Siheyuan: Shazhu's Brother Shadan

These short and powerful words echoed in the air like thunder, making people's blood boil.

The county captain was deeply moved and inspired after hearing this. Tears flashed in his eyes. He nodded vigorously and said: "Well done! Let us defend the dignity of our motherland with our lives today!"

In fact, everyone already knows that they are going to die.

A whole battalion of Japanese devils!

Such a huge force was able to defeat a division of the Central Army and force it to flee in panic.

Even if we encountered the regular troops of the Eighth Route Army, it would take at least several regiments working together and fighting hard to defeat them.

Just like the thrilling Battle of Lijiaopo in the TV series "Bright Sword", the brave and fearless Independent Regiment successfully wiped out the Yamazaki Battalion.

Such a plot does sound exciting and satisfying, but in reality, the real history is not so simple.

In fact, the Eighth Route Army at that time put all its efforts into it and sent out eight regiments at once to encircle and suppress the arrogant and domineering Yamazaki Battalion.

After an extremely brutal and fierce battle, although they finally succeeded in defeating the enemy, they also paid an extremely heavy price - thousands of casualties!

Even though these enemies were not what we now call "second-generation soldiers", this battle undoubtedly fully demonstrated the powerful combat effectiveness of the Japanese army.

In fact, the Japanese devils at that time basically had integrated sea, land and air, all-round cover and support, which led to the heavy casualties of these troops.

Let’s take a look at the county brigade here. At this moment, there are only more than 30 comrades still able to stand. In addition, there are more than a dozen seriously injured comrades lying in the cave to recuperate. Seven or eight lightly injured people have come to support them.

Even the prisoner was tied to a big tree and no one cared about him. Basically all the people rushed to the position to reinforce.

Even though the damn Japanese soldiers didn't have any fire support from aircraft at the moment, with just one round of fierce artillery bombardment, I'm afraid that only a few of their thirty or so people would be left, right?

"What should we do?" This worrying question hangs over everyone's mind like a dark cloud, and it will not go away.

Unfortunately, the enemy did not give them any time to prepare, because the other party was too arrogant, acting as if they were in an empty space, with one foot already stepped into the gate of hell, and the next step would be to point the gun at their foreheads!

It happened in a flash. As soon as the Japanese army stepped into the ambush circle, the county captain launched a surprise attack like a tiger descending from the mountain.

This sudden attack caught the Japanese army off guard and put them in a terrible state, with the entire team instantly thrown into chaos.

And in this fierce battle, the warrior who had always been regarded as lazy, only caring about eating and a bit stingy, burst out with amazing fighting power.

He seemed to have become a different person, raising his hand grenades without hesitation and throwing them out one after another from a height. At this moment, most of his body had already been out of the trench, completely exposed to the enemy's gun, but he showed no fear.

If someone said that Shadan was given some hormones at this moment, he would not deny it.

At this moment, the masochistic system suddenly made a crisp ding-dong sound, indicating that he had received new information.

Ding Dong!

At the moment of life and death, activate the Heroic Spirit System.

Be possessed by Zhang Guofu, a first-class hero and special contributor to China, with a time limit of half an hour.

Looking at this huge gift, how could Shadan not know that the moment the Japanese appeared, he felt like a hero.

He was agile and had sharp shooting skills. He stood up alone and launched a counterattack against the enemy.

By throwing grenades around and firing MG42 general-purpose machine guns, they repelled the enemy's attacks time and time again.

Inspired by him, the team members' morale was boosted and they fought hard to kill the enemy.

Under the leadership of Shadan, the county brigade miraculously resisted the enemy's multiple attacks.

However, the number of enemies was too great and they gradually felt overwhelmed.

The originally aggressive enemy was suddenly ambushed and instantly became dizzy and at a loss.

When the Japs reacted and prepared to fight back, everyone realized that these Japs were far more numerous and terrifying than they had imagined, especially in terms of their war qualities.

A whole battalion of devils! Not only were they equipped with heavy weapons, they also had a staggeringly powerful firepower output.

Mortars, Type 92 infantry guns and other heavy artillery pieces rained down on our positions as densely as raindrops, as if these shells cost nothing.

Such a fierce attack is jaw-dropping!

The shells poured down like heavy rain, hitting the positions held by the county team members hard.

Every explosion brought huge shock and smoke, and the entire battlefield fell into chaos and destruction.

Even the fool who had been possessed by the heroic spirit was almost overwhelmed by the endless artillery fire.

He struggled desperately to crawl out of the ruins, his face covered with dust and fatigue, but there was still a determination gleam in his eyes.

"Bah, bah, bah! You just rely on your numbers to bully others! If you have the guts, let's have a one-on-one fight!" Shadan spat at the enemy angrily, with an unyielding light flashing in his eyes.

He looked around, only to find that his comrades were nowhere to be seen.

After that round of fierce artillery attack, the battlefield was in a mess.

Some people were blown to pieces; some were shaken so hard that they were dizzy and at a loss; and some were buried in the mud, their lives or deaths unknown.

It seemed as if at that moment, he was the only one breathing, and the entire battlefield instantly fell into deathly silence.

However, Shadan was not frightened by the tragic scene in front of him. He threw himself into the rescue operation without hesitation, quickly dug up the sand and rescued the trapped comrades one by one.

After careful examination, only a dozen lives were still alive.

The injuries of these survivors were horrific.

Fugui was covered in wounds, and his already weak body was even worse; the county captain lost an arm, and half of his body was covered in blood; Liu Erzhuang was also seriously injured, and he was lucky to be alive.

In addition, there were many other wounded soldiers of various kinds, each of whose faces was filled with pain and determination.

At this moment, their figures appear extremely tragic in the smoke of war.

Despite being under such heavy bombardment, they always gritted their teeth, fought a desperate battle with death with their indomitable willpower, and tried hard to find their own firearms and weapons, ready to continue attacking the enemy.

As the saying goes, "Strong winds reveal strong grass, and turbulent times reveal loyal ministers." Only at this critical moment of life and death can true heroism be highlighted!
