Chapter 182: The Hardest Shield

"You're still laughing at me, hahahaha." Xia Yuan couldn't help laughing.

Both of them looked a little miserable, their faces were dark, they were grinning, and their big white teeth were particularly obvious.

"It's a pity, the foreign devils surrendered quickly, otherwise there would be no one left."

Yang Nanzhen was a little disappointed in the capture of some of the surrendered American troops, and knew that he would let the soldiers shoot quickly, not giving them a chance to survive.

Xia Yuan asked: "How many foreign devils have been caught?" ”

Yang Nanzhen shook his head: "More than a dozen." ”

"We have to break through, keep them easy to expose their position, we can't keep it."

Xia Yuan thought for a while and said, "Let's talk about preferential treatment of prisoners, but the current conditions can't give them preferential treatment, so let them go." ”

"Released?"

"Yes, it's useless to keep them, it's easy to expose our location, kill them, we will make a mistake, just let them go."

"Wouldn't it be easier to expose our location if we let it go?"

"We have now hit Eagle Peak, and the location has long been exposed, what I'm worried about is what these American troops are doing when we attack."

Xia Yuan knows some routines in the TV series, although this is reality, but art comes from reality, and there may be some accidents.

Strangled the accident that might happen in the cradle earlier.

"By the way, let's see if we can get useful information from them, and then tie them to a tree on the road."

"Oh yes."

The two chatted for a while, and a scout ran over.

"Battalion commander, division commander looking for you."

"Okay, I got it." Xia Yuan nodded, and then explained to Yang Nanzhen, and said: "Clean up the battlefield, let the soldiers replenish some more ammunition, and then dig trenches according to that specification just like we did on the nameless heights, if the division commander and they move closer to Eagle Peak, we need to hold on to the nameless heights." ”

"Okay, I see."

Yang Nanzhen answered, staring at Xia Yuan, and asked, "Battalion commander, are you worried about something?" ”

The two have been working together for a while, and Yang Nanzhen can see that as long as Xia Yuan has something in his heart, his expression will become different, with a hint of heaviness, which is completely different from when he seized weapons and equipment and formed a reinforced machine gun company at that time.

Xia Yuan nodded silently and said: "I really have something in my heart, I'm worried that the 180th Division won't be able to wait for the troops to respond, and we must be ready to fight a vicious battle." ”

"Isn't the development of the machine gun company to its current scale just to be able to help the 180th Division one day? Battalion commander, I now know in my heart, no matter what the next situation is, we must be the hardest shield of the 180th Division! ”

Yang Nanzhen looked at Xia Yuan, his eyes flashing with determination.

The soldiers who cleaned the battlefield saw the lame figure, and they would shout 'Hello Camp Commander Xia', no way, the current 540 regiment, Xia Yuan is already an existence that everyone knows and everyone knows, his deeds are spread very widely, very fast, after a battle, almost everyone knows that Xia Yuan has pulled up a strong machine gun company with his own strength.

His deeds were even spread by some warriors.

Fortunately, the soldiers are all staunch materialist warriors, believing in red in their hearts, and not believing in the reincarnation of immortals at all, bulls, ghosts, snakes, and gods, if the only feudal superstition they show is probably the hope that they can see their old comrades-in-arms below.

Listening to the outrageous discussions of some soldiers from a distance, the corners of Xia Yuan's mouth couldn't help twitching, he wanted to talk to the division commander, don't let the soldiers discuss how he eliminated a battalion by himself.

It's somewhat outrageous.

In fact, it may not be impossible for Xia Yuan to deal with a battalion.

As long as he is given enough weapons and ammunition, it may be possible, but the rumor is a bit outrageous now, because he has not yet achieved that level.

"Division commander, did you hear the rumors in the regiment? It is said that I can stop thousands of troops by myself. Xia Yuan found Master Zheng and couldn't help complaining.

"Hahahaha, look, what am I talking about?" Master Zheng smiled and said to Captain Liu on the side: "I knew that Xia Yuan would definitely complain to me when he came over." ”

"Lost, lost, lost." Head Liu smiled bitterly.

"Commander, you even bet with me." Xia Yuan was even more dissatisfied: "I don't have the ability to deal with a battalion, bragging will blow people to death." ”

"We've known about this matter for a long time, it's okay, don't worry, now you are the most famous combat hero in our division, and a special combat hero won't have to run away in the future."

Senior Commander Zheng patted Xia Yuan on the shoulder and continued, "I asked you to come over because I had something to discuss with you. ”

"Commander, you say."

"To lay down the nameless heights, your battalion must hold the nameless heights, buy more time for the division, and if you can block the American troops for one more minute, we can wait for one more minute to receive the troops."

Senior Commander Zheng sighed and said, "The tasks on your battalion are heavy, and we can't give you much help, everything still depends on you." ”

"Please rest assured, with me here, the US military will not want to take a step on its own." Xia Yuan solemnly promised.

"Thank you for your hard work." Teacher Zheng said.

"It's not hard, the geographical location of the nameless heights is not bad, there are bunker fortifications left by the US troops on the position, the hardness is good, let's fix it, it's simple to block the US troops for a day." Xia Yuan is very confident, in the blocking battle, he has fought Shangganling, repelled wave after wave of enemy attacks, as long as the tanks can't come up, with the coordination of the U.S. army's infantry artillery, it will definitely not be able to be defeated.

This is the self-confidence that came out of Shangganling.

"I must come back alive, and when the time comes, I will take Lao Duan and let us taste the red wine of the American devil." Master Zheng said.

"Yes, Commander!"

After the 540th Regiment cleaned up the battlefield, they replenished some ammunition by themselves and left the rest of their weapons and equipment to the independent battalion.

Of course, Xia Yuan didn't want everything, he gave some sharp weapons to deal with American tanks to the 540 Regiment, so that when he met the enemy tank, he didn't need to let the soldiers fight hard.

After the team was fully equipped, they leaned towards the main position of Eagle Peak, the black pressure team extended a long distance, Xia Yuan and Yang Nanzhen stood on the top of the hill and watched the 540 Regiment go away, retracted their gaze, and said: "Let's go and strengthen the position, when we get to the front line of the breakthrough, the battle situation will not be as easy as in the back, the US army will not let us move around Eagle Peak, avoid bomb craters, anti-slope bomb craters should be more prepared." ”

Yang Nanzhen nodded: "I know, I have dug a few more trenches in addition, and I can use traffic trenches to connect them, so I can wait for the opportunity to make a detour." ”

"Hmm." Xia Yuan nodded.

In fact, the roundabout communication trenches are of little significance, if the US military uses mortars to shell the position, the communication trenches can play some role, but if the US military uses long-range artillery to cover the position, the effect is basically not large, the accuracy of the long-range artillery fire is defective, the US military will use covered bombing, covering this hill in all directions, and the only safe thing is the anti-slope.

The detour of the trenches can only cope with the mortar fire attack of the US army, and once the US army adopts long-range artillery covered bombing, it still needs to avoid bomb craters on the anti-slope.

However, anything can happen, and the traffic trench should still be dug up.

After the 540 Regiment led by Division Commander Zheng and Regiment Commander Liu separated from Xia Yuan, it didn't take long for them to meet Deputy Division Commander Duan and Regiment Commander Pang, who were also approaching the main position of Eagle Peak, and after meeting with the division commander, everyone was very happy.

Deputy Division Commander Duan said: "There are a lot of troops that have broken through, division commander, when you arrive at the main position of Eagle Peak, you should not be far from our brother troops." ”

Division Commander Zheng didn't dare to fully confirm it, this was related to the whole division's Ju Ze, and at a critical juncture, as the division commander, he couldn't be the slightest sloppy.

Senior Commander Zheng thought of Xia Yuan.

Seeing that Division Commander Zheng did not say a word, Deputy Division Commander Duan said again: "When I broke through at night, the situation was too chaotic, and part of the radio station was damaged by grenades, and half a basket of accessories was also lost. ”

This is not good news, Master Zheng sighed and said: "If you can contact Junbu now, everything will be clear, without the radio, it is equivalent to becoming a blind man and a cage." ”

The damage to the radio station was also one of the reasons why the 180th Division was coming to an end, the 181st Division and the 179th Division could not be contacted with the 180th Division, and no one knew where their specific location was, and the rescue mission did not mean that it was enough to fight in one direction, and the rescue of the 180th Division, the 181st Division and the 179th Division had to break through the enemy's blockade, but once the direction was wrong, the previous efforts would be wasted, and those soldiers who sacrificed would be equivalent to sacrificing in vain.

Division Commander Zheng and Deputy Division Commander Duan both sensed trouble.

At this time, a herald ran back and said to Division Commander Zheng: "Report, the scouts found that a crowd of people was found on the east side of Eagle Peak in front, and the distance was too far to determine whether it was the enemy or ours. ”

Deputy Division Commander Duan said excitedly: "Division Commander, it must be the 179th Division who came to pick you up, and I will bring people over." ”

Senior Commander Zheng calmly grabbed Deputy Division Commander Duan and said, "We still have to be cautious, let's talk about it after we figure it out, let's go, let's go and have a look." ”

Five minutes later, the soldiers who came down from above ran down and told Commander Pang about the situation, and after hearing this, Commander Pang frowned, and after giving an order, he quickly found Deputy Division Commander Duan and Division Commander Zheng.

"Division commander, deputy division commander, it's not reinforcements, it's the enemy, I asked the second company commander to organize a strong attack."

The news was like a dark cloud over their heads, lingering.

Deputy Division Commander Duan said: "Lao Pang, look at it, this is full of mountain roads, rugged and difficult to walk, and the East Highland of Eagle Peak must be taken back for me, or it will be all over." ”

Regiment Commander Pang was very confident: "Division commander, deputy division commander, it is impossible for the enemy to crush us on Eagle Peak, I will definitely take people to knock down the east side of Eagle Peak." ”

"No, look at it now, within five kilometers, there must still be a certain number of enemy columns chasing this way, Eagle Peak must not become the burial place of my 180th Division! Captain Pang, I now ask you to knock down the high ground on the east side within ten minutes! "Deputy Division Commander Duan's attitude is very tough, which is related to the safety of the 180th Division.

Commander Pang replied to Deputy Division Commander Duan with confidence: "Deputy Division Commander, it's just such a small group of enemies, it won't take ten minutes, you can watch it." ”

"Ha, let's split up, if the second attack comes, don't be caught off guard."

Don't look at Deputy Division Commander Duan, sometimes he has a petty temperament, but when he fights, he is not ambiguous at all. The 540th Regiment has now been transferred by the division commander to block the pursuing enemy in the rear, and the situation of the 539th Regiment is unknown, and everything in front of it can only rely on the 538th Regiment.

Division Commander Zheng found that after the independent battalion defeated the nameless heights, he found that there were no traces of the activities of our army's friendly and neighboring troops here, and he had already thought of the worst possible outcome, but the dust had not yet settled, everything was still possible, and he was still unwilling to consider the worst outcome.

Five-Thirty-Eight Regiment.

The order of the deputy division commander was to knock down the enemy's position in the shortest possible time.

A little soldier in the marching ranks shouted: "Hey, a kettle of ours, squad leader, look at it." ”

The squad leader said: "Don't be stupid, little ghost, you still think that the reinforcements have come, and the soldiers have fallen." ”

The little soldier said, "Yes, yes, could it be that the friendly forces have just arrived, and before we have waited for us to encounter a counterattack and retreat." ”

The squad leader shattered his beautiful imagination very bluntly, and said: "Don't be stupid, little ghost, this should be our brother who was blown up by the enemy's shell just now, and the kettle jumped here." ”

The little warrior reviewed his love for his body, patted the dirt on the kettle, and carefully hung it on his body.

Suddenly, a shout from the chief of staff of the first battalion, Pan Hui, came from afar: "Come to order, the people of the first company, follow me and hit the high ground on the east side!" ”

"Assemble! Hurry up and assemble! ”

"Company commander, you let me have a full meal, I will hit wherever you point"

There was another shout from the company commander, his voice already out of breath, with a weakness that could not be concealed.

The soldiers were really exhausted and collapsed, and they were very reluctant to carry light weapons weighing eight or nine pounds.

The chief of staff of the second battalion saw all this in his eyes, not to mention how sad he was, he did not blame those soldiers who spoke their hearts, they had been without food for six days, they didn't eat or drink much, how much nutrition can be replenished by wild vegetables, and their physical fitness had long been unable to keep up, and they were all weak.

They're only eighteen or nineteen years old.

However, the high ground on the east side of Eagle Peak must be beaten down, and it will not work if it is not defeated, and the large army is blocked in the ditch halfway up the mountain, and as soon as the reinforcements of the American army arrive, they can form a flanking attack on them with the enemy on the mountain, so to speak, as soon as they jump out of an encirclement, they fall into a quagmire again.

Seeing this, Pan Hui, the chief of staff of the first battalion, shouted again: "Party members, regimental members come out, follow me!" ”

The sound of the sound sounded, they joined the red team, no one complained, each gritted his teeth and checked the weapons and equipment on his body, dragged his tired, almost collapsed body and followed Pan Hui to carry out the task.

There were not enough people, but they still had to fight the enemy's positions.

This has to be done.

At this time, many people broke out of the ravine under the Eagle Peak, and thousands of people gathered in the ravine, looking for all the wild vegetables and leaves that could be eaten, and the hunger was really unbearable.
