As the saying goes, trees move to death, people move to life, and this is especially true on the fierce battlefield, staying where you are will be slowly consumed by the enemy sooner or later.

Chen Xinmin, the commander of the reconnaissance company, is a veteran of the battlefield, and he also knows this truth very well, and if he continues to stay in the middle of the river when he is unable to get close to the enemy on the east bank, it is undoubtedly the act of being a live target to give the opponent's head.

After organizing two charges to no avail, Chen Xinmin changed his strategy, and the remaining boats all moved closer to the west bank, allowing the soldiers to go ashore to find cover.

Although this will minimize the casualties of the main forces, it will be cost... Maybe it is to give up more than 20 people from Li Shuanggui who have just landed.

Chen Xinmin felt a little guilty, this was also the result of his dereliction of duty in command, he didn't want to passively respond to the battle, so he ordered Li Shuanggui's vanguard platoon to land on the shore booth, but who knew that the follow-up troops would be difficult to land under the blockade of the Japanese reinforcement fire, in order to avoid greater casualties in the team, he could only take this into account the overall situation.

The lower reaches of the Bosheng River are not very wide, the distance between the east and west banks is only about 150 meters, the east bank is slightly higher, the west bank is dense forest, the soldiers on both sides shoot each other across the river, and they can't help each other for a while.

After fighting for so long, the situation on the other side has been more or less figured out, the strength of the Japanese army on the west bank is about a squadron, and there are some long-range support firepower such as grenadiers and heavy machine guns, but fortunately there is no direct-aiming artillery, otherwise the situation will be even more unfavorable.

Chen Xinmin did not want to give up Li Shuanggui and others on the east bank, and was still organizing troops to try to cross the river by force, but the reconnaissance company did not carry heavy weapons in order to march lightly, and there was the existence of the Bosheng River, which was like a natural danger, and it was difficult to threaten the Japanese army on the opposite side after opening the stance.

"Lao Chen, the situation is not good, the little devils have begun to encircle and suppress the front row!" Instructor worries about preaching.

Through the binoculars, it was clear that some of the Japanese troops were moving towards the shallow rocks, apparently now freeing up their hands to eliminate the vanguard soldiers there.

"! The angles of the two heavy machine guns on the mountain are too tricky, and there is no way to defeat them. Chen Xinmin scolded that the weapons of his own troops could not reach the machine position on the opposite side, and as soon as the speedboat approached the west coast, it would be subjected to crossfire from the devil's heavy machine guns.

"I've already contacted the regimental headquarters to apply for air support, but they have just returned to refuel... Come back again, expect it will take half an hour. Putting down the binoculars, the instructor sighed and said that he was helpless, and the unlucky things seemed to have caught up with them.

Chen Xinmin's expression was tangled, the corners of his eyes jumped slightly, his brows were tightly locked, and he stared at the other bank intently, reason told him that it was best to wait for air support to arrive before launching a river-crossing attack, but Li Shuanggui and they couldn't hold out at all, who could watch their compatriots and comrades-in-arms being shot by devils and be indifferent.

"Zizi... A row of calls, please answer when you receive them..."

At this moment, Li Shuanggui's rough voice came from the walkie-talkie, and the signal soldier hurriedly took it down and handed it over.

"I'm Chen Xinmin, big? How's it going? ”

"Zizi... The devils are coming around again, my side has run out of smoke bombs, and the brothers are running out of ammunition... Zizi... I'll have to cover you up in a moment, I'm going to rush up the hill! ”

Up the hillside? Chen Xinmin was very surprised, but he quickly reacted that this may be their last chance.

"Order the snipers to keep an eye on the direction of the beach, and once the devil launches a charge, he will shoot me to the death, and try to reduce the pressure on the front row!"

"Yes!"

Each platoon of the reconnaissance company has a sniper squad consisting of three snipers and three secondary marksmen equipped with 5.3-magnification sniper G43 rifles, whose marksmanship is outstanding in the unit, and only those who achieve a 90 percent hit rate within 300 meters can be selected.

Soon... The Japanese troops who charged towards the rocky beach saw their horror, and the guns on the battlefield rang out one after another, but the bullets that came from nowhere were like the sickles of death, silently harvesting the Japanese soldiers in the charge.

Even if there are Japanese soldiers who have escaped the sniper blockade and are close to the shore and mess with the stone piles, they will still hate the northwest under the fire of Li Shuanggui and others.

Almost all of the little devils who fell to the ground were shot in the chest and abdomen in the upper body, and they could not find the position where the enemy fired, and the slightly experienced soldiers immediately realized that this was the sniper on the other side deliberately targeting them, and the number was not low.

The little devil was not stupid, and the Japanese squad in charge of the assault quickly gave up the suicidal charge, slowed down the offensive and summoned a grenadier team in an attempt to open a breakthrough with a grenadier canister...... But their enemies don't seem to be going to sit idly by.

Glancing at the enemy's heavy machine guns on the mountain, Li Shuanggui secretly calculated in his heart that if he could touch them and kill them and occupy the high ground, then the company commander and instructor would have a chance to approach the east bank, as long as the large army could cross the river, it would not be easy to catch these hundred devils.

"Concentrate the ammunition, give me two more 792 magazines, and when the cover from the company commander's side arrives, everyone will follow me and rush up the mountain!"

Li Shuanggui commanded in a low voice, and the remaining fourteen soldiers nodded one after another, everyone understood that this was their last chance, as long as they could rush up the hill and successfully take the devil's machine gun position, they would be alive, otherwise everyone would have to die here.

"Platoon commander, we won't bother you, give... Just leave us two grenades..."

The two wounded, who could not afford to be seriously injured, choked in a low voice, although the blood had stained the military uniforms red, but the expressions on their faces were so determined.

Li Shuanggui closed his eyes in distress, didn't say anything, just silently took off the two fragmentation grenades on his waist, handed them to the two wounded and held them together: "Brother... Take care! ”

Touch! Touch!

Several muffled sounds like artillery shells were heard on the west bank, and soldiers of several reconnaissance companies, armed with weapons similar to grenadiers, fired two rounds in quick succession towards the east bank.

The curved trajectory was so obvious that the devils thought it was a mortar shell fired by the enemy, and hurriedly hid behind cover to dodge.

After the "shell" hit the ground, there was no imaginary explosion, but in a very short time, billowing smoke was sprayed.

The SMLE Mk III smoke grenade launcher is a modified version of the Lee Enfield rifle, with a tubular canister at the front and No. 3 Lee Enfield at the back with only the gun crew and grip.

The overall appearance is like a No. 3 Lao Li who has been sawn into the length of a submachine gun, with a grenadier canister on it, which is front-loaded and excited by the empty cartridge in the rear bolt, but it fires smoke grenades, and the firing distance can reach a maximum of 150 meters.

Some pungent and choking white smoke spread ahead, and the view of the Japanese troops was once again obscured...

"Let's go!"

After a simple discernment of the direction, Li Shuanggui shouted vigorously, picked up his rifle and rushed into the smoke first, and the soldiers also followed him, like a swimming fish swimming in troubled water, and disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye...
