The military uniforms of the Northeast Field Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army are the largest among all units, and the innermost part is naturally autumn clothes and trousers, and in the middle is a layer of sweaters and woolen leg pads and knee pads. On the outside is a thin camouflage snow medic, and on the outside is a camouflage cotton coat. There is a scarf around the neck, a woolen hood and a steel helmet on the head, and woolen gloves and cotton gloves on the hands. On the feet are thick socks, footcloths, and snow boots with rubber soles. If it weren't for such thick cold-proof clothing, these comrades, who didn't know what minus 30 degrees were before leaving the customs, would have been miserable by the severe cold.

One of the reasons why the Japanese army did not carry out large-scale operations in the winter was that the Japanese army believed that the severe cold could greatly weaken the combat effectiveness of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army.

After getting used to wearing these heavy cold clothes, the comrades could not remember to take them off during hand-to-hand combat. Every surviving comrade of the Sixth Regiment took part in the bayonet battle less than half an hour ago, and many commanders and fighters had various bayonet cuts on their cotton clothes. After taking off the cotton clothes, my body felt a lot lighter. Without thick cotton clothes as a certain degree of protection, the mood of the comrades will inevitably become even more tragic.

Located in the center of the battle line is the third battalion of the sixth regiment, and the current acting battalion commander Xu Donghai is the deputy commander of the second company. There were only seven or eight soldiers left in the fourth company, and the company commanders, instructors, and deputy company commanders of the first to third companies were all glorious. When the third battalion was fully established, there were nearly 500 people, and the total number of commanders and fighters at that time was less than 200.

Standing at the head of the formation, Xu Donghai, the acting battalion commander, took two deep breaths, and his lungs were stimulated by the cold air and felt a pain. As a comrade with a "relatively problematic" background in the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, Xu Donghai was a Shaolin Temple monk who was captured a few years ago. The People's Party fought local tyrants in Henan to divide the land, and the head of the Shaolin Temple, the largest landlord in Songshan, was naturally the brunt. As a meritorious person, the Shaolin Temple monks had to contribute a variety of martial arts skills of the Shaolin Temple, in the transformation, Xu Donghai accepted the revolutionary idea, recognized the fact that the Shaolin Temple monks used the land to exploit the people of Songshan. With the experience of a warrior monk, Xu Donghai is famous for his outstanding fighting skills in the army.

Xu Donghai picked up at least seven or eight Japanese officers and soldiers. In the face of the Japanese soldiers who swarmed like a tide, Xu Donghai's boiling feelings at this time were not fear, not panic. He was not unaware that he might not be able to survive the ensuing bayonet battle. In the battle, more than half of the comrades of the sixth regiment had already died. At this point, no one really thought they could be immortal. However, realizing this, Xu Donghai's chest was boiling with a strong urge to fight, and he even longed for death. It doesn't matter if it's the death of the enemy or his own death, as long as it's the death brought about by the battle, it's what Xu Donghai longs for!

Even if the Japanese army rushed in front of him less than ten meters, Xu Donghai did not wait for death to approach, he picked up his rifle and waved it, "Kill!" With this angry shout, Xu Donghai took the lead in rushing towards the Japanese army.

Every Japanese soldier on the opposite side still looked like they were still white-bearded and white-eyebrowed, and they were even menacing when they rushed straight over, but Xu Donghai felt a slight difference from Fang Cai as soon as he fought. There was no cotton clothes as a burden in this fight, Xu Donghai blocked the enemy's spurt more easily, and then took a step to the left, turned sideways slightly, and the bayonet in his hand cut the enemy's neck directly from the enemy's right side with great ease. Turned around and blocked the bayonet thrust of another Japanese soldier who rushed over. Xu Donghai smoothly repeated Fang Cai's movements, and the bayonet still easily cut off the blood vessels and trachea on the neck of the Japanese soldiers.

However, the Japanese army who rushed over in the third place had already been forced extremely close, and Xu Donghai's body couldn't twist for a while. However, the bayonet battle of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army was fought in groups of three, and one of the comrades-in-arms who followed from behind Xu Donghai had already blocked the Japanese army's stab with a rifle, and the bayonet of another comrade-in-arms pierced the Japanese soldier's chest directly from the front.

"Pierce from the left! Pierce from the left! Xu Donghai had already begun to roar.

The roar of this voice in the wind and snow and hand-to-hand combat was only heard by the comrades in the surrounding circle, and even if they heard it, many comrades did not understand what it meant. However, the right stab tactic in hand-to-hand combat is also specifically described by the troops. There were several groups of comrades who were reminded and quickly turned this reminder into practice.

It didn't take long for more and more comrades to understand that the right stab tactic in this snowstorm really worked. "Pierce from the left!" "Pierce from the left!" The shouts are getting louder and louder. Taking off their heavy coats and retributing their determination to fight, more than 800 soldiers of the 6th Regiment of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army fought bravely and tenaciously against the Japanese troops of the Miyazaki Brigade in the wind and snow. The second hand-to-hand combat was even better than the first. Under the leadership of Xu Donghai and other commanders, not only did the troops not be quickly wiped out in the battle, but the ratio of Chinese and Japanese deaths even changed from 4 to 6 in the first battle to 2 to 8. The seemingly fragile line of defense of the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants was like a solid reef in the tide, nailed to the second line of defense, without retreating at all.

At this time, in the military headquarters of the 18th Army, Mu Husan listened to the dense telephone ringing, and his expression was extremely solemn. Not only was the 6th Regiment attacked by the enemy, but in the face of the defensive positions in the direction of the 19th Division, the Japanese attacked in five or six places. Not only the infantry attacked, but the Japanese artillery again opened fire on the positions of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army. Due to the lack of combat experience in large-scale freezing weather, the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army encountered the problem of guns being frozen on a large scale. The various units were very nervous.

And where is the main point of attack of the enemy at the moment, this has become the biggest doubt of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army. Due to the disadvantage of troops, it was not easy to adjust the defensive position of the position, and Mu Husan only sent a battalion of reinforcements in the direction of the sixth regiment. On a snowy day, he completely abandoned firepower warfare and used bayonet hand-to-hand combat, and Mu Husan was very puzzled by this action of the Japanese army. Not only Mu Husan, but most of the comrades in the military headquarters of the 18th Army believed that the Japanese army had a major conspiracy. Once the defensive positions of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army were greatly adjusted, and the Japanese army suddenly launched a fierce attack, it was possible that the entire defense system would collapse. The question is, where exactly is the next point of attack for the Japanese army?

"If it doesn't work, send the Air Force to investigate?" A staff officer asked. However, his tone was also extremely uncertain, it was actually difficult for the air force to be dispatched on such a snowy day.

"Or just raise the hot air balloon and take a look." Other staff officers suggested.

Chief of Staff Liu Guange glared at the two comrades, "The current temperature is that the hot air balloon can't rise at all!" ”

As soon as the words fell, Mu Husan suddenly stood up from his seat. "Order the 5th Regiment on both sides of the 6th Regiment to move closer to the 6th Regiment together with the 7th Regiment. If the rifle still freezes, a bayonet battle will be conducted, and in any case, the enemy in front of the 6th Regiment will be completely annihilated. ”

The comrades in the headquarters were stunned, but Liu Guange soon showed a look of understanding, and he immediately picked up the phone and began to order the operator to connect.

The staff officer hurriedly said: "Commander, the Sixth Regiment has indeed encountered a large number of enemy attacks in front of it, but this should be a feint. ”

"Feints? We have planes, positions, and preparations for several days, but now we still can't figure out the deployment of the Japanese army. How did the Japanese army figure out our deployment? And this snow has been falling all night, can the Japanese army not know? Marching in the snow, how much physical strength did the Japanese army have to send a large force of reinforcements? The Japanese devils just want us to think that the Sixth Regiment is facing a feint. ”

"If it wasn't a feint, why did the Japanese army use such backward tactics in hand-to-hand combat?" The staff officer still didn't quite understand.

"How is hand-to-hand combat lagging behind? If an army does not dare to engage in hand-to-hand combat with bayonets, it is not a qualified army! In this snowy day, our guns can't go off, but the Japanese guns can? Mu Husan had completely figured out the joint, and after loudly refuting the staff officer's objections, he continued to issue orders, "The commander of the 19th Division of the Japanese Army is quite old and spicy, has rich experience in winter operations, and can adjust it according to the situation. All units must be prepared for hand-to-hand combat with bayonets. When the enemy faced by the various units launched hand-to-hand combat, our troops must make more use of grenades and other close-range weapons. However, the divisions must mercilessly attack the enemy with bayonet battles! ”

In the face of such a straightforward order, most of the staff officers showed shocked looks. Only the chief of staff, Liu Guange, was unaffected, and issued orders to all units according to Mu Husan's wishes.

Miyazaki, the commander of the Miyazaki Brigade in charge of the attack, stood upright in the snow on Tuesday, not because he deliberately wanted to maintain the demeanor of a soldier, but in the temperature of more than 20 degrees below zero, the human body would naturally show a stiff posture. Miyazaki, as brigade commander on Tuesday, also wore a tweed coat with better warmth. Ordinary Japanese soldiers were just wearing "thicker" military uniforms than autumn clothes, and Miyazaki could imagine on Tuesday that these Japanese soldiers were only more "stiff" at this time.

In front of Miyazaki on Tuesday were the bodies of several officers and soldiers of the Revolutionary Army of Workers and Peasants who had been killed in battle, and the clothes on the corpses had been removed. This was the first time that the Japanese army got a sample of the winter clothes of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army. Wool was used extensively in these uniforms, and even cotton clothes were elaborately designed, with several threads sealed with a sewing machine at the waist and other positions. And the padded garment is also equipped with a wide corseted belt. Don't look at such a simple treatment, but it makes the position of the waist tighter and reduces the problem of messy clothes during combat.

Even if the coat was taken off, the thin cotton clothes inside the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army were still warm enough. Its performance far exceeds the current "winter coat" of the Japanese army.

"Haven't you broken through yet?" Miyazaki forcibly took his eyes off the uniform of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army on Tuesday and asked the chief of staff next to him a little weakly. In fact, these words were very redundant, and the shouts in the distance did not stop at all, and the chaotic sound meant that the fierce battle was going on brutally.

"There is no news of victory yet." The chief of staff said it very implicitly.

The Miyazaki Brigade now has nearly 10,000 troops, and nearly 8,000 troops can go to the front to participate in hand-to-hand combat. The Miyazaki Brigade had already thrown all its forces into battle. According to the information obtained by the Japanese army, the 18th Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army opposite was a reorganized unit. At full strength, there were only 20,000 people. The total number of enemies that the Miyazaki brigade asked to face would definitely not exceed three thousand. With nearly three times the superiority in troops, Miyazaki still could not solve the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army in front of him in a short time, and Miyazaki felt a real chill in his heart on Tuesday. He participated in the Russo-Japanese War, and the "gray cattle of the tsar" of the Russian army had a very good performance in hand-to-hand combat. The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, which has such combat effectiveness, is no less comprehensive in combat effectiveness than the Russian army, which is in the second rate in Europe. The People's Party has an army of more than one million, and judging from the current equipment of the Northeast Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, its war potential is far superior to that of the Japanese army. Miyazaki couldn't help but panic on Tuesday.

The hand-to-hand combat had been close to an hour by this time, and the sky had already brightened a little, and Gao Yucheng felt that the black fog in front of him had dissipated a lot. The battlefield in front of him was much wider at this time, and the ground was littered with corpses. All the remaining commanders and fighters of the Sixth Regiment maintained the last thin front with the regimental commander and the guard team as the core. It was another hand-to-hand battle of almost half an hour, and the battalion of the Sixth Regiment and the Ninth Regiment that rushed over to help added up to more than 2,000 people, and the rest was less than a tenth. Except for a very few lucky people who have been able to hold on until now, the rest are hand-to-hand combat masters.

Gao Yucheng was involved in hand-to-hand combat more than ten minutes ago, he didn't know why he suddenly followed his comrades to the front line, the Japanese army howled and rushed up, Gao Yucheng still subconsciously raised his gun to shoot. But the stiff trigger won't pull at all. Fortunately, a comrade blocked the enemy's thrust with a bayonet, and Gao Yucheng did not know what to do next.

"What a seed!" Gao Yucheng heard someone next to him scolding angrily, and at the same time, the man rushed forward with an arrow and stabbed a bayonet into the throat of the Japanese soldier.

After dealing with the Japanese army, the man turned his head and shouted, "Fight the bayonet!" Pierce with a bayonet! After shouting, the soldiers in front of them had already rushed forward like a wind.

Before Gao Yucheng could understand, he was caught among the screaming comrades behind him and was forced to rush forward.

The last thing you need on the battlefield is to think, Gao Yucheng didn't understand what was going on and what he should do. However, after being attacked by the Japanese army twice in a row, and then rescued by his comrades, Gao Yucheng also picked up his rifle in a daze, and another Japanese soldier with a white beard and white eyebrows rushed over, and he rushed over with a howl from his mouth, and this time Gao Yucheng also rushed up to the Japanese army with a bayonet.

Gao Yucheng's posture of fighting bayonets was too clumsy, if it weren't for a comrade in front of him who blocked the Japanese army with a bayonet, Gao Yucheng would definitely be picked to death by a bayonet from the Japanese army on the opposite side. But with such a simple block, Gao Yucheng's bayonet stabbed straight into the chest of the Japanese soldier, and it did not stop until the bayonet was blocked by the bone.

It was such an experience that Gao Yucheng suddenly understood one thing without thinking, he really killed a Japanese, and it was the first time he killed an enemy with a bayonet on the battlefield. Before he could understand what this meant, a few more Japanese soldiers appeared in front of him, and the comrades who had just helped Gao Yucheng resist the Japanese spurt had already rushed towards the Japanese army.

Gao Yucheng wanted to pull out the bayonet, but he couldn't do it, because he accidentally slipped and fell to the ground because of the excessive force. There was a rifle with a bayonet on the ground, and Gao Yucheng couldn't care so much, he grabbed the rifle from the ground, got up, and continued to rush forward with his comrades.

On this boiling battlefield, Gao Yucheng followed his comrades and worked hard to move forward. When he encounters an enemy, he stabs him, and if his comrades do not kill the enemy with a single blow, he goes up to mend the sword. is fighting in such a daze, Gao Yucheng has supported it until now. But at this time, Gao Yucheng's physical strength was also at its limit, his legs were as heavy as a plumb sink, and his breathing was as heavy as a bellows. And a large amount of cold air entered his lungs, making Gao Yucheng's lungs as painful as fire.

"I'm dying, am I?" Gao Yucheng struggled to pull out a bayonet from a Japanese soldier's production, which is no longer known as the first rifle he replaced, anyway, the last thing lacking on the ground is the rifle and corpse with bayonets. But after pulling it out many times, Gao Yucheng also mastered a little bit of the doorway.

"I really can't do it anymore!" Because he took a few big breaths of cold air, Gao Yucheng simply coughed loudly. The violent cough made Gao Yucheng's snot and tears welling up together.

Standing alone on the battlefield strewn with corpses, Gao Yucheng saw several Japanese soldiers rushing towards him, and what he thought in his mind was, "If I can survive, next time I must train the bayonet well." This thought surprised Gao Yucheng, he knew that he was about to die at the hands of the Japanese, but he did not have the slightest fear, but felt a sense of relief. But even so, Gao Yucheng still staggered to pick up the rifle and made a posture of fighting with a bayonet. Seeing Gao Yucheng's appearance of being a trapped beast, those Japanese soldiers who were not only eyebrows and beards, but also white because of the snow actually hesitated, and their steps became a lot slower.

For some reason, Gao Yucheng's heart suddenly relaxed, "Ah! The Japanese are scared! This is the first time that Gao Yucheng has faced the Japanese without fear, and it is also the first time that Gao Yucheng has seen the Japanese show real fear when facing him. Despite this, the Japanese still did not stop, they just spread out, trying to surround Gao Yucheng with a fan angle, and then attack!

After such a short moment, Gao Yucheng felt that the breath that he couldn't breathe was finally even, "If I had known that the Japanese were nothing to fear, I would have been able to kill more Japanese!" With this awareness, Gao Yucheng aimed at the nearest Japanese soldier, raised his bayonet and rushed forward.

A dense burst of gunfire rang out, and Gao Yucheng found that the Japanese soldier in front of him had fallen, but he immediately felt a chill under his ribs, and his whole strength was completely drained by the cold feeling. Falling to the ground softly, Gao Yucheng suddenly gave birth to a sense of relaxation, he lived for twenty-three years, experienced the hunger of childhood and youth, the indulgence of being a bandit when he was a teenager and youth, and followed Zhang Dashuai as a soldier The sense of security that was not easy to get. But on this snowy battlefield, Gao Yucheng felt peace for the first time. Being a true warrior was an extremely short-lived experience for Gao Yucheng, and he didn't even have time to think about it. But even in this very short experience, Gao Yucheng felt for the first time the feeling of being truly feared, and for the first time felt the ease brought by the fact that a real warrior can only have death when crossing life and death.

After being deeply pierced by a Japanese bayonet under the ribs, Gao Yucheng, a soldier of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, fell. He did not see the Japanese soldiers falling to the ground after being concentrated by a round of bullets. Nor did they see a large number of soldiers of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army surging on both sides of the front that the Sixth Regiment had maintained at the cost of almost total annihilation. These fighters did not obsess into the shootout, but after two rows of guns, they also joined the battle group with bayonets.

The Japanese troops, who had marched in the ice and snow for almost the whole night, and then fought for an hour with all their strength and will, could not hold out for long under such a flanking attack from the left and right. The fierce battle lasted less than twenty minutes, and the Japanese army, which had suffered heavy casualties, collapsed. The Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army had no intention of letting them escape, and the new recruits pursued them all the way, stabbing to death from behind the fleeing Japanese troops, who looked weak and weak.

After Gao Yucheng was stabbed by the Japanese army, he fainted. The Japanese bayonet broke in his body, and the metal quickly exchanged heat between the inside of the human body and the cold air, and Gao Yucheng's internal organs and blood vessels quickly froze. In just a few minutes, Gao Yucheng, a former liberation fighter of the Northeast Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, died. Like nearly 2,000 other soldiers who died honorably, he left no last words, let alone any grandiose words. Just fell quietly on the land of the motherland.
