The battle is over, and it stands to reason that it is indeed a big victory, and a lot of equipment and supplies can be captured in the stronghold.

But in the entire Ninth Company, from the company commander, instructors, to recruit soldiers, no one could see the slightest smile on their faces.

This time the battle did not go as planned.

The casualties exceeded the estimates of company commander Zhu Wu and instructor Li Wenjie.

A small stronghold in the middle of the same road, and it has not yet been built, and the defense system of the devil's puppet army has not been completely completed at all.

One squad of devils, plus two squads of puppet soldiers.

In fact, in this battle, it was the devils of that squad who mainly exerted their combat effectiveness, and the puppet army actually did not exert much combat effectiveness, at most they assisted in the battle and fired two shots.

This realization is still there in the puppet army transferred from the security regiment.

If they resist desperately, in case the stronghold is lost, the Eighth Route Army will not keep them.

From this point of view, the strength of the Ninth Company is five or six times that of the devil, and it is still in the case of a sneak attack.

But what is the result?

The stronghold was defeated, and the Ninth Company sacrificed a squad of soldiers, and more than 20 people were wounded.

The platoon commander was reprimanding the fighters who had temporarily retreated.

"What the hell do you guys think? The company commander didn't give an order, who told you to retreat for me? Let me tell you, this is a deserter, do you know that a deserter is going to be shot directly! ”

"If you hadn't retreated suddenly, our sacrifice wouldn't have been so great."

"The attack is all in my throat, why did he withdraw it for me, is there such a war?"

The retreating soldiers were scolded for their blood, and some recruit soldiers pointed to the soldiers of the national army who came over beside them, and replied weakly, "Platoon commander, they took the lead in withdrawing first, and we thought that we had given the order to retreat, so we retreated together!" ”

Everyone's eyes converged on the five or six soldiers of the national army who had surrendered.

A long line of people said with a dark face, "Give me an explanation?" ”

Wang Gui, who was quite prestigious in the national army who came over, replied: "Report to the platoon commander, the devil's firepower is too fierce, rushing forward is to send him to death, and the brothers are also instinctively retreating for their lives." ”

"Is it reasonable to run away? Let me tell you, this is our Eighth Route Army, not your national army, the company commander did not give an order, even if he knew that he was dead, he must be given to Lao Tzu! ”

"But how can there be such a war? We obviously won. Wang Gui muttered.

The platoon leader scolded: "Won? ”

"yes, didn't we take the stronghold? He also eliminated more than a dozen devils and captured more than a dozen puppet soldiers! ”

"Yes, it turned out to be a win, but that's what you want?" The platoon leader was furious, turned his back, and pointed to the remains of the eleven warriors who had been collected by the fighters.

"That's what you want? Do you remember? Maybe just this morning, these comrades are still standing in front of you, talking and laughing with you! The result? Their lives are forever here, because of your retreat, because of your cowardice! Because you think in your bones that as long as you can win the battle, sacrifice doesn't matter, you tell me, do you think so? ”

Wang Gui stopped talking.

The fighters who chose to retreat all bowed their heads.

A veteran soldier rushed up angrily and kicked Wang Gui in the stomach, "Dog, you return my brother's life!" ”

"What? Iron pillar, what are you doing? Look at yourself, do you still look like a veteran? You're still the class leader of Class 3! Is there anyone like you who is taking the lead? ”

The platoon leader hurriedly stopped the third squad leader Tie Zhu and scolded.

Wang Gui was also a little angry, rubbing his stomach and scolding: "Yes, the life of your Eighth Route Army is life, isn't the life of our national army life?" Among these lying brothers are also brothers from our national army! What I say on weekdays is better than anything else, they are all my own comrades, no matter what you and me, but what about now? In the same way, what national army and what Eighth Route Army are clearly divided by you, isn't it just that they didn't charge with the firepower of devils? As for you putting the lives of these sacrificed brothers on Lao Tzu's head? ”

Wang Gui, who was angry, was emotionally infected with the other national soldiers who had surrendered, and these national soldiers all looked like they were a little angry with the enemy, and they all glared at the third squad leader viciously.

The situation is on the wane.

The third squad leader didn't know what to say for a while, he didn't actually mean that, just now because some soldiers of the third squad sacrificed, he was too sad, so he couldn't help but lose his temper.

It's not going to end well.

Zhu Wu, the commander of the Ninth Company, had a headache, and he was now very sad and angry in his heart.

He has always been up to scold this kind of thing, but now that the two sides are arguing, he knows that his set will not work.

Instructor Li Wenjie strode over, his voice was very calm, and there was no doubt in the calm:

"Okay, there is a place for quarrels, this place should not stay for a long time, if you continue to quarrel, the devil's reinforcements should be killed!"

"I know that because of the sacrifices of the soldiers, your hearts are grieved, why don't I grieve?"

"I formulated the plan for attacking the stronghold this time, and the biggest sinner in the sacrifice of these comrades is me, the instructor, and I did not take many factors into account before the operation, and as a result, there were many things that went wrong in the course of the operation!"

"And the quarrel in front of you is also on me, the instructor."

"Don't look at me like that, don't speak for me, I know it's my fault as an instructor!"

"The soldiers of the Ninth Company should have been like family and went to the battlefield, they were brothers who could block bullets for each other at any time, but now, they have to divide the National Army and the Eighth Route Army, isn't this my dereliction of duty as an instructor?"

"In the face of the devil's fire, who subconsciously doesn't want to dodge, and who is really not afraid of death?"

"It's no wonder that Wang Gui and them, it's just that I didn't make it clear to Wang Gui and them in advance, if I told Wang Gui in advance, they encountered the enemy's heavy artillery fire, they could temporarily evacuate to the left and right, and dodge with the help of bunkers, so that there would be no retreat, what desertion, the company commander and their side, the firepower would not be blocked!"

Speaking of this, Li Wenjie blamed himself more and more.

"As soon as the battle began, there was a problem with the link on my side, the grenadiers were not checked in advance, one of them was out of order, and the other one, the smoke bombs went out, and they didn't hit the stronghold, just at this moment, the devil's shells fell, and several comrades were directly sacrificed on our side!"

"If it weren't for my dereliction of duty as an instructor, how could we sacrifice so many comrades?"

"Comrades, Wang Gui, the third squad leader, and the platoon leader, if you have a grudge or anger in your heart, you can scold me, I will never complain!"

After Li Wenjie finished speaking, he looked at the eleven soldiers who had passed away forever, as if he was still laughing with everyone yesterday, and he couldn't help but shed tears.

The crowd was silent.

Many soldiers wept.

Wang Gui in turn was relieved: "Instructor, you can't be blamed for this, who can predict some situations on the battlefield everywhere?" ”

The platoon said: "That's it, the instructor in the back, you adjusted it as soon as possible, covered the stronghold with smoke bombs, followed with grenadiers, and suppressed the machine guns with artillery fire, and our main force successfully launched the charge." ”

"And the instructor took out the devil machine gunner's shots, it's just amazing, if there is no instructor, whether we can take the stronghold is a problem!"

"That's it!"

Even Zhu Wu, the commander of the Ninth Company, said with a wry smile: "Wen Jie, if you blame yourself so much, I will simply shoot myself and apologize, how can I blame you for this accident?" If you want to blame me, you should blame me! ”

Everyone was relieved in turn, Li Wenjie breathed a long sigh of relief, barely squeezed out a smile, and said:

"Okay, I understand everyone's intentions, merit is merit, fault is fault, about my fault, I will personally go to the regiment headquarters to ask the regiment commander for guilt."

"Everyone packed up, the battlefield was cleaned up, and they were ready to withdraw to the garrison in time, and in addition, the reinforcement troops were notified and I don't know what the situation was."

Zhu Wu hurriedly said: "The instructor is right, don't cry and mourn, no matter how you say it, you have won the battle, even if you are a sacrificed brother, you will never want to see you all with a bitter black face." ”

"Hurry up and clean up the battlefield, blow up the devil's stronghold for me when you evacuate, a platoon leader, arrange some trick mines before leaving, bury some mines, please try the devil reinforcements who rushed over."

"Second platoon commander, take a good look at our captives, if you don't have long eyes, you will be killed directly."

"Yes!"
