Chapter 150: On the eve of the Great War
Hu Hao taught the soldiers to fire the artillery for more than an hour, and now all the devils have withdrawn, and they didn't stop until they couldn't see the devils.
Hu Hao was also sleepy at this time, he had just returned to the regiment headquarters and saw that Regiment Commander Zhang had already slept, and now Regiment Commander Wu was on duty here.
'Come back, your brother is asleep, what's the matter with you?' Wu Bing asked when he saw Hu Hao coming in.
"It's okay, come back to sleep, my brother said that I can only sleep here in the future, or I will go outside to sleep, you tell my brother!" Hu Hao said to Wu Bing.
'Don't come to pit me, let you sleep here, sleep here!' Okay, you sleep, I guess the devils won't come to our side to attack before 10 o'clock, you can toss the devils enough in the morning!' Commander Wu said.
'Okay, I'm sleeping!' Hu Hao said and spread out the quilt in the open space next to Captain Zhang, and the monkey also followed, and now Captain Zhang has to focus on monitoring the two of them, one is the main offender and the other is an accessory. So no one can run.
As soon as the devils set up camp, Kengo Noda received a telegram of criticism from his superiors that he had to take the defense of the Eighth Route before it got dark today. I found the grain, and I was waiting for this batch of food. Kengo Noda saw the telegram angry scolding,
'Baga, I don't have any artillery now, how can I attack the garrison of the Eighth Road. That killing god can withstand thousands of armies on his side. Not to mention that the Eighth Road now has cannons!'
'Osa. I've just come back from the city with some artillery and mortars, and I'll see if this can give the attack an advantage!' Where did Hiromoto Lang say,
He's also in a hurry now, and if he can't find food, he will have to cut his stomach, although everyone says that he is loyal to the emperor and that seppuku is glorious, but seppuku is not cutting vegetables, it's cutting his life, so now Hiromoto Lang is also very anxious, I hope that Kengo Noda's wing can quickly take down the defensive position of the Eighth Road, and he can go and get back the food, if he can't get it back. That's not as good as dying in battle!
'Yo Si. Hiromoto-kun has done me a great favor, I naturally will not forget you, and when this battle is over, I will ask the North China Command to give you credit and let them reduce your punishment!' Kengo Noda said happily when he heard that Hiromoto got some artillery for himself, and Hiromoto nodded happily when he heard Kengo Noda say this.
'The order goes down. Now let the cooking squad hurry up and cook, and we will start attacking the positions of the Eighth Route Army at nine o'clock, and we must take it this time!' Kengo Noda said to the staff officer behind him.' Hey!' A devil captain staff officer hurriedly went out,
And those devil soldiers outside are now lying on the ground and sleeping, and they let the eight roads toss twice last night, and the soldiers haven't slept well, anyway, there is nothing to do now. It's better to lie down and get a good rest.
The Eighth Route is also sleeping here, and yesterday Hu Hao tossed the devil and tossed the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, and even the soldiers of the cooking class brought breakfast, and few people moved.
'I said what's wrong with you, you don't eat early in the morning!' The leader of a cooking squad asked the soldier who was coming over to get steamed buns and porridge.
"Haha, tell you, squad leader, it was lively last night, you don't know in the rear, last night Brother Hao got rid of the devil's artillery and got a cannon back, and the devil's position was shelled with artillery, you see, the devil didn't dare to camp so close, and now they are all retreating to the back, but we also tossed for a night. Comrades are sleeping now. You'd better wait. For the time being, few comrades will get up to eat!' The soldier pointed to the place where the devil was stationed yesterday and said, after finishing speaking, he took the steamed bun and porridge and squatted aside to eat first.
I said. None of the devils on the other side are gone, I thought the devils had retreated and stopped fighting, it turned out that Brother Hao had gotten rid of them!' The leader of the cooking squad said as he fetched food for the other soldiers who came to eat.
At this time, Head Zhang had already gotten up, and saw that Hu Hao and the monkeys were all lying next to him, and Head Zhang didn't make a big move.
However, Da Xiong still heard that Captain Zhang was up, and he followed in a daze, helping Captain Zhang and himself roll up the quilt, ignoring the monkey and Big Bear. After Captain Zhang went to wash the dishes and face, he saw that Da Xiong was still there with his quilt tied, so he said to Da Xiong:
"Big bear, don't do this, you go get some steamed buns and some porridge and come back, let's finish eating the rest for them!"
'Oh, good!' Da Xiong heard what Captain Zhang said and was about to go out.
'Lao Zhang, do you think the devil will attack today?' Wu Bing observes the front through the observation hole of the bunker. Let's see if the devil comes.
Commander Zhang walked over and said, "We will definitely attack!" We've got the military rations from the devil's front line back, and it's strange if the devil wants to get it back, so it's up to the devil's next attack, if we can break through our defense line, then we can only count on the next line of defense,
But you will give the order later, and transfer one of the two battalions you left behind, if we hold the next attack of the devils, then the devils will not be able to do it again! At least not in the short term!' As he spoke, Commander Zhang gave Wu Bing a cigarette and lit it for him with a lighter.
'Well, I'll let you know right away!' As he spoke, he told his guard that he should send someone to inform a battalion in the back to move to the front. After finishing speaking, he said to Head Zhang:
"The devil is this time, I totaled it last night, there are more than 3,000 people in the devil's wing, and we caused more than 1,000 casualties to the devil during the day yesterday, plus the casualties caused by Hu Hao's reimbursed devil artillery brigade last night and this morning's shelling for half a day. The devil's troops who came to attack this time were less than 2,000 people, and we still have about 1,800 people, and now the strength is about the same, and the weapons and ammunition are relatively sufficient.
The most important thing is that there is a machine gunner who is stunned, and there is a fight! If we block it this time, the devils will definitely retreat to the city, and I don't think the next attack will come soon, and now the devils don't have enough troops in North China. All of them have been mobilized to the Yangtze River area in the Central Plains, but it is difficult to say in September and October, the devils may gather heavy troops to come over, so you must hurry up to recruit new recruits and train!" Commander Wu said that he was also a veteran of a hundred battles.
"Well, it's up to me this time, as long as I am given about 3 months, I will be able to train a group of new recruits to come out, and then I won't have to be so embarrassed!" Head Zhang thought for a while and said.
At this time, Da Xiong came in with steamed buns and porridge, and Commander Zhang and Commander Wu plus Da Xiong began to eat. Hu Hao and the monkey were still sleeping there, and Captain Zhang didn't care about him.
At 9 o'clock, the scouts in front came to report, and the devils began to gather to this side. Commander Zhang and Commander Wu hurriedly ordered the soldiers to stand by and prepare to deal with the attack of the devils. After the order was finished, Commander Zhang came to the place where Hu Hao was sleeping.
'Two stunned. Two stunned! Get up. The devil is coming!' Head Zhang squatted down and pushed Hu Hao with his hand.
'Well, what, the devil is here again, looking for death. I've only slept for a few minutes!' Hu Hao sat up in a daze, and muttered in his mouth. At the same time, Captain Zhang also got the monkey up. I saw that Hu Hao was still sitting there. The head is on the spot. Knowing that this kid hasn't woken up yet.
'Hurry up, the devil is coming!' Head Zhang pushed Hu Hao, Hu Hao stood up, wiped his eyes with his hand, and looked outside, there was no devil.
'Brother, how can there be a devil!' Hu Hao asked dissatisfied.
'It's coming soon, you don't want to eat!' Head Zhang said and took a few steamed buns and a bowl of porridge and handed them to Hu Hao.
Hu Hao took it and said: 'Wait for Lao Tzu, but don't let Lao Tzu sleep!' As he spoke, he began to eat, and the big bear also brought a bowl to the monkey, and the two of them squatted on the ground and began to eat.
"Brother Hao, this time we will die, we have only slept for less than 3 hours, and the devil will come. It's too much!' The monkey said as he ate.
'Well, you're still the same old rule later. Officers, machine gunners and devil mortars, you just have to kill them! The devil doesn't have many cannons this time, so it shouldn't be a big problem!' Hu Hao said.
'Ah, Brother Hao, don't the devils have any cannons? How can I listen to your tone!' When the monkey heard Hu Hao say this, he hurriedly asked.
'Nonsense, no, you! Behind the devil is the county seat, and he won't mobilize from the county seat! But it's not much, it's definitely not as much as yesterday!' Hu Hao said while eating. After the two of them finished breakfast, they went out, and Captain Zhang didn't care about the two of them, Hu Hao and the monkey were still one person in one direction.
Hu Hao came to Wei Changqing's side, saw that the heavy machine gun was still there, and the ammunition was ready, so he asked: "Yes, just prepare it for me!" After Hu Hao finished speaking, he sat down,
"Well, is it too late to wait for the devil to arrive and then prepare for you?" Wei Changqing said, Hu Hao sat on the ground, leaned back and said: "It's not good to fight this time, the devil must be attacking on the third line, and it is estimated that the casualties will be very large!"
"Not necessarily, if the devil doesn't have so many cannons, our soldiers will still be able to resist for a while, and most of yesterday's casualties were caused by artillery!" You got the cannon last night, and even if they still had it, there wouldn't be so many!' Wei Changqing said, Hu Hao glanced at Wei Changqing suspiciously,
"Haha, don't look at me like that, Lao Tzu is also a person who has fought for seven or eight years, if you don't know this, can I still live to this day?" Wei Changqing said with a smile. (To be continued.) )
