Chapter 83 Cross the river! Cross the river!
"call!"
"How many are still able to move?"
Cao Lin looked at Mi Long beside him and asked. Li Hu had just been accidentally hit by a stray bullet and was injured by a Japanese grenade. Now he was lying behind with the wounded.
"About ten of them!" Milong said after scanning a circle.
"Where's the ammunition? How much is left?"
"I only have one magazine left here." Milong said.
"The barrel of the heavy machine gun has overheated and deformed, making it useless."
"There are still a lot of grenades left, all of which were seized from the Japanese."
"The grenades are all out of ammunition."
Wang Zhong asked everyone to count their grenades. There were about ten soldiers, and on average each person only had four or five grenades left.
Fortunately, there were still a lot of grenades on the wounded soldiers. Everyone immediately cleaned the battlefield and collected grenades and ammunition.
After everything was prepared, Wang Zhong led more than ten soldiers to eat canned food and rest in the trenches built by the Japanese army. Now that the Japanese army's artillery positions have been pulled out, two of the Japanese artillery positions have been removed. After paying a heavy price, Bu La by the river also
The riverside position was almost taken down, and the Japanese army on the other side was now alone and completely trapped on the east bank.
Now Yu Xiaoqing and Long Wenwen are launching the final attack on the Japanese troops on the shore.
Without the support of artillery fire, the Japanese army was not much stronger than the Chinese army. Most of the remaining hundreds of Japanese troops were wiped out in less than ten minutes. Seeing the strength of the Chinese army, the remaining ones chose to surrender.
"Captain Long, what are you doing?" Yu Xiaoqing saw that Long Wenwen was organizing people to collect rafts used by the Japanese army to cross the river, and immediately stopped Long Wenwen.
"Crossing the river, of course." Long Wenwen said. He had already seen through his telescope that Bu La and others on the west bank were fighting with the Japanese army by the river. He also saw the artillery fire and fighting on the Nantianmen, so he naturally guessed the Japanese artillery.
Reason why support was interrupted.
"quick!"
"All the soldiers from the first battalion get on the raft for me and cross the river immediately!"
Long Wenwen had no intention of quarreling with Yu Xiaoqing. Although he was usually a head shorter than Yu Xiaoqing, in fact, as a reinforcement regiment, the Sichuan Army Corps was not controlled by Yu Xiaoqing and only accepted orders from the Yunnan Theater Command.
Long Wenwen led his guard platoon onto the raft first and rushed towards the other side of the river.
In just five or six minutes, Long Wenwen led the soldiers of the First Battalion of the Sichuan Army to land on the west bank, joined Bu La and others, and rushed to the Nantian Gate.
Half an hour later, the battle ended, Nantianmen changed hands, and the large number of artillery pieces left by the Takeuchi Regiment became the spoils of the Sichuan Army.
When Long Wenwen found Wang Zhong, there were only six people left around Wang Zhong, including Mi Long and Cui Yong, including Wang Zhong himself.
Seeing the flag of the Sichuan Army flying over the Nantianmen, there were no smiles on the faces of the few people, and some were just heavy.
"How many casualties are there?" Long Wenwen and Bu La and others fought all the way up and saw the tragic battle at Nantianmen with their own eyes. Their hearts became heavy. They came to Wang Zhong and sat down with their guns in their hands. Long Wenwen asked in a deep voice.
road.
"I led two hundred people to rush up the mountain, and now we are the only ones left." There was a hint of sadness and helplessness in Wang Zhong's voice.
Bu La also came over and said: "Of my more than 200 people, only about 20 are intact. There are still more than 20 lightly injured people and 40 or 50 seriously injured people. Whether they can be rescued is another matter.
.”
"How many people did you bring here?" Wang Zhong asked, looking at Long Wenwen.
"Except for one company left behind at Jiqi Slope, I pulled over the remaining two and a half battalions."
Although the Sichuan Army has strengthened its establishment, the lack of soldiers has meant that Long Wenwen has barely recruited nearly one regiment so far. Fortunately, these soldiers have been trained for at least half a year, except that they have not been on the front battlefield with the Japanese.
Apart from fighting with real swords and guns, the rest was pretty good.
"She Buttocks and Kang Ya are leading their men to ambush the Japanese reinforcements on a high ground thirty miles away. We must rush over to support them." After a short rest, Wang Zhong stood up with his gun in hand.
"The first battalion is responsible for staying behind, and the second and third battalions will go with me and Deputy Commander Wang to provide support." Long Wenwen immediately ordered, and everyone immediately followed the two to the front line. Mi Long and Cui Yong did not bother to rest, so they all followed.
Wang Zhong and others rushed to the front line.
Wang Zhong led Mi Long, Bu La and others to travel lightly and acted as a vanguard. It only took him two hours to arrive at the battlefield.
The highway has been completely blocked by the exploding cars, and a large number of Japanese troops are charging upstream next to the highway.
"Bang!"
Two hundred meters away, Wang Zhong raised his hand and fired a shot, directly killing a Japanese lieutenant. He then loaded the gun again and killed a Japanese light machine gunner. The third shot directly killed a Japanese commander who commanded the Japanese grenade launcher.
Bu La and others did not rush to where the Japanese troops were attacking, but moved to the other side and directly picked up the Japanese butt.
Wang Zhong and others acted as the vanguard. Although their number was small, they relieved Shebuti and Kang Ya's urgent needs. Their appearance forced the Japanese who were attacking the mountain to give up their attack and retreat to the foot of the mountain, using reverse slopes and vehicles as a means of attack.
Bunker, fight with Wang Zhong and others.
Ten minutes later, Long Wenwen arrived with a large force. The battlefield situation immediately changed, and the balance of victory completely tilted towards the national army.
Half an hour later, the battle ended, and the remaining Japanese troops either surrendered or fled.
Wang Zhong and Long Wenwen came to where Kang Ya and the others were. Kang Ya and others built three simple defenses, the first two of which had been breached by the Japs before. Kang Ya and Snake Butt took the last fifty
The brothers with multiple numbers, occupying the high point on the top of the mountain, were protected by the natural fortifications formed by the rugged rocks and were not wiped out by the Japanese grenades.
"This position is well chosen!" Wang Zhong said something to the snake's ass, and then asked: "How are the casualties?"
"There are still more than thirty people with beards and tails, and fifty or sixty people who are injured but can still move. The rest will only be known after examination." Snake Butt said with a solemn expression.
Wang Zhong raised his hand and patted his shoulder, saying: "Their sacrifice is worth it. We have taken down the Nantianmen."
As soon as Wang Zhong finished speaking, he heard a loud "boom" sound coming from behind him. When everyone heard the sound and looked back, they saw a mushroom cloud rising into the sky.
"That's..."
"Nantianmen?"
"Not good!" Wang Zhong and Long Wenwen exclaimed at the same time. They looked at each other and saw the shock in each other's eyes.
"No matter what happened at Nantianmen, it's too late for us to rush back now." Wang Zhong said solemnly.
Long Wenwen looked serious and solemn, nodded and said: "Yes, we fought fiercely with the Japanese army for a long time and marched for thirty miles. Brothers have reached their limit."
"Bu La is very familiar with the area. After cleaning the battlefield, ask him to lead you. I'm quick and will rush back to see what's going on."
"Be careful." Long Wenwen didn't stop him, but said very seriously.
