Four trucks were loaded with medicines, and one truck was loaded with food, including not only canned lunches, canned breakfasts and canned dinners from the US military, but also squid, rice, seaweed, flour, kimchi from the Korean army, etc.
There are many kinds.
In addition to sending troops and hospital ships from various countries, Xiaori not only provides medical aid services, but also supports a lot of food for the US and South Korean troops.
It is normal for U.S. soldiers to feel nauseous after eating canned lunch meat. It is normal for them to change the taste.
However, the canned luncheon meat that the American soldiers made them want to eat was beyond the reach of the volunteer soldiers. They could only chew wild vegetables to fight the American soldiers.
The wounded in the division hospital had nothing to eat. The cooking soldiers in the hospital rinsed the American canned goods with hot water over and over again. They were not willing to let go of any oil and water. Such oil and water would be delicious when cooked with wild vegetables.
.
At this stage, the 180th Division had been out of food for several days.
Not even fried noodles or sorghum noodles.
"Send this batch of supplies to the hospital immediately. This batch of supplies is tightly sealed and can save the lives of many soldiers. As the war progresses, the number of wounded is increasing. This batch of medicines can be used in many places. The hospital's
We don’t have enough food, but these cans can last for a day or two.”
Master Zheng immediately arranged for the soldiers from the guard squad to drive away the supplies on the truck. He turned to look at Xia Yuan and said, "You have made great contributions again, but the account of withdrawing from the battlefield without authorization has not yet been settled with you.
.”
Xia Yuan chuckled: "Sir, the merits and demerits are equal to each other."
Master Zheng smiled and said: "You kid, if you do, then the merits and demerits will be equal to each other."
"yes!"
Xia Yuan immediately saluted, his expression immediately hesitant.
"What's wrong?"
Teacher Zheng asked curiously.
"Commander, it's like this. When I seized this batch of supplies, I touched the foreign enemy's position and even touched their rear."
"Um?"
Teacher Zheng looked at Xia Yuan a little surprised.
Chief of Staff Wang got out of the car, heard Xia Yuan's words, and said, "Do you have any information about the enemy?"
Xia Yuan thought for a while and said: "Division commander, chief of staff, actually it doesn't matter. The enemy has piled all the troops on the front line, which has created a more extreme situation, that is, there are many places with more troops, and there are fewer troops."
There are so few places.”
Chief of Staff Wang and Commander Zheng looked at each other and understood the meaning of what Xia Yuan said.
Chief of Staff Wang thought for a moment and said: "The enemy's troops are advancing forward, leaving their rear troops very empty."
Xia Yuan nodded: "That's right."
"Then I'm a little curious about how you drove out these ten trucks when the enemy blocked it."
On the way back, they walked and chatted. Chief of Staff Wang was very curious about how Xia Yuan acted.
"When you go back, tell us your actions in detail. Also, did you see the enemy's defense situation this time? Tell us what you saw."
"yes!"
Back at the division headquarters, Commander Zheng called his confidential secretary, took a pen and a notebook, and began to record Xia Yuan's actions.
Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Wang were sitting on the stools with their ears open.
"The enemy attacked our position. I couldn't stand it any longer, so I thought about leading them into enemy-occupied territory."
"Entering enemy-occupied territory is a very dangerous operation. Let alone a dozen or so people, if a company passes through, the entire army may be destroyed if the enemy discovers it. Your idea is wrong."
Chief of Staff Wang thought for a moment, shook his head and said.
Xia Yuan thought about it and said seriously: "Chief of Staff, you all know this, and the enemy must also know it. Just because the enemy knows it, the enemy concludes that we dare not charge and can only hold on."
"Do the opposite."
Commander Zheng took out a cigarette and handed it to Chief of Staff Wang, signaling him to stop talking. He gave another cigarette to Xia Yuan and said, "Continue talking."
"Thank you, sir."
Xia Yuan put the cigarette to his mouth a little flattered, took out a match from his pocket, struck a match and put it in front of his mouth, and took a puff. It was stronger than the foreign devil's cigarette, just like liquor of different degrees.
"This boy."
Seeing that Xia Yuan was not restrained at all, Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Wang smiled.
After receiving the order to defend on the spot for three to five days, a layer of lingering haze hung over the 180th Division headquarters. Xia Yuan brought five trucks of supplies to dispel part of the haze.
"Teacher, let me continue."
"Say it."
Master Zheng lit a cigarette and held it in his hand.
Xia Yuan continued: "Just like what the division commander said, we did the opposite. The enemy knew that we would not go, so they naturally relaxed their vigilance. After the reinforcements from the 539th Regiment arrived, we took the rest of the company with us.
The thirteen soldiers put on the clothes of the foreign devils and set off. It was still raining when they left. The foreign devils' ponchos were draped on their bodies, like ghosts in the mountains, invisible. The enemy placed many checkpoints on the road and on the top of the mountain.
There are also US military searchlights.”
"But this does give us a chance. It's too dark and it's a rainy night, so when the enemy's searchlight shines over, the road is completely white. As long as we stay still, the enemy won't be able to spot it unless we look carefully.
We took advantage of the gap between the enemy's searchlights and crossed the highway."
"Is it that simple?"
Mr. Zheng was a little surprised.
"Commander, it's actually much simpler than what I said. The vigilance of the foreign devils is so poor. As long as they don't go to the US military station, it is difficult for the foreign devils to detect more than a dozen people. In addition, it is raining, and the visibility is even lower.
.”
After thinking about it, Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Wang believed that the method mentioned by Xia Yuan was feasible. There were more than a dozen soldiers, the target was very small, and the enemy's searchlights were set up on the mountain. Although the lighting area was increased, the light was actually shining on
On the road, there was already insufficient light and it was completely white, making it even more difficult to spot.
"Keep talking."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Mr. Zheng took a puff of cigarette, the smoke was thick, and it was impossible to tell what Mr. Zheng was thinking.
"In this way, we passed through the enemy's front line defense area through the highway. The enemy's station was a circular defensive position. During the second battle, when fighting the First Marine Division, the enemy adopted this kind of circular defensive position. The enemy also considered
We thought we might take advantage of the rainy night to launch a sneak attack, so we narrowed down their base, which resulted in gaps between the enemy's bases."
Xia Yuan said and couldn't help but smile: "Maybe it has something to do with my sneak attacks on the foreign Japanese camps a few times before. That's also possible."
"hehe."
Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Wang smiled.
Commander Zheng said: "You also know about the second battle, and even the defensive posture adopted by the foreign devils."
"During the war to resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, the whole country knew about it, and the newspapers were all over the place. If you read the newspapers, you can guess a little bit."
Of course, these things cannot be revealed.
This is your own secret.
"I can tell this from the newspaper. You are also a smart person. Why haven't I heard of you in the 180th Division before? It stands to reason that a smart person like you should have become famous by now."
Chief of Staff Wang asked very curiously.
Such smart warriors are really rare, but it happened that when I was in China, I had never heard of Xia Yuan's name after fighting for such a long time.
"Maybe it's because I got enlightened recently."
Xia Yuan said with a smile.
Chief of Staff Wang and Commander Zheng did not speak.
Xia Yuan changed the topic and continued: "The wider the junction, the greater our chance, so we took advantage of the moonlight to pass through. We touched the enemy's rear and soon discovered the enemy's
I asked the second platoon leader of our company and a combat group of soldiers to keep an eye on a small road. I led them to continue to explore the back. Along the way, I found that the enemy had US military defenses except for a few important highlands.
In addition, there were no American troops on some hills, so I concluded that the American troops in the rear must be very empty."
"Continuing to move forward, we came to a road with a lot of convoys. My original plan was to take the foreign enemy's wire and bury it on the road, blow up the tires of the US military, and then seize a large amount of supplies.
"
In fact, this was Xia Yuan's original plan. He was not sure that he could change the situation of the war with more than a dozen soldiers, but he could lead them to live a good life as guerrillas, specifically harassing the foreign devils' transportation routes from behind and attacking at will.
When a truck gets off the truck, a large amount of food, ammunition and medicine can be seized.
But the plan changed midway. I wanted to blow up the enemy's artillery position, but something went wrong again halfway.
"Then I took them to the high ground closest to the road. I first destroyed the enemy's communication and made them lose contact. Only when the enemy's communication is destroyed, will the enemy believe the fact that we are coming. I asked the instructor
Lead people to ambush in the direction of the high ground, and use the extinguishing of the light bulb as a signal. As long as the lights on the enemy's position go out, fire at the enemy's position..."
Xia Yuan simply told the division commander and chief of staff the plan for the operation, and both of them felt incredible after hearing it.
Destroying the enemy's communications can actually attract long-range artillery fire. In fact, the instructor led a company of soldiers to add fuel to the fire, making the enemy mistakenly think that the volunteers had occupied the position, especially the appearance of mortars, and our army's equipment
There are not many troops with a large number of mortars. They are either important companies or artillery groups.
Most of the time, it was the main force, so when the mortars were fired, the enemy panicked. With Xia Yuan fanning the flames in his ears, the US military commander issued an order to seek long-range artillery support.
"The most important thing is that these foreign devils all long for comfort."
"How do you say this?"
Chief of Staff Wang and Commander Zheng looked at each other.
Xia Yuan said with a smile: "The US military is quite strange. It is similar to the Chinese army. Many soldiers who go to the battlefield are not voluntary. When US soldiers charge, there are supervisory teams watching behind them. If they see anyone wanting to turn around,
Any American troops who escape will be shot and killed. Division commander and chief of staff, do you think such a unit can win the battle?"
Commander Zheng shook his head and said: "The troops who need the supervision of the war team are the most vulnerable. Unfortunately, this period is different from when we fought the reactionaries. When we fought the reactionaries, many people did not want to fight with us, and they also had guns pointed at their heads.
Even at night, many reactionaries came to our positions and surrendered."
Chief of Staff Wang said: "It's better to speak the same language. We are all Chinese. Once we talk here, the morale of the military there will be shaken."
"Yes, so if the US military wants to win the war, it must rely on their firepower."
Commander Zheng smoked a cigarette and said with a smile: "He is indeed a hero fighting the US military on the front line. This observation is very intuitive, but is it any different from your plan?"
Xia Yuandao: "Commander, you don't know something. No one wants to go to the front line. They are all afraid of death. After all, it is different from World War II. During World War II, the US military fought well, but it was with hatred of family and country. Now they are invading."
The mentality of the soldiers is different, and life is getting better and better. Many people are greedy for comfort. Many soldiers who came to the Korean battlefield were deceived and wanted to finish the war quickly and go home quickly."
"After all, the United States suffered a lot of casualties during World War II, and now it is engaged in aggression. The more people who are greedy for life and afraid of death, the easier it is to panic when faced with emergencies. Plus, I am fanning the flames. You think this Yankee
Can the commander make the right choice?"
Xia Yuan said and sighed again, "We just haven't captured any useful information from the foreign devils."
Commander Zheng and Chief of Staff Wang laughed.
"Smart, adaptable, and seized eleven trucks of supplies. It's amazing. When I was your age, I was just an ordinary soldier, but you can make a fuss about the psychology of the US military. Not bad, not bad, now like you
There are too few commanders and fighters who are good at thinking and adapting to changes, so I feel that having you become a company commander is a bit of an understatement."
Master Zheng was in a good mood, and the gloom had dissipated a lot. After listening to Xia Yuan's story, he had a new understanding of the commander of the sharp knife company in front of him.
He is capable of both literary and martial arts.
To be honest, Commander Zheng almost wanted to keep him at the division headquarters, but such a soldier is obviously more suitable for the front line.
After thinking about it, Commander Zheng already had the idea of waiting until the battle was over to promote Xia Yuan to battalion commander.
suddenly.
Bang bang bang!
There was a burst of noisy gunfire from a very far away place, followed by loud gunfire, which was also mixed with the sound of our volunteer army’s Soviet-made PPS submachine gun. Everyone in the division headquarters stood up in shock. Everyone present
Everyone heard the gunshots coming from outside.
Xia Yuan reacted faster and said immediately: "Sir, I will take a company to have a look."
Mr. Zheng said: "Don't worry, Lao Duan went to see him. He brought the security squad. There is no problem. You must be tired from running around all the way. Xiao Li, you go and take Comrade Xia Yuan and arrange a meeting for them."
A place to rest, let them have a good rest."
"yes!"
A government cadre on the side responded, "Comrade Xia Yuan, follow me."
