Chapter 37: Behind enemy lines

Company Commander Lei immediately asked for battle: "Battalion Commander Li, I want to ask for battle, the first company will take charge of the main attack task, our first company has rich experience in attacking fortifications, we will definitely pull out this high ground!" ”

Battalion Commander Li said: "No, you serve as the second echelon, and the third company serves as the third echelon, and the second company is fighting fiercely, and now withdrawing is to give the enemy time to breathe." ”

After a pause, he said again: "By the way, you platoon leader, he is a good old comrade, and it should be better to send him up." ”

Company Commander Lei suddenly kept his head shut down, and Instructor Shao said, "Battalion commander, when we were coming, the platoon commander was shelled by foreign devils."

"Sacrificed?"

Battalion Commander Li sighed: "How could such a good old comrade be sacrificed." ”

Instructor Shao was a little crying and laughing, and said: "Battalion commander, there is no sacrifice, he took a squad of soldiers to stay to deal with the foreign devils who blocked us, but at a critical time, the platoon commander led people to take down the enemy's blocked position, but did not return to help, but continued to attack the mountain, which is an unauthorized action." ”

Company Commander Lei was angry when he mentioned it: "If he is here, we can sacrifice some comrades less, drop the chain at the critical moment, and continue to go up the mountain with people, so far we have no news of him, whether he is dead or alive, we don't know Lao Shao." ”

Battalion Commander Li comforted: "Such a capable soldier is very rare in the army, we should understand more, but then again, acting without permission is indeed a taboo in the march, it stands to reason that an old soldier like a platoon leader would not make such a mistake, could it be that he found something, but due to the urgency of time, he didn't have time to say it." ”

Company Commander Lei thought for a moment and said: "Battalion commander, I have also thought about this matter, but no matter how close the matter is, it is not a reason for him to act without authorization, if it is because of his unauthorized action that more soldiers are sacrificed, I will definitely not spare him easily!" ”

"The situation on the battlefield, you have to be improvised, okay, let's not talk about this matter first, when the platoon leader comes back, I want to meet him."

Battalion Commander Li said: "Let's talk about the 336 Heights first, the superiors ordered us to capture the 336 Heights within two days, at all costs, the 336 Heights is a position that the foreign devil troops must pass through, take it, we can rely on the 336 Heights, contain the foreign devils to aid the troops, it is of great significance, our battalion at this stage, the casualties of each company are not small, and we may not be able to hold on to the 336 Heights, as commanders and fighters, you must have a preparation to live and die with the position at any time." ”

Company Commander Lei and Instructor Shao looked awe-inspired, and said, "Battalion commander, rest assured, we are ready to sacrifice for the motherland!" ”

Battalion Commander Li nodded and said, "You all go and prepare." ”

The reinforcements of a company actually did not bring much change to the attack on the 336 heights, this level of siege, does not mean that a large number of people can change the situation of the front line, that will only increase unnecessary casualties, and the 336 heights are already easy to defend and difficult to attack, and the large number of people will only make the offensive road bloated, and it cannot change too much.

At this time, the offensive was basically based on the squad and platoon, which was quite a refueling tactic in the battle of Shangganling.

Company Commander Lei observed the 336 Heights with a telescope and said: "Such a high ground is not friendly to us, to the south, the terrain is relatively flat, to the north, but it is a lofty mountain, the mountains are steep, easy to defend and difficult to attack, the gap between the front and rear is huge, even if we really lay down the enemy's level, whether we can withstand the enemy's attack, is still a huge problem." ”

Instructor Shao said: "War is like this, Lao Lei, what should the old mother of your family do?" ”

Speaking of the old mother at home, Company Commander Lei's heart sank, he said: "Lao Shao, don't tell me about this matter, and don't mention it in front of the soldiers, so many soldiers went to fight in Korea, aren't their relatives worried about it?" They died in North Korea, aren't their loved ones sad at home? I sacrificed, my old mother will understand me, I sacrificed for the peace of the motherland, but I can't give her old family filial piety. ”

On the front line, a soldier who rushed to the enemy's bunker with an explosive bag fell under the enemy's gun, and some wounded soldiers dragged the explosive bag and wanted to crawl over, but before they could get close to the enemy's bunker, they were shot and killed by foreign devils on the mountain.

"Man, this group of Chinese is really not afraid of death, they don't even have a cannon, they want to use their bodies to resist our bullets, are they joking?"

"How many did you kill?"

"I can't remember exactly, eight, or nine."

"Look at the muzzle of my gun, it's already red, they want to continue to attack like this, and before they can hold on first, my machine gun can't hold on."

"Bullets, I need bullets, damn it, they're rushing up again."

"Hahahaha, let them go to God, God will not necessarily see them."

The sound of the American soldiers in the bunker was heard, and the GIs controlled the heavy machine guns and fired at the volunteers who were constantly charging down the mountain, with sharp mockery in their tones, and the roar of artillery fire and the continuous strafing sound of heavy machine guns were intertwined, which was the most beautiful movement in the world for the American soldiers.

The Chinese in their eyes are ignorant and backward, and in the face of heavy machine guns, they actually try to use their bodies to resist, which is unbelievable to many American soldiers, but it is more mockery, trying to use their bodies to resist bullets, which is a very stupid behavior.

The foreign devils will not pity these Chinese at all, they control heavy machine guns, constantly sweep the Chinese who rush up, and watch them fall one by one, which is the most exciting for them, and the second company and one platoon at the cost of a whole platoon are exchanged for the enemy's forward position, and then it is the enemy on the mountain that is even more difficult.

The second platoon replaced the first platoon and continued to attack the top of the hill, they divided the fighters into demolition squads in battle groups, and launched a continuous charge against the enemy's bunker in groups of groups, they fell, and the fighters in the rear rushed up again, and the bullets pierced their bodies and shattered their flesh and blood, but they could not destroy their will.

"What about mortars, what about Bazooka?"

"The baggage team hasn't caught up yet, where do we have shells."

The fighters received an order to quickly go to 336 with light equipment, and the baggage detachment and the comrades of the field hospital walked together, they had to take care of the wounded on the one hand, and on the other hand to transport the heavy baggage, and on the other hand, they had to be vigilant against the aircraft overhead to prevent the enemy planes from spotting them, and in such a situation, the baggage detachment was far behind the front team and was seriously disconnected.

The casualties of the troops attacking the 336 heights are getting heavier and heavier, and even if they have broken through the forward positions, if they want to completely take the 336 heights, they will probably have to pay even more casualties.

As the casualties on the front line continued to be transmitted back to the battalion headquarters, Battalion Commander Li put the casualty report on the ground and said: "336 Heights, we must take it, even if we fight out a battalion, we must capture 336 Heights!" ”

His gaze was steadfast, and orders were everything, even if everyone died in battle!

At this moment, in the rear of the enemy, the fighters of the two combat groups have quietly approached the enemy's artillery position, and several mortars and a group of American devils are constantly stuffing shells into the mortars, and one shell after another is sent to the sky by them and falls on the road where the volunteer soldiers charge.

Xia Yuan gestured and issued the order to attack, the soldiers of the two combat groups opened their bows left and right, got out of the dense grass, held the submachine gun and aimed at the American devils holding the ammunition, those American devils saw the volunteers coming out of the grass, their brains seemed to be short-circuited, stunned for a few seconds, and their bodies were pierced by the bullets that came from them, and they fell heavily to the ground.

As soon as gunfire rang out in the rear, the American troops on the front line suddenly became chaotic.

"Let's go!"

Xia Yuan shouted, crouched in the grass, holding the big eight grains, and continuously pulled the trigger to the American devils he saw in his sight, one American devil fell to the ground, Wu Ping shouted: "The platoon commander is playing beautifully, let's go too!" ”

Under the cover of Xia Yuan, he rushed out of the grass, quickly occupied a bunker, and pulled the trigger on the American devil who fell to the ground and was not yet dead, after making up a few shots, he began to shoot at the American troops in the distance, and the three soldiers on the right side got into the grass again, quietly disappeared, but bypassed where the American troops could not see, while Xia Yuan and they stayed in place to attract the attention of the American troops.

When the U.S. military reacted, they didn't attack at the first time, but shouted 'Move!' Move! 'Retreat back.

"Platoon commander, the foreign devils didn't rush up, they were running!"

Wu Ping, who retracted his body, shouted.

"Then chase!"

Xia Yuan rushed out and gestured to the rear.

Zhou Xingyong willed, got out under the cover of the two, passed through the two, rushed to the enemy's artillery position, looked around, and continued to advance.

Suddenly, an American devil who pretended to be dead on the ground stood up and wanted to snatch the gun in Zhou Xingyong's hand, Zhou Xingyong was shocked, seeing that he couldn't react, and the gunshot behind him rang out, the head of the American devil who had just stood up was shot through, blood mixed with the liquid of white flowers splashed, and the dead body fell to the ground.

Zhou Xingyong exhaled and looked back, Xia Yuan put down the gun and gestured to him, signaling him to move on, Zhou Xingyong, who received the order to continue advancing, was more careful, he stared at the corpses of the foreign devils on the ground, and after making sure that he saw the blood holes made by the bullets on them, he continued to move forward.

Finally, he touched the trenches of the enemy's rear position, raised his arm and waved a forward gesture to Xia Yuan and Wu Ping in the rear, Xia Yuan turned his head and looked at Wu Ping and said, "You advance first, I will cover you." ”

After seeing Xia Yuan's terrifying reaction speed and accurate marksmanship, Wu Ping was full of confidence in their platoon commander, and quickly moved forward with the gun, and after Wu Ping arrived at Zhou Xingyong's location, he immediately entered the battle state and occupied the favorable terrain.

Xia Yuan only then began to move, and when the three of them met, he said: "The enemy has no idea of resisting, they have abandoned the rear position, this is a good thing for us, as long as the enemy retreats without a fight, then we only need to continue to intersperse, all the way to the enemy's forward position, and then we can let the frontal attacking troops hit." ”

"Platoon commander, what do you say, we'll follow you." Zhou Xingyong couldn't hide the excitement in his heart, they didn't play interspersed tactics once or twice, but every time they interspersed it was very difficult, like this time, it was simply easy.

All this depends on Xia Yuan, with the blessing of Eagle Eye and Hearing Position, no one can be more sensitive than him, even if the enemy is disguised in secret, he can't escape his keen insight, along the way, Xia Yuan took them all the way interspersed, bold actions, all the way to the rear of the enemy, at this time they found that the enemy basically did not arrange any defensive forces in the rear, not even a firepower point.

This is clearly not taking them into account.

Easily breaking through the enemy's artillery positions and breaking all the way to the enemy's rear trenches, they were like a nail, deeply rooted in their rear.

The company commander of the US army received that Chinese appeared in their rear, and their artillery was also knocked out by the Chinese, and the company commander in the command post was furious and scolded the soldiers defending behind: "Fuck, you didn't watch such an important place in the back, and you lost the artillery position, you are a group of pigs!" ”

Taking a deep breath, suppressing the anger in his heart, "Immediately organize the soldiers, drive them away, can't let them run to the front position, the forward position has been beaten down by the Chinese, if the Chinese in the back run over, then we can only abandon the position here." ”

β€œYes,sir!”

The American platoon commander in a crooked steel helmet immediately ran back and mobilized a squad of soldiers to follow the crooked trench and touch the rear.

Lao Yang and his two fighters had already touched the flank of the enemy's position and hid in an anticline, and the situation on the enemy's position was in full view, including the American soldiers who were moving to the rear.

"This foreign devil is going to Lao Xia." Lao Yang stared at the enemy's position, then looked at the hoarding pit hidden in the trench in the middle, and said, "Have you seen that antenna, it should be the headquarters of foreign devils." ”

"Lao Yang, what do you say we are going to do, we listen to you." A veteran said, holding a gun.

"There are two classes of foreign devils, one is a firepower point, and one class of foreign devils goes to the back, we are not in a hurry to fight their headquarters now, the three of us are going to fight, it's too risky, let's go and cooperate with Lao Xia first, eat the foreign devils in that class, and then take Lao Xia and them here."

Lao Yang retracted his body and said, "Let's go, let's go around to the side of that group of foreign devils, and when they fight with Lao Xia, let's catch this group of foreign devils off guard from the side." ”

The three of them went around again, but the road around was relatively far, on one side was the cliff, which was a place where the foreign devils had never fortified, and now it was an important route for them to take a detour, and after walking for two minutes, they heard a rumbling sound from the rear, which was the sound of a grenade exploding, followed by the gunshot, which was extremely intense.

"Speed up, Lao Xia has already handed them over."
