He didn't expect to go to the reconnaissance team tonight. Xia Yuan thought that in the remaining few days, he would dig a well to survive. Unexpectedly, things turned around.
He had previously thought about how to convey information about the enemy's attack targets to his superiors, and his final solution was to tell his superiors through the enemy.
The most direct way he could think of was to fight on the unknown high ground, capture the enemy's combat diary, or capture prisoners.
It's a pity that the soldiers stationed on the unknown highlands are stick soldiers. You must know that in the Korean battlefield, the US military does not regard the stick soldiers as human beings. Why is there a big discrepancy between the number of casualties counted by the US military after the war and the number of casualties counted by our army? Our army killed more enemies than
The number of casualties is much higher than the US military statistics.
That's because among the enemies killed by our army, there are stick soldiers, but the US military does not count the stick soldiers. It only counts its own casualties, but does not count the stick soldiers.
Not only did they not include the stick soldiers, but they also did not include the casualties of soldiers from other countries.
It is for this reason that Xia Yuan does not believe that the stick soldiers stationed on the unknown highlands can know the next battle plan of the US military. They must capture the enemy's commander to obtain the enemy's next plan. Of course, if he can find a
Commanders above lieutenant level can also imitate handwriting to write out the next battle plan in their notes.
Xia Yuan thought carefully and felt that the feasibility of this method was not very high. He still had to capture the enemy's next battle plan by grabbing the tongue of the US military.
Thinking about it, Xia Yuan yawned and decided to squint for a while to regain his energy and wait until tonight to take a look at the reconnaissance squad's action plan.
It got dark very quickly. Xia Yuan spread the mattress on the ground and slept on the ground. He slept very deeply. He had not had much rest in the time since he traveled back in time, and the quality of his sleep was not very good. The rest now is not good.
Just to make things better tonight.
At dinner time, Squad Leader Hu found Xia Yuan, woke him up, and took a bowl: "Eat something, we have to go out for action tonight, so we need to eat enough to have the strength to work."
Xia Yuan nodded: "Hey."
"Eat slowly."
Squad leader Hu looked at Xia Yuan who was devouring his food, sat next to him, and rolled a cigarette. "Scouts are more dangerous. You must pay attention to safety when performing tasks."
"Squad leader, don't worry, I will come back safely."
"Um."
After eating, Xia Yuan held his gun, greeted Squad Leader Hu, Deputy Squad Leader Li, and Platoon Leader Sun, and then found Company Commander Gao.
"Let's go, I'll take you there now."
Company Commander Gao put down the work at hand, took Xia Yuan to the position, and set off in the direction of Position 5. The soldiers he met while passing by all said hello: "Company Commander!"
Company Commander Gao led him to the tunnel of Position 5, "Old Zhou, Old Zhou, I brought you a new soldier, you know him."
Lao Zhou is a relatively thin soldier, he looks to be around 27 or 27 years old. He carries an American-made submachine gun on his back. Several soldiers around him also carry American-made submachine guns. When they see Company Commander Gao, they all stand up and look at him.
Xia Yuan stayed on his body.
Lao Zhou looked up and said, "Company Commander! Comrade Xia Yuan! You are here."
Captain Gao nodded: "Well, I'll leave him to you."
Lao Zhou sighed and looked at Xia Yuan, "Sit down first."
Xia Yuan found a seat and sat down, hugging his big eight pills. Captain Gao asked again: "Have you eaten yet? When are you ready to take action?"
"After eating, we will take action at nine o'clock tonight."
Lao Zhou replied, "But we have to go to the check-in point in advance. We may set off after dark."
"Okay, try not to waste time and take him with you as much as possible. He is still a new soldier and has only been on the battlefield once. The main purpose of taking him tonight is to see how you can conduct individual combat."
Captain Gao added: "Teach him more skills."
"Um."
Lao Zhou nodded.
Captain Gao simply said hello and left.
Lao Zhou said: "My name is Zhou Xuemin. You can call me Lao Zhou or Squad Leader Zhou."
Xia Yuan: "My name is Xia Yuan."
A very honest-looking soldier next to him said: "We know that you, the hero of the unknown highland raid, killed such an enemy for the first time on the battlefield. We admire you very much."
He added: "My name is Niu Chong, just call me Lao Niu. Our reconnaissance team doesn't have that many rules."
"Hey, you can just call me Xia Yuan."
After a simple chat, everyone quickly became familiar with each other. The soldiers all admired those who knew how to fight and were brave. The most despised were the cowards who were greedy for life and afraid of death. However, the soldiers were very tolerant of the new recruits. After all, they were
It also comes from that period.
However, Xia Yuan's bravery in the first battle was unanimously recognized by all the officers and soldiers of the Ninth Company. Many soldiers admired this recruit very much. In the battle on the unknown highland, he bombed the enemy with a grenade alone and did not dare to show his head.
The enemy's bunker misfired, buying time for the demolition comrades.
Many soldiers thought that they were very brave when they were on the battlefield for the first time and could kill the enemy without being frightened. However, they did not expect that there would be someone even more brave than them.
It also proves that some people are born to be soldiers.
It was getting dark, and Lao Zhou called all the soldiers in the reconnaissance squad to start discussing tonight's combat mission.
Lao Zhou spread out the combat map, illuminated it with a kerosene lamp, and said: "Recently, the US military has been moving frequently. After reconnaissance and platooning, it can be basically concluded that the US military is preparing to make some troubles. They used cars to pull soldiers away from Shangganling during the day.
, set off with a full truck and returned empty. At night, they drove the soldiers back again without turning on the lights the whole time, thinking they could fool us, but little did they know that our army could clearly control their every move."
"Our superiors gave us an order to capture a big tongue and come back to figure out the enemy's battle plan."
"yes!"
The soldiers of the reconnaissance squad whispered.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He clicked on a location on the map, "Cangshan Mountain at the northern foot of Xiagan Mountain. A company of US soldiers is stationed here. After investigation, it can be determined that the basic defense of this enemy is
, compared with the Korean army in the unknown highlands, a company of the US military has more than 200 people, equipped with light machine guns, heavy machine guns, anti-tank firepower and other heavy firepower, and built machine gun bunkers, machine gun bunkers and other important defenses. Both.
It's not of the same magnitude at all, our target is the US military in Cangshan."
"Now I will assign tasks. The first group will go up the mountain from the west side, the second group will go up the mountain from the east side, the third group will go up the mountain from the north side, and the fourth group will go up the mountain from the south side. Xia Yuan will follow me."
"yes!"
"Attention, once discovered by the enemy, retreat quickly."
"yes!"
"Pack up your equipment." Squad Leader Zhou turned around and looked at Xia Yuan: "It's your second time to go to the battlefield. Are you nervous?"
Xia Yuan shook his head: "I'm not nervous."
"Oh, it's pretty good. When I went to the battlefield for the first time, I was pulled up by the squad leader. The squad leader said that if you flinched the first time, you would want to flinch the second time or the third time."
Squad leader Zhou opened the ammunition box in the tunnel and stuffed the orange bullets into his bullet bag. As he stuffed them, he said, "If I could be as good as you were when you first went to the battlefield, then the squad leader wouldn't
I died."
He was a little sad.
The soldiers in the reconnaissance squad loaded bullets and grenades without saying a word. Each of their skin was dark and rough due to the wind and sun, but it was full of stories. Along the way, they experienced the Anti-Japanese War and the Liberation War, and were surrounded by many people.
I know how many familiar comrades-in-arms have left me one by one.
They can only turn the grief in their hearts into motivation to support them and keep moving forward.
Xia Yuan suddenly thought of the number '677', which was the number of his previous world. 677 was just a string of cold numbers, but behind this string of cold numbers, it represented 677 warriors.
"Do you need to replenish ammunition?" Squad Leader Zhou held a grenade, "I heard from the company commander that you are very good at throwing bombs, more accurate than a grenade. Bring more grenades."
"Why."
Xia Yuan nodded.
"You are using an American rifle. We don't have many bullets for the American rifles here. They are all in Tunnel No. 1. You are also a soldier over there. Did you replenish them when you came here?"
Monitor Zhou asked again.
Xia Yuan nodded: "I have three hundred rounds of bullets on my body, which is enough."
Squad Leader Zhou nodded without saying anything. He pulled out a few long strips of cloth from his arms and stuffed them into him: "Three hundred rounds of ammunition are too many and are inconvenient to carry. Fifty rounds are basically enough. Use cloth."
Tighten your body with strips to ensure that the weapons and ammunition on your body will not make any sound when walking."
Xia Yuan took the cloth strip and silently took out the bullets from his body, leaving fifty bullets on his body. He used the cloth strip to tighten his leggings and clothes, especially the grenade wrapped around his waist.
Squad leader Zhou added: "The grenade doesn't need to be tied so tightly. If you encounter an emergency and can't take it out, just tie it up a little to make sure it doesn't make a collision sound."
Xia Yuan nodded and learned again that going out for reconnaissance does not mean just setting off with a gun, it still requires a lot of preparation.
After simple preparations, the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad briefly moved around to ensure that the weapons and ammunition they carried would not make any sound. Squad Leader Zhou led the soldiers into the night in a hurry.
At the southern foot of the Five Sacred Mountains is Shangganling. There is a village of more than ten households in Shangganling. To the southwest of Shangganling is Xiaganling. There is also a village of more than ten households in Xiaganling. Cangshan is located in Xiaganling.
The Ganling area is much higher than the nameless highlands, but the mountains are not steep. The US military stationed here and built many fortifications.
After several nights of reconnaissance by the reconnaissance squad, they basically found out, removed the mines in the area they wanted to pass, and cut the enemy's barbed wire fence, leaving a place where they could pass.
After climbing up the mountain for an hour, we quickly crossed the highway. In a relatively lush weed, the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad were hiding. After observing the enemy's movements through the telescope, squad leader Zhou looked up at the sky.
"The moon is not very bright tonight. There are advantages and disadvantages. You must be careful when taking action, and do a good job in arranging. Don't be reckless if the arranging work is not done well."
Monitor Zhou patiently reminded: "This is the first time we have acted separately. The target of operating together is too big. If you catch the tongue, retreat immediately. If you can't catch it, it doesn't matter. Don't be stubborn. If it doesn't work in one night, just two nights."
"
"yes!"
After watching each combat team leave, Squad Leader Zhou turned to Xia Yuan and said: "When we take action, you follow me. We haven't figured out the enemy's secret sentry yet. Their position will change every night. When we take action, we will take action."
, still need to figure it out clearly.”
Only then did squad leader Zhou realize that Xia Yuan was lying motionless on the grass, observing the almost black Cangshan Mountain in the distance.
Seeing that he didn't move, Lao Niu patted Xia Yuan.
Xia Yuan turned around and his bright pupils shrank, "Squad Leader Zhou, I know where the enemy's secret whistle is."
Squad leader Zhou, Lao Niu and another soldier in action were all stunned.
Lao Niu asked in a somewhat honest and surprised way: "Xia Yuan, what are you talking about? Do you know the location of the enemy's secret sentry? How is this possible? We have been lining up for a few days, and you will know it when you come and take a look?"
Another soldier also had a strange expression, seeming to be skeptical of what Xia Yuan said.
Squad leader Zhou also didn't believe it, "This matter is not a joke. You have to know what will be the consequences once our actions are exposed? The enemy's secret sentry positions are erratic every night, and their numbers vary. It all depends on the enemy's mood. How many of them have we arranged?
All night, I didn’t figure out the location of the enemy’s fixed sentry posts. I just knew that there was no pattern in the arrangement of the enemy’s hidden sentry posts.”
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He looked at the dark Cangshan Mountain, which was nearly a kilometer away. When he looked through it with a telescope, he could only see the lights coming from the enemy tunnels and some machine guns.
The bunker, not to mention hidden sentries, and even the enemy's warning posts were not discovered much.
Xia Yuan actually said that he already knew the location of the enemy's hidden sentry, which made Squad Leader Zhou feel a little shocked.
This matter is no joke.
But Xia Yuan nodded with certainty, "I can guarantee with my life that the enemy's secret sentry has been observed by me, as well as the enemy's warning sentry."
He said: "Squad leader Zhou, if you don't believe it, you can follow what I said and observe. There is an enemy guard post about ten meters down between the two machine gun bunkers on the enemy's high ground. You should be able to see it."
Squad leader Zhou adjusted the telescope and lay down on the ground to observe. The enemy's two machine gun bunkers were on high ground. They were made of concrete and were more than ten meters apart. They could form a cross fire network down the mountain. These machine gun bunkers were almost touched by the soldiers of the reconnaissance squad.
Very thorough.
"Can you see the enemy's machine gun bunker?" Squad Leader Zhou's tone became a little surprised, even shocked. If nothing else, just seeing the enemy's machine gun bunker from here, we can basically conclude that this guy is real.
You can see the enemy's high ground situation.
You must know that this guy is a new recruit who was admitted to the court and fought in a battle. They don't think that the news was leaked when the reconnaissance squad visited the platoon. These actions were secret operations of the fourth platoon and combat missions secretly issued by Company Commander Gao.
Only their fourth platoon knew, but only that they knew that the reconnaissance squad performed a reconnaissance mission at night to catch the tongue, but where the reconnaissance was and where the tongue was caught, absolutely no one knew this. They didn't say it, and they didn't know.
No one would ask, not even the fourth platoon leader.
Lao Niu and another soldier Wu Haixin looked at Xia Yuan with ghostly expressions on their faces.
