The two gunboats were always Jiang Tietou's primary focus. When Japanese soldiers began to carry out shells on the gunboat where Oishi Keiichiro was on, he waved his hand and shouted: "Stop the pursuit and withdraw."
"Aren't we going to kill them all in the camp?" A student soldier questioned,
"The little devil is ready to shoot, please retreat."
"yes."
"Brothers, retreat, remember to pick up the grenade from the little devil." Meng Taishan shouted, pulled Huang Zhongming and said, "Let's go." He ran with him for a few steps, and then said, "Boy, what you just did was Not bad.”
Huang Zhongming smiled,
"Boom." The sound of artillery fire sounded, and the next moment, the sound of "Boom," the shells bursting through the air came, and the students quickened their pace and ran towards the river embankment.
Huang Zhongming ran towards the river embankment behind Meng Taishan, Zhang Dazhu and other cadets. Suddenly, he saw the dead Japanese man at the foot of Meng Taishan move. The next moment, the blood-covered Japanese man got up. , raised his hand, raised a sharp bayonet and pierced Meng Taishan's waist.
At this time, Mengtaishan was in front of him on the left, and his attention was used to judge the direction of the cannonball, so he did not notice the danger close at hand. Huang Zhongming became anxious and shouted: "Be careful. "The man had already pounced on him. When he pounced out, he stretched out his left hand. He originally wanted to grab the Japs knife-holding arm, but something went wrong with his calculations, and it happened to be blocked by that knife. In front of the bayonet, he was stabbed by the bayonet. The bayonet hit the bones of his right forearm. The force brought his arm up and pressed it against Meng Taishan's waist. Meng Taishan had already turned around. He reacted very quickly. When he turned around, he had already swung the rifle in his hand, and then hit it hard on the helmet that the little devil was approaching. With a "bang" sound, the devil's head and helmet were hit hard and fell to the ground, and his body was also injured. Being led away, the hand holding the knife fell down and cut a deep gash on Huang Zhongming's arm.
Zhang Dazhu and others also reacted, and the Japs fell to the ground. Zhang Dazhu stomped up, hitting his neck. Then, Huang Zhongming only heard a "click", and the Japs' neck vertebrae were immediately broken. , "NND, you dare to sneak attack our company commander." Zhang Dazhu cursed and crushed the Japanese soldier with the sole of his foot. The Japanese soldier's neck suddenly became bloody, but his face turned over, his eyes were still fierce, which made several other trainees look at him. He was very unhappy, and one of them hit him with the butt of his rifle, smashing his face into the helmet and turning it into a pile of blood and mud.
Huang Zhongming was so painful that he was sweating all over his body and his eyes were black, but now he felt extremely nauseated. He lay on the ground and started vomiting with a "wow" sound.
He knows his own affairs, and Meng Taishan knows that if Huang Zhongming hadn't blocked him just now, he would have been seriously injured at least if he had not died. And if he had been injured in the kidneys, it would have been more difficult for him to accept than killing himself. Squat He picked up Huang Zhongming and said to Zhang Dazhu: "Quickly, disinfect and bandage him."
Just when Meng Taishan and the others were attacked by the Japanese pretending to be dead, the first shell exploded.
The explosion was not loud, but it made Jiang Tietou change his color immediately. After the shell exploded, a cloud of yellow smoke flew quickly, and then was blown by the northwest wind to cover up the retreating students. "Poisonous gas" Bomb, TMD, put on a gas mask." After shouting, he took out a towel from the bag on his waist and shouted again: "Run, run."
The cadet army attaches great importance to the popularization of battlefield common sense. Therefore, the cadets in the reconnaissance camp are very aware of the dangers of gas bombs. All the cadets began to run wildly. Many of them turned their gas masks over while running. The students who had inhaled the poison gas turned pale. The first shell did not hit the crowd, so even the students who had inhaled the poison gas only inhaled a small amount. They persisted and ran back to the river embankment, and immediately So I picked up the kettle and started to save myself.
After fighting for several hours, when the counterattack was launched, there were less than 150 survivors from the two companies of the reconnaissance battalion. In this counterattack, although they killed more than 300 Japanese, and killed the remaining Japanese, they They almost rushed into Xiushui, but they also suffered about 60 casualties, including more than 20 wounded soldiers.
Among the twenty-odd wounded soldiers, including Huang Zhongming, nine were incapacitated. They could only be evacuated on the backs of their comrades. Although Huang Zhongming was only injured in his arm, he suffered from violent vomiting and even the light green stomach The mucous membranes were vomited out, and the person suddenly became as weak as noodles. As a result, Meng Taishan had no choice but to continue hugging him and running away.
When the little devil's second shell fell, the trainees had already divided into two camps. Some were unweighted. They all ran as fast as rabbits and quickly rushed out for more than thirty meters. The other Some of them were carrying the bodies of wounded or fallen comrades.
The second bomb exploded among the three living cadets. The one carrying the body of his comrade on his back was directly overturned. In order to take the body of his comrade back, he refused to stop and put on a gas mask. Therefore, he was After the light yellow poisonous gas enveloped him, although he held his breath in time, he was still unable to resist the poisonous gas.
The poison gas bombs fired by the Japanese army are tear-jerking. In principle, these gas bombs are not fatal, but they are extremely irritating. In just a few seconds, the student felt itchy eyes and nose, and he couldn't help but feel itchy. He began to cough continuously, and the coughing allowed the poisonous gas to seep into his mouth and infect his throat. He struggled to carry the body of his comrade again, and then felt a chest tightness, and his breathing immediately became heavy. ,,
Many cadets had already hid behind the river embankment. When someone saw this scene, they immediately took off their gas masks and shouted: "Zhang Sanqiao, put on your gas masks."
But it was already too late. Under the gaze of dozens of cadets, Zhang Sanqiao climbed to his feet and bent down to grab his comrade's hands to lift him up. The next moment, he coughed violently, and then he fell to his knees. Next, he pulled out the gas mask in the cloth bag, but he only pulled out half of it and fell to the ground. He tore his neck with both hands and scratched it until it was bloody... Finally, he lay down next to the body of his comrade. His body convulsed at first, and then slowly stopped moving.
The situation of the other two trainees was better than that of Zhang Sanqiao. During the run, the injured Wang Zhouyang pulled out his gas mask and put it on Xu Qing who was carrying him. The shell exploded. Although Xu Qing was hit by a The shrapnel scratched his left leg, but he continued to rush forward without stopping. As a result, only Wang Zhouyang's eyes were infected by the poisonous gas, which was not fatal.
Jiang Tietou was deeply shocked by Zhang Sanqiao's death. He stopped, turned around and shouted: "Throw away the bodies of the brothers for now. Everyone, please withdraw quickly. This is an order."
Jiang Tietou's order was timely, but for the wounded and the trainees carrying them, they still needed a certain amount of luck to safely evacuate to the river embankment.
