Chapter 49: Persistence

"Kill" Finally, the Japanese army rushed into the main position in the middle of the road commanded by Xie Chengrui, and the cold light of the broadsword swirled again, and the headless corpse fell into the floating soil. Just when everyone on the right flank position thought that the main position could no longer be held, the light and heavy machine guns that had been resting for a while were fired again, and the Japanese soldiers close to the main position were beaten upside down by the fire chain and smashed into minced meat, and the appearance of the defenders' strong firepower made the attacking Japanese temporarily choose to retreat, but their grenadiers immediately launched a return fire, and the target was the defenders' light and heavy machine guns.

The tenacity of the defenders was beyond the expectations of the Japanese army, and judging from the results of reconnaissance aircraft reconnaissance, the number of Chinese troops defending this position was not very large, and after several rounds of tentative attacks, the 36th Wing did not think that the number of defenders would exceed 300 people, but these defenders who were not taken seriously by them gave them a head-on blow. There is no pain, no fear, only unstoppable slashing, and the broadsword death squad prepared by Xie Chengrui gave the Japanese army a good interpretation of what is a soldier in a hundred battles.

"Ah" A Japanese soldier who was shot in the chest knelt down a few steps, and the rifle that came out of his hand flew straight towards Tang Cheng in the trench, and retracted Tang Cheng who was pulling the bolt to withdraw the bullet into the trench, not only retracting his whole body back into the trench, but Tang Cheng actually subconsciously stretched out his hand and held his head and crouched in the trench. "Damn, I'm afraid of the dead." A military boot kicked heavily on Tang Cheng's body, kicking Tang Cheng, who was still palpitating, to a big horse, and turned his head to see that it was Xie Chengrui with a black face, and Liu Goat who was standing next to him who couldn't see his expression.

"This is the soldier of your 88th Division? If it weren't for the tension of the war, I would have shot this death-fearing ghost here. Xie Chengrui pointed to Tang Cheng, who was embarrassed at this time, and it was a lesson in front of Liu Goat, but he didn't know that Tang Cheng and Liu Goat both had an expression of indifference, and even Tang Cheng secretly scolded Xie Chengrui in his heart for being full of food. Ignoring Xie Chengrui's black face, Tang Cheng got up from the trench, picked up his Mauser rifle and continued to shoot at the Japanese soldiers outside the trench.

There was a "boom" explosion, and a cloud of smoke rose not far from Liu Goat, and the soldiers of the two teaching teams screamed and turned into the trench and twitched their bodies. Xie Chengrui didn't care too much about Tang Cheng, just glared at Liu Goat fiercely, and then hurriedly ran along the trench towards the heavy machine gun position. "Take care of him, we are from the 88th Division, what is wrong with him as the commander of the teaching corps, we have only 5 people left, I'm afraid he is a bird." Liu Goat could see it, and felt out two bullet bridges and threw them in the floating soil in front of Tang Cheng.

Tang Cheng didn't know what Lu Dao was for Xie Chengrui, so he couldn't look down on the second company from the 88th Division, but the second company was under his command, and the battle that should be fought was not pulled down, and the second company was now tossed and there were only 5 gasps left, and the ghost knew how Xie Chengrui would still be so unhappy. The first attack of the Japanese army has been repulsed, Xie Chengrui and they came over when it was the interval of the continuous attack of the Japanese army, Liu Goat just left for a while, the sound of shells breaking through the air sounded again, and the Japanese army began to attack again.

The veterans knew that they wanted to target the wounded soldiers who were wounded and struggling on the battlefield, not to kill them, but to kill those who went to help. Don't fall down on the battlefield, because the chance of being able to stand up is very slim, maybe as soon as you fall, more than one enemy gun has been aimed at you, at this time Tang Cheng is like other veterans on the battlefield, raising his gun to aim at a Japanese soldier who has been shot and struggling. It was too far away for Tang Cheng to see the Japanese soldier's appearance clearly, but with his own feelings, Tang Cheng felt that the Japanese soldier's age didn't seem to be very old.

"Bang" Tang Cheng fired, and a soldier who stopped and wanted to reach out to pull the wounded Japanese soldier fell down, not bothering to pull the bolt to withdraw the cartridge case, Tang Cheng moved a few positions to his right with his rifle. Tang Cheng hadn't counted how much money he had opened today, but he remembered that the number of Japanese soldiers he had shot was exactly 12, no more, no less, and there were already enough for a dozen. …

The gunfire on the position was one after another, but the number of Japanese troops was too large, and the Japanese also used mountain artillery and mortars to join the battle, and after a few minutes, the Japanese army's earthy yellow crowd still attacked the trench of the right flank position. "Rush!" The broadsword death squad soldiers in the trenches jumped out of the trench with a roar, and the dead soldiers began a new counter-charge that was desperate for their lives. "Kill, kill, kill." The other soldiers in the position also jumped out of the field, following behind the death squad and rushing towards the oncoming Japanese troops.

Tang Cheng did not follow the charge, but dropped his rifle and pulled out the shell gun. There were at least more than 100 Japanese troops attacking the right flank position, and those people in the teaching team alone could not stop their attack at all, rather than jumping out of the trench to play with the Japanese army, it was better to engage in a hand-to-hand shootout with the Japanese army in the trenches, relying on the strong ammunition capacity of the 20-round barge gun, Tang Cheng felt that he would not suffer. Tang Cheng is obviously not the only one who has this kind of thought, all the 5 people of the second company stayed in the trenches, Zhou Fu just woke up, and squatted beside Zhou Fu with a big knife from nowhere.

After changing the firing position, the bullets that flew out from the muzzle of the gun were fired diagonally into the Japanese attack formation. It was the first time that the Japanese army used this kind of light machine gun, and the bullets that fired out of the muzzle had always been a little fluttering, but such fluttering bullets made the attacking Japanese rear team a little unbearable. "Spread out, spread out." The Japanese officer was shouting loudly, and the sound of "poof, poof, poof" bullets entering the body began to sound, and several Japanese soldiers were splashed with blood almost at the same time, and these Japanese soldiers did not even have a chance to struggle, they were directly knocked down and fell to the ground motionless by the residual impact of the bullet that passed through their bodies.

The opponent's right flank positions were almost bulldozed by cannon fodder, and they still had the ability to use machine gun fire to block them. "Bang" Tang Cheng, who was extremely nervous, but at this time he entered the realm of selflessness, and put down the officer who commanded the Japanese advance with just one shot, Tang Cheng didn't know that he was shot by a Japanese second lieutenant, he just subconsciously felt that the guy with the katana should be an officer.

"Boom" "Boom" "Boom" The soldiers of the teaching team who followed the death squad threw grenades, and more than a dozen grenades crossed the death squad high and fell into the crowd of Japanese soldiers. The grenade exploded, and the ferocious shrapnel rained out, hitting the Japanese army with a blood mist, and at this time, the daredevils wielding broadswords finally collided with the Japanese army's forward soldiers, and in an instant, a scene of people turning on their backs appeared in front of Tang Cheng's eyes.

This is a hand-to-hand fight for life, the distance between the two sides is close at hand, give up bullets and grenades, but use cold weapons to fight together, Tang Cheng has no envy and no kind of decisive heart, there is Robert and Liu Goat's edification, Tang Cheng actually hates hand-to-hand combat with the Japanese army at every turn. Hedging in another sense is actually attrition, if the national army has a numerical advantage and the Japanese army fights and consumes it doesn't matter, but the number of fairy A national army is at a disadvantage, and the Japanese army can only be at a disadvantage.

The steady stream of Japanese soldiers who pressed up made the daredevils who rushed out of the trenches feel breathless, even if the soldiers who rushed out of the trenches behind them also joined the ranks of hand-to-hand melee, they were still squeezed close to the trenches by the Japanese army, and if they retreated, they were about to fall into the trenches behind them. Tang Cheng carried his two shell guns and panted back and forth in the trenches, his two shell guns became a sharp weapon to suppress the Japanese army, and at least three Japanese soldiers who jumped into the trenches had become ghosts under his guns.

With a loud "boom", a violent explosion blew up a cloud of smoke at the corner of the trench, and Tang Cheng, who was holding a shell gun and was about to shoot at the Japanese soldiers on the edge of the trench, was shocked to the ground and fell to the ground at once, and the shell gun in his hand was also thrown off. "Boom" was another loud bang, and before the dust after the explosion had dissipated, two Japanese soldiers with rifles jumped into the trench, and Tang Cheng only had time to kill the other one, but the other one was short and took the bayonet in his hand towards Zhou Fuzha who was lying on the ground.

"Click" Tang Cheng, who subconsciously closed his eyes and didn't dare to look, heard a sound like chopping firewood with an axe, and when he opened his eyes, the Japanese soldier who wanted to pick up soft persimmons to eat was even split in two with a big knife by nine catties, and the nine catties drenched in blood were like a butcher. "Boom" "Boom" The Japanese grenadiers turned around and began to bombard the location of the mill and Liu goat, although the mill and Liu goat had changed places, but the Japanese grenadiers still chased after them unrelentingly.

Fighting black guns is what bandits are good at, and in the army, the word black guns is not a good word, but Tang Cheng is doing the thing of fighting black guns now. Almost two shots to change places, carrying the agricultural reclamation invitation Tang Cheng moved back and forth in the trench, the collision of bayonets and broadswords has not yet determined the winner or loser, the Chinese and Japanese soldiers in the melee are screaming, roaring, falling, fighting in front of the trench, the floating soil in front of the trench is soaked in blood, and it becomes the mud under the feet of the soldiers on both sides, but this mud is dark red.

Tang Cheng didn't have time to watch where Liu Goat and Nian Zi were, he just tried his best to shoot the bullets in the chamber of the gun at the Japanese soldiers in the melee, and if he shot and killed one more Japanese soldier, the more national soldiers who were fighting with the Japanese soldiers outside the trench might survive. His arm was already so sore, that he could barely lift it, but Tang Cheng was still holding on, because he knew that if he couldn't hold out to the end, the time when the position was broken by the Japanese army would be the time when he was reduced to a corpse.
