"Battalion commander, the regiment commander summons the officers above the company level to return to the regiment headquarters for a meeting." The heralds of the regiment headquarters urged Liu Goat vigorously, the loss of Chunhua Town was something that Xie Chengrui had already decided, but when this moment really came, there was still an inexplicable sadness in the upper and lower parts of the second regiment. gave Qiu Jiangong a look, Liu Goat hurriedly followed the herald of the regiment headquarters, and Qiu Jiangong, who came back to his senses, hurriedly beckoned the veterans of the second company to step up the repair of the bunker, and the Japanese soldiers who were chasing the 51st Division might appear here at Guanghuamen.

Tang Cheng couldn't continue to be idle, and the box of Mauser pistol bullets that Mazi was very unrighteous threw to Tang Cheng, asking him to fill all the magazines of the fast and slow machines in the second company with bullets for backup. The second company has a lot of good days, not only has two Czech light machine guns, but also has one more grenadier, and the ammunition is relatively sufficient, Tang Cheng, who has always been interested in privately hoarding ammunition, took this job with some excitement, and by the way, he can also hide some bullets for himself.

During the day, the Guanghuamen position looked dilapidated and dilapidated, and there was the smell of blood and gunpowder smoke everywhere that had not yet dissipated, Tang Cheng was alone behind a sandbag bunker to fill those spare magazines with bullets, and the soldiers who passed along the trench all looked at this guy with a pile of magazines and bullets in front of him with a strange face, all of them were busy on the position, only this guy was still leisurely fiddling with bullets, it was really fucking unfair.

Tang Cheng is an outlier in the second company, almost all the soldiers in the second company have been assigned to the squad, only Tang Cheng has no squad leader, he is only under the command of the original company commander Liu Goat. Qiu Jiangong, who took over the command of the Second Company, was just a sergeant, which meant that Qiu Jiangong might not be able to become the real company commander of the Second Company, and Qiu Jiangong had never admitted that he was the company commander of the Second Company. Without the existence of the company commander, Tang Cheng would become the master of no one, so although the busy reinforcements of the second company complained about Tang Cheng, none of them dared to point at Tang Cheng in front of him.

Tang Cheng's understanding of war comes from Robert's narration and Xie Bo's war notes, but neither Robert nor Xie Bo's notes mention the way of life in the army, so he developed Tang Cheng's own way of doing things in the second company, if he really knew how to survive in the army, he would not have left alone from Suzhou Hospital, was caught as a deserter, but he had to engage in military law, and if he didn't make trouble, he would be shot directly and lose his life.

"Hidden, there is shelling, hidden." As soon as the shouts on the position reached Tang Cheng's ears, two explosions of "boom" and "boom" had already sounded on the position of the first battalion, and two clouds of smoke also rose from the position of the sandbag bunker where Tang Cheng was hiding, just more than 30 meters away. Tang Cheng, who was no longer frightened by the shelling, did not panic like the reinforcements, but held the bullets and magazines wrapped in the old military uniform, threw himself into the bunker with a fitted body, and covered his ears with his hands, and the whole person curled up like a shrimp and lay motionless on his stomach.

When the Japanese army shelled the positions of the national army, they always liked to fire two test shots to determine the accuracy of the shelling, and then it would be an overwhelming large-scale shelling. However, today's situation is a bit abnormal, after the Japanese army's test firing, there was no tsunami-like artillery salvo, Tang Cheng listened to only a few sparse explosions on the position, which was not the same as the Japanese army's previous practice. Just when Tang Cheng was surprised, there was a strange sound of "hiss, hiss" suddenly came from the sky, although he didn't know what was going on in the road, but many people on the battlefield still felt that the situation was not good, and some people fell to the ground in a panic.

"Boom!" There was a loud bang, and more than a dozen fires rose on the position, and the dazzling fire scorched and rolled the earth and gravel as if to tear the entire position apart. "Hidden, hidden." The officers on the position tried their best to suppress the soldiers under them, "Boom! Boom, boom, boom ......"The Japanese artillery fire struck one after another, and the positions that had been blown up and scattered were all covered in smoke and dust in an instant, and the human body that was blown up in the air and torn into several pieces could be vaguely seen in the flickering explosion fire.

"Come on, little devil, give grandpa a good time." The soldiers on the battlefield who were wounded by shrapnel raised their heads to the sky and roared, enduring the suffocation sensation of the scorching air forcing into their lungs, and the scorching pain caused by the hot mud and sand hitting their bodies, Tang Cheng, whose ears were buzzing, was crying out in despair. He was hoping that the terrible blow would stop soon, and at the same time hoping that a cannonball would tear the screaming fellows to shreds, so that his ears would be at ease.

The Japanese shelling lasted for more than ten minutes, and Tang Cheng, who was curled up in the bunker with his head in his hands, woke up from the confusion, and in the hot pain all over his body, he gradually woke up and knew that the artillery bombardment had stopped, and although he still could not hear any sound in his buzzing ears, the gunpowder smoke on the position had gradually dissipated. Tang Cheng, who had turned over and sat up in the bunker, coughed loudly, he wanted to hear his own cough, but his ears were still buzzing. Tang Cheng, who was in a hurry, wanted to stand up, but he couldn't control his balance at all, and he stumbled and fell back down several times when he stood up; Then he stood up again, and finally he stood up straight.

Through the dust that began to thin out, Tang Cheng looked at the staggered craters on the battlefield and was still in a daze, especially the several flinching flames in the craters were the ghost fires in the legendary hell. Finally, after staggering on the position, Tang Cheng finally saw the first person after the Japanese bombardment - the dusty Liu goat. "You're fucking dead, get down." Seeing that Tang Cheng was still alive, Liu Goat's first reaction was to rush up and press Tang Cheng behind the bunker.

Pulled Tang Cheng's whole body up and down to check it, and saw that Tang Cheng was not injured, Liu Goat relieved himself, and then threw down Tang Cheng, who was still buzzing in his ears, and went to the Mahan and their position next door. After Tang Cheng woke up, there were people in the floating soil on the position who came to their senses one after another, Qiu Jiangong, Ma Zi Face and Zhou Fu were still alive, only Niu Wazi could not escape this catastrophe, he was first pushed out of the trench by the first wave of explosion of gas, and then hit his waist by the shrapnel of the subsequent explosion, Tang Cheng When they pulled Niu Wazi out of the floating soil, the person was already dead.

Looking at Niu Wazi's dead eyes, Tang Cheng forgot that he was still in the midst of the war, and just stared at Niu Wazi's bloodstained corpse stupidly. "Don Jr., can you hear me?" A hoarse male voice sounded in Tang Cheng's ears, waking up Tang Cheng, who was still glazed with his eyes, from his sadness, and nodded at Zhou Fu beside him, Tang Cheng turned around and walked towards the bunker where he had dodged the shells just now, and those bullets and magazines were still under the floating soil of the bunker.

"That's it! This man is all right! Zhou Fu, whose face was covered with sweat and mud, seemed to have some bloodstains, let out a long breath, he didn't know why Liu Goat was so worried about this Tang City, but as long as it was arranged by Liu Goat, Zhou Fu would work hard to complete it, even if Liu Goat wanted him to look at Tang Cheng secretly. Touching back to the bunker where he had stayed, Tang Cheng, who had been holding back, couldn't help but finally vomit, the appearance of Niu Wazi after his death was too shocking, and Tang Cheng's heart, which had been numb, finally collapsed.

From after Robert's death, to Tang Cheng hunting the Japanese alone to avenge Robert, and then to having to commit to the second company in order to get rid of the military command, Tang Cheng has been deliberately paralyzing himself, but Niu Wazi's death made him completely wake up. Just like Xie Bo once said, war is cruel, people will die, either you die or he will die, and they have no chance of being spared when they are on the battlefield. Tang Cheng had fantasized countless times that he would die like the warriors in Robert's story, and the death of the warriors would always win eternal praise and countless praises.

But Niu Wazi's death subverted Tang Cheng's fantasy since he was a child, recalling the appearance of Niu Wazi being buried under the soil, Tang Cheng did not associate him with the hero at all, on the contrary, Tang Cheng had a sour nose and just wanted to cry. Like many soldiers of the National Army, Niu Wazi died quietly, and those who were alive looked impatient to even look at him more. Fortunately, Niu Wazi is a member of the second company, at least Qiu Jiangong and they still want to collect the body for Niu Wazi, if they are changed to other troops, maybe Niu Wazi will stay outside the position and die.

The teary-eyed Tang Cheng looked left and right, the panic on the position was only those supplementary soldiers, the veterans were already waiting for the appearance of the Japanese attacking troops, the officers were trying their best to restrain the supplementary troops under them, each of them seemed to have their own things to do, Niu Wazi and their death seemed to them to be just a trivial matter. After sitting behind the bunker for a while, Tang Cheng suddenly grinned, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and Tang Cheng used his steel helmet to carry the magazines that had been loaded with bullets and distributed them to the people of the second company one by one.

"When you can't escape, you must muster up the courage to face it bravely." This is Robert's favorite sentence, Tang Cheng doesn't know how brave he is, but he is ready to face danger, not to mention that he has experienced a battle formation, and he is also a person who has killed Japanese soldiers. Seeing that Tang Cheng was distributing magazines to the second company, Zhou Fu, who had been secretly keeping an eye on him, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and now he could give an explanation to Liu Goat.

The machine gun on the position of the first battalion suddenly fired, and Tang Cheng, who had no time to look outside the position, subconsciously crouched behind the bunker, grabbed a Mauser rifle that he didn't know who dropped and threw it on the sandbag. Tang Cheng, who didn't want to die so early, dragged his steel helmet and buckled it on his head, and then cautiously looked out of the position, and the full earthy yellow color that greeted his eyes made Tang Cheng gasp, and the Japanese army began to attack.
