"Otherwise, if the little Japanese shell falls, even if you are not injured, if the crater collapses, you will be buried in it. The width is a problem, and isolation of sand is needed to prevent the shrapnel from being spread after the shell explodes.
Wait, these issues must be considered carefully. It is best to avoid the bomb crater one at a time. Don’t worry about digging. It will protect your lives at critical moments."
"That's what matters most."
Xia Yuan considered all aspects. It would be difficult for the Japanese who lost their artillery positions to organize a powerful artillery bombardment. They could not break through the second and third lines of defense in a short period of time just by relying on infantry charges. As long as they persisted longer, once the strength of the two sides was compared,
It is exposed that all soldiers participating in this blocking battle will become heroes of Nantianmen.
When the halo is added to the body, it is the time for their soul to return.
But he also knew that this blocking battle was destined to not be easy. It would be a test of blood and flesh. After experiencing the harsh Changjin Lake and the heroic Shangganling, for Xia Yuan, such a blocking battle was actually
It is relatively simple, but for the defeated soldiers, this blocking battle is definitely the most difficult and brutal.
The gap in military strength, the gap in the quality of individual soldiers, and the gap in coordination put the Sichuan Army at a disadvantage. Whether it can win the war depends on whether the soldiers can exert strong combat effectiveness and be brave enough to die.
spirit, and a tenacious will to fight.
Xia Yuan kept wandering around the position, giving encouragement to the defeated soldiers from time to time. He knew in his heart that if he wanted to keep the soldiers' high fighting spirit, he had to stay with them.
He stood on a soil slope and looked at the lush mountain forest in the distance. On the lush mountain forest skyline appeared the white belly of a fish when the sun rose. A wisp of destructive red sun appeared halfway from the distant skyline, like
A red crescent moon is dotted with shadowy tree branches and mountain tops.
Such a beautiful scene made Xia Yuan not relaxed at all, his eyes were filled with solemnity.
Destroying the Japanese artillery position only gave him some peace of mind. Next, he would lead this group of defeated troops to face the attack of 5,000 Japanese troops. It was unknown how long 700 people could survive.
Although the second line of defense is not as stable as the third line of defense, it has also established several firepower points. Several veterans with superb marksmanship serve as gunners at the firepower points. Such firepower points can withstand the Japanese small-caliber individual infantry missiles.
For bombardment, there is a lack of light and heavy machine guns, so veterans can only be used to form firepower groups.
This was also one of Xia Yuan's measures to deal with the Japanese attack.
Other measures are reflected in the trenches.
The sky shimmers, a new day has arrived.
When Xia Yuan found Long Wenwen, he was sitting with Meng Fanglia and the others. He sat down next to them: "The news about the attack on the Japanese artillery position last night can be revealed. It has been brewing for so long, so it should be about the same."
Already."
That's right, Yu Xiaoqing was used as a spear by him. With the help of Yu Xiaoqing, he revealed what happened at Nantianmen. And what was recorded in that notebook can very well reverse the current predicament of the national army and change the incompetence of the national army.
Status, these are secondary, the most important thing is that the people in the book are known to the people, and the determination of the soldiers of the expeditionary force to bravely fight the Japanese army is also known to the people.
This is what Xia Yuan is interested in. He believes that after the incident is fermented, just like the Sihang Warehouse, it will arouse the determination of the people to fight against the Japanese army and even attract international attention. The 400 soldiers from the Sihang Warehouse fought against the Japanese army and fought with the Japanese army in a heroic manner.
After the battle attracted international attention, European countries came to China's aid one after another, and the Czech Republic even donated the blueprints of the Czech light machine gun to the national army.
When Meng Fanlao heard Xia Yuan's words, he sat up and looked directly at Xia Yuan: "Tuanzuo, what else do you have to do?"
Long Wenwen said: "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
"Hey."
Meng was annoyed by the noise and lost his temper. He folded his hands and sat in the trench to rest, waiting for the Japanese to attack. However, he still opened his ears, wanting to listen to the conversation between the two.
"Members of the group, is this going too fast?" Long Wenwen seemed concerned: "I think we should let things simmer for a while."
"There was so much noise last night that even a deaf person could hear the explosion coming from the Japanese side. Moreover, we will have to rely on Yu Xiaoqing in the future, even to get supplies from him, so we still have to tell him about this kind of thing.
"
Xia Yuan said in a deep voice.
Long Wenwen asked again: "What if he wants to lead his troops to garrison at Nantianmen?"
Xia Yuan smiled and said: "I have considered this situation a long time ago, so let him come in. Such a great achievement cannot be eaten by our Sichuan Army. Only by sharing the cake will no one be interested."
Don't worry, if you want to hold the whole cake in your arms, it's impossible. Shangfeng won't watch you swallow the cake."
Long Wenwen looked at Nantianmen in silence.
Xia Yuan patted his shoulder: "For such a big contribution, not to mention Yu Xiaoqing, even those one level higher than him will rush over to eat. You see, after we blow up the Japanese artillery position, we will use
It won't be long before you receive news of reinforcements from your superiors."
"Then let's..." Long Wenwen had already followed Xia Yuan's train of thought.
"Let them come if they come. We will withstand the Japanese attack. The Japanese are anxious and their attack will be more fierce. Not to mention a brigade or a division, I think they can pull it over."
Xia Yuan's eyes were filled with an inexplicable light: "After all, if a dog is anxious, he will jump over the wall."
Once the Japanese army reaches the end of the road, they will inevitably go crazy, which is the so-called failure or failure.
In fact, Xia Yuan didn't have much confidence in holding on to Nantianmen, and he didn't intend to really hold on here to the point of dying for his country. All he wanted was what he and the Sichuan Army deserved.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Go ahead and get this matter over with. Within a week, our situation will be much better."
Xia Yuan had confidence on his face, and that confidence could be seen from standing on the shoulders of giants. He comes from the future, knows the importance of the power of public opinion, and knows how to use public opinion.
But in fact, he was just taking advantage of the people's patriotism. But while he was taking advantage of the people's patriotism, he also fought against the Japanese on the battlefield.
Long Wenwen left, and Meng Fanlao came over. He looked at Xia Yuan, "Are you working on something again?"
Xia Yuan did not hide anything from Meng Fan. He looked up at the sky and said: "I have said long ago that the deeds of the expeditionary force should not be buried, and their stories should not be buried. Remember I asked Ah Yi
Do you remember the notebook? I gave it to Yu Xiaoqing, and Yu Xiaoqing gave it to the newspaper. Now all the people in China know that there is only one army left in the entire Burma battlefield, and that is us. We are the last face of the expeditionary force and all
The last hope in the eyes of the people, ordinary people, students and workers."
There was a blazing fire in his eyes: "We must fight this battle well!"
Meng Fanlai felt that his scalp was numb and goosebumps appeared all over his body: "You have thought about this a long time ago, right?"
Xia Yuan nodded.
Meng was annoyed and asked again: "When?"
Xia Yuan did not answer his question, but looked at the defeated soldiers on the battlefield and said, "What do you think of you?"
Meng Fan was stunned for a moment, thinking about Xia Yuan's question, "It's not that good, we are just a group of defeated soldiers who retreated from the battlefield."
Xia Yuan shook his head: "Remember what I said before, if others look down on you, do something to make others look up to you. It's not terrible to suffer defeats all the time. What's terrible is that you haven't learned from every failure.
Every failure makes you think that you can't win and will lose forever. If you fall, you are willing to lie on the ground."
His eyes were profound: "I am looking for the lost soul in your hearts!"
Meng Fanglia looked at Xia Yuan and stared at him blankly, "You are looking for our lost soul. Have we lost our soul? No, we are fine."
Xia Yuan looked at the defeated soldiers, and then looked back at Meng Fan: "You guys should be fine, if I hadn't appeared, you would have been living aimlessly in the shelter, just like the walking dead. The arrival of Yu Xiaoqing will destroy you."
After being incorporated, you were sent to the Burmese battlefield to be used as cannon fodder, and you were asked to be used as guns. You died in a state of confusion, without knowing from the beginning to the end what you were living for in this life."
He said: "I will tell you why, but not now! Get ready. Before dawn, the Japanese will launch a probing attack on Nantianmen."
Xia Yuan stood up, patted the dirt on his butt, turned around and left, leaving Meng Fangla sitting on the ground blankly.
He looked at Bu La, Mi Long and others. He found Veterinarian Hao and asked him: "You are old, tell me, have I lost my soul?"
Vet Hao looked at Meng Fanle as if he was possessed by an evil spirit and said, "If you lost your soul, you wouldn't be like this now."
Mi Long narrowed his eyes and asked: "What the hell? What's wrong? The soul is gone. Let the dead soul summon the soul for you. Doesn't he know how to summon the soul?"
Meng Fan looked at the strange looks in the defeated soldiers' eyes and knew that the souls in their mouths were different from the souls in Xia Yuan's mouth. He was thinking about what the souls in Xia Yuan's mouth were, but no matter how he thought about it, it would not matter.
I haven't figured out what the soul in Xia Yuan's mouth is.
At dawn, the vanguard of the Japs launched an attack on Nantianmen and lost their artillery positions. The Japs did not launch an artillery attack on Nantianmen. Everything seemed so normal, but in this normality, there was a different flavor.
.
Xia Yuan gave up the first line of defense. They already had the weapons and ammunition to deal with the Japanese army for a day, and there was no need to hold on to the first line of defense. Moreover, the Japanese army had no artillery support. Even if the Japanese died at the front of the second line of defense,
They can also send people to pick up the weapons, ammunition and individual equipment on the Japanese soldiers.
The defeated soldiers on the second line of defense discovered the Japanese and blew a trumpet made of bullet casings. The trumpet sounded on the second line of defense. From a distance, the defenders on the third line of defense also listened.
At the sound of the trumpet, they quickly entered combat mode and moved the few weapons and ammunition to the second line of defense.
Xia Yuan led Doubi and Yang Danzi to find a suitable sniper position. Without the threat of Japanese artillery, the sniper position chosen by Xia Yuan was extremely eye-catching, and this position could overlook the entire second line of defense, with four 38-type rifles.
The rifles contained more than 400 rounds of ammunition. The two men packed the bullets in bullet bags, loaded the bullets into the magazine of each rifle, and leaned against the wall of the trench.
"Gun!" Xia Yuan lay on the bunker, using his eagle eye to see the attacking Japanese army. He picked up a Type 38, aimed at the small commander of the Japanese army behind, and pulled the trigger. There was a gunshot from Bagou.
The Japanese commander fell to the ground.
"Yangdanzi, look, the regiment commander knocked down the little Japanese commander with one shot." Doubi, who was lying on the trench, widened his eyes and said in shock.
"It's not like you haven't seen the regimental commander's marksmanship before. When we were on the first line of defense, as soon as the little Japanese commander showed his head, he was knocked down by our regimental commander."
Although this was not the first time they saw Xia Yuan's marksmanship be so accurate, they still couldn't hide their excitement every time they saw such accurate shooting.
I only saw Xia Yuan pulling the bolt and firing. The crisp sound of gunfire spread from this high point to a far distance. After five gunshots, five Japanese soldiers fell to the ground. The two of them stared with their eyes wide open.
He did not forget to get a gun for Xia Yuan, loaded the empty gun with bullets, looked up again, and saw five more gunshots, and five more Japanese were knocked down, lying on the ground wailing in pain.
On the frontal battlefield, with Xia Yuan's long-distance sniping, the battle on the front line was easy. There was no artillery bombardment organized by the Japanese army. However, with the impact of artillery and those few firing points, the Japanese would lose a large number of soldiers.
A small group of Japanese soldiers were quickly wiped out by the soldiers of the second line of defense. The remaining dozen Japanese soldiers saw that something was wrong and were about to retreat. Xia Yuan fired two shots and knocked down two Japanese soldiers.
After the soldiers broke out, other Japanese soldiers rushed into the jungle in a panic.
"Gun." Xia Yuan threw the empty 38-style move to Doubian and said again.
"Captain, they have already run away." Yang Danzi reminded.
"I'll put another shot in every Japanese corpse."
Xia Yuan's eyes were cold, he picked up the 38-style and continued shooting. Some who were not dead and wanted to pretend to be corpses and wait for the Chinese people on the mountain to come down and die with them were also shot by Xia Yuan one by one. After turning on the eagle eye
Xia Yuan saw this group of Japanese devils clearly, and also knew the parts where he was shot. Several of the shots were not fatal. The Japanese devils were still alive, but they could not withdraw and were left on the position.
, trying to pretend to be a corpse.
The Japs once used the trick of pretending to be corpses to kill many Chinese people, so much so that there was a rule on the battlefield later that every corpse of the Japs had to be re-gunned. The price for not re-gunning was
