"The enemy is estimated to have around seventy people, and their firepower is intense. They have around ten machine guns. Everyone, please change your position."
"There are three guns in total, target bearing 020, target distance 150 meters, altitude 38, fire!"
"Machine gunners, suppress the fire on the west side! Cover us, and follow me!"
…
A series of orders were quickly issued. In this final battle of perseverance, they will definitely be the victors!
Su Congwen shuttled through the mountains and forests, grabbing every bullet with nimble hands. His mind was now terrifyingly calm, with only one thought in his mind, which was to kill the enemy. Every time he killed an enemy, he would have more strength to comfort the souls of his comrades in heaven.
The battle lasted for more than an hour. The enemy had strong firepower and large numbers of people. Even if they were determined and had faith, it was not easy to defeat the enemy with fewer troops. Su Congwen and his men gradually fell into a disadvantage.
"Hold on, don't fall down!"
The company commander's hoarse voice echoed in the mountains and forests.
No one answered him.
"Where are the people?" He looked around and shouted frantically, "Is there anyone still breathing? Get up and keep fighting!"
The mountain wind blew by, bringing with it a faint sound.
"And, Captain, I'm still here."
It was Su Congwen's voice. He could no longer be identified. His body was pitch black and smelled of blood and burnt gunpowder. He was standing against a tree, but was already shaky.
His leg was bleeding profusely.
The next second, he fell to the ground.
The next second, he stubbornly propped himself up and picked up his gun. As long as he was alive, he would not let go of the gun and he could still fight.
"And me."
"I'm here too."
"Captain, I...I'm fine too."
Those who were buried in the dust, hit by broken branches, injured, bleeding, as long as they had a breath left, raised their hands and made a sound.
Those hands were not noticeable in the dim light, but in the company commander's eyes they were like torches in the darkness, dazzlingly bright.
With tears streaming down his face, he said, "Okay, okay, everyone, just grit your teeth a little more."
"Daybreak is almost here, and we are about to win."
"yes."
One by one, the figures supported their bodies with guns and slowly stood up. They held back their tears, swallowed their blood, clenched their teeth, and used their last bit of strength to rush forward.
“Charge!”
"The worst that can happen is death. Eighteen years later, I'll be a hero again!"
"I'm going to fight you sons of bitches!"
Su Congwen was bleeding and gasping for breath. He could no longer walk, but he could still crawl and move, so he could still fight.
If your foot is injured, you still have your hands. If you run out of bullets, you still have your bayonet. If you run out of bayonets, you can still use your bare hands. The body is a weapon, the spirit is a weapon, and willpower is a weapon.
China's military force is not the strongest in the world, its weapons are not the most advanced, and its soldiers may not be the bravest and most courageous, but their willpower is absolutely unshakable and unmatched.
This has long been verified throughout the five thousand years of history.
This battle was extremely long. Su Congwen even felt that every bullet and every movement of the enemy became slow motion in his eyes. Time seemed to be infinitely stretched, and the arrival of dawn became extremely slow.
"Company Commander." He looked around and called out.
No one answered him.
"Deputy Company Commander, Brother Li, Tongwu, Xiaoli, Brother Danan..." Su Congwen called out their names one by one. No one answered him, and everything around him seemed to be quiet again.
When Su Congwen fell down, his eyes were still looking up at the sky. The pain in his body had been blurred by him. He was just thinking.
Will the dawn really come? Or, can they still wait until the dawn?
————————
"Comrade, comrade, wake up, can you hear me?" A shout suddenly exploded in Su Congwen's ears.
He suddenly opened his eyes and saw an army green tent above his head.
"Great, you're finally awake!" The young girl with braided hair looked pleasantly surprised. "How do you feel now? Are you in any pain? Does anything feel wrong?"
She asked a series of questions.
"Who are you? Where am I? Which unit is this? Where are my comrades? Where are they?"
Su Congwen also asked a series of questions.
Even though he was weak, his eyes were still stern, and the young girl was startled.
"My name is...my name is Chen Xiaoyu. I'm a nurse attached to the 315th Division. I'm responsible for taking care of you. You're safe now. This is..."
"315th Division?" Su Congwen sat up instantly and interrupted Chen Xiaoyu. "Is this the 315th Division?"
Chen Xiaoyu looked at the wounds on his body and became anxious. "You are seriously injured. Lie down and rest!"
Su Congwen didn't care about himself at all, "Answer me first."
"Yes." Chen Xiaoyu was a little helpless. "You heard me right. Can I lie down now?"
"That means our mission is accomplished." Su Congwen was overjoyed, tears streaming down his face. He then quickly asked, "What about my other comrades? Are they still alive?"
"They..." Chen Xiaoyu looked hesitant.
Su Congwen's heart sank.
"How are they?"
"When our troops arrived, you and another soldier were the only ones left alive in your company." Chen Xiaoyu looked reluctant, but still told the truth.
"Who is it? Who is it?" Su Congwen asked. He felt sad. It would be fine even if only one person was left alive.
