Chapter 833: Are you afraid? You have to ask my cousin-in-law
Xu Hu, who had returned a long time ago, said, "Don't mention it. Several people screamed and fainted as soon as they entered the field hospital. They are still in the field hospital now."
"That one called Wang Yun, I think she's quite brave."
"It was indeed large. I didn't faint, but it was almost there. My legs were still shaking when I came back. Xiaoyu asked her to rest in the office."
hum...
"What's that? We're willing to kill the enemy, but we're powerless to turn the tide." Zhou Weiguo snorted and put his hands on his hips. "Ignore them. Tell the entire brigade, once the battle begins, everyone will follow me. This time, every head counts."
He turned and looked at Tian Jing who was standing beside him. "Supervisory team, watch out! Anyone who tries to steal our brothers' heads will be shot immediately."
The reward is a head. After hearing this, Commander Bai added, "After the battle, I will give you three thousand dollars to celebrate this victory. I will personally collect this money for the report."
Chief of Staff Wu's mouth twitched. "I'm not as rich as you, but I can still donate 500 yuan.
The Japanese army is coming.
Beneath the dust billowing into the sky were Japanese troops in khaki uniforms. Their infantry, cavalry, and tanks advanced in unison, their formations unorganized. Zhou Weiguo observed them for a moment and said, "It looks like there's a whole regiment coming."
"Almost. This place is a flat land that was deliberately cleared. Judging from the number of people, there are indeed more soldiers than a regiment." Sano Tadayoshi took a quick look and agreed with Zhou Weiguo's opinion.
"Have the scouts reported the situation yet? Have their follow-up troops caught up?"
"Brigade Commander, reconnaissance report: They left a battalion behind, and the rest of the troops have already arrived.
Zhou Weiguo put his hands behind his back. "He dares to come up and fight with such a tired army. Does Tanaka really think I can't kill him?" Zhou Weiguo raised his wrist to check the time. "Everyone, have your meals. We'll launch the attack in an hour. Tell the Air Force not to participate, but to be sure to prevent the Japanese Air Force from attacking us."
The pungent smell of blood made Wang Yun, who was lying on the bed, sit up in panic. She looked around the place and saw only an office desk and a simple bed made of door panels and bricks. The rest was a copper basin, some folders and a few sets of clothes.
Lieutenant Colonel's uniform.
There was a lot of noise outside. It seemed like they were arranging something. She was about to get up, but before she could, the door opened and a woman wearing a lieutenant colonel's uniform, who was probably younger than herself, walked in.
"You're awake." Fan Xiaoyu came in with a meal and put it on the desk with a smile. "Eat now that you're awake."
"You..." Wang Yun only met her once yesterday and had no time to ask.
Fan Xiaoyu straightened her hair and took out another meal. "My name is Fan Xiaoyu, and I'm the vice president of the Independent Brigade Field Hospital. The man who brought you here yesterday is my fiancé. My cousin's husband is the commander of the Independent Brigade. As for my cousin, you should have heard of her name at the Central Daily News. Her name is Xiao Ya."
Although I have never met Xiao Ya, I have heard of her name. The Children's Foundation is very famous in the mountain city, and she has donated a lot of money to it.
"Outside?" Wang Yun sat opposite Fan Xiaoyu and pointed outside.
Fan Xiaoyu took a bite. "The attack is about to begin. The troops are eating in advance. We need to vacate the area immediately after we finish eating so we can accommodate the wounded. My cousin told you not to go up yet. Someone will come to pick you up when it's time."
Wang Yun looked down at the food.
Braised pork, vegetarian offal soup, and a plate of shredded vegetables.
"The food in your Independence Brigade is so good."
"The last meal of execution." Fan Xiaoyu said it casually, and then she noticed that Wang Yun's face had turned pale. She quickly explained, "I'm sorry, I didn't explain clearly. It wasn't originally so good, but with the general attack today, many people can't come back, so the Quartermaster Department specially prepared a rich meal. This is the tradition of our independent brigade. As my cousin said, even if you die on the battlefield, you should die well-fed."
Wang Yun suddenly couldn't eat anymore, and she couldn't help but think of a question.
If you are on the front line, will there be another meal after you finish this one?
She fiddled with the food. Fan Xiaoyu thought she couldn't eat such a greasy meal, so after a moment's thought, he went to the side and fetched a can. "Eat it! Braised pork might be greasy for you back home, but we rarely eat it here. This is Japanese canned food. Maybe you can handle it. It's full of seasonings."
"I'm not, I was just wondering... Aren't the attacking soldiers afraid?"
Scared?
Fan Xiaoyu lowered his head and pondered for a moment before shaking his head. "I don't know, but the first time I went to the front line to rescue the wounded, I was so scared that I urinated. Later, I gradually became numb. As for fear, I didn't care about it at that time. I just wanted to save as many people as possible. As for whether the soldiers and frontline officers were afraid, you can ask my cousin's husband; he's usually on the front lines."
Click, click, click… click, click…
Time was moving forward little by little, and there were still five minutes left before the attack. Commander Bai and Chief of Staff Wu also stood up and came to the bunker to check the preparations.
A person walked in. Zhou Weiguo, who was drinking water, raised his head and hummed, "Why are you here?" Wang Yun walked in wearing a helmet, black trousers and a green suit.
"I'm a war correspondent." Wang Yun's resolute eyes made Zhou Weiguo reach out to Zhao Shoutian after he was about to chase her away.
Zhao Shoutian took out a canteen from his waist and handed it to Zhou Weiguo. Zhou Weiguo opened the canteen and said, "Take a sip. Wine gives you courage, otherwise you'll be scared later."
Wang Yun rarely drinks white wine, but seeing that the general was not lying to him, he really took a big sip and looked at Zhou Weiguo.
Zhou Weiguo glanced at him and said, "Stay with me."
"Brigade Commander, the time is up." Jinxiu, who had been staring at the time, lowered his wrist.
"Attack." Zhou Weiguo slammed his fist on the table and prepared to leave the shelter.
The brigade's artillery battalion consisted of ten field guns and two 100mm howitzers. Suddenly, the artillery roared, shaking the ground. Wang Yun, hearing a thunderous sound, screamed and instantly grabbed Zhou Weiguo's wrist. The scream startled Fang Shengli and the others who were preparing for the emergency at the map.
Zhou Weiguo, who was closest to the source of the scream, reached out and covered her ears; "Open your mouth wide and take a deep breath."
The sound of field artillery was not that loud, but the sound of the two howitzers was very scary.
After Wang Yun recovered, Zhou Weiguo saw that she was still holding his arm and said, "Miss, you are still holding it. I have to go to the front to observe the situation."
