The War of Resistance

The afternoon sun scorched the earth, and the trees and grass on the earth became listless. What's more, there was a war here, so there was a trace of gunpowder smoke and burnt smell in the air.

In the trench, a soldier was drinking water from a military jug. "Gudongdong" he raised his neck to drink, and beside him were many hungry eyes looking up at him.

It's just how big the military kettle can be, and how long have these people been hungry and thirsty? Just when the tall soldier raised his neck, he felt that he was no longer drinking water but pouring water. Is one pot enough for drinking like this? When is it your turn to get it?

"When will I be able to drink this?" A soldier gasped, and as soon as he reached out, he took off his flat Tony-style steel helmet, which was as flat as a plate, and scooped it into the bucket.

The water was filled to the brim, but there was a bullet hole in the rim of the steel helmet, so when he lifted the helmet up, the water sprayed from the hole splashed on his face Made a splash.

It's just that he was very thirsty but he didn't care so much, so he just pointed his mouth at the hole and drank.

They are all soldiers, who would care about his behavior?

The soldiers imitated the example, and used their steel helmets covered with dust, dirt and even blood to drink (kuǎi) water.

After all, there were more than 30 people, this bucket of water was not enough, and the cooks of the soldiers guarding the position brought up two buckets of water, so that all these soldiers could drink water.

Nowadays most of the cooks in the army are old soldiers.

Old age means that they don't have the physical strength and flexibility of young people, and they can't move on the battlefield.

Veterans mean that they have enough qualifications in the company to serve as the "beautiful job" of cooking soldiers. After all, cooking soldiers don't have to face the enemy's guns directly.

Yes, if you want to be a cook, you must have enough qualifications. Do you think you can be a cook just because you are too old to run? joke! There are too many dead unknown cannon fodder, and you will definitely be an old clapper who can't run!

At this time, the elderly man was looking at the soldiers in front of him who smelled of gunpowder with rather complicated eyes.

There is not always water on the battlefield. He brought some of his men back from two miles away to bring back a few buckets of water, but in the end, these people in front of him didn't recognize them even though they were also from the Northeast. People who don't know drink it, but people who don't even drink it yet!

But he had to give it to others to drink, because just now he heard that the soldiers in the row in front of him were killed by the Japanese army!

They have been guarding this position for two days. For the first time, their company commander dug a "pit" for the Japanese army on the opposite side and killed those little devils. That was also a small victory.

But the ensuing battle became brutal.

Under the continuous attack of the Japanese army, their company, which was only relying on such a simple trench, had suffered more than half of the casualties, and even the company commander had been killed.

The company commander was killed by a Japanese artillery shell. A piece of shrapnel entered the company commander's left temple and happened to come out from the right temple. At that time, brains and blood came out.

The cook and the company commander are old people in this company, and the two of them played together when the company commander was not the company commander.

In his opinion, such words as "the best destination for a soldier is the battlefield" are nonsense and nonsense! As an old man, he still hopes that the company commander can be buried in peace.

So he took the guys from his cooking class to carry down the company commander's body and dug a pit to bury it.

Now he still remembers the appearance of the company commander before he was buried.

There was a big hole in his brain, and one eye was gone, but the remaining eye was round and staring, and it was blood-red because it was soaked in his own blood. It looked like a legend. like a man-eating ghost.

At that time, he thought, let the company commander go into the ground like this, maybe he can break into the little devil's dream with his blood-red one-eyed stare, and scare the little devil to death again!

So he buried the company commander like this.

But later, they heard gunshots and explosions from the little devil's side, and then the little devil didn't fire any more, and then there was a group of soldiers, that is, the group of soldiers in front of them came from the enemy's That head rushed back!

He heard from people in his company that they almost accidentally injured the other party at that time, because their company no longer had binoculars, and even the one-eyed binoculars were lost in the Japanese shelling.

The reason why they didn't accidentally injure their own people was because they didn't have much ammunition left in their company. Gao Wenli, the second platoon leader in charge of the temporary command, asked everyone to bring the rushing people closer and fight again, only to find out that they were their own people .

And the people in my own company also said that they heard from the soldiers who rushed over that they belonged to the brigade guard company.

More than half of them suffered casualties, and once people's emotions were swayed by sadness, anger and helplessness, no one cared why the brigade guard company ran behind the Japanese devils' ass.

But when the brigade and guard company said that they had blown up the two cannons of the Japanese army, those who guarded the position looked at these soldiers differently.

As for the reason for this, of course there is. These people avenged their company commander and those brothers who died in battle. What's more, they can't do what others can do!

Although everyone is fighting devils, there is still a contribution to beating devils, isn't it?

The water was finished, but at least the group of soldiers didn't intend to withdraw immediately.

Could it be? Are they still here to help defend the position? The old man who had been watching with cold eyes thought.

It's just that he was wrong. At this time, he saw an officer with a box cannon on his body and said, "Now roll the roll and see the casualties."

It turns out that they are going to count the number of people!

The old guy couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, but then he was relieved. Everyone said that it was from the brigade guard company. No matter what mission he was performing, there was no need for him to guard the position with them here.

"Cash strings!" the officer called in a slightly hoarse voice.

"Here!" A soldier with a long, small nose and small eyes responded.

"Qiu Bo!"

"arrive!"

"Chen Hanwen!"

"arrive!"

"Old Uncle Wang!"

"arrive!"

The officer didn't come up with any roster, but just called the names casually.

So the officer immediately gave the cook a feeling that this officer is different.

With more than one hundred people in a company, it is not surprising that as a company commander, he can remember the names of his subordinates, but it is too powerful to not miss a single person without using a roster.

Since it is a guard company, it seems that this officer should be a company commander.

Thinking in his heart, the old man glanced at these soldiers crowded in the trenches, and it seemed that there were more than 30 soldiers.

It turned out that there was only one platoon left in a company, and the casualties were similar to our company, so the guy guessed.

That's right, going to the little devil's side to toss, it's not like defending the position on your own side, but there are enemies in all directions, UU reading www.uukanshu. What's more, they also blew up two cannons of the Japanese devils, so now it seems that it is lucky to have only one platoon left!

But he didn't know that the group of soldiers who rushed back from the enemy's line was only more than forty people when they went out.

"Look at the mountain!" The officer shouted at this time, but no one answered.

"Who saw the dead monkey?" the company commander asked.

"He ran ahead of me at the beginning." A soldier replied.

"I saw him at Stone Mountain." Another soldier replied.

And no one answered after that.

Everyone saw that the company commander frowned and didn't ask any more questions, but continued to count the number of people, and then, there were eight more people who did not "arrive". Those eight people were "He Xiangcai", "Gourd", "Yang Zhaocai", "Jiang Qizhu", "Zhao Xiaomin", "Wang Zhong", "Wu Zheng", "Wang Yuejiu".
