Chapter 144 The Chinese Army Soul (Part 2)
"Use one force to force the enemy from the front, send another force to carry concentrated anti-infantry mines, penetrate the enemy's rear, and set them on the path that the enemy must pass. When the attack is launched, our army must carry out close combat and night fighting.
The fine tradition is to introduce the U.S. military into our army’s preset battlefield to complete this annihilation mission..."
This is the battle order issued by the regiment headquarters to Lao Ge yesterday evening. In the battle last night, the reinforcement regiment invested a whole reinforcement battalion. Under the command of the commander of the first battalion Luo Wenshan, starting from around 16:00 yesterday, the troops headed north
The "Mad Cow" company-level battle group of the 1st U.S. Cavalry Division and its attached allied forces launched an encirclement and annihilation campaign.
The regiment and battalion commander Luo Wenshan gave the company led by Lao Ge two tasks. The first was to rush to build fortifications, and the second was to recharge their batteries. When darkness fell, they used a rapid offensive to force the remaining American troops to retreat.
The mine array deployed against our army, and then through the sudden detonation of many anti-infantry mines, together with the interdicting troops interspersed behind the enemy's rear, completely turned this "mad cow" into a dead cow!
After receiving the order, Lao Ge immediately organized his troops, braved bursts of powerful artillery fire from the US military, and quickly built the position. He then handed it over to the second company that was marching in a hurry, and then the company retreated for repairs. At the same time, the joint attack began
, although the superiors only asked the second company to hold on for half an hour.
But in just half an hour, the Second Company suffered heavy casualties. The overwhelming artillery fire and the constantly circling US fighter planes were like bloodthirsty beasts, devouring the volunteer soldiers on the position one by one. Although the Second Company finally completed the blockade
mission, but nearly one-third of the entire company collapsed!
Seeing this, Lao Ge knew that the battle that night must be bloody and tragic. However, what Lao Ge never expected was that he was mentally prepared and only discovered that he had attacked the US military at midnight.
That kind of psychological preparation is far less cruel than the real battle situation.
The large-caliber heavy machine gun bullets flew in all directions, and the hail-like mortar shells fell in a large area. The company was hit so hard that it had to slow down the attack rhythm. However, the slowdown in the attack rhythm this time almost caused the Yi Company to be ruined.
On Highway 9, because the US military took advantage of the slowdown in the attack of the first company to quickly open the distance between the two armies, the overwhelming artillery shells and bombs immediately covered the first company completely...
"Little Zhang, if you hadn't blown up the first machine gun position and opened the passage, there might not have been any subsequent victory, so... I'd like to toast you with this first glass of wine!"
Lao Ge looked at a khaki military cap torn by shrapnel. In his flashing eyes, he kept seeing the young and naughty face of the little man, and at the last moment, dragging his broken leg and seriously injured body to fight with the enemy's machine gun.
The heroic scene of the team dying together, closing his eyes for the last time and gently spilling the Laobaigan in the cup under the tattered military hat.
"And you, Wang Dazhuang, I always criticize you for not using your brain during training, and it's the same on the battlefield. You can't just use bayonets while holding those two American devils, but you can pull grenades..."
In front of a half-remaining military medal, Lao Ge filled the glass with wine again, his tone was as usual, as if Wang Dazhuang, that stupid soldier, was standing in front of him, looking at him carelessly.
Smiling heartily...
In this way, every time Lao Ge came to a relic, he poured a glass of wine and talked for a while, sometimes very gently, sometimes a little harshly, sometimes laughing, sometimes with some trivial complaints.
If they were outside the camp, some people might think that Lao Ge was chatting and laughing with his soldiers as usual, chatting and joking with a few close friends who had similar interests.
However, only when you enter it, you will find that all this is just a silent monologue by Lao Ge himself, and that his soldiers and his comrades are now only the simple relics on the white tablecloth.
However, these relics are like living soldiers in Lao Ge's eyes...
"Brothers, we won with a total of fifty-seven anti-infantry mines. The shocking effect made even the American devils think that there was an unfathomable artillery group behind us, so that even his reinforcements did not dare to take a step closer.
When the head of the department found out, he said in three words, 'Great job'!
Chief Shisi is right, you are all good, and the motherland behind you will be proud of you. Even decades or hundreds of years from now, our descendants will raise their eyebrows when hearing these deeds.
Thumbs up, I give you a nice compliment. Today... I'm a little verbose. Okay, brothers, drink this glass of wine and go all the way. When the victory comes, I, Lao Ge, will never come back without being drunk with you!
"
After saying that, Lao Ge raised his neck and drank all the wine in the glass. When he put the glass down, his bloodshot eyes were as sharp as last night. But the moment he turned around, two torrents of water burst out of his eyes.
, burst into tears...
"salute!"
When Lao Ge ran out of the tent crying like a child, Qin Dongmin, the leader of the strengthening regiment, and others lined up in the cold wind, all with tears in their eyes, and solemnly walked towards the black tent.
Seeing the military salute, Lao Ge wiped the tears on his face, walked into the team, stood still, and slowly raised his right hand to the level of his eyebrows.
The north wind is howling and the cold wind is raging, as gentle as the sad music played on the ground, telling the vivid deeds and lost lives. They, the young Chinese volunteer soldiers, have practiced the leap of faith with their sacrifice and blood.
The oath made during the Yalu River: Resist U.S. aggression and aid Korea, defend our country!
…
A few days later, the fierce collision between the reinforcement group and the US military in the Route 9 area in northern North Korea was sent back to the country in the form of a battle briefing. For the sake of confidentiality, the public version was naturally the popular version: "We are fighting the enemy bravely, the American devils."
A fixed routine of escaping with your tail between your legs.
Only those who have reached a certain level can access more detailed details. In this battle, the first battalion of the reinforced regiment used complex tactical actions to defeat and annihilate two Korean infantry companies, an American company-level battle group and a Turkish
The platoon was strengthened and a total of 269 enemies were killed and 107 captured.
Our army suffered 237 casualties, of which the main offensive company suffered the heaviest casualties. The entire organization was basically disabled. However, the impact of this battle was huge. Due to the use of new anti-infantry mines in the hit, the US military mistakenly thought that our artillery group was
Therefore, I dare not move forward rashly...
A similar detailed battle briefing was quickly obtained by Bai Yi in Baiyun Factory. It was personally directed by the head of the General Logistics Department and forwarded to Bai Yi for reading. However, after reading the briefing, Bai Yi was not as moved by the victory on the front line as others.
But while I was overjoyed, my heart seemed to be blocked by something, making me feel unspeakably dull.
I had no choice but to take a deep breath of cigarette, and then looked at the dark sky in the cold wind. After a long time, I firmly said to Chen Yaoyang and others behind me: "Our anti-aircraft weapons can't be delayed any longer!"
