After throwing down a dozen corpses, Xiao Ri Ben retreated again.

Xu Shijiu sat on the ground with his buttocks, feeling as if his whole body was falling apart, and he was too tired to do it.

Since the 19th Brigade took over the Saihongqiao position from the 348th Regiment at half past eight yesterday morning, it has been holding on for nearly 40 hours now, Xu 19 can't remember how many times he repelled the Japanese attack, and the tanks alone seem to have destroyed four vehicles, two of which he killed with mortars, and the other two were ordered by the brothers.

In addition, the Zhonghua Gate has been lost, and gunshots have been heard in the city of Nanjing.

After gasping for a moment, Xu Shijiu shouted in a hoarse voice: "Companies, report the casualties." ”

Gu Wei and Lu Yong have all been sacrificed, the veterans of the one-eyed dragon, Gao Shenxing and the two temporary acting company commanders dragged their tired legs and got up, bent down and slapped the soldiers' steel helmets one by one, and the soldiers of each company stayed in their respective trenches, and the veterans who could still breathe would usually hum, and if there was no reaction, it meant that the soldier had died.

The casualty figures were quickly told, and there were 21 men left in the entire 19th Brigade, including two seriously wounded.

21 people, not even half a platoon of troops, not to mention that this is not the worst, the worst thing is that there is not much impeachment medicine left.

Xu Jiu licked his chapped lips, he could only let Gao Shenxing take a few brothers to risk their lives to collect guns and ammunition medicine abandoned by the Japanese army, Xiao Ri Jian was not a fool, of course he would not watch the national army collect their guns and ammunition, so he used a Type 92 heavy machine gun to shoot from a distance of thousands of meters.

In the end, only four of the seven veterans who went out to collect guns and ammunition came back.

Gao Shenxing and the other three veterans carried back a total of nine three-eight large covers, more than 80 rounds of ammunition, and ten grenades.

Zuihou's remaining eighteen veterans began to silently check the equipment and distribute the ammunition, except for Gao Shenxing, each veteran was evenly divided into five rounds of ammunition, two grenades or grenades per person, and the rest were only bayonets, as for Gao Shenxing, Xu Nineteen put the remaining more than 100 rounds 7. The 62mm caliber bullets were all given to him alone

A short scream rang out again in the sky, and Xiao Hi began shelling again.

Immediately afterwards, rows of shells fell overwhelmingly on the position of the 3rd Company, and Xiao Ri was really angry, this shelling not only had 70mm caliber 92 infantry guns, 75mm caliber field howitzers and L05mm caliber field howitzers, and even L50mm caliber heavy howitzers!

Xu Shijiu held his head in his hands, squatting quietly in the trench, a loud sound exploded in his ears from time to time, and even the ground under his feet was trembling violently, and the scorching sand kept turning up, falling onto his body with a flutter, and then falling into his neck along the neck of his clothes, burning his teeth, but he didn't dare to move a little.

At this moment, the only thing Xu Jiu and the veterans could do was to wait, waiting for the Japanese artillery bombardment to end, or waiting for a shell to fall and blow them to pieces!

I don't know how long it took, maybe a few minutes, maybe half an hour, but the Japanese shelling finally ended.

Xu 19 shook his head, his ears were still buzzing and roaring, and he looked ahead, only to see that hundreds of Japanese soldiers had already opened the sparse skirmish line and were approaching the position of the 19th Brigade.

Xu Jiu and the veterans were still dizzy, Gao Shenxing had already been lying in the front of the foxhole and doing it with Xiao Ri Ben, with the help of the scope captured from Xiao Ri Ben, the official rifle gun in his hand had become Xiao Ri Ben's nightmare, nearly a thousand meters away, as long as it was a fixed target, basically no bullets.

Gao Shenxing also singled out Xiao Ri's officers and machine guns to fight, and Xiao Ri was miserable.

It is hard to believe that when the Japanese army first entered the position yesterday, Xiao Ri Jianben's first attack was actually repelled by Gao Shenxing with a gun alone, and the situation at that time was like this, this kid first killed the Japanese squad leader with one shot, and then killed two heavy machine gun fighters with two shots, and when the Japanese army advanced 100 meters, the grenadiers and light machine gun fighters were also killed, and the fire support team was basically disabled, and Xiao Ri was able to withdraw from it.

However, later Xiao Ri also learned to be obedient, and began to do various tactical evasion actions from a kilometer away.

Even so, Gao Shenxing's hit rate is still frighteningly high, every two shots will definitely be able to kill Xiao Ri Ben, Xiao Ri Ben will certainly not sit still, the grenadier canister can not hit a thousand meters, the machine gun is not accurate, so mortars, infantry artillery fire, Zuihou even transferred armored vehicles, tanks, can force Xiao Ri Ben to this, I am afraid it will be Gao Shen Xing.

"Ding ......" accompanied by a crisp sound of shelling, another Japanese soldier fell under Gao Shenxing's gun, Gao Shenxing once again pulled the bolt, pushed the bullet to load, this is already the sixty-eighth day soldier who fell under his gun, since yesterday the 19th Brigade changed the defense of Saihongqiao, he was silently counting in his heart.

A short screech sounded overhead, indicating that a cannonball was whizzing towards him.

"Be careful, lie down, lie down quickly!" The one-eyed dragon hiding dozens of meters away was anxious for him, but Gao Shenxing was not moved at all, and locked on to a Japanese soldier again through the scope, he had already heard that it was a 60mm caliber grenade, and the landing point was at least twenty meters away, which did not pose a threat to him at all.

"Boom!" The grenade landed and exploded, and sure enough, twenty meters away, Gao Shenxing was unscathed.

However, at this time, the Japanese army had already approached within 500 meters, and several fire support groups finally set up heavy machine guns and grenadiers, and the Type 92 heavy machine guns and grenadiers were all aimed at the foxhole where Gao Shenxing was hiding, and the bullets were poured like water, and the 50mm caliber grenades fell like rain.

The good time for Gao Shen Xing finally came to an end, he jumped from one foxhole to another, and began to run for his life, only occasionally had the opportunity to stop and take a cold shot, and the Japanese soldiers of the reinforced squad straightened up and quickened their pace, rushing towards the position of the Nineteenth Brigade like a tide.

Without Xu 19's order, the veterans who could still breathe climbed up one after another, and a veteran who had a broken leg was also helped by his comrades to sit up, and the blood on the broken leg was like running water.

"Brothers, there are not many bullets left, and we are not cautious about such good marksmanship, so we will fight when we get closer to the old man, and no one is allowed to waste bullets." Xu 19 pulled the nose of the mirror box away hard, and aimed the muzzle of the gun at the soldier who hit the head, "Did you hear it clearly?" ”

"Hear me." The sixteen veterans responded with a bang.

The entire position then fell silent, and only 500 meters away, Xiao Ri's light and heavy machine guns were still roaring wildly, and Xiao Ri's infantry and mortars were also firing continuously.

In a suffocating wait, the Japanese entered within 100 meters.

Xu Shijiu held the mirror box steadily, without the slightest intention of shooting.

The Japanese army accelerated again, and soon entered within fifty meters, and the dozen or so Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front had already untied the grenade from their waists, and were about to knock the grenade on the steel helmet, at this time, Xu 19 finally pulled the trigger, only to hear a crisp sound of the horn, and the Japanese soldier Cao who rushed to the front fell to the ground.

The next moment, the sixteen veterans opened fire one after another, and the Japanese soldiers fell in a row.

However, the rest of the Japanese soldiers did not turn over and lie down, but began to sprint, Xiao Rijian is not blind, they have already found out, there are few people left in the national army on the opposite position, as long as they rush up, this group of national troops will be finished, and the victory will belong to them.

After losing nearly half of the troops, the remaining 40 or so Japanese soldiers finally rushed to the front of the position.

"Brothers, get on the bayonet and fight with the little devil of the dog's day!" Xu Jiujiu took the mirror box that had finished the bullet as a hidden weapon and threw it at a Japanese soldier on the opposite side, and then turned over and jumped out of the trench with a bayonet, and the remaining dozen or so veterans also pulled out their bayonets and stuck into the gun socket, and then jumped out of the trench with a bayonet.

The old soldier with a broken leg was no longer able to fight with a bayonet, so he unscrewed the screws of the two grenades, and then pressed the grenades under his ass with his fingers to tighten the fuse, and a Japanese soldier jumped into the trench with a scream, and stabbed the old soldier in the chest with a bayonet, and the veteran turned slightly sideways, and the bayonet poked him in the right chest.

The soldier was furious, holding the handle of the gun with both hands and began to turn the rifle vigorously, and the bayonet stuck on the rifle gun twisted back and forth, and the right lobe of the veteran's lung was stirred up at once, and there was red blood spilling out of the corner of the veteran's mouth, but the veteran smiled and smiled proudly.

When the soldier was feeling inexplicable, he suddenly found that there was green smoke coming out from under the veteran's buttocks. Hand grenade? The Japanese soldiers were taken aback, and when they hurriedly threw away the rifle guns and were about to turn over and lie down, they were too late, only to hear a loud bang, and the two grenades under the veteran's buttocks had already exploded, and the air wave generated by the explosion swallowed up the Japanese soldiers at once.

Xu 19 strode forward with a bayonet, this bayonet was no longer his original one, the original bayonet was pierced into the heart of a Japanese soldier Cao Chang by him as a hidden weapon, when the Japanese soldier Cao Chang was trying to sneak attack him with a box of Wang Ba, a Japanese soldier rushed over with a bayonet, but was easily dodged by Xu 19, and then stabbed the neck of the soldier with a backhand, and the soldier threw away the infantry, and fell down with his hands covering his neck like a goldfish's mouth.

"Sine!" Another Japanese soldier Cao stabbed at Xu Shijiu with a saber.

Xu 19 did not retreat but advanced, the saber of the Japanese army Cao almost slipped against Xu 19's right rib, but the bayonet in Xu 19's hand pierced the heart of the Japanese army Cao, and the Japanese army Cao's not tall body suddenly curled up, and the originally fierce and hideous gaze suddenly became dull and abnormal, and then fell down with convulsions.

More than ten meters away, a Japanese soldier was frightened, although he did not have the courage to rush up with a bayonet, but instead stretched out his hand to his waist and untied a grenade, and then took the grenade to the steel helmet and threw it at Xu Shijiu, Xu Shijiu did not hesitate to throw the bayonet out of the corner of his eye.

The bayonet stabbed into the chest of the Japanese soldier, and the grenade, which had already knocked the fuse, could not be thrown again, and after a few seconds, the grenade exploded, blowing the Japanese soldier into pieces.

Without warning, Xu Shijiu turned around suddenly, and the big iron fist was already raised high.

However, this fist failed to fall after all, and it was not someone else who was close to him, but Gao Shenxing, Gao Shenxing held his Zhongzheng sword back, the Zhongzheng sword had been broken, but Leng Sensen's sword edge had been tightly pressed against Xu Shijiu's throat, and only a millimeter away, Xu Shijiu's neck and common carotid artery were about to be cut off by Gao Shenxing

"Be cautious?!"

"Captain?!"

The two glanced at each other and then quickly turned around, and when they turned around, they found that there were no living people standing on the entire position except for the two of them, whether it was the national army or the Japanese army, all of them had already lay down, and the whole position had fallen into a deathly silence, only a bamboo basket was burning and cracking not far away.

The tiredness after the fierce battle hit like a tidal wave, and the two of them collapsed on the ground at once.

Gao Shenxing gasped for a moment, then struggled to get up again, and shouted around: "Are there any alive, and there are no ...... who can breathe?"

No one responded, only the flames whirring in the wind.

Xu Jiujiu sighed and said in a low voice, "Don't shout, it's just the two of us." ”

Before the words fell, a low moan suddenly sounded not far away, Xu 19 and Gao Shen rushed into the trench as fast as they could, but found that the one-eyed dragon was groping for something in the trench with both hands, and kept chanting in his mouth: "My gun, my gun, my gun, my gun......"

Xu Jiu and Gao Shen only noticed at this time that the only remaining right eye of the one-eyed dragon was also useless.

Gao Shenxing went over and picked up a mirror box and handed it to the one-eyed dragon, saying, "Duxing, the gun is here." ”

The one-eyed dragon touched the mirror box twice, then pushed it away, and shouted: "No, not this one, not this one, not this one......" said the one-eyed dragon and collapsed limply on the ground, he had already shed a lot of blood, just now it was all supported by a faith, and now this belief seems to be almost unable to hold on.

Gao Shenxing held the mirror box in a daze, not knowing which gun the one-eyed dragon was looking for.

Xu 19 guessed a clue, and immediately knelt down in front of the one-eyed dragon, his hands groped in the soft trench, and after a while, Xu 19 found a small wooden gun from the dirt, and then handed the wooden gun to the one-eyed dragon, who was obviously in a dying state, grabbed the small wooden gun.

"Found it, found it, fortunately I didn't lose it, this is my birthday present to my son." The one-eyed dragon held the little wooden gun in his arms and whispered, "This is a birthday present for my son, I have to bring it back to him......" The one-eyed dragon's voice became softer, and gradually became inaudible, only two lines of tears quietly slipped from the corners of his eyes.
