Hearing someone call his name, the ragged, curly-haired, dirty-covered Erzi looked up blankly, and saw a soldier with a somewhat familiar face walking towards him, followed by two soldiers.

Thinking it was a group of people, the second stunned heart tightened, squatted in the corner, holding his head with both hands, and muttered in his mouth: "I'm not a second stunned, I'm not a second stunned, you recognize the wrong person." ”

"You are just stunned, when I was in the Lin family's house, I still saw you!" Zheng Dayong squatted on the ground and said, "Look at me, Dayong, Lao Zhao's soldiers, Brother Yuan's machine gunner." ”

"Brother Yuan?" The second stunned man raised his head blankly and saw the tall man standing and trembling slightly, "I don't know you, I don't know you." ”

Zheng Dayong stood up a little dazedly, and he didn't quite understand how the second stunned man could become like this.

"What the hell is going on? Brother Yuan, he is a soldier of Company Commander Xu, when the Lin family was in the house, you took the scholar to fight the Japanese devils, and it was Company Commander Xu who sent him to tell us that the person surnamed Qiu wanted to take your command. ”

"Is there such a thing?" Xia Yuan thought that the second stunned man was Zheng Dayong's fellow countryman, but he didn't expect the two to know each other, his brows were locked, and he suddenly felt that this matter was not simple.

When he met the people of the 401st Regiment in the forest before, his eyes have always been very sharp, and he saw the head of the 401st Regiment Qiu and Qiu Zhengfu, still the same as before, but he didn't see the figure of Company Commander Xu.

He thought that he had mistaken and failed to find Company Commander Xu, but now that he thinks about it carefully, there may be some stories in this.

The two stunned people in front of him must know something.

It's up to him to say it or not.

"What's going on, tell me."

Company Commander Xu is a rare good company commander, he left without knowing anything, Xia Yuan initially thought that something had happened, but now that he looks at it, there seems to be another hidden secret, "Is it related to Qiu Zhengfu!" ”

Talking about Qiu Zhengfu, his eyes were cold.

Although he has eagle eyes, he can only use them for observation, not to see people's hearts, these people are born in troubled times, experience turmoil, people's hearts are sinister, can sit in that position, which one is not a human spirit, these people can fool themselves quietly, and they are stupid to think that the other party is a good person.

Amusing.

The second stunned nodded.

The faces of several people changed suddenly, and Zheng Dayong asked: "Is Company Commander Xu dead, he was killed by Qiu Zhengfu's bastard." ”

"Yes! Company Commander Xia, you have to avenge Company Commander Xu, he was killed by Qiu Zhengfu's bastard. The second stunned man cried out, with tears on his face, falling on his black face, leaving mottled marks.

The two stunned 1510 told Xia Yuan what happened carefully.

There are not many people who know about this matter, he is the only one, when Xia Yuan took the scholar to the front line to fight the Japanese devils, Qiu Zhengfu knew that he was not the opponent of the Japanese devils, and he didn't want to watch his brother who had been with him for several years die in the hands of the Japanese devils, so he took away the command given to Xia Yuan by the head of Qiu, as for what he said, before leaving, the head of Qiu told him privately that if Xia Yuan's combat plan was not advisable, he could directly seize the command of Xia Yuan, whether it was true or not, it is unknown.

Before Qiu Zhengfu retreated, he recruited Company Commander Xu, and Company Commander Xu went with the two stunned sons.

They were discussing things in the room, and the second stunned man could only be outside, but he didn't expect that not long after Company Commander Xu entered, he heard a quarrel, followed by gunshots, and Company Commander Xu's shouts for him to run for his life, and the second stunned man was stupid and ran away in a panic.

He was clever, his movements were sensitive, and he ran fast, and when those people chased him, he had already hidden under a door panel and survived by luck, and it is estimated that those people also thought that the second stunned man would die on the battlefield as his name was, so he did not continue to chase.

As everyone knows, the second stunned man was clever, took off his military uniform, randomly pulled out a dirty dress in the ruins and put it on his body, and covered his face with mud, and fled all the way to Jiading.

He wanted to avenge Company Commander Xu, but he didn't even have a gun on him.

"Qiu Zhengfu has been following Head Qiu, I want to look for opportunities, but I can't find them." The second stunned man wiped his tears with his dirty sleeves and said, "Brother Yuan, you must avenge Company Commander Xu, Company Commander Xu turned his face with Qiu Zhengfu for you, he didn't expect that Qiu Zhengfu would dare to kill him." ”

Company Commander Xu was righteous and couldn't see Qiu Zhengfu harming Xia Yuan like this, so he wanted to ask Qiu Zhengfu for an explanation, but he never thought that Qiu Zhengfu would kill himself in order to go back.

It was also before he died that he shouted out the words to let the second stunned man escape.

Xia Yuan frowned, he didn't expect that when he went to the Lin family's house, such a thing would happen in the rear, Company Commander Xu did not die under the guns of the Japanese army, but died under the guns of his own people.

"Only you know about this? Others don't know? ”

"There is also Qiu Zhengfu's group of soldiers, they also know that when Company Commander Xu died, they were all in the room." The second stunned man gritted his teeth and said: "I should have thought of it a long time ago, these people are behind, there are no Japanese devils, but there are bullets in the gun, Xia Company Commander"

Xia Yuan waved his hand, "Don't call me company commander, just call me Xia platoon commander." ”

The names given by the Central Army are all false, and only Lao Zhao really gives up his position to himself.

"Company Commander Xu's revenge will be avenged by me, and his death is also indirectly related to me." Xia Yuan understood that if it weren't for himself, Company Commander Xu might have taken the wounded soldiers in the company to keep up with the large army.

There was another beggar in the team of three.

Xia Yuan decided to change Xiao Liu's outfit, but he was relatively shy in his pocket, and he didn't even have a place to stay.

Sitting at the foot of the steps in front of the house, Xia Yuan asked the second stunned: "I don't know much about the situation in Jiading, so tell me how the situation in Jiading is now." ”

"Brother Yuan, if you ask this, you are asking the right person." The second stunned squatted on the ground and said: "I have been in Jiading for several days, for the matter of Company Commander Xu, I asked everywhere, and gradually learned a lot, now there are no people living in Jiading, and they all went to flee, and those who came in were either refugees from the outbreak of war, or they were defeated from the front line, most of these routs were stragglers, their companies were destroyed by the Japanese devils, and they couldn't find a large army, so they came to Jiading with the refugees. ”

Swallowing his saliva, Xia Yuan saw this, motioned to Zheng Dayong to give him the kettle, drank the saliva, moistened his throat, and said thank you in a daze, and continued: "There are more and more soldiers in this rout, and some local landlords and old fortunes have begun to fight the idea of these soldiers, one or two less, and no one knows, these soldiers are cheap, and if you give a piece of ocean, you will go with you, as long as you give you food." ”

"This landlord is so bold that he even dares to fight the idea of soldiers?" Zheng Da glared with his eyes, feeling a little incredible.

"What is that, look here, there are so many routs, take one or two who knows, no name or surname, they all died on the battlefield." The second stunned glanced at him, "These soldiers are also willing to follow the landlord, this is on the battlefield, so many people have died, many people want to live, the officials let them go to sell their lives, and they don't give money, you say, there are a few who are willing to go to the battlefield to die." ”

Zheng Dayong thought about it carefully, there are really few people who are willing to follow the commander to the battlefield, many people join the ranks of the national army just to mix a bite of food, you don't give food or salary, there are naturally more deserters.

During this period, in addition to those who died in the battle at the Songhu venue, many of them were missing, and the reports were missing, but in fact, the missing ones were either killed by the Japanese devils or became deserters.

Xia Yuan didn't want to know too much about this matter, waved his hand, and asked, "Is there a place to make money in this place?" ”

"Yes, the black market, the black market collects guns and ammunition, gold and silver jewelry, everything." The two stunned looked at the three of them, empty-handed, and their clothes were almost the same as their own, so they could only say to themselves silently: "The price of the black market is changing every day, and there are more and more people, and the gun is becoming less and less valuable." ”

"Unfortunately, we don't have anything on us." Zheng Dayong was a little distressed: "The guns and ammunition were all given to the bastard of the commander." ”

In order to buy a place where they could sit in the car, they gave everything on their bodies to the commander of the troop carrier fleet, and it turned out that the other party had long known that guns and ammunition could be exchanged for money on the black market, and Zheng Dayong was bored.

Xiao Liu kept silent, and the expression on his face was a little angry.

"Except for the black market?"

"No, Brother Yuan, it's all chaotic here, where is there still a place to make money." The second stunned looked at him and said, "Brother Yuan, in addition to the black market, there is another way. ”

Xia Yuan vaguely guessed something and said, "What's the way?" ”

"Make a fortune from the dead!"

“.”

The Japanese army captured Baoshan, the next target is Luodian, the battle of Luodian has been fought for more than half a month, only at the beginning of the battle to attack Luodian once, and since then has never entered Luodian, Chen Cheng, commander-in-chief of the group army, has realized that their opportunities are not much, if Luodian is not knocked down, then the troops around Luodian will also be in crisis.

On the evening of the 6th, it was time for them to give it a go.

The sky was dark, and the black clouds condensed and hovered over Luodian, lingering for a long time.

The troops of the national army had completed their assembly and arrived at the established location, and in the dark night, a glimmer of light refracted by the steel helmet was faintly seen, and the suppressed gasps, exhalations, and the sound of the collision of instruments could be heard in the darkness.

Nine o'clock in the evening.

There was a sharp whistling in the sky,

The artillery of the national army began to roar at Luodian, tearing the twilight of the night, the firelight flickered on the Japanese position, accompanied by a flash of faint light, in the ruins of the combat zone, a large number of national soldiers were seen, holding guns, squatting among the ruins, waiting for the people in front to blow a sharp whistle, under the night, the figure shook.

"The people of China!"

The positions of the Japanese army constantly trembled and roared, and the hoarse shouts of the Japanese devils sounded.

That was the discovery of the attacking troops of the national army, followed by a swaying trajectory from the night, the flickering firelight slanted out, the Japanese army hidden behind the broken wall shot at the attacking national army troops through the gaps, and some national soldiers rushed to the forward position of the Japanese devils, and the Japanese devils fought to the death, and were repelled by the Japanese devils, leaving a large number of corpses on the position.

The artillery of the national army was still extending to the rear.

Listening to the rumbling cannon, the attacking national soldiers understood that it was their artillery, and it was their artillery that was bombarding the positions of the Japanese devils. The morale of the Nationalist army continued to launch a fierce attack on the forward positions of the Japanese army.

Later, according to the records of the Japanese army, the light and heavy artillery of the national army fired at Luodian, and the Japanese positions, artillery units and headquarters were all severely attacked.

At this time, the forward positions of the Japanese army were already in disarray.

This time, the national army was iron-hearted, and all means were used, and the national army's mortars, light and heavy machine guns, launched a fierce attack on the entire line of the Japanese army. The 51st Division on the west side and the newly arrived 174th Brigade of the 58th Division took advantage of the darkness to attack the Japanese positions, threw grenades at the Japanese positions, and fought fiercely all night. At about four o'clock in the morning, the Nationalist army surrounded the Japanese stronghold near Shiqiao, forming a situation of encirclement.

The encircled Japanese fought until they ran out of ammunition and food, but as dawn came, the Japanese mobilized grenadiers and artillery to suppress the Nationalist troops, and finally the 51st Division failed to break through the Japanese defense.

The 14th Division on the east side attacked the line of Longjia Village and Maojia Village north of Luodian, trying to capture the northeast of Luodian and encircle the Japanese army, while the Japanese army concentrated its forces and launched a counter-charge against the 14th Division.

By dawn, the national army had entered the area of Xujiazhai, opposite the road from Chuansha Town to Luodian across the Japanese army.

In front of Luodian, the 31st Brigade of the 11th Division attacked Luodian, and the battle lasted until 3 o'clock in the morning, the national army had entered the bamboo forest in front of Luodian Changjie and began to cross the river to the north, and at the same time, the 67th Division also began to join the battle with the 11th Division, but the Japanese machine gun and grenadier fire were particularly fierce, and a battalion crossed the river, and only about one-third of the troops reached the opposite bank.

There were a large number of floating corpses floating on the surface of the river, the water was dyed pale red, and in addition to the smell of gunsmoke, there was a strong smell of blood in the air.

To the west of Luodian, four uninvited guests came, and with the cover of nightfall, they stepped on the rubble on the broken streets, and cautiously groped forward.

"It's a fierce battle." Zheng Dayong heard the continuous roar, and plucked his ears with his little thumb, which shocked his ears a little bit.

"Is that our cannon?" Xiao Liu looked up at the sky, and it was rare to see arcs in the dark night sky, and he couldn't see it very really.

"It must be our artillery, it has all been fired from our position, it is not our artillery, it is still the cannon of the Japanese devils." Zheng Dayong said to the second stunned: "The dead man's wealth you are talking about is to come to the position and touch the corpse?" ”

"Hmm."

"Hey, I like it."

"Shhhh

Xia Yuan made a gesture of silence, and the three of them immediately closed their mouths.
