"What? It's true? No way! ”

Tang Shizun held Gao Fei's telegram in his hand, his face was incredulous, Zhou Conghua on the side looked at him, and he didn't know what was going on, Tang Shizun stayed there in a daze for a long time, and then handed the telegram to his chief of staff.

Zhou Conghua only glanced at it, and his expression suddenly changed greatly, and even his voice trembled a little:

"The arsenal of the Field Wing was blown up by Goofy?"

Neither of them believed that instead of rescuing the 17th Brigade in Guanlin Village, Gao Fei had done such an earth-shattering event.

"Give me the 21st Army Military Headquarters!" Tang Shizun walked quickly to the phone, grabbed the phone, and wanted to call Chen Wancheng, the commander of the 21st Army:

"Wan Yan, how is your situation now? What the? The devil's firepower suddenly weakened? Okay, I see, let me tell you a great piece of good news, the arsenal of the Field Wing was given to the team by Goofy? Fuck, what ears, it's Field Wing, right, you heard it right, no, it's an entire arsenal of Field Wing, uprooted by Goofy! Yes, get ready for the general attack! ”

Putting down the phone, Tang Shizun didn't know what to say for a while: "This grace, Gao Fei, is simply a miracle!" ”

"But the 17th Brigade is there," Zhou Conghua suddenly thought of this question.

"Gao Fei didn't save the 17th Brigade first, and instead attacked the Field Wing, which has his considerations." Tang Shizun pondered there for a while: "Gao Fei once said before that it is feasible to gather all the teams that can be assembled and storm the field team, but now I think about it carefully, it is feasible." Especially on the big and small mouth ridges, our artillery has been erected, which is condescending, and can bombard the field wing all night long, and the 17th brigade, I remobilized a regiment to reinforce. As for Goofy's suggestion, it works, it works"

Tang Shizun said a few feasible things in a row, and suddenly grabbed the phone again: "I am the commander-in-chief of the 23rd Group Army, order, the 147th Division, cooperate with the 148th Division, and all go into battle." Order, the 17th Brigade of the Independence continues to serve as the task of blocking the enemy's reinforcements, and the Order, the 15th Brigade of the Independence Brigade guards against the enemy's escape, and must capture Tian Ye Xiao alive! ”

As he spoke, he put down the phone and said to his staff officer: "Send a telegram to Gao Fei, I will give him the greatest freedom, and he can fight as much as he wants!" ”

Guanlin Village, the position of the 17th Brigade of the Independence.

It seems that the army has known the dangerous situation of the Field Wing and the Kunisaki Noboru Brigade, and after repeatedly failing to overcome them, instead of giving up, they have invested more troops to launch a more frantic attack!

A large number of planes bombed the positions in turn, fired low-flying strafing, and then bombarded them with artillery, and the infantry launched five fierce offensives in one day under the cover of tanks.

The enemy infantry, under the cover of tanks and artillery, advanced until about 300 meters from the position of the 17th Brigade, and did not begin to charge when the artillery fire was extended.

Many of the Sichuan-made weapons in the hands of the soldiers of the 17th Brigade did not work, and some soldiers simply left them around and did not use them until they jumped to a distance of fifty or sixty meters from us, and then they suddenly killed and wounded the enemy with dense grenades.

When the enemy rushed through the smoke of the grenade explosion and advanced to a distance of twenty or thirty meters from the position, the enemy's artillery fire was useless, and the officers and men jumped out of the fortifications, brandished broadswords and spears and engaged in hand-to-hand combat, and the two sides were superior in the close range of blood splashing. Some well-trained veterans have become a real bunch of good men on such occasions.

As the day approached, a group of charging devils rushed out of the smoke raised by the explosion of the grenade, with bright bayonets in their hands and strange screams in their mouths, and quickly approached our position. Yang Yi, the battalion commander who was directing the battle, saw it, pinned the pistol to his waist, grabbed a rifle with a bayonet, jumped out of the fortification, and shouted: "Charge!" Kill! ”

Flying to the enemy, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the soldiers jumped out of the fortifications and rushed out to the devil.

There were three devils and three bayonets that first rushed to Battalion Commander Yang, raising their guns and stabbing them. Battalion Commander Yang was quick with his hands, raised his hand and stabbed the spear of the devil in front of him down, and shouted: "Kill-"

The bayonet pierced the devil's ribs.

I saw that this devil's knees were weak, his knees hit the ground first, and then his upper body bent, and he fell down, and the Type 38 rifle fell to the ground with a "dang"!

This is the posture that the devil most appreciates when talking about the Chinese soldiers being stabbed down by them, and the victorious devil often relish it when he takes a nap after the fight. However, they did not seem to have imagined that when the Chinese soldiers returned the salute, their performances would be similar.

Battalion Commander Yang didn't have time to appreciate his masterpiece, and before the devil had completely fallen down, he quickly pulled out his bloody bayonet, turned around and stabbed the second devil with another "whoosh" shot.

When the two armies met, the brave wins, and the second devil saw his companion fall to the ground, and his courage was half gone, and he saw the bloody bayonet with a whirlwind coming towards him head-on, and he couldn't dodge in a panic, and he was already stabbed by a shot, grabbed with both hands, and fell headlong.

As soon as the third devil saw that Battalion Commander Yang was covered in blood, his eyes widened in anger, and he pulled out his gun and stabbed himself with a majestic manner, but he was already distracted, and he did not dare to fight, and his consistent bushido spirit disappeared, and his legs suddenly felt cold, and he turned around and fled.

The officers and men who rushed over saw that the battalion commander had wounded two enemies in a row, and their courage was doubled, and they took advantage of the situation to cover up the killing.

The 17th Regiment of the 62nd Brigade defended on the 138th Heights on the left side of Mazifeng, adjacent to the 63rd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment on the left.

The terrain here is relatively steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It is said that the army first bombed and strafed with planes in turn, and then used artillery to cover the infantry charge, and the tanks could not come up, so they could only circle at the foot of the mountain. Because the mountain is steep, it is quite laborious for the charging devil soldiers to rush up from the bottom of the mountain.

Each time the enemy charged, he carried a steel helmet on his head and crawled forward.

Even if the devil rushed to a place fifty or sixty meters away from the position, the Chuan-made rifle did not have much lethality, and the bullet hit the steel helmet and sparked, but it did not drill into it, and only when the devil raised his head, he could concentrate a few rifles and knock the enemy over.

Most of our officers and men condescended to take advantage of the situation and used grenades to repel the enemy's attack. The regiment commander Qiao Shouyi saw a devil with his head buried in his head, wearing a steel helmet, desperate to climb up, the soldiers' Sichuan-made rifles aimed at him and fired more than a dozen shots, all helpless The steel helmet on his head, seeing that this outlaw was crawling closer and closer, it was only forty or fifty meters, Qiao Shouyi transferred a Czech light machine gun, ordered the machine gunner to aim and shoot, forty or fifty meters at a close distance, "da, da, da" a shuttle of bullets past, and the steel helmet was full of holes.

In this attack, Qiao Shouyi's regiment killed one company commander, three platoon commanders, countless soldiers, and dozens of corpses of devil soldiers were also placed under the mountain.

The 2nd Battalion of the 63rd Regiment of Dai Dali in the west ditch of the left flank was not as lucky as Qiao Shouyi's regiment, and the defensive position had a flat terrain, the enemy tanks were on a rampage, and the infantry charged fiercely, and the battalion suffered heavy casualties, but it never took a step back.

At the height of the battle, the position of the 2nd Battalion was broken through by the Japanese army, and the platoon commander Guo Daishu's left leg was pierced by a machine gun bullet, and blood gushed like a spring. The platoon commander would rather die than retreat, and lay down in the fortifications. Several enemy soldiers surrounded him, marching forward with bayonets and forcing the platoon commander to be captured. When the enemy approached, the platoon commander of the scrivener struggled to pull the grenade, and after a loud bang, he died with the enemy.

Soon, the army began to attack more violently.

The enemy launched a ferocious attack on Mazi Peak, planes, artillery, and tanks bombarded together, infantry advanced step by step, and bullets rained down.

The position was filled with gunsmoke, flying sand and rocks, and even the figures could not be seen clearly.

If the officers and men were still a little nervous at the beginning of the battle, at this moment, everyone was red-eyed, and life and death had long been put out of the way.

During the battle, the casualties of our troops continued to increase, and the casualties of the junior officers were especially high. As soon as a platoon commander fell beside Qiao Shouyi, the regiment commander was immediately promoted to replace a new platoon commander surnamed Yang from his side, but as soon as he took over, he was martyred.

The battle continued into the afternoon, and the position of the main peak of Mazi Peak was lost.

On the second-line positions, the two sides continued to fight and fight repeatedly, and the positions were littered with the corpses of soldiers on both sides. The rear of the position was completely blocked by artillery fire, and the wounded could not be delivered, and food and water could not be delivered. The officers and men did not enter the dripping water all day long, and there were fewer and fewer personnel who could persist in the battle.

Qiao Shouyi reported to the brigade headquarters on the phone that the casualties of the troops were too large and it was difficult to support!

Rao Xihua's reply is very simple, this is the duty that my brigade headquarters must fulfill, we can't be thin, don't let people say that our Sichuan soldiers can't fight, you have to continue to insist on it, use all the reserves, and I will organize reinforcements.

After a while, Qiao Shouyi called again, and Rao Xihua said the same thing again. Repeat it several times, and it's all the same.

In the end, Qiao Shouyi called: "Luzao, my reserves have been used up, and I can't be responsible for running out of ammunition and food." ”

Rao Xihua knew very well that the situation on the battlefield was extremely critical at this time. If the Mazifeng position is lost, our army retreats back, and the army takes advantage of the situation to attack, then the plan to encircle and annihilate the Guoqiden Brigade of the Yue Army will be completely defeated.

At this time, Rao Xihua himself was exhausted and anxious, and the reinforcements behind him had not yet been organized, and the only way he could use was to verbally encourage Qiao Shouyi, and tell him to use the same method to encourage those soldiers who were in the collapsed fortifications and were bombarded to hold on to the end until the end of the fight.

At this critical juncture, Rao Xihua, who had not rested for a few days, was exhausted and couldn't support it, he turned to Tao Jingsun, the political training officer next to him, and said, "You can command for me!" ”

Tao Jingsun, who was also anxious, was inexplicable for a while, and said: "You can't be a commander, how can I do it?" ”

Unexpectedly, Rao Xihua said:

"I know that those people below them usually admire your propaganda of 'victory in the War of Resistance', and they also have a lot of faith in you, so you can take charge of the command for me." After saying this, Rao Xihua didn't care about the consultant's reaction, he fell on the sleeping chair, his eyes closed, and the snoring sounded!

As the commander of the first brigade, Rao Xihua, who has always been in command on the front line, is really too tired and tired!
