Walking a hundred meters forward, I saw a ruins, the walls were covered with bullet holes, and there were many stinking corpses piled up on the ground. If I looked carefully, I saw that they were soldiers of their national army. The Japanese devils had killed them.
The body was removed and dumped here.
Everyone covered their mouths and noses, calling the Japanese devils beasts, and became more determined to follow Xia Yuan.
The Japanese reinforcements arrived, and the defense line that was originally guarded by only two detachments suddenly increased in strength. The Japanese 18th Regiment was able to concentrate the forces on the defense line.
The strength of the Japanese troops here has increased to the size of a small team. From the broken roofs of the ruins in the distance, the dancing firelight can be vaguely seen. The Japanese have lit a fire in the house. It is quiet all around. There are insects chirping, which can be vaguely heard.
From far away, the chirping birds of Japanese soldiers could be heard.
All this can be heard by listening to the sound and identifying the position, which is quite the feeling of clairvoyance and ears.
Xia Yuan kept the Japanese army's arrangement in mind and led them quietly close to the Japanese position. He caught a glimpse of the Japanese hidden sentry in the distance, turned around and gestured to a few people, then pointed to the position of the hidden sentry and said:
A gesture of wiping the neck.
Everyone understood, put bayonets on their guns, held on tightly, followed Xia Yuan, and moved forward cautiously.
The Japanese secret sentry was placed in the ruins. The mud and tiles scattered on the ground made a crunching sound when they stepped on them. Everyone gasped and tried their best to control the movements of their feet.
When he was more than 20 meters away from the Japanese secret sentry, Xia Yuan made a gesture to stop advancing. Under the shocked eyes of several people, he strode towards the Japanese secret sentry. When he was seven or eight meters away, he started
Got it.
"Thanks for your hard work."
What came out of my mouth was Japanese.
The Japanese soldier in the secret sentry was stunned for a moment and subconsciously responded: "It's not hard work."
Pfft, then he felt as if his neck was scratched by something sharp. He opened his mouth wide, trying to make a sound, but when the words came to his mouth, he made a series of whooshing sounds.
The Japanese soldier tilted his head and fell into the hidden sentry.
Xia Yuan waved his hand, signaling them to come over quickly. The few people who saw the gesture recovered from the shock and rushed into the secret post. They took off the bullet bags and grenades from the Japanese soldiers and stuffed them into their arms. Zheng Dayong held them in his arms.
He squatted on guard at the secret whistle with his gun drawn, his eyes full of vigilance, and he nervously looked back at the situation inside the secret whistle.
After a while, a Japanese soldier was stripped clean of bullets, grenades, and a marching canteen.
"Brother Yuan, let's set up a few more hidden whistles for the Japs. The bullet clips will be filled with bullets." Zhao Shiguo patted the bullet clip on his waist and was extremely happy. The bullets on the two Japs were so good.
Many, they picked up the bodies of two Japanese ghosts and seized 200 rounds of ammunition. The bullet clips on everyone's body were replenished.
The most important thing is that they exerted almost no effort. They simply eliminated two of the Japanese hidden sentries. If they worked for a while, they would probably have cleaned up all the hidden sentries arranged by the Japanese.
"Don't do too much, or you will be discovered." Xia Yuan walked out of the secret sentry and spoke calmly. The Japanese's secret sentry was on a shift system. Every once in a while, a Japanese would come over to take over. The more secret sentries destroyed, the more likely they would be discovered.
The faster.
He had to steal a Japanese devil before he was discovered.
"Walk!"
Xia Yuan didn't explain much.
Secondly, there are not many hidden sentries arranged by the Japanese. There are only a few of them. They are separated by hundreds of meters. It is too troublesome to go back and forth. Just go there. With night vision and eagle eyes, the Japanese's hidden sentries can see.
He could basically figure out the location. They were all on several very important high points, overlooking the surrounding river beaches and ruins. The reed swamp was a good cover. Although the Japanese had planted a Japanese secret sentinel in the reed swamp, they still had a lot of trouble.
They got rid of it.
This area can only be said to be temporarily safe. Xia Yuan did not take them to stay here for a long time, but kept digging deeper into the Japanese defense lines.
Just when Xia Yuan crossed the river to sneak attack the Japanese position.
At the national army position in the rear, a communications soldier quickly ran out from the battalion headquarters, came to the position of the third company, and found Lu Jingguang: "Company commander, the battalion commander wants you to come over."
Lu Jingguang built a ladder on the earthen house, climbed up the ladder, lay on the roof of the house, and observed the Japanese positions with binoculars. The Japanese were very rampant. They lit many bonfires between the house and the fields, and they could hear the communications.
He put down his telescope when he heard the soldier's voice, turned around and asked:
"What does the battalion commander want from me?"
"Company Commander, how do I know? Could it be that what you just said was too scary?"
"Is it scary? What I'm telling you is the truth." Lu Jingguang took back his telescope. Everything seemed normal in the Japanese position, so he ran down the ladder and said, "What's going on with Xia Yuan? What does the battalion commander mean?"
"Company Commander, you are too bragging. The battalion commander suspects that there is no such person at all, and said that even if there is, he will let you take him over to have a look."
The communications soldiers at the battalion headquarters were quite helpless.
Previously, the commander of the third company ran to the battalion headquarters and told the superiors in the battalion headquarters that their company had a genius who could hit the Japanese machine gun fire points with a gun. The grenades could be thrown farther and more accurately than the artillery shells. The fourth company
When the position fell, he held on to the Fourth Company's position alone.
In short, the task of making Xia Yuan boast about his miraculousness, as if he was there, was not a big task. This matter eventually became known to other troops in the camp, and the Japanese army stopped fighting, and everyone was idle.
This matter gradually spread, but everyone had their own defense zones. Many people wanted to see this legendary man, but they never had the chance.
Then, the news became more and more serious and mysterious, which alerted Lu Jingguang's boss, Zhang Guangqi of the 160th Battalion. He didn't want to care about this matter. Several of his company commanders boasted about their achievements for more than a day or two.
, especially Lu Jingguang, this guy is quite talented. In the Luodian battle, he proved himself by being able to enter with three companies.
However, in Zhang Guangqi's view, it was the reinforced company that suffered huge casualties and had no choice but to withdraw from the battle, and was picked up by Lu Jingguang before the Qiao family house was defeated. As for the sharpshooters and bombardiers he mentioned, they were completely false.
Son.
He has been in the army for many years and has seen many sharpshooters. On the battlefield, when the enemy charges, he can hit the enemy accurately, but he has never heard of someone who can throw a grenade more than a hundred meters away and hit the enemy accurately.
Above your head, you can even use a rifle to accurately shoot the Japanese machine gun fire points.
Are you kidding? Is there really such a person in this world? In his opinion, there is no such thing. The battlefield is never decided by one person, but by the efforts of a group of people. As Lu Jingguang said, one person leads them to win the battle.
It's simply impossible for Qiaojiazhai.
Helplessly, more and more mysterious rumors spread among the companies in the camp, and even the fourth company was destroyed. The Japanese crossed the river. It was this man who single-handedly pushed the Japanese back. There were Japanese ghosts floating on the river.
The corpses were all his own doing.
It’s simply ridiculous!
Zhang Guangqi immediately decided to kill this evil trend and make everyone think that this thing is true. Then everyone will look forward to one person who can lead them to defeat the Japanese devils. That person is obviously not himself, or even some kind of person.
To a certain extent, his prestige exceeds his own.
A person who is nothing but has caused everyone to talk about him.
Zhang Guangqi wanted to find out whether the sharpshooter and heroic bombardier Lu Jingguang boasted about were true or false.
The communications soldier came with Zhang Guangqi's order and looked around, "Company Commander Lu, where is the sharpshooter you mentioned?"
Lu Jingguang said helplessly: "They crossed the river and went to the Japanese army's position. You came at the wrong time. If you had been a few minutes earlier, you might have been able to see him."
When the communications soldier heard this, he became more convinced that Lu Jingguang was bragging. What a coincidence that when he came, the so-called marksman and bombardier had crossed the river. How could there be such a coincidence?
What's more, there are Japanese soldiers on the other side, and the superiors have not issued any orders to attack the Japanese positions. What is he going to do when he crosses the river now?
The battalion commander is right, this is just a piece of fiction and does not exist at all.
The communications soldier decided to tell the battalion commander the news and turned to leave. Lu Jingguang thought for a while, since it was the battalion commander who was looking for him, he had to go and talk about it in person.
Battalion Headquarters.
A kerosene lamp exuded a dim halo. Battalion Commander Zhang Guangqi, the adjutant, and the company commanders of each company sat around a small square table. Previously, Lu Jingguang brought back the news of the arrival of Japanese reinforcements. They did not believe the news that Lu Jingguang brought back.
Not long after Lu Jingguang left, his superiors passed on the information that Japanese reinforcements had arrived at the river bank.
This attracted Zhang Guangqi's attention, and he immediately sent communications troops to notify the company commanders of each company to attend a meeting at the battalion headquarters. Almost all company commanders had arrived. Zhang Guangqi looked at the time and glanced at the people in front of Xiaofang's table, except for the fourth company who had died in the battle.
The chief didn't come, and only Lu Jingguang hadn't arrived yet.
"Batalion Commander, I think it's better to send a communications soldier over to inform you." said the commander of the second company.
When he received the intelligence from his superiors, Zhang Guangqi had just sent out a communications soldier to find Lu Jingguang in order to spread the rumors about the so-called marksman and bombardier, but he did not notify him of the meeting.
Zhang Guangqi waited quietly and said, "Don't rush, it's still early."
The first company commander said: "This old Lu is really serious. If he insists on making up a rumor about a sharpshooter, many of us believe it. Battalion Commander, you also know that the battle has reached this level and even the fourth company has been defeated."
, if a person like this comes out, it will not shake up our camp."
Everyone is very aware of this matter. When the soldiers are in a low mood, what will it be like if a sharpshooter who can kill the enemy suddenly appears? The soldiers in the camp have no culture, and many soldiers have no independent opinions.
After hearing a few rumors, they became convinced.
It is certainly a good thing to have a sharpshooter, but it is absolutely wrong to fabricate things that are not true.
The second company commander nodded and responded: "If it's true, it's okay for everyone to believe it. The key point is that this is something that doesn't exist at all. Everyone knows that the third company was able to take down Qiao's house just by strengthening the company.
, the strengthened company has almost fought with the Japanese. The third company went up and picked up a leak. If we really want to push the third company forward, the third company will probably not even have more than 80 people left."
By coincidence, Lu Jingguang walked in from outside the door and heard the voice of the second company commander. A trace of anger flashed across Guo Zi's face.
"Old Qi, please stop talking." The first company commander on the side tugged at the second company commander. The second company commander turned around and saw Lu Jingguang, so he closed his mouth and said nothing. Everyone in the room looked at Lu Jingguang and saw
He sat down, Zhang Guangqi patted the table and said:
"Let's discuss business. According to the intelligence from our superiors, the Japanese reinforcements have reached the other side and strengthened the defense on the river bank, especially the front of our 160th Battalion. According to inference, the Japanese strength is at least two squadrons, or even
More."
"In order to cope with possible emergencies, each company must strengthen its defensive positions. Lu Jingguang, your third company has a heavier task. Most of the fourth company's positions will be left to you for defense. Please pay attention in the next time.
, the Second Company will be transferred back and focus on watching the river in Wodian."
Currently, the Fourth Company's position is defended by a platoon from the Second Company, but as the Japanese army's strength on the other side of the river increases, their frontal strength also needs to be strengthened to prevent the Japanese army from launching a sudden night attack.
Lu Jingguang responded, nodded, and then said, "Battal Commander, I know you don't believe me, but it doesn't matter. Tonight, the deputy commander of our company crossed the river with a few people. There is no movement there now, I guess.
They've succeeded."
"What?"
The people in front of the square table were stunned, and their expressions immediately showed disbelief.
The first company commander frowned and said, "Lao Lu, did you receive the mission? Or is this a decision you made without authorization?"
He glanced at Zhang Guangqi vaguely.
Sure enough, when the first company commander said this, Zhang Guangqi's face became a little ugly.
Lu Jingguang's face was calm: "We have been fighting in the direction of Baoshan for a day. It is only a matter of time before we start fighting here. Doesn't the first company commander think that the Japanese army's reinforcements on the river bank are just to prevent us from crossing the river? Have you forgotten the four
How was the company destroyed? It was because of insufficient preparation. When the Japanese came, their response measures made serious mistakes. The Japanese's artillery fired a salvo and beat the fourth company to pieces. If it weren't for Xia Yuan, the Japanese
The Japanese have already crossed the river from the Fourth Company position."
"The Fourth Company failed to block the Japanese attack, but one person did it. Lao Lu, you are such a boaster, are you really not afraid of the battalion commander questioning you?" The first company commander squinted his eyes and looked at Lu Jingguang, "Or, you think
Your so-called deputy company commander took his men to the other side of the river and waved us around to prove that your boast was true?"
