In a courtyard in the middle of the village, Zhao Jichang, the commander of the sixth company of the third battalion of the 1084th regiment of the 183rd division, sat on a stone mill, gasped for breath, untied the bamboo tube on his waist, pulled out the plug, and drank water. He fought for hours on end, repelled an enemy charge, and then took advantage www.biquge.info of the break between battles to rest.

Next to him stood a long row of Shen Feihu, holding a Burmese knife in a huff, which was still dripping with red blood.

The two of them wore French-style steel helmets, the blue sky and white sun cockades on them were stained with dust, they wore yellow cotton military uniforms, smoke and fire everywhere, leggings on their calves, and their feet were wearing Yunnan's unique pointed and tripping cloth shoes, which were already tattered.

"Company commander, what kind of battle do you say we are fighting? Obviously, he was fighting with Tang Enbo's army, but as a result, none of his soldiers saw it, and the devils rushed over overwhelmingly. Yesterday, Brigade Commander Chen led the guards out of the village to contact the defense, and as soon as he left the village, he ran into the enemy, but fortunately, the guard platoon desperately covered and Brigade Commander Chen safely withdrew to the village. Chen Feihu complained angrily.

"Chief Li should have known that there was no national army ahead, but he didn't tell us. He was worried about the cowardice of our Dian army. Zhao Jichang said.

"Are we scared? Joke! Shen Feihu shouted, "Our Yunnan army was indeed not very good before, and we were called the two sheep of the Yunnan army and the Guizhou army by Hongjun. However, since Chairman Long received the order to resist the war, we have not fought a civil war, but a foreign war, and the morale of the brothers has naturally increased. Yesterday, almost the entire battalion of Yin Guohua's battalion was killed in battle, which proves that our Dian army is not a sheep, but a tiger like my name. ”

mentioned Yin Guohua, Zhao Jichang's heart sank. Yin Guohua was the commander of the second battalion of the 1081 Regiment, who first came into contact with the devil in Chen Wafang, and led the officers and soldiers of the whole battalion to fight with the Japanese army, with more than 500 people in the battalion, and only one survived in the end.

"Besides, since Chairman Long reorganized the army, our Yunnan army has been equipped, except for heavy artillery and field artillery, and machine guns and mountain artillery, which are no worse than little devils. Who's afraid of whom? Shen Feihu said movingly.

"Hey, the Japanese devils are really not easy to fight. There were so many shells that they killed one by one. Oh, how is my cousin's side? ”

His cousin was Zhao Ke, the commander of the first company, also known as Zhao Shihan and Zhao Dang, who was also fighting with the enemy in the Five Saints Church at this time.

Shen Feihu listened to the northwest corner of Zhao Ke's defense and said, "Listen, the battle is still fierce. ”

Zhao Jichang frowned. He was very worried about his cousin, knowing that he had a stubborn personality, and this time he encountered a heavy army of devils, and he was more than lucky.

Zhao Jichang said: "You also quickly sit down and take a breath." ”

Shen Feihu sat down, put the Burmese knife on the grinding plate, grabbed Zhao Jichang's bamboo tube, and took a sip of water.

Bang bang bang bang The two quickly stood up, drew their guns and knives. The other resting soldiers in the courtyard also quickly rushed to the combat position.

"Company commander, come and see, a hero!" The soldier in charge of the guard at the head of the gun shouted.

Zhao Jichang and Shen Feihu hurriedly ran over, climbed the ladder, and leaned on the wall to observe, both of them couldn't help but widen their eyes.

In the smoke of gunpowder, a young major general of the Nationalist Army straightened his back, walked leisurely, walked down the street, and shot at the sides and behind him from time to time, with a shell gun in one hand. As soon as the hidden devil showed his head, he was hit in the nose, and a bloody arrow spurted out, screaming miserably, and he fell to the sky.

A few minutes later, not a single devil dared to show his head.

Suddenly, a devil's grenade roared behind the major general. Zhao Jichang and Shen Feihu both shouted in fright: "Get out of the way, there are grenades!" ”

The Major General suddenly turned sideways, put the gun back into the holster with his right hand, raised his hand to grab the grenade and threw it back.

Boom, the grenade exploded in the air, shrapnel flew in all directions, and the devil and his companion who threw the grenade were hit, and the flesh and blood flew sideways, wailing.

Zhao Jichang and Shen Feihu glanced at each other, and they both saw great shock in each other's eyes, is this young master still human?

"Okay, kill the little devil!"

"The major general is mighty!"

The onlookers leaned out of the wall and applauded loudly.

The major general put his left pistol back into the holster, slowly came to the wall, and looked at Zhao Jichang and Shen Feihu with a smile.

Zhao Jichang stood up straight, raised his hand and saluted, and said: "Zhao Jichang, the commander of the 6th Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 1084th Regiment of the 183rd Division of the 60th Army, paid a visit to the Major General. Dare to ask the Major General ......" said at the end, and there was a lot of doubt in his words. Someone came to him, Zhao Jichang saw it very clearly, his face was immature, he was obviously a young man, at most eighteen years old, how could he wear a major general's uniform, and how could he be so heroic?

"Major General Ben Long Xiaotian!" Long Xiaotian said as he took out his documents and handed them over.

Shen Feihu took it first, verified it carefully, handed the certificate to Zhao Jichang, and whispered, "Really." ”

Zhao Jichang checked it, saluted again, and said, "Please ask Major General Long to speak in the courtyard." ”

Shen Feihu jumped to the ground, opened the courtyard door, and stuck to Long Xiaotian's side, looking up and down.

"Platoon Commander Shen, you lead people to wipe out the enemy outside first!" Zhao Jichang ordered.

Shen Feihu happily agreed, waved his hand, and said, "One row, follow me!" The Dian army rushed out.

Zhao Jichang invited Long Xiaotian into the courtyard, and Long Xiaotian sat on the grinding plate and said, "Bring me some tea!" ”

Zhao Jichang ran into the main room, took out a porcelain bowl, poured water, respectfully placed it on the grinding plate, and said, "Please drink tea from Major General Long!" "Replace tea with water, and there is no time to boil water at this time.

Long Xiaotian was really thirsty, took the bowl and drank it all, put down the bowl, but straightened his face and reprimanded: "Company Commander Zhao, will your Yunnan army fight?" ”

Zhao Jichang was stunned.

"I just arrived from the 46th Army. Look at how people fight. First of all, it is necessary to dig good fortifications, and dig a large number of skirmish trenches to facilitate evasion from enemy artillery fire, concealment of troops, and transportation of troops. Long Xiaotian knocked on the table and said.

Zhao Jichang's face was full of grievances. If he hadn't seen Long Xiaotian's spear just now, even if he faced the major general, Zhao Jichang would be dissatisfied, but he was impressed and explained carefully: "Major General Long, we received an order from Chief Li yesterday to take over the defense with the Tang Enbo Legion, but I didn't expect that when we came here, there was no one in the Tang Legion, and the devils poured over, this is an encounter, how can we have time to repair the fortifications!" ”

"Hmph." Long Xiaotian snorted heavily, "I knew that Li Zongren was a fool and commanded indiscriminately. I told him a long time ago that the devil had more troops attacking this time than last time, and he didn't believe it. thought that he had won a big victory in Taierzhuang, so he cocked his tail. How did he know the secret of his victory, if it weren't for me, ......" Saying this, Long Xiaotian stopped abruptly and saw Zhao Jichang with a look of surprise.

Long Xiaotian waved his hand and said, "Oh, you are just a small company commander, I won't tell you, you don't understand if you say too much." Where is Luján? I taught him how to fight! ”

Zhao Jichang opened his mouth wide in surprise, his chin was about to fall, staring at Long Xiaotian, why are you so arrogant!

At this moment, a buzzing sound came from the sky. Four 97 bombers flew into the Five Churches.

"Ask Major General Long to take shelter in the house." Zhao Jichang said anxiously.

"Don't be afraid, it's okay to follow me. Go and bring me a bowl of water. Long Xiaotian said lightly. Zhao Jichang was helpless, and glanced at the two guards beside him. Two guards hurriedly guarded Long Xiaotian's side.

Boom, the bomb screamed and fell, and suddenly the house collapsed, the wall collapsed, the dust rose, the fire soared, and the hit Dian army screamed.

Immediately afterward, rows of shells whizzed into the village, rumbling and exploding.

Listening to the bomb exploding in the courtyard next to him, Long Xiaotian stood still. At this time, Shen Feihu had also driven the enemy back, and dozens of people automatically surrounded Long Xiaotian.

While drinking water, Long Xiaotian was talking about how to dig skirmishers and tunnels, and people listened to it with relish and nodded frequently.

After a while, Long Xiaotian suddenly stood up and stopped drinking: "All of them, run with me!" ”

Zhao Jichang was stunned for a moment, followed silently, and the others followed Long Xiaotian and ran out quickly.

After running out a hundred meters, Long Xiaotian stopped, turned around and looked at the small courtyard, and everyone also looked back. Whirring, two shells whistled and exploded, and the small courtyard that had been intact just now became a ruined and broken ridge.

Everyone was stunned, and they all looked at Long Xiaotian, their eyes full of awe, excitement and curiosity.
