Chapter 22: Retreat

In the afternoon, the defensive line, which had been silent for several hours, suddenly burst into gunfire and artillery fire. This time, the sound of gunfire was different from previous enemy attacks. The previous gunfire was always one after another, intermittent, but this time, it was the entire front that erupted in dense gunfire at the same time.

This made me realize a little bit very quickly. The U.S. military has already discovered that the main KPA forces have retreated.

When the enemy discovers this, he can get at least two pieces of information: first, their strangulation battle has played a role, and the KPA has appeared to be insufficient, otherwise it is impossible for the main force of the KPA to retreat in this situation that has already blocked their attack. Second, on the high ground in front of them, there were only a few KPA troops who served as cover, so they could attack with confidence. So with a rush of fire prepared. The joint *** howled and rushed towards the high ground with his rifle in hand.

This time, it was the US military that rushed to our high ground, and some people said that the US military would always keep the credit for themselves. Throwing the desperate work to the puppet army, it seems that this is really the case now. In the past, when they were fighting vicious battles and hard battles, they didn't see the American troops rushing up a few times, and now they thought that the enemy's main force had retreated. So I ran ahead of the curve.

As for the puppet army? I can also understand their helplessness. After all, the U.S. military is here to help them fight, and they have also supplied a lot of military materials for free! If it weren't for the U.S. military, where would they be able to hold out in this war, so let the U.S. military "grab the credit" for what they would dare to say.

At this time, the U.S. troops were also very funny, and they didn't even care about the stragglers in formation, and they rushed to the high ground in groups of three or five with guns over the tanks. But they soon discovered that something was wrong. Because the shells and bullets that were 'fired' from the enemy's position did not show the slightest sign of insufficiency, when they ran up to the top of the mountain to look down at the rain of bullets and bullets with the mentality of luck, they were immediately stunned The firepower of the volunteer soldiers on the anticline was not less than before.

"Bang bang bang gunshot. Dozens of U.S. troops rushed to the top of the hill for a moment. Without exception, they were hit to the ground by the dense fire of the soldiers. If anything, it's that some of them roll to the anticline and some to the orthogonal. Immediately after, a bullhorn sounded. Fighters near the top of the hill threw dozens of grenades in the other direction. Although you can't see the enemy in this way, it can form a grenade barrage on the positive slope, which can effectively slow down the enemy's charge.

After this row of grenades was thrown out. The Yankees were never seen coming out again. It only took more than 20 minutes from the beginning to the end before the US troops were beaten back in disgrace, and most of them were delayed in walking and climbing the mountain during these 20 minutes. I think this time their puppet allies will definitely be secretly happy in their hearts.

We, the highlands, solved the battle so easily, but the highlands garrisoned by the KPA were full of dangers. I raised my binoculars at the mouth of the tunnel and looked at the KPA position, because their main position was also on the anticline, so I could easily see how they were fighting here.

The retreat of the large forces has given them the appearance of insufficient troops, or they are also worried about the lack of ammunition and saving ammunition, so the firepower is no longer enough to suppress the enemy's charge on the front slope. For anti-slope tactics, insufficient troops and insufficient firepower are fatal, because building fortifications on the anti-slope can be said to give up the commanding heights to the enemy.

Once the troops and firepower on the anticline are insufficient, as long as the puppet army occupies the strength of the crowd and rushes down condescendingly with bayonets,"

But fortunately, these soldiers left behind by the People's Army are also veterans who can fight, and they are not afraid in the face of an enemy several times their size, and they even raised their bayonets and launched a counter-charge against the puppet army. Suddenly, there was a sword light, screams came and went, and the blood soon stained the whole red. Inclined plane.

Judging by the skill and courage of fighting bayonets, the fighters of the KPA are clearly superior to the puppet army. They know to charge forward while maintaining a line of battle with the warriors around them. Just like hand-to-hand combat in ancient times, staying on the front means that the fighters at your side will protect your weak flanks and backs. And look at those puppet armies. The entire storm formation was messy and chaotic, and it was the result of rushing down like this. That is, although there are many puppet soldiers, in some parts of the salient, there will be a situation where one puppet army has to face two or three, the soldiers of the People's Army.

After all, the People's Army fought guerrilla warfare with Little Japan during World War II. I couldn't help but admire when I saw this. Just like now, even if they are small in number and at a disadvantaged low level, they still successfully block the momentum of the puppet army. A flesh-and-blood front was soon formed on the anticline.

Bayonets, rifle butts, fists, teeth" Both sides are using all their strength to kill each other with everything on their hands and bodies. Compared with the shootout, such a primitive war is the most cruel and terrifying. Although I have had such experience in hand-to-hand combat before, the so-called authorities are 'confused'. At that time, I was in the middle of the war, and I was only thinking about how to kill the enemy in front of me, and I didn't think about being afraid. But now from the perspective of a third party, these people who are in 'hand-to-hand' combat can't help but feel a chill on their bodies."

"Boom!" There was a loud bang.

What stunned me was that a large group of people in the aperture of the telescope suddenly exploded with a burst of gunsmoke, countless limbs and organs rose into the air, and blood flew everywhere like a scoop of watermelons that had been blown up. When the smoke of gunpowder dispersed in the rain, there were still dozens of people praying to each other and desperately, and it was as if they had been pressed by a giant hand, and they never knew the generation. It can even be said that no one is complete" of course. Except for the fighters who were only knocked to the ground by the shock 'wave' from a few tens of meters away.

This is the power of the 'medicine' pack, I couldn't help but be a little dumbfounded when I saw this, just now I thought I was already in an ancient primitive battlefield, but this loud noise immediately made me realize the horror of modern weapons.

Then, before I could react from the bloody scene just now, another explosion came from the position of the People's Army, and it was another *** corpse, a *** bloodstain,

The two armies fought hand-to-hand battles, and they were very close to each other, so each explosion always claimed the lives of dozens of fighters. There are puppet army and people's army, and of course, there are more puppet army in this. It is this method of exchanging lives for the soldiers of the KPA that they are desperate to exchange the sacrifices of a few for the casualties of the majority of the enemy.

Then there was another explosion, this time the puppet army finally couldn't hold it anymore, they screamed as if they saw the devil and turned around and ran, and even some of the puppet soldiers were so frightened that their feet were weak and collapsed to the ground, watching the bayonets of the People's Army stab at them!

"The comrades of the People's Army also fought heroically!" Liu Shunyi, who was also observing the battle situation beside him, said: "It's just that they still can't last long, I hope they can hold out until dark."

I understand what Liu Shunyi meant, the People's Army on the high ground next to us can fight so tenaciously, it does not mean that the entire People's Army on the defense line can fight like this, on this eight-kilometer-long defense line, as long as a high ground is broken by the enemy, it means that the joint *** can go around to the rear of the defense line to launch a three-sided attack on the People's Army, and then the defense line of the People's Army will collapse like dominoes.

If only they could keep it until dark. Then these KPA fighters may have a chance to escape with their familiarity with the terrain, otherwise,

At this time, the volunteer soldier who was standing on the ridge line and was in charge of observing waved the flag twice downward, telling us that the enemy had begun to attack again.

Don't think about it. This time it must be a puppet army. The U.S. military knows that we are a hard bone, and they must have lost this life-saving job to the puppet army.

Without looking at it, I took Liu Shunyi and turned around and walked into my regimental headquarters, an anticline fortification like this. Even if the weather is good, it will be difficult for the US military to break through with the cooperation of the plane, isn't there a US chief of staff who looked at the tunnel fortifications of the volunteers and lamented? He said, "At this rate." It will take at least twenty years for the US military to reach the Yalu River! ”

With the current weather, the air of the US army cannot be dispatched, the artillery movement is difficult and it is impossible to 'shoot' accurately, plus the volunteers ***, the food is enough to last until the reinforcements come, and the soldiers also know how to deal with the puppet army's oil drum offensive, so I can almost ignore an attack like the current one of the Combine Army. I'm afraid that after the People's Army can't hold it. Gave *** out of our weak flanks. But this seems to be unavoidable.

"Captain Cui!" As soon as I sat down, Jiang Chunzeng handed over a telegram and said: "The headquarters is very supportive of our stationing, and strictly orders us to hold on until reinforcements arrive. The command instructed: If our army also retreats, it is very likely that the main force of the KPA will be in the situation of our army during the five battles, and when there is no ammunition and no food, it will be pursued and beaten by the US army all the way, and the consequences will be unimaginable. Commander Wang also gave special instructions: Whether the army can turn over or not" whether the division can correct its name depends on this battle, and it must be fought like a first-class soldier! ”

"Chief of Staff Chiang". Deputy Regiment Commander Liu raised his worries: "Of course, we have to fight, but difficulties are still in front of us

"Hmm! Is it a comrade of the People's Army?" he couldn't help frowning when he heard that Jiang 'Chun' had increased.

%, ten thousand

"Hmm!" I nodded and said: "The situation of the comrades of the People's Army is not optimistic, and the biggest difficulty now before us is that the flanks will soon be lost, and then there will be no more advantages in the anticline

"Captain Cui!" Hearing this, Li Shenming couldn't help but suggest: "I think we'd better prepare early." Take advantage of the fact that the KPA position has not yet been lost, and build a new position on our side! ”

"It's useless!" Hearing this, I couldn't help but shake my head: "We have already dug several anti-tank trenches on our flanks, and we have also planted mines in the anti-tank trenches, so it is difficult to build a position again." And even if a position is constructed, it is useful, not to mention that such a position cannot block the enemy's artillery fire without the cover of the tunnel. Enemy shells could still cross the position without fear and hit our anti-slope fortifications. At that time, there will be enemy artillery bombardment on the flanks and enemy attacks on the front."

Reports. At this time, a communicator's shout suddenly came from outside the tunnel: "The enemy's tanks are coming."

"What is there to fuss about enemy tanks!" Hearing this, Liu Shunyi couldn't help but scold: "Have you never seen a tank or what?" Is this also to report? ”

"No," the correspondent nervously said: "this time the enemy's tank" came from behind! ”

"What?" Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but be surprised, and all of them poured out of the pit with a shout.

"There". The correspondent seemed to be taken aback by our position. He was stunned for a moment before pointing in the direction of the KPA position.

I raised my binoculars and looked in that direction, and sure enough, it was a tank. Not much, but only two. And they are all "Xiafei" light tanks, and there are not many infantry around them. There is only one battalion, but this is enough to say that the KPA defense line is broken through by the enemy, and the ensuing battle situation is exactly as we originally thought, where the enemy's tanks went. As if devastated, the heights of the People's Army were captured one by one. What they had to do seemed very simple. Every time they reach a high ground. Attack by radioing allies in front of you.

At this time, the KPA stationed on the anticline only had two choices, one was to drill out of the tunnel and enter the anticline fortifications to face the battle, but this would undoubtedly have to face the enemy in front and rear, especially the two light tanks in their rear. The KPA will no longer have any strong resistance.

The second. The choice is not to come out of the tunnel, so that you can avoid the attack of the tank troops. But the puppet army troops coming up from the front will soon occupy the anti-slope fortifications, and then seal the mouth of the tunnel with firepower, and then "the tunnel of the People's Army was built in a hurry, and there is not much depth, so it is not difficult to imagine what will happen next."

Tank motors rumbled, and high-flying machine guns frantically fired at KPA positions. The bullet casings jumped out one after another like sunburned beans, and the puppet army troops who followed the tank also 'shot' at the KPA soldiers with various weapons.

%, ten thousand

The fortifications of the KPA are high in front and low in the back because of the slope. Its main defensive direction is the front, and the back is basically unobstructed, so the People's Army that drilled out of the tunnel to resist soon became the target of those puppet armies and fell under the enemy's guns one after another. Even "Xia Fei." The 10,000-millimeter cannon on the tank also played a great role, and each shot could always blow up several KPA fighters.

A 10,000-meter-caliber artillery, even a millimeter-caliber mortar in the hands of the volunteers is more powerful than it. This tank can play such a big role now, if the developers knew about it, they would be so proud that they would crawl out of the coffin.

The pressure and morale blow brought to the People's Army by the tank units of this puppet army was incomparable, and it only took a short time for the puppet army to capture three heights one after another. The gap in the KPA line of defense is getting bigger and bigger, and the puppet army is like a flood that bursts the embankment, rushing towards the gap frantically. This also made that tank unit more and more numerous, more and more powerful, and more morale. In the end, they didn't even need the cover of tanks, and they rushed towards our high ground in droves.

On the other hand, the People's Army. No matter how heroic they were, they had to admit that defeat was already a foregone conclusion. Some of them were still hiding in the tunnels, some ran into the forest before the enemy troops arrived, and some raised their hands.

For a while, the scene was 'chaotic' and 'chaotic' in the field of vision of our telescope, and the puppet army pursued and killed the fleeing People's Army everywhere. Or throw grenades and explosives into the pit where the People's Army is still hidden, or even aim their guns at the People's Army who have already surrendered.

These puppet troops have been carried away by victory, and they are rushing towards our high ground without any cover or any warning, densely packed, like a flood that swells from within when the 'tide' rises.

In their eyes, all these high ground in front of them are the same; in their minds. Now wherever they go, where the troops will soon collapse. But they soon found out that they were wrong, and they were very wrong, and the price of this mistake was that they never got a second chance wrong.

"Hit!"

When those puppet armies approached our high ground like headless flies, I gave an order. The soldiers on the Tian Heights, the Four Heights, and the Four Heights pulled the trigger on the targets they had already aimed at almost at the same time, and suddenly a dense burst of gunfire rang out from the positions.

Although the position of the puppet army is now in the weak flank of our army, the weakness of our position is also relative to the artillery of the US army, and the three heights in the front, middle and rear of our army have naturally formed a 'cross' firepower for these puppet troops, and these puppet troops with only light weapons in their hands have broken in without a head and no brains. That's not a big ***.

Light machine guns, submachine guns, and rifles were fired at the puppet army groups that were still rushing forward, and mortars were also unceremoniously smashed at the puppet army, only to cause the puppet army to fly with blood and flesh and corpses all over the field.

They don't understand until they die, the front of the People's Army seems to have collapsed on all fronts, how can such a strong firepower suddenly emerge from the position,

However, these puppet soldiers may have escaped and escaped their skills, and the situation was not right when they followed. Immediately turned around and ran back. Only the two "Xiafei" tanks seemed to be a little unconvinced, relying on the fact that the volunteers did not have long-range anti-tank weapons.

At this time, there was a strange scene, because it was blocked by the ridges of other heights, and the turret on the tank turned left and right, and there was no way to aim at our anticline position, unless it drove very close to our position, and through the gap between the high grounds, it was able to fire at our anticline position, but it did not have the courage to drive the tank so close to our position",

Seeing this, I couldn't help but pat my head: drip! How did I ignore this! Now we have a way to strengthen our flanks.
