Chapter 82: Tug of War

The war began to slowly evolve into a protracted war, a tug-of-war. Often on a high ground, during the day it is still in the hands of the "United **", but at night it becomes the world of the volunteers, and at dawn the position will change hands again. The two armies competed for the battle and refused to admit defeat to each other.

The accents in the position also changed back and forth with the rise and fall of the sun. The sun rose, and English was spoken in the field. When the sun set, dialects from all corners of China were spoken in the field.

At the negotiation table in Panmunjom, there was also talk about stopping, and there was no concession to each other. The fighting outside the negotiating table was even more tragic, and I remember an old man from Dandong talking about the picture he saw on the overpass when he was a child.

It was late in the evening, and the sun was setting. While playing on the flyover, he saw a train coming from the direction of North Korea in front of him, and the train was loaded with nothing but wagons full of the remains of volunteers.

He was terrified, because the train full of volunteer remains was not intact at all. Some only have one arm left, some have no heads, and some have only half of their bodies left, and their white vertebrae are exposed.

Perhaps the brilliance of life is reflected differently in different time and space. Men must continue to grow and experience in great sorrow and pain, and they must continue to stick to themselves in perseverance.

The rain was pouring down, and the sky was overcast. Company Commander Li has lost count of how many times he has received orders: "To recapture the 371 heights!" ”

The warriors of the second company once again touched the bottom of the mountainside. The hill was so steep that it was almost perpendicular to the horizon. The sky split out lightning bolts, thunder, galloping lightning, and magnificent. The lightning continued to shine, and under the light of the lightning, the resolute eyes of Shi Chen and the two Lian Zhan soldiers were as fearful and respectable as hungry wolves.

There is no vegetation on the hillside that has been bombarded by shells, and there is a bare layer of loess, and I don't know how many corpses are buried under this loess. Many, many corpses of Chinese, Americans, Koreans, and Koreans were buried in the loess, and the souls of the heroes who died in other places had to be buried with the enemy in the end. The fighters dug trenches, and a few shovels could dig up a corpse. There are those of one's own and those of the enemy. Sometimes it's too late to fill sandbags for defense, so they simply pile up corpses as defensive positions.

The rain is getting heavier and heavier, and this kind of weather is very unfavorable for the battle of the fortification. It was originally an attack from below, and it was like a torrential rain, accompanied by a torrent, the mountain was very muddy, and if you stepped on the ground, you would fall into a mud pit, and it was even more difficult to lift your feet, so the troops climbed to the 371 heights with difficulty.

The thunder in the sky was beating louder and louder, as if the sky was beating drums and cheering for the volunteers. Lightning lit up the earth like a flashbang, and the sky darkened again.

"Da Da Da Da~" The enemy's machine qiang symbolically opened a few qiang and then ceased fire. When Shi Chen saw it, he shouted: "Everyone, rush up, the enemy has already finished letting go!" ”

As soon as the words fell, everyone quickened the pace of progress. After so many days of tug-of-war, they even played a "tacit understanding" with the enemy! The enemy knew that without the support of aircraft and artillery fire at night, he would not be able to defeat the volunteers who were good at close combat and night combat and had an extremely strong will to fight without the weapons in their hands alone. Therefore, the enemy generally does not do much resistance, but only symbolically opens a few qiang, indicating that he has resisted, and will withdraw from the position.

And the volunteers also know that during the day, the mechanized advantage of the "United **" will be immediately displayed, and a napalm will end the entire position, so the volunteers will not do useless resistance, and then when the sun comes out, they will symbolically put a few qiang like the "United **", and then withdraw from the position.

Sooner or later, the positions will return to their own hands, this is the consensus of the volunteers and the "United **". Therefore, both sides are trying to minimize unnecessary sacrifices and waste of resources, advance if they can, retreat if they can, and never stick to it. Minimizing casualties seems to have become a consensus on both sides.

Shi Chen and Ji Qiang Ban climbed into the enemy's trenches, and he couldn't remember how many times he had returned to this position. It could be more than thirty, maybe more than forty, but it didn't matter anymore, he knew he would have to withdraw as soon as dawn came.

After the enemy withdrew, he knew that he would return tomorrow. When I left, I didn't even turn off the lights in the Lian Zhan trench, and the soldiers of the machine qiang squad also saved the light and could use it directly. All those who fought this battle became a playhouse.

The fighters of the Jiqiang squad began to search around for food and some daily necessities left by the enemy. After a while, Baochuan carried this thing in his arms, walked up to Shi Chen with a smile and said, "Squad leader, squad leader, guess what I found?" ”

"What did you find?" Shi Chen asked suspiciously.

"Look, squad leader." As he spoke, Bao Chuan pulled out a glass bottle filled with orange-yellow liquid from his bosom. Baochuan said: "Squad leader, do you see it?" I seized! ”

Shi Chen asked happily and suspiciously, "Where did you capture this?" ”

"I found it from the trench next to me, I just rummaged through the cabinets looking for food, but I didn't find it, and I actually found this play! Haha~"

"Come on, show me."

Baochuan handed the bottle of foreign wine to Shi Chen, and Shi Chen looked at the bottle of foreign wine carefully. The outer packaging of this wine is very delicate and beautiful, and there are a lot of foreign characters written on it that I can't understand at all. Shi Chen looked at these foreign texts and shook his head. Turned around and shouted, "Guo Lin! Guo Lin! ”

Guo Lin heard Shi Chen's call and agreed: "Eh! What's the matter with the squad leader? ”

"Come here, what do you see on this wine?"

Guo Lin walked over and took the foreign wine in the squad leader's hand. He also took a closer look and said, "This wine says whisky, which translates to whiskey." ”

Shi Chen looked at Guo Lin and said, "This game shouldn't be poisonous, right?" Or maybe it's not wine at all, maybe it's the enemy's urine? ”

Guo Lin opened the cap of the bottle and sniffed it with his nose. The smell of ethanol brewed from barley grains wafted out, and Guo Lin simply took a sip. Shi Chen jumped down when he saw it, and hurriedly shouted: "Guo Lin! ”

After Guo Lin finished drinking, after pursing his lips, he said to Shi Chen: "Squad leader, don't worry." It's wine, it's really wine! It's American whiskey! ”

Everyone got excited when they heard that it was wine. Because of these battles, sometimes I can't even eat my stomach, let alone alcohol, and even if I have alcohol, I will hand it over to the medical team for anti-poisoning. Now there is a bottle of wine in my hand, which really makes everyone very happy.

Shi Chen took a sip of the bottle of wine, wiped his mouth after drinking it and said, "Refreshing!" ”

"Leave me a mouthful!"

"Leave me a mouthful!"

……

Everyone passed the bottle of whiskey one by one, and drank it one after another. Until the bottle of whiskey is finished. Baidu takes a look at the latest chapter of "Men's World Masterpiece Literature" to read for free for the first time.
