More than 30 Japanese soldiers poured into the trench that was more than 300 meters long. Since the two sides were fighting hand-to-hand in the trench, the machine guns and rifles could not use their strength, and the officers and soldiers were wielding large blades very fast.
On the one hand, Tan Liding ordered the front line of the position to be blocked to prevent the enemy from advancing, and on the other hand, he ordered the troops to continue to rush into the trenches without stopping the Japanese troops.
Machine gunner Zhang Dali relied on his huge physique to raise a grenade and hit the Japanese soldier in front of him on the head. The Japanese soldier suddenly pulled out his right hand and grabbed his hand and neck. At this juncture, Zhang Dali was about to choke him with his left hand.
When he hit his neck, this Japanese soldier was also as strong as an ox. He jumped up from the ground with a dreamy leap, pinned Bilis down, pulled out his dagger and stabbed him.
Zhang Dali was about to be poisoned by the Japs, but he was unable to do so. His hands were tightly pressed by the Japs, and his chest was so compressed that he couldn't breathe.
"Kill!" roared. Zhang Dali took a closer look and saw that the Japs' heads were missing. He was stunned and hurriedly pushed away the headless enemy and turned over, "Chief of Staff!"
"Kill the enemy back to back, quickly." Tan Liding brandished a broadsword in his right hand, and with his left hand, he pulled the trigger of the pistol and killed a Japanese soldier five steps away who had his back turned to him.
Tan Liding became more and more courageous as he killed more and more. He held a big sword in his right hand and a pistol in his left hand. He used both sword and gun to kill until his eyes turned red.
"Old Zhang, Japs!" Zhang Dali heard the call from the chief of staff, and took a step forward to eliminate the enemy's head in front of him. He turned around. Because the Japanese army was running fast and fierce, Zhang Dali had already retreated.
It was too late, so he squatted down on the ground, and the Japanese bayonet stabbed a cold wind on the tip of his hair.
It was too late, but soon, Zhang Dali raised his knife and cut off the Japanese soldier's right calf. Just when he was about to give the Japanese soldier who fell to the ground a blow, the Japanese soldier pulled out the grenade from his waist and used his mouth to guide it.
He grabbed Zhang Dali's military uniform with his left hand and held on to his back.
"Good boy, you want to die together?" Zhang Dali cursed, turned around and struck the guy's mouth again with a knife, but the fuse of the grenade was emitting white smoke, Zhang Dali rushed over and grabbed the grenade that was about to explode and was about to drop it.
At that moment, a wounded Japanese soldier on the left rushed forward to protect Zhang Dali. In a huge explosion, the grenade exploded, and the wounded Japanese soldier also exploded, and Zhang Dali also lost his right hand.
His feet fell into a pool of blood.
Pang Shulin, the deputy company commander on one side, killed two more Japanese soldiers. When he stood up from the corpses, he saw Zhang Dali struggling to sit up from the ground, holding a big knife and grenades in his hands, and ran up to hug him.
, Zhang Dali hurriedly shouted, "The company deputy talks about the danger of the chief of staff"
Pang Shulin turned around and was shocked. Three Japanese army regiments surrounded Tan Liding. One of Tan Liding's two guards was killed, and the other was fighting with the Japanese army. Three against one, this is too mysterious, let alone Tan Liding.
The chief of staff's eyes also fell to one side and he couldn't see clearly.
"Hit" Pang Shulin raised his gun and struck, knocking the Japanese soldier who was wielding a 38-type rifle in front of Tan Liding to the ground. The Japanese soldier on Tan Liding's left saw Pang Shulin rushing towards him, and
Pang Shulin hurriedly turned around and raised his bayonet to fight. Pang Shulin raised his pistol and hit the guy in the abdomen with a "clink" sound.
After defeating two enemies, Tan Liding greatly relieved the pressure. However, the Japanese troops on the right stepped closer to Tan Liding with the length of their rifle bayonets, and at the same time kept shouting and yelling. Although Tan Liding could not understand the Japanese,
But it can be concluded that he is asking for reinforcements.
"Kill!" Tan Liding shouted, swung his big blade and slashed, cutting off the bayonet on the Japanese soldier's rifle. However, the big knife in his hand was also broken in the middle. Tan Liding was also a ruthless character.
With half a sword in his hand, he pounced on the Japanese soldier.
Pang Shulin on the side had immediately supported the chief of staff after killing two Japanese soldiers, but his left leg was unexpectedly pulled by a Japanese wounded soldier, and Pang Shulin fell to the ground violently. The Japanese soldier
He reluctantly rushed forward and hit Pang Shulin in the head with a grenade.
Pang Shulin rolled on the spot like lightning to avoid the grenade, jumped up and killed this Japanese soldier who was as fierce as a wolf. He took a breath and was about to go to reinforce the Chief of Staff, but was stopped by two Japanese soldiers who arrived.
Stop. Pang Shulin understood that at this juncture, if he was weak, he would die in the hands of the Japanese, and if he was strong, the enemy would be his victim.
At this time, the pistol was out of bullets, but there was no time. He hurriedly waved his sword to celebrate. The Japanese army rushed over first with its mouth wide open, and another Japanese army also rushed over with howling. When Pang Shulin was attacked from both sides, Tan Shulin
Li Ding had already killed the enemy and quietly picked up the enemy's rifle from the ground. He stabbed to death the Japanese soldier who was rushing towards Pang Shulin from the left from behind, and then raised his gun to shoot at the enemy in front of Pang Shulin.
The sounds of fighting in the trenches gradually died down, and the sound of the enemy's machine guns became muted. When Pang Shulin climbed up from the bloody trench, he saw Chief of Staff Tan Liding, whose face was covered with blood, holding a body in his arms.
The dead bodies of the Japanese army were piled up towards the trench. He hurriedly took a few steps over and asked: "Chief of Staff, are you still helping the enemy to collect the corpses?"
Tan Liding wiped his face with his sleeves, but there was even more blood on his face. He looked at the more than thirty Japanese corpses in the trench, then at the enemy position in front, and glared at Pang Shulin: "
Our positions have been destroyed by the Japanese artillery fire. If we don’t use the corpses of the Japanese to repair the fortifications, how can we repair them? Look, the Japanese have begun to charge again.”
Pang Shulin took a closer look and saw that another large group of Japanese troops howled and launched an attack on their own position.
Tan Liding didn't have time to talk nonsense, he picked up a Czech light machine gun and fired fiercely at the Japanese army in front of the position. He knew that if the Japanese army broke into his position again, his scarred and remnant soldiers would not be able to defeat the enemy again.
Kicked out.
"Stop saving bullets, Deputy Company Commander Pang, fire all the bullets immediately. If the Japanese rush in, it will be over."
Pang Shulin also knew that the situation was urgent, so he picked up his rifle and started shooting without saying a word. The sound of Chinese and Czech light machine guns sounded one after another from the position.
However, the weak firepower currently on the position was unable to stop the Japanese charge. Grenades and mortar shells continued to fall on the position, and the scant machine gun firepower that existed was almost wiped out.
There was a sound of a series of gunshots being fired. "Magazine, load the magazine quickly," Tan Liding shouted loudly.
"Sir, there are no more bullets." A timid voice came from the side. Tan Liding took a closer look and saw that it was a young soldier loading a magazine for himself.
"Bastard" Tan Liding cursed loudly, casually picked up a Japanese Type 38 rifle from beside him and started shooting.
"Okay, you kid, don't be stunned, hurry up and fuck this guy and shoot him." The situation was urgent, and Tan Liding also swore at him.
Although the soldiers on the position were firing desperately, without the support of machine guns, they could not effectively stop the enemy. The Japanese army gradually approached the position.
Tan Liding couldn't help but sigh when he saw the Japanese troops who were already less than fifty meters away from the position. He took out his bayonet and shouted loudly: "Everyone, listen to me and follow my orders. All bayonets are fixed and prepare for hand-to-hand combat."
The sound of "clicking" kept coming, and under the sunlight, a dazzling metallic light suddenly flashed in the trench.
Tan Liding took a deep breath and shouted loudly: "Brothers, are you ready?"
"Get ready, rush"
"Da da da"
A burst of intensive gunfire came from behind, and the Japanese troops approaching the position fell down one after another, "ta da da da"
Hearing these strange gunshots rang out from behind, Tan Liding and the more than 100 soldiers who were preparing to launch a desperate charge knew that the long-awaited reinforcements had finally arrived.
I saw dense gunfire getting closer and closer, and the Japanese army retreated in front of the ferocious firepower, leaving corpses on the ground.
Then a soldier wearing a colorful camouflage combat uniform jumped into the trench, and more and more soldiers were in the trench. Finally, an officer with the rank of major on his shoulders also entered the trench, and he saw at a glance that he was being
Tan Liding, who was surrounded by a group of soldiers, saluted in front of him: "Reporting to the commander, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 43rd Regiment of the 10th Chahar Infantry Division, Ren Ran, led his troops to change the defense. Please give instructions to the commander.
"
"Take a break." Tan Liding struggled to stand up, saluted solemnly and then said with a wry smile: "You finally arrived on time, otherwise you would have collected the bodies for us."
Ren Ran smiled bitterly and said, "Sir, we have a lot of luggage and the road is not easy to travel, so we are late."
Tan Liding said solemnly: "It's good that you are here. Now I hand over every inch of the position to you. I hope you won't let the blood of our brothers be shed in vain."
Ren Ran also said solemnly: "Sir, please rest assured, unless all of our battalion is killed, the Japanese will never be able to step up from here."
"A battalion" Hearing this, Tan Liding frowned: "Are you just here for a battalion?"
Ren Ran looked at the position and said, "That's enough, sir. This position is only three hundred meters long and one hundred meters wide. We have enough troops for one battalion."
Tan Liding moved his lips and then held back. People came all the way to reinforce him, so he had better stop talking. Tan Liding suddenly remembered something, and he said to Ren Ran: "Battal Commander Ren, our brigade is
We are still in the front position, and we don’t know about the change of defense yet. Can you send someone to notify them and ask them to withdraw? They must be in danger in the front." Tan Liding was very embarrassed when he said this, after all, it is too dangerous to go to the front.
Already.
Ren Ran said cheerfully: "No problem, I will send someone to inform them soon. Sir, you should evacuate quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to evacuate after the Japanese cannons."
Seeing Tan Liding and the others helping each other withdraw from their positions, Ren Ran immediately ordered the soldiers to seize the time to build their positions in preparation for a new round of Japanese attack.
