※※※ Chapter 130 Supply Battle

Position No. 0 was successfully taken down by our army, and the defense of the enemy's No. 3 main peak position also quickly collapsed under the attack of our army on both sides, and then the volunteer soldiers relied on the No. 3 position to quickly expand the results to other positions, and the surface positions were restored one after another in the sound of guns and the shouts of the soldiers.

The sky gradually brightened, and amid the cheers of the soldiers, I slowly walked to it. In front of the pillbox of the position. The hero lies quietly on the ground, and the dense bullet holes on his body are shocking. But what strikes me as strange is that there is no blood visible under these guns.

I slowly shifted my gaze back, to the place where he had crawled, to the place where he had been lying on his stomach, and I quickly understood as I looked at the scorched earth that was 'mixed' with blood all the way. He was already seriously injured when he was lying on his stomach, and when he crawled to the bunker with his last breath, he had already sprinkled the last drop of blood on the way forward, but he was still dying, and when the blood on his body had been exhausted, he wrote this earth-shattering feat with his life.

Two hygienists came up, and they wept as they carefully laid the hero's body on a stretcher, silently carrying him down as if they were carrying a wounded man who had not yet died.

Yes, he's not dead! He still lives in the hearts of the warriors!

The hero fell, but the army had one more company, a company named after the hero, Huang Jiguang Company. Every night from now on, the company commander will first chant the glorious name of the first soldier: "Huang Jiguang" The whole company replied in unison: "Here!" ”

I didn't shed tears, I didn't speak, I just watched silently as they carried the stretcher down and then disappeared from my sight.

Because I know that this is the battlefield, and now is not the time to shed tears, nor is it the time to sympathize with my comrades.

On the battlefield of Shangganling, Huang Jiguang was not the only soldier who used his life to die with the enemy and used his blood to open the way for his comrades. In this land of only square kilometers, in just a few days, countless unknown soldiers have bravely sacrificed their lives.

In modern times, I have seen such materials. A veteran who once participated in the Battle of Shangganling said a sentence, he said that on Shangganling, it has become a norm for people like Huang Jiguang to block the eyes of guns and rush to the enemy with explosives, and it is already a very common thing!

Like all other veterans who have come down from the battlefield, this veteran's language is not grandiose, but rather spoken in a relaxed tone. I didn't even realize the true meaning of these words, nor did I care about the meaning behind this light-hearted sentence.

But now I understand, I understand how unusual this "normality" is, how unusual this "ordinary" is, and at the same time, what a heavy heart is behind the veteran's relaxed words!

"The enemy has retreated!" Someone from the volunteer army shouted.

There was no need for an order, the warriors knew what it meant. The retreat of the enemy meant that they would soon shell our positions, so the fighters left some of the soldiers in charge of the vigilance and retreated towards the mouth of the tunnel like a 'tide'.

"Company Commander Li!" When I returned to the command, the first thing I said was: "You guys fought well, and I will report your heroic feats to my superiors." Now that your mission is complete, you can withdraw at the first opportunity! ”

But at this time, Company Commander Li and Wang Wenyong glanced at each other and were silent.

"Now is the time for enemy shelling!" I continued: "The enemy usually bombards continuously for an hour or so, and at this time it may be more difficult to go down, and there will be some unnecessary casualties. I suggested: "You are about to charge our positions at the end of the enemy bombardment." Retreat when we go up! It was probably the safest time. But I hope you can leave *** and supplies behind before you go."

"Chief of Staff!" Before I could finish speaking, Li Baocheng stood up and said, "You are all fighting like this, how can we still withdraw?" So, aren't we deserters? ”

"Yes! Chief of staff! Wang Wenyong also said: "When we first came, we didn't know that the situation was so critical, the Yankees would be so fierce, and I think the superiors didn't know that this was the case, so there was an order for us to withdraw after the counterattack was successful!" But now, I find it extremely irresponsible for us to carry out the order to retreat again! ”

"Instructor Wang is right!" Li Baocheng clenched his fist and slammed it on the table: "The chief of staff is full of scattered soldiers from various units, and the number is not large, if we just retreat like this, the position may soon be pressed back by the enemy." Last night, our 8th Company paid the lives of more than 80 soldiers to recapture the surface position, and we can't let their blood be shed in vain, and we can't let them die in vain! Chief of Staff, let's stay here! We reported to our superiors and applied to our superiors to stay: "Stay on Shangganling and obey the command of the chief of staff!" "Door" "Hmm". I nodded.

In fact, this situation was expected by me.

When you fall in love, when one party pays for the other, you will be reluctant. If you give something, you will hope to be rewarded, which is the natural 'nature' of human beings. Therefore, the more you pay, the more you can't give up. Therefore, when smart people 'make' 'girlfriend' friends, they usually don't blindly give, but find ways to make 'girlfriend' friends pay something!

In the same way, Li Baocheng's ace army did not pay many casualties when it first came up, so it had no feelings for the land under their feet, and it was very simple for them to retreat at that time, as long as they gave an order to leave. But now, after they have paid heavy casualties, it is not so easy to retreat.

They will think that those sacrificed comrades-in-arms will associate the sacrifice of their comrades-in-arms with this land, so they will have feelings, so they don't want this land that was exchanged for blood and life to be recaptured by the enemy, so, ",

"Stay!" I nodded and said, "Shangganling needs you here, and the Five Sacred Stops also need you to be stationed here, and I think the superiors will seriously consider our suggestion."

"Great!" Li Baocheng and Wang Wenyong saluted me in unison: "We will immediately arrange for a correspondent to report the situation to the superiors!" ”

"Chief of Staff". When Li Baocheng and Wang Wenyong walked out of the command post, Instructor Qin came up and asked, "Do we still have to hold on to the surface position today?" The warriors have been fighting all night, from ten o'clock last night until dawn, and now

"How long will we have enough food in the tunnel?" I asked.

At this time, it is not up to me to decide whether to fight or not, but by the grain in the tunnel. If there is food in the tunnel, you can not fight, but if there is no food, you have to fight!

The strong fortifications built by the American troops in the surface positions are still vivid, and we paid a heavy price last night, and a few heroes who sacrificed their lives to blow up the pillboxes and block the bullet holes also emerged, so that the surface positions were taken down. If this allows the U.S. forces to easily seize the surface positions and give them time to build fortifications, we are afraid that we will no longer be able to recover our positions.

"Big sigh" is enough for us to eat for four or five days! Instructor Qin thought for a moment and replied hesitantly. "What? Why is there so little poison? I was not taken aback by this.

"Chief of Staff!" Instructor Qin said with some embarrassment: "If you want to fight, you have to transport ***, and if you want to transport ***, there will naturally be less grain."

"Hmm". When I heard this, I realized that I had unknowingly fallen into a vicious 'sexual' cycle.

In order for us to be able to smoothly transport the grain, we must hold our positions or restore the surface positions at night, and to hold or restore the surface positions, *** is the foundation. To transport so much food, under the same conditions, the transportation of grain can only be reduced.

"Send a correspondent to report to your superiors immediately!" Thinking of this, I immediately ordered: "Let the superiors try to send a batch of food before dusk tonight, if necessary, you can only send food without ***!" And immediately reduce the rations of the fighters, and prepare to hold the tunnel for a month! ”

"Chief of Staff!" Hearing this, Instructor Qin couldn't help but be surprised: "Don't send ***" This, how can this work?.

I understand what Instructor Qin meant. On the battlefield, sometimes *** is much more important than food. Because with *** there is the capital to fight with the enemy, and with *** can you protect your own life, if your life is gone, then what do you need food?

And now for us, there is no ***, which means that we will be blocked in the tunnel by the US military.

"Go ahead!" I patted Instructor Qin on the shoulder. A little helplessly, he said, "Just do as I say."

"Yes". When Instructor Qin saw that I insisted, he had no objection, saluted me and went down.

Looking at the back of Instructor Qin leaving, I couldn't help but sigh.

The reason why I gave this order is because I know that even if we transport *** to Shangganling again, it will inevitably be a situation where *** will be insufficient and too many casualties will be abandoned in a few days.

Seven days! This was the time in history when our army and the US army repeatedly fought for surface positions. During these seven days, the surface positions changed hands several times and were repeatedly contested between the Feng Division of our Volunteer Army and the US Seventh Division. In the end, it was because our army was blocked by the US army's firepower, and the troops could not be replenished and gave up the battle for the surface position, and the Shangganling War entered the second stage.

Now, "because I have been hiding in the tunnel for a long time, I have no sense of time, and I can't tell how many days it has been since the war in Shangganling." It's the fourth day! It's not far from the seven days in history. But I know that if my superiors agree that my report will only send food to the position tonight and not ***, then from tonight, we will have to give up *** and enter the second stage.

You can't *** without ***, and whoever knows that very well.

I took a sip of the cold boiled water on the table, and I sat back down on the bed. After a night of fierce fighting with the enemy, I was very tired from the exertion of physical strength and 'spirit' strength. I didn't think much of it when I was discussing things just now, but now that I am relaxed, I feel like the bones in my whole body are falling apart. After a while, he fell asleep in a blur amid the rumbling of enemy cannons.

The cannon fire stopped abruptly, and I immediately woke up.

Some people may wonder how I react. I can sleep in the sound of cannons. Now that the sound of the cannons has stopped and the surroundings are quiet, how can it be 'excited' in the ring?

I guess this is just an adaptation to a state! Anyone who has ever fallen asleep in a car knows that when you fall asleep while the car is running, the rumbling sound of the motor and the sonorous sound of the windows vibrating will become a lullaby, and once the car stops, it will wake people up.

Now I was in a similar situation, and as soon as the cannon fire stopped, I quickly realized that the enemy was about to charge, so I could not hesitate to grab my rifle and run out of the tunnel.

"Whew"

As soon as he ran out of the tunnel, he heard a strange scream in the sky. A U.S. CORSAIR FIGHTER ROARED OVER OUR HEADS.

When I looked up, I couldn't help but be startled, the sky was densely packed with US planes, at least 30 or 40 of them, like a bunch of flies circling around our two heights.

From time to time, a few planes swooped down on us, and it was a strafing 'shot'! Some even dropped bombs directly at the mouth of the pit of our army"

"Get into position!" Seeing this, I couldn't help but shout at the soldiers.

The enemy's intentions were obvious, they hoped to prevent our troops from entering positions with a large number of aircraft bombardment, or to kill and injure the living forces of our troops to relieve the pressure on their attack.

Unlike artillery, the cannon rarely hits the anti-slope because of the curve angle, and it causes the danger of accidental injury when it hits the positive slope. But there is no such problem with airplanes, and skilled pilots can accurately dump bullets and bombs on the anticline. And the only thing that can make them have some scruples is the hilltop position.

The area of the hilltop position is very large, and if the planes operating at high speed do not grasp it well, they will often hit bullets and bombs at the US troops who are charging on the positive slope. So I'm guessing. At this time, it was safe on the hilltop position.

Sure enough, when I led the soldiers all the way up to the hilltop position, despite the whistling of enemy planes overhead, they no longer dared to drop bombs on us. Ran to the nine-towering position and lay down, poked his head out and went down, but he took a breath of cool air.

More than 40 tanks were densely packed at the foot of the mountain, and due to the terrain restrictions, they could not carry out a group assault, so they simply approached to 'shoot' and used as a battery and machine gun fort. In front of them. It was a group of U.S. soldiers who were heavily armed and holding all kinds of weapons and cautiously approached us. A rough estimate of three times is at least five or six hundred.

This time, I almost wondered if these Yankees in front of me were crazy, and they did not hesitate to invest such blood for the sake of these two inconspicuous high grounds. Not to mention the planes and tanks in front of me, I don't know how many shells they have to consume because of the almost uninterrupted artillery blockade carried out in the past few days in order to block the transportation routes for our army's reinforcements and replenishment of food and ammunition.

On other battlefields, of course, the casualties of the US army were greater than those of our army, but in this war, I believe that the casualties of the US army were far greater than ours. I remember that modern sources record that after the war, the US prisoners confessed that each battalion and company of the 18 battalions that participated in the battle on Shangganling took turns to fight two or three times. Some regiments suffered more than half of the casualties in one day, and in some companies, only one or two people survived.

I really can't understand why the U.S. military, which has always attached great importance to the lives of its subordinates, is reluctant to leave these two "chicken" ribs here, small!

Although the geographical location of these two highlands is very important. But even if they can occupy Shangganling, what can they do? They didn't wipe out us hiding in the tunnels, didn't they dare to attack the Five Holy Mountains?

But thinking about it, I quickly understood.

Van Vliet can't afford to lose that guy!

Van Vliet is known as an expert in mountain warfare, how can he lose to the almost primitive Chinese in this mountainous area? Of course not! Therefore, he did not care about the casualties of the US troops at all, and did not hesitate to send a large number of planes, artillery, tanks, and troops to the two small heights of Shangganling.

As everyone knows. These planes, artillery, tanks and troops. As long as you change to any position, you can fight a big battle and achieve greater results.

Clark can't afford to lose that guy either!

This new commander-in-chief of the joint *** is bent on surpassing his predecessor Ridgway, and has made other achievements on the Korean battlefield. How could he easily admit defeat in his first battle after taking office? Of course not! So he also lost the cool head that a commander should have, and let Van Vliet do a big job.

Although Van Vliet had long been proven wrong, because Van Vliet's battle plan clearly stated that he would only need two battalions of troops to take these two heights.

It should be said that this is an opportunity for our army. A great opportunity to annihilate the enemy.

On the battlefield, employing people to fight for people is the favorite thing for volunteer soldiers to do, not to mention that the casualties of the US army are still greater than ours. If our army continues to persist in this way, there is no doubt that it will be the US military that will collapse and admit defeat in the end. It is even very possible that the US military will be because of this today. Wrong decisions have lost a large number of living forces and will be at a disadvantage in future battles. But unfortunately, our army's supply lines are too fragile, and we are destined to not be able to grasp this opportunity well.

"Ready to fight". Looking at the U.S. troops moving faster and closer on the hillside, I shouted orders to the soldiers.

Shangganling is destined to be red with blood again.
