Walking out of the division headquarters, the sound of gunfire became more obvious. It came from the west of them. As the 63rd Army retreated, the defense line suddenly became vacated. The enemy sent many reconnaissance troops to investigate here. The division headquarters might be exposed.
risk.
Comrade Xiao Li listened to the gunshots and said: "The comrades in the reconnaissance squad collided with the enemy. That's not right. I heard from the division commander that the west is the defense line of the 63rd Army. How could the enemy appear?"
"If the 63rd Army retreats, won't enemies appear?"
Xia Yuan moved his ears. The gunfire was noisy and the battle was fierce. Judging from the gunfire, the number of enemies was about one platoon.
Comrade Xiao Li said "Ah" and asked a little surprised: "Comrade Xia Yuan, you mean the 63rd Army retreated?"
Xia Yuan nodded: "This is obvious. The 63rd Army has retreated before the enemy can touch it."
Comrade Xiao Li immediately became a little nervous: "Impossible? How could the 63rd Army retreat without saying a word?"
"No one can say for sure. If an emergency transfer order is issued from above, they need to evacuate immediately. Naturally, they will not have time to notify us."
Xia Yuan thought for a while and said: "Comrade Xiao Li, I want to take a company to take a look."
Comrade Xiao Li said hesitantly: "Comrade Xia Yuan, the teacher wants you to have a good rest."
"It is never too late to rest. You must not rest when the enemy is about to touch you."
Xia Yuan shook his head decisively and said: "Comrade Xiao Li, you make arrangements for us first, and I will take people over to take a look. When we come back and you have made arrangements, I will let them rest directly."
Seeing that Comrade Xiao Li was still hesitant, Xia Yuan took another approach and said: "The enemy uses Thompson submachine guns and Garand semi-automatic rifles, while our army uses Soviet-made PPS submachine guns. Judging from the sound of the gunshots,
There is at least one platoon of enemies, and our army has more than ten soldiers. Comrade Xiao Li, the division commander also said that we should adapt to the situation. The fighting over there is fierce. If the enemy calls for reinforcements, the location of the division headquarters may be exposed. The hospital
There are still many wounded people over there. If the enemy comes over, can we rely on the few people in the division headquarters to do it?"
Comrade Xiao Li immediately realized the seriousness of the matter and said, "Comrade Xia Yuan, I understand everything you said. I need to report it to the division commander."
"Wait a minute, don't go there yet. The division commander has to worry about the war all day long. The battle on the front line is getting more and more serious. The soldiers don't have enough to eat and sleep well. The division commander has many things to worry about. There's no need to trouble the division commander with this little thing. I'll take it with you.
The reconnaissance squad is having a fierce exchange of fire with the enemy. We go over and directly touch the enemy's buttocks and give them a blow. This enemy group will not be able to survive."
Xia Yuan stopped Comrade Li who was about to leave.
Comrade Xiao Li thought about it and felt that what Xia Yuan said was true, so he said: "Then you should be more careful. I will arrange a place for you to rest first."
"Comrade Xiao Li, I'm sorry to trouble you."
"Then you must come back safely."
"Don't worry."
Watching Xia go away, Comrade Xiao Li stood there for a long time, muttering something that he didn't know what to say, and then turned around to arrange a resting place for more than a dozen comrades in the company.
"Company commander!"
Xia Yuan came to the forest where the company had a temporary rest. When everyone saw him coming out, they immediately greeted him.
"Xia Yuan, what happened? Why did the fight suddenly start? This is the teacher's fault."
Instructor Shao felt a little uneasy. He held a slowly burning American brand cigarette between his two rough fingers, and the other one held his clothes uneasily, looking haggard.
Lao Ma, Lao Yang, and Lao Chen also looked bad. Their eyes were red and bloodshot, and they looked like man-eating beasts. Their hair and beards had grown very long. Some time ago, they used bayonets to trim and shave them.
When it comes to shaving, even though North Korea's conditions are limited, it doesn't make oneself so sloppy.
At that time, the war had not yet started, and the 180th Division was still in the tunnels in the rear area. From time to time, it would watch the performances of the art team, and the cooking team would also cook pancakes for everyone to eat. The logistics supply at that time was relatively stable.
But everything changed with the advent of the war.
Xia Yuan closed his eyes, loaded the gun behind him, and said: "The foreign devils are coming from the north. It should be their scouts. By some mistake, they touched our division commander. Now the division commander's guard
Ben is fighting with those foreign devils, let's go over and help."
"The special codes have touched the headquarters. Damn you, we can't let them touch it!"
"The gunshots were heard and the fighting was really fierce. The foreign enemy's scouts were quite effective in combat."
"Will my combat effectiveness be worse if I become a scout?"
While everyone was chatting, they quickly loaded up their weapons and ammunition, and followed Xia Yuan into the forest lightly, following the winding mountain road, looking for the sound of gunshots.
At this time, eighteen volunteer soldiers were relying on the favorable terrain to engage in confrontational shooting with the enemy, but their firepower was obviously a bit weaker, and the enemy's firepower was more ferocious. The light machine guns kept clicking, and bullets
The bushes that were half a man tall were broken with a pop, and there were broken and fallen leaves everywhere.
The bullets intertwined with each other, and the tinkling sound was endless.
The battle between dozens of people occupied a two-hundred-meter-wide battle line. Xia Yuan and his company had already run near them. He could see the situation clearly below from a mountain. He simply counted the number of helmets and the number of enemies in a platoon.
, they did not carry heavy weapons, they were all lightly armed, and the only light machine gun was just a BAR automatic rifle, used as a machine gun.
"There are more than thirty foreign devils in one platoon. Lao Xia, I led a few people to touch the backs of these foreign devils and give them a hard slap."
Ma Daguo also identified this enemy by checking the number of enemy helmets. More than thirty foreign devils made him full of confidence.
"Together, don't be careless. These foreign devils are the enemy's scouts. There are not many who can be scouts. It's not advisable to attack the few with more. Let's just have a dozen people and try to rush in and kill this group.
Eat the enemy!"
"What Lao Xia said is right, don't be careless or paralyzed. This is the master's command. If something happens, we can't bear the responsibility. Even though there are only more than 30 foreign devils, we still have to go all out!"
Instructor Shao echoed.
Everyone stopped saying anything and followed Xia Yuan, coming down from the mountain, along the steep mountain road, touching the trees that stood on the mountainside, and cautiously moving down.
As the two sides were getting closer and closer to each other, one could clearly feel the sound of bullets intertwining in the air, which was a bit noisy.
Although the firepower of a dozen volunteer soldiers is not strong, they cherish every bullet. Even if they cannot hit the enemy, they must still threaten the enemy's safety. It is with this idea that they stare at
Watching the foreign devils in the distance, instead of using firepower to suppress them, they suppressed the enemy with sporadic fire, so that the enemy did not dare to take the lead at all.
While fighting the enemy, the eighteen volunteer soldiers were constantly changing their positions to prevent their positions from being exposed and surrounded by the enemy.
Xia Yuan did not make too many observations. The situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. The situation observed in one second will be very different from the situation observed in the next second, especially in a battle like this with a company and platoon. The changes
The speed was so fast that he didn't have to spend more time observing the situation on the battlefield.
The battlefield situation where company and platoon units are fighting is inherently fast, and observation may not be useful.
What is needed more is adaptability to situations on the battlefield.
When they arrived at the ravine, Xia Yuan squatted on the ground. They were very close to where the enemy was firing. They could even hear the screams of the foreigners. The messy bullets hit the tree trunk directly in front of them. The tree trunk exploded and splintered wood.
Splashes everywhere.
Xia Yuan held his gun and stared at the American troops ahead, his ears picking up enemy information from time to time.
Waiting for a while made Ma Da and the others a little anxious. They wanted to stand up and charge towards the enemy, but instructor Shao stopped them with a look. They could only squat on the ground and hold the guns in their hands hard.
After dozens of seconds, Xia Yuan withdrew his gaze, turned his head and gestured, ordered a few soldiers to form two combat groups to attack in one direction, and ordered a few more soldiers to form two combat groups to attack in the other direction.
A few people set out immediately, digging through the dense bushes. What they saw were soldiers hiding behind the bunker, wearing gray coats and military uniforms. More than 30 people were scattered on a battle line more than 100 meters wide. Their faces turned out to be yellow.
people.
Big Ma didn't know what was going on, and for a brief moment he was stunned. The Korean soldier spotted Big Ma, Chen Lie and Lao Yang who suddenly came out from the side. They held their guns and moved the muzzle of their guns towards the dumbfounded Big Ma.
"You don't want your life!"
Chen Lie, with quick eyes and quick hands, pushed the big man to the ground.
"Damn, why do they look the same as us?"
The big man was a little confused, and then he was hit by a series of bullets and ran away.
"That's the Korean army!" Chen Lie cursed, and was almost killed by Ma Da. He originally had a good sneak attack, but because Ma Da was a cold monk for a short time, he was discovered by the enemy. If he hadn't reacted quickly, he would probably have
All the men and horses were beaten to pieces by the enemy.
"Han Jun, why did Han Jun show up at the division's fingertips?"
The big man was stunned.
"How did I know?" Chen Lie held the gun and lay on the reverse slope, breathing heavily. He was obviously frightened by the situation just now.
"Company Commander and the others are fighting the enemy!"
The observing Lao Yang suddenly shouted.
The three of them opened their ears and heard only the sound of gunfire, accompanied by the explosion of grenades.
The battle on the other side went very smoothly. Xia Yuan expected that this group of enemies was the South Korean Army. He had fought against them when they were on the way to Shangganling. The sticks were smarter and more vicious than the US military, so naturally he would not attack them too lightly.
, the soldiers who led a combat group rushed out of the bushes, greeting each other with grenades and submachine guns. The Korean soldiers who were caught off guard were stunned by several people who suddenly rushed out from behind. Five or six Korean soldiers in an area were shot to death indiscriminately.
His body was covered with large and small blood holes. He fell to the ground and was beaten a few times, but nothing happened.
"Go over and occupy the important territory!"
Xia Yuan roared and aimed at the bushes in the distance with his big gun. A series of bullets flew out from the dense bushes. He judged that the enemy was in the bushes and immediately fired back. The bushes were blocked. He relied entirely on hearing the sound to identify the location.
To judge the direction of the enemy's gunshots, one of the eight bullets will always hit the enemy.
As expected, the enemy's shooting stopped briefly. He immediately got out and rushed to the reverse slope occupied by the Korean army while changing ammunition. He grabbed the grenade on the corpse of a Korean soldier, pulled off the ring and threw it towards the bushes in the distance.
Wang Xiaoliang, Liu Tiezhu and Sun Changgui have also cooperated for a long time. They are also in the same platoon of soldiers. They have cooperated no less than several times, especially in the blocking battle in the highlands. When they climbed out of the shell hole together, their cooperation was still the same.
Very ok.
The instructor led a platoon deputy platoon leader and a soldier from the cooking squad to attack the Korean army from the other side.
The fighting will of this Korean army is quite strong. After Xia Yuan and the others appeared, they immediately moved towards them. The sound of gunfire was very chaotic, especially in such a jungle. Liu Tiezhu and Sun Changgui were also veteran soldiers. In such a jungle,
The battle was not done once or twice, and he was able to do it with ease.
Wang Xiaoliang seemed a little confused. He couldn't see the enemy and could only hear gunfire. The gunfire was so chaotic that he couldn't tell whether the gunfire was from his own people or the enemy. He crawled on the ground holding the gun and fired a string of bullets from time to time.
When the soil above his head hit the ground, Wang Xiaoliang curled up in shock.
"How can I fight if I can't see anything?"
Wang Xiaoliang shouted complainingly.
"Then don't move around, don't shoot randomly, don't hurt your own people!" Liu Tiezhu shouted.
"Calm down." Sun Changgui took a big eight pills, took a deep breath, turned to look at the company commander who was not far away, and shouted: "Company commander, how can we fight? I feel that there are enemies everywhere, including our own people."
Gunshots, are we being beaten as enemies by our own people?"
"I guess so."
Xia Yuan looked solemnly and looked at the equipment they had on them. They were all American-style equipment. When fighting in the jungle without seeing people, most of them judged the enemy through the sound of gunfire.
Experienced soldiers on the battlefield can basically distinguish the unique sound of the enemy's gunfire from their own gunfire, and they can also judge by using the different sounds emitted by weapons and equipment.
They didn't show up, so the volunteers on the opposite side couldn't see them. They could only hear American equipment, so they naturally treated them as enemies. The good thing is, it was because they didn't show up that the volunteers couldn't see them, so they just fired a few times.
, then there was no movement. If it were the main force, it is estimated that the heavy machine guns would be used by now.
The situation is not too bad.
"You guys wait here."
Xia Yuan stared at the bushes in front of him. The bushes in the mountains and fields were very dense, and the grass blades were painful. He walked through the bushes with his gun in hand, looking for the sound of gunfire, and ran into Big Ma and the others.
The muzzle of the gun was pointed at the big man, and he almost pulled the trigger. After seeing the clothes of several people clearly, Xia Yuan withdrew the gun and asked: "Why are you here? Didn't you flank the enemy?"
"Ask Lao Ma." Chen Lie saw clearly that it was Xia Yuan, sat down on the ground, and replaced a magazine for Da Ba Li.
