"We can't continue fighting like this!" Although I knew this, there was nothing I could do about it.
A sense of powerlessness arises in my heart. I am just a platoon leader, and the soldiers on Highland 239 can be said to be dead and injured. In addition, there is not enough ammunition... I am afraid that they will be beaten back.
This charge by the Vietnamese army was already extremely difficult.
Wait, then I suddenly remembered that the old man seemed to have said that there are ways to fight without bullets and without bullets: "How to fight without bullets? Fight with bayonets! Our troops' ability to fight with bayonets is indeed not as good as that of the Japanese, but it is still better than letting them fight."
The better the enemy is to keep us at a distance and kill us all. Besides... when the enemy and our own people are entangled with bayonets, the enemy's machine guns and artillery will all be useless!"
That's right! It's just a bayonet fight!
However... most of the soldiers in our army are exhausted. Secondly, their stabbing skills are not as good as those of the Japanese. Thirdly, the Japanese may not be able to fight with us at this time. If we do it rashly,
If we rush forward, all they have to do is raise their submachine guns and shoot at us, right?
So we have to find another way... Yes, there is a mortar company that can be used, right?
Thinking of this, I put away my gun and ran along the trench towards the company headquarters.
After a while, Captain Luo was found. At this time, he also joined the battle. Despite the scholarly look on his face, he was quite skillful with the 56 and a half in his hand. As soon as he popped up, he fell down with two "bang bang" shots.
A Japs appeared again and defeated another Japs. Only then did I understand why the company commander chose the 56 and a half instead of the Type 56 submachine gun. Anyone with better marksmanship likes to use a gun with good accuracy, which saves bullets and can
Hit the enemy more often. For example, if I were to use an AK47, I would be so angry at the poor accuracy that I would vomit blood.
"Company Commander!" I shouted loudly, only in this way could Captain Luo hear me.
"What's the matter?" The company commander was also a sensible person and knew that I must have something important to do with him at this critical moment, so he stopped what he was doing.
"Company commander!" Because the gunshots and explosions were very noisy, I could only say as briefly as possible: "Contact the mortar unit, hide and seek, blow up the position! Fight with bayonets!"
At first I was a little worried that Company Commander Luo wouldn't understand, but as soon as I saw the surprise on the Company Commander's face, I knew he had understood.
What I mean by this is to contact the mortar troops to bomb our own positions. The Japanese are about to rush up, right? Then let them rush up. Let’s hide in the hole and let the mortars shine on our positions.
Explode. After the explosion, before the Japanese can react, launch a counterattack...
Of course, this is also dangerous for us. No one can be sure which shell will not hit Mao'er Cave... However, it seems that this is the only way to survive now.
Time did not allow Captain Luo to think too much. The next second, Captain Luo nodded and said to me: "I will contact the artillery unit, and you pass on the order!"
"Yes!" I responded and immediately shouted to the soldiers beside me: "Pass the order on and follow the order and enter the cat's cave!"
"What?" The soldier next to him thought he heard wrongly. The enemy was about to rush up, and he was still trying to hide and seek.
It wasn't until I repeated it that he passed on the order with hesitation.
At this time, our company, including the wounded, only had about fifty people, so the order was quickly spread throughout the army. After hearing this order, the soldiers, without exception, resisted and cast doubtful glances at me.
Even Scar and Chen Yiyi are no exception. They don't know what kind of medicine I am selling in this gourd.
"Beep, beep, beep..." At this time, the company commander came out from the company headquarters. After blowing the whistle, he shouted at us: "Everyone is here. Follow my order and throw the grenade and enter the cat hole!"
"Well", I couldn't help but feel a little surprised after hearing the company commander's order.
I didn't expect to throw grenades before entering Maoer Cave, but this is obviously correct. What if the Vietnamese Japanese invaded our trenches the moment we entered Maoer Cave? What would the artillery fire do to them?
Still can't do much damage, but it seems that we can only hide in the cat's hole and wait to die.
So I reached out and took out a grenade from my waist and held it in my hand. Some soldiers had used up their grenades and had to borrow one from other soldiers.
The company commander cautiously popped his head up to take a look. After waiting for a while, he shouted: "Do it!"
The soldiers all fired up the grenades and threw them outside the trench. I also tried my best to throw the grenades out... We didn't need to look at the target at all. We just threw them as far as we could. They were everywhere outside anyway.
Are they Jie Jies? Moreover, this grenade is not intended to kill many Jie Jies, it is just intended to delay their actions.
After dumping it, I didn't care about that much anymore, and just "squeaked" into the cat hole behind me.
When I got into the Maoer Cave, I realized how risky my idea was. What if the Japanese invaders rushed up regardless of the threat of grenades? What if the artillery unit failed to coordinate properly and launched artillery fire late? We are like this now
It's a rudder bird with its head buried in the sand, just waiting for the hunter to easily kill us one by one!
"Boom..." The first thing to explode was the row of grenades we threw out. However, after waiting for a while, there were still no shells coming... I felt a little panicked.
I poked my head out and saw, damn... a Vietnamese soldier had rushed to the edge of the trench and had spotted me. He was grinning ferociously, pointing his gun at me and about to pull the trigger!
Now that the attack was over, I thought to myself: This guy is holding an AK. Will I not be beaten into pieces by this shuttle?
Damn artillery, they killed me!
However, at this moment, a shell suddenly exploded next to the Vietnamese soldier. The Vietnamese soldier didn't even hum before he divided into several pieces and flew into the sky, and one of them flew straight towards me.
It hit me right in the head. I couldn't hide in the cat's hole even if I wanted to... Damn it, this Vietnamese devil didn't even let me die.
Immediately afterwards, the shells exploded more and more, and the hits became denser and denser... In an instant, the entire 239 Highlands was blackened, and even the sunlight was completely obscured by the dust and black smoke raised by the shells.
The shells came at just the right time...I said to myself that I was lucky, and I would like to thank my artillery comrades later.
Artillery shells were fired around us one after another, and exploded above our heads. The waves of vibrations and loud noises seemed to be no different from the enemy's bombing. The only difference was that... at this time, the enemy troops were exposed outside the position.
Under artillery fire, we were hiding in cat holes in the trenches.
This artillery bombardment lasted for seven or eight minutes. Later I found out that the company commander was desperate. He asked the two mortar companies of the first and second battalions to fire out all the shells... The target was us. 239 Hill. It is said that the company commander has been asked several times for this. The reason is that the comrades in the artillery unit were a little reluctant when they heard that the target was 239 Hill... What if one of their comrades was killed? The superiors blamed it. Who is responsible?
As a result, the company commander said angrily: "I am responsible for the death of my comrades. Even if it kills me, I am still responsible!"
Therefore, the artillery unit's doubts were dispelled and they agreed to the plan.
The seven or eight minutes of artillery bombing passed quickly. I had experienced several bombings by the enemy. Although my eardrums were buzzing from the sound of the artillery and I couldn't judge from the sound of the artillery, it still gradually stopped from the ground. He knew this from the shock, so he cleared away the soil piled at the entrance of the gun-proof hole and climbed out...
Good guy! Our army's artillery fire was also fierce enough. In just a few minutes, our trenches were blown to ashes. If we hadn't been prepared in advance and hid in the artillery holes, we would only be here now. I'm afraid not many people will come out alive.
The soldiers also got out of the artillery holes one after another, and looked outside the trenches... There were so many Japanese soldiers lying in front of them, and it was hard to tell which ones were alive and which ones were dead. They were all there anyway. Just the bright red one.
Then, before we could take a breath and rest, Captain Luo brandished his bayonet half and shouted at us: "Comrades! For the tranquility of the motherland's borders and the safety of thousands of compatriots, kill!" "
"Kill!" the soldiers shouted, straightened their bayonets, and jumped out of the trenches and rushed down the mountain like tigers descending the mountain. I also fixed the bayonet on my rifle and jumped out with my soldiers.
There was only a dozen meters between our army and the enemy. The soldiers rushed down as fast as possible and collided head-on with the enemy in just a few seconds. At this time, the enemy had just been stunned by a burst of artillery fire from our army. They just wanted to get up and continue to charge towards our army's position, but they never expected that we would launch a countercharge at this time. In just the blink of an eye, the bayonet was already in front of them.
On the battlefield, we have to beat up the drowned dogs. If we don't kill them while they are sick, then it is very likely that we will lose our lives.
With a sound of "Puff!", I stabbed an enemy soldier standing in front of me to the ground with one stroke of my knife.
I think he should be honored for this, because he was the first enemy soldier to die under my knife when I rushed out of the trench. When I rushed in front of him, he had just gotten up from the ground, and he didn't even have a gun. When he got up, at that moment he raised his head and looked at me with frightened eyes, so that I could easily put the bayonet into his neck, then turn the bayonet to the right and pull out the bayonet...
I heard the old man talk about this stabbing method before. The reason why I still remember it now is because the old man used a sharp and wide butcher knife to draw in front of me, which almost scared me to tears.
At that time, the old man waved the butcher's knife and said: "If the knife goes in straight and comes out straight, the opening will be as big as the blade. As long as it doesn't hit the vital point, there will be no big problem. But If you go in straight, stir it inside and then come out horizontally... the incision will be so big that sometimes even the intestines can be pulled out, and the enemy can be killed with one knife!"
I didn't expect that the old man's words would come in handy on the battlefield again.
