When Zhang Tianhai and Zhou Fangjie arrived at the third camp, it was already sunset.

At this time, Wang Ziqing did not lead the troops to complete the training. In addition to some of his troops conducting queue training, the rest were more engaged in shooting training and endurance running.

All in all, the training methods are pretty much the same.

At this time, the front line is in urgent need of soldiers. It is impossible to have enough time to conduct systematic training, and we can only focus on key subjects.

As for the so-called shooting training, it actually involves soldiers holding an unloaded rifle for loading and aiming training.

Since the third battalion has more veterans, it can only be trained differently. New recruits are trained in queues. Veterans train with veterans. When wartime comes, the veterans will directly lead the recruits.

This can form combat effectiveness in the shortest possible time.

As the saying goes, a layman can see the excitement, and an expert can see the rules. Zhang Tianhai can see the rules here at a glance.

"This Wang Ziqing is quite good at leading troops. He has not closed down his troops at this time. It seems that he still has considerable perseverance." Zhang Tianhai praised without concealment.

"I think so too. It's just that the establishment of our army is too small. If it were an independent brigade, it would be able to set up a training department. Appointing him as the major director would be a good choice." Zhou Fangjie smiled. Laughing, both inside and outside the words, there was an urge to poke Zhang Tianhai and ask the chief of the General Department about the expansion.

Well, anyway, Zhang Tianhai is familiar with these officials. Besides, if he is scolded, it will be a matter of being a dead Taoist friend rather than a poor Taoist...

"I'm thinking, how long did it take for me to be promoted from a deputy company commander to the leader of the reinforcement group? If I ask, then I won't be sprayed with blood by the commander? If you want to be scolded, you can do it. , I won’t go anyway, but you kid actually digs a hole for me... Oh, has the revolutionary boat of friendship capsized like this?"

As a result, the two started to argue over each other.

While the two were still arguing, the Yixian front line was in chaos.

The southern city wall of Yixian County was originally very thick. Under the bombardment of the heavy artillery of the national army, a gap soon appeared.

Countless Northwest troops wearing iron-blue military uniforms and carrying a broadsword on their backs swarmed into the incomplete mouth.

There seemed to be a devouring terror inside. If nothing unexpected happened, based on the level of the grassroots officers of the Japanese army, they would soon organize firepower to target the gap.

Both sides are in a hurry!

The officers and soldiers of the Northwest Army must rush into the city before the firepower network of the Japanese troops is formed!

The Japanese army had to organize a firepower network before the Nationalist troops rushed into the city. They had to rely on that firepower network to prevent the Nationalist troops from entering the city!

This city wall is already the last line of defense for the Japanese army. Once the Chinese army breaks through the defense line, a very difficult street battle will be waiting for them!

To be honest, the Japanese army does not like street fighting, because that way they cannot take advantage of their superior firepower, and the caliber of their rifle bullets is relatively small, and the lethality is simply not comparable to the 7.92mm caliber rifle equipped by the Chinese army!

Yes, it is a 7.92mm caliber rifle. Even if it is made in Hanyang, it is still an 1888-style Mauser rifle. Unless there is another problem with the rifling of the gun, when the Japanese army confronts the larger-caliber rifle equipped by the Chinese army, it will obviously You will suffer a loss.

After the city wall collapsed, grassroots officers of the Japanese army immediately commanded and defended the gap in order to form an advantageous firepower network in the shortest possible time!

"Oh! Hurry up! Assemble!! Assemble!!!" A young Japanese lieutenant held up the command knife in his hand and screamed strangely. His head had already been wrapped with the command knife. A scarf for a desperate fight, with four words written on it - "Martial arts will last forever"!

Under the command of this Japanese lieutenant, the Japanese soldiers began to slowly move closer to him, and began to find shooting points based on the favorable terrain.

At this moment, the Northwest Army outside the city began to climb the gap.

"The boss has an order! Those who are the first to invade Yixian and have meritorious service in the battle will be promoted to three ranks! They will be rewarded with a reward of 500 yuan in silver! Brothers, the time has come to make contributions!!" A company commander of the Northwest Army roared, The boss he was talking about was naturally Sun Lianzhong, the commander-in-chief of the Second Army.

Originally, these northwest officers and soldiers came to the battlefield to kill the Japanese with the intention of dying. After hearing that there were such generous rewards and promotions, the morale of these officers and soldiers was greatly shocked.

"Kill!!" the light machine gunner rushing at the front roared, full of murderous intent!

Unfortunately, after he climbed to the top of the city, he was hit in the chest by a 6.5mm caliber 38-cap bullet from the Japanese army. The severe pain almost made him fall to the ground subconsciously. This was physiological and could not be suppressed at all.

Behind the machine gunner, countless Northwest officers and soldiers were passing and rushing upwards, and more and more Northwest officers and soldiers were pouring in.

Since the Japanese machine gunners have not yet arrived, these dozen or so rifles alone cannot stop the surging Nationalist troops from attacking. Even if their marksmanship is very accurate, it is inevitable!

The machine gunner who fell to the ground was helped out by his comrades because the comrades were afraid that he would be trampled to death by the brothers behind him.

A wisp of blood slowly overflowed from the corner of the machine gunner's mouth. His eyes were gradually turning black, and the song composed for the Northwest Army repeatedly came to his ears...

"The big knife was slashing at the heads of the Japanese..." It was as if the scenes from yesterday were all before our eyes.

He murmured and moved his lips slightly, trying to sing the next line: Brothers in arms across the country...

But he couldn't sing anymore. The next second, the endless darkness had swallowed him up. Perhaps, if he wanted to sing this "March of the Broadsword" again, he might have to wait for the next life.

I just don’t know, will he still remember this passion in his bones in the next life?

"Charge!! Kill!!!"

Under the cover of the firepower from behind, the northwest officers and soldiers rushing in front took the sword directly from their backs, then swung the sword and slashed at the Japanese soldiers.

The swords of the Northwest Army are famous all over the world. This time, they want to use their swords to prove to the world that the spirit of the Northwest Army is still there and they are still making the ultimate sacrifice for the war of resistance!

Second Army Headquarters.

At this time, Sun Lianzhong naturally saw his brothers rushing into the gap through the telescope, but he was not as optimistic as he imagined, because he knew that the time given to them by the Japanese reinforcements was not enough!
