In the dark, 26-year-old Honuese watched the dark night sky in distraction, followed by a patrol team formed by an artillery squad that temporarily picked up rifles.

As a top student of the Imperial Army University, he was promoted from second lieutenant to lieutenant in four years after graduation, and if nothing else, he will go to an infantry brigade to serve as a captain after the war with China, less than 30 years old, for a civilian family, he is also a recognition of his talent.

Honuese, who was born in a commoner, has never had a good impression of a noble-born general like Suzuki Mitsu, coupled with Suzuki Mitsu's stupid behavior of decisively abandoning the artillery brigade for self-preservation, which completely aroused the anger of Motojo Sehao, so he didn't even bother to maintain the respect on his face in front of the two captains.

Although his proposal was vetoed by Kihara Nakasa, Uese had a hunch that the Chinese army would definitely attack his position first.

If you want to say the reason, Ben Sehao can't say, he just instinctively thinks that the Chinese army of the opposite regiment came at a coincidental time, and the position of the position is so good, it is only 800 meters away from their own artillery, how do they know that they will not be shelled when they are stationed there?

If it was luck, it was hard for Hiroshi Motoue to believe that an enemy commander who could leave 5,000 Imperial Army behind in World War I would win the battlefield by luck alone, he preferred to believe that it was the other party's trick.

What a terrible thing it would be if the layout of one's own position was under the control of the other side! Thinking of this, Honuese Hao's body felt a stronger chill.

He would rather come with a patrol to reduce his insecurity than lie in a warm bed and wait for fear to come.

If only she hadn't come to this damn land, Sakurako would have been waiting for her to come home! Honuese couldn't help but touch the photo in his breast pocket, and the beautiful wife was standing under the cherry blossom tree in spring with her young daughter she hadn't seen before, smiling like a flower.

Saburo Koizumi held the Sanba cover that he was not very familiar with, and stood nervously behind Honuese Hao and roamed around the darkness swept by the flashlight lamppost.

What you see is the unchanging bushes and gravel, as well as the suffocating silence.

Saburo Koizumi was so nervous that he could almost hear his teeth fighting.

In fact, if it weren't for the calm figure of Captain Motogami of the infantry squadron who gave him some courage, Saburo Koizumi would have wanted to drop his gun and turn around and run, even if it would greatly damage the honor of the Imperial Japanese Army.

Damn, I'm an artilleryman, not the infantry who only know how to rush forward with their teeth and claws, Saburo Koizumi was very depressed with his heavy rifle in his hand.

As an artilleryman who never has to go to the front line, Koizumi Saburo has very little time to use the 38 big cover, he is fooled by shooting targets once a month, and having a strong army is the pride of every imperial army, in fact, the infantry of the empire does not disappoint, the artillery units are always firmly protected by them, so that the artillerymen can fire their cannons to defeat the enemy, and then the infantry charges, and wins the final victory.

In this almost fixed mode of warfare, Saburo Koizumi never imagined that one day he would have to take on the role of an infantryman with a rifle, and he would still be patrolling in such a terrible and cold night. Somehow, Saburo Koizumi always felt that there were a pair of eyes looking at him in the dark, as if he was a monster, and he could jump out at any time and swallow people in one bite without even leaving slag.

As if sensing the nervousness of the soldiers behind him, Honuese Hao turned his head slightly, took out a pack of cigarettes from his purse, lit one himself, and threw one for Koizumi Saburo.

He puffed out a puff of smoke and asked casually, "Senior soldier, you are also a veteran, can you tell me what you are nervous about?" ”

"Report to the squadron leader, I'm not nervous, just a little cold." Saburo Koizumi, who was afraid to take the cigarette but didn't dare to light it, explained it for himself.

Honuese Hao smiled dumbly, but he didn't expose it, and it was also forced to let the enemy's artillery, which should have been destroyed with shells, serve as a patrol, and the soldiers of the two infantry squadrons must be fully rested, and if the enemy attacked, they were the main force to meet the battle.

"Vigilance is necessary, but nervousness is not, as soon as you are nervous, tactical actions will be deformed, and at critical moments, this will kill you, let me tell you a story." Honuese Hao glanced at the twelve soldiers of the artillery squad behind him and said.

Obviously, he was not just talking to Saburo Koizumi, but to all the soldiers of the patrol, and if he encountered an enemy situation, he would have to rely on these soldiers to withstand the enemy's attack, even if it only took five minutes. Although this is very unlikely, the 7 groups of light and dark posts on the periphery are the most elite soldiers of his 1st Infantry Squadron.

Seeing that all the soldiers pricked up their ears and waited for him, a patrol leader at the rank of captain, to speak. Ben Kamise Hao grinned, and continued to himself: "Superior soldier, you are an artilleryman, I don't know how difficult it is to infantry, two years ago I was only a lieutenant and squad leader, and I was ordered to recover the land of the three northeastern provinces occupied by the people for the ally Manchukuo. The Imperial Japanese Army pointed out that the Shina army fled, but there were still unyielding Shina people who resisted to the death. ”

"That day was also a winter night, I led a small team to assault the position forward, encountered the counter-attack of the Chinese army, taking advantage of the cover of the night, the Chinese army unknowingly touched the front of our position, and when our sentries found them, the forward of the Chinese army had approached within twenty meters."

"Soon, the Chinese army rushed to our position, the position defense became a hand-to-hand fight, their equipment is very poor, but the will to fight is equally tenacious, a tall Chinese soldier with a bayonet rushed towards me, as a graduate of the Imperial Army University, I have never had a real hand-to-hand fight with the enemy, I was very nervous at that time, I raised my gun to fight, just four or five meters, such a close distance, I actually missed, can you believe it?"

Saburo Koizumi was stunned and said, "Can you miss so close?" ”

"You don't believe it? I don't believe it either. "But that's the case, I just missed, that shot didn't hit that soldier, but that soldier stabbed me in the arm with a bayonet, if I hadn't had a veteran next to me sprint through his heart, I'm afraid that when he pulled out his bayonet again, it would be my end." ”

Ben Shang Se Hao said indifferently, but there was a trace of palpitation in his eyes, he still can't forget the eyes of the big Chinese soldier glaring angrily in the moonlight, even if his heart has been pierced, he should have died immediately He actually pushed the bayonet forward more than ten centimeters, if it was pierced on his body, it would definitely pierce the body!

"So, no matter at any time, never be nervous, fear, it will only make you lose your combat effectiveness, only fearlessness can make you survive in the face of the enemy." Honjo tried to hide his palpitations, and continued to finish the most important words that calmed the mood of the entire patrol.

Without waiting for the expected senior soldier's admiring answer, Honuese Hao was a little surprised, puffed out a puff of smoke and subconsciously looked back, and then, he saw Koizumi Saburo looking into the distance with a frightened face.

"Enemy 。。。。。。" Honuese, who has always been vigilant, once again subconsciously appeared these three words in his mind.

Then he saw three long black arrows suddenly appear, as if they had suddenly grown on the heads of Koizumi Saburo and the other three soldiers, and stuck straight into the foreheads of the three soldiers.

The consequences of such a long arrow growing on the head are self-evident, and the wild boar has to kneel, not to mention the devil. Saburo Koizumi and his two companions, who had just listened to Captain Honjo's extremely demagogic story, no longer had to listen to stories to calm their nerves.

Only the living are entitled to be nervous.

For example, Captain Motoe Sehao, who was not armed with a spear, was not regarded as the first target, so he was so nervous now.

Killing three birds with one stone, the mountain eagle, who had spent a huge amount of energy ten meters away, threw down the longbow in his hand, and rushed towards the devil's patrol with a military thorn.

And Captain Honuese, who was trying to maintain his composure and draw his gun while preparing to open his mouth to shout, ushered in the second big Chinese enemy he had encountered in his life.

This one was much taller than the big soldier who died in front of his eyes.

But the big eyes that stared were the same, and this was the last thought in Honuese's mind.
