Chapter 72: Arming

Xiao Sun's tears rolled silently, many injured comrades almost all had the same mentality as Comrade Xiao Sun, when they were alive, they fought with the enemy, desperately, were seriously injured, could not move, lying on the bed, not only needed to be taken care of, but also wasted a few medicines.

They are all warriors with a very high ideological consciousness, and not only does this not give them a feeling of the aftermath of their lives, but they are suffering.

The real heroes died with the enemy with grenades, but the living were under great pressure and suffering.

Li Mengqi from the beginning of the war, the field hospital received the wounded one after another, more and more such soldiers appeared, many times, they thought that they were alive because of the drag on the troops, few were willing to stay in the hospital, especially when they knew that there were not many medicines in the hospital, they rushed to let the nurses give the medicines used on their bodies to other comrades first, save others first, and more people just wrapped a bandage, and wanted to leave the hospital and return to their positions.

How lovely such a warrior is.

With such fighters, why not win this war.

"Comrade Xiaosun, you can eat with peace of mind, and when your injuries are healed, you will go to the battlefield to protect our country."

Li Mengqi said encouragingly.

Comrade Xiao Sun hesitated before raising his head and willing to eat, but he no longer had lower teeth, and the food needed to be chewed and sent to his throat, and then swallowed by himself, Li Mengqi took the initiative to help Comrade Xiao Sun, helped him chew the food, and then put a spoon on Comrade Xiao Sun's throat, just like that, Comrade Xiao Sun ate a bowl of food into his stomach little by little.

Li Mengqi sat aside, looking at Comrade Xiao Sun, and then at the other comrades on the hospital bed, some comrades turned pale and quickly twisted slightly, as if they were suffering a lot, but she herself could not do anything.

At this time, she saw Master Zheng.

"Master Zheng is here!"

Li Mengqi stood up excitedly, not alarming the other comrades, for fear that they would get up when they heard that the division commander was coming, and they needed to rest.

She ran to the division commander and said eagerly: "Teacher, why are you here!" ”

Master Zheng made a silent gesture and said, "I'll come and see everyone, Comrade Xiao Li, how is the condition of the wounded?" ”

Li Mengqi said: "Division commander, there is no medicine, many comrades are gritting their teeth and persevering, there is no anti-inflammatory medicine, many comrades' wounds are festering, some are inflamed, and they have a high fever. ”

Division Commander Zheng said: "This time, we have brought a lot of medicines seized from the US military, and we have asked the translator comrades to translate the medicines, and I believe that it will not be long before the soldiers can use the medicines." ”

Li Mengqi said excitedly: "That's great, with medicine, many comrades can survive!" ”

"Yes, the comrades have worked hard, they are all good, and they have made great sacrifices for the motherland and the people."

Master Zheng looked at the figures lying on the bed under the grass shed that had been erected, in addition to being distressed.

This batch of medicines came in a really timely manner, how many soldiers' lives were saved, and when the war is over, I must meet the platoon commander of the first battalion.

The line of sight came to the first company, the battalion headquarters directly under the team and the guard squad will assist the first company to deploy the Jiuluan Mountain to the 393.1 heights, each unit was stationed on some of the upper heights of this line, and the first company was stationed on the 393.1 heights, when they first arrived here, the highlands were overgrown with weeds, the grass and trees were vigorous, and the terrain in front was very flat and the slope was gentle.

"With such terrain, the enemy's tanks can drive halfway up the mountain." Company Commander Lei observed the terrain on all sides, and couldn't help frowning, it was difficult to deploy defenses on such a terrain.

"Maybe we're going to have to open some anti-tank trenches right in front."

Instructor Shao squatted on the ground, swept the weeds on the ground with his hands, grabbed a handful of soil, the ground was hard, the soil was cold to the hand, and sighed: "This ground is hard, and it is not easy to dig fortifications." ”

The two of them frowned.

In the rear, a company of soldiers was actively digging fortifications and bunkers, the ground was too hard, the sapper shovels dug vigorously, making a clanging sound, the tiger's mouth hit the pain, and the ground dug a half-man-high trench.

Tightly, it's almost dawn.

"Hurry up!"

Xia Yuan shouted, his face couldn't stop worrying, according to this trend, it won't take long for the enemy's tanks and armored vehicles to drive over, how long can they hold out with the strength of one platoon, because the front position of the 180th Division is too large, even if three regiments form three lines of defense, the strength of a position is only one company at most.

According to this trend, it is estimated that the defense line of Tongguli will fall in less than a day.

He also didn't have a very good way, large-scale corps operations, the gap between the two sides is particularly obvious, not through tactics can be made up, let alone through a company interspersed with detours, once the battle starts, they may all die in several rounds of enemy charges.

The geographical location of Shangganling is special, and there is a tunnel as a cover, the enemy's shells fall on the Shangganling position, as long as they hide in the tunnel, they can live alive, and use the tunnel to counterattack, the difficulty is nothing more than a tactical arrangement, the surface position of Shangganling is small, and it can only be reinforced by a squad and a platoon through the 'refueling tactics'. There is a constant supply of troops in order to keep fighting the enemy.

And the positional warfare he is now facing, when there is a shortage of troops, ammunition, food, and medicine, and the geographical location is not good, how to start a positional war with the enemy is tantamount to hitting a stone with an egg.

War is brutal, especially with such a huge disparity in power between the two sides.

"Lao Xia, are you starting to worry again?" Lao Yang ran over with a shovel, took off his hat, wiped the sweat on his face, sat next to Xia Yuan, fanned the wind with the hat in his hand, and asked happily.

"Well, don't worry about it, it's not okay, we're just a little person, how can we resist the enemy's attack, even if we block it, how many people can be alive."

Xia Yuan looked up at Ma Da and Chen Lie who came over.

Chen Lie said: "If you can't stop it, you have to block it, and if you sacrifice it, you can't let foreign devils step over." ”

Ma Da smiled: "Lao Xia, I think it's better for you to take us to engage in a sneak attack, when the foreign devils attack, they will definitely have to line up the artillery, this is not our opportunity." ”

"Not every sneak attack goes as smoothly as we did that night." Xia Yuan shook his head and said: "We have a regiment of the enemy in front, and around the enemy of this regiment, there are two divisions of the US army, the gap in numbers is too big, we want to penetrate it, it is not easy, and we leave now, this line of defense will soon be scattered by the enemy, and even cause the flanks of the troops deployed on our sides to be exposed." ”

Xia Yuan sighed slightly and continued: "If we leave, the foreign devils will be more unimpeded. ”

"Grandma, then them!" Ma Da grinned, the ammunition had been supplied, the ammunition was also replenished, the ammunition for the heavy machine guns was also available, and even the battalion headquarters arranged for comrades from the machine gun company to set up a mortar behind them.

Since there is no way to intersperse guerrillas, then it's over!

The sky was dark, and in just over an hour, it would be dawn.

Company Commander Lei and Instructor Shao returned from surveying the terrain, and the results of this survey of the terrain were not ideal, the frontal terrain was open, and the enemy's tanks were very likely to drive to a position two kilometers away from them, which was equivalent to putting the muzzle on their faces.

As soon as the two of them talked about the situation, Xia Yuan thought about it, raised his head and said, "Company commander, I have a way." ”

Lei Lian said: "Let's talk about it." ”

"We dug pits in positions where the enemy might drive tanks and armored vehicles, took anti-tank grenades, and when the enemy's tanks came up, we hid in the pits and blasted the enemy's tanks. All we need to do is lay a layer of branches and weeds on top of the pit. ”

The method proposed by Xia Yuan is not impossible, if an ambush is set up in advance, the enemy will really not find out.

Everyone thought that this method was feasible, but then there was a huge problem, that is, the execution of this task was completely lifeless, although it could blow up the enemy's tanks and armored vehicles, and indirectly put itself in the enemy's position, surrounded by the enemy.

"Who's going to do the job."

Company Commander Lei asked.

"Company commander, let me go, when I was fighting the reactionaries, I bombed the enemy's tanks, I know the weaknesses of the tanks, and I promise to blow up one accurately!"

"Let me go! I've also blown up the tank, and I successfully blew it up, the spicy one next door, the tank is not a big deal, isn't it just an iron bastard, an anti-tank grenade can send it to the West Heaven, and it's not that I haven't hit it, I didn't hit ten tanks of foreign devils before, let alone ten, it's ten more, and I don't have to be cowardly! ”

In the face of the lifeless task, no one was afraid, and one by one the soldiers approached and asked for battle.

There is no return, and the warriors know in their hearts that they just want to leave the opportunity to live for others.

Seeing that the soldiers were so active, Xia Yuan, as an old soldier, couldn't fall behind, so he said: "Company commander, let me go, I have rich combat experience, good marksmanship, and the grenade is accurate, the anti-tank grenade, as far as I throw it, I can guarantee that as soon as the foreign devil's tank approaches, I will be able to reimburse it!" No one is more suitable to go than me. ”

Lao Yang's expression tightened, and he hurriedly said: "Company commander, I'll go too, go into battle, brother, I've been coming with Lao Xia for several years, this mission is very dangerous, let the soldiers stay behind, let's go in person!" ”

Chen Lie raised his head and said, "I'll go too, I'm the same as Lao Xia, I have good marksmanship, although the grenade can't be thrown far, but I can cover their retreat." ”

Ma laughed: "Grandma's, it's all gone, I can't stay behind, I'll go too." ”

"What are you going to do, people don't need so many." Xia Yuan glanced at Ma Da and said, "What's more, the injuries on your body are not healed yet, and it is inconvenient to move." ”

"Don't go." Chen Lie didn't say so much, and looked at the old horse calmly.

Instructor Shao thought for a while and said, "You still stay in the rear, they go on a mission, don't go to make trouble, and talk about it when your injuries are healed." ”

Ma Da bowed his head and muttered: "Anyway, I also participated in the action last night." ”

"Okay, don't complain, last night's situation was special, today's situation is different, we have to face the menacing US army, their tanks, armored vehicles, the situation is very different, you stay in the position."

Company Commander Lei quickly made arrangements, "Xia Yuan will lead the team, Lao Yang, Lao Chen, as well as Sun Changgui, Tan Zhanbiao, Zhou Xingyong, you go together, Xia Yuan, do you see if there is anything else that needs to be arranged?" ”

Xia Yuan said: "The number of anti-tank grenades is limited, so there are not so many people, and it is not good to have too many people, six people, two combat groups, just right." ”

"Platoon commander, we want to go too." Wu Ping and Wang Xiaoliang held their guns and couldn't help but say.

"Stay in position, it's an order."

Xia Yuan said.

"Yes!"

The two were extremely reluctant to stay.

Instructor Shao glanced at his watch, looked up at the sky again, and the sky facing east was already full of white belly, and said, "Without further ado, let's leave now." ”

It's almost dawn.

With the assistance of the soldiers, they carved out five Tibetan pits in the open field halfway up the mountainside, and because the number of anti-tank grenades was limited, there were only seven, and the number of people in action was set at just six, and two combat groups, each of which was more than 20 meters apart, were in the shape of an inverted triangle, and each pit was just enough to accommodate one person.

When they got inside, they pounced on it with branches and weeds and leaves, revealing only an eye-sized slit for observation.

"Let's retreat."

The voice of a warrior was heard in his ears.

Company Commander Lei and Instructor Shao hadn't left yet, and they didn't seem to be at ease, so Company Commander Lei explained: "You must protect yourself." ”

"Got it, company commander."

Xia Yuan responded in the hidden pit: "You guys hurry up, don't let the foreign devils find out, maybe they are on the road now." ”

"Good!"

Company Commander Lei looked at the direction in the distance, then immediately got up and left here, and after returning to the position, he brought a telescope and looked into the distance, but after looking for a long time, he found nothing.

"The Scout hasn't returned."

Putting down the binoculars, Company Commander Lei asked.

"I haven't come back yet, either I haven't found the enemy yet, or I'm on my way back."

Instructor Shao sat on the ground, clutching a handful of soil, uneasy, and didn't know why.

Company Commander Lei didn't say anything more, grabbed the binoculars and ran to a tree standing on the position, beckoned a few soldiers, pushed him to climb the tree, and looked into the distance.

In the distance, mountains are connected to each other, the vegetation is vigorous, lush, the camera turns, and there are potholes, the trees are blown up, the vegetation on the ground is blown up, the ground is full of bullet impact points, that area has been bombed, the road in front is the only way for the US military, and the defense line they formed is also to keep an eye on the road.

The road was quiet, full of impact points, and no enemy troops were found.

"It's not quite dawn yet." Company Commander Lei jumped off the tree, pointed to the road in the distance, and said, "Lao Shao, you are watching here, I will take people to bury some mines on the highway now." ”
