Chapter 25: The Second Row That Can't Advance or Retreat
Moreover, he has already exposed his position, and the shells of the US army are falling around him one by one, and using artillery to deal with snipers with accurate marksmanship is the most correct way.
Xia Yuan's pressure can be called huge, the volunteers in the Shangganling period have already experienced two years of the Korean War and have rich experience in fighting with the US army, and most of the 180th Division is the first time to confront the US army, especially the enemy's strength is still above itself, and it is expected that a platoon of soldiers will be suppressed.
The war was not a personal performance, even if he sniped the bunker of the American army, but the enemy's several cannons behind the mountain caused them great trouble, relying on the mortars to bring it, the original knocked out bunker sounded again, Xia Yuan himself has been exposed, and other soldiers can't help at all, and the whole line is in a state of suppression.
There was no progress on the left and right flanks, so that the enemy's center of gravity could be placed entirely on the front, and after breaking through to the forward position, their pressure did not decrease, but increased.
The first time he fought with the U.S. army, a platoon of soldiers was blinded by the enemy's firepower, and the commander of the Lei company, Xia Yuan, led a squad of soldiers to almost break through the enemy's forward position, and suddenly got stuck there again, unable to advance or retreat.
Chen Lie saw that the frontal battlefield had already lost the upper hand, and immediately spoke: "Company commander, I ask the third platoon to participate in the battle!" ”
Company Commander Lei retracted his gaze and said: "The enemy's firepower is very fierce, and the terrain is not conducive to our army, you must be careful when you go up, in addition, bring the Bazooka supported by the regimental headquarters, a platoon has been dragged by the enemy for too long, if you don't open the enemy's defense line again, wait until dawn, and want to attack again, it will be difficult." ”
During the day, the U.S. Air Force was able to carry out precision bombing, which was not conducive to the actions of the volunteers. At least at night, once a war starts, the US Air Force will not be able to distinguish between friend and foe and will not dare to bomb rashly.
"Yes!"
Chen Lie stood upright, immediately retreated, and his voice came from afar: "Three rows, set off immediately, support one row!" ”
"Yes!"
A platoon has been locked in a bitter battle.
The left and right flanks were suppressed by the American army, the central Xia Yuan was blocked by the enemy's artillery fire and could not advance or retreat, and Lao Yang and the others were under the threat of the enemy's heavy machine guns, and with submachine guns alone, they could not tear apart the enemy's defense line at all.
In addition, the enemy's position was already easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the front of the platoon was facing the strength of a company of the US army, even if this company was attacked by volunteer artillery fire for five minutes, even if there were casualties, it was still difficult for the platoon to break through.
"Damn, the enemy's firepower is fine, but it is just due to the terrain, it can't be attacked, it can't retreat, and the left and right flanks are completely suppressed and can't work."
Xia Yuan scolded secretly, in the final analysis, it was the terrain reason, the front of their attack was like three single-plank bridges, if you overlook the first piece of high ground from a high altitude, it was like three fingers, both sides were steep cliffs, three or four meters high, they could only attack the enemy from the ridge, the enemy was completely able to block this ridge with a bunker, not to mention that the ridge extended to the top of the mountain, forming an open field, which led to the enemy's bunker being able to disperse, and their attack could only rely on this ridge, and then on both sides, and they will fall down the mountain.
Such terrain is simply a nightmare for attacking.
In front of him and behind him, even if the soldiers were scattered enough, the enemy's artillery fire was vented all around, and the shrapnel of rubble was scattered everywhere, and the earth was raised, still causing a lot of casualties on the soldiers.
They had crossed the ridge and reached the edge of the mouth, but they were blocked by enemy fire, and the enemy on the left and right flanks was able to flank them, and if the first and second squads on the left and right flanks did not break through, they would always be here, unable to advance or retreat.
The arrival of the third platoon relieved the pressure on them, and Chen Lie's voice floated from behind: "Old Xia, I brought Bazooka." ”
With a boom, the cannonballs exploded beside Xia Yuan, the soil splashed, and a string of hot bullets floated over his head, and the swishing sound made people's scalps tingle.
"Don't come up, go to the left and right flanks to help the first and second squads, just open any breakthrough on the left and right flanks, and the enemy on my side will be self-defeating!"
It's not that Xia Yuan can't beat him on the front, it's just that the left and right enemies are free to suppress him, and the enemies on the left and right flanks are in a position where he can't hit, resulting in the enemy being able to easily suppress them three shifts, but they can't fight back.
On the other hand, the enemy's firepower is fierce.
This can also be understood, a few days ago, just experienced the first stage of the fifth campaign, the American devils who have suffered losses make such a mistake again, it is no different from a fool, knowing that the pressure on the ass is great, it will inevitably arm its ass, only three high ground less than a few miles apart, almost next to each other, the strength of the enemy's battalion is stationed, you can see the determination of the US army this time.
It is necessary to quickly open up the situation at hand.
Chen Lie, who heard Xia Yuan's voice, immediately asked Bazooka to support the left and right wings, and he placed a squad of soldiers behind Xia Yuan to help Xia Yuan's third squad relieve the pressure in front of him.
In the second row, Ma Da heard the fierce gunfire from the frontal battle and the flares rising from the sky in the distance, and knew that Lao Xia had led a platoon of people to fight with the enemy, and immediately urged the soldiers: "Speed up, we must quickly touch the back of the enemy's buttocks." ”
Suddenly, a flare swished up above their heads, and in an instant, the entire world was illuminated, and the battle formation of the second platoon was suddenly exposed.
Ma Da was shocked, and looked around, but he didn't understand where the flare came from.
Thoughts turned, and a series of bullets suddenly strafed down from the back hill, and the hot bullets sank into the second row, and several soldiers were pierced by bullets, and their cotton clothes were stained with blood, and they fell to the ground heavily.
"Lao Qi!!"
"Comrade Xiong Wen!"
Cries of grief came.
"Hidden!"
Ma Da reacted and threw himself on the ground with his gun.
In an instant, poof, the bullet exploded above his head, the dirt splashed all over his face, and Ma Da yelled: "What's the matter, how can there be enemy flares here!" ”
"Platoon commander, we have touched the lighting mines planted by the enemy!"
One of the fighters shouted.
Ma Da was shocked, and looked around, except for the barbed wire fence that had been destroyed by them before, where there was a shadow of a mine, what he didn't know was that this kind of flare could not be buried in the soil at all, and it was also a lack of experience that caused them to be hit by the enemy's lighting mines.
The enemy's heavy machine guns looked down on them, and as soon as Ma Da raised his head, another barrage of bullets swept in, and the bullets sank into the mud, making him eat a mouthful of mud.
Suddenly, the sky sounded the scream of cannonballs across the sky, and two cannonballs fell on the ground above Ma Da's head, and the air wave almost lifted his hat away, Ma Da reached out and pressed his hat, and scolded: "Damn, here is still more than 100 meters away from the mountain, and it is a rugged mountain road, we are now suppressed here, there is only one platoon, and there is no heavy firepower, how to attack it!" Take your life to fill it!? ”
Overhead, the enemy's two machine-gun bunkers formed a crossfire, only one platoon, it was absolutely impossible to fill with life, and there were American soldiers on both sides of the bunker to assist in covering, and they only had submachine guns in their hands, once this distance was far, the bullets of the submachine guns did not know where to go.
Even if you hit the enemy, how can you threaten the enemy in the bunker?
"No matter, up!"
When the earth rolled up by the shells fell, the enemy's heavy machine guns stopped noisy, and Ma Da took aim at the opportunity, shouted, and rushed forward with his gun, and the enemy bullets strafed the road in front of Ma Da Man.
"Old horse! Take cover! ”
The deputy platoon commander of the second platoon was taken aback and hurriedly shouted.
Ma Da fell down on an anticline, spit out the soil in his mouth, and bared his teeth: "Grandma's, you have to hit it, if you can't hit it, there are two rows on the front, how can you beat it down!" ”
Ma Da is still worried about the frontal battlefield, and he has already encountered the attack of the US army behind him, so what kind of situation does the frontal enemy present.
Suddenly, he heard a deafening roar in front of him, separated by a mountain, all spread so far, Ma Da Man's heart became more and more eager to attack the mountain, but he was eager to return to eagerness, he also understood that if there was no attack plan, a blind attack would only cause huge casualties.
He immediately shouted: "Lao Tzu go and blow up the bunker, you help me attract firepower!" ”
When the deputy platoon commander heard this, he was shocked: "No, the enemy's firepower is too fierce, and it is condescending, plus the mountains and terrain here, the night attack is fine, if it is a strong attack, it is difficult to attack it only by relying on the strength of one platoon!" ”
They are facing the 311 heights, the mountains are steep, easy to attack, as early as before, they have observed, if they can attack it, the mountain will suddenly open up, the two sides are at the same level, the combat ability of the volunteers is much higher than the US army, this is undoubted, then the victory must also belong to them.
But I'm afraid I won't be able to attack it.
The second platoon shouldered the task of interspersing, but it did not think that the division was disadvantaged, and just after touching the foot of the mountain, it touched the flare mines left by the enemy, and the flares jumped into the air, and their battle formation was suddenly exposed, and the enemy's heavy machine guns were on the top of the mountain, and they were completely blocked in the col.
Ma Da was calm and grinned: "What should this special lady do, attack, can't attack." Retreat, but you can't retreat. ”
The deputy platoon commander looked around, and there was no good way in his heart, the enemy's bullets were constantly whizzing down from the top of his head, and the two bunkers on the mountain were completely able to form two crossfires, blocking the access road of the mountain col, and the mountain was quite steep, and it was impossible to advance or retreat for a while.
The fighters could only withstand enemy bullets and hide behind cover.
A platoon of three squads, after trying several attacks and losing a few soldiers, the support of the third platoon finally arrived, and also carried a sharp weapon Bazooka, Zhou Xingyong burst into tears with excitement, he said: "Lao Sun, don't be afraid of your jokes, I have attacked the enemy's two bunkers seven or eight times, but I can't beat them, the enemy's geographical location is too good, the two bunkers are like guarding the gates of these two mouths, and many soldiers have been sacrificed and have not been able to knock down." ”
Squad leader Sun is the squad leader of the second squad of the third platoon, he saw that there were only eight or nine wounded soldiers left in Zhou Xingyong's hands, just a simple bandage, and still insisted on the position and never retreated, his heart was solemn, and said: "We are late, put up Bazooka, and bombard it fiercely towards the bunker of foreign devils!" ”
"Yes!"
The soldiers of the second squad of the third platoon were moved by the comrades of the brother unit, clenched their fists and glared at the enemy's bunker, and a soldier touched it, held a black bucket, and asked a soldier to help him carry it on his shoulder, stuffed rockets, and aimed at the bunker that was spraying tongues of fire in the distance.
Shout!
A rocket fired at the enemy's bunker at an unseen speed, accompanied by a loud roar, and the flame-spraying machine-gun bunker vanished as the ground shook.
The fighters cheered in unison.
The warrior who controlled Bazooka pursed his lips tightly and muttered as he reloaded his ammunition, "Don't worry, there's still a bunker." ”
He aimed at the bunker in the distance, and suddenly there was a whistling sound overhead, and he was startled, and hurriedly pressed Bazooka under him, buried his head in the earth, and with a few roars, the cannonballs exploded beside him, and the earth almost buried him.
"Help!"
Squad Leader Sun was startled, and hurriedly pulled the soldier out of the soil, and grabbed a piece of hot and humid mud with his hand, he lowered his head, and under the light of the flares, it was a piece of blood-stained soil.
"Dong Shiwei! Dong Shiwei! ”
The movement of his hand was faster, pulled Dong Shiwei out of the soil, and patted Dong Shiwei's dirty face with his hand.
Dong Shiwei opened his eyes: "Squad leader, Ba, is there anything wrong with Bazooka?" ”
Squad Leader Sun glanced at it, his eyes fell on Dong Shiwei's stomach, and his voice trembled and said, "No, it's okay, how are you, hygienist, hygienist." ”
"Squad leader, I'm fine, there's a bunker, let me, blow it up."
"No way!" Squad leader Sun continued to shout: "Hygienist! ”
"Squad leader, if you don't blow it up, there will be more fighters to sacrifice, Bazooka, I used it well, there is little ammunition, if it misses, it will be wasted."
Dong Shiwei supported his body, looked at the exploding cotton clothes and bloody wounds on his stomach, endured the pain in his heart, got up and trembled and stood up with Bazooka, but he couldn't lift his strength, he wanted the squad leader to help him, a mouth, blood flowed.
"Dong Shiwei!"
Dong Shiwei didn't speak, he struggled to carry Bazooka, and squad leader Sun hurriedly put down the gun in his hand and said, "I'll help you!" ”
He held Bazooka and looked at Dong Shiwei who was trembling, his eyes turned red all of a sudden, and Zhou Xingyong clenched his fists even harder, staring at the fire that was being sprayed in the distance, suppressing the soldiers' bunker.
Dong Shiwei raised for a while before slowly pulling the trigger.
Shout! With a rocket that could not be caught by the naked eye, it was shot out, accompanied by a violent explosion, Sun squad leader hurriedly looked up, only to see that the enemy's bunker had been shrouded in fire, and he said excitedly: "It's done, it's done, the enemy's bunker was blown up by Dong Shiwei!" ”
Seeing the enemy's bunker explode, Dong Shiwei grinned, blood dripped down his mouth and fell to the ground, his eyes gradually dimmed, and he fell to it.
"Dong Shiwei! Dong Shiwei! ”
