Chapter 14: Is there a fire, borrow a fire (three watches)

There are not many sentry posts where the U.S. army hoards supplies, Xia Yuan observed two, just solved one, only the last guard post remained, with Lao Niu and others, according to the way just now, the big head soldier was killed, and the body was dragged into the camp tent, and in a short time, the enemy would not find these corpses.

Of course, a change of guard posts of the enemy is not ruled out.

So, they have to move a little faster.

There are a total of four camp tents for hoarding materials, the camp tent is very large, all kinds of living materials, they are greedy for the old cows, even Xia Yuan is very greedy, this stick soldier is completely incomparable with the US army, after the battle on the nameless heights, the materials for sweeping the enemy are only one camp tent, half of them were distributed to the brother troops of the 537.7 heights, and half of them were brought back by the nine companies.

The U.S. military's supplies are stacked in four camp tents, one camp is equipped with weapons and ammunition, and the other three camp tents are storage and distribution of daily necessities, including all kinds of canned food, vegetables, and meat.

In addition to solving the guard post in the material storage area, Xia Yuan found the enemy's living tent less than fifty meters away from the four camp tents, there are three camp tents, and you can smell the unique smell of the kitchen when you get close, Xia Yuan opened a camp tent to observe, there are some pots and pans inside, and it can be basically concluded that this is the enemy's cooking class.

There was a sound of snoring coming from one of the tents, and everyone observed for a moment that there were twelve American soldiers, and there were two more empty sleeping bags next to them.

Xia Yuan immediately realized that the big-headed soldier killed in the material storage area belonged to the guard post placed by the enemy's cooking squad! In this way, the enemy's cooking class was solved, and the rear living area was basically controlled by them.

After thinking for a while, Xia Yuan motioned for everyone to move, and after arranging one or two targets for one person, Lao Niu opened the camp tent with one hand, and the four of them flipped over the bayonets, and quickly rushed in, pressing the enemy's mouth and nose with one hand, and the bayonet fell cleanly, piercing the enemy's neck, stabbing twice in a row, and there was no movement.

The U.S. soldier in the sleeping bag next to him was still asleep, muttering unconsciously from his mouth, not knowing if he was dreaming.

Xia Yuan's eyes were cold, he stepped forward, and learned about the other party's life cleanly, and the camp tent was soon filled with a pungent blood.

"It's settled, let's go!"

Xia Yuan didn't let them stay longer, or even pick up the corpses of the enemy, he was now able to conclude that in addition to cooking, the enemy's cooking squad was also responsible for guarding the area of daily necessities, so after dealing with them, no one would find out about the movement here.

After walking a short distance, Xia Yuan motioned for everyone to stop, there was a tent that was empty on all sides in the distance, and under a dim light bulb, there were howitzers and mortars parked, there were seven howitzers alone, and eleven mortars, which were enemy artillery.

A full-fledged reinforced company, equipped with specialized artillery.

There were three guard posts next to them, and the three big-headed soldiers did not fall asleep, but gathered together and chatted, more than 20 meters away, and in the silent night, they could even hear the enemy's conversation.

"Recently, the upper side has been preparing for war again, and I don't know if we will be able to return home alive."

"Hey, they're sitting in a warm room, drinking hot coffee, and giving random orders to fight, and we're going to fight for them! fuck! fuck! I'm fed up with this life, I'm going home, my wife and kids are still waiting for me. ”

"Man, calm down, the commander's battle plan has been rejected many times, maybe we can go home safely this time."

"Hey, do you still know what's going on over there in the Seventh Division? They are already preparing for war, His Excellency the Commander has agreed to the commander's battle plan, I only hope that we will not be filmed as commandos, and let the damned South Koreans go to their deaths, after all, we are fighting for them. ”

Xia Yuan frowned and thought about it seriously.

It seems that the enemy's grassroots have already known Van Vliet's plan, and it will not be long before the battle of Shangganling, which shocks the world, will break out on the 597.9 and 537.7 heights, a land with an area of only 3.4 square kilometers, with a total of 100,000 troops invested by both sides, and countless weapons and ammunition consumed.

The weapons and ammunition hoarded in the 597.9 highland tunnels were planned to be used for more than a month, and only on the first day of the Shangganling battle, the weapons and ammunition in the tunnels were basically exhausted.

On the first day, 197,000 rounds of ammunition, 10,000 grenades, and 300 grenades were fired, and only 3 shells remained of the regiment's mountain artillery.

And that's just the amount of ammunition our army consumed on the first day, and in the days that follow, it will double again.

"This time, we must target the enemy's plan to Shangganling, the high-speed company commander!"

Xia Yuan stared at the American soldiers talking in the distance, and the old cow on the side asked cautiously, "Xia Yuan, can you understand what they say?" ”

Just when facing the sentry set up by the U.S. army, Xia Yuan spoke the bird's language in the enemy's mouth, and Lao Niu concluded that Xia Yuan should be able to understand.

Sure enough, Xia Yuan nodded, and he said in a low voice: "I can understand a little, they said that the war prepared by their superiors recently will launch a large-scale attack on the Shangganling area, and they said that they want to go home, and they hope not to send them to attack Shangganling." ”

Lao Niu and the others' faces changed greatly.

Launch a large-scale attack on the Shangganling area!

"What you say is true? Could it be misheard, how could the enemy launch a large-scale attack on Shangganling? Lao Niu asked again.

"Those soldiers mentioned, don't forget that the recent movements in the US camp are frequent, they pull people out during the day and back at night, so as to create an illusion that they are going out again, in fact, they are frantically stationing troops opposite us, and it is not impossible for the other party's target to be Shangganling." Xia Yuan's eyes condensed slightly, and he quickly said, "We now have to determine the accuracy of the enemy's battle plan!" ”

Lao Niu and the others nodded, this is a huge piece of information, if it is true, this is definitely a day to blow up for the commanders and fighters in the entire Shangganling area.

"Xia Yuan, what should we do next?"

Lao Niu They have basically obeyed Xia Yuan's words, basically from the moment they passed through the minefield, the soldiers' impression of Xia Yuan has changed, and what really changed their opinion of Xia Yuan is that this guy rushed into the enemy bunker alone, and after finishing off the two American soldiers, he even had the ability to kill one more person.

In addition to using a variety of guns, their scouts must also have strong fighting ability, scratching their tongues at night but have to subdue the US military, without strong fighting ability, it is difficult to join the scouts. Xia Yuan, this kid, put down one of them in one look, if it wasn't for his own people, it is estimated that the knife would have stabbed down.

At this time, they discovered that Xia Yuan not only has a strong ability to throw bombs, but is also a good sniper, and in terms of fighting, this guy is also very proficient, this kind of soldier is simply born for scouts.

Zou Tianfu said in a low voice: "This is the artillery position of the US army, should we blow it up?" ”

Xia Yuan calmly looked around and said, "No, the artillery position is not a big threat to us for the time being, our primary goal is to deal with the enemy's living forces, follow me!" ”

He quietly retreated, and after being far away from the enemy's artillery position, he burrowed into the trench dug by the American army, and led the old cow to touch the American position under the cover of night.

According to the custom of the American army, the artillery position is the center of the entire position, and the tunnel is most likely on the position in front of the artillery position.

Sure enough, not long after they got closer, they spotted the enemy's guard post, a firing point protruding from the trench, surrounded by sandbags, and the bright light coming from the mouth of the smoking soldier could be seen in the distance.

The discovery of the U.S. military's firepower point means that the U.S. military's tunnel is likely to be in this area.

The U.S. military's tunnels are a huge pit dug in the position, in which soldiers can be hidden and can live, different from the tunnels on the 597.9 heights, these tunnels can not only prevent artillery bombardment, but also carry out rapid support.

The U.S. military's experience in digging trenches and tunnels is much higher than that of volunteer soldiers, and the trenches they dig are also much more complex, with bomb craters and small cantonment tunnels everywhere.

Xia Yuan took them forward for more than ten meters, through the crooked trench, just on the side of the trench in front of them, a black tunnel appeared, judging from the mouth of the tunnel, it should be a small cantonment tunnel, this kind of small cantonment tunnel is generally garrisoned by a squad of American troops, almost every few tens of meters, there is such a tunnel.

It is similar to the tunnel dug by the volunteers on the 597.9 heights, the main tunnel on the No. 1 position, and the small cantonment tunnels on other positions.

After all, digging a large tunnel is not easy.

Xia Yuan stared at the firepower points in the distance, there were only three firepower points with sentry posts, and there were no other firepower points.

Lao Niu they also looked with their heads open, and could only see the black, protruding machine gun shooting bunker, and the rifle firing bunker is different, the machine gun firing bunker is one or two meters forward, oval, can bear oblique fire side fire, machine gun sound, and easy to be hit by artillery fire, so the machine gun bunker is distinguished from the rifle bunker, so that when the machine gun crew encounters shelling, they will also die themselves, will not affect the riflemen in the trench.

The sky was not very bright at night, and the sky was thicker with clouds, blocking the moonlight tonight, and they looked over and could see nothing.

But the red light of the enemy's smoking is quite bright.

After a short observation, Xia Yuan waved his hand to the five people, signaling them to enter the enemy's tunnel, the old cow took the lead with a gun, and everyone followed closely, Xia Yuan covered for them, and after entering the tunnel safely, they quickly touched inside, and soon saw the resting American troops inside.

There is not even a guard post, but think about it, when they are resting, they will not set up a guard in the tunnel, and the volunteers in the forward position will immediately shoot when they find the enemy, and the soldiers in the rear will basically wake up.

Fifteen enemies, Xia Yuan asked one to watch at the door, and the remaining few arranged each person's personal target, they quickly approached the American troops in the sleeping bags, and before they could find out, they reached out and covered their mouths and noses hard, and wiped their necks with sharp bayonets.

It's autumn, and unlike winter, sleeping in an eiderdown sleeping bag is stuffy in itself, especially in this tunnel, it's even more dull, so they sleep with their heads exposed and their bodies lying in their sleeping bags. This made it very convenient for Xia Yuan and them to do it, wiping their necks and covering their mouths, the amplitude of their struggle would gradually become smaller, and they couldn't even make a sound, and the throat that was cut was cut kept breathing, and the blood foamed out from the separated neck.

Xia Yuan glanced at Lao Niu and they moved, they were worthy of being scouts who had experienced a hundred battles, and their movements were also very clean and neat, a team of fifteen people was quickly killed by the five of them cleanly, and after killing fifteen American soldiers, their bodies and hands were more or less stained with blood.

"Move on to the next one."

Xia Yuan got up and glanced at the things in the tunnel, the US military also hoarded a lot of weapons and ammunition in the tunnel, which did not help them much.

"This is a peripheral tunnel, and after we go deeper, it is impossible to kill one pit after another like this. So, next I will take you to one pit after another, when you encounter a pit tunnel, you will throw a grenade inside, the whole process, do not say a word, keep silent throughout the whole process, one person loses one, you are not allowed to look back after throwing, follow me and continue to move forward, I go fast, you also go fast, I run, you also run, remember no. ”

"Remember!"

Xia Yuan gathered the five people together, quickly arranged, and advanced to the depths of the position, the enemy's tunnels will increase, and the number of American troops in a tunnel will also change, the most critical point is that they don't know the internal situation of the tunnels dug by the enemy, this time they are lucky, if the enemy stationed in the next tunnel is a platoon.

Or go into the pit and bump into the enemy head-on.

After Xia Yuan thought about it carefully, this way of wiping his neck was certainly silent, but it was too risky, once it was discovered by the enemy, they would be blocked in the tunnel and unable to advance or retreat.

At this point, it's time to change your strategy.

They walked out of the tunnel, everyone had a strong smell of blood, Xia Yuan walked in the front, and the five old cows followed behind him, everyone remained extremely silent, but they were holding grenades in their hands.

Xia Yuan walked and observed, and always kept an eye on the enemy's guard post, they were getting closer and closer to the enemy's guard post, and they could even hear the enemy talking softly.

When a big-headed soldier who smoked saw Xia Yuan and them, he thought that he was here to change the guard, so he stood up and wanted to get closer, and said, "Man, the time for the change of guard hasn't come yet, why did you come here so early." ”

Xia Yuan didn't pause, and responded quietly: "I can't sleep, let's go out for a walk." ”

When Xia Yuan and the others approached, the big-headed soldier noticed that Xia Yuan's faces were dirty, so he smiled and said, "Man, didn't you wash your faces before going to bed?" ”

"Nope." Xia Yuan shook his head, kept getting closer, and said, "Is there a fire, borrow a fire." ”

"Yes."

The big-headed soldier didn't think much about it, there was another big-headed soldier at the machine-gun fire point, and after he looked at it, he didn't pay any more attention, lying on the soft sleeping bag, smoking a cigarette on his own.

The big-headed soldier who was talking to Xia Yuan took out the lighter from his pocket, and as soon as he got close to Xia Yuan, he smelled a smell of blood, and the lighter in his hand subconsciously moved, and with a click, the firelight lit up, and the big-headed soldier boy suddenly shrank.

In front of him stood six soldiers covered in blood, with dark faces and expressionless faces, staring at him with fixed eyes.
