"Boom ......"

"Snort...... Laugh at...... Sneer......"

An explosion rang out not far away, followed by the distinctive machine-gun sound of MG34, accompanied by the sound of grenades.

"Not good...... There is a case......"

Liang Xue's first reaction was that something had happened, and she jumped up almost immediately, but when she was about to go out of this dilapidated house, she realized that no one here moved, and they were still eating and drinking, as if the gunshots outside had nothing to do with them.

Seeing that everyone looked like they didn't care about themselves, Liang Xue, who was anxious, couldn't help but say anxiously: "Huh...... You guys...... Why aren't you in a hurry at all, there's a fight outside. ”

Speaking of which, no one around her still moved, and anxiously she couldn't help but push the second lieutenant who was eating: "Why are you like this, it's your comrades-in-arms and brothers outside, they are fighting with the Japanese, won't you go over to help?" ”

The second lieutenant glanced at Liang Xue a little strangely, and said vaguely, "Miss Liang...... Naturally, the patrol team will deal with the things outside, and our task now is to rest. ”

"Why...... Don't you care about the safety of your comrades? Liang Xue looked at him in surprise.

"I ......"

The second lieutenant looked at the kind-hearted reporter with a wry smile, and explained helplessly: "Miss Liang, our army has the rules of the army, and each unit also has the tasks of each unit. Our task is to have a good rest, we have to fight during the day, and the task of the patrol team outside is to be responsible for patrolling and guarding at night, so that they can rest during the day, just like your newspaper, each reporter has his own task, otherwise if other reporters come and steal your task, what will you think? ”

"Oh...... I see. Liang Xue made a big red face, and she felt that she was the stupidest one. This is really called a layman commanding an insider.

After apologizing to the second lieutenant, Liang Xue saw that the soldiers around him had finished eating, and many soldiers took out blankets and leaned against the broken wall to prepare to rest, so he was embarrassed to disturb others anymore......

April 1, 29th year of the Republic of China

Today I finally got the approval of Brigade Commander Su and got the qualification to interview with the troops on the front line, and Brigade Commander Su also specially sent two soldiers from the guard battalion to protect me. It made me feel a little flattered. But don't say it, Brigade Commander Su is funny and humorous, if it weren't for his ...... Yikes...... What was I thinking?

It was already 12:38 a.m., and just two hours earlier, I had entered the battle zone of Nanchang City under the escort of two guards. Almost all of the dead bodies and wounded soldiers of our army were carried down by the stretcher team behind. It stands to reason that a person like me who is coming to the battlefield for the first time should be very frightened to see so many corpses, but I don't know why this feeling is not as strong as I thought, is it because I am naturally more courageous?

I have just interviewed several soldiers of the 29th Army, and I can sense from their mouths and demeanors that they have undisguised envy for the soldiers of the Independent Brigade next to them. They envy each other's sophisticated weapons, envy each other's good-looking military uniforms, etc., and what they envy the most is that their counterparts in these independent brigades have a large ocean of military salaries every month, and they can eat pork every day, which is the most important thing. They were even willing to jump ship to the Independent Brigade for this.

I didn't understand this at first, although I knew that they all belonged to the same national army, but it was too hasty to jump ship so easily, right? When I raised my doubts. These soldiers of the 29th Army laughed, and they told me very indifferently that they joined the army just to have something to eat, and it was best to earn some money, and if they were lucky enough to return home alive, they would use the money they had saved over the years to build a house and then ask someone to marry a daughter-in-law, that would be the happiest thing in life.

When I first heard this, I asked them with some puzzlement, didn't they serve as soldiers for the sake of driving the Japanese out of China and for the independence and freedom of the Chinese nation? They laughed when they heard this, and someone even asked me, can I eat freely? Looking at their slightly mocking expressions, I realized that I was wrong, most of these soldiers are uneducated, and the most important thing in their hearts is whether they can survive on the battlefield full of dangers, whether they can live a stable life after returning home after retiring, and this kind of thing is too far away from them.

Well, it's late at night, and I should rest, and tomorrow I'll have to interview with these soldiers. By the way, I forgot to write it down, the numbers of these soldiers are the 2nd Company of the 3rd Battalion of the 2nd Infantry Regiment of the Security Brigade of the Independent Brigade and the 2nd Battalion of the 697th Regiment of the 143rd Division of the 29th Army, the second lieutenant of the Independent Brigade is named Li Jin, and the corporal squad leader of the 29th Army is named Hong Daxi.

The sky slowly turned out of the white belly, and the city immersed in the night revealed its figure again, and the originally silent air heard the fierce sound of gunfire again.

Liang Xue, who fell asleep in a daze until almost two o'clock in the morning, was woken up by the second lieutenant named Li Jin, and when she opened her eyes, she found that all the soldiers around her had already gotten up, and the soldiers on both sides were eating breakfast. Liang Xue also got two steamed buns and a few pieces of luncheon meat, she asked the soldiers of the 29th Army next to her for a bowl of cold water, and ate it in a big gulp, and after she finished breakfast, a truck came to the street behind, the door of the carriage opened, and the soldiers of the Independent Brigade skillfully got into the car to carry down boxes of ammunition, not only brought it herself, but also beckoned the soldiers of the 29th Army next to him to come and get it. At first, the soldiers of the 29th Army were a little embarrassed, but they only shirked a few sentences and stopped being reserved, after all, it was fatal to go to the battlefield but run out of ammunition.

More than ten minutes later, Liang Xue followed Li Jin and the soldiers of the 29th Army and began to advance forward, and their task today was to capture a place called Qingshui Street in front.

Liang Xue found that there were teams along the way to make peace with them, and when they arrived at the destination, their number had reached three or four hundred, most of these people were from the 29th Army, and the people of the Independent Brigade were about the size of only one company, and the commander in charge was a major battalion commander of the 29th Army.

Li Jin and his soldiers first reported to the company commander, who was a little surprised when he saw Liang Xue and asked, "Miss Liang, why are you here?" ”

"You know me?" Liang Xue was very surprised.

The company commander smiled and didn't answer the question, but shook his head and said, "Miss Liang, you shouldn't have come here, this is not a place for you women." ”

"You look down on women?" Liang Xue raised her eyebrows and said, "I have the pass issued by your brigade commander, and I have the right to follow the front-line troops for interviews, so you don't want to drive me away!" ”

"Not really." The company commander seemed to be taken aback, waved his hand, frowned and said in a low voice, "Su Da...... How could Brigade Commander Su issue such an order, isn't she...... Forget it......"

After muttering a few words, the company commander said to Liang Xue with a straight face: "Reporter Liang, you can follow us if you want, but you must remember that you can only follow the back of the army later, and you are not allowed to run to the front without permission to take pictures and observe interviews, you must know that bullets don't have long eyes, and if something happens, I can't explain it to the brigade commander!" ”

After speaking, the company commander said to the soldiers of the two guard companies who followed Liang Xue: "You must protect Miss Liang even more, if something happens to her, I will only ask you!" ”

"Yes!"

The two soldiers straightened their chests and answered loudly.

Then the company commander left to the front to direct the battle.

Looking at the back of the company commander, Liang Xue always felt that there was something wrong with what he said just now. By the way, he said that he couldn't explain to the brigade commander if something happened, and how could it be that a small company commander of his had to explain to the brigade commander? I'm afraid it's hard for him to see the brigade commander on the side, right? Although Liang Xue is not a soldier, he has been in the Independent Brigade for so many days, and he also knows that there is a strict hierarchy in the army, and the gap between a captain and a company commander and a major general is not an exaggeration, and how dare he use that tone to talk to the two soldiers who protect him, you must know that these two soldiers are the guard battalion directly under the brigade headquarters.

Just when Liang Xue was thinking wildly, a fierce gunshot sounded in front of her. As soon as she heard the gunshot, Liang Xue immediately snorted, and reflexively ran forward holding the camera on her chest, and the words of the company commander just now had long been left behind by her.

"Hey...... Reporter Liang...... The front is dangerous, you can't go to the front! The two soldiers were also startled when they saw this, and hurriedly followed......

Four or five minutes later, Liang Xue, who was out of breath, finally ran to the destination, she just turned a street corner, she heard a fierce gunfire from the side, poked her head over to take a look, and found that more than a dozen soldiers in blue uniforms were wiping off a courtyard in front of them, most of the weapons in the hands of these soldiers were old sleeves made in Hanyang, but a small number of people were holding Japanese Type 38 rifles in their hands, and in a corner, a Czech light machine gun was covering them.

"Da Da Da ......"

At first, the Czech light machine gun and the Japanese troops in the courtyard were inseparable, and the two sides fought inextricably, but after a few minutes, the machine gun jammed, and the Japanese troops in the courtyard transferred their fire to the more than ten soldiers of the 29th Army while the machine gun was jammed. Without the cover of machine guns, the situation of the soldiers immediately became difficult, and several soldiers were soon wounded. (To be continued.) )
