Precision Shooting(4)
Under the command of Liu Hai, Liu Xiaoshan and others took cover along the supply route and successfully delivered the supplies to the tunnel. This time, the materials sent in greatly alleviated the shortage of materials in the tunnel, especially the six buckets of water sent in, which greatly alleviated the water shortage of the tunnel troops, and the medicines sent in greatly reduced the pain of the wounded, which is of decisive significance for the perseverance of the tunnel troops!
"Master Liu, you did a good job this time! The situation in the pit is much better! Commander Qin looked at his bangs and said with satisfaction: "Your cannon is an indispensable firepower pillar now!" "My artillery is now in dire short of shells, I want to ask the army commander to think of a way, let the comrades in the back think of a way, if it can't be supplied again, my artillery will really stop!" Bangs is very angry about the lack of shells! "You can rest assured about this, our logistics have begun to think of a way, the original two roads to transport artillery shells to you, one is a highway, the other is a dirt road, and now they are all targeted, and the North Korean comrades have reopened a road to transport artillery shells to your artillery division!" Please say to the commander. "Commander, as long as there are shells, it's easy to say anything!" Liu Hai said happily after hearing the news.
"There is another thing, it is still the matter of the tunnel troops, the materials you covered and sent up have greatly alleviated the shortage of materials in the tunnel, but there are still a few tunnels that have lost contact with the No. 1 tunnel because they have been destroyed by the enemy, and they are even more difficult there, your task now is to cover the transport team as much as possible, and send them the weapons, water and medicine they urgently need!" Commander Qin said, "We have a total of three large tunnels and eight small tunnels, and the difficulty of those eight small tunnels is unimaginable, so this time you must suppress the enemy's fire blockade and send supplies to that tunnel!" "Yes!" Bangs said. "In addition, logistics will concentrate on transporting a large number of artillery shells to you, and you must have sufficient ammunition reserves to prepare for future counterattacks!" Commander Qin said. "Fight back? Fighting back? Bangs asked hurriedly. It's already brewing! Commander Qin said.
Commander Qin told Liu Hai that the battle of Shangganling was actually fought by the Americans for the sake of face and cooperation with the domestic campaign, and now their campaign has reached a critical time, and they have already publicized in the country that they have occupied Wusheng Mountain, occupied Shangganling, and have won a huge victory, and will soon march into the Pingkang Valley, and some American newspapers even clamored that the US army's soldiers will once again point their swords at the Yalu River! In view of this situation, the headquarters of the Volunteer Army decided to carry out a reactionary counteroffensive at the right time, recapture the position in one fell swoop, and slap the Americans in a resounding slap!
"The problem is that if you want to counterattack, you must have the cooperation of the tunnel troops, otherwise, with that kind of position and the firepower of the Americans, we don't know how much we have to pay to recapture it, that is to say, if you want to counterattack, you must restore the combat effectiveness of the tunnel, especially the replenishment of soldiers and ammunition and water, which must be delivered!" Commander Qin looked at Liu Hai as he spoke! "Commander Qin, rest assured, we have arranged the nearest artillery suppression, if the Americans really dare to destroy the tunnel, my artillery will give them a good taste!" Bangs said. "Well, as long as you can protect the tunnel from being destroyed by the Americans, it will be considered a foundation for a counterattack!" Commander Qin said.
Liu Hai returned to the division headquarters and first called someone to call the ghost cannon over. "Commander, is there something wrong?" The ghost cannon looked at the bangs and asked. "The artillery company you sent to protect the mouth of the tunnel, is there troops to protect it?" Bangs asked. "Nope!" Ghost Cannon said. "Why don't you send troops to protect it? What if the enemy sends someone to fight them? Also, two companies were drawn to protect several other pit mouths and cover the transport team to deliver supplies to the pit tunnels! Bangs said. Didn't the supplies go in? Ghost Cannon asked. Come and see! Liu Hai took out the map and said with his finger on the map, "We did send supplies in last time, but the enemy destroyed the connection between the No. 1 tunnel and these tunnels, and your two companies were arranged in this place to cover the mouth of the tunnel with direct shooting, and bring a company of infantry to cover!" "Yes!" The ghost cannon agreed, and said, "Guaranteed to complete the mission!" ”
The ghost artillery returned to its regimental headquarters and called the commander of the first and second companies of the second battalion, and the company commander of the company directly under the artillery regiment. "Your mission is to go here," the ghost artillery pointed out the location of the cover on the map, "cover the tunnel mouth and vent there from being damaged by the US army, and cover the convoy to replenish the tunnel!" You have to pay attention to air defense, and don't blow up the mouth of the tunnel, although it is a direct aiming distance, but the distance is not short, you must hit it accurately, you can't blow up the mouth of the tunnel by mistake! "Yes! Don't worry, Captain! The two company commanders said. The task of the direct company is to protect the artillery company and stop the enemy's attack on the artillery company! The ghost cannon said to the commander of the company directly under him. Be! The company commander of the direct company said. Cooperate with each other to protect the tunnel, and cover the transport team to deliver supplies to the tunnel! Ghost Cannon said.
The arrangement of the ghost artillery was very timely, and just after the two artillery batteries were in place, the US army also made a decision, that is, to resume the fire blockade of the tunnel supply line as soon as possible, and to increase the damage to the tunnel! In order to destroy the tunnel more effectively, the U.S. military carried the disassembled cannon to the firepower point in the mountain, and prepared to carry out direct cannon fire at the mouth of the tunnel of the Volunteer Army at close range, whether it was to blow up the tunnel or destroy the mouth of the tunnel! The U.S. military regarded the most thorn in the eye as the No. 1 pit of the Volunteer Army, so the U.S. military first moved a 120-millimeter cannon up the mountain, and then prepared to destroy it, and when this cannon was just set up for test firing, it was discovered by the commander of Anshun Company covering the No. 1 pit tunnel!
"It's a hundred shots at this distance!" Anshun watched the Americans set up a cannon, and the muzzle of the gun was facing the main tunnel mouth of the No. 1 tunnel, and then looked at the distance between his gun position and the other party, this distance is about 1,200 meters, such a distance is a hundred shots for Anshun! "Reload!" Anshun didn't dare to slack off, such a heavy artillery hit the mouth of the tunnel, it may not be able to blow up the tunnel, but there is no problem in burying the mouth of the tunnel, so he must not be allowed to launch! "Reloaded!" Anshun's gunners report in the back! "Good!" After Anshun operated the cannon to aim, he pulled the ignition rope, and a cannonball pierced straight out, accurately hitting the gun position of the American army! "Boom!" With a loud bang, the artillery of the US army was blown to pieces, the parts of the cannon flew in all directions, and the commander of the US artillery was smashed to a pulp by the soaring barrel, and the explosion also detonated the shells prepared for the cannon by the way, and after a series of explosions, the gun position of the US army was blown up to the sky!
"How so? How could the enemy's artillery hit our artillery directly? A U.S. military company commander shouted. Company commander, there are Chinese artillery opposite! That's why it's so accurate! A U.S. soldier said. Oh, yes? The company commander of the US army looked over here with a telescope and looked hard for the cannon of the Chinese opposite! At this time, Anshun saw that the other party was looking over to his side. "I'm worried that I can't find you, but you're still exposed!" Anshun once again operated the cannon and aimed at the American army who was watching all around. "It's so arrogant with a telescope!" Anshun fired after aiming, and a shell hit the fortification of the American company commander, and the entire fortification flew in an instant!
"The other party put the cannon near the mouth of the tunnel?" Cowan said in surprise when he heard the report. "Yes, the other side has indeed set up artillery near the mouth of the tunnel, and our troops now have no way to effectively destroy the enemy's mouth of the tunnel!" The staff officer said. "In this case, notify the air force to bomb the vicinity of the enemy's tunnel mouth and blow up the enemy's artillery that has reached the mouth of the tunnel!" Cowan said, "With a heavy *! "But division commander, the mouth of the pit of the Volunteer Army is very hidden, and our positions are very close, what if this heavy * bombs our troops?" The staff officer said. "No, our planes will be blown up accurately!" Cowan said to the staff officer.
"The company commander is not good!" A gunner has been in the air, several US bombers have flown over, and at this time Anshun saw the US soldiers on the opposite side waving into the air with white strips of cloth, in fact, it is not that the US military does not have ground-air communication means, but such a precise bombing needs ground guidance, and the US troops on the ground use white cloth strips to indicate the target to the bombers in the air! "Shall we shake it up too?" The gunner said as he watched the American soldier shake the strip of cloth. "No, the U.S. military's ground instructions must have their rules, if we don't know, the shaking can only be exposed, tell the other gun emplacements, everyone is not allowed to move, even if they die, they can't move!" Anshun said.
Sure enough, the US bombers did not directly drop bombs, but first used fighter planes to strafe around the mouth of the tunnel, hoping to use strafing to see if anyone on the other side would escape, and then bomb the place where there were people. However, the gunners of the gun position were all under the command of Anshun, and regardless of the strafing fire of the US troops, all the people lay on their stomachs and did not move, so that the US troops could not find out, and in the end, the US planes could only drop * on the area around the mouth of the tunnel, just as the US military staff officers were worried, a US heavy * was still dropped on the US military position, and once the 500-kilogram heavy * exploded, the lethal power was very great, and a team of South Korean troops was blown up by the US heavy * and wiped out!
