Chapter 269 City Gate
In ancient wars, the city was defended, with sufficient food and grass, and the defenders were sufficient, and they might be able to defend for a year or two.

However, as the war pattern began to change, artillery and explosives became more and more powerful, and it was more difficult to defend the city than to attack the city. Although there was a bunker, a shell fell on the city wall, causing more casualties than the continuous bombardment of the open space outside the city. It is much bigger, not to mention that there is no artillery counterattack in Changde City, and it has been passively bombed all the time.

So withdrawing from the city now is a relief for the defenders. The city gates are killing people. If it weren't for the waterways around Changde, the Japanese tanks couldn't get through, it might be even more difficult. defense.

"Wait a minute, Wang Youcai, are you okay!"

Wang Youcai was walking with a limp, Yu Zhiqian stopped him, not because Yu Zhiqian wanted to use him, but because he really didn't know other soldiers.

"It's all right, sir!"

"Tell two people to come and help me, I'll leave some souvenirs for the little devil!" After speaking, he took out the grenades from some comrades who had died.

"Okay, Dahai, Fugui, come and help!"

"Okay, deputy company commander!"

Two soldiers with relatively minor injuries ran to Yu Zhigan's side, followed Yu Zhigan's example, and took out some grenades: "Sir, what are these grenades going to be used for?"

"Leave some presents for a devil!" After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he looked around and said, "Time is running out, it's almost enough, take the grenade and follow me to the city cave!"

After finishing speaking, he walked towards the bottom of the tower. The defenders in the city cave had already begun to retreat, and there were still many soldiers whose bodies had no time to clean up, and they still maintained the posture when they died in battle.

At least 100 soldiers were sacrificed in the cave, and the cave about four to five meters wide was filled with corpses, and there was nowhere to set foot. Yu Zhiqian carefully removed some of the soldiers' remains, and then set up some simple booby traps. When the Japanese arrived, if they were not careful, they would be directly bombed to death.

"Ok?"

Yu Zhiqian suddenly felt movement not far from him, and immediately turned his head to look over, and saw a Kuomintang officer whose chest was heaving violently, covered in blood and missing half a leg. After Yu Zhiqian saw it, he immediately walked over and found him Sure enough, he was still alive.

A lieutenant, but was seriously injured, a leg was broken, and he was shot in the chest.

"Sir!"

"Stop talking!" After Yu Zhiqian checked, he found that his condition was not optimistic, and wanted to take out gauze to bandage him, but the lieutenant grabbed Yu Zhiqian's hand: "Sir, don't waste time, I know, I know, I can't do it, but, but, sir, can you, can you bring this letter and this to my home!"

"what?"

"It's in my pocket, please, send it to my home!"

After he finished speaking, he tried to take out the things with his still moving arm. Yu Zhiqian immediately opened his left pocket, and there were some things wrapped in oilcloth. After the lieutenant saw it, he showed a gratified smile, and then looked at Yu Zhiqian. : "Sir, it contains my name and home address, please!" As if flashing back, the soldier suddenly spoke more fluently.

"Brother, you'll be fine! I'll send you to the field hospital now!" After finishing speaking, Yu Zhiqian was about to carry him on his back.

"Sir, no need. I know my situation. I can't hold on anymore. Unfortunately, I didn't see the day when the devil was driven away. Sir, give me a grenade and let me change to another devil!" Struggling to stand up.

At this time, the devil's shouts were heard from a distance, and the devil's next attack was about to come. The lieutenant looked at Yu Zhiqian and said, "Sir, give it to me quickly, if you don't give it to me, it's too late!"

"Okay!" Yu Zhiqian agreed with tears in his eyes, took out a grenade and put it in his hand, and patted his hand lightly: "Brother, don't worry, little devil, we will defeat you soon !"

"Thank you sir!"

After hearing this, the soldier smiled at Yu Zhiqian, hiding the grenade underneath like a child, waiting for the little devil to arrive.

After Yu Zhiqian hid the trip rope again a few meters behind him, he glanced at the officer, who was also looking at Yu Zhiqian, quickly took out his camera, and took a picture.

In the photos developed later, in a city cave full of dead soldiers, a lieutenant of the Kuomintang army was shot several times, half leaning on the corpse of his comrade, holding a grenade in his hand, and several Japanese soldiers beside him corpses, and the Japanese soldiers rushing towards the city can be vaguely seen in the distance.

After freezing the frame, Yu Zhiqian saluted the hero, turned his tear-filled face, and looked at Wang Youcai: "Let's go!"

"Sir, Company Commander Wang..."

"He is holding on with one breath. If he withdraws, he will not be able to hold on!" After Yu Zhiqian said slowly, he walked towards the city with firm steps. come to fight.

This happened in the anti-Japanese battlefield, Korean battlefield, and Vietnam battlefield. A veteran, who was seriously injured, could still fight, but when the battle was over, he closed his eyes forever.

Faith and will are left to them to persevere. Faith may be abstruse to say, and many people can’t understand it, or think it’s false, but in the war years, it’s these things that China can’t perish. Only withstood the Japanese attack and defeated the invaders.

"Sir, where are we going now!"

"Where's your chief of staff?"

"Already retreated!"

"..."

Yu Zhiqian looked around, - there are ruins everywhere in the city, thought for a while: "Come on, come with me, I will send you to the hospital first!"

"Sir, if I don't go, I can still fight!"

Wang Youcai didn't dare immediately, and shook his head, expressing that he had no problem.

"Your body is like this, if you don't go to the hospital, if you don't sew up the wound, when your wound bursts, even the gods will not be able to save you!"

Yu Zhiqian didn't give Wang Youcai a chance, so he took Wang Dahai and Liu Fugui and walked towards the hospital. Yu Zhiqian still had two boxes of morphine, and sending them to the hospital could save many lives.

"Sir, I'm really fine, you believe me, I'm in good health, this little blood is nothing!"

Wang Youcai wanted to struggle again, but Yu Zhiqian didn't give him this chance, and continued to walk forward without saying a word. Some bloodstains could be seen everywhere on the surrounding ground, which was left when the wounded soldiers retreated.

Yu Zhiqian looked around and pointed at a soldier lying in ambush with half of his butt exposed: "Don't stay on the roof, go find some ruins, hide in, the enemy will see you no matter how far you are here!"

"what!"

"Ah what, hurry up!"

"Yes!"
