The battle was going on very fiercely. The charge of the Vietnamese army fell down a group of people and then another group came up. The Vietnamese army firepower on the tank defense line almost kept firing at our army. Of course, it seemed that the tank guns and mortars were fired at the back.
It has no effect anymore. After all, there are only a limited number of shells on the tank, and some of them are armor-piercing bombs targeting the tank.
The continuous battles only made the soldiers and I breathless... By the way, we have not had much rest since the start of this battle. We first fought with the enemy head-on, and then wiped out the remnants of the Vietnamese army.
After resting for an hour, we marched all the way to Huanglian Mountain to participate in the battle... It can be said that our physical strength was almost at its limit at this time.
Company Commander Luo also thought about using the fourth company to exchange positions that were preparing to replace us... but after discussing with the regiment commander, he gave up this idea.
There are two reasons:
First, the battle was going too tight, and the Vietnamese Japanese were wave after wave. When they attacked the inclined surface to fight our army in the previous wave, they used the tank defense line to prepare for battle in the next wave, and only
Wait until the previous wave is almost done, then continue to rush forward.
This offensive density makes us afraid to change defenses easily, because when the troops change defenses, especially when changing defenses in narrow trenches, it is easy to experience crowding and chaotic situations. If the Japanese invaders take advantage of this time to launch a charge...
It may allow them to break through the defense line.
Another reason is that the regiment leader is worried that even if we successfully change defenses, the newly-up soldiers will not be able to adapt to such intense and intense battles for a while... This concern makes sense, just like a person who has just woken up is not suitable for strenuous exercise.
Or if you are not suitable to relax and rest immediately after strenuous exercise, you must be mentally prepared to enter the state of fighting before you can fight well.
Some people may say... Then, the substitute company 4 can be replaced by squads or platoons. This way, the first will not be confused, and the second will also allow the soldiers of the company 4 to enter the combat state in batches, right?
This is indeed a solution, but... if you do this, another problem will arise - the problem of command coordination.
Some people think this is not simple, just let the substitute troops obey Company Commander Luo's orders.
But on the battlefield, it is not as simple as listening to someone's orders. Many times, a commander should be familiar with the soldiers under his command, at least with cadres and backbones, and have a big sigh of their abilities and combat effectiveness.
Only by understanding the tasks or making decisions based on their abilities.
If there are a bunch of unrestrained faces, not only Corps Luo is unsure, but even our soldiers feel guilty. At that time, we will think in our hearts: Can these newcomers defend our wings?
?Can we be in line with us on the battlefield? Can we leave our lives to them with confidence?
So under the attack of the Vietnamese army, we could only grit our teeth and hold on. After all, it was nothing more than losing our lives.
"Bang bang..." I don't know how many Vietnamese troops have been destroyed. My main goal is the firepower cover of the Vietnamese army on the Vietnamese tank defense line.
Because I know that compared to those charge Vietnamese troops, the troops covered by Vietnamese firepower are our greatest threat. As long as their firepower can successfully suppress our military firepower... Then don't think too much, Yue
The army would rush up one after another. Otherwise, the charge of the Vietnamese army would be just the targets of the soldiers' guns.
But as I fought, I felt a sense of helplessness.
I have a sniper rifle in my hand. Although I can kill the Vietnamese machine gunners and mortars on the tank defense line one by one... However, the machine gunners of the Vietnamese Japanese were on the battlefield one by one, and it should be said that the Vietnamese Japanese were almost there.
Everyone fired machine guns because I saw that any infantry came up and picked up the machine gun and could shoot at our top of the mountain, so I couldn't finish it no matter how hard I tried.
This is probably the terrifying thing about the 316a Division of the Vietnam Army. They are not only strong in military qualities, but more terrifying is that they seem to have been trained to have no feeling of death.
But I think there should be part of the reason for this, because they clearly know that if they do not conquer the 217 Highland, they can only wait to be surrounded and annihilated.
As the battle became more and more intense, the passages on the 217 Highlands became wider and wider, and the number of troops that the Vietnamese army could invest more and more. At first, a company had to be divided into several batches, followed by two platoons. Now
It was enough for a company to spread on the inclined surface...
Of course, the price paid by the Vietnamese army was also very heavy. The corpses on the slope were covered with broken limbs and broken arms. Anyway, there was a battalion of Vietnamese Japanese killed under our guns... In the past, the Vietnamese army would still have fought in the gaps between battles.
The body was dragged back, but this time they did not do so.
I think this is done by the Vietnamese devils on purpose. Although the corpse will slow down the speed of the Vietnamese army's advance to some extent, it can also suppress underground mines... This can make the Vietnamese army more at ease and boldly look at me
The military attacks on positions. The two evils are the least. The Vietnamese army is not a fool. Of course, they also know that the latter is more beneficial to them.
However, I later realized that the Vietnamese army did not drag the body back in fact.
But this is a story later. Now I just feel a little strange... Don't the Vietnamese army have only two regiments in front of us? If the Vietnamese Japanese consume their troops at this speed, I'm afraid they won't need me at all.
The main force of the army came to encircle and annihilate them... As long as we have enough ammunition, it only takes two or three days, and the 316a Division of the Vietnamese Army is probably no longer there.
"How much ammunition is left?" I asked Wu Zhijun.
Wu Zhijun's squad often takes on the task of transporting ammunition to our platoon, which is also due to giving them time to adapt to the battlefield.
"This..." Wu Zhijun felt a little embarrassed when he heard this question: "Report to the platoon leader, there was no time to count!"
"Yeah!" So I changed my question: "How many of it has been consumed?"
"It's 30% clear!" Wu Zhijun replied: "The Vietnamese Japanese have a lot of ammunition, all like ammunition depots!"
I nodded with satisfaction. It makes sense that the Vietnamese army stored so much ammunition at the pass. After all, this is a canyon where only one man can pass by and ten thousand men. What a military land like this is the most feared is that there is no ammunition. In addition, Yue
The Japanese believed that this place should be very safe. Store ammunition in this area can also become a logistics supply station for the main force of the Vietnamese army... But they never thought that these ammunition would fall into our hands.
Now, 30% of the ammunition has wiped out a battalion of the Yue Japanese, which means that all the ammunition can be defeated by a group of the Yue Army... Even if the Yue Japanese still has a regiment, if one regiment is destroyed by us, I
I don’t believe that they dare to continue fighting like this!
Even if they dare to fight like this, I believe that the Japanese devils have consumed almost the same ammunition. And we can still go to the corpses of the Vietnamese army in front of the position to pick up bullets and continue to fight, right? It is very difficult for the Vietnamese army to attack the side.
Do this.
So I felt even more strange. Could it be that the Japanese devils would really fight like this? They really just use their lives to pile up?
Just when I was confused, another group of attacking troops of the Vietnamese army came up again.
This time the attack seemed a little different from the previous few times: the number of people who were ready to charge after entering the tank defense line was more. There was a reinforcement company, and it was still increasing. Special... I also see
Several more boxes of shells were carried up, which meant that the Vietnamese army was going to shell our positions again.
Sure enough, after two shells exploded on our position, the Vietnamese army shouted and charged towards our position. They held the bayonet guns and stepped on the corpses of their comrades like ants.
On our positions, anti-aircraft machine guns and tank guns quickly rang out...
This did not surprise me. In some ways, the charge of the Vietnamese army was not purely seeking death. They were very good at using craters and comrades' bodies as cover. They even successfully built on the inclined surface
Two machine gun positions were taken.
How did the Vietnamese army do it?
There are always some places in the high ground that are uneven, and some parts such as the ridges will block the angle of machine gun shooting on the top of our army. Of course, it cannot be the dead corners of all machine guns in our army. In fact, it spreads from the light in a straight line.
From this perspective, if there is a place that is the dead corner of all the firepower of our army, then the Vietnamese army hiding there will also not see any firepower points of our army.
The Vietnamese army chose places that were difficult to cover. They first used tank guns or mortars to blow up several pits, and then the first group of people came up to dig a few times and piled up a few corpses... After the sacrifice, the second group was again
Then I came up and continued to pile up the corpses, so a machine gun position piled up with corpses appeared there a few times!
This may be somewhat unimaginable in a peaceful world, but we can accept it on the battlefield, because it is already full of death, killing and cruelty.
What I wonder is why the Vietnamese army fired several shells every once in a while, and they seemed to be intentional about connecting mortars and tank guns, one sound after another...
Then, I discovered a bigger problem from the landing points of those shells: Sometimes the Vietnamese mortars would have no idea in order to rush out the shells.
So I knew that they did this not to cover the army's charge, but to hide something.
What are you hiding?
The only thing that can hide the sound of cannons is sound... So I took back the gun and hid in the trenches and listened carefully. As expected, I heard something in the gap between the cannons:
It's the sound of tracks... the sound of tracks of tanks! To be continued.)
