Chapter 101: No Artillery Reinforcements From The German Weaponry 87th Division Appear
“We are here to deliver comfort items! My name is Zhou Wen, her name is Chen Yi!”
“We are students from Fudan University in Shanghai. This morning we went to your reception area and saw that those supplies couldn’t be delivered, so we decided to personally bring them to the battlefield here. We also have two classmates who went to Caojia Bridge!”
Zhou Weiguo continued smiling and introduced himself.
“Battalion Commander! Look, it’s wine!”
Er Dan, the fat soldier who brought Zhou Weiguo here, took a bottle of wine from the white cloth bag and said to Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun.
“Quickly distribute the items to everyone!”
“I’ll keep the wine. Hurry and send them back, quick!”
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun took the wine bottle and instructed.
“Yes!”
The fat soldier Er Dan quickly agreed.
“Give it to me! Take cover!”
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun then gave instructions to the soldier beside him.
And took a firearm from the other’s hand,
And at this moment, the troops of the Japanese Marine Corps were also charging and killing toward them,
Thus, soon the sounds of guns and cannons rang out continuously, with firelight soaring everywhere and gunpowder smoke filling the air,
Especially since the battle had not been going on for long,
Er Dan, the soldier who had just been preparing to take Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi away from the battlefield, was also the first to be shot dead on the spot by the Japanese Marine Corps,
He fell to the ground in front of the two of them, spitting blood foam.
“Thank you!”
Before dying, the soldier Er Dan did not forget to thank them for delivering the comfort items.
And seeing this scene,
Whether Chen Yi or Zhou Weiguo, both were greatly shocked in their hearts,
And it was also the first time they experienced the dangerous battle situation on the battlefield.
“A Wen! I’m afraid we won’t be able to go back this time!”
As the battle became more intense,
The terrified Chen Yi said worriedly to Zhou Weiguo, who was holding her.
“Are you afraid?”
Zhou Weiguo said.
“No! I’m not afraid!”
“It’s my fault, I’ve implicated you!”
Chen Yi responded.
“Don’t say that, I came willingly to help you!”
Zhou Weiguo responded.
“Do you regret it?”
Chen Yi continued.
“No regrets!”
“Being with you, I won’t regret anything I do!”
Zhou Weiguo gritted his teeth and said affirmatively.
Chen Yi felt very sweet in her heart upon hearing this,
“Chen Yi, actually there’s something I’ve always wanted to say to you!”
Zhou Weiguo continued.
Chen Yi continued listening attentively.
“I love you!”
Hearing this, Chen Yi also felt joyful in her heart,
“Me too!”
And happily smiled as she responded.
“Chen Yi! Promise me!”
“We’ll never separate, always be together!”
Seeing that Chen Yi also responded to his confession with an affirmative tone,
Zhou Weiguo thus held Chen Yi tightly,
And once again confessed affectionately.
“Never separate, always together!”
Chen Yi also responded emotionally.
Then,
Zhou Weiguo tightly held Chen Yi, amidst the increasingly intense battlefield,
And the machine gun sweeping sounds of the Japanese Marine Corps continued da-da-da echoing around.
And at this moment,
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun, who was stubbornly commanding his troops in the battle, discovered that not only did the rifle in his hand have no bullets,
But even the ammunition boxes behind him had completely exhausted all ammunition, including hand grenades that had almost all been used up in the operation.
Then, he took the bottle of wine that Zhou Weiguo and the others had delivered and walked to the side of the frightened Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi,
“What’s your name?”
He half-kneeled and inquired of Zhou Weiguo and the others.
“Zhou Wen!”
Zhou Weiguo responded.
Hearing this, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun opened the wine bottle in his hand in front of Zhou Weiguo and took a sip.
“The wine you brought is good, thank you!”
Then,
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun thanked Zhou Weiguo.
Hearing this, Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi silently watched Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun, waiting for his next words.
“You’ve all seen it, now the Japanese troops are increasing, my troops’ ammunition has also been completely exhausted, I’m afraid we can’t continue to protect you to leave the battlefield next!”
“Today, I, Chen Zhenglun, cannot protect you!”
Then, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun said in a dejected tone.
And Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi became even more worried, gazing at each other.
But Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun said no more, instead silently picked up a hand grenade he had brought from the ground and handed it to Zhou Weiguo and the others.
And Zhou Weiguo anxiously took the hand grenade handed to him by Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun.
“At the final moment, once the Japanese surround us, pull the ring on this hand grenade!”
“Do you know how to use it?”
After seeing Zhou Weiguo take the hand grenade, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun also had a serious and earnest expression on his face as he spoke.
Zhou Weiguo shook his head, indicating he didn’t.
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun smiled and began teaching Zhou Weiguo how to use the hand grenade for suicide.
After teaching,
“Just pull the ring on this hand grenade like this, close your eyes, and you won’t know anything!”
Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun concluded the topic.
And stood up, heading toward his troops,
While Zhou Weiguo held Chen Yi even more fearfully.
And at this moment, Chen Yi’s heart was also filled with extreme fear,
This was the fear of impending death.
This was the fear of death that the two of them felt for the first time on the battlefield.
“Everyone listen to me, prepare to fix bayonets!”
And at this moment, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun’s order to prepare for bayonet charge also rang in the ears of Zhou Weiguo and Chen Yi, and all the remaining 19th Route Army soldiers,
Thus, soon these remnants immediately acted on orders and fixed all the bayonets.
And at this moment,
It was the moment when the original TV series plot unfolded,
Next was the scene where the artillery unit of the German Weaponry 87th Division conducted artillery bombardment on the Japanese Marine Corps,
Only,
In this current spacetime,
The reinforcement troops and artillery unit of the German Weaponry 87th Division had not yet arrived.
Thus, Battalion Commander Chen Zhenglun also tensely observed the enemy situation,
And watched with his own eyes as several more of his subordinates were shot dead on the spot by the Japanese Marine Corps.
Seeing this, he gripped even tighter the rifle with bayonet fixed in his hand, preparing to charge and kill out, engaging the Japanese Marine Corps in bayonet charge, fighting to the death.
