Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 888 Fortunately, it was all a dream

Eastern Front, closed.

After crossing the Qinshui River, the 27th Army first organized a defense line in Jiyuan. Later, the Jiyuan defense line was broken at all costs by two Japanese divisions attacking from the eastern front.

The 27th Army retreated together with the 9th Army and organized a defense line at Fengmen.

Fengmen, as its name suggests, is actually the gateway to the eastern part of Zhongtiao Mountain. The area is long and narrow, located on a high ground, easy to defend and difficult to attack, which greatly weakened the Japanese's firepower advantage.

The most crucial thing is that the Japanese have no planes available these days and can only use heavy artillery to bombard the positions. For the soldiers, although they still suffered heavy casualties in the face of the enemy's fierce artillery fire, at least they can still fight back bravely when there are gaps in the artillery fire.

If the enemy has planes in the sky, we really can't even stick our heads out, let alone fight.

The weather is a bit hot and humid, and it looks like it's going to rain soon.

On the battlefield, Erniu was chewing on grass roots dug from the side of the trench. The sweetness made him relax a little.

Over the past ten days, he had fought countless battles with the Japanese, from Qinhe to Fengmen. During this time, a bullet grazed his ear, but only caused a slight skin break.

Some old soldiers laughed and said that Erniu was still a boy with yang energy protecting his body. He must never look for a woman in the future. If he did, his virginity would be broken and he would not be able to dodge bullets in the future.

The next day, the old soldier who laughed at him also died.

After spitting out the chewed grass roots in his mouth, Erniu took out the tobacco pouch and filled himself with a bowl of tobacco.

After a few days, he had become a heavy smoker, smoking a pot of cigarette whenever he had the chance.

It turned out that the tobacco left by the squad leader was smoked, but soon other comrades died, and the tobacco seemed to be in endless supply.

Erniu took a deep puff, the pungent smoke swirled in his lungs, and then he exhaled, leaving his mouth full of bitterness.

Next to him, a young soldier was trembling.

This young soldier is a native of Fengmen. He used to be educated, but he stopped studying in recent years because the Japanese and the Southern Army were fighting over Zhongtiao Mountain.

His parents were doing business in the north and died at the hands of the Japanese. This time he joined the army with the intention of avenging his parents.

Erniu put down his pipe and felt in his pocket.

There was still a small piece of the dry food distributed yesterday that was not finished. He raised his hand and handed it to me, "Eat it. You won't be afraid when you're full."

The soldier hesitated for a moment, then took it and said, "I'm not afraid. I just miss my parents."

Erniu was a little absent-minded. Who doesn’t miss their parents?

The messenger ran in the trench again, "The Japs are coming! The Japs are coming! Prepare for battle!"

Erniu's expression grew serious. He had killed several Japanese soldiers in the past few days and felt very happy. He lay down with his gun in hand and instructed the young soldier beside him, "Lie down well, don't close your eyes, bullets are precious, aim carefully before shooting. Don't be afraid when you hear explosions, but if you hear a whistle-like sound, bury your head, otherwise your child will die. Do you understand?"

The soldier calmed down and laughed, "It's hard to say who's older between us!"

This conversation made Erniu feel that he had become a mature and qualified soldier.

This made him proud.

boom! boom! boom!

The Japanese artillery began to bombard, and then teams of Japanese soldiers launched an attack on the position again.

After fighting for more than ten minutes, the veterans present all looked solemn. They clearly felt that the Japanese's attack this time was very determined, even to the point of madness, and they seemed to be determined to take the position in one go.

The tanks are coming!

The company commander roared again: "Those who are not afraid of death, tie up explosive packs!"

Erniu has already forgotten how many company commanders he has replaced.

He decisively bent down and wanted to go to the company commander. The young soldier next to him wanted to follow him, but was held down by Erniu.

"What are you doing following me? Do you know how to crawl forward? Just stay here."

After saying that, Erniu was stunned for a moment, then took out his tobacco pouch and pipe and stuffed them next to the soldier.

"Here, smoke a bag when you're hungry, smoke a bag when you're sleepy, it works really well!"

Erniu was about to leave when the young soldier, with tears in his eyes, asked, "What's your name?"

Erniu laughed, "Why, you still want to collect my body and erect a tombstone for me?"

After going to the company commander and tying up explosive packs, a team of warriors resolutely crawled towards the enemy tanks.

At the moment the explosives exploded, many scenes flashed through Erniu's mind. His father went out to work as a mickey for others, and when he came back he always brought him a large piece of stove candy. He even held it in his arms when he slept, for fear that it would be stolen.

When he was a child, he was playing with other children in the village. Everyone said that Erni would be his wife. Erni was so embarrassed that she didn't hit others, but slapped him instead.

Now that she thinks about it, she couldn't bear to give that slap.

It’s almost June, and it’s time to harvest wheat!

Erniu closed his eyes and thought about the young soldier's last question.

What's my name?

boom!

That’s all Erniu’s thoughts are.

…………

Los Angeles.

Commander He's command center was extremely busy. Telegrams were sent out from here and countless supplies were transported from here.

"Commander, we can withdraw now. The defense line south of the Yellow River is almost complete. The Japanese are going crazy and are determined to take Yuanqu. It will be difficult to withdraw then."

"That's right. Although our troops suffered heavy casualties in this battle, the Japanese's plan has been thwarted. With their current casualties, even if they capture Zhongtiao Mountain, they will be unable to advance south. We can still send troops across the river to harass them. How can the Japanese have so many troops stationed there? Zhongtiao Mountain has become a chicken rib for them. It's a pity to eat it, but it's tasteless to abandon it."

Commander He nodded slightly upon hearing this.

To be honest, the outcome of this battle exceeded everyone's expectations. Some staff officers even estimated at the beginning of the war that the Japanese could break through the Yanqu defense line within three days. What was the result?

The troops on the central line have been holding on for a full half month, and until now Yuanqu is still in the hands of the Southern Army!

"Telegram orders all units on the eastern and western fronts to cross the river and retreat south in an orderly manner. After crossing the river, build defensive positions on the spot. After the eastern and western fronts have evacuated, the two central front armies will first withdraw to Yuanqu, and then withdraw south in turn."

"Yes!"

That night, Commander He returned to his bedroom and sighed.

It's finally over!

Another price paid for tens of thousands of lives.

Fortunately, the devil's plot was finally crushed!

That night, Commander He fell asleep in a rare and relaxing way.

I had a dream at night. I dreamed that the Japanese deceived everyone and the south did not get any effective intelligence, which led to the enemy breaking through Yuanqu within three days and cutting off the east and west lines.

Subsequently, the Western Front suffered a great defeat. Countless corpses floated in the Yellow River, almost blocking its flow. Several generals died on the battlefield or committed suicide in despair. Then the Japanese launched a large-scale attack along the Yellow River. The supply lines of the Eastern Front troops were cut off, the breakout failed, and tens of thousands of soldiers died on the battlefield.

There were countless casualties in this battle, but the Japanese only suffered a thousand casualties and were eyeing Henan Province covetously.

This made the general very angry, and he called this battle the greatest humiliation since the war began.

Commander He suddenly woke up, his clothes soaked with sweat.

Fortunately, it was all a dream.
