Chapter 577: Mother, I miss you
Wang Ye took the 2nd Battalion of the Guard Regiment and spent more than two hours marching to Chenzhuang in the middle of Laoxian County and Anhua County.
Moreover, the local troops and militias of the three divisions have been caught in a bitter battle.
"Lao Wang, you can be regarded as here." Sun Bin came to Wang Ye with a disgraced face and asked with a look of hope, "How many reinforcements did you bring over?" β
Wang Ye said: "I brought the 2nd battalion of guards." β
"What, only a battalion?" Sun Bin hurriedly said, "This is not enough." β
Wang Ye said: "Let's not talk about this for now, can you tell me what the situation is now?" β
Sun Bin spread out the map, and then took a flashlight to look at the map and said: "There are a total of five Japanese troops infiltrating our three-division defense area, and the strength of each road is about one infantry brigade, three of which are north of Ping'an County, and the other two are south of Ping'an County. β
Wang Ye said: "What about the firepower? β
Sun Bin said: "There are no mountain artillery, field artillery, not even infantry artillery, only mortars, but the number of mortars is extremely large, to say the least there are more than 20. β
Wang Ye said awe-inspiringly: "It seems that the devil came prepared this time, and the artillery firepower has been adjusted." β
Sun Bin nodded and said: "Lao Wang, what you said is right, this group of devils is definitely prepared, they are specially looking for gaps between villages, even if they encounter our resistance, they will not be entangled with you too much, they will be decisive if they can bypass, and they will fight with us when they can't get around." β
"These devils don't mean to fight us." Wang Ye said with a dark face, "Old Sun, you didn't let them go, did you?" β
"That can't be." Sun Bin said, "I'm strictly implementing the strategy you formulated, dividing my troops to block all kinds of devils, and concentrating the main force to encircle and annihilate one of them!" β
"But the number of devils who infiltrated this time is a bit too much."
"Just to block the attack, we used the strength of Lao Tzu's five battalions, otherwise the militia alone would not be able to stop the devil at all!"
"In this way, there are only four battalions left that can be used for encirclement and annihilation operations, and this amount of strength is simply not enough for besieging the Japanese army."
Speaking of this, Sun Bin said again: "Lao Wang, you also know, after the Tiandagang Blockade and Yunqi Town Blockade Battle, the three regiments in our three-district all suffered heavy casualties, and the attrition was very serious, and the four battalions were only more than 1,000 people, plus the militia was just over 2,000 people, which was only twice the strength advantage. β
Wang Ye said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry about the troops, the reinforcements from the second division will arrive soon." β
Sun Bin's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked again: "The second division will also send troops over?" β
Wang Ye said: "The devil launched such a large-scale roundabout infiltration behind us, if there is no reinforcement from the main force of the column, how can it be stopped?" β
Sun Bin was overjoyed and said, "Then there is no problem." β
While he was talking, Gu Xiaobei hurried over.
"Commander." Gu Xiaobei took a breath and said, "Commander Wen of the second detachment arrived with the troops. β
As soon as the words fell, a hearty laugh came, and when Wang Ye and Sun Bin turned their heads to look, they saw that Wen Zhaoqi, the commander of the 3rd Regiment of the Second Detachment, had already strode over.
Wen Zhaoqi, Sun Bin and Wang Ye are also old acquaintances.
"Old Sun, I'm not late, am I?" After Wen Zhaoqi finished speaking, he saw Wang Ye again, and said again, "Lao Wang is also here?" Then tonight's battle will be much easier. β
Wang Ye smiled: "You have so much confidence in me?" β
"Of course." Wen Zhaoqi said, "Who are you, Lao Wang?" The god of war in the northwest of Jin! β
Wang Ye smiled, and continued: "Let's not talk nonsense, Lao Sun, the task of blocking will be handed over to you, and you must make full use of the existing fortifications and drag all the Japanese troops of the five routes as much as possible." β
After a pause, he said to Wen Zhaoqi again: "Old Wen, you assist me in attacking!" Tonight, let's crush all the five fingers that Okamura Ninji stretched into our defense area, one by one! β
"Yes!" Sun Bin and Wen Zhaoqi agreed with a bang.
β¦β¦
Taiyuan, the combat hall of the headquarters of the 1st Army.
I saw that on the huge sand table, the five wings of the five divisions and regiments, a total of 15 infantry brigades, were divided into 15 routes, which were inserted separately from the northern foot of Jiugong Mountain, the southern foot of Wohu Mountain, and the northwest and southwest of Ping'an County, as if 15 sharp arrows were shot at the heart of the northwest base area of the Eighth Route Army.
Looking at these 15 eye-catching attack arrows, the staff officers in the headquarters were all amazed.
On the contrary, Okamura Ninji himself became frowning again, and he seemed to be a little worried.
Yes, Okamura Ningji at this time was indeed a little worried, before the attack was launched, Okamura Ningji felt that his saturation attack was definitely hitting the sore spot of the 386th Brigade, and there was a high probability that the 386th Brigade would lose sight of one or the other, so it could be said that there was no suspense in breaking Wang Ye's groundhog defense.
But when he really launched the attack, Okamura Ninji suddenly felt a little uneasy again.
The 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army is an extremely fierce enemy, and if this unit goes all out, it can even eat one of the most elite main divisions of the Imperial Army in a very short time!
The 28th Division was eaten by the 386th Brigade.
Therefore, in the face of such a fierce enemy, it is not safe to infiltrate and intersperse at the wing level, let alone infiltrate and penetrate at the brigade level, which is completely insufficient to ensure safety.
As long as half of the attacking troops, that is, seven to eight infantry brigades, can infiltrate and seize the marmot fortifications in the center of the bandits, then the tactical intention of this time will be perfectly achieved.
However, when the matter came to an end, Okamura Ninji suddenly felt,
His tactical intent may not be so easy to achieve.
Okamura Ninji suddenly wanted to discuss it with Takuya Mizuhara again.
At that moment, Okamura Ninji turned around and shouted, "Mizuhara-kun? What about Suwon-kun? β
Yoshimoto Sadachi, who was standing next to him: "Your Excellency General, Mizuhara-kun has returned to the gendarmerie." β
"I forgot that Suwon-kun is the captain of the Taiyuan military police." Okamura Ninji nodded and said, "Yoshimoto-kun, immediately send someone to call Mizuhara-kun, and he won't return to the gendarmerie during this time." β
"Hello." Yoshimoto was stunned.
β¦β¦
In Chongqing, the official residence of Huangshan Yunxiu Tower.
Chu Yunfei has been in Yunxiu Tower for the past few days, temporarily serving as a military adviser to Chang Kaishen, because Chang Kaishen is very concerned about this battle in the northwest of Jin, and often asks questions.
And Chu Yunfei is the most familiar with the northwest of Jin.
However, Yunxiu Tower was not the command organ of the two sides involved in the Battle of Northwest Jin after all, so Chu Yunfei did not have to stay in the battle hall for a long time, but more in the guard dormitory of Yunxiu Tower.
Chu Yunfei was chatting with the guards when a staff officer from the third group walked in.
"General Chu." The staff officer said respectfully, "Our team leader asks you to go to the war room immediately." β
"Is this a new change in the battle situation in the northwest of Jin?" Chu Yunfei stood up and walked out.
When I walked quickly to the battle hall, I saw Tang Zong and the two staff officers working nervously on the sand table.
Chu Yunfei said with a smile: "Brother Naijian, is there any new information coming over from the Taiyuan Station of the Military Command?" During this time, the work efficiency of the Taiyuan Station of the Military Command was really admirable. β
"Brother Yunfei, there is no need to say these words." Tang Zong waved his hand and said, "Come and see, we can't think of a way to crack the groundhog tactics, but Okamura Ningji, an old devil, has come up with it." β
"Oh yes?" Chu Yunfei's expression froze when he heard this, and he walked quickly to the edge of the sand table.
When he looked closely, he saw that Tang Zong and several staff officers had already laid out fifteen arrows on the sand table.
Seeing these fifteen arrows, Chu Yunfei lost his voice and said, "Okamura Ning has invested a full fifteen infantry brigades at one time? Is the old devil crazy? β
"He's not crazy, Brother Yunfei, it's our pattern that is small." Tang Zong said awe-inspiringly, "Okamura Ningji's sacrifice this time is a saturation infiltration attack, which is aimed at the weakness of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army!" β
Chu Yunfei couldn't help but gasp when he heard this, and said, "This is true. β
After a pause, Chu Yunfei said again: "The current strength of the 386th Brigade is only about 30,000 at most. β
"But the Japanese army has nine infantry divisions plus one tank division, at least 120,000 people!"
Tang Zong said: "Therefore, Okamura Ningji really hit the key point of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army this time, and it is not surprising that the 386th Brigade is afraid that it will suffer a big loss." β
While the two were talking, Chang Kaishen also walked in.
Tang Zong told Chang Kaishen what he had just said again.
Chang Kaishen was in a good mood when he heard this, and now it's okay.
β¦β¦
Anhua, underground command post.
"Hello? I'm the column department, please come in! Chen Mingli was on the phone.
The brigade commander and Ma Yuan gathered in front of the map, reflecting the latest movements of the Northwest Column and the Japanese army on the map.
Judging from the map, the situation of the northwestern column of Jin Province can be said to be very unoptimistic, because the Japanese army has too many troops, and the interval between the attack areas is very large, which makes the troops of the three army divisions very passive.
Soon, Chen Mingli hung up the phone and walked back to the map quickly.
"Brigade commander, the 1st Division reported that the Japanese troops in the direction of Niu Cun advanced another two kilometers! Although a platoon of the 1st Division and the militia of Niu Village organized a blockade, it only lasted less than half an hour, because the difference in strength and firepower between the two sides was too great, and the Japanese army was interspersed along the gap between the villages, so our groundhog fortifications could not be used, and we could only rely on temporarily dug trenches and foxholes for defense. β
Hearing this, Ma Yuan picked up the blue pencil and angle, and pushed one of the blue arrows forward a little.
When the brigade commander looked at it again, he saw that the 15 blue attack arrows representing the Japanese army had completely penetrated into the defense areas of the three military subdivisions of the Northwest Shanxi Military Region, and the fastest was the road in Niucun, which had even penetrated five kilometers.
"Damn!" The brigade commander threw the pencil in his hand on the map and said with a dark face, "Call Zhong Sheng immediately and ask him to send troops again, and block the Japanese army in the direction of Niucun at all costs!" β
"In any case, we can't let any Japanese army penetrate the marmot line!"
After a pause, he said: "Call Ding Wei again to see if you can transfer one or two more battalions to reinforce the first division, the defensive front of the first division is too wide, and the gap in troops is too big." β
"Yes!" Chen Mingli hurriedly went to call again.
β¦β¦
Taiyuan, the combat hall of the headquarters of the 1st Army.
The staff officers in the hall moved back and forth frequently, and the telephone ringing and the beeping of the radio waves in the communications department next door had already sounded, and the air was filled with tension.
Takuya Mizuhara walked into the war room with a saber on his shoulder, and stood upright: "Your Excellency General." β
"Oh, Mizuwon-kun, you're here? Come here. Okamura Ninji waved for Takuya Mizuhara to come over, and Takuya Mizuhara immediately walked to Okamura Ninji's side with a saber.
"Suwon-kun, come and see." Okamura Ninji pointed to the sand table and said, "Although the Imperial Army invested a full 15 infantry brigades at one time, launching saturation attacks from 15 different directions at the same time, the attack was still not smooth, and all 15 infantry brigades were stubbornly blocked by the local troops of the 386th Brigade without exception. β
"That's to be expected." Takuya Mizuhara said, "With the ability of Chen Gen and Wang Yezhi, as soon as the roundabout infiltration of these 15 infantry brigades was discovered, the two of them must have recognized the intentions of the imperial army, so they will inevitably send local troops and even militia to fight desperately to win time for their regular army to adjust." β
Okamura Ninji said, "But we can't give them time to adjust. β
"Of course not." Takuya Mizuhara nodded and said, "If the 386th Brigade is given enough time to adjust, they will concentrate their superior forces on the local battlefield and eat the 15 infantry brigades that have infiltrated the bandit area one by one, so that the imperial army will not only be unable to achieve its intentions, but will also bury the 15 infantry brigades in vain!" β
"Good." Okamura nodded happily, "So what do you think about this?" β
Takuya Mizuhara said: "There is no turning back when you open the bow, Your Excellency General, we have already bet too much, and now we have formed a situation where it is difficult to ride a tiger, so we can only continue to increase the investment in bets!" β
Okamura Ningji's expression froze and said, "You mean, the chariot troops? β
"Yes!" Takuya Mizuhara said solemnly, "Judging from the current situation, it is impossible for the infantry alone to quickly penetrate the core area of the bandit area, so the chariot unit can only cooperate with the infantry to attack. β
After a pause, Takuya Mizuhara said again: "In short, we must ensure that seven to eight infantry brigades break through the Eighth Route Army's blockade and seize the core area of the bandit area with the anti-guest as the main thing, otherwise this battle will inevitably be protracted!" β
Okamura Ninji actually had the same idea, but he was still a little hesitant.
But after listening to Takuya Mizuhara's opinion, he immediately made up his mind.
At that moment, Okamura Ninji said: "Order, the 3rd Tank Division immediately dispatched 5 tank squadrons, and coordinated with each infantry brigade to advance quickly in small teams!" β
"Hello!" Inoue paused.
β¦β¦
At this time, on the battlefield near Chenzhuang.
Wang Ye's two detachments, one regiment, two guard battalions, and five local battalions in the third district were launching a fierce attack on one of the Japanese infantry brigades, while Sun Bin led the other four battalions of the third division plus the militia to desperately block the other four Japanese infantry brigades, and the battle was very hard.
Originally, I could still barely hold on.
But when the Japanese put in tanks, it didn't work.
The four operational directions soon became leaky on all sides.
While there was a fight here, a messenger ran over panting and reported: "Commander, the devil's offensive is too fierce, and the 1st Battalion of the 3rd Regiment has retreated to Xiaochenzhuang!" β
"What?" Sun Bin was taken aback when he heard this.
The order given by Wang Ye was to take advantage of the favorable terrain and fight and retreat, so as to continue the advance speed of the Japanese army as much as possible, which required a high degree of consistency between several battalions and militia responsible for blocking the attack.
If one of the battalions retreats too quickly, the other four will be passive.
And now, Xiao Chenzhuang's battalion is obviously retreating too fast, and it has already threatened the other three battalions, because once Xiao Chenzhuang is abandoned, the devils along the way will be able to outflank the other three battalions and the retreat of the militia, and the entire defense line will collapse immediately, and there will be no way to fight the battle behind.
It's actually breaking one of the points, and you're breaking the whole line.
At that moment, Sun Bin could only say to Gu Xiaobei: "Xiaobei, you immediately bring a guard company over to support Xiao Chenzhuang!" β
There is a guard battalion in the third division, which is a reinforced battalion with more than 500 people, which is the last reserve in Sun Bin's hands, and Sun Bin originally did not plan to use the reserve easily.
But now there is no way.
and Gu Xiaobei, who can only let him go to the battlefield.
Because except for Gu Xiaobei, there are no available cadres around him.
There were not many veterans of the Third Division, but the last time they fought a vicious battle in Yunqi Town and Tiandagang, many veterans were sacrificed, and now even many platoon commanders and company commanders were promoted by surprise.
So in the third division, Gu Xiaobei is already a veteran.
Gu Xiaobei did not hesitate at all, and immediately agreed: "Yes!" β
Seeing that Gu Xiaobei turned around and was about to leave, Sun Bin told again: "Xiaobei, pay attention to safety!" β
Gu Xiaobei turned around, saluted Sun Bin, and then turned around and hurried away.
As soon as Gu Xiaobei left, Carlson immediately led his team, carrying cameras and video cameras, and Carlson himself copied a rifle.
When Gu Xiaobei rushed with the guard company, Xiao Chenzhuang was already in danger.
Gu Xiaobei ordered the troops to quickly enter the position, and at the same time called a soldier who was holding the position.
"This brother." Gu Xiaobei curled up in the trench and asked the soldier, "Where is your battalion commander?" What about cow eggs? β
"Our battalion commander?" The soldier wiped the sweat from his face, or perhaps blood, and said miserably, "I have already died." β
Gu Xiaobei's face changed slightly, and he asked again, "What about your instructors?" β
The warrior gasped and replied, "Sacrificed too." β
"Huh?" Gu Xiaobei's face became more and more ugly, and he said, "What about your deputy battalion commander and deputy instructor?" β
"All sacrificed, all sacrificed." The soldier said more and more miserably, "Not only the deputy battalion commander and deputy instructor, but also our company commander and instructor have also died, and the company commanders and instructors of the other two companies have also died, and now the highest position is the deputy platoon commander of the third platoon." β
Hearing this, Gu Xiaobei wanted to cry.
Carlson learned of the truth through an interpreter, and he was also in awe.
And Carlson couldn't imagine at all that the officers of a unit suffered so many casualties that it hadn't collapsed? What kind of magic does this force have? Even in the face of such a huge sacrifice, we can always maintain a high fighting spirit!
Irrepressibly, Carlson's urge to explore and document the force swelled in his heart.
Magnus said to his attachΓ©, Tom, "Tom, set up the camera, I'm going to record it!" β
"What did you say?" Tom protested in disbelief, "Sir, the Japanese army is about to attack, let me set up a camera to record at this time, are you serious?" β
"Yes, I'm talking to you very seriously right now." Carlson stared at Tom and said word for word, "I'll tell you to set up that damn camera, right now, right away!" β
"Damn, I'm quitting!" Tom dropped the camera and turned to run.
"You want to go crazy with these Chinese guys, whatever you want, I don't want to die."
"What a piece of shit." Looking at Tom who was scurrying around, Carlson cursed, and could only set up the camera by himself and pointed the camera at the position in front of him, facing Gu Xiaobei and starting to shoot.
β¦β¦
Taiyuan, the combat hall of the headquarters of the 1st Army.
"Baga, put in 5 tank squadrons to fight together, but they can't tear through Wang Ye's groundhog defense line." Okamura gritted his teeth and said, "It's really unbelievable. β
"Hello." Takuya Mizuhara chimed in, "Judging from the initial advance speed of these 15 infantry brigades, Wang Ye actually didn't realize that there was a fatal hole in his marmot defense line, so he didn't expect the imperial army to launch a saturation infiltration with 15 infantry brigades. β
"However, it is indeed surprising that the 386th Brigade was able to quickly adjust its defensive deployment in a sudden situation and stubbornly resist the infiltration of the 15 infantry brigades of the Imperial Army."
"It is even more shocking that the Imperial Army could not form a breakthrough quickly after committing five tank squadrons."
Speaking of this, Takuya Mizuhara continued: "This is enough to prove that the tenacious combat effectiveness of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army and the superb command attainments of Wang Ye. β
Hearing this, Okamura Ninji became more and more determined to do so.
This time, no matter what, the 386th Brigade will be severely damaged or even completely annihilated.
There are also Chen Gen and Wang Ye, who have to capture or kill these two guys alive no matter what.
It would be too dangerous to let such two generals of the Eighth Route Army, who possessed extremely superb command attainments, live, and it would be tantamount to a disaster for the North China Front.
At this time, Takuya Mizuhara said again: "However, the disadvantage of the 386th Brigade is objective after all, so I can assert that the Imperial Army will be able to make a breakthrough soon." β
As soon as the words fell, Yasushi Inoue, the head of the communications section, walked in quickly.
"Your Excellency, General." Inoue Yasushi first reported, "Sasaki's brigade has advanced to the vicinity of Kochenzhuang. β
"Xiao Chen Zhuang?" Okamura Ningji's eyes immediately fell on the sand table, and Takuya Mizuhara found the location of Xiao Chenzhuang from the sand table for the first time, and pointed out the wooden pole to Okamura Ningji.
Masao Inamori quickly advanced the wargame representing Sasaki's brigade to the location of Xiao Chenzhuang.
After seeing the location of Xiao Chenzhuang clearly, Okamura Ningji's eyes lit up for a moment, and he said happily: "Very good, if the Sasaki Brigade can make a detour of two kilometers further, it can get rid of the entanglement of the 386th Brigade, and it will completely and completely penetrate into the core area of the bandit area. β
Takuya Mizuhara also smiled and said: "Obviously, the strength of the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army has been used to the limit, so the entire defense line has become a linear defense, at this time, the imperial army only needs to break through one of them, and the entire defense line of the 386th Brigade will be shattered like an eggshell, and Your Excellency's anti-guest main has been completed!" β
"Well, that's too early." Okamura said with a wave of his hand.
After a pause, Okamura Ninji instructed Inoue Yasushi again: "Inoue-kun, telegraph to Sasaki's brigade, don't get too entangled with Xiao Chenzhuang's Eighth Route Army, if you encounter an attack in the gap between villages, you must break it in the shortest possible time at all costs, and then continue to infiltrate in a roundabout way with great strides!" β
"Hello!" Inoue paused.
β¦β¦
Battlefield near Xiao Chenzhuang.
Magnus held the camera and shook the handle while pointing the camera at Gu Xiaobei.
Although it was nighttime, the red light from the explosion of artillery shells and grenades, as well as the burning of wheat straw piles, sweet potato vines and other debris on the battlefield, could still clearly see the whole battlefield.
Since the Japanese army chose the gap between the two villages, the fortifications built in advance did not come in handy.
Gu Xiaobei and they could only rely on the shallow foxholes and trenches that were temporarily dug to fight, so the battle was very hard, and the casualties of the troops were also very large.
"Battalion Commander Valley, tank! The devil's tank is up again! β
The warriors who were stationed in a foxhole in front of them shouted.
Magnus adjusted the camera lens slightly, and he saw the Japanese tanks.
It was supposed to be a Type 97 medium tank, and as it advanced, it fired fiercely with its forward-firing machine gun, and the dazzling tongue of fire swept through the foxhole in front of it.
The soldier who had just raised the warning was instantly beaten into a sieve.
From the lens of the camera, Carlson could even see the liquid flying in the night, it was blood!
"Molotov cocktails!" Gu Xiaobei's voice sounded, "Molotov cocktail!" Take out the Molotov cocktail tank! β
"Camp Commander Gu, there are no Molotov cocktails!" A voice rang out, "We don't have many Molotov cocktails in the first place, and the few we have just run out!" β
"Dynamite pack!" Gu Xiaobei's voice sounded again, "Hurry up and get the explosives bag!" β
"Explosives pack, explosives packs are coming!" Soon the militia sent explosives packs.
Then, without waiting for Gu Xiaobei to give an order, a soldier picked up the explosive bag and jumped out of the trench.
In the night sky, the soldier roared slightly hoarsely: "I am a communist, I will go first!" β
Magnus stared closely at the soldier through the camera, who was obviously a battle-hardened veteran who did not rush forward stunned, but took a zigzag route and made various tactical evasion moves.
However, it was useless, because the devil tank was accompanied by a large number of infantry.
Dense machine-gun and rifle fire rained down, and the soldier quickly fell to the ground.
"Donkey Day, I'll fight with you!" Another soldier jumped up from the trench, pounced on the soldier who had fallen to the ground, and picked up the explosives bag from the soldier's body and continued to charge forward.
Still to no avail, another burst of intense fire poured down, and the second warrior fell in a pool of blood again.
"Fuck it!" Gu Xiaobei took off his military hat and slammed it on the ground, and roared hoarsely, "Fire cover!" All machine guns and submachine gun fire cover! β
Carlson immediately turned the camera on Gu Xiaobei.
Carlson already had a premonition of what Gu Xiaobei wanted to do.
He wanted to stop it, but as if by magic, he could only mechanically hold the camera to take a camera, at most he would turn the lens, and from time to time a stray bullet would scream past his ears, and he didn't know how to hide.
Carlsen felt like he must be obsessed, or crazy, whatever.
In the lens of the camera, the machine guns and submachine guns of the Eighth Route Army were already firing at full power, and the dense rain of bullets poured violently towards the Japanese troops in front of them in an instant, and many bullets hit the armor of the tanks and clanged.
The attention of the Japanese tanks and the Japanese infantry accompanying the attack was finally diverted.
Taking advantage of this fleeting opportunity, Gu Xiaobei flew up and jumped out of the trench and quickly assaulted forward.
Soon, Gu Xiaobei came to the side of the second soldier who died in battle, picked up the explosive bag and rushed forward, resolutely rushing towards the Japanese tank in front of him who was firing fiercely.
However, the Japanese soon discovered the danger.
First, the Japanese infantry accompanying the attack turned their guns,
Immediately after that, the Japanese tank also turned the muzzle of the front machine gun,
As soon as the fire attacked, Gu Xiaobei also fell in a pool of blood.
However, Carlson found through the lens of the camera that Gu Xiaobei did not sacrifice.
Although his entire left arm was shattered by heavy machine gun bullets, Gu Xiaobei still held the explosive bag with his right arm, then ripped off the fuse with his mouth, and then threw the explosive bag out with all his might.
The smoking explosives bounced twice on the ground and fell under the tracks of the Japanese tank.
In the next second, a dazzling red light burst into the lens of the camera, and the dazzling bright light could almost burn people's eyes, but the camera recorded everything faithfully.
The Japanese Army's Type 97 medium tank was lifted into the air at once, and its entire body was deformed.
With such a strong explosion, there is no doubt that the occupants in the carriage must have been shocked to death.
At this time, a scene that surprised Carlsen suddenly unfolded, the violent explosion of the explosive bag was like opening a Pandora's box, and a continuous series of violent explosions sounded around it.
Along with the violent explosion, countless dazzling tongues of fire bloomed.
Under the fierce explosion and the dazzling flames, the Japanese soldiers fell to the ground one by one.
It wasn't until six or seven seconds later that Carlsen finally reacted that it must have been reinforcements from the Eighth Route Army.
Yes, it was the reinforcements of the Eighth Route Army that arrived, and it was the main force that came, and it was just a sudden attack of firepower that severely damaged the attacking Japanese army, and the remaining Japanese troops withdrew in embarrassment.
The Eighth Route Army, which came to help, launched a fierce pursuit, but a figure rushed over and shouted loudly.
"Gu Xiaobei!" The figure shouted, "Gu Xiaobei? Little North! Little North! Is there anyone else who can catch their breath? β
There was no sound on the position to respond, and Carlson suddenly realized that the Eighth Route Army that had just held on to this position had all died, and he was the only survivor.
Magnus immediately ran forward with the camera in his arms.
The figure spotted Carlsen and pounced.
"Carlson?" The person who pounced on him was Wang Ye and asked, "Where is Gu Xiaobei?" β
Carlson didn't answer, just pointed the camera lens at Gu Xiaobei, who was already lying on the ground.
Following the camera lens, Wang Ye also found Gu Xiaobei, and immediately squatted down to help Gu Xiaobei up, and after seeing Gu Xiaobei's situation clearly, he suddenly looked miserable.
"Xiaobei, hold on!" Wang Ye said miserably.
"I'll take you to the field hospital, don't fall asleep!"
Speaking of this, Wang Ye turned his head and yelled again: "Stretcher, come a stretcher!" β
Soon two militiamen came running over with a pair of stretchers, ready to carry Gu Xiaobei onto the stretcher.
However, Gu Xiaobei shook his head weakly and said in a low voice: "Counselor Wang, no, no, I can't do it." β
"No, you're fine, you're fine." Wang Ye swallowed even more and said, "Xiaobei, believe me, you won't die, you will definitely be fine!" You have to live, you have to live! β
"Counselor Wang, I'm so scared." Gu Xiaobei suddenly shed tears, "I'm really scared, I don't want to die, I haven't married a daughter-in-law yet, and I haven't given my mother a pension yet." β
"My mother only has one son left, I can't die......"
"Don't be afraid, Xiaobei is not afraid." Wang Ye could only hug Gu Xiaobei hard, "You won't die." β
"My mother, my mother......" Gu Xiaobei quickly entered a dying state, there may have been hallucinations in front of him, the fear on his face suddenly disappeared, replaced by a smile, "Mother, I miss you." β
After shouting the last mother, Gu Xiaobei tilted his head and swallowed his last breath.
Seeing this, Carlson couldn't control his emotions anymore, threw the camera and pulled out the diary from his satchel.
Then he wrote: Gu Xiaobei is just an ordinary soldier of the Eighth Route Army, no different from the thousands of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army that I have come into contact with in the northwest of Shanxi, he likes food, likes to wear new clothes, and likes everything that young people should like, such as marrying a daughter-in-law, he also longs for marrying a daughter-in-law.
But at the same time, Gu Xiaobei is also afraid of everything that normal people would be afraid of, such as death.
In his dying moments, I saw a great fear on his face, a fear of death.
From Gu Xiaobei's eyes, I can clearly see that he is full of infinite attachment to this world.
However, turning back the clock by five minutes, he did not hesitate to pick up the explosives bag and rush to the Japanese tank!
So I wondered what kind of force was sustaining him so that he could overcome his great fear of death. I don't know what kind of power this is, but I can be sure that this is fundamentally different from the **** that the Japanese preach, these are two different powers.
There seems to be a mysterious power in the body of this ancient oriental people.
It's not terrible to ignore the **** of life, so our beautiful country will definitely be able to defeat Japan.
Only the Chinese who love life but have the courage to sacrifice are the most terrible opponents, and I hope that China will always be an ally of the beautiful country, and I hope that the beautiful country will never be an enemy of China.
Only the stupidest country would choose to be the enemy of China!
β¦β¦
At the same time, in Wanmadu.
Ordinary people have already begun to cross the river.
Dozens of ferries, large and small, have been moored at the pier.
The people of northwest Shanxi, who had been waiting on the banks of the Yellow River for many days, were finally able to cross the river.
Under the guidance and command of the militia, the people lined up in dozens of orderly long queues and boarded the boat in turn, and the two large and one small of the Gu family also walked in the crowd.
The two big and the small are Aunt Gu, daughter-in-law and grandson Little Potato.
Of the four brothers in the old Gu family, only the eldest brother Gu Xiaodong married his daughter-in-law and gave birth to a son.
The daughter-in-law and the little potato walked in front, and Aunt Gu was carrying a small burden, stepping on the springboard and looking about to get on the boat, when she suddenly stumbled under her feet and almost fell into the river.
It was still the militia on the boat who was quick to reach out and pull it.
"Auntie, are you okay?" The militia asked with a look of concern.
The daughter-in-law and the little potato, who had already boarded the boat first, also quickly turned back and hugged Aunt Gu.
Little Potato raised his little face and asked with concern, "Grandma, what's wrong with you?" β
"Good potato, grandma is fine." Aunt Gu touched the little potato's little head, and said to her daughter-in-law, "Old man, I suddenly had a twist in my heart just now, do you think something happened to Xiaobei?" β
"Mother, no." The daughter-in-law hurriedly said, "Didn't Commander Sun promise that he would not let my uncle go to the battlefield easily, so he will definitely be fine." β
"I hope it's all right, Amitabha."
"Guanyin Bodhisattva, there is also the blessing of the gods and Buddhas."
Aunt Gu closed her eyes and began to recite the Buddha's name in her heart reverently.
At this time, a militia member in front of him suddenly rushed over and asked repeatedly, "Who will deliver the baby?" Who will deliver babies here? β
The daughter-in-law said: "Mother, it seems that someone is going to give birth." β
"Huh?" Aunt Gu was stunned for a moment, and after coming back to her senses, she said, "I will, I will deliver the baby." β
"Auntie, will you deliver the baby? That's great. The militia hurriedly led Aunt Gu to a corner of the cabin, only to see that someone had already separated the cabin with a straw mat erected.
As soon as Aunt Gu walked in, she saw a pregnant woman lying on the floor.
The pregnant woman was obviously in great pain, but she couldn't hold back and refused to scream.
While instructing the militia to prepare hot water and scissors, Aunt Gu said to the pregnant woman: "Girl, if you can't help it, just shout out, believe Auntie, it will feel better if you shout out." β
However, the pregnant woman still clenched her teeth and refused to scream.
Aunt Gu said again: "If you really don't know what to shout, then scold, scold your man, you give him a child, but you still have to suffer for him, scold him, and you will be comfortable when you scold him." β
The pregnant woman really scolded loudly: "Li Yunlong, you bastard!" β
Accompanied by Xiuqin's hysterical shouting, a loud cry sounded in the cabin.
Then Aunt Gu's happy voice sounded: "Girl, it's a boy, it's a big fat boy!" β
