The Rise of the Youth in the War of Resistance

Chapter 128: Yongxin Defense Battle (5)

In the early morning of the fourth day, Changlin was filled with a solemn and murderous atmosphere.

Zhu Kan's troops gathered in the camp, preparing to launch a strong attack on Yongxin County.

Zhu Kan, the ambitious general, was dressed in a neat military uniform, with an exquisite pistol on his waist, and his eyes revealed a gleam of determination to win.

In the camp, soldiers were busy moving around.

Rows of machine guns were polished to a shine, and submachine guns and bolt-action rifles were neatly placed aside.

Zhu Kan stood on the high platform, looking down at the densely packed soldiers below.

He cleared his throat and shouted:

"Bros!

Today, we are going to take Yongxin County!

This will be our glorious battle!"

His voice echoed in the camp, inspiring the soldiers' fighting spirit.

The soldiers raised their heads, their eyes full of desire and determination.

Zhu Kan continued:

"The enemies in the city are just a bunch of rabble. As long as we work together, this city will surely be ours!

When the time comes, we will have delicious food and drinks, and brothers will be indispensable."

Chief of Staff Qian Youcai echoed:

"The General is right!

We have strong men and horses, and victory will surely belong to us!

Isn't it brothers?"

The soldiers collectively shouted:

"Victory, victory"

Zhu Kan saw that the purpose of his speech had been achieved, so he waved his hand and said, "Let's go!"

Following his command, the trumpets sounded and the soldiers began to line up in an orderly manner.

The vanguard troops carried machine guns and marched forward in orderly steps.

There were serious expressions on their faces, as if they had seen the dawn of victory.

The submachine gun team followed closely behind, with ammunition on their backs and determined eyes.

The bolt-action rifle team was at the end, their long rifles flashing coldly in the sunlight.

In the team, a young soldier held the submachine gun tightly in his hands, his palms full of sweat.

The veteran beside him patted his shoulder:

"Don't be afraid, kid, just follow me later and rush behind me!"

The young soldier nodded and swallowed to give himself courage.

Zhu Kan rode on a tall warhorse, looking at his troops, his heart full of confidence.

He kicked his horse's belly and ran towards Yongxin County.

The soldiers behind him shouted in unison:

"Come on!"

Dust was flying and shouts of killing were deafening.

.........

Soldiers in Zhu Kan's attacking force kept falling, but they did not retreat and continued to charge forward.

"Machine gunner, suppress the fire on the city wall!"

Zhu Kan ordered loudly.

Several machine guns were quickly set up and fired wildly at the city wall.

The earth and rocks on the city wall were blown away, and the soldiers of the peasant army had to seek shelter.

"Li Xi, take down that machine gun for me!"

Zhao Shao shouted.

Li Xi raised his gun and aimed at the enemy's machine gunner. With a "bang", the enemy's machine gunner fell down.

But soon, new soldiers arrived.

The battlefield was filled with smoke, and the sounds of shouting, gunfire and screams were intertwined.

Xiao Si hid behind the bunker, his face pale and his body shaking constantly.

"Xiao Si, cheer up!"

Zhao Shao roared.

Xiao Si gritted his teeth, leaned forward, and fired a shot at the enemy.

The enemy's charge came wave after wave, and the peasant army soldiers on the city wall fought hard to resist.

"Grenade!"

Wang Yaxin shouted.

The soldiers threw grenades at the enemy one after another. The explosions resounded through the sky and the enemy's attack was temporarily curbed.

Zhu Kan looked at the city wall that had been unable to be conquered for so long, and he was furious:

"Keep going!

Anyone who retreats will be punished by military law!"

Under the pressure of Zhu Kan, the enemy launched another charge.

On the city wall, Zhao Shao had run out of bullets. The enemy had also attacked the wall. He drew out a big knife and shouted loudly:

"Follow me and kill the enemy!"

Li Xi, Liu San and other soldiers responded and followed Zhao Shao down the city wall.

They engaged in close combat with the enemy, with swords flashing and blood splattering everywhere.

Zhao Shao brandished his broadsword, slashing left and right with great bravery.

An enemy soldier stabbed at him, but he dodged sideways and chopped the enemy to the ground with his backhand.

Li Xi was not to be outdone. He smashed the butt of his gun on an enemy's head, knocking him down.

Although Liu San was young, he was very brave. He followed Zhao Shao closely and provided him with protection.

Zhu Kan's troops gradually fell into chaos. They did not expect the peasant army's resistance to be so tenacious.

"retreat!

retreat! "

Seeing that the situation was not good, Jiang Shi gave the order to retreat.

The enemy retreated like a tide, leaving behind corpses on the battlefield.

The soldiers of the Peasant Corps were exhausted, but their eyes were still full of determination.

"Everyone, take this time to rest, the enemy will come again!"

Wang Yaxin said.

Zhao Shao looked at the blood and corpses on the ground and swore secretly in his heart: If we can defend it, we must defend Yongxin County. This is a city. If we defend it, I am afraid that my name will be recorded in the pages of history books.

After a short rest, Zhu Kan's troops regrouped.

This time, they brought more weapons and troops.

On the city wall, the soldiers of the Peasant Corps were ready for battle.

"Ready to fight!"

Wang Yaxin's voice sounded again.

A new round of fighting began. The sounds of gunfire, artillery fire, and shouts of killing intertwined once again. The battle to defend Yongxin County entered a more intense stage...

Zhu Kan rode a horse to supervise the battle in the rear. Jiang Shi's retreat forced them to return to their original position, which was originally a good situation. This required the deployment of a supervision team to supervise them.

The inspection team leader He Jue shouted loudly:

"Charge! I'll kill anyone who retreats!"

The enemy soldiers rushed forward bravely, and soldiers were constantly hit and fell by bullets from the city wall.

Zhao Shao shouted while shooting:

"Aim and shoot, don't waste bullets!"

Liu San was loading bullets nervously and in a panic.

"Don't panic, Liu San!"

Zhao Shao comforted him.

Xiao Si hid in the corner, trembling.

"Xiao Si, stand up for me!"

Li Xi roared.

Xiao Si gritted his teeth, stood up and continued fighting.
