On the other side, the fat man Liu Xiaolei first let the soldiers rest for four hours according to Zhou Wu's instructions, and at midnight, he took more than 800 brothers with two sapper shovels on his body, and ran towards the position with a clang.
The fat man didn't say anything about his efficiency, and it took less than half an hour to run away and rush to the front line.
Li Li, the commander of the second regiment, had been waiting for them in the position for a long time, and when he saw the fat man coming, he didn't say a word, so he worked with him in full swing.
There were more than 2,000 men and horses from the fat man and Li Li, and except for a few light and dark sentry posts that had to be set up, all the others came to dig trenches.
In an instant, thousands of shovels flew and the dirt fluttered.
Zhou Wu had already explained to Li Li and asked him to temporarily listen to the fat man's command in this operation.
Li Li naturally had no opinions, let alone resistance.
He turned out to be a company commander, but because of his bravery in battle, coupled with the death of the old battalion commander before, he was promoted to the commander of the second regiment.
His qualifications are not enough, and the rank of the fat man is higher than him, so it is only fitting for the fat man to command this battle.
The most important thing is that the fat man has fought a tough battle, has seen more of the world than him, and has experience in commanding mixed troops, so Li Li still respects the fat man very much.
The fat man loves to listen to good words, Li Li's sweet words and flattery are so sweet that the fat man doesn't know who he is, but fortunately, the basic principles can be grasped and he won't poke any big baskets.
Zhou Wu took a fancy to the personalities of these two people, so he let them guard the front line together, if they sent a grumpy past, maybe they would fall out with Li Li.
On the battlefield, the collapse of the two military commanders is not a joke, at least it will affect whether Luodian can hold it, and at a large level, it will affect the success or failure of the entire Songhu war.
After digging for about two hours, suddenly there was a rumbling explosion from the east, and the fat man knew that it must be Zhou Wu who was connected to the devil.
Ignoring anything else, the fat man hurriedly asked someone to measure the trench, the depth was about the same, but the width was not enough, according to Zhou Wu's requirements, the width must be more than five meters, and now it is only three meters at most.
"Liu Tuanzuo, let's stop digging for now, let's prepare to meet the enemy, what if the devil takes advantage of the chaos to touch it."
Li Li said.
"It's okay, the little devil won't be able to come for a while.
You take some people to the bamboo forest to cut some bamboo roots, remember, don't want the green ones on it.
My brothers and I continued to dig holes and widen the trenches. ” Why do you have to cut bamboo Although Li Li was confused, he didn't ask much, turned around and took someone to cut the bamboo.
About half an hour later, Li Li came back with the bamboo roots, and the fat man estimated that there were almost more than 3,000 roots.
"Brothers, each of you tie two bamboo roots to me for stilts, this pit is too deep, it is just right to tie the bamboo roots, you can not only walk around in the trenches, but also expose the trenches to fight devils."
"The brothers who didn't get the bamboo roots put up those bullet boxes or grenade boxes as stools, and if the devils sneak up, you can shoot the same."
"But you remember to listen to my orders, I said to retreat, you just take the things under your feet, don't leave anything behind, mortars and heavy machine guns are taken away together, understand?"
Now everyone finally knows Zhou Wu's intention to ask them to dig a pit, it turned out that he wanted to trick the little devil into falling into a pit more than two meters deep, and then use artillery to bomb it intensively, so that the little devil has no way to escape.
After figuring it out, the brothers were all full of energy, and tied the bamboo roots according to the fat man's instructions, and soon everyone became a juggler on stilts.
"What are you laughing at, hurry back to your position and get ready for battle."
The fat man said with a straight face.
"Commander Liu, how do you know that the devils will come to touch the position tonight, weren't they beaten badly by us during the day" Li Li was puzzled.
"The little devil will definitely come tonight, and it will not be less, you just let the brothers cheer up and wait, you will be busy then."
The fat man pretended to be mysterious.
"I don't know what happened to them, it's been more than an hour since I heard the explosion just now, Liu Tuanzuo, can they withdraw from the brigade?"
Li Li was very worried about Zhou Wu, it was easy to sneak attack an arsenal, but it would be difficult to retreat after the sneak attack.
"Phew, you crow's mouth, who is our brigade, what danger can there be if you take more than five hundred brothers to an arsenal guarded by only two hundred devils, even if you are surrounded by reinforced devils, aren't there still Ge Sanmin and Lao Zhao?"
"I said, why don't you understand the intention of the brigade, this operation is a bait, deceiving the little devil to be fooled.
Well, we are also bait, and it is Ge Sanmin and Lao Zhao who collect the net, yes, and his mother's Zhang Ercheng. ” "Oh, then we're just acting with devils, and we have to act like a little bit, we can't run away as soon as we fight, otherwise we won't be able to deceive the devils."
Li Li suddenly realized.
"Okay, you kid, you have a future, that's it, as long as we can trick the devil in, our task will be completed, and then we will watch a good show."
As he spoke, something shiny suddenly rose in the dark sky, and in an instant, the originally dark earth became as bright as day.
The fat man looked around, the front of the position was densely packed with devils, at least there was a brigade of nearly 1,000 people, as for how many were behind, it was not clear, and it was dark and could not be seen.
"The devil is coming up, ready to fight."
The fat man was not slow to react, and shouted hoarsely.
At the same time, the devil screamed and rushed towards the position, and since he could not figure out the number of the national army, he fired a flare.
The captain of the devil squad looked at it through the bright light, and was dumbfounded, why was there no one on the position What about people It's all gone "Impossible, how can the Chinese army run away after just winning a battle during the day."
Immediately, there was a rebuttal from the devil officer.

At this time, the leading devil Shaozuo received a message from Shangmei.
"A large number of Chinese troops were found attacking the supply depot on the eastern flank of Luodian, and according to the report of Lieutenant Watanabe, who was guarding the warehouse, the Chinese army was estimated to be more than 4,000 people."
"According to air force reconnaissance and people friendly to Japan in Shanghai, the independent brigade guarding the west flank of Luodian has been ordered to rescue the 29th Division."
"Therefore, it can be concluded that the defense of the Independent Brigade on the western flank of Luodian is empty, Shaozuo, pick up your sword and capture the position, General Matsui is waiting for your good news."
After reading the message, the devil Shaozuo was overjoyed, thinking that there was no one on the opposite side, so what are you waiting for, hurry up.
Seeing that the devil got up and charged, the fat man shouted: "Brothers, hit me hard" Suddenly, 82 mortars, heavy machine guns, Czech-made light machine guns, medium formal rifles, and Wang Ba boxes fired at the devils who rushed up.
The devils who rushed up thought that there were not many people on the national army's position, but they didn't expect so many soldiers to appear again, and they were so frightened that they were in a mess.
However, the devil was well-trained after all, and quickly woke up from the chaos, and under the command of the devil Shaozuo, the offensive formation immediately dispersed.
Immediately afterwards, the devil's small steel cannon opened fire with a crooked machine gun, and several recruits next to the fat man had little combat experience, and when they shot, their bodies were exposed to the trenches, and they were immediately knocked down by the devil's machine gun.
One was directly hit in the head by a machine gun bullet, and the white brain mixed with red blood splashed the fat man's face, and the fat man shouted anxiously: "Brothers, resist me, smash the grenade" As soon as the words fell, a whooshing sound sounded in the dark sky, and grenades smashed into the Japanese soldiers one after another, accompanied by bursts of flashes and strong explosions.
The devil screamed and was sent into the sky and fell to the ground heavily, stump and internal organs scattered everywhere.
The fat man was worried that the devil would take advantage of the chaos to outflank him, so he used the phone to ask Zhang Ercheng, who was on standby behind him, to send a flare to indicate the location of the devil.
In the darkness, soldiers were constantly shot and fell to the ground, and some people could not stand the pain and rolled back and forth in the trenches, wailing in pain.
At this time, on the western flank of this Luodian, there was the sound of weapons firing, the flames of explosions, and the shouts of people fighting to the death on both sides.
The heart-rending screams have turned this poetic and picturesque Jiangnan water town with small bridges and flowing water into a veritable flesh mill and meat grinding slaughterhouse.
"Damn, why didn't Zhang Ercheng fire flares yet" The fat man scolded while shooting.
Suddenly, fifty or sixty meters in front of the position, a big thing like a gasoline lamp appeared, and the originally black earth was instantly illuminated.
The fat man quickly took a look at the situation on the battlefield, my obedient, the boss in front of the position and the unclear place behind him was full of devils, and there were tanks in the middle.
Looking at this posture, the devil is determined to eat here tonight.
Up to now, even those devil guns on the river in the distance have greeted the position regardless of their own casualties.
The fat man wanted to retreat, but after thinking about it, Zhou Wu hadn't sent a signal yet, indicating that they hadn't brought the devil's army over, so they couldn't retreat, and they had to resist it.
"Brothers, the life and death of the brigade seat depends on us, give me a hard beating."
The soldiers fell in rows, and the various firepower of the little devils was as fierce as poisonous snakes, and the machine gun positions on the fat man's position were dumb.
Li Li and the fat man saw that it was okay, and hurriedly rushed over, and they started with one machine gun and one person.
Everyone resisted desperately, but there were more and more devils, and there were several places on the position that were broken through by the devils and jumped in, fortunately, the trenches were dug deep in advance, and the devils who were blind in the black light jumped in without psychological preparation, and suddenly fell on their backs and forks when they stepped on the air, and they were slapped into meatloaf by a group of sappers before they got up.
These devils rushed in through the gap and didn't understand what was going on until they died.
The gap was quickly blocked by the new soldiers, and a burst of heavy machine-gun fire and a burst of grenades cleared all the little devils closest to the position.
The fat man finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the blood on his head and muttered: "Why is there no news from the brigade, his mother's little devil is too fierce, and he almost didn't carry the wave just now." ” "Li Li, you order some people, how many more can you fight."
Hearing this, Li Li hurriedly called someone to count the casualties, and there were more than 2,000 people defending the position, and after this wave of devils attacked, they lost more than 600 people, and there were less than 1,400 people left.
Moreover, among these people, there are more than 500 lightly and seriously wounded, and less than 1,000 people can really be beaten.
When the fat man heard this, his head buzzed, and his body staggered, but fortunately two brothers next to him helped him, otherwise he would have fallen to the ground.
Hurriedly calmed down, the fat man took a sip of water and said, "Lao Li, it seems that our brothers are more than lucky today."
They didn't send a signal, and the little devil will come up again in a while, and we people alone won't last long. ” "Well, you take the wounded first, and I and the rest of the brothers will stay until the last moment.
Look at my signal, as soon as the signal is sent to indicate that we are almost all killed, you quickly ask Zhang Ercheng to fire at the position. ” "My old Liu is 27 years old, and he is loved by the brigade seat, and he has been in the army for less than ten years and is already a regiment commander, and he is content.
The only regret is that I don't have a daughter-in-law when I'm so old, and it seems that the task of inheriting the old Liu family will not be completed.
You go back and tell the brigade that my father will take care of him in the future. ” The fat man's culture is not high, but these heartfelt words made Li Li, a tough guy, fall into tears.
I wanted to persuade him a few words, but I didn't know where to start, so I could only hold the fat man's hand and keep shaking and shaking.
Just as the brothers confessed their last words and parted with life and death, a sharp-eyed soldier suddenly shouted: "Regimental seat, look, signal flare, brigade signal flare" t1706231537:
