Chapter 27: When the enemy advances, we retreat; when the enemy retreats, we fight!

"Company Commander, why do you want us to withdraw to the tunnel? Don't we hold our position?" Squad Leader Hu found Company Commander Gao.

"Squad leader, the enemy's attack is too fierce, it is difficult for us to defend the position, and the artillery in the rear cannot be accurately positioned because the smoke on the position is too thick. We only need to let the enemy into our position, and then let our artillery

Just fire at our position."

Captain Gao said patiently: "The ammunition on your body is almost exhausted. Now go and replenish it. When the round of shelling is over, we will rush out of the tunnel and drive the enemy out of our position in one fell swoop!"

Squad leader Hu's eyes lit up, "Okay! Let them also have a taste of being bombarded by artillery shells!"

"right!"

Squad leader Hu suddenly remembered something: "Company commander, why didn't you see the instructor?"

The smile on Captain Gao's face disappeared and he sat in front of the box in silence.

The soldiers who came down from the position also fell silent.

"On the way back to the tunnel, Instructor Lin was hit by an enemy shell and died." Company Commander Gao took out a shoe stained with black blood from his arms and held it with his hand. He had been working with Instructor Lin for seven years.

For eight years, from the Anti-Japanese War to the Liberation War, I was used to having Instructor Lin by my side. When he suddenly left, Company Commander Gao felt uncomfortable.

He put away his shoes and his eyes immediately became firm: "There is no way to fight without sacrifice. There are casualties on our side, and the casualties on the foreign devils' side are even greater. First squad leader, immediately organize the soldiers who can take action and replenish ammunition!"

Captain Gao glanced at the tunnel: "Where is the second squad leader?"

A soldier from the second squad had a choked voice: "Company commander, the second squad leader also died. He was hit by an enemy shell and his lower body was broken off. The squad leader didn't tell us that when we saw him, he had already died."

"Where's the deputy monitor?"

"Also sacrificed."

"The second squad leader, like all the sacrificed soldiers, died with glory and greatness! They dedicated their lives to the motherland, and we must always be ready to contribute to the motherland! Comrades, the more we come to this

When the time comes, the less we can let go of the chain!”

Captain Gao picked up the gun on the table and said, "Quickly replenish the ammunition. When Wang Yongmeng comes back, we will immediately notify the artillery in the rear to bomb the foreign Japanese occupying the surface of the position! As soon as the bombing is over, we will quickly organize a counterattack!"

"yes!"

Company Commander Gao walked up to Xia Yuan: "Comrade Xia Yuan, the organization has decided that from today on, you will be the squad leader of the second squad. Do you understand?"

Xia Yuan was stunned for a moment, then reacted and saluted: "Yes!"

The remaining soldiers of the second squad looked at Xia Yuan with admiration in their eyes.

Lao Hu shouted happily: "Second squad leader!"

Xia Yuan smiled and said: "Old squad leader, no matter whether I am the second squad leader or not, I am your soldier, and you are still my old squad leader."

"Okay, go and resupply ammunition."

During the supply of ammunition, Company Commander Gao told the soldiers in the tunnel about the appointment of Comrade Xia Yuan as the second squad leader. The soldiers applauded happily. They approved of Xia Yuan becoming the second squad leader with both hands and did not

There is no one more suitable to be the second squad leader than Xia Yuan.

After a fierce battle, only five people were left in the first squad, and only four were left in the second squad. Including the company commander and the correspondent, there were only ten soldiers left in the No. 1 tunnel who could fight.

After replenishing ammunition, Captain Gao led nine people in the tunnel to issue the final combat order.

"After the shelling is over and the position is captured, each person carries a box of grenades, bullets, and blasting tubes. The first squad is responsible for holding the left side of the forward position, and the second squad is responsible for holding the right side of the forward position. No. 3 on the main peak

The position has not been lost yet. If the pressure on their side is low, they will provide fire reinforcements to our No. 1 position."

Company Commander Gao quickly made arrangements, "Second Squad Leader."

"Here!" Xia Yuan squatted on the ground.

"Bring two more boxes of grenades. Your bomb-dropping ability is our most effective means of attacking the enemy. The forward position on the right is more prominent, and you will face many more enemies than the ones on the left. The pressure on you is also very high.

"

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!"

"Go and get ready."

Xia Yuan summoned the only three soldiers left in the second squad and assigned the task to them, "Comrade Sun Gong still stays with me to help me refill the ammunition. You two, each have a 50 punch and a large 8-pellet

, change it, the failure rate of 50 punch is too high, don’t force it if it doesn’t work, change it to eight larger ones, what we have to do is to eliminate a large number of the enemy’s effective forces and push the enemy back!”

"Be sure to pay attention to the trench underneath you. If it's short, repair it immediately. Dig as diagonally as possible. Don't be afraid of being buried. At least you won't be hit by cannonballs."

The three of them nodded and squatted on the ground, listening to Xia Yuan's words and nodding their heads.

Squad leader Hu was also making the final arrangements before the war, knocking down the enemy, retaking their positions, and holding on until nightfall so that the enemy would not attack, and the day was finally over.

Comrade Wang Yongmeng came back soon. He returned to the tunnel panting, "Report to the company commander, the squad and platoon leaders in each position have been notified."

"Okay!" Captain Gao stood up, listening to the gradually weakening sound of artillery overhead, and said: "The foreign enemy's artillery has spread forward. As long as there is no sound of artillery overhead, it means that the enemy has occupied the high ground."

In the tunnel, the injured soldiers were still pressing bullets, while the seriously injured soldiers took a good rest under the orders of Company Commander Gao.

The enemy's artillery fire has blocked the rear area. In order to block the enemy's support to Shangganling, the enemy dispatched 300 aircraft to bomb and straf the entire rear logistics force of our army.

Xia Yuan has also realized that the transition to tunnel fighting may be earlier than in history, and his own well has not yet dug out water. The main reason is that the internal environment of the tunnel is complex, mostly rock walls, which are difficult to drill through and require a lot of money.

time.

Holding his gun, he sat at the entrance of the tunnel leading to the position, thinking constantly in his mind.

Soldiers from the first and second squads gathered here to prevent the enemy from suddenly attacking from the entrance of the tunnel.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lao Hu held the gun and looked above his head with his dark face: "The enemy's bombardment has passed."

They were in the tunnel, and they could clearly feel that the dense artillery bombardment above their heads suddenly weakened a lot. This meant that the enemy's bombardment of the surface of the Shangganling position continued to advance as the enemy infantry continued to advance, and the artillery fire extended from above their heads to behind them.

.

Lao Li tightly touched the gun in his arms and said: "The enemy will come up soon."

At the forward position, the U.S. military, which had been attacking for a whole morning, finally set foot on Shangganling, which had been bombarded by artillery fire and could not see any fortifications. Instead, it was a scorched earth. Thick fog filled the air, gunpowder smoke was everywhere, and the vegetation was ignited.

There were no corpses visible on the position, most of them had been blown to pieces by artillery fire, and the originally hard rocky surface had also been blown into small stones.

The U.S. military bent down and carefully boarded the forward position of Position No. 1. After confirming that there were no enemies, a large number of U.S. troops quickly attacked, occupied the favorable terrain, and quickly built fortifications. Soon they discovered our army's Position No. 1.

The front tunnel.

They threw grenades into the tunnel, and with a huge explosion, smoke suddenly filled the inside of the tunnel. When digging the tunnel, a pit was dug downward at the entrance of the tunnel, so that if the enemy's grenades were thrown in, they would eventually fall out.

If it goes into a pit, it will not be thrown into the tunnel.

After the explosions, the US military sent two soldiers holding guns and cautiously approaching the entrance of the tunnel.

Wang Yongmeng, who was looking at the entrance of the tunnel, immediately fired back with a gun. After killing one person, another American soldier yelled and ran out of the tunnel entrance while rolling and crawling.

"The enemy is upon us!"

Wang Yongmeng put away his gun and quickly ran to the rear. Company Commander Gao, who had already been waiting for the majority, immediately picked up the phone on the table and said: "Commander, the enemy has occupied our army's surface position and can carry out artillery attacks."

!”

I only heard the sound of "fire" from the other side of the phone, and then, from the volunteer army's rear position, artillery shells with white tail flames streaked across the sky, tearing the sky and falling to Shangganling. The shells landed on the surface of Shangganling.

The position was in bloom. Not long after occupying Shangganling, the American troops encountered enemy artillery fire. Before the bench under their buttocks was warm, they were blown away by the artillery shells and rolled and crawled towards the rear.

Wang Yongmeng observed the enemy and immediately told Company Commander Gao about the enemy's retreat. Company Commander Gao took the phone and shouted: "Commander, ask the artillery to extend the artillery forward, we can't let them leave so easily!"

"Order! Let the artillery gradually extend the artillery forward. The enemies in Shangganling have begun to retreat!"

"yes!"

As the U.S. military retreated from its surface positions in Shangganling, our army's artillery fire began to extend forward, chasing the enemy and causing huge casualties to the enemy.

When our army's artillery fire extended past, the volunteer soldiers quickly emerged from the tunnel and launched an attack on the remaining US troops on the position.

Lao Hu took the lead, holding a submachine gun and shooting at the foreign devils he could see. He shouted: "Comrades! Charge with me! Drive away the foreign devils and regain the position!"

Lao Li and others rushed out of the tunnel with their guns in hand and dispersed around Position No. 1. Xia Yuan fired at the foreign Japanese who could be seen in sight, and quickly ordered the soldiers of the second squad to touch the bullets on the enemy's corpses.

They will not carry many things, a rifle, some bullets and some grenades. They will not carry anything else except weapons and ammunition.

Xia Yuan quickly approached a foreign soldier whose legs were blown off. The foreign soldier clasped his hands and looked at Xia Yuan pleadingly, with a face full of blood and a look of begging for mercy. What greeted him was a cold bullet.

He put away all the guns on the foreign devils, took away the bullet bags and grenades from them, and quickly raised his head to look ahead.

Our army's bombardment has stopped. The enemy abandoned position No. 1 and retreated down the mountain at a rapid speed, leaving more than thirty corpses on the position.

Company Commander Gao quickly shouted: "According to the plan, build fortifications immediately!"

He found Xia Yuan and planned to guard the right side with the second squad. Xia Yuan said: "Company commander, you are the commander of the whole company, you can't go!"

Company Commander Gao said: "Your second squadron is small in number and is under great pressure. I am here to assist you and just form a combat team with them! Neither you nor I can bear the responsibility of losing our position!"

He turned around and said in a tone that could not be refused: "This is an order!"

The right side is a more prominent forward position, and the slope on the right side is gentler, making it easy to attack and difficult to defend. The previous second squad was here and suffered huge casualties to defend the right position. The deputy squad leader and squad leader are both here.

sacrifice.

Xia Yuan didn't say anything anymore and led his men to immediately build fortifications here. Sun Gong carried five guns, four blasting tubes, and half a box of grenades.

Others basically carried a box of grenades for Xia Yuan. After arriving on the right side, they searched for favorable terrain, used engineer shovels to dig trenches, and took up the forward position on the construction site. Five people occupied more than 200 square meters of the right forward position.

And dug a personal bunker.

Just after they dug the trench, the enemy's artillery fire came again, and there was a harsh roar in the sky, accompanied by the roar of aircraft engines.

Xia Yuan squatted in the trench, looking at the smoke-filled sky. US military planes appeared again in the sky of Shangganling. Behind him, a new round of enemy bombardment arrived. With constant roars, the enemy planes dropped bombs.

artillery shells and napalm bombs.

In just a moment, the entire No. 1 position turned into a sea of ​​flames. The two of them were hiding in the trench. The shock wave of the napalm bomb explosion above them continued to spread, rolling up a large amount of sand and rocks, followed by a heat wave from above.

, in an instant, the position was covered in flames.

The flames of napalm bombs kept rolling, and black smoke enveloped the sky above Shangganling. It was obviously a clear day, but at this moment, Shangganling seemed like the eve of a storm.

The heat wave baked the flesh on his cheeks, and the pungent smell of gasoline mixed with the smell of gunpowder filled his mouth and nose. Xia Yuan covered his mouth and nose with his sleeves, crouched in the trench, clutched the gun in his hand, and reached out to pat the gun off his head.

Tu, cautiously sticking his head out, his sight was basically blocked by thick black smoke, and there were flames everywhere he looked.

The enemy hadn't attacked yet, and the bombardment was still going on. The soil just knocked off the top of the head was buried again soon. The dug trench had been filled with soil and shell fragments, and was submerged up to the knees.

"Dig out the grenade!"

Xia Yuan withdrew his gaze, took off the engineering shovel behind him, shoveled away the soil under him, and consolidated the bunker in front. He had just found the grenade box, and with the help of the spreading smoke, he saw the enemies all over the mountains and plains from a distance were once again attacking 597.9

The high ground rushed up.

"Coming up, coming up! The enemy is coming up!"

Xia Yuan immediately shouted and said to Sun Gong who was digging a trench next to him, "You dig a trench!"

On the hillside, there were enemy corpses everywhere. I had never seen so many corpses before. When the shells exploded, what was rolled up was not soil, but soil stained with blood, soil mixed with internal organs, and soil mixed with flesh and blood.

Along with the bombardment, the enemy stepped on the corpses of their companions, stepped on the ground stained black and red with blood, stepped on the scattered minced meat and internal organs, and launched a fierce attack on the 597.9 Highland.

Xia Yuan has seen such a penetrating scene before.

This is the cruelty of war.
