readx; The old man quickly said, "Not really! Everybody's talking about flying high. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info No! It's Master Gao! ”

Suozhu smiled: "It's okay, you ordinary people call our division commander Gao Fei in person, and he is also happy, I don't believe you can give it a try in the future." Our division commander said that when the common people know him as soon as they meet, they dare to call him, and that is the spirit of Mingzhuo. In foreign countries, the person who becomes the president can give his name to other people's children as a souvenir. ”

As he spoke, he finished the bowl of rice. The young man, without his consent, took the bowl and went to serve him the meal. Suozhu smiled: "I don't dare to do this, we are soldiers, everything is done by ourselves." ”

The young man paid no attention to it, and filled him with a bowl full of vegetables, and put many dishes on the bowl, and he took the bowl and said, "Captain, eat more!" When you are full, you have the strength to fight. Come on! Come on! ”

In this way, it aroused the interest of the rest of the common people, who rushed to have dinner with the soldiers, and shouted cheers! Even the two sergeants put down their guns and joined the rice balls, so everyone's eyes were injected into the soldiers' rice bowls. As long as the rice bowl is empty, people will come over and take the bowl with both hands. Some Suo surnames came to strike first, and only waited for the meal to reach ninety percent, and then took the bowl away. Sometimes two hands were stretched out, causing the soldiers to laugh.

Everyone was laughing and laughing, two groups of soldiers had eaten, but the gunfire in front of them was extremely urgent. Looking into the distance, there were often bursts of white smoke rushing out of the air, and the enemy's artillery positions were much closer. The lock pillar said to the people: "Everyone, please go back, this place is probably about to come into contact." ”

The officer who was loyal to save [***] looked at the soldiers on the battlefield, and then puffed up his chest and said, "I see that you soldiers are not many, and I am willing to join the battle." ”

Suozhu nodded and said: "Thank you for your kindness, it's just that you fathers and elders don't know how to fight, and they are not only useless on the battlefield, but also increase our many concerns." It's that the two of them each have a gun, which is too old and inconvenient to fight. Or ask the two of you to take the people back to the small stone bridge. If we were to fight here in the evening, we would be grateful if you would have brought us something to eat and drink. ”

The old man raised a fist, slammed it in the air, made a resolute look, and said, "We must come!" Unless the bomb is killed, one is not short. ”

Suozhu said with a smile: "Old uncle, you have this courage, you must not be afraid of bombing, let's go, see you in the evening." ”

As he spoke, he raised his hand and saluted. The common people were empty-handed, listening to the gunfire in front, as if they were under the low embankment in front, everyone did not dare to delay, respectively, carrying the basket bucket, and still followed the two loyal rescuers [***].

The lock pillar was prescient, and less than six or seven minutes after the people left, a liaison soldier turned over from the low embankment in front. Because he was just one person, everyone was paying attention, but they weren't nervous. When he approached two or three hundred meters, the people who were hiding under the embankment stuck out their heads and asked which one? The soldier agreed, and said loudly, "I'm a private of the 4th Company." ”

When the lock post saw that there was no mistake behind the embankment, he called him over. He came over and said, "Our 4th Company has gone to the bottom of the low embankment in front, let me come and have a look, and they will arrive later." As he spoke, he turned around and pointed, "Here they are." ”

When everyone saw it, there were already 20 people going up and down, climbing over the low embankment in front of them, and walking to the paddy field road. They also saw that the paddy field plain here was bare, uncovered, and quickly walked over. The lock pillar was very alert and crouched behind the embankment, raised his head and asked, "Where is the company commander Lou?" ”

A person at the back of the line raised his hand and replied as he walked: "Yingzao, I, Lou Ziping." ”

The lock pillar hurriedly shouted: "Come up to this side of the embankment, there is help here, hurry!" ”

Lou Zipingdu, led a small group of soldiers, climbed over the embankment. The planes were heard and immediately ordered to disperse, and the brothers took cover behind the embankment, and the two planes flew to the top of the embankment, circling two or three times back and forth. They saw no sign of the place, and slowly flew out of the sky.

Company Commander Lou Ziping walked to the lock pillar and reported: "There are seven or eight hundred enemies in front, and their mountain artillery is also moving in the direction of the 15th Regiment. Along the Yangong Temple, the enemy is probably a pinned down force. ”

Suozhu thought for a moment and said: "If they are really reinforcements, in front of us, they are exposing their flanks, looking for an opportunity to kill him." You have worked hard, the company commander can go to the small stone bridge to rest. We've had a full meal, and we've rested for so long, so let's do it here. ”

Company Commander Lou said with a smile: "Battalion commander, although we have been fighting for a day and a night, the brothers' will to fight is still very strong, if we are ready to fight the enemy here, we are willing to participate in this battle." ”

The Pillar saw that his face was red, and he was already out of breath, and he was not tired, and the brethren of the 4th Company, sitting on the dry turf of the embankment, still had their guns in their hands, and their waists were straight. He nodded.

After discussing with the commander of the company, the lock pillar and the company commander of the building considered the topography here, and felt that the small river in front of him came from north to south, and when he arrived here, he just turned around and went west slightly. There is a large section of the embankment, which sits on the north and faces south. Immediately on the south corner of the embankment, they rushed to dig a machine-gun bunker.

There were two crooked old willow trees in front of the bunker, which was quite sheltered. There are two pedestrian paths controlled by this embankment, one is the main road that leads to the small stone bridge at the foot of the embankment, and the other is the small road that leads to the intersection of Tianjing Port Tongluo Road in a vertical line. So he ordered the commander of the building company to take the 7th company to guard the angle of the turn of the embankment, and the 4th company was still hiding behind the embankment, facing east to monitor. In this way, in less than thirty minutes, everything stopped, and the sound of the enemy artillery coming along the financial store had turned to the south, and it was indeed rushing to the Yangong Temple, and seeing the white smoke from the cannon was rising in that direction.

But the lock post sent a herald, and on the low embankment to the east, the enemy had been spotted and was ready to make contact. The company commander climbed up, crouched under a felled willow tree, and looked forward, which could be seen from the southeast, and sure enough, on the plain above, there were already forty or fifty enemies, and they had climbed over the low embankment.

The enemy saw that there was a long embankment in front of him and crossed the road, and he also had a considerable feeling, so he dispersed the group, and then went down the path, formed a longitudinal line in the rice fields, and advanced towards the embankment.

Behind the line, two mortars were fired at the foot of the low embankment, covering the enemy's advance. This machine-gun bunker, at a slight point on the embankment, was not discovered by the enemy, and the brothers hid under the embankment, and outside the firing angle, everyone was very calm.

The lock post and the squad leader were lying near the machine-gun bunker, and they opened their eyes to the scattered group of enemies on the other side of the rice field, and they did not move. The enemy's mortars fired white smoke in front of them, and they rang out one or two dozen times. Seeing this, there was no reaction at all, so he stopped firing guns.

The enemy infantry in the paddy fields were like a group of wolves looking for food, and the figures moved on the fields, reaching a distance of 300 meters. That piece of terrain, just protruding, was a good opportunity to shoot. The shooters of the machine guns lay in their bunkers, all nervous. The two eyeballs, almost protruding from their sockets, held the machine gun, and waited for the order.

At this time, the deputy squad leader made a gesture.

"Suddenly! Suddenly! Suddenly! "A burst of bullets flew out of the muzzle of the gun, and seven or eight of the enemy in front of him had fallen in the field. The rest who did not fall quickly fell down. How will this machine gun let go?

Turning the muzzle slightly, there was another burst of strafing. There, the enemy's mortars, concentrated their fire, spewing smoke from four or five places, and bombarded the side of the machine-gun bunkers. It turned out that after the arrival of the 4th Company, two more machine-gun bunkers had been temporarily dug at a considerable distance, and two or three minutes before the mortar bombardment had been hastily moved to a machine-gun bunker in the north. Fortunately, this long embankment was much higher than the number of people, and the troops moved behind the embankment, and the enemy could not shoot to stop it.

Once the machine guns were placed, the enemy, who was exposed under the embankment, quickly moved to the rear embankment, and in the deflection angle, it could be seen that the enemy was densely packed, and he was lying down under the cover of that high ground. This is another good opportunity to shoot, Burst! Suddenly! Suddenly! There was a loud bang, and it hit several of them again.

In this way, the enemy retreated to a lower ground, and did not move anything but to bombard him with mortars. After about an hour, the company commander Lou sent two heralds to report to the lock post, and he climbed on the top of a big willow tree to visit, and found that there was a group of enemies, on the southern road, to reinforce here.

The stabs immediately ran to the bend in the embankment. The company commander of Lou stood and slipped down the tree to greet him: "The enemy in this area, I'm afraid there are a lot of follow-up troops, we should change our tactics and give him a dismount, and then we can withstand it." ”

Suozhu frowned: "How do you give him a dismount?" ”

Company Commander Lou didn't have time to think: "I advocate not letting the enemy know about our machine gun position first, just let him move forward." Below the embankment, the fields are flat, there are no lowlands on the east side, and there are several ponds behind the road. When they come, it's not easy to exercise. At that time, there was a machine-gun fire, and then a charge. ”

The pillar stooped down two steps, hid under the big willow tree, and looked in front of him. Sure enough, outside the sidewalk parallel to the embankment, only half of the soil in the paddy fields was dry and wet, and all the ridges could not obscure the view from here. A mile or two away, there were two or three large ponds, like a small lake, and a paved stone path was carried around those laps of water.

Suozhu turned around and said, "Company Commander Lou, your decision is good, but you have been fighting until now."

The company commander Lou didn't wait for him to finish, and said, "Battalion commander, there is no problem, we brothers don't know how to be tired at all." ”

Suozhu saw that his face was red, and his will to fight was reflected in his heart, so he didn't think about it anymore. When the mortar over there stopped for a phase, it came back closely, and it came closely, and it was clicking, and whew! White fire rang out in the air one after another. The lock post informed the deputy squad leader of the acting company commander over there that he should deal with it calmly and not pay attention to him if he did not see the enemy's infantry moving.

At the same time, two enemy planes flew from the southeast corner along the inland river behind the embankment, circling incessantly, and the clucking machine guns rang out under the sound of rolling motors.

Because there were still sparse tall willow trees on the embankment on the west bank, it was afraid of running into the trees, and it could not fly as low as it normally would. Although it strafed seventy or eighty times, because it was surrounded by embankments on two sides and a river beach in the middle, it did not lose the slightest loss to the troops.
