The setting sun was like blood, and a bright red sunset slowly fell in the west, dyeing the horizon blood red, and even the horizon was the same color.
The gunfire on the position finally stopped, and the front of the position fell into silence.
The Japanese retreated, but they left behind hundreds of corpses and three light tanks, and fled back in confusion.
During the day today, the Japanese launched no less than a dozen attacks in succession, each time more fierce than the last. By the end of the attack, the soldiers' eyesight was a little blurry. Whenever they saw a moving figure, they would pounce on it and slash it, regardless of whether it was the enemy or one of their own.
Already.
The company commander almost cut his soldier in half with a big knife. Fortunately, the veteran had quick hands and eyes and hugged him in time, thus averting a tragedy.
However, although the Japanese attack was repelled, the soldiers suffered heavy losses. Until now, only twelve people, including the company commander, were left on the position. The remaining people all died heroically in the fight with the Japanese.
Already.
Corpses stained with blood and soil were dug out from inside and outside the position, and then neatly arranged in the trenches behind them. These were all sacrificed soldiers, and no one was available to send them down for the time being, so they were placed here.
Health worker Xiao Cui was looking back and forth among the piles of corpses. She had a very bad expression on her face because just now a soldier said she saw the corpse of a big man.
The big man was the soldier who shouted to marry her after the war. The two of them had already had a crush on each other, but they just didn't have the nerve to tell her off.
While searching, Xiaocui's tears were already in her eyes and could fall at any time.
From beginning to end, Xiaocui looked through every corpse, but she didn't find the big man's body. She suddenly felt relieved and her hope resurfaced, "It seems like he's not dead."
At this moment, a rush of footsteps sounded from outside the trench, and two soldiers jumped into the trench carrying a stretcher. They were also covered in mud and blood and looked exhausted.
Xiaocui's eyes fell on the stretcher, her face turned pale, her fingers were pressed hard into her palms, and her legs seemed to be a little out of control.
"Hygienist, help him quickly, he is dying." The two soldiers did not see Xiao Cui's face, but rushed in front of him, staggering and almost falling due to lack of physical strength.
Xiaocui's lips were as white as snow, and her teeth had bitten her so hard that they bled. She struggled and threw herself in front of the stretcher, staring at that familiar face.
The person who came was none other than the big man, the honest machine gunner who liked silence and always laughed, the man she liked!
I saw him lying quietly on the stretcher, with blood everywhere on his body. The right half of his arm and right leg had been blown off, and the roots were gone. The wounds were bandaged randomly by the soldiers with leggings, and the blood was still flowing.
spewed out.
Xiaocui opened his eyelids and took a look, then lay on his chest to listen to his heartbeat, then fell down next to him, feeling that all the strength in her body was drained away.
The two soldiers also understood what was going on. They took off their military caps and squatted on the ground with their heads in regret. "It's all our fault. It was for us that he rushed towards the Japanese turtle shell with explosives in his arms."
Going up."
It turned out that when the big man saw the Japanese tank chasing several soldiers, he rushed forward with the explosive pack, and then the Japanese tank lay there and stalled, and that was what happened to him.
Xiaocui couldn't hear anything at this time. In her eyes, she only saw that familiar face and his care and love for her. There were only bits and pieces that the two of them were familiar with.
In the first trench, the veteran hugged his Hanyang-made weapon and leaned quietly against the wall with his eyes closed and resting. The battle just now consumed a lot of his energy, and he still feels that his arms, legs and feet are shaking.
, these are all signs of weakness.
The company commander staggered over from the side, sat down next to the veteran, then lit a cigarette, first gave the veteran a puff, and then took a puff himself.
The veteran opened his eyes and stared at the trench wall opposite, which was less than two meters away from him in a straight line. Sitting here, he could clearly see every piece of shrapnel on it.
The company commander took a long puff of cigarette and said, "Veteran, how long have you been in our unit?"
"I don't know, I seem to have stayed in your boy's army the longest." The veteran paused, seemed to remember something, and chuckled, "Hey, I think we didn't stay in any army for more than three months.
Then he took the guy and ran away."
Looking at the veteran who was smiling like a weasel trying to steal a chicken, the company commander also laughed and cursed, "You are a bitch, you are just a piece of rat shit. You have ruined all the good soldiers."
When he first arrived at the company commander's office, the veteran incited several soldiers to flee together, but was caught by the company commander and almost killed him.
When the company commander mentioned this matter, the old soldier's old face, which was as thick as a city wall, turned red. He muttered, "I really don't know what kind of evil disease I have, but I live here all the time. It's so damn grandma's fault."
What an evil thing."
The company commander burst out laughing, and the laughing veteran rolled his eyes and stared at him.
After laughing, the company commander's expression became serious. He looked at the veteran and said, "Veteran, let's go."
"Let's go, what are we going to do?" The veteran didn't react for a while, but then he understood and immediately stared, "Where are you going? The Japanese are right on the opposite side. Can't you let me find them?"
"After you leave here, you can go to other units. With your marksmanship, which unit will you not be able to defeat?" The company commander's voice deepened, "You still have an old woman in her seventies at home. If you die,
Here, who will give this old man his last breath?"
"If I escape like this, my mother will probably not be able to close her eyes even if she dies." The veteran sighed, "My father died in the hands of the Japanese, and my sister was also raped by the Japanese. I and his mother's little devil
It’s a grudge that cannot be resolved.”
The company commander didn't know what to say. He saw something called determination in the veteran's eyes and knew that he couldn't be persuaded.
"Company commander, the Japs are coming up again." At this moment, a soldier responsible for monitoring the Japs' movements shouted from the side. This voice woke up everyone in the trench. People stood up and looked towards the front of the position.
Under the dim moonlight, black shadows were moving forward on the wasteland in front of the position. It could be seen that they were all cautious, as if they didn't want to make any noise.
"Get ready to fight!" the company commander shouted, then threw himself behind the bunker, holding up his shell gun and staring at the Japanese on the opposite side.
The veteran lay down next to him and calmly placed Hanyang Zao on the bunker. Then he looked over and said, "It's strange. Normally, the Japs don't move out at night. Why did they change their habits today?"
The company commander also felt strange, because according to common sense, the Japanese attack during the day and rest at night. This has become a Japanese rule. Today is indeed a bit abnormal.
Outside the position, the Japanese made no sound, and moved forward with their heads down. Because they were far away, they could not see their figures clearly in the night. They could only see dark shadows moving forward slowly.
With.
Everyone in the trenches was ready for battle. All the bullets were placed in front of them, and the grenades had their caps removed and placed beside them. The machine gunner opened the last box of bullets and filled the grenades.
The magazine was placed next to the Czech machine gun, and he held the machine gun and adjusted the muzzle.
Everyone waited patiently, no one said anything, but there was a tragic atmosphere in the trenches.
This Japanese attack may be the last time the soldiers fight. The enemy has committed about a large group in one charge. With so many people, twelve people are simply a drop in the bucket. Loss of position can happen at any time.
At this moment, there was another person beside the company commander. She placed two grenades next to the company commander, then placed a rifle on the bunker and stared ahead.
As soon as the company commander turned around, he saw clearly who was coming, and he couldn't help shouting angrily, "What are you doing here to join in the fun of the health team? Go back quickly."
It turned out that six health workers from the health team had no idea what was going on and went into battle with weapons in hand.
The captain of the health team, a petite girl, said to him, "Company Commander, you only have so few people left. If a fight breaks out, will there be any wounded?"
The company commander was stunned by his question.
Yes, with just twelve people, they might all fall in front of the position in one Japanese charge. Then what use would the health team behind them be?
Thinking of this, the company commander said, "Okay, then let's stay."
The captain of the health team cast an excited look at him, then stared at the enemy with his gun in his hand and said nothing.
The Japs were still stroking forward unhurriedly, and were almost close to the firing line. The company commander raised his hands, preparing to drop them.
The soldiers held their breath, put their fingers on the triggers, and waited for the company commander's order.
But at this moment, the company commander's eyes suddenly froze, and then he looked past the Japs in front of the position and landed on the vast night sky behind them.
There, three flares, one red and two green, were slowly rising into the sky. The brilliant colors were particularly conspicuous against the dark background of the night sky.
Flare! I don’t know why the company commander’s heart skipped a beat when he saw this sudden flare. It seemed like something unexpected was about to happen.
The moment after the flare took off, dazzling arcs of light appeared on the flanks shared by the Japanese and the Japanese. Those thousands of bright and dazzling arcs of light seemed like the most brilliant meteors in the world, roaring towards the opposite side.
The enemy's camp.
At the same time, on the other side of the field, tanks also revealed their majestic bodies. The main tank guns fired together, throwing large-caliber shells towards the Japanese camp on the opposite side.
There was a deafening roar above the head. In the horrified eyes of the people, a behemoth rose slowly from the horizon. Surrounded by more than a dozen armed attack helicopters, it moved quickly towards this side like dark clouds, covering the
Half the sky.
The company commander dared to say that he would never forget this scene in his life.
