Chapter 113: The Platoon Commander Sacrifices
"Ban...... Squad leader, you, look at it, the south side of the highway is also ...... There was also a detachment of American devils. There are so many American devils on the north and south sides of this highway, let's ...... Let's ...... How long will you stay here? ”
A soldier of the assault squad who was ambushed behind the hill saw that the soldiers of the American army who had just been repelled by them had withdrawn to the north side of the road, but he found that another American army unit was coming in the direction of them from more than 100 meters away from the south side of the road.
As soon as the soldier of the assault squad of the third company of the Sharp Knife Company and the first platoon of assault squad not only shivered from the cold, but also trembled when he spoke, Sun Lei turned his head to look in the direction of the south side of the road.
Sure enough, as the soldier in his squad said, an American army appeared on the south side of the highway at some point, and stopped about a hundred meters away from them.
In Sun Lei's opinion at this time, after a fierce battle for more than two hours, they repelled the two charges of hundreds of infantry of the US army on the north side of the road, causing more than half of the soldiers of the three companies of the Sharp Knife Company and the other companies that coordinated along the line to fight suffered heavy losses.
But at this time, another US military unit rushed from the south side of the road, and according to Sun Lei, it must have come to meet the US military unit on the north side of the road.
The two US troops on the north and south sides of the highway formed a north-south flank attack on the three companies of the Sharp Knife Company guarding Songgu Peak at this time, as well as the volunteer troops of the entire regiment along the Songgu Peak position.
In particular, the first to bear the brunt of the sharp knife company that held on to the position of Songgu Peak will suffer greater losses and casualties in the future, and the battle will become more tragic.
After repelling the two charges of the infantry of the American army on the north side of the road, for the three companies and one platoon guarding the front line of the Songgu Peak position, they suffered even heavier losses, from the original strength of nearly 50 people, nearly 30 soldiers of the first platoon died heroically at once, and many others were seriously wounded.
After a full battle, there were only twenty-two people left in the three companies and a platoon of people who could continue to participate in the battle.
According to incomplete statistics, among the platoons fighting at the forefront of the Songgufeng position, Sun Lei served as the squad leader's assault squad, and now there are only ten fighters left, Zhang Dake is the squad leader's sharp knife squad with only eight fighters left, and Qian Liang's red flag squad as the squad leader has the most serious attrition, including him, there are only four fighters left.
First glanced at a large number of American soldiers gathered on the north and south sides of the road, Sun Lei's eyes were full of hatred, but when he withdrew his gaze, and then saw the corpses of the soldiers who died heroically in a pool of blood not far in front of him, he was immediately wet with tears.
Without waiting for the tears to flow down his cheeks, Sun Lei raised one arm, wiped away the two rows of hot tears with his sleeve, gritted the crown of his teeth, and looked at the shivering warrior lying next to him with gentle eyes.
Immediately afterwards, he replied loudly in a tone full of righteous indignation: "For our assault squad, for our platoon, and for all the soldiers of our entire Sharp Knife Company and Third Company, the next thing to do is to hold on to the position of Songgu Peak.
"No matter how many times these American soldiers on the north and south sides of the road charge, before receiving the order of the superior commander to retreat, even if they fight to the last person, they will definitely not be able to take half a step back, we are in the position!"
After Sun Lei's generous statement was completed, even Zhang Dake, who had always had a very unharmonious relationship with him and often fought-for-tat, also responded with great approval at this time: "Okay, Sun Lei, you kid said this kind of thing."
"Don't look, I used to look down on you kid very much, but now I still agree with what you just said. Especially the last sentence you said, people are in the position. ”
When Zhang Dake just finished speaking, Qian Liang, the leader of the Red Flag squad who was lying not far away, also echoed at this time: "Yes, the people are in the position!" ”
At this moment, for the entire Third Company, which suffered very heavy casualties, especially for their platoon, which was at the forefront of the Songgu Peak position, it was a time when morale was relatively low.
Under the leadership of Sun Lei, Zhang Dake and Qian Liang, the three squad leaders, the soldiers who were still alive all shouted loudly together: "People are in the position!" ”
Suddenly, at this time, a soldier asked in a surprised tone: "Three squad leaders, why are our platoon commanders missing?" When we repelled the charge of the American infantry on the north side of the road just now, was the platoon commander still with us? ”
If this soldier hadn't asked at this time, the twenty-two soldiers in the platoon who were still alive would have really forgotten their platoon commander, Feng Kun.
Although, on the north and south sides of the road fifty meters away in front of them, there were a group of American troops dozens or hundreds of times higher than them, but after launching two charges just now, they suddenly stopped attacking the position of Songgu Peak that they were defending.
The original "boom boom" and fierce artillery fire also stopped abruptly at this time, and even the gunfire of "da-da-da" and "bang-bang" just now disappeared, replaced by a death-like silence.
If someone throws an embroidery needle on the ground at this time, the sound of the embroidery needle hitting the ground can probably be heard clearly.
On the road that stretches from the east side of Songgu Peak, which is a mountain pack, to more than 100 meters away, there are not only corpses strewn all over the field, but also a large number of American soldiers lying crooked and bloody and a small number of volunteer soldiers, as well as guns and weapons scattered all over the place with varying degrees of damage.
And when Sun Lei found that the entire position suddenly quieted down, he discussed with Zhang Dake and Qian Liang, and together with the rest of the soldiers, he began to look around them at the volunteer soldiers lying on the ground, looking for the whereabouts of their platoon commander Feng Kun.
After about two minutes, Sun Lei suddenly heard a soldier of the assault squad ten meters away, shouting in a crying voice: "Squad leader Sun, come and see, I found our platoon leader, he, he has sacrificed!" ”
Just now, Sun Lei, Zhang Dake and Qian Liang, the three squad leaders, were still lying on the ground crawling and searching, and after hearing the loud shouts of the assault squad soldiers, the three of them immediately stood up from their respective places and rushed over desperately.
"Platoon Commander, Platoon Commander, Platoon Commander, wake up......"
The twenty-two soldiers who were alive in the first platoon of the three companies of the sharp knife company rushed to the corpse of the platoon commander Feng Kun, and they all shouted with tears.
And the platoon commander Feng Kun, who was shot in the abdomen and had blood coagulated, had already stopped breathing, and his body had become cold, and the soldiers squatting in front of him were screaming hoarsely, and he always closed his eyes and fell asleep forever, never waking up again.
