Heizi said: "Li Tou was a little unlucky, he was shot, and now it is estimated that he has been carried back to the battalion headquarters!" ”

Han Duotian didn't continue to ask after hearing this, when the second row suffered a sudden blow just now, the first Peng where he was the enemy's focus object, and the casualties in the second row also occurred in the first Peng, at that time, Han Duotian was also stunned, and only cared about crawling into the ditch in front of him, where he could take care of seeing who was injured behind him!

"In addition to Li Tou, there is also the third brother, Ah Lin was also injured and carried to the back!"

Han Duotian listened while looking at the people in front of him and behind him, and after a long time, he suddenly spoke: "Where is the big tiger?" ”

Kuroko lowered his head: "He's dead!" ”

Han Duotian's face was dark when he heard this, and he burst out after a long time: "Damn! ”

Because when the Beiyang New Army recruited, it was common to organize people from the same place into a group, and many times the soldiers of a team were from the same county, the main reason here was that the Beiyang New Army often turned the recruits recruited from the same county or government directly into a team or a battalion during the founding period.

The advantage of this system is that the concentration of soldiers in the same place can give full play to the enthusiasm of soldiers to fight together, in addition to avoiding local dialects to cause obstacles to soldiers' communication, and of course, more importantly, it is conducive to the formation and training of the army in the early stage of the army.

As a result, the soldiers of the various units of the Beiyang New Army came from relatively fixed in certain prefectures and counties.

According to the distribution of the conscription areas of each unit within the Beiyang New Army, the conscription areas of the Third Mixed Association were originally only Zhili Zhengding Prefecture and Hejian Prefecture. However, due to the shortage of qualified soldiers in Zhili's long-term conscription guide zhì Zhili Province, Zhili also began to recruit troops in these three provinces after consulting with Shandong, Henan, and Shanxi provinces, such as the second town recently formed on a large scale in the Beiyang New Army, whose main source of troops came from Henan.

The Third Mixed Association has also been recruiting soldiers in Wuding and Tai'an in Shandong since this year.

That is to say, the soldiers of the Third Mixed Association mainly came from the two prefectures of Zhili Zhengding and Hejian, as well as the two prefectures of Wuding and Tai'an in Shandong. Not only did most of the recruits during the founding period come from these four prefectures, but the subsequent replenishment of troops will basically come from these places, and under normal circumstances, they will not go to other places to collect soldiers.

Because there are other Beiyang New Army troops recruiting in other places, it is impossible for several units in the Beiyang New Army to set up recruitment stations in the same prefecture and county, and they must be separated.

In addition, it is also to facilitate the distribution of salaries for soldiers in the army and the arrangements for being transferred to the reserve after discharge, as mentioned above, the military salary of Beiyang soldiers is divided into three parts, one of which is mailed directly to their families by the troops.

Taking the Third Mixed Association as an example, they have already spent a lot of personnel and funds to set up conscription stations in four prefectures and counties, and if they were to set up conscription stations and send relevant personnel throughout Zhili or Shandong, it would be impossible for the Third Mixed Association to afford.

Of course, this kind of distribution of conscription areas is only a private distribution of various units within the Beiyang New Army, and there is no official document stipulating these contents, which can be regarded as a tacit understanding between Beiyang bigwigs.

In this way, most of the soldiers in the third mixed association are from the same township, county, or even the same village, and it is very common to see several soldiers from the same village who grew up together in a shed.

The big tiger in Han Duotian's mouth is from the same village as Han Duotian, I think they still joined the army together, but I didn't expect to die here today.

However, Han Duotian didn't have much time to make him sad, and the sunspot next to him continued: "The platoon leader Xi at the back just said, let's keep the fire suppression on those bandits and cover them over!" ”

Han Duotian nodded: "Well, Kuroko and the four of you, go over there, everyone else will come with me, get ready for bullets!" ”

The main eye of the first peng, that is, the Li Tou in the mouth of Han Duotian and Heizi, has been injured, and the command of the first peng has naturally been taken over by Han Duotian, the deputy head, and now this first peng plus Han Duotian is left, and there are only ten people left, so it is just divided into two groups to suppress the fire on both sides.

Reloading the bullets, Han Duotian led the soldiers of the First Peng to lie on the ditch again, and then stretched out his guns to suppress the bandits behind the low wall three hundred meters away.

They shoot in the ditch much better than in the woods, first of all, they have a good line of sight, and the natural trench shelter makes them able to shoot with confidence, and when their fire is raised, the fire of the bandits who have just risen on the opposite side is weakened.

"Big Tiger, this is revenge for you!" Han Duotian was still shooting, muttering to himself, but he didn't have the same shouting and swearing as before.

As Han Duotian's first peng shot, the pressure on the bandits on the opposite side was even greater, and the density of firepower was once again sparse, at this time Xi Hezhi showed a burst of joy, the moment when he was even suppressed and unable to move had passed, and now it was time for them to attack.

With the command knife in his hand swinging again, the second peng on his right hand also began to run out quickly, jumping into the ditch before the bandits on the opposite side reacted.

When the second peng also entered the ditch to fight, the firepower network formed by the second row had made the bandits on the opposite side almost unacceptable, and at one time only the soldiers of the second row were shooting, and the bandits on the opposite side did not even have the firepower to counterattack.

At this time, Xi Hezhi naturally would not delay the fighter plane, and immediately personally led the remaining third Peng to rush into the ditch!

As soon as he jumped into the ditch, he saw Han Duotian, and then looked left and right up and down before nodding: "Han Duotian, this time you did a good job, I will repay you for your merits!" ”

At the beginning, although Han Duotian entered the ditch for self-protection, his continuous shooting after entering the ditch also caused several casualties to the bandits on the opposite side, and attracted a large amount of bandit firepower, which greatly reduced the pressure on the other people in the second row in the dwarf woods, so that Xi Hezhi could make adjustments and carry out tactical counterattacks.

From being suppressed to suppressing the enemy on his own side, Han Duotian played a role that was not small.

Han Duotian smiled, making his bloodstained face look a little terrifying.

Xi Hezhi didn't continue to be polite to Han Duotian, but said: "Now there are not many of those bandits who dare to take the lead, just keep the necessary suppression, and let your brothers not waste bullets!" ”

The battle between the second platoon and the bandits under the low wall on the opposite side had been going on for about half an hour, and in that short half hour, both sides were firing as many bullets as possible to suppress the enemy or counter-suppress.

In this process, the bullet consumption of the second row is very large, according to normal speaking, the bullets carried by the soldiers are enough for them to support a large-scale battle, because there are basically few soldiers in the battle who can carry nearly a hundred bullets to finish it, if the battle is very fierce in World War I, it is often impossible to shoot dozens of bullets, because before this you are either dead, or you have been defeated, or you have captured the enemy's position.

But today's battle between the second platoon and the bandits on the opposite side is somewhat special, it is not the usual offensive and defensive battle, but long-range shooting. In the cross-fire at a distance of more than 300 meters, the hit rate is relatively low, and in order to hit the enemy, it is natural that they can only use the number of exchanges, so the soldiers shoot very fast.

When Xi Hezhi ordered the other two sheds to provide suppressive fire for the nine soldiers in the first shed to cover their entry into the ditch, the soldiers used the rate of fire of the rifles in their hands to the limit, and shot at least several magazines in a short time.

This rate of fire is fast, and the duration is relatively long, and the second platoon has consumed most of the bullets after half an hour of fighting, and if it continues to fight like this, it is estimated that the bullets will have to run out.

In order to save bullets, the second platoon had already given up the method of directly suppressing it with a fire net, but they all lay on their stomachs and did not shoot much, and as soon as they saw that some bandits dared to emerge from the low wall, a few bullets immediately flew over.

And the hit rate has also increased a lot, as time passed, after waiting for about twenty minutes, there were no bandits on the side of the low wall, but Xi He knew that he didn't think that the bandits on the other side had run away, so he continued to let his subordinates keep them suppressed.

What he didn't know was that at this moment, under the low wall opposite, there were already piles of corpses, and the blood almost stained the land under the hundreds of meters of low wall red.

In addition to fighting relatively smoothly at the beginning, these bandits were suppressed by the second row on the opposite side in a few minutes, and the marksmanship and weapon level of the two sides were very different.

Playing with single-shot rear-loading guns and untrained bandits and the highly trained modern army equipped with new guns was not unjust.

After nearly an hour of fighting, the bandits of nearly 100 people were already dead and wounded, and because most of the heads were shot, once they were hit, they were killed, and there were few wounded.

Seeing that the brothers who drank wine, ate meat and played with women together in the past died one by one in front of their eyes, Rao is these people are all bandits who are not afraid of death, but it is inevitable that their morale will plummet, but in the end, they are the bandits who dare to fight hard with the Russian soldiers in Jilin, Fengtian, Jinzhou and other places, and the casualty rate has reached more than 30% and has not collapsed.

But even if they hadn't collapsed, they would only be hiding behind the low wall now, and they wouldn't dare to raise their heads to shoot.

However, just when they thought they could hide behind the low wall to be safe, suddenly there were two whistling sounds in the sky, this sound was a little strange, those bandits wondered in their hearts, where did the strange sound come from, but when they looked up one by one, they saw two small black dots falling from the sky, and some knowledgeable bandits were already shouting: "That's a cannonball!" ”
