*******

In the end, the Japanese army's charge was still beaten. Although they were unwilling to give up, the battlefield was so realistic... Victory is victory or defeat is defeat, and it will not change because of human will.●⌒

When the Japanese retreated, the soldiers almost sank in the trenches like mud.

Zhang Chi also had the same feeling. In the battle just now, he almost had his whole body tightened and put the magazine over and over again, then fired it out at the fastest speed, and then put the magazine on and shoot again... Once he relaxed, he was like a tight spring suddenly relaxed, and he no longer had any strength.

"Platform leader!" After a long time, Xiao Zhejiang said with some gratitude: "Fortunately you found the devil who was pretending to die, otherwise... we are afraid that we will all..."

Xiao Zhejiang has no strength to say the rest.

"Platform leader, what should we do next?" Xiao Niu couldn't help asking: "When will we... stay there? If this continues..."

Zhang Chi only glared at the calf, and the big cow kept it back if it was left. The big cow hurriedly grabbed it and dragged the calf back while laughing.

But Zhang Chi knew that this was normal. At least one hope should be given in war, such as when to retreat, when to fight, etc. But the current engineering regiment has nothing, and the only hope is the 200th Division, and the 200th Division is not sure whether it will come. If this continues... the engineering regiment will always be out of ammunition and food.

However, Zhang Chi could not say these words... If he was just a soldier, he could complain a few times, but he was a platoon leader, a platoon leader with dozens of brothers. If even he was discouraged, then his soldiers would have no confidence to defend.

So Zhang Chi can only hold on.

From this point of view, it is really not easy to be a platoon leader.

Wang Mazi also knew the situation on the high ground. As a leader of the regiment, he wanted to replace the first company several times... After all, this man was not a bad man, and he could not afford to deal with the Japanese army in such a row, but the Japanese army almost did not give him time and opportunity to change defenses.

"Why haven't the main force arrived yet?" Wang Mazi asked the adjutant anxiously.

The adjutant was a little helpless, and Wang Mazi had asked this many times.

"Room!" At this time, a correspondent reported: "The main force is still fighting fiercely with the Japanese army near Pingmanna because the main force has retreated from Pingmanna. As soon as they turn around, they collided with the pursuit of the Japanese army. However, the division said that they will arrive before dawn, so we must stick to it until tomorrow!"

"Yes!" Wang Mazi nodded, then couldn't help but sigh.

Stick to tomorrow...they don't have that much ammunition in their hands.

So the 159 Highland received two good and bad news: the good news was that they only had to hold on until dawn, and the bad news was that there was only one and a half base left in ammunition, which was barely enough to withstand the two charges of the Japanese army.

The word "barely" here is actually light... because this base is based on the base when soldiers were still using old-fashioned rifles such as Hanyang. A base ammunition is 100 rounds per person. If this ammunition is placed on an old-fashioned rifle, it can indeed fight two battles, but Enfield can shoot thirty rounds per minute... A base ammunition is only more than three minutes for it.

"That's the situation!" said the devil at a short meeting where several platoon leaders were summoned: "The ups and downs, we are asked to stay until dawn tomorrow!"

"Deputy Company Commander..." said the second platoon leader: "If there is ammunition to guard until dawn, there is nothing to say. The ammunition is almost finished... What should we guard it?"

"Yes, deputy company commander!" The platoon leader echoed: "If there are no bullets... would it be possible to fight the Japanese with stones? Even if we are willing to sacrifice our lives, we can't stop it!"

It should be said that what the first platoon leader and the second platoon leader all make sense. Without ammunition, it is likely to be a meaningless sacrifice. What's more, the engineering regiment still has a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. If this is seized by the Japanese army, it will be a big loss.

"His grandma!" The devil cursed in a muffled voice: "If you can defend, you have to defend, you have to defend! If the Japanese are allowed to pass by, do you know what the consequences are? The Japanese will penetrate the important town of Lashio in the rear of our army. Once Lashio is lost, it will not only be a problem for our engineering regiment, but everyone has no way to return to the country. Do you know?"

There was a dull moment in the air, which seemed to mean that the entire expeditionary army's life was on the engineering regiment.

After a while, the first platoon leader asked, "Deputy Company Commander, then... can't I get some ammunition?"

"The troop has sent people to find it!" The devil replied: "But this is the Eastern Front, the line of defense for us Chinese. I hope that there will be some ammunition that the British have too little time to take away when they withdraw... but there is little hope!"

"Deputy Company Commander!" asked the second platoon leader: "If it doesn't work... let's change into our own rifle..."

"Where are you looking for so many guns at this time?" The devil replied without hesitation: "And there are more than a thousand people in this group, can you change it if you say it? Or is it when the fight with the Japanese is in full swing?"

The devil said this, even if it was replaced in batches, it would not be possible, because it would easily lead to ammunition chaos during combat, and even if it was successfully replaced... soldiers who were used to Enfield rifles would need to adapt after picking up the old bolt-pull rifle again.

"What do you think?" Then the devil turned his gaze to Zhang Chi, who had been silent.

In fact, Zhang Chi had been thinking about this question for a long time. When he saw the devil asking, he replied: "There is no ammunition, but our engineer corps has a lot of explosives!"

This is true. The engineering corps often have to perform tasks such as blasting bridges and breaking roads, so naturally, we cannot bring less explosives.

The devil responded dissatisfiedly: "But can explosives blow up the Japanese? It's almost the same as the Japanese who rushed up to die together!"

"It's actually not difficult to blow up the Japanese!" Zhang Chi looked at the trenches around and said, "We just need to bury the explosives into this trenches, and we will retreat first... When the Japanese rushed up, we will..."

"Oh!" The officer immediately understood when he heard this.

"This is a good method!" The platoon leader agreed: "It can save ammunition and kill the Japanese. Then we will have another counterattack... It is guaranteed to beat the Japanese to the point of being beaten."

"Yes!" The second platoon leader nodded and said, "In this way... the next time the Japanese charge, they will have to worry about it. Should they rush up or not? Will they be bombed if they rush up?"
