Chapter 12: The Battle of Onjing (2)
......At three o'clock in the morning, the long-lost charge finally sounded.
The 30,000 volunteers of the "Killing ......" almost at the same time as the trumpet sounded, they let out an earth-shattering roar and rushed towards Wenjing, and the gunfire also rang out immediately.
The South Korean troops in Onjeong were stunned for a moment, and in the light of the fire, we could clearly see them crawling out of their sleeping bags in panic, looking around for their M1 rifles like headless flies. After finding the M1 rifle, they quickly discovered that they had made a fatal mistake - a bonfire!
The dozens of bonfires they lit were in response to the sentence - I am in the open and the enemy is in the dark. They only heard shouts and gunfire around them, and only saw their comrades fall one after another in the gunfire, but they could not see half of the enemy.
It was then that I understood their helplessness, and in this case, if they continued to resist, it would only be a massacre, and it is no wonder that they fled without resistance. I think even the British 27th Brigade, which is recognized as the most capable of fighting in the United Nations Army, can only escape in this situation.
It didn't take long for the volunteers running in front to approach the edge of the city, and a row of grenades was thrown over, only to explode with a roar. This is the usual combat method of the volunteers, and the grenade can not only injure the enemy hiding in the shadows in front, but also provoke a puff of smoke to cover the charge of the troops. Only this time, when the smoke of the grenades cleared, it was found that the South Korean troops had almost run away.
The soldiers of the Volunteer Army continued to attack and pursued all the way in the direction where the South Korean Army had fled, but there was one exception to this unit, and that was the 354th Regiment to which I belonged.
"Eight lambs, you kid has a bad idea." Huzi glared at me fiercely as he ran, raised the shovel in his hand, and said dissatisfiedly: "Everyone else brings 38 big covers, and all they throw are grenades, chasing deserters in a beautiful way, so our regiment will take the shovel to the battlefield, shame on you?" ”
"Brother Huzi." I laughed as I ran: "The idea is good, but the order was given by our regiment commander, can't it all be blamed on me, don't you say?" ”
I ran to a campfire, shoveled a large chunk of snow with a shovel and threw it into the bonfire, and as I watched the snow quickly melt into snow in the fire, I continued, "Say it again!" Brother Huzi, don't underestimate this shovel, you wait and see, the battle exploits we have made with the shovel are much stronger than the battle exploits made by the 38 big cover grenade? ”
"Cut ......" Huzi shoveled a few large pieces of snow in a row, extinguished a bonfire after dividing five by two, and sneered at me: "Just ...... Just by extinguishing a few fires, can you make a war feat? I don't believe it! ”
"I don't believe it either."
Xiao Shandong buried himself in shoveling snow, don't look at his small size, but his hand strength is not small, the snow was shoveled by him like the wind blowing and piled up to the bonfire, and it was extinguished in several places after a while.
"Look at the comrades who ran past us." Xiao Shandong stopped what he was doing, raised his head and said, "Which of those comrades is not looking at our group?" Which one isn't laughing at us? ”
After speaking, he buried himself in shoveling snow, as if he was afraid of being seen.
"Maybe...... It's really a good thing. The old squad leader listened with his ears sideways, and there was a faint rumbling sound in the sky.
"Quick...... Put out the fire! Yankee's plane is coming! ”
As soon as the old squad leader reminded him, everyone quickly understood what was going on, and invariably accelerated the movements of his hands, and a group of more than 3,000 people moved together, and soon extinguished the dozens of bonfires of all sizes, and the air was soon filled with the smell of choking smoke, and Wenjing fell into darkness again.
Only then did we notice the light of the fire jumping in the darkness not far away, and the feeling was that the fleeing South Korean troops hurriedly drew firewood from the bonfire as torches to light their escape path.
Rumble......
The sound grew louder and louder, like bursts of thunder from far and near. The volunteers had long since stopped shooting, knowing that the sound of gunfire, explosions, and the accompanying light could be the target of bombing by enemy aircraft.
Rumble......
It's like a giant beating a drum on his head, and everyone looks up at the sky, even though they know that they can't see anything.
......A shrill scream pierced the night sky, followed by a few more sounds, and in a few moments the sky rang out.
"Get down and find cover!" The old squad leader, who has rich combat experience, knew that it was the sound of enemy planes dropping bombs.
The volunteer soldiers ran back and forth, each looking for a place to hide, but this Wenjing was full of broken houses made of wood, and there was no place to stop the bombs.
"Alas! Or did the enemy aircraft discover the target, could it be that the fire was extinguished too late? "I lay on my stomach in frustration and waited for the bloody storm to come.
But what happened next surprised the volunteer soldiers like a heavy snowfall in June. With a series of earth-shaking bombing sounds, the direction of the South Korean army's escape exploded one after another fiery red mushroom clouds, and the woods instantly caught fire, the firelight illuminated the surrounding scenery, melting the snow next to it, and from time to time there were several "fire men" wailing and dancing wildly and crashing around, and after a while they fell to the ground and no longer made a sound.
"I feel that these Yankee planes have taken the torches in the hands of those puppet soldiers as targets." After a while, the old squad leader came back to his senses.
"Huh...... Hehe...... Hehehe! Huzi's big mouth let out a strange laugh, and he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Comrade, you still have a bad idea, and you have fought more reactionaries than I have fought in my life." ”
"This time our group can show their faces!" Xiao Shandong couldn't close his mouth with a smile.
"Good! Which regiment is this? With a burst of hearty laughter, a volunteer soldier with a Soviet-made Tokarev pistol at his waist appeared in front of us under the protection of several guards, the military hat pressed by the cotton hat only showed a little brim, the two red collar badges on the neck were faintly exposed under the windbreaker, the eyes were bloodshot but bright, and the thin face was angular and angular, and at a glance he knew that he was a decisive and tough person.
"Report to the division commander, it's from the 354th regiment!"
The old squad leader and the others all stood up and saluted, and I knew that the person in front of me was Deng Yue, the commander of the 118th Division of the 40th Army.
"It turned out to be Lao Chu's group! Yes, you've done a great job this time. Deng Yue stepped forward, patted this person's shoulder very kindly, and shook this person's hand, the smile on his face made people feel so warm.
"Report to the Divisional Commander! Chu Chuanyu, head of the 354th regiment, reported. At this time, Commander Chu trotted all the way to the division commander, leaned on his heels, saluted, and stood upright in front of the division commander.
"Take a break." Deng Yue patted Chu Tuan's shoulder like an old friend and said, "Old Chu, the wound still hurts, right?" ”
"Report to the division commander, it doesn't hurt!"
"What? When I'm blind? Deng Yue smiled and said, "You stand up and take a cool breath, bullying me for my bad eyes, right?" ”
Head Chu smirked embarrassedly, and everyone also let out a burst of laughter.
"But this bit of bitterness, this bit of tiredness, we are not afraid." Deng Yue continued: "Because we are soldiers, revolutionary soldiers are to use their bodies to protect their families and defend the country, and to protect the people with their lives. Revolutionary soldiers must dare to sacrifice and not be afraid of suffering. Comrades, are you afraid? ”
"Don't be afraid!"
"Okay." Deng Yue seemed to be in a very good mood, he nodded and said to Chu Chuanyu: "Old Chu, there are no weak soldiers under the strong generals, and the people of the 354th Regiment are all good comrades, if it weren't for your regiment this time, we would have suffered a big loss!" ”
"Hey, Commander!" Chu Chuanyu was obviously a person who was not used to being praised, and he said with some embarrassment: "Commander, isn't it just to extinguish a few fires?" What can this be? ”
"Lao Chu." Deng Yue shook his head and smiled: "You didn't charge with the troops, I don't know the situation in front, there are dozens of big trucks parked in front, and they are full of guns and ammunition given to us by the puppet military division!" If it is hit by the Yankees' planes, how many people will our volunteers lose as soon as those arms explode? ”
"Really? Dozens of cartloads of ammunition? "Commander Chu was excited as soon as he heard it, the volunteers went abroad to fight in a hurry, and there was a shortage of food and ammunition if there was no shortage of others, and now dozens of truckloads of ammunition were captured at once, how could he not be overjoyed.
"Really! Lie that you are a turtle son. Deng Yue made a turtle with his hand, which caused everyone to laugh.
"Comrades." Deng Yue straightened his face again and said: "You fought a good battle, although you didn't go into battle to kill the enemy, but you let the Yankees' plane blow up the puppet army, and they fought their own family!" Not to mention the casualties of our army was greatly reduced, a large number of guns and ammunition were also captured, and the fight was good! I'll go to the commander and ask for credit for you! ”
"Good!" The crowd erupted in cheers, and everyone rejoiced at the unexpected result.
"That's right, Commander." Commander Chu seemed to remember something, and dragged me to the division commander and said: "This time it was all this comrade's idea, if you want to reward him for meritorious deeds, reward him first!" ”
"Hmm!" Deng Yue first glanced at me unexpectedly, and then looked me up and down, seeing that I was uncomfortable, looking at that look and looking at that look, it looked like I was choosing a daughter-in-law!
