Chapter 1195 The Battle of Jardine's Mountain is Coming
In the early morning, the morning glow is rising, and the moist air is refreshing.
Qi Zhenhai, Liu Jintang and Chen Yucheng got up early, washed up, and after breakfast began to prepare for war. This was already the fourth day of their implementation of the defensive policy. The war has continued until now. Although a lot of weapons have been consumed and food is about to run out, However, the soldiers remained high-spirited and not discouraged at all. Everyone firmly believed that reinforcements would definitely arrive.
On the battlefield, Qi Zhenhai, Liu Jintang and Chen Yucheng shuttled through the trenches and separated to boost the morale of the army soldiers.
"First brigade commander, I will leave the position east of Jardine's Hill to you. You are a veteran in the army and someone I brought out with my own hands. I believe you can hold the position. If you fail, I will remove you from your post."
"Second Brigade Commander, I will leave the position west of Jardine's Hill to you. You are also a veteran. I believe in you, just like the First Brigade Commander. If you fail, I will also remove you from your post."
"Third Brigade Commander, the position in front of Jardine's Hill is the most important first place. Here, the largest number of foreign troops will be concentrated, and they will also be attacked by the most violent firepower from foreigners, so you must be careful and consider carefully. The distribution of troops must be to hold the position. If it fails, it will not only be as simple as dismissal, but you will bear the consequences."
Qi Zhenhai walked among the three brigade commanders and gave them orders.
He targeted the major brigades and regimental commanders to let the backbone forces play their role.
"Sun Sanpao, we are fighting the foreigners. Your cannon is a good thing. Once the cannon is fired, as soon as you close your eyes, countless foreigners go to see the king of hell. Moreover, the division commander gives you the command of all the artillery fire of a division. You But the center of gravity must be aimed at. The life of one of our brothers is in your hands, so you have to shoulder the burden."
Liu Jintang had a smile on his face, but his eyes were very sharp.
Sun Sanpao patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Brigadier Liu, I'm a cannon specialist, so I'm sure."
Liu Jintang smiled and came to the front position again.
He came to the first battalion commander of the second regiment of the third brigade, patted the first battalion commander on the shoulder, and said sincerely: "First battalion commander, among the strength of our division, your battalion is the only one that is arranged at the highest position. In front, the foreigners rush up from the front, and the first one they face is your battalion. It can be said that your position is the center of gravity. As long as your position is held, the rest of the brothers can sit back and relax, my head. I can also keep it on my head. For the sake of my brothers and my head, I hope you can cheer up."
His words made the commander of the first battalion feel that he was being taken seriously.
It is a matter of life and death for everyone.
Isn't this important enough?
The commander of the first battalion stood up, performed a military salute, and said loudly: "Commander Liu, please rest assured that the soldiers of my first battalion will fight to the end. No matter how ferocious the enemy is, the soldiers of the first battalion will definitely defeat them. They would rather die than retreat." Even if we fight to the end, no soldier will admit defeat. In one word, we will win."
Liu Jintang nodded solemnly and continued to encourage the battalion commanders. He and Qi Zhenhai encouraged different targets, targeting each battalion commander, and the methods of encouragement were also different. Qi Zhenhai was strict with himself and had strict requirements for the generals. Liu Jintang's approach is to make all battalion commanders realize that they are in the most important position and to maximize the potential of each battalion commander.
At the same time, Chen Yucheng was also encouraging the soldiers.
What he was looking for was not a general, but an ordinary soldier.
He sat down among the soldiers, looked at the familiar faces around him, and said with a smile: "Brothers, we have been holding on for four days. It is now the fourth day. The President's troops are already on the way. As long as we continue If you persist, you will be able to wait until the arrival of the president. Having said that, foreigners are very tall, but they also have one nose and two eyes. There is nothing special. They are defeated by us every time. It is impossible to defeat us. We Who are we? We are soldiers brought out by the president, and we are soldiers who can never be defeated."
The soldiers were greatly encouraged after hearing this.
What excited the soldiers most was that they were soldiers brought out by Li Zhen.
This sentence is enough.
Chen Yucheng went around to cheer up the ordinary soldiers and boost their morale, and then he met up with Qi Zhenhai and Liu Jintang. After the three of them walked around the position, they stabilized the situation and ensured that today's battle arrangements were completed before squatting in the trench and waiting for the bottom of the mountain. movement.
At 8:15 in the morning, a large number of troops from various countries began to gather at the foot of the mountain.
"I'm coming,."
"Humph, even if foreigners come, we are not afraid of beating them."
"Persevere to the end, and the president will definitely come."
Each soldier has a strong fighting spirit in his eyes.
Qi Zhenhai squatted in the trench, stretched out his head, and used his binoculars to look at the soldiers from various countries gathered at the foot of the mountain. His heart was calm and calm, and he ordered in a deep voice: "Get ready. Move the enemy closer before attacking."
Soon, soldiers from various countries began to charge.
The distance between him and the position was quickly shortened. When the distance was less than 100 meters, Qi Zhenhai immediately opened fire and shouted: "Shoot, aim and hit." In an instant, dense bullets poured out in a straight line. Shooting at the soldiers who were constantly charging up, the ones in front were British soldiers. Some of the soldiers at the front were shot several times and were directly beaten into sieves.
The bullets failed to stop the British soldiers' charge, and they continued to charge.
There was continuous artillery fire and bullets flying everywhere.
The position was already in chaos, because Jardine's Hill encountered fierce attacks from all directions.
The consumption of ammunition is increasing rapidly.
The soldiers from the British, French, American, Russian and other countries attacked too hard and consumed ammunition too fiercely. This battle started in the morning without stopping and continued directly into the afternoon. The ammunition of the soldiers defending the position was significantly reduced, especially However, firepower in many places has begun to weaken, and armies from various countries have begun to gradually approach. Faced with this situation, Qi Zhenhai, Liu Jintang and Chen Yucheng are powerless.
Make bricks without straw.
Without ammunition, even if the soldiers are brave and tough, it will be difficult for them to defend themselves against the enemy.
Around six o'clock in the afternoon, it was getting late, the sun was setting, and the sky was dyed blood red. Countless corpses had piled up on the battlefield. Whether they were British soldiers or defensive soldiers, they all suffered heavy casualties. Qi Zhenhai The ammunition of the soldiers under his command is getting less and less, and in many places it takes only a few people to form a small amount of firepower.
The defensive firepower of Adams, Russell and others' positions weakened, and they were extremely excited, constantly urging the soldiers to attack.
At night, Qi Zhenhai must be captured. The offensive continued. British soldiers, American federal soldiers, and soldiers from other countries in the front had already rushed into the position and started fighting hand-to-hand. Qi Zhenhai stood up with a machete in his hand and struck out. He shouted: "Brothers, fight until the last moment and follow me to kill the enemy."
Not far away, Liu Jintang and Chen Yucheng also began to take the lead in the battle.
The three most important generals, as well as the rest of the brigade commanders and regimental commanders, all stood up and led their soldiers to fight. This battle was fought to the point where there were no bullets. Regardless of victory or defeat, they were all heroes.
ps: Third update, call it a day; Li Zhen will appear, haha...
