Roundabout combat is not as simple as it says, it is the most physically demanding tactic, and the soldiers of the second company still carry ammunition that exceeds the amount of equipment of ordinary soldiers, which is a great test for Tang Cheng and the people of the second company. But it is not detouring and no, the task of the second company is to contain the Japanese armored fire, fighting for dozens of lives and 2 battle defense guns, the second company can complete the task, Tang Cheng does not want to be named a deserter, and gave up his exploits to the people of the 30th Army.

Tang Cheng withdrew the second company of the fighters and withdrew along the bushes, until they could no longer hear the gunfire behind them, and then they stopped to rest in exhaustion. "After counting the number of people, counting the 5 artillery soldiers of the 30th Army who survived, we still have 30 people left, and the grenadiers and machine guns are all there, but there are only 3 flower machines left." Niu Laogui, who had a gloomy face, sat next to Tang Cheng, muttering to Tang Cheng who was a little absent-minded in a low voice, while looking around at the soldiers of the second company scattered around.

All the soldiers of the second company were so tired that they would all collapse to the ground panting for breath, and some of them could not even unscrew the lid of the kettle, and the running had exhausted their strength. Tang Cheng, who was sitting on the ground without saying a word, stretched out his hand to rub his two legs that had lost his senses, but he used more force, and the military pants that were already covered with stains and blood were actually crumpled and torn, and Tang Cheng, who couldn't cry or laugh, had to slowly turn his ankles and move his legs.

There were 42 people when the second company was tasked with the task, counting the gunners sent by the 30th Army, plus a piece of less than 60 people, listening to Niu Laogui said that there were 30 people left, Tang Cheng subconsciously raised his head and looked at the surrounding soldiers. If you fight, you will die, this is something that even a fool knows, but after a battle, there are only about 20 people left in the second company, and Tang Cheng's heart is full of melancholy. "You can't fight anymore, if you continue to fight, the people of the second company will be gone." Niu Laogui's words seemed to be talking to himself, but they clearly entered Tang Cheng's ears.

Gritted his teeth and stared at Niu Laogui with an expressionless face, according to what Tang Cheng heard in the commentaries in Beiping City, Niu Laogui's words just now were called shaking the hearts of the army, and in ancient times, it was a person who pushed out the head to cut off the head. "We can't fight anymore, and besides, we don't have enough manpower to fight the little devils." Xu was aware that Tang Cheng was looking at him, Niu Laogui calmly turned his face to Tang Cheng, and repeated what he had just said, and the anger in Tang Cheng's eyes was completely ignored by him.

"The little devil's tank was knocked out by the battle defense artillery, and we have some grenades and explosives left now to deal with the iron shell of the little devil, but you know in your heart that those things can't overturn the little devil's tank. The brothers have eaten half a piece of bread all day, which will be tired like a dead dog, not to mention fighting with the little devil, even if you run a few more steps, you can't breathe, what do we use to fight the little devil? Niu Laogui's voice became louder and louder, which had already attracted the attention of many soldiers of the second company, and Niu Laogui stopped talking.

"There are no deserters in the second company" Tang Cheng did not immediately answer Niu Laogui's question, but was stunned for a while before he slowly came up with a sentence. After saying these six words, Tang Cheng struggled to sit up from the ground, only caring about sorting out his guns and bullets but no longer paying attention to Niu Laogui. He knew that Niu Laogui was right, and he also knew that Niu Laogui was not afraid of death and war, but the second company was the lifeblood of Xie Bo and Liu Goat, and since he promised Liu Goat that he would bring the second company back to the 88th Division, he could not be named a deserter in the name of the second company.

"I'm going back to the position of the 30th Army to have a look, and if you want to come, follow it, and if you don't want to, you can disperse." After sorting out the weapons and ammunition on his body, Tang Cheng left some unnecessary things in the weeds, then got up and looked at the people of the second company coldly, and without waiting for the soldiers lying in the forest to react, he himself carried the Mauser rifle and walked in the direction of the 30th Army's position. The few surviving artillerymen sent by the 30th Army were naturally busy trotting and following Tang Cheng, and the rest of the people of the second company, including Lao Dongbei, all turned their eyes to Niu Laogui, who had a gloomy face.

"It's all fucking looking at me, I'm just a company deputy, take an idea, go to the company commander." Seeing that Tang Cheng had already left without saying a word, Niu Laogui angrily shook his fist on the ground and slammed it, and then scolded and chirped and got up with his rifle and chased Tang Cheng away. The old northeast and the others also have their own thoughts, but none of them know whether there are Japanese troops in the vicinity of the road, and now they can only have a chance to survive if they form a group, so after Niu Laogui got up, the old northeast and they also got up with their weapons and chased out of the forest.

Tang Cheng, who was the first to walk out of the forest, had no time to pay attention to how many people from the second company would follow him, all his attention was on the telescope in his hand, and when Niu Laogui chased people out, Tang Cheng was already half-squatting on the edge of a nest of bushes and took a general look at the surrounding ground. It was almost the same as the ground of the artillery position selected before, and a few hundred meters away from Tang Cheng was still a small forest, and between the two forests was a field full of weeds, and if they wanted to go to that forest, Tang Cheng and they had to quickly pass through the field in front of them.

Tang Cheng hadn't figured out whether to go to the forest in front of him, and if he kept walking between the forests like this, he would lose his direction to a large extent, but Tang Cheng couldn't think of any other way to hide the whereabouts of the second company. The position of the 30th Army was not very far from here, and the sound of explosions could already be faintly heard in Tangcheng on the edge of the woodland.

"Erdezi, you and Shanzi go to explore the way, and if there is no abnormality, the flag will be displayed." Xu saw Tang Cheng's concern, and Niu Laogui, who had been standing beside Tang Cheng and had not spoken, suddenly pointed to the two soldiers of the second company, saying that he wanted them to be the top soldiers to explore the way. Erdezi and Shanzi are the defeated soldiers of the national army intercepted by the second company in Macheng, they were all mountain people before they became soldiers, and the mountains and hilly areas were like flat land for them.

Shanzi, who has a simple personality, didn't say anything, just nodded at Niu Lao Gui, and was busy removing the extra things from his body, but Erdezi couldn't stop scolding, until he was punched by Lao Dongbei, and then he stopped. After removing the superfluous things, Shanzi and Erdezi were left with only a rifle, 20 rounds of ammunition and 2 grenades, Tang Cheng wanted to lend them his shell gun for temporary use, but was stopped by Niu Laogui. "It's enough to have a rifle and 20 rounds of ammunition, if it weren't for Erdezi's fear of death, I wouldn't even want them to bring grenades, there are too many things."

Tang Cheng thought about it, and then took out the bayonet on his waist and pinned it to Shanzi, and Erdezi also found his bayonet to pin it on his waist. An old northeast who looked ahead gestured, and Shanzi and Erdezi, who were lightly armed, rushed out of the woodland into the field, and the cat ran to the opposite forest with a distance from the left and right. Although Erdezi is afraid of death, but after really rushing out of the forest, he can see the true nature of Erdezi's veterans.

The wilderness between the two forests is only three or four hundred meters, according to Erdezi's current speed, it may not take a minute to rush to the edge of the opposite forest, Tang Cheng has been holding his telescope, and the backs of Erdezi and Shanzi have been flickering in their telescopes. The weeds in the field are too low, even if the two of them are already cats, but their military uniforms full of gunsmoke and blood stains are still very conspicuous in the field, the closer the two are to the forest, the more Tang Cheng's heart hangs, for fear that there will be Japanese soldiers hidden in the forest opposite.

When they were still twenty or thirty meters away from the forest, Erdezi and Shanzi suddenly stopped, and almost at the same time, they raised their guns and lay down in the field. Seeing this scene, Tang Cheng's heart chuckled and almost cried out, could it be that what he had been worrying about had happened? Could it be that there really were Japanese troops in that forest? In Tang Cheng's full of doubts, Erdezi and Shanzi, who were lying in the field, got up and continued to run, and before Tang Cheng came to his senses, the two of them had already rushed into the woodland with rifles.

The short wait of only one minute was perhaps the longest wait Tang Cheng had ever spent in his life, until he saw the small red flag waving at the edge of the woodland, Tang Cheng had been hanging his heart and then it could be regarded as falling. The small red flag in Shanzi's hand came from the gunners of the 30th Army, Liu Shishi originally wanted to use the small flag of the artillery to wrap his feet, but he didn't think that this would come in handy. Seeing the small red flag, the people waiting in the forest here all knew what to do, and without waiting for Tang Cheng to order, everyone put their weapons in their hands and rushed out of the forest and ran to the mountain on their side, Tang Cheng once again fell behind the most Lu, Liu Shi ran out of more than ten meters, thought about it and slowed down and waited for Tang Cheng, and the old northeast and a few of them had already rushed out of the city and went far away. "Do you see the slope in front of us, that's where we are going next, the sound of artillery has become clearer and clearer, which means that we are getting closer and closer to the battlefield, maybe we can go around this slope and go not far away, we can return to the position." After crossing several small pieces of forest in a row, Tang Cheng and the others came to a slope, and the black smoke faintly visible in the distance indicated that they were getting closer and closer to the battlefield.

Erdezi and Shanzi, who have been serving as spearheads in a row, are still spearheads this time, but this time the two who rushed out of the forest made a disguise, and the branches and weeds cut in the forest were full of insertions, if they were still in the forest, they would look no different from two wooden stakes, but I don't know if the simple camouflage of Lu Dao has any effect in the field.
