The combat mission of the Sixth Company is to recover positions No. 6, No. 5, No. 4 and No. 0 in sequence. After taking the three positions in front, only a dozen of the more than 90 people in the Sixth Company were left. In the early morning of the 19th, company commander Wan Fulai organized the remaining soldiers into three demolition teams to blast several bunkers at position zero. As a result, three demolition teams took turns and all suffered casualties.
At this moment, Huang Jiguang, Wu Sanyang and Xiao Dengliang rushed forward. The three of them took turns covering the blast, and quickly blew up three small bunkers, leaving only the last large bunker. At this time, Wu Sanyang died, and Xiao Dengliang was also seriously injured and dying. In the light of enemy flares, the instructor saw that Huang Jiguang was the only one injured and moving, so he quickly crawled over and used his machine gun to cover Huang Jiguang. Huang Jiguang dragged his injured leg, slowly climbed to the front of the bunker, and then threw a grenade with all his strength. Unexpectedly, this large bunker was very strong. After the grenade exploded, only a small corner of the bunker collapsed. The enemy's machine guns were still spitting out tongues of fire crazily. At this time, Huang Jiguang's body moved decisively towards the machine gun perforation, blocking the blazing tongue of flame with his body...
