Chapter 2 War and Politics?
The ancient Lugou Bridge. It still stood solemnly, but this time, in addition to the natural wind and light, there was also man-made gunpowder smoke and fire scorching its body.
Fu Kaiming took two guards and ran along the traffic trench towards the trench in front. Around them, the sound of bullets and shrapnel bursting through the air was heard from time to time. The Japanese shelling fire was so fierce that the defenders could not even lift their heads now. In the smoke of the fire, Fu Kaiming saw Cai Fazhen lying on the foundation of the Lugou Bridge, surrounded by two stones to form a protection, looking out through the binoculars, beside him, more than a dozen soldiers pressed their helmets low, sitting against the wall of the trench, and some of them had been submerged in the dust kicked up by the explosion.
More than a dozen ambulance teams were running over with stretchers, and on the edge of the stretcher, several women in white nurses' uniforms were holding hanging bottles, looking at the wounded on the stretcher with concern, and talking to them. From time to time, bullets and shrapnel grazed past them, and suddenly, a nurse's body stiffened, and then, her white nurse's uniform swam red from the inside out, and her body staggered, and her free hand stretched out, trying to grab something, right? However, she eventually collapsed without grabbing anything, and the hand she held the bottle was still held high before she fell......
Witnessing this scene, Fu Kaiming's eyelids suddenly became moist, and then, he took a few steps to meet the group of ambulance crews, and said loudly: "This time when I go back, don't come over, and wait for the battle to rescue the wounded." After a pause, Xu felt that his words were a bit stiff, and he added: "You guys, hard work!" Then, he took a deep look at the female nurse who had been carried on the back by an ambulance team, gritted his teeth, and strode towards Cai Fajian.
"Xiao Cai!"
"Traveler, why are you here?!" Seeing Fu Kaiming, Cai Fazhen felt a little excited and flustered. He wanted to stand up and salute, but Fu Kaiming held down his shoulder. When the soldiers saw the brigade commander, they all wanted to stand up, but they were stopped by Fu Kaiming with his eyes. He said, "Everyone's worked hard! This battle, we will fight hard, but I always believe that victory is ours! ”
"Yes, the victory is ours!" Cai Fajian echoed loudly. Then, as if they had just discovered this, all the people raised their arms and shouted: Victory is ours!
The shells were still whistling, and from time to time the dust of the explosion hit Fu Kaiming's body, dyeing his navy blue military uniform an earthy gray. Fu Kaiming didn't have time to wipe it, he walked in front of every soldier, or wiped the cannon fodder off the opponent's nose, or patted the opponent's shoulder, and conveyed his concern and determination with an insignificant movement. After the end, he said loudly to everyone: "From now on, I will stay here with you, if the little devils want to enter Wanping City, let them step over my body!" ”
The soldiers looked at him, and several people couldn't help but burst into tears in their eyes, and without warning, they instinctively shouted: "Resolutely fight with the brigade, as long as there is one person, ensure that the position is not lost, and ensure the safety of Wanping City." ”
After nearly half an hour of shelling, in the telescope, seeing that the defenders' positions on the opposite side were in disarray, Ono Kawaji pulled out his command knife, calmly pointed in the direction of the Lugou Bridge, and shouted: "Charge!" ”
"Ho!" "Wow!" The devil of a squadron in the vanguard jumped out of the trench, held up a bright bayonet, and rushed towards the position of the Cadet Corps like a tide.
"It's coming!" Cai Fazhen shook the dust on his head, and his whole body was in high spirits, he whispered, and unscrewed the lids of several grenades placed in front of him.
Lai Qiang walked to Fu Kaiming's side, and he said, "Brigade Commander Fu, you can go back to the city tower with me, you will only make Platoon Commander Cai and them nervous here." ”
Fu Kaiming glared at him and didn't speak, tightened the Wei Qing-style assault rifle in his hand, and said, "I haven't used a rifle for a while, Wang Da Egg, let's try it later." ”
One of his guards, Wang Da Egg was known for his accurate marksmanship, which allowed him to carry a long spear on his back at all times, in addition to a short gun. He grinned, rolled his eyes, and said, "Then you have to have some color." Hmmm, how about washing each other's stinky socks for a month if you lose? ”
Fu Kaiming smiled: "Okay, you're a big egg, okay, Xiao Lizi, then you can help us count." ”
"I won't help you count, I will also participate," Xiao Lizi's full name is Li Guangzu, because he had just joined the army, he understood that Fu Kaiming was intentionally taking care of himself, but with his temperament, how could he agree.
Seeing the three of them singing and harmonizing, it seemed that they were going to fight with Cai Fazhen and them to the end, Lai Qiang's brows furrowed slightly, and then he looked back at the city tower behind him, and said in his heart: The situation here is already quite critical, and the military seat has not sent reinforcements up, what kind of intentions does he have behind it? I'll stay here anyway, one more person and more strength.
The Japanese roared and rushed to the Lugou Bridge - one hundred and fifty meters, one hundred meters, eighty meters...... Fu Kaiming, who replaced Cai Fa's inspection position, silently calculated the distance, and when the cannon gradually stopped, the devil who rushed to the front took a look at him, he suddenly half-raised his upper body, and shouted: "Fight!" Holding the body of the gun with his left hand and pressing his index finger with his right hand to the end, the sound of "pop" gunfire rang out continuously. Cai Fazhen, Wang Da Danzi and others were lying beside him, and they had already raised their bodies at this time, and with them as the center, the surviving soldiers straightened up one after another, adjusted the guns in their hands to burst fire, and shot out the grievances and hatred in their hearts together with bullets.
Nearly twenty Weiqing assault rifles fired at the same time, which was tantamount to the fire of a light machine gun platoon, and the dozen or so devils who rushed to the front were immediately swept down, and the devils who followed closely behind them, some of them instinctively fell to the ground, and some of them continued to rush up amid the shouts of a second lieutenant.
This devil lieutenant thinks that he has a bit of tactical literacy, and at such a close distance, according to normal tactical thinking, he can go up with just one charge. But it was destined not to work here, he forgot a very important point, that is, in the hands of the soldiers of the Cadet Army opposite, it was not an ordinary rifle that required a bolt to shoot, but an automatic rifle that could drain a magazine of bullets as long as the trigger was pulled.
As for how to charge at close range, the cadet army has special training, that is, to control the speed of fire, to ensure that only half a cartridge of ammunition is fired at a time, so that it can give full play to the powerful firepower characteristics of automatic weapons without an advantage in numbers.
