Wang Xuexin did not hesitate. He handed over the command of the defense line to the deputy company commander Xie Baoqing, and then shouted at Huzi: "A row, come with me!"

As he said that, he turned around and ran towards the rear as he carried the rifle.

Hu Zi is a veteran, and his advantage is that he will firmly implement Wang Xuexin's orders at any time.

At this time, when he heard Wang Xuexin calling, he immediately followed Wang Xuexin with a row.

Although the row at this time was named first row, because one veteran led two new recruits using the three-three system, the actual number was more than one hundred people comparable to one company.

Wang Xuexin took them along the trench sideways, then entered the traffic trench and walked around the wing of the high ground behind him. Then he raised his head to Hu Zi who was following him and ordered: "Take two squads to stick to the high ground, pay attention to enemies disguised as people, are there any clear tasks?"

"Yes, it's clear!" Hu Zi responded, waved to him, and shouted, "Squad 1, Squad 2, and Squad 3 follow the company commander!"

The squad leader of the third squad is Wang Zhisheng, who is good at playing landmines.

This is also the main reason why Wang Xuexinyi habitually shouts a row of people whenever he has something to do... He used to be a row of platoon leader, and he could understand each class about this row.

For example, Wang Zhisheng is Wang Xuexin’s old subordinate.

The former squad leader of Class 3 was Zhou Ping, who died on a grenade for the safety of others.

Later, Zhang Qingcai was appointed as the third squad leader, and Zhang Qingcai was promoted to the third squad leader before Wang Zhisheng was appointed as the squad leader.

Because we know the roots and even understand the history, we can be easily commanded.

Otherwise, if Wang Xuexin brought Liang Guisheng or Zhang Qingcai's class to the next class, he would feel unfamiliar.

Wang Xuexin led the soldiers to rush towards the arsenal and saw from a distance that the guard platoon of the arsenal laid the main force at the foot of the mountain.

The arsenal had only one defense force to strengthen the platoon of more than forty people.

This is because the arsenal is located behind the headquarters, and if the enemy wants to attack, they must first cross Lujiagou.

From this perspective, the arsenal does not need too many guards.

It makes sense that the guard platoon will place the main force at the foot of the mountain.

The enemy suddenly appeared in the rear, that is, to the west, and this was the direction of the arsenal's hole. The enemy was likely to shoot grenade launchers or even mortar shells into the hole.

In order to avoid the arsenal from the enemy's attack, the guard platoon of course had to build a line of defense in front of the arsenal.

However, the guard platoon obviously did not expect that their threat was not from the direction of gunfire, but from the Japanese who were interspersed from the flanks.

"The position on the top of the mountain!" Wang Xuexin ran violently and shouted at the guard platoon panting: "Return to the position on the top of the mountain!"

The guard platoon leader was a soldier named Gao Deshan, but he was a soldier for five years in his early thirties.

The reason why he was transferred to defend the arsenal was because he had worked as the captain of the district squadron before and later served as the company commander in the Eighth Route Army.

Although these two positions are not high, they both require being able to stand alone and defending the arsenal also has this requirement.

Before Gao Deshan became a guard, he happened to be the company commander of the Independent Regiment.

Gao Deshan once said to Wang Xuexin with emotion: "Comrade Wang Xuexin, if I hadn't played a few more rings at the martial arts competition, the third battalion commander would be mine today, and you should be my subordinate!"

Wang Xuexin was a little curious: "Then why did you participate in the martial arts competition?"

Gao Deshan tilted his mouth and replied regretfully: "No one told me that this was the selection of guards, but he only said there were prizes..."

As he said that, he lit the cup in his hand in front of Wang Xuexin and said, "There are prizes, but for this thing, I sold myself!"

Wang Xuexin couldn't help but laugh.

He could see that Gao Deshan really hoped to kill the enemy and make contributions on the battlefield like Wang Xuexin. He often sighed that in a few years, he would probably not be able to fight his body.

Therefore, when the gunshots sounded in the rear, Gao Deshan thought of the first thing he thought of was to bring troops to reinforce.

But after thinking about it, he said "ah" again.

The task of the guard platoon is to protect the arsenal, and at this time, we should do our job well rather than go wherever we fight.

Therefore, Gao Deshan could only suppress the impulse and led his troops to build a line of defense at the foot of the mountain.

At this moment, Wang Xuexin ran back and shouted at the top of the mountain position, and thought to himself that it was going to be bad, and the Japanese were intertwined!

Gao Deshan did not hesitate and shouted: "Everyone has it, withdraw the position on the top of the mountain!"

However, it was only then that I realized that it was too late.

Gao Deshan and Wang Xuexin had just run to the hillside with the soldiers when there was a burst of gunfire and explosions coming from the top of the mountain.

Gao Deshan was anxious and regretful, and urged the soldiers to speed up one after another. He hoped to come and fight back before the enemy took the top position.

But the enemy's speed was too fast. In a short while, the machine gun bullets shot down from the top of the mountain position, pressing the soldiers on the inclined surface and unable to move.

Gao Deshan punched the ground in annoyance and cursed: "Damn it, everyone has it. Take me back the top position..."

"Platform leader Gao!" Wang Xuexin ran up from behind and stopped Gao Deshan's recklessness.

This is actually not entirely reckless, but also a kind of guilty mentality.

Because of the command error, the position on the top of the mountain was lost and the comrades in a squad died, I felt that I had the responsibility to take the position back and avenge these comrades.

But the battlefield is never a place to act voluntarily.

The next step is not simply "for tooth and for tooth and for eye" to fight the enemy.

Wang Xuexin held the gun and leaned against the mound, alerting Gaodeshan next to him: "Our mission is to protect the arsenal, not to regain the position on the top of the mountain!"

He woke up Gao Deshan in one sentence, and he nodded slightly to agree.

If you lead your troops to rush towards the top of the mountain for a while, I am afraid that everyone, including the arsenal, will not be spared.

After thinking about it, Gao Deshan asked: "But the enemy has occupied the position on the top of the mountain and we have no danger to defend. How should we fight?"

Gao Deshan is right. The highlands in the arsenal area did not build a backscene fortification. The enemy machine gun was fired to the end on the top of the mountain. Grenades were also thrown wherever they wanted. All the unfavorable factors occupied almost all of them.

Just as Wang Xuexin hesitated, the Japanese launched a charge under the cover of machine guns and grenades.

Wang Xuexin looked over and saw that it was good guys, and the group of guys holding submachine guns... These guys were staring at Lujiagou and launching sneak attacks again and again.

The military situation was urgent, and Wang Xuexin did not think much and ordered: "Send the cartridges, withdraw back to the cave, guard the entrance of the cave and wait for reinforcements!"

"I understand!" Gao Deshan replied, then turned around and ordered: "Don't send the cartridge!"

The cigarette cartridges were thrown out, and the inclined surface was soon covered with smoke.

At this time, Wang Xuexin and others divided into several parts and retreated into the cave where the arsenal was located.
