I am an artillery soldier

第448章 黄崖洞保卫战（五）

Cui Zhenfang and Wang Shihua kept throwing grenades, which caused great trouble to the devils. The two were very skillful in throwing grenades, not only throwing them far, but also throwing them accurately.

When ordinary soldiers throw grenades, they may feel obvious fatigue after throwing more than a dozen grenades, but this is not the case for Cui Zhenfang and Wang Shihua. exhausted.

"There are so many devils! They killed so many, and they kept rushing forward." Cui Zhenfang threw the grenade, and couldn't help saying.

In order to ensure her own safety, Cui Zhenfang would hide behind the bunker after throwing the grenade to avoid being hit by the devil's gunmen.At the same time, Cui Zhenfang and the two will constantly change their positions to ensure that they can keep throwing grenades.

"Lie down!"

Suddenly, Wang Shihua yelled, and Cui Zhenfang reacted quickly, lying down in the shortest time.

"boom"

The sound of the grenade exploding sounded. Judging from the sound, it should have exploded not far from the front of the position.

Cui Zhenfang threw so many grenades, so he could naturally tell the difference between the grenade and the grenade explosion sound. He could hear that this grenade came from the grenade thrown by his own side, which meant that Wang Shihua had missed.

"How could it be? Are you out of strength? Shihua, please rest for a while, and I will continue to fight." Cui Zhenfang said.

Wang Shihua shook his head, and lifted his right hand weakly. There was an obvious wound on it, which was the wound left after being hit by a bullet.From the size of the wound, it can be seen that this is a wound from a devil's light machine gun.

"Are you injured? Don't move! I'll bandage you right away!" Cui Zhenfang reacted, quickly found out the bandage on her body, and quickly bandaged Wang Shihua's hand.

The gunshot wound on Wang Shihua's hand was serious. As soon as he bandaged his hand, the blood stained the bandage red.

"Given your injury, you should be sent to the rear for treatment in time, otherwise you will easily fall into a coma or even die due to excessive blood loss." Cui Zhenfang said anxiously.

Looking at Cui Zhenfang who looked anxious, Wang Shihua couldn't see much worry on his face. He looked around at the soldiers who were constantly shooting at the devils, and knew that the battle was far from over.

With his right hand, Wang Shihua couldn't continue to throw grenades, let alone stay on the ground.Wang Shihua didn't want Cui Zhenfang to be affected by his injury. He knew that Cui Zhenfang was still needed in the defense of the position.

"It's okay, it's just some minor injuries. I'll go back to the rear first, and you continue to fight on the ground." Wang Shihua forced a smile, not wanting Cui Zhenfang to worry too much about herself.

Cui Zhenfang understood what Wang Shihua meant, and said seriously: "Shihua, you go down, with me here, you will be able to complete the task, and prevent a devil from rushing to our position!"

It was too late to say anything to Wang Shihua again, turned around and Cui Zhenfang went into the battle again, the devils were attacking frantically, during the conversation between the two, the defending soldiers on the ground were under great pressure!After receiving the grenade from the soldiers around him, Cui Zhenfang threw the grenade as fast as she could. After noticing that the devils were wary of the grenade, Cui Zhenfang changed her way of throwing the grenade.

When Cui Zhenfang was throwing grenades before, she would always throw the grenade towards the devils at her fastest speed. Throwing like this is not bad, and it can also put great pressure on the devils.But in fact, throwing the grenade like this cannot cause enough damage to the devils.The reason is simple. Many grenades will take a few seconds to explode after they hit the ground.

And in just a few seconds, the devils around the grenade will react and choose to dodge.In addition, the devil was always on guard against the grenade thrown by Cui Zhenfang, so that the devil would judge the location of the grenade and move away as soon as he saw a grenade thrown.During those few seconds, most of the devils were able to react and escape successfully.

Cui Zhenfang noticed this. In order to better kill the devils, he chose to hold the grenade in his hand for two seconds before throwing the grenade.And choosing to do this will cause the grenade to explode above the devil's head, which can cause enough damage to the devil!
This time, Cui Zhenfang wanted to see how the devils defended against the grenade he threw. Unless the devils gave up attacking, the devils would be unable to defend against the way he threw the grenade.

The soldiers staying beside Cui Zhenfang were a little flustered. After pulling out the fuse of the grenade, it was undoubtedly very dangerous to keep it in his hand for two seconds.Due to the conditions of the Eighth Route Army arsenal, there is no standard for the detonation time of the grenade, which means that once the grenade explodes within two seconds, the lives of Cui Zhenfang and the soldiers around him will be in danger.

But even so, Cui Zhenfang chose to do this. In order to kill as many devils as possible, he put his own life and death aside.The soldier who handed the grenade to Cui Zhenfang didn't say a word, nor did he choose to back down. He just stayed beside Cui Zhenfang silently, using his fastest speed to ensure that Cui Zhenfang could throw the grenade.

After staying in Cui Zhenfang's hands for two seconds, most of the grenades would explode on top of the devils when they were thrown towards the devils. Only a few grenades would explode when they hit the ground.No matter what the situation is, the devils can no longer defend against the grenade thrown by Cui Zhenfang, they can't defend against it.

The devils' kills continued to increase, but even so, more and more devils came to supplement them. In order to successfully seize the position of the Seventh Company, these devils attacked desperately like lunatics.

In this kind of battle, the soldiers of the Seventh Company have made gains. No matter how bad their marksmanship is, they will definitely be able to hit the devil in such a desperate attack.

Because the seventh company's position is condescending, it has a terrain advantage when dealing with the devil's attack, which makes the soldiers of the seventh company far less casualties than the devil.It's just that even so, the battle has progressed until now, and the soldiers of the Seventh Company have suffered more than half of the casualties. The position's ability to persist in defending has a lot to do with the support of the soldiers of the Eighth Company.

Head Ou looked at the Seventh Company's position, and he could see that there were many dead bodies of devils piled up in front of the Seventh Company's position.In order to be able to rush to the Seventh Company's position at a high place, the attacking devils directly piled up the corpses of those dead devils, hoping to enter the Seventh Company's position in this way.

"It's crazy! It's crazy! It's all crazy!" Head Ou couldn't help but said.

With the devil's offensive strength, the defensive pressure of the Seventh Company's position is very high, and such a strong defensive pressure makes Captain Ou very worried.Leader Ou knew that the mentality of the soldiers defending the position was always tense, and they dared not relax in the slightest. As long as there was any slack, the Seventh Company's position would inevitably fall directly.

Although Head Ou can see that the soldiers of the Seventh Company still have enough fighting power and have not flinched in the slightest when dealing with the devil's attack, Head Ou still makes the soldiers in the rear get ready, as long as there is any problem in the Seventh Company's position , then these fighters will go straight up!In any case, the Seventh Company's position cannot be easily breached by the devils, at least not today.

Some devils rushed to the seventh company's position through the piled up devil corpses, but were directly killed by the soldiers of the seventh company. They noticed the ladder built by the devils with the corpses. After the soldiers found a few large landmines, they lit the mines and headed towards Let go of the 'corpse ladder' built by the devils.

As several large mines were dropped by the soldiers, the devils who wanted to rush to the Seventh Company's position from the 'corpse ladder' hurriedly fled this area.It's just that because there are more devils in this area, some devils failed to escape from this area, and some devils tripped over corpses on the ground.

After realizing that they could not escape from this area, the devils showed obvious despair on their faces. They all saw several large mines thrown out by the soldiers of the Seventh Company.These devils are well aware of the lethality of these large mines.As long as these big mines explode, they will all die directly,
"Boom" "Boom" "Boom"

Several huge roars sounded, and the several large mines thrown by the soldiers of the Seventh Company were so powerful that the soldiers of the Seventh Company who stayed in the position could feel that the position they were in seemed to shake a few times.And the soldiers could see that the dead body of the devil was directly blown into the sky!
Seeing that the "corpse ladder" that had been built with great difficulty was blown up, the devils had no idea of ​​continuing to fight. They knew that even if they continued to fight, they would not be able to take down the positions defended by the Eighth Route Army.There was a collapse among the devils, they gave up the idea of ​​continuing to fight, they just wanted to be able to escape from this battlefield in time.

The devil commander noticed the state of the devil soldiers and felt a little helpless, but there was no way to change it.In the end, the devil commander could only order the attacking devils to retreat, announcing that the devils' attack on the Seventh Company's position failed this time!
In the position, the soldiers of the Seventh Company closely watched the devil's every move, and they would not let down their vigilance until they were sure that the devil had completely retreated.

Devils have always been very cunning, who knows what will happen to these devils in the next moment?The seventh company commander is cautious enough, and he is not excited about successfully repelling the devils. He has always maintained enough calmness. As the company commander, he is responsible for the soldiers of the seventh company.

"Company commander, the devils are really retreating! Damn, these devils are really hard to deal with!" A soldier said.

The seventh company commander confirmed that the devils had really evacuated, and then ordered the soldiers to relax and take the time to rest.There was still some time before dark, and the seventh company commander felt that the devil would definitely attack again.

In order to prevent the devils from shelling again, the Seventh Company Commander left a few soldiers on guard in the position, and then let the other soldiers enter the cat's ear hole in the trench to rest.Only in the cat's ear hole, you don't have to worry about being bombarded by devils. Unless you are hit by a devil's shell head-on, the cat's ear hole is enough to protect the lives of soldiers.

Cui Zhenfang stayed in the cat's ear hole, took out dry food and ate it during the rest time.When he was dry, Cui Zhenfang took out the water bottle he carried with him and took a sip. After finding that there was not much water in the water bottle, he saved a lot of water.

The cat's ear hole is not big and can only accommodate Cui Zhenfang alone, but even so, it still looks quite crowded.Staying in the cat's ear hole, Cui Zhenfang also kept an eye on the situation outside. He found that the devils had started shelling the site again.

In order to reduce the pressure on the Devils to attack the Seventh Company's position, the Devils' artillery launched another effort. This time they concentrated their artillery fire in one area, trying to successfully open a hole in this area.

In the sound of the devil's shelling, there will be a few shells popping out of the devil from time to time, which is Wang Chao and others counterattacking the devil.Perhaps such a counterattack seems a little weak, but it can show the determination of the secret service team to resist to the end, and it can also take away the lives of some devils.

The knowledge learned in the Artillery School has benefited Wang Chao and others a lot. This knowledge has helped Wang Chao and others to survive the repeated attacks of the Devil Artillery. The secret to living to this day.

But even so, among Wang Chao and the others, casualties were inevitable, for which Wang Chao and the others had long been prepared.

Cui Zhenfang listened to the outside world and kept moving her arms, hoping that her arms could recover as soon as possible.During the battle, Cui Zhenfang didn't have time to count how many devils died from the grenades he threw, but there were still dozens of devils.

The soldiers of the Seventh Company didn't have much time to rest, and the devils launched an attack again. This time, the devils' attack was still quite violent.In order to be able to successfully win the Seventh Company's defensive position, the devil also spent a lot of money.

After being notified by the soldiers outside, Cui Zhenfang and other soldiers came out of the cat's ear hole, poked their heads out from the position, and they could see the devils rushing towards the position.

Seeing the devils charging forward, Cui Zhenfang's eyes were full of murderous intent, "Give me the horsetail bullet, I want to kill more devils, and avenge our sacrificed comrades!"

The soldier behind him handed the horsetail bomb to Cui Zhenfang. He knew that he was not as good at throwing the grenade as Cui Zhenfang. Only by delivering the grenade to Cui Zhenfang could Cui Zhenfang kill more devils!
Horsetail bomb, also known as horsetail bomb, horsetail grenade, horsetail grenade.

With a trigger fuze, it is tied with a rope braid made of hemp, brown or leather strips nearly half a meter long, so it is called a hemp tail bomb.The method of use is similar to that of a sling, hold the end of the braid with your hand, swing it in a circle and then throw it out to attack enemies far away!
When attacking at close range, it is to throw the projectile directly in the hand. When the projectile is flying in the air, the braid is dragged behind to ensure that the front end of the projectile touches the ground to trigger the fuze to explode!

Cui Zhenfang is also a good player with ponytail bullets. As he held the braid, he swung the ponytail bullets in a circle, and the horsetail bullets flew towards the devil 50 meters away.In terms of attack distance, horsetail bombs are undoubtedly much stronger than ordinary grenades.

Facing the flying horsetail bombs, the devils could not dodge, and they did not expect that the Eighth Route Army could throw the grenade so far.The horsetail bomb exploded among the devils and successfully took away the lives of several devils.

"Good job! As expected of our Seventh Company's bullet-throwing expert!" The Seventh Company Commander said with satisfaction when he saw the ponytail bullet thrown among the devils by Cui Zhenfang.

After throwing the horsetail bomb, Cui Zhenfang squatted in the trench and hid himself. When the devil approached, he immediately picked up the grenade placed in front of him by the soldier, started working with both hands, and threw the grenade towards the devil like a storm. , Howling and howling the devils.

After Cui Zhenfang threw dozens of grenades, the devils attacking in this direction subconsciously avoided Cui Zhenfang's position. They didn't want to feel how powerful the grenades made by the Eighth Route Army were.

The battle continued, the devils' kills continued to increase, and the soldiers of the Seventh Company inevitably suffered casualties, but the position was always in the hands of the soldiers of the Seventh Company, and no devil could rush to the position.

Both sides were red-eyed.The casualties among the devils made the attacking devils even crazier.The soldiers of the Seventh Company who stayed in the defensive position also wanted to avenge those sacrificed comrades. They gritted their teeth and stood firm. Unless all the soldiers of the Seventh Company sacrificed, the devils would not be able to rush to the position.

The seventh company commander was injured in many places, but he did not withdraw from the position. He endured the pain and kept pulling the trigger to kill those attacking devils!
In the evening, the intensity of the devil's attack dropped, and the casualties in the attack were too much for the devil's commander to bear.The order to retreat made the attacking devils heave a sigh of relief, and they retreated one after another, not wanting to stay on this cruel battlefield.

When the devils withdrew, they did not forget to bring the plaster flag filled with the blood of the devils, and blood was still dripping on it.

Seeing that the devils were about to evacuate, Cui Zhenfang asked for a ponytail bullet from the soldiers around him again, skillfully swung it round, and threw it at the retreating devils.In order to seize the time to kill the devils, Cui Zhenfang did not hide in the trenches. He kept receiving the horsetail bullets handed over by the soldiers around him and threw them at the devils.

The horsetail bullets continued to explode in the devil, causing the devil's retreat to stop suddenly. A devil's machine gun fired, and the bullets shot towards Cui Zhenfang's position.Cui Zhenfang couldn't dodge in time, and was directly hit in the chest by the Devil's machine gun. His hands became weak, and he couldn't catch the horsetail bullets from the soldiers around him, and he couldn't continue to throw grenades.

"Zhenfang!"

Cui Zhenfang fell to the ground, and the trumpet he was carrying was stained blood red at some point.

　ps: Cui Zhenfang (1922-1941), a native of Hongdong County, Shanxi, joined the army in the winter of 1937 when he was only 14 years old.
