Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Hall of the Heroes

Zhang Chuantang was so happy to see this obvious goal! He gave the enemy two shuttle machine gun bullets in a row. The enemy was timid and retracted his arms.

The assault continued violently, and the enemy, in an attempt to make a final struggle, reached out and threw grenades. The enemy yelled: "Damn, if you go crazy again, I'll destroy you!" ”

As a result, anger burned in Zhang Chuantang's heart. He got up and rushed into the circle of enemy bomb power with his machine gun in his hand, but he knew better that in such a dangerous situation, he had to not only destroy the enemy, but also save himself. He was observing the vantage ground with the red light of a grenade. In the red light, he saw that there was a position in front of him, which was a position to exert machine gun fire! He ran violently. Just as he rushed to the earth cliff, something unfortunate happened.

The front is not an earthen cliff, but a large ditch and a cliff that is more than a foot deep, and the enemy uses it as an outer trench to the east of the stronghold, but Zhang Chuantang is not familiar with the terrain and does not know.

Due to Zhang Chuantang's urgency, he fell into a deep ditch. In that moment of tension, he knew that he had fallen into the enemy's trench. So, the machine gunner said: "His grandmother's, even if I broke myself, I can't break the machine gun." ”

Thinking of this, Zhang Chuantang hurriedly hugged the machine gun in his arms. In the pile of rubbles that had been falling down the bottom of the ditch, the machine gun really did not break, and it quietly pressed on Zhang Chuantang's body. However, when Zhang Chuantang wanted to get up, he found that his left leg was broken and he couldn't stand up!

The battle was going on, and at the same time the enemy's grenades were also hitting the trench, but Zhang Chuantang did not shout, did not panic, he was still calmly thinking, thinking: "How to get the machine gun out?" How do you climb out of this abominable ditch? In the end, there was really no choice, so he clapped his hands gently (this is the contact mark prescribed for the night).

Wang Zhiyou, the deputy squad leader, heard it, and he slowly crawled over to the place where the comrades of the rifle group clapped, and slipped quietly down the bottom of the ditch with a rifle and approached Zhang Chuantang.

"Lao Wang, bring the machine gun well, my leg is broken." Zhang Chuantang relieved himself to explain the light machine gun to the deputy squad leader and instructed, "Comrades, the enemy keeps firing grenades into the ditch, you should leave this dangerous realm quickly!" Leave me alone! I'll get out! ”

What about the deputy squad leader and the comrades who are willing to leave their good squad leader? But he couldn't climb out of the trench with him on his back. The enemy's grenades are thrown again! The comrades had to leave their squad leaders and rush to the battlefield with tears.

Squad leader Zhang Chuantang finally dragged his broken leg, endured the pain, slowly crawled out of the danger zone from the bottom of the ditch of the rocky pile, slowly climbed out of the trench, and crawled back to the headquarters along the path.

The fifth squad leader of the first company of my sixth regiment, Hou Jiansan, is also nicknamed "Monkey", and the reason for this is that in addition to his surname "Hou", that is, his usual temperament and combat movements. In the battle of Shengshui in the Battle of Qiuli, he captured one light machine gun, seven shell guns and more than 20 rifles of the enemy with his bare hands. Now he is telling his comrades:

"When the platoon commander told me to rush, everyone was busy crossing the ditch, I saw that some climbed, some fell halfway down, some were kicking on the water, and some were drinking water, there were so many people, I thought no, so I ran a few steps north, just a log lying on the ditch, I saw it, I thought it was not troublesome to climb the obstacle to cross the single-plank bridge, is it still troublesome? I walked up boldly, and it really didn't take much trouble to pass. ”

"What happened then?" Song Jiliu asked.

"After I passed, there was a wooden village, and I climbed over it like an obstacle. Then, throwing a grenade or three, I ran to the turret, and I didn't know who was running over with a basket of bombs, and I thought badly! After the bomb was over, I thought to myself, I didn't care who he was, and then I took it again, I didn't speak, I took it all at once, what are you afraid of with a bomb? ”

"Haha! Right! Haha......" The comrade laughed when he heard this.

"By this time, our ladder had been erected. But when I looked, there were already two people up. I was in a hurry, so I threw the basket on my body and rushed up at once. On the turret, I fired bombs indiscriminately, and after a while the bombs ran out again, and I became anxious again, because my guns had already been used by other comrades, so how could I fight empty-handed? ”

"yes, what should I do?" The audience was also anxious to come in for him.

"But it so happened that the little 'improviser' messenger came, and when I went up, I grabbed the gun from his hand, and I said, 'Give it to me, and I will go down and fight the enemy!' His gun is his food guy, how can he give me the gun!? So he grabbed it with me, and he said, 'My gun is for the company commander, how can you take it?' I didn't take it for a long time, and I couldn't get it anymore, so I raised my fists and rushed up.

"Good! It's a man! Song Jiliu said.

"As soon as I got down there, a guy was trying to run, and I grabbed him by the neck and snatched the shell gun in one fell swoop. I was even more afraid of having a gun, so I went and shot as I went, and first went up to the hall to search, and the people inside hummed, and I shot a few more shots, and when I went in, I saw that there was no enemy. ”

"Good, good kill!" Xu Yun said.

"Who says it's not. So, I went to the gun tower in the northwest corner, where there was a hole in the ground, and many guys were drilling into it, and I ordered them to 'stop', and they were still drilling, and I was so angry that I threw the shell gun in my arms, and it was bad! Probably dumb fire, hugging again, still no sound, it turned out that this thing didn't hold many bullets, and I had already told me to finish the fight. ”

"Haha......" everyone laughed.

"Seeing that one by one they were getting in, I was in a hurry, and then there was only one guy left, and he was also holding a shell gun, and I went up and took it. I fired a few shots at the door, but the bullets were gone. I didn't care about three, seven, twenty-one, and ran down. ”

"Haha......" everyone laughed.

"Down, I knew that there were no bullets in the gun, and I would suffer if I worked hard. So, I went on the political offensive, and I said, 'Don't move!' You must surrender your guns well, the Eighth Route Army treats prisoners preferentially, don't worry that you won't kill you, those who are willing to resist Japan stay to resist Japan, and those who are willing to go home let you go with your family. As he spoke, one of the guys gave me a shell gun in one hand, and another guy in the other, and he handed me a shell gun in the same way. ”

"This time, your kid is rich!" Big Xu said with a smile.

"I was so happy that I put the two guns around my neck, and the other guys handed out the rifles one by one, and I told them to go out one by one, and there were no more of them, thenβ€”big guys, there were probably more than twenty! They also had to hand over the rifles, and I tried to get it lighter, so I said, 'Get the machine guns out!' One guy said, 'In there, in it.' I said, 'Hurry up, hurry up!' One guy handed one over. ”

"You're alone?" Reporter Wan Lihong asked with wide eyes.

"Yes. The guy handed me the machine gun first, and then the shuttle. I think that as long as I have a machine gun, my heart will be much easier! So, I said, 'Is there anything else?' They said: 'No.' I said, 'Something else!' Then three more shell guns were taken out, and I was overwhelmed! ”

"Yes, that's great!" Reporter Wan Lihong said.

"But the hole was small and dirty, and it gave me a headache, and I had a fever, and I couldn't stand dizzy. However, I understood in my heart, so I quickly leaned against the wall and called the people from outside in, and my comrades carried me out to the outside of the trench. I didn't get hit, I touched the shell gun in my waist and lay down in the hands of two comrades, until the hygienist gave me an injection, and then slowly woke up......
