Chapter 36 Bloodstained Style (8) Individual Bunker and Steel Helmet Rice
"Individual Bunkers" and "Individual Combat Tunnels", which are compulsory courses for an infantry combatant. Sharpshooters Lao Zhu and Lao Wang, they have different opinions in this regard, and they also have different standards of interpretation.
Lao Zhu's "bunker" stood out from the reality, the soil facing the enemy side was very thick, and the place on his own side was only gently shoveled the turf. At first, Guo Kaiqing thought that he might be too focused on observing the enemy and had no time to deal with it, but later Guo Kaiqing wanted to find two soldiers to help him get it, but Lao Zhu refused. Lao Zhu treated Battalion Commander Zhang as a fierce god, but he showed a kind side to the young soldiers, and even the soldiers he had kicked later, he later apologized to him, saying that he was "hating iron but not steel", and he didn't want to see soldiers sacrifice beside him, and everyone could understand such a thing.
Guo Kaiqing didn't understand Lao Zhu's intentions, and stepped forward to interrogate Lao Zhu, why did he have a bunker like this. Lao Zhu smiled and said, "You don't understand this, the front is used for the top bullet, and the back is almost enough, anyway, when you die, there is a tank blocking you, and you will go back to your grandmother's house." ”
Seeing that Lao Zhu didn't have much to explain, Guo Kaiqing had no choice but to walk away.
On the contrary to Lao Zhu, Lao Wang's "bunker" is decent, and his "cultivation soil" in front of him is not only far and thick, but also "deep and excellent" where he lies on his stomach in the back, which is simply a model of tactical subjects. The soldier next to him who pressed the bullet suffered a lot, and in his free time when he wiped the gun and pressed the bullet, he would dig out a "single bunker" according to Lao Wang's requirements. Seeing that he was tired, Lao Wang asked him to change someone and then dig, and after several hours of substitution and digging, Lao Wang's "battle bunker" had begun to take shape. Coupled with the secondary mulching of the turf dug up, a small "hill" is revealed.
Lao Wang's "single soldier bunker" was not used by him alone, Battalion Commander Zhang, Zhang Wenzhi, Guo Kaiqing, plus the soldiers who came and went, all came to observe Lao Wang's engineering achievements. While the soldiers of Country Y charged, they also saw that there were so many "things" on Lao Wang's side. Looking at the "small hills" type of dirt bags. They felt that Guo Kaiqing and his group were still alive, and at least there were more than 20 formed "bunkers".
The enemy took advantage of the night to come up again, and that night was the fifteenth, when the full moon was at the head, in order to strengthen the guards of the front line, Zhang Battalion Commander, Zhang Wenzhi and Guo Kaiqing all joined the battle, they expected that this was the enemy's last charge.
Although Battalion Commander Zhang had an opinion on the two sharpshooters, he still admired them so much. Now he is also learning from Lao Wang. I also dug a "bunker" for myself. But not long after the digging was completed, the old king ordered the soldiers to tell him to leave, telling him not to get too close to him, and to run to the highest point of the hill to guard him. Camp Commander Zhang had no choice but to walk away stupidly.
Zhang Wenzhi is the son of the head of the Ministry of Security, and the head who calls him "that who" is his father. At work, the chief's requirements for his son are quite strict, even a few people around the chief. There are people who don't know Zhang Wenzhi's identity as the "prince". So when the chief's old subordinate, Master Zheng, heard Zhang Wenzhi's voice, he dispelled the idea that he was the enemy, because this Zhang Gongzi was too good. At the age of less than thirty, he is already a distinguished soldier.
Zhang Wenzhi lowered his body and came to Lao Zhu's side, Lao Zhu did not stop him from helping, but used his fingers to compare his own defense range, and asked Zhang Wenzhi and himself to jointly defend.
Guo Kaiqing's shooting level is average, which is far inferior to his ability to capture and fight, he saw that Lao Wang drove away Battalion Commander Zhang, and did not dare to step forward to Lao Wang's side, he found a place closer to Lao Wang, and used a war shovel to dig his own "individual bunker".
Lao Wang's opinion of Guo Kaiqing has always been very good, since he knew the identity of Lao Wang. Every time Guo Kaiqing follows behind Lao Wang, Lao Wang will feel a sense of security, which is obviously inseparable from Guo Kaiqing's title of "Battle Hero", he is not as domineering as Battalion Commander Zhang, giving people a feeling of being very modest, young people are like this, of course middle-aged people have to take care of their juniors.
Lao Wang waved his hand to Guo Kaiqing, who was digging, meaning to let him pass, Guo Kaiqing bowed down and walked to Lao Wang's side in understanding.
Lao Wang pointed to Guo Kaiqing and pointed to the place he was responsible for, "The angle of this land is not big, you first help me look at the hillside path, it is too dark, sometimes my eyes are not enough, as long as someone goes to that place, you will shoot, do you hear it, if the enemy does not come up, you will be responsible for pressing the bullet and wiping the gun." ”
Guo Kaiqing happily accepted the task, he also thought that Lao Wang looked up to himself very much, and it was obvious that his title of "combat hero" was simply not worth mentioning compared to Lao Wang. To be able to learn something from his predecessors, he is really fortunate to have three lives.
The enemy was assembled at the foot of the hill, and although their figures could be seen in the night, it was obviously too far away according to the distance of the shot. Dare not say that no sharpshooter can shoot at such a distance, and besides, the people on the hillside have a lot of bullets, and if they fight too much, they may not be able to withstand the arrival of reinforcements, and they will see the enemy coming.
Division Commander Zheng was not idle, he organized the soldiers to prepare food, and at the same time, he observed the enemy's movements at the foot of the mountain through the cover of stones. Now several of his officers are in various combat positions, and he is like a "logistics minister", who can only take care of cooking.
Division Commander Zheng looked at the foot of the mountain again, and saw that the assembled soldiers of Country Y still had no intention of stepping forward to charge, so he walked back to the hidden department, wanting to see how everyone's dinner was going.
Master Zheng and his entourage have missed two meals on the hillside, both of which are spent by gnawing on compressed biscuits, that is, Lao Zhu and Lao Wang ate two bottles of "Merlin brand" luncheon meat, and when Master Zheng just wanted to eat luncheon meat, he thought of the soldiers, so he had to break the canned food that he ate and put it on the stone.
There is no water source on the hillside, fortunately, all the soldiers have water bottles on their backs, under the guidance of Commander Zheng, the soldiers picked up some dry firewood, and set up a "steel helmet" in the concealment department, this thing is very good, although there is a smell of gun oil, but after wiping it with grass, it exudes a fragrance. The rice was in the rice bags of the soldiers, and these people set out with three days' rations, although the rice was not washed and directly put into the pot, but after being cooked with dry firewood, there was still a burst of rice aroma.
The green smoke of cooking in the "hidden department" was seen by the soldiers of country Y at the foot of the mountain, and they launched the first attack of the night on the hillside, which was obviously not many in number and was tentative. The reason is that they suffered a big loss during the day, and many people let Lao Wang and Lao Zhu "snipe" when they had not rushed to the middle of the hillside, and now they just want to overwork these two sharpshooters with fatigue tactics, so that they can attack the hillside when they are careless.
Since it was night, it was impossible to see as much as it did during the day. Lao Zhu and Lao Wang's guns were fired very late, and they usually fired only after they saw the enemy. Seeing that the marksman's marksmanship was still as accurate as during the day, the soldiers of Nation Y retreated from the first wave of attacks. However, they were not disbanded on the spot, and were still assembling in the "combat starting position".
The first pot of "steel helmet rice" came out, and Master Zheng took two soldiers and came to Lao Wang with a low body. made Lao Wang want to stand up, but he still didn't want to stand up, so he was helpless.
Master Zheng saw his difficulties and smiled. "Lao Wang, this politeness is exempt, you have some food first. Tell Xiao Guo to watch it for a while, and then you can replace him later. ”
For a whole afternoon, Lao Wang was lying on his stomach in one position, even if he changed places to move, but his stomach was still not very comfortable, plus he ate two meals of compressed biscuits, and he didn't dare to drink more water, so he was uncomfortable lying on his stomach.
Lao Wang didn't care about Master Zheng and them, sat in the "bunker", held fragrant rice, poured a can of "black bean sauce dace", mixed it up, and ate it.
Master Zheng came to Lao Zhu's side again, and still asked Zhang Wenzhi to be in charge of guarding first and letting Lao Zhu eat. Lao Zhu is very picky, he eats canned food and only eats luncheon meat, so Master Zheng brought him the can he ate in the afternoon. Seeing Lao Zhu gobbling up, Master Zheng sighed.
"Lao Zhu, I didn't expect you to be alive, and now you are still affected by me, you are angry here, you should stand by the chief's side with a greasy face, it seems that I have hurt you again."
"Oh, what you said, I was able to save you from Lu twenty years ago, and this time I can, just with these few devils of country Y, Lao Wang and I can do it, I have wanted to die on the battlefield since the first day I was a soldier, which is far better than being by the chief's side."
Tears flashed in Commander Zheng's eyes, and he did not shed in front of Lao Zhu, but left with the soldiers on his own.
Just after Lao Zhu and Lao Wang had eaten, the enemy attacked again, this time they were stragglers, and it was impossible to see which combat group was going to hit the middle of the hillside, these people kept shooting at the "hilly bunkers", Guo Kaiqing held the "steel helmet rice" in one hand, and ate it with the "chopsticks" that had been sharpened with a tree branch in the other. His head was facing away from the "bunker", but he could see the bullets blowing past his ears and hitting the trees on the hillside, and he ate as he counted the "bullet holes" that the bullets from the trees had hit.
Lao Wang and Lao Zhu still fired a shot to change the firing position, and because there were not many bullets, they had to let the enemy shoot a large number of shots. However, they have a bottom line, that is, the enemy should not rush over the mountainside, as long as the enemy goes up the mountainside, he will have to fight one and fight another. If they didn't rush up the mountainside, they watched them silently and rarely fired their guns.
The soldiers in the "Hidden Department" have all eaten enough, and some of them are still laughing funny, they did not go out to guard the activities, which was all arranged by Master Zheng. After the soldiers were all eaten, Commander Zheng told everyone the story of his battle twenty years ago, when he was still a company commander, in a battle to let more than three times his enemies besiege, the situation is similar to now, the most reluctant is Lao Zhu They brought someone to rescue them, that will be Lao Zhu is a sharpshooter, I heard that he was also wounded in this battle, after the battle Commander Zheng did not find him, some people say that he has died.
After listening to Commander Zheng's account, the soldiers were firm in their confidence, so Commander Zheng led everyone out of the "hidden department" and lay down on the other side of the hill in an upright position.
As expected by Division Commander Zheng, all the soldiers were on alert according to the leader's arrangement. At this moment, there was a noise behind a large rock. One of the warriors went to watch, and before he could speak, he fell. It turned out that a climber from country Y had quietly come up, and he was using a big stone to tie the rope, and he had already thrown the other end of the rope down.
The enemy must have been a master, and the soldier who went to reconnoiter made him "cut his throat" without saying a word, and another soldier stepped forward and stabbed the enemy with his own spear. As a result, the soldier of country Y evaded his assassination and used a dagger to "cut the throat" of the soldier again.
Two soldiers had already been sacrificed, and Division Commander Zheng also found that this place was wrong, just as he was about to shoot at the enemy with his pistol, a squad leader of the guard platoon pounced directly on the enemy of country Y, and before the man could react, they fell down the hillside together.
The squad leader killed the enemy with his own body, and the other fighters ran to the big rock, and cut the rope tied to the stone with their spears, and heard several wails, as if the enemy had climbed halfway along the rope, and the rope broke, and they fell.
Division Commander Zheng ordered the bodies of the two sacrificed soldiers to be carried into the "Concealment Department" and gave them a "hat salute". The other fighters were also divided into two shifts, one for the rear guard, and the other for temporary rest. (To be continued......)
