"Boom!"

With the order of the commander of the South Korean army battalion, Li Doo-hyun, the ten mortars lined up fifty meters in front of him, almost at the same time, the cannon rumbled, because the sound of the shells fired was so loud that even the gunners standing next to the shells couldn't help but quickly cover their ears with their hands.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

When the cannon sounded, just after a blink of an eyelid, on the hillside a kilometer away in front of the commander of the South Korean army Lee Doo-hyun, there was a violent explosion of shells falling down, which could be described as earth-shattering, and people would have a deafening feeling after listening to it.

In less than ten seconds, the shells fired by each artillery shell landed on the hillside and exploded, and then suddenly stopped again.

Immediately afterwards, the commander of the South Korean battalion, Lee Doo-hyun, once again gave an order to the artillery company: "Everyone in the artillery company obeys the order and will fire artillery shells at the hillside one kilometer in front of us without interruption for the next ten minutes." Don't stop without my orders! ”

As soon as the commander of the ROK battalion, Lee Doo-hyun, gave an order, the ROK soldiers of the artillery company of the 10 mortars operating in a row immediately hurriedly placed shells in the chambers and aimed at the hillside one kilometer ahead of them and bombarded them indiscriminately.

Suddenly, within a radius of 100 meters from the hillside near the north side, it immediately became within the range of the cannonballs falling, and the cannon roared, the landslides cracked, the smoke of gunpowder rose everywhere, and the smell of gunpowder was irritating.

Originally, Li Doo-hyun, commander of the South Korean army, believed that even if he could not see what the situation was on the hillside, after this intensive and indiscriminate bombardment, he believed that within 10 minutes, many soldiers of the small unit of the Chinese Volunteers with less than 200 troops on the hillside would definitely be killed.

However, to the great disappointment of the commander of the South Korean battalion, Lee Doo-hyun, was that when they were just about to order the artillery company to fire shells, they were all seen by Sun Lei, the platoon commander of the third company and one platoon of the Sharp Knife Company, who was in charge of the guard duty on the north side in the trench on the hillside, and he secretly guessed in his heart at that time that the South Korean troops in the battalion one kilometer north of the hillside where they were definitely bombarding the hillside where they were indiscriminately bombarding the hillside where they were located.

So, Sun Lei quickly reported the matter to the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, and then all the volunteer soldiers of the three companies of the sharp knife company in the trenches hid in the reinforced air-raid shelter.

That is to say, even if the cannon roared on the hillside and was blown up to a mess, for the volunteer soldiers of the three companies of the sharp knife company who had long been hiding in the air-raid shelter, they were simply unscathed and had nothing to do.

At the same time, Sun Lei also observed that before the South Korean army fired the shells, it also specially dispatched about two companies of South Korean soldiers to charge the hillside where they were located.

In this regard, in Sun Lei's opinion, if the South Korean troops of this battalion shelled the hillside where they were located, it would not last too long, at most more than ten minutes.

Because as soon as the two companies of South Korean soldiers rushed to the foot of the hillside, the artillery in the rear would stop shelling, and in any case, they would not be so stupid as to kill even their own people on the hillside.

In the past, Sun Lei was in the air-raid shelter of a row and a squad where he was located, but this time, he hid in the same air-raid shelter with the company commander Zhao Yifa, the instructor Wang Wenju, and the soldiers of the cooking class.

Although the three companies of the Sharp Knife Company reinforced the air-raid shelters that had been dug in the past few days, the artillery batteries of the ROK army continued to carry out indiscriminate bombardment on the hillside without targeting any fixed targets.

As a result, the outside of the dugout is still very strong, but from time to time some dust falls from the inside of the dugout, and occasionally there is some vibration, giving people a crumbling feeling.

Zhao Yifa, the company commander who was quite worried about this, couldn't help but sigh with worry to the people sitting next to him: "Damn, this group of South Korean puppet soldiers, I don't know where to get a few cannons, actually bombed the hillside where we are located.

"If they bomb it so indiscriminately, it is estimated that this air-raid shelter we built will not be a problem to last for a few hours. If they don't have fun bombing, even if it takes a day, the air-raid shelter we have finally excavated and built will have to be bombed and collapsed by them. Alas, it's a pity, except for a few light machine guns, the rest of our weapons and equipment are all rifles and grenades, and it's hard to fight back. ”

Not only the company commander Zhao Yifa, but even the instructor Wang Wenju maintained a pessimistic view at this time, and he sighed closely: "Yes, Company Commander Zhao is right, now we can only hide in the air-raid shelter, just like a turtle with a shrunken head, once we rush out, we will be killed by shells falling from the sky, but our weapons and equipment are too backward, there is no way to compare with these South Korean puppet army."

"I don't know when this shelling will be a head, I really hope the shelling will stop soon. Once the 1,000-strong or so South Korean troops attacking our hillside attack us under the cover of this heavy artillery fire, it will be terrible for us. ”

Hearing that company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju both showed a pessimistic mood in their words, Sun Lei, who was sitting next to him, said very optimistically: "Company commander, instructor, you don't have to worry too much.

"Didn't I just say that about a kilometer north of us, the South Korean army has sent about two companies of troops to charge on foot on the hillside where we are.

"As soon as the South Korean soldiers of these two companies started to climb the hill, the shelling would naturally stop. According to my speculation, it should not take more than ten minutes for this shelling to stop. ”

Sure enough, as Sun Lei expected, the shelling lasted for ten minutes and then stopped, and the moment Sun Lei's artillery stopped, he hurriedly asked the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor who were sitting next to him to take the initiative to fight: "Company commander, instructor, if I guess correctly, the strength of the two companies of the South Korean army should have arrived at the foot of the mountain on the north side of the hill by now."

"Now, I ask you two old superiors to go to war, there are many people in our platoon, there are more than 50 comrades, let us be responsible for the two companies of the charge of the Korean soldiers in the platoon."

Company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, who were sitting next to each other, looked at each other and immediately said in unison: "Platoon Commander Sun, we both approved your request. ”
