On the highway, minefields.

A devil sapper carefully peeled off the soft dirt and finally saw a "steel needle".

Around the needle, there's a ring of serrated steel rings, doesn't this thing look like a landmine?

"What is this?" The devil sapper lowered his head in some confusion to take a closer look, but the jagged steel ring snapped up and grabbed his nose at once, which was clamped hard enough, and directly crushed the nose bridge of the devil sapper, and the devil soldier immediately covered his face with both hands and howled like a pig.

Almost at the same time, the other two devil sappers also wailed bitterly.

When the hands of the two devil soldiers were withdrawn from the ground, Huo Ran also clamped the mousetrap on the ten fingers of both hands, needless to say, the ten fingers of the two devil soldiers must be abolished, and it is estimated that they will have to return to China after recovering from their injuries, but in the long run, this is not a bad thing, at least the lives of the two devils are saved.

…………

It is said that the army's reading power is mixed into the headquarters of the 8th Brigade.

Without warning, the armoured command vehicle, which was slowly moving forward, stopped again.

Segawa Shiro raised his wrist and looked at his watch, the time was close to ten o'clock in the morning, but the troops had only moved forward for less than twenty miles, at this rate, it was estimated that they would not be able to catch up with Qinghe County before dark!

"Yagayalu." Yoshida Minetaro got up and was about to get out of the car.

"Yoshida-kun, don't be impatient." Segawa Shiro waved his hand and said, "Akama is enough." ”

Yoshida Fengtaro sat down angrily, and then the car door opened, and a staff officer ran outside the car, and suddenly retracted his feet and said: "General, the forward troops have encountered a minefield, and the engineer team is clearing mines, but the people of Shina are very cunning, and it is expected that it will take at least two hours to complete the demining!" ”

"Hmm, got it." Segawa Shiro said indifferently, "Order the troops and rest in place." ”

Yoshida Minetaro instructed again: "The flanker troops should be on alert. ”

"Hello." The young staff officer bowed his head suddenly, and immediately took the order.

Seeing the figure of the young staff officer disappear, Yoshida Fengtaro was still angry and said: "These lowly people have never dared to duel with the imperial army in a dignified manner, but will only do some stealing and touching dogs!" ”

Segawa Shiro said indifferently: "This is the consistent trick of the Shina people on the battlefield behind enemy lines, but no matter how much they toss, it is impossible for them to cause too much loss to the Imperial Army, and the only thing they can gain is only to delay the time, relying on these means, it will never be possible to change the trend and outcome of the war." ”

"Hello." Yoshida Minetaro bowed his head abruptly and said, "It's me who is reckless." ”

At that moment, the two of them didn't say anything more and waited silently in the armored car.

The wait was more than two hours, and at noon, the troops finally embarked on the journey again.

Two hours later, however, the troops stopped again, and this time even Shiro Segawa was a little impatient.

Soon, the communications staff officer ran to the door, closed his feet outside the car window and said uprightly: "General, Hechuan Shaozo reports that a large number of armed forces have been found in Chuiyang Town, with at least one regiment of troops!" ”

"A regiment?" Shiro Segawa bowed his head slightly.

Yoshida Minetaro said: "Order the major teams, prepare for battle!" ”

"Hello." The communications staff officer bowed his head suddenly, and immediately took the order.

…………

Chuiyang Town, western suburbs.

The position of the 1st Battalion and 1st Company of the 1st Regiment of the Baoshan Brigade.

The commander of the 1st Company, "Lao La," was an old Sichuan soldier with six years of military experience, who was half-lying in the trenches smoking dry tobacco, while more than 150 officers and men of the company were nervously digging trenches and repairing fortifications.

When Lao Lao was swallowing clouds and spitting out fog, the guard suddenly shouted in horror: "The devil is coming, the devil is coming......

Suddenly, more than 100 recruits who were busy digging trenches and repairing fortifications threw away their sapper shovels or hoes, turned around and picked up rifles, broadswords, or spears, and then rushed to the communication trench in a chaotic manner.

The elder of the 1st Company, La, was still half-lying in the trench and did not get up.

The old spicy guard was also a recruit, and said in a panic: "Company commander, the little devil is up!" ”

"What's the panic?" The old spicy horn took a puff of smoke and said angrily, "Lao Tzu hasn't finished smoking yet." ”

Lao Ra was calm and composed, but his guards were already so nervous that their hearts were about to pop out of their chests, and when they lay on the trench and looked out, they saw that the black devil soldiers had pressed up from the front, and when they were still about seven or eight hundred meters away from the position of the 1st Company, the devil soldiers suddenly fell to the ground one after another.

The front of the two armies suddenly became extremely silent, a breathless silence!

Lao Lai, who was half-lying in the trench smoking dry cigarettes, suddenly jumped up, and immediately opened his throat and shouted: "It's a cannon, the little devil is going to shoot, everyone quickly hide in the anti-artillery hole, hurry!" ”

Without waiting for the old spicy reminder, the two dozen veterans had already instigated into the anti-artillery hole.

However, because of excessive nervousness, the 100 or so Xinmin eggs were obviously a little dazed, and when they heard the order of the company commander, they didn't react at once, only a few clever ones hid in the anti-artillery hole, and one of the two stunned people didn't hear clearly because they were far away, and they actually stood up from the foxhole stupidly.

"Boom, Boom, ......Boom, Boom" A terrible scream swept through the air.

In the deafening explosion of "boom, boom, boom, boom......", more than a dozen huge clouds of smoke and dust suddenly rose into the air.

The second stunned man who had just stood up from the foxhole was directly torn in two by the air wave generated by the explosion, and the half below the waist spun and flew out more than ten meters away, and landed in front of the old guard with a loud click, and the guard's eyes suddenly widened, and then he screamed loudly in horror, and then straightened up and turned around and ran.

"Get down, get down!" Lao La's eyes were split, "You pig! ”

But the guards turned a deaf ear, still holding their heads in their hands, and ran wildly backwards.

Another terrible scream swept through the air, Lao La's face suddenly changed, and he jumped and threw the guard to the ground, almost at the same time as Lao Lao knocked down the guard, a grenade had fallen a few meters away, and then exploded, and the huge explosion suddenly rolled up the mud and sand, and in an instant, it covered Lao La and the guard with a thick layer.

When the guards struggled to get up, they found that the company commander who was pressing on him was already out of breath.

"Company commander!" The guards were immediately shocked, and when they looked closely, they found that Lao La's back and neck had been cut by shrapnel several huge blood grooves, and the neck wound was particularly fatal, almost cutting off Lao La's neck entirely, and a head had been softly drooped down.

"The company commander is dead, the company commander is dead!"

The guard sat down on the ground with a frightened face, and then staggered backwards with his feet kicking back.

Soon, the guard's terrible screams spread throughout the entire position, and the recruits, who were already nervous and about to suffocate, suddenly exploded: "The company commander was blown up, and this battle can't be fought!" "Run, brethren, don't hold on." "Mom, I'm going home, I don't want to be a soldier......"

At this time, the two dozen or so veterans couldn't sit still.

"Don't panic, don't fucking panic!"

"Lie down, all for Lao Tzu to lie down......"

"Don't run, run again, Lao Tzu will shoot!"

The company deputy and several veteran platoon commanders yelled one after another, trying to stop the decline.

However, everything is irreparable, and the more than 100 recruits have been frightened, and they turned around and ran away with their heads in their hands, no matter how the veterans drank behind them, they couldn't stop.

The shelling stopped, and the devil soldiers on the opposite side of the position launched an attack.

When the shelling just now, the devil infantry had already bullied within 200 meters, and in less than half a minute, at least one squadron of devil soldiers had already rushed to the position of the 1st company.

The remaining two dozen veterans hurriedly loaded their bayonets and jumped out of the trenches.

The No. 10 rout crawled and fled to the position of the 2nd company, only to stop under the threat of machine guns, and when he turned back, he saw that more than 20 veterans of the 1st company had started a tragic white-knuckle battle with the No. 100 devil soldiers who rushed to the position.

"Little devil, I say that your eighteenth generation ancestor, go and die!"

A badly wounded veteran did not hesitate to pull a grenade, and then lunged at one of the ghost soldiers.

With a loud bang, the veteran soldier and the devil soldier were suddenly lifted into the air, and when they fell again, the two of them were already bloody and indistinguishable.

In the position of the 2nd Company, many of the defeated soldiers suddenly shuddered violently.

A few of the defeated soldiers who were still a little bloody clenched their steel teeth in an instant, and their originally frightened eyes suddenly became firm, and the expressions on their faces were not so panicked.

In less than a moment, there was only one veteran left on the 1st Company's position.

A dozen devil soldiers smirked and came up from all sides with bayonets.

A devil lieutenant took two steps forward and stabbed with a knife, the cold light flashed, and the sharp saber had pierced into the abdomen of the last veteran, the veteran suddenly opened his big mouth, and screamed extremely miserably, and the red blood immediately overflowed from his mouth, but the next moment, the veteran rushed forward extremely fiercely and bit down on the neck of the devil lieutenant.

"Ah......" The second lieutenant of the devil was suddenly bitten, and immediately wailed like a pig.

More than a dozen devil soldiers stabbed indiscriminately, and the veteran's vest was instantly stabbed into a sieve.

However, the veteran opened his eyes wide, biting the neck of the devil lieutenant and not letting go, the devil lieutenant wailed miserably for more than ten seconds, and then died with a crooked head, and when the devil soldiers separated the bodies of the two with their hands and feet, they found that half of the devil's neck had been bitten off by the [***] veteran.

In the 2nd Company position, the corners of the mouths of many of the defeated soldiers suddenly began to twitch violently.

The performance of the veterans gave the defeated soldiers a great shock, it turned out that these veterans did not brag, they were really not afraid of death!

"See? Have you seen them all? The 2nd company commander's eyes were red, and he stared murderously at the defeated and fleeing soldiers, and roared with great anger, "Soldiers! Don't forget that you are soldiers, you are medium [***] people! You have to be worthy of this military uniform, if you are a man, don't pretend to be cowardly to Lao Tzu! ”
