Chapter Seventy-Nine: The Corpse
"Battalion Commander"
"How's the battalion commander?"
……
As soon as I returned to the station, several cadres from my hometown, Li Zhifu, and others surrounded me in an uproar. They also seemed to hear a little bit of the wind, and all of them had a look of righteous indignation on their faces
Before I could speak, the hometown spitted on the ground and scolded: "This guy really thinks he can cover the sky with one hand, Lao Tzu is out of the way, I'll find him to judge ......"
"Come back" stopped the hometown people who were about to rush towards the regimental headquarters, and I ordered: "All units are ready for battle, we will go and take over the first battalion to attack the 417 heights"
"What? Really? "The soldiers always thought that the look on my face was about to kill because there was nothing good going on, but they didn't expect to give the battle order so soon.
"Didn't you hear the order?" I scolded angrily: "Be ready to fight and set off at any time, let's go and knock down the 417 Heights for those officials to see."
"Yes," the soldiers answered, and then they went back to their respective units in high spirits to prepare.
After preparing the soldiers for battle, I did not immediately go to take over the defense, but took two guards and a communications soldier to the battlefield first.
"How's it going?" After finding Wang Zhengang on the battlefield, I asked bluntly.
The 1st Battalion had already made several charges towards Heights 417, and they were more aware of the current enemy firepower, and I didn't want to waste this opportunity to get information.
Wang Zhengang, who was covered in mud and water, was observing the battle situation with a telescope at this time, and when he looked back and saw that it was me, he said with an unnatural expression: "Battalion Commander Cui...... The enemy's fire was so fierce that it simply couldn't rush through"
"Hmm" I nodded, also holding up the binoculars as I was used to 'sexually'.
"In that ......," the battalion commander pointed to the open tunnel full of corpses, "It's only been more than half an hour...... The fighters of both of our companies were lying there. As soon as the Vietnamese devils saw our army's attacking mortars, howitzers, and anti-aircraft machine guns, they bombed and swept here...... We were killed before we were halfway there......"
"Not halfway yet?" I couldn't help but feel strange when I heard this, and when I looked through the binoculars, most of the corpses were half on the side of the open field, and only a few people could rush to the other side of the open field, and almost none could climb the slope.
I have seen a lot of artillery blockades, and this is what the Yankees often did on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and on Shangganling, there was even an artillery blockade for several days and nights. The artillery blockade can indeed kill and injure the attacking infantry in a large area, but because the explosion point of the artillery blockade is basically unchanged, and there will be an interval between the time of the shell firing, there will always be some gaps or leaks, and more or less there will be some soldiers who can break through the barrage.
However, as it is now, there are too few people who can rush through, and even on the battlefield of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea, this situation will not occur when the US military has completely mastered air supremacy and artillery superiority, not to mention that the Vietnamese army now has neither air supremacy nor artillery superiority.
With this suspicion, I carefully observed every inch of the open land through the thick fog of gunpowder smoke on the battlefield, especially the side of the 417 Heights, and it turned out that I really found something......
"There," I pointed to the 1st battalion commander at the foot of the 417 heights: "Take a closer look at what's there?" ”
The commander of the first battalion raised his binoculars suspiciously and looked at the position I was pointing, and after a long time said, "There seem to be several 'holes' ......"
"That's right," I nodded, "but not a few, if I'm guessing right, it's a row."
"A row?" The commander of the first battalion couldn't help but look at me in shock.
"Of course it's a row," I pointed to a few other locations: "There's that, there's that...... There will be several 'holes' at intervals, and they are well hidden, all camouflaged in advance with train debris and stones."
"Damn it" Seeing that it was really like what I said, the first battalion commander couldn't help but scolded fiercely: "These dog-day devils are setting traps under our noses, this is a strange thing if we can rush through......"
I have to admit that the Vietnamese army is indeed very cunning, and they dug a short and narrow single anti-artillery 'hole' at the foot of the 417 Heights, and these anti-artillery 'holes' are facing the open field, and the 'hole' mouth is also camouflaged as a 'fine' heart, and if you don't deliberately look for it, you won't notice it at all.
Even more cunning is ...... These guys don't usually shoot, because shooting means exposing their position. It was only when our army launched a charge and the artillery fire of the two armies exploded each other 'indiscriminately' and the machine guns swept 'chaotically' that they slowly stretched out their guns like poisonous snakes lurking in the shadows......
At this time, the sound of guns and cannons on both sides was deafening, and our army could not find these Vietnamese troops hiding in front of us at all, so the soldiers fell inexplicably in rows, and they all thought that the enemy's shells were blown up.
I was so angry that I estimated the anti-artillery 'hole' at the foot of the mountain, where the Vietnamese army was almost lurking, and this platoon was hiding in the Vietnamese army with AK47s and even light machine guns...... Moreover, there are artillery shells and anti-aircraft machine guns blowing up and sweeping over the heads of our troops, which is really like what the battalion commander said, and it would be strange if this could be rushed.
"Battalion commander, look," exclaimed a guard at this time, pointing to a large rock in the middle of the 417 Heights.
Wang Zhengang and I looked in the same direction as the guards pointed out, only to see a corpse suspended in the air by the Vietnamese army in front of the stone, which was dangling lifelessly in the smoke of gunpowder. In order to attract our attention, the Vietnamese army even deliberately fired machine guns, and there were faint bursts of very arrogant laughter......
"The devil of the dog day" Wang Zhengang saw this scene, where would he endure it, he smashed his fist on the soil in front of him, and then jumped up and took out Tokarev's pistol and rushed towards the 417 heights: "**Your ancestor**Grandma, I'm fighting with you......"
"Battalion Commander Wang" I threw Wang Zhengang to the ground with a pounce, and finally subdued him who was struggling desperately, and shouted at him: "You will give me the matter of revenge, and I will seek justice for the sacrificed brothers."
Wang Zhengang looked at me stunned for a long time, and then tears welled up with a "whooa", and a big man hid his face and cried bitterly in front of his subordinates on the battlefield.
I can understand his mood at this time, and I also know that he actually wanted to kill himself with the help of the Vietnamese army. More than 200 people in two companies can be said to have died indirectly at his hands, and the corpses of his subordinates have been insulted by the Vietnamese army, no matter who has the slightest conscience, they will not be able to stand it. The commander of the first battalion may be a little worse in military quality, and he may be a little clever in doing things, but he is still a person with a conscience.
After asking the soldiers to help Wang Zhengang down, I raised my binoculars again to look at the corpse that was hanging in the air and swaying in the wind, and I only gritted my teeth with hatred.
"Call all the fighters," I said through my teeth.
"Yes," the messenger responded, and quickly gave the order to the fighters via walkie-talkie.
After a while, the soldiers trotted all the way to me in a neat formation, and I took a few steps back and forth in front of them, and then pointed to the hanging corpse on the 417 heights and said loudly: "Comrades, look at what it is?" ”
"Corpses"
"Corpses?"
……
Because of the thick smoke of gunfire, many soldiers saw the corpse at this time, and they couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, and then soon the whole army was in chaos.
"That's right, it's a corpse," I shouted to the fighters, "that's our comrade, who had just died during an attack on the enemy's heights. But the enemy hung his body up to show us, do you know why the enemy did this? They are laughing at us, laughing at us for not being able to fight, laughing at us for never hitting the corpses, they are insulting us, insulting all our fighters, insulting our motherland and all our Chinese you say...... What are we going to do? ”
"Kill them all"
"Lay down 417 Heights and kill them all"
……
When I said this, the soldiers were all furious, and they all raised their weapons and shouted, eager to rush up and fight to the death with the Yue devils
Looking at the appearance of the warriors, I couldn't help but nod in satisfaction.
I know what the purpose of the Vietnamese army is, they think that no one can pass through this open area in front of the 417 heights, so they want to 'provoke' us to continue the attack, so as to kill and injure a large number of our troops. But one thing is for sure, for whatever reason, they got it wrong this time
The consequence of insulting the corpses of our soldiers is that it will 'provoke' the murderous spirit in the hearts of all the soldiers, and will make them a strong army that does not care about life and death. As long as I command it properly, they will definitely be able to rush to the 417 heights, and mercilessly find out and kill all the Vietnamese troops one by one
"Camp Commander Choi"
When I looked back, I realized that it was the chief of staff calling me, and I couldn't help but be stunned. This guy isn't going to come to me again, if so, he's at the wrong time. At this time, my killing intent is strong, and no matter who stands in front of me, I will knock him down mercilessly
The face of the chief of staff of "Battalion Commander Cui" was a little pale, he looked at the corpse hanging on the 417 heights, and then met my eyes without fear and said: "I fully cooperate with the 417 heights, and I will not leave a single prisoner."
"Yes," I 'stood up' to respond.
This was the first time that I willingly and happily carried out the order of the chief of staff, and this order was obviously very popular, and the soldiers spontaneously responded "yes".
The so-called brothers are playing on the wall and are outside, I'm afraid that's it, the devils will have to pay a heavy price for the mistakes they made after all
