The US command post was brightly lit, and a group of commanders looked at the model of the Shangganling map and could not calm down for a long time.

It is really hard for them to imagine that it is obviously a small hill, and they have sent four battalions of troops, and under the continuous bombardment of aircraft and artillery, they have been unable to attack it, and now it is getting late, and the commander of the US army received the casualties transmitted from the front line, and he was furious, constantly scolding, and the adjutants did not dare to say a word.

"The Triangle Mountain has not yet been taken, do you know how many casualties the infantry had?"

"Fifteen hundred! Fifteen hundred! fuck！ fuck！ To hell with it! If this continues, the Seventh Division will be finished sooner or later! ”

“fuck！”

An adjutant cautiously said: "Sir, the good news is that we have captured the enemy's position on the east flank. ”

The commander glared at him and scolded loudly: "Your Excellency the Commander expects two hundred casualties to take the enemy's position, and we have not taken one thousand and five hundred casualties, is it good to take only one in the position?" A sucker! ”

"Sir, according to the report of the Warlords, there are many soldiers in the UN Army who are afraid of war."

The commander turned his head to look at him: "You're reminding me to raise the morale of the soldiers, aren't you?" fuck！ You need to remind me!? The UN forces are a bunch of stupid pigs, they are not here to fight at all, they are here for vacation, you look at the appearance of their infantry, frivolous, you look at our opponents! ”

He stepped forward and stared at the adjutant in front of him: "Os, do you know how many A's soldiers are in the position in front of us?" A reinforced company! fuck！ We used two divisions to defeat a reinforced company of the enemy! I didn't dare to report today's results to the commander, if he knew, you knew what greeted us, you know what those AP guys would write about us? ”

"Say we're a bunch of pigs! A few thousand people can't beat a position held by a few hundred! ”

“fuck！ fuck！ fuck！ ”

The adjutant was silent, and scolded the stick army and those fools of the United Nations army in his heart, if it weren't for them, our infantry would have captured Shangganling a long time ago!

A bunch of idiots!

The U.S. military took the 537.7 heights, which seemed to be a win, but in fact it was a loss.

......

At the headquarters of the 235th Regiment located in the rear, the regiment commander was anxious, the enemy had been continuously bombarding the surface positions in Shangganling for a day, and what was the situation of our troops on the surface positions, and how well the positions were held, since our troops carried out a round of artillery bombardment of the enemy three hours ago, there has been no movement.

Our army's artillery ammunition reserves are very small, and a round of shelling has basically exhausted the artillery reserves of the 235th Regiment, and if it were not for the capture of a batch of artillery shells by the Ninth Company on the 8th, the 235th Regiment would not have been able to organize such a large-scale and large-scale bombardment.

There was bad news from the artillery positions, after a burst of fire, there were only three shells left in the artillery.

In the evening, news finally came from Shangganling, who had been missing for almost half a day, that after a day of fierce fighting, there was little ammunition left in the tunnel, and only more than 90 soldiers remained in a reinforced company, including the wounded and seriously wounded.

The No. 7, No. 11, and No. 2 positions on the 597.9 Heights were lost, and the surface positions on the 537.7 Heights were all lost, with heavy casualties in the 1st and 9th Companies.

The political commissar asked the regiment commander, "The war has reached this level, do we still want to fight?" ”

The Ninth Company and the First Company were almost destroyed, three positions were lost on the 597.9 Heights, all the 537.7 Heights were lost, and there were only three shells left in the artillery positions.

The command post of the 45th Division in Zhencai-dong was set up in a large fortified tunnel, and when the division commander heard the news of the loss of the two heights, he immediately picked up the phone and said to the commander of the 135th Regiment:

"Commander Zhang, I know very well your current situation, it is very difficult for you to hold on to the defense without artillery support, but you have to calm down, plan carefully, and take advantage of the enemy's unstable foothold, immediately organize a counterattack force, and take back the position overnight!"

The regiment commander put down the phone and said to the political commissar: "Hit!" No matter how difficult the conditions are, this battle will continue! Let the 5th, 6th, and 7th companies carry weapons and ammunition through the enemy's shelled area and reinforce Shangganling! At 8 o'clock in the evening, launch an attack on the No. 2, No. 11, and No. 7 positions on the 597.9 heights, and let the soldiers in the tunnel cooperate with our army's counterattack! In addition, give me all the shells that can be used, whether it is mortars, mountain guns, or howitzers, to support tonight's counterattack! ”

When the order was issued, the commander of the Gao Company in the No. 1 tunnel received the combat order, and he immediately ordered: "Leave a combat group in each position, and the others pack up their weapons and ammunition, and cooperate with the Seventh Company to collect and pay for the No. 2 position tonight!" ”

"Yes!"

Company Commander Gao ordered the cooks, "Open some cans of foreign devils tonight and let everyone eat something good." ”

The cook nodded: "Yes!" ”

Company Commander Gao said again: "Leave the meat for the seriously wounded to eat." ”

This dinner is not very rich, but it is definitely the best meal that the soldiers have ever eaten, each soldier gets a piece of meat, with biscuits, vegetables, and drink some soup from the salty lake, this is the kind of dinner, the soldiers eat with relish, and the wounded who are not very convenient to move, Wang Lan feeds the soldiers little by little.

Sun Yuan sat in front of Xia Yuan, drank the soup, looked at Xia Yuan, and said, "Xia Yuan, in tonight's battle, the enemy's firepower will be handed over to you." ”

Xia Yuan took a bite of the biscuit, nodded and said, "Platoon commander, don't worry, the enemy's bunker and firepower point will be handed over to me to blast." ”

After dinner, the soldiers got together, after a day of fierce fighting, many fighters' guns were broken, they needed to replace with new weapons and equipment, the pit stored a lot of guns taken from the position, but there was little ammunition left, especially the consumption of grenades, 10,000 grenades were thrown on the first day, and there were only seven boxes of grenades left in the pit .

Seven boxes are not enough.

Company Commander Gao was worried: "The first day of battle alone consumed the ammunition that was intended to be used for a month, so how should the next battle be fought?" If there is such a battle every day, the casualty command is getting bigger and bigger. ”

At the same time that the company commander Gao was worried, Xia Yuan was also worried, after he had dinner, he squatted in front of the well he dug with his gun, there was no water in the well, but the humidity was already very high, but now he was in the midst of fierce battles every day, and he had no time to take care of digging the well, unless our army was transferred to the tunnel in advance to fight.

And now the order given by the superior is to defend Shangganling, and it is estimated that it will take some time to push the hand tunnel.

In this regard, Xia Yuan has no way, how can he dig a well with just a mallet and an awl, after all, this is not modern, with advanced drilling machines, drilling wells in the Shangganling tunnel, relying on manual labor.

The sky outside gradually darkened, and the roar of enemy planes could still be heard overhead, and the continuous bombardment of the rear of our troops could still be heard.

Sitting in the tunnel, you can hear the spreading roar.

Xia Yuan left the 'well' and came to the place where the ammunition was replenished, and a wounded man said: "Platoon Commander Xia, this is a large eight-grain magazine. ”

Xia Yuan looked up at the wounded, the wounded were leaning against the wall, his head and left eye were wrapped in bandages, one arm was missing, the blood was infected with the wound bandages, and his other hand was still able to move, just use that hand, a bullet by bullet, there were a lot of scattered bullets and bullet clips on the ground in front of him.

"You deserve a good rest."

Xia Yuan put away the magazine on the ground and stuffed it into the bullet bag.

The wounded man said firmly: "Although I am injured and one arm is missing, but I still have one arm that can move, you are all shining on the front line for the cause of defending the motherland, how can I rest in the tunnel, no matter how seriously I am injured, as long as I can still move, I will contribute my own strength to the great cause of defending the motherland!" ”

His tone was so firm, his will was so tenacious, and his eyes were so bright.

Xia Yuan looked at the other wounded in the tunnel, whether they were sitting or lying, there were magazines and scattered bullets around them, the tragic battle destroyed their bodies, but it did not shine their will, their will was harder than steel, and it was ten thousand feet higher than Mount Everest!

This is the red spirit that belongs to them.

"Assemble!"

The voice of the senior company commander came from the mouth of the tunnel.

"I'll take the bullets you pressed and kill more enemies!" Xia Yuan said firmly.

"Thank you, squad leader Xia."

When Xia Yuan left, he turned his head to look at the one-armed soldier again, he was holding a bullet, and he was still struggling to press the bullet into the magazine, often as soon as he exerted his strength, the magazine would run, and he put the magazine on his thigh, so that when he pressed the bullet, the magazine would not run.

Xia Yuan, who lives in modern times, has never seen such warriors, they may have sacrificed, but their spirit has become a bright red star, guiding us in the direction.

Xia Yuan still turned around and followed the assembled team to prepare to attack the lost No. 2 position.

He found that there were many new soldiers at the mouth of the tunnel, and squad leader Hu said: "This is the team of the seventh company of our regiment, that man's name is Feng Ji, he is the company commander of the seventh company, he was born as a machine gunner, he is very short-tempered, and he is very powerful in fighting tough battles!" ”

Xia Yuan glanced at Company Commander Feng, with scars on his dark cheeks, he looked fierce and vicious, he spoke in a loud voice, he said "his grandmother's legs" one by one, he was carrying a crooked handle behind him, and there were some bullet clips in the bullet bag on his body.

Company Commander Gao was discussing tonight's battle plan with him, and he suddenly shouted, "Xia Yuan! Xia Yuan! ”

The familiar or unfamiliar gazes of the crowd fell on him, and Company Commander Feng looked at him with a loud voice: "The sharpshooters and bombardiers of your company, last time he took a squad of soldiers to take down a company of the enemy at the cost of slightly injuring two soldiers. ”

Company Commander Gao nodded: "It's not him, tonight's battle, relying on him, is wrong to prepare." ”

Company Commander Feng waved his hand to Xia Yuan: "Come over and I'll take a look." ”

Xia Yuan walked through the team and stepped forward, Company Commander Feng looked at Xia Yuan, and couldn't help but praise: "Lao Gao, yes, this soldier is very energetic, he is a good seedling, and being a platoon commander is enough." ”

Company Commander Gao said: "Comrade Xia Yuan still needs to be sharpened and sharpened, but in today's battle alone, he has been able to obtain a combat hero, and today in the east of the No. 1 position, one person has killed at least three hundred enemies, and the enemy's corpses can be piled up into a mountain." ”

Company Commander Feng was surprised: "Weird! That's a big deal! ”

Company Commander Gao said: "What's more, wait for tonight's battle, you can just watch." ”

Night is a paradise for volunteers who are good at night fighting. At 20 o'clock on the evening of the 14th, when the sky was already dark, the 15th Army of the Chinese People's Volunteers took advantage of the fact that the 'United Nations Army' had just occupied the No. 2, No. 11, and No. 7 positions, and used all the artillery fire as support, and launched a counterattack on the 'United Nations Army' in the three surface positions occupied by Shangganling in four directions with the strength of four companies.

The roaring shells made a sharp whistling in the sky and landed on the surface positions No. 2, 11 and 7 occupied by the 'United Nations forces', and they bloomed everywhere, and because our artillery shells were not sufficient, the shelling lasted only two minutes, and the trumpeter blew the horn for a counter-attack.

The enemy's fierce artillery fire was resisting, and on the road of our army's charge, the enemy's shells were constantly falling, and in this continuous roar, the trumpet of the charge became more and more high, stirring people's hearts.

The task of counterattacking the No. 2 position was undertaken by the 7th and 9th companies of the 3rd battalion of the 135th Regiment of the 45th Division, while the commando team was assigned to the 2nd platoon of the 9th company. The task of the demoman was handed over to Xia Yuan, and Zhao Fengshou, who delivered the news to the No. 1 tunnel, asked the company commander Gao for his life, and temporarily joined the second squad with insufficient personnel as the demoman.

All the work of the sortie was done, the 7th and 9th companies had already touched the front of position No. 8, the enemy had built a large number of fortifications in position No. 2, and a round of shelling destroyed only part of the enemy's fortifications, as well as a large number of fortifications built by the enemy, and on position No. 2 the enemy had about the strength of a reinforced company.

In the craters left by the enemy's shelling during the day, the fighters of the assault platoon watched the enemy intently.

"Four machine-gun bunkers, more than a dozen machine guns, about the strength of a reinforced company."

Xia Yuan turned on his night vision and saw the enemy's defense on the No. 2 position clearly, and the distance between the two places was two hundred meters, and it was impossible to throw grenades, and long-range sniping might be.

He touched it, found Platoon Commander Sun, and said: "Platoon Commander, I can defeat the enemy's machine gunner, but it is a drop in the bucket to defeat the machine gunner, the enemy has more than ten machine guns, obviously it is too late, but we can take advantage of the gap between the enemy's replacement machine gunners and rush up, as long as I can get close to the enemy's bunker for a hundred meters, I can blow up the enemy's bunker!" ”

Platoon Commander Sun observed the front and thought about it seriously: "How sure are you?" ”

"Sure!" Xia Yuan cut the railway.

"That's it!

”

The counterattack began, Xia Yuan set up the big eight, aimed at the enemy's machine gun bunker, full of vigilant foreign devils, pulled the trigger, bang bang, continuous gunshots came out, bullets came out, poof, the foreign devils in the machine gun bunker could hear the sound of their companions' heads being pierced by bullets.

At the moment when Xia Yuan defeated the enemy's machine gunners, Platoon Commander Sun led the soldiers to rush towards the enemy with an unstoppable momentum, and when they approached the position of about 150 meters of the enemy's bunker, more than a dozen machine guns in the remaining four bunkers fired dense firepower, which frustrated the charge of the assault platoon.
