Chapter 207: Blocking the Back Road
Company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju both stayed in the trenches, and even though the two of them held military binoculars and vigorously went to the north side of the hill to observe, the steepness of the north slope was 45 degrees.
In addition, the soldiers of the two companies of the South Korean army who originally charged on the hillside where they were located were squatting in the same place and squinting at a third of the slope, and the volunteer soldiers of the three companies and one row of the sharp knife company led by Sun Lei only walked a distance of fifty meters up the slope.
Therefore, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju, even with binoculars, could not observe the battle situation on the slope, which can be said to make the two of them anxious like ants on a hot pot - round and round.
What worries the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju even more is that since Sun Lei rushed out of the trench with the soldiers of the three companies and one platoon of the sharp knife company, almost five minutes have passed until now.
In the course of five minutes, there were no gunshots or shouts, and the entire north side of the hill was on the slope of only forty-five degrees, giving a sense of calm.
In the course of the battle between the two armies, the quieter it is, the more worrying and frightening it is, because it shows that one of them chose to defect to the other side because of the strength of the other, that is, to surrender to the other side. In other words, the other side won the battle without spending a single soldier, and the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor were worried that Sun Lei and the soldiers of their platoon would surrender to the enemy.
Just as the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju were in a hurry, they suddenly saw a man wearing the uniform of a South Korean soldier rushing out from the slope 100 meters away.
At first, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju mistakenly thought that a small group of South Korean troops who had launched an attack on the hillside rushed up.
I saw that the company commander Zhao Yifa immediately took the military binoculars and took a fixed look.
I really don't know if I don't look at it, but I don't know if I look at it.
At this time, Zhao Yifa, the company commander, saw through the telescope raised in his hand that the person who ran up from the slope two or three hundred meters away from the north was not the South Korean soldiers who attacked their hillside, but Sun Shulin, a soldier in the third company and one platoon of their sharp knife company.
It was only at this time that the company commander Zhao Yifa breathed a sigh of relief, and then handed the telescope to the instructor Wang Wenju who was standing next to him, and reminded: "Old Wang, don't worry too much, this guy who ran towards us is not a soldier of the Korean army at all, but a soldier Sun Shulin of our Sharp Knife Company in three companies and one row." I don't know what kind of medicine Sun Lei is selling in this kid's gourd, and the others didn't return, only sent Sun Shulin back alone. ”
Instructor Wang Wenju has always adhered to the principle of "hearing is false, seeing is believing", he picked up the telescope and took a closer look, and what he saw was not the soldiers of the South Korean army, but the soldier Sun Shulin of their sharp knife company and three rows, which made his heart steady.
Of course, sometimes, what the ears hear is not necessarily false, and what the eyes see is not necessarily true, which is really relative.
After waiting for about two minutes, the sharp knife that came from the snow and the soldier Sun Shulin, who was in a row of three companies, returned to the trench, and did not stop for even a moment, and quickly reported the words that Sun Lei told him, and he reported to the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju word for word.
Previously, the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, who were still frightened, after listening to Sun Shulin's report, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, and the heavy stone hanging on their chests finally fell to the ground safely at this time.
As soon as Sun Shulin finished speaking, the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju had a short discussion, and immediately ordered Liu Yiming, the commander of the second platoon, to take all the people in the second platoon to the slope to replace Sun Lei, and take a good look at the two Korean soldiers who were squatting on the ground.
As soon as the orders of the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju were delivered, Liu Yiming, who was a little impatient, immediately beckoned all the soldiers in their second platoon, brought their own guns and ammunition, and rushed out of the trench from Sun Shulin, who was leading the way in front.
When he first rushed out of the trenches, Liu Yiming felt that now that their second platoon went to capture two companies of South Korean soldiers, they could seize a lot of weapons, equipment, and rations from these South Korean soldiers.
But as a result, when Liu Yiming rushed to one-third of the slope with the soldiers of their second platoon, he found that it was not false at all that the Korean soldiers of two companies were squatting in Laxi, but all the weapons and equipment and rations on their bodies were given by Sun Lei and the soldiers in the first platoon.
Even if he was a little disappointed by this, Liu Yiming still had to implement the orders given by company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju.
After seeing Liu Yiming with the soldiers of the second platoon coming to replace them, Sun Lei said hello to Liu Yiming, and quickly led everyone in the first platoon to bypass the Korean soldiers of the two companies at the third of the slope, and chose to slide on the snow to the foot of the mountain.
After rushing to the foot of the mountain, Sun Lei felt that if they rushed directly to the Korean military camp a kilometer away, even the five or six hundred Korean soldiers would squat in place, but I am afraid that they would also resist stubbornly.
What's more, the five or six hundred South Korean soldiers who stayed a kilometer away still had ten mortars in their hands, and if they didn't get closer, it was estimated that the shells would blow up all the people in their platoon to pulp.
Therefore, Sun Lei felt that they could not rush directly this time, but chose a surprise attack.
After thinking for a while, Sun Lei came up with a surprise attack, he immediately took a platoon of all the soldiers, and spent almost an hour through a detour, through the hilly area on the east side, detoured to the rear of the five or six hundred Korean soldiers led by the commander of the Korean army battalion Li Douxuan, blocking their retreat.
Except for the commander of the Korean army battalion, Lee Doo-hyun, the five or six hundred Korean soldiers who stayed here with him all squatted on the ground and squawed, and after about an hour, they couldn't lift their pants, so they could only squat on the snow all the time, freezing their bare buttocks red.
As for the South Korean soldiers in the artillery company, they have no time to operate the cannon next to them now, so they only care about squatting on the ground and pulling thin.
Even the soldiers of the South Korean army, who were originally in charge of the vigilance mission around them, squatted in place and strained, and even if they found out about the enemy, they could not report to the commander of the South Korean army, Lee Doo-hyun.
The South Korean soldiers who were in charge of the first squad of guards in the north were easily captured by Sun Lei, and he led a platoon of soldiers to slowly approach, only less than 200 meters away from the five or six hundred South Korean soldiers who stayed in place led by the commander of the Han army.
