The motor roared, and more than a dozen Sherman and Pershing tanks lined up on the open field in front, slowly covering the infantry behind.

U.S. attacks are always spearheaded by tanks, which they seem to use as a movable trench.

In fact, this method of warfare was indeed very effective for the volunteer army, which lacked anti-tank weapons. Because with this tactic they can always easily advance to the foot of the hill until the tanks can no longer be driven, and we are always helpless against them, and",

"Boom!" With a bang, the enemy tank opened fire. And not only the enemy's tank guns. Behind the tank, quite a few American GIs with recoilless guns and Bazooka rocket launchers bombarded our positions one after another. Suddenly, the explosion rang out again, and the ground shook continuously. The debris and gravel on the head fell with a roar, making the already somewhat shaky pit even more dangerous.

What made the fighters a little helpless was even more. The U.S. Bazooka rocket launcher can fire 'fire' incendiary bombs. The U.S. troops must have spent a while marking the location of our tunnels on the map, and then they used incendiary bombs to bombard our tunnels, and in an instant a raging fire broke out in front of each tunnel.

"Teng!" Another hot 'wave' rushed in, and the two volunteer soldiers and machine gunners stationed at the mouth of the tunnel did not rush to dodge, but were ignited by the flames that poured in, and in an instant the miserable screams filled the entire tunnel. The soldiers beside him hurriedly threw quilts and mud on the two soldiers who were on fire, and covered them again, and it took a while to extinguish the fire. But by this time, the two fighters were also dying.

Looking at the two soldiers who were burned to a blur and were still emitting green smoke and emitting a scorching smell all around, Zhang Mingxue and Xu Yongwei couldn't help but turn around and couldn't bear to look at it again. Even though they had experienced the War of Liberation, they had never seen such a tragic scene of sacrifice under incendiary bombs.

These are exactly what I want to say, the fortifications on the positive slope are facing the US military, just like a *** target under the US army, let them practice marksmanship, even the pit is no exception. And we are helpless against them because the enemy has the cover of tanks, and we can't even shoot at them. Because the mouth of the tunnel that did not collapse was also burning with fire at this time, we could not 'shoot' at the enemy through these dancing flames."

"Retreat!" Thinking of this, I immediately ordered: "All of them are there, and the anticline fortifications are withdrawn from the passage."

"Yes". The fighters did not say anything and did not ask anything. Even the battalion commander Hu Biao was the same, and without saying a word, he immediately carried out my order, lined up and drilled into the passage in an orderly manner.

The reaction of the fighters was beyond my expectations, and it was not the first time for me to use anti-slope fortifications to attack American troops. But for the first time for these fighters of the 38 regiment. This time I gave the order for them to retreat, always thinking that they would have some comments or questions to ask. But they were all silent, and the answer I had prepared long ago was held in my heart, and I was so panicked at this time!

Alas! In other words, the quality of this unit can be so good, it is really not a good thing! This is not? No one will cooperate with me in the next song,"

With a little depression, he followed the soldiers into the passage, followed by the frantic strafing of American tanks, machine guns and various weapons, and the sound of gunfire, explosions and the collapse of the tunnel resounded.

After walking in the dark tunnel for a while, the sound behind it became weaker and weaker, and finally only the sound of the warrior's breathing and the "horn" of his feet on the mud remained. So I thought to myself, the U.S. military didn't see us running out of the tunnel, they must have thought that we were all blown up in the tunnel. This time, I don't know how many people the U.S. military will kill the enemy on their merits!

To say that the number of casualties on both sides seen in modern data is very different from the statistics of the two warring sides, and it cannot be said that they are all deliberately exaggerating the number of deaths of the other side and concealing the number of deaths of the other side, but it is really very difficult to count the number of deaths of the other side on this battlefield, and there is basically no 'precision' to speak of. However, after a while, the soldiers drilled out of the passage and entered the anti-slope tunnel, and when they walked out of the tunnel and looked at the anti-slope fortifications, the soldiers had already braved the rain and were ready for battle in the fortifications.

This was the first time for the fighters to fight with an anticline, but it was not the case for me. Based on the experience of the previous battles, this time I made some corresponding improvements to the anticline fortifications. For example, the protrusions at the top of the hill that would block the warriors' 'shooting' were all manually leveled, and for example, in order to facilitate the defense of the ridge line. We artificially shoveled out an unclimbable wall on the side of the positive slope of the ridge line, if the U.S. military climbed up from the ridge line by a human ladder or other methods, the volunteers only needed to drop a few grenades down to easily solve the problem.

Even the positions of our troops on the anticline are no longer a line of defense, but four or five here near and far. There are seven or eight without any rules to speak of, but in terms of firepower they can form a complete line of defense. And it is matched according to the distance of the firepower 'firing' range.

If all the fighters in the position were still gathered on one line of defense as before, first, it would facilitate the bombing of enemy planes, and second, once the enemy had determined the position of our defensive line, he would be able to use mortars directly into our position on the other side to kill and wound our fighters.

Recent. The battle of the two ridges of the small male is a high ground where you can see two places at the same time. Since here you can observe the enemy's movement without *** yourself, and the grenade can be thrown into the enemy group with a casual flick. Therefore, it is the most important part of the anticline tactic. It is also a battleground for both offensive and defensive sides.

But the ridgeline of a high ground is not very long. There are even some high ground that do not have a ridge line in the actual sense at all, just like the 0 lead ridge line we are defending now is only about 20 meters long. In this position of more than 20 meters, we can only arrange one squad of soldiers to garrison, and if there are too many people, it will be crowded and difficult to perform. The fighters of another squad hid in the tunnels, ready to replace the wounded and killed fighters.

The main task of these soldiers guarding the ridge line is to observe the enemy's movements, report to us the enemy's position at any time, and throw grenades at the enemy. So around each of them were boxes of grenades. Only a few of them were armed with ***sha submachine guns in their hands to provide them with cover.

The second layer of fire is the fighters with submachine guns, and the places where the fighters of this layer are located are in the most dangerous positions. The 'firing' range of the Sha submachine gun was only two hundred meters, which determined that the distance from the top of the mountain could only be about one hundred meters. However, from my previous combat experience, I know that when the enemy lies on top of the mountain, he will often throw the grenade down the hill to a distance of 70 or 80 meters, and the reason for throwing it so far is because of the height difference and the inclination, and then the oval grenade will roll down drippingly, almost at a distance of 100 meters.

So in the second layer of firepower, I only arranged one platoon of troops. And they are widely spaced from each other in order to reduce unnecessary casualties.

The third layer is the main force of the anti-needle surface. Rifles, light machine guns, and heavy machine guns with a long range were all arranged here. They are mainly used for fire suppression and 'shooting' the enemy, and if necessary, fighters with rifles in their hands can also load bayonets to launch counter-charges. In order to prevent the soldiers from slipping under their feet when charging in the rain, I also asked the soldiers to lay a lot of small stones on the anti-slope.

"Captain Cui!" While I was waiting for the Yankees to climb up, I suddenly heard a Korean cry beside me. When I turned my head, it was Major Jin and Major An, and I was a little surprised that they didn't bring the Pan Ze named Li Xianhao this time.

"Hmm". When I found out that it was them, I couldn't help but ask, "What are you doing here?" Where's your Master Jin? Why don't you accompany him? ”

He replied with some embarrassment on his face: "Master Jin, he went to the coffee heights."

"Oh!" I couldn't help but smile bitterly just now, the high ground is the backyard, this Master Jin is afraid that he thinks that it is the safest there!

"We" Major Jin hesitated for a moment, and said with some difficulty: "We want to learn from Commander Cui your tactics to fight US imperialism, I don't know if it is possible."

"Of course you can!" Hearing this, I couldn't help but laugh and said, "Major Jin is the head of the Intelligence Section, you won't be sent by your Master Jin to spy on our tactics against US imperialism!" But to be honest, we originally wanted to teach you this tactic this time, so that we can fight US imperialism better and more powerfully, but I don't think your attitude seems to take us seriously, so,"

"Where, where! Let Captain Cui laugh! "Major King and Major Ann are both happy and embarrassed to hear me say this, and they are glad that they will soon learn our magic weapon against the Yankees. It's embarrassing that they didn't take this tactic into account, as I said, when a soldier on the ridge line waved at us with a small flag and told me that the Yankees were within range of our mortars.

Seeing this, I waved my hand to the foot of the hill, and the mortars were immediately ready to fire. It was the fourth layer of fire on the anti-slope fortifications, with a total of fifteen 'mortars'. By this time, the gunners had already pointed a shell at the muzzle of the gun, just waiting for my order.

"Put!" I waved my hand down, and as soon as the gunners let go, the shell slipped into the chamber. Then I heard a "chaotic" sound, and there was an explosion and screams on the opposite side. These mortars had already been adjusted for the opposite position before the US troops came up, so at this moment, when they 'fired' out, those shells hit the US troops screaming as if they had eyes. I only saw that Major Jin and Major An were stunned. The KPA fought against the US military. Because the reason why the equipment is at a disadvantage has always been beaten, I didn't expect this same equipment to be in our hands, but a change of tactics can make the US military suffer.

Then what made Major Jin and Major An incomprehensible was that the dozen or so soldiers standing on the ridge line threw grenades down one after another, causing the American troops on the other side to scream, and even those soldiers with submachine guns came out from time to time to hit a shuttle, but they couldn't see the American troops fighting back at all."

What surprised the two of them even more was when those American soldiers rushed up covered in mud and water. was shot down by the fighters a few times. The next situation was in response to the phrase that the gun shot the first bird, and the US military was knocked down when one head appeared, and one pair was knocked down when two heads appeared, and after a while, no one dared to come out again.

But they don't come out of the way, they don't get beaten, the mortars are fired at them, and the grenades of the soldiers in the bamboo knife cloud line are still flailing in rows and rows. I only listened to an explosion and a scream on the opposite side, and then an explosion and a scream, and after a while, I saw the observers on the ridge line waving a banner to tell us that the American troops had begun to retreat. But until now, there are only a few Yankees we have seen, and all the counterattacks of the US military are nothing more than a few grenades thrown at each other without a goal.

"This" Looking at this scene, Major Jin and Major An were stunned for a while. It took a long time to react and say: "When did US imperialism become so easy to fight? ”

"U.S. imperialism is not difficult to fight in the first place." Seeing this, I couldn't help laughing: "It's just that the method you used is wrong, they are strong in firepower." What is weak is the will to fight. You are so "heroic, and it is difficult to fight them head-to-head" in front of you.

Ignoring the stunned two as he spoke, he stood up and patted the muddy water on his body easily, and walked towards the regiment headquarters.

The cat walked in the pit for a while, and before he reached the regiment headquarters, he heard hearty laughter from inside.

"Did the U.S. troops really retreat like this?.

"What if you don't return it? Hold it over there and let us blow it up? ”

"Haha" good! Cui Wei, this kid, don't look at him, he doesn't seem to care about anything, he really has two hands in this fight! ”

"Who's speaking ill of me again?" I said as I strode into the pit.

"Who dares to speak ill of you!" Huang Xianhua laughed and said: "I said Comrade Xiao Cui, the battle has been fought like this, if anyone dares to say bad things about you, I will be the first to spare him!" ”

Then I heard someone say that I deliberately pretended to be old-fashioned and said, "Cui Wei, this kid, don't look at him as if he doesn't care about anything."

"Hmm, did anyone say that?" Huang Xianhua asked others in a confused manner: "It seems that I didn't hear it."

"I didn't hear it either". Jiang 'Chun' shook his head solemnly.

"I don't think I heard it!" Li Xiangming also denied it.

"It must be that Captain Cui misheard. Liu Shunyi's answer made me almost vomit blood.

"I said Comrade Xiao Cui." What's even more excessive is that Jiang 'Chun' Zeng also put on a look of relying on the old and selling the old to teach me: Xiao Cui! Even if someone says that about you, it can't be said to be bad! We are *** soldiers, so we must humbly accept the criticism of others. If what others criticize is right, let's correct it seriously. What if someone else is not criticizing it right? Then take it as a teaching

"Lao Jiang!" I unceremoniously interrupted Chief of Staff Chiang's words: "You just say, "If there is a change, if there is none, then it will be encouraged, isn't it okay?" Why beat around the bush like that? ”

"It turns out that Captain Cui also understands this truth!" Jiang 'Chun' laughed heavily, and everyone laughed too, and I knew that I had unknowingly fallen into a trap added by Jiang 'Chun'. I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly, I didn't expect this group of old guys to have the leisure to join forces to deal with me, a rookie, ".

"Captain Cui". In the end, it was Li Xiangming who first turned his words to the main topic: "Although we have heard of the anticline fortification in the past, and we also know that it has been tested in actual combat, we never thought that the anticline fortification would be so powerful. After the battle just now, we understand that if we continue to fight like this, as long as we have bullets, the enemy will not be able to pass."

"You can't say that!" Jiang 'Chun' said: "Any kind of tactic has its advantages, it will inevitably have disadvantages, and I think this anti-slope tactic is also like this!" ”

"Chief of Staff Chiang is right!" I nodded in agreement: "In fact, in actual combat, the anti-slope tactic also shows its weaknesses, one is that the enemy's planes can still bomb the anti-slope, and incendiary bombs can 'force' us into the tunnel." As long as their army and air force work well with each other. You could have sealed us up in the tunnel

"We don't have to worry about this for the time being!" Liu Shunyi replied: "The weather is not good, and it is difficult for enemy planes to take off, and even if several planes come to bomb, it is difficult to 'accurately' drop bombs under such poor visibility."

”

"Hmm!" I nodded, and I really didn't have to think about it for a while, because I knew that there would be at least one more rain to come. For more than 10 days, it continued until the North Korean flood flooded most of the roads.

"Another drawback". Looking at the map, I continued, "That's the anticline fortifications." The most feared thing is to be sidelined by the enemy. In this case, the anticline will become a positive incline! ”

"This. Shortcomings, Captain Cui, didn't you find a way to solve it? . Hearing this, Liu Shunyi couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "We have dug fortifications on both sides of the two relatively backward heights, and the forward and reverse slopes can be converted into each other "There is no problem with the two rear heights!" Hearing this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "But what about the side? Our heights are all east-west, and there is no need to worry about the KPA defense on our flanks now, once the US troops break through the KPA defense line, their artillery will be horizontal. You can hit any of our anticlines! ”

Hearing this, everyone was stunned, and they quickly understood that the biggest weakness of our position was on the flanks.
