Including the Dragon Boat Festival, there are 88 people left in the security team.
Thirteen of them are veterans. They have been fighting with warlords since they were teenagers. Some of them are now nearly fifty.
Decades of training have made these people cunning and slippery.
They huddled back during the battle and let the new recruits go up and die.
So they rarely mingle with new recruits. Just a dozen old guys teasing each other together.
In their eyes, the Dragon Boat Festival is also a new recruit. Bullying him before was just for fun.
But things are different now. Dragon Boat Festival's fighting power has made more than a dozen old guys surrender. In addition, Lao Hulu was familiar with them, and more than a dozen people followed the Dragon Boat Festival.
As for the new recruits, they all acted based on the faces of the dozen veterans.
Duanwu thought he should make use of these dozen veterans. And especially a veteran named Lao Kan.
This veteran Youzi's marksmanship is very good. Although he is nearly fifty years old, he can hit wherever he points within two hundred meters. And he's also a blaster, gunner, and grenadier.
It's just that he can't be reused under Liu Mazi, and now he is just a squad leader.
Duanwu directly promoted him to the position of commander of the first battalion. The old boy was almost overjoyed.
Although he also knew that the military rank Duanwu Feng could not count, he felt comfortable in his heart.
Duanwu appointed himself a group leader in order to have the right to speak in Sihang Warehouse. If we can join forces with Xie Jinyuan and stay in the Sixing Warehouse, we will definitely be able to show the prestige of the Chinese soldiers.
Duanwu once analyzed the battle of Sihang Warehouse.
The strategic significance of this battle is not great, and there are many elements of showmanship.
But this battle was the last dignity of Chinese soldiers.
Since September 18th, it has been defeated many times, and each time it ended in defeat. Even when Xie Jinyuan's first battalion was ordered to garrison the Sixing Warehouse, Zaomaicheng was sung on the stage across the river to mock the Central Army's ineffective combat.
The people have lost confidence in their own army, and the morale of the Chinese army has been low.
And it was under this circumstance that Xie Jinyuan fought a desperate battle with the Japanese invaders with the determination to die, just to awaken the fighting spirit of the Chinese army and the 40 million compatriots.
Therefore, the battle at Sihang Warehouse is also crucial in Duanwu's eyes.
This battle has nothing to do with showmanship or military significance, but rather a fight for the dignity of Chinese soldiers.
Of course, those veterans of the security group who were following Duanwu, Youzi, naturally didn't understand. They also dream of taking advantage of the opportunity to fish for straw.
However, when they saw the scene not far away, they all fell silent.
A small group of Japanese soldiers were practicing, using prisoners of war and civilians to practice bayonets.
The bayonet penetrated the person's body, causing severe pain and making people scream.
Duanwu and others heard the tragic scream from more than 200 meters apart.
At this time, more than a hundred prisoners of war and civilians were dead, and there were still more than thirty old people, women, and children trembling.
They huddled together and screamed every time someone was killed.
Children were crying and women were begging for mercy, but it still didn't help.
The crazy little devils had no humanity. They dragged an old man out and prepared to tie him to a blood-stained pillar to prepare for the next wave of assassination training.
"You little devil, I'm like an immortal like you. Do you think you have the guts to come at me?"
On the other side, a man with a crew cut, about 1.65 meters tall, wearing straw sandals and a light yellow military uniform, was yelling curses.
Judging from his accent in Duanwu, this man and several others wearing the same military uniform should be from the Sichuan Army.
The 26th Division of the Sichuan Army also fought fiercely on the Songhu battlefield. It defended Dachang Town for seven days and seven nights, with more than 10,000 people in the division. In the end, only more than 600 people died and withdrew from the battlefield.
Such heroes, Dragon Boat Festival must rescue them, as well as those innocent people.
But at this time, others retreated.
Because there are too many imps, there are more than forty people, about a small team.
On the contrary, there were only eighty-eight of them. There is a huge difference in military strength. Although many people also want to save others, they are still somewhat resistant to sacrificing their own lives for the lives of others.
Lao Hulu smacked his lips and persuaded: "Dragon Boat Festival, it's not that we don't want to save people. The little Japs are so powerful. With so many Japs, no single battalion can defeat them. Let's wait for the Japs to leave and collect a corpse for everyone." Even if it’s worthy of them.”
People around him quickly echoed: "Yes, yes, Brother Hulu is right. Let's collect their bodies."
"If someone is behind the enemy, do you dare to shoot?"
At this moment, Duanwu asked back.
He did not rebuke anyone, but instead made an analogy: Do you dare to shoot the devil behind his back?
Dozens of people looked at each other and nodded frequently. A few veterans even had ruthless expressions on their faces.
If they say they don't hate the Japanese, they are lying to themselves. They are afraid of devils.
Because all the rumors tell them the fact that although the Little Japs are not tall, they are very powerful in combat. A regiment of the regular army often cannot defeat a squadron of the Little Japs.
This deep-rooted thought makes them timid. Therefore, don't even think about the frontal and Japanese hard steel.
But shooting a gun behind a kid's back is another matter. As the saying goes, it is easy to hide from an open gun but hard to prevent a hidden arrow. According to veteran Youzi, this is no different from hunting a rabbit.
The others all believed in the leadership of these dozen veterans, so they all agreed to fight this battle.
It's just that the little devil is not a fool, why would he show his back and beat them?
Duanwu said: You don’t need to worry about this. Then he whispered for a while with Lao Kan, Lao Hulu, and a few veterans Youzi.
Veteran Youzi was stunned for a moment, then gave everyone a thumbs up and split up.
Duanwu walked over alone, carrying a Type 38 rifle.
The little devil was looking at the tied living targets in front of him with a grin.
The Sichuan soldier who cursed the Japanese was also tied to a pillar.
The little devil hit the Sichuan Army in the stomach with a wooden stick while mocking the Sichuan Army's height.
But in fact, the Sichuan army who was tied to the pillar was half a head taller than them.
"preparation!"
One of the little devil's sergeants ordered loudly.
A dozen Japanese soldiers held up their knives with red eyes, ready to thrust their bayonets into the Chinese man's belly at the next moment.
However, at this moment, a gunshot rang out, and the sergeant holding his sword high had his head penetrated by a bullet from the side.
The dead body slowly fell down, and all the little devils' eyes widened, dumbfounded on the spot. They looked towards the direction where the gunfire came from and roared angrily.
"snort!"
Duanwu snorted coldly and pulled the trigger again. Two hundred meters away, another Japanese machine gunner just turned his gun and his head was blown off by Duanwu.
Although the bolt-action rifle is still a bit awkward to use, the shooting experience of Dragon Boat Festival is still there.
As a member of Old A, within four hundred meters, even without the help of optical equipment, he can still hit the mark with perfect accuracy! ...
