night

Chapter 12

At [-]:[-], the enemy started the first round of bombing as usual. Mortars and grenades came in one after another, and black crows descended from the sky. They greeted each other and kicked off the day.

Shen Xi ordered the second platoon to spread out, not to save ammunition too much, we will fight back as many enemies come, and we can't let them see the weakness.

The bombing lasted for a full 45 minutes. During this period, a squad leader was shot, but fortunately no key parts were injured. He tore off a piece of clothing and hurriedly bandaged it before continuing to fight.

The second platoon leader came over and reported: "Company Commander Shen, if we continue to fight like this, we will definitely not have enough ammunition."

Shen Xi looked into the distance, and subconsciously wanted to take out a cigarette from his inner pocket. When he opened the cigarette case, it was empty, only then did he realize that he had smoked up the last remaining bit when he was seeing him off.Shen Xi pursed his lips and said, "Hit! How long can it last?"

After speaking, there was another rumble in the sky, and the second round of bombing began.

……

As the sun went down, fewer and fewer soldiers were fighting, and the rest were all exhausted.Everyone was wounded more or less, it was only physically. In fact, the enemy's non-stop indiscriminate bombing had put them into a mentally overloaded state. They were like a taut string. Every time the enemy fired One cannonball, and their strings are tightened by one point.

No one knows when this string will break, no one knows when this battle will end.

Shen Xi asked: "What time is it?"

"Report! A quarter past six!"

Shen Xi put down the binoculars. There was a bloodstain on his face, which was left by the bullets of the enemy heavy machine gunners that grazed his cheek.He looked up at the red sun in the sky, it was sometimes covered by clouds, sometimes it showed some brilliance, but it was still refusing to set, so the time seemed extraordinarily long, Shen Xi ordered: "Check the equipment!"

The squad leaders ran down, and after about 2 minutes, the leader of the second platoon reported: "Report to the company commander! 52 rounds of bullets and 3 rounds of grenades!"

Shen Xi asked: "Where are the shells?"

The leader of the second row showed embarrassment.

"Say!"

"Report to the company commander! The shells are gone!"

Shen Xi was stunned for a moment, then regained his composure: "Each person has four bullets, and each class has one grenade."

The second platoon leader asked, "The remaining bullets..."

"Keep one for yourself."

The second platoon leader gave a military salute: "Yes!"

Shen Xi said again: "Order to go down, we will evacuate after this round of attack!"

"Yes!"

For the battlefield, these last ten minutes are the most difficult.In particular, the enemy seems to have noticed that the firepower of these attacks has become more ferocious each time.There were many corpses scattered on the battlefield, which were left over from the enemy's tentative advance last time. The minefield Shen Xi set up at the front saved their lives.

But the next attack is hard to say.There is nothing more distressing than that vague hope that seems to be there within your reach, but when you reach for it, it floats away so lightly.

The hands of the soldiers holding the guns were sweating, hold on a little longer, hold on a little longer.Although they are not afraid of death, who wants to die if they can live.

Suddenly, the continuous explosion stopped, and without any warning, it stopped suddenly.

The entire battlefield was filled with deathly silence at first, and suddenly, dense shells roared from the enemy camp, and fell into the trenches in no time, and the short and continuous explosions were deafening.The trenches suddenly became ablaze and filled with smoke.

A mortar cannon landed beside Shen Xi with a sharp whistling sound from a height of 60 meters. Shen Xi reacted quickly and fell down quickly.At the moment of the explosion, Shen Xi's eyes went black, and then his back felt hot. He lay down on the ground for a while before recovering. He touched it with pain, his hands were warm.

Shen Xi tried his best to sit down against the cover, covering his back, and wiped his blood-stained hand on the dirt—this is a critical moment, his sudden injury should not be publicized, it is not good for morale.

He raised his hand to touch his left chest, where he put Fang Zhengqing's button, the place closest to his heart.

Seeing the scene just now, the second platoon leader hurried over: "Company Commander Shen, are you okay?"

Shen Xifeng calmly said: "You guys leave the explosives for a while, and you will leave when the mortar gun stops."

"How can this be done? Company Commander Shen, I'm not afraid of death, at least let me stay with you..."

Shen Xi emphasized his tone: "This is an order."

The sound of the gunfire hadn't stopped, maybe it was because of too much blood loss, Shen Xi was a little dizzy, he tied the explosives/explosives to his body bit by bit, then stood up while supporting the cover, looking at the direction Fang Zhengqing was leaving, At this moment, whether it is the enemy army or the battlefield, they all become a blurred background.Shen Xi thought of Fang Zhengqing's thin white neck that was exposed when he bowed his head obediently to eat, and also thought of the gentle moonlight that poured down when Fang Zhengqing kissed him.

Shen Xi took out the button, put it on his lips and kissed it lightly, as a farewell to his lover.

He looked at the distant mountains, looked at the nearby snow, and watched Fang Zhengqing appear in front of him. His face was stained with black and gray, but his eyes were still so clear and bright, reminiscent of the people who passed by before the war. The trickle of the village.

It seems that this time he is really going to be taken away by Hades, and the hallucinations are all over.Shen Xi thought to himself mockingly.

The person in front of him tugged at Shen Xi's cheek in dissatisfaction: "I'm back, why don't you welcome me?"

Shen Xi was jolted up, his mind cleared up a bit, he really felt the pain from his face, this was not a hallucination, Fang Zhengqing had really returned.He couldn't tell what feeling he felt in his heart, first he was happy, then annoyed, overwhelmed this little bit of joy, and he reprimanded Fang Zhengqing for the first time: "Why did you come back by yourself!"

Fang Zhengqing pursed his lips: "I was worried about you, so of course I came back." He added: "We have already joined up with the main force, and I rushed back after I handed over the team to them," Fang Zhengqing glanced guiltily. Glancing at Shen Xi, he explained in a low voice: "This is not considered AWOL..."

Shen Xi was so angry that he vomited blood, Fang Zhengqing quickly wiped it for him: "Why are you injured?" There was unstoppable worry in his eyes.Fang Zhengqing checked the front, and there was no other injury except for the scratches on his face. He wanted Shen Xi to turn to the back again, but Shen Xi stopped him.

Shen endured the pain and said, "It's just flesh and blood wounds. If you can bear it, let's go together."

Hearing this, Fang Zhengqing didn't bother to check, his big eyes were bent into two crescents, he nodded greatly: "En!"

Shen Xi didn't tell him that he originally thought that he would stay on that battlefield forever.

Until Fang Zhengqing appeared, he appeared in front of him brightly and vigorously like a cluster of jumping flames.

Shen Xi thought, he has to live, if he is gone, who will take care of his little master, who will protect his little flame.

The author has something to say:

The sixth platoon leader was changed to the second platoon leader, because after checking, it was found that a company usually has three platoons.

And ", mortars and grenade shells came one after another, and black crows fell from the sky." "The whole battlefield was filled with deathly silence at first, and suddenly, dense shells roared from the enemy camp, and fell into the trenches in an instant." The sound of short and continuous explosions was deafening. The trench suddenly became ablaze and filled with gunpowder smoke. A mortar gun fell beside xx from a height of 60 meters with a sharp whistling sound." These two paragraphs are taken from Liang Jian, Because I really don’t know how to describe war scenes (:з
