A vase is just a vase. If you have a long mouth, you can say whatever you like about others.
He couldn't understand the thoughts of the soldiers, including Li Yunlong's joy when he heard about going to the battlefield.
How can it be possible to eat meat while fighting against the Japanese?
Staying behind means drinking from the northwest wind?
If this is the case, Wang Xuexin would rather stay back and drink the northwest wind.
However, people of this era have really different thoughts.
This may be related to the fact that all of them have suffered at the hands of the Japs and traitors and hate the enemy so deeply that when they see the Japs, everyone wants to step forward and bite them.
From this perspective, fighting can really be called eating meat.
However, no matter how passive and sabotaging Wang Xuexin is, he still has to pay attention to the battlefield situation, otherwise there will always be a day when his "vase" will charge!
Wang Xuexin asked the troops to stay where they were, and found a high place in the sorghum field and slowly stood up to observe the battle situation.
The location of the Seventh Company is about 500 meters away from Xue Ququan Village. The sorghum field was supposed to extend to the village. But when the Japanese came last night, they used bayonets to force the villagers to chop down the sorghum next to the village overnight.
The 400-meter circle is bare.
Needless to say why the Japanese did this, it gave the Eighth Route Army no place to hide.
At this time, the 1st and 2nd Battalions, which were the main attackers, launched an attack on the village from two directions.
The soldiers of the 91st Regiment should be at the other end... Because Wang Xuexin was not very familiar with the Eighth Route Army, he couldn't tell which unit was which.
The soldiers fought bravely. Groups of them carried guns and rushed toward the village under the cover of machine guns.
But the Japanese were waiting for work, using mountain cannons, grenade launchers, and surprisingly accurate rifles to knock down the Eighth Route Army soldiers one by one in a pool of blood.
Wang Xuexin guessed that this unit should be the elite of the Japanese.
For example, they estimated their firepower very accurately and always placed the Eighth Route Army about a hundred meters away before starting to shoot.
At this time, a large number of our troops were exposed to the enemy's range and sight... It was four hundred meters from the sorghum field to the village, and the stretch of one hundred meters from the village, which was three hundred meters, was full of Eighth Route Army soldiers.
The enemy's firing at this moment put our charging soldiers into a dilemma:
Retreat, there are so many people in the open fields, casualties are inevitable.
If you don't evacuate, the people exposed in the open area may not be able to come back.
At the same time, Wang Xuexin also believed that the Japanese had more than enough firepower, which could be heard from the unhurried bursts of their machine guns... If it was an emergency, the machine guns would "click, click, click" as fast as they could.
The result was that after two charges, our troops were beaten back without even reaching the entrance to the village. The corpses of Eighth Route Army soldiers were lying everywhere in the fields.
On the other side, Li Yunlong also understood the difficulties of fighting with friendly forces.
"Old Zhao, it's impossible to fight like this!" Li Yunlong frowned and said: "The 91st Regiment is the main force that is good at fighting tough battles. They have mortars and even two mountain cannons taken from the Japanese. They
With these precious treasures, there is still some hope for a strong attack. Our independent regiment doesn't even have mortars. If we fight against the Japanese hiding behind the wall, wouldn't we risk death?"
"But we are cooperating with the 91st Regiment to attack!" Zhao Gang replied: "If the steps are not consistent, if they attack and we don't attack, it will affect the overall situation!"
It makes sense for Zhao Gang to think this way. What is meant by cooperative operations is to attract the enemy's firepower and troops so that they cannot fully deal with the 91st Regiment's attack.
If the Independent Regiment stopped attacking, the 91st Regiment would have to bear all the pressure from the Japanese.
"The whole situation is bullshit!" Li Yunlong scolded: "If the fight continues like this, our independent group will be dragged to death! If we defeat them all, how can we cooperate with them?"
But scolding was enough. Li Yunlong did not dare to disobey this kind of military order. When the signal flares came from the main group on the other side, Li Yunlong still had to send his troops to attack.
Wang Xuexin returned to the army, thought about it for a while, and decided that he still had to talk to the company commander.
At this time, Wu Lei was still sulking, and he was stabbing into the sorghum field with a military thorn.
Wang Xuexin stepped forward and reported: "Company Commander, I... have an idea that you can mention?"
Wu Lei looked up and saw that it was Wang Xuexin, and replied angrily: "Why don't you mention it to the battalion commander? Or you can just talk to the regiment commander!"
Wu Lei took it for granted that Wang Xuexin came with a request for a fight.
Will this request work for him?
Can’t you, Xiaobei Dong, do it?
Then mention it to the battalion commander and regimental commander.
If you convince the battalion commander and regiment commander, I, Wu Lei, will treat you as my ancestor from now on!
The instructor on the side did not agree after hearing this. He gave Wu Lei a wink and said to Wang Xuexin with a smile: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, if you have any ideas, just tell me! Don't talk to outsiders. This war is all about brainstorming.
, how can there be any reason not to let others speak when everyone works together!"
As he spoke, he turned his gaze to Wu Lei, who was still stabbing the bayonet. The last sentence was obviously meant for him.
Wu Lei had no choice but to reluctantly put away his bayonet, raised his head to Wang Xuexin, and said: "Tell me, what else do I need to beg you for?"
"How could that be possible?" Wang Xuexin smiled apologetically, secretly thinking that it would be unlucky to meet such a bad-tempered company commander like Wu Lei.
After a pause, Wang Xuexin said: "Let's put it this way, I was thinking that this Japs must be saving ammunition!"
The instructor was a little strange: "This battle has just begun, why do you say you need to save ammunition? How did you see it?"
Wu Lei was also a little curious. He looked disdainful just now, but now he looked more attentive.
"I went up to observe for a while!" Wang Xuexin explained: "I found that the little devil's machine gun was not using its full strength. It was firing bursts, grenades, and infantry artillery. They were also bombing important firepower points of our army. They easily stopped firing...
"
"Isn't this nonsense?" Wu Lei replied with a disdainful expression: "What the devils are doing here is to penetrate. The roads at both ends have long been blocked by our county brigade. If they want to hold on longer, this
Of course you have to save ammunition!"
In fact, Wu Lei's attitude towards Wang Xuexin is different in his heart.
This sounds like "nonsense", but no one in the company has noticed this.
Wu Lei was reminded by Wang Xuexin that he reasoned out that the Japanese were saving ammunition, otherwise they would have just vented their anger on the sorghum field.
"Yes, that's what I mean!" Wang Xuexin replied: "So I was thinking, since this Japs wants to do everything possible to save ammunition, why don't we start by consuming his ammunition?"
Wu Lei replied angrily: "Didn't you see that the Japanese have cut all the sorghum around the village? How can they use up their ammunition? Why don't you give them a cloth to cover their eyes?"
Wang Xuexin said: "It is not allowed to cover the eyes of the Japanese with cloth, but why can't we let off cigarettes?"
"That's right!" Wu Lei jumped up instantly: "There are sorghum stalks everywhere here. If you cut a bunch of them and light them, the smoke will..."
As he spoke, Wu Lei raised his head and carefully observed the sorghum swaying in the wind for a while, and then said happily: "The wind is still going smoothly!"
The instructor looked at Wang Xuexin, nodded heavily, and said: "It is not easy to adapt to changes and be smart and wise!"
