Everyone can finally take a breath and eat something. The morning meal is brought to the position by the cooks in the cooking class who risk their lives. Of course, the most important thing is the compressed biscuits and some cans that everyone brings, so they can have a bowl of hot food. The water is already very good.
Zhang Xian¡¯s assistance this time moved the seventh company commander deeply. The seventh company commander really wanted to borrow the heavy machine gun he brought, but he also knew that this kind of thing was a rarity. There were only one or two in the whole regiment. The independent battalion was specially taken care of by the division commander and had two of these weapons. Now that Zhang Xian had just brought one over, he would have no use for it. Unexpectedly, Zhang Xian had already seen his intention. To his surprise, Zhang Xian proactively agreed to leave the Maxim heavy machine gun to him, but told him that it was a loan and he would still have to return it in the future. of. In fact, Zhang Xian knew very well that this main position was the key to Nanlinpo. Therefore, if the main position was lost, the flanks on both sides would lose their meaning.
Zhang Xian returned to his left-wing position and counted the casualties. It was pretty good. There were more than 180 people in three platoons, and only five were killed, but there were more than 20 injured. After sending the wounded off the battlefield, Zhang Xian rearranged his defenses and prepared to face another enemy attack.
However, this time, the Japanese did not attack immediately, that is, at about nine o'clock, Zhang Xian heard the roar of airplanes in the sky. "No! The Japanese are going to use planes to bomb!" He thought immediately and loudly ordered his soldiers to hide in the bunker. Everyone ran into the bunker along the trench. Zhang Xian was still directing. Suddenly, he saw a machine gunner coming over carrying a Czech light machine gun. He tripped and fell to the ground, and the machine gun on his shoulder was thrown out. moat. Zhang Xian jumped up, rushed out of the trench, and went to retrieve the machine gun. In this position, having one more machine gun meant that he was more certain of victory.
In the sky, five Japanese bombers, escorted by four fighter jets, had arrived over the Nanlinpo position. These planes flew very low, almost grazing the mountain ridges. When the bomber passed the Nanlinpo position, the bomb was also dropped. Zhang Xian quickly fell to the ground, and the bomb exploded next to him. He heard the deafening explosion and felt the earth shaking constantly. , his whole body began to shake, and the soil kicked up by the bomb flew up high, and fell almost burying his entire body. His ears couldn't hear any sound at that moment. When he opened his eyes, his eyes were blood red and he couldn't see anything in front of him. He closed his eyes and his mind went blank.
It seemed that after a long time, Zhang Xian heard someone crying loudly beside him: "Batalion Commander! Battalion Commander! Don't die!" This was Xiong Sanwa's voice. Damn it, he was not dead. What a mournful thing this kid is crying out for!
Zhang Xian got up, knelt on the ground, shook the dirt off his body, opened his eyes, and then saw clearly the tearful Xiong Sanwa in front of him. He frowned and said in annoyance: "Why are you crying? I still He¡¯s not dead!¡± Although he said this, he felt extremely warm in his heart.
Xiong Sanwa was stunned for a moment, then grinned.
The enemy's bombers were still bombing the Nanlinpo position, but most of the bombs were dropped on the main position in the middle. Zhang Xian looked at the bombed bunker built on the opposite peak, and felt in his heart. It's extremely anxious.
"Hurry and take cover!" Captain Gan popped his head out of the trench and shouted to Zhang Xian and Xiong Sanwa. Planes are still circling in the sky, and the danger has not passed yet.
Both Xiong Sanwa and Zhang Xian stood up, Xiong Sanwa quickly jumped into the trench first. Zhang Xian's movements were a little slow. He was really sad when he was shocked by the bomb just now. He was still feeling a little uncomfortable at this time. He had just run into the trench with a machine gun in his arms, but he heard enemy planes roaring behind him. "Be careful!" Captain Gan shouted, and suddenly threw himself on Zhang Xian, pressing him to the ground. At the same time, Zhang Xian'er listened to the sound of bullets fired by the enemy planes.
A Japanese Zero fighter skidded into the sky wiping the trenches. This plane must have been escorting their bombers. I must have seen Zhang Xian's military uniform. He was obviously a different officer from the soldiers. Maybe he was in this position. The supreme leader, so the Japs pilot flew over and shot him without hesitation.
Zhang Xian stood up and picked up Gan Liang, but he touched blood on his hand. "Captain Gan! Captain Gan!" He shouted hoarsely, but Gan Liang never woke up again. The bullets fired by the Japs just now were originally going to hit Zhang Xian, but Gan Liang took it for him without hesitation. The bullets hit Gan Liang from his back to his head, penetrating his body and almost hitting him. Ten bullet holes formed a hornet's nest in his body. Before Gan Liang died, he didn't even leave a word behind.
¡°Gan¡ªcompany¡ªchief¡ª!¡± Zhang Xian suddenly understood, and his whole bodyHe became crazy and roared so furiously that he felt that heaven and earth were no longer important, and that there was no difference between life and death. He didn't care about the blood all over his body, nor did he feel the sight of his eyes dim with tears. He shouted loudly and picked up the heavy machine gun, stood up suddenly, and headed towards the machine gun that had just flown away and turned around. The fighter scolded: "Come on, I'm your mother's little devil! Come towards me!"
All the soldiers in the trench looked at their battalion commander in surprise. In their memories, the battalion commander had always been the most amiable and gentle man, and the commander they respected and admired most. They had never heard The battalion commander cursed my mother so loudly. But this time, even though they heard the battalion commander's curse, in everyone's eyes, they still felt that the battalion commander was great and brave, and it did not affect his image in their hearts. Everyone was impressed by the battalion commander. was shocked by his actions.
"Batalion Commander!" Xiong Sanwa and Bai Jingsheng shouted at the same time, rushing out together and pushing Zhang Xian to the ground.
"Push!" A string of bullets hit Zhang Xian's side. If he had been standing just now, he would have been like Captain Gan at this time.
Zhang Xian stood up again, holding the machine gun and firing violently at the enemy plane in front of him. The bullets hit the outer shell of the plane, sending out sparks. He remembered his experience in the air battle in western Yunnan and knew the weaknesses of this aircraft. The Zero fighter was so clear that he could clearly see the face of the pilot. At this time, after firing a string of bullets, the Japanese pilot was adjusting his position and preparing for the second shot. It was just a fleeting moment. When he saw the Japanese pilot, he shot the bullet there without mercy. The Zero fighter's armor against the pilot was very thin, and the machine gun bullets easily penetrated the thin aluminum skin and hit the smug Japanese pilot's head.
This Japanese Zero fighter jet fell down the mountain, only to hear a "boom" sound, it hit a cliff, made a loud bang, burned and was dismembered and fell down.
"Okay!" Almost everyone on the battlefield cheered in unison. Bai Jingsheng and Xiong Sanwa stared at their battalion commander blankly, unable to believe their eyes.
It was not until later that Zhang Xian knew that he was the first person in the 11th Division to shoot down a Japanese plane with a light machine gun. Someone in the 11th Division also shot down Japanese planes before, but only with cannons and heavy machine guns.
****************
The battle is still going on, and there is no time for Zhang Xian and the soldiers of the first company to mourn for Captain Gan.
The bomb was still exploding on the hill. In just over two hours, the hilltop with green pines and green trees had been reduced to a bald ridge. The main position in the middle was even more bleak, and the only bunker was also bombed. Ping, many soldiers were buried in the soil. As soon as the Japanese plane left, a regiment rushed up again.
All the soldiers had no time to grieve and once again plunged into the fierce battle.
Zhang Xian pinned all his anger on this Czech-style light machine gun. The machine gun roared with tongues of flame. Watching the Japanese who rushed up fall down one by one, he felt indescribably happy. At this moment, he forgot that he was still a battalion commander, and ignored the machine gunner and Xiong Sanwa who kept snatching away until the enemy was repelled again, and he was carried off the battlefield by Bai Jingsheng.
When Zhang Xian saw Gan Liang¡¯s arranged body again, he suddenly came to his senses. yes! Why did he forget his responsibility? He wanted to lead these brothers alive to victory, not lead them to act recklessly. Even after experiencing great pain, he must maintain a high degree of sobriety. If a person loses his mind, how can he make a correct judgment?
Facing the body of Captain Gan, Zhang Xian burst into tears. And among the people around him, who didn't shed tears?
Captain Li came to Zhang Xian's company. He also heard that one of Zhang Xian's company commanders was killed in action and came to pay his respects. At the same time, he also brought him the division commander's orders. The division commander asked him to leave the First Company of the Independent Battalion under the command of the 31st Regiment to help defend the Nanlinpo position, and at the same time asked him to rush back to the division headquarters immediately.
Zhang Xian had no choice but to appoint Bai Jingsheng as the acting company commander of the first company and handed over the company to Captain Li. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
