Section 57

Cheng Zhi didn't bring any orders, and the devil didn't appear in front of them as usual, and it seemed that he had forgotten this southwest corner, which also made the position of Saihongqiao rare in peace. Of course, this calm is only relative, after all, the shells and fierce gunfire in all directions have not stopped for a moment, and no one knows what the situation is in other places now, and the battle situation is changing rapidly, even the regimental officers who are paying attention to other places are also a little at a loss.

However, most people didn't have too much to worry about, and the arrival of the 305th regiment during the day gave them more confidence. After all, the commander of Zhang Lingfu is also a celebrity of the 51st Division, a well-known fierce general, although the 305th Regiment he brought out was not formed for a long time, but from Songhu to now, this reputation for being able to fight tough battles has really been fought in World War I, and in an afternoon, they still heard some news, and the 305th Regiment's record in intercepting the Japanese attack in the front in the past few days has been somewhat heard by them.

Naturally, these are the thoughts of those newly added soldiers, after all, the veterans of the 302nd Regiment have experienced countless bloody battles, and they are confident that their team is no worse than the 305th Regiment, especially the stones of the first battalion and three companies, and now they are in the limelight, and the deeds of being promoted from a small soldier to a captain and company commander in just two or three months are also full of envy and convincing that there are such ruthless people, and it is not easy for devils to take advantage of them.

Unconsciously, the stone has won the confidence of everyone through a series of bloody battles, in this bloody situation, life may be guaranteed at any time, everything seems irrelevant, what the soldiers want, is the kind of brave general who can lead them to kill a bloody road, take them to live from the enemy's guns.

At this moment, the stone is a person silently shrunk in the position, looking at the sky blankly, Zhu Xiaoshan and others did not come to disturb him, and even with other brothers they deliberately avoided a distance, since the battle of Fangshan, after Lao Meng left, they found the difference between the company commander, and seemed to be more silent, in this case, it made others more awe-inspired.

The constant surging flames of light around him made the pitch-black sky more brilliant and colorful, but this situation fell on the stone's eyes, but it did not play the slightest role, and from his slightly scattered gaze, it could be found that he was completely distracted at this time.

Shi is in a very bad mood now, the danger of the battle situation is secondary, the news he heard during the day is the root of his low mood, Commander Zhang was seriously injured! When the news first reached the stone ear, he suddenly made him stand on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning. Since he can remember, in addition to these three brothers who get along day and night, it is the head of Zhang who has impressed him the most, the instinctive reaction when he first saw him on the periphery of Luodian and the faintly familiar bamboo rank on his collar, to the several bloody battles on the slopes north of Luodian, Zhang Lingfu, who was a staff officer at that time, left a deep imprint on the bottom of the stone's heart, the counterattack that lifted the weight like light, the extremely accurate grasp of the battle situation, and the calmness in the face of the bloody battle, so that the stone felt for the first time that the war seemed to be more than just a blind killing.

Later, when he was in Liuzhuang, he was fighting side by side when he was in Xiaoliuhe, and when he was eager to take him into the city to see a doctor just after he withdrew to Chunhua, he would practice his words when he was eager to take him into the city to see a doctor, and the care and unreserved guidance of that scene made the stone who couldn't remember anything feel a warmth from the bottom of his heart, this feeling, the stone was only felt in the people of the older class, and only felt it in the arrangement and arrangement of Camp Commander Zheng's brains again and again, and even if the stone heard that their head Cheng was injured, I am afraid that he would not have such an expression and reaction.

I heard that Regiment Commander Zhang was seriously injured but has always insisted on commanding on the front line, and repeatedly led the 305th Regiment to repel the enemy's attacks, this time the army commander personally ordered him to cross the river for treatment, which made him leave the front line.

Thinking like this, there was a "creak" sound of opening the door not far away, and a faint light leaked out of a small building not far away, making Shi couldn't help frowning.

A familiar figure also appeared in the light at this moment, and after reflexively closing the door, the man recognized the direction and walked straight in the direction of the stone, shaking his head from time to time, as if he was quite troubled.

Shi hesitated for a moment, then got up and greeted him, and said from a few steps away: "Battalion commander, why did you come out?" Don't spend more time with your sister-in-law? ”

This person is Zheng Pusheng, the commander of the first battalion, I saw that after he heard the words of the stone, his face showed a helpless expression, and he even couldn't help but look back at Xiaolou, so he walked forward with the stone, and sighed: "Qianqian just fell asleep, I came out to take a look at the situation, in the middle of the night, the devil's cannon seems to be more violent, it seems that the situation is very unfavorable." ”

Speaking of the war, Shi Shi also said worriedly: "Yes, battalion commander, it seems that this capital may not be able to hold it." ”

These heavy words made the two of them silent for a while, and the two of them came to the place where the stone was before, and sat down, Zheng Pusheng took out a box of paper cigarettes, and skillfully threw one to the stone, and the stone on the side also took out a match to light it for the battalion commander.

After taking a deep breath, Zheng Pusheng exhaled a puff of thick smoke before he said slowly: "Stone, have you ever thought about what you will do after the battle?" ”

Shi was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't expect the battalion commander to suddenly ask this question, and after his expression darkened, he couldn't help but think of some things that Lao Meng and the others had told him before, and then hesitated for a while before he smiled bitterly: "Battalion commander, why do you ask about this?" ”

"There will always be a day when this battle will be over, and if we lose, we will inevitably die, but if we really drive the little devils away, it will be time for those of us to unload our armor and return to the field, and sooner or later we will have to leave the army." Zheng Pusheng explained.

"I heard my uncle say before, if you don't fight, you will farm and harvest crops, and raise some chickens and ducks, and those who have the ability will open a shop to sell some groceries, and those who have skills will work for people." As he spoke, Shi Shi said with some pain: "People like me who can't even plant land, I really don't know what to do, but battalion commander, it's really in vain to think about this, this battle continues like this, and when the battle is over, we will die a long time ago." ”

Zheng Pusheng shook his head and said: "People, no matter when, you must think about the long term, and those who do not seek eternity are not enough for a certain time; Those who do not seek the overall situation are not enough to seek a domain, these words are still very reasonable, even if you give yourself a hope, you have to think about how to live this life without a war when you are idle. ”

Shi nodded after thinking about it, but he didn't think so, thinking that this was a waste of energy, but the kindness of the battalion commander was still engraved in his heart, naturally, he was still very surprised that the battalion commander would suddenly say these words.

Just when the stone was full of puzzlement and conjecture, Zheng Pusheng took a few deep breaths, finished the paper cigarette in his hand, stood up without hesitation, and looked at the stone to get up, he reached out and pressed the stone's shoulder and said, "You hurry up and rest for a while, I'll go somewhere else to see." ”

"Battalion commander, let's go, you have been separated from your sister-in-law for so long, you should spend a while with her." Stone Road.

After speaking, the stone felt a weight on his shoulders, and the battalion commander pressed him down hard, and then said: "Don't worry about these things, by the way, you still remember what I told you on the top of Fang Mountain, right?" ”

The stone sat there stunned for a moment, and instinctively asked, "What words?" ”

Zheng Pusheng seemed a little angry when he heard this, and raised his leg to kick him, but the person walked away, and scolded in his mouth: "I let you do a lot of things? Or are you pretending to be stupid with me? Think about it for me there. ”

Watching the battalion commander disappear into the night, the stone couldn't help but shake his head? What did the battalion commander ask me to do? Doesn't seem like anything? Aside from fighting devils, where else do they have to do? Battalion commander, what's wrong with tonight? How does it feel weird?

In such speculation, Shi thought for a long time and had no result, so he simply closed his eyes and fell asleep, after all, no one knew when the devil would come up, and he would have the strength to fight only when he had enough spirit.

I don't know how long it took, the dark sky finally had a bright light, and in the sound of a night of rumbling, they ushered in a new day, and at this time, a terrible roar appeared above the heads of the 302nd regiment without warning, and when everyone did not understand what was happening, a violent explosion was made in vain on their position.

The earth trembled under the ravages of the cannonball, and huge plumes of smoke rose into the sky, like the coming of another night, or the continuation of the night.

"Enemy attack" and "Prepare for battle...... A frightened shout resounded in this position, and no one expected that as soon as the sky began to brighten, the devils aimed their guns at their positions.

And the previous shell, just at the beginning, just as the soldiers of the national army screamed one after another, a series of whistling shells fell on the head, so that Saihongqiao, which had been safe and sound, became a sea of fire in an instant. In the smoke and dust, even the light that was slightly exposed in the sky was obscured.
