"Feng Ji! A new combat order was issued from above! Our army held the surface position, the casualties were too large, in view of the extent of the enemy's fierce attack, now relying on the tunnel, and the enemy counterattack operations! No more sending small troops to the surface of the position, refueling tactics need to change! ”

The regiment commander said: "Order the troops on the surface position to retreat to the tunnel and let the enemy ascend to Shangganling!" ”

Company Commander Feng immediately asked: "Regiment commander, retreat to the tunnel to fight, so we have to give up the surface position?" ”

The head of the regiment said: "No! On the contrary, relying on the tunnels, waiting for the enemy to occupy the high ground, and taking advantage of the fact that the enemy has not yet gained a foothold, carry out positional counterattack operations, so as to change the situation in which the defenders on the surface of our position are fighting with the enemy while withstanding the enemy's artillery fire! It can greatly reduce the casualties of our army! ”

Company Commander Feng immediately understood: "Yes!" Mission completion guaranteed!

”

"In addition, we must learn to make use of the tunnels, think more, every time the enemy retreats, he will bombard our surface positions, we must make good use of the gap between the enemy's retreat, the forward positions are far away from the tunnels, then abandon the forward positions, and under the condition of ensuring the safety of the lives of our soldiers, carry out the most effective blocking of the enemy."

"Yes! Commander, I see what you mean! We abandon the forward position, rely on the tunnel, when the local artillery comes, we hide in it, the enemy's artillery is gone, and we counterattack again! ”

"That's right! It is necessary to fight like this, although the surface position is important, but the life safety of the soldiers must not be ignored, and we must be prepared to fight the enemy for a long time! ”

"Yes!"

The enemy's shelling began at half past three yesterday and has continued until now, and this is only the beginning of the battle.

The enemy's artillery fire gave the commanders and fighters of the 15th Army a deep lesson, they thought that even if the enemy launched an attack on Shangganling, they would take the same attack as in the past, but they did not expect the enemy's attack to come so fiercely, the continuous large-scale bombardment has been carried out for two days, the casualties counted in each tunnel are shocking, but on the first day, the Shangganling defenders suffered more than 500 casualties, and this is only the beginning.

Along with the loss of various surface positions, the commanders and fighters understood that if they wanted to engage in long-term combat with the enemy, positional warfare could not be fought, and the price paid in positional warfare was too great, and once the enemy retreated, he would use artillery fire to bombard our army's positions, and the volunteer soldiers stationed in the forward positions would not have time to retreat at all.

After serious discussions, our army held that since it was in Shangganling, it should rely on the tunnels as the backbone and be prepared to fight a protracted war.

And on the third day, a message from the rear also made the command of the 15th Army think that this decision was right.

Due to the appearance of Xia Yuan, the general trend of the battle of Shangganling was changed, and it was originally three days after the battle began to know that the enemy's offensive target was Shangganling, but because of his appearance, he caught a big tongue of the American army, so that our army learned in advance that the enemy's offensive target was Shangganling.

After studying, the commanders specified a number of plans that existed in theory, and whether they were feasible or not would have to wait until the battle began to be decided according to the degree of the enemy's attack.

The battle of Shangganling suddenly started on the 14th, and it was expected and reasonable, since we learned that the enemy's attack target was Shangganling, our army strengthened the reconnaissance of the surrounding area of Shangganling, sent a large number of reconnaissance troops, and mastered some key information, but the enemy's fierce posture was still beyond the imagination of all commanders.

Only one day after the outbreak of Shangganling, all the surface positions on the 537.7 heights fell, and the 597.9 heights lost three positions, although the counterattack was recaptured on the first night, but also paid huge casualties, five companies, more than 500 casualties, and the battle on the second day was even more fierce, just one morning, the left No. 9 position, the No. 10 position was lost, the No. 3 position of the main peak and the dangerous, the right No. 7 position, the eleventh position, the No. 2 position, the No. 8 position was lost, and the No. 1 position and the dangerous position.

In addition to the positions on the ridge in the rear, there were also garrisons, and according to the information transmitted by the signal corps, only one platoon of soldiers capable of fighting in position No. 1 remained, and only one squad remained in position No. 3, and the rest of the positions could not deliver the news, and the enemy had blocked all the routes of the anticline.

In the face of such a situation, the commander immediately ordered the implementation of Plan No. 2, relying on the tunnel and using the tunnel to carry out a surprise counterattack against the enemy!

It can not only effectively reduce the casualties of our army, but also effectively destroy the enemy's living forces.

Just when the order was given, the battle on the No. 1 position had already broken out, and the last wave of the enemy's attack at dusk was violent, and before reaching the forward position, the enemy's tanks and machine gun vehicles had already begun to exert their strength.

After collecting a wave of bullets and grenades, the three people hid in the pile of enemy corpses that extended twenty meters forward from the forward position, and the bullets above their heads flew by continuously, and the three of them lay down in the pile of corpses and quietly stretched out their guns.

Basically, there is no combat plan, the number of people is too small, it is difficult to play a huge effect, the only thing that can be done is to take advantage of the advantage of the battle line, while fighting and retreating, the enemy's artillery fire was perfectly avoided by them, and then, they are faced with the enemy's crowd tactics, two consecutive days of Meng's attack, the enemy did not attack the No. 1 position, their commander must be angry.

The more this time, the more you can't let go, you have to beat the enemy to hurt, and you can scream out, and this battle can be regarded as a victory!

Xia Yuan took a deep breath and aimed at the soldiers in the enemy unit with recoilless guns on their backs.

Suddenly, he was surprised to find that the enemy's artillery offensive was gradually decreasing, and was disappearing, accompanied by sporadic shells falling on the position, he looked up at the sky, and sure enough, it disappeared, and the enemy's artillery bombardment was over.

"Things have changed!?"

Xia Yuan is not a new battlefield, and the end of the unreasonable shelling of the American artillery made him immediately startled. In the past, the enemy's artillery bombardment did not follow the advance of the infantry, but gradually extended to the rear, until the enemy's infantry was repulsed, and the artillery shelling covered the battlefield again.

And now, all of a sudden, the shelling stopped, and he felt a little uneasy.

At this moment, the sound of machine guns came from behind him, Xia Yuan's uneasiness was amplified, and he immediately turned around and found that a squad of soldiers had come up from the rear position, and he keenly found that the soldiers of this squad only carried guns and ammunition, and did not carry a large number of weapons and ammunition like the previous reinforcements.

"The situation on the battlefield has changed!"

Xia Yuan immediately shouted: "Sun Jiazheng! Wang Shu! Come back! Retreat now! ”

His surprise was confirmed, the soldiers of the squad who came were the soldiers of the second platoon, the squad leader looked at the only three soldiers left in front of him, his eyes were fixed, he looked around, saw the enemy all over the mountains, his heart sank, and immediately said: "It's too late to explain, the superiors ask us to retreat immediately!" Retreat to the tunnel! ”

"What!"

Xia Yuan couldn't believe his ears.

"The superiors ordered us to retreat to the tunnel!"

"Yes!"

The other party repeated it again, Xia Yuan took a deep breath, his eyes were red, he held the gun tightly, stared at the figure of the enemy rushing up, turned around and followed the soldiers of this squad to retreat to the rear.

Staying is revenge, retreating is discipline.

But he is a volunteer soldier, a soldier, and it is a soldier's duty to obey the orders of his superiors.

After a day of fighting, Xia Yuan dragged his tired body back to the tunnel, there were many soldiers in the tunnel, there were wounded from the Ninth Company, and there were also wounded from the first platoon of the Seventh Company, their bodies were wrapped with bandages, and the blood that flowed out was embellished with white bandages.

"It's down! The fighters at the front came down. ”

Wang Yongmeng ran in from outside.

When they heard the voices of the soldiers coming from the tunnel, they were originally sitting in the tunnel, and they all sat up with their injured bodies and looked at the mouth of the tunnel leading to the front line.

The wounded and the soldiers of the 7th Company surrounded them.

The wounded of the Ninth Company saw that one of the people who had been withdrawn from the forward position was very familiar, but they did not know who it was, this man was covered in dirt, the military uniform on his body was open, the cotton inside ran out, the skin on his face was open and black, and his hands were wrapped with dirty bandages.

The fighters saw that there were only three people coming down from the forward position, and they basically understood, and they lowered their heads and looked silent.

Company Commander Feng looked at the three people in front of him, his eyes were rosy, tears flowed down his face, he wiped the tears from his face, stepped forward to look at the three of them, and said solemnly: "You are heroes!" Well done you guys! None of them are a bad breed!

What I Feng Ji admire most is a warrior like you! Dare to fight! Just do it! ”

He shouted at the fighters who did not go to the front: "Look! This is the hero we worship! It was they who withstood the enemy's attack at the front! It was they who held our ground! It was they who made the foreign devils understand that we are not easy to mess with! ”

"The next battles, each battle will be more difficult, and every battle will be more brutal! But I hope you will be like all the fighters who are fighting on the front lines, with your own lives! With your own blood, to defend our country, to protect her, to cherish her! ”

"Because there is a country, there is a home!"

"It's time for us to go, little devil! Beat away the reactionaries! I finally lived a happy life, how can we let this group of foreign devils invade us again! No way! Absolutely not! ”

With bloodshot eyes, the warriors turned the grief in their hearts into motivation, and shouted in high spirits: "Absolutely not! Absolutely not! Absolutely not! ”

Company Commander Feng held his gun and shouted: "Second platoon, pack up your equipment and prepare for a counterattack!" Take our positions in one fell swoop! ”

The soldiers of the second platoon roared in unison: "Yes! ”

Xia Yuan pulled Company Commander Feng and said with a serious face: "Company Commander Feng, I also want to participate in the battle!" ”

Company Commander Feng looked at the soldier in front of him, a little familiar, and asked, "Are you, that combat hero of the Ninth Company!?" ”

Xia Yuan shook his head, "I'm not a combat hero, those who sacrificed are heroes." They all died, and I'm still alive, what kind of hero am I. ”

He said with some mockery: "I'm just a man who survived the battlefield." ”

Company Commander Feng stepped forward, stared at Xia Yuan's dark cheeks, and said: "The sacrificed are heroes, and the living are also heroes, watching the comrades around him fall in front of him one by one, this road is destined to become more difficult!" The slightest setback will knock you to a slump, so since the founding of our party to the present, so many comrades have left us, should we blame ourselves like you and slump down? ”

He stared at all the fighters: "The real heroes are sharpened from one battle after another!" They have a tenacious fighting spirit and an indomitable will to fight! They are our role models! Our pride! It's our goal! ”

Company Commander Feng's gaze fell on Xia Yuan: "You are a hero, but you have experienced too few battles and too few things, I think, if your platoon commander and company commander are still alive, looking at you like this, how sad will they be?" The sacrificed soldiers will not die in vain, they will charge a lamp in front of our road, this lamp, is to guide those who are confused, to show us the way, to remember their teachings, to remember their appearance, to hold our position. ”

"Pack up your weapons and ammunition and get ready to follow the second platoon."

Xia Yuan gritted his teeth, and the faces of Instructor Lin, Company Commander Gao, Platoon Commander Sun, Squad Leader Hu, and Deputy Squad Leader Li kept appearing in his mind, and the soldiers of the first squad, the soldiers of the second squad, and the soldiers of the Ninth Company, those faces that had won the battle and had smiles on their faces were still imprinted in their minds.

Their words kept ringing in their ears: "Hold your ground!" ”

"I understand, thank you Company Commander Feng!" Xia Yuan nodded heavily.

"It's good to understand, they sacrificed, but they didn't sacrifice in vain, we should inherit their will and spirit, and defend what is behind us!"

Company Commander Feng held the gun and shouted, "Replenish ammunition!" ”

At this moment, the wounded stood up one by one, some from the ninth company and some from the seventh company, they looked at Company Commander Feng and shouted: "Company Commander Feng, we are also going to the battlefield!" We have to act too! Please allow us to follow you in the action, fight back together, and take back our position together! ”

Company Commander Feng turned his head and looked at the wounded people with injuries and bandages, their bodies were injured, but their spirits were still tenacious and high, and with time reasoning, they were constantly squeezing in their hearts, turning into a mass of motivation to push out.

With tears in his eyes, he shouted in the noisy tunnel: "Comrades! I can understand your feelings about asking for battle, but now we are not dead, the position has not been lost, our hope is still there, we can't let you go up to die, if the battle really goes to that extent, you will be the second echelon! ”
