The Langya Brigade retreated to Dachang Town and met Xu Rui head-on.
Xu Rui immediately called Langya's roll call. At the end of the roll call, he found that Leng Tiefeng and Chen Yuangui had not returned to the team. Xu Rui's expression immediately changed! Langya team members are all precious, and the loss of one person is a great loss.
Not to mention two? Not to mention Leng Tiefeng among them? This is an upgraded Wolf Fang!
Xu Rui asked in a deep voice: "Which of you last saw the veteran and Agui?"
Everyone was silent. Finally, Yu Bican stepped forward with his head lowered and said, "Commander, this is all my fault."
"Old Yu, I don't want to hold anyone accountable." Xu Rui waved his hand, frowned and asked, "What's going on?"
Yu Bican said: "I seized a coalition flag from the Japanese and gave it to Agui for safekeeping. During the retreat, Agui accidentally lost the satchel with the coalition flag in it, and then went down to the ground to pick it up. As a result,
The Japanese navy's large-caliber artillery shells blew up. I wanted to go back to rescue them, but the captain didn't let me..."
After a pause, when Yu Bican wanted to say more, Xu Rui stopped him.
Xu Rui already knew what was going on. Apparently, after Leng Tiefeng stopped Yu Bican, he braved the bombardment of the Japanese navy's large-caliber naval gun to go back to save Chen Yuangui! Xu Rui could understand Leng Tiefeng's approach, because
If it were him, he would do the same thing as Leng Tiefeng. This is what a commander should do!
Fortunately, at this time, the Japanese Navy's indiscriminate artillery fire coverage has ended.
At that moment, Xu Rui led the Langya Brigade, the fifth battalion, and the sixth battalion back to carefully clean the battlefield in Luodian Town. The kid's large-caliber artillery shells were not blown by the strong wind. Xu Rui never believed that what had happened just now was
After one round of indiscriminate bombardment, the Japanese Navy would follow up with a second round of indiscriminate bombardment.
When Xu Rui led his troops back to Luodian, they found that Luodian town had been bombed into ruins.
After such an intensity of cluster bombardment, few of the weapons and equipment left behind by the Japs could be found in good condition. For example, the field howitzers of the 26th Regiment of the Field Artillery Corps could be disassembled into spare parts.
, already burning incense, it is simply a delusion to find a complete one.
The enemy's equipment is like this, let alone civilian buildings.
Poor people in Luodian Town. After the first Songhu Battle, it took nearly two years to rebuild their homes. Now they have experienced two wars in two days, and their homes were destroyed in the blink of an eye.
Once, I really don’t know, when the fleeing people come back and see their destroyed homes, how will they react?
Want to cry but have no tears? Look up to the sky and sigh? Or wipe away your tears and build your own home again? God knows.
As well as the people of Jiangwan Town, their homes were also destroyed, even more completely than Luodian.
The fire Xu Rui set in Jiangwan Town burned down three infantry regiments of the Japanese 20th Division, but it also burned down more than a thousand houses in Jiangwan Town. Until now, Jiangwan
The fires in Wan Town are still burning, and at least until dark today, the fires cannot be extinguished.
It is impossible to say that Xu Rui does not feel a trace of guilt in his heart.
The duty of the military is to protect the lives and property of the people. But now, in order to fight against the Japs and the invaders, they can only watch the people's property disappear. How could Xu Rui be indifferent? But there is something else here.
The difference between the small self and the big self.
Sometimes, in order to preserve the greater self, one must sacrifice the small self!
After all, small groups are insignificant compared to the entire nation. This is indeed cruel to say, because small groups are only a small part of the entire nation, but to the small group itself, they are all! For example, Jiangwan Town or
For the people of Luodian Town, their home here is their entire world!
Why does it have to be me who sacrifices, why not someone else?
Most people will ask this question when faced with passive sacrifice.
But reality is so cruel! Sometimes someone has to make sacrifices!
Just like when their soldiers fight, in order to save the large army, they often have to sacrifice the small unit. Because by sacrificing the small unit and saving the large unit, they also keep hope! But if no one wants to sacrifice, in the end
Even the small unit cannot be saved. The large unit is gone, and there is no hope!
At that moment, Xu Rui put aside his distracting thoughts and commanded his troops to start searching the battlefield.
Xu Rui took the lead in leading a Langya team into Luodian Town. Looking around, he could no longer tell where the streets were and where the buildings were. All he could see were fragments of ruins and craters one after another, each with a diameter of more than five meters.
Huge craters of ten meters, and these craters are still smoking outside.
Moreover, on the edge of the first crater, Xu Rui found several mutilated corpses. One corpse only had half of its torso left, its head and limbs were missing, and the internal organs and intestines in the chest and abdominal cavity were also missing.
He was probably torn apart by the airwaves from the shell explosion, and his death was as miserable as possible.
However, judging from the military uniform on the corpse, it was obvious that he was a Japs, and he deserved to die!
The little Japanese died under the large-caliber naval gun of his own navy, and Xu Rui only felt cruel pleasure.
Not far forward, they came to the vicinity of the third bomb crater. Xu Rui and the accompanying Lang Ya suddenly heard a faint cry for help. The several Lang Ya immediately raised their guns and blocked Xu Rui one after another.
in front of.
Xu Rui waved his hand to signal the wolves not to be nervous. When he looked closely, he found a Japanese soldier lying at the bottom of the large crater. He raised his hands and begged Xu Rui and the others for help: "Help me, help me."
Help me, I don’t want to die, I don’t want to die, I want to go home, I miss my mother, mother, mother..."
The little devil's tone was sad, and his eyes were full of the desire to survive.
During his lifetime, this little devil may have been cruel and may have killed many Chinese people, but now, his inner weakness and nostalgia for this world have been fully exposed. At this time, this dying little devil has nothing to do with all the dying people.
The difference is full of longing for my hometown and mother, as well as nostalgia for this world.
However, it is a pity that no one can save him, because his body has disappeared from the waist down. It is probably torn apart by the air waves generated by the explosion of large-caliber artillery shells, and then the upper half of his body was thrown here.
, but the lower half of the body flew to nowhere, or it might have been blown to pieces.
At that moment, Xu Rui winked at Lang Ya, who immediately held the bayonet and walked towards the bottom of the crater.
The Japanese saw the purpose of the Langya team member, looked at the Wolfman with pleading eyes, and said sadly: "No, don't kill me, please don't kill me..."
But the Wolf Fang member didn't even frown, and stabbed the kid on the shoulder and neck with the knife. The kid's eyes instantly became dull. After a moment, he let out a soft sigh, and then slowly closed his eyes.
He closed his eyes and the expression on his face slowly relaxed.
Xu Rui and his party continued to search forward.
A moment later, a group of wolf fangs searching in the other direction suddenly shouted: "Found it! Commander, we have found the captain and Agui, we have found them!"
Xu Rui's heart immediately started beating wildly.
The next moment, Xu Rui suddenly turned around and ran towards the direction where the sound came from.
Then another Wolf Fang voice sounded: "Still alive, the captain is still alive! Alive!"
At this time, Xu Rui had already rushed to the vicinity of the group of wolf fangs, and then saw two wolf fang team members squatting at the bottom of a super huge crater, supporting two people to sit, even though the two people's faces were covered with gunpowder smoke and their hair was
, the military uniforms were all blackened by gunpowder smoke, but Xu Rui still recognized them at a glance. There was no doubt that one of them was Leng Tiefeng.
"Captain! Captain!" Yu Bican rushed to Leng Tiefeng before Xu Rui and shouted in a tearful tone, "You're okay, you're okay, this is great, this is great."
If Leng Tiefeng really died this time, Yu Bican would definitely feel guilty for the rest of his life.
Fortunately, such a thing did not happen, and Yu Bican could finally breathe a sigh of relief.
"Ahem, cough..." Leng Tiefeng coughed violently, and then cursed, "Why are you crying in mourning? I'm not dead. If you dare to cry in mourning again, I'll break your legs."
Before he finished speaking, a stream of blood flowed from the corner of Leng Tiefeng's mouth.
Although he was not dead, Leng Tiefeng was obviously seriously injured.
But if he could survive such an intense bombardment, his injuries would be nothing.
Yu Bican immediately stopped crying and turned his eyes to Chen Yuangui next to him.
Chen Yuangui was also injured. With blood bleeding from the corner of his mouth, he grabbed the satchel next to him as if offering a treasure. Then he dug out the half-broken alliance flag from the satchel and said to Yu Bican: "Platoon leader, the Japs' alliance flag, the alliance flag."
flag!"
Yu Bican took the alliance flag, threw it to the ground, and said, "What do I want with this crap? You fool, you just throw away this crap, is it worth your life?"
Chen Yuangui said: "Platoon leader, I know you are holding back some energy and want to compete with Brother Leopard."
Yu Bican's tears immediately fell down. He squatted down and hugged Chen Yuangui and cried loudly. While crying, Yu Bican choked and said to Chen Yuangui: "Gui, I won't compete! From today on, I will never compete with a leopard again! I give up.
I admit defeat! As long as the brothers are doing well, I am willing to be a loser."
After saying that, Yu Bican turned around again, picked up the coalition flag from the ground, and then cut it into countless pieces with a bayonet! A coalition flag that could at least be exchanged for a first-class meritorious service was destroyed by Yu Bican!
Xu Rui and the other Lang Ya watched, but no one stopped them. Instead, they felt that Yu Bican had done a good job.
Leng Tiefeng smiled slightly at Xu Rui and said: "Old Xu, you are right. The probability of two shells falling into the same crater is indeed very small, so we are both still alive. I really want to thank you this time."
