Huang Wenlie did not agree to my request, he felt that my overstepping advice was not only useless, but also might be punished for it, and the gains outweighed the losses, which was completely unnecessary.

"We are soldiers, and it is our duty to obey orders, even if we shed blood and sacrifice, it is our duty. Besides, how can you convince Junza to believe you? Could it be that the intelligence of the entire staff is not as good as that of a battalion commander of yours? After Huang Wenlie said this, he left a stunned me standing in place, and he turned around and took the adjutant to the front to continue inspecting the position.

The sound of gunfire on the West Bank still resounded through the valley, and the smoke of gunfire, the flames of war, the blood, everything was played out in chaos before our eyes, and the same scene was played on a loop like a movie.

An inch of mountains and rivers and an inch of blood, such a cruel war truly interprets the true meaning of this sentence. By the time we take the land of the West Bank, I am afraid that every inch of the land will be stained with the blood of our martyrs.

"Why did the shelling stop!" I found several anti-aircraft guns in the first battalion and suddenly stopped bombing. In my own ability, the only thing that can help my comrades on the other side of the strait now is to constantly intrude and bomb the connection between the Japanese army's first defense position and the main peak position.

A second lieutenant platoon commander in charge of artillery hurriedly ran over and said, "Report to the battalion commander, we don't have much shells left, and if we continue to fight, I'm afraid we will run out." ”

I snapped, "Then keep fighting!" The shells are gone, I'll go to the regiment headquarters to ask for them! Obey the order and bomb the calibrated target! ”

"Yes!" The second lieutenant platoon commander turned and ran back.

When I said the big words, I actually didn't have any bottom in my heart, and the new 200 regiment was not the main force in this river-crossing operation. Therefore, the distribution of guns and ammunition is mainly based on the main regiment, and the turn of the new 200 regiment is only the ration of conventional ammunition, and there is nothing left of heavy weapons.

Not to mention the artillery shells, which are the most important offensive weapons, and it is impossible to supply us too much in the already scarce situation. So I didn't plan to go to Huang Wenlie to ask for cannonballs at all, I knew that it would be in vain to go, and he didn't know who to ask for.

I was so anxious that I was in the camp headquarters, and finally gritted my teeth and shouted: "Adjutant Liu, follow me to the military headquarters!" ”

Adjutant Liu said in surprise: "Battalion commander, what are you doing at the military headquarters?" At such a critical time, we must be on call at any time, and it is a serious crime to leave our posts without permission and delay military aircraft. ”

I put on my steel helmet and said, "I'm going to the military headquarters to ask for artillery shells, this is an important military plane!" As soon as we interrupt the shelling, the casualties of our troops at the front line will be even more serious! ”

Adjutant Liu said, "What about the position?" ”

I shouted out the door, "Herald." ”

The herald pushed the door open and walked in, saying, "Here! ”

As I walked out, I said, "Pass my order, order all companies to hold their positions and carry out the orders of the regimental headquarters." If the regimental seat asks about me, they will say that I went to the military headquarters to ask for ammunition! ”

Adjutant Liu staggered behind me and said, "Battalion commander, are you thinking about it...... Isn't this child's play? Now is the time of the big war, if you go to ask for cannonballs like this, you must not let Junzuo explode, and it will be ...... if you don't get it."

The herald chased him out and shouted: "Battalion commander, battalion commander, regimental headquarters phone!" ”

I had no choice but to turn back again, walk into the battalion headquarters, grab the phone, and say, "Hey, I'm An Sihu." ”

On the other end of the phone was the voice of the second battalion commander Zhang Da, and he said anxiously: "Battalion Commander An, Commander Huang is on your position, right?" Let the group seat return to the regiment headquarters immediately! ”

I said, "What's wrong?" What's so urgent? ”

Zhang Da said: "The front line on the west bank suffered heavy casualties, and the military headquarters ordered our new 200 regiment as a supplementary force to immediately cross the river for reinforcements!" ”

I said, "Okay, I'll tell the group to go back quickly." ”

I put down the phone and said to the herald: "Go and inform the regimental headquarters, and say that the military headquarters has asked us to cross the river for reinforcements, and let him rush back to the regiment immediately." ”

"Yes!" The herald ran out and went out with a few people to find Huang Wenlie.

Adjutant Liu took off his steel helmet and said, "Okay, battalion commander, you don't have to ask for any more shells, we are about to cross the river to fight, you are the commander, you can't go anywhere." ”

I thought about it for a moment and said, "No! Come with me, I still have to go to the military headquarters. It's because I want to cross the river for reinforcements that I should go even more! ”

We rode in a transport company truck and drove to the army headquarters in a bumpy mountain road, because the mountain road was slippery and muddy, and the truck almost turned into a ravine several times.

Rumble! A howitzer exploded more than a dozen meters to our side, and the debris hit the car door with a loud bang.

This is the Japanese army in a routine attack on the rear of the east coast, trying to bomb the supply lines of our army, it is estimated that the coordinates given by the Japanese reconnaissance planes are not too accurate, and many shells have deviated from the target and exploded on non-military targets.

The truck we were in happened to be driving in the area of the Japanese shelling, so the truck had to make a desperate way through the mud and shells. After more than ten minutes, a shell exploded a few meters away from the truck, and the shrapnel broke through the truck's fuel tank, which immediately burst into flames.

The driver hurriedly stepped on the brakes, but he didn't even step on them a few times, probably because the explosion broke the brake system, and the driver shouted: "Battalion commander, jump out of the car, the car is going to explode!" ”

After the driver shouted this, he opened the car door and jumped down first, the mountain road next to him was as sharp as a knife, and the speed of the car was fast, the driver was thrown and his face was covered with blood, lying on the ground and moaning, and he didn't know how he was injured.

Adjutant Liu opened the car door in a panic and said, "Battalion commander, let's jump too, it's too late to jump, the car is about to explode!" ”

I quickly sat down in the driver's seat and shouted, "Calm down, who said that a car will explode as soon as it catches fire?" This brother jumps down at speed, and if he doesn't die, he has half a life left! ”

Adjutant Liu looked back at the flames behind the car that were getting higher and higher, and said, "Then, what should I do?" ”

I turned the steering wheel to the right and caused the right side of the car to crash into the small trees on the side of the road, slowing down the car.

Click! Click! Click! As the car moved, it kept breaking the tree. At this time, the smoke has entered the cab, and if you don't jump out of the car, you will choke to death.

I shouted at Adjutant Liu and said, "It's okay, jump!" ”

Adjutant Liu and I jumped out of the car one after another, the car had slowed down under the impact of the small tree, and although we fell into the mud, we were not seriously injured, only some minor abrasions.

Deputy Liu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and said, "It's really a blessing......"

I looked back and saw that the black smoke around the car was getting thicker, and I shouted, "What a blessing, run, the car is going to explode!" ”

I ran forward on the muddy mountain road first, didn't run a few steps, fell a little, got up and continued to run, and after a while, Zhou became a mud monkey up and down.

I looked back and saw that Adjutant Liu was not much stronger than me, and he caught up with me and panted and said, "Battalion, battalion commander, didn't you say you can't explode?" So what are we going to run? ”

I sat on the mud and gasped for breath and said, "In case ...... blow up"

Rumble! There was a loud bang from the car in the distance, and the whole car exploded and was instantly engulfed in flames.
