Chapter 0182: Reaching the Forefront
The thunder was discharged, and it crawled forward quickly. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and before they had time to wait for him to give a safety signal, they ran over one after another. Soon everyone was in the ravine between the two mountains ahead, which was full of craters, and it should be safe to pass along the craters.
"Everyone keep a distance in the back, pay attention to the movement on the mountain behind, I'll go first, Xiong Guoqing, Li Guozhu, you follow me." After saying that, he took the lead along the crater and ran forward quickly.
In front is an open field, in which a trench stands out. Xiong Guoqing to the left, Li Guozhu to the right, to seize the warning position. Fortunately, the people behind him did not suffer any attacks as they passed through the bottom of the ravine.
Now forward lying on the edge of a crater, watching ahead.
The hill a hundred meters ahead is another world entirely. There, the terrain protrudes forward, and the enemy is attacked on three sides, like a dagger into the heart of the enemy.
According to military topography, each place has its own portal, and the portal is a place of death that both sides are desperately fighting for. Another meaning of the portal represents a river of blood flowing and no bones remaining.
It was undoubtedly the gateway to the south, overlooking a large area of the enemy's northern territory, and their every move in this direction could be effectively monitored.
At present, the distance of 100 meters there is undoubtedly another line of death that the enemy forces focus on monitoring, and at a distance of 100 meters, there are many craters, no wonder it is quite difficult to supply the positions there. Looking back, the position they were going to was devoid of any vegetation, littered with rubble and craters.
It would be a great challenge to set up an observation post in such a place. After all, it is a front-line position, and it is covered by enemy artillery fire all the time. Now the 100-meter death line leading to the position is a big test ahead.
"How? Move forward. Li Guoshi followed, lying beside him.
"We have to go along the trench, you see that the trench has been beaten by the enemy unseemly, and I guess they will open fire or shoot. I'll go over and set up a guard position first, and you'll follow. In the past, hold the sniper rifle in your right hand and lean against the outer trench. ”
Looking at the forward sniper rifle, Li Guoshi nodded: "Yes!" Monitor. ”
Forwarding was stunned for a moment, and now no one calls him squad leader anymore, only Li Guoshi still makes an occasional noise. He began to advance along the trench, and the further he went, the lower the trench became, and after more than sixty meters, the trench was less than a meter, and it was very low. There are several sections in front of which have been blown up, and the place where the explosion has been blown up has no cover and is completely exposed.
The morning air gradually became moist and cool, and the fog was rising. The white mist spread out in the middle of the mountain. He hurriedly took advantage of the fog and hunched his waist and ran forward.
Needless to say, everyone behind him also took advantage of this fog to rush wildly, and the speed of the 100-meter dash did their best. There are no awards to be awarded, but speed is life.
The experience of crossing the death line last night made everyone dare not underestimate the shelling of the enemy blockade of the death line, and a second of delay may cost their lives.
"Quick! Fast! Fast! The defender sentry on the other end was still shouting hoarsely, "Go to the front, and it is safe to go to the anti-artillery hole in front." ”
The sentry of the defending army was panicked, and he was even more panicked when he heard it, as if countless guns were aimed at him in front of and behind him. He gasped, and before he could look back, his comrades behind him followed him one by one.
There were no gunshots.
That is to say, they finally arrived at their destination safely, and before everyone had time to relax, they plunged forward along the trench. The trenches are deep and covered with branches, bamboo, leaves and grass, and people pass underneath, which is very hidden and safe.
The fog grew heavier and heavier, and everyone successfully reached the anti-artillery holes of the positions.
It was a real hole, it looked big and deep, and the ammunition inside was as piled up as the outside. One soldier was lying on his stomach writing a letter home from an ammunition box near the hole, and two others were wiping a heavy machine gun.
"Squad leader, squad leader, old cat carved on the mountain! How do you write the word "disappointed"? The soldier who wrote the letter home was thin and leaned, and he turned sideways towards the man who had just entered the cave. I can hear that this soldier has no water in his pen again, and he can't write.
However, his voice moved forward as if he had heard it somewhere, and it felt very familiar, and he couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in his heart, wanting to see who it was.
A little earlier, the old cat who was the squad leader of the mountain carving who was wiping the gun lowered his head and kept his hands down, and said: "Sichuan mouse, you are really fucking forgetful, you said that you can't call it like that, and call me a mountain carving!" Didn't I just tell you about that Gu character yesterday? ”
This one seemed to be more familiar, and he was stunned for a moment.
The mountain carving who wiped the gun felt that there was someone at the entrance of the cave and the light was a little darker, so he put down the gun, and when he looked at it again, he said: "Oh, someone is coming, it seems to be a foot - why did those people who our company commander said on the phone come so quickly, I am not ready to meet them, I came all of a sudden, do you want to attack so suddenly." ”
After the old cat finished speaking, he suddenly hurriedly left his work and stood up, with a look of surprise on his face.
"You're the one who marched forward?" The old cat purred and gasped in his throat, and without waiting for an answer, he said again: "Oh, it's really me Brother Xiang, Brother Xiang, you didn't die, you touched here again?" It's really a place in life where you don't meet, and you have a fate to meet thousands of miles away! ”
The old cat strode over and patted him on the shoulder and laughed, the laughter was really the kind of hearty heroism after the vicissitudes of life and death, and the heroic spirit was not diminished at all.
"You are?" I didn't remember who he was. suddenly woke up and shouted: "Oh, aren't you just an old cat?" I just wondered, why is it called a mountain carving again? I thought I recognized the wrong person, so I didn't dare to say hello. ”
Hurriedly reaching forward, the two of them clasped tightly, and then laughed at each other again.
The brothers named Sichuan rats also hurriedly got up at this time, jumped over and greeted Xiang Qianqian warmly. I saw him holding a pen and saying, "Brother Xiang, do you remember me?" I'm a Sichuan mouse, I've fought side by side together, don't you say you don't remember! ”
The Sichuan mouse seemed very happy, and at this time his hoarse voice seemed to be better, his mouth was no longer thirsty, and his throat was not dry.
"Why are you acquaintances?" Captain Zhang Xingwu walked in and asked them. Getting their nod of approval, the captain seemed even happier, it would be much easier to do things if it was an acquaintance, after all, this is someone's land, acquaintances are easy to do, and now there is no need to recognize life.
Then he hurriedly introduced: "Captain, this is the old cat I touched their position before, it was a deputy squad leader at that time, and I just heard someone shouting, and the sub-word has been removed." Old cat, this is our platoon leader, and now the captain of the scout detachment! ”
The old cat stretched out his hand to Zhang Xingwu and said welcome, and continued to laugh, very enthusiastic and refreshing. The battlefield experience has changed him, and the people who crawl out of the pile of dead will change more or less, and the old cat is obviously the kind that tends to change in the positive direction.
Everyone shook hands, and Zhang Xingwu hurriedly asked Xiang Qian: "This is what I said that the platoon commander sent someone to send you down the mountain, that old cat?" ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, Zhang Xingwu held the old cat's hand again and said, "Oh, oops, old cat, thank you so much that time, thank you so much, it's really interesting!" I have to take care of you to live to this day, and I owe it all to you. I was his platoon leader, and now I'm his captain. At that time, I didn't know his life and death, our company commander blamed me for being weird, thank you, thank you, thank you again! ”
Moving forward, he introduced again: "Platoon commander, this is your fellow countryman, nicknamed Sichuan Mouse!" This is - I don't know much about these people in it, and I ask the old cat to make an introduction, can you? ”
He turned to the old cat.
Of course, this is no problem and it should be, and the old cat said, "Yes, yes, yes." A few of you came over to meet the new scout - well, Brother Xiang, you're really good, you still have two guns in battle, and this sniper rifle is still the original Soviet load captured last time? Oh, what are you doing standing? Please all come in, put things down and sit casually. By the way, let me ask, have you all arrived? It's not easy to get over here, no dead people, right? One, two, three......"
The old cat tilted his head to count the scouts who came in.
"You don't have to count it, it's all here, it's nothing. In fact, this is the protagonist, he is the artillery watchman He Siguang, and we are all supporting roles who accompany him to do something with you. "Say forward.
"Yes, yes! On the phone, our company commander made it very clear. Everyone put down their things and sit casually. Anything can be put casually, and it is very safe and will not fall. Oh, it's really a life where we don't meet, we have a fate to meet thousands of miles away, and now we meet our brother again! Later, a superior came to verify our affairs about you, and everyone helped to say it. After a while, we will see the newspapers and magazines, and we all know that you will definitely become a famous hero. ”
The old cat is indeed a capable man, heaven and earth, and this will ask him if he has been received by the old man in Beijing, and how many batches he has gone. So they talked about their company commander, who took a photo with the old man, and now climbed up and sat in the position of the battalion commander.
Nodding forward, nodding his head constantly, pulling him and saying that he couldn't move.
The old cat talked for a long time and suddenly found it, hurriedly let go of his hand and said, "Brother Xiang, why don't you ask your people to put down their equipment?" Is it easy to carry? I heard that you will be here for more than a month in the future, so congratulations to you, you have suffered. It's not easy here, and ordinary people can't stand it, but it's different for us, because we can fight, and from that side to this side, almost all positions have been passed. ”
Looking forward at him, the old cat was a chatter, and then said: "These times, where there is hardship, there is a place!" Our squad was more prominent, and we put it in the most dangerous place to suppress the enemy. The brothers said that I am now the highest commander here, and my nickname has been upgraded from the old cat to a mountain carving. I didn't like the name at all, it sounded like a bandit leader, and I told them many times that I couldn't call it that!
The old cat looked helpless.
But everyone laughed when they heard this, and they were very, very happy.
