Rebirth from the Ashes: Rebuilding the Red Soviet Area

The enemy at Beixia Mountain was repelled, and Leopard quickly led his men to join the four squads defending Beixia Mountain.

497th Regiment Temporary Command

Staff Officer Wang said regretfully: "Commander, the reinforcements from the Xishan Red Bandits have arrived, and our efforts have been in vain. Less than a platoon of our company has been left, and half of them are slightly injured."

"I didn't expect this wave of Red Bandits to be so tenacious. They've built permanent fortifications on three sides."

"At the beginning, we concealed our firepower, which caused us to suffer heavy losses in our first charge. Now our casualties have exceeded one-third. Should the regimental commander allow the brothers to withdraw and rest?"

Feng Bo slammed his fist on the table: "It seems that I have underestimated this group of red bandits. Now let the brothers withdraw, bury the pots and cook, and rest for a while."

"I think Deputy Captain Song and his men will be arriving soon. When they do, we'll attack them from both inside and outside and take them down in one fell swoop."

Beishan Command

"Platoon Leader Zhao, it seems the enemy has retreated"

Zhao Wu breathed a sigh of relief: "Old squad leader, didn't the guards say that the 497th Regiment left a battalion in Anping Town and repeatedly lost enemy troops?"

"From my perspective, the enemy is still a complete group."

The old squad leader said: "The company commander will not lie, that means the enemy is hiding their strength."

The stonemason said: "The first platoon plus our machine gun platoon, totaling less than 300 people, the enemy regiment has at least 1200 people."

"The enemy still has so much artillery fire"

"The battle ahead will be difficult."

"Oh no!"

Song Tao ran all the way: "Old squad leader, Lao Zhao, the stonemason, something terrible is happening!"

"Two more enemy battalions are coming from the north."

Zhao Wu exclaimed, "What, what did you say, Old Song?"

Song Tao took a breath and said, "I said the enemy is coming from the north. There are two battalions, less than 5 kilometers away from us."

The stonemason opened his eyes wide and said: "The enemies in front of us are already difficult enough, and they are coming from the north. We are in great danger."

Song Tao said, "We have relocated all the people to the north. What should we do?"

The old squad leader calmed down at this time: "The land here must not be lost."

"As a last resort, send in the logistics platoon and captured soldiers."

"Those prisoners have been working in the arsenal for a month, and we have done a lot of political work on them. They can be used."

"They are the last reserve force. Remember, they must not be used unless it is a critical moment."

"As for the north, I will take the new recruits there."

"Although the new recruits have been training for more than a month, it is enough time for them to go to the battlefield."

"I believe the company commander and his men will be back soon. Everyone must hold on."

Zhao Wu said worriedly: "Old squad leader, let me take the new recruits, you stay here to command"

The old squad leader shook his head: "Now is not the time to give in, just listen to me"

With that, the old squad leader turned and left

The rain is getting heavier, but it can't stop the smoke from spreading

The afternoon battle had been fierce for three hours. The Red Army refused to give up an inch of ground.

"Old squad leader, we have repelled the enemy's eighth attack."

"Our platoon of new recruits has suffered heavy casualties, and now less than half of them are able to continue fighting."

"Let's retreat. Many of them are 18 or 19 years old."

The old squad leader looked at the desolate battlefield, the fallen soldiers, and the wounded groaning in pain.

Gnashing his teeth in pain, he pointed to the hillside behind him and said in a sonorous voice, "Look there."

"We personally relocated the residents of Wan'an Town."

"They came here with their families following our Red Army"

“That’s a kind of trust.”

"We, the Red Army, are their greatest support. Even if we all die, we will never retreat a single step."

"boom"

A shell fell

The old squad leader hurriedly shouted: "Enter the air-raid shelter!"

It is called an air-raid shelter, but in fact it is a cave dug behind the trench that can accommodate two or three people. Although this small cave can avoid most of the damage caused by artillery shells.

10 minutes passed and the artillery fire stopped

"Old squad leader, the enemy is charging again"

The old squad leader ordered: "Everyone get out of the bunker and fight hard"

The enemy is everywhere in the mountains. This attack is different from the previous ones. This time the enemy has mobilized all its forces, a battalion, and is preparing to launch the final attack.

"Old squad leader, we have no more bullets."

"Old squad leader, I'm free here too."

"Old squad leader, I only have one grenade left."

......

The old squad leader listened to the news that there were no bullets coming from the trenches, and then looked at the enemy who was already in front of him.

With a sudden thought in his mind, he took out a big knife from his back and roared loudly:

"Our loved ones are behind us, we must not retreat"

"Comrades, the final moment has arrived"

"Everyone raise your swords, charge!"

After saying this, the old squad leader was the first to rush out of the trench and chopped off an enemy's neck.

The enemy's head tilted, and the sword hit the enemy's M35 helmet, splashing a spark.

Without waiting for the knife to fall, the old squad leader slashed upwards, cutting the enemy directly from the abdomen to the shoulder.

The enemy raised his head and spit out a mouthful of blood, then fell to the ground.

The old squad leader didn't even look at the enemy and ran straight to the next one.

The entire battlefield was a one-on-one or one-on-many fight. The Red Army soldiers who did not have swords used stones, sticks, and rifle butts to hit the enemy. The soldiers who had no weapons used their fists and teeth to beat and bite the enemy.

Soon, blood and rain stained the ground red, and the dim sunlight emitted a red color, like the Asura hell.

"Captain, look over there"

When Li Yan got the news from the little beggar, he knew that this was the enemy's plan to build a plank road in the open and sneak through Chencang. After taking Wan'an Town, he took a row of active soldiers, took a shortcut and ran towards the north.

Although the distance was less than 20 kilometers, it was all mountain roads, and it took Li Yan and his team more than four hours to complete the journey.

The road was steep and slippery all the way up the mountain. If it weren't for the power of hatred, everyone would have collapsed from exhaustion.

Everyone looked at the scene in front of them, gnashing their teeth.

Li Yan could no longer suppress the fire of hatred in his heart. With red eyes, he grabbed the light machine gun of the person next to him.

Shouted to everyone: "Blow the charge!"

"I'm going to kill people"

"Go ahead"

Li Yan roared while holding a machine gun and firing

Gao Xuan, Taoist priest, Fisherman, holding a light machine gun, and Li Yan were arranged in a prismatic pattern, like the arrow of a sharp sword, firing at the enemy.

Wherever the bullets of hatred go, the enemies fall

Following closely behind him, a row of more than one hundred soldiers rushed into the battlefield like a tsunami.

With the appearance of the victorious army led by Li Yan, the situation on the battlefield changed drastically.

The enemy began to panic

Seeing the murderous and powerful Red Army, some enemies' hands began to tremble and their legs began to lose control.

Some people have even begun to surrender.

But how could the Red Army, which had already started a massacre, let go of such an opportunity?

The charge was their death knell.

Deputy Captain Song was shocked when he saw this scene. He knew that the situation was over and if he stayed any longer, his life would be in danger.

He waved his hand and said: "Retreat, retreat quickly!"

Under the leadership of the enemy's deputy commander Song, the officers of the command center and a guard platoon ran directly to the north, not caring about the soldiers fighting on the battlefield.

Li Yan shouted, "Taoist fisherman, take the assault team and the fire team and capture the enemy general alive!"

"I'm going to skin him alive"

The Taoist priest, the fisherman, and the assault team quickly pursued Deputy Commander Song.

The enemies on the northern battlefield saw that their deputy regimental commander and battalion commander had fled, and they no longer wanted to fight and knelt down to surrender.
