Under the dim oil lamp, the sound of cannons in the distance still rumbled.

Xigua's thin and sad back made Liu Xueyuan stop. She could only watch quietly and wait silently like all the commanders of the soldier.

Waiting for him to recover from the pain is also the responsibility of the soldier.

Soldiers must learn to endure sacrifice and bear the pain of their comrades' departure, otherwise how to support the country and nation. In any era, they must be as strong as a rock, even if they are weak.

No one goes to comfort me, because no one can comfort me.

The sorrow of nearly all of the nearly two thousand robes is the sorrow that only those who are in it can understand; the pain that is suddenly felt by strangers is also the pain that only one's own heart.

Perhaps, only the Huafa Lieutenant General was laughing.

Of course he had to laugh. Although his 17th Division was half-destroyed, and he had lost nearly half of his more than 10,000 yuan in Hongzhou Lengwa, there was still hope. This soldier was hope.

Being besieged by nearly a thousand Black Hawks and being shot by thousands of shells, they can still escape. Isn’t this just like a kingdom? It seems that the Black Hawk Empire Army is invincible, and it seems that the country will be destroyed and the family will be destroyed. However, the experience of the soldiers tells everyone that as long as you persist and as long as you don’t give up, there will be a dawn.

The kingdom will certainly usher in the dawn like this most ordinary soldier after experiencing a long darkness.

As long as there is dawn, what is more than 10,000 people in the 17th Division? What is the 100,000 troops in the eastern front of Ling Pizhou? What is the 100,000 soldiers in the kingdom now? What is the 100,000 soldiers in the kingdom? For the continuation of national bloodline and for the sake of future generations to live in the light, they can all sacrifice.

As long as the people in it don’t choose to sleep because of the darkness.

This made the Lieutenant General of the Army casually recite a golden sentence that Captain Liu said: Darkness gives us black eyes, but we use him to find light.

Seeing Liu Xueyuan's beautiful eyes swept over with great admiration, the Army Lieutenant General couldn't help but blushed slightly, and he chuckled: "Reporter Liu, this is not written by me, Lao Zhao, but the talent of your Captain Liu."

Faced with the joke of the Army Lieutenant General who finally saw the good mood of hope, Liu Xueyuan was generous this time: "Teacher Commander, Commander Liu's poems are wonderful, but your "the moon like frost outside the Gu Yong Peak" is not weaker than him, and it can definitely be passed down through the ages."

"It is not my poem that has been passed down through the ages, but him and them." A bleakness surged from Huang Lanfeng's face, and he pointed at the back of the watermelon and the positions outside the command center. "The names of all of them will be on the monument, on this Jiangrui Mountain, on the hearts of the people of my future kingdom. My Huang Lanfeng's greatest wish is to one day be able to line up my name with them, with Zhang Shijun, Yang Wentian, and Liu Xitang. Chief of Staff, if one day I die in battle, please scatter my ashes on this Jiangrui Mountain and Xuehua Mountain. I want to stay with them forever."

The chief of staff of the 17th Division, Che Jin, who had a red eye circle, nodded and said, "Teacher, Che Jin will not let you down. If one day, Che Jin will die, please ask the division commander to do this."

"Haha, okay, one word is certain." Huang Lanfeng and his most trusted chief of staff looked at each other and smiled and slapped them as a sworn, and then patted Xigua, who was afraid of being sobbing: "Guazi is cowardly, she is the company commander, why are you crying? The 102nd Regiment is gone, I will rebuild, the 2nd Battalion is gone, I will also rebuild, and the 5th Company is gone, so it is yours to rebuild. It is yours to tell me how you fought that battle and how you came back alive from there."

When Xigua, whose emotions calmed down a little, talked about the experience on the No. 1 position, there was another silence in the command center.

Although they all knew that it must be extremely tragic, they were still shocked.

The wounded hid in the pile of corpses and pulled grenades and explosive packs. The remaining soldiers then carried rifles and wade through the flesh and blood of their comrades to attack the Black Hawk Empire who rushed into the position. Once, twice, three times, until the last person left on the position.

They don't even have time to count the number of enemies they killed. Perhaps, it is because there is no need, and no one will feel that they will go back alive. The so-called military achievements are already insignificant in the face of death.

Until after the war, the Lieutenant General of the Army did not know how many enemies his fifth company had annihilated at the cost of only one casualty in the entire company. It was not until many years later that a battle report from the 20th Division declassified by the Black Hawk Army Department provided this answer.

During the battle at the No. 1 position of Snowflake Mountain, the Kingdom Guards were wiped out, but the 9th Infantry Brigade of the 80th Infantry Regiment of the Black Hawk Army died 175 people and 73 people in the battle. The reason why the injuries were less than those of the deaths was that the Kingdom soldiers, whether they were fighting in hand or ambushing them as corpses, used grenades and explosive packs as the last means of resistance. While they were crushed to pieces, the Black Hawk Army itself was also blown away by flesh and blood, and there were very few survivors.

At that time, the Army Lieutenant General, who was already the deputy governor of a province of the Principal State, rarely drank a pound of Xifeng wine that night, and was so drunk that he was unconscious. According to his wife and children, the general's drunken murmur was often repeated: I am in the fifth company, a good man from Fuhongzhou.

Indeed, under such a dilemma, he could still score a casualty ratio of 1 to 1.5, and he was the one with few soldiers in the kingdom. The kingdom of Chuangcheng Jiangzhuang Incident was the most beaconed, and the general was extremely proud of his command. They died as much as possible.

The fifth company fought extremely bravely. The last person who fired a signal flare on the position requesting the artillery battalion of the division's direct artillery battalion - Xigua was able to escape and was even more legendary.

Fifty shells were enough to cover the entire position twice, with almost no dead corners. A small team of the Black Hawk Army that attacked the position killed 26 people and injured 10 people.

But the watermelon, who was waiting to die, survived. A shell exploded five meters away from him. The violent explosion directly shocked him, and the collapsed trenches covered him from head to toe until he woke up from his coma late at night a day later.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Although he was incredibly painful, he was still alive.

The trenches were built on the Stone Mountain, and the collapsed trench walls were naturally also stones. Although they smashed his face all over the bruised, they provided him with enough breathing. If it were a pure soil trench, he would have died of suffocation due to the lack of oxygen.

It is still one of them to escape the threat of shells. The Black Hawk Army, whose eyes were red and eager to take revenge, was the biggest threat to the seriously injured and dying watermelon.

However, there were almost no corpses of the kingdom defenders on the position for them to vent. Most of the bodies of the officers and soldiers were hidden in anti-cannon holes by Yang Wentian, and then buried with grenades. The rest were either wrapped with grenades and explosives and died together with the Black Hawk Army in a way that was smashed to pieces, or after death, they were bombarded by mountain cannons and bombarded the position without any bones.

The Black Hawk Army just wanted to vent but couldn't find the target to vent. In addition, with the fall of position No. 1, the rest of the 102nd Regiment retreated quickly, and position No. 1 lost its function. After simply searching the position, the Black Hawk Army also left after simply searching the position and confirming that there was no living kingdom on the position.

The two armies spent two days, attacking and defending, and the position of more than 300 people on both sides was actually turned into a useless place after 20 minutes.

In fact, not only the No. 1 position, but also the entire Xuehua Mountain, after the 17th Division retreated to the second blocking position, Jiangrui Mountain, it also became a useless place.

The 80th Infantry Regiment quickly gave up Xuehua Mountain and instead attacked Jiangrui Mountain. There was no other Black Hawk Army in the entire Xuehua Mountain area.

Otherwise, even in the dark, even if the "living dead" watermelon, who climbed out of the pile of stones, had the chance to hold a torch and search for the empty positions like a ghost?

The rumbling sound of cannons in the distance reminded the silence of the top corps that the 17th Division was still resisting the attack of the Black Hawk Army on Jiangrui Mountain. So, with the few finger bones he only found on the position in the middle of the night, he spent a day and a night following the sound of gunfire and cannons, passing through the mountains and ridges, and coming to Jiangrui Mountain.

"Don't you know, your responsibilities as a soldier have been fulfilled. In fact, you can go back to Fuhongzhou, get back, marry your fiancée, and have a bunch of dolls." Huang Lanfeng sat in front of Xigua with crystal eyes and said softly.

"Teacher, I thought about it, I really thought about it." Xigua nodded and shook her head. "But Erni's brother-in-law is also Erni's brother-in-law. I can't find him. I searched for it for half a night, but I couldn't find it. I just found a few little fingers. I don't know whose, it's the company commander? Or Lao Yu's? Why do you think back? I'm afraid that when I close my eyes, I will think of the company commander and the others, and I will not sleep well for the rest of my life. Um, I decided, I won't leave. Either, after playing the Black Hawk Empire, go back to find Erni, or I will die and count the ball, so as not to be called by the company commander and his brother-in-law every night."

"Good boy! I apologize for my previous words: Guako. I promised your company commander that as long as the 17th Division is in place, the 5th Company will be in place, and I will fulfill my promise. Starting from now on, I will give you a day, 24 hours to rebuild the Fifth Company of the 2nd Battalion of the 102nd Regiment. However, there are no new recruits and wounded soldiers in the field hospital of the division, so you can choose 50 people." Huang Lanfeng patted Xigua on the shoulder and ordered solemnly.

"Yes!" Xigua stood attentively and saluted, turned around and left.

"Teacher, you are so kind to take good care of this kid! 24 hours, no, we can retreat in 16 hours!" Chief of staff Che Jin looked at his pocket watch and smiled slightly.

"Hehe, if you don't do this, what should this stupid boy do to go to the front line? The fifth company is only one seed. He must live for me. As long as he is here, the combat power of the newly built Fifth Company will be the same as the fifth company before." Huang Lanfeng said slowly as he looked at Xigua's back disappearing into the darkness.

What he keeps is seed and hope.

Only a commander who never retreats will bring out a group of soldiers who never retreats.
