Wang Xiaoliang searched around and found only some empty cans, but never found the others. It was not easy to find this box of breakfast cans.
Ma Daguo scolded: "Are these foreign devils not even bringing food with them when they come out to fight?"
Xia Yuan shook his head: "I'm just afraid that if you beat them to death, you can still seize food from them."
Wang Xiaoliang said: "It's okay, we still have fried noodles."
Xia Yuan finished smoking a cigarette, took out three cigarettes from the cigarette case, carefully put them in his pocket, and handed the remaining cigarettes to Ma Daguo, "Take it and smoke it, let's go, go clean the battlefield, and then
It will be dawn in a few hours, and we don’t know what enemies we will encounter next.”
The harvest from this battle is average, mostly guns and ammunition. Soldiers generally do not change the guns and ammunition of the US military. They carry enough bullets and submachine guns with them. Generally speaking, they rarely change guns unless they carry them with them.
All the bullets were fired.
Most of the weapons and ammunition seized were large bullets, carbines and Thompson submachine guns. Due to the war with the US military, such bullets are relatively easy to replenish, but the US military does not have too many bullets, especially since the US military itself is also consuming, even if
If you beat them to death, the number of bullets that can be taken from a US military corpse is very limited. It is better to replenish the ammunition as you want from the rear.
In addition to the captured guns and ammunition, there are also three US military Super Bazookas. In addition to the blown-up mortars, there are still two intact ones, three mortar shells, and two M1919A4s. Configuration
There are tripods and four Browning light machine guns. A lot of these things have been captured. A lot of them have been captured in previous battles, and now some more have been captured. Although the number of the first battalion has been reduced sharply, the weapons and equipment are still there.
, but as the battle progresses, it becomes richer and richer. As far as the current situation is concerned, it is equipped with two M1919A4 heavy machine guns and three Browning light machine guns. Other companies are also equipped with heavy machine guns and light machine guns. The firepower
I don’t know how much the suppression has improved compared to when we entered the DPRK.
After cleaning the battlefield, the soldiers carried long guns and short cannons and returned to the battalion headquarters. Their battalion headquarters was in a mountain valley. The dense woods became their natural barrier, making it difficult for them to be discovered by US military aircraft during the day.
.
The arrival of the 1st Company alarmed the 2nd and 3rd Companies who were resting. The previous encounters were fought by the 2nd and 3rd Companies, resulting in heavy casualties. The US troops retreated in an orderly manner, covered by aircraft and artillery, and there were US troops on the way back.
The self-propelled anti-aircraft machine gun truck served as cover, causing huge casualties to the pursuing volunteer soldiers. The second and third companies that blocked the attack also suffered heavy casualties.
The first company was responsible for this crucial task.
The victorious return of the first company greatly increased the morale of the soldiers of the first battalion.
The company commander and instructors all went to the meeting, leaving only the platoon leader responsible for leading his team. They stepped forward and praised him one after another.
"Your company's offensive battle was really beautiful. The position of a U.S. company was defeated so easily, and so many guns were captured."
Looking at the long guns and short cannons carried by the soldiers of the first company, they were not to mention how envious they were. Such a great victory did not happen every time. Many soldiers were sacrificed in every tough battle. Continuous battles made the second company
Both the company and the third company suffered varying degrees of casualties, but the first company only made huge sacrifices when attacking three highlands at the beginning of the second phase on the 16th, and only one or two sacrifices were made in subsequent battles.
Especially when attacking enemy tanks, it was able to destroy ten US tanks with zero casualties, which was almost a miracle.
"The Sharp Sword Company is indeed a Sharp Sword Company. Fighting against difficulties is like drinking water."
"I heard from the comrades of the First Company that a row of spears from the First Company are very accurate and can kill enemies hiding in bunkers."
"It would be great if we had such shooting skills. It would be easier to fight against the Japanese bunkers."
Xia Yuan stepped forward and said: "The American soldiers are on the run. Their soldiers basically have no desire to fight. After we penetrated their butts, they themselves became chaotic."
Big Man Ma spat and said, "The foreign devils are just paper tigers. They will break into pieces as soon as they are beaten. All the American devils we encountered along the way are running away, but we cannot catch up with them."
"They are driving a car. We can't catch up with our two legs."
Chen Lie brought the confiscated cans to the hospital and then came over. Everyone gathered together for a small meeting. After a while, the meeting at the battalion headquarters ended and they were about to leave again. Xia Yuan thought they were going to continue to the tunnel.
Go deeper into the valley. If you continue to go deeper into Tonggu, you will probably reach the eastern front. The eastern front is the main target of the Volunteer Army's attack in the second phase. Its target is Syngman Rhee's five divisions. Now they have been beaten to a crawl and are basically gone.
What resistance.
They are too far behind the U.S. military. Without dad's care, they are like a piece of loose sand that will break into pieces at a touch.
Unexpectedly, the new transfer order was for them to go to the front line of the 180th Division to exchange with the Second Battalion.
Company Commander Lei said: "The mission of the Second Battalion is to attack Highland 336, but a U.S. battalion is stationed on Highland 336 to guard the road. If 336 cannot be captured, the U.S. reinforcements will be able to pass kilometers to the eastern front. We must capture it.
336, and set up defenses on Highland 336 to block the reinforcing U.S. troops."
Xia Yuan's brain began to spin, but he could never find this mission node. There were very few things left by the 180th Division, not much. He only knew that the combat mission of the 180th Division was to stick to the center line and block the US military, but the US military also realized that
If you want to reinforce the eastern front, you need to pass through the defense line of the 180th Division.
"The second battalion can't take down Hill 336, so we have to send our first battalion up!"
Xia Yuan immediately realized the reason for this order. On the evening of the 16th, they fought a beautiful offensive battle and broke through three enemy highlands. It was for this reason that the division headquarters sent them to attack.
336. Otherwise, if the Second Battalion attacked 336 with a strong attack, it would probably suffer huge casualties.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! The order was issued, and considering the time constraints, the first battalion had no time to do more repairs, so it carried enough weapons and ammunition and marched to the second battalion's defense area. The weapons and equipment that could not be taken away were
Hidden in this mountain col, the plan is to wait until the war is over before coming back to get it.
The third company and the third platoon are responsible for escorting the wounded and the weapons and ammunition that can be taken away, and the other units go first.
The weather in North Korea in May is still a bit cold, the temperature has not risen much, and the soil on the ground is still frozen solid. The soldiers of the first battalion are walking through the woods carrying guns and ammunition, and started setting off at three o'clock this morning.
, marching urgently to twelve o'clock, there are only a dozen kilometers left from Highland 336. The Second Battalion has also moved towards Tongguli. They will cooperate with the Second Battalion of the 539th Regiment to occupy the area around Tongguli.
Getting closer and closer to the front line, they could already hear the sound of artillery fire, and there were some sporadic artillery fires all around them. The impact points were all far away from the team. They were all cold guns, and the marching team didn't pay attention.
Ma Daguo listened to the sound of the cannonballs sliding in the air and said: "The enemy who fired the cannon is more than ten kilometers away from us."
Long-range artillery is all cold artillery. The veterans are very experienced. Based on the sound produced by the shells sliding in the air, they can basically judge the distance and distance. Therefore, everyone has not lie down to take cover yet. That is because they have already
It was judged that the enemy who fired the cannon was far away from them.
Xia Yuan listened carefully, and heard a sharp whistling sound in his ears. A cannonball slid in the air for about ten seconds, and exploded in the distant mountains and forests with a roar. It merged with the original body's memory, and naturally
It is integrated with the original combat experience. Although the soldiers do not know the initial speed of the American howitzer, they can basically know that the general speed of the gun is between 500 meters and 700 meters, and the smoothbore time in the air is about ten dozen
seconds, so this enemy group was only ten kilometers away from them.
After a little calculation, it is not difficult to figure out the distance of this US artillery force from them.
In the queue, Wang Xiaoliang looked at the sky from time to time. The white smoke produced by the US military howitzer shells sliding past was a bit interesting, but he kept looking up like this, walking a little absent-mindedly, and the soldiers behind him always stepped on his feet.
Finally, the soldier behind him couldn't help but said: "Little Wang, are you done? Look at me, you've been looking at me a few times now, and it's hard for you to walk."
Wang Xiaoliang said: "I'm just wondering, why do the Americans have so many artillery shells? They fire them endlessly. What's the point of firing them randomly even if they don't have a target?"
The soldier said: "You don't know this. Americans are rich, so artillery shells are naturally free of charge. They run around a lot, and they still bombard them even if there is no one around. Otherwise, how can they appear to be rich?"
Monitor Tan Zhanbiao said: "Okay, hurry up, we'll be there soon."
As soon as he finished speaking, a shell exploded next to him. Everyone fell down. Tan Zhanbiao shouted: "Spread out quickly, there are enemies in front. This is not a howitzer, but a mortar!"
The enemy fired a series of scattered artillery shells, which exploded around the team, and the soil was rolled up and flew high.
Hearing this unusual bombardment, Xia Yuan turned on his night vision and quickly looked around. The sound came from the mountains in the distance. With the help of his eagle eye, he saw a high ground in their five o'clock direction.
There is about a platoon of US troops ambushed above. The fortifications are completed on a hillside. There is a heavy machine gun group below the high ground to protect the US troops above.
A platoon of about thirty-six American troops had three mortars installed. They stayed here for two days. Now that they saw the volunteer army, they hurriedly opened fire.
Near the mortar, two people opened wooden boxes one by one, which were all filled with mortars painted green. One of them was an officer, probably the platoon leader. He was observing the volunteer army with a telescope.
Then he gestured with his arms to ask the gunner to adjust his position and fire again. At the same time, the underground machine gun team was also ready. They were wiping the barrels at this time. They also knew that the group coming was the Chinese army.
Don't dare to relax.
"Ready to fight!"
Xia Yuan shouted, raised his gun, aimed at the enemy on the mountain, pulled the trigger, and the bullets shot out, hitting the American platoon leader, and he fell to the ground.
The platoon that received Xia Yuan's order was preparing to fight. Suddenly, artillery shells fell one by one around them. The booming explosion sounded like it was about to overturn the mountain, swinging left and right. The soldiers lay down one after another.
On the ground.
The soldier who was talking to Wang Xiaoliang just now was unfortunately hit by a shell. His rifle flew more than two meters away. His cotton clothes were completely torn, revealing dark cotton. A large piece of shrapnel penetrated his abdomen, and there was blood.
It immediately soaked through the cotton clothes on my body.
Wang Xiaoliang was right next to him. When he saw the soldier who was knocked down by the bomb, his eyelids jumped wildly. He immediately ran over and took out a piece of cloth from his pocket to hold his stomach. "Brother, it doesn't matter, hold on."
With this press, more blood flowed out, and the piece of cloth and his hand were immediately stained red with sticky blood.
He seemed to want to speak, but his voice was very low. Wang Xiaoliang turned his ear to listen. The sound of mortar shells sliding in the sky was getting closer and closer...
"Again...the shells are coming again, hurry up, hurry up and take cover,"
However, it was too late to hide now. The soldier had already heard the sound of artillery shells approaching. He used the last strength of his body to kick Wang Xiaoliang aside.
The shell exploded at this location. When Wang Xiaoliang got up and crawled over, there was only the piece of blood cloth he had used to stop the bleeding and a pool of blood... Tears flowed from Wang Xiaoliang's eyes, and he squatted there stupidly.
He looked and didn't move. He had just stopped the brother's bleeding, but now the brother was blown up by the enemy's shells and no body was left behind.
This moment of separation between life and death is undoubtedly the cruelest, and it is difficult for ordinary people to accept it. Two soldiers ran over and pulled him up: "Little man, get up quickly and let's go!"
Wang Xiaoliang was still looking back at the bloody cloth, looking very dumb. Seeing this, squad leader Tan Zhanbiao immediately ran to Wang Xiaoliang, slapped him with his hand, and said: "Wake up quickly, he has been sacrificed, I want to give him
To take revenge, pick up a gun and fight against the foreign devils!"
Wang Xiaoliang calmed down, clutched the gun in his hand tightly, and wiped away his tears: "Squad leader, I want to avenge him!"
"This is right, this is like a warrior!"
Tan Zhanbiao praised.
Xia Yuan, with his big horse and the soldiers from the first and second platoons, had already rushed towards the enemy's high ground. The enemy's machine gun rang out, and a string of bullets shot into the ground, causing the soil to fly up.
Six soldiers were knocked down by the enemy's machine gun. Everyone was suppressed by a machine gun and could not lift their heads. The enemy's artillery was on the reverse slope, condescending.
Captain Lei shouted: "This highland is 336. Be careful of other American troops. We cannot be pinned down by them here. Xia Yuan, you stay here with a squad of people. The others will withdraw immediately. We have to leave from
Attack from other directions!"
At this moment, the sound of enemy artillery and machine gunfire came from the front.
The Second and Third Companies of the First Battalion collided with the US troops on Hill 336.
