Chapter 189: The First Attack of the 5th Marine Regiment of the U.S. Army!
"Brother, the American devil is here."
Wu Wanli looked at the U.S. troops in the distance and reminded in a low voice.
"Don't rush, get closer and fight."
Wu Qianli pressed down with his right hand and motioned for everyone to stay calm.
Seeing this, the soldiers of the Seventh Regiment suppressed their desire to fight and watched the American soldiers gradually approach.
The American soldiers looked at the motionless high ground, and could only bite the bullet and continue to approach.
However, when they reached a certain distance, one of the American officers suddenly made a gesture, and all the American soldiers suddenly fell to their stomachs.
"Boom ......"
At the foot of the mountain, the heavy machine guns of the US troops roared one after another, and the dense bullets swept in front of the position of the Seventh Regiment, stirring up countless earth and stones.
Many stones struck Wu Qianli and the others' steel helmets, making a clanging sound, but they still waited calmly.
"Damn, can't you have fought back sooner?"
The lying American officer looked at the motionless high ground, sighed and scolded in some disappointment.
If the squadron can't help but fire back, then their task of testing the firepower will be completed, and they can evacuate in advance.
In desperation, he made a battle gesture backwards and asked for artillery support.
Seeing this, the American troops in the mortar position in the rear hurriedly opened the wooden box of the shells and quickly stuffed the shells into the chambers.
"Whoa—"
"Whoa—"
More than a dozen mortar shells whistled through the wind and snow and smashed fiercely towards the position of the Seventh Regiment.
"Boom! Rumble! Boom!"
The violent explosion raised countless snow curtains, and in the firelight, countless shrapnel flew out in all directions, and embedded deep in all parts of the trench.
"Phew, these American devils are really willing, and they can shoot so many shells with a tentative attack."
Lei Gong shook off the snow on his body and scolded a little unpleasantly.
"The explosion was quite decisive, but it feels like their accuracy has dropped a lot."
"In the whole group, there was not a single minor injury."
Pinghe observed it a little and said with a slight smile.
"Okay, the reward bonus that the system just issued will take effect so soon."
"With fortifications such as anti-slopes, and a 45 percent bombing inaccuracy bonus, the American devil air force is not afraid of bombing."
The corners of Wu Qianli's mouth rose, and he said secretly in his heart.
"Regiment commander, the positions of the machine guns and mortars of the American devils are clear, and they can be shelled at any time."
After observing for a while, Lei Gong said confidently.
"Commander, the American devils have reached the predetermined distance, and they can all be solved in a few minutes."
Yu Congrong couldn't hold back for a long time, and reported with a full of fighting spirit.
"Wanli, grenade!"
Wu Qianli didn't talk nonsense, and shouted loudly directly.
"Cast!"
Wu Wanli and the others, who had been prepared for a long time, pulled the ring open, and after silently counting for two seconds, they threw the grenades out one after another.
"Boom! Boom!"
The grenades emitted white smoke and exploded as they spun into the air.
"Ahh
The dozen or so US soldiers in front were defenseless and were immediately blown up in a blur of flesh and blood.
"Hit!"
Wu Qianli didn't give them a chance to react, shouted and lifted Thomson, and shot at the figure of the American soldier in the black smoke.
Countless fighters showed their heads one after another, pressed the butts of their rifles, and fired wildly with their submachine guns.
Dense bullets erupted, countless brass shells flew out of the side of the gun, and the powerful recoil kept hitting their chests.
Not long after, the snow was stained red with blood, and a large number of corpses fell to the ground.
More blood clots and limbs were scattered everywhere, and there were half-dead American soldiers wailing.
At the same time, Lei Gong on the artillery battalion position waved his hand, and rows of mortars lit up.
Countless shells with gusts of wind breaking sound, accurate
smashed into the positions of the American troops below.
Before many American troops could escape, they were directly drowned in the orange and red clouds of artillery fire.
Not only that, but the shells also detonated the mortar shell boxes of the American army, destroying all machine guns and mortars. Look at the book
As for the tanks of the US army, although they were fine, the observation window was obscured by the smoke of the explosion, and they directly became blind.
In just a few minutes, the attacking American troops not only suffered heavy losses, but also lost all fire support.
「Shit!」
"Their fire is too strong, retreat immediately!"
Seeing this, the US military officer who survived by luck hurriedly ordered loudly.
When the U.S. retreated, Pinghe and others sniped and made up for several U.S. troops.
It wasn't until they plunged headlong into the smoke that Pinghe reluctantly put down his sniper rifles.
"Commander, just let me lead a company to pursue, and the battle can be resolved in a minute!"
Yu Congrong looked at the fleeing American soldier and pleaded with some unfinished feelings.
"Can't chase anymore, order the whole regiment to move to the anticline fortifications."
Wu Qianli shook his head and ordered categorically.
"Yes!"
When everyone heard this, although they were a little puzzled, they still responded without hesitation.
After the order was delivered, all the soldiers of the 7th Regiment rushed to the rear with the order, and soon they were all transferred to the fortifications.
"Whoa—"
At this time, the large-caliber howitzer roared suddenly, and countless shells approached with bursts of explosions.
"Boom! Rumble! Boom!"
Soon, a deafening explosion resounded through the sky, and a violent burst of fire covered their position.
"Brother, fortunately, you ordered the transfer, if we were still there, it is estimated that we would have to sacrifice a lot of comrades."
Wu Wanli looked at the position that was shelled outside, and said with a sigh of relief.
"It's my old man who is reckless."
When Yu Congrong on the side heard this, his old face was slightly red and he lowered his head.
"What about the casualties?"
Wu Qianli glanced at the soldiers of the whole regiment with concern and asked.
"Report to the head of the regiment, no one in the whole regiment was killed, only two were slightly injured."
Lei Gong quickly finished the count and reported.
"Regiment Commander, the phone number of the commander of the 27th Army."
Mei Sheng picked up the microphone and reminded in a low voice.
"Wu Qianli, the commander of the Seventh Regiment, may I ask what instructions the chief has."
Wu Qianli took the phone and said into the microphone.
"Hahaha, don't dare to say the instructions, you kid is directly under the Zhiji, the boss's favorite general, I won't interfere with your command."
"Just tell us how the situation is, and we can help with the response."
On the other end of the phone, the commander's hearty words came.
"Report to the chief, the 7th Regiment repelled the first round of the American attack, and there were almost no casualties."
"Please rest assured, as long as the 331 Heights are in the hands of Qianli, they will never be lost, and I am willing to make a military order."
Wu Qianli had a straight face and said solemnly.
"Good!"
"Heights 331 is the gateway to the Hwacheon region, and it is also the most important position, so it is the best arrangement to hand it over to your Gang 7th Regiment."
"If you need anything, I'll do my best to accommodate you."
The commander said appreciatively.
"Chief, although the firepower of the Seventh Regiment is fierce, but because of this, the ammunition of the US weapon is consumed too quickly, and it is difficult to replenish, see if you can ...... it."
Wu Qianli was unceremonious, and said with a smile directly.
"I happened to have captured some some a while ago, and I'll ask the supply team to send you a batch in the evening."
"Anyway, these American-style weapons and ammunition scattered to the 27th Army will not play much role, so it is better to replenish them for you first."
When the commander heard this, he responded very arrogantly.
"Thank you, Chief!"
Wu Qianli grinned and replied. …………
……………………………………
At the same time, inside the command of the US military
"Report to the chief, the command has sent three telegrams in succession, urging us to hurry up and conquer Heights 331, open the gap in Hwacheon's defense, and conquer Hwacheon City as soon as possible."
An American military officer handed over the telegram and reminded him a little helplessly.
「Fuck,you!」
"Have the ability to let them come in person and see if they can quickly knock on the position of the squadron!"
"You also saw in the battle just now, this squadron has rapid firepower and excellent combat quality, and it is definitely an ace elite unit."
"If we were to rush forward, it would probably end up as disastrous as the French battalion."
Colonel Krombetz shook off his white gloves and cursed.
"Sir, according to the latest news from our scouts, the 27th Army of the Volunteer Army has guarded all other dangerous places in Hwacheon."
"The troops we sent have all tried to attack these places, and even tried to attack by detour."
"But they were so heavily guarded that all of our plans failed."
At this time, another U.S. military officer handed over a military report and reported in a low voice.
"Eh......
"Call back the headquarters, let's just say that the defense of the squadron is very tight, and the 331 Heights are even more difficult nails, and we can't find the slightest flaw at all."
"We will do our best to attack, but with us alone, it is estimated that it will be difficult to take Hwacheon quickly, and I hope that the headquarters can mobilize troops to reinforce it."
Colonel Corombets sighed and said slowly.
「Yes,sir!」
An American officer hurriedly responded and quickly sent a telegram to the command headquarters.
