Chapter 9: The situation is escalating

Ordinary people lose the limit distance once, and then lose the second time and start to go downhill, and the third and fourth throws are not as good as before.

This is basically recognized, any throw limit distance, the whole body strength and arms, is a big test.

After throwing once, it is difficult to maintain the previous level.

Xia Yuan broke the convention, throwing four or five times in a row, and maintaining a throwing distance of 100 meters every time.

The eyes of hundreds of people looked at the thin man, and it was hard to imagine that there was such a powerful power hidden in this small man.

There is no doubt that Xia Yuan is completely famous.

Xia Yuan was accompanying Xiao Heping and Zhou Mao to pick vegetables, and the eldest Liu hurriedly ran into the yard, without saying a word, he pulled Xia Yuan and got up: "Come with me." ”

Seeing the appearance of the eldest elder Liu in a hurry, Xia Yuan was a little confused, "What's wrong?" ”

"The chief is here."

"What, the chief is here."

In a word, the peaceful courtyard was detonated, and where could the soldiers in the cooking squad stay here peacefully and cook, they got up and ran out of the courtyard one after another.

Xia Yuan threw a grenade and threw it out for 100 meters, not just to break the military record, you must know that the best throwing distance in the entire corps is only in the early nineties, which is already a national record.

Xia Yuan threw 100 meters and directly broke the national record.

It wasn't until decades later that a soldier named Song Fudan broke the record and threw a distance of 102 meters against the sky.

Xia Yuan is now throwing more than a hundred meters away, after experiments, but he didn't use any skills, and he completely relied on hard strength.

Song Fudan threw a national record of 102 meters, stretched his body, turned his body to send his hips, his movements were coherent, his arm rhythm and skills were skillful, and his strength created a record in this event.

Xia Yuan didn't make these moves, grabbed the grenade and threw it out.

After reading it, the chief said with emotion: "It's unimaginable, if you don't see it with your own eyes, it's really hard to imagine that there is such a powerful force hidden in a small person, and this move is afraid that it will directly break the national record." ”

As the chief, they could see that Xia Yuan's movements were swift and fast, without any skills, and relied on pure strength.

If you combine it with skill, you may be able to throw it farther.

Subsequently, the matter appeared in the newspapers, followed by a gust of wind that set off a wave in the various corps.

A small man of one meter and six three, with a distance of one hundred and seven meters against the sky, the two of them feel very incompatible when they are connected.

This is still the result of Xia Yuan's clumsiness, if combined with his skills, combined with his strength, he can throw the grenade model one hundred and thirty meters away, but it looks too inhuman.

One hundred and seven meters is already unacceptable for the soldiers of this era.

In short, Xia Yuan is on fire.

His name is like a virus that spreads throughout the army.

He became the youngest national record holder for throwing a grenade, which was a great achievement, and it stands to reason that Xia Yuan should not stay in the cooking class, but soon, with a few days of training, the matter calmed down.

Instructor Hu found Xia Yuan and said to him, "Are you surprised, why didn't you transfer you outside?" ”

Xia Yuan nodded, he was indeed surprised.

Instructor Hu said with a smile: "This is because you have only been in the company for a long time, and you have created such a national record, considering that you have been in the company for too short a time, have not been tempered at the grassroots level, and have not experienced the tempering of the battlefield, it is not possible to promote you." ”

Xia Yuan nodded, "Instructor, I understand." ”

He is still young and needs to be trained at the grassroots level, and the national record he has set alone can guarantee him to move up two levels.

If you stay in the cooking class, stay in the cooking class.

The training was carried out day after day, and the ideological work of hatred of US imperialism was taught lesson after lesson.

A month was spent in training.

On 27 August, US planes invading the DPRK intruded into New China's airspace in five and 13 sorties and strafed railway stations and airports in Ji'an, Andong, and other places in China's northeastern border areas.

After 29 July, US planes invading the DPRK continued to invade China's airspace and bomb and strafe China's urban and rural areas, killing and wounding people along China's borders and destroying property.

This act of the United States is undoubtedly a provocation against the newly established New China.

MacArthur, a five-star general, commander-in-chief of the U.S. Forces in the Far East and commander-in-chief of the United Nations Forces, was convinced that his country would give him the full support to win the war and even eliminate Eastern Redism.

Therefore, regardless of the risk of provoking a third world war, he also wanted to provoke China and the Soviet Union to send troops to fulfill his long-cherished wish to eliminate the Red Doctrine of the East.

When discussing the Inchon landing plan, which involved the New China offensive platform, he vowed: "I pray every night that the Red China will do the same — I often kneel down there and pray." ”

MacArthur was the most prestigious military man in the United States, and in the Philippine Campaign of the Pacific War in World War II, he annihilated the Japanese navy, army, and air force with less American troops than the Japanese army, and MacArthur's portrait appeared on the currency and postage stamps issued by the Philippines.

After the announcement of Japan's portrait, he accepted Japan's surrender on behalf of the Allied forces on board the USS Missouri in the name of 'Supreme Commander of the Allied Forces'.

He also did his best to restore the post-war Japanese economy and protect the militarists, so that the top figures in the political and economic circles, such as the Japanese Prime Minister at the time, Shigeru Yoshida, almost regarded him as a 'savior'.

Famous British military analyst. Liddell Hart said, "MacArthur was the leader of the generals. ”

As soon as the news of MacArthur's appointment as supreme commander of the 'United Nations Forces' spread, it aroused a wave of praise from the public opinion circles.

The New York Times wrote: "The god of fate could no longer pick another man more qualified to win the unreserved trust of his own people." This is a first-rate strategist and inspired leader. He does not want to enjoy high prestige not only in his own country but in the entire Pacific region, all of which is priceless. ”

"Every family in America today is convinced that if there is a man who can successfully carry out the task assigned to him by Truman and the United Nations Security Council, and who does so honorably and effectively without wasting his or her human or material resources, then that person is that good soldier in Tokyo, and that soldier has been fully proven capable of serving his country well."

MacArthur even planned to participate in the election of the next president of the United States.

Since the outbreak of the Korean War, the North-East Border Guards have been massing on the Sino-North Korean border, but the strength of the enemy they face is far beyond imagination.

In the meetings held by the various armies, emphasis was placed on discussing the situation of their enemies: The US military launched the war of the Qin Dynasty in the name of the 'United Nations,' and it is not known how many servant troops can come, but the United States has 1.2 million active soldiers in the army, navy, and air force, and the well-equipped US 22nd, 24th, and 25th divisions have landed in Busan, Korea.

This is already landed.

There will be a cavalry division that will land.

The South Korean army has the Capital Division, the 1st Division, the 2nd Division, the 3rd Division, the 6th Division, the 7th Division, the 8th Division, and the 9th Division, with a total strength of 150,000 troops.

There are 15 friendly divisions, plus a total of 250,000 local troops, and 3 divisions of Soviet-style equipment, which participated in the Northeast Liberation War and has a certain combat effectiveness.

At the meeting, in addition to comparing the gap in strength between the two sides, it was also discussed that the current situation is extremely unfavorable to the situation of friendly forces, that the KPA is currently in a state of stalemate with the US and puppet armies on the Nakdong River, that the US forces continue to increase their troops, and that with their powerful air force and navy, it is difficult for the KPA to resist the attack of the Americans.

Therefore, it is inevitable that the flames of war will spread to North Korea.

But this war is still a local war, it cannot be a third world war, after the second world war, even the victorious countries are exhausted, and the people demand peace and healing the wounds of war, that is, the forces of peace exceed the forces of war, and it is impossible for any bloc to start a third world war.

In order to cope with the ensuing situation, the North-East Frontier Guard Army, consisting of four corps and three artillery divisions of the 38th, 39th, 40th, and 42nd armies, plus logistical support units, prepared for war on the Sino-Korean border and was ready to fight in the DPRK at any time to support the Korean people in resisting the aggression of the US-led United Nations forces.

At the meeting, emphasis was placed on discussing the preparations that should be made as much as possible and even necessary once the DPRK is to be fought.

First, the ideological mobilization work of preparing for war; the 38th Army has been fighting for nearly 20 years, and every commander and fighter hopes that the war will end and live in peace. In the past, the leaders told the troops that it would be better to go home if they defeated the Japanese devils, and later, the leaders said that it would be better to go home if they defeated Chiang's bald reactionaries.

Now, after only half a year of peaceful life, he has to go back to the battlefield to fight US imperialism.

It doesn't take much work to move from war to peace, that's what every soldier expects.

From peace to war, this is a 180-degree turn, not to mention that the soldiers have gone through the production task of reclaiming wasteland for more than half a year, which is quite difficult, and it is necessary to explain both the big and small truths clearly.

Second, it is necessary to speed up organizational preparations; during the War of Liberation, when the troops suffered serious losses, the Beidong Military Region allocated a large number of troops to supplement them in the 38th Army, accelerated the maintenance and replenishment of equipment, and reported the vehicles and horses that were still lacking for replenishment. The cadres lacking in the whole army were quickly promoted and replenished, and stretcher units for logistics civilian workers in the army, division, and regiment were formed, and cadres above the platoon level were transferred from the troops to solve the problem.

Third, it is necessary to strengthen training in the face of battle, with cadres at and above the regimental level having their military training classes run to study the operational characteristics of the US military and our countermeasures, and vigorously strengthening the tactical training of divisions, regiments, battalions, and companies at night, with emphasis on training below the regimental level, and technical training focusing on shooting, bomb throwing, assassination, and earthwork.

The chief specially named Xia Yuan, "This kid's achievements in bomb throwing training are amazing, let him explain to the soldiers the skills and grasp of bomb throwing, how to do it, not only can throw grenades far, but also throw grenades accurately." ”

In addition, in order to meet the needs of foreign operations, reconnaissance training in the troops has been strengthened.

Fourth, it is necessary to strengthen preparations for logistical support, to enrich logistical units and cadres, and to quickly set the number of ammunition to be carried by the troops themselves, the base number of logistics at the army, division, and regiment levels, the number of medicines, and battlefield rescue materials to be carried by the army, division, and regiment, and the amount of grain, oil, and salt that should be carried by the army, division, and regiment.

Due to the fact that we are fighting abroad and transportation is difficult, it is difficult to replenish it in time, so it is necessary to strengthen the number of people we carry and improve the strategic thinking of our soldiers to support the war by fighting.

Correspondingly, increase the number of corps, divisions, and regiments, and report the number of vehicles and horses required to the military region, and please solve the problem as soon as possible.

At that time, the troops had just finished the production tasks of reclaiming wasteland and planting grain from the Central Plains, and the issue of sending troops to Korea had not yet been made public, but there were many discussions among the cadres and soldiers in the troops about whether or not to go out of the ice, so the military department demanded that the work of secrecy be stricter.

At that time, no one was allowed to talk about sending troops when they wrote letters to family or friends, and if they violated it, they would be punished by military discipline.

When talking about how to deal with the real confrontation with the US military.

The leaders were all veterans of the War of Resistance against Japan and the War of Liberation, and they had a fiery temper.

"I'm afraid of a bear, the American devil is not a three-headed and six-armed devil, we just take the paper tiger seriously. Beat it up and show it to the people of the world. ”

"Well said, it really said that our hearts have gone up, they are all with one head and two legs, and the one who is the mother of the god, how can there be planes, and the little Japanese devils also have planes and tanks, and they will not be driven away by us anyway."

The units of the 38th Army are all brave and good at victory, and they are able to fight both sports warfare, offensive battles, and defensive warfare, and their morale is strong and they have the spirit of self-sacrifice.

When I was a little Japanese devil, I was screaming, just like a wolf.

With regard to the ideological work of the fighters, the organization has arranged education on the situation and tasks with the US imperialists intervening in the DPRK and occupying Taiwan and whether we can ignore them, as well as education on hatred of the United States (i.e., hatred, contempt, and contempt) and education on patriotism and internationalism, and political work cadres at all levels have gone deep into the companies and together with the cadres and fighters, combined with the forms and history, held complaint meetings, organized lectures, watched movies, listened to radio, and visited photo exhibitions, so as to expose the aggressive nature of US imperialism and arouse the fighters' bitter hatred for US imperialism, Clearly define the importance of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea and defending the country.

The first anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China

Hundreds of thousands of people gathered in the square to watch the grand parade.

The North-East Frontier Army also organized an evening party, in which pork stewed vermicelli and white flour steamed buns were distributed by superiors and down to the cooking classes of each regiment, battalion, and company.

Early in the morning, everyone got up and ran to tell each other.

The significance of the first anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China is far greater than that of the first Spring Festival after the founding of the People's Republic of China

On this day, the pork stewed vermicelli and white flour steamed buns were eaten in a panic.

Elder Liu served Xia Yuan a big bowl of pork, and sat next to him on the stone at the door, with two white-flour steamed buns in the bowl.

"Stinky boy, Northeast cuisine, isn't it delicious?"

"It's delicious."

The dishes are made by Da Lao Liu, and the steamed buns are also steamed with their noodles, soft and sweet, with pork stewed vermicelli, not to mention how delicious they are. (End of chapter)
