At that time, there were howitzers, which were heavy weapons that could beat devil warships, and now they don't even have a 60 mortar on hand Lao Zheng immediately said to Lu Ping: "Battalion commander, the cannons on this devil's big warship are quite powerful, let's quickly evacuate the riverside position and quickly retreat to Gaoyou Lake, we can't fight with these little devils." ” Lu Ping still didn't believe Company Commander Zheng's words, thinking that he was timid and afraid of death: "I said Lao Zheng, are you more and more afraid of the war, although we can't beat the devil's big warship, but we can shoot those devils who come down from the boat and attack here, is it possible that we will withdraw without firing a shot, if they know about the brigade, they will not die of laughter."
Lu Ping really didn't know the power of the devil's warship cannons, and wanted to kill a few little devils who were abandoning the ship and attacking on the battlefield, so he bragged to the fat man when he went back to Gaoyou Lake: Don't look at the fact that you are all regular soldiers, if you want to kill devils, I, the water thief in Gaoyou Lake back then, don't have to be so bad Before Lu Ping's words were finished, he heard a piercing whistling sound in the sky, which was the cannon on the devil warship that opened fire, and the whistling cannonball pierced the air and viciously pounced on the Jiangbei National Army position with a grim smile.
Lao Zheng is experienced, as soon as he heard that something was wrong, he hurriedly swooped over and pressed Lu Ping, who was standing and talking, to the ground, at the same time, the cannonball exploded two hundred meters outside Lu Ping's body, and the powerful air wave set off a high mud wall, like a heavy rainstorm in summer, and the huge shock wave suddenly deafened Lu Ping's ears, he looked blankly at Lao Zheng who was desperately calling his name, and after a while, Lu Ping's ears slowly heard clearly.
"Battalion commander, quickly withdraw, just now, the bombing killed more than a dozen of our brothers, if we don't withdraw, we will all be finished here" Lu Ping struggled to get up, and the big crater in front of him the size of the house shocked him so much that he couldn't close his mouth: "My good girl, it's really amazing, if it falls in our trench just now, then our brothers won't all die."
Before Lu Ping could order a retreat, the cannonballs on the little devil warship whistled, this time it was not the test firing just now, but the cannons of a row on the side of the ship fired together, and exploded around the position, almost lifting Lu Ping's body.
Lu Ping shouted to his brothers at the top of his voice: "Retreat quickly, Company Commander Zheng, you take your brothers to retreat first, and I will cover you after breaking off with my brothers."
Lao Zheng didn't have time to talk to Lu Ping at this time, and when he heard Lu Ping's order to retreat, he hurriedly called the brothers of the third battalion to retreat, while Lu Ping left a platoon of troops on the position to block the little devils who had already gone ashore and were attacking the position.
At this time, the position was full of fire and smoke from the explosion of the devil's naval artillery shells, and many of the brothers of the three battalions who were retreating were killed by the explosion, and countless people were injured. 、 Lu Ping who stayed on the position was not necessarily very good, on the one hand, they had to dodge the cannonballs from the devil's naval artillery, and on the other hand, they had to be on guard at any time against the little devil infantry who had gone ashore below and were desperately rushing towards the position, Lu Ping poked out half of his head in the trench, and just wanted to use the telescope to look at the ghost infantry rushing in front of him, a bullet hit, and the steel helmet on his head was overturned, which scared Lu Ping into a cold sweat, fortunately, his head was fine, but he was scratched a little skin by the bullet just now, Blood suddenly ran down Lu Ping's cheeks and went all the way into his neck.
Suddenly, a brother in the trench shouted to Lu Ping: "Battalion commander, it's not good, the little devil has charged" Lu Ping heard this, and hurriedly poked his head out to look at the front of the position, at this time on the river beach, the little devil naval artillery had stopped shelling, and a large number of devil infantry wearing yellow-skinned army coats, net-like steel helmets, and holding three or eight big covers were rushing towards the position, and it seemed that there were two or three hundred people.
Seeing this, Lu Ping gasped, he took more than thirty brothers to break the position, only these light weapons at hand could not stop the attack of the two or three hundred little devils below, but Lao Zheng They have not safely withdrawn a distance, at this time, if I give up the position and retreat, then these little devils below will definitely swarm to catch up, and our three battalions will not be able to escape the pursuit of the little devils, and they will be wiped out by the devils.
Thinking of this, Lu Ping gritted his teeth and shouted to the brothers who stayed behind and broke off: "Brothers, although we used to be the king of bandit mountains in Gaoyou Lake, we always scolded the people, this time we are fighting hard with the little devils as a dignified national army, even if we all die here, we are not wronged, although I am a big old man, I can't say the words of Wen Crepe, but I still know the reason of fighting devils to protect the family and defend the country, I plan to stick to this position with my brothers and fight to the end with the little devils, everyone is always a good brother with me, If any of you are unwilling to hold your ground with me Luping, retreat now as soon as possible, and I will not force it. ” Lu Ping saw that the situation was severe, so he had a showdown with the thirty or so brothers who stayed behind in the trenches, and he had made up his mind to fight to the death with the little devils on the riverside position, so he gave his brothers an order to defend the position.
The brothers listened to Lu Ping's order, and all expressed their willingness to stick to their positions with the battalion commander, who were scolded by the common people as bandits and robbers in the past, but now they finally have a formal identity to fight with the little devils, where will they be bears and eggs, and today they will die here to pull a few little devils as a back, how glorious it is to die on the battlefield of killing little devils, and it is worth it Lu Ping saw that his brothers were resolutely determined to follow him to defend their positions, so he nodded with relief: "Thank you brothers for looking up to me Lu Ping, we are good brothers in the yang world, and when we get to the underworld, we will still be good brothers and enter the position immediately, listen to my orders, and fight to the death with the little devils."
Lu Ping roared, and more than 30 brothers who stayed behind immediately entered their respective positions, and the little devils who rushed over at this time were only three or four hundred meters away from the position, and one of his brothers hurriedly asked Lu Ping: "Battalion commander, the devil is near, can you fight?"
Lu Ping saw that the little devil was still too far away, and said to the brothers: "Brothers, put the little devil closer and then fight, it's too far to fight, wait for my order to fire together."
So the more than 30 brothers held their breath and stared at the little devils who rushed over quickly, holding their weapons tightly with both hands, and holding the bolt with their fingers, just waiting for Lu Ping's roar, they turned the hatred and anger in their hearts into bullets and shot at those little devils who were full of evil and did all kinds of evil.
The little devils are getting closer and closer, and Lu Ping can almost see the bearded faces of the few devils who rushed ahead, and the little devils who rushed up have hideous faces, like evil ghosts in the underworld, baring their teeth and risking their waists to come to the position step by step.
When the little devil marched to a place seventy or eighty meters away from the position, Lu Ping shouted at the top of his voice: "Brothers, give me a fight."
Before Lu Ping's words fell, the sound of the machine gun sounded happily, followed by the dull and powerful shooting sound of the Chinese rifle, and the crisp "pop" sound of the 38 big cover were intertwined, forming a beautiful battlefield symphony on this position that had just been ravaged by the devil's naval artillery.
Accompanied by the sound of gunfire on the position, a few little devils who rushed to the front were immediately shot, and their bodies rushed a few steps to the position due to the inertia of charging forward, and fell to the ground, struggling a few times on the muddy and sandy ground of the river beach, and then kicked their legs and finished.
To say that the little devils in the back reacted quickly enough, after receiving the blow, they all immediately prostrate on the ground, the grenadiers hurriedly set up mortars and small steel cannons, under the command of a devil officer with an Oriental sword, a dozen or so mortars of all sizes were overwhelmingly bombarded on their positions, killing seven or eight brothers at once, and a few poor brothers were even blown out of the trench by shells with guns, and their bodies became pieces, scattered on the edge of the position like scattered flowers of the goddess, under the illumination of the dazzling sun, that piece of blood red, I can see that Lu Ping's heart is dripping blood.
After a burst of bombardment, the little devil infantry lying on the ground got up one after another under the cover of the crooked machine guns behind them, howling and rushing towards the position, Lu Ping hurriedly shouted: "There are no brothers alive, the little devils are up, hurry up and fight me."
A sparse burst of gunfire rang out again on the position, and then the brothers who were injured by the devil's shell also struggled to get up, picked up their weapons again, and shot desperately at the little devil who rushed over.
There were bullets whistling everywhere, shells were exploding everywhere, grenades were thrown back and forth like throwing leather balls, and in the rumbling explosions, the bodies of the little devil and Lu Ping's brothers were lifted high by the air wave of the grenade explosion, and then scattered, becoming piles of lifeless corpses.
Lu Ping looked at the seven or eight brothers left around him, gritted his teeth, stomped his feet and said to the brothers: "The brothers are all good, they didn't embarrass Lao Tzu, there are more and more little devils, I think we are going to stay here, everyone check the ammunition, don't run out of bullets, leave the last one for yourself, we are the heroes of Gaoyou Lake, and now we are the dignified national army, how can we be caught and humiliated by the Japanese invaders, brothers, pull out the big knife and kill a few devils to cushion our backs, I really can't hold on, I cut myself off with the last bullet in my hand." t1706231537:
