Jiebei Village is an unknown small mountain village, located under a hill that is only seventy or eighty meters high.

However, the road from Huzhou to Guangde County is only 300 meters away from Jiepai Village. Therefore, this mountain pass, less than one mile away from the village, has become a must-fight place for both Chinese and Japanese armies.

On both sides of the mountain pass, there are actually the central main position of the 433rd Brigade of the 145th Division. The entire position took a day and night to dig. According to the mountain, five infantry companies dug three trenches on this mountain nearly three miles wide, and resisted the invading Japanese troops from a high point.

The right wing of Liu Ruzhai's regiment was built on a hill near three miles away from the rear. There was also a small path for people entering the mountain. You can walk on the main road about two kilometers away from Jiepai Village.

This is also the reason why a group of thousands of people ran on the road in a noisy manner without being discovered by the 145th Division headquarters.

In the past, it was the regiment that ran away, causing the Japanese army to enter the entire line of defense from here, thus encircling the remaining more than 2,000 Sichuan troops on three sides. In the end, the entire army retreated, resulting in the capture of Guangde County.

Fortunately, because there is a shortcut, although it is six or seven miles away from the main position of Jiepai Village, under the guidance of Tang Dao, the First Battalion and the Second Company of the Avengers ran all the way. It took only ten minutes before returning to the position.

At that time, the guard company departed from the 145th Division was one mile away from the left wing position.

Yes, after convinced the Sichuan Army and promised to personally command them in the Battle of Guangde, Tang Dao immediately put it into practice.

Finally, the Second and Third Battalions, which were forced to express their views, retreated back by Leng Feng and Yi Lian, and joined with the main force of the independent battalion led by Lei Xiong. Tang Dao led the guard platoon, the Second Company of the Independent Battalion and the remaining Avengers' First Battalion first reinforced the positions they had abandoned before.

In order to speed up, the first and second companies walked down the mountain. The heavy firepower of two heavy machine guns per company was amazed by the Sichuan Army, which had only three heavy machine guns.

In addition to heavy firepower, the squad leader in the infantry platoon all wore submachine guns, and the squad deputy all wore mullers. The light firepower configuration of Japanese pistols was also made for the Sichuan army, who only had old sleeves and were qualified to be equipped with mullets, drooling in the envy of the Sichuan army, who were qualified to be mulleted.

Only then did they really believe that Tang Dao had said before, "If they insisted on doing their own thing, perhaps one-fifth of them could escape into the mountains."

Such a strong firepower configuration is condescending. No matter how many of them there are, the final outcome will be just a corpse.

With such a powerful comrade-in-arms, and being ashamed by Tang Dao's words, the Sichuan Army, who rekindled their fighting spirit and returned to the battlefield, was running wildly on the mountain road with guns, and was definitely not slower than the elites of the Independent Battalion.

This is also the main reason why they were able to arrive on the battlefield when the Japanese army launched the second wave of attacks.

When Liu Ruzhai led a regiment of main forces to leave, the most desperate person may not be Lieutenant General Rao who was in charge behind the main position, but the infantry platoon who chose to stay on the position.

Because, dozens of them had to face thousands or even more Japanese troops.

No one knows whether they regret their previous ‘hero’ behavior because they don’t have that time.

The Japanese artillery bombardment ended ten minutes ago, and the infantry had already begun a tentative attack. However, the infantry platoon that took the initiative to launch a counterattack was resolutely. Nearly 200 infantry crawled forward to an area about 100 meters away from the first trench. After paying the price of several soldiers being shot dead and injured, they voluntarily retreated.

For the more than 30 Sichuan soldiers who remained on the position, they knew in their hearts that it was not how dense their firepower was or how accurate their shooting skills were, but that the Japanese army had already figured out their reality.

In the next wave of attacks, they will be more targeted and more heavy machine guns to cover them.

If they have sufficient troops, they can use rifles and grenades to block the Japanese troops under the hillside dozens of meters away with their advantage of large numbers.

But now, there are only 36 people in total, and the only light machine gun was left by the battalion commander sighing when he left. They did not dare to use it in the first wave of attacks of the Japanese army. That was already their last killer weapon.

"Platform leader, I'm afraid!" A soldier with black face looked at the 'shit yellow' that was about to move again in the distance, and couldn't help but tremble.

"A son of a turtle, afraid of a hammer, brother, don't put on a diarrhea!" The platoon leader of the lieutenant, who was also not tall, thin and weak, had a loud voice. When he heard the word "fear", he immediately scolded.

However, when he turned around, he saw that the young soldier was so thin that he was almost skinny that he looked extremely thin. Even the smallest military uniform looked extremely strong on him, but his heart was a little soft.

It was the youngest soldier sweet potato in the entire infantry regiment. Because the family was poor, there were still five younger siblings to support him. Just after the fifteenth, he signed up to join the army without telling his family.

As a result, the July 7 Incident broke out less than a month after joining the army. The 145th Division became the first army to leave Sichuan because the division commander took the initiative to ask for battle.

The second lieutenant remembered clearly that on the day they sent them to the expedition, the sweet potatoes' pair of thinner figures than him, who had never left the mountain, took his five younger brothers and sisters to walk in the mountain for two days just to give sweet potatoes five sweet potatoes.

I heard that it was the food rations for their family for two days.

The sweet potatoes with five sweet potatoes were crying sadly, and the parents standing next to the team burst into tears, which made the two dolls on their backs and arms cry with snot on their faces.

The second lieutenant knew what they cried, and his parents cried that they were incompetent, which led to the fact that their children who were not even adults had to go to the battlefield. Sweet potato cried, and he might never see his parents, brothers and sisters again in his life. After all, he was only 15 years old and had never experienced what separation is life and death.

Finally, the division commander who passed by saw it, asked the orderly soldiers to take five silver dollars to give it to the family. Sweet potatoes carried the five sweet potatoes and followed the army from the mountain city to Yiling, and then walked all the way to Jiangxia and Jinling.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! In more than two months, the 145th Division walked two thousand miles and walked all the way to the battlefield.

However, before they even arrived in Songhu, the Battle of Songhu was defeated. Several Sichuan Army divisions, which were marching all by their iron feet, were directly sent to Guangde after Jinling. The military orders were as high as mountains. The Sichuan Army, who had not even had time to change the equipment, came here in summer clothes and straw sandals.

I have eaten the five sweet potatoes of sweet potatoes until now, and there is one in my arms. Although they are wrinkled and are about to break, he is not willing to eat them.

What the lieutenant understood was that it was the last thought of the little sweet potato for his family. The sweet potato was still there, and the warmth of his parents, brothers and sisters was still there.

At this moment, Xiaobing said that he was afraid, of course it was from the bottom of his heart, because even he himself was afraid.

Who can not be afraid of death?

However, a real man has something to do and not to do. Among the dozens of seriously injured soldiers, there were more than ten fellow villagers from the same village and town. If they were left behind and ran away like this, the second lieutenant knew that he would live in the shadows throughout his life and he would not be able to return to his hometown, where he and their parents were there.

Perhaps, even if my parents know the truth, they won’t forgive him!

Turning around, the soldiers who looked sparsely lying on the battle stance were soaked by the smoke of gunpowder that they couldn't see any expressions clearly, but as the Japanese army began to enter the attack state, their bodies were trembling involuntarily.

"Muwazi, I'm afraid, it's useless!" The lieutenant sighed slightly and gently rubbed the sweet potato's little head. "The Japanese will not kill us because of fear. On the contrary, the more we are afraid, the happier they will be when they kill. Do you think so?"

"Do you still remember Tugen, did he kneel there and cry, begging the Japanese not to kill him?"

The second lieutenant said that during the Battle of Si'an, a position in their infantry company was captured by the Japanese army, and their platoon of soldiers who had no time to escape were found from the trenches by the Japanese army.

Tugen wanted to survive, so he raised his hands and knelt on the ground and kept crying and begging, but the two Japanese devils in the Jing'an Brigade of the Puppet Manchukuo were not only unmoved, but were even particularly happy. They kept kicking him and listening to his miserable crying and howling.

Until the end, Tugen began to scold them, and they used the butt and bayonets to kill him to death in front of the Sichuan Army who were rearranging their positions hundreds of meters away.

This is also one of the reasons why this Sichuan military platoon would rather disobey military orders than hold its position!

"Listen to me, if we can't stop those two Japanese devils, just use this, wait for them to surround them and pull the strings. Soon, it won't hurt at all." The lieutenant stuffed two grenades into the soldier's arms and said softly.

"Yeah!" the soldier nodded.

The grenade that had been unbuttoned the back cover and the wrinkled sweet potato were all attached to the soldier's thin chest.

The Sichuan Army Platoon has made final preparations.
