Chapter 107: Songgu Peak

The Songgu Peak that Wesan is going to is a very ordinary hill in western North Korea, and Songgu Peak is only a small mountain that is half dirt and half rock. Its location is located in the northeast of Longyuanli, forming a strong momentum with Longyuanli. To the north, you can reach Gunsumi and northwest to Akutagawa. Its main peak is 288.7 meters above sea level, and it extends about 100 meters east from the top of the mountain to the road.

At three o'clock in the afternoon of December 31, 1950, the 335th Regiment ordered to block the enemy's escape arrived at this hill bag, and the 335th Regiment at this time had been incorporated into the battle sequence of the 112th Division.

Fan Tianen is destined to fight a bad battle on this hill.

At the beginning of the second campaign, the 335th Regiment was still carrying out the task of "luring the enemy into depth", and the officers and men of this regiment, under the leadership of Fan Tianen, carried out a stubborn resistance to the northward advancing United Nations troops at Feihu Mountain, and then they fought and retreated, and when the main force of the army had already begun to attack Tokugawa, the 335th Regiment was still blocking a group of American troops advancing north at Huaping Station, which was more than 100 kilometers away from Tokugawa.

That night, Fan Tianen received a new order, and the order was only one sentence: to attack the enemy in front of him. At this time, the radio station that contacted the division was broken, and Fan Tianen immediately looked for the way forward on the map and decided to hit the place called Xinxingli.

At this time, a staff officer of the 40th Army found him and said that he was here to pick up the position of the 335th Regiment, and from the mouth of the commander of the 40th Army, Fan Daen knew that the 38th Army of the Second Battle was fighting Tokugawa, and they had been incorporated into the 38th Army sequence. Fan Tianen felt that with the 40th Army, there would definitely be no real battles, so it was better to chase his new troops.

After the decision, the whole regiment of the 335th Regiment was lightly armed, except for the things necessary for the battle, all the other equipment was hidden in a small ravine, and a squad was assigned to guard it.

Fan Tianen calculated that he could catch up with the 38th Army in two days by walking 60 kilometers in one day.

The 335th Regiment had no guide, relying entirely on a map and a compass, and they began a difficult march over the mountains and mountains in the freezing weather, with only one goal: to catch up with the main force and strive to catch up with the battle.

After walking for two nights, when they arrived at a small mountain village more than a dozen kilometers away from Tokugawa, the officers and men of the whole regiment, including Fan Tianen, could not walk, so Fan Tianen ordered a staff officer to take people to reconnoiter the position of the main force, and at the same time let the troops rest in the village.

When the guards were looking for a place where they could defend their defense, they accidentally caught a dozen South Korean soldiers in a vegetable cellar, and when they asked, it turned out that the battle in Tokugawa was over. Soon, the staff officer who had gone out to reconnoiter came back and said that the main force had advanced towards the Summer Ridge.

Van Tien En immediately ordered the troops to continue the pursuit. In the vicinity of Xia Ri Ling, the 335th Regiment finally caught up with the main force of the army that had just taken Xingri Ling, and Fan Tianen also got a radio station from the US military car lying on the road.

At this time, Jiang Yonghui, the commander of the 1st and 2nd Divisions, was receiving an order from the military headquarters that the 335th Regiment was their troops, so Jiang Yonghui hurriedly ordered them to occupy Songgu Peak immediately. The division commander was suffering from the fact that there were no more troops to mobilize, and when he saw the 335th Regiment coming, Jiang Yonghui exclaimed with great joy: "What a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general!" ”

Due to the late departure time of Ezo, before they arrived, the 335th Regiment encountered a large number of American troops withdrawn from Tokugawa, and the battle was inevitable.

The first troops to flock south to retreat were the US Second Division.

Faced with the American troops on the road, the soldiers of the third company immediately forgot about their hunger and fatigue after several days of marching.

Occupying Songgu Peak was the 3rd Company of the 1st Battalion of the 335th Regiment, and the 8th Squad was at the forefront of the 3rd Company. When the U.S. troops were only 20 meters away from the position of the eighth squad, Yang Wenming, the machine gunner of the eighth squad, opened fire first and immediately hit the first car. As soon as the guns rang out, platoon commander Wang Jinhou (a native of Xiyou Village, Huadian Township, Qihe County, Dezhou City, Shandong Province, and platoon commander of the third company and second platoon of the first battalion of the 335th Regiment of the **** 112th Division of the Chinese People's Volunteers) led five soldiers to rush onto the road, and the rocket launcher shooter approached the tank to shoot at the tank, and the grenades flew towards the car at the same time. At this time, the demolition team of the fifth squad also hit the second tank, and the car and tank blocked the road, and the American soldiers in the car hurriedly turned around and ran back in fright.

Moments later, the U.S. forces organized an attack on Songgu Peak. If they want to live, they must open the pathways of Songgu Peak.

Thus began one of the most tragic battles of the Korean War.

After the battle began, Fan Tianen was worried that the fortifications on the position had not been repaired and the soldiers would suffer heavy casualties, so Fan Dasi had to order the second battalion to support the direction of the first battalion and the third company with machine gun fire to relieve the pressure on the front. Wang Suqi, the commander of the 1st Battalion, was even more anxious about whether the 3rd Company would be able to withstand the enemy on the mountain bag that was close to the road and had no support.

He ordered the first company on the left side of the position and the second company on the right side of the position to be bayonet, ready to fight the American troops rushing to the top at any time.

The U.S. troops who withdrew from Tokugawa were blocking the 38th Army pursuing Tokugawa on the one hand, and on the other hand, they were stubbornly blocked by the 335th Regiment on the retreat route.

Their numbers are too small!

Fan Tianen didn't complain about anything, the task he received was very clear, hold here, don't let go of a single American soldier, today Tokugawa is bound to fight a big victory, this victory is based on whether they can stop these withdrawn American troops!

The aircraft artillery brought by the U.S. military is not for ornamentation, a small hill less than 300 meters high, to say that it is not good, if the shells of Tokugawa Castle were put here halfway, this hill will definitely be blown to the ground, but now the U.S. troops are only concerned about fleeing in panic, and their forces are scattered, some of them are blocking the 38th Army, some of them are waiting to surrender and have no intention of fighting, and some of them are desperately trying to take this place and continue to escape.

Therefore, the artillery fire is much weaker than that of Tokugawa, even if it is much weaker, it is enough to cover this small hill several times back and forth, and the main peak, which can only accommodate a company, immediately ushered in the suppression of the first round of artillery fire, the sea of fire rises on the top of the mountain, a large amount of gunpowder smoke is drifting into the distance, and the soldiers hiding on the top of the mountain are lying in the shallow pit that can only accommodate one person lying flat, the mountain is tense, and the earth and rocks brought up by the exploding cannonballs almost bury their bodies.

After being covered by artillery fire, the American troops still rushed to the position, and the first company and the second company on the right side, which had been preparing for a long time, carried bright bayonets and started hand-to-hand combat with the enemy on the position.

Immediately afterwards they organized a new charge and pressed towards the top of the hill, and in this way, the third company was on the top of the front, and the first and second companies supported on the flank. In the bayonet fight, the casualties of the 1st and 2nd companies were huge.

The strength of the U.S. military to attack the front of Songgu Peak is still increasing exponentially, and a small hill is occupied by the U.S. military, which is pressed by Ukraine, and the situation is becoming more and more severe.
