"Niu Tiezhu, Deng Sanshui, Sun Lei, you three are good. I am very pleased to see that you have not only successfully completed the arduous tasks assigned by the company commander and instructors, but also been able to come back alive and sound. ”

Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander of the third company of the Volunteer Army, saw Sun Lei and the three of them returning from the mission, he hurriedly stepped forward, with excitement in his eyes, tears in his eyes, and sighed with surprise and joy.

Sun Lei, who was covered with snow and mud, and the three of them stood in front of the platoon commander Liu Sanshun, but they did not show any joy, but they all looked sad, like mourning.

You must know that when they went on a mission, there were a total of 9 fighters in a squad, but when the three of them returned to the hillside on the north side of the road, the other six fighters in the squad died heroically, how could they make the three of them feel infinite sadness.

To say that Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander, is not in vain, when he first saw Sun Lei, Niu Tiezhu and Deng Sanshui, the whole person was full of joy, and suddenly saw that the faces of these three people were not quite right, he immediately realized something, and quickly returned his complexion to normal.

I saw that Liu Sanshun, as the platoon commander, patted Sun Lei, Deng Sanshui and Niu Tiezhu on the shoulders successively, and comforted them: "You three rest assured, as the sharp knife squad of our third company, your first class can complete this extremely difficult task and blow up the four tanks, and I will ask the company commander and instructor for you to take credit."

"In addition, I will also make a report to the company commander and instructor for the six soldiers who died in your class, and posthumously award them glorious revolutionary martyrs. Their families in their homeland will also be comforted, and at the same time, they will be proud and proud of them. ”

At this moment, Sun Lei is interested in whether he can get the reward from the company, and what he values most is whether the six comrades-in-arms who died heroically can be treated as they should in the process of carrying out the task of blowing up the tank.

After listening to what the platoon commander Liu Sanshun said, Sun Lei was still very satisfied with this, because this time he was able to successfully blow up the four tanks of the US-South Korean coalition army, and the six soldiers who sacrificed also made their due contribution and paid for their precious lives.

However, Sun Lei still asked the platoon commander Liu Sanshun for instructions in front of the whole platoon soldiers: "Platoon commander, I have one more thing, I hope to get your approval."

"That is, when this battle is over, I will go back and find the bodies of the six soldiers who died in our squad, and it is best to transport their bodies back to the rear or to the country.

"If I can't do it, after I find the bodies of the six of them, I will bury them here with my own hands, and I don't want their bodies to be exposed in the wilderness no matter what."

As soon as Sun Lei's words fell, suddenly the atmosphere on the hillside on the north side of the highway suddenly became full of sadness, and Liu Sanshun, as the platoon commander, was wet with tears in an instant.

With trembling lips, he said to Sun Lei, who was standing in front of him: "Comrade Sun Lei, you can rest assured." Although, with our current logistical support capabilities, we are not able to transport the remains of the soldiers back to China, but after this battle is over, I will lead the soldiers to bury the six soldiers who died in your squad.

"Of course, not only the six soldiers who died in your class, but all the soldiers who died in this battle, we can't let them die in the wilderness, we must strive to make sure that no one is left behind, so we bury them.

"Also, we're going to mark the grave with things like stones and trees. Wait until we win this just war in the future, and then report to the organization and transport all the bodies of all the sacrificed soldiers of our platoon back to China. ”

After listening to the touching words of platoon commander Liu Sanshun, the soldiers of the second and third squads, who were still immersed in the joy of victory just now, also had red eyes one by one, and they didn't even know which one of them was sobbing silently.

In fact, for the soldiers of the Volunteer Army, the moment they crossed the Yalu River Bridge, they already knew that there must be many people among them who have never returned, but in order to protect their homes and defend the country, they are obliged to choose to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and defend the northeast gate of the motherland with their blood and flesh.

Once there is a war, for both warring parties, they will do their best to minimize the casualties of their own side of the army, but as long as there is a war, there will be casualties, and a brutal war will lead to a large number of casualties, which is unavoidable.

And this battle has not yet begun, and none of the remaining soldiers know whether they will survive after the battle is over, even if they face this battle with the mentality of seeing death as home, they are still somewhat frightened in their hearts.

For a grassroots soldier who may die at any time on the battlefield, they are naturally not afraid of sacrifice, but they are unwilling to die in their hearts once they are unfortunately killed, and finally end up with a miserable end of dying in a foreign country and burying their bones abroad.

When Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander who was on the front line of the battle, said that he would transport the bodies of all the sacrificed soldiers in the platoon back to China one by one after the end of the war, return to the embrace of the motherland, and place them in his homeland and hometown, how could the soldiers not be moved.

However, these red-eyed soldiers never thought that if Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander who made such a solemn promise to them, unfortunately died in battle, who should they go to to fulfill his promise? Among them, no one would have thought of this.

Just as all the remaining soldiers in a platoon were immersed in a sad atmosphere with their eyes open, suddenly, two soldiers in charge of vigilance shouted at Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander not far away, in an exclamatory voice: "Platoon commander, it's not good, there are more than 100 American devils climbing down the hill we are guarding." ”

Immediately afterwards, another soldier in charge of the vigilance also followed closely behind, and said loudly: "There are more than 100 other American devils, climbing up the hill opposite us." Platoon commander, what should we do next? ”

Liu Sanshun, the platoon commander who came to his senses, wiped his moist eyes twice with his sleeve, faced the soldiers in the surrounding row, and said loudly: "What else can we do, since they are going to hit our guns, then we can only beat these American devils down, and we will not let them climb up." ”
