War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 246: The Brave Flag Seizing General! (Thanks to 'Qingbi Jingwen' for another 500 reward!)

"Defense!"

"Defense!"

Xu Chaoyang stood there and didn't dare to rest. As the military chief of a battalion, no matter how emotionally upset he was, he couldn't slack off in the slightest.

"A line of defense was set up on the top of the mountain. The machine guns and Type 92 infantry guns left by the Japanese were withdrawn to a buffer area at the bottom of the mountain!"

"quick!"

"Prevent the Japanese from reorganizing their forces and attacking the Northeastern Heights again... Each squad must send one person to serve as a sentry, and the rest of the people will form a patrol team to guard the foot of the mountain!"

Why did Xu Chaoyang withdraw the Japanese machine guns and Type 92 infantry guns to the bottom of the hillside?
It's very simple. He was on guard against air raids, fearing that at daybreak, a few bombers would drop bombs down the mountain!

"The second line of defense is set up on the gentle slope of the mountain, with a distance of ten meters between them!"

"Stop dawdling!"

"Signal Corps! Signal Corps!"

Xu Chaoyang screamed until he called a young man with blood all over his face and clothes torn off by the Japanese in the battle, revealing his bellyband, to his side. Then he was stunned for a moment...

The former squad leader, Xu Chaoyang's communications soldier, was a little embarrassed. He tightened his clothes and said, "Battalion Commander, that Japanese soldier just tore my clothes apart, and I have no place to find buttons on the battlefield..."

Xu Chaoyang smiled and nodded at him: "Go, take a buttoned cotton coat from our dead soldiers. Don't worry, the brothers know that you are doing this to fight the Japanese, and they won't blame you."

The signalman lowered his head and said, "Captain, my mother said that wearing a red bellyband can ward off evil spirits and protect you from bullets on the battlefield. Can you..."

"I won't tell anyone."

How could Xu Chaoyang laugh at the soldiers who risked their lives to rush forward because of such a small matter?

He can't even maintain his children's self-confidence!

"Change your clothes and go to Xifengkou to report to Regiment Wang that our First Battalion has completed its mission, recaptured the Northeastern Heights, and is holding on to it until help arrives. Do you understand?"

"Yes!"

While the signalman stood at attention, Xu Chaoyang continued, "Also, tell Regiment Wang that we and the Eighth Division of the Japanese are old friends. They will never give up their offensive intentions just because they lost the Northeast Highlands. I estimate that there will be another fierce battle tomorrow morning. If Brigade Zhao can make it in time, please send people up to take over the defense and replenish the troops."

The signalman tried hard to remember every word Xu Chaoyang said, but at this moment he suddenly asked: "What if it's too late?"

Xu Chaoyang looked at him, reached out and patted him on the shoulder: "It will definitely be in time."

What else can I do if it’s too late?
What can Xu Chaoyang do?
Didn’t those who covered the rear of the main force and blocked the enemy for victory throughout the War of Resistance Against Japan set a good example?
But Xu Chaoyang would never say this. Even at the last moment of life and death, he would still shout "reinforcements will be here soon!"
"Yes!"

The communications soldier ran down the mountain. When Liu Gener and Qu Yong began to lead the remaining soldiers to build a defense line, Xu Chaoyang ran towards Chang Zhan who was lying on the side of the road.

"Mr. Chang, are you okay?"

He squatted beside Lao Chang, reached out to the dead body of the Japanese soldier next to Chang Zhan, and took out a box of cigarettes. The box was still stained with blood, and even one of the cigarettes he pulled out was stained with blood.

At this moment, Wang Tianhao walked over in the cold wind, shouting: "The battalion commander said that all the candy on the devils must be handed over. If anyone dares to hide it, don't blame me for being rude!"

Xu Chaoyang had no scruples at all. He lit the blood-stained cigarette with a match in his hand. After taking a puff, he spit out the tobacco and put the cigarette to Chang Zhan's mouth.

Chang Zhan shook his head and grabbed Xu Chaoyang's hand without even taking the cigarette: "Chaoyang...chatter..." He looked at the other person with longing eyes, expecting an answer.

"No wonder you can be the big brother to those guys." Xu Chaoyang slapped Chang Zhan's hand away, forced the cigarette into his mouth, and said, "Don't worry, I have sent Jia Qin and Yu Minghao to reinforce, nothing will happen."

"Man Guangzhi!"

"Man Guangzhi!" When Xu Chaoyang turned around and called out this name, he felt that he couldn't believe that he would die on the mountain...

Chang Zhan waved his hand at him and said, "Call someone else!"

"Why?" Xu Chaoyang looked at Chang Zhan in confusion.

Chang Zhan sighed: "I saw it. After the boy stabbed a Japanese soldier to death, he was pushed down the hillside by another Japanese soldier."

"impossible!"

"Then I can be blind!"

Chang Zhan finally had the strength to glare at Xu Chaoyang: "Chaoyang, I just don't understand, how did the child offend you? Why do you always bother him for no reason?"

Here, Chang Zhan was still scolding Xu Chaoyang when a cry suddenly came from the mountain stream: "Help!!!!!"

Xu Chaoyang leaned his head out, held onto the huge rock on the edge of the cliff and looked down the mountain. He saw a nearly vertical slope about ten or twenty meters below the mountain. Man Guangzhi was leaning against the slope, his whole body tense, not daring to move.

If you move a little, you might slide off the cliff!
"Rescue!"

"Help!!!"

Xu Chaoyang was the first to untie his belt and leggings. Then, several soldiers rushed over and began to remove the leggings from the corpses. After tying all the three strands of the leggings into a knot, they carried them down the mountain.

When the dozens of ropes made of leggings and trouser belts fell in front of Man Guangzhi, the boy didn't dare to stretch out his hand. After he finally mustered up the courage to stretch out his hand, he began to slide down. It was fortunate that he grabbed the rope!

Xu Chaoyang was frightened when he saw Man Guangzhi dangling along the rope in the mountain stream. After four or five people worked together to pull Man Guangzhi up, Chang Zhan looked at Man Guangzhi, who was trembling all over, with an eye that seemed to be seeing a miracle.

Xu Chaoyang sat on a rock, pointed at him and laughed, saying, "I knew you were fine, I fucking knew it!"

That smile came from the bottom of the heart, from the glory that continued from another era, and from the cruelty of being able to torture the entire Red Army like dogs even though this name was hated by the entire Red Army.

Man Guangzhi was trembling so much that he could not stand up. The time he spent on the cliff was no less than Xu Chaoyang's watching the cannon firing at him. The psychological pressure he endured was so enormous that it was beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

"Captain Chang... Captain Chang."

"I...I...I wasn't, wasn't...pushed down because I killed the devils..."

"I... pulled out the plaster... the flag... and the Japanese... got excited... he... hugged me around the waist... and jumped down..."

"But that... Japanese...hit his head on the stone wall...and died...I just slapped...there..."

These few words were simple, but all the soldiers who participated in this battle were speechless!
Capture the flag!

This young man who was bullied by Xu Chaoyang all day long let the Japanese hold his waist in order to seize the flag...

Xu Chaoyang smiled, took out his service gun, and handed it over with his hand holding the gun muzzle: "Man Guangzhi, the first and second platoon leaders of the company are gone. Would you be willing to help Lao Chang?"

Chang Zhan asked in confusion, "I was wondering why we didn't see any plaster flags on the mountaintop during our rush up. Were you the one who pulled them out?"

Man Guangzhi straightened his neck immediately, but only for a moment before he started to shiver again: "That... can't be... ta-da-da-da..." His upper and lower teeth were chattering: "Ten... ten... I pulled them all out by myself!"

How could the devil not provoke him?
"Qu Yong!"

Xu Chaoyang could no longer send Man Guangzhi to carry out the mission, so he could only turn around and call Qu Yong over: "Take a squad of soldiers down the mountain to see the battle situation below the mountain."

　Thanks to my brother 'Qingbi Jingwen' for another reward of 500. Thank you very much!
