Zhao Zhiguo led his troops to retreat while fighting, while the Japanese troops pressed forward step by step.

The machine gun platoon was already unable to protect itself, and Zhao Zhiguo had given up hope on them.

The little Japanese infantry rushed up one after another, as if they couldn't kill them all.

If the enemy and ourselves are not separated, the soldiers will be consumed by the little devils.

In the pitch-black night, their machine gunners had already been involved in a melee with the Japanese army, and the machine guns were lost somewhere.

How easy is it to find a machine gun?

The Japanese soldiers went crazy, and soldiers kept falling around Zhao Zhiguo.

Seeing that the battle between the two sides was about to decide the winner, at this moment, the firepower of two machine guns suddenly opened fire on the Japanese army.

Bullets were like meteors, streaking across the night sky quickly.

"Da da da"

The bullets sprayed out, harvesting the Japanese soldiers who rushed up one by one.

Zhao Zhiguo and the soldiers looked at the Japanese soldiers who were killed in front of them. They were stunned for a moment, and then quickly fell to the ground.

"Where did the reinforcements come from?" Zhao Zhiguo was confused.

But this was not the time to worry about that. Taking advantage of the cover of machine guns, Zhao Zhiguo and the others left and launched a counterattack.

"Fight the little devil in front of you!"

The Japs in the rear were suppressed, but the Japanese troops in front of them had to be repelled.

The soldiers saw that they had support and fire support points, and the surging Japanese troops in the rear finally stopped.

They fought together with the Japanese army again.

There was only one squad of soldiers who came to support Zhao Zhiguo, and this squad carried two machine guns.

Gao Cang heard the constant explosions coming from the direction of Zhao Zhiguo and judged that the battle situation on Zhao Zhiguo's side was not optimistic.

But Zhao Zhiguo ordered him to guard the recruits' backs, so he simply selected a squad of soldiers to go over to support him.

A short period of fire suppression on the battlefield can give the troops a chance to breathe, and a breath of time can turn the tide.

While Zhao Zhiguo and the others were fighting a bloody battle with the Japanese troops, the Japanese troops in the canyon also charged towards Tian Kezhi and the others.

Tian Kezhi personally visited the frontline battlefield and shuttled on the front line.

He did not fire a single shot, but at this time he played a role in stabilizing the morale of the troops.

As the commander here, he uses his presence to tell every recruit that he is always with the troops and will never retreat.

Although the new recruits lack combat experience, the equipment they are equipped with is not much worse than that of ordinary troops.

"When you're far away, greet with your gun and throw grenades when you come in!" Tian Kezhi directed the battle, "The soldiers on standby behind are pretty good. Keep an eye on each one. If the soldier you're staring at is killed or injured, get to me immediately.

Make it up."

Not many troops could be deployed in the canyon. Not only the little Japanese were limited by the terrain, but Tian Kezhi and the others were also limited by the terrain.

In order to keep the firepower strong enough, it is necessary to make up for the firepower that is vacant at any time.

The little Japanese who broke through also discovered a special thing at this time, that is, the heavy artillery of the Chinese army never fired a shell at them again.

This is nothing short of a great joy for the little devil.

Without that kind of earth-shattering explosion, they could rush close to the Chinese army's position.

As long as they can get close to the position, there is still a possibility of victory in breaking through.

The Japanese army, which was on the verge of despair, had unprecedented explosive power at this moment. They were almost charging in the face of bullets.

Regardless of the cost, the Japanese army rushed out one soldier after another without any interruption in the fighting.

From the beginning of the battle, there was no testing of each other, they were all fighting each other with their own lives. Whoever can persevere will be able to see the sun tomorrow.

"The Japanese troops in the canyon have broken through, do we still have to stay here?"

Gao Cang's troops were still lying motionless.

Among all the nearby armies, Gao Cang and his men are the most elite and most combat-effective.

However, gunshots were heard from all directions, except for Gao Cang, who stood still and was deathly silent.

In fact, Gao Cang was also hesitating whether to send troops to help.

As long as he gives an order, whether it is from Zhao Zhiguo or Tian Kezhi, the crisis will be lifted.

"Believe in the captain, believe in the instructor and Tian Kezhi!"

Gao Cang has gone all the way to this day, and he can be regarded as Zhao Zhiguo's oldest follower. He has never doubted Zhao Zhiguo's decision.

Every decision Zhao Zhiguo made brought them back from danger.

Although he was shaken in his heart, he still chose to believe Zhao Zhiguo's order at this moment.

"I'm worried..." A company commander looked worried.

No matter which side of the battle worsens, the result will be unbearable.

The dense sound of gunfire and explosions around them has always touched the hearts of veterans like them.

These veterans are also loyal followers of Zhao Zhiguo. They voluntarily joined the army and voluntarily resisted the invaders because Zhao Zhiguo led them.

Therefore, these officers and soldiers do not want anything to happen to Zhao Zhiguo.

"Stop talking, load your bullets and wait for my orders. Anyone who dares to disobey will be subject to military law!"

No one is more worried about Zhao Zhiguo than Gao Cang.

But an order is an order, and as long as an order is given, it must be carried out to the letter.

And the distance between them and Zhao Zhiguo and Tian Kezhi is not far.

If Zhao Zhiguo cannot hold on any longer, he will definitely send troops to ask for support.

Tian Kezhi is not the kind of person who pretends to be fat, and it is impossible for him to bring all the new recruits into this battle.

The reason why no one has asked for help shows that they can still hold on in this battle.

When fighting broke out everywhere, the Japanese squadron, which had been invisible, slowly moved toward the canyon.

They heard the gun battle that broke out in the canyon and knew the direction in which their troops were going to break out.

So this Japanese squadron was slowly approaching the direction Tian Kezhi and the others were holding on to.

In the dark night, the troops' attention was attracted by the Japanese troops who were about to break out in the canyon, and they never expected that there were hidden dangers behind them.

When everyone was immersed in the battle, the Japanese squadron finally took action.

"Bang bang bang bang"

There was sudden gunfire behind them, and Tian Kezhi's heart froze because they were surrounded by the Japanese army.

The new recruits in the rear were caught off guard. Facing the vicious Japanese army, they had no such ability to adapt.

The troops were in chaos, and the little Japs rushed in front of them in an instant.

This group of recruits had never seen a close-range stabbing. Killing with a gun and killing with a bayonet were completely different feelings.

Seeing the bright bayonets stabbing them, some soldiers were even so frightened that they did not dare to dodge.

The fighting skills they had trained for a long time had been forgotten at this moment.

"Mount your bayonets! Stop them!"

Tian Kezhi shouted loudly, picked up his bayonet and rushed into the enemy group.
Chapter completed!
