readx;

The sky was slightly bright, and the border offensive and defensive battle between the An Jiajun and the German ** team was still going on fiercely, and unexpectedly, the Germans used all their strength, but they were still unable to move forward, and the whole front fell into a stalemate.

On the defensive position of the 2nd Battalion and 1st Company of the 196th Regiment that fought all night, the company commander Fan Qicheng had already reached the forefront, only a bright eye appeared on his dark face, and his white teeth appeared when he spoke, which was very funny.

The Germans learned to be obedient, and the huge number of self-propelled guns changed places after a few shots, and continued to maintain pressure on the defensive positions of the Anjia army.

Shells fell one after another, and the dust and smoke from the explosion almost obscured the sky. And in front of the company's position, the wreckage of about fifty or sixty tanks, billowing smoke, testified to the fierceness of the previous battle.

At this time, more than a hundred German soldiers, bypassing these piles of scrap metal, bowed their waists and cautiously advanced towards the position of the Anjia army.

Lieutenant Fan Qicheng quietly poked his head out of the trench, saw the Germans getting closer and closer, his face showed excitement, and he ordered loudly: "Fire!" Brothers, beat and beat these treacherous German devils to death! ”

"Porphyry—"

The sound of tearing tarpaulins on the position sounded, and a salvo of more than a dozen general-purpose machine guns sprayed out dense bullets, and the bullets rained down, and the German soldiers fell in a large area in an instant. The other German soldiers quickly fell to their stomachs and returned fire with rifles and submachine guns.

The two sides went back and forth, and the gunfire was incessant, and it didn't take long for the barrels of the general-purpose machine guns on the position to turn red, and they had to be urgently replaced, and the remnants of tracer bullets over the entire position flew back and forth in the morning light.

Li Fa, the leader of the first class, because "8" is usually regarded as an auspicious number, represents the hair, and the two circles are tied together is the hair, so the nickname is the old bolt, and Li Zero, who plays with Li Fa to the big, "zero" is "〇", bulging like a winter melon, so the nickname is winter melon.

Li Fa and Li Ling are partners who play together to the end, and the two of them who can't open the pot at home in 39 years ran together from Pixian County in the suburbs of Chengdu to Xufu to join the army, and the following year they became volunteers together because of their good performance. Li Ling, who has reached the junior high school level in cultural training last year, was transferred to the training class to learn bazooka operation techniques, and Li Fa, who had just been promoted to squad leader, asked for family leave to go home and asked for a kiss from the girl who had been in love for a long time, and the woman was originally disgusted with the poor and loved the rich, and was ready to hand over her daughter to the landlord of the neighboring village as a concubine, but Li Fa directly took the non-commissioned officer certificate and the military salary he received when he went home, and the landlord's family saw that the active soldiers of the Anjia Army were involved and hurriedly came to the door to make amends, and the woman's family had to give in softly, and Li Fa only gave a dowry of 50 yuan to take his wife home. By now, his wife has given birth to a big fat boy at home.

Li Fa knows how his identity and status came about, he cherishes everything in front of him very much, he understands that as long as he fights bravely, even if he sacrifices his family, he will not worry about no one to take care of him, if he is passive and afraid of war, not only will he still be shot, but he will also have no benefits, and he will fight very bravely.

Li Fa followed the deformed defensive trench, hid in a shallow crater that had been newly blown out, and then half-crouched and fired at the German soldiers on the opposite side with an automatic rifle, sending two Germans to God in a company.

"Old bolt!"

Two figures jumped to Li Fa's side, and one of the familiar voices greeted, and he didn't need to look at Li Fa to know that it was Li Ling and his secondary shooter.

"Winter melon, tie one? Hurt (read man)? ”

The old bolt turned his head, glanced roughly, and saw that the cotton farmer on his brother's body was the same as himself, and it was so tattered that it was not in shape. In West Asia in November, the temperature difference between morning and evening is very large, and the temperature can reach more than 20 degrees during the day, but the temperature will quickly drop to about zero degrees at night, so every officer and soldier has to prepare two sets of clothes.

At this time, there was a place on Li Ling's arm where white smoke was emitting, and his face was also black, leaving only a pair of teeth and the whites of his eyes to confirm the position of his facial features.

"It's okay, my face is smoked with cannonball soot, just a few shells exploded above my and Xiaohua's brains, fortunately, we squatted at a clever angle, dodging shrapnel and air waves, but the spreading black smoke did not dodge, and there was a flame on my arm, so it was like this embarrassment."

After speaking, Li Ling rubbed his pitch-black nose with his hand, and as a result, a black and white mark came out of the end of his nose, which immediately destroyed the overall black tone on his face, making it look dirtier and uglier.

Called Xiaohua's bazooka deputy shooter was formerly known as Duanmuhua, nineteen years old this year, a native of Ganzhou, Jiangxi, but his figure is not small at all, but tall and strong, originally he was a miner in the Xihuashan tungsten mine in southern Jiangxi, and he couldn't stand the exploitation of black-hearted capitalists, and rushed to the Anjia Army recruit recruitment point in old Nanchang after the Spring Festival in 40 years to sign up for the army, and turned into a volunteer soldier at the beginning of this year, his main responsibility is to carry rockets and protect the safety of the main shooter.

Duanmuhua is very talented in shooting, at this moment he listened to Li Fa and Li Ling talking in the local accent, while using the semi-automatic rifle in his hand to aim at a machine gun fire point that was strafing in the direction of the three people, as the gunfire rang out, the German main shooter on the opposite side shot in the eyebrows, and fell headlong on the general-purpose machine gun, and the threat disappeared suddenly.

"It's okay, what are you doing here with me?" After confirming that the old brother was fine, Li Fa felt a slightly rapid heartbeat and eased a lot.

Li Ling gave Duanmuhua a thumbs up approvingly, and then said, "It's too fierce, it's too hard, it's not a rocket...... Throughout the night, all the rockets in the position were exhausted, and the transport company was still rushing to transport them...... Mo De rocket, I'm an infantryman now, just back to help you, Xiaohua has good marksmanship, I asked him to come over and fight the Germans together. ”

After Li Ling finished speaking, he lit up the calibrated Zhongzheng Type 3 semi-automatic rifle in his hand, and Li Fa noticed that the bazooka was gone.

"Haosa, your turtle son has good marksmanship and a talent for shooting, and it is because of this that he was selected to be a bazooka player...... The dog-day Germans got up and charged again, and beat Lao Tzu hard! ”

After saying that, Li Fa jumped a few times and jumped into a trench on the left, where the automatic rifle constantly spewed flames, reaping the lives of the charging German officers and soldiers.

Li Ling and Duanmuhua followed suit, and the semi-automatic rifle shot one after another, both of them had good marksmanship, almost one shot, no less than the fire suppression of the automatic rifle.

At this time, on the fortress more than 100 meters behind the position, the long-dormant 12.7 mm caliber Gaoping dual-purpose machine gun suddenly opened fire, and the condescending rain of bullets overturned the German troops to the ground, and the entire front of the position was empty.

Just when Li Fa breathed a sigh of relief, the whistling sound of cannonballs cutting through the air came.

"Hidden!"

"Boom-"

Shells flying in the distance exploded one after another on the position, and shrapnel was filled with dust and fired in all directions, and Li Fa and the entire squad of brothers held their heads and stuck to the tunnel wall, not daring to move, nervously waiting for the shelling to end.

This round of shelling lasted for four or five minutes, and then gradually thinned out, Li Fa poked his head out vigilantly, carefully observed the situation on the left and right, and found that the position on the left was being subjected to intensive artillery bombardment ten times more ferocious than his own, and the various strong fortifications on the gentle slope there were like papier-mâché toys, torn and crumpled by the force of the explosion, and then thrown high into the air. The remaining mines at the front of the position were constantly detonated, the barbed wire fence that had been lying down in the previous shelling was torn to pieces, and the officers and soldiers hidden in the trenches were blown to pieces.

"Holy shit, the left flank in charge of the second company is in danger, the first class, follow me to reinforce!"

Li Fa quickly judged the focus of the German attack, beckoned the remaining eight officers and men of the class, and went with him to the left flank, which had suffered heavy losses. You must know that the middle line that the company is responsible for, the position has the assistance of the rear fortress fire, and the left and right flanks are in the open area between the forts, and the defensive pressure is much greater.

At the front of the position on the left, the German infantry lined up in a straggler formation and swooped towards the position, and in front of them were two No. 4 tanks, two behemoths that fired their guns and machine-guns, and slowly pounced on the position. Behind tank No. 4, there were also four wheeled armored vehicles. When a hundred meters away from the trench, the tank alertly stopped, and the main guns and machine guns fired continuously, covering the infantry jumping from the armored car, launching a short charge to the position.

"Not good, prepare a grenade, sixty meters in front of the right, throw!"

Li Fa led a group of soldiers to the defensive position on the right flank of the second company, and ran in the half-man-high tunnel, Li Fa saw that about a platoon of German troops had rushed up under the cover of tank and armored vehicle fire, and quickly gave the battle order.

The nine soldiers who cooperated with the tacit understanding took out the grenade from their waists while running, pulled the strings and threw them decisively. The grenade swirled and flew out of the sky for more than 50 meters, and exploded violently after landing, and the high-explosive ** tore apart the body of the projectile and the preset fragments of the grooved cast iron fastened outside, and blew away more than a dozen German infantry who just rushed here.

Li Ling and Duanmuhua followed behind Li Fa, advancing rapidly, and when they entered the defensive position of the second company, more than a dozen remnant officers and soldiers of several adjacent squads of the second company were constantly shaking their heads and patting the flying ash on their bodies, trying to recover from the shock wave and oscillation of the explosion just now.

Li Ling glanced around, and suddenly found a round pipe under a dead officer and soldier above the position, and a cracked ammunition box next to it, revealing the black shells inside, with a look of joy on his face. He never imagined that he would find Type III bazookas and rockets here.

"Lao Tie, Xiaohua, cover me!"

Li Ling roared, pounced towards the bazooka exposed to German fire, lifted the robe corpse that had turned purple on the bazooka, picked up the bazooka, and quickly sat down against the trench wall, "suddenly", and a row of bullets was fired against Li Ling's steel helmet at this time.

The deputy shooter Xiao Hua fired three bullets in succession, knocking the three approaching German soldiers to the ground, immediately carrying the gun to his shoulder, carefully approaching the trench wall, lifting the rocket box and quickly putting it on the ground.

The second company's general-purpose machine gun fire rang out, knocking over more than 10 Germans more than 20 meters away from the position, and then another grenade was thrown out, which brought down the Germans' "short-frequency and fast" attack.

Li Fa stopped shooting, quickly hung a grenade under the body of his automatic rifle, and fired it at an armored vehicle that was firing.

A thirty-seven-mm grenade, at a distance of more than fifty meters, instantly penetrated the eight-mm front armor plate of the German SDKFZ231 armored car.

The armored car made a loud "bang" and ignited a raging fire.

Three more fighters in the first squad hung up their guns and grenades and smashed the other three armored combat vehicles that were firing into a fire cabinet, and there was a cheer from the position.

The German tanks were in a hurry, covering the infantry, and "rumbled" towards the position.

The two soldiers, who still had grenades, quickly raised their guns to shoot, but unfortunately, the grenades that hit the target directly only emitted a ball of fire on the front armor of the tank, sputtering a large amount of self-contained fragments, which did not bring it much damage, but the two officers and soldiers fell under the fire of the parallel and course machine guns, and their chests were almost broken.

The 75 mm 48 barreled tank guns of the two tanks, as well as four 7.92 mm MG34 general-purpose machine guns, fired non-stop, and the infantry who followed the tank attack fired incessantly, crushing the officers and men of Anjia on this front in the trenches and unable to move.

At this time, Li Ling had already loaded the bazooka with ammunition, he nodded to Li Fa, and Li Fa shouted again: "Grenade ready...... Cast! ”

The remaining five officers and men of the first squad threw out the grenades in their hands, including two smoke bombs in the slag, which attracted the attention of the Germans at once.

Li Ling rushed forward more than ten steps along the trench, quietly poked out half of his head, observed the situation on the battlefield, and then moved forward again, running more than fifty meters away in one go. Duanmuhua, the deputy shooter, held the ammunition box and followed closely behind Li Ling.

At this time, the officers and men of the second company also saw Li Ling's intentions, and knew that rockets were the only sharp weapon against tanks, so they did the same and threw grenades at the approaching Germans.

Li Ling took a deep breath, stood up suddenly, fired in the direction of the tank, and then quickly crouched down.

"Whoosh-"

The rocket dragged a long flame tail and rushed towards the German tank, and the No. 4 tank, which was firing at the right of the position, was hit by its side armor at a 26-degree angle, and the rocket exaggeratedly pierced through the armor, penetrating into the tank and exploding, a muffled sound came, and the tank rose into a puff of smoke and lay down.

Seeing that there was anti-tank fire on the position, the other tank hurriedly turned, allowing Li Ling, who had just finished loading, to seize the opportunity and hit again, and the remaining German infantry retreated like a tide, and the position finally turned dangerous. (To be continued)
