At Dongguan of Teng County, the exchange of fire between the two sides continued into the afternoon. The walls were covered with wailing wounded and cold corpses, both inside and outside the walls.
However, when the setting sun was blocked by the walls of the inner city, the roar of propellers sounded again in the sky, and at the same time, the artillery outside the city also began to roar. But this time, their targets seemed to be all aimed at the city of Teng County.
Dongguan!
The sound of explosions, shelling, and inaudible screams filled everyone's ears, but this time, Li Sui'an, including Li Sui'an, did not run away. They all stayed on their respective positions, resisting the bombardment of artillery shells and aircraft, and continued to move towards
The enemy outside the city continued to pull the trigger.
However, as explosions continued to sound around them, fewer and fewer comrades were still able to fire back, and even the company commander was lying in a pool of blood.
The command of the remaining soldiers was handed over to Li Hexian, but he also did not issue a retreat order. Instead, he directed the people to repel the first wave of attacks and then the second wave of attacks until there were only three of them left.
When there were about ten people, the third wave of Japs had already rushed in through the blasted gap!
The grenades have long been used up, and most pistol bullets only have half a magazine left. Even for some surviving recruits like Li Sui'an, their pistols had run out of ammunition an hour ago.
When these people had used up the last bullets, Wei Ran, who was about to take out his gun from the leather notebook, heard Li Hexian standing not far away shouting, "Big knife!"
Upon hearing this, the remaining 20 or 30 people immediately pulled out the large knife that had been carried on their shoulders, shook off the coarse cloth wrapped on it, and got ready to fight hand-to-hand with those little Japs who were several times their size.
"kill!"
Li Hexian roared loudly and rushed forward with his sword in hand!
"Kill! Kill! Kill!"
The men from Sichuan and Sichuan, as well as Wei Ran, who had long been jealous of the killing, waved their swords one after another and rushed towards the rising Japanese without hesitation.
Although Wei Ran has never practiced bayonet fighting, he was surrounded and beaten by the female students almost every day at the Hongqi Forest Farm, and was trained alone by Culp. Now his fighting ability is not weak at all.
Seeing a kid subconsciously raising his feet and taking a lunge, Wei Ran almost raised his gun and stabbed him, he picked up a large knife, knocked the opponent's gun barrel with the back of the knife as thick as the head of a chopstick, and swung away the sharp bayonet.
, and with a fierce upward movement, he directly cut a long wound on the opponent's right arm from the elbow.
Before the opponent could scream in agony, Wei Ran had already released the handle of the knife, and struck the opponent's crotch with one knee, and the second hit his chin.
After easily dealing with the first one, Wei Ran picked up the opponent's Sanba Gaigai, which had a bayonet mounted on it, and turned around to meet the second Japs who rushed over.
It was still swaying and flirting, and finally there was an additional stab. When the lengths of the cold weapons of both sides were equal, the 38 cap in Wei Ran's hand directly pierced the opponent's chest, and then he turned the butt of the gun and pulled it back.
After easily getting rid of the second Japs, a pistol suddenly appeared in Wei Ran's left hand. He pointed it at the Japs in front of Li Sui'an and pulled the trigger again.
After the crisp gunfire, Li Sui'an, who had already fallen to the ground, saw a ball of blood bursting from the ears of the little Japanese who was grinning and preparing to stab his body with a bayonet, and then fell to his side with the bullet.
Putting away his pistol, Wei Ran quickly ran to Li Sui'an, pulled him up and shouted, "I'll protect you, you load the other gun. If the Japanese come over, I'll stab him first. Load the bullets."
Shoot immediately!"
"Okay! Okay!" Li Sui'an hurriedly bent down to pick up the rifle, and tremblingly began to insert bullets into the chamber.
At the same time, Wei Ran also faced the third Japanese. Almost as soon as the weapons in their hands collided, Li Sui'an behind him pulled the trigger in time.
In this panic, a shot hit the little devil's thigh. Wei Ran reacted quickly enough, took a step back, stabbed forward hard, and simply stabbed the opponent in the chest.
He didn't care whether it was a foul if he fired while fighting with the bayonet, and he even forgot to think about whether the shot just penetrated and injured someone else. And Li Sui'an behind him was a recruit who was on the battlefield for the first time, so naturally he didn't care about it at all.
Unexpectedly this happened.
The unruly cooperation between these two was quite effective, especially after Wei Ran consciously moved in the direction of Li Hexian and pulled him into the group. In a three-on-one situation, he had no opponent.
But even so, the number of Japs on the opposite side was twice as many as theirs, not to mention that many soldiers had already died under the opponent's bayonets.
Seeing that the remaining less than ten people had been forced under the city wall, and the remaining Japs also rushed into the gate of the inner city, Wei Ran, who was furious, saw the opportunity and stabbed the Japs opposite him in the chest with all his strength.
He turned the butt of his gun, then raised his foot and kicked the opponent hard while he screamed. He took out his pistol again, pointed it at the Japanese who besieged them, and tapped the trigger again and again!
In the clear sound of gunfire, the Japanese who were busy stabbing fell to the ground one after another. The few Japanese who had rushed into the inner city gate also stopped, turned around and squatted down, and began to load bullets into their rifles.
Almost at the same time that Wei Ran fired the trigger at those Japs, intensive gunshots also came from the direction of the inner city. Those Japs who had just rushed in immediately screamed and lay on the ground.
Wei Ran breathed a sigh of relief, and then he noticed that the cotton-padded jacket on the right side of the ribs had been torn open by a bayonet, and yellow-white cotton also emerged from the damage.
After touching it, it didn't seem to hurt him. He then removed the pistol magazine and took a look, and then found that the magazine was empty.
Pulling the slide, the last bullet jumped out. Wei Ran caught it and stuffed it into the magazine and put it into the gun. Then he pulled the top of the slide again and put the gun into the cowhide book.
"It's really yours! It's like a magic trick!" Li Hexian came up with a big 38-inch pestle and patted Wei Ran's shoulder hard, and then grinned because it involved the wound made by the bayonet on his ribs.
"Third brother, are you okay?" Li Sui'an asked nervously. He was almost the best protected person. He was surrounded by Wei Ran, Li Hexian and others who shot him coldly throughout the whole process.
"It's okay, skin injury."
As Li Hexian spoke, he looked around. Not counting Wei Ran, Li Sui'an and himself, there were only five people left alive. Almost all of these five had failed, and one of them was the most serious.
Both thighs were stabbed with bayonets.
Before they could help each other and walk into the inner city gate, a group of soldiers had already ran out of the city. After seeing the few survivors, they quickly helped the injured people into the inner city.
Before he could pass through the city gate filled with corpses, Wei Ran was stunned. In just one day, the inner city had turned into ruins. The rutted stone road was densely covered with large and small
Amid the craters and broken corpses, most of the buildings on both sides were left with only bare walls. Further away, in the center of the city, there was a raging fire.
What made his eyes even more dizzy was that the Chinese medicine shop where the injured were lying last night was gone. Far away, he could even see the hospital bed pressed by the beams and the Chinese medicine cabinet burning with flames.
.
Walking in despair on the stone road full of corpses, Wei Ran's fists clenched tighter and tighter. The corpses under his feet, the wounded and wailing civilians and soldiers around him, and the survivors who were crying and looking for their families in the ruins, all of this,
It was like a blunt bamboo stick poking into his eyes and throat inch by inch, causing tears to flow down his face, but he couldn't make a sound at all.
In the doorway illuminated by the setting sun, Li Hexian looked at Wei Ran's back and sighed silently. Then as if he thought of something, he reached into his pocket and took out the bullet casing he picked up on the city wall in the morning.
At the same time, I couldn't help but think of the terrifying scene I saw at that time.
After hesitating for a long time, he finally put the cartridge case back into his pocket, turned around and walked back a few steps alone. After searching around where Wei Ran once stood, he finally picked up a 9 mm
The shell of the handkerchief.
As night fell, the firefight that lasted all day finally stopped. Wei Ran, who had found nothing on the ruins of the Chinese medicine shop, returned to his position at Chengdongguan in despair.
"Eat something!" When Li Hexian saw Wei Ran coming, he immediately handed over the food and drink he had left for him in advance. There was even a boiled egg in the bamboo basket covered with a piece of coarse cloth.
Wei Ran just picked up the celadon teapot in the basket, filled the coarse porcelain bowl with warm tea, and drank it in one gulp.
Seeing that Wei Ran had no intention of eating, Li Hexian shook his head towards his cousin who was about to say something, pointed at the wooden box not far away, and said casually, "Since you have no appetite, let's replenish some ammunition in advance, this little devil said
Not sure what is suitable, I rushed to it again.
Wei Ran nodded silently, walked to the ammunition box, opened a pack of Mauser pistol bullets, and loaded the bullets one by one into the magazines of the big-bellied box.
Almost immediately, Li Hexian also walked over and sat down next to Wei Ran. Then he actually took out a heavy paper bag from his pocket and handed it to Wei Ran.
Wei Ran took it over without knowing why, opened the paper package, and was surprised to find that there were 10 9mm handkerchiefs inside!
Seeing that Wei Ran didn't say anything, Li Hexian smiled in an easy-going manner, "A fellow platoon leader of mine owns a 90-plus cigarette smoker. He got it from a foreigner when he was a comprador. I only used 20 taels of shredded tobacco.
I just got these bullets from him."
"you..."
Li Hexian stood up before Wei Ran finished speaking, and walked back, waving his hands and saying, "Nothing, thank you for saving Sui'an."
Wei Ran opened his mouth hesitantly, but finally silently accepted this precious gift.
The ruffian reminds you: please collect it after reading it.
