Chapter 309: Solving the Cow (22)
The Yankees' machine guns are getting farther and farther away, not because the Yankees' machine gun positions are moving, but because the company commander Wei Jianjun is leading the troops to leave here quickly. The third squad of the third platoon was quickly found, and five of the ten fighters were shot. Two were seriously injured, two were lightly injured, and one has already died. The three improvised stretchers brought by the medical team that came with Wei Jianjun were immediately put to use. The troops supported the lightly wounded and carried the seriously wounded and sacrificed comrades to retreat to the lake.
Although Company Commander Wei Jianjun said that he would move along the shallows on the shore of the lake, there must be a shoal first. The geological structure of the Great Lakes is not really like a shallow shoal. They were in a position that was rare in the Great Lakes region, flat rocky beaches with no shelter. Now, as soon as the troops walked towards the lake, they were immediately rugged and rocky. Even if the evening breeze is not strong now, and the lake is far less than the turbulent waves under the action of the wind, the movement of the lake water lapping against the stony shore is not small.
"Let's block the light with a military coat first!" The accompanying military doctor gave orders to the soldiers.
The soldiers took off their military coats one after another with great obedience, and made use of improvised stretchers to enclose a makeshift medical room in a hollow area. Including the company commander Wei Jianjun, he also obediently took off his coat to cover the light emitted by the flashlight carried by the military doctor. No one dares to challenge the authority of the military doctor on the battlefield, and if it is peacetime, everyone is still in the mood to talk to the military doctor for a while. At this time, they were facing their comrades who had been shot, and they were in great pain and bleeding. It's a matter of real life and death, and no one dares to say anything.
Wei Jianjun has developed a meticulous style of acting, which is not that he is naturally so cautious. In Wei Jianjun's memory, as long as there is something not cautious enough and he thinks that there will be no accident, he will probably have an accident. Such experiences have accumulated again and again, and Wei Jianjun himself does not dare to relax in the slightest. Sure enough, after walking around the temporary medical room, Wei Jianjun found that one place was still leaking, and he immediately walked over and covered it with a military coat. It wasn't until he was sure that all the parts were well covered that he stood down next to a rock by the lake.
In such a dark sky, although it was not unnecessary to post a sentry, it was not necessary to let the company commander personally do so. But the screams of a soldier in the simple treatment room made Wei Jianjun feel very uncomfortable. It wasn't a fake, it was a real voice out of pain. This voice made Wei Jianjun fidget, and he had to stay away to feel more comfortable.
At this moment, the third platoon commander walked over, perhaps because he was in a much relaxed mood at this time, and the third platoon commander said with some embarrassment: "Company commander......"
Wei Jianjun immediately interrupted the words of the third platoon leader, "Third platoon leader, don't go to the lake when we go back." It seems that this lake cannot be walked. Let's wait as soon as the enemy retreats. We go around behind them or through the gaps. ”
"Huh?" The third platoon leader was stunned, Wei Jianjun's choice was completely beyond his imagination.
"You can't wade with the wounded. No water can be seen from the wound. Even if we don't take the wounded with us, we're afraid we won't be able to swim now. Instead of that, we might as well just go the easiest way. Wei Jianjun explained his thoughts.
"But......" The third platoon commander seemed to be shocked by this Jianyi, and he only said two words and couldn't continue.
"Scared?" Wei Jianjun asked.
This sentence made the third platoon commander immediately come to his senses like a stimulant, and his voice immediately became excited, "Company commander, I'm not afraid!" ”
With this plan, Wei Jianjun also immediately made arrangements. The Yankees, who had dealt a heavy blow to the third platoon, had no intention of breaking away from their positions in the dark of night, which allowed the third platoon to return to where they had started. After identifying the lines of communication, the scouts began to reconnoiter how to return. After more than half an hour, the scouts brought back the latest information on the battlefield, and the Yankees gathered on the large flat land where the second company had retreated, but there were no troops on the shore of the lake. So if you bypass those people, the second company can go north and find opportunities from places where the enemy doesn't expect them.
Once the decision is made, it is time to assemble the troops. At this time, the emergency medical treatment had also ended, and the military doctor walked up to Wei Jianjun with a faint bloody aura, and said in a tired voice: "The wounds of the lightly wounded have been treated, and one of the two seriously injured has not been saved." The other took the bullet out and injected anesthetic. Be careful when handling it, it will probably work. ”
"Thank you, doctor!" What Wei Jianjun said came from the bottom of his heart, and for those who can save lives, everyone is always really polite.
Just as the troops were about to leave, there was a sudden burst of gunfire in the distance. All the commanders and fighters stopped, their inexperienced expressions nervous, and they were quite surprised by the sudden outbreak of large-scale battles. The experienced ones looked solemn, and they could hear that the place of the fierce battle was probably in the area of the battalion headquarters, and the third platoon was now going to take the battalion headquarters as the end point for their return.
At this moment, a point of light rose straight into the sky at a not too fast speed, and unlike the flare, this point of light was neither red nor green, it emitted a silvery-white light. It was like a silver-white star rising from the ground to the sky. After ascending to a considerable height, the stars suddenly went out.
Wei Jianjun noticed this abnormal movement, and in addition to immediately raising his hand to cover his eyes, he immediately shouted to everyone around him: "Blindfolded!" Blindfold right away! ”
Most of those who heard the order did, and those few who didn't suddenly saw a bright giant star suddenly light up in the sky. The intense white light caused those who tried to stare at it to subconsciously close their eyes. And those who cover their eyes are to see that all around them are illuminated by a miserable white light. It was a ray of light several times better than the brightest moonlight, and it was the light released by the flares of the Liberation Army.
In the midst of this, Wei Jianjun already had a new idea. He shouted to the platoon commander, "Let the wounded and non-combatants stay here, and we will now go back and take the stronghold you attacked." ”
The third platoon commander didn't understand what was going on, but Wei Jianjun didn't want to explain anything to this tenacious guy at all. Since the Liberation Army has flares, it is unrealistic for the small unit of the third platoon to do anything to run away in the dark. There is too much difference between the uniforms and equipment of the Liberation Army and the U.S. Federal Army, and the enemy can see the problem from a distance.
At this point, the best thing to do is to take advantage of the current situation and take down the enemy's position first. Then take advantage of the enemy's position to hold out until dawn. After Wei Jianjun made a decision, he no longer thought about the feasibility of this decision, and he took the lead in carrying a rifle and started to act without hesitation. Half a beat was full, and the soldiers also followed the company commander forward.
After tossing for almost a day, the troops were quite tired. And the battle has changed quite a lot, and many fighters have some confused expressions on their faces. But they followed the company commander through the battlefield without hesitation, and went straight to the combat site without hesitation.
