Chapter 47 War is Cruel

"Get up! Get it all up for me! I yelled viciously at the broken recruits: "All of them, strengthen the fortifications now!" ”

However, at this time, the recruits can be said to be almost collapsed, some of them cry and some vomit, and some even hide in the cat's ear hole with their heads in their hands, like ostriches, saying nothing.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but lean in...... Didn't you look majestic when you first came up? How did it become like this now!

After shouting a few times, when the recruits still didn't move, I pulled the trigger into the sky and fired two shots: "I repeat, build fortifications, and those who don't obey orders will be punished for disobedience!" ”

Disobedience...... Although these recruits had never fought, they also knew what the result was, so they took out their sapper shovels and began to build fortifications.

Some might say...... Although this Wang Jianfu has been injured and carried down, they still have a company commander, when will they wait for me, the platoon commander, to give an order!

But if you want to talk about a company commander...... He's almost a fucking virtue, and I don't know if he's afraid of death or because he sacrificed many of his subordinates, at this time, he only knows that his expression is wooden and keeps reading: "War is cruel, war is really cruel, war is really cruel......"

At this time, I realized that war is cruel, but I am afraid that it is too late!

I kicked him to the ground and shouted, "Count the casualties for me at once, send the wounded down!" ”

The first company commander came to his senses after being kicked by me, and looked at me in a daze for a while before he got up and answered: "Yes!" ”

Some might say...... Am I being too rough with these recruits?

Roughness is indeed ...... But it was absolutely necessary at the time.

Be aware of the situation. It's that the recruits are almost stunned...... If you are still kind enough to persuade them at this time. Tell them to be brave and strong...... That's bullshit. Will the stupid people listen to this? At this time, there is only one way to get them moving, and that is to be rough and savage...... This is similar to fighting poison with poison, using another kind of fear to make them forget the horror just now.

Besides...... If I do ideological work one by one, even if I think time will not allow it!

To know what is the task of the more devils in front of us...... They want to break through the depth of our army's defense with superior forces, and then cooperate with other troops to compress our army's entire front and expand the results of the battle.

Therefore, on our side, the focus of the Vietnamese army is to be fast and ruthless, otherwise if it takes a day or two to fight, their entire Jihua will be aborted when our reinforcements come up.

Therefore. I believe that the attacks of the more devils will come in waves, and one wave will be more fierce than one wave.

Sure enough, before we could count the casualties, there was another whistling of shells in the sky......

"Boom...... We had just come to hide in the cat's ear hole when there was a sound of explosions outside.

I clearly felt that the Vietnamese bombardment was more intensive and wider...... There is no doubt that these shells were fired by mortars, for the simple reason that long-range artillery fire could not hit the anti-slope in which we were located, and long-range artillery fire was more powerful.

What does this mean? Illustrating the gathering of more and more Vietnamese infantry opposite us, and their mortars completely crushing the mortars of our army.

I found out later...... The strength of the entire division of the 5th Vietnamese Infantry Division in front of us, and the Vietnamese army in order to allow this division to quickly open a hole in our defense line. Six mortar companies and a howitzer regiment were specially redeployed from other units to reinforce the unit.

All right...... A mortar company with twelve mortars, six mortar companies plus an artillery regiment plus infantry originally carried some mortars...... In other words, we have hundreds of enemy artillery pieces in front of us. And what about my regiment? There were only three mortar batteries. Long-range artillery will also be dispersed along the entire front with a total length of about 500 kilometers......

Therefore, although our artillery is much stronger than the Vietnamese army on the whole, we are much worse than the Vietnamese army in our local area.

This may also be a strategy of the Vietnamese army...... It should be said that this strategy is quite wise, anyway, the artillery is inferior to the PLA, if it is dispersed again, it will definitely be pressed by the PLA, it is better to concentrate these artillery pieces and gain an advantage in a certain area to suppress the PLA...... This is actually a local breakthrough with concentrated firepower.

Just like now, the mortar of the Yue Devil is bombing all the way to our 419 heights, all the way to the 393 heights, and all the way to the possible artillery positions of our army in depth.

I hid in the cat's ear hole and shivered...... This shivering is not because of fear, but because the cat's ear hole is full of cold dirty water, and when you are nervous, you will naturally tremble.

I trembled and thought: This Yue devil really has two hands, looking at them smashing shells like this, it seems that there is no shortage of shells at all...... You must know that these shells still have to be transported from the other side of the mountain, how can they manage to transport so many shells in more than a month......

I'm afraid that this is the liliang of the national mobilization...... Although it is a strategic mistake for the devil to do this, it is for us to suffer more. If I could, I'd rather wake up the Yue devils and tell them not to make this mistake, so that at least we don't have to be pressed here by them to worry about being afraid!

As for what national strategy it is...... Our lives are almost gone, and we don't care what the fuck is the national strategy!

It's just that the reality is often cruel, and this kind of thinking is just because of the resentment in the heart of living in this inhuman environment, so I am obscene in my heart.

"Didi, Di, Di, ......," at this time, three long and one short whistles on the hilltop position told me that the enemy was coming.

I couldn't help but curse in my heart: "Fuck the devil, now start playing this set of attacking while firing guns!" ”

But there seems to be nothing we can do...... The mortars of the Vietnamese devils are still bombing at our slope.

It should be said that the mortars of the Yue devils hit very accurately, and the explosion points all fell on the anti-slope plane...... Although it did not blow up in our trenches, it formed a barrage between us and the hilltop position.

It's obvious...... The Vietnamese army hoped to block our way to the hilltop position with mortars, so as to cover their infantry to successfully capture the commanding heights of the hilltop position.

But there's nothing I can do about it...... With the artillery on one side, I had to abandon the hilltop position.

Do you want to rob the devils?

The more devils can use the cat-and-mouse set...... When we went up they retreated, and then there was a burst of artillery bombardment from the top of the hill, and when we went down they came up again...... In a few times, our forces will be depleted by the coming and going of artillery fire.

Are we just here to die?

Of course not...... Our advantage is that we have the fire support of the 393 heights behind us, and at the same time, the hilltop position is facing our side, and the Vietnamese army has no fortifications to use, and more importantly, ...... When we withdrew from the hilltop position, we secretly planted seven or eight directional mines on it.

Weishenme to bury as many as seven or eight? That's because we are worried that these directional mines are likely to be blown up by a burst of mortar fire from the Viet Naw mortars, and the detonation line will be broken or fly somewhere else. As long as one or two of them are not blown up and can be detonated normally, then there will be more devils who look good.

So I hid in this trench and waited...... Until the sound of mortar bombardment got farther and farther away, and there was still an explosion on the 393 heights left in Zuihou, so I knew that the devil was coming up.

Will there be explosions on the high ground of weishenme393? Obviously, the more devils are eating and practicing and growing wise, last time it was because the firepower on the 393 high ground was too fierce to suppress them, this time of course they will not be so stupid again.

So even if they rushed to the 419 heights this time, the mortar shells still kept blasting towards the 393 heights, and they were incendiary bombs and smoke bombs for a while, only to hit the 393 heights red, like a mountain of flames.

But I wasn't very worried about the casualties of the soldiers on the 393 Heights, because I knew that the heights were damp and muddy everywhere at this time, and it was difficult for the incendiary bombs to have much effect......

It should be said that they have done this quite successfully, because Company Commander Luo's nervous voice soon came from the walkie-talkie: "Second Platoon Commander, our visibility here is too poor, and we can't provide you with fire cover for the time being!" Is it difficult to hold the position? ”

"No difficulty!" I didn't think about it.

In fact...... A lot of the time you have to rely on yourself on the battlefield, for example, now, even if I say that there are difficulties, what is the use? Can you retreat if you have difficulties? There is still a barrage of fire behind this, where can you evacuate?

So the result is the same anyway, just just talk a little fuller.

Then the gunfire soon rang out, and I knew that the Yue devils had set up their guns on the hilltop position...... It's their trenches blocking us with fire!

Some might say...... Why didn't this devil find the directional mine above? This directional thunder has to stand on the ground to knock the steel balls out, right?

This is what the fighters are capable of mine-laying...... There are always some protruding stones or crater slopes on the position, and the soldiers skillfully put their directional mines against these stones, and then paste a layer of mud...... Sometimes a few stones will be put on for camouflage, so it can successfully deceive the Vietnamese army.

Now, it's time for them to do their job. (To be continued......)
