The distance was too far, and Li Qinglin couldn't see clearly whether he had hit the enemy, but the machine gun suddenly turned off and there was no shooting for the time being.

After five bullets were fired, the four of them quickly loaded five more bullets. This time, Li Qinglin did not need to give orders, and everyone fired again in the direction of the machine gun.

The charge of the Japanese army had reached thirty or forty meters ahead, and the fifth company commander shouted: "Grenade!"

The bomb dropper, who had already been ready in the trenches of the National Army, threw out m24 grenades, and dozens of grenades exploded at the front of the position almost at the same time. Although the Japanese army was scattered, the dense explosion of this grenade made the shrapnel cover a large area, and the Japanese army rushing to the front suffered heavy casualties. The explosion of the grenade also aroused a large amount of smoke and dust, and the Japanese army's attack was blocked.

The second batch of grenades of the National Army were then thrown out again. The explosion of grenades in front of the position continued, and the soldiers lying in the trenches were also firing. At this time, if the risk of continuing to charge was too high, the Japanese commander ordered the retreat again.

When the smoke from the battlefield dissipated, this round of offense and defense also stopped temporarily. This time the Japanese army did not seize the position, and the Kuomintang army still suffered heavy casualties. Taking advantage of this temporary calm, the National Army again came to the National Army's position. The stretcher team began to carry the wounded soldiers and the dead bodies. The soldiers carried ammunition boxes and kept replenishing ammunition into the trenches.

Daozhangbei also came to the crater at some point, and he also brought four soldiers holding the 38th large cover.

Li Qinglin said strangely: "Sir, you should be in the command position, right? What are you doing here?"

Daozhang pointed to the back and said, "Our battalion suffered too much casualties. Go up the peak and ordered us to guard until twelve o'clock and go down to rest. The first battalion has already come up, and the support firepower on the top of the mountain just now is the first battalion. Now the battlefield commander is the deputy battalion commander of the first battalion. Let's help them persevere until twelve o'clock, and then the position will be handed over to the first battalion."

As he said that, he introduced the four new soldiers to Li Qinglin: "These four are brothers from the First Battalion."

Four new soldiers saluted the veterans, and immediately picked up the military shovels he brought to dig up the fortifications.

This crater is very large. If you develop more on both sides, it can indeed become a line of defense. Li Qinglin couldn't help but feel respect for the commander of the first battalion.

Li Qinglin looked up at both sides and saw soldiers digging out individual bunkers. The individual bunkers are the most basic fortifications. After digging, they are connected together to form a trench.

Li Qinglin also wanted to go out and help, but Daobiao held him and said, "I've been fighting two battles this morning. Aren't you tired? They are the new force, and this trench is the foundation for their lives. Who will work hard if they don't sell their strength? I'll ask your soldiers to teach them how to fight. This is much better than doing some work."

The soldiers were working and said, "It's still the right thing that the commander said. Squad Leader Li, it's spread from behind. Your 4th Company and the first squad is the best at fighting. You should pass on more scriptures later so that we can gain more skills."

Li Qinglin was sweating violently and said, "Our class of people can fight? Who did you hear? Why don't we know?"

A soldier from the first battalion said, "We saw it on the top of the mountain just now. The Japanese machine guns were so fierce. You came here from the trench in the rain of bullets, just like juggling. Even our battalion commander praised you for not being simple. Especially when a platoon of guns was killed, the Japanese machine gun was killed. This is really amazing. The battalion commander said that the machine guns always pressed the rifle and you could kill the Japanese machine guns with rifles. The battalion commander said that you can definitely be the platoon leader when you go to our side."

The rifle killed the machine gun? Even Li Qinglin himself didn't believe it. The platoon of guns just now seemed to have just scared the heavy machine guns, but now the machine gun is still firing and firing.

Li Qinglin was about to defend himself, and Daozhangbei smiled and scolded: "Little bastard, have you run to our second battalion to recruit people? Let me tell you the battalion commander later that the first squad leader was a soldier recruited by me personally. He wanted to steal people, but there was no door."

As he said that, he took out the wrinkled cigarette from his pocket, took out two cigarettes, held one by himself, threw the other to Li Qinglin, and then lit it.

Li Qinglin had already learned a lesson from being choked, and this time he sucked in small mouthfuls.

Daozhang smiled and said, "How is it? Is it very comfortable when I am tired?"

Smoking is a very bad hobby. Many people believe that smoking can relieve emotions and eliminate fatigue. In fact, it is mainly a psychological effect.

Li Qinglin was not good at explaining these to him, so he changed the topic and said: "Sir, the Japanese tactics have changed very quickly, so we should do more preparations."

Wang Peihan, the sword-shaped face, said: "The first battalion commander has decided to add a trench. We are closest to the front line and have greater firepower support. When the Japanese charge again later, it will not be as easy as before."

This trench is only more than fifty meters away from the trench at the foot of the mountain, and the terrain is relatively high. When the Japanese charge, they can intercept and shoot with rifles, which can indeed play a great role in supporting the front line.

Li Qinglin had read some information in his previous life, saying that the Japanese were best at roundabout attacks and infiltrated at multiple points. In the early days of the War of Resistance Against Japan, the Kuomintang and Communist Army suffered a great loss, so he reminded him: "We have been in stalemate with them for a day and a half. Will the Japanese send teams behind us?"

Daozhang sneered: "We can't guarantee other troops that our 10th Division will not be able to leave the flanks. I had asked this morning when the regiment came. The main force of the entire division has been followed. Our search troops have been released for five or six miles, and some are even further away. Even if the Japanese want to attack, with the strength of our division, he wants to eat us, and he has to see how his teeth are like."

The sun was already rising, and the soldiers digging trenches on the position were sweating profusely. The temperature in the crater was very high and it was unbearable. Li Qinglin returned the telescope to the knife face and advised him: "Sir, now the first battalion has come up, you should find a place to rest."

The temperature was too high and there was really nothing to do when I stayed on the position, so the sword face still left. Before leaving, he patted Li Qinglin on the shoulder and said, "Boy, be smarter later. I want to go back alive. We are waiting to give you medals."

"There are medals?" Li Qinglin said.

"Of course, let's not talk about anything else, just because you regained the position last night, the division will definitely give you medals. In addition, you beat the Japanese to death and have bonuses." After saying that, Daozhangbei left.

There are medals and bonuses, and it seems that life is not bad for me to be in the Central Army.

The sword-striped face has left, and the battlefield is temporarily quiet.

Li Qinglin didn't go to bed late last night, and in the two morning battles, although the sun above his head was so hot, Li Qinglin, who was so tired, still leaned against the bullet crater with his gun in his arms and fell asleep.

But he hadn't slept for long, "boom", "boom"... The Japanese army's Jiuer Mountain Cannon began to shoot again, and the Japanese army's new attack began again.
