Not daring to waste time, Lao Ma directly ordered all heavy artillery to aim at the front-line defense positions and began a covering bombing.
Suddenly the explosions on the battlefield intensified, and people several miles away were shaken to the point of tinnitus.
The national army that had just rushed into the position was hit directly on the head, with broken limbs and broken arms flying everywhere.
Under this covering bombardment, there was no place to hide. A small number of people were lucky enough to find the shell-proof hole by accident, and then they saved their lives.
The top brass of the national army were dumbfounded when they saw this. They immediately thought that their gunner had made a mistake, and changed the angle with trembling hands.
But the dense explosions made them react instantly. Their own heavy artillery alone could not hit this frequency.
At this time, the top brass of the national army also realized that the commander of the Eighth Route Army opposite them was no fool.
He was able to see their tactics and responded in such a short period of time, causing their attack to lose both shells and troops.
Under the bombardment of the heavy artillery brigade, less than one-third of the national soldiers who rushed to the position survived, and most of them were seriously injured and lost their combat ability.
Seeing that the plan failed, the national army stopped shelling, and the battlefield became silent again.
"Heizi, let the brothers go back and take over the position. This time, you can really beat them up!"
Seeing that the remaining national soldiers retreated, Li Qiufan immediately ordered all units to return to the first defensive line position.
The frontal attack was ineffective, so the national army began to study the terrain here and look for other breakthroughs.
After some investigation, the national army discovered the two paths that could be bypassed, but at the same time they also discovered the soldiers of the Second Division who were waiting in full formation.
Seeing Li Qiufan's meticulous arrangements, the top brass of the National Army felt a deep sense of powerlessness. This was the first time they had felt this way because of the Eighth Route Army.
In this way, the two sides began to stalemate. The national army did not dare to attack rashly, but Li Qiufan was originally blocking, let alone taking the initiative to attack.
As time passed, the day passed quickly, and night slowly fell.
Bonfires were set up on both sides' positions for lighting and cooking.
"Heizi, after dinner, ask someone to inform him about the situation and ask him to be careful about enemy night attacks!"
Li Qiufan was holding a bowl of porridge in his left hand and a steamed bun in his right hand. He turned to Heizi who was doing the same thing and said.
Li Qiufan was not worried at all about the frontal battlefield. In the face of absolute strength, any conspiracy would be in vain, and the national army would not even think of rushing up from the front.
The only thing that worried him was the paths on both sides. If these two paths couldn't be defended, the enemy would be able to circle back and surround him.
Although Li Qiufan can lead his troops to break out, he will also be entangled by the opponent, and it will not be so easy to escape.
When the national troops from these two armies are pestering him while waiting for support, the entire column will be in danger.
"I know, brother, would you like a green onion?"
Heizi nodded towards Li Qiufan, then reached under his body and pulled out a green onion as thick as his thumb.
"Where did you get the green onions? Why didn't I see you carrying them?"
Seeing Heizi take out a green onion, Li Qiufan was a little confused. He didn't see any green onion on Heizi during the day.
"Hey, the pockets on my body can't fit it, so I stuffed it in my pants!"
Heizi scratched his head and felt shy, unzipped his pants and pointed inside.
"puff!"
Li Qiufan took the green onion and took a bite. He spat it out after hearing Heizi's words.
"You fucking stuff this thing into your crotch? Are you going to let me eat it after that?"
Li Qiufan stared at Heizi with wide eyes. If looks could kill, then Heizi might have died tens of thousands of times.
"What does this mean? Don't worry, brother!"
"My brother and I have never met this green onion, so feel free to eat it!"
Seeing Li Qiufan's appearance, Heizi explained it to him thoughtfully and asked him to eat with confidence. However, he didn't know that these words made Li Qiufan feel nauseous again.
"Ugh~"
"Heizi, just wait. When I finish vomiting, put this green onion into your brother's mouth!"
Li Qiufan held the trench with one hand while vomiting wildly, and pointed at Heizi with a scallion in the other hand. His expression was like looking at the enemy who killed his father.
"Uh, what about that? Brother, I'm going to go find Lao Cheng first, so as to avoid anything happening if I get there late!"
Hearing Li Qiufan's words, Heizi suddenly trembled, then stood up and ran directly towards the temporary headquarters of the Second Division.
Seeing Heizi running away, Li Qiufan was determined to chase him, but the turbulence in his stomach made him unable to straighten up, and he could only helplessly howl a few times.
The roar resounded throughout Wuyuanling, and the soldiers at the front of the National Army position heard it, and thought that some beast had entered the Eighth Route Army position.
Heizi stopped leaving immediately after arriving at the temporary headquarters of the Second Division. Heizi didn't tell him why when he was asked about it, which made him very puzzled.
"I said you are a deputy commander. If you don't stay with the commander, why are you here? Could it be that you got into some trouble?"
He looked at Heizi suspiciously, always feeling that he had caused something, and it was not a small matter.
"What's wrong with my deputy commander? You, Cheng, are still the chief of staff. You can't treat me as well as you can."
Heizi felt a little weak, but still replied firmly.
At this moment, a roar suddenly came from a distance, and both of them heard it clearly.
"Is this the commander's voice?"
He looked at the direction where the sound came from, then looked at Heizi and asked.
"Yes...right."
When asked about the level of hearing, Heizi stuttered a bit when he spoke. From the roar just now, he could tell how angry Li Qiufan was.
"You...what on earth did you do?"
Seeing Heizi's strange behavior, he immediately understood what was going on. It was definitely Heizi who had messed with Li Qiufan and then came to him for refuge.
And at this time, the level was a little tense. He was afraid that Li Qiufan would hurt innocent people and treat him as a gangster. After all, even if the two of them went together, they would not be Li Qiufan's opponent.
"I didn't do anything. I just treated my eldest brother to a green onion."
At this moment, Heizi still refuses to admit it. He is afraid that if he is kicked out, he will have no choice but to go back and face Li Qiufan.
"Onions? Where did you get the onions?"
When Heizi asked Li Qiufan to eat green onions, he was a little confused. He didn't understand where he got the green onions, and he didn't understand why Li Qiufan was angry because of the green onions.
"I just...brought it with me."
Kuroko scratched his head in embarrassment and replied quietly.
"We've been together since we set off, and I haven't seen you wearing onions on your body."
He frowned because he had been with Heizi since he set off. If Heizi had green onions on his body, he would definitely see it.
"Damn it, you wouldn't have put it in...!!!"
Su Su suddenly thought of something and pointed at Heizi with his eyes widened in disbelief.
