Three hundred and ninetieth chapters precarious position
Chapter 394: The stormy position
The god of death wanders in the fire, wind and iron rain. The god of war dances wildly in the bloody storm.
The counterattack troops continued to fight, without any hesitation. They attacked all one company and then reinforced one company. Some companies were completely destroyed by enemy artillery fire before reinforcements were in place. However, the subsequent troops were still continuously engaged in the battle, replenishing troops as they fought and promoted as they were short. They were appointed on the battlefield first, and then reported to their superiors for approval after the war.
Historical records of the 45th Division: It was a night counterattack, using a total of 10 companies, and a total of more than 1,600 people were invested.
But only Wang Yang knew that the historical records were simply nonsense. At least from what he saw, at least 123 companies rushed into the 597.9 highland and the 573.7 highland, and the fierceness of the battle was unbearable.
Wang Yang only knew that in addition to these companies, there were reinforcements that continued to appear in the tunnel. Once the troops were not in enough staff, they would quickly replenish supplies. The most exaggerated thing was that most of the soldiers in the company kept falling down during the attack and were constantly carried down. The company's chief officer was forced to be replaced.
Wang Yang kept appointing new commanders on the front line of fire, a young soldier in the 7th Company who was defending the tunnel with him. In this process, from a newcomer who had just joined the army, he first became the squad leader in this attack. Then, because of the continuous casualties of the platoon where he was, Wang Yang wanted to designate him as the platoon leader. Later, when he repeatedly fought with the enemy in the No. 3 position, Wang Yang asked him to rush up with two platoons with less than half of his troops, he was actually already the deputy company commander.
It was not until the end of the battle that Wang Yang knew the name of the soldiers. His name was Wang Qing. He was only eighteen years old and had only been in the army for a year. However, he was promoted three levels on the front line, which was even more powerful than Wang Yang at the time. After a battle, he became the deputy company commander and was promoted three levels in a row.
The fierce battle in Shangganling can only be compared with the most tragic battle of Stalingrad in World War II.
During the fierce battle, not only Wang Yang and the others felt that they were all capable in the battle, but even the Second Division of the Han Dynasty was beaten to chaos.
A shell suddenly exploded by. Wang Yang rushed to the side of a blown bunker. Wang Qing, who had just been promoted to deputy company commander, was really lucky. He had just rushed to the No. 3 position with two platoons, but after only a while, he was suppressed by the enemy's support brigade. Due to the lack of support behind, the position was taken away by the enemy. Less than half of the platoons suffered heavy losses again. Less than one-third of the people who returned were still alive. However, Wang Qing was still jumping around. Looking at the boy's rampage, it seemed that the bullets and artillery fire on the position were avoiding him. Wang Yang was a little ashamed, thinking that the goddess of luck suddenly took a fancy to this young and handsome guy?
Unfortunately, no matter how lucky Wang Qing is, the danger is not over. Since the position is lost, it must be recaptured. Seeing that the position is trapped in the enemy again, Wang Yang was in a hurry and immediately called on the Eighth Company, which had already seized the No. 7 position and No. 4 position, and was determined to fight the last force to reoccupate the No. 3 main peak position.
The artillery rumbled, and with the overwhelming enemy bullets, the soldiers who could move on the position of the Seventh Company heard Wang Yang's shouting, and they rushed towards the main peak position of No. 3, but the enemy's firepower on the mountain was extremely fierce, and the heavy machine gun bullets with a thumbshot made the soldiers unable to lift their heads. Wang Yang and the others had to detour from the side of the position No. 4, and quietly arrived at a half-blasted bunker between the position No. 4 and No. 3.
The situation is a bit special. What made Wang Yang and the others extremely strange was that they were not attacked by the enemy, but they heard the noise in the bunker, and bursts of electric currents came. There was an enemy's radio contact point here, and the enemy was completely knocked out by the attack of the volunteers. The enemy in the bunker didn't care about the secret words at all. As long as they could make it clear, they would use it in conjunction with it. A panic cry came from the bunker.
"Photo studio (Fifth Company of the 31st Korean Regiment), I am Galaxy Water (2nd Battalion of the 31st Korean Regiment). Now the enemy's artillery fire is too strong, don't concentrate and disperse, and go to the cave. Have the museum (6th Company of the 31st Korean Regiment) arrived?"
"The Milky Way, the museum has not arrived yet."
"The boys (we) were surrounded by the virgins (volunteers). The old lady flower (9th Company of the 31st Korean Regiment) is here quickly!"
"The virgin is coming to get married (attack), and have a good light (flare) look at it."
"The dog (enemy) 16o (artillery fire) keeps coming, please agree (to fight back)!"
"Jilongshan Jilongshan (3rd Battalion of the 31st Korean Regiment), Hat (8th Company of the 31st Korean Regiment) and Hat (8th Company of the 31st Korean Regiment) were called urgently, Hat was called urgently, and we had only 19 people in total."
"Hat, withdraw immediately, write the battle situation tonight into a written report, and send it to the battalion headquarters..."
The battle was around 2 o'clock in the morning. It seemed that Wang Yang and his team were at the right time. At present, the enemy suffered extremely heavy losses above the No. 3 position of Highland 597.9, and there were only a dozen people left.
Hearing this situation, Wang Yang raised the gun in his hand and put it at the entrance of the bunker. At a glance, he saw three enemies roaring with radio stations inside. Wang Qing rushed forward in one step, picked up the steel gun in his hand and shouted at the South Korean soldiers: "Turkey Airlines, Earth Airlines (Korean: surrender and surrender)!"
Wang Qing had long been red in his eyes. He was injured in several minor injuries on his body, and blood was everywhere on his face and chest. In addition, his resentful look on his face, under the flames of war in the dark, his face looked like a god of war. The steel gun in his hand was pressing against three South Korean soldiers. It seemed that as long as the enemy was a little quarrel, he would shoot him without hesitation.
The South Korean army in the bunker was frightened. This direction was still close to their attack direction. There would be no volunteer army. However, I didn't expect that Wang Yang was fighting and Li Baocheng from the Eighth Company. As long as Wang Yang and the others were in a detour and gave the Eighth Company a signal, they would attack forward and backward, and strive to take down the position this time, and never let the enemy occupy it easily.
In front of him was a black gun and a volunteer soldier with an angry look on his face. Several South Korean soldiers quickly agreed: "Sun Deqinsuo, Sun Deqinsuo (Korean: raise your hand, raise your hand)."
But what made Wang Yang laugh and cry and these South Korean soldiers very desperate was that Wang Qing actually shouted this to scare the enemy. In fact, this guy who had just joined the army didn't know much Korean? Even the words "Turkey Airlines and Earth Airlines" were learned and bought immediately. As for Sun Deqinsuo, who was responding in panic, he didn't know what it meant?
Hearing several South Korean soldiers crying and howling in panic. After the once extremely arrogant Goryeo kangzi shook his tail and begged for mercy, Wang Qing couldn't help but think of the soldiers who died on the position. He felt angry in his heart. He took out a large grenade and stuffed it into the hole of the bunker gun: "I'll tell you to yell!"
These Goryeo sticks were so long that they could not escape the fate of destruction after all. There was only a muffled sound in the bunker, and then a few screams came. Once upon a time, these Goryeo sticks also stuffed some bombs and grenades into the tunnel, causing a lot of casualties among the soldiers in the tunnel. However, the debt in June was too fast, and these guys finally tasted the taste of despair.
The body flashed slightly, and Wang Yang and Wang Qing saw the grenade falling into the bunker. They hid outside the bunker. At this time, Wang Yang and Shi Donglai only saw the scene before them. Anyway, they were not enthusiastic about catching prisoners. These Goryeo sticks would die if they died. After knocking out the bunker, Wang Yang and the soldiers immediately turned around and rushed towards the main peak of the No. 3 position.
"Old Shi, pick up the bazooka in the bunker!"
On the 597.9 high ground, there were brave volunteer soldiers on one side, while on the other side were the continuous "United Nations Army". Both sides were constantly replenishing troops on the main position. Often, one charge would consume the boss's strength to occupy the position, but before he could gain a foothold, the reinforcements would climb up there, and after fierce battles, the position had to be occupied by the enemy.
Wang Yang always felt that they were not strong enough firepower, so he always felt regretful. However, when he turned around the bunker, he saw a super Mazuka faintly appearing in a bunker beside him, and he shouted loudly to Shi Donglai behind him.
"Good guy, it's still intact, dad! I'll make these Goryeo sticks lively now!"
Shi Donglai's eyes lit up. Not only was Wang Yang extremely concerned about the current rocket launcher, but all the soldiers attacking were also extremely expecting, because after two consecutive repetitions, the enemy on the No. 3 position suddenly rushed to a machine gun platoon, two heavy machine guns, three light machine guns, and two mortars seemed to have stood above the position. The bullets that swept the sky and the earth swept down, making the soldiers of the attacking 7th Company unable to raise their heads at all. Wang Yang and Shi Donglai had long been looking at fire and wishing to burn these machine guns. With this rocket launcher, Wang Yang and others finally saw hope of seizing the position.
"Zhao Lindong. You guys help me carry these ammunitions. I didn't expect that these communication soldiers still have a lot of treasures. We've sent it now!"
Shi Donglai smiled suddenly, and carried the Super Bazuka and loaded a rocket. Seeing that there was a lot of inventory in an ammunition box next to him, he immediately asked a soldier behind him to help, then he flashed to find favorable terrain, preparing to give the enemy a sudden moment to make the machine guns silence immediately.
"Wang Qing, send a signal flare! Let the Eighth Company attack with us!"
With this super ba group card, Wang Yang felt that he was much more confident in occupying the position now, so he immediately ordered Wang Qing beside him and immediately met the No. 3 position with the soldiers.
With a whoosh, when Wang Qing's signal was launched, the enemies on the No. 3 position had not yet realized that there were volunteer soldiers watching them behind them. Instead, Li Baocheng, who was originally suppressed below the front of the No. 3 position, suddenly waved his hand, and the soldiers below the position stood up again, and began to rush upwards regardless of everything, which attracted all their sight. He only turned the machine gun in his hands frantically to try to stop the soldiers of the Eighth Company from advancing.
This battle was really crazy. The soldiers of the Eighth Company watched their comrades fall on the position one by one. The No. 3 main peak position was repeatedly fought over by the enemy again and again. They were bound to win this attack.
Heroism is like a strong wind blowing 597.9 highland, and courage of all orders is squeezed and collided in the gust of blood and fire.
The passionate heroes forgot their fear and did not know the pain. Cui Yuxue, the third squad leader of the Eighth Company, was injured with his right hand and held the bullet with his left hand. He licked out the ring of fire with his tongue, pulled his teeth and pulled the line of fire and threw it hard.
The soldier Shang Yongqing was shot three times by the enemy's heavy machine gun. He knew that he could not survive, but he used all his strength to clamp the blasting tube with his upper arm, pulled the string with his left hand, and pushed the mountain down with one arm. In this way, he held an enemy's light machine gunner and walked towards immortality.
The heroic fighting spirit of the volunteer soldiers made the South Korean soldiers on the No. 3 position tremble, but these Goryeo sticks refused to give in. They picked up their guns and fired wildly, but they still fired a few shots. Only a loud bang was blowing around them. At this time, Shi Donglai greeted these enemies immediately.
The huge explosion airflow rushed the enemy one by one. When they came to their senses and tried to pick up the machine guns on the position again, several sounds of Earth-European and Earth-European Korean sounded behind them. When they turned around, they had already found several black muzzles pointing at them. A South Korean soldier still wanted to resist, but Wang Yang and the others seemed to have no intention of leaving prisoners. Of course, they fired without hesitation. With the sound of their eyes, the enemy's two heavy machine guns were destroyed.
The most threatening enemy was destroyed by Wang Yang and the others, so Li Baocheng and the others took the opportunity to rush up. The remaining ten South Korean soldiers on the No. 3 position were stunned. They faced the Eighth Company soldiers who rushed up from below, and the Seventh Company elite soldiers who came down the mountain like tigers, and the enemy suddenly panicked.
The dense bullets and grenades that fell like hail almost eliminated all the remaining stubborn enemies. Amid the enemy's screams, nearly 30 people from the 7th Company and the Eighth Company finally stood above the No. 3 position, and there were also several machine guns, mortars, rocket launchers, and highlands of 597.9 that were sent by Wang Yang and others.
The good news was passed to the division command post, and Cui Jiangong ordered all counterattack troops on the 597.9 high ground to be commanded by Wang Yang, the squadron leader of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade. Wang Yang immediately organized the group on the spot and quickly joined the defending position.
Commander Cui Jiangong directly called Wang Yang and asked: "What do you need to firmly defend the main peak?"
Wang Yang said loudly to the commander: "Teacher, you need grenades and grenades. The more you need, the better. It is best to get us a few thousand sacks. The mountain is blown out of a ruler to make the soil deep, and it is impossible to dig fortifications."
Cui Jiangong said: "We will send someone to deliver it as soon as possible."
When the leader of Shishi heard that Wang Yang and the others needed grenades, he quickly sent a car to the western front where the war was relatively calm.
The grenades and grenades of the 39th Army, the 40th Army, and the 65th Army were loaded into a carriage and transported to Deshanxian in baskets like big radishes.
The logistics personnel of the 45th Division urgently mobilized 2,000 grain sacks. Before dawn, the transport troops of the fire line suddenly transported the batch of ammunition and sacks to the 597.9 Highlands, preparing to fight against the enemy.
On this crazy night, the transportation line of the 15th Army was extremely excited, and a large number of supplies rushed, and 144 trucks were pulled by ammunition alone.
At this time, Ding Yiquan, the commander of the Second Division of Han, was in Qiguan Cave about 10 kilometers south of Shangganling. He heard that the 597.9 highland had been lost, so he immediately held an emergency meeting at the division headquarters to study the counterattack plan.
This was his last attack from the Second Division of the South Korean Division. He will take over as deputy commander of the Ninth Legion tomorrow afternoon. Four months later, the Chief of Staff of the South Korean Army, Bai Shanye, once again fulfilled his promise and appointed Ding Yiquan as the commander of the Second Legion, responsible for the defense of the Jincheng front line.
Ding Yiquan was not good at attacking and left behind many defeats in Shangganling.
However, defending was not his strength. Nine months after the Battle of Shangganling, the Volunteer Army launched the Battle of Jincheng, and within an hour, it broke through the 25-kilometer-wide defensive front of the Second Korean Army, advanced nearly 15 kilometers deep into it, and annihilated more than 60,000 troops of the army. Ding Yiquan failed to attack and defend, and he was really worthy of his high position.
But after the 597.9 Highlands fell, the Second Han Division reacted very quickly. In less than two hours, the 31st Korean Regiment completed the battle preparations. At dawn, the regiment threw its remnants and Abyssinian Battalion together in the vast morning mist to attack Wang Yang and the others. The artillery fire was so fierce that the telephone lines buried underground were all blown into threads more than half a foot long. Wang Yang and the others were facing unprecedented pressure.
On the battlefield, in order to quickly connect to the telephone line, the frontier command post of the 86th Regiment sent a telecommunications soldier to tunnel No. 3, Highland 597.9, and pulled it three times, seven people were killed and killed, and lost five or six kilometers of re-tracking. However, even so, Wang Yang still couldn't say a word to the tunnel troops. They were holding their heads in a strong offensive against the enemy for the whole morning.
"Comrades, it's time to make meritorious contributions. Holding the position means defending the victory. You must never let the enemy take the position back. You can fight to the last person until the end, and you must completely hand over the position to the support troops behind you!"
In the continuous battle with the enemy, Wang Yang and the soldiers almost didn't have time to breathe. They only knew that they had repelled the enemy's attacks again and again, and made the enemy attack fiercely for more than 7 hours. The old soldiers crawled out of the tunnel were no longer willing to endure the day and night in the tunnel. They swear to never retreat. Even if the enemy attacked fiercely, the soldiers still defended the 597.9 Highland Lord Peak. The 31st Regiment of Han finally could not attack at all and completely lost its combat effectiveness.
According to Korean historical records, the regiment was unable to recover until the end of the Korean War, and even the old, weak and remnants were unable to replenish their troops. Similarly, the Abyssinian camp was also broken and bloody under Wang Yang and the others' persistence.
When Abyssinian Battalion retreated, he happened to meet Major General James, the commander of the US Nine Army, who came to the front line to inspect. When he saw the embarrassing appearance of Abyssinian Battalion, James frowned and ordered the attack to stop.
He said to Ding Yiquan, who was accompanying the inspection, "Forget it today, I have decided to transfer the 30th Regiment of the Ninth Division to you. I will definitely take back Jenny Russell Mountain tomorrow."
By the afternoon of the 31st, the counterattack troops led by Wang Yang and the others had experienced 9 and a half hours of bloody storm, setting a record for the highest daily ammunition consumption in the Battle of Shangganling: nearly 30,000 grenades and grenades, 260 blasting tubes were thrown; more than 300,000 bullets and more than 21,000 shells were fired. However, this was the first day, and the battle was just beginning. When Wang Yang and the others finally took a breath and got some rest and replenishment in the evening, they had already arrived together the next day and heard the sentry shouting: "The enemy is coming again!"
Chapter completed!
