"Hiss" and "hiss" sounds continued to be heard.
The hissing sound was actually not very loud, and it sounded like the kind of fireworks that fly into the sky during holidays.
But when the hissing sounds stopped and turned into explosions, it became terrifying.
In an instant, dozens of shells exploded in front, behind, left and right of Hu Biaolian, and of course some of them hit the crowd.
"Resist where you are and don't run back!" Hu Biao shouted loudly during the interval between artillery fire.
They really couldn't run anymore. Not to mention how much damage the mortar had caused to their company, if they continued to run forward, in this flat area with the puppet troops behind them shooting at them, it was hard to say how many of them would be able to escape.
There were really a lot of puppet troops. They were surrounded by the woods, and a line of black puppet troops was pressing forward.
Everyone on Hu Biao's side had already laid down, and those who were able to fight had their weapons in their hands.
But no one fired a shot now, because they were suppressed by the firepower of the puppet army and could not raise their heads.
But at this moment, a Northeast Army soldier lying on the ground was holding a submachine gun in his hand and laughing heartily. That was Ma Erhuzi.
Ma Erhuzi is a simple-minded person.
He had long wanted to have a flower machine of his own, and now that the flower machine finally belonged to him, he was overjoyed and did not care how critical the situation was.
"I have a drum magazine here. When I run out of one, reload it with bullets. I'll use my submachine gun to shoot those bastards!" Ma Erhuzi said to Shang Zhen.
Even though Shang Zhen was a new recruit, he was shocked by Ma Erhu's heartlessness.
"Your gun can't shoot far. The other person's rifle bullets arrived before you could fire." Shang Zhen reminded Ma Erhuzi.
As the saying goes, one should speak the truth about the profession, and Shang Zhen, the new recruit, still knows how far the machine gun can reach.
The scale on the compound gun showed that it could fire at a maximum range of 600 meters, but his third brother Li Fushun said that the effective range of the gun was only within 200 meters. The gun could be used for self-defense in close combat, but for long-range shooting, one would have to use a rifle that required one to move the bolt after each shot.
After Shang Zhen said this to Ma Erhuzi, he realized, oh, I forgot to look for my third brother. Is my third brother okay?
He didn't dare to look up and just lay there, turning his head to look back.
All the men in Hu Biao's company were lying down, concentrating their attention on aiming their guns at the front. A moment later, Shang Zhen saw Li Fushun lying forty or fifty steps behind him.
Since Shang Zhen was in front, when he turned around everyone behind him saw him.
At this time, Li Fushun took his hand off the trigger and pressed it to the ground, which was undoubtedly telling the businessman to lower his head and not be hit by the bullet flying over his head.
"It's over, it's over, there's no escape this time." At this time, Hou Kanshan was muttering to himself among the soldiers in the back.
Hou Kanshan has always been a man who never stops talking. Of course, he didn't dare to say such words loudly. If Hu Biao heard it, he would get angry and might accuse him of disturbing the morale of the army, and maybe even execute him on the spot!
"Damn it, he didn't die at the hands of the Japanese devils, but died at the hands of these bastards!" Zhu Kaishan, who was lying together with Hou Kanshan, started cursing.
Zhu Kaishan’s anger was naturally justified.
The origins of the puppet troops were very complex. There were rebellious Northeastern Army, ordinary ruffians and idlers, and bandits, but they were undoubtedly traitors among the Chinese.
There was a powerful enemy outside and they were fighting against each other within the same family. Although Zhu Kaishan did not understand this, he also knew that it would be unfair if he died at the hands of the puppet army.
"Who told you that we will definitely die?" At this time, the platoon leader Wang Laomao, who was lying in front, said without turning his head.
Hou Kanshan wanted to say, "If you don't want to die, just surrender?" But he didn't say it out loud.
You can eat whatever you want, but you can’t talk nonsense!
If I dare to say this at this moment, someone will definitely die, because it will be me who will die! I will be executed by military law!
It is estimated that more than half of their company has been killed or wounded, and all of them have already fought a bloody feud with the puppet troops on the opposite side.
If you dare to talk about surrender at this time, you are really asking for death. You can't even joke about this!
"Platoon leader, do you have any good ideas?" Zhu Kaishan asked Wang Laomao!
It is said that Zhu Kaishan and Hou Kanshan are the two generals under Wang Laomao.
If Hou Kanshan's strengths are his quick wit, good eyesight and ability to flatter, then Zhu Kaishan is Wang Laomao's most loyal subordinate.
He admires Wang Laomao very much.
He would do whatever Wang Laomao told him to do. If he told him to go east, he would go east. If he told him to go west, he would go west. If he told him to chase a dog, he would never chase a chicken!
At this time, Wang Laomao said mysteriously: "Listen carefully!"
When Zhu Kaishan heard what the platoon leader said, he couldn't help but move his fingers.
He usually has a habit of scratching his head whenever he doesn't understand what Wang Laomao says.
But now that he was facing a powerful enemy, he realized that he couldn't scratch his head.
So, what did Platoon Leader Wang Laomao ask him to listen to?
The gunfire from the puppet troops on the opposite side has stopped. I believe the puppet troops also know that it will not take much effort to destroy their already crippled company.
He just moved forward cautiously with his gun in hand, pushed by the officer behind him.
Trapped beasts fight like crazy. They don't want to be dragged to see the King of Hell by a group of people who are about to die!
"Huh? There really is a sound!" In an instant, Zhu Kaishan really heard the sound.
It was a rumbling sound, like that of a train running on a railway.
At this time, not only him, but also Hu Biao and everyone else turned their heads subconsciously, and they saw an armored train rushing towards them along the railway line from their right rear!
All of a sudden, Hu Biao and his group were overjoyed. Their reinforcements had arrived, and the armored train that they had helped pull and drag last night had rushed out from its hiding place!
"I--" Zhu Kaishan looked at the train spewing black smoke, his mouth opened and he forgot to close it.
Zhu Kaishan is also a veteran, but his brain is not very smart. He always thinks that they need to lead those puppet troops to the location designated by the superiors.
But he forgot that the reinforcements they used to ambush the puppet army were an armored train that could run along the railway line.
The armored train last night was not unable to move because it had no coal to burn, but it just didn't want the puppet army to hear the roar of the train and be on guard.
The Northeast Army defending the city took advantage of the night and used both men and horses to drag the armored train out of the exit of Jinzhou Railway Station.
But now Hu Biao's company has been almost wiped out, so how could it be impossible for the armored train that received the news to suddenly start and provide them with support?
At this time, Hu Biao and his men heard the loud exclamations from the puppet troops who were not far away from them.
If one person sighed, it certainly wouldn't be very loud, but the problem was that there were too many puppet troops. Even if there were not two thousand puppet troops coming from the opposite side, there must be at least a thousand.
And then everyone heard two "boom" and "boom" gunshots, and then the "dong dong dong" sound of two heavy machine guns firing.
The armored train has opened fire on the puppet troops!
