Chapter 32: The Battle of Mapingli (3)
In fact, the range of US machine guns and mortars far exceeds that in my hands... rifles, but the mountainous terrain of the DPRK blocked their firing range, so that they had to shoot at us in the open field 700 meters away from our positions, which gave me the opportunity to suppress them with my sniper rifles, but in a few moments I managed to knock out two machine gun groups and a mortar group.
More than a dozen, the American troops fell in front of the machine gun position in different postures, and basically all of them were shot in the head and their brains burst to death.
This made the Yankees quickly realize that there were snipers targeting them, so when I pressed the stream book and said that it was good to go outside and kill two magazines.
Then the machine gunner and the mortar man knew very well and hid behind the small hill.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Cui! You've come just in time! "When Camp Commander Li saw me, it was like seeing a savior. Three or two steps came to me and said, "The enemy has gone around behind us, our fortifications
Battalion Commander Li must have been engaged in logistics and had never commanded combat troops, so he was so panicked that he had no way to make up his mind. Seeing that Battalion Commander Li was a little at a loss, I secretly said that it was good that I came over, otherwise I was afraid that this Mi 3 Heights would change hands soon.
"Immediately go to the top of the mountain and build a defense! The wounded and sick take refuge in the tunnel for the time being! "Before Battalion Commander Li finished speaking, I gave the order, and now there is no other way but to build a defense line on the top of the mountain. But if all the people were piled up in a small square on the top of the mountain, then the enemy would not know how many people would lose when the artillery fire came over.
"Yes!" The warriors answered, and soon went their separate ways.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Cui!" Battalion Commander Li pointed to the pits where food and equipment were hidden: "What about those pits and tunnels?" In case the ammunition inside is detonated by the enemy
I couldn't help frowning when I heard this, and after thinking about it, I immediately asked, "Did you plug the mouth of the pit with sandbags?" ”
"It's blocked!" Battalion Commander Li replied again: "When the enemy plane came, it was blocked, for fear that the enemy's incendiary bombs would detonate the ammunition!" ”
"That's good!" I ordered: "Leave one pit with ammunition for spare, and the others use grenades to blow up the hole outside the sandbag, and the devils will not be able to do anything about us for a while!" ”
"Yes!" Battalion Commander Li answered and went to make arrangements.
If you don't, once the U.S. forces attack, tear open a sandbag and shine a flashlight inside, and see the piles of equipment inside. Blowing up the mouth of the pit outside the sandbag with a grenade would have prevented it. Because the tunnel was sealed with sandbags, I wasn't worried that the grenades would detonate the munitions inside. After a while, only one after another roars were heard, and the food and ammunition in the tunnel were sealed in such a simple way.
Climbed up the hill to see the terrain. I realized that the actual situation was even more serious than I imagined, and the enemy's direct-fire guns could penetrate the gap between the concave and milk heights and directly hit the forward slope of the 33rd Height, and the enemy lost its defensive significance on the reverse slope. So now the Yasan Highlands are actually under the enemy's attack from both sides.
What's more, Liao 3 Heights is still the rear of the other two Heights, once Mi 3 Heights are lost. The other two Highlands will soon be in the same situation as the Chat 3 Highlands. There are pros and cons. Anticline fortifications do have many advantages, but once the enemy goes around to the rear, its disadvantages are exposed.
Looking at the soldiers who were nervously building the fortifications, including Battalion Commander Li, there were only about 30 people, and I couldn't help but frown. The number of troops is too small, and the other more than a hundred are wounded and sick, most of them do not have the ability to build fortifications, and they can only hide in the tunnels for the time being, once the battle starts, they will not be able to deploy their troops in time.
"Woo" is when I have a big headache. The whistling of cannonballs was already heard in the sky. As soon as the soldiers and I got to the ground in the fortifications that had not yet been built, a few shells exploded right next to us. Then there was another field of machine guns and bombs, and the hill soon became a world of sharp rocks and shrapnel. Just for a while. At the foot of the mountain, a large number of American GIs appeared, looking like there were six or seven hundred of them.
This girl! Seeing this, I couldn't help but curse secretly, the movements on our side must have been clearly seen by the Yankees in the binoculars, so they took advantage of the fact that we were not ready to attack.
The Yankees were very cunning, they did not gather in a group and attack in one direction, but scattered each other to attack from the front and from the flank, which made us have to disperse our limited forces in various parts of the hill. Direction.
"Hit!" This time, before the enemy could run nearly 200 meters, I gave the order to start fighting.
The Strong 3 Heights are the largest of the three, and at the same time, the slope is also the slowest and easiest to climb, and it is also the easiest for the enemy to attack, so I didn't dare to slack off, and I gave the order to shoot before the enemy could run in.
Although there were only about 30 volunteer soldiers on the high ground, there were more than a dozen machine guns in their hands. And we were above the supplies, and the trenches were directly connected to the pit of the ammunition depot, so there was no need to worry about ammunition, and the soldiers only fired their machine guns and watched the enemy fall in rows.
"Bang bang bang" The rifle in my hand also kept ringing, but the target was not the enemy charging at our position, but the Yankees who were behind them with the help of machine guns and mortars.
In fact, the range of US machine guns and mortars far exceeds that in my hands... rifles, but the mountainous terrain of the DPRK blocked their firing range, so that they had to shoot at us in the open field 700 meters away from our positions, which gave me the opportunity to suppress them with my sniper rifles, but in a few moments I managed to knock out two machine gun groups and a mortar group. More than a dozen, the American troops fell in front of the machine gun position in different postures, and basically all of them were shot in the head and their brains burst to death. This made the Yankees quickly realize that there were snipers targeting them, so when I pressed the stream book and said that it was good to go outside and kill two magazines. Then the machine gunner and the mortar man knew very well and hid behind the small hill.
The soldiers had already been engaged in the tense battle, and none of them noticed this scene, but there was one exception, and that was Battalion Commander Li lying next to me. He was holding a submachine gun in his hand, and he seemed to have some military knowledge. Knowing that the maximum range of the Sha submachine gun was only two hundred meters, he also knew that it was a waste of bullets to fire at those enemies before they had rushed closer.
He had not fired a shot beside me, his mouth had been wide open since I fired the first shot, and he was staring at me with incredible eyes when I managed to push the machine gunners and mortar men back. However. When he saw me, he could kill two with one shot. When he rushed towards our American troops, he didn't even have the interest to shoot like that.
"Bang!" Another bullet pierced the neck of the American soldier and then into the arm of a US soldier in the back. The U.S. soldier in front of him slowly fell down holding his bloody neck, while the U.S. soldier in the back fell to the ground screaming, his whole thing was broken, only a little skin was stuck to his arm, I could almost see his broken arm dangling in the void before he went down,
The rifle in my hand is not a special sniper rifle, and its penetration power is not enough to penetrate the human body from a distance of 200 meters, so I have to choose the weakest part of the human body, the neck. And only then. It was only then that I really realized the phenomenon that people often say that the secondary killing power of bullets is even greater. If it was a single kill, it was impossible for the American soldier's arm to be broken by a bullet, and it seems that the Yankee's arm was still very thick, but it was entirely possible to be wounded twice.
So the first one, the guy I hit in the neck is basically dead, and the second one who is hit basically loses the ability to fight, no matter where it hits.
There was a strange cry of "whoosh", and I heard the sound of the American army's shoulder-fired bazooka rocket launcher, and hurriedly buried my head deep in the soil, and at the same time pressed down Battalion Commander Li, who was still watching me.
Just listen to "Boom! A wave of heat rushed towards us, and the hairs exposed outside the hats soon curled with strange sounds.
When we looked up again, it was already red, and I couldn't even open my eyes with the raging fire.
This is the power of the Bazooka, which is equipped with three types of ammunition: armor-piercing shells, which are used against armored vehicles and pillboxes; incendiary bombs, which are used against infantry; Smoke bombs, which are used to interfere with the enemy's line of sight. Now, of course, he fired incendiary bombs. Fortunately, because of the angle, the incendiary bomb only hit the front edge of the ridge, otherwise we would have been burned to the ground.
Without thinking too much, I took advantage of the cover of the flames, got up and ran two steps to the side with my waist bent. Then I rolled on the ground and came to another sniper position that I had selected beforehand. I knew the terrain on the top of the hill by heart, and I knew that the guy with the bazooka could be seen from this position, and sure enough, when I came out, I could clearly see through the scope that the guy was lying in a crater, with the rockets loaded and aiming.
There was no room for thought, I didn't hesitate to pull the trigger and just listen to "Bang!" "A bang. There was an extra black hole on that steel installation, and because he was already lying on his stomach, the head just lowered slightly and didn't move, just like a person who was too sleepy lowered his head to take a nap.
One by one, the American troops fell under the gunfire of the volunteers, but to my surprise, the American troops were very resolute in this charge, and they did not rush out of our fire as usual when they arrived at the next dozen men, but still attacked the hill with various weapons covering each other.
Maybe it's because we killed and wounded four or five hundred people just now, so they were also red-eyed! But more importantly, I think it's because they know we're stationed in Jean. There were only 30 or so people on the head, but what they didn't know was that the 30 or so of us were armed with Soviet-style machine guns and submachine guns, and there was no shortage of ammunition, and the firepower was even more fierce than that of a battalion of the Volunteer Army before.
The only advantage in the strong 3 highlands defense is. The highway has been blocked by the volunteers on these high grounds, and the enemy's tanks and artillery have no way to come for a while, so the most that these Yankees have in front of them are some mortars, rocket artillery and other light weapons, and because cars can't come over, their ammunition is limited. In this local area, the firepower of the volunteers was no worse than that of the American troops, and they only beat the flesh and blood of the charging American troops, and they fell in front of the positions in rows.
"Boom!" With a bang, a shell that flew out of nowhere landed directly behind a group of Golyunov heavy machine guns not far from me. The two volunteer machine gunners were blown into the sky in a single stroke, and the other was directly blown in two. The lower half of the body doesn't know where to go, but the upper body is still with wide eyes and twitching, and it doesn't seem to be much breath. Look at the heavy machine gun again. It's all buried in the ground.
As soon as the sound of the machine guns weakened, the Yankees quickly rushed up to the gap in this firepower. This is also the biggest weakness of insufficient troops, once there are casualties and no one rushes to replenish them, then there will soon be a gap in the battle line. I hurriedly raised my rifle and shot at the swarming American troops. But what is very helpless is that even if I wash the stream book every time I read the latest Children's Day, I will wash the stream and dry the concave and say "Say that Qi umbrella, Ding Duo can defeat one or two enemies, but still can't stop them from rushing up" And after a while, this group of Yankees took advantage of me to change the magazine, and the Peng submachine gun in his hand was loud, and I couldn't even raise my head under the pressure of pieces of bullets.
I was secretly anxious in my heart, there are so many Yankees, once they tear open this gap, then it will not be far from the loss of the Mi-3 Heights, if I have a machine gun in my hand now, this situation will not occur.
Just when I regretted not preparing an extra machine gun for myself, the dense gunfire rang out at this moment, followed by a scream of the enemy, and the bullets that were hitting me in pieces were gone.
There are more than a dozen tunnels dug in the middle and upper part of the Qiang3 Heights for the volunteers to hide from enemy aircraft and artillery bombardment. These dozen tunnels were originally built on the anticline, but because the enemy went around behind us to attack, the mouth of the tunnel was facing the enemy. All the wounded soldiers I had put in the tunnel for defense were to pile up some sandbags in front of the mouth of the tunnel and set up two machine guns. A fortification close to a pillbox was completed,"
Such fortifications, because there were a dozen or twenty people hiding in each tunnel, could achieve the continuation of fire, and the fighters in front were sacrificed. The fighters in the back could be replenished quickly, and they were safe in the tunnels, and they did not need to play to avoid the enemy's aircraft artillery, so these tunnel-style "pillbox" fortifications were almost tailor-made for their wounded soldiers who were unable to move and could not build fortifications.
Seeing this, I also deeply admired the wit and bravery of the wounded soldiers, who were originally a fortification that was very unfavorable to us, but now after such a finishing touch transformation of the wounded soldiers, it has played a great role at this critical moment. In this way, the wounded soldiers in the tunnel can rely on the tunnel fortifications to inflict a large number of casualties on the American troops charging on the high ground. Because the mouth of the tunnel is narrow and the U.S. troops below have an elevation angle, it is even more difficult for the U.S. troops to hit the Kaoyuan Army in the tunnel.
Of course, because of the narrowness of the tunnel fortifications, there will be many shooting blind spots, and it is easy for the US troops to throw grenades into the tunnel from top to bottom around the mouth of the tunnel, but of course the volunteer soldiers stationed on the top of the mountain will not watch the enemy do this. As a result, the top of the mountain and the tunnel cover each other, complementing each other and forming a good defense system.
At this time, dozens of machine guns in more than a dozen tunnels sprayed flames at the US troops at the same time, and the US troops did not expect that such a strong firepower would suddenly appear on this halfway up the mountainside.
The advantage of the long duration of the firepower of the Soviet-style weapon is reflected, the turntable machine gun is the capacity of the ammunition, and the more exaggerated is that the chain of the Guolunov heavy machine gun is four bullets, it can shoot them all out within a minute, and it only takes a few seconds to reload a bullet chain, and soon another massacre can begin, so in the case of sufficient ammunition for the volunteers, dozens of people on our small hill, the firepower is far away towards our attacking American troops.
After fighting with the volunteers for so long, the U.S. troops in front of them seemed to have encountered a unit with such strong firepower for the first time, and in just a few minutes, Feng Shang had hundreds of people, and then they repeated the scene of collapse and escape again without any suspense, and the machine guns in the hands of the volunteers. Naturally, he once again pursued and killed those American troops who fled in a hurry.
The scene I had seen on the high ground before me reappeared, the corpses of American soldiers almost filled the blank space in front of the position, and blood stained every inch of the ground in front of the position. In this charge, the American army was at least more than 300 people lying here. They will never be able to return to their beautiful homeland.
Remembering that a few days ago, we also used the Soviet-style equipment in our hands to attack the Grist battalion guarding the high ground and suffered very heavy losses, and then I realized that the Soviet-style light and heavy machine guns in our hands were more suitable for defense than for charging.
For example, the turntable machine gun, because of the heavy and large turntable above, makes it inconvenient to carry, and there is no way to move forward while firing like a Czech machine gun. Speaking of the Guolunov heavy machine gun, the steel shield on it, coupled with the wheeled gun carriage, makes its empty gun weigh more than 100 catties.
"Down with US imperialism!"
"Down with the reactionaries!"
Watching the Yankees retreat with large swaths of corpses, the soldiers clenched their fists in excitement and shouted, especially the wounded soldiers in the tunnels. They sincerely cheered that they could still wield a little strength on the battlefield and repel the Yankee charge.
"Deputy Battalion Commander Cui". At this time, Battalion Commander Li had time to come up, and said with admiration on his face: "You, your marksmanship is really amazing, when can you teach me success?"
"What?" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, if it weren't for the fact that he was the battalion commander who was one level older than me, I would have asked him immediately: when is this coming, and whether his life will be saved is still a question. There is also a time to sharpen the gun and let me teach marksmanship! Please thumb up to read this book on your phone
