Smoke poured over the battlefield like black mist, orange flames erupted from the burning village, crackling and burning, and the air was filled with the smell of burnt and dead men. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Many of the animals that had not escaped the shelling were torn apart, blood was strewn everywhere, the potholed road was riddled with craters, and the fluffy earth was charred and blackened.

The team of the 301st Regiment moved forward in the darkness for about twenty miles, and finally arrived near the battlefield of Huilongji, and the naked eye could already clearly see the bright light rising on the horizon not far away

The light shone violently, and the earth was so clear that the brothers could see the scorched earth and the severed limbs lying on the ground, and the light flickered away, and the earth was once again plunged into darkness.

"Put all the guns on fire!"

The voices of the veteran platoon commanders rang out one after another in the darkness.

Although the well-trained recruits were terrified of the brutal battlefield, they subconsciously pulled the bolt of their guns, put the bullets on the chambers, and were ready for a firefight.

The troops were still making their way into the battlefield of intense firefighting, and the oncoming heat made people no longer feel cold, but stepped into a steamer that could roast people, and sweat ran down their necks into the collars of the brothers, and they unbuttoned their manners to breathe easier.

A terrible whistle suddenly came out of the dark night sky, and the brethren who were advancing towards the battlefield all looked up in unison, and found that there was a trajectory dragging the bright light extending towards the team.

"Dodge! Dodge! While the recruits were still looking up at the whistle light, the mournful voices of the veterans were already ringing.

"Boom-"

The cannonballs fell into the ranks, and the earth shook violently, bursting into a dazzling fire, and before the four or five brothers could react, they were torn apart, and a rain of blood and broken flesh and bones fell in all directions.

The strong wave of the sweeping air swept many of the brothers on their heels, and they were all stunned by the buzzing in their ears, and when they saw the head that had fallen at their feet, they felt frightened and cried out in horror.

"Dead! Dead! ”

The recruits' nerves had been tense, and at this moment, they saw that their companions had been blown up in the blink of an eye, and the string in their heads was broken, and they shouted loudly and desperately.

Shunzi, the deputy company commander of the veteran, smashed the frightened and screaming recruit to the ground with the butt of a rifle, and scolded: "You are yelling a fart, shut your mouth for Lao Tzu!"

Maybe it was the pain in his shoulder that made the recruit forget to keep shouting, or maybe the appearance of the veteran deputy company commander Junko was too serious to calm him, in short, the recruit didn't dare to shout again.

Junko stepped on the dripping flesh, walked to the vicinity of the two-meter square crater, reached out to probe the breath of the brothers who had been blown up, and quickly stood up and shook his head.

"Dead balls, pick up their gear and keep walking-"

Junko's tone was devoid of emotion, as if the dead were not brothers who had been with each other day and night, but strangers, which made the recruits feel the cruelty of war.

Junko climbed from a small soldier to the current deputy company commander, has fought a lot of battles, and has seen a lot of dead people, not so much adaptation, but numbness.

As the team continued to move forward, the battlefield was getting closer and closer, and from time to time shells missed by Japanese artillery fell near the ranks and exploded violently.

Every time the cannonballs hit, the recruits would involuntarily tingle their scalps, and those erratic shells would be like ghosts from hell, popping up from time to time, falling, and then blowing people into ashes, which made their hearts palpitate.

Veterans are afraid of machine guns, recruits are afraid of artillery, and those rumbling cannons are like reminders, making recruits feel shrouded in fear.

The three battalions led by Yang Ling walked to the front of the whole regiment, and saw that the recruits who were screaming on the training ground turned pale at the moment, and they were so frightened that they couldn't hold their guns steadily, and they couldn't help but sigh in their hearts, a soldier who had never been on the battlefield was not a real soldier after all.

Perhaps only after the baptism of blood and fire will they truly transform and grow.

"The muzzle of the gun is up, and not to your own brother." Yang Ling patted a recruit brother on the shoulder and pointed to the muzzle of his gun on the back of the brother in front of him.

Now that all the guns were loaded with bullets, Yang Ling didn't want his own people to hurt his own people.

When the brother heard Yang Ling's reminder, he immediately lowered his head in shame, although he had such a request during training on weekdays, but he just stared at the cannonballs that flew over from time to time, and he still remembered there, so he hurriedly moved the muzzle of the gun away from the back of the brother in front.

"Don't be nervous, don't be afraid when you get to the battlefield, the more scared people are, the faster they will die, see more veterans do it." Seeing that this brother was a little frightened, Yang Ling's gaze softened.

"Yes, sir."

After receiving the encouragement of Yang Ling, the deputy head of the regiment, he was afraid to beat this brother, as if a magical power had been injected into his heart, and he suddenly felt that the battlefield was not so terrifying.

The reconnaissance platoon led by the deputy battalion commander Lao Yangun quickly took over with a platoon in charge of the flank and rear guard of the 305th Regiment that was blocking the Japanese army in Huilongji, learned about the situation on the battlefield, and quickly reported it to Yang Ling.

"The devil's offensive is very fierce, and it hasn't stopped when it's dark, Deputy Brigade Commander Zhang Lingfu is leading people to the front, and he urgently needs reinforcements!" The old smoking gun spoke quickly, and Yang Ling also knew that the situation was urgent.

Zhang Lingfu has been promoted to deputy commander of the 153rd Brigade, but he is still the commander of the 305th Regiment, they arrived on the battlefield earlier than Yang Ling, and they have been fighting in Huilongji for a whole day.

"You report the situation to the regiment headquarters quickly, and I will take the third battalion up first!" Yang Ling immediately made a decision and prepared to take the three battalions to reinforce first.

"Yes!" The old smoking gun immediately threw off his steps and ran towards the regimental headquarters behind, and the figure disappeared into the darkness.

"The brethren of the third battalion obey my command and press up! Be fast! ”

"Quick! Fast! As soon as Yang Ling's words fell, the urging voices of the platoon commanders of each company shouted, and the entire team roared forward and crashed headlong into the battlefield filled with gunpowder.

The combat mission of the 14th Division of the Japanese Army was to cut off the Longhai Railway, control the area west of Xuzhou, cut off the retreat of the main force of the Chinese army in the Xuzhou area, and then encircle and annihilate the main force of the Chinese army.

Therefore, after they encountered the 74th Army's resistance in the direction of Dangshan Huilongji, its vanguard immediately realized that their strategic intentions were exposed, so they desperately advanced to avoid falling short.

Engaged with Zhang Lingfu's 305th Regiment in the direction of Huilongji was the vanguard of the 28th Brigade under the command of the 14th Division, whose attacks were fierce and fierce, and had already broken through the defenders' positions several times.

"Tom, tom, tom,"

The Japanese artillery continued to roar, and the overwhelming artillery fire passed through the smoke and smashed on the defenders' positions in Huilongji.

One after another, explosions exploded in Huilongji, the flames soared into the sky, and the bodies of the explosions floated in a radial shape, and the sky was covered with hazy blood rain.

The deafening sound pierced the ear drums, and the smoky, charred houses collapsed under the fire, raising smoke and dust to obscure the sky.

"Da Da Da ......"

Machine guns from the defenders' firing points sprayed a series of tongues of fire, and water-splashed bullets flew at great speed, puffing into the earth and piercing through the chests of men.

"Hold on! Resist! ”

In the smoke of gunpowder, the officers with their faces blackened screamed as hard as they could, but they were soon drowned out by the sound of explosions in the distance.
