The sound of cannons and gunfire soon rang out. But we did not retreat into the tunnel, because this is the guns of the American army. Assist artillery fire is characterized by not being violent, but it is highly targeted, and a heavy bombardment from the top of the hill will soon be followed by a large number of infantry, and there is usually machine gun fire suppression. The aim was to suppress the enemy's firepower with hope, reduce the casualties of the opposing troops in the charge, and quickly rush into the enemy's defense line to occupy the position.

It should be said that the U.S. military is very suitable for such a battle, because the firepower generated by their modern equipment often overwhelms the enemy, and then their infantry can easily occupy the opponent's position under the cover of these firepower, even if the opponent occupies a favorable terrain.

The Volunteers also suffered a lot of such losses in the early days, because the US troops had a large number of machine guns, tank guns, rocket launchers and Bazooka rocket launchers in their hands, and the Volunteers worked hard to build fortifications on the high ground all night, but they were easily beaten to pieces by these weapons, which not only offset the favorable terrain occupied by the Volunteers on the high ground, but also caused great casualties to the Volunteers.

But since I applied the anticline tactics to the Korean battlefield in advance, the situation has improved a lot. No matter how strong the fortifications on the positive slope are, they are just a pointless waste of more Yankee ammunition. Not only is it a waste of effort, but it will also increase the number of casualties. But if the fortifications are built on the anticline, it is different, because no matter how powerful the Yankees' machine guns and cannons are. There was also no way to penetrate the entire mountain to hit the fortifications and volunteer soldiers behind the mountain.

The volunteers know this, and the Yankees know this, so now the fire assistance of their machine guns and artillery is completely meaningless. However, in order to strengthen their courage, they still made a random call to the 259 and 273.1 heights on both sides of the road, and then a team of thousands of American troops divided into two teams and touched the 259 and 273.1 heights.

I took my troops and the wounded to the top of the hill from the anticline fortifications, and when I poked my head out, I saw groups of American troops covering each other with various weapons.

The so-called wisdom of the masses is infinite, and the anticline fortifications have developed to the present, and many veterans who have fought in the war have integrated their combat experience into the fortifications, allowing it to slowly mature and form a complete fortification. For example, the arrangement of mortars, the defense of the anti-slope fortifications against the front and back enemies, the guard of the ridge line, and some dead spots for throwing grenades, all of which were well used, and even the soldiers boldly built the first line of defense on the side of the anti-slope on the top of the hill. In this line of defense, the enemy's machine guns and direct-fire guns could not pose a threat to the fortifications here and the volunteers hiding in the trenches due to the angle, but the soldiers could hit the rushing enemy as long as they raised their heads and stretched out their guns. Now we are hiding in the first line of defense on the top of the mountain.

What surprised me a little was that the U.S. forces didn't surround us and attack as I thought.

Cold weapon warfare is different from hot weapon warfare, and the most commonly used tactic in the cold weapon era is "encircling three and one", that is, encircling three sides to vacate one side so that the enemy has a way to escape. Its purpose is to discourage the enemy's fighting spirit. Because once it is surrounded on all sides, it will make the besieged enemy make a mortal determination to fight the beast, and it turns out that the result is often a lose-lose situation. If you only surround three sides and leave a way for the enemy to live, the besieged soldiers will often have no intention of fighting because they have a way to escape, and once the besieged army retreats, they can also pursue all the way, and finally achieve the greatest result at the lowest cost.

However, the era of hot weapons is different, and one of the most important aspects of combat in the era of hot weapons is logistics supply. In the era of cold weapons, all you need to fight a war is a knife and a spear. Even if it's broken or broken, you can make do with a hoe or a wooden stick. But if there is no ammunition in the era of hot weapons, then there is almost no choice but to fight with bullets. Therefore, in this era, the "encirclement of three and one" is no longer effective, and now the emphasis is on dividing and encircling and cutting off the enemy's logistical supply. Once the enemy is surrounded on all sides and cannot break through, the consequence is basically to wait for the ammunition to run out of food, and then either die or be captured.

So I'm wondering that now the U.S. military has every chance to surround us, but they didn't. Of course, even if they surrounded us, it would be useless, because there were a lot of supplies hidden in the dozens of tunnels in the 307.3 heights, but the Yankees didn't know this, so why didn't they choose to surround us?

Maybe these Yankees don't take us seriously! I quickly figured out the reason, when this American army was interspersed, they encountered all the People's Army or Volunteer Army soldiers who were defenseless and insufficient ammunition in the retreat, and they were all overwhelmed like no one along the way, so under this kind of inertial thinking, they naturally thought that defeating the army in front of them was not as easy as eating vegetables. This arrogance made them disdain to waste time and energy to surround us, they only thought of breaking us up quickly and then penetrating into the rear of our army according to the original plan, and encircling more volunteers......

But this time, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint them.

"Don't save bullets! Wait until the enemy is close before you fight! I whispered an order to the warrior beside me, and the warrior answered, and passed on my orders one by one.

This is the first time I've seen it. To fight a war, you don't have to think about whether there are not enough bullets. 307.3 Rather than self-destruct or fall into the hands of the enemy, the soldiers should have them all hit the enemy, and I think the soldiers understand that.

The American troops advanced at a fast pace, coming to within a hundred meters in the blink of an eye, and it was only then that they slowed down, apparently preparing for their final charge.

"Hit!" At the moment when they were about to charge, I gave the order, and all kinds of weapons in the hands of the volunteers opened fire.

Most of the weapons in the hands of the fighters were selected by themselves in the ammunition depot, and they were basically fired in bursts, either machine guns or submachine guns, and the loading capacity of Soviet-style weapons was amazingly large, so as soon as they fired, the bullets poured down towards the US troops like raindrops, only to hit the debris and stones that flew up in front of the position as if they were covered with a layer of smoke, and the US troops fell in patches in a pool of blood before they could react.

Then more than a dozen 82-millimeter mortars under the high ground also roared, and the gunners had already adjusted the Zhuyuan at the beginning of the war against the position of the positive slope, and at this time several rows of shells were fired, and each shell exploded fiercely in the crowd of American troops, only to blow up the Yankees screaming and powerless.

In particular, the anti-tank grenades in the hands of the fighters exerted their powerful power at this time, and the anti-tank grenades were originally thrown not far because of their weight, but now the position of the volunteers is at a high place, and the soldiers can easily throw them into the enemy group due to the drop. This thing has more than a pound of TNT in it, and it explodes more powerful than a mortar. I heard a loud bang, and all the American troops within a range of 10 or 20 meters were thrown into the sky.

The U.S. military also reacted quickly, and when they saw that the situation was not right, they did not wait for the order to retreat like a tide. But the volunteers were not willing to let them go so easily, and the rows of bullets still followed them like eyes, and the American troops running behind fell in rows like harvested wheat, until they ran to the corner of the road, and the machine guns were still ringing.

Although the range of the submachine guns in the hands of the volunteers was only 200 meters. However, the firing range of the Guolunov heavy machine gun reached 1,000 meters, and even the range of the turntable light machine gun was 800 meters, so the body of the Yankee was lined up all the way from the slopes of the high ground to the end of the corner of the road, and four or five hundred people were killed and wounded in this one photo alone, and the blood soon stained the entire position.

"Rejoice! What a blow! Looking at the corpses of the enemy, Huzi laughed, and the soldiers all waved their fists with confidence.

"Enter the pit!" As soon as I saw that the Yankees had retreated, I hurriedly gave an order: "Inform Battalion Commander Li to protect the ammunition with sandbags, and don't let the devils blow up our ammunition supplies!" ”

"Yes!" The soldiers answered, and quickly waved the flag, the wounded on their backs, and then quickly withdrew down the trenches into the tunnel.

The Yankees suffered such a great loss unguardedly, and they could not bear it for them, who had always attached importance to human life, and they were so angry that they had to give vent to their artillery fire.

Sure enough, it didn't take long for the shells to come one by one, and this trip lasted more than half an hour before the sound of the cannons slowly slowed down.

As soon as the cannon stopped, the soldiers hurried into the position, and when they looked down, they saw that the front of the position, which was originally full of corpses, was already in disarray, whether it was corpses or weapons, all of them were blown into parts or buried deep in the earth. The purpose of the Yankees in doing this is perhaps to prevent weapons and ammunition from being used by us! But they certainly didn't know that this time we had enough ammunition to put their entire division here.

To the surprise of the fighters. This time, the Yankees did not rush up, but only saw from a distance the American troops building trenches, pulling barbed wire, and laying mines on the high ground on the periphery.

"What are they doing here?" Seeing this, Huzi couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "So you won't fight?" I haven't had a good time yet! ”

"Don't worry!" I laughed and said, "They're on fire by us!" The Yankees are all princes, and their lives are worth a lot! This time, we killed four or five hundred, and I was not convinced, this is to surround us first, and want to take revenge on all of us! ”

"That's good! I'm afraid they won't come! As he spoke, Huzi stuffed bullets into the ammunition tray of the turntable machine gun again.

"Deputy Battalion Commander Cui!" At this time, Cui Zhenyou ran to my side with a cat, and asked with some concern: "The enemy has occupied the high ground around us, and has laid out barbed wire and mines, and its intention is obvious, that is, to surround us here and prevent us from getting supplies, and our ammunition ......."

"Don't worry! Comrade Choi! Hearing this, Park Chung-sun couldn't help but say: "Those Yankees really want to surround us to death." But what they didn't expect was that this was a supply depot, and if you saw the piles of food and ammunition in the tunnels, you wouldn't bother with that! ”

"I see!" Cui Zhenyou couldn't help but increase his confidence when he heard this: "It's good to have food and ammunition, it's not a problem to hold here for one or two days, it seems that this time the Yankees are going to waste their efforts." ”

Hearing this, I suddenly thought of a deficiency in the arrangement, and couldn't help frowning, and hurriedly recruited Huzi to my side, and a few people sat in the trenches and had a short meeting.

"Comrades!" I went straight to the point and said: "The Yankees have always thought that we are short of food and ammunition, but this time we just have enough food and ammunition, we must take advantage of this and make the Yankees suffer a few more big losses." But let's also be careful, the 307.3 highland will become our dead end, if this highland is lost, then ......"

I won't say much about the rest, and everyone will soon understand what I mean.

"Don't worry! Deputy Battalion Commander Cui! Only Huzi shouted indifferently: "Our three highlands are so close, if the 307.3 heights can't hold up, we can go to reinforcements at any time, and our mortars can hit that side, right?" It's so easy to lose! ”

"What if the Yankees attack all three of us at the same time?" I couldn't help but say: "Our original assumption was that Heights 259 and 273.1 were facing the enemy's firepower, so we put all the main forces on these two heights, and Heights 307.3 were mostly wounded, but now it has become our weak point......"

"Send reinforcements to 307.3 Heights now!" Cui Zhenyou suggested.

"No!" I shook my head and said: "Not to mention the lack of troops on the 259 and 273.1 heights themselves, the US troops are definitely monitoring us now, once we have a team to leave the position and move towards the 307.3 heights, they will soon blockade it with artillery fire, and we can really reach the 307.3 heights with few reinforcements, and the gains outweigh the losses." And by doing so, we are undoubtedly telling the Yankees that our weakness is in the 307.3 heights, and let them strengthen their attacks on the 307.3 heights! ”

"Then ...... now" Everyone felt justified when they heard this, and they didn't know what to do for a while.

"The U.S. military will soon attack us!" Cui Zhenyou couldn't help but look at the direction of the U.S. troops worriedly and said: "The Yankees use sandbags to build trenches, and they build positions very quickly, once they build their positions, it is time for them to attack, and then they will definitely find that the firepower of the 307.3 high ground is insufficient......

"There's only one way now!" After thinking about it, I quickly decided: "I'll go to Heights 307.3 to see the situation, and the two Heights 259 and 273.1 will immediately start building tunnels to store food and ammunition." We must hold out until dark, and then disperse the food and ammunition from the 307.3 heights to the other two heights, so as not to destroy our entire army if the 307.3 heights are lost."

"Yes!"

"Choi Zhenyou!" I then ordered: "This high ground is under your command, and you must take care to preserve your strength, and you must not let the enemy cross the position by half a step. Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" Cui Zhenyou responded, and a surprised expression couldn't help but appear on his face, and at the same time, his eyes unconsciously glanced at Huzi.

I know what he means, Ho-ja is the company commander, and Choi Jung-woo is also the company commander, but I handed over the command to Choi Jeong-woo, who is the People's Army, and not to Hu-ja, who is a volunteer, which is not only a little surprising to Choi Jung-woo, but even Park Chung-sun and Ho-ja are also a little surprised. Especially Huzi, he was the most reluctant to let people look down on him, and this time he couldn't bear to hear my order.

"Huzi!" Seeing this, I couldn't help patting him on the shoulder and said: "Cooperate well with the comrades of the People's Army to fight, if you lose the face of our volunteers in front of the comrades of the People's Army, then our brothers have nothing to do!" Do you understand? ”

"Understood!" When Huzi saw that I had called him a brother, he was depressed for a moment, and he smirked at me and simply agreed.

Seeing this, I was relieved, although Cui Zhenyou had been a soldier in the People's Liberation Army for two years, but it was not easy for the troops of two different countries to fight together, and if I was here, everyone would listen to my orders, and there would be nothing to say. But as soon as I leave, one is the company commander of the Volunteer Army and the other is the company commander of the People's Army, and neither of them will obey anyone.

But in all fairness, it is true that Cui Zhenyou is more suitable for commanding. Huzi was too reckless, and he didn't care about anything when he killed the enemy. And Cui Zhenyou is relatively much calmer, much more clever, and has some courage, which can be seen from the fact that he told the lieutenant colonel that he was covering in the rear and came back with his troops privately.

After shaking hands with Huzi and the others, I walked towards the 307.3 heights with my rifle in my hand, and I carefully followed the communication trench to the foot of the mountain, but when I passed through the open area more than 200 meters wide between the two heights, I was still discovered by enemy observers. They probably thought I was a correspondent or something, and suddenly a burst of artillery fire came at me.

Fortunately, my life is relatively large, and the distance of more than 200 meters is not very long, and after stopping and stopping a few times, I finally came to the 307.3 highland without danger.

But as soon as I walked up to the 307.3 heights, I found that the situation was much worse than I thought, because the positive slope of the 307.3 heights was directly opposite the road that crossed the 259 heights and the 273.1 heights, while the anticline had become a positive slope because the enemy had gone around the back, and the only place where the 307.3 heights could be defended was a small piece of land on the top of the mountain......
