Day 20, July 11. Today the enemy is honest and does not attack.

But as battle-hardened veterans, the veteran soldiers such as the commander of the company Ma and the old wolf did not feel half relaxed, but tensed tightly, checked the amount of ammunition over and over again, and kept calling to urge for supplies.

In such an atmosphere, a group of recruits also became nervous.

On the 22nd day, 13 July, just after dawn, a large number of planes flew over the sky and dropped incendiary bombs and explosive bombs.

The Japanese army began to attack the mountain, which lasted for a whole day and a night. Yi Yuanxing's physical fitness was unbearable, his arm threw grenades and threw sore, his marksmanship was not good, but at this time there was no need to think about any accuracy, because the enemy was too close. In this battle, the entire company lost fifty percent of its personnel.

On the twenty-third day, July 14, perhaps because the attack could not be carried out for a long time, the Japanese army used poison gas bombs, and the company commander had been prepared for a long time, but he could not avoid losses, and more than 20 brothers fell on the ground.

When the garrison date stipulated by Shangfeng arrived, Company Commander Ma gritted his teeth and conveyed the order on the phone and continued to hold on.

The enemy's attack continued for another seven days, and the people suffered for seven days. Including Yuanxing, there were only 23 living people left in the whole company.

Another round of shelling hit, and the number 23 became 19. There are only old wolves, Zhao Ergou, Yuan Xing and a recruit named Ding Man left in Class 3.

Company Commander Ma stared at the distant mountain with a telescope, his face pale. That night after the last wave of enemy attacks, everyone was too tired to do anything. Except for a few on duty, they all curled up in the trenches and fell asleep, and no one noticed that there was no one missing.

On this night, several artillery positions of the Japanese army were attacked and damaged, and heavy losses were taken. However, I couldn't find the team that attacked, and for a while I thought that there were ghosts and monsters, which made people panic.

Xia Guo's morale was greatly boosted, and Company Commander Ma laughed and looked at the mountain that was still smoking, and finally dispersed the evil spirit in his heart. When he turned around, he saw that Yuan Xing's face was defeated and he was shrinking to the ground with a depressed expression, and there was still blood oozing from his left leg and shoulder, and he hurriedly asked, "What did you do with this injury?" ”

"I was shot twice yesterday, so I don't care." Yuan Xing replied in a muffled voice.

Company Commander Ma looked at the enemy camp and saw that there seemed to be no movement, because the company's military doctor had died early, so he asked Zhao Ergou to help Yuan Xing go to the rear to find a military doctor to bandage.

When he arrived at the wounded barracks, a military doctor swept the wound of the edge of the line, saw that it had been bandaged with strips of cloth, opened it and looked at it, pouted and said coldly: "It's just a penetrating wound, since it doesn't bleed, go back." As he spoke, he fastened the strip of cloth again.

"You should always give some bandages and medicine, right?" Zhao Ergou said urgently.

"Where's the medicine?" The medic stared at the dead fish's eyes, his face blank.

Zhao Ergou wanted to say something, but was stopped by fate. Yuan Xing took a deep look at the military doctor's trembling hand, then looked at the wounded soldiers in the wounded barracks who were wailing in pain, took out a few medicine bottles from his arms and handed them over.

"Anti-inflammatory?" The expression on the military doctor's face finally changed, and he clutched the medicine tightly.

"I've used medicine, but I don't have bandages, can I give some?" These medicines were brought by me last night, and I was going to use them for myself, and they should be enough, but now I regret taking less.

"There are no bandages, the airdrop supplies have long been broken." The medic suddenly crouched on the ground and pulled at his hair in pain.

Yuan Xing sighed deeply, raised his hand and patted the other party's shoulder, and then forcibly dragged Zhao Ergou away.

Jin Chan: "You need treatment urgently, the conditions here are too bad, let's go back." ”

Yuan Xing replied in his heart: "I'm even more angry, how can I go back easily?" Wait and see! ”

After a long silence, Jin Cicada's words resurfaced: "In this world, I will always be." ”

Yuan Xing smiled.

On the thirty-first day, July 22, two days in a row there was no incident, and the enemy was given time to breathe.

"The third battalion changed five battalion commanders in a row the afternoon before yesterday, the last one died one, and now it is a platoon commander who bears it, he is going to die again, and the third battalion is really gone." Ma Deshan hesitated for a long time before lighting the cigarette in his mouth, and then threw the shriveled cigarette case away.

"Hey, it's not in vain to get a battalion commander when you're dying." The old wolf grinned and said with a smile: "I can't do it, if you die, Lao Tzu will be mixed with the company commander at most, and you will feel panicked when you die." ”

"How long have you been staring at Lao Tzu?" Ma Deshan glared at him angrily, and said angrily: "Even if we don't have a platoon leader now, Lao Tzu's position won't be your turn." Then he pointed to the fate of the line: "Let the monk be, people can do martial arts, I'm afraid he is the most alive, as long as he is there, our number will be saved." ”

"That Lao Tzu doesn't have any opinion." The old wolf looked at Yuan Xing, whose face was pale and leaned on the ammunition box, and smiled: "Lao Tzu is old, he will die if he dies, it is not bad to let the monk be a seat, and when he returns home after the battle, it is enough to marry a daughter-in-law." ”

Yuan Xing was a little speechless, I don't know why such a topic has to be pulled on himself.

"I said monk, since the killing rings have been broken, it is better to give up the color rings." Zhao Ergou was no longer afraid of fate at this time, and dared to say something to him: "You are still a chick, right?" ”

Yuan Xing glared angrily and spit out two words: "Get out." "Huh? Seems like a word, huh?

"Haha......"

On the thirty-second day, July 23, the order was finally received and all the men retreated to the second line of defense. Yuan Xing squatted in the pit and couldn't stop scratching his neck, he hadn't taken a bath for so many days, and he seemed to have lice on his body, and he itched badly. It's good to take a shower, no hot water, just cold water, it's too hot this day.

On the thirty-third day, July 24, perhaps Yuanxing's mouth was inadvertently opened by him, and it began to rain heavily before dawn, and it was cool and cool. But the trenches were full of stagnant water, and it didn't take long for him to lose his waist. However, the enemy also liked to join in the fun, and took advantage of the heavy rain to start another round of attack. When the Japanese army retreated, Yuan Xing stood in the water and soaked for a day, and the wound seemed to be inflamed and painful.

On the thirty-fourth day, July 25, Yuan Xing began to have a fever, but he fought for another half day with a drowsy head. This time, the commander of the company did not hold up, was hit in the head by a stray bullet, and hung up on the spot.

knew that what he said could not be believed, and the company commander did not have the turn of fate, and the old wolf took over. Lianli once again lost a few brothers, and there were only 11 left.

Day 38, July 29. The fever of the fate has subsided, this is the benefit of internal strength, and the suffering is longer than others.

Out of food, the old wolf is cunning, he saved some food in advance, and if he eats a meal a day, he should be able to last a few more days, which has no effect on Yuanxing, he is used to being hungry. And the city stinks now, and there are corpses everywhere, and he thinks it's okay not to eat.

On the fortieth day, July 31, Yuan Xing didn't care about one of them in the shelling, and Zhao Ergou was smashed by a mortar shell, and the whole person was gone.

On the forty-second day, August 2nd, even the old wolf had nothing to eat, and there were still 8 people in the company, so they could only go hungry to see how long they could endure, and if the reinforcements arrived, they would have something to eat.

On the forty-fourth day, the days were forgotten, and the hunger really couldn't stand it, so the old wolf began to think of a way, pulling out the belt from the corpse and cooking it, but Yuan Xing didn't dare to eat it.

Today, the third offensive of the Japanese army began, and even the tanks drove in, and the position could not be held, and street fighting began.

Yuan Xing dragged a wounded leg and was more flexible than others, in order to save bullets, he picked up a lot of stones along the way, which was too useful in street fighting, not to mention silently, and the power was not bad. Naturally, he was praised vigorously by several people, including the old wolf. Then they looked at the Japanese soldiers who had fallen to the ground, and ran over like crazy, rummaging through the ropes, and when they found something to eat, they shoved it into their mouths. This day is also considered to have passed.

It may be that on the forty-sixth day, the old wolf didn't survive either, and when Yuan Xing found out, half of his head was gone. The rest of the people did not have time to be sad, so they searched his body, turned out some bullets and brought them with them, and hurried away. When it was dark, Yuan Xing returned here with his memory, and recited the Jizo Sutra next to the old wolf's corpse, feeling that this old boy should also be blind. So I found a pit casually and buried it hastily. It's a pity that I don't know if the old wolf is a nickname or a real surname Lang.

Cautiously returning to the other brothers all the way, Jin Cicada reappeared: "Your current state is very bad, there is no point in staying here, it is better to go back." ”

At this time, there were only 5 people left in Lian Li, counting Yuanxing, because of his martial arts skills, he was the most vocal among these people, that is, the other four people listened to him.

He thought for a moment and shook his head again: "Let's wait and see." ”

The next day, Yuan Xing and the others found the large army of the Xia army, there were hundreds of them, all of them were yellow and thin, but the weapons were still stable. However, because of the large scale, the attack was more violent, and there was no ammunition supply here, so it could only be beaten passively, and nearly half of the people died, and the defense line shrank to the only building in Hengcheng that was still there, and this was the military headquarters of the defenders, and the wounded and the officers were all here.

Surprisingly, when it got here, the enemy's offensive actually stopped. They finally had another respite. There are only two companions left.

If a few shells come, the army will be completely annihilated. Yuan Xing looked back at the flag of the Xia Kingdom fluttering overhead, his information was given in vain, otherwise even the military deployment of the Japanese army was clear, why couldn't the reinforcements hit here? It can only be said that either the enemy is cunning and changes the deployment, or these friendly forces are too pitiful.

At dawn, there was nothing to eat, and Yuan Xing didn't even have the strength to speak. Another enemy came slowly in the distance, he cheered up, glared at his eyes and pulled the bolt viciously, he had already made a decision, and when the last three bullets in the gun were finished, he would contact Jin Cicada to go home.

But these bullets were destined to stay in the guns, the ammunition was exhausted, the whole staff was seriously wounded, the reinforcements did not arrive for a long time, and the order of the commander came from the rear, to lay down the arms and surrender......
