Section 37 Stubborn Defense

A cannonball whistled over everyone's heads, and with a piercing roar, it slammed into the bluestone paved street.

The "boom" explosion sounded immediately, and the dazzling light and flames rushed into the air with thick smoke, and the heat generated by the explosion formed a shock wave, which was mixed with shell fragments, bluestone debris, and mud and rubble, and flew in all directions, knocking down walls, knocking down houses, and also bringing devastating blows to the soldiers around.

"Lying down...... Get out of cover...... "The experienced squad leaders shouted when they heard the whistling of the shells.

Veterans are afraid of guns, recruits are afraid of guns! Only veterans who have really experienced the test of blood and fire on the battlefield know deeply the horror and horror of the shells, the huge shock wave generated by the explosion, and sometimes they don't need to be close to people at all, they can shatter all the internal organs, I don't know how many veterans are even buried alive in the bunker, and they don't even have the ability to resist.

The most effective way to deal with artillery is naturally the foxhole, after retracting the whole body into the pit, you can avoid the terrible lethality of the shell to the greatest extent, as long as the luck is not too back, not too close to the explosion point, the possibility of saving your life is still quite large. Now they don't have such conditions, one is that time does not allow it, and then there is the hard bluestone ground of Gao'an City, and they can't dig if they want to, the only way is to find cover as much as possible, and try not to expose it to the open as much as possible.

As soon as the cannon of the third battalion rang out, several of the soldiers of the third battalion threw the stone to the ground desperately, and blocked the stone around it with their bodies, which made the stone that was crushed at the bottom very depressed.

"Zhao Yidao, let your people not be so nervous, this is a mortar, a 90MM mortar, not a 70MM infantry gun or a 75MM mountain artillery, not as terrible and terrifying as imagined, the devil is coming from a long distance, in order to grab time, it is estimated that he does not even dare to bring more rations, these shells can bring enough base number, it is impossible to have a large area of artillery fire, at most it is to suppress our firepower and carry out several rounds of suppression." The stone got up from the ground with a grim face, and said to Zhao Xinyi on the side.

Immediately, he looked at the soldiers of the third battalion beside him, looked at them with an embarrassed look, and couldn't help but say with concern: "I have been fighting with devils since Luodian, if you want to talk about the experience of fighting and the ability to save your life on the battlefield, there may not be anyone in the entire 302nd regiment who knows more than me, so you don't focus on me, pay more attention to your own safety, remember, only living people can learn from the experience and lessons of war, only living people can learn how to fight, so on the battlefield, the most important thing, It's just to keep yourself alive, you know? ”

Several soldiers looked at each other, although they felt that what the regiment commander said was right, but they also seemed to feel that there was something wrong, and they didn't know how to answer for a while.

The stone seemed to see their thoughts, as a general who had risen from a soldier in a short period of time, he could very well understand the confusion of these ordinary soldiers in the face of the commander, it was a mixture of awe and envy, it was not clear whether he understood or not, but one thing the stone was very clear, he was actually no different from these soldiers, let alone superior. Thinking of those brothers who sacrificed their lives for the country and the countless Paozawa brothers whose names he could not even remember clearly, his only feeling was that he was lucky enough to be alive until now.

Zhao Yidao smiled innocently, stretched out his hand and touched his head and said: "Tuanzao, if something happens to you, we can't afford it, I think you should retreat to the north gate to accompany Liu Maniac, there is Liu Cannon here at the south gate, and you can't lose it." ”

Shi didn't seem to listen to a word, but just said to him: "Don't be verbose here, go and call Liu Taiping, and send someone to see the situation on both sides, and tell me any news in time." ”

Zhao Yidao immediately confessed a few words to the few soldiers beside him, watching them quickly run in all directions, and couldn't help but still follow behind the stone with a bitter face. He was extremely unhappy that the regimental commander would remain on the battlefield in spite of his advice, especially when the whistle of each shell sounded, and he was so nervous that his eyes did not dare to take off the stone, as if ready to throw him to the ground at any moment. But seeing the regiment commander constantly shuttling around like a nobody, after he was nervous for a long time, he was really a little helpless, it seemed that the stone did not have any boasting, and the judgment of the landing point of the cannonball was many times higher than they didn't know.

Liu Taiping rolled up his sleeves, carrying a rifle and striding towards them, the invasion of artillery fire and smoke and his agile skills made his whole person look very strong, far from being as polite and weak as an ordinary staff officer. But when the commander of the first three battalions saw the stone, he still didn't control his emotions, and asked loudly, "Tuanzuo, why did you come here?" ”

Shi looked at Liu Taiping, saw that there was a bloody slag on his shoulder, and couldn't help but ask with concern: "Hanging the lottery?" What's going on here at the South Gate? ”

At this moment, another shell whistled, not too far away from them, the violent explosion did not bring them any casualties here, but it raised the dust in the sky, making them all disgraced, Liu Taiping didn't say a word, pulled up the stone and ran to the side, and said while running: "Tuanzuo, get out of here first, this is not the place to talk?" ”

The group of people shrank to the root of the city wall, and there was a hidden soldier hole on the side, but Liu Taiping obviously had no intention of continuing in, perhaps because the power of the cannonball was too great, so he was not sure that the city wall would collapse.

"Tuanza, the devil is menacing this time, and our situation is not very good." When Liu Taiping arrived here, he finally took a long breath, the thick body of the wall city brought him a lot of security, so that he could relax a little.

Shi took out a box of cigarettes from his pocket, threw it to Zhao Xinyi, and advised: "Save some smoke, I don't know how long this battle will last, and I don't know when it will be made up." ”

Liu Taiping grabbed one from Zhao Xinyi without grace, pointed it to himself, and said vaguely: "Tuanzuo, the devil has rushed three waves, and the city gate is now full of corpses of devils, but the more people die, the more devils rush, it seems that if you don't take Gao'an City, the devils will not give up." ”

Zhao Xinyi on the side said strangely while smoking a cigarette: "You said that this little devil is really strange, when there was no one in the city before, I didn't see them, now there are more of us, hey, they are attacking with all their might, if they enter the city before, it should be our turn to stare at it." ”

Liu Taiping puffed a puff of smoke at him, signaled him to shut up, and then said disdainfully: "You think the devils don't want to, they just arrived, one step later than us." ”

Zhao Xinyi didn't believe it: "How is it possible? Who doesn't know that the little devil arrived in the middle of the night last night, who are you bluffing? The little devil just arrived? Don't you talk nonsense with your eyes open? ”

"Zhao Yidao, if you don't believe it, just climb the city wall and take a look, just look at what the devils are outside." Liu Taiping said indifferently.

Zhao Xinyi's eyes widened, and he got up to go up, but as soon as his body moved, he was stopped by a stone, only to hear the stone scold: "Go up to the city tower at this time?" You've got something wrong with your brain! Or do you have a long life? ”

Liu Taiping on the side laughed, and Zhao Xinyi realized that this kid was fooling him, and couldn't help but raise his huge fist to beat him.

Liu Taiping was still laughing, and said while laughing: "Zhao Yidao, we can't get rid of the scoundrel, this is all your willingness, and it has nothing to do with others. ”

Zhao Xinyi scolded: "Deal with a bastard like you, let's play sideways, wait for Lao Tzu to beat you to the ground, and see if you kid can still laugh?" ”

Shi waved his hand and said: "Okay, when is this time, it's useless to talk about it here, Liu Cannon, what's the situation now, I won't talk nonsense with you, I don't ask how many devils there are outside, and I don't ask how they fight, I'll ask you, the south gate is handed over to you, can you keep it?" ”

Liu Taiping took a few deep puffs of cigarette, screwed the cigarette butt to the ground, and then shouted strangely: "Tuanzao, are there any cigarettes?" If you have smoke, you can keep it! ”

The stone got up, raised a kick and kicked him, and scolded with a smile: "There is no smoke, I have the ability to touch the devil by myself." As he spoke, he listened to the movement outside and said: "The devil is going to attack, and the south gate will be handed over to you, and if you can't defend it, not only us, but the people of the whole city will be finished with you." ”

Liu Taiping put away his grinning expression and said: "Don't worry, Tuanza, the position of my surname Liu has not been taken down by the devil, you just watch how I let the little devil cry outside the city." ”

At this time, several soldiers who had been sent by Shi to check the situation at the east and west gates ran back, and shouted loudly from afar: "Regiment commander, regiment commander, one battalion, one battalion is back!" ”

"A battalion? Which battalion? Didn't Liu Wenfeng, that guy stay in the north of the city? Zhao Xinyi exclaimed when he heard this.

Shi was overjoyed and said, "Is it that Li Ying has come back with them?" What about the three battalion commanders? ”

When Liu Taiping heard the words of the third battalion commander, he immediately opened his mouth and was about to respond, but suddenly thought that he had now been transferred back to the regiment headquarters as a staff officer, and couldn't help but feel embarrassed, and spat at the mouth with hatred.
