Chapter 38 Bloodstained Style (10) A battle without victory or defeat

As long as it is linked to human life, all material and spiritual wealth is not so important, the defense of the hillside is responsible for five excellent officers, I saw that they cooperate very tacitly, the position on the mountainside in the distance has Lao Zhu and Lao Wang two sharpshooters responsible for defense, and a little further up is the shooting range of Guo Kaiqing and Zhang Wenzhi, and the most rear, of course, is Master Zheng. This middle-aged soldier in his forties has now regained the style and bravery of his youth, probably because he has sat too much in the car, the falling flesh on his stomach is slightly more, and it is very uncomfortable to lie in the "bunker", and after a while he has to shake his body, or change a shooting position, but his attention is still very concentrated, in short, the time is already eleven o'clock in the evening, and these people are not the slightest sleepy.

Under the command of the officers of country Y, the enemy changed different tactics, but their attack still did not work, and there was no very good way to carry it out, but they did not give up, and still ordered their men to charge, and the enemy who rushed up was just to attract our bullets, as soon as the gun rang out, they would immediately lie down, and then retreat back in the form of a low prostrate. This trick is also good, even if there are sharpshooters like Lao Zhu and Lao Wang, they have also fired a lot of empty guns, the reason is that people are simply here to "borrow arrows from grass boats".

Battalion Commander Zhang's side had given up the idea of attacking from behind through his method of throwing large rocks every few minutes, coupled with the shouting and chatting of these people. Seeing that it was late at night, Battalion Commander Zhang asked the soldiers to rest in two shifts, but he replaced the three men guarding the front line with five, on the grounds that it was enough for three of the five people not to be confused, and they would have to keep throwing stones down, in order to scare off the enemy and make the enemy have no other ideas.

Unknowingly, at two o'clock in the morning, the people of Y were still playing his little trick, so that Guo Kaiqing and they didn't dare to relax. Lao Zhu and Lao Wang felt that the enemy's goal had really been achieved, and maybe they would not be able to withstand Tianming, and their general attack would be coming.

Suddenly, a thunderous roar sounded in the distance, followed by dust, and Master Zheng was very familiar with this sound, and then he shouted, if it weren't for the fear that the enemy would shoot at him, he would really jump up.

"This is our tank, it must be here to rescue us." Master Zheng is like a lost child. Screaming and laughing.

Guo Kaiqing and Zhang Wenzhi also saw the tanks from behind the dust, there were dozens of them, but the direction they were heading was not here on the hillside, but on the road far from here.

The soldiers of country Y at the bottom of the hill also seemed to have spotted the tank, and they did not organize their personnel to attack the hillside, but returned to the first line of "combat starting position".

The tanks drove on the road one by one, and the distance between them was like measuring the good with a ruler, so orderly, these tanks did not turn on the headlights. However, judging from the direction they were coming, it could be judged that this must be a Chinese-Chinese tank force.

"Radio soldier, use the radio to get in touch."

The radio soldier was not in the "hidden department", and he also wanted to come out to breathe. So he has been lying by Master Zheng's side.

But no matter how the radio soldiers called, the tanks and the "superior" they contacted did not reply at all, and they saw that the tank troops were about to drive away. Master Zheng was in a hurry. I saw that he raised his head to the sky and opened fire, a full magazine of bullets, but did not bring the effect of ding. The tank units were gone.

Division Commander Zheng was desperate, and the radio soldiers were also desperate, his radio station at this time was not good, although he could hear the sound of "tick tick", but he couldn't send a little distress message to them, maybe the radio station was broken.

After a while, I saw two people running down the hill to the "first battle starting position" in country Y, one of them shouted to Lu Shang in fluent Chinese, it was late at night, his voice was far away, and his speed of speech was also very slow, maybe it was to make the people on the hillside hear more clearly.

"Is the head of the Chinese army on the mountain here, I am the commander of the Y army, we admire your tactical ability and strong fighting style, but you have no way to retreat, our mortars have been transported to the bottom of the mountain, what will be the consequences after that, you must be able to judge, you have a saying in China, that is, a hero does not suffer immediate losses, you still take the initiative to surrender, don't have any hope."

Division Commander Zheng and the other five officers listened to the opponent's shout, but none of them reacted at all.

"Well, we'll give you another ten minutes to think about it, and if you don't surrender, we'll attack at once." After speaking, the two shouting men lowered their bodies from their "first combat starting position" and ran back.

Senior Commander Zheng felt that the matter was important, "Let's discuss it, Wenzhi, Xiao Guo, you and I will go back to the hidden department." ”

Hearing the chief's order, both of them withdrew their guns and returned, but Lao Zhu and Lao Wang still held on.

Division Commander Zheng also called the radio soldiers back to Battalion Commander Zhang, and the four officers had a combat meeting in the "Concealment Department."

"Let's talk about it, what do you think?"

"Break through, division commander, I'm optimistic, the steep edge behind the hill is not high, if we pick up the backpack belt, we can climb down, maybe there is a way to survive."

Guo Kaiqing and Zhang Wenzhi had no idea, because it was the first time they had encountered this matter, and Senior Commander Zheng saw that everyone had no other opinions, "Okay, Camp Commander Zhang, you let two people go down to explore the way first, if it is feasible, we will follow your method." ”

Battalion Commander Zhang immediately ran to the back slope, connected more than a dozen backpack belts, felt very strong, and then let two veterans go down the rope, did not wait for more than ten seconds, the gunfire under the mountain rang out, suddenly heard "plop" and "plop" two sounds, there was no movement, Camp Commander Zhang shouted the names of the two on it, did not get a trace of response. Battalion Commander Zhang had no choice but to run back to the "Concealment Department" and report to Commander Zheng.

"It seems that it is impossible to break through from behind, so I have to move forward."

After speaking, Master Zheng was the first to walk out of the "Hidden Department." He fell back to his original position, and he didn't say a word.

Guo Kaiqing and Zhang Wenzhi also returned to the front line one after the other, and after seeing Master Zheng, they also came to Lao Zhu and Lao Wang's side, Guo Kaiqing didn't say anything, he was still thinking about the two soldiers who sacrificed in vain.

Lao Wang saw Zhang Wenzhi lying beside him, "How did you discuss, do you stick to it or break through?" ”

"Just now, Battalion Commander Zhang asked the two soldiers to go down from behind. Halfway down the road, we sacrificed, so we came back again. ”

"Breaking through from the front is to use the enemy as a target, how we used to hit people, how people will beat us, before we rush to the bottom of the mountain, we have to be mixed eyes, it seems, wait to be bombed."

"Why don't we dig an anti-artillery hole first", Guo Kaiqing seemed to think of something.

"Don't waste it. They only gave us ten minutes, and now it's all over, and I doubt that they didn't transfer the artillery, so why didn't they fight. Lao Zhu obviously thought that Guo Kaiqing was talking nonsense.

"Also, don't waste your efforts, this hole can't be dug well for a while, and as soon as the enemy's shells explode, the infantry will come up immediately, and it won't be enough to have a hole."

At this time. A mortar shell exploded not far from Guo Kaiqing, Guo Kaiqing's reaction was quite sensitive, and he immediately stuck his head into the soil in front of the "bunker", although it was blocked by a steel helmet. But he still ate a lot of dirt in his mouth.

Seeing that the enemy had attacked, Division Commander Zheng simply stood up, "Comrades, the time has come for the party to test us. There are no chiefs and subordinates here, as long as one person is alive, one enemy must be dragged to death. ”

Lao Zhu and Lao Wang also stood up. But they were all half-standing, and they seemed to understand what Master Zheng said.

Guo Kaiqing's head was still stuck in the soil, and he didn't react.

Then one mortar after another shells hit this small hillside, and several officers at the front kept rolling on the ground, and now they had no strategy or tactics, as long as the landing point of the next shell was not on their side, it was equivalent to judging correctly.

Zhang Wenzhi ran very fast, he ran into the "hidden department" as soon as possible, and he thought that it was the safest place, because it was behind the front line, and the enemy would not strike there first.

Master Zheng and Guo Kaiqing seemed to understand something, and they also ran into the "Hidden Department." ”

However, Lao Zhu and Lao Wang were still holding the front line, although they kept changing their firing positions and dodging the shells, but they finally knew what their mission was, they were here to rescue the chief, as Master Zheng, he could run to the rear, but they couldn't run, so the enemy would come up effortlessly. They were like two headless flies, jumping up and down on the point of one shell after another, and the shrapnel of the shell slashed their faces, and they were all bleeding, but fortunately they were protected by steel helmets, and the injuries were not very serious.

After a while, the sound of artillery finally stopped, and Lao Wang and Lao Zhu found that the enemy had rushed up the mountainside under the cover of artillery fire, and was about to arrive in front of them. At this moment, Battalion Commander Zhang came running from the direction of the back hillside, and also rushed back to the front of the hillside with all the soldiers, and they also opened fire on the enemy who rushed up.

Because Lao Wang and Lao Zhu were shooting at the same time, their bodies were also squatting, so the enemy's key shooting had just come towards Battalion Commander Zhang and a large wave of them, and one by one the soldiers fell, and Battalion Commander Zhang seemed to have been shot, but he was still kneeling on the ground and shooting.

Division Commander Zheng and Guo Kaiqing also heard the sound of the enemy coming up, and they all rushed out of the "hidden department" and started the most difficult "fight" with the enemy.

It was so sudden, I saw the sound of tank cannons not far away, and four or five tanks drove from a distance, and they were firing at the enemy of country Y while driving, and the soldiers in the machine gun position kept shooting.

"Comrades, reinforcements are coming, rush, knock the enemy down." Division Commander Zheng took the lead, holding a submachine gun, and viciously rushed towards the front line.

A stray bullet hit Commander Zheng's left shoulder, but he still did not stop, and when the enemy saw our tanks coming, they retreated to the mountainside, while the cadres and soldiers of our army lay down on the hillside and fired at the enemy on the mountainside.

Originally, the total number of enemies in country Y was not large, and when their officers found out that our tanks were attacking them, they had no intention of fighting, and commanded their subordinates to run to the woods, and they retreated.

Seeing that the enemy had already left, and the people on the hillside had stopped shooting, Zhang Wenzhi took out a medical kit and gave a simple treatment to Division Commander Zheng and Battalion Commander Zhang, fortunately, they were all "penetrating wounds", the bullets did not stay in the body, and there was no major problem if the bleeding stopped, which may also be related to the distance between them and the enemy in close combat. If you are far away, it is impossible for the bullet to pass through the body.

At this time, a man ran from the tank down the hill, and he shouted down the hill, "Hey, which unit are you from?" ”

Guo Kaiqing replied loudly, "Our division commander is here, let the cadres you lead come up." ”

When the soldier heard that the division commander was above, he didn't dare to slack off, so he went back to report.

The head of four or five tanks on the car. A young officer, who looked to be twenty-five or sixteen years old, ran up the hill and gave a military salute to Commander Zheng.

"Report to the chief, I am from a certain tank regiment, and I am the commander of the second company."

"Xie Lu, thank you, Battalion Commander Zhang, count the sacrificed comrades and carry them to the tank. Let's go, let's go down. ”

In this battle, only four of the dozen or so soldiers of Battalion Commander Zhang survived, and Division Commander Zheng also carried a sacrificed soldier. He ignored the gunshot wound on his body and thought silently as he walked.

Fortunately, there was enough space for four or five tanks, so everyone carried the remains of their comrades inside. Then they all got into the tank.

Guo Kaiqing was in the first car, and Zhang Wenzhi and the company commander of the tank company were in the same car with him. The company commander kept boasting about how powerful his tank was, Guo Kaiqing was like a primary school student, listening very carefully, and the company commander at the end of the year talked about what they had come back for.

"We received the task of our superiors to assemble at the designated place, and then we heard the sound of artillery here, and our regiment commander asked us to come here to see if the friendly troops were attacked, but I didn't expect to really save you."

"Xie Lu, thank you, company commander, if it weren't for you, we might not exist." Guo Kaiqing sincerely thanked.

"That's not it, the political commissar originally said that he wouldn't let him come, if it wasn't for our regiment commander who kept asking for it, we would have driven over, now we can be regarded as a great merit, and we also saved your division commander."

Zhang Wenzhi on the side looked down on this boastful company commander from the moment he entered the tank, but he still expressed restraint, after all, these people saved their lives.

"That's, that's." Zhang Wenzhi also had no choice but to agree.

After crossing the border, Division Commander Zheng and Battalion Commander Zhang were admitted to the field hospital, while Guo Kaiqing, Zhang Wenzhi, Lao Wang, and Lao Zhu returned to the garrison area and told the chief about their affairs.

"Xiao Guozi, how is it, the task is completed, what do you think, what are the requirements to mention."

"Chief, I want to go to military school, I want to study tanks, it's too important in the current war."

"Okay, who is it, what about you?" The chief turned his head to Zhang Wenzhi again.

"Report chief, my name is Zhang Wenzhi, I am your son, don't call that who."

"Okay, Staff Officer Zhang Wenzhi, what do you want to do?"

"I want to go to the front, and my dream is to be a grassroots commander."

"Don't go to the front line, you can also go to the military academy with Xiao Guo, and go to learn tanks."

"Report chief, if I go to school, what if I graduate and the war is over, I can go to school after school, I am now asking to go to the front line."

"I don't want to give you a face, tell Lao Tzu to cut you in front of others, obey the order, get out."

"Yes." Zhang Wenzhi gave his father a military salute and stepped back.

Guo Kaiqing on the side was a little funny, "Chief, I don't go to school anymore, and I also ask to go to the front line, just like Staff Officer Zhang said, you can go to school after studying, but war is not always there." ”

The chief thought for a while, "Okay, you go back and wait for the news first, come here, help Xiao Guo arrange it." ”

As soon as the words fell, a young officer walked in from outside, he led Guo Kaiqing outside, got into a military jeep, and drove into the distance. (To be continued......)
