Su Yuan's body was shaking on the battlefield full of corpses. He had never fought such a tragic battle. All the soldiers in his two platoons were killed. For a moment, he was so sad that he wanted to rush towards the Japanese.
Li Zhuang, who was behind, saw that he could no longer stay, so he immediately said to the deputy company commander: "Deputy company commander, you lead the team to stay here, and I will pick up the company commander."
The deputy company commander understood that he had a heavy responsibility at this time, and the sharp knife company's mission had not yet been completed. He warned: "Be careful."
Li Zhuang immediately rushed forward. When he arrived at Su Yuan's side, he did not see the Japs shooting. When he helped the company commander up, he saw two Japs approaching from the opposite side with white flags.
"Look what they want to do." He said while holding down the gun he raised.
The two Japs quickly approached. The one with the white flag stepped forward and asked, "What kind of army are you from?"
"We are the Eighth Route Army, what do you want to do?" Li Zhuang replied immediately.
"Excuse me, who is the supreme commander here?" the Japs continued to ask.
Su Yuan waved his hand to stop Li Zhuang and said deliberately: "I am Su Yuan, the commander of the independent battalion of the advance detachment of the Eighth Route Army. I have been fighting for so long and I still don't know which army you are."
At this time, the Japs behind came forward, bowed respectfully to Su Yuan and said: "I saw your bravery and the tenacity of your troops. I am Fujino, the first battalion of the Yoshino Regiment of the Imperial Japanese Army.
Our Captain Yoshino admires you very much, so you asked me to negotiate with you."
"What's there to talk about?" Su Yuan replied coldly.
"Our captain has said that as long as you are willing to lay down your arms, we will ensure that you will receive the best treatment under decent circumstances," Fujino said.
"Let us surrender and have your big dream!" Su Yuan shouted immediately.
"Please see clearly." Fujino said confidently: "In front of you are two field brigades of the Imperial Japanese Army. We are ready to launch the most ferocious attack. You cannot stop it this time."
"Then come here and try." Su Yuan replied contemptuously.
"For the time being, we admire your outstanding command and your bravery." Fujino continued: "I hope you will stop making unnecessary resistance. Moreover, you are covering the Kuomintang troops. I know there is hatred between you.
, it’s not worth it.”
"As long as we fight against Japanese invaders and bandits, we will work hard to rescue them," Su Yuan said.
"But you will have to pay a heavy price for this." Fujino wanted to persuade him again, and he continued: "The Kuomintang troops are fleeing and will not help you, and you have been entangled with us on the other side. As long as we eliminate you, we will soon
We will encircle them."
"Since you are sure of victory, what are you waiting for?" Su Yuan replied: "I'm waiting for a decisive battle with you. Remember, no one of my soldiers will back down."
Fujino not only shook his head, such a person would lay down his arms. But he still said with hope: "As long as you are willing to lay down your arms, we can appoint you as the commander of the Imperial Association Army. We can consider whatever conditions you have."
.”
"Get out!" Su Yuan was already a little impatient.
Fujino had no choice but to leave. Li Zhuang supported Su Yuan and returned to the position. Su Yuan, who returned to the position, quickly realized that the enemy did not launch an attack immediately. There were various signs that they were encircling his position. It seemed that the Japanese were targeting him.
Not giving up yet.
"It seems that we are going to fight the Japanese here to the end." Su Yuan returned to the position and said to the deputy company commander.
"It seems that the Japanese want to surround us, but that's fine, our mission will be completed." The company commander said.
Su Yuan looked at the sky and said: "There are still two hours until dark, but those Kuomintang troops should withdraw. The Japanese will not risk pursuing them when it gets dark."
"Well, then should we break out?" the deputy company commander asked.
"No, we, the rebels, are bound to press on our regiment troops." Su Yuan replied: "We must be nailed here." Then he ordered: "Immediately send someone to inform the regiment commander to report the situation here.
, I hope they will retreat immediately."
"Yes." The deputy company commander responded, and then he called: "Chen Xing."
Chen Xing, the company's correspondent, immediately ran over, "Chen Xing, go back to the regiment headquarters immediately before the enemy forces close up." Su Yuan paused and then said, "Tell the regiment commander that we will fight here to the end. And, you
Don't come back, you and the wounded who retreated must build up our sharp knife company again!"
We must not hesitate about the situation in front of us. Looking at the company commander's expectant and firm eyes, Chen Xing just said, "Everyone, take care!" and then left with his gun.
"Everyone prepare to fight." Su Yuan immediately ordered.
The next battle was even more cruel. Under the cover of fierce artillery fire, the Japanese launched attacks from all directions. Although the Japanese failed twice, they were a little discouraged, especially when they were bombarded by their own artillery shells during the second attack.
He actually ignored his own life and death, which made the Japanese feel conflicted, and their attack was not so brave.
However, the Japs were numerous after all, and there were only about twenty soldiers defending the position. Facing the enemy's siege, the originally sparse firepower was even more unable to stop the enemy's effective attack, and the Japs were getting closer and closer.
Xiao Wu controlled the heavy machine gun alone and launched a fierce fire attack on the attacking Japanese. Suddenly, a shell fell beside him, and the heavy machine gun was flipped to one side. Xiao Wu was also covered by the flying dust, and the Japanese took the opportunity to pounce.
Come up.
Seeing the crisis, Su Yuan jumped out of the position with a light machine gun. The machine gun sprayed fierce flames in his hands. The Japanese's offensive momentum was suppressed again, but Su Yuan suddenly felt his chest shake.
The bullet hit himself in the chest and penetrated.
Su Yuan still gritted his teeth and persisted. The Japanese 38 rifle had strong penetrating power, and it only caused a penetrating wound in his body. Su Yuan had already realized that the last moment had come.
The Japs were approaching the position, and the mines in front of the formation were detonated one after another. However, the Japs still swarmed up, and after continuous blocking, the bullets in the hands of the soldiers had been exhausted. Now the soldiers still have grenades in their hands.
In the continuous battles with the enemy, due to the special nature of several battles, the soldiers never threw grenades at the Japanese at close range.
After the grenade exploded, the Japs quickly rushed into the trenches. Perhaps the Japs had figured out the reason for conquering this steel force. They actually wanted to capture prisoners. The deputy company commander on the other side who bore the brunt was entangled in a fight between two Japs.
"Old man, I'm going to take the first step." The deputy company commander fiercely pulled the grenade hanging on his waist. In the sharp knife company, no one will be a prisoner. For this reason, in critical moments, everyone has a
The grenade that died with the Japanese.
Su Yuan looked at the sun that was about to set in the west. The light emitted by the half of the sun that was still exposed had weakened and was already turning red. At this time, his blocking mission had been completed, and he no longer cared about the Japanese rushing into the trenches.
"Our mission is completed." Su Yuan shouted in the sunset.
At this time, the soldiers felt a tragic and heroic mood in their hearts. One soldier pulled the grenade on his body and jumped out and rushed towards the group of Japanese soldiers. Another soldier rushed out immediately...
Su Yuan watched with distress, and he suddenly shouted: "Throw all the grenades out."
Not caring about the damage caused to themselves by the explosion of grenades, the soldiers threw a dense barrage of grenades at the approaching Japanese soldiers. Suddenly, countless orange-red flames erupted in front of the position.
The Japanese did not expect such a blow at all. The other party undoubtedly did not care about their own lives. What they wanted now was to ask for the highest price for their last lives.
After the fires erupted from a series of explosions, the world suddenly fell into darkness. The figures on the position became a little blurred, and it was even difficult to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. For a while, the position became somewhat calm.
Su Yuan was the first to react. He jumped out and threw a Japanese soldier to the ground. The two of them rolled into the trench. Soon, Su Yuan took off the Japanese soldier's helmet. With just one click, the Japanese soldier's head was smashed under him.
Smashed.
When Su Yuan stood up, he had a Japs helmet on his head. He held the newly captured rifle in his hand and started shooting at the Japs wearing helmets nearby.
"Put on your helmet and fight with the Japs." Su Yuan shouted while shooting. The soldiers who were reminded immediately grabbed the helmets from the Japs on the ground and continued to fight with the Japs. The soldiers who had grabbed the guns threw their weapons in all directions.
Start shooting...
This was a real melee. It was already dark. There were figures wearing helmets everywhere and it was impossible to distinguish between ourselves and the enemy. There were only constant gunshots on the position. However, the Japanese soldiers did not fight as decisively as the soldiers who regarded death as home. Especially some Japanese soldiers.
After firing, they finally realized from the screams of the opponent that they had hit one of their own, and the Japanese were even more hesitant. There were Japanese soldiers rushing up from all directions, which made it even more difficult for them to distinguish. It was far worse than the soldiers who faced the Japanese soldiers who were charging at them.
Just shoot.
Finally, the Japs on one side felt timid in the darkness, and then all the Japs evacuated. The position became silent again, but not a single person could be seen.
