The second battalion commander, Qiao, saw that the devil's tank was about to rush up, and he ordered the thirteenth platoon commander: "Organize the demoman and blow up the devil's tank." ”

The first group of demomen, holding the explosives packs, leaped out of position, braved enemy fire and flying bullets, jumped, pounced, and prostrate, and before they could reach the tank, one soldier fell in a pool of blood.

The other two Demomen suddenly jumped to their feet and rushed towards the enemy tank with explosives packets, and the vicious bullets knocked the two fighters down, and the first blast failed.

Battalion Commander Qiao looked at his watch, there were still eight minutes before he withdrew from the position, but the devil tank that rushed up would not give him eight minutes, and he was about to be crushed to the forward position, he shouted: "The second and third demolition teams, no matter how big the sacrifice is, they will blow up the devil tank that rushed in front for me." ”

The 13th platoon commander led the 2nd and 3rd demolition teams to jump out of the position and pounce on the enemy tanks that rushed towards them.

In order to hold their positions and complete the arduous task of blowing up the devil tank, the fighters of the third demolition team in the back fell to the ground and rolled and quickly approached the enemy tank that rushed over.

The devil tank soldiers found the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army in front of them, rolled and rushed towards the tank, and laughed loudly one by one: "Yanxi, it is really exciting to see the tank crushing the living people with your own eyes." ”

The fighters were about to approach the enemy tank, slamming the fuse and crawling close to the fuse.

The enemy's tank crushed the soldiers under the car into a blur of flesh and blood, three explosions in a row, blowing up two enemy tanks, this is the price of blood and life, in order to defeat the little devil, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army have no hesitation, have put life and death aside.

Taro Hashimoto, the captain of the Devil Mixed Group, found that the two tanks were blown up by the flesh and blood of the Eighth Route Army, and he scolded angrily: "Bastard, the Shina troops are so brave that they blew up my two tanks, and I want to blow up the position of the Eighth Route of the Dirt." ”

He ordered the tanks to fire their guns on the spot, destroy the positions of the Eighth Route Army, and eliminate the Eighth Route Army on the positions.

Seeing that the tanks had stopped advancing, Kameda ordered the infantry to launch the most fierce attack on the positions of the Eighth Route Army, and it was necessary to defeat the Tsuchibachi Army, occupy and consolidate the position, and block the Dohachi counteroffensive under the first round of strong attack.

Battalion Commander Qiao saw that he had blown up two enemy tanks and temporarily prevented the enemy tanks from crushing the front of the position, and his heart was a little more relaxed, he looked at his watch and there were still three minutes, three minutes for him, like a long night, and insomniacs looked forward to dawn sooner.

The enemy launched another fierce fire attack on the position of the second battalion, and the tanks and artillery of the devils fired a burst of power, temporarily stopped the artillery bombardment, and the crazy little devils rushed over with a shout, and under the strong attack of the devils of the brigade, they were about to break through the position.

Battalion Commander Qiao stood up with a machine gun and shouted: "The little devils rushed up, increased the firepower, repelled the devils' attacks, and retreated immediately." ”

There is a huge disparity in the strength of the enemy and us, and the soldiers of the five detachments, one regiment and two battalions, no matter how bravely they kill the enemy, but at this time, the situation on the battlefield is critical, and the little devils are like locusts rushing up, even if every bullet can destroy an enemy, there are too many little devils rushing up, and the second battalion is completely powerless to resist.

Battalion Commander Qiao shot at the little devils who rushed up, and shouted loudly: "Brothers, our blocking and covering mission has been completed, quickly withdraw for me." ”

He held the machine gun and retreated, and the tongue of fire from the machine gun swept towards the little devils who were chasing after him, and the little devils fell one by one, but they still couldn't stop the pursuit of the devils.

The soldiers were shot and fell in a pool of blood during the retreat, and some were wounded and wanted to get up to continue to fight the little devils, but as soon as they raised their bodies, they were trampled by the little devils who were chasing after them and fell down again.

In a fierce battle, an unequal contest, the soldiers of the 2nd Battalion retreated quickly while holding back the enemy.

Battalion Commander Qiao watched the soldiers fall one by one under the muzzle bayonets of the devils, he was furious like a crazy cow, holding the machine gun not only did not retreat quickly, but rushed back to the little devils who were in hot pursuit.

He yelled at the soldiers around him: "Hurry up and retreat, tell the regiment commander, just say that my old Qiao has completed the task, and I can't meet him on the other side of the Sand River, tell." ”

The little devil's machine gun bullet swept towards Battalion Commander Qiao, and several bloody bullet holes quickly appeared in the body in front of him, Battalion Commander Qiao spurted a mouthful of blood from his mouth, fired the last bullet, and fell to the ground with a bang.

"Battalion Commander Joe", "Battalion Commander". The soldiers were about to rush forward with tears in their eyes, and the instructor cried and shouted: "Brothers, in order to cover the retreat of the troops, Battalion Commander Qiao only killed the enemy group, we will retreat immediately, otherwise Battalion Commander Qiao will shed blood and die in vain." ”

The fighters, under the forcible order of the instructor, quickly retreated and finally got rid of the pursuit of the little devils.

Seeing that he had escaped the pursuit of the devils, the instructor stopped and ordered: "Immediately attack the enemy who is hedging in front, and retreat quickly after the exchange of fire." ”

A company commander roared angrily: "Instructor, are you crazy? We just got rid of the pursuit of the little devils, and the soldiers finally picked up their lives, and you are going to send the fighters into the tiger's mouth, what do you mean? ”

The instructor said solemnly: "Brothers, our task is to block the enemy's retreat and cover the retreat of the third battalion and the regimental headquarters, but we also have an important task, that is, to lure the enemy's main force into the ambush circle set up in advance by the seven detachments and two regiments, and destroy the enemy's main force, do you understand? ”

"I don't understand, if you want to rush back, you want to die, my five companies won't do it." The commander of the fifth company said that he was about to retreat in the direction of Shahe with his troops.

The instructor took out his gun and shouted at the back of the fifth company commander: "Zhao Kui, if you dare to take a step back, I will enforce battlefield discipline and shoot you, you will die, and you will not become an anti-Japanese martyr, but a deserter on the battlefield." ”

Zhao Kui, the commander of the fifth company, turned around, walked up to the instructor, grabbed the muzzle of the gun and put it on his head, and said with a pout: "Come on, if you have the ability, shoot it." ”

The commanders of the sixth and seventh companies rushed to the front, pulled the fifth company commander Zhao Kui aside, and said in a bad tone: "You stubborn donkey Zhao, the instructor has said very clearly, this is the combat mission issued by the detachment headquarters to our second battalion, if you really dare to disobey the order, once the battlefield discipline is implemented, then you and the little devil almost lost your life in a life-and-death fight, this kind of heroic feat, you will be buried by all of you, even your family will think that you are a deserter on the battlefield, you think about it, hurry up and compensate the instructor, Execute the order immediately. ”

The instructor said with a soothing attitude: "Company Commander Zhao, I know that you feel that it is not easy to get rid of the pursuit of the devils, and you feel sorry for the lives of the soldiers, and you don't want to take risks again, but our people are luring the enemy, bringing the little devils into an ambush circle, and eliminating this group of little devils. ”

"Don't say anything, I, Zhao Kai, carried out the order of the detachment, went back with five consecutive kills, and lured the enemy into the ambush circle we set, but you must retreat immediately and leave this army for our first battalion, instructor, I beg you."

"Don't be too naïve, just the strength of your company will not lead the enemy into the ambush circle at all, only the second battalion will kill all the horses, and it is not good to say that you can lead the cunning little devils into the ambush circle." The instructor said and ordered: "All companies of the second battalion, kill back, engage the enemy, and must complete the tasks assigned to us by the detachment." ”

Under the leadership of the instructor, the second battalion heroically killed a horse gun, and under careful deployment, as soon as they exchanged fire with the devil's army, the three companies of the second battalion immediately organized a rapid retreat under cross-cover.

The little devil saw the dirt eight roads that came back, and they were about to collapse at the first touch, and the devil Fujiwara brigade, who was the vanguard, shouted and ordered: "Warriors of the empire, the earth eight roads have become a frightened bird, speed up the pursuit, and we must destroy all of this earth eight roads." ”

The second battalion ran wildly all the way, but always kept an inseparable distance from the pursuing little devils, and the teasing devil captain Fujiwara Nakasa was very troubled, and he roared angrily: "Order the troops to pursue at full speed, and kill all the fleeing dirt eight roads." ”
