One hundred and twentieth eighth chapter all destroyed
Chapter 128 Total Destruction
He quickly rushed to the west and saw that a large group of enemies had crowded to the edge of the trench. They were throwing things into the trench and setting up ladders on it. At this time, two other people also arrived, and four people rushed to the west at the same time.
The enemy opened fire.
They fired one shot after another, and a hail of bullets knocked down more than a dozen bandits. The bandits behind them turned and fled.
The whistle sounded again, and everyone dropped their hot rifles and ran to the other side. The soldiers who could barely crawl out were helping to load the ammunition. This half hour was the busiest half hour in Wang Wu's life. Running,
Shooting, running, shooting, the sergeant's whistle was blowing sharply, and it seemed that it would never stop. Everyone was so tired that they were panting and almost fell to the ground. In the end, the enemy retreated.
"How many bullets are left?" Wang Wu asked the sergeant.
"There are a lot of bullets, and there are more than 2,000 rounds," the sergeant said. "There are also a lot of guns, but no one is using them."
"Don't save bullets. Hit the enemy when they come up. Don't let them get close to the embankment to fire arrows. Our people are too precious."
Now, there are only 24 of them left, some of the patients died one after another, and the rest are in critical condition. Two more were killed in the battle.
There are only seven people who can pick up a gun and fight, including Liu Bin who has almost never used a rifle.
The survivors were exhausted by the fierce fighting. If they fought like this for another day, they would be completely wiped out.
"Bury all the dead people in the camp." Wang Wu ordered, "Collect their belongings and bury them separately. The burial should be better."
He returned to the command post tent, took the work team's documents, manuals, maps and other things, as well as the IDs of all the work team members, and took them to the field stove outside, struck a match and lit them.
Then he threw in the documents, currency notes and other things he had on him. The fire was blazing, and black paper ashes flew out of the stove.
Soon, my head will be cut off. Wang Wu stared at the fire and lit a cigarette, thinking: I am going to die.
Unless a miracle occurs, the destruction of their small team is doomed.
He thought of his wife, children, and the land and house at home. He was a rich farmer. After the bandits were eliminated in Daolu Village, and without the bandits' extortion, he started working hard and managed the family business successfully.
He became a local agricultural demonstration household. The Tiandi Association even approached him to ask him to join the association. And he was eager to try, planning to use "Australian agricultural methods" after joining the association and do something big.
Wang Wu knew that after his death, he would be laid on a cannon cart in great splendor and buried in Cuigang. There would of course be gunfire and a funeral ceremony; he would pay his wife, children and parents a large sum of money.
With the death pension, his family will always be taken care of by the Australians: no greedy relatives, tribesmen and villagers will come to seize his family property, and no one will dare to bully his wife and children because they are "survivors" -
―In the civil system of the Crossing Empire, this is a noble title. Only the family members of those who died in battle can enjoy this title and the preferential treatment that comes with it.
He knows all this - there will be no worries after his death.
He returned to the tent that served as a temporary rescue center - the air inside was filthy and filled with the smell of death. Liu Bin squatted next to a soldier who had just died, covering his face with his hands and sobbing.
Wang Wu wanted to say something to comfort her - but he couldn't say anything. He was not like Chief Du and Chief Dong who could say a lot of very reasonable things about everything.
He thought for a long time and then walked out. The sergeant was cleaning his rifle. There were piles of rifles beside him. He cleaned each rifle carefully.
"You'll have to use it later," he said. "You can't do it without wiping it clean."
Wang Wu said: "It would be great if there were grenades."
"I heard that all of them were used up in Chengmai. Now they are only distributed to the field army in the direction of Qiongshan." The sergeant said, "When our battalion went to Chengmai to fight, each person was issued two. It's really useful! Diu
Use one to blow up a large area - truly get the 'Thunder in the Palm'!"
"Have you disposed of the excess?"
"We are only half a platoon, and we don't have any paperwork or anything like that." The sergeant said calmly, "As for the military ID cards, I have collected them all and burned them. Only this one -" He pointed to the two ID cards on his chest.
chapter.
This is the recently issued "Chengmai Battle Victory Medal" and "First Counter-Encirclement and Suppression Victory Medal".
"The bandits definitely don't want this thing, so I'll keep it."
"Bury it and leave it to your family. It's always a thought."
"I don't have any family," the sergeant said with a bitter smile, "I didn't have time to get a wife - but luckily I didn't get a wife."
As he was talking, a whistle sounded from the observation deck: "The enemy is lining up!"
The fighting broke out again.
In the afternoon, the bandits came to the village, pulled down all the thatched roofs of the villagers, and harvested a large amount of dry firewood and weeds. They threw them in bundles upwind and lit them on fire. The wet straw emitted thick smoke.
Float towards the camp.
The threat from the smoke was not great at first - the smoke was far away and was blown away by the strong wind before it reached the camp, but the line of sight was obstructed after all. Groups of bandits took advantage of the cover of the smoke to attack section by section.
*, and continued to pile up the burning thatch toward the earth embankment. Finally, a pile of firewood was almost lit beside the trench.
Wang Wu and others could only blindly shoot at the crowd in the thick smoke as quickly as possible, but they could not hinder their smoke-setting action. In the end, the entire camp was enveloped in a choking thick smoke - the team members and soldiers all wore
I got a gauze mask soaked in water. It was barely able to hold up.
The bandits finally gathered all their forces and rushed over together. They advanced in the smoke, and they themselves were overwhelmed by the smoke. However, there were so many bandits that they finally filled a section of the trench under the cover of thick smoke and climbed up the earth embankment.
The bandits' faces were covered with water-soaked cloths. They blinked their eyes that were so irritated by the smoke that they couldn't open their eyes, and brandished their swords and guns blindly. They coughed violently as they rushed forward.
Bows and arrows were fired at random into the camp, and all the people who could move retreated to the trenches on the west embankment. Wang Wu looked at the people around him and there were only three people left.
The sergeant had been beheaded by bandits on the embankment. His rifle was waved in the hand of a bandit.
There are more than a dozen rifles in the trenches. These rifles cannot fall into the hands of bandits!
"Everyone, smash everything you don't need to grab." Wang Wu said and slammed his short-barreled rifle on the stone. The barrel and the butt were separated from each other, and the parts flew apart.
Others also smashed the extra guns in their hands. Then everyone piled all the ammunition under the earth embankment and threw a torch on it.
The copper flash cap crackled violently like a firecracker, and the gunpowder exploded immediately. More than a thousand rounds of Mini bullets were propelled by the gunpowder like a huge firework, and the bandits let out a scream.
Wang Wu picked up a long-barreled Minie rifle used by soldiers and fixed the bayonet. The others also followed suit. The moment he jumped out of the trench and prepared to fight, he saw Liu Bin, who was squatting on the ground and shaking, raised his
The bayonet stabbed hard into his throat.
Wang Wu yelled: "Kill!" These were his last words.
Liu Yixiao has been very busy these days. The five or six work teams sent out have already started work, and the highway extending from Lingao is also in a state of preparation. The most important thing is to prepare for the land acquisition as soon as possible.
Work.
Danzhou Qianhu Station refused to surrender, so Yu Zhiqian had no choice but to launch an expedition against Qianhu Station. Soon the military households in various guard stations were forced to surrender and accept reorganization.
In accordance with the policy, a group of thousands of households, hundreds of households, and small banners who were riding on the heads of military households were arrested and used as labor force for the Communist Party. Ordinary military households were reorganized. The military households' farmland was relatively concentrated.
It is the most suitable place for large-scale commercial planting. Military households used to be official tenants of the Ming Dynasty, and now they are agricultural workers on state-owned farms in the empire, which is quite reasonable.
Ye Yuming has dispatched a work team of the "Tiandihui" from Lingao to prepare for the attack on the farmland of Qianhu Station in Danzhou.
"Although the buildings in Qianhusuo City and various camps are somewhat old and dilapidated, their structures are generally in good condition. It does not cost a lot to repair them and they can be used in the future - it is better than the shabby houses with mud walls and straw roofs.
Much better." Yu Zhiqian boasted about the "remarkable results" of his expedition.
He also left troops ranging from a platoon to a company in the guard city and each camp of Qianhusuo, responsible for reorganizing and training the military households. Danzhou is an important town of "Zhenli", and the crossing group has no
Before the complete reunification of the Lebanese region, necessary deterrence must still be achieved against the Lebanese region. Therefore, the military households cannot simply cancel the incident, but must also ensure that they continue to maintain a certain degree of force.
Liu Yixiao expressed concern: "It is too unreliable to directly form a militia and take control of the armed forces without being transformed by the Communist Party."
"No problem, the transformation will take its time. Now we have to 'suppress Li' first." Yu Zhiqian told Liu Yixiao that he learned from Xiaoqi, a military household who surrendered, that since they defeated the official army in Chengmai, there have been some dissidents in Li District.
There are signs of stability. Some Dong masters are working together and seem to have some intentions.
"At the end of summer and early autumn here, the Li people will invade the villages in the Han area on a small scale, so every time this time comes, everyone must 'prevent Li'."
The news of the great defeat of the army caused an undercurrent to surge in the Li district, which had been quiet for decades since the Li Revolution in the late Wanli era. The Li people were not good men and women, and there had been sharp conflicts between Han and Li for a long time.
For Qiongzhou, the defeat of the army gave them an excellent opportunity.
"The report said that there has been no movement among the Li people in Lingao, and the matter of opening a trading house in Li District has been discussed -"
