Chapter 31: The Baptism of the Recruits

"Boom...... Rumble...... Rumble! "The shells fell into the position of the Japanese army, and suddenly there was a violent explosion, and for a while, the flames were everywhere, the smoke of gunpowder was billowing out, and the entire position of the Japanese army had become a sea of fire.

The shelling continued, in the front-line trenches of a regiment.

Liu Jianguo, with a steel helmet and a ghost-headed knife in his hand, led his guard platoon, and strode along the traffic trench to the front-line trench.

At this time, their own artillery was still firing, and shells kept passing over their heads with a piercing whistling sound.

"The group has arrived!" One of the attendant adjutants shouted at the top of his voice.

For a while, a regiment of officers and soldiers in the trenches got up one after another, and their eyes invariably threw themselves at Liu Jianguo and others, which naturally included the little pork guy Niu Erzhu.

Under the watchful eyes of a group of officers and soldiers, Liu Jianguo came to the middle of the trench.

He looked around at his subordinates with eyes like knives, and suddenly roared coldly: "All of them!" ”

All the veterans stood up one after another, clenching the steel guns in their hands, and the recruits hurriedly followed suit.

"Get on the bayonet!" Liu Jianguo's eyes seemed to have a fire burning, and he roared again with awe-inspiring fighting intent.

"Whew!" The well-trained veterans carried out the military order at the first time, drew sharp bayonets, and then clicked on the muzzle.

With the veterans taking the lead, the recruits who were a little dazed followed suit and loaded their bayonets with muzzles, but compared with the well-trained veterans, their movements were less aggressive and free.

At this time, the artillery battalion in the city had completed the rapid fire of ten rounds, and the position of the army was already in a sea of fire, wailing everywhere.

"Brothers, the time has come to show the bravery of our Northeast Army, but whoever is a gentleman, copy the guy for Lao Tzu, press it, and fuck the little devil!" After Liu Jianguo finished speaking, he swung the big knife in his hand forward suddenly, and shouted: "Rush!" With a few words, he jumped out of the trench and took the lead.

"Ah, kill!" The first to react were the well-trained veterans, who had already felt the burning battle intent in Liu Jianguo's eyes, and it could be said that they had been waiting for a long time, when Liu Jianguo waved his big knife, his voice did not fall.

They turned and jumped out of the trenches, roaring in response: "Rush, kill!" Kill! ”

Their bravery led the recruits who were a little slower to react, watching their commanders and comrades jump out of the trench one by one and rush towards the direction of the army position with their rifles, and a group of recruits, including Niu Erzhu, were also deeply affected, and jumped out of the trenches one after another, roaring and rushing forward.

From a bird's-eye view of the battlefield from the top of Shenyang City, it can be found that when Liu Jianguo led a regiment to attack the Yue army on all fronts, the scene was extremely spectacular.

"Kill!" More than 2,000 officers and men, under the leadership of Liu Jianguo, rushed towards the direction of the army's position like the tide of a broken embankment.

On the top of the army's position, Seishiro Itagaki struggled to climb out of the guards, who was knocked down by the guards and hid in a bunker.

Because the artillery bombardment of the Northeast Army came too suddenly, and a shell exploded not far from Itagaki Seishiro, he did not have time to evacuate in time.

If it weren't for the desperate rescue of the guards, Seishiro Itagaki would probably have died in battle, and his soul would have gone back to Toei to see his majesty the emperor who saw them.

Pushing the guard's corpse away, Seishiro Itagaki looked up and saw the light of fire, gunsmoke and the wails of his own wounded officers and soldiers.

"Sir, it's no good, the people of China are attacking us." A Nakasa was overjoyed to see that Seishiro Itagaki was still alive, and reported with an anxious face.

"Baga, organize the troops, resist me, resist!" For the rest of his life after the catastrophe, Seishiro Itagaki was in shock, and before meeting, this Nakazo looked flustered and couldn't help but be furious.

"Hay!" The devil Nakasa suddenly bowed his head, drew his saber and turned around to organize the troops.

Itagaki Seishiro staggered to the rear, as an ambitious emperor, he knew that he had to put himself in a safe place before making plans for the moment, commanding the troops to resist him certainly thought, but he was even more afraid of losing his surname because of this, because the experience just now made him feel the threat of death for the rest of his life.

"Kill!" Liu Jianguo bravely took the lead in the charge, holding high the ghost-headed broadsword, and was the first to brave the rain of bullets and rushed into the position of the army.

A fierce white-knuckle battle began.

Liu Jianguo and his guard platoon were all experienced soldiers, and among the officers and soldiers of the regiment, they were the most courageous.

The veterans who followed Liu Jianguo and the guard platoon did not fall behind, and they all fought with their lives, slashing to the death.

The last to rush up were the recruits, who basically advanced extremely smoothly after the veterans at first, and all they encountered were the corpses of fallen devils.

But as the fierce battle progressed, the recruits finally got in touch with the devil soldiers.

After Niu Erzhu shot and killed a ghost soldier who was stabbed by the squad leader, before he could pull the bolt again, a ghost soldier stabbed at him with a gun.

At this time, the squad leader was fighting against a military commander, and he had no time to help him, seeing the bright bayonet stabbing at him, Niu Erzhu couldn't care about pushing the bullet into the chamber anymore, and hurriedly waved his gun to block.

"Bang!" Niu Erzhu's rifle collided with the devil soldier's bayonet with a sweeping move, Rao is Niu Erzhu's body fat thought he had brute strength, but under this touch, he still felt his hands tingle, and the tiger's mouth seemed to be cracked.

The blow was not successful, the devil soldier was obviously experienced, and quickly drew his gun and retreated, not giving Niu Erzhu a chance to take advantage of the situation to counterattack, in fact, if he didn't do this, Niu Erzhu might not be able to seize the opportunity to counterattack.

Under the confrontation, Niu Erzhu saw clearly the appearance of this person, he was not tall, but his body looked quite strong and heavy, and the 38 rifle and bayonet in his hand were almost as long as his height, which looked very funny.

However, Niu Erzhu couldn't laugh at all at the moment, the white blade stabbed, the real knife and the real gun on the battlefield, he was the first time, although he shot and killed people in the defensive battle just now, but the white knife into the red knife out of the tragic hand-to-hand combat, he has not experienced it, and it is inevitable that he will be nervous and afraid in his heart.

Especially Niu Erzhu saw the cold killing intent in the eyes of this soldier, which he had never encountered and possessed.

Before the battle, he was cowardly, and he lost the upper hand in momentum.

The devil soldier obviously noticed this, and immediately roared, and the spear stabbed towards Niu Erzhu again.

Cowardly in his heart, Niu Erzhu could only retreat in a panic while swinging his gun to block.

At this time, the squad leader, who was fighting with the enemy, saw Niu Erzhu's danger out of the corner of his eye, and he was in a hurry, kicked back a military commander who was fighting with him, turned around and ran towards Niu Erzhu.

"Erzhu, be careful!" Seeing that Niu Erzhu was about to be stabbed by the devil soldier's bayonet, the veteran squad leader shouted, and the rifle in his hand hurriedly waved over.

There was a muffled sound, and the devil soldier's bayonet was knocked open again, and before the devil soldier could react, the veteran squad leader quickly bullied forward, and the rifle in his hand stabbed him in the chest.

"Poof!" The bayonet on the muzzle of the gun instantly pierced into the chest of the devil soldier, and the whole root did not penetrate the back, and the devil soldier looked at him with an unwilling face, and blood gushed out from the corner of his mouth.

However, before the veteran squad leader could draw his bayonet, an angry shout "Baga" suddenly came from behind him, and then a sharp voice of breaking flesh sounded: "Poof." ”

A bayonet went straight through his chest from his back, and the veteran squad leader looked down at the blood-stained tip of the bayonet with a painful face, and raised his head to say something to Niu Erzhu, who was already stunned.

But as soon as he opened his mouth, blood gushed out, and in the end he couldn't speak.

Niu Erzhu stood on the spot, his mind blank and looking at everything that happened in front of him, the squad leader actually died, he died to save himself, he died.

Such voices sounded in my head one after another.

"Recruits are afraid of artillery, veterans are afraid of good."

"Lao Tzu will be a soldier with the same surname as you, don't be afraid."

The squad leader's words to himself not long ago echoed in his ears like a magic voice, Niu Erzhu's eyes moistened, and tears couldn't stop staying.

"Go and be a soldier, don't embarrass Lao Tzu." What my father said to himself before joining the army also came out at this time.

"I want revenge! Avenge the squad leader! A roar of hatred roared in his heart, and Niu Erzhu's eyes began to turn red.

At this time, the commander of the army who had attacked the squad leader pulled out his bayonet, and the veteran squad leader fell down with the devil soldier.

The commander of the army regarded Niu Erzhu as the next target, and rushed towards Niu Erzhu with an angry shout.

"Little devil, your grandma!" Niu Erzhu roared like a crazy bull, and greeted him with his rifle.

……………………………………………………

In this white-knuckle battle, a regiment won, and with their full of blood, they defeated the Yue army that had the advantage of strength in the panic, killing more than 1,000 Yue troops, and the rest of the Yue army fled in a hurry.

Of course, a regiment also paid the price of more than 500 casualties, among them there are veterans, but more recruits, war is like this, it has its iron laws, in such a tragic fierce battle, both sides will have inevitable casualties, the key is who wins the final victory.

One regiment won, and although they paid the price of nearly a quarter of the casualties, there were more recruits among them who saw blood, completing the first qualitative change from peasants to qualified soldiers.

In this battle, they won, and it was won by the white-edged stabbing that they were most proud of, and they were proud enough, which had an indescribable impact on their future growth.

Victory in the first battle is extremely important for an army, and after this battle, they will have a belief in their hearts that we are the real elite and that we are invincible.

At this time, the sun had begun to set, and as the sun set, Niu Erzhu knelt in front of the corpse of the veteran squad leader, and inserted a 38 cover upside down next to the corpse of the veteran squad leader, and was silent for a long time.

Not far from him, the commander of the army had been killed for a long time, and it was Niu Erzhu who stabbed him.

Niu Erzhu had no tears in his eyes at the moment, there was only indifference and hatred, and he didn't even know the name of the squad leader who had saved his life, and no one knew where he was.

At this moment, he was full of remorse, why didn't he ask the squad leader a few hours ago, he had a place to repay his kindness.

While remorseful, Niu Erzhu's hatred for Yue himself increased more and more.

After silently kowtowing three times to the corpse of the veteran squad leader, Niu Erzhu got up suddenly, pulled out the veteran squad leader's 38 big cover, and after glancing at his benefactor, he turned around and strode away.

It is an indispensable process for a recruit to become a qualified elite soldier, and many recruits have witnessed their superiors, comrades-in-arms, and brothers who get along with each other day and night in the process of growing up.

It is precisely because they have experienced life and death tests and baptism again and again that they have gradually grown up, and their minds can slowly change from the initial immaturity, cowardice, and kindness to cold-blooded, tenacious, and brave, and finally become a real soldier.

This is the case with Niu Erzhu, most of the recruits in the first regiment, and the millions of athletes who joined the army after the outbreak of the all-out war of resistance against Japanese aggression.

"Squad leader, don't worry, I will use the life you gave me to continue the unfinished mission of you and my brothers." Niu Erzhu had a heavy promise in his heart.
