Chapter 2 The Battle of Songhu Luodian 2

Regiment headquarters

"Report!"

"Come in. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 ļ½‰ļ½Žļ½†ļ½ā€

"The regimental seat, the division headquarters called.

"Read."

"The telegram ordered the 11th Division, the 33rd Brigade, and my 66th Regiment to recover Luodian before 12 o'clock today, otherwise military law will be engaged."

"Gone?"

"It's gone!"

"Got it. Let's go down. ā€

"Yes."

A slightly young Kuomintang officer walked up to the map and stared carefully at a point in the middle of the map.

"Tuanza, how do you fight?"

"How to fight, hit hard, give little Japan a little color to see, did the 106th regiment grow up eating Kang? Can't hold it for half a day? We need to clean up the mess. ā€

"Tuanzao, this can't be all blamed on the 106th regiment, after all, their equipment is too backward, and under the bombardment of Japanese aircraft and artillery, it is good to be able to hold it for half a day."

"Okay, don't talk about it, summon the officers above the company level to come over for a meeting, and strive to take Luodian before ten o'clock."

"Yes."

A company of positions, seven fifty.

Company commander Jin Li stood on the ammunition box: "The regimental seat ordered us, take Luodian before ten o'clock today, I Jin Li will not say some big words, empty words, I just want to tell you, behind us is Shanghai, behind us are the common people, since we wear this military uniform, we have to provoke this responsibility for me, it is the responsibility of our soldiers to protect the family and defend the country, I will take the lead in the charge later, I am dead on the top of the deputy company commander, the deputy company commander is dead on the platoon commander, the platoon commander is dead on the squad leader, even the whole company is dead, and I have to complete the task, have you heard?"

"I heard you!" A neat roar came from the second company's position.

"Okay, very good, now start distributing ammunition, hit me hard, let the little devils know that we Chinese are not easy to bully, and when the artillery fire stops, we will rush with me."

Seven fifty-five. Inside the trenches.

The Japanese position about a kilometer away in front should be in flames at this time, the 11th Division is Lao Chiang's descendant troops, so the ammunition of the troops is very sufficient, and the artillery battalion directly under the division is constantly pouring ammunition on the Japanese defenders in Luodian, leading the charge of the 66th Regiment.

Seven fifty-nine a.m.

The originally dense artillery sound began to slowly weaken, and two Japanese reconnaissance planes appeared in the sky again, presumably looking for artillery positions.

In the trench, Zhao Tiezhu held the rifle in his hand tightly, and kept telling himself in his heart, don't be afraid, don't be afraid, don't be afraid.

Shun kept touching his head on the side, and kept following him to say something.

Eight

With the company commander shouting: "Rush with me!" The soldiers of the first company jumped out of the trenches where they were hiding, armed with rifles, and rushed towards the Japanese positions with no indomitable courage.

"Zhao Tiezhu, what are you going to do? Are you going to be a deserter? Believe it or not, Lao Tzu has killed you now. ā€

Zhao Tiezhu squatted in the trench and trembled, and the constant sound of explosions and gunfire destroyed his nerves.

The platoon commander's words didn't have any effect, and the second platoon commander directly slapped Zhao Tiezhu in the face, making Zhao Tiezhu, who was already frightened, come back to his senses.

"Don't be fucking in a daze, rush with me, or I'll kill you."

"Oh, it's the platoon commander."

Zhao Tiezhu, who was awakened, picked up his rifle in a panic, jumped out of the trench with trembling feet, and rushed out to the Japanese position in front.

Corpses, stray bullets, and the sound of explosions ringing in the ears mingled, with the occasional scream.

The iron pillar fell at the back of the whole company, and he ran forward with his head buried, and he had only one thought in his heart, which was to rush, rush forward.

He seemed to remember a strange sound in his ears, someone was calling him, the voice was so familiar, but he didn't know where it came from, it seemed to be this voice in all directions.

Suddenly, Tie Zhu felt that he was being pulled by someone, and then the whole person fell to the side, and Shun was shouting something to him loudly.

"You want to die, rush so fast."

Finally heard clearly, Brother Shunyo thought he was running too fast, wasn't he the last to jump out of the trench?

Zhao Tiezhu looked around a little blankly, and unconsciously, he had rushed from the rear of the company to the front.

Not far away, Xiao Si was struggling on the ground, wailing in pain, and Tie Zhu wanted to save him, but just as he was about to get up, he was crushed to the ground by Shunyo.

"You don't want to live anymore? He was hopeless, the bullet hit him in the chest and he was bleeding too much. ā€

As if he hadn't heard, Tie Zhu wanted to climb out and help Si'er pull him to his side.

Shunyo slapped Tie Zhu directly in the face, Tie Zhu only felt his ears buzzing, and the whole person quieted down, and tears flowed out of his eyes uncontrollably.

"What are you crying about, follow me, don't get lost."

Smoothly got up from the ground, and the cat rushed forward.

After Tie Zhu saw Brother Shunyo leaving, he immediately panicked, and even climbed up with a rolling belt, and wiped his face with mud hands by the way.

It was still more than 700 meters away from the Japanese position, which was not within the effective range of the Japanese army's 38 big cover, but stray bullets kept passing through both sides from time to time, occasionally bringing some casualties to the charging soldiers, such as Si'er.

When Tie Zhu ran past Si'er's body, he secretly glanced at it, his eyes were wide open, his mouth was also open, his hands were covering his chest that had been shot, although his eyes were no longer bright, but Tie Zhu could still feel that he seemed to say: "Why don't you save me, why don't you save me."

The frightened Tiezhu ran forward in a panic, he wanted to find Brother Shunyo, he was afraid, he wanted to go home, he thought about his mother who he had never met.

While running, tears kept staying, and death was really coming, just around the corner.

There was a sharp sound of breaking the air in the air, and a long tail note was remembered from the Japanese position.

"Mortar." The company commander shouted from nowhere.

Hearing the sound of the cannon, the iron pillar was even more frightened, he didn't know what to do, and stood on the battlefield at a loss, motionless and his legs kept trembling.

A cannonball landed not far from him, and a loud explosion blew the iron pillar to the ground with dirt and some air waves.

"Iron Pillar!" An exclamation was heard not far away, and the smooth figure crawled out of a crater and ran to the bottom of the iron pillar.

Shun Yu picked up the dirt scattered on Tie Zhu's face with both hands, and Tie Zhu, who was lying on the ground, grinned: "Brother Shun Yu, you are here, where did you go, I'm afraid."

As soon as he finished speaking, the remnants of dirt slipped down his mouth and into Iron Pillar's mouth.

"Ahem, ahem."

"Are you alright, Iron Pillar, it scared me to death. Let you follow me, what are you running around. ā€

Shun Yu pulled the iron pillar up to the ground, helped him pick up the gun and handed it over, and then pulled him to lie down in the crater that had just been shelled.

Recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of bugles.

The iron pillar, which was frightened by the sound of cannons, followed Shunyo and finally regained a little courage.

At this time, a hurried trumpet sounded from the rear of the position, and the time for the charge had arrived.
