(3rd Update)

At this time, most of the Chinese soldiers in Qingyan Village had been led by Hu Zhen and others to take over Achaito's territory.

Even those who had just escaped from the bandits had most of them arranged to accompany the team as guides and porters, leaving only fifteen Chinese soldiers and less than seventy Chinese who had escaped from the bandits in yesterday's battle, except for the wounded and sick and the medical team. The task left by Hu Zhen for the left-behind personnel in the village was to clean up the battlefield under the leadership of Liang Kunri.

The so-called cleaning up of the battlefield is actually to find and collect the weapons left behind by the bandits and bury the bodies of the war dead on both sides.

This is a tiring and necessary work, this is located in the tropics, that is, a dead dog or a cat, if not buried in time, it will stink in a day, not to mention that there are hundreds of bandit corpses lying near Qingyan Village, if it is not handled well, it is likely to break out of the plague immediately.

Liang Kunri sighed greatly, why did he get a dirty job that he didn't fight?

But the military order was difficult to disobey, and he had to jump up and down with all his heart to arrange the command, who called him the battalion commander of the Huaxia Army now. Under the command of Liang Kunri, the work of a group of personnel is still quite efficient:

First, concentrate the capable personnel to collect and transport the weapons and ammunition left by the bandits outside the village back to the village, especially those cannons and two heavy machine guns, even if they are backward than the weapons of the Huaxia army, they must be collected in case of emergency.

At the same time, everyone used the most dignified way to sort out and bury the remains of the Chinese people who were captured by the bandits to work as coolies, and repaired tombstones.

Then, far away from Qingyan Village, he dug several big pits, lifted and dragged them, and hurriedly lived for three days before all the corpses of the bandits that could be seen with the naked eye were buried and processed.

Starting from the fourth day, Liang Kunri led everyone to use their noses to find the corpses of bandits that stinked in the jungle, which was the most troublesome work, and many times, it was not a complete bandit corpse at all, but a hand, or a foot, or an organ.

Liang Kunri didn't know how many times he vomited, and he wanted to vomit as soon as he ate for a few days, and the commander of the detachment was still like this, and the others were even better.

Finally, a doctor made a safer suggestion, as soon as he found the smell, he no longer approached to clean up, but directly circled it, threw a pile of dry firewood and hay, and set it on fire. Liang Kunri instructed everyone to work for another five days according to the suggestion, and the air near Qingyan Village gradually became fresher.

On the morning of the thirteenth day, Liang Kunri finally ate a breakfast without vomiting or vomiting.

Immediately after breakfast, the Gatling heavy machine gun and the Maxim heavy machine gun were pondered, and the soldiers were taught to practice the shooting techniques of the heavy machine gun. He was reluctant to use the brand-new heavy machine gun for training, and wanted to use the captured heavy machine gun to train the recruits.

Under his encouragement, the recruits conducted drills in a similar manner and conducted a live-fire operation training, and the sound of continuous shooting resounded in all directions.

At this moment, a sentry hurried and reported, panting: "Report! The guard sentry on the top of the hill on the opposite side spotted an unidentified team heading towards us! ”

Liang Kunri was stunned for a moment when he heard this: "What? Did you see it clearly? Could it be that our people are back? ”

"I can see it clearly with a telescope! It's definitely not our people who are back, this group of people is sneaky, walking all the way, hiding, for fear of being discovered by others, just now when we were conducting a machine gun test fire here, this group of people heard the gunshots and were so frightened that they all hid in the jungle, so it can be seen that this is not our people! ”

The fighter who came to report was none other than the one named He Pingxiong, who had been slightly wounded in the battle with the Achaito bandits. Fortunately, I was in good health, and after a few days of treatment, I gradually recovered, and although I have not yet recovered, I am no longer in serious trouble. Today, seeing that there are not enough people in the village, I took the initiative to ask for the work of the guard sentry, and just now I saw that the situation was abnormal, and immediately came to report.

"Do you see how many people are in this group? What weapons are there? ”

"There are more than 400 people! There are not many firearms, guns, weapons, and many people just have some sticks in their hands! ”

Liang Kunri heard Hu Zhen say that He Pingxiong is a talent and can be cultivated more, so he decided to test him slightly: "What do you think of this situation? What are we going to do? ”

"It seems that these people don't know the reality in Qingyan Village, if they knew the reality in the village, they would have rushed over a long time ago, and now there is no danger in the village for the time being. We have too few people, those recruits have not gone through much training, whether they can shoot with guns is a problem, if they understand the actual situation in the village, really attack, with our excellent weapons, the other side will definitely not be able to attack, but with our troops can not take the initiative to attack the other side. It is suggested that in addition to immediately sending communication personnel to report the urgency to the main force, I think we can arrange the necessary guard posts in the village, and concentrate all the remaining personnel on the hill opposite the village with guns, deliberately pretending that we are numerous and fully armed, and delay for a while so as to gain time and wait for the main force to return! ”

Liang Kunri originally planned to retreat to the village with all his personnel, waiting for the enemy to attack, and maximize the power of heavy weapons to kill and injure the enemy, but that would make Qingyan Village suffer the impact of the enemy again, and Liang Kunri was not happy in his heart.

And He Pingxiong's suggestion is very safe, if the enemy comes less, you can also act at the opportunity, and rely on the existing strength to defeat the enemy, if the enemy comes more, you can buy more time to wait for the main force to come back, and more importantly, the wounded and sick in Qingyan Village are not disturbed,

Liang Kunri nodded: "Oh! Yes, we can make an empty plan! But what do we do if the other side immediately attacks? ”

"Of course, it is to retreat immediately, concentrate on retreating to Qingyan Village, rely on the fortifications and walls, use our heavy weapons to defend, and strive to hold out until the main force returns!"

"How long do you think we can hold out in the wall?"

"This, this...... It's hard to say, it depends on the number of people dispatched by the opponent, the quality of the weapon, and the strength of the will to attack. "For this manpower, whether he can withstand the impact of the other party and defend Qingyan Village steadily, He Pingxiong really has no bottom in his heart.

After all, He Pingxiong is a person of this era, and he is not very clear about the power of light and heavy machine guns.

However, Liang Kunri was very familiar with the powerful power of light and heavy machine guns, and knew that with the light and heavy machine guns, mortars, and recoilless guns in Qingyan Village, although the troops were small and the attack was difficult, the defense was more than enough. And that unknown team only has four or five hundred people, and since it has been discovered, it is impossible to sneak attack, and with their cowering appearance, if they dare to attack, they will definitely not be able to get any advantage in front of their own big killing weapons.
