Chapter 15: Something Isn't Right (Ask for Collection)
Due to time constraints, the 7th Interspersed Company did not have long to repair, brought enough food, weapons and ammunition, stuffed some cotton and weeds in its clothes to keep out the cold, and set out with 20 radio stations and interpreters.
They were in a position not far from the Yalu River, and they were walking on a mountain road, and they did not encounter the enemy, not even enemy planes.
"The number of US planes flying over the Yalu River is still relatively small, and most of them are reconnaissance planes, and as we continue to go deeper, the enemy's planes will gradually increase."
Xia Yuan looked at the bare trees on the mountains on both sides, it was November day, it was already winter, the temperature was dropping, it was getting colder and colder, and there were withered yellow leaves and bare trunks everywhere.
Along the way, the soldiers did not speak to each other, and advanced with their heads down, and the 20 radio stations and several comrades of the interpreters walked in the middle of the ranks, and the soldiers of the artillery platoon were protected by the soldiers of the fire platoon. Due to the special nature of the 7th Interspersed Company, the 7th Company was a relatively complete company with its own artillery platoon.
Wu Qianli and Mei Sheng took the map and observed as they walked, and there were three or four scouts in front of the team, responsible for checking the movements around them, and their range of activities revolved around the Seventh Interspersed Company.
Xia Yuan didn't want to change the plot, his biggest reliance was to be familiar with the plot and change it rashly, the fate of the seventh interspersed company would not even be known to him, and he would lose the advantage of being a traverser. As a last resort, the plot in the movie still follows along. There were too many dead and wounded on the entire battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, and his individual strength was very weak, and he was powerless in the face of changes in the general situation.
Conform to history and respect history.
"Shift 1 and 2 stay on guard, and the others rest in place!"
After rushing for more than two hours, Wu Qianli motioned for everyone to rest in place, and in the low valley, the soldiers scattered and leaned against the corner to rest.
Yu Congrong touched Xia Yuan's side, took out a somewhat shabby small book, and handed it to Xia Yuan: "Xia Yuan, this is a diagram of our gestures, you can see for yourself, when you get here, there is no safety on the Yalu River, and you may meet with the US army at any time, you are a new soldier, I should explain to you the tactics of our company." ”
"This is..."
Xia Yuan opened the small notebook and was immediately shocked by the contents inside.
The small book records in detail some of the movements and meanings of 'spoken language' and 'sign language', and even includes 'military horns' and 'radio'.
"This thing is a treasure, we even have the most precious thing, you have to keep it in your heart." Yu Congrong grinned, with a proud face, "Wu Wanli joins the artillery platoon, he will follow Lei Gongxue, I will teach you here, the next content must be kept in mind, and you will cooperate with this book when the time comes." ”
Xia Yuan nodded and held the small notebook in his arms.
Yu Congrong patted Xia Yuan's shoulder, leaned on the slope, carefully took out a handful of fried noodles, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed it in large gulps, "Eat a little, replenish your strength." ”
"Let's eat potatoes, it's too cold, I'm afraid the potatoes will freeze." Xia Yuan grinned, his heart warm.
Yu Congrong seems to be very unreliable at times, but when it comes to the battlefield, he has become Wu Qianli's most solid backing.
The potatoes are not as cold as they are in Changjin Lake, they can knock out people's teeth, and they are still soft at this time, and when you bite into it, there is no taste.
Pinghe sat aside and wiped the gun in his hand, and when Xia Yuan looked at it, Pinghe noticed it and nodded coldly to Xia Yuan.
Yu Congrong ate fried noodles and explained: "He is like this, he usually doesn't talk much, but on the battlefield, his bullets are like eyes, and his marksmanship is very powerful." ”
Xia Yuan looked envious, with his current marksmanship, he was far from reaching the level of a sniper, and he still needed to be tempered by war.
After eating the potatoes in his mouth in three or two bites, Xia Yuan came to Pinghe's side and continued to ask for sniper knowledge.
When he was training in Shandong, Xia Yuan asked Pinghe to teach him, and he found that when Pinghe taught him, the proficiency of aiming skills would improve very quickly.
So along the way, Xia Yuan will find Pinghe if he has nothing to do, this is an experience baby.
Pinghe wiped the gun in his hand, "It's very simple to shoot a gun, aim, pull the trigger, but if you can't hit it, it's hard to say, this is the biggest difficulty." It's easy to say, it's hard to do, in a short period of time, I can't teach you too many things, there is only one word, practice, just like you practice martial arts is a truth, spring, summer, autumn and winter, it takes a long time to persist and train. ”
Xia Yuan has looked for him many times, asking for experience in sniping, Pinghe is still very patient, and the gun in his hand has also been wiped by him, this gun was captured from Lao Jiang's hands, and he can't put it down, this gun has been with him for a long time, from the Anti-Japanese War to the present.
Pinghe is also a veteran, and he has been on a lot of battlefields with the seventh interspersed company, in addition to daily training, most of the marksmanship is fought on the battlefield, of course, some are related to his own talent.
Xia Yuan listened carefully, and the proficiency of the aiming skill was swishing upward.
Pinghe saw that Xia Yuan listened carefully, as if he had opened a chatterbox, and even described some of the battles he had participated in before.
“... At that time, Yu Congrong, this kid, was so crushed by a machine gun that he couldn't raise his head, but I saved him. ”
As he spoke, he talked to Yu Congrong again.
Yu Congrong grinned, stared at Pinghe and blinked, and just as he was about to speak, he heard Wu Qianli's voice coming over.
"All of them! Gather! ”
The fighters quickly got up and quickly assembled in platoons.
"Let's go."
It was just a short break of a few minutes, and the team set off again, time waited for no one, they didn't have so much time to rest, and the higher-level radio station was in short supply, and it was urgent.
This kind of rush is nothing to the soldiers of the Seventh Company who often participate in the battle, but for Wu Wanli, it is a little difficult, walking and walking, he and Zhang Xiaoshan fell behind the team, Xia Yuan and Pinghe Yu Congrong took care of the two, followed by the team, there were scouts in front, and if they found danger, they would immediately blow the whistle and notify the team in the rear.
As we advanced, the air grew colder, and the breath that the soldiers exhaled turned into bursts of white mist, and the team remained silent, no one spoke, only the sound of weapons and equipment colliding as they marched, and the sound of stepping on the dry leaves on the ground.
This time, I don't know how long I walked, but I only knew that the sun in the sky walked a small half circle, not two hours, but also an hour.
The team came to a relatively narrow mountain col, where the terrain was relatively flat, Xia Yuan vaguely thought of something, and quickly stepped forward to stop Wu Qianli.
"Company commander, stop, something is wrong."
Wu Qianli blew a whistle, signaled the team to stop, looked at Xia Yuan, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Xia Yuan's mind was very nimble, and just by passing through a Yalu River bridge and stopping to rest, he was able to deduce that the enemy's bombers might blow up the bridge, and even spot the troop transport train parked on the railroad tracks.
This shows that he has a flexible mind and a unique vision.
Mei Sheng leaned over, "Boldly say, what you said the first few times has been confirmed, if you think of anything, tell us in advance." ”
Xia Yuan nodded heavily, this was exactly the effect he wanted, and the company commander and instructor trusted him enough.
"Company commander, where have we been?"
"Further on, there is a river, and after the river, there is a continuous mountainous area, and we must speed up the pace of the march and strive to reach the destination within two days."
The destination of the station to be shipped.
Big Elm Cave.
