Chapter 22 Chapter Eighteen

Staff Officer Li stood in the middle of the room, with both hands replacing aircraft, cannons, machine guns and rifles, as well as our army's enemy troops, and kept following what he said, making gestures.His own body also represented Battalion Commander Yang, Deputy Battalion Commander Dong, and Company Commander Hu, playing several roles.Sometimes I squat down, sometimes stand straight, and sometimes move half a step. At this point, Cheng Jianren laughed and said, "Storyteller, although you speak eloquently, your writing is a bit off topic. This time your book seems to be about Yang Weijun taking over Ezigang and Hu Dexiu defending Yejiagang. It's just an interlude , I don’t understand the wonderful scene you mentioned.”

Staff Officer Li said with a smile: "Isn't it a wonderful scene for a group of people to guard under the threat of more than a dozen cannons and nine planes? But I haven't said the most exciting scene yet. Don't be busy, you wait." I'll talk about this lively book slowly, and I'll drink a glass of water first." Then, he bent down, took out the big porcelain pot under the bed, and brought out a rough porcelain bowl from the window sill, poured a cup of water into it. Bowl of cold boiled water, drink it standing up. He drank all the water in one breath, put down the bowl, and still stood still and said, "Listen to me to tell you the most exciting part of this passage. After Deputy Battalion Commander Dong went there, the enemy's planes concentrated on the rock convex. The cannon Needless to say, apart from the cannons on the road in Deshan City, the artillery on the road in Xinmin Bridge were all aimed at the Yantu area. The flames enveloped the area of ​​thousands of meters around. All I heard was the sound of explosions. The price the enemy paid for this stronghold can really be given to him in four words, no expense spared. Outside the fortifications, it is a huge foggy day, which can also be described in four words, see Sunshine. Looking at the situation, we judged that the enemy must want to enter Puyan Convex, copy to the back of Huangmu Pass, and then join the enemy from Deshan, and follow the riverside road to directly attack Changde Great East Gate. Because In short, call the regiment headquarters for the details at any time, and at the same time call several strongholds in front to withdraw the troops so that they can be concentrated. Speaking of which, I cannot but praise Dong Qingxia and Hu Dexiu for being two iron men. We blasted away half of the commanders from that shell Looking outside, every two or three minutes, a burst of sparks surged on the flat ground in front of him. Which of those sparks surged from the flat ground, was it not a magic tower? But the two of them brought two groups of people, Yejiagang turned back. The iron men I was talking about were actually a group of iron men. The flying sulfur flames, the dust splashed on the ground, and the mud in the rice fields covered the entire body of these brothers. And the brothers who were hung with colors, There are gauzes smeared with gray smoke on their faces and hands. It's hard to describe the shape in words. When I saw them, although I said it was hard, there were tears in my eyes, and I really wanted to rush out. Yang Ying When the commander saw that they had fought hard, he told them to go to the rock bridge to rest. Our battalion headquarters is near the Huangjing Pavilion between the Doumatou rock protrusions. Clearly. The enemy is on the bank of the Yuan River, pulling a longitudinal line from Wumiao Mountain, Wumiao Mountain, Wuli Mountain, Yejiagang, Wuli Mountain, and there are five troops rushing towards the front of this rock protrusion. The front of these five enemy troops is about one thousand meters. The cannonballs opened the way for them one by one. On top of the cannonballs, there were also planes flying like wheels, constantly strafing and dropping bombs. Under such circumstances, the two companies we deployed in front of course could not stop them. Stop the enemy's infantry. At four o'clock, the sound of the enemy's mountain artillery suddenly stopped, and there were only scattered mortars. We immediately responded to the call from the command post of the first company. The enemy's infantry, facing the rock protrusion, divided into three groups Forge ahead. There are five wave teams on each road, and we have three machine guns, which happen to intercept these three roads. After calling the report, the machine guns in front have already burst like a levee, and the enemy's light and heavy machine guns are also I can't tell how many there are, and I can't tell where they rise and fall, but they just fire one after another. Battalion Commander Yang said to me: "Staff Officer, please go to the regiment command post to keep in touch. The enemy is coming fiercely, so I have to go there by myself." No more.” After he finished speaking, he picked up his rifle, hung a grenade, jumped out of the command post and left. In the shelter near the command post, there was only one reserve team, and they all followed him up. I was in the shelter, looking out I saw that Battalion Commander Yang led a group of people, jumping up and down, and lying down from time to time.Reaching the ground to dodge enemy mortar shells, they were soon seen burrowing into the smoke in front of them.At that time, there were two enemy planes flying in half a circle from the south. It seemed that he had noticed that there were reinforcements coming up here, and they were staring at the back of Battalion Commander Yang. Tap, tap, burst after burst, strafing the smoke.I am very worried for Battalion Commander Yang and his group.At the same time, I really admire their fearless spirit.I just crouched in the fortification and looked forward, refusing to blink my eyelids.At about half an hour, at the north end of the Huangjing Pavilion, there was already a lot of machine gunfire, and several mortar shells fell near the command post.A sentry outside rushed in and reported to me that the enemy had been spotted to the north, about 1,120 meters away.I was really taken aback when I heard this.In this way, wouldn't the enemy rush to the back of the rock protrusion.Then all of us in the rock convex will be surrounded by them.At this time, there was only one company deputy and a few miscellaneous soldiers in the command post, so I called Commander Chai without thinking about it.On the one hand, I told the people in the command post to be on emergency alert.Fortunately, the rifle that captured the Japanese devils was still with him.When I am ready, when it is necessary, everyone rushes to the enemy's line and makes a suicide attack.Fortunately, in less than ten minutes, Battalion Commander Yang brought the first company back from Yantu, and he did not come to the command post. He just set up a temporary formation at a small embankment to the north to intercept the enemy.At this time, I have already judged that the enemy has fallen here, because the enemy has also been found along the road.At last I saw a wave-shaped army of the enemy, and there were three waves advancing towards the Huangjing Pavilion. I guessed that I had arrived at the last minute.I touched the two hand grenades hanging on my body, I picked up the rifle to look at it, and stroked the machine gun twice.Good! Here comes the wonderful show.A boom sounded violently a few hundred meters in front of us, a burst of sparks erupted, and an enemy wave team closest to the command hit us with a shell. "

He stood and said, squatting down, and together, he tightly clenched a big fist with his right hand, and slapped him hard in the palm of his left hand.He went on to say: "Since then, every mountain shell we sent out fell into the enemy's wave-like dense troops. The enemy army coming west along the Yuanjiang River was the first to be defeated. Later, our shells went northward one after another. As soon as the enemy fired on the road, the enemy retreated steadily. I was in the command post, and my two hands that held the rifle tightly were relaxed. However, although the enemy's infantry had stopped, the artillery started to move again, and the command post was constantly buzzing. There was a strange whistling sound, and the enemy soldiers were also firing back at our artillery positions. I was about to call Regimental Commander Chai, but Regimental Commander Chai rushed up with a company of reserve troops and was passing by the command post. That Deputy Battalion Commander Dong Qingxia and Company Commander Hu Dexiu, who had just come down here to rest, came with them. At this time, although the enemy planes had retreated, the flames of the enemy shells were in the rice fields in front of us, forming a clump. Sparks were blooming in the clump. The sky was dark and late, and the fields in front of us seemed to be illuminated by lightning. They were in this group of wildfires. They divided into two teams of shadows, half-bent down, and rushed towards the enemy in front of us. I saw with my own eyes that Captain Chai Yixin, leading a group of people and a machine gun, stepped on the stone pavement like a gust of wind, and rushed to the short embankment in front of him. Although it was getting darker, In the light of the cannon fire, I could vaguely see a group of shadows jumping onto the embankment. A burst of machine guns rang out, followed by machine guns on both sides, and within ten minutes, there was already a killing charge ahead. With the explosion of the grenade, I shouted. I couldn't bear it any longer, and went to the embankment outside the command post to look at it. The enemy's mortar position firing red fireballs had moved two miles away. , the enemy machine gun positions with tongues of fire are also retreating in twos and threes. Our three groups of flashing flames are gradually moving forward under the embankment in front. After a burst of sparks flashed, there was a distant cry of killing I knew that Commander Chai was coming to charge again. I stood on the embankment and watched in a daze. I forgot that shells would fall on my head at any time. Later, a soldier stood up and called me: "Report to the staff, the regiment commander is here." Call, we have brought back the rock protrusion.' I was relieved and went back to the command post. As soon as the telegram was turned on, the teacher called me back. I walked back in the dark." He said this wonderful performance After finishing, just leaned down.He picked up the rough porcelain pot, poured another cup of cold boiled water in his hand, raised his neck, put his mouth on the tea bowl, gurgled a few times, and drank the water in one gulp.

Cheng Jianren smiled and said, "In what you've said, don't talk about the strength of the fighters. You can imagine the tension of this battle just by your whole body efforts." Staff Officer Li said with a smile: "If I still have one life left, when the complete victory is complete, I have a few good performances, or come to a lecture on the Changde Battle, or go to a film company as an assistant director, that's really true." impressive." Cheng Jianren said, "Why not be the director?" He smiled and said, "That's because of the poor technique of filming. But don't worry, no matter if I am the director or assistant director, I will give you and your lover a role status. Without romance, this war film I think it's too rigid." Saying that, he yawned.
