Chapter 139: Saving Grace
In the face of the devil and withdrawing without fighting, Sun Dianying can't do this kind of thing. Beat! It doesn't matter if he can beat him, let's fight first! Sun Dianying was aroused by the devil to be unruly in his heart, and with an order, the troops of the New Fifth Army rushed forward from the front against the devils of the 15th Division!
Sun Dianying fought with the devils on the other side of the river, and Gao Quan on the river side was not idle, before the water flooded more than a thousand devils, he let the first batch of devils of the 15th Division go ashore! More than 1,000 devils were approaching his position, and Gao Quan was in a good position, ready to have a good fight with this group of devils who had crossed the river.
When fighting with the Yamaguchi United, Gao Quan took the reconnaissance detachment to carry out the task of harassing the enemy, and this time in the face of this devil brigade that had just crossed the river, Gao Quan was ready to rely on the position dug by the sappers to fight this group of devils from the front.
Now on the position of our army, except for the companies that Gao Quan brought out from Quzhou City, the rest are Cao Bao and his sappers. The purpose of the sappers is to repair bridges, pave roads, and fortifications, and until the critical moment, Gao Quan does not plan to let these construction professionals use guns.
"Cao Bao, continue to take your sappers to repair the fortifications and build them strong, without my order, no one in the engineer regiment is allowed to participate in the battle!"
"Yes!" How can the orders of the military seat not be carried out? The engineer commander agreed, turned and directed his men to concentrate on building the trenches. Unlike ordinary soldiers, the trenches deepened and lengthened at a speed visible to the naked eye, and it didn't take long for this semi-circular fortification with deep positions to take shape.
The devil is here, so what else is there to say? Hit! The company commander in the trench gave an order, and the gunfire on the position of our army was loud! The Japanese soldiers fell down and returned fire, guns were rounded, and the two sides officially exchanged hands in front of the position.
These devils of the 15th Division came prepared. Yamauchi Masafumi was also afraid that these men armed with light weapons would be eaten by the superior strength of the Chinese army as soon as they crossed the river, so before crossing the river, the commander of the Yamauchi Division specially equipped his first batch of vanguard troops to cross the river with powerful individual weapons. Grenadier canisters, light machine guns, and grenades, these high-powered individual light weapons were originally equipped with a lot in the Japanese army, and in order to increase the firepower of his vanguard beach-grabbing troops, Yamauchi Masafumi doubled these high-power weapons on the original basis! Yamauchi Masafumi knew that there was already a Japanese wing on the other side of the river in trouble, and he didn't want this unit of the 15th Division to follow the old path of the Yamaguchi Wing again!
These more than 1,000 devils put their weapons away, and Gao Quan's side is a little tight! It's not that the weapons can't do it, Gao Quan's guard company is also equipped with automatic firearms such as submachine guns and box guns, and in terms of quantity, it is more than the number of the devil's Type 96 light machine guns. But the problem is that these weapons are all melee weapons, and they can't compare to the devil's light machine guns in terms of power and range. Especially after the devils were equipped with a large number of grenadiers, our army's defense was even more inferior.
"Throne, let the sappers get on!" Cao Bao wore a steel helmet and ran to Gao Quan's side with his waist and shouted to fight.
"On what? Send all the sappers to the battlefield, who will dig the trenches for me? Who will build the dam for me? Stay where it's cool, don't delay me here! Gao Quan pushed Cao Bao and pushed the engineer commander back several steps.
Cao Bao just wanted to speak again, Biao Zi stretched out his foot coldly, and inserted his left foot between Cao Bao's feet and gently parted, Cao Bao's center of gravity was immediately unstable, and his two hands pulled both sides twice and didn't catch anything, "Poof!" A butt crouched down to the ground, and there was a small dirt stump right in the middle of the buttocks, "Uh! "At this moment, I almost didn't get the tears of the engineer commander out!
"You, you!" Cao Bao pointed at Biaozi with tears in his eyes, he really didn't expect this person to make a trick without even saying hello! How can we say that we are also a soldier? As for you? Gao Quan looked at the two of them suspiciously, and he didn't know what was wrong with the two of them.
Biao Zi didn't speak, but stretched out his right index finger and pointed at Cao Bao's head. Cao Bao looked back in wonder, and the cold sweat came out at that time! I saw that there was a row of three gun holes on the top of the trench earthen wall behind him! What else can shoot such a neat three gun holes at the same time, except for a machine gun? Thinking about the position he was standing just now, in addition to squatting down, Cao Bao would inevitably eat bullets no matter which way he hid! And the height of these three bullets is exactly at the level of his chest!
"Brother Biao, don't say anything, my brother remembers your love!" Cao Bao hugged his fist towards Biaozi, his face was a little red. He misunderstood people just now, who knew that Biao Zi's kick just now actually saved his life! What kind of love is more important than the grace of saving lives? So what else to say, just remember this kindness for the rest of your life!
"Hehe, it's a common thing, Captain Cao doesn't have to worry too much." Biaozi grinned, looking nonchalant. Also, it is common for each other to save each other's lives on the battlefield, even if he himself doesn't know how many times he has been saved by Gao Quan!
"Okay, don't pretend to be sympathetic there. Cao Bao, hurry back and command your sappers! I'll let you know if you need sappers to fight in the future! If you don't have an order, you will take the sappers to repair your fortifications! ”
When Cao Bao and Biao Zi were heroes cherishing heroes, Gao Quan suddenly came to such a bad scene, Cao Bao Biaozi and the two glanced at each other, and they all looked at Gao Quan in surprise, the military seat was not so unreasonable before, what happened today?
"Tell me about you, the commander of the engineer corps! You see that you dug this trench, so much water can't be drained out, so that the soldiers soak in the puddle to fight, you are derelict in your duty, you know? The soldiers have to dodge the bullets of the devils above, and they have to endure the discomfort of soaking their feet in muddy water below, you say you ......"
Gao Quan pointed to Cao Bao's nose and counted down, and lowered his head and was speechless when the engineer corps commander said. It turned out that Commander Gao was dissatisfied with himself soaking in a puddle. As he spoke, Gao Quan suddenly stopped his mouth, half of his words were stuck, Cao Bao waited for two seconds and didn't hear the following, and quickly looked up, and saw Gao Quan looking down at the stagnant water under his feet in a daze, his eyes were a little distracted, and he didn't know what he was thinking.
Hey? Could it be that the military seat made the gas go wrong? Or did you get sick from the rain for days? Cao Bao chuckled in his heart, his eyes looked straight at Gao Quan for a few seconds, and when he saw that Gao Quan was still staring at the puddle and didn't speak, Cao Bao turned his heart sideways, and reached out to test Gao Quan's head with a trembling rope.
"Smack!" Gao Quanyi opened Cao Bao's hand, "What do you want to do, stinky boy?" Lao Tzu is not dead yet, what are you fussing around? Glaring at Cao Bao angrily, the engineer commander scratched his head and smiled embarrassedly, "Cao Bao, bring a few people over and dig a one-meter-and-five-deep pit for me here!" Gao Quan pointed to a puddle at his feet.
