Chapter 33: Night Attack on Zhuren Bridge

Xia Yuan was a little clear about the next battle plan, and Xiao Heping and Zhou Mao grabbed the guns in their hands.

"I don't have enough ammo."

"That's enough, when you left, you let the two of us load twenty grenades, enough to greet them."

"Then act!"

Xia Yuan planned not to wait for the eldest Liu, and led the two of them from the mountain to bypass the enemy position halfway up the mountain.

At this time, the volunteer soldiers of that platoon had already launched a sudden attack on the enemy's position, and the American troops on the position were taken by surprise, and the panicked resistance was without any discipline, and the attacking volunteer soldiers closely cooperated with each other, took care of each other, and quickly broke into the enemy's forward position.

One of the firing points on the position quickly became a difficult point for their attack.

Ge Huaixiang, the commander of the second platoon, immediately gestured and ordered the third squad to blow up the enemy's fire point.

They had to take the enemy's position as quickly as possible and cover the company commander as they passed through the area below.

The enemy's firepower was particularly fierce, and the machine-gun fire chain spouted out a long rainbow, which sank into the forest, and the rain curtain shattered, and the leaves of the branches fell one after another.

The soldiers of the third squad attacked very quickly, and their movements were very vigorous, and they could vaguely see several black shadows sticking to the ground, like a black lightning bolt approaching the enemy's position, close to the enemy's machine-gun fire point, and several people quickly carried out an ambush and advanced, and quickly lay on the ground when the enemy's fire strafed.

Seeing that he was about to get close to the enemy's firing point, suddenly a violent explosion sounded from the enemy's rear.

"What's going on!" Ge Huaixiang raised his head and looked at the rear of the enemy's position, and from that direction there was a fierce engagement, and then they felt a lot less pressure on their heads.

Even the enemy's machine guns stopped firing at the point of fire, and the soldiers of the third squad saw the opportunity and rushed up, and saw the corpses of the enemy lying in the enemy's firing point, and in the distance there were people wearing the same hats as them, but wearing American overcoats, were fighting with two soldiers wearing American steel helmets.

These two American soldiers were no match for the thin figure, but when they saw the thin figure jump up with an arrow, the bayonet stabbed into the other person's body.

Seeing this, another American soldier dropped his gun and ran, and the little man drew his bayonet, raised the muzzle of his gun and fired a shot, which hit the enemy in the back, and the American soldier fell to the ground and rolled down the hillside.

After collecting the gun, the figure turned his head and spoke a string of fluent Chinese: "Are you the 38th Army or the 39th Army?" Or the Forty Army? ”

"Thirty-ninth Army!"

The third squad leader responded, looking at the corpses on the battlefield, "You did it." ”

"No, it's just a platoon of American devils, if you hadn't attacked from the front, we wouldn't have been able to come in from behind." The figure approached, and the third squad leader saw clearly that it was a very young soldier, with a childish face that had not faded.

They also saw two warriors emerge from the enemy's trenches, dressed in enemy overcoats with their cotton clothes underneath.

Ge Huaixiang rushed up, "The battle is over?" ”

The third squad leader said: "It's over, thanks to these three comrades, they came in from behind." ”

Ge Huaixiang looked at Xia Yuan and the three and stepped forward: "You are Chinese?" ”

"We belong to the Thirty-Eighth Army, and we are separated from the troops." Xia Yuan said simply: "Do you know the current location of the 38th Army? Or tell me where it is. ”

"This is the Zhuren Bridge on the Jiulong River in Yunshan, how did you come here, I don't know where your troops are." Ge Huaixiang quickly said: "Comrade, let's go to the task first, and when the task is over, we'll talk about it." ”

Zhou Mao and Xiao Heping stood beside Xia Yuan, the two of them had experienced the battle just now, their chests rose and fell violently, and they obviously hadn't woken up from the battle just now.

"Xia Yuan, let's go along."

"yes, maybe we can help!"

The two of them were full of blood and couldn't wait to fight.

"Good!" Xia Yuan raised his head and said, "We are also separated from the troops now, comrade, I hope you don't dislike it." ”

"Don't dislike it, it's all a family!" Ge Huaixiang looked down the mountain, "Let's go, the company commander has already passed." ”

"Xiao Heping, you go to the squad leader and wait on the mountain with the squad leader." Xia Yuan turned his head.

"Xia Yuan, I'm not going, I'm going to kill devils!" Xiao Heping shook his head firmly.

"Go, it's an order." Xia Yuan's eyes widened: "The squad leader is injured, Zhao Yi can't use a gun, if the two of them encounter American devils, it will be dangerous." ”

Even if there were a hundred reluctances in his heart, Xiao Heping could only swallow his stomach and run towards the mountain with a gun.

"Peace is still young, and the next battle will be dangerous." Xia Yuan looked at Xiao Heping's back.

"You're not as old as him." Zhou Mao said.

"I'm not too young psychologically." Xia Yuan said with a smile, replenishing ammunition on the corpse of the American devil, carrying a gun to keep up with the footsteps of Ge Huaixiang and others: "Let's keep up, after this battle, let them help us ask about the location of the 38th Army." ”

"Hey!"

As the enemy's position on the mountainside was captured, Zhou Shiming, the commander of the fourth company, led a platoon of the second echelon straight over and became the vanguard of the whole company.

When they arrived at Zhuren Bridge, it was already eleven o'clock in the morning, and they encountered many dangers along the way, all of which they easily resolved. Zhou Shiming's whole company quickly occupied the surrounding small high ground, looking down from the mountain, this is a cement bridge, the road is wide enough to pass two cars, there is about a platoon of enemies at the head of the bridge, but more than a dozen cars with lights on can be seen on the winding road.

The rumbling of tanks could be heard from the east.

Zhou Shiming thought that it was not enough to just occupy the high ground, and it was necessary to capture the Zhuren Bridge in order to ensure the annihilation of the enemy.

He led the first platoon to attack from the front, and the deputy company commander led the second platoon to insert it from the left side to form a pincer shape, and the machine guns, mortars, and 60 guns of the whole company were concentrated to deal with the enemy at the bridgehead.

Ge Huaixiang told Zhou Shiming about the encounter with three comrades of the 38th Army when he attacked the enemy on the mountainside.

"Let them follow you for the time being, and the rest will wait until the battle is over."

The most important thing at the moment is to win the Zhuren Bridge, and nothing else matters.

When Ge Huaixiang came back, he simply told Xia Yuan, Xia Yuan stared at Zhurenqiao and nodded: "Company Commander Zhou's plan is very strict, and we will follow you." ”

"What about another comrade?" Ge Huaixiang saw that there was one less, so he asked.

"We also have a squad leader and a translator, the squad leader is injured and walks slowly, let's come over and go up first."

Xia Yuan felt that the other party seemed to have misunderstood, so he explained.

As soon as they reached the vicinity of the road, they heard a dull whistling sound from behind, as if something had torn the rain curtain in the sky, and fell fiercely on the bridgehead in front of them, and in an instant, the feeling of the ground shaking and shaking was transmitted.

"It's our artillery!"

Zhou Mao paused, and saw muddy black flowers blooming on the enemy's position in an instant, shaking his heart.

The platoon in charge of the main attack had already pressed up from the front, and as soon as the battle was about to break out, the deafening roar of the enemy's machine guns could be heard from afar.

Zhou Mao's heart trembled, this is completely different from the battle just now.

"Quick, keep up."

They were rapidly moving to the flanks.

There is also a lot of rain in the river beach, with some turbidity, and the rain may have become so heavy that the water in the river is much more rapid.

"Quick!"

Jumping into the icy water, the biting cold eroding your legs.

The deputy company commander roared, the riverbed under his feet was potholed, uneven, and there were many stones, and the two fighters fell on their heels, choked, and coughed violently.

"Be careful."

Zhou Mao picked up the warriors around him and raised his head to look at the riverbank in the distance.

The drizzle was hazy, the black rumbled, and I could see anything, not knowing what was hidden in the darkness in the distance.

There was no danger, they smoothly passed the turbulent river, stepped on the dry riverbed on the bank, stepped on wet shoes, and ran quickly to the shore.

Xia Yuan stared at the battle situation in the distance, a frontal attack platoon could not be beneficial at all, the enemy occupied a favorable terrain, relying on the defensive fire line organized by trucks and tanks, forming a dense fire network, covering the road of the platoon attack.

"Quick, quicken your pace!" The deputy company commander was equally anxious, and the longer they delayed, the worse the situation for the platoon.

Soon, they reached the shore, but unfortunately, the American troops raised flares, and the entire ravine, valley, and bridgehead were reflected as if it were daylight, and they were exposed to the riverbed at once.

In the distance, American troops spotted them coming around from the flanks, and the muzzle of a machine gun moved, aiming at the second platoon in the riverbed.

"Quick!" The deputy company commander was shocked, shouted, and accelerated to the shore.

Da-da-da.

The enemy's machine gun had just fired two rounds.

Whoosh, a bullet burst from the riverbed, grinding against the air and emitting a high-pitched whistling sound, and the American soldier with a steel helmet and machine gun fell to the ground.

The guy next to him pulled his body over, the steel helmet fell crookedly, and there was a round blood hole in the center of his head, and the blood flowed down his cheeks, mixing with the rain on his face, and his appearance looked very hideous.

“fuck!”

Such a state of death frightened the American soldier who pulled him out of his way and retreated again and again.

In the riverbed, the deputy company commander, who had already reached the shore, turned his head and looked a little puzzled, obviously the enemy had discovered them, and even the machine guns went off, but suddenly they stopped abruptly, not knowing what was happening.

This is not the time to think about it.

"Quick, get up, don't stay in the riverbed."

The riverbed is flat and has no bunkers, and once it is held up by the US military, the consequences are unimaginable.

The deputy company commander took the people and quickly climbed to the shore.

There was a lot of gravel on the side of the road, rain mixed with snow, wet and muddy, and they climbed onto the shore and lurked.

Zhou Mao squatted on the ground, "Xia Yuan, your marksmanship is so powerful!" ”

He had just clearly seen the scene of Xia Yuan raising his gun to shoot at the enemy's machine gun fire point, and the enemy's machine gun fire point was defeated by Xia Yuan before it was launched.

"Awesome, practiced." Xia Yuan responded with a smile, and when he saw the person in front of him standing up and leaving, he was frustrated that Zhou Mao followed him.

"Machine gunner, hurry up and take advantage of the terrain and cover the whole platoon!"

The soldiers rushed forward, and the deputy company commander observed the surrounding terrain with the help of the flares projected by the enemy, and shouted at the sound of rumbling guns.

Ahead of them was the road, a large number of trucks and tanks were parked, and as soon as they rushed up, they were knocked down by enemy fire, and the barrel of a tank twisted, and with a bang, a shell fell on the river beach, and the debris flew up and smashed on the soldiers.

"Grandma's, this Iron King can't be beaten at all."

The deputy company commander couldn't help but curse as he watched the bullets fired by the fighters fall on the enemy's tank and turn into a string of sparks.

"Rushing over, the enemy's line of defense must be torn apart."

This field was full of their men, but they just couldn't rush up, they were hit by the enemy's fierce fire, and the second platoon was blocked on the north side of the river beach, confronting the enemy.

Xia Yuan held the gun, lay on the anti-slope, stared at the American soldier who poked his head out, and pulled the trigger.

The bullet came out of the chamber, knocked out an American soldier, continued to pull the trigger, and fired at the enemy, and once he joined in, killing four or five enemies in quick succession, and in an instant, the fire network they formed was a little weaker.

The deputy company commander's eyes widened, and he looked in Xia Yuan's direction, and saw Xia Yuan pulling the trigger one by one, and the enemy's flickering muzzle flames fell several times, and his face showed great joy:

"It's really beautiful, Ge Huaixiang, are you platooning?"

Ge Huaixiang took a look: "Company commander, it's not our platoon, it's the comrades who have fallen behind in the 38th Army." ”

"A soldier of the Thirty-Eighth Army who you meet casually is so powerful?" The deputy company commander had a deep suspicion on his face, this was definitely a baby.

Xia Yuan tried his best to shoot a large number of soldiers on the American position, giving the attacking second platoon the opportunity to rush into the enemy's position, the second squad broke through the enemy's forward position and entered the road, the frontal enemy was attracted by the second squad, and the frontal attacking squad took advantage of the situation to attack the enemy position.

The enemy is in a mess in an instant, and once it is in a mess, then the next attack is much simpler.

Xia Yuan took Zhou Mao along the reverse slope on the side of the road, stepping on the melted and muddy snow, and quickly approached the position.

At this time, the enemy's position was completely in chaos, and after the second platoon rushed into the enemy's position, it was like a sharp knife, tearing open a fragile piece of paper, and the pressure of the platoon of the frontal attack decreased sharply, and three consecutive waves of charges tore the frontal enemy apart.

After Xia Yuan joined, he took Zhou Mao and began to clean up the remaining mess.

The flares in the sky had been extinguished, and the American soldiers had no time to release the flares, they only felt that there were enemies everywhere in all directions.

Xia Yuan used a pair of bright eyes to find those American soldiers who tried to hide in the dark, shot and captured, and the battle was basically over.

But then, enemy reinforcements arrived, and flares were raised from the distant road, illuminating the entire valley as if it were daylight, and the American troops were crushing the bridgehead in tanks, accompanied by a large number of American infantry, all over the surrounding fields.

Zhou Shiming didn't care about rewarding the soldiers who had made great contributions, and quickly collected everything that could be used on the position, and prepared to deal with this wave of enemy counterattacks. (End of chapter)
