. There are even soldiers who refuse to surrender their guns even if they are held down.

There are not many puppet armies that can fight white-knuckle warfare, and even fewer are so tenacious. It's just that the tenacity of these people, as far as the entire Chinese people are concerned, is on the wrong side. If they had fought so tenaciously in the war against Japan, I am afraid that they would have won the respect of the Chinese people.

It is a pity that they are now working for the invaders who invaded their own country, as well as those traitors who betrayed their country for glory. Such a good soldier did not fall on the battlefield of defending the country, but fell in the midst of fighting for the invaders and tigers, which is very embarrassing and emotional.

Although the opponent has been disrupted, the stubborn resistance of these puppet troops made this battle not easy for the second battalion. And Li Ziyuan, who was in the back, looked at the scuffle in front of him, his brows furrowed. In the battle ahead, the current strength of the second battalion alone is still a little unbearable. This puppet army is not a battalion, but a reinforced battalion.

The two companies invested in the second battalion are far larger than ordinary infantry companies at present. However, there are too many recruits who have not experienced actual combat, and when they are equal in number and extremely tenacious with the enemy, they cannot completely solve the battle for a while. Now on the battlefield over there, there needs to be another fire.

Looking at the chaotic but never-collapsed puppet army in front of him, Li Ziyuan also shook his head and said nothing. If these puppet soldiers can join their own troops, they are all good soldiers, not to mention other aspects, this tenacious momentum is incomparable to ordinary armies. It's just a pity that these people are on the wrong track.

Although he was a little emotional, for Li Ziyuan, there was not much time left for him. Li Ziyuan turned around and said to He Sanliang, who had already exercised: "Old He, there is a stalemate ahead, and the second battalion will not be able to eat these puppet soldiers in one bite in a short time. Now you still need to add a fire, you let Dong Ping and them press it immediately. ”

"You tell him that whatever you say, it's a joke. Whether they were mules or horses could only be seen on the battlefield. I'm going to see now if they can still fight, and how well they perform on the battlefield. Do they really have two hits, or do they just play some lip service? ”

In fact, there is no need for He Sanliang to convey it, Dong Ping followed He Sanliang at this time. Of course, Li Ziyuan also saw Dong Ping's figure, but he didn't see it. For Li Ziyuan, at this time he needs veterans to play a role at critical moments. And for an ally that has had an unpleasant relationship before, sending a general is naturally not as good as a radical general.

As soon as Li Ziyuan's words fell, Dong Ping, who was following behind He Sanliang, didn't say anything. Some uncomfortable meanings in Li Ziyuan's tone, he heard it at once. How many people who have led troops to fight all year round have a good temper and character? Originally, he had lost the battle this time, and he already felt that he couldn't raise his head.

In Li Ziyuan's words, how could he accept those meanings that were not directly singled out? Li Ziyuan's words made Dong Ping suddenly become a pepper. He pulled out a big knife from behind him and shouted to the subordinates around him, "Is it a master?" If so, then rush up with Lao Tzu to kill the two devils, and let the prefects and brothers of the Eighth Road see if we are a bad seed. ”

After speaking, he took the lead in rushing out with a shell gun in one hand and a big knife in the other. And behind him, his subordinates did not hesitate at all, holding a Hanyang-made rifle with a bayonet and rushing out behind him. It's just that after Dong Ping and his troops rushed out, the old squad leader didn't know when to follow.

The divisional commander had to give up three points, but the third old secretary who seemed to have had some grudge with Dong Ping hung his iconic dry tobacco pouch. looked at Dong Ping, who took the lead in rushing forward, but the corners of his mouth twitched: "This turtle son, he is doing it for Lao Tzu." It's still so impulsive at this age, no wonder he's still just a battalion lieutenant. ”

"Captain, there are a lot of roundworms in your kid's stomach. Don't look at the age of this guy, but this face is still very thin, so he can't stand the excitement. If you don't provoke him, he'll be fine. As for the veterans under him, it will be quite difficult for you to let them fight for us. ”

Regarding the words of the old squad leader, Li Ziyuan, who was all thinking about the battle situation at the moment, had no time to worry about him. As for what grievances there are between the two people, he doesn't have time to pay attention to them now. If this battle is successfully fought, the whole regiment will open a way to survive, and if it is not fought well, the whole army will be in danger of being annihilated here.

Li Ziyuan didn't speak again, the three old secretaries arrived at the position this time, but they were a little unwilling to be lonely. From Li Ziyuan's guards, he asked for Li Ziyuan's Enfield rifle and twenty rounds of ammunition. After knocking out the ashes in the cigarette pouch and pot, he carried the gun and quickly moved to a distance of 200 meters from the battlefield with skillful tactical movements.

This veteran-turned-secretary of the secretary, after moving to the position he wants. Unplugged the magazine of the Enfield rifle in his hand and looked at the bullets inside. Unhurriedly, he stretched out his gun, and in the darkness of the night, using the opposite firelight as illumination. There is almost no need to aim, and it is almost one shot at a time, depending on the feeling of the gun.

The old squad leader's marksmanship made the guards behind Li Ziyuan almost lose their jaws. You must know that this Enfield rifle is not made in Hanyang, which has a large number of domestic equipment, nor is it a relatively large number of formal or Czech-style 79 rifles, and it is not a Japanese-made 38-type rifle with a lot of trophies.

You must know that the Type 38 rifle, even before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, was no stranger to the Chinese people. Not only did the Jin Sui army equip a large number of imitations of this rifle, but other armies also imported a large number of original goods. Even if it is not as good as the 79 rifle, it is definitely the first in terms of the number of imported rifles.

Before the Anti-Japanese War, at least the Chinese soldiers were no strangers to the Type 38 rifle. But there are few British-made rifles with unique bullets in the country. Moreover, the performance of this rifle is unique compared with other manual rifles, both in terms of ballistic performance and firearm performance.

At present, the whole group is up and down, and Li Ziyuan has one in his hand. Even if you are a veteran of playing with guns, you must be familiar with this brand new rifle for a while. Since this old squad leader was transferred to his own unit, he has never seen him touch a gun. In such a short period of time, he actually played this gun so brilliantly.

It is equivalent to a guard who is quite surprised by the old squad leader's marksmanship, but Li Ziyuan himself didn't care. The military age of this old squad leader is almost catching up with his own age. Although he is now the secretary general, even if he is not equipped with a gun, he basically does not touch a gun, but when people played with guns before, I am afraid that I was not born in this era.

Those veterans who came down from the battlefield, who fought in the flames of war all year round, developed a sense of familiarity with guns, which these young people can understand. What's more, this old squad leader has a different experience. Marksmanship is not unusual, but if marksmanship is not good, it is unusual. What's more, they are all manual rifles, and even if there is a certain difference, it is not big.

For those veterans who play with guns, the sense of guns that they have developed all year round is not something that ordinary people can imagine. This kind of person, as long as the performance is about the same, the average gun can play very slippery. Of course, most of the old squad leader's bullets were around Dong Ping, and Li Ziyuan just laughed.

The Enfield rifle in his hand knocked out one or two officers with short guns from time to time. But as long as Dong Ping, who was in charge of the big knife over there, was in danger, his bullets could always arrive in time to relieve Dong Ping. The first shot fired was to knock down a pseudo-officer who tried to sneak up on Dong Ping from behind.

Of course, Li Ziyuan didn't see this. If there is any personal grudge between the two people, Li Ziyuan has no time to care about it now. Despite the performance of the old squad leader, Li Ziyuan was also very curious. But it doesn't mean that Li Ziyuan is in the mood to participate now. Especially now, when Dong Ping's company joined, the situation on the battlefield has changed rapidly.

Under the suppression of Li Ziyuan's dense light and heavy firepower, the casualties of this puppet army were not light. Under the impact of the second battalion, although it did not collapse at that time, the casualties were definitely not light, and it was already in a situation of struggling to support. At this moment, Dong Ping's department became the last straw that crushed the camel.

After Dong Ping joined, the remaining puppet army in front of him was really unable to bear it, and a small number of them retreated all the way to the east, and most of them surrendered. Finally solved this puppet army and opened the way out of Basongling. Looking at the flat Shangdang Basin opposite, even though it was only the first step, everyone, including Li Ziyuan, breathed a sigh of relief.

At the end of the battle, the old squad leader threw the Enfield rifle back into the guard's arms. I underestimate that I am old, and my skills are not so flexible. This gun is not bad, there are some minor problems that he has already * healed a kind of. didn't pay attention to Dong Ping's grateful gaze, and turned around directly to return to his position.

For these two people, Li Ziyuan didn't have time to deal with him. The intensity of the battle was more than he had expected. But fortunately, the duration is still roughly within his calculations. Turning around and glancing at Basongling behind him, Li Ziyuan simply cleaned up the battlefield.

And those more than 100 puppet soldiers who disarmed and surrendered, Li Ziyuan didn't have time to collect these prisoners at this time, let alone talk to these prisoners. After he just collected their weapons, the gang was dismissed on the spot. With his troops, he went straight to the place where the guns were fired to the south.
