Wu Chengfeng was walking with more than 100 brothers from the whole company on streets full of gravel and rubble. It was now six o'clock in the morning, and there was still no trace of sunlight in the dim and hazy sky.
Ahead was the Japanese controlled area. Wu Chengfeng turned around and softly let out two cricket chirps. After hearing the signal, the soldiers immediately dispersed on the street. All experienced soldiers knew that,
It's really not a good idea to get together on the battlefield. Fighting and fighting are two completely different concepts. The theory of greater strength in numbers doesn't work here. If you don't want to die in the same year, month and day with your brothers, it's best to separate immediately.
, the faster the better.
Wu Chengfeng held the Somi in his hand tightly, and the muzzle of the submachine gun kept swinging in all directions. If anyone observed carefully, he would definitely find that the muzzle of his gun was always pointed at the place in front where someone was most likely to be ambushed.
Today is the third day of the general attack on Jinzhou. Wu Chengfeng's regiment was the last group of troops from the 10th Division to enter the city. Since they only entered the city last evening, the task of patrolling and guarding at night was given to their regiment.
Come take responsibility.
This job is not very good. The activities of the Japanese army are quite rampant at night. Often one or two people sneak up in a dark corner, fire off a shot, then turn around and run away, leaving you with nowhere to find anyone. This kind of thing
There were not many casualties in the incident, but he was not disgusting, so the patrol team was engaged in the job of clearing out gophers.
Looking at the sky, Wu Chengfeng estimated that it would be dawn in more than an hour. After the brothers' attack, their regiment would have a few hours of precious rest time. Wu Chengfeng became more energetic. It takes half a mile to travel a hundred miles.
He still knows this truth.
But there is a saying that it is always darkest before dawn. The team had just walked less than a hundred meters when a burst of gunfire came from the front. Everyone is familiar with this gunshot. It was the 11th day of the Japanese Army.
The sound of a young light machine gun.
"Follow me in the first and second platoons, and cover in the third platoon." After Wu Chengfeng finished speaking, he took the lead and ran forward.
"Kakakaka" was Suomi's voice. The gunshots were very dense. It was probably that another nearby patrol team had encountered Japanese soldiers. When Wu Chengfeng and the others arrived, they saw that another patrol team was being attacked.
The Japanese attack was several times their own, and a team of dozens of people was engaged in a fierce exchange of fire with a Japanese squadron. Since the sky was still relatively dark, it was impossible to tell which troop it was. Wu Chengfeng and the others could only rely on gunshots and
The fire was fired at the Japanese army.
The small force that was exchanging fire with the Japanese army started fighting even more happily when they heard the familiar sounds of Somi and Garland rifles coming from the side. When the Japanese army couldn't bear the pain of the two-sided attack and retreated, Wu Chengfeng finally fought with the small force on the opposite side.
The troops have reunited.
After detaching a platoon of troops to guard the surroundings, Wu Chengfeng walked forward, "Asshole, which section do you belong to? Why do you dare to patrol here with only one platoon of troops? Do you want to die? Or does your commander have no brains?
"As soon as they met, the angry Wu Chengfeng cursed him. According to regulations, when patrolling areas in contact with the Japanese army, there must be more than one company of troops, but the small unit in front of him only has one platoon at most, and there are many people.
What he was holding was a pistol. This made Wu Chengfeng even more angry. Damn it, he dared to fight with the Japanese patrol with a pistol. Who did he think he was? Is he Erlang deity?
Hearing Wu Chengfeng's scolding, the soldiers in front of the team were obviously stunned for a moment, as if they didn't expect that someone would dare to reprimand them. Only then did an angry soldier curse: "Asshole, how dare you
Scold us, do you know who is here? We are"
The soldier was interrupted by Wu Chengfeng before he finished speaking, "I don't care who you are, I only know that this is a battlefield. Don't you know how dangerous it was just now? If you were my soldiers, I would have to lock you up for three days."
No."
At this time, a man walked out from the opposite team and came to Wu Chengfeng and said in a deep voice: "Please state your name, position and military rank."
"Wu Chengfeng, captain of the 1st Company of the Forward Battalion of the 10th Infantry Division." After hearing this sentence, Wu Chengfeng stood at attention like a conditioned reflex and reported his military rank.
After Wu Chengfeng reported his number, he realized why he was being questioned by the other party. Wu Chengfeng, who was about to curse, used the faint starlight to reluctantly drive to a faintly shining general star on the other party's shoulder.
"Fuck, I hit the iron plate today" was Wu Chengfeng's subconscious reaction. Then he quickly stood upright and shouted: "Hello, sir"
When the visitor walked in front of Wu Chengfeng, a familiar face of a middle-aged man appeared in front of Wu Chengfeng. It turned out that he was the boss of Wu Chengfeng's immediate boss, Peng Zeyuan, the commander of the 10th Infantry Division.
Peng Zeyuan looked at Wu Chengfeng for a long time, and after staring at Wu Chengfeng until his heart went crazy, he slowly said: "You are so courageous, you even dare to scold the superior."
"Sir, I, I didn't know it was you." Wu Chengfeng stammered while explaining, and he was also cursing his mother secretly in his heart, "Damn it, why did you come to the front with me when the teacher is not at the division headquarters? Isn't this a lie?"
"Okay, Captain, I don't want to hear your explanation. I want to ask you what punishment you should receive according to military regulations for insulting your commander."
"Insulting the officer will result in three days of confinement, and in serious cases, he will be punished with a major demerit." Wu Chengfeng also took the risk. Damn, it was just a few curse words. At least I saved him once. Master, you can't really let me remember him.
It's a big demerit. If I really admit it, it means I can't be promoted within three years. I'm only twenty this year. I can afford to wait.
Peng Zeyuan looked at the captain who was trying to remain calm in front of him, with a smile flashing in his eyes, "Captain, now I'll give you two choices. The first is to stay in the solitary room for three days after you go back, and the second is to take your men with you.
My brothers, let me knock down the building in front and hold it firmly until the reinforcements arrive. You make your own choice."
"This" Wu Chengfeng turned around and looked at the brothers around him. He felt a little embarrassed. After all, he scolded people himself, but he had to implicate his brothers. This was not his Wu Chengfeng's character.
Wu Chengfeng thought about it for a while and was about to refuse, but the commander of the second platoon behind him said with a smile: "It's just a building, isn't it? We took it down with one charge. What's the point? We've just captured the courtyard and we're having breakfast."
"That's right, even seats. We haven't been open for a long time. I'm having a good time today. Let's do it." The soldiers behind also started to cheer.
"Okay, I'm happy to hear the battle. They are indeed the team of the Pioneer Battalion." Peng Zeyuan nodded with satisfaction, pointed to the tall building in front and said, "Did you see that five hundred meters in front of the south was originally a university in Jinzhou, but now it is called
The army has been transformed into a stronghold, and now there is a Japanese army squadron guarding it. That building is the commanding heights of this area. As long as we occupy it, this area will be under our control. If you capture it, I will not only
Instead of punishing you, I will award you a medal. If you can't capture it, I will punish you severely. Can you do it?"
Wu Chengfeng looked at the front for a while, then squinted his eyes and made a visual inspection before saying: "If the Japanese army only has one squadron to defend it, it will be difficult for our company to capture them alone. I also need to increase the strength of one company. In addition,
I also need a lot of tear gas and smoke bombs. If the commander can meet my request, I will execute this order, otherwise I will go to my solitary cell."
"Seats together, seats together." The captain of the second row behind him tugged at the corner of Wu Chengfeng's clothes, fearing that he would anger the teacher and lead him away.
Peng Zeyuan was not angry, but nodded appreciatively, "Well, you are not too carried away by the victory. You are very good. Well, I can satisfy your request. Well, your battalion commander is Liu Jun, right?"
"Sir, yes"
"Well, you go back and tell Liu Jun that it was me who told him to allocate a company to your command. We must capture the stronghold in front of us before three o'clock today."
"It's to ensure that the mission is completed." Wu Chengfeng quickly left with the team.
After Wu Chengfeng left, a staff officer behind Peng Zeyuan asked with some confusion: "Master, can they do it?"
Peng Zeyuan smiled, "I originally planned to let their regiment attack on behalf of the other two regiments today. You have to try to find out whether it works. Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the forward battalion is also unparalleled in our division. If they can't do it, we will
We have to find another way."
"Master, you really have a good plan." The staff officer behind him also laughed.
As soon as it started to get dark, Wu Chengfeng led two companies to launch an attack on the Japanese stronghold.
This is a four-story brick building. People these days are very conscientious and will not engage in shoddy construction. It is inherently very strong. Before the Chahar army attacked, the Japanese army used steel plates and cement to destroy them.
After they were reinforced, ordinary mortars and infantry cannons could not attack them. Moreover, there were many obstacles in the surrounding civilian houses, and tanks could not drive in at all. The Japanese army also equipped more than a dozen mortars and infantry cannons to dominate them.
Specializing in bombarding every blind spot, yesterday a battalion of the 10th Division failed to capture it after a whole day of attacking, and today Wu Chengfeng came specifically to gnaw on this hard nut.
Sure enough, as soon as Wu Chengfeng led two companies to the front, he was greeted by a dense rain of bullets from the Japanese army. The bullets from the Type 92 heavy machine gun and the crooked light machine gun were fired down like water. Wu Chengfeng and the others were suppressed.
Can't even lift my head.
"Quick, smoke bomb attack"
Following Wu Chengfeng's order, a dozen 82mm caliber mortars that had been waiting behind immediately fired smoke grenades.
"Boom boom boom"
As the mortars were fired, the building was immediately surrounded by thick smoke.
