Even so, the Eighth Route Army and the guerrillas paid a great price for eliminating the devils of this squad, and the casualty ratio reached almost one to two.

And this is still an ambush, in the presence of partially preset positions. If this were not the case, I am afraid that the two companies of the Eighth Route Army, plus the 180 guerrillas, would not dare to attack easily.

It's a bit frustrating to say, but that's how it was on the battlefield of resistance against Japan at that time.

It is quite common for the Chinese* army to fight the invaders almost with people, two for one, three for one, or even five or six for one.

There's no way, the fighting quality is there! How many bullets did the Japanese devils shoot in training, and how many opportunities did the Chinese* soldiers have before going into battle?

Within two hundred meters, the hit rate of the devils is already very high; Within a hundred meters, it is already amazing.

On the other hand, being able to hit a chest target at about 100 meters is already considered a good marksmanship in the Eighth Route Army and guerrillas; He can reach a shooting distance of 200 meters, and he is also a top or special shooter in the army.

In addition, the fighters of the Eighth Route Army and the guerrillas were not as clean and neat as the devils in terms of tactical movements, and when they started a battle, they had a position to rely on, and under the accurate shooting of the devils, it was inevitable that the casualties would be large.

Shen Chen had long realized the power of the devil, just at a distance of one or two hundred meters, the devil's marksmanship was not much different from him, and the threat was great.

Therefore, Shen Chen tried to use a longer distance sniper to widen the gap with the devil. At the same time, his camouflage and concealment are even more powerful. At this point, the devil is even further away from him.

The battle is over, and it's a victory, and it's still a big victory. But for the regular army and the partisans, the atmosphere was very different.

For regular troops, battles are frequent, and casualties are commonplace. By now, a company may have changed several people.

Therefore, after a period of grief, the victory should be celebrated, the victory should be celebrated, the personnel should be replenished, and the state of vitality will soon be restored.

It may be uncomfortable to say, but the military during the war years was like that. In the tempering of blood and fire, emotions are wrapped in a hard shell.

And how can an army, shrouded in a haze of sadness and loss, a lifeless army, wrap up its wounds and continue to fight.

But the guerrillas did not experience such great losses, a dozen were killed, and quite a few were wounded.

The comrades-in-arms who were still eating together and laughing the day before yesterday and yesterday were suddenly no longer visible. For the young players, how can they adapt to it for a while?

Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou have done a lot of work, but people's hearts will not be able to settle down for a while.

"Smack!" With a bang, Yu Baogen, who was driving the car, whipped up, but it sounded weak and listless.

Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou glanced at each other, and they couldn't help but smile bitterly and shake their heads.

Shen Chen also sat in the car, stretched out his hand and pushed Yu Baogen, and said, "Cheer up, where is this going, will you fight devils in the future?" I look so dead that I want to kick you off. ”

Yu Baogen is a member of Shen Chen's team, and he was the first to follow him to run around, the two are already very familiar, Shen Chen will be so casual, and he doesn't have to think too much about talking.

Hehe, Yu Baogen showed a smile that was more ugly than crying, and then he looked bitter again.

Shen Chen stopped the car, jumped down and went straight to the small forest on the side of the road, and disappeared behind the trees.

Lao Zhou and Zhao Tie also knew what she was doing, so they chatted casually.

"Da Mei's heart is very hard!" Lao Zhou didn't know if this was a good thing, and said in a deep voice: "It is said that such a team member is qualified, but-"

Zhao Tie thought for a while and said, "Her heart is hot, but there is a hard shell on the outside. ”

Yu Baogen sighed and interjected: "Our captain said that if she-that, everyone is not allowed to shed tears." If anyone cried, she would crawl out of the coffin at night and strangle the weeping person to death. ”

Lao Zhou choked suddenly, this is really a bit scary, especially for those team members who are born as farmers and still have feudal superstitions in their heads.

Zhao Tie rolled his eyes when he heard this, but he really didn't know what to say, so he snorted for a while before he held back a sentence, "This girl is really incurable." ”

Lao Zhou looked up and saw Shen Chen walking over, hurriedly waved his hand, and said, "If you don't treat it, you can't treat it, why do you still want to treat her?" ”

Zhao Tie smiled bitterly, feeling that this difficulty was no lower than fighting devils.

Before noon, Zhao Tie and the others had already rushed to the small elm village where Company Commander Jiang and the others were stationed.

Having won the ambush and eliminated more than half of the enemies in the Zuwang stronghold, it was customary to celebrate.

The district party committee also wanted to take this opportunity to entertain the main force that had returned, and to expand propaganda to enhance the morale of the people in the base areas.

Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou rushed over, just to celebrate with the main force and sweep away the gloomy atmosphere of the guerrillas. Of course, there is also the matter of Shen Chen's pistol being returned.

Because the people who were scheduled to come to offer condolences tomorrow, the troops cleaned the village inside and out, and the clothes were neatly organized, and the soldiers looked energetic one by one.

Although Chiang Lien suffered more casualties because of the reinforcement of the guerrillas, after a short day, the troops were full of vigor again, and the slogans during the training were shocking and the sound of killing was inspiring.

Several people passed the sentry post and came directly to the company headquarters, and under the guidance of the sentry, they walked in.

When he entered the house, Company Commander Jiang was sitting at a table with a disassembled firearm on the table, and he was wiping the gun with a coarse cloth dipped in lubricating oil.

Shen Chen's eyes were sharp, and at a glance he could clearly see that it was his own "eight tones", that is, the Browning M1900 semi-automatic pistol.

Just as he wanted to step forward, Zhao Tie intentionally or unintentionally stepped sideways to block him, and quietly made a gesture to signal him to be calm.

Seeing Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou entering the house, Company Commander Jiang hurriedly put down the parts in his hand, got up and greeted him with a smile.

Shaking hands with Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou, Company Commander Jiang turned his attention to Shen Chen again, and Zhao Tie hurriedly made an introduction.

"It turned out to be the heroine who killed the devil Shaozuo!" Company Commander Jiang laughed, shook hands with Shen Chen, and said, "I have heard Lao Zhou and Team Zhao talk about it for a long time, and today I saw it, and I looked heroic and extraordinary." ”

Shen Chen just smiled and greeted him simply, "Company Commander Jiang, hello." ”

Company Commander Jiang stretched out his hand and enthusiastically accommodated, "Sit, please sit." ”

After everyone sat down, Zhao Tie and Lao Zhou told the guerrillas that they wanted to celebrate the victory with Jiang Lian.

Company Commander Jiang agreed, and asked the signal soldiers to find Instructor Yang. This kind of condolences and gatherings, the instructors who do political work are even more adept, and it seems that Company Commander Jiang does not care very much.

After saying this, it is time to ask for a gun.

Zhao Tie hesitated, but still stubbornly said: "There is one more thing, I want to trouble Company Commander Jiang." ”

Company Commander Jiang didn't know what was going on, and said happily: "What's not troublesome, to put it so politely." ”

Zhao Tie smiled wryly, although he said that he had a guarantee when he came, but the gun was in someone's hand, and it looked very precious, he was really embarrassed to speak.

He couldn't speak, but Shen Chen thought he was silent, and said directly: "Company Commander Jiang, the gun on your desk is mine." ”

An orderly came in to pour water for everyone, and just when he heard Shen Chen speak, he couldn't help but look at him suspiciously.

Company Commander Jiang was also stunned, blinked his eyes, and said with a smile: "It turned out that Comrade Damei was left on the battlefield." When the third platoon commander handed it in, I still wondered, I had never seen a devil use this kind of gun, and I thought it was worn by the Imperial Army! Since it's yours, take it back! ”

The orderly pouted when he heard this, he knew that Company Commander Jiang loved this pistol very much, why did he have to return it as soon as he said it?

"It's a strange battle, you can even lose a gun!" The orderly didn't dare to oppose directly, so he said something strange in a strange way.

Shen Chen glanced at this guy, didn't speak, but his hand was not polite, he assembled it cleanly, replaced it with a new magazine, and inserted it back into the holster on his thigh.

Company Commander Jiang couldn't help but smile and nod as he watched Shen Chenlisuo's movements, and praised: "I just heard that your spear is accurate, and there is no missing bullet." But this pistol is also full of skill! ”

Zhao Tie saw that the gun was coming back, and secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that Shen Chen was taking advantage of the woman's light, and Company Commander Jiang naturally did not want to fight with her.

"That's right." Zhao Tie felt that it was better to explain to Shen Chen, saving the orderly soldier from pulling a face, "The battle was fierce at that time, thanks to the reinforcements of the third platoon, the guerrillas were not crushed. As for Comrade Damei, seeing that the situation was critical, he bravely rushed over and knocked down more than a dozen enemies in a row with a short gun. After the bullets ran out, a devil rushed up with a bayonet, and she didn't have time to change the magazine, so she smashed the gun out, and the devil was bleeding from his nose and mouth......"

"It's worthy of a heroine, dare to fight face-to-face with devils." As soon as Zhao Tie finished speaking, as he spoke, Instructor Yang walked in and shook hands with everyone with a smile.

Instructor Yang shook hands with Shen Chen, looked at them gently, looked at them carefully, and nodded with a smile.

Shen Chen was always so plain and steady, or rather generous and decent, without the crampedness and shyness that women often had at that time.

After everyone sat down again, Instructor Yang asked curiously: "What Captain Zhao said just now is that there are more than a dozen devils, all of whom were killed by Comrade Damei?" ”

Shen Chen hurriedly explained: "Captain Zhao is talking about knockdown, that is, being shot and falling to the ground. Well, those who are breathing or not dying will almost be replenished with a few bayonets. ”

That's the way it is in battle, especially in white-knuckle combat, sometimes several bayonets stab an enemy at the same time, and you can say that your knife is the deadliest?

When Shen Chen said this, he was not modest, but closer to the actual situation.

Company Commander Jiang bowed his head lightly and said, "That's also remarkable, defeating a dozen devils, to say the least, saved the critical situation." The situation at that time, as the third platoon commander told me, was very intense and critical. The comrades of the guerrillas fought tenaciously in order to achieve this complete and complete victory. ”

"Thanks to the timely reinforcement of the main forces, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable."

Lao Zhou: This is not modest, but seeking truth from facts. Then he told the guerrillas that they were going to celebrate the victory with Chiang Lian.

"Welcome!" Instructor Yang immediately agreed, and said with a smile: "I'm still worried that there are no amusement shows, and the condolence activities seem monotonous and boring!" ”

Company Commander Jiang also said with a smile: "Just beating gongs and drums, and then the speeches of the responsible persons of the army and localities, the atmosphere is really not warm enough. ”

Zhao Tie hesitated for a moment, and was a little afraid to pack the ticket, so he left room and said: "The guerrillas are not like the troops, and they really haven't learned any songs. As for other programs, I'm afraid I can't do it. ”

"Modest, isn't it." Company Commander Jiang said with a smile: "Isn't the Spring Festival very good, a few female comrades of the guerrillas, but they are versatile and very popular!" ”

Saying that, Company Commander Jiang looked at Shen Chen and said, "This time there is Comrade Damei, the show will be more exciting!" ”

Shen Chen hurriedly waved his hand and said, "I don't know anything except shooting devils." After saying that, he stood up and said, "I will not disturb you when you discuss business." ”

Zhao Tie opened his mouth, wanting to stop Shen Chen, but in the end he didn't speak.

"Don't go far." Instructor Yang stretched out his hand and shouted, "I asked people to arrange a meal, and it will be fine in a while." ”

Shen Chen agreed and walked out.

found Yu Baogen outside, Shen Chen sat in the carriage and chatted casually with him.

"Captain, someone has instructed us!" Yu Baogen suddenly pursed his mouth and reminded Shen Chen to wake up.

Shen Chen turned his head to look, it was the little orderly next to Company Commander Jiang, who was talking to an Eighth Route Army with a bandage on his head, and his eyes were still looking this way from time to time.

It is estimated that he is unwilling, but the gun is already coming back, and Shen Chen doesn't care what this little soldier thinks or says.

But Shen Chen didn't want to pay attention to it, but someone came to the door.

The Eighth Route Army was the commander of the third platoon, who was wounded in the battle, but captured a good gun. After handing it in, he was left behind by the company commander, and he loved it very much, and he was naturally happy.

But as soon as the small orderly said that the guerrillas had come to ask for a gun, and the company commander had already returned the gun, the third platoon commander was not happy.

Well, the gun is yours. But we rushed to reinforcements and paid so many casualties, did we save your guerrillas? At least you've lost a lot of money, right?

It's good now, I don't want to thank and gratitude, and I run to ask for a gun. Although the main force has to take care of the local troops, and the one who loses the gun is still a woman, isn't it a bit impersonal to do this?

The more the third platoon leader pondered, the more uncomfortable he became, but he also knew that if he rashly went up to ask for it, it would not be good for him to quarrel. When the company commander and instructor found out, they would definitely have to give him a punishment, or at least educate and reprimand him.

After scratching his ears and cheeks and thinking for a while, the third platoon leader had an idea and walked over.

Shen Chen tilted his head to look at this Eighth Route Army, like a cadre, carrying a box cannon, but he didn't know what he was going to do here.

"Hello, it's Comrade Sun Damei of the guerrillas, right?" The three platoon leaders squeezed out a smile and greeted each other.

Shen Chen nodded and said, "Hello." Excuse me, are you-"

"I am the platoon commander of the third platoon, my name is Liu Biao." The third platoon commander smiled and said, "I have long heard the comrades of the guerrillas talk about you, accurate marksmanship, and good ability to wear Yang in a hundred steps!" ”

Shen Chen smiled and said, "It's not that suspenseful, it's just a little more accurate than others." ”
