Chapter 62: One Man's Night Battle!
"Lian Commander Xia, drink less water."
The correspondent came to Xia Yuan with the boiled water and said in a low voice.
Xia Yuan opened his eyes, looked at the unclean water in the tea jar, took a sip, moistened his chapped lips, closed his eyes and said, "Let the wounded go and drink some." β
The correspondent said: "Company Commander Xia, the instructor arranged hot water for the wounded, just in the next pot, you have experienced two days of fighting, basically have not drunk water, the instructor and Company Commander Dai said, let you replenish it." β
He added: "Moreover, the battle has not yet been won, and the body cannot collapse first. β
Xia Yuan opened his eyes, only then did he take a small sip of it, and said: "Let the other fighters also drink some, replenish and replenish, the battle is going on to this extent, all the resources must be evenly distributed to each warrior, and there can be no special." β
A seriously wounded man spoke: "Company Commander Xia, you just drink more, we don't have the ability to continue fighting, you don't drink more, we feel uncomfortable drinking." β
"Yes, Lian Commander Xia, you can drink some more, don't worry about us."
"We're still able to hold on."
The other wounded opened their mouths one after another, persuading Xia Yuan to drink more.
Xia Yuan's heart was full of emotion, so he said, "Then I'll drink some more, and you can drink the rest." β
"Hey."
Xia Yuan took the hot water, took two sips, handed the teapot to the seriously injured beside him, the seriously injured took the teapot, took a sip, and handed it to the people around him, went around in circles, and when he came to his side, there was still a lot of water left in the size of the teapot.
He was even more moved in his heart, although there is a water source in the tunnel, but it is not enough for the soldiers to drink at will, all the materials are strictly controlled, and now the enemy has blocked the rear, the materials cannot come up, the materials in the tunnel are very precious, especially the canned materials captured from the American army, which are very precious.
Xia Yuan looked at the dark night outside the tunnel, and the enemy's searchlight swept over the mountain from time to time, thought about it seriously, handed the teapot to the communicator, and said in a commanding tone: "Let the wounded drink this jar of tea, this is an order!" β
He picked up his gun, got up and found Company Commander Dai and the instructor who were fetching water, and said, "Company Commander Dai, instructor, I am ready to fight at night!" β
"Night combat?"
The two put down what they were doing and looked up in surprise.
Company Commander Dai asked, "Company Commander Xia, do you already have a plan of action in mind?" It's just that there are not many fighters who can fight in the tunnels at present, and the positional combat is already very reluctant, and the night battle is likely to lead to more sacrificed fighters, so we should wait for reinforcements from the rear to arrive. β
Xia Yuan sat on the ground, "The enemy's actions are very fierce during the day, but at night, their offensive efficiency will be greatly reduced, not only the offensive efficiency, but even the combat effectiveness has decreased a lot, and the night is the home of our army, I plan to intersperse behind the enemy to see if I can find an opportunity in the enemy's rear." β
The instructor said: "No, this is too risky, Company Commander Xia, I can understand the feeling that you want to kill the enemy, but the danger of this matter is too high, you need to think about it carefully." β
"Instructor, I was able to annihilate a reconnaissance company of the enemy with the fighters of the reconnaissance squad before, and I was naturally able to return from behind enemy lines with the fighters."
Xia Yuan said seriously: "We should give full play to our strengths and avoid weaknesses, otherwise we will not be enough to fight." β
The battle on the 19th day alone had already consumed seventy-seven eighty-eight of the soldiers of the Eighth Company in the tunnel, and under his circumstances, according to today's enemy's offensive, if he had not been there, the No. 1 position would probably have been lost.
Judging from the documents sent by the regiment headquarters, at present, most of the positions on the 597.9 heights of Shangganling have been lost, and the fighters in the other tunnels are constantly organizing a counteroffensive at night to launch an attack on the highlands that have been lost in Shangganling, and the sound of the enemy's heavy machine gun fire is still echoing between the valleys, accompanied by the sound of large-caliber artillery shells, intertwined and floating over the valleys.
Company Commander Dai thought seriously, "Instructor, what Xia Yuanshang said is not completely unreasonable, the No. 1 position is barely held, but the other positions are still in a state of loss, if we can use the No. 1 position to reinforce other positions, it may be a good thing." β
Immediately, he became distressed again, "But now that the soldiers in the tunnel are all injured, and their combat effectiveness has been greatly weakened, it is not easy to reinforce other tunnels." β
Xia Yuan thought about it and said, "Instructor, leave this matter to me!" β
Instructor: "Company Commander Xia, this is not child's play, in case..."
Xia Yuan said: "Instructor, how can there be a battle without casualties, I will also die, but how much of a role I can play before I die, this is unknown, staying in the tunnel, it is just a later sacrifice." β
Company Commander Dai sighed: "We will live, we will hold out until the day of victory." β
Xia Yuan looked at him from afar: "I hope so." β
"Then let's discuss the battle plan for the night." The instructor agreed to Xia Yuan's proposal, as Xia Yuan said, how can there be no sacrifice in battle, if you don't sacrifice now, it's only a matter of time, and when they are needed, they will also stand up resolutely.
"It's up to me to do this, the plan can't keep up with the changes, and even the best plan will make mistakes when it comes to action."
Xia Yuan touched the gun in his hand, his eyes were firm, "Company Commander Dai, instructor, I will come back before dawn." β
After speaking, he carried the gun and came to the ammunition supply point, Wang Lan had not slept yet, she was counting the number of medicines, and after the counting, her face showed a trace of sorrow.
Xia Yuan walked in, put the grenade on himself, and filled the bullet bag on his body, and picked out a brand-new Garand rifle to carry behind him.
Seeing this, Wang Lan asked, "Lian Commander Xia, are you planning to go out?" β
Xia Yuan nodded: "I'll go and see the situation of other positions, and by the way, touch the enemy's deployment at the bottom of the mountain." β
Wang Lan said: "Company Commander Xia, the number of medicines in the tunnel is not much, the medicine of the foreign devil is about to be used, the injuries of the soldiers are not healed, and the medicine cannot be stopped, if you see the hygienist of the foreign devil, kill him and snatch the medicine from him." β
Xia Yuan agreed without thinking about it, this was not a problem for him.
After experiencing the enemy's bombardment, the frontal tunnel almost collapsed, but fortunately, the soldiers rushed to repair it in a very timely manner, and some lightly wounded people completely joined the ranks of rushing to repair the tunnel, and after clearing the tunnel, they dug trenches and communication ditches on the No. 1 position.
As the fighting continued on other positions, the enemy's artillery did not open fire on Shangganling, which gave the No. 1 position a little respite.
As soon as you get out of the mouth of the tunnel, you can hear bursts of gunfire from the ridges on both sides, and you can even see the enemy's bullets forming a long chain of fire, hitting the opposite side of the mountain, which is particularly spectacular, and the fiery red fire chain seems to pierce the night.
Both Android and Apple are available. γ
The warriors in the tunnels are fighting bravely and tenaciously against the enemy.
Xia Yuan glanced at it from a distance, with the help of powerful night vision and eagle eyes, through the hazy gunsmoke, the situation on the No. 8 position was clear at a glance, "Attacking the position, it is a bit of a symptom but not a cure." β
Xia Yuan looked at the bottom of the mountain, under the night vision, the entire Shangganling was like daylight, among the rocky cols, the enemy's logistics troops were transporting boxes to the mountain, which was the enemy's logistics supply team, after the enemy captured the position, it would contact the rear to deliver supplies to the mountain.
Between lightning and flint, Xia Yuan made a choice, cutting off the supply line of the enemy's No. 8 position and seizing the enemy's supplies.
The logistics supplies transported by the enemy to the mountains were only a platoon of units, and more than 30 people carried or carried large boxes, which were filled with supplies for the garrison on the mountain.
"Defeat the enemy's material team first, and then touch the No. 8 position to assist the fighters in the No. 8 pit to complete the counterattack."
Xia Yuan's eyes moved, and he cautiously leaned towards the enemy's logistics and transportation troops with a gun.
In fact, there is not only one logistical transport force of the enemy, and after the US army occupies part of the high ground in Shangganling, it will transport weapons, ammunition, medicine, and food to the troops that have already occupied the high ground; with the continuous harassment and attack of the volunteers, the enemy's material consumption and wounded in the surface positions are constantly increasing, and they cannot transport them down the mountain in a short time, so they can only transport some medicine to the mountain first.
Due to the abundance of weapons and ammunition, the average amount of weapons and ammunition consumed by foreign devils per person is three to four times that of volunteer soldiers, especially the ammunition of heavy machine guns, foreign devils can hold the position of Shangganling, and the vast majority of them rely on the machine gun bunkers on the Shangganling position to continuously strafe, plus the foreign devils do not know how to cherish the ammunition, and the machine guns continuously spray tongues of fire, which is undoubtedly huge for the ammunition consumption of heavy machine guns.
βshitοΌ Do the people on the mountain eat? This has already been delivered three times! β
In the logistics unit, a foreign devil complained that he heard from a distance the unique sound of their heavy machine guns echoing in the valley on the top of the mountain, and the crisp explosions of 60 guns were endless, and he secretly cursed in his heart that the front line was consuming ammunition so fast that he himself did not have time to rest.
"Calm down, man, in order to take the triangle mountain, for the sake of victory in the battle, so that we can go home early, bear with me."
One soldier reassured that he was carrying a heavy box containing shells for 60 mortars, and that he was panting incessantly as he spoke.
The lieutenant let out a hearty laugh, "Onis is right, we will be able to go home when the battle is over, don't you miss your ......?"
Whoosh, a bullet suddenly burst over, the lieutenant's voice stopped abruptly, and his body fell heavily to the ground, a group of big-headed soldiers watched this scene dumbfounded, knowing that the sound of gunfire came from a distance, they were shocked, and immediately threw the box in their hands on the ground to find cover.
Bullets whizzed through and hit the body of a big-headed soldier with precision, and they felt like they had been whipped down, and their bodies trembled and fell heavily to the ground.
Gunshots rang out from afar.
βfuckοΌ The enemy is in the southeast! Shoot! The adjutant shouted, picked up his gun and pulled the trigger in the direction where the gunfire was heard, and the bullet whizzed through the mountains, but they didn't know where it was fired, and in fact they didn't even see the enemy.
More than twenty soldiers quickly pulled the trigger, and the submachine guns clattered into flames.
Whoosh... One bullet after another suddenly came from another direction, hitting the foreign devil lying on the ground, some of them were killed by one shot, and some of them let out a scream, only then did they hear the gunshots spread, and the sound changed direction.
In a short period of time, five soldiers were killed, eleven soldiers died, including their lieutenant was also killed by the enemy, and the adjutant instantly lost the mind to fight, shouting: "Retreat!" Fall back! β
If it weren't for the need for supplies on the high ground this time, and the airdrop could not be accurately dropped after dark, who would like to send supplies to the garrison on the mountain at night, after all, the volunteers are known as ghosts in the night, and many convoys have been attacked by the volunteers in the night, and many logistics soldiers have left shadows, and they are not willing to send supplies at night.
No, thinking that the high ground had been occupied, I made an exception to send it once, but I didn't expect to encounter the volunteers so soon.
And in one shot, they were killed by more than a dozen soldiers, half of them were killed and injured at once, where did the frightened foreign devils dare to continue to stay here, they didn't even care about the supplies on the ground, and dragged the wounded down the mountain with guns.
At this time, Xia Yuan was still making a detour, and when he touched a shooting point, and when he looked at it again, the more than 20 boxes of materials left by the enemy had all run away.
One thing to say, this group of foreign devils is also righteous enough, from Changjin Lake to the present, he has seen too many pictures of foreign devils who failed to attack, leaving the wounded and escaping, although this group of foreign devils is cowardly, they also know that they are with the wounded.
Xia Yuan put away the gun funny, thinking that it would be a thrilling battle, but he didn't expect to shoot sixteen bullets and beat the enemy away.
He looked at the top of the mountain, the movement here did not attract the enemy, the front line is fighting, even if the gap is reached, looking down from the mountain, it is drowsy, and he can't even see a figure, and there is a high probability that he will think that he has seen a ghost.
Xia Yuan ran down quickly, didn't look at what was in the box, first hid the box in a ditch, and quickly touched the top of the mountain with a gun.
The number of foreign devils on the No. 8 position is about one battalion, and with the strength in the tunnel, it is not enough to repel the enemy on the mountain, what can be done is to constantly use small forces to attack and harass, we don't sleep, and you don't want to sleep well.
The soldiers in the No. 8 tunnel were the soldiers of the second platoon of the eighth company who had seen them before, and after the counterattack on the night of the 17th, the soldiers of the second platoon suffered huge casualties, and the No. 8 position was also the fastest to lose.
There were seven wounded in the tunnel, and only four fighters were left who could fight, one squad leader and three ordinary soldiers.
