Chapter 79‖ 537.7 Heights

Early the next morning, just after dawn, Yu Danian, the deputy company commander who was keeping vigil outside the tunnel, led the communications soldiers of the 148th Regiment into the tunnel.

Feeling the darkness to find the company commander Wu Shigui and the instructor Li Yiming, and then the communication soldier spoke.

"Company Commander Wu, Instructor Li, and the regimental commander asked me to convey the order.

Today, our army will launch an attack on the enemy troops stationed on the 537.7 heights, and your company, the reconnaissance company of the 45th Division, plus a platoon of the engineer company, will launch an offensive on the 537.7 heights.

When the time comes, our army will concentrate artillery fire to cover your attack, and you can prepare now!"

Wu Shigui and Li Yiming heard what the signal soldiers said, and hurriedly assembled the team.

Seeing that the Sixth Company was already assembling the team, the signal corps returned to the regimental headquarters to resume his life.

After a while, dozens of heavy artillery pieces of our army and the Katyusha rocket artillery regiment opened fire at the same time.

Dozens of shells and rockets smashed on the enemy fortifications on the 537.7 heights, and the South Korean defenders stationed on them were directly defeated.

Our troops fired about a base number of shells, and then began to extend the artillery fire.

Seeing the extension of artillery fire, Wu Shigui ordered the soldiers to attack.

The fighters heard the order and followed the bullet point to attack the 537.7 heights where the enemy was stationed.

The 537.7 high ground terrain is simple, easy to attack and difficult to defend, and the six companies participating in the attack, the reconnaissance company of the 45th division and the engineer company, and the three companies are attacking like a tide, plus the soldiers are brave in battle.

It took only 20 minutes to capture all positions and defeat the 1st and 2nd Battalions of the 32nd Regiment garrisoned by South Korea.

When our army cleared the remnants of the South Korean army on the 537.7 heights, the three companies that were cleaning the battlefield.

At this time, the signal soldier came to convey the order again, and the company commanders of the three companies walked up to the signal soldier, and Wu Shigui asked.

"Correspondent Lin, why are you back again, do you have a combat mission?"

"The regimental commander ordered your three companies to garrison on Heights 537.7 and told you to dig the tunnel.

In addition, the regiment commander also asked you to send a squad of soldiers to the 597.7 heights to assist the eighth company of the 134th regiment in attacking!" Correspondent Lin immediately replied.

Speaking of transferring people, the company commander Wu Shigui immediately thought of Zheng Zhenchuan and his team.

Seeing Zheng Zhenchuan not far away, he was busy loading the magazine, beckoned to him, and motioned for him to come over.

Zheng Zhenchuan took the magazine and bullet belt, walked towards the company commander Wu Shigui, and asked when he arrived.

"What's the matter, company commander, have a mission to call me over?"

Company Commander Wu Shigui first introduced the correspondent Lin Youliang to Zheng Zhenchuan, and then spoke.

"This is not the commander of the 148th Regiment, let's send a squad of soldiers to the 597.7 heights to assist the eighth company of the 134th Regiment to attack the enemy.

I see that the soldiers are all tired, and after thinking about it, I finally decided that I should send you with the special operations team!

Chuanzi, you go over there and fight hard, don't fall into the reputation of our 40th Division of the 118th Army!"

After saying this, the company commander Wu Shigui hammered Zheng Zhenchuan on the shoulder a few times, which was regarded as encouragement before parting.

When Zheng Zhenchuan heard Wu Shigui say this, his face turned pale, he stood up straight, raised his hand and saluted, and then opened his mouth to promise.

"Please rest assured, the company commander will ensure that the mission will be completed!"

After speaking, he turned his head and called the team members, followed the correspondent Lin Youliang, and set off for the 597.7 heights.

On the way to the march, Zheng Zhenchuan thought as he walked, the eldest brother Zheng Zhenguo turned out to be a platoon commander in the 8th Company of the 134th Regiment.

If he hadn't been injured before, I guess I'd be able to see him this time.

Thinking of this, Zheng Zhenchuan couldn't help sighing, then shook his head, and quickly put down these thoughts for the time being.

After all, this is a battlefield, and if you are not careful, you may lose your life.

With the sound of "boom" explosions, the team soon came to the front of the 597.7 highland tunnel.

At this time, just in time for the extended firing of artillery fire, soldiers crawled out of the mouth of the tunnel one by one, and under the urging of Zhang Guangyi, the commander of the eighth company, they quickly rushed to the No. 0 position where the enemy was stationed.

When the soldiers in the tunnel came out, Zhang Guangyi, the commander of the eighth company, looked at Zheng Zhenchuan and a group of people and said hurriedly.

"You are here to support the team, now that our army has begun to extend its artillery fire, I can't care about being polite to you, we are about to attack the No. 1 position, you should follow!"

After saying this, Zhang Guangyi took the Bobosha submachine gun and rushed towards the No. 1 position where the enemy was stationed.

Seeing this, Zheng Zhenchuan didn't care about resting, and rushed over with people.

Under the cover of artillery fire, our troops quickly took down position No. 1.

Then Zhang Guangyi, the commander of the eighth company, didn't care about cleaning up the battlefield, and ordered the soldiers to continue to attack the No. 3 position on the main peak.

As a result, as soon as they came to the No. 3 position, the sound of continuous firing came from the east side, "Dada, Dada, Dada......".

A bunker blocked the progress of our troops.

Zhang Guangyi, the commander of the Eighth Company, saw this situation and immediately organized manpower to blast the bunker.

Unfortunately, the two explosions were unsuccessful, and the machine gunner Lai Fajun, who was responsible for covering the explosion, was injured at this time.

I saw the machine gunner Lai Fajun pick up a grenade and rush towards the bunker with his wounds.

On the way to the bunker, he was wounded in several places, but he kept crawling until he was two meters away from the bunker.

Then he lay on the ground and rested for a while, accumulated the last physical strength, jumped up, and even threw himself on the bunker with a grenade, and died with a loud bang!

Seeing that Lai Fajun's flesh and blood were blurred by the explosion, Zhang Guangyi, the commander of the 8th Company, roared angrily with red eyes, "Rush!"

Without a bunker to block the footsteps of the soldiers, the No. 3 main peak position was quickly captured by our army.

At this time, the whole company, from top to bottom, had already killed red eyes, and did not rest, and rushed towards the enemy's position No. 9.

During the attack on position No. 9, it was blocked by intensive fire from the enemy's main bunker.

This main bunker was built by hollowing out a boulder, and due to the angle constraints, the 15th Army concentrated more than 10 artillery bombardments, but it was not able to destroy it.

Long Shichang, a Miao warrior, rushed forward with a blaster.

Just as he was approaching the bunker, an enemy shell exploded next to him, breaking his left leg up to the knee.

But he still stubbornly crawled towards the bunker, and finally climbed in front of the bunker.

Long Shichang pushed the blaster out of the shooting hole, and the enemy horse in the bunker pushed the blaster out.

Long Shichang pushed inward again, the two sides were deadlocked, and Long Shichang used his chest to resist the blaster.

At this moment, the blaster exploded, and the bunker disappeared in the firelight with him, and the soldiers of the Eighth Company, enduring their grief, immediately launched an attack on the No. 9 position, and after a while, they captured the No. 9 position.

After capturing the position, the soldiers were so tired that they didn't even bother to clean the battlefield, and sat down directly on the ground.

Zheng Zhenchuan looked at the soldiers of the Eighth Company, and admired it in his heart, it was worthy of being the team that came out of the guard battalion of the 129th Division of the original Eighth Route Army.

The courtyard began with Lao Jia's accident
