"Hey! It's only been a few days. It's a big change, it's all Soviet-style equipment! ”

When marching with the troops. I took a cursory look at the soldiers' equipment. It was found that the rifles in the hands of the fighters were all Soviet-made Mosin Nagant, the submachine guns were replaced with all 'colored' *** sha, and the machine guns were except for a small number of Czech ones. Basically, they were replaced with turntable light machine guns and Golyunov heavy machine guns.

Although I had been prepared for a long time, I was still a little surprised to see that all the weapons in the hands of the soldiers had changed. This also made the American equipment in the hands of Chen Liang and me a little unexpected

。

"It's all old guns!" Huzi said with some dissatisfaction: "At first, I also grabbed a submachine gun, but I couldn't go far with that thing when I tried it." It's not up to the mark, so I changed the rifle and used it, and after a few hits, it wasn't much stronger than the 38 big cover! ”

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, the rifles sold to us by the Soviet Union are indeed not good things, and the Soviet army at this time is also going to change its equipment, and they have to gradually replace the standard weapons with Di Ban So they sold us all the broken guns that were used in World War II and were supposed to be thrown into the melting furnace as scrap iron and melted.

However, this does not seem to be able to prevent the big brother of the Soviet Union, the volunteer army is a million-strong army! This time, we must unify the voice. Let the USSR produce so many new weapons to equip with.

The biggest advantage after the refitting is that the caliber of the weapon is the same, and these Soviet-style rifles, machine guns, and heavy machine gun bullets are all universal. The Sand submachine gun is the same as the bullet of the pistol. Compared with the all-nation-made weapons used by the Chinese Volunteers in the past, the unification of ammunition can greatly reduce the pressure on logistics and supply, and also greatly reduce the complexity of the bomb making and supply systems.

In other words, in the future, domestic arsenals only need to produce two kinds of bullets, one is rifle bullets and the other is pistol bullets.

There is no need to distinguish between what troops and what calibers to send to the front line, just carry these two bullets up.

"Our tiger company commander!" At this time, Zhao Yongxin said on the side: "He is sympathetic to his subordinates, and he leaves all the good guns to his subordinates."

"I'm not lazy, Huzi!" Hearing this, I couldn't help but say to Huzi with some surprise: "When did you become a company commander!" ”

"Hey! Isn't that the credit of following your son to fight devils? Huzi smiled and said, "According to me." It doesn't matter if you are a company commander or a platoon commander, as long as you fight with our deputy battalion commander Cui, you can be a small soldier. Don't want anything else, just want to be happy with the devil! ”

"Hey! I said, when will you also use your crooked brain? Zhao Yongxin quipped on the side: "Look at him, although he said so, he must want to make more meritorious contributions to Deputy Battalion Commander Cui, so that he can rise faster!" ”

"What are you talking about? Besides, I'm going to turn my face! Huzi was not happy to hear this, a pair of tiger eyes glared, and said unconvinced: "You are embarrassed to say that when you were injured, Regiment Commander Chu was going to transfer you to another battalion as a company commander, who was stunned and refused to come?" You, you still think I don't know? ”

"Then I'm not reluctant to give up on you?" Zhao Yongxin pretended to be weird, which only made the soldiers laugh. Even the newly joined fighters such as Chen Liang and Ren Fengyou couldn't help laughing.

Chen Liang and Ren Feng were still a little restrained by these new soldiers, but the so-called laughter is less strange, and our battalion has these living treasures joking, coming and going, so that they quickly adapt to our troops. There are even people who take the initiative to join in the joke.

"That's right, Company Commander Zhao!" Then I asked Zhao Yongxin suspiciously: "Where are we here?" What's the mission this time? ”

"I don't know!" Zhao Yongxin replied: "Originally, the task of our battalion was to penetrate and 'intersperse' to Daofeng Mountain and guard there. Later, I heard that the friendly troops were overwhelmed by the enemy in the Imjin River, isn't this? Let our regiment go around behind the enemy and stab him. ”

"Huh? Captain Chu, are they also there? ”

"Hmm!" Zhao Yongxin nodded: "They took another path, they should have arrived!" It is said that the destination is called Castle Hill, the battalion commander should know better, why don't you ask him? ”

"Castle Hill?" I couldn't help but be surprised when I heard this, *** I'm going to meet my old opponent now.

As soon as I heard the name of Castle Hill and thought that we were in the vicinity of Yizheng Fǔ right now, I understood that this time it was the troops of the 29th Brigade of the British Army that we were going to deal with.

On the banks of the Imjin River, it was supposed to be the Wangjun of the Volunteers, and according to the original plan, they were supposed to arrive in Seoul within hours of the 'medicine'. But I didn't expect that the combat effectiveness of the British prisoner brigade on the other side of the river was very strong, and the volunteers were held up here for three days and three nights, and finally although they completely annihilated the Gloucester battalion, they let the United Army buy time to redeploy a defensive line.

Analysis of post-war military strategists. If it weren't for the stubborn resistance of the Gross battalion here for three days, it is very likely that the fifth battle would have taken the joint *** by surprise again and captured Seoul to achieve greater results. After all, how could Ridgway and Van Vliet never think that this time there were hundreds of thousands of volunteers, and all of them were equipped with Soviet-style weapons.

Castle Hill was not far away, and the warriors arrived at their destination after a rapid march of more than two hours under the sound of dense gunfire. In the night, looking at the towering heights in front of you, it is easy to guess which is the castle mountain, because it is very special, although it is not high, but it is very steep, just like a castle built by Western European movies and ink, a river and several wet roads are an easy to defend and difficult to attack the highland, but unfortunately this highland is now in the swoop, up.

After the password. We lined up and walked into the camp, there were no trenches or sandbags, and the soldiers seemed to have just arrived, but to my surprise, there were many wounded soldiers and corpses, and the camp was full of blood and corpses, and it looked like they had just gone through a fierce battle.

Soon I saw the familiar figure of Regiment Commander Chu, who was standing at the mouth of an air-raid 'hole' and scolding someone with his hands crossed.

Xu Feng beckoned to me, and ran up with me in three steps and two steps, and the two shouted a report in front of Commander Chu, who just nodded his head casually and pointed at the volunteer soldier who was holding his head angrily: "Your mistake directly led to more than 100 casualties, this irresponsible attitude has caused very serious consequences, and it has also brought a very bad impact on our troops, you should reflect on your mistakes."

"Huh?" At this time, Chen Ye, who had just walked out of the air-raid 'shelter', saw me and couldn't help but say with some surprise: "It's Deputy Battalion Commander Cui, are you still alive?" When did you come back? ”

"Report the commissar. Just here! I replied with a 'stand up'.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Cui?" At this time, Captain Chu found me standing aside, stared at me for a while, and then scolded again: "Qiu, why didn't you come earlier?" We've all lost a hundred or so people, you know? ”

"Huh?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and I was scolded a little inexplicably.

"I said Lao Chu. Just let go of Xiao Zhao! Chen Ye persuaded on the side: "This matter can't be blamed on others, who made your 'sex' anxious, and went up with the troops before the situation was clarified!" Come on, come on, everybody go in and talk! ”

As he spoke, he pulled Commander Chu and a few of us into the air-raid 'hole', the air raid 'hole' was on fire, very bright and warm, just like what I had seen in the past, there was a table with shell box racks, two simple benches nailed with wooden boards, and a map was placed on the table as usual, with a kerosene lamp hanging on it, and a worn-out tooth cup next to it, and the hot water contained in it was slowly steaming out.

"Flip Ze, translate a ball!" Commander Chu's anger didn't seem to have completely subsided, and after entering the 'hole', he sat on a small stool and scolded again: "It also said that the enemy has only one company." The troops pulled up a dozen and there was a regiment! ”

Saying that maybe his mouth was scolded, the head of Chu picked up the cup sullenly and poured it into his mouth, although Xu Feng and I were suspicious but didn't dare to ask more, and I didn't know what to say, so I had to stand aside awkwardly.

"What a thing!" Chen Ye looked at the map for a while, then pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and explained: "When we first arrived here, the scout caught a sentry of the enemy, and when he asked if it was the British, the 29th Brigade of the British Army. Say what "Gloucester battalion." Asked him how many people were in front of him, he said that there was a company, and Commander Chu didn't want to call two companies casually and went up, but he didn't expect that the British army guarding the front almost had a regiment, and after this battle, it didn't take long for us to be killed and wounded. Later, I asked clearly, it turned out that there was a wing of the British army guarding in front, and Xiao Zhao regarded a wing as a company! ”

Hearing this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, no wonder the head of Chu was stunned that he shouted at me just now, "Why didn't you come earlier!" "It turned out that there was a problem with the translation.

"Now we have finally 'figured' the enemy's situation!" Chen Ye lit a cigarette, pointed to the map at us, and said: "In front of us is the British Gloucester Battalion, which is stationed on Castle Hill in Ma Heights." To their left was the battalion of the Royal rifle regiment which we had 'engaged', and to the right was the Amberland Rifle Regiment and a small number of Belgian troops. Our main task is to lay down the Gloucester battalion and clear the way forward for the comrades of the Usushi Army! ”

"How does this Gloucester battalion compare to the rifle regiment?" Xu Feng couldn't help but ask, last time our regiment also 'fought' with the rifle regiment and the British Royal Tank Battalion near Yizheng Fǔ, and the combat effectiveness of the rifle regiment is still fresh in my memory.

"Only high, not low!" Political Commissar Chen Ye couldn't help frowning: "The comrades of our two companies rushed forward without knowing the situation. More than 100 people were killed and wounded in just half an hour, and it seems that this Gloucester battalion is not easy to deal with! ”

"More than 100 people were killed or injured in half an hour?" Hearing this, even Xu Feng couldn't help but 'gasp', even if the volunteers were defenseless, but if the volunteers were killed or wounded more than half of them in this dark night, they didn't have to think that it would be possible to have a very high hit rate.

In fact, I don't need to say that Political Commissar Chen Ye also knows that this Gloucester battalion is not easy to deal with, and I know it from the materials I have read in modern times. This Gloucester battalion is the ace of the aces in the British army, it has been around for a hundred and fifty years. As early as the war of the British army against Egypt in the old years, the battalion had turned defeat into victory due to outstanding encirclement. The British king awarded the whole battalion officers and soldiers with a cap badge engraved with the words "Royal Army", so the officers and soldiers of the battalion all wore two caps, one in front and one in the back, which was called the "Royal Army Double Signage Battalion"

After the battalion was besieged by the volunteers in history, some people said that if the Gloucester battalion could break out of the encirclement this time, then they would not have two hats but four hats, but unfortunately they failed to do so this time.

I was thinking that if I could see a cockade from behind, it would seem funny, but this unit was really not a joke, because there were only more than 100 people, but it could withstand the more than 20,000 people of the Volunteer Army for three days and three nights.

And I guess it's our battalion that will take the lead, otherwise Political Commissar Chen Ye wouldn't have briefed us in such detail.

Sure enough, after a while, Political Commissar Chen Ye said to Xu Feng: "Because you have experience in fighting with the British army, and you have successfully defeated the British rifle regiment, so the regiment headquarters has decided to 'hand' the task of attacking Castle Hill to your battalion.

"Have faith!" Xu Feng replied almost in a conditional reverse, but I was secretly complaining in my heart, Castle Hill is easy to defend and difficult to attack, although our battalion has four companies that are four times more than the British troops on Castle Hill. But on such a terrain, it does not mean that more people will win, and now I don't know how many comrades will die next to me.

"Your mission is important!" Only then did Regiment Leader Chu stand up and say, "Good Heights, Castle Hill is just behind the old 2 Highlands and Land, and the three Highlands form a triangle to support each other and cover each other. Although the comrades of the Usutar army managed to break through the enemy's fire blockade and infiltrate several times, they were soon beaten back by the enemy on the Ming Heights, so it is necessary to take the Ma Heights, can you complete the task? ”

"Guaranteed to complete the mission!" This time, Xu Feng and I 'stood up' together, anyway, the task has already been completed, and it must be completed if it is completed, and it must be completed if it is not completed, there is no other choice.

The cadres of the battalion were hastily summoned for a short meeting, and a plan for the attack was formulated, and the soldiers soon went up with their guns on their waists.

In fact, it is impossible to say what kind of offensive plan to formulate, "to attack the battle, that is, to assign which company to attack which direction." Then the bugle blew, and then under the cover of machine guns and mortars, everyone rushed up and left.

Because one direction was under the cover of the enemy's fire from the other two high grounds, three companies were arranged for this attack to attack in three directions: east, west, and north.

If this is guarded by American troops or puppet troops on the mountain, then I will not take this attack seriously. Three companies fight one of the enemy, and the company is not? Even if it's easy to defend and difficult to attack, what can it do? Rushing to a certain position, the grenade was thrown upward, and the bayonet was rushed upward, and the problem was solved in three or two strokes.

But now it is the British Gloucester battalion stationed on it,,

When I thought that even if they were besieged and attacked by a volunteer army for three days and three nights, they only died in the end, and most of the rest surrendered under the orders of the commander because there were no bullets, I couldn't help but feel a little worried in my heart.

So I also don't approve of Xu Feng's attack plan, but what can I do if I don't approve of it? The task has been given. It's only three or four hours before dawn, and now I know the danger and the sacrifice, so I have to bite the bullet.

At this time, I was already the deputy battalion commander, and I could let go of the things that brought the soldiers on the battlefield to the company commander, so I didn't have to go to the battlefield in person, but after thinking about it, I still couldn't rest assured, so I came to Chen Liang's main attack side alone with a sniper rifle.

Since I resumed my position as deputy battalion commander, Chen Liang, the deputy company commander, was naturally promoted to company commander. I single-handedly gathered this company, so I'm worried about whether it will make this company disheartened if I'm not there.

Sure enough, when I slowly climbed to the place where the soldiers were hiding, many soldiers around me recognized me, and I heard the soldiers whispering in an excited tone along the way: "It's Deputy Battalion Commander Cui, Deputy Battalion Commander Cui is here!" ”

They seemed to be in a lot more morale the moment they saw me.

Morale is such a thing. Sometimes it's like a person's emotions, which don't actually need to change anything, but can take emotions from one extreme to the other. Just like me now, I don't have to charge with them at all, all I need is to come around the battlefield and get the morale of my soldiers up.

The soldiers did not know what kind of enemy they were facing, nor did they know what kind of difficulties they would face, but when they saw me coming up, they jumped with confidence and jumped into a 'desire' to try, putting on the appearance that they were going to fight a beautiful battle and 'showing' their faces in front of their comrades.

Let's hope this won't make them suffer even more! I was so worried in my heart, but I didn't dare to say it; I knew how powerful the British troops were on the high ground, but I didn't dare to say it.

I remember a veteran saying something like, "The more afraid people are of death on the battlefield, the faster they tend to die!" "So I don't have to say this to discourage them and their confidence and make them feel worried.

"How's it going?" I crawled to the front, found Chen Liang, and asked in a whisper.

"It's so quiet". Chen Liang also seemed to see the difference between this army, frowned and replied: "There are no flares, and there is no sound, as if they are waiting for us to go up." ”

I wanted to tell him to be careful! But in the end, he swallowed the sentence stiffly.
