Section XXII

Take out a small black cake from the food bag and stuff it into your mouth, the stone while chewing, while observing the Japanese soldiers surging in the distance, this is the dry food sent by the cooking class last night, in the case of continuous enemy attacks, it is too troublesome to transport rice, besides, it is more time-consuming to eat, or this kind of dry food is more practical and convenient, although the taste is really not very good.

Before he could see the surrounding situation clearly, there was already a loud roar in the sky, and at the same time, the "boom" cannon sound and the explosion sounded almost at the same time, and as the plume of smoke rose into the air, another round of Japanese artillery bombardment began.

Stone obediently retracted his head into the trench, took out a little cotton from his pocket and stuffed it into his ears, covered his hands tightly, and pressed his whole body against the wall of the trench......

"Whoosh...... Boom...... Bang ......" A series of explosions exploded near them, and sections of trenches were lifted off, shrapnel and dirt scattered in all directions, blurring the vision of the position. However, it didn't matter anymore, in such a situation of heavy Japanese artillery fire, no one would look up, leaving the cover of the trenches, flying shrapnel covering almost every inch of the position, and raising one's head was no different from suicide.

After enduring the bombardment for more than ten minutes, the stone suddenly felt a little wrong, the shelling before each attack of the devil was routine, but this time it seemed to take longer than usual, not taking into account the consumption of ammunition, the temperature of the barrel alone would reach a certain height after such a long time, if you continue to shoot without cooling, it will cause a tragedy such as a blast. In this way, the only explanation is that the devil's reinforcements have arrived, thinking of this, Shishi's heart can't help but tighten, today's battle looks a little hanging.

On a small piece of flat land behind the top of the mountain, Cheng Zhi, the commander of the 302nd Regiment in charge of this position, obviously also discovered this anomaly, most of the coverage area of the Japanese artillery shells was on the position on the north side of the hillside, his position was relatively safer, after feeling that the enemy's shelling was indeed strange, he boldly poked his head out of the top of the mountain, and when he raised his binoculars to observe the enemy situation in the distance, the sound of gasping cold air also came out at this time. Commander Cheng, who has always been calm and calm, shouted loudly to the guards beside him at this time: "Quick, quickly contact the brigade headquarters, the devil's reinforcements have arrived, the little devil has increased his troops, I want reinforcements, I want reinforcements." ”

"Tell the regiment to attach it, the reserve team will give me a top after the devil's shelling, order the 1st battalion and 3rd battalion, give me two wings, if anyone dares to take a step back, don't blame me for turning my face and not recognizing people."

Listening to the regiment commander's frantic shouting, the guards on the side nodded solemnly, and after hearing what the regiment commander said, they immediately pulled out their legs and ran to the communication platoon behind, and at this time, Cheng Zhi obviously felt that it was not very safe, and immediately turned around and rushed towards a flat ground behind the hillside.

This area is the position of the mortar company directly under the regiment, said to be an artillery company, in fact, it is a reinforced platoon, two 120 mortar doors, is all their belongings, that's all, but there are not many shells, after this period of hard fighting, full of calculations, there are more than 20 rounds, these shells in the eyes of the artillery company soldiers, all of them are very precious.

Seeing Cheng Zhi coming from afar, the company commander Wan Quan immediately greeted him with the company deputy, as artillerymen, they obviously also heard the anomalies on the frontal battlefield.

"Listen to my orders, don't save ammunition when the time comes, when the shells are finished, the whole company immediately takes their guns and throws them into the front battlefield, do you understand?" Cheng Zhi didn't have the slightest nonsense, and gave the order simply and directly.

"Don't worry, head of the regiment, I'll go and prepare." Wan Quan saluted, and immediately ran towards the brothers in his company, shouting loudly as he ran, apparently giving orders.

I don't know how long it took, when the Japanese artillery fire almost bombarded the entire mountain, the distant artillery finally stopped, and the trembling of the hillside was a lot slighter, but although the cannon sound disappeared, but everyone's head was also a buzzing sound, needless to say, I also knew that this was the sequelae after the explosion, but fortunately, the people here after a few days of bloody fighting, for these things are quite well prepared, after the devil's shelling began, they plugged their ears with cotton one by one, Although the buzzing was non-stop at the moment, at least they were not deafened, which was enough to make them happy.

The body moved, the mud and dust on his body fell down, the stone didn't care about these at all, grabbed the rifle in his hand, and put it on the dirt in front of him, and when he finally saw the situation in front of him, the stone was obviously startled, and he was stunned for a second or two, and his head was blank.

"Devil...... Devil, come up......" A familiar voice came from two or three steps away from the stone, it was Xiao Shandong, the vocal cords that had not yet fully developed, and at this moment with a sharp child's voice, floating above the position.

......Before they could recover from the shelling, the Japanese soldiers who rushed over had already begun to throw them at them, and at the same time, the overwhelming shouts of killing finally sounded, and the murderous aura that was suppressed in the chest burst out undisguised at this moment, and the momentum of thousands of people chanting at the same time shook the heavens and the earth.

The shouts of the Japanese army and the explosion of * finally merged together, and the fierce shelling regardless of casualties allowed the Japanese army to finally approach the forward position, and a series of * were thrown into the trenches of the Chinese army, and a series of national soldiers who had not recovered from the shelling were suddenly blown up.

"Fire, kill!" The anxious shouts of the company commander Zheng Pusheng came from above the position, and at the same time, with his shout, more than a dozen vigorous figures poured out from the company headquarters, and under the command of Zheng Pusheng, they rushed towards the enemy fearlessly like a fierce tiger in the mountains. This small stream of ash seemed so insignificant in the overwhelming earthy yellow at the moment, but this indomitable momentum finally dispelled the fear in the hearts of the soldiers of the 3rd Company.

The machine gun at the headquarters of the company almost opened fire when Zheng Pusheng and others rushed out, and the roaring sound with the smiling bullet plunged into the Japanese army, and with the back and forth strafing of the machine gun, rushing to the front, the Japanese soldiers who were already approaching the first trench suddenly fell in large pieces.

Zheng Pusheng threw a * as he ran, and almost all the reservists behind him did the same, and after a rumbling explosion, puffs of smoke rose from the place where the two armies were about to meet. And the ash flow of the impact was also stopped, and all of them were integrated into the fortifications at the front.

The rifle in the stone hand made a crisp sound, and a Japanese soldier at a distance of about 20 meters in front of him suddenly fell, and the * that was still in his hand and did not throw it suddenly exploded, tearing the upper body of the dead Japanese soldier at the same time, and also put down the two companions who were closest to him, and at this time the stone did not care about the two bodies that were rolling and squirming on the ground, and when he moved the muzzle, another bullet was fired, and a Japanese soldier who had just put his hand behind his waist fell on his back.

The stone's accurate marksmanship obviously attracted the attention of the Japanese soldiers, and as soon as the muzzle of a Japanese soldier in the appearance of an officer pointed at it, four or five people rushed towards the position where the stone was.

"Bah...... Bang...... Boom ......" sounded three times in succession, and the Japanese soldiers who rushed to the front suddenly screamed and fell to the ground, and the stone with no bullets in the gun retracted the rifle in his left hand, and as soon as his right hand touched his waist, * had already flown out, * was not too far away, but because the three Japanese soldiers on the opposite side watched his movements with their own eyes, he dodged in a very timely manner, and he fell to the ground and did not suffer any damage.

However, they did not know the strength of the enemy on the other side, and when they avoided * and got up to continue the charge, the terrifying gunfire rang out again, "Bah"! Seeing a small pillar of smoke rise in front of them, their companions fell to the ground with a single blow, and there was not even a trace of superfluous sound. This accurate and rapid shooting technique immediately frightened them, and even the Japanese officer behind them felt a violent uneasiness, but in this chaotic battlefield, he didn't have any extra time to think about it, and shouted loudly, and the two Japanese soldiers who were a little hesitant suddenly shouted at the same time, and rushed forward, while the Japanese officer had a rifle at one end, straightened his body and prepared to aim.

The right hand pulled the bolt of the gun, retracted the finger of the grip at the same time as the trigger, the body of the gun has become a line with the right eye, and in the process, he has unconsciously pointed the muzzle of the gun at the target, at the moment when the front sight pointed at the face of the Japanese officer, the index finger did not hesitate to pull the trigger, the body of the gun jumped slightly, the Japanese officer who had been in a shooting posture suddenly fell on his back, and the flying bullet left a bullet hole in his head, which instantly erased his thoughts.

The two Japanese soldiers in the front had already rushed to a range of five or six meters away from him, and in the face of the enemy who could get close in the blink of an eye, he could no longer aim and shoot, while the two Japanese soldiers did not hesitate at all, and they were aiming and shooting at all at a distance of about ten meters in the run, but now the target was in front, and they shot almost at the same time.

But unexpectedly, the enemy in front of them was far more slippery than expected, and had already retreated into the trench before they could shoot.

did not shoot the enemy, the two Japanese soldiers did not have the slightest frustration on their faces, but a trace of a cruel smile appeared on their faces, two cold bayonets, pointed directly at the place where the target disappeared, with the help of the power of running, suddenly plunged deep, that fierce posture, enough to make people daunting.
