Chapter 232 The Battle of the Gravel River (8)
The Long March team had only guns, but there were fewer cold weapons and chaos: most of them were bayonets, with only five people carrying big swords, and three didn't even have bayonets. Infantry was at a disadvantage when dealing with cavalry, but in this kind of hand-to-hand combat, it would be strange if they were spliced with their current equipment and not suffering a great loss.
"Ka! Da! Da"
Zhang Qingshan was so anxious that he even forgot to dodge. He held a light machine gun and rushed down while shooting at the horse bandits and cavalry riding on horses. To be honest, his move was really unintentional to plant willows and would really give the enemy a huge threat: if he hadn't had the light machine gun specifically to deal with the horse bandits and cavalry riding on horses, thus forcing the enemy to be very unaccustomed to the storm of Zhang Qingshan while chopping the Red Army soldiers. Some horse bandits and cavalry would have just jumped off their horses and fought with the Red Army, but they didn't want to be swept by Zhang Qingshan's machine gun. I'm afraid that the first time he met the Long March team would have to pay half the price, and how could there be only five or six casualties?
Sudden!
Zhang Qingshan instinctively felt danger. Out of long-term verification and trust in his own danger sensing, he was shooting without thinking and lying down to the left with a light machine gun.
"Swoosh!Swoosh!"
The sound of two bullets flying by almost rubbing his scalp. At this moment, Zhang Qingshan felt a numbness on his scalp and his heart was cold. But once he avoided it, a fire of anger suddenly arose in his heart, burning wildly.
Look at it!
The first eye was like a national face, a big bearded man, riding on a horse, and looking at the tall man coldly.
The two of them had their eyes like swords and they collided directly, but they were not slow.
The bearded man raised his gun and shot Zhang Qingshan three times. Zhang Qingshan rolled on the spot and hid behind a small bulge of pride. Although he didn't let Zhang Qingshan go, he was indifferent to Zhou Baoyu who was lying two or three meters beside Zhang Qingshan. Even Zhou Baoyu was indifferent to his shooting under his command. Just like a knight fight, the leader of both sides met, and the enemy in his eyes was the only enemy. He thought that killing the other party first was the right way. As for other things, they could ignore them like an ant in their eyes.
Zhang Qingshan refused to fight back at will, for fear of hurting his comrade who was fighting with the enemy, but it was not a big deal to be chased by the other party.
After waiting for three or four seconds, Zhang Qingshan gritted his teeth, rolled out from the right side of the little earthbow, half-kneeled on the ground, and fired at the machine gun that was stopped by the bearded man.
The bearded man also had a lot of experience in fighting. When he saw Zhang Qingshan rolling out, he half-kneeled on the ground. He gave up shooting. His upper body rushed forward, hugged the horse's neck, and then leaned to the left, so he hid directly under the horse.
"Baoyu, come and shoot the machine gun. I'll kill that bastard and pay attention to the back. Don't let the enemies on the other side of the river come and attack."
Zhang Qingshan was very angry. He put the light machine gun in his hand, pulled out the two box cannons around his waist while giving Zhou Baoyu instructions, rolled forward, stretched his hands forward suddenly, and shot at the person beside the bearded man while bent and rushed over.
"Okay! Brother, be careful." Zhou Baoyu agreed, but had to hold his head and climb back. The bearded man could ignore him because he looked down on Zhou Baoyu. However, the people around the bearded man thought that killing Zhou Baoyu, the helper of the enemy general, was the best choice. Therefore, he shot Zhou Baoyu one after another. Fortunately, Zhang Qingshan's actions were quick, and they were panicked when they attacked them, and they naturally didn't have time to deal with Zhou Baoyu.
Zhou Baoyu is also interesting: he inserted the box cannon on his waist, climbed over with his hands and feet, set up a light machine gun, and did not shoot anything else, and greeted those who wanted to shoot Zhang Qingshan. But this happened. Because the bearded man was the leader of the horse bandits, he dismounted, and a few confidants around him followed him to protect him. But the bearded man had a fight with Zhang Qingshan. Seeing that the bearded man was only concerned about dealing with Zhang Qingshan, they naturally had to help deal with Zhang Qingshan. Therefore, Zhou Baoyu specifically dealt with these people, and immediately made other horse bandits lose command. In time, no one rode on the horse as a living target, and the two sides fought in a group.
There will be no fairness in the battlefield fighting, only in the middle will this kind of situation of soldiers vs. generals vs. generals. It is just because everyone wants to make a name for themselves. Killing the highest enemy general is the best shortcut to achieve your dream.
Between breathing, Zhang Qingshan had already rushed to the field of fighting, inserted the box cannon on his right hand to his waist, and pulled out the big knife on his back. In this way, he held the box cannon in his left hand and the big knife in his right hand. If the enemy was far away, he would use the box cannon to deal with it. As soon as it was close, the bandits were fighting with the Red Army soldiers. Many of them were rolling around and desperately, making Zhang Qingshan pick up a lot of cheapness: most of them gave him a knife from the back of the bandits. Regardless of the suspicion of sneak attacks, as long as they were not in the Red Army uniform, there was no politeness to say.
Climb up and look far away! Standing at a high place, he can easily find the bearded man, but once he enters this chaotic battlefield, it is impossible to find the other person in a short time. Therefore, Zhang Qingshan could only rely on the general direction he remembered before and kill the enemy on the side.
However, before he could find the bearded man, he suddenly realized that the enemies on the battlefield were increasingly observing, and the number of people on his side was getting smaller and smaller. He immediately understood that the enemy had the advantage of the number of people. He also knew that if he continued to fight like this, he might be wiped out.
Some were stabbed against the enemy and fell down; some Red Army soldiers were surrounded by several horse bandits, and they rushed towards the nearest horse bandits after being stabbed several times, and they had to bite the enemy's mouth before dying; and the most tragic ones directly pulled the grenade, held it or pounced on the enemy, and died together
Seeing his comrades who were laughing and laughing before falling down one by one, Zhang Qingshan was anxious, angry and sad, but his personal ability seemed very small at this time. What should we do to reverse this unfavorable situation?
"Ka! Da! Da!"
At this moment, I don’t know if I have a clear understanding of the machine gun, but suddenly I heard the sound of a machine gun suddenly turned into three stops. Zhang Qingshan looked back subconsciously, but saw that Zhou Baoyu had killed the enemy who was touching from the right. He was turning his gun at the two enemies who were touching from the left. It was guessing that the enemy saw Zhou Baoyu’s light machine gun at the highest point pose too much threat to the horse bandits. Three of them touched it from both sides, wanting to seize this place, not to mention that they had an absolute advantage at this time, just saying that they had successfully seized the commanding heights, and if that light machine gun was added, then there was no need to shoot down below.
Seeing Zhang Qingshan blamed himself for his mistakes, and at the same time, he also had a new recognition of Zhou Baoyu's calmness and calmness. After all, he was a soldier in the assault company. This courage is worthy of recognition.
"Bang! Bang!"
"Ka! Da! Da"
Seeing that Zhou Baoyu had killed the companion on the left, the two enemies quickly turned the gun around and suddenly became anxious and shot Zhou Baoyu indiscriminately. Then, the two of them were not even feeling like pulling the bolts. They immediately separated and rolled and crawled downwards.
It's true that one of them was easy to hit because he didn't fall down, so Zhou Baoyu was shot three times directly. The other guy was lucky. After running for two or three meters, he staggered forward and then rolled down. After Zhou Baoyu finished hitting the shuttle, he didn't hit him. Zhou Baoyu cursed something angrily while changing the magazine. When he changed the magazine, hey! This guy has already run into the battlefield and can't tell which one is him.
When Zhang Qingshan saw this situation, his mind suddenly appeared and immediately shouted: "Comrades, retreat to Zhou Baoyu, hurry! Go and retreat to Zhou Baoyu while fighting."
As he said that, he killed five or six meters away from the gun. A bandit who was pinching the neck of a Red Army soldier with both hands and rushed over. He grabbed the soldier who was huddling and vomiting on the ground. While pulling him up, he shouted: "Run towards Zhou Baoyu's machine gun!"
Then, rushed down to a comrade-in-arms who were fighting against the enemy.
After yi rescued three soldiers in the company, he saw that the enemy's number was obviously superior and he could not escape if he didn't leave. Zhang Qingshan didn't care about anything else and ran towards Zhou Baoyu while shooting.
Zhou Baoyu also shot on the top of the mountain to cover his comrades back.
At this time, as the Red Army took the initiative to evacuate, the enemy and us gradually became increasingly obvious. They were condescending and clearly understood, and the machine gun was just firing down.
It's a lucky thing to attack the enemy, let alone chase after him, and it's not a machine gun to run away in a hurry.
The bearded man was injured by someone on his left arm, holding a box cannon in his right hand, and was fighting back at Zhou Baoyu while shouting to his men to retreat quickly. However, these guys were leaving quite steadily, at least, most of them shot against the Red Army while covering the retreat, while a small number of them quickly gathered the horses and wounded. In the end, the group of horse bandits disappeared behind the high ground in the distance.
Zhang Qingshan looked around and saw that even he was only nine people left. At this time, it was not a time to be sad for the sacrifice of his comrades. In order to prevent the bandits from coming back, Zhang Qingshan quickly ordered everyone to clean up the battlefield.
Fortunately, even if he was injured, he was not seriously injured. When cleaning the battlefield, Sun Zhiping was still alive. However, his right thigh was cut by a bandit, and his right shoulder was also holed by a bullet.
There was another major loss: the two horses were taken away by the bandits. Zhang Qingshan felt very sorry: These two horses not only had some food, but more importantly, they also had raincoats and medicines. Especially now, what should I do if I don’t have medicine? Without horses, everyone can only carry Sun Zhiping forward on a stretcher. The pace will naturally slow down. It will also affect morale. After all, in such an environment, without medicine, it is easy to say that Sun Zhiping will survive and be injured elsewhere, but his legs are injured and there are no horses to ride, so he told him how to bear to implicate his comrades. In fact, during the Long March, many people were unwilling to implicate their comrades after being injured and sacrificed themselves.
Of course, at this time everyone thought of the benefits of Zhang Qingshan's initial proposal: to distribute food and ammunition to everyone, and only a small part of it is kept for horses to carry. If they are all concentrated, the horses will be led by the bandits, and everyone will be able to eat wild vegetables. When they were in the war just now, everyone put down their things on their bodies. The bandits walked in a hurry and didn't care about the things in the scattered places. They could just pick them up.
