Chapter 135: Latent

After having hope, Jiang Yitao seems to have changed into a different person and regained his fighting spirit. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The supplies I brought with me included a small bucket of water, a dozen bags of compressed biscuits, and a few large white radish.

I fed Jiang Yitao and Bai Fan some water, soaked the compressed biscuits with water, then heated and boiled, let them cool, and fed them both.

"Be careful to save a little water, it's hard to replenish here"

Jiang Yitao saw my extravagant use of water, and hurriedly reminded.

I don't care, there are so many ways to find water.

As if to see my thoughts, Jiang Yitao said: "First of all, there is no spring water in the cave, and the snow on the ground has been evaporated by artillery fire, and we can't find water ourselves."

I nodded based on what I saw, there was really no water in this tunnel. But we can't get it from anyone else.

But Jiang Yitao's next words blocked me.

"Don't think about looking for it in the enemy's kettle, they are now going out without water and food"

I frowned, the enemy is preparing to starve the people in the volunteer tunnels to death, thirsty rhythm.

"Don't worry, the comrades-in-arms in the back will bring us supplies," I comforted him, feeling that Jiang Yitao was always a little pessimistic.

"Hehe, we are facing the enemy here, and there is a lot of loss in transporting materials, and the casualties are large, and the gains outweigh the losses. And most importantly, the superiors didn't know we were alive! Jiang Yitao smiled bitterly.

"Why? The superiors are very concerned about your No. 1 tunnel! I said puzzled.

"We are only an exit from the No. 1 tunnel, and the tunnel behind it was dug up and blown up by the enemy, and the comrades-in-arms in the No. 1 tunnel probably thought that we had already died in the explosion."

Jiang Yitao's words made me understand the next situation, what a stake!

Jiang Yitao was a little tired after talking too much, lying down and preparing to rest, I was not going to continue to disturb him, got up and left with a cigarette, Jiang Yitao suddenly stopped me again.

Looking into my questioning eyes, he said, "I forgot to remind you that the enemy originally thought that we were dead, so they didn't do anything to us. But after tomorrow, the enemy will definitely send more men to target us, and at the same time resume the attack on our tunnels! ”

My face is even more ugly, which means that if I want to make a move, then now the dawn of the road is my last chance!

I exchanged a few words with Mao Qiang, and then in his concern I sneaked to the enemy's side.

The darkest before dawn is true, and the darkness of the night, when I can't see my fingers, gives me the best cover.

I propped up the ground with my hands and crawled like a lizard, avoiding the clutter of empty cans on the ground and the more dangerous warning mines.

may have been attacked by the Volunteer Army, and the coalition soldiers on the front line are very vigilant, even if they keep dozing, few people really sleep peacefully.

I felt less than three meters from the forward position of the coalition forces, and I could hear the enemy's conversation and the sound of his feet stomping very clearly.

I found a discarded boot, removed the laces, tried it with my hands, and it was very sturdy.

I crawled along the coalition frontline positions, looking for what the enemy had discarded but could use.

I took such a big risk, of course, not to pick up the junk, and after a few minutes of climbing, I found a target.

This soldier had his back to me, sleeping soundly against his cover, and the soldiers around him were ten meters away from his position, and he was a perfect prey!

I carefully wrapped my shoelaces around his neck, and then leaned back so hard that the laces went straight into his flesh, and the enemy went to God without making a sound.

I carefully dragged away the enemy's still warm corpse, pulled out his clothes and changed them, and examined his weapon.

This is a Lee Enfield Type 4 rifle (Lee's rifle), which is just right for my next move.

When I withdrew from the coalition positions, I again discovered some mines that the coalition forces were using to guard against me. I used the mines to move them, for example, to make a couple of trip mines out of captured grenades.

By the time I was done, it was almost dawn, and I found a sniper position to hide.

This sniper position is not easy to find, first of all, to avoid the main range of long-range fire attacks from both sides, and secondly, not to block the line where the infantry may charge. Finally, you must be hidden, because snipers are very hated! (See How to Treat Timo)

The body of the Lee rifle is relatively short, making it easy to hide. The magazine it uses can be loaded in two rows, which ensures the continuity of firepower to a certain extent.

The Lee rifle also had a good score, and its rate of fire was the fastest among the rear pull bolt rifles of the same period!

Just after six o'clock in the morning, the smell of coffee, milk, and canned food wafted from the direction of the coalition forces. I sniffed intoxicated, then stuffed myself with a packet of compressed biscuits.

The biscuits are too dry, but fortunately, the snow has not yet melted on the side of the coalition position, so there is no need to worry about choking.

It wasn't until after eight o'clock in the morning that the dragged coalition forces finally hit the road.

As is customary, sappers began to dismantle grenades. Once it is safe to do so, the infantry behind will start charging.

"Boom!"

The sudden explosion alarmed the soldiers on both sides, and one of the coalition sappers did not pay attention and stepped on a mine that they had laid themselves.

There may be two of them, but the order to attack has been given, so they have to choose to use grenades to blow up a path.

"Woo~" "Boom! ”

Coalition artillery and aircraft again cleared the heights of the Volunteer Army. So far, the lowest level of the coalition soldiers have understood that such a seemingly violent artillery bombardment has actually caused little damage to the volunteers.

It's like buying a lottery ticket, knowing that you won't win the jackpot, but you have some psychological comfort.

After the artillery fire, the coalition soldiers began to attack!

The soldiers of the No. 1 pit of the Volunteer Army quickly ran out of the pit and entered the ground position.

Jiang Yitao had no position to defend outside the tunnel, so they only dragged out a machine gun and prepared to strike the enemy at the mouth of the tunnel.

The ammunition of the volunteers was obviously running low, the rain of bullets that blocked the attack was not violent, and soon the enemy occupied the heights again.

After inflicting some casualties on the enemy, the volunteer soldiers retreated back to the tunnel again.

After this battle was brought down, the tactics of the Volunteer Army have changed, from the previous vow to die to the maximum killing and wounding of the enemy's living force.

Turn the entire Shangganling into a flesh and blood grinding plate, grinding the coalition army to death little by little.

The coalition forces have long seen the idea of the volunteers, but even if they see it, there is no other way, because the coalition forces have already ridden the tiger.

After occupying the ground positions on the high ground, the coalition forces began to fight the tunnels again. Fire, smoke, blast...... All they could think of.

I'm very relieved about Tunnel 1 because it's more functional and deep enough.

And I'm very worried about Jiang Yitao, as long as a flame thrower, as soon as it fires after getting close, the entire pit will be finished! (To be continued.) )
