Chapter 48: The Battle of Tongdeng (18)

Chapter 48: The Battle of Tongdeng (18)

"The company commander can't rush down" Junko shouted at me: "I have sacrificed two comrades, and the enemy situation is very different from what is drawn on the drawings."

The old militiaman can't be blamed for this, he built the fort decades ago, and we certainly can't hope that the internal structure of the fort is the same as it was when the French used it to resist the Japanese decades ago.

"With explosives, grenades," I shouted at Junko.

In the enclosed space of the battery, the gunfire was like the sound of cannons, which forced me to raise the volume.

"It's useless," Junko replied loudly at me, "That bunker is suspended in the air, between the first and second floors, and the explosive 'medicine' bag can't be blown up."

Now I can't help but wonder, maybe a bazooka or a recoilless gun will be useful at this point, and it would be even better if there was a flamethrower. But because we were worried that the Vietnamese army would be suspicious of us, we didn't bring these equipment with us at all.

"Kill ......" At this time, the sound of killing outside the fort shook the sky, and the soldiers of the 637th Regiment rushed towards the fort on three sides under the command of Commander Zhao.

But the attack of the soldiers did not go so smoothly, the Ghost Forts had two layers 'exposed' from the ground, we occupied the first floor, and the second layer was on the ground. This means that the turret has not completely lost its defensive ability, and the 'shooting' holes in the second layer can still play a role......

Sure enough, after a while, several flares were 'fired' out of the 'shooting' hole on the second floor, and looking out along the 'shooting' hole, the dense PLA soldiers were rushing towards the fort with all kinds of weapons almost without any cover.

Soon the machine guns rang out, and the PLA soldiers fell in rows, and rushed up like 'waves' and 'waves', and then fell in rows......

"Company Commander" Junko also saw this scene and couldn't help but glance at me.

I know what he means, he wants me to give an order to solve this situation as soon as possible, Xiaobing is like this, he is used to pushing the problem to his superiors, and they just wait to listen to the order

But what can I do? Assault on the second floor?

There were only ten of us in all, and two of us had just died. In such a situation, our assault is not only useless, but dangerous. Because once we are all almost dead, then this first layer will fall back into the hands of the Vietnamese army, and the blow to the attacking troops will be even greater

Don't attack?

It doesn't seem to work, the defense of the Ghost Tun Fort is too strong, and the Vietnamese army seems to only need the second layer of firepower to resist the attack of our army. And we, although we have captured the first layer, we are helpless about this situation, and can only watch this happen......

It can't be attacked, and if it doesn't attack, is there no other way?

Of course, there is a way, my 'sexual' personality is not to hang from a tree, it was like this before, and it is like this now......

So I quickly diverted my eyes and attention away from the passage blocked by the machine guns, and in the dim light of the flashlight, I noticed several flights of steps leading up to the top of the battery, on which there seemed to be a cement slab that could be moved.

"Here," I put the gun on my back and walked up the steps. The cement slab was heavy, weighing at least a few dozen pounds, and with the help of the straight, we were struggling to push it away. Then the two of us jumped up with our waists, and sure enough, it was the top of the fort.

"Company commander, what are you doing here?" Junzi couldn't help asking: "This is all to the top, this is the place where the more devils fight."

"Hmm" I nodded, in fact, He Guoan drew this exit very clearly on the drawings drawn for us, but we have been concerned about how to attack the second layer, so we didn't notice it at all.

Merely...... It doesn't seem to be of much use to get here, the more devils are on the second floor of the fort, and we can't beat them on the top of this fort

Suddenly, a volley of bullets whistled past us, causing Junko and I to lie down on the turret.

Could it be that the enemy's bullets will still hit here?

Shunzi and I couldn't help but look at each other, and after a while we realized that it was not the Vietnamese army who 'shot' at us just now, but our own troops, who were treating us as Vietnamese devils

"Inform Commander Zhao immediately" I said to Junko: "The first layer of the fort and the top of the fort have been controlled by us, let the soldiers watch the dots"

"Yes," Junko replied, turning around and getting down.

I didn't wait for the news to reach Commander Zhao, I climbed a few steps forward on the fort point, and slowly poked my head out. I saw that the 'shooting' holes on the second floor were frantically spewing tongues of fire outward, and occasionally flares were fired, clearly illuminating the charging soldiers on the inclined plane under the guns of the Vietnamese army.

Since it was at night, and the Vietnamese army's 'shooting' was very violent, the fire from the muzzle of the Vietnamese army's guns was very obvious and 'exposed' the location of the 'shooting' hole. Seeing this, I couldn't help but move, turned around and quickly crawled into the 'hole', and got into the first layer with a hula.

"All of them," I commanded the soldiers, "two guard the 'gate', two guard the second floor, and the others each carry a box of grenades, remember to bring a few more with their backpacks...... If you don't, take it from the corpse of the Yue devil."

"Yes," the soldiers replied, and although they didn't know what I was ordering, they still carried out my order meticulously.

However, after a while, the three of them, Li Shui'bo' and Junzi, each of them followed with a box of grenades. The first floor is full of bullets and grenades left behind by the Yue Devils, so it won't be difficult to find a few boxes of grenades.

"Company commander, what are you doing with these things?" Just now, because he almost died under the guns of his own people, Shunzi asked with palpitations: "If our people see this, and treat us as more devils, we will be hit with one shot......"

"Have you informed Captain Zhao?"

"Notified"

"Isn't that it?"

"But this is ...... in my heart," Junko said: "It's still a little numb, if you die in the hands of your own people, how wronged it is."

The "company commander" from his hometown also said suspiciously: "The comrades of the 637th Regiment are bleeding and dying, we should find a way to fight to the second layer as soon as possible......

"You all do it with me," I didn't explain, taking a backpack strap and grabbing a few grenades, then wrapping them around a few times to tie them tight. Lying on the top of the turret, he crawled forward for some distance to the edge of the turret, spotted a machine gun 'firing' hole below, and violently ignited the grenade and put it down.

A grenade was tied to one end of the backpack strap and the other end was tied to my hand, so the bundle of grenades was also dangling. Because the grenade had a delay of a few seconds to explode, I even had time to adjust the height of the cluster grenade so that it was facing the machine gun 'shot' hole, and then hurriedly retracted my hand and head......

Then I heard a loud "boom", and a burst of stone cracks and powder flew outside the bunker. Before I could poke my head out to see the results, a few people from my hometown couldn't wait to stick out their heads.

"Hey, it's really blown up" Junko exclaimed excitedly: "This method is so easy to blow up the 'shooting' hole of the more devils, it's fun and not dangerous, let me try it too......"

As he spoke, he threw the grenade into another 'shot' hole that was emitting...... There was another "boom", and another 'shot' hole was blown up steadily

Now the soldiers are energetic, and they will start without saying a word. In normal times, if you want to break into the bunker of the Vietnamese devil and stuff the explosives into the 'shooting' hole to blast it, you will have to pay the price of your life, and often even if you pay the price of your life, you may not be able to do it. Just like now, the thousands of soldiers of the 637th Regiment divided into several sides to besiege the Vietnamese army, but there was still no way to get within 50 meters of the battery. Therefore, it is not easy to blow up the 'shooting' holes of the enemy's pillboxes......

But now...... The three or four of us can easily blow up the enemy's holes one after another, just like a mixed family, and the excitement is naturally not something that outsiders can experience.

Several fighters on top of the turret soon began to work together, some were responsible for tying grenades, some were responsible for passing, and some were responsible for exploding...... The backpack belt is also passed up from downstairs one by one, and there are a lot of devils who have died on the first floor, and if the backpack belt is not enough, use their clothes and 'pants'......

It's just that this makes those Yue devils who shoot in the fort suffer, they are not at all inexplicable, and they don't understand how the explosions came from again and again. There is no enemy approaching outside the 'shooting' hole, why is it that the 'shooting' holes are blown up one after another?

But even if they knew how we were blowing up the 'shot' holes, it seemed that there was nothing they could do about us, the grenades were all hanging in the air, and they were still outside the battery. It is said that the walls of this fort are several meters thick, and even if they clearly saw a large string of smoke-emitting grenades hanging from the 'shooting' hole, they were helpless......

This is not to say that we have blown up all the 'shooting' holes, in fact there are at least 30 or 40 'shooting' holes on the side of the second layer of the battery, and we only blew up a dozen of them after a long time with few men. It's because of the Vietnamese soldiers who are hiding behind the 'shooting' holes that we are afraid of being bombed.

When the 'shooting' hole was damaged by a cluster grenade, although it could not threaten the Vietnamese troops behind the cement wall several meters thick, the shock 'wave' and the cement blocks that were lifted up poured into the 'shooting' hole would directly kill and injure the Vietnamese soldiers who 'shot' at the 'shooting' hole.

When the Vietnamese troops in the fort saw that we were able to blow up the 'shooting' holes one after another with such 'precision' accuracy, and at the same time directly killed and injured the 'shooting' hands, it was inevitable that panic would arise. They wonder who will be next? Are we going to let the enemy blow up one after the other?

In fact, it is exactly what they think, as long as we give us a little more time, we are fully capable of blowing up those 'shot' holes one by one.

As soon as the Vietnamese firepower weakened, the fighters of the 637th Regiment quickly 'closed' to the fort, which made it difficult for us because we were worried that the cluster grenades would accidentally injure the soldiers. But we soon realized that all of these worries were unwarranted, and we should worry about ourselves

I saw that a few warriors holding flame ** weapons suddenly appeared in the 'tide', and I just came to scream "lie down", and a hot 'wave' surged wildly. In an instant, the fort was burned up and down into a fireball.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart, this girl spitted fire and didn't look at it, even the first layer we occupied, didn't it? Even the top of the fort was on fire. However, it seems that those anti-chemical weapons can't be blamed, this flame weapon doesn't have as much accuracy as a rifle. This thing is like a water spray gun, especially when it is 'excited' just now, and no one knows where it will 'shoot' when the pillar of fire erupts

"It's all right," I shouted to the soldiers.

"It's okay"

"It's okay"

"'' the damn drop, it's almost a roast pig," the hometown man snorted dissatisfiedly.

"It's okay, all withdraw to the battery"

"Yes," the soldiers replied, turning back and running towards the mouth of the 'hole'.

"Don't Move"

"Nokumatsu Page"

……

As soon as we returned to the fort, we saw a group of PLA troops rushing in, and without saying a word, they pointed their guns at us. These guys are all red-eyed, not to mention that we are still wearing the uniforms of the Vietnamese army, if we hadn't 'handed over' before, it might be our own people, but I am afraid that they would have shot us into a hornet's nest.

"My own people" I said to the group of PLA soldiers easily: "I am Cui Wei, and this layer is my own people"

"Company Commander Cui" A bloodstained cadre came up and shook my hand, and only after seeing my appearance clearly did he become suspicious: "What is the situation now?" Why is the resistance of the Vietnamese army still so fierce? ”

"The second floor can't be penetrated," I pointed to the entrance to the second floor.

As soon as the cadre of the "anti-chemical warfare soldiers" beckoned, an anti-chemical warfare soldier carrying an oil bottle on his back walked up, and without saying a word, he was shooting at the entrance.

But it seemed that the fire could not be burned at all, and it was all piled up on the steps, and instead roasted our first floor like a steamer. If it weren't for the 'shot' holes in the wall, we would have to suffocate.

After a while, when I had gone out, several soldiers cautiously shone their flashlights downward. He turned to us and reported, "Battalion commander...... There's one more iron 'door', and it's all blocked."

It was then that I realized that I had met a battalion commander at the regiment headquarters, and that he was still wearing a bandage on his head at that time.

"Damn it," the battalion commander gritted his teeth and scolded fiercely, and then shouted a little hysterically: "Bomb me with explosives, until I blow the door open, I'm going to tear these fuck-......"

"Battalion commander" I dissuaded: "You can't blow it up with explosives, and the Vietnamese army will lay this 'door' between the first and second layers in order to prevent us from rushing in." If you can blow it up with explosives, then this 'door' is still the same as not? ”

"Da da da......" At this time, the gunfire suddenly rang out, and a scream was heard from the bottom of the stairs.

We couldn't help but be stunned, and soon realized that the Vietnamese army still had 'shooting' holes at that big 'gate'.

These devils are really cunning, they don't shoot when our army reconnoiters for the first time, and they only shoot when we think we are okay and defenseless to go down and install explosives......

The battalion commander of the "dog day" roared at the soldier next to him in a hoarse voice: "Do you see where the 'shooting' hole is?" ”

The warriors all shook their heads silently, and all the warriors who knew where the 'shot' hole was, died at the bottom of the stairs.

"......up again," the battalion commander seemed to have lost his mind a little.

I can understand him very well, seeing so many comrades-in-arms and subordinates dying around him, it is a person who will go crazy. But I can't let him do that.

I stopped the soldier who was about to go down with the explosives bag, glanced coldly at the battalion commander and said, "This place is now under my command."

"Why are you?" The battalion commander was angry, so he naturally refused to let him take half a step: "They are my soldiers, you are just a company commander"

"I know better than you do," I met his gaze viciously, pointing to the battery at my feet and said, "I can make you die a few fewer people, and I can knock this battery down"

Hearing this, the battalion commander couldn't help but be stunned, what I said was indeed the truth, if I hadn't broken through the first layer with a trick, if we hadn't made a 'mess' on the first layer, I was afraid that these soldiers would not have been able to rush here if they were all dead.

Actually, I can solve this problem in an easier way. As long as I call Commander Zhao, the command will soon be in my hands, but I am reluctant to do this, because I have always disliked relying on others to fight for power for myself.

Looking at the voiceless battalion commander, I added: "You think clearly, you have sacrificed a lot of subordinates, do you want them to sacrifice in vain again?" Is their life important, or is your face important?"

The battalion commander gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, tell me your way"

"Blow up all the 'shooting' holes," I replied without thinking about it: "Completely seal the Vietnamese army in the fort."

"Blow up the 'shot' hole? How to fry? The battalion commander's eyes were full of suspicion.

"Shunzi, Li Shui 'Bo'" I didn't answer, waved my hand to the two of them, and said: "You take the battalion commander to the top of the fort, teach them how to blow up the 'shooting' hole, and the other people are responsible for transporting explosive 'medicine' bags and grenades to the top of the fort."

"Yes," Junzi and Li Shui 'wave' responded.

To the embarrassment of the battalion commander, more than half of his soldiers also consciously shouted. In fact, the hearts of soldiers are very clear about who is more qualified to command this battle, and who can command this battle better

At this time, a communications soldier ran up with a walkie-talkie on his back and reported: "Commander Zhao is calling, looking for you."

"I'm Cui Wei," I answered, taking the microphone.

"How's it going? Did you knock it down? On the other end of the phone, there was the anxious voice of Head Zhao.

"Not yet," I replied, "but it's almost there, please order the other troops not to attack for the time being, we are cleaning the 'shooting' hole of the second layer of the battery, and when we finish cleaning the 'shooting' hole, the ghost of the Ghost Fort, will not bite"

"No problem," Head Zhao agreed.

"And" I added at the end: "I need to concentrate all the explosives, gasoline and other explosives in the regiment, and organize the manpower to transport them, and transport them as soon as the 'shooting' holes are cleared......
