Dandelion, also known as Dandelion or Dandelion, belongs to the Asteraceae family. It tastes sweet, flat and slightly cold.
There are few dandelions near the wine station, and most of them are dug up and eaten. More importantly, there is a little Hongying with braids in the wine station. She likes dandelions. If she doesn't appear on the beach by the water, she must be picking dandelions, happily blowing the white fluffy umbrellas away in the wind again and again.
Under the blue sky and white clouds, in the green open space north of the wine station, next to a dry tree stump, there is a rare dandelion. The white spherical seed fluff is perfectly bathed in the sun, swaying occasionally in the breeze but not dispersing.
The dry tree stump suddenly cracked with a horizontal mark, and the broken pieces flew everywhere, passing by with a whistling sound, and then there was another whistling sound. The dandelions burst without warning and scattered in disorder after the ballistic impact, but the sun was still shining.
The sound of gunfire was endless, sometimes continuous and sometimes scattered. Across the open area north of the wine station, a long line of fire was stretched from east to west. Three enemy companies stretched out in that woods. A faint smoke filled the green shadows, and bullets whistled like the wind. On this uneasy morning, the battle for the wine station had already begun between Li Youde's troops and the 9th Company.
Li Yong led the team westward. He pulled out three of the five companies from Luoye Village and entered the mountain pass at dawn. He habitually thought that this was another symbolic attack. He imagined that the first target after entering the mountain would be the wine station. After the ninth company escaped tactfully, he would set fire to it, and then march towards Dabizhuang. Finally, he would meet up with the imperial army, do odd jobs, finish his work, and receive an award.
However, the gunfire had been going on for half an hour, and the 9th Company had no intention of escaping from the wine station. Li Yong was so anxious that he deployed all three companies under his command, and the width of the firepower almost fan-shapedly connected the upstream bank of the wine station to the downstream bank of the river, but it still failed to have a deterrent effect.
What the hell is wrong with the Ninth Company? They are being shameless! Li Yong was furious and wanted to give up the wine station and continue to go west, but he didn't dare to do so because he knew that the Ninth Company was a wolf. The situation in the direction of Dabei Village was unknown. How could he feel safe with the Ninth Company biting at his back? Time was wasted like this.
In the bunker that looked like a huge tomb, gun smoke filled the air and shells were scattered all over the ground. Ma Liang left the observation hole and shouted to the communication trench behind the bunker: "Chen Chong, this is for you!"
The Czech light machine gun at the main firing position emptied another magazine, and the assistant gunner in the bunker yelled, "Not many bullets left!"
There was a sudden crackling sound as the ground fell. Several stray bullets hit the area around the firing hole. The machine gunner's helmet was blown off and he fell to the ground in the dark shooting position. He shook his head in a daze, gasping for breath and was so shocked that he couldn't speak.
"Then use rifles as the main weapon! They won't dare to attack for a while!" Ma Liang answered the question without looking back. He crouched down with a rifle in his hand and left the bunker, entering a communication trench that was more than half a person deep.
Most of the soldiers in Chen Chong's platoon were on standby in the nearly fifty-meter-long trench. They sat or curled up with their backs against the trench wall, holding their rifles, listening nervously to the whistling sound that occasionally flew overhead.
"Check the ammunition!... Everyone check your ammunition..." Ma Liang, who was walking south along the trench and through the woods, stepped over the soldiers' legs lying across the trench, squeezed past Chen Chong who was coming to take over the command of the bunker, and reminded the soldiers in Chen Chong's platoon again and again. The real purpose was not to ask them to check the ammunition, but to give some overly nervous recruits something to do. Counting bullets can relieve stress, which is much better than telling them that the bullets can't hit you.
Qin You's cabin is the smallest and most dilapidated building in the hotel, but it has the best location. There are wooden houses scattered around it, and stray bullets from the outside cannot fly here, so Hu Yi, who has observed the battle situation, returned here and used it as a temporary command center. The windows and doors were open, and the broken table and bench in the middle of the room were moved to a corner where they would not get in the way. Hu Yi sat on the floor with his back against the edge of the bed, his Type 38 rifle leaning upright on his shoulder, and the rifle strap in his hand, which he fiddled with subconsciously.
Amid the din of gunfire, Qin You slipped into the doorway, squatted against the wall, wiped the sweat off his face with his dirty sleeves, and then dug into his pocket for a cigarette: "I've arranged everything in the village, and the last wave has also withdrawn. What do you think?"
"I didn't think of anything."
"Then why are you still here? Can we just stop doing this?"
Hu Yi smiled: "If he wants me to leave, Li Youde must be able to force me to leave!"
Qin You, who had just lit a cigarette, choked accidentally. Hu Yi's behavior finally confirmed that the reason why he was reluctant to give the order to retreat was because of the hatred for destroying the crops in Qingshan Village. After a moment of silence, Qin You took another big puff of the cigarette: "I'm talking to you... Okay, okay. Just stay at my shabby house, and I'll go prepare lunch for you!"
Qin You walked out the door and Ma Liang hurried in. He slipped into the door and fell to the ground beside it: "Brother, are you looking for me?"
"Pick out twenty-five men, I'll give you a machine gun, and reorganize your platoon. Now give me a stand."
The losses in past battles have caused the Ninth Company to have a disorganized structure. Hu Yi has been considering reorganizing it. It has only been a few days since he came back and now Li Youde has come knocking on his door again. So he might as well reorganize the company. After all, the soldiers in the Ninth Company have already known each other and are not new recruits, so there won't be a big impact if there is no running-in.
Ma Liang thought quickly and said, "If there are only 25, then... three plus one. Three seven-man squads and one four-man machine gun crew."
"Hurry up and set up a team. Then take your platoon to the south bank to rest and pay more attention to the situation downstream."
"I understand!" Ma Liang immediately stood up and added, "We don't have many Type 79 bullets left."
"I heard it."
Tian Sanqi, who was running over in a hurry, almost bumped into Ma Liang who was turning to leave. He didn't understand why Hu Yi summoned him. He stood at attention with his chest out. The chaotic gunfire outside did not affect him. He habitually performed like a tough guy in the Second Company. What he didn't expect was that he was appointed by Hu Yi as the second platoon leader of the Ninth Company, and all the more than 20 idle soldiers left after the reorganization of the First Platoon were his.
Seeing that he was stunned and didn't say anything, Hu Yi said, "If you have any opinions, please raise them!"
So Tian Sanqi stood at attention and saluted, looking at the wall in front of him instead of looking at Hu Yi who was sitting on the ground.
After everything was arranged, Hu Yi placed the rifle horizontally in front of him and prepared to go to the stone building to take a look. As a result, someone else came in. In fact, Hu Yi knew who it was when she heard her footsteps outside the door. Instead of getting up in a hurry, he frowned.
"Didn't I tell you to go with Sun Cui?" Having said that, Hu Yi still raised his hand and pointed to the wall next to the door, signaling her to lower her posture and not stand at the door.
"Aren't you refusing to leave?" Su Qing's answer was not polite, but she still obediently left the door and sat down against the wall with her knees bent.
"You... I am because... this is a military matter!"
"No need to explain to me."
Hu Yi was relieved to find that he was not here for a political class. "Then why are you here?"
"Captain, please look carefully. I am also wearing a military uniform!" Su Qing also placed the Zhongzheng rifle in his arms: "Give me a few rows of bullets."
"… "
The gunshots continued. Hu Yi didn't know what expression he should give her at this moment. He just felt that she was getting weirder and weirder recently. Although she was still beautiful in his eyes... Give her a bullet? Oh my God! What's the difference between that and "I'll die in front of you"
