Chapter 1136 You are my eyes!
It's actually dark!
This is Boss Cao's first thought when he wakes up from a coma!
Because, his eyes were completely dark.
But the fighting didn't seem to have stopped, because there was still a faint sound of explosions in his ringing ears, which should be the sound of mortar shells exploding.
In order to distinguish accurately, Boss Cao touched his ears with difficulty in the dark.
Fortunately, the ears are still intact. When his hands and feet can still move, and his hands can still touch the shell of his ears, Boss Cao feels a little more at ease. This means that he is at least whole, unlike those brothers who were sent to death with serious injuries. , either an arm or a leg is gone.
Taking out the earplugs that had been put into my ears before the explosion, the sound of the shell exploding became a little clearer.
Just, why is it so dark today? It was so dark that there was no light at all.
Boss Cao instinctively wanted to rub his eyes, but he touched a ball of flesh hanging on his face. It was greasy and seemed to still have liquid left in it.
A sharp pain.
Boss Cao was stunned!
The pain was so extreme that it woke him up from his daze. Where was Squad Leader Tu?
The anti-blast hole can withstand a direct hit from the 75MM mountain gun, but it cannot withstand the blow of the 105mm howitzer. Fortunately, the shell exploded five meters away from the top of the anti-gun hole. The violent energy will indeed be supported by sandbags, soil and logs. The top of the shell-proof hole was pried open like a can, and the two soldiers who lost their protection were picked up by the air waves and thrown into the trench.
Boss Cao, who has personally experienced these scenes, naturally does not know about it. He only knows one thing: the distance between the two is not more than 3 meters, he is still alive, and Squad Leader Tu should also be alive!
“Squad leader, squad leader, squad leader Tu, Xiao Tu, where are you?” Boss Cao yelled as his hands kept groping on the ground.
But the voice that he shouted desperately was as light as a mosquito. Boss Cao may not even know that the high temperature caused by the violent air waves also burned his vocal cords.
"Where are you? Tell me something!" Boss Cao, who had been groping in the dilapidated trench for a while, almost fell into despair and beat the ground in pain.
Blood pouring out of the eye sockets!
It's not blood and tears, it's blood, blood!
Because the lacrimal gland is gone!
At this time, it is still morning, and the autumn sun is still bright!
But for Boss Cao, who has no eyes in his eye sockets, this life is all darkness!
Otherwise, he would not have failed to see the young body buried in the dust he beat on the ground!
“Squad leader, is this the squad leader?” Soon, Boss Cao felt the person buried in the dust just by touch.
He tried his best to remove the floating soil with his hands and dug out the young sergeant whose whole body was buried in the floating soil, but no one responded to him.
"Squad leader, you are so good! Come on, come on! Come on, help me! Help me save people!" Boss Cao felt that his body was still warm, and then thought that the shells were still there The explosion meant that the position was still in their own hands, so they shouted wildly.
But, no one responded to him!
It's not that his voice was so quiet that no one heard him, but that there was no one else on the high ground except the two of them.
Even no one from the outside could see them. The entire top of the mountain was shrouded in thick smoke and dust.
Hundreds of meters away, soldiers from the Chinese and Japanese armies were rushing over.
Whoever rushes to this highland first, this nameless highland that will definitely make a mark in the Sino-Japanese War in the future, belongs to whoever.
For this highland, China and Japan have paid 500 infantry casualties, 6 fighter planes and nearly a thousand artillery shells, including more than 200 105 howitzer shells. The other side has completely revealed its trump card, Bofors Mountain Artillery and Dozens of 20mm machine guns and 12.7 heavy machine guns all showed their fangs!
Western precision artillery with a range of 9,000 meters and a 12.7mm heavy machine gun that can hit tanks and aircraft directly blinded Nagano Kameichiro's titanium dog eyes!
But obviously, the Japanese army had a greater advantage, because the Japanese army began to use mountain artillery to block the ridges on both sides, and a mountain artillery position farther away began to bombard the high ground, forming a fire network.
Perhaps, this firepower network with the Chinese mountain artillery battery also starting to counterattack is not enough to completely block the actions of the Chinese soldiers, but it is certain to delay and block it.
No one can throw their lives into the barrage in vain, no matter how anxious the Chinese commander is.
As long as it can be delayed for twenty minutes, no, maybe five minutes is enough to change the outcome of the battlefield.
Even though the Chinese side also started bombarding with small-caliber mortars from 400 meters away on the slope, the caliber of artillery used by both sides was completely different.
However, the commanders of both China and Japan may not have expected that the people who dominate this unknown highland are not the running elite soldiers of both sides, nor the determination and strength displayed by both sides.
Rather, it is the original garrison of this highland.
It's just that it's no longer one infantry squad, but two!
Unable to get help, Boss Cao used his fists as hammers to hit the young sergeant's chest. This was a first-aid method popularized by the medical company to the entire regiment's front-line troops to restore the stopped heartbeat!
“Ahem!” A rapid cough came from the mouth of the army sergeant.
“I'm alive, I'm alive, thank God!” Boss Cao cried with joy.
“Even if I don't live, I will be beaten to death by your old Cao!” the army sergeant who was coughing crazily complained about his uncle.
Actually, this is also a way to express one's joy!
At least, there are still two of them alive on the battlefield!
“Xiao Tu, why is it that it's already dark and you can't hear anyone else on the battlefield?” Boss Cao asked his doubts.
"What? God is not there." The Army sergeant raised his head, his throat was choked, but he could no longer speak.
One of Boss Cao's eye sockets is already bloody, and there is a lump of flesh covered in dust hanging under the other eye socket. What is that?
The two blood stains shed from the previous shouting in grief are still clearly hanging on the cheeks!
Then, the Army sergeant who lowered his head and was about to stand up saw one of his legs twisted strangely. The corner of his eye twitched fiercely. He reached out to touch it, only to find that there was only a little bit of skin and tendons connected from the knee down.
"Uncle, this is great. One of us is blind and the other is lame. We are completely useless." The muscles on Tu Yunsheng's face twitched, but he decided to tell the truth to his comrades.
“Blind?” Boss Cao touched his eye sockets in confusion, his fingers feeling sticky.
“You mean, the eyeball is gone?” Boss Cao muttered to himself. "This thing probably won't fit in!"
At the next moment, something happened that Tu Yunsheng didn't even expect. The brutal scene stimulated the scalp of this battle-hardened soldier.
“It is said that the skin and hair of the body are taken from the parents. You can't take them back, and you can't throw them away.” Boss Cao, whose face was already numb, pulled off the unnecessary but extremely important thing, opened his mouth, and swallowed it.
"Xiao Tu, get me some cloth and I'll wrap a pack. Don't bleed to death before you kill the Japanese." Boss Cao, who was a little numbed by the fact that he was blind, actually had the guts at this time. Almost pathologically sober.
“Uncle, are you okay?” The Army sergeant was so shocked by such a cruel scene that he even forgot about the fact that half of his legs were missing and asked subconsciously.
“You're blind and you can't die, so why can't you fight the Japanese?” Boss Cao showed the maturity of a middle-aged man at this time, trying hard to squeeze out a smile on his face to comfort his young squad leader.
"It's true that your young leg is broken. I don't know if you can still win over your mother-in-law in the future. By the way, can you still shoot?"
“Of course you can!”
“Then I'll carry you, stop when you say, leave when you say, and we'll fight the Japanese together!” Boss Cao, who had swallowed his own eyeballs, patted his chest. "I dare not say anything else. Uncle Cao, I still have the strength."
“Okay!” The army sergeant looked around with a sad face and responded in a low voice.
The trenches on the position have long been out of shape, and there are craters everywhere. No one has made a sound until now, which means that the other three have already...
Actually, he had encountered this situation before he fell into coma, and it was already a miracle that the two of them were alive now.
At this time, although the three mortars of the 7th company continued to fire on the hillside, more than 200 Japanese troops who had lost more than 70 people were still charging towards the high ground, and they were less than 100 meters away from the top of the mountain.
“Onboard!” A Japanese captain, who took off his helmet and had a white cloth wrapped around his head, waved his command knife forward and roared.
“Onboard!” the Japanese infantry shouted in harmony, charging with rifles in hand.
The highlands are close at hand! It's about to become their sweet prize. All the Japanese infantrymen were filled with happiness.
After all, they had already suffered nearly 600 casualties for this small highland. This horrific casualty rate far exceeded all battles recorded in the history of the Imperial Army.
This is because the Japanese army didn't know that there were only 34 Chinese soldiers on this highland at most, otherwise they would have been even crazier. That's a strength ratio of 40 to 1, and a battle loss ratio of 30 to 1.
"boom!"
A gunshot shattered all their dreams.
The Japanese captain looked dully at the high ground where the smoke gradually dissipated.
It wasn't that he couldn't believe that there were still Chinese people on the high ground at this time, but that a bullet flying from the thin smoke hit him in the chest.
At a distance of less than 90 meters, although there was still gunpowder smoke blocking the line of sight, it could not stop the angry bullets of a 'veteran' who had participated in countless **** battles.
The Japanese captain's dull eyes finally disappeared, and his whole body fell to the sky like a rotten piece of wood!
The Japanese soldier, who was startled by the gunfire, just instinctively raised his gun. "Click, click, click!" A crisp sound of gunfire came.
That is the unique sound of the MP28 submachine gun.
A series of crisp gunshots were like a curse, and blood spurted out on several Japanese soldiers!
The two soldiers carried a submachine gun and a Czech semi-automatic rifle as their last weapons when they hid in the shell-proof hole. The originally weak firepower was sufficient at this time because only one person could use it.
Moreover, this man also had a pair of legs that were strong enough. He kept roaring and shooting, and then moved quickly to change fighting positions amidst the Japanese fire.
Even better, the gun even seems to be able to change its magazine.
The submachine gun's 20-round magazine is empty, the semi-automatic rifle's 10-round magazine will automatically replenish its firepower, and then the submachine gun comes again!
The offensive of more than a hundred Japanese troops was completely halted.
However, compared to the end of the shouting of "board", the Japanese soldiers lying on the ground were not afraid but confused.
“How did the Chinese who fired on the high ground survive such shelling?”
That kind of crazy bombing that destroys the world, not to mention people, even steel will be melted!
This may not only be the doubts of the Japanese, but also the soldiers of the 7th Company who were rushing all the way on the back of the mountain were shocked.
"Quick, quick, quick!" The second lieutenant of the sharp knife platoon who led the team had no time to say anything else. The three words "quick" were still spreading in the air, and he had already jumped several meters away.
There are still people alive in his squad 4, and they are still fighting.
If he didn't rescue them alive, he would never forgive himself in his life.
At that moment, the Japanese artillery fire didn't seem so scary anymore.
Just through the deadly barrage, five soldiers of the 7th Company were permanently left on the running road.
However, when the soldiers of the 7th Company finally rushed to the high ground in one go and saw the soldier running wildly in the incomplete trench, everyone was stunned.
What a combination that is!
A soldier with his eyes covered with cloth, carrying a soldier with half a leg missing, running in the trench, shooting
The Japanese grenade grenades exploded in the area where they had been before, causing smoke and mud to fly, but they seemed unaware of it and kept shooting and moving.
Until the second lieutenant platoon leader shouted: "Knife platoon, kill the enemy!"
“Kill!” dozens of soldiers shouted and rushed into the trenches, and fierce gunfire rang out.
The Japanese troops who were only 40 meters away from the top of the mountain were collectively beaten to the ground.
What they faced this time was the support force composed of the last two infantry squads in Li Jijin's hands and 10 elite veterans drawn from the sharp knife platoon. They had 10 submachine guns, 8 semi-automatic rifles, 3 light machine guns and an MG34 Heavy machine gun!
With this kind of firepower, let alone more than a hundred of them, even if they had two or three times more, they would not be able to charge forward.
At the same time, seeing three red signal flares fired in the direction of Highland 209.1, Leng Feng, who was 2,000 meters away, breathed a sigh of relief and coldly ordered: "The battalion's artillery company will fully support Highland 209.1 and beat back the Japanese."
Highland 209.1 is still in the hands of the 7th Company. This is something that even Leng Feng did not expect. He had already thought about how to send the reserve team and requested the mountain artillery company and the heavy force company to carry out a covering attack on the high ground.
The Japanese have heavy artillery, and so do the Four Troops. The worst they can do is to take turns bombarding the mountain tops, and whoever hits them will die.
This is the exchange that the commander least wants to see on the battlefield, but when the battle has reached this point, the commander can no longer tolerate the slightest mercy.
Exchanging lives and consuming lives is actually the essence of war!
Three mortars joined in the bombardment of the hillside, and bombs bloomed less than sixty or seventy meters away from the top of the mountain.
Compared with the error of a howitzer fired thousands of meters away, the error of a mortar fired in a parabolic manner is much smaller, never exceeding 20 meters. It is the sharpest firearm for supporting and attacking infantry in the mountains.
Seeing that his own soldiers were completely suppressed by the fire from the top of the mountain, and then each soldier was knocked away by the Chinese artillery fire, the cold-blooded Yokoyama Sawa could only helplessly wave his hand and order a temporary retreat.
If he did not retreat, he would have to pay another 200 casualties in front of this hellish highland, which meant that the casualties in this highland attack battle commanded by him personally would increase to more than 700, a casualty rate of over 60%, basically His name can already be written into the history of the Imperial Army.
On the high ground on the top of the mountain!
"The platoon leader is here!" Hearing the familiar shout and the familiar sound of semi-automatic rifle shooting, the two soldiers' tense nerves relaxed.
Boss Cao, who had been relying on his strength to hold on, his legs weakened, and he rolled down in the trench with the army sergeant.
“Haha, Xiaotu, uncle didn't embarrass you!” Boss Cao, who was lying on the ground, gasped and laughed.
“Uncle, we in Class 4 are lucky to have you!” the Army sergeant, who was also breathing heavily, replied solemnly.
“What a pity! It's just you and me in Class 4, both of us are disabled!” Boss Cao suddenly felt sad.
But, under the cloth stained red by blood, no more tears could be shed.
“What's wrong with the disability?” Tu Yunsheng, who was lying side by side with Boss Cao in the dilapidated trench, could only try to comfort him. "Look, don't we work well together? Let me tell you, we just killed at least 7 Japs, and the bonus is half for each of us!"
"That's okay. 7 yuan is enough for your sister-in-law to arrange the life of the family for half a year. Maybe she can also eat a few meat meals. Let me tell you! The little boy in my family loves meat most. Last time When I came home, he told me to kill the Japanese so that I could buy meat for him." Speaking of his youngest son, the corner of Boss Cao's mouth twitched, and he managed to pull out a trace of warmth.
The youngest baby in the family will always be the softest corner of his father's heart.
The child can eat the fat meat that he dreams of, which is the brightest light in his father's eyes.
At that moment, it seemed that being blind was no big deal.
"Well! I promise, I will let my little nephew have a good meal of meat and fat." Tu Yunsheng hugged the uncle and comrade beside him tightly. "I also promise that we can still fight the Japanese together. From now on, I will be your eyes and you will be my legs."
However, Boss Cao, who had lost his eyesight, could not see the young sergeant squad leader who was trying to comfort him, but his face was shockingly pale.
That is the symptom after massive blood loss!
Imitating Boss Cao's example, in order not to delay the action, the army sergeant used a knife to cut off the calf with only a little muscle attached, and then wrapped the horrific wound with a military uniform.
"Xiao Tu, Lao Cao." The second lieutenant platoon leader, who was running over with his arms bent, saw exactly this scene. As soon as he called out their names, he choked up and could no longer say a complete sentence.
His squad 4, the last two soldiers, one was covered with bleeding eyes, and the other had completely lost half of his leg!
But this combination, which was just enough for one person, suppressed more than 100 Japanese soldiers for more than 8 minutes!
“Platoon leader, tell Lao Cao, can we still fight the Japanese?” The pale-faced army sergeant was already furious.
The originally strong second lieutenant burst into tears instantly!
That was a scene he would never forget in his life!
His Class 4, steel is poured into iron!
His high ground will never fall!
