Chapter 301: Two Messages
readx; Dalian and Wafangdian nearby;
A bright moon illuminates the dark night, and even without using any lighting tools, you can see a large area in front of you, even if even a dog runs in front of you, you can't rely on the cover of the night to hide your body. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Li Changjun sat on a piece of grass, threw the rifle in his hand aside, and grabbed his boots directly with both hands.
They had just passed through a swamp, but it wasn't quite a swamp, at most it was a large puddle of silt, and if a person sank into it, he would at most bury his knees, and he would not directly swallow his entire body. Although the night was bright, they could not see what was ahead until they entered.
Now that they had arrived at the predetermined place according to the regulations, Li Changjun's class was arranged in the middle, that is, the class that was temporarily resting, and an hour later, they had to replace other classes.
Taking advantage of this effort, Li Changjun didn't have time to dry his clothes, so he could only pour out the water in his shoes, and then take off his clothes and twist them a little to wring out the water as much as possible.
"Warm up with two sips?"
Suddenly, a soldier sat next to Li Changjun, his body was also wet, but he only poured out the water in his shoes, and did not take off his clothes.
"Thank you!"
Li Changjun unceremoniously took the kettle, opened it and poured it directly into his mouth.
When the first bite entered his mouth, Li Changjun suddenly felt that something was not quite right, and when he reacted, he had swallowed it into his stomach.
"Is this wine?"
Li Changjun looked at the soldier in surprise and said in a low voice.
According to the rules, it is not allowed to drink alcohol during combat, even in peacetime, it is rarely allowed to drink, and it seems that alcohol prohibition has become a common thing in the army, but at this time, the soldier took out the wine, and he did not shy away from giving it to himself directly.
Does he dare to disobey military discipline? Or is the Ninety-ninth Army not at all what the outside world rumores, and its management is not so strict at all? Thinking of this, Li Changjun even felt as if he had been fooled, although he had no ability in his life, he also knew that strict management could only win the battle.
Drinking on the battlefield, to put it bluntly, this is looking for death, the enemy may run behind you at any time, and you are dizzy, what are you talking about fighting?
"Boy, although we are forbidden to drink, but that is also depending on the time, like this case, if you don't drink wine to warm up, it won't take too long, at most in the second half of the night you will catch a cold, and then there will be a fever, where will you go to war then? On the other hand, if you take a sip of wine to keep your body warm, your clothes will dry faster, and by the time the heat in your body is gone, your clothes will be almost dry. ā
The soldier smiled, patiently explained to Li Changjun, and immediately snatched the kettle from Li Changjun's hand, poured a big mouthful directly into his mouth, and swallowed it beautifully.
"Although the wine is good, but you can't drink too much, otherwise it will delay things, a sip of wine is not enough to make you insane, but it can make you not feel too cold for an hour or two, okay, rest."
The soldier only took a sip of wine, then screwed the lid hard, and after telling Li Changjun to rest, he turned around and stood up.
"You're ......!"
Li Changjun suddenly felt that this voice was a little familiar, and he couldn't remember who it was for a while, but when he spoke for the second time just now, Li Changjun recognized it at once.
Isn't this the old soldier in the teahouse? At that time, Li Changjun still felt that he was deliberately concealing it, and he said that they were so mysterious that he had a willingness to join.
But when he joined the airborne division, he found that in fact, as the veteran said, their surnames are indeed very special, and they also need to be kept secret, otherwise everyone knows that you have airborne troops, and people have already begun to guard against you before the war starts, so what else are you fighting?
After recognizing the veteran, Li Changjun stood up excitedly and stared at the veteran's back.
"Haha, boy, I told you we might be fighting together."
The veteran didn't seem too excited, just turned his head and laughed twice, and then walked away.
And Li Changjun didn't have the slightest resentment at this time, although drinking was wrong, drinking alcohol was not necessarily no good, just like drinking a sip of wine every day is good for the body.
And their current situation, it seems that in addition to drinking to solve it, the only way to change is to change a set of clothes, but after all, this is on the battlefield, who has nothing to do on the battlefield and still carry a quilt with a few sets of clothes? It's better to bring a few more bullets with that effort.
"Company commander, how's it going?"
When a lieutenant officer saw a captain approaching, he hurriedly stood up and asked.
An hour ago, they arrived here, and half an hour ago, the battalion commander suddenly notified the company-level cadres to hold a meeting, and at this time a battlefield meeting was held, and the specific content could be figured out with their toes, it must be that the little devil is coming, or there is some latest military information.
Even their platoon commanders could not stop the futile speculation of the soldiers who had been privately speculating for a long time, because everyone was anxious to know the latest information.
For them who are on the battlefield for the first time, nothing is more important than the enemy's situation, although there are veterans of war among them, but it is the first time for everyone to fight in the air.
Without the support of artillery and tanks, they can only resist with their own bodies and rifles in their hands in the face of all enemies, and even before that, they can't imagine what kind of battle scene they will encounter next.
"Two good news, one bad news."
Fang Yu looked at his several platoon commanders and frowned deeply, because he knew very well that after this battle, it was still unknown how many soldiers he could have.
"The good news is that the eastern, central, and western armies have successfully encircled the main forces of the Kwantung Army near Xinjing, and have broken through their two lines of defense, and it is expected that the battle will be over within a week, and they will be able to reach us in ten days at the latest, during which the surface ships of the Air Force and Navy will support us every day."
Fang Yu said a good news first, but this good news was also bad news for them.
The appearance of the three-way army here in ten days at the latest means that before that, they need to be nailed here for at least ten days, and during these ten days, they need to withstand every attack of the enemy.
"The second good news is that from tomorrow, the troops on the line from Yingkou to Dandong will start to attack, and it is not clear when they will be on our side."
Fang Yu then said the second good news.
"Company commander, what about the bad news?"
The lieutenant who had spoken out earlier hurriedly asked, the good news had no effect at all for these airborne troops who were born to be surrounded, the only thing they cared about was bad news, good news may not be able to help them, but bad news can kill them.
"The bad news is that the Navy has just discovered a large number of ships in the Yellow Sea, and there are a large number of transport ships, and the submarines will look for opportunities to strike at them, but the submarines will not be able to carry out a full-scale strike against them, and if it goes well, one-fifth of the fleet will not be able to reach here.
However, it is predicted that there will be at least four divisions on the transport ship, and our task is to hold the defensive line and prevent any devils from passing through here before the main force of the army arrives here. ā
Fang Yu said with some confusion.
This is clearly a mission to die for a lifetime, or all of them, but there is no way, who made them paratroopers? Apart from them, now the Ninety-ninth Army simply has no other troops to call on.
All sides are fighting, and no one has the ability to step out to help others, even the marines have been transferred to the front line of Yingkou, let alone these paratroopers?
Fighting a war is a task, even if it is death, they have no regrets, but let them fight such a desperate battle, although they won't say much on the surface, but deep down, they are still a little uncomfortable.
However, the soldiers regard it as their duty to carry out orders, and although they find it very unpleasant, no one will disobey the orders of the upper peak, because based on the experience of many battles, everyone is also convinced that the military headquarters will not just leave them here and ignore them.
Even the four captured pilots did not hesitate to send special forces to the rescue, and no one believed that Su Dao would throw a force of more than 30,000 people here to send them to death.
'Shhh ā
Several officers gasped.
Before the support troops arrived, they held their positions and did not allow the troops to pass a single step.
If they are still sure now, but there are still four divisions and regiments behind them, and more than 30,000 people against six divisions and 1560,000 troops is not to destroy their own morale and increase the prestige of others, but they really don't believe that they will resist so many troops.
If there is artillery support, they still have some hope, but now, even the machine gun is at least half less than the army unit of the airborne troops, although equipped with MP40 submachine guns, but that guy is completely bullet-eating, who has no medicine on his body is not enough for them to squander.
The ammunition carried by a person is at most about the same as repelling two or three enemy attacks, and the rifleman is slightly better, although the bullet is also very fast, but it is not worth mentioning compared to the submachine gun.
They also know what the problem is now, everything is in terms of logistics and supply, if the logistics troops can ensure that their ammunition is enough at any time, then it is not impossible to hold the position, but once the supply cannot keep up, the consequences will be unimaginable. (To be continued.) )
