After receiving the breakout order from the regiment headquarters, Wu Liang immediately summoned all the Communist Party members in the battalion. At this time, including the instructor Lin Yu, there were only four party members left in the battalion. Apart from Wu Liang and Lin Yu, they
Only Li Yingqing, the leader of the platoon, and Li Dan, the private of the first platoon, were left. These four party members were the only ones left.
Among the old party members of the second battalion, as well as the group of party members who had joined the party at the front line before, after five days of fierce fighting, these four were the only ones left!
At the party branch meeting, a simple division of labor was made. Wu Liang and Li Dan led the commando team to tear apart the Japanese defense line, while Lin Yu and Li Yingqing were responsible for breaking up the rear.
The vote was unanimous.
After the branch meeting ended, Wu Liang and Li Dan immediately selected 18 elite veterans from more than a hundred remnants to form a commando team. Lin Yu and Li Yingqing also selected more than 20 lightly wounded soldiers to serve as the rearguard force. However,
When the stretcher team was preparing to carry away the seriously injured, they were flatly refused by those seriously injured.
Those seriously wounded men already knew that the troops were about to break through, and they also knew that the chance of breaking out was extremely slim. Even if the regiment commander sent three battalions to respond, the chance of them breaking out was also very slim. The chance was already slim. If
If we take seriously injured people like them with us, our hope becomes even slimmer.
"Battal Commander, leave us alone!" A seriously wounded man said emotionally with tears in his eyes, "I know the extent of my injury well. Even if I return to Shanghai, it will only last three to five days. I will die and then...
Why bother the brothers to break through? Just let me stay, give me a gun, at least I can hold off the Japanese for at least a few minutes!"
"Nonsense!" Wu Liang said angrily, "Have you forgotten the admonishment of our independent regiment?"
"I haven't forgotten! How could I forget!" said the seriously injured man, "I will never forget it until I die!"
"Really?" Wu Liang said angrily, "Then you kid, you should recite your admonishment to me."
"Never give up, never abandon!" the seriously injured man said with a serious face, "No matter how severe the situation is, never give up the desire for victory and the hope of living, no matter how dangerous the situation is, never abandon your comrades!
"
"Ha, it turns out you really haven't forgotten it!" Wu Liang sneered twice and then said, "Then what nonsense did you just say? Such a small difficulty knocked you down? Did you give up hope? Or
Say, you have no fucking good intentions at all, you are just changing the law, do you want me to abandon my subordinates and make a mistake?"
The tears in the seriously injured man's eyes immediately fell down, and he choked and said: "Batalion Commander, I can't explain the truth to you. I know that if you take us with you, you and your brothers will be dragged to death! We will die if we stay.
, I will die with you, the outcome is doomed anyway, but if you don’t take us with you, you still have a chance to break out..."
"Shut up!" Wu Liang said coldly, "You don't need to think about these, you just need to obey the order!"
The seriously injured man immediately raised his hand, but there was a grenade in his hand, and he said ferociously: "Batalion Commander, if you insist on taking us with you, I will turn on the insurance now and end up killing myself! Anyway, I don't want to
If you leave alive, if you insist on taking me with you, then take my body with you, it's up to you!"
"Heizi!" Wu Liang's face immediately fell and he said sadly, "Are you crazy?"
"Battal Commander, I'm not crazy!" Heizi shook his head and said, "I've never been so sober!"
At this time, the other seriously injured people also expressed their opinions and asked to stay behind with Heizi. One of the seriously injured people was unable to speak because his face was injured, but he took out a grenade from under the white sheet and put his finger on it.
Reach into the insurance ring and make a gesture of pulling out the insurance to show your determination.
When Wu Liang was wondering what to do, Lin Yu finally spoke: "Old Wu, agree."
"Battal Commander, just agree." Li Yingqing took a step forward and said, "I will stay and lead them to block the attack. I can't guarantee anything else. It will be no problem to hold off the Japanese for half an hour!"
When Li Dan heard this, he immediately became anxious and said, "Second brother, I'll stay with you!"
"Don't make trouble." Li Yingqing touched the back of Li Dan's head and said softly, "Put away the things I gave you."
Li Dan hummed softly, but subconsciously put his hand into the satchel at his waist. There was a letter and a pen in the satchel, which were all left to Li Dan by Li Yingqing.
After hesitating for a moment, Li Yingqing whispered: "If possible, remember to bring the ashes of my second brother back to Meixian."
"Second brother!" Li Dan suddenly looked miserable when he heard this, but Li Yingqing never looked at Li Dan again. He turned around and walked to the more than 20 seriously injured people. Then he raised his right hand towards Wu Liang. Lin Yu and others saluted.
A military salute was given. Upon seeing this, the more than 20 seriously injured people on the stretcher also raised their right hands in a solemn salute.
Wu Liang also raised his hand to salute, but his eyes were full of tears.
At this time, midnight has passed and the time to break out has arrived!
"Commando, follow me!" Wu Liang accepted the gift, turned around and charged forward with a submachine gun in his arm.
Before turning around, Wu Liang said silently in his heart: Brothers, see you in the next life! We will still be brothers in the next life, and we will continue to fight the Japanese in the next life!
Watching Wu Liang and his comrades who had stayed together day and night leave, Li Yingqing and the more than 20 wounded people lying on stretchers all looked miserable: Brothers, see you in the next life! See you in the next life!
A moment later, fierce gunfire rang out outside the east gate of Baoshan, and the breakout battle officially began!
Li Yingqing and the others' blocking mission was about to begin. Before the little Japs could crush them, he quickly helped more than 20 seriously injured people enter the position. The Little Japs' reaction was really not slow. They had almost just arranged the arrangements, and hundreds of them were ready.
The Japanese soldiers planned to crush them from the front and the left and right sides.
"Hit me!" Li Yingqing ordered, and more than 20 seriously wounded men opened fire violently at the same time.
Five minutes later, the first line of defense was declared lost. The seven seriously injured soldiers guarding this line of defense invariably fired the melon grenades in their arms and chose to die with the little Jaap. Heizi was among them. Before he died, Heizi
He shouted loudly: "Battal Commander and brothers, Heizi took the first step, let's see you in the next life!"
Ten minutes later, the three lines of defense built by Li Yingqing and more than 20 seriously wounded soldiers were lost one after another. All the more than 20 seriously wounded soldiers died. Li Yingqing was hit by several bullets and was hit by a grenade at close range.
His whole body was covered in blood, and even the vision he could see through his eyes was red.
To make matters worse, the bullets have also been fired!
At this time, Li Yingqing was very sure that he would be unlucky today!
The gunfire suddenly stopped, and a dozen Japanese soldiers came over with shining bayonets, seemingly trying to capture him alive.
Li Yingqing smiled contemptuously, took the last remaining grenade, pulled out the safety pin, and then sat under his butt. At this time, he only had to tilt his butt and the grenade would explode with a bang! Do it!
After finishing this, Li Yingqing felt calm, smiled, and took out a cigarette from his pocket with his injured right hand.
At this time, more than a dozen little devils had already approached Li Yingqing, but seeing that Li Yingqing was so calm and still in the mood to smoke, they did not act rashly. No matter who they were, even the cruel little devils, they would not attack those who were really
A fearless warrior is also respectful.
Li Yingqing rummaged through his pockets, but couldn't find any matches. When he turned around, he saw a rafter smoking nearby. He stretched out his injured right hand, pulled the smoking rafter over, and used the sparks on the rafter to hold it.
The cigarette was lit, and then he took a deep breath, and then slowly blew out two plumes of smoke from his nostrils.
At this time, Li Yingqing's eyes suddenly lit up.
Because he saw a Japanese colonel walking towards him.
The Japanese commander who was walking towards Li Yingqing was Sanjo Kyosuke, the deputy captain of the 1st Guards Infantry Regiment!
Just now, the severely wounded members of the Second Battalion launched a suicidal attack at the cost of their lives. This scene really shocked Kyousuke Sanjo. This little devil had never thought that the Chinese could be so brave.
In my impression, Chinese people have always been cowardly, greedy for life and afraid of death!
But the performance of the group of Chinese soldiers in front of him completely subverted his understanding of the Chinese people.
Therefore, Sanjo Kyosuke is eager to capture a living prisoner. He is eager to find out what is going on? Why can Chinese soldiers become so fearless and brave?
Seeing the 1st Infantry Squadron surrounding the wounded of an independent regiment, Sanjo Kyosuke came over.
"Chinese people, you are very brave, I admire you very much!" Sanjo Kyosuke walked up to Li Yingqing and said in blunt Mandarin, "But I want to know, why do you do this? Isn't it good to live? As long as you
If you are willing to lay down your weapons, the imperial army will not kill the prisoners, so why do you have to resist to the end?"
"Want to know?" Li Yingqing waved and said with a smile, "Come closer and I'll tell you."
The Chinese were already surrounded by the Japanese army, not to mention the presence of the special forces soldier Yuichiro Otani, so Sanjo Kyosuke was not afraid of any conspiracy by the other party. He immediately took two steps forward and stood in front of Li Yingqing. He leaned down again, almost
Put your head close to Li Yingqing's face.
Sanjo Kyosuke said: "You can tell me now."
"Okay." Li Yingqing said, "What I want to say is, go to hell!"
"Nani?" Sanjo Kyousuke was stunned when he heard this, and all the hairs on his body stood up.
Because after Li Yingqing finished speaking, he leaned to one side, exposing the grenade sitting under his buttocks. Just when Sanjo Kyosuke thought that he would die, a huge force suddenly came from behind, but
It was Yuichiro Otani who took action, grabbing Sanjo Kyosuke by the collar and yanking him hard, then threw him out like a sack.
