Chapter 51

After everyone left, Zhao Xiaoyi sat down next to Xia Yuan and asked questions about the west, and the most asked question was because of his powerful marksmanship.

Xia Yuan didn't hide it, he had a lot of shooting experience after fighting for so long.

After listening to this, Zhao Xiaoyi thought thoughtfully, and quickly held a gun and lay on the ground to practice.

Xia Yuan looked at the position a little bored, the fifth company commander didn't let him dig the trenches, obviously treating him as a treasure.

Just now, he was still thinking about digging a trench, and then after seeing the way the soldiers of the fifth company dug the trenches, he understood why the commander of the fifth company didn't let him dig the trenches.

The air was cold, the sky was still covered with snowflakes, but fortunately, the enemy's shells loosened the frozen soil on the position, and the soldiers poked the ground with bayonets, poked the frozen ground open, and the stones were warped out, and then they grabbed them with their hands, and some of the soldiers' hands were already red and swollen from the cold, and this way of digging quickly made their fingers cut and paste a layer of sticky soil.

Xia Yuan was extremely uncomfortable to watch.

It is no wonder that when he came to the position, why the trench was so shallow, and the efficiency of using such a digging method was very slow.

But the soldiers, with a strong will, dug three trenches on the position, which were winding and winding, enough for air defense strafing.

At this time, Dai Wenli, a cultural instructor of the Fifth Company, climbed the position and brought small shovels to the Fifth Company, and the soldiers were happy with smiles and divided the small shovels, and the efficiency of digging trenches was improved too much.

"Dai Wenli, I just heard from Lao Han that thanks to you, they were able to fight back so quickly that the enemy counterattacked." Dai Wenli found Xia Yuan and looked at the marksman in the mouth of the commander of the fifth company with his own eyes.

Dai Wenli, a member of the Communist Youth League, 24 years old, a native of Hanshou County, Nanhu, joined the army after finishing middle school, and is an intellectual with no combat experience.

Like many young intellectuals who came to the army, he was full of revolutionary pride and put his life and death on the line.

When the troops were attacking Feihu Mountain, he was ordered to take a stretcher group to rush to transport the wounded, and many young intellectuals who were assigned to the company actively undertook such tasks during the battle.

Dai Wenli, like all people who participated in the battle for the first time, felt that every shell and bullet of the enemy was flying towards him, and he could hear the rumbling sound on the mountain, the bullets flying everywhere, Dai Wenli squatted at the foot of the mountain and didn't know how to move, his heart beating violently.

He asked himself, "Can I be so afraid? Why am I squatting here? Didn't I write in my letter of determination that I would be tempered and tested?"

Thinking of this, he suddenly got up and climbed up the hill, into a small wood, and with a bang, a cannonball fell not far from him and exploded, and the broken shrapnel shot into the trunks of the pine trees around him, and he couldn't help but lie on the ground with weak legs.

There was a clattering sound from the big tree in front of me, but I saw the big tree fall to the ground.

His heart was pounding, and suddenly he caught another glimpse of a warrior rolling down the mountain, but then the warrior got up again, raised his grenade and rushed up the mountain.

The warrior looked young, younger than he was.

Dai Wenli seemed to be greatly affected

"Can't I move forward?"

Gritting his teeth, he got up from the ground and climbed to the position with a stretcher.

When the commander of the fifth company saw him, he said with concern, "How is it, Dai Wenli, is it the first time that the eldest girl is in a sedan chair?"

Dai Wenli smiled far-fetchedly, blushing, he felt that he was still far from a real warrior.

It was his first time on the battlefield, and the whole process was quite thrilling, but he also rushed down two wounded from the position, which is worth remembering for the rest of his life.

Seeing Xia Yuan's young face, Dai Wenli was even more ashamed, and after communicating with Xia Yuan for a while, he went to assist the soldiers in digging trenches.

Halfway through the trench digging, the enemy began to bombard the fifth company with heavy artillery fire.

"Hide!" Zhao Xiaoyi shouted, and the two jumped into the trench and curled up in a ball.

Dozens of shells shook the hills, screaming shrapnel slashed branches fell to the ground, and within a few minutes, the positions were still covered with bullet craters and turned into bare tree stumps.

Lao Qi, who commanded the second platoon to garrison the forward position, looked at the position filled with gunsmoke and the continuous roar, and realized, "The enemy is going to destroy the fifth company with artillery fire!"

The enemy's artillery fire was incessant, and even if the trenches were dug deep enough, under the continuous fire of the enemy, the trenches also turned into shallow ditches, and many soldiers were buried in the soil, and as soon as they struggled out, they were buried in the dirt rolled up above their heads.

Suddenly, someone on the battlefield shouted, "The enemy is coming!!"

But such sounds were swallowed up by artillery fire instead.

Wu Jingwen, the machine gunner of the fifth company, heard the sound, and did not care about hiding in the trench to avoid the enemy's shells, so he controlled the captured machine gun and turned the muzzle to strafe the enemy behind him, but the enemy was outnumbered, and the enemy still rushed to the position.

At this moment, the enemy's artillery fire stopped, and the fighters of the second platoon immediately jumped out of the fortifications, brandishing the butts of their guns and smashing them.

The soldier Zhang You finished firing the bullet, broke the butt of the gun again, grabbed the enemy with his last hand, pushed hard, and threw the two enemies down the mountain.

At this moment, a shell exploded next to Zhang You, and the shrapnel cut off his hands, but fortunately, the soldiers of the stretcher group rescued him, and after a simple bandage by the hygienist, he quickly moved to the rear.

The battle continues.

The soldiers of the second platoon fought fiercely with the enemy, Xia Yuan did not stop, constantly pulling the trigger, knocking down the enemies who rushed to the position one by one, and relieving the pressure of the second platoon.

The night covered the mountains, the second platoon withdrew from the forward position to the main position, everyone was tired and hungry, and they didn't care about what to say to the company commander, Lao Qi saw the company commander and asked, "Have you eaten the box of canned beef we sent?"

The fifth company commander smiled and said, "Keep it for you, Zhao Xiaoyi, quickly bring it and treat it."

This is the trophy of their fight against Xichuan, and they have never been willing to eat it.

Zhao Xiaoyi opened the can with a bayonet, and Lao Qi devoured it.

The fifth-company fighters were also tired and hungry

, they have also been hungry on the battlefield, Lao Qi shared with them several times, but they refused, the fifth company commander said: "You are the most tired and hungry, you eat first."

Lao Qi was eating, and suddenly remembered the safety on the position, put down the can, wiped his mouth and said to the fifth company commander, "I'll go check the fortifications of each platoon."

Lao Qi just walked out of the air-raid shelter, didn't take a few steps, felt his body shake, a bullet grazed his left shoulder, and then rubbed against his belly, opened the cotton coat, and the frightened old Qi turned back and said to the company commander: "Company commander, don't run around, be careful, look!"

He lifted up the cotton clothes torn by shrapnel and bullets, and smiled: "Our lives are hard, Lord Yama doesn't want us."

In the middle of the night, Dai Wenli, a cultural instructor, ran to the position with a few boxes of canned food and said to the commander of the fifth company: "Old Han, look at what this is."

"Canned, where did it come from?" The fifth company commander took it and asked with a surprised expression.

At this time, their logistics materials have not come up yet, could it be that the logistics materials have arrived?

"The battalion distributed it said that the first battalion had won the battle and captured a lot of good things, so let's follow the troops guarding the main peak first." Culture teacher Dai Wenli said, "I'm going to distribute these cans to each row so that everyone can eat some crushing hunger."

"Go, dodge some enemy bullets on the way."

"Don't worry, the enemy is probably sleeping soundly right now."

The commander of the fifth company distributed the canned food to everyone, took out another box of canned food, and handed it to Xia Yuan: "Eat, this is captured by your battalion."

"Fifth Company Commander, I don't need it, when I came, Company Commander Sun gave me a box of canned food." Xia Yuan smiled, this thing was captured by them, when they were in the forest, the American devils ate a lot of good things leftover, and the soldiers cleaned up the battlefield while eating.

He also ate a lot.

"Okay, Zhao Xiaoyi, you keep this box of canned food, you two eat it when you're hungry."

"Hey!"

"Pan Yun, Pan Yun." The commander of the fifth company shouted again.

"Here."

Xia Yuan saw a young soldier running over with vigorous movements, and he asked Zhao Xiaoyi, "Communicator?"

"How do you know?" Zhao Xiaoyi was a little surprised, and he guessed it right at once.

Do you still need to guess, you can see it by looking at the outfit on his body, as well as the other party's trouser legs, plus a small man like Zhao Xiaoyi.

"I'm the same communicator, but I'm like a guard now." Zhao Xiaoyi said.

The commander of the fifth company was explaining things to Pan Yun.

After a while, Pan Yun ran away.

At midnight, the commander of the 4th Company came to the position of the 5th Company with the guards.

"The hill in front is occupied by the American devils, and the superiors have asked us to knock him down tonight, at this point, I estimate that the American devils are already asleep, and it is the best time for us to fight back." The commander of the fifth company looked at the time, it was already two o'clock in the morning, and there were still three or four days left before dawn

hours, they had to knock down the enemy on that hill in the shortest possible time.

After all the silence, the two briefly discussed the details of the operation and decided to adopt the plan of attacking the west.

The fifth company is facing the hill, and the fourth company is on the right side of the hill.

The plan is very simple, the fifth company will attack the enemy from the left first, and wait for the enemy's center of gravity on the mountain to start moving to the left, and the fourth company will take advantage of its unpreparedness to attack the right side with extreme speed, relieve the pressure of the fifth company, and cooperate with the fifth company to take the mountain by the way.

The two of them set the time for thirty minutes later.

The commander of the fourth company left in a hurry with the guards.

The commander of the fifth company immediately gathered his troops, left a squad of troops on the position, took sixty men, checked the weapons and ammunition, and began to move down the mountain.

"Your marksmanship is so good that you can hit the enemy's machine-gun fire point in the bunker."

While following the steep slope of the mountain road and touching the hill occupied by the enemy, the commander of the fifth company walked to Xia Yuan's side and asked.

"Yes." Xia Yuan nodded.

"Great, with your words, then the next task will be much easier!" The commander of the fifth company knew Xia Yuan's marksmanship, and he said that if he could, then he would definitely be able to knock out the enemy's machine gun fire point, so that they would not need to be suppressed by the enemy's machine gun fire point, let alone the soldiers of the demolition team who would win the enemy's fire point with their lives.

Soon, the two platoons were hidden in the ravine on the left side of the mountain, and the commander of the fifth company found a place that was still shining, checked the time on his watch, and after making sure that there were only a few minutes left, he immediately ordered the soldiers to start attacking the mountain!

They had already reconnoitred the enemy on the hill, and the enemy had not planted mines along the way, only the enemy's machine-gun fire point built from trees on the hill.

Two platoons were scattered between the mountains, and as the whistle sounded, the fighters began to attack the enemy on the hill in groups of threes.

At this moment, just as the commander of the fifth company thought, the enemy had already fallen asleep, and the only two enemies were on guard in the position.

The two of them looked at cigarettes and chatted about what had happened in the past few days, most of which had to do with the Chinese soldiers on the opposite side.

China, as they know, is very backward and poor.

That's how their commander described the enemy.

It's a bunch of savages who can use firearms.

However, in the past few days, the situation on the Korean battlefield has changed dramatically, and the invincible US military, the world's largest power, has been beaten by what their commander called "a group of savages who can use firearms."

But so far, the enemy has captured Feihu Mountain and is firmly entrenched in Feihu Mountain, and their troops have been fighting for two days, but they have not been able to knock down the enemy on the mountain.

Coupled with the defeat of the war on the front line, and the fact that it was an evil invasion war itself, many of them were war-weary, not in a high mood for fighting, and had low morale.

"I want to go home, I miss my wife, she's pregnant, damn it, maybe we shouldn't be here

。」

"You're right, this damn North Korea, it's so cold, I miss my fireplace, I like to sit in front of the fireplace and read."

"I wish this damn war was over soon, I want to go home."

The two American soldiers took out their cigarette butts and complained, but they didn't know that in the dark field between the ravines, a group of volunteer soldiers were quietly approaching.

"Two guard posts." Xia Yuan swept over with his eagle eye and night vision eye, and found the location of the two US military sentry posts.

"Where?" The commander of the fifth company was surprised, and when he looked around, the enemy's position was dark.

"Right ahead, I can see them, only two sentry posts, and I can see that these American troops are relaxed." Xia Yuan whispered.

"You two of you, go up and finish off their sentry, can you do it?" The commander of the fifth company immediately changed the combat plan.

In the past, they were not clear about the sentry posts of the US military, and most of them were exposed in the process of touching the platoon, and they engaged the enemy.

Now, Xia Yuan can actually see the US troops on the position, so there is no need to rush forward directly and risk being exposed.

By taking out the enemy posts, their warriors can silently enter the enemy positions.

"Yes!" Xia Yuan nodded.

"Okay, Yang Dexing, Lu Shengrong, you two follow him together!"

These two soldiers are scouts of the Fifth Company, and most of those who can be scouts have strong combat capabilities, strong anti-reconnaissance awareness, and even very strong fighting capabilities.

"Yes!"

Yang Dexing and Lu Shengrong replied in unison.

Watch as the trio flips over the anticline and approaches the enemy position.

The commander of the fifth company immediately ordered: "Prepare for battle!"
