Stick to the Ridge Line (5)
"Commander Wu, the division commander asked you to send another artillery battalion over to support!" The only remaining guard in the bombing finally ran to Wu Fatzi's headquarters. "Isn't there an artillery battalion there?" Fat Wu asked in surprise. "The enemy carried out carpet bombardment, and the artillery battalions and gunners suffered heavy losses!" The guard said, "Platoon Commander Wu, you arrange it immediately, I have to go back to the division headquarters, the division commander's guards were all lost in the bombing, and now the division commander is there alone, I will go back and call another platoon guard!" "Okay, I'll arrange it right away!" Fat Wu nodded and said.
"Captain, do you want to go by yourself?" The battalion commander of the third battalion ran over and asked Wu Fatzi. "Of course I have to go by myself, the division commanders have gone, it must be the most important battle, I must go and see!" Wu Fatzi said, "Now your task is to be optimistic about the position and be ready to obey orders at any time, understand?" "Don't worry, Captain!" The third battalion commander said. "One more thing, prepare for support, if there is an order, no matter what, immediately come to me to support!" Wu Fatzi explained. "Okay, don't worry, Captain!" The third battalion commander said.
After Wu Fatzi explained, he rushed to the location where Liu Hai was with his second battalion, and when he arrived at the position of the first battalion, Wu Fatzi found out how badly it was bombed, the entire position of the first battalion was in disarray, only the remaining ten guns were mutilated, and there were not many shells left, if it wasn't for Wu Fatzi to support now, I am afraid that he would not be able to withstand the next US attack! After arranging the artillery camp, Wu Fatzi led people to the place where Liu Hai was lying in front of him, and there were four corpses lying next to Liu Hai, all of which were the remains of Liu Hai's guards. Bangs lie on a stone and calculate what with a pen!
"Commander, I'm here!" Wu Fatzi hurriedly ran over, "Are you okay?" "It's okay!" Liu Hai turned his head and glanced at Wu Fatzi and said, "You see, there is our main target in this operation, which is the ridge fortification!" As long as we can hold the ridge line fortifications, we will protect the tunnel, protect the tunnel, and lay the foundation for future counterattacks! "I saw it!" Wu Fatzi probably took a look at the ridged fortifications in the distance: "As long as this kind of fortification can hold down the area above it, it can ensure that the fortifications are worry-free!" "I also know what you said, but you can also see that the terrain in this area is not very good, and it is not very conducive to the concealment of our artillery, plus the bombing of the Americans!" Liu Hai glanced at Wu Fatzi and said, "But no matter what, you must stick to the ridge line!" "Don't worry, teacher, you go back to the teacher, I'll leave it here!"
Liu Hai looked at the ridge line in front of him, and remembered that he really couldn't stay here, in case the Americans made a move in other directions, he would have to coordinate and command, and it should not be a big problem to hand it over to Wu Fatzi here! "Fat Wu, you remember, the cannon should be dispersed as much as possible, and there can be no more losses like last time! Also, the ridge fortifications must not have anything to do, remember? Bangs explained. Yes, Commander, don't worry! Wu Fatzi said. Good! Liu Hai glanced at Wu Fatzi before he got up and walked towards the teacher!
"Regiment commander, just now the commander of the first battalion arranged two point-firing guns in front, but they were destroyed in the bombardment, and the gunner was also missing, are we now arranging two more point-fire guns to prepare for point-fire?" The acting commander of the first company of the 1st Artillery Battalion said to Wu Fatzi, "Also, just now the division commander's guard platoon commander was ordered to monitor, if an enemy rushes into the ridged position, the guard platoon commander will immediately shoot the battalion commander!" "Huh?" Wu Fatzi didn't expect the division commander to give such a harsh order, so now it seems that this ridge line is very important! "Immediately arrange two cannons to the front as point guns to carry out accurate bombardment of the enemy!" Wu Fatzi said to his second battalion commander.
At this time, the commander of the US army Cowen was very satisfied, he felt that as long as a carpet bombing was carried out, it would definitely be possible to destroy their positions and personnel on the opposite side of the ridge line, as for the machine gun in the tunnel, it was not a problem, anyway, this time there was tank cover, and it would not be a problem to destroy a machine gun! Under Cowen's arrangement, the U.S. army drove two light tanks from the south to the height of the ridgeline, preparing to use these two tanks to cover the fire of the troops to rush to the ridgeline, and rush up to kill the machine gun positions on the ridgeline in one fell swoop! In addition to the frontal tank cover, Cowan also arranged for the South Korean Army to attack from both sides of the ridge line and carry out a pincer attack on the fortifications on the ridgeline, and Cowan was confident that he would take the ridge line! With Cowen's order, the army's attack began, and the South Korean troops on both sides took the lead in running down from the mountains on both sides, and began to attack the machine gun positions on the ridge line from both sides, while the American troops on the front of the ridge line pounced towards the ridge line under the cover of two tanks!
"Commander, the enemy is attacking!" The commander of the first company reported to Wu Fatzi. "Good!" Wu Fatzi came to the lookout, looked out with a telescope, and saw the US army and the South Korean army pressing up from three sides towards the ridge line! Wu Fatzi originally planned to open artillery bombardment of the South Korean troops on both sides, but after a careful look, he found that the ridged position seemed to be possible to break through only from the top of the ridgeline, and it was impossible for the South Korean army to break through from both sides, especially in front of the ridged machine gun position, the South Korean army was only slaughtered, so Wu Fatzi decided to concentrate artillery power to bombard the American troops above!
In fact, the U.S. military has also made some preparations! For example, the county asked the South Korean army to attack the ridge position from both flanks, just to attract the opponent's firepower to greet the South Korean army, but the South Korean army launched an attack on the ridge position and saw that the other side did not move! "The Chinese don't have many artillery, their artillery must have been destroyed in the bombardment just now!" An American captain in charge of the attack commander said, "The bombardment just now is so bad, they have no way to keep their artillery, they must have been destroyed, attack!" ”
"Fire!" Wu Fatzi watched the two tanks of the US army cover the US army and rushed to the ridge line, and immediately ordered his artillery to fire, Wu Fatzi's cannon hit very accurately and fiercely, dozens of shells almost instantly smashed on the impact route of the US army, and the two tanks covering the US army were blown over one at the first time, and one was destroyed, and the US troops around the tank were naturally no better, without the cover of the tank, they were blown up miserably by the excited heavy artillery shells, and several US soldiers were blown up in pieces, and their arms and thighs were flying all over the sky. Cowen's carefully prepared attack was repelled by Wu Fatzi with more than seventy shells! As for the South Korean army, it was not much better, and after the US troops retreated, they also hurriedly threw down hundreds of corpses and retreated!
"It can't be! How could the Chinese still have such a heavy artillery? After Cowan saw the failure of the attack, he looked at the opposite side in disbelief, he thought it was too incredible, after such a bombardment, how could the Chinese still have artillery, the terrain on the opposite side could not hide too large weapons at all! In fact, Cowan is still too self-righteous, and the terrain opposite is indeed not suitable for hiding large weapons, but now the place where Wu Fatzi is located can still hide an artillery battalion, and there is also the fact that the preparation time of the US army after the bombing is too long, giving Wu Fatzi time to rush to support!
"The division commander actually has another way, he can also kill their ridge line fortifications, and even blow up their tunnels!" A staff officer suggested to Cowen. "Tell me, what's the solution?" Cowan asked hurriedly. "Division commander, you see, these Chinese are very cunning, our artillery fire is a hundred times more fierce than theirs, but it still doesn't work, so we need some special methods!" The staff officer pulled Cowan to the map and said, "Their convoys often use the night to send supplies into the tunnel, and now although the sixth position is in their hands, there is still a distance under our absolute control, we can disguise a small team of people as their convoy, take the opportunity to send supplies, rush into the pit to kill them, and then place * to blast!" "That's a great idea! I think I can try it! Master Cowen said.
"But division commander, before we act, or before we are ready, we should still attack the ridgeline, and we can't let them know our intentions!" The staff officer said, "The next attack will be put in charge of those South Koreans, if we can take the ridge line, it is best to take it, if not, we can also consume their tunnel ammunition, so that they will find a way to resupply the tunnel, so that we have the opportunity to pretend to be their supply team to destroy the tunnel!" "You're right, we can try!" Commander Cowen said, "Pick the members of the supply team, please arrange it!" ”
"The task of your regiment is to launch four battalion-level attacks on the enemy's ridge line before noon today!" The staff officer of the US military said to the battalion commander of the South Korean Army without question. "But, sir, the enemy's artillery fire has blocked the top of the ridgeline, and if we rush hard, we will be looking for death!" said the battalion commander of the South Korean Army. "Do you think we should send an aircraft carrier to cover you?" The U.S. staff officer shouted at the South Korean Army, "If you can't complete the mission I gave you, I will destroy you!" Bastard! ”
After careful selection, the staff officer selected 10 South Korean officers who could speak Chinese, and then told them to complete a special mission, and if they could complete it, they would be promoted to three levels, and each would be rewarded with 1,000 dollars, and the most important thing was that as long as they completed this task, they could return to their hometowns from the front line and withdraw from the war! Under the deception of the US military officers, ten South Korean army officers were willing to complete this task!
