Chapter 176: The Unknown Man

"What Li Yuanhong is doing at this time is the "Regulations of the Government", which is obviously to restrict Duan Qirui, hehe, these two people are interesting."

Yang Shuai had just experienced the most cruel noon torture of the little witch Lu Yun in the family, and finally came to the military headquarters, at this time he was looking at a newspaper in Shanghai, and he didn't expect that the newspaper in Shanghai was actually sold in Guangxi.

Cheng Siyuan happened to come to report on his work, and he laughed when he heard it, he was engaged in politics, and no one knew the keys better than him. Cheng Siyuan said: "Duan Qirui and Li Yuanhong can only see a struggle, as long as it breaks out in the cabinet Xu Shuzheng and Sun Hongyi. Sun Hongyi originally advocated using Feng Guozhang to suppress Duan Qirui, and he himself was a conceited person, competitive and unwilling to be subordinate. It is precisely because of this that he has become a talent that Li Yuanhong urgently 'needs', and Sun Hongyi sees that with the support of the president, Sun Hongyi can be active, hehehe, don't you know that Sun Hongyi is just a tool of Li Yuanhong. ”

Yang Shuai: "One is holding on to the 'Congress', and the other is holding the 'Overseer Army', these two will sooner or later overturn the situation that has finally calmed down again." Okay, okay, we don't care about things in the north, did Zhang Lingpu's military report come back? ”

Zhao Yan just came in, her round face couldn't find her eyes when she smiled, and said, "Then, military commander, just come here, you see." ”

Yang Shuai, Cheng Siyuan and the others hurriedly leaned over, but a few people didn't dare to fight too obviously, so they had to secretly look at the military newspaper in Yang Shuai's hand with their eyes, and at the same time observe Yang Shuai's face. I saw Yang Shuai open it, the corners of his mouth raised, and he laughed.

Huo Dong is a sapper, this is technical work. On weekdays, the big-headed soldiers don't look at Huo Dong very respectfully, they think that Huo Dong is not a real man, and he is not fierce enough when he fights. But every time there is a difficult fortification, when the bridge is paved, even if it is just when the carriage falls into the pit, everyone invariably calls a name: "Call Huo Donglai." ”

Huo Dong always has a way, and gradually, everyone found out that although Huo Dong has not killed an enemy, he is the person who saves the most people. On this day, Huo Dong was called to the position by the vanguard company. When Huo Dong saw it, his heart beat for a while, and all the people present were people he knew, or had heard of, because they were all sappers.

With so many sappers gathered together, it seems that the regiment commander is going to storm Tianyang. Sure enough, after a while, the company commander of the vanguard company led a group of people over, and everyone behind them was holding a bundle of things.

Company Commander: "Today you attack with our vanguard company, each person has an explosive bag, and the brothers of our company will give their lives to protect you, you baby pimples." What to do, I don't need to say that you should also be clear, have you seen the city gate in front, our task is to protect you from rushing over, and your task is to use these explosive packs to blow up that gate to Lao Tzu. ”

The little company commander obviously looked down on these baby bumps, in his words, that is, put a bag of explosives, who wouldn't, why do you have to use these people, we have to protect them. What the? Explosives weren't just placed? It's useless to blow up the wrong place? , I don't believe in this evil.

But there is an order from above, and today's vanguard is doing this.

The little company commander turned around and yelled: "Brothers of the pioneer company, you are ready, the attack is about to begin, you remember Lao Tzu, Lao Tzu's company will always be the pioneer company, remember?" ”

"Yes, the Pioneer Company, the most invincible."

About 200 people roared like this, causing the company next to them to laugh. The company commander was angry and yelled at those companies: "What are you laughing at, Lao Tzu is a pioneer company, hum, you are only worthy of following Lao Tzu's ass." Hey, Wang Laojiu, when we will attack, remember to hide behind us, Lao Tzu will protect you, hahaha. ”

The army, forever such a place, vulgar. But this group of hot-blooded men, with their rough hands and enlarged chests, did not hesitate to sacrifice their lives to defend the conviction in their hearts, a new regime, slowly advancing towards the goal of benefiting the people.

Huo Dong held the explosives bag, shocked in his heart, the explosives bag sent this time was so heavy, heavier than before. Then Huo Dong smiled in his heart, which shows that our Third Army is getting more and more capital, and the explosives bags are getting thicker and thicker, and the good days are not far away.

At this time, the sappers holding the explosives bag quickly gathered together, and Huo Dong also gathered.

"Buddy, look at it, it sounds like the top, this attack is estimated to be more urgent, maybe it is just to catch the enemy by surprise. Therefore, the most critical task of our mission is that if we can blow up the city gate in the first place, our army can quickly break into the city and fight street battles. On the contrary, if we can't blow up the city gate as soon as possible, and wait for the enemy troops in the city to react and reinforce here, it will be a great harm to our army. ”

"Yes, I agree. And I found out that this time the blasting, unlike in the past, this time we are attacking with the vanguard company, that is to say, the safety factor is far lower than before, maybe in the process of our operation, we may be attacked by the enemy, it will be dead, who wants to quit, I still have a buddy who was not selected, who wants to quit, give up the position to my buddy. ”

These ten people, including Huo Dong, are all from different companies, although they all know each other on weekdays, but they don't have such deep feelings. As soon as everyone heard this person say this, they all became unhappy, oh, your buddy is coming, we will quit, we are all cowards. When you are a soldier, you are afraid of being looked down upon by your comrades-in-arms, and you are competitive, and sometimes it is a good thing to be in the army.

"you, your brother, wait for next time."

"It's, it's just, we don't have any bad seeds."

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, we don't have cowards here, let's talk about how to break that door."

"I have seen from afar, I have guarded the city gates before, and I know that the gates of such a small county town are not so strong. Moreover, the biggest breakthrough point is not on both sides, but on the door bolt, that is, between the two doors. A bag of explosives like this size, three stacked on top of each other, exploded with a bang, and directly blew off the deadbolt behind it. ”

The other said: "Okay, then let's do this, when the time comes, the middle of the four will be cheated, and then the rest, just in case." At the same time, we dug a small hole in the welded place between the door and the wall on the left side against the wall, and blew the door directly. ”

"Okay, that's it, two points of blasting, there's always one that works."

"The whole regiment attacks, the whole regiment attacks."

A loud roar, deafening in the trenches. The two heralds ran from left to right, running and yelling.

Huo Dong swallowed a mouthful of water for a while, did he go to the battlefield? Huo Dong is an authentic strong man, and he came after hearing about the recruitment of the Third Army. At that time, many people laughed at him, especially those compatriots in Zhuangxiang. In their opinion, Yang Shuai is a Han man, and you are a strong man who goes to him to be a soldier and will not be bullied.

But Huo Dong came, and after the end of the first month, there were twenty oceans, a lot. For the first time in twenty years, Huo Dong made money with his own skills, and he was so excited that he almost burst into tears. When Huo Dong sent 20 yuan home, his father later wrote that there was a sensation in the family, and the whole village couldn't believe that Huo Dong was really a soldier, maybe he went to Nanning to do something unseemly. But his father said that he believed in Huo Dong and believed that Huo Dong had become a real man, and asked him to work hard and not to embarrass the villagers.

Huo Dong glanced up at the south, where was his hometown. Every time he went to the battlefield, before that, Huo Dong looked at it like this. In Huo Dong's heart, no one knows if he can come back alive, just take a look.

Huo Dong is not afraid of death, he wants to be a man who stands up to the sky and the earth as his father said, and does not embarrass the Zhuangxiang people.

"Pioneer Company, Chong, Second Battalion, Protect Engineers, Chong."

Huo Dong stood up, lowered his head, bent his waist, and followed the soldiers on the left and right sides to rush forward, sometimes lying down, sometimes running wildly. The men of the Pioneer Company were beside him, and there were people screaming and falling, and then a place was vacated, and then another person rushed up from behind and added in.

Huo Dong gritted his teeth and said in his heart, they are all manly, these are all manly. Huo Dong didn't have much grief and anger, and he didn't have much anger, in his opinion, dying on the battlefield is the best place for a man, this is the real man.

"Boom-" A loud sound different from the sound of gunfire blasted the three soldiers to pieces, and even the ground was deeply dented with a large hole.

The company commander of the vanguard company shouted in front: "The enemy has artillery, the enemy has artillery, machine guns, where are the machine guns, where are the machine guns dead, give Lao Tzu a beating, fight to the death." ”

"Where is the machine gun, the company commander needs a machine gun, hurry, hurry. Aim there, there is a cannon, hit Lao Tzu. ”

"Brothers of the Pioneer Company, we have come to support you, hahaha, happy."

"Pioneer Company, hahahaha, Lao Tzu Wang Lao Jiu has caught up, hahaha."

The battle was fierce, and the two hundred men of the vanguard company fell one by one, because it was the vanguard, the breakthrough was the most obvious, and the blow received was also the greatest. Half an hour passed, and the Pioneer Company received the support of two companies, with more than a hundred dead and wounded, and finally rushed to the bottom of the city gates.

At this time, a demolition engineer is under the city gate, and this place is the safest for the time being. The soldiers of the Pioneer Company were fifty meters away, firing at the enemy, suffering heavy casualties.

Huo Dong yelled: "Quick, blow up the door." "Because he knows that there are countless soldiers waiting for the door to be broken, waiting to charge. And these soldiers, because they are close to the city gate, and they are condescending above, our soldiers are very at a loss, and every second, someone is dying.

There were only four of the twenty soldiers escorting the sappers left at this time, and they were anxious to watch Huo Dong and the others fiddling with the explosives bag.

"Hurry up."

Suddenly, there was movement on the other side of the gate, which was not sealed. Four soldiers rushed over and peeked in against the door, shouting, "Damn, enemy troops." Then he shot him in horror at the small gap.

And they could see that there were small holes in the city gate, which were obviously prepared for this situation, which was called a gun hole. With the gun hole, the enemy can design from the inside of the city gate without opening the door.

"Okay, no?"

Huo Dong yelled, and the four soldiers had already fallen two more. Huo Dong was in charge of the blasting in the middle, and he was ready to roar at the other side.

"Okay, I'll count to three, pull it, and I'll leave. Three, two, one, pull, withdraw. ”

The fuse on the explosive package is estimated to have more than ten seconds, and at this time three counts to one. Huo Dong also pulled suddenly, and the dynamite bag smoked everywhere.

Huo Dongteng jumped up, turned around and ran outside: "Pioneer Company, run, it's going to explode." The two soldiers also hurriedly drew their spears back from the gun's eyes, dragged them and ran, following Huo Dong, and said violently: "Blow up you bastards." ”

At this time, Huo Dong suddenly heard a voice behind him, which was the voice of the enemy: "It's not good, they want to cheat the city gate, hurry up, use a bamboo pole to poke the explosives bag a little farther away, don't let them stick to the city gate, hurry up." ”

Huo Dong looked back and was shocked. I saw that inside the city gate, a few bamboos were sticking out of the gun's hole, and they were poking at the folded explosives bag. A fixed-position explosive bag was stressed and rolled down.

Huo Dong couldn't help but lose his color, Nima's, how can the city gate say that there is bamboo, there is bamboo. The explosives pack rolled out of place, and it was specified that the city gate could not be blown open.

Huo Dong didn't think about it, so he turned around and yelled: "You go." Then he turned around and pounced on the explosives bag.

Several sappers heard the yelling, looked back, and shouted: "Huo Dong, come back, come back, it's going to blow up." ”

It was blown up, but it couldn't be blown up at the city gates. I will not allow this, the whole regiment is exposed under the city walls, waiting to attack, waiting to storm the city gates.

A gunshot rang out, Huo Dong stabbed in the shoulder, and he was shot.

Huo Dong smiled at the black muzzle, as if he saw his father's stern face: "You have to be a real man." ”

"Ahh

The black smoke on the fuse, the fluttering sound, and suddenly there was a small "pop", and the corners of Huo Dong's mouth were lined up, and he smiled.

"Boom-" dust to dust, dust to dust.

"The whole regiment charged, the second company at the east gate, and the third company—"

Zhang Lingpu stood on the stone mountain and smiled: "It's done." ”
