Chapter 0002 Interspersed with the Company
Separated by two hills, the officers and men of the 3rd Company, who had broken out of the enemy's artillery blockade, were desperately rushing forward, and everyone was so tired that they could not breathe, and no one noticed who had fallen behind.
The road was indeed too difficult to walk, many people were covered in mud, and most of the military uniforms were scratched by thorns and thorns, and there was blood on their bodies.
Interspersed operations are like this, in order to conceal the enemy, all the places that go are steep slopes and deep valleys. No one knows what happened when they were ambushed by artillery fire just now, and why they went to the front of the enemy's position? Don't understand.
"Report to the commander of the third company, we have crossed the border and are now on the anticline of the elongated heights, advancing along the first route!" The scout who led the team gasped and reported the position to the commander of the third company at the right time.
After the reinforced deputy battalion commander was seriously injured and died, the heavy responsibility of operational command was entirely on the shoulders of the commander of Long San's company.
Long San is the company commander, and it happens to be the third company commander.
Hearing the report, Company Commander Long couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But after looking at the table below, my heart was still anxious: "There is still such a long way, I can't catch up!" ”
There are only about ten minutes left before the scheduled interspersed time in place, and the actual time to walk in this kind of road condition is at least several times longer than calculated on the map.
He was about to give the order to increase the speed again, when suddenly a platoon commander Zhang Xingwu rushed to his side, gasping and said, "Report to the company commander - my platoon is moving forward and has not followed." It seems that many of the manpower in the company have been lost! ”
Company Commander Long was taken aback when he heard this, and hurriedly glanced back at the team behind him, he really didn't see a few heads in the thorn bush.
This time he was really panicked, and hurriedly ordered: "Correspondent, give the order, each platoon gathers the troops, counts the number of people, and sees how many are lost." ”
Soon the report came up, the third platoon did not follow, the second platoon had only one squad, and the two cannon platoons assigned to him were only in place.
With this amount of troops, it is simply impossible to attack the enemy's deep high ground and hold on, and complete the entire combat mission of blocking and evading and sending reinforcements.
"It's over, it's over!"
Company Commander Long felt like he had been stabbed in the back, and cold sweat suddenly went straight from the top of his head to the bottom of his feet, and his heart was cold.
"Did anyone see it?" In almost despair, he asked.
He was not yet eighteen years old, the youngest soldier in the company, and he had always treated him like a brother. Before leaving, he repeatedly told the platoon leader to take him with him and not let him make a mistake.
If the whole company fights until there is only one person left, then this person should be him.
"I just asked, and it seems that I died when I was blocked by the enemy." A long line replied.
"It's gone at such a young age!" Company Commander Long felt a deep pain in his heart after hearing this. Then he blushed his face and roared: "Listen to me, follow me, don't go wrong again, and die on the high ground of the mission!" ”
"Yes! We will follow you, company commander! Someone in the back replied, nervous but determined.
"Keep up, don't get lost, if you get lost, there will be no one. One after the other, let's go! Company Commander Long said and waved the mountain opening knife, and personally slashed in front to lead the way.
Everyone didn't say a word, and followed him desperately forward in a high degree of mental tension.
The bamboo bushes on the slopes in this area are so thick that they are impermeable, and it is really difficult to pass. Under the leadership of Company Commander Long, the officers and men were like fierce tigers stirring on the hillside, and the bamboo bushes were "rattling" and separating on both sides.
"Maybe that kid isn't dead, company commander, you don't have to be too sad!" Company clerk Zhang Sheng squeezed to the front, panting and said to the commander of the third company of Longsan.
The company commander didn't squeak, just nodded.
Zhang Wenshu was a very careful person, he knew that the company commander was sad after learning that Xiang Qian was sacrificed, and thought of a way to comfort him. After thinking about it, he said: "That kid has a good quality as a single soldier, you can rest assured, he will be fine." I have a hunch that if he doesn't show up today, he will return to the company tomorrow at most. ”
Company Commander Long didn't want to talk more, and saw that he was chattering, so he shouted: "You don't talk much, I know what the situation is." Keep up and don't get lost! Help me look behind the dots. Damn, this place is too hard to walk, I'll cut, I'll cut, I'll cut! ”
The team followed closely with the commander of the third company and continued in the direction of the target high ground.
Everyone walked to the edge of a valley in a hurry, and there was another gunfire on the cliff behind them, and the bullets "snapped" on the rocks around them, ejecting sparks.
Everyone ignored it, and ran down the valley with a slick of smoke.
Not far from the exit of the valley is a small stream, which flows "whoosh".
When they saw the water, everyone was so thirsty, but they didn't drink it. Swollen corpses lay by the stream, soaked in water. Presumably, this guy was killed by the scouts who came in earlier, and he was still wearing a military uniform.
Running all the way down the hill, the front starts to go uphill again.
Passing through a village on a slope, there was no one in the village for a long time, and the hungry wild dogs did not bark when they saw everyone.
When they reached the mountain, everyone was so tired that they ran out of breath, and the gunshots rang out again, and unfortunately several more people were shot and fell.
The company commander went crazy and shouted and opened fire into the bushes on the opposite hill. Everyone immediately lay down without an order and fired at a row of guns pointed by the company commander. The 60 mortar urgently came to the opposite side, but I don't know if it hit.
Before the enemy fired any more shots, everyone got up and ran again.
Ran into a ravine and had no way out. The scout who led the way was also confused, and he didn't know where he had just taken the wrong path.
The company commander shouted to turn back, so the rear army became the front army and retreated to the ridge just now. The scout made out the direction and headed straight for the hill opposite where the enemy had fired his guns.
The company commander was worried at this time, not knowing that the enemy was still there, so he aimed at them and had no power to fight back.
Fortunately, there have been no gunshots, and it is safe to cross the mountain to the opposite side.
As I descended the trail, the grass in front of me was shaking. The sharp knife squad pounced, and after a scuffle, caught a woman on the floor, who looked like a rural woman, black and thin, and not tall.
The company commander was very angry, ran down with his gun, and raised it at the woman, and was about to smash the butt of her gun. If you hit your head, you will definitely have your head broken and bleed, and you will not be dead or half dead.
The instructor hurriedly hugged him and said that he would make a mistake.
"it! I'm not afraid to make mistakes. She killed several of us just now, and now she is pretending to be a civilian, can she fool me? ”
The company commander wanted to smash it, the instructor wanted to stop it, and the two twisted together.
The fighters did not dare to persuade.
The instructor couldn't stop it, he was on fire, hugged his waist and put the company commander over, and even called his correspondent to help hold it down.
His correspondent didn't dare to slack off, so he ran over, but he didn't dare to help, and the company commander also had a communicator, staring at him. Many of them were staring at him as well, and if he dared, he would have to go up and beat him into a human form.
No one noticed the woman, and little by little she began to move towards the steep slope outside. When the two warriors who twisted her realized that something was wrong, the woman had already struggled violently, and one rolled over and rolled down the slope, judging from the decisiveness of her movements, it was definitely not an ordinary rural woman.
Several of them pounced, trying to get her back. The sharp-knife squad leader didn't care about thirty-seven twenty-one, pinched the fire, hit a shuttle, and a miserable scream came from the shaking grass.
When the instructor heard the gunshot, he let the company commander stand up and said, "Forget it, don't waste any more ammunition." ”
The company commander also got up, gasped and said, "Old Wu, you are an instructor!" The benevolence of the woman, that is obviously a female soldier, take off the military uniform and treat it as if nothing happened? Forget it, let's hurry up and keep running. ”
