Without the Koreans as cannon fodder, their casualties increased sharply, the number of machine guns on the top of the hill was too large, with the strength of a battalion, it was difficult to attack, and the focus of their large forces was on the pursuit of the Chinese army, such a company would not allow the Americans to send a regiment of troops with a large number of artillery to attack.

Achs, who knew that he could not take the Chinese army on the high ground, was angry in his heart, and a sense of powerlessness rose in his heart, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese was too strong, and the continuous attack of the two battalions did not take advantage of the slightest.

With the flight of the South Koreans, Akers also gave up the idea of continuing to attack the Chinese positions.

The actual strength of a battalion of US troops is only seven or eight hundred, and the rest are all various types of troops.

In two successive attacks, Akes found that the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army on the top of the hill was really strong and terrifying, and usually they attacked the Chinese's position, sending a company, or half a battalion of troops, even if they could not be defeated, the casualty statistics after retreating were only a few dozen.

But this time the troops sent up to the top half of the battalion, the casualty rate reached a terrible two-thirds, the platoon commanders of the battlefield commanders were all dead, none of the walkie-talkie soldiers came down, there was almost a squad of heavy machine gunners involved in the battle, and only two came back, and the flamethrower had an incredible explosion, which indirectly led to huge casualties in the team, which was simply terrifying.

Akes was shocked by the strong fighting power of the Chinese on the top of the mountain, and at the same time felt incredible, he had experienced World War II, the casualty rate of World War II was even lower, tens of thousands of bullets killed one person, but the situation on the Korean battlefield was far beyond his imagination, and the casualties reached the highest in history since he joined the army.

Surprising and unbelievable.

Although Axes didn't want to admit it, he had to admit that their opponent was incomparable to any army in this world.

On the nameless heights.

The fighting enthusiasm of the soldiers was unprecedented, and they all looked at the man who was walking a little lame, just in the battle just now, he relied on a semi-automatic rifle, shot the battlefield commander of the US army, suppressed the enemy's heavy machine gunners, and the US soldiers carrying the canisters exploded, causing heavy casualties.

The enemy retreated in defeat without even touching the forward position, and the South Korean army retreated even faster, incredibly fast, and the American army still made a symbolic resistance before retreating.

There has never been such a simple battle.

"See, the American devils are paper tigers, and our weapons are up, so they can't do anything about us."

Xia Yuan laughed loudly, in a heroic mood.

"The company commander is mighty!"

The fighters shouted.

Yang Nanzhen smiled happily on the side, he had never been so happy, the victory in the battle made everyone unprecedentedly happy, he believed that after such a special battle, the combat enthusiasm of all the fighters of the machine gun company would reach a new peak.

"The U.S. forces won't attack anymore, and when the sun sets, we'll go after the big force."

Xia Yuan looked at Yang Nanzhen with a smile on his face.

They stayed here for a day and repelled four or five attacks by the American and South Korean troops, and the gunfire of the battle attracted the volunteer soldiers who had fallen behind and lost their way nearby, and the strength of the company had grown from 80 or 90 to more than 140 people, and it had reached the size of a reinforced company.

Xia Yuan and they also learned from these soldiers that many of the positions of the troops blocking in the rear had been lost, and many companies and positions had coexisted and died, and they were watching from a long distance, unable to do anything, they wandered among the mountains and forests, looking for their main force.

Along the way, they saw too many soldiers being pursued and shot by the enemy, and just when they were gradually discouraged, they suddenly heard the sound of gunfire coming from here, and then they came over, and saw the company that was still resisting, and the joy in their hearts was irrepressible.

The gunfire of the battle with the enemy can let them know that there are still their own troops resisting, and there are still their own troops there.

What they were afraid of was that the whole forest was quiet, not to mention the sound of gunfire, and even the sound of American artillery could not be heard.

Yang Nanzhen smiled and said, "Listen to you." ”

Xia Yuan smiled, didn't speak again, organized the soldiers to clean up the battlefield, the Americans and Koreans dropped a large number of weapons and equipment and ammunition, the soldiers put the ammunition collected on the battlefield in boxes, put it on the position, and looked at the position full of gunsmoke, and saw the American troops in the distance digging trenches and bunkers on the high ground opposite.

"Hey, how is this American devil like a stick, and he has also started digging trenches on the high ground opposite."

Wang Huzi looked at the high ground in the distance, and a surprised expression appeared on his face.

Wu Liang said: "Maybe the U.S. military wants to open up, and they have given up attacking us." ”

The soldier on the side said: "It's not impossible, the stick didn't hit us, it wilted after two hits, this American devil probably learned from the stick, and we didn't beat us twice, and we wilted." ”

"Hahahaha, it's okay, this shows that they were hurt by us."

The warriors gathered in groups of three or five, lying on the mound of dirt and looking into the distance.

Listening to the voices of the soldiers, Xia Yuan smiled and said to Yang Nanzhen: "The soldiers are still very optimistic. ”

"That's not it, you led them to such a big victory, whoever is not happy, I am happy." Yang Nanzhen said: "Compared with the current victory, it is nothing, if you look at the corpses left on our position by American devils and sticks, it is estimated that there must be two companies." ”

Xia Yuan looked at it, the corpses that were blown up, the tattered and blood-stained clothes were everywhere, scattered on the forward position, the dazzling bright red and the miserable white broken bones came into view, he had long been accustomed to such bloody pictures, war, such pictures were the most common.

"We have to be ready." Xia Yuan said calmly and continued: "The current battle situation is different from before, in fact, the sudden decrease in pressure on our body has something to do with the breakthrough of the 180th Division, the 180th Division broke through, and the enemy's center of gravity was placed on the 180th Division, and the blocking troops behind were basically the size of a company, at most no more than one battalion, as long as the commander of the US army was not a fool, he would not work our blocking team." ”

Yang Nanzhen looked up at Xia Yuan and said, "The analysis is very reasonable, the gunfire around is almost gone, and it is estimated that we are left." ”

Xia Yuan nodded, smoking a cigarette, full of thoughts.

The next road, in addition to finding a large force, continue to stay here, and when the large army breaks out, the US army will begin to pack them up. Although fighting guerrillas can solve the problem, Xia Yuan doesn't know if he will return with the success of the 180th Division's breakthrough.

If they return, then what should they do in Yang Nanzhen.

"Company commander, I'm back." Hao Guangjiu and Wu Ba climbed up from the ravine, exhausted and panting.

"How's it going?"

"Company commander, no enemy troops were found nearby, the previous South Korean army has disappeared, it is estimated that it was used as cannon fodder by American devils, just like the imperial army."

Hao Guangjiu said happily: "The devil has also given up the attack, we can stay in peace for a while." ”

"Heh, these foreign devils probably thought that we would continue to consume with them, and when it was night, as soon as it got dark, we would run." Wu Ba also said happily.

"Let the fighters go to rest, and by the time we get to this evening, we'll see the start of the transfer."

"Yes!"

At dusk, the slanting sun shone on the distant mountain peaks, crookedly sprinkled a piece of gold on the nameless plateau, the ground after the enemy shelled exuded a warm heat, some of the tree stumps destroyed by the shells still emitted a faint white smoke, and the corpses of the American soldiers were placed on the hillside, white and red reflected each other, dazzling and dazzling.

The warriors on the hill were exhausted and leaning in the trenches, sleeping with their guns in their hands.

From time to time, US reconnaissance planes flew overhead, and the soldiers woke up with a shudder, raised their worried eyes and looked into the distance, and when they saw that the US planes flew over their heads and did not drop bombs, they turned over and continued to sleep.

The fighters were just too tired.

A lot of guns and ammunition were placed in the trenches, which repelled the attack of the South Korean army and the American army, they took a lot of guns from the enemy's corpses, and captured a lot of light machine guns, light machine guns alone, can be formed into a machine gun squad, not including their heavy machine guns, the number of heavy machine guns has reached six, enough to build a powerful machine gun fire network.

"The U.S. military is really rich, and after fighting a few companies, they have actually got so many light and heavy machine guns, which are more powerful than the previous machine gun companies."

Yang Nanzhen said with emotion that the machine gun company had only seven or eight light machine guns, two or three heavy machine guns, and a few mortars at its most glorious time. Where is it like now, with their current combat effectiveness, it is enough to confront the firepower of a battalion.

"Then we will fight as we go, and we will capture more weapons and equipment, even tanks."

Xia Yuan smiled and looked up at the sky.

The sky has gradually darkened, and the pursuing force of the US army may have passed them, and I don't know if the 180th Division has broken through now, and what is the current situation of Division Commander Zheng.

Xia Yuan had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

Night.

Darkness covered the highlands.

The fire rose on the opposite side of the American army, which was especially conspicuous in the dark night, swaying with the wind.

Xia Yuan turned on his night vision and hawk eye, looking at the American troops in the distance, with a calm face, he saw that the commander of the American army was in the machine gun fire bunker, observing their position with a telescope, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

"I'll give you a gift later."

Xia Yuan muttered.

"Company commander, it's all done, you can go over and take a look."

Hao Guangjiu ran over with a smile on his face.

"Let's go!"

Coming to the rear, a group of warriors were weaving straw figures from branches and blades of grass, and the weaving was vivid.

There are quite a few of them, more than thirty.

"It's okay to look like a person, there's no need to be so detailed, the U.S. military can't see clearly." Yang Nanzhen was on patrol, and when he saw Xia Yuan coming, he smiled and said, "Look at what's going on." ”

"That's good, clean up and tie these straw men to the position." Xia Yuan nodded in satisfaction.

"Is there any plan of action for later?" Yang Nanzhen asked very curiously.

"Hehe, Instructor Yang, since we are retreating, we have to surprise the foreign devils."

Xia Yuan had an inexplicable smile on his face, "Let's go, let's go and see how Wang Huzi and the others are preparing." ”

When they came to the position, Wang Hu and the others were carrying a pile of clothes and going to the trenches.

In the trenches that connected the vertical and horizontal lines, there were piles of clothes, and more than ten meters apart, there was a pile, and dry branches were placed below. Seeing that the company commander was coming, Wang Huzi and the others greeted: "Company commander, look at it, we have almost done what you said." ”

"That's enough, that's enough, put those straw men around the position, light the campfire in the trenches, you go around the campfire, and then pack up your things and prepare to withdraw."

Xia Yuan said with satisfaction.

Wang Huzi and Wu Liang were stunned.

"Company commander, let's leave?"

"Withdraw!"

Xia Yuan pointed in the direction, "Retreat over there!" ”

Wang Huzi glanced at it, and his face showed joy: "Hey, company commander, you wait." ”

The first and second rows were already waiting at the foot of the mountain, and the third platoon led the soldiers to dig the prepared straw man into the soil, and a soldier squatted on the ground and patted the bottom of the straw man with his hand to tamp the soil underneath.

Call!

The flames ignited the clothes taken off from the corpses of the American soldiers, and the black flames rose and soon burned.

"Withdraw!"

After doing all this, Xia Yuan waved his hand and retreated from the position with three rows of soldiers.

U.S. military positions.

Akes had just withdrawn from the machine-gun bunker and returned to the command headquarters, and the stool on his ass had not yet been warmed up, when an American soldier burst in through the gate.

"Commander, you should go out and see, the Chinese have lit many fires on the positions."

“？” Achs grabbed the clothes he had just taken off, hurriedly walked out of the headquarters, through the crooked trenches, to the machine gun fire bunker he had just observed, and even if he did not look with a telescope, he could see a few fires flashing on the Chinese position.

He immediately picked up his binoculars and looked, and there were quite a few figures around the flickering firelight.

"The Chinese even lit a bonfire." Akers had a puzzled look on his face: "Aren't they afraid to reveal their position?" ”

"Sir, maybe they don't think we're going to attack their positions." The soldier beside him said.

“fuck！” Akers cursed, not that he did not want to attack the positions of the Chinese, but that the current conditions did not allow it, there was no support from long-range artillery, and there were no tanks and armored vehicles, and the only heavy fire was mortars and heavy machine guns.

All things being equal, his soldiers are not at all opponents of the Chinese.

Akers observed for a while and sighed, this group of Chinese was too bold to provoke them so much.

Thinking about it, Akers couldn't swallow this breath, the US military is the greatest army in the world, and China is the most backward country in the world, and they were provoked by the most backward country in the world.

Akers contacted his commander, who agreed to send a detachment of tanks and armored vehicles to support him.
