The gunfire this time was so dense, far exceeding the gunfire when they were fighting the Japanese army in the morning, and it directly made Wang Laomao and the others feel heartbroken.
Judging from Mr. Wang's experience, it is definitely a large Japanese army coming back this time, not just a few hundred people.
"Uncle Wang, do you think it's because our side shot down three Japanese planes? The Japanese discovered that our anti-aircraft machine guns were different from other places, so they stormed here." Little Dustpan asked in a low voice.
"How is that possible? It seems like the Japs are definitely going to capture this county. It has nothing to do with where the military headquarters is." Old Man Wang replied.
At this time, Little Dustpan used a lower voice, almost a whisper, and said close to Wang Laomao's ear: "You think Commander Wu won't take the lead in the charge this time, right?"
"Probably not, but, alas, who knows? Just accept your fate!" Mr. Wang also replied in a low voice, but he only paused for a moment and then said: "It's useless for us to think about it now. Wait until Mr. Shang returns from the commander's command." We’ll know when the ministry comes out.”
Of course, the two of them couldn't talk about this matter loudly. After all, not only the two guards but also other signal soldiers were constantly running in and out of the military gate.
Ordinary soldiers like them were naturally not qualified to enter the headquarters. Only Shang Zhen entered, and that was also to protect the commander Wu Keyong.
Mr. Wang and the others stopped talking and listened carefully to the gunfire in the southwest suburbs. The gunfire sounded like rain in summer, rapid and slow, sometimes mixed with the dull sound of artillery.
But the only thing that made Mr. Wang and the others feel a little relieved was that the Japanese aircraft did not appear again. Perhaps they were frightened by the Northeast Army's anti-aircraft guns.
Many people from the 67th Army must have died this time, Old Man Wang thought to himself, but at this time he would never say this out loud.
But if he didn't say it, someone would say it.
Qin Chuan also approached Mr. Wang and spoke in a very low voice. He expressed the same worry as him: "Hey, Uncle Wang, I'm afraid the people from the 67th Army are not missing that much this time, right?"
"Shut up, no one is allowed to speak anymore, or I will punish you by disturbing the morale of the army!" Mr. Wang said in a slightly raised voice.
So Qin Chuan retreated, and the others stopped whispering.
While Mr. Wang and the others were worried, Shang Zhen came out of the military headquarters about ten minutes later.
Since they were outside the military headquarters now, it was naturally impossible for Mr. Wang and the others to surround Shang Zhen as usual, but the direct look in their eyes when they looked at Shang Zhen also showed their worry.
Shang Zhen glanced at the two guards standing at the door and then whispered: "The Japs are attacking Bridge No. 30 in the southwest of the county. The brigade guarding that bridge is still fighting, but two regiment leaders have been killed. "
After saying this, Shang Zhen no longer looked at his soldiers, but raised his voice and said: "Everyone checks the weapons and prepares to leave the city!"
At this time, Shang Zhen's expression had become serious, and the soldiers under him were frightened, and then there was a faint sound of arranging firearms among them.
And then all of them saw Army Commander Wu Keyong coming out of the military headquarters with a few officers, and this time Wu Keyong actually took a box cannon in his hand!
Of course, the military commander also has a gun.
But to be honest, senior officers like Wu Keyong generally do not use box guns. The pistols they use are usually sophisticated models like Browning.
And now Wu Keyong actually took a box cannon, so do you need to ask what happened next? Wu Keyong actually wants to take the lead in fighting back against the Japanese army again!
Wu Keyong ignored Shang Zhen and them. He held the box cannon in his hand and hurried towards the west gate of the city. At this time, Lei Liang's guard company ran out from another courtyard nearby. .
Shang Zhen waved his hand and grabbed his flower machine in front of Wu Keyong?
At the same time, Mr. Wang and the others felt a sudden surge of blood in their bodies, and they all rushed forward.
The leader of the army actually took the lead in charging forward with a gun. Shang Zhen, their commander, ran in front of Wu Keyong. So what did Mr. Wang and the others do? How could it be the commander's turn to be the first to do something like this?
At this moment, a solemn and tragic mood appeared in this team, and all Wang Laomao's previous thoughts had been replaced by this mood.
"Commander, you—" At the west gate of the city, an officer saw that Wu Keyong wanted to lead his troops out of the city again and wanted to dissuade him.
He only said three words in one sentence, and Wu Keyong pointed the box cannon in his hand at him.
What does Wu Ke mean by using this gun? Do you still need to ask? That's nothing more than death for anyone who dares to stand in my way!
Just when Wu Ke used this gesture, the officer quickly shouted: "Open the door!"
And just as the city gate opened, another group of soldiers appeared in front of Wu Keyong, and the soldiers guarding the city gate also automatically joined the queue.
Army Commander Wu Keyong continued to move forward under the protection of hundreds of officers and soldiers.
Just over ten minutes later, they were getting closer and closer to the battlefield where gunshots were heard, and they even heard bullets flying not far from them.
"Commander, don't go any further!" At this moment, an officer in the trench ahead directly blocked Wu Keyong?
"If you dare to stop me, I will kill you!" Wu Keyong scolded him directly.
People have different official positions, but the temperament and temperament of Northeastern people are really the same.
But the officer was not afraid of Wu Keyong's box cannon pointed at him. Instead, he said: "Commander, you said that the regiment commander and brigade commander will not come until the division commander is dead! Now it's me, the deputy brigade commander, who rushes forward." It’s time!”
The officer said this. After Wu Keyong died, his chief of staff also advised: "The army commander must put the overall situation first!"
Only then did Wu Keying's expression slow down, but as soon as his expression became calm, it suddenly became angry again.
Because not only Wu Keyong saw it at this time, but also all the officers and soldiers who followed Wu Keyong out of the city saw that there were hundreds of officers and soldiers from the Northeast running back desperately!
"Tell them to go back! Otherwise I will engage in military law!" Wu Ke opened his mouth and cursed.
The so-called kindness does not control soldiers.
Following Wu Keyong's order, the guard company commander Lei Liang just waved his hand, and the men in his company set up the machine guns.
And this is war supervision.
No one doubted that if the officers and soldiers in front really ran back, Wu Keyong would really give the order to shoot!
"I am the deputy brigade commander Duan Xiuwen. If you all go back to me, you will have to die on the battlefield!" At this time, the deputy brigade commander who had just stopped Wu Keyong shouted loudly.
At this time, the Northeastern officers and soldiers who were retreating naturally saw the machine guns pointed at them in the trenches.
"Deputy brigade commander! The brigade commander has been killed! These are the only two hundred people left in our brigade!" some soldiers shouted.
"The brigade commander is dead, and I, the deputy brigade commander, don't embarrass our brigade! I will lead you to charge and take back our lost positions!" The brigade deputy Duan Wenxiu shouted loudly and carried the His pistol jumped out of the trench!
