After occupying the enemy's garrison in Sansuo, the soldiers were completely exhausted, but they dared not lie down at all, and they would fall asleep as soon as their heads drooped.Although the nearby high ground has been taken down, it can only hold here now, and the specific combat missions have to wait for the regiment to issue.This time, Lao Dan didn't dare to be careless at all. He ordered the 2nd and 3rd companies not to stay, and immediately started working on the two hills, and the 1st company went directly to the front to take charge of the position.
Looking at the exhausted soldiers who were in a trance and drowsy, Lao Dan's heart ached into a ball.The cooking squad leaders of each platoon directly lifted several steaming cauldrons up the mountain, wanting them to eat while digging trenches, but the soldiers were exhausted at the moment and just wanted to sleep, looking at the pot full of meat and vegetables, where Can you eat it?Wang Hao sat leaning against a big rock, his face was pale, he squeezed his chest with his hands, coughed continuously, and spit out a pool of blood on the ground.As soon as he lit a cigarette, it was soaked with blood, but he only took a breath, and then began to give orders again.
Lao Dan followed the soldiers up the mountain.On the way, he felt a little light in his body, as if his arms and legs were not his own.The scenery in front of him also changed color, bright for a while, gray for a while, and the voices in his ears were even more strange. He couldn't hear a word of Li Sanpi who was close at hand, but Chen Yanbin, who was ten meters away, was panting. I can hear you clearly.He could even hear the rubbing sound of the eyelids and eyeballs, the eyelids seemed to be two huge gates, it took a lot of effort to open them.The staggering figures of the soldiers looked like ghosts under the scorching sun, and the sound made by dozens of pairs of rubber shoes on the dry and hard hillside was very ear-piercing. He unconsciously covered his ears, and when he pressed his hands on them, he was startled. Jumping, it was like touching two ice cubes with both hands, and the two ears were already frozen and unconscious.
"Yan Bin! Give me the binoculars, you go and send someone to see if Commander Zhu and the others have arrived, don't go the wrong way!"
This place in Sansuoli is inconspicuous on the map, but even recruits can tell that this palm-sized place is just stuck on a road from north to south. If the few hills here are not knocked down, any passing vehicles will Both soldiers and personnel will be hit by crossfire from multiple directions and have nowhere to hide.As soon as they arrived at the third institute, the soldiers understood the meaning of this life-threatening run, so although they were exhausted to the extreme, they did not dare to relax at all.In order to help each other, Yang Beiwan invented the method of slapping. If anyone is sleepy, he will yell, and the person next to him will come over and slap himself, so that both the sleepy person and the person who slapped him will not be sleepy.For a while, everyone, regardless of official rank, started to fight one after another, and the sound of slaps on the hills continued one after another.Under the leadership of several company commanders, the soldiers started digging trenches and repairing fortifications on the top of the hill while slowly drinking water and eating. The 3rd company has already gone down to plant landmines and dig pits. Only the 2nd company and the 1st company are working on the hill. The 4th company is ordered to sleep and take over in three hours.After receiving the order to sleep, more than 200 people from the 4th company fell to the ground and fell asleep.
The food of the Koreans was so unpalatable that even though the soldiers were hungry, they still couldn't swallow it.The cooks tried to cook some porridge for the soldiers to drink.They found a leeward place on the mountain and began to dig a hole. The rock in the soil was too hard. Several cooks worked for a long time with small shovels, but they didn't dig a hole. They were so anxious there. Go round and round.Later, I simply stopped digging, moved a few big stones, put the pot on it, and put clean snow in it, and finally I was able to light the fire and cook.
To Lao Dan's shame, in less than two hours, most of the D regiment, as well as Zhu Tianhua and most of the regiment-level commanders and fighters rushed to the third office.According to the chief of staff of the regiment, the reconnaissance battalion has made very good route instructions on the road they passed, and the troops behind can see it clearly, so there is no need to hesitate at all, just run forward, but this road is too difficult to walk , Many comrades died on the road due to overwork.The road signs were arranged by Wang Hao, and Lao Dan admired his care.Zhu Tianhua was so tired that his legs and feet cramped, and his voice, which was as thick as a cow's throat, also changed. When he saw Lao Dan, he couldn't walk anymore, and fell down on the ground next to a tree.Lao Dan and Wang Hao rushed to help him.Zhu Tianhua opened his eyes with dilated pupils, gasped and said, what the hell road are you walking?Crossing mountains and crossing rivers is not counted, and let Lao Tzu roll off the donkey slope and jump off the cliff, almost smashing Lao Tzu's more than 150 catties into meatloaf!Wang Hao smiled wryly and said that there was no way. Head Zhu, you can look back at the map and you will know. In order to save time, we basically walked in a straight line.Zhu Tianhua smoked a cigarette, his face calmed down, and he turned around and ordered:
"The director of the report hastened to send a report to the division headquarters and the military headquarters. Our department has arrived at the third office and requested the next combat mission. Lao Dan, take me up the mountain!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a burst of gunshots from the hill guarded by Yang Beiwan. Zhu Tianhua, Lao Dan and others were startled, and hurried to the top of the hill.I saw that half of Yang Beiwan's soldiers were digging trenches desperately, while the other half had already opened fire down the mountain.Lao Dan raised his binoculars and looked down. He saw more than a hundred devils in American military uniforms running back. He raised his head and looked north. On the opposite side of the mountain that had turned over from the side last night, there was a black cloud. The crowd is emerging from the ridge.On the far side of the road to the east, the traffic and people could not be seen rolling in, there were thousands of people!There was a buzzing in his head, and all the fatigue in his body disappeared at once.
"Hurry up and send the report! The enemy is trying to retreat through the three institutes! Our department asks for instructions!" Zhu Tianhua shouted loudly.
"Get ready to fight! Hurry up and dig out the trenches, the devils are coming! The devils are coming! Regiment commander and battalion commander, hurry down!"
Yang Beiwan and Li Sanpi shouted desperately on the ground.They were all battle-tested veterans, but at this moment, the eyes of the two of them almost popped out of their sockets. Facing a formidable enemy like a bursting embankment, they were very nervous.So far, Lao Dan, like the soldiers, does not know what the next specific task is?The radio station in the regiment has been keeping the radio silent. Who is the enemy in front of us?How many troops are there?All unknown.But it is obvious that the reconnaissance battalion crossed mountains and rivers this time and ran for 80 kilometers overnight, and it was indeed in front of most of the enemies who were retreating south.
Behind the enemy, several armies of the Volunteer Army have opened up their stances and are attacking. If the enemy can be stopped here, until the arrival of the C Division and the 38th Army, a military situation of north-south pincer attack will be formed against the enemy, forming an attack on our army. The most favorable situation for annihilating the enemy.The reconnaissance battalion occupied the top of the mountain first, and most of the D regiment arrived later. In less than a day, most of the C division could also arrive here.As long as the strength of this division can block the enemy for a few days, the A Division and B Division of the 38th Army will take down several strategic locations around them. It is difficult.Boss Peng's powerful troops will use the most powerful force to deal a devastating blow to the enemies in the encirclement.
"Sanpi, don't panic! Continue to build the fortifications, first let the 1st company stand up. The devils don't know how many people we have, and they won't attack them as soon as they come up. To deal with the devils' tanks, planes and cannons, there are no trenches."
Lao Dan ordered the 2nd company to step up work, and at the same time let Yang Beiwan take the 1st company to rush to the 3rd company's defense line immediately, replacing the elephant's 3rd company to stop the attack. The elephant immediately organized the blasting team to go down the hillside and plant explosives. Leading the blasting team, he buried all the explosives carried by a company in the crevices of the stones on one side of the road at one time, and waited for the arrival of enemy vehicles and tanks.
"Old Dan, you and Wang Hao come down for me! You can't stay here! This is just the beginning."
Zhu Tianhua led a group of commanders down the mountain.At this time, everyone's sleepiness disappeared and they didn't feel tired.He quickly trotted into the temporary command post.Telephones and radio stations have been placed, and the defensive positions on several hills can be contacted.
"The battalion commander? What about our 4th company?"
The 4th company commander Geng Xin asked Lao Dan with blood-red eyes, and Lao Dan said angrily:
"Didn't I let you sleep? Who told you to come over? When I use you, I will naturally kick you up!"
"Battalion Commander, when the gun is fired here, how can the soldiers still sleep? They all gathered there consciously. Battalion Commander, let us guard this hill. When Li Sanpi and the others dug the hole, we were already asleep anyway. It's been half an hour! You can't let Li Sanpi scrape the good land alone!"
"Go on to sleep! Let him come down now, isn't it killing him? Besides, his 2nd company has just eaten and drunk, and you haven't yet? Our companies have to take turns to go up to free up the D regiment The 1st company and the 3rd company also cooperate in this way when other troops sleep, don't worry, you will fight the battle!"
Wang Hao finally persuaded Geng Xin to come back.Zhu Tianhua was already busy, and the newly set up radio station finally received an order from his superiors: stay at the third station and wait for the reinforcements to arrive!Be nailed there like a nail!
The radio operator shouted at Zhu Tianhua at the top of his lungs, and the communicators rushed to deliver orders to each battalion, and each combat unit entered an unprecedented state of tension.The units of Regiment D who followed were also exhausted, and they didn't have time to eat like the reconnaissance battalion.Together with Zhu Tianhua and several battalion commanders, coupled with the initiative of Lao Dan and Wang Hao, they decided to let the reconnaissance battalion stand up for a while. The 1st Battalion will be the reserve team of the reconnaissance battalion, but they must first use their own artillery support for the reconnaissance battalion. superior. The 3rd Battalion went to the defensive position on the east side as a reserve team on two hills.Each battalion and company should send out vanguard soldiers who specialize in attacking tanks and mechanized targets, in groups of three, and each group is equipped with an explosive package, trying to blow up several leading tanks in the middle of the road and block the tanks and trucks behind.It is said that the artillery of the U.S. military is very powerful, and each battle sequence must strictly abide by the echelon support plan, and do not provide large-scale reinforcements until the moment of tension, so as to avoid unnecessary losses.
The pioneers of the 1st Battalion were too courageous. They took advantage of the enemy not turning over from the other side of the mountain, and quickly dug holes beside the road, which made the hearts of the soldiers in the reconnaissance battalion thump.They lined up, and soon dug four pits that were as wide as one person. A soldier actually squatted in with a pack of explosives. They put a wooden plank on top of his head. There was a hole in the middle of the plank. Just like that, other people covered the wooden planks with soil and stones, put some weeds on the surface to cover the holes, and scattered the dug earth and rocks around.Soon the four pits were all gone.
The two reconnaissance teams that the enemy was searching in front were beaten back by Yang Beiwan and Li Sanpi. They didn't seem to care too much about the trouble in front of them, they just dispatched about a company of troops and fired a mortar on the mountain Just start climbing.Li Sanpi was upset at the first sight, and underestimated me so much?He ordered not to shoot, and said that he would see what these guys looked like, and that none of them would be let go.From the perspective of the soldiers of the 2nd company of the reconnaissance battalion, they have never seen an enemy fighting like this, let alone an enemy retreating like this.I saw them chatting and laughing, while slowly climbing up without a queue, and some of them stopped to smoke halfway.These guys are all big and big, with big donkeys, and their guns are not pointed upwards, but slung across their shoulders.When they approached, the soldiers opened their mouths wide - their skins were not all white, but their eyes were all colored, and there were golden hairs, yellow hairs and gray hairs on the backs of their hands, as if the troops were fighting against them back then. Bandits entered Monkey Mountain.When he saw the large cigar dangling from the mouth of the man in front of him and the American letters on his shoulder, Li Sanpi shouted:
"Do it for me!"
The sudden rain of bullets on the top of the mountain made the group of American soldiers frightened, and more than a dozen people fell in response.However, the others did not run after being frightened, but automatically formed a battle formation and began to charge upwards.Li Sanpi was happy, and ordered the soldiers to throw down the captured American grenades like a stone hitting a dog. Every grenade fell into the crowd, blowing up the enemy.None of these American grenades were thrown indiscriminately, and none of them fell to the ground and bounced around without exploding.These dying American soldiers finally understood that the group of people on the top of the mountain was definitely not a rabble of North Koreans, maybe they were the Chinese People's Volunteers they had heard of!But how did they fly behind their ass?
The living American soldiers left the corpses of their comrades and ran away.The escape speed was quite fast, and even Li Sanpi's fighters said that if they let go of their feet, they would definitely not be slow.Before the soldiers had time to smoke a cigarette, a row of American shells flew over with the sound of whistles. The shells had such a large caliber that they shook the mountain.Li Sanpi quickly ordered the soldiers to evacuate into the deep trenches, and seeing the dense fire on the top of the mountain, everyone felt a little nervous: their artillery fire came so fast, and the shots were so accurate!This time the platoon bombardment lasted half an hour, and almost all the densely covered pine trees on the top of the mountain were blown away, and the rest were also caught in a raging fire.As soon as the sound of the guns subsided, the soldiers rushed up to clear the trenches and threw out the burning pine trees.Looking up, the American devils had already rushed to the mountainside, and enemy tanks and armored vehicles also rumbled over.As soon as a few shots were fired, there were more than a dozen Devil planes in the sky, and they swooped down towards the mountain without restraint while strafing.From the foot of the mountain, Lao Dan saw that the beautiful mountain top had turned into a hell of fire, like a tomb that had been set on fire.
No matter where the soldiers of the reconnaissance battalion come from, no matter how many battles they have participated in, no matter how many big scenes they have seen, no one has ever seen an enemy with such powerful firepower!The bullets shot up at close range from the bottom of the mountain are all kinds of submachine guns and semi-automatics. There are countless light and heavy machine guns to suppress the firepower. All kinds of artillery of different calibers, suppressed mortars, and grenadiers on armored vehicles have beaten the mountain into a A sea of flames with nowhere to go.The soldiers could only shrink themselves into a ball, trying to hide in the trenches that were almost flattened, and retracted into the dead corner of the shock waves and shrapnel, but the continuous artillery fire was everywhere, and the soldiers had almost nowhere to hide.
When Li Sanpi was running between positions to boost morale, he was knocked unconscious by a bomb, and he was injured in many places. The 2nd company had to be commanded by the deputy company commander who had already had a lottery on his head. The 2nd company suffered heavy casualties. In order to prevent the enemy from climbing up, the surviving soldiers shot down uninterruptedly against the powerful firepower of the enemy.American planes dropped bombs accurately on the positions.Lao Dan saw through the binoculars that almost a platoon of soldiers was shattered in an explosion and flew into the smoky midair.Lao Dan frantically shook the phone number 2 above, but no one answered it at the moment.Soon, Li Sanpi and dozens of wounded soldiers were carried down the mountain and sent to the emergency department.Li Sanpi's wound bared his teeth and jumped wildly, looking very scary, but Lao Dan judged from his experience that his injury was not fatal.According to the soldiers who carried Li Sanpi down the mountain, more than half of the soldiers of the 2nd company had been killed or injured!But the devil was pressed on the mountainside, and he couldn't rush up for a while. The 1st company has not yet been heavily charged by the enemy, but has been bombed.
"Geng Xin, let the 4th company prepare to go up!"
The 2nd Company, which was able to fight well, suffered such heavy casualties in just an instant!Although he was prepared for this, Lao Dan still couldn't believe this fact.The American artillery fire was too fierce, much fiercer and more accurate than the firepower of the South Korean troops.He remembered the time when he fought the devils in Wuhan and Changde. At that time, the firepower of the devils was already at its peak in his opinion, but compared with the three-dimensional firepower coverage of the Americans, it cannot be compared in terms of quantity and quality. No wonder the devils In the end it fell into the hands of the Americans!
"Lao Dan, let me go up with the 4th company. You stare at the 3rd company. No matter what you do here, you are condescending to fight the infantry. They have to face the armored forces on the other side. They can't miss it. If they are stabbed by the American tanks, they will be finished." It's the ball!"
Chen Yanbin, who was always indifferent, also frowned at this moment, and his words became serious.
"Old Chen, you can't go up yet. Although the 2nd company suffered heavy losses and Sanpi was injured, the position has not collapsed. The deputy company commander is an old party member. If he can't hold it, he will notify us. It's too dangerous for you to go up like this , there is no need, why don't you go and emphasize the battle arrangement of the 1st company?"
Wang Hao made an opinion, and both Lao Dan and Chen Yanbin thought it was reasonable.Although the enemy's attack is very fierce, but at this pass, you must trust the soldiers!Just like Zhu Tianhua's trust in the reconnaissance battalion.Moreover, the position guarded by the 1st company is the weakest link. How do you know that the devils are not slamming everything?
Lao Dan brought the combat staff of the regiment headquarters to the position of the 3rd company.Compared with the life-and-death struggle in the 2nd company position, it seems that this side has not yet started. The enemy's tanks and armored vehicles have already appeared, and a dozen engineers in front are clearing mines on the road.They dug out more than a dozen buried mines, disposed of them and threw them into the ditch smartly. They probably also sensed that there was an ambush on the mountain. Several tanks fired a few shots from time to time, one of which was falling On the observation post not far from Lao Dan, the three soldiers were instantly torn into pieces by a ball of white light, and a rain of blood flew over and sprinkled on the people around them.Everyone hid themselves motionless. The combat staff officer of the regiment was a college student of the Military and Political College. When he saw a piece of red and white falling on his clothes, he hurriedly took out a piece of yellow cotton cloth and wiped it carefully, wrinkling it as he wiped it. eyebrow.Lao Dan and Wang Hao looked at each other, disgusted by his actions.Lao Dan found a rosy white palm that was still steaming, and felt pain in his heart, so he picked it up carefully, dug a small pit with his hands on the loose soil in front of him, and buried it in it. , and then patted the soil firmly with his hands, and raised his head, he happened to see Wang Hao giving him a smile.
The enemy's tank had already reached the side of the cliff, and the elephant immediately ordered to detonate the explosives buried in the crevice of the cliff. The rope was pulled, but there was no sound.The elephant was furious, and asked the second platoon leader to come and ask. The 2nd platoon leader was sweating profusely. His neck was scratched by a branch, and he was wrapped with a white towel. He said that the wire was probably broken by the sharp rocks on the cliff, and he immediately took a few soldiers to connect it.The elephant is sweating profusely, which means that the soldiers buried in the ground are going to blow up the tanks without cover and the enemy tanks are still moving in. Facing the tank machine gunners in front and the infantry covering around , which is tantamount to suicide.It's too late to connect the wires. The enemy will see clearly whoever goes down the wires. They will definitely not be able to survive under random gunshots. What should we do?
After a few minutes, the enemy tanks were very close to the soldiers in ambush.A figure suddenly appeared on the opposite cliff, holding a bag of explosives, swinging straight down from the top of the mountain with a rope.The devil found him immediately, and the soldier slid to the gap where the explosives were buried. Although a bloody hole was punched out of his body, he still pulled the explosive bag in his arms.Lao Dan suddenly saw the white towel around the man's neck flying up into the sky like a kite, and then realized that this man was the second platoon leader of the one just now.
The Americans suddenly realized that the tank was about to turn around immediately. With an earth-shattering explosion, the explosive package detonated the explosives in the crevice of the cliff, and the huge explosion blasted half of the mountain.In the shock like a crack in the ground, tens of thousands of falling rocks cut the tanks and vehicles on the road into two sections, rushing to and fro, and the devils walking on the side of the mountain were swallowed up in the blink of an eye.Except for the five tanks and vehicles in front, the enemies behind were temporarily blocked by the stones that fell from the sky.Accompanied by the explosion, several soldiers hiding in the ground jumped out in unison, ran towards the enemy tank that was circling nearby, and threw the smoking explosive package under the stunned expression of the Americans. under the tank.
"Fire, cover! Avenge the 2nd platoon leader!"
The elephant gave the order with tears in his eyes, and all kinds of weapons on the mountain opened fire on the panicked enemy. The tanks shattered in the flames, and a blown-up tank turret smashed heavily on a truck full of US troops. On the ground, it and the soldiers on it were smashed into cakes abruptly. The mortars of the 3rd company violently bombarded the enemy's infantry, and the silent valley became a cemetery full of corpses in the blink of an eye.Lao Dan was stunned by the masterpieces of the soldiers. Two platoons of soldiers from the 3rd Company had rushed down the mountain from the side, smashing the devils who were caught off guard. The enemy fired flamethrowers while retreating, and burned a wall of fire on the road. None of the fighters came out.
Five burning tanks, more than a dozen scrapped cars, and more than a hundred corpses were left on the battlefield.The enemy retreated.
The positions of the 2nd and 3rd companies have temporarily calmed down, but everyone understands that the Americans will not give up, and the most powerful ones are yet to come.The bombing and impact on the 1st company's position has never stopped, and it is impossible to withdraw it. No matter how heavy the casualties are, we must stick to it.Lao Dan had no idea whether the reconnaissance battalion could stop the tide of Americans. Seeing the obstacles that had been blown up just now, the Americans had already pushed away with construction vehicles under the cover of artillery fire.In the wind and snow, dozens of tanks and a large group of infantry in the distance can be vaguely gathered.There are more and more planes rushing towards the position on the top of the hill.
Americans are desperate.
Behind Lao Dan, the battalions of the D Regiment were ready to fight and were ready to take over the reconnaissance battalion at any time.This is destined to be a bloody battle in the dark.The powerful firepower of the Americans frightened him, and the blood in his body was flowing at a high speed. This may be his last battle. Perhaps this battle has been doomed since he joined the army more than ten years ago...
More than ten years later, whenever Lao Dan recalled the battle in the third institute, he would tremble involuntarily, and occasionally shed tears quietly.This battle was so cruel and heroic that he began to forget the bloody battle he had experienced before.The red and bloody memory of Sansoli erected a tall tombstone in his mind, blocking everything in his memory.
That's horrible!
The Americans and the South Koreans who came later launched an attack on the positions of the D regiment's battalions like crazy. There was no interruption in the attack. All kinds of artillery fire continued, and the planes bombed day and night.The overwhelming impact of the enemy made the soldiers unforgettable for a lifetime.Lao Dan looked northward from the high ground, and it was a cruel and magnificent scene that he had never seen before. During the day, the beautiful rivers and mountains had turned into a hell of blood and fire.The huge sound made by all kinds of weapons intertwined, rushed into the sky like the Yellow River cracking, shaking the earth and shaking the mountains.In the valley that stretches for hundreds of miles, the trees all over the mountains are burning like billions of bright torches.Thousands of explosion flames and flares, reflecting the sky red.
Burning chariots, lying corpses, shattered earth.
Lao Dan knows that the volunteer troops behind the enemy are already attacking the enemy with all their strength, and the 200,000 troops are gradually cutting each of the enemy's troops.In front of our eyes, under the rain of bullets poured down by dozens of bombers, countless shells, bullets and flames rushed towards the hill guarded by the reconnaissance battalion. Every inch of the ground.After half a day of violent bombardment, the originally hard and huge rock on the top of the mountain has turned into gravel, and every trench dug by the soldiers will disappear together with his soldiers in a burst of fierce artillery fire.Below the position, nearly a thousand enemy corpses almost covered the hillside, and more enemies stepped on the corpses of their companions and continued to attack like crazy.The stones are burning, the corpses are burning, the sky is burning, the mountains and the mountains are burning, everyone's eyes are burning...
Yang Beiwan's position was finally hit by the enemy devastatingly. After an hour of bombardment with an average of six or seven shells falling every second, more than a dozen aircraft covered more than a dozen tanks, plus a thousand enemies. Pressed on the position of the 1st company, and within half a day, the 1st company was basically wiped out.Yang Beiwan led all the active soldiers on the ground without retreating a single step, nailed to the hilltop all the time, no matter whether the enemy rushed up the hill or occupied the trenches, the soldiers would drive them back in the same way, and they would pay a few dollars each time. The life of a soldier.After several onslaughts, the enemy suffered heavy losses.
There were no officers in Li Sanpi's position. Yang Beiwan was worried that the enemy would attack this point, so he handed over his position to a few party members and comrades, and took a squad of soldiers to the position of the 3rd company.The offensive pressure encountered by the positions of other battalions is no less than that of this side. On the side of Xinyuanli and Songgufeng, the fighting seems to be more intense. The bombing made it a lot shorter, it was the place guarded by the B group, it seemed that Fan Huo's situation was more cruel than that of the group leader Zhu, so there was no talk of taking care of and covering each other.When the battle of the D regiment was at its most intense, there was also the sound of rumbling artillery from the south. Looking south, a few kilometers away from here, the hilltops also began to be bombed by enemy planes.Lao Dan looked at his watch, and guessed that the enemy's reinforcements from the north had begun to attack the C division's position in the south. There were enemies on both sides, and the situation became more urgent.According to the original schedule, the vanguard troops guarding the Sansuoli and Xinyuanli areas had completed their blocking missions, and reinforcements should be arriving soon. He picked up the phone and shouted:
"3 companies, 3 companies, how is the position?"
"...I am the 3rd Company's position! I am the 3rd Company's position...the company commander, instructor, and deputy company commander have all died! Now we are under the command of Company Commander Yang. The position has been compressed, but it is still in our hands!"
"Make Yang Beiwan obedient!"
After a while, Yang Beiwan's voice came from the phone: "Old Battalion Commander? I'm Yang Beiwan!"
"Can you stand it?"
"Give me another half company, and I can withstand both mountains!"
"The support troops haven't come up yet, we can only rely on ourselves..."
"Then...Old Battalion Commander, then we can only fight against the enemy! Old Battalion Commander, I, Yang Bei Wanneng, have today. You saved this life several times. I won't embarrass you! I'm still waiting. Tell me about the girl from Banzi Village..."
"Little bastard, I'll be here soon..."
Before the words fell, a huge explosion came from the phone, and Lao Dan's ears were almost deafened. He turned his head to look at the top of the mountain reflexively, and saw two enemy bombers passing by the top of the mountain, a huge black cloud Jumping up from the ground, Lao Dan's phone fell to the ground.
Lao Dan's heart choked with sobs, and his eyes were solemn.He has never seen such a terrible air attack. How can this kind of aerial bomb have such a big explosion cloud... From the sound of the explosion of the artillery shells fired by the enemy on the top of the mountain, Lao Dan feels that there are at least seven or eight bombs exploding every second. , This is much more severe than the battle where the People's Liberation Army captured itself on the Huaihai battlefield.He pondered for a moment, took off his hat, and viciously picked up the gun beside him.This is a Soviet Bobosha submachine gun, which Wang Hao took from the soldier who was exhausted on the road, and has never been used.Wang Hao had already gone to the 2nd company's position, but Chen Yanbin couldn't contact him, and the phone line was cut off again.
"Old Chen, we should go up."
"Well! It's time, Lao Dan. According to the deployment of the regiment, our mission has been completed. Guard platoon! Communication team! Culture teachers of each company, all comrades, gather and take all weapons!"
Chen Yanbin was injured just now when setting up missions on the battlefield, and his left arm and head were covered with bandages. Seeing the emergency, he couldn't hold on, and was dragged down by Yang Beiwan's soldiers.
Lao Dan and Chen Yanbin led a dozen soldiers and rushed to the position of the 3rd company, and the rocks that were blown up on the mountain smashed down their heads and faces.The whole hillside was filled with a smell of explosives and gasoline, and it turned out to be soft when stepped on, stirred up by their feet, like fine soil in a river bed.At the top of the mountain, despite the still falling artillery fire, they anxiously searched for the eight soldiers, but they couldn't see a moving figure, and the crowd shouted at them there.Lao Dan was heartbroken to see that the corpses of dozens of soldiers on the top of the mountain had been blasted into pieces by the enemy's continuous artillery fire. Red and white flesh and blood were densely scattered on the position, and the originally hard rocks on the position had been burned. It became scorched earth like lime, and the bullets hit it no longer collapsing in all directions, but fluttering.While everyone was shouting and restraining their available weapons, a soldier suddenly emerged from the ground. He shook off the dust all over his body, like a black man emerging from a piece of scorched earth. He was almost naked, without even his underpants. His whole body was blackened by smoke and burnt, his skin was torn apart, covered with blood and mud.His lips were rolled up and down because of the scorched face, revealing the upper and lower rows of white teeth.Even so, his eyes are still as fierce and blood-red as a wolf in the dark night.He was holding a blasting tube in his hand, holding the fuse with one hand, and staring at Lao Dan. Suddenly, the man dropped the blasting tube and rushed towards him, crying loudly, shouting at the top of his lungs:
"Old Battalion Commander, I'm the only one left. They all sacrificed, and now I'm the only one left..."
"Good brother! Don't be afraid, we are all here, our reconnaissance battalion is here, you are good, comrades are all good..."
As he spoke, Lao Dan burst into tears.
"Commander Yang is gone! I can't find him...I can't find him, he was standing here just now...he was standing here..."
"He died, he was blown up by enemy planes..."
The almost hysterical soldier hugged Lao Dan tightly, his mouth was wide open but he couldn't cry.Lao Dan suppressed the grief in his heart and asked:
"what's your name?"
"...My name is Yu Sanqiang, and I am the cooking squad leader of the 3rd company and the 2nd row."
"I order you to take over the position of Company Commander Yang. We must persevere! Don't retreat! If you can survive, you will lead the 1st Company in the future. Do you understand?"
"The company commander and comrades have all died, and I will never leave them!"
"Don't cry, the enemy is coming up, can we still fight? Let's prepare to fight! Are the machine guns still there?"
"The machine guns are all blown up!"
"Then use submachine guns and grenades!"
"The grenades are gone a long time ago. The barrels of many submachine guns are bent, so they can't be fired. I brought back a dozen guns from the devils, but they didn't have enough bullets. Battalion Commander, where are our reinforcements?"
Lao Dan was silent.He took off his submachine gun and handed it to the soldier, then pulled out the pistol from his waist, and clicked it on top of the fire.
"Even if there is only one person left, the enemy must not let the enemy occupy the position, comrades! Our mission has been completed, and now we must let all commanders and fighters of the Volunteer Army know that our reconnaissance battalion is the hardest nail in the C Division of the 38th Army!"
Chen Yanbin yelled, and immediately removed the bandage on his arm, and blood burst out from the wound immediately.Lao Dan poked his head out of the trenches, and he saw thousands of dead enemy corpses in front of the position. The hillside was already stained red with blood. A dozen tanks lined up to bombard this side, and there were more than a dozen tanks in the sky. The plane swooped down.Below them, thousands more enemies...
In Lao Dan's memory from now on, this scene always feels vague. It is mixed with many previous battle scenes and intertwined in his mind.Did you give the gun to the soldier at that time?If you did, how do you remember that you still have a bobosha in your hand?He remembered seeing several devils with tall horses, big green faces and fangs, but why was there a Japanese devil next to him?It seems that I shot them all down one by one, which pistol was obviously used at this time?How did Lao Chen get down?How do you remember that he fell with two devils, strangled one devil with a bandage, didn't he fall down the mountain with another devil in the end?How did guard Koyanagi die?Is the person who bit the devil's throat with a mouthful of white teeth that white young child Xiaoliu?Why did Wang Hao come here?Isn't he in the position of the 4th company?How could he hit an enemy plane with a machine gun?This is absolutely not allowed by the army!Where did he go?How come no one mentioned him?Whose pants is Yu Sanqiang wearing?Why is it so short?Where did the communications squad leader get a red flag from?Why is there no bullet hole on it?When the enemy rushed up, who blew the charge horn?Didn't the trumpeter die a long time ago?Those few precious cultural teachers, the company commanders would rather sacrifice themselves than let them go to the battlefield, why did they rush down the mountain with grenades?
No matter how he recalled, many pictures on this high ground could not be pieced together completely. He wondered if he had lost some memory because of the bomb. The last memory picture was the bright red flag, which was originally planted On the belly of a devil, he just wanted to pull the flag, but it was suddenly lifted into the sky by a column of fire, and it was burned to ashes in the sky in an instant.The huge shock wave erupted from that fire pillar also lifted him up violently, and he was flying slowly into the sky. In mid-air, he saw countless holes suddenly opened on his body, blood gushing out, and one side of his body was hot. Pain, and a chill on one side.He was rolling in the sky, and to his surprise, he liked the feeling of flying very much and was familiar with it.Wasn't it the same way they flew up along the Yangtze River in Wuhan back then?He was blown from the top of the mountain to the middle of the mountain. It felt like he had been flying for a long time, and finally fell heavily on the hillside.He saw the gun in his hand tumbling and flying down the mountain... Is the arm on the gun his own?When he was dying of consciousness, he saw with one eye that could still be opened, a volunteer army was climbing up the mountain quickly. Is the fat man at the head the regiment leader Zhu Tianhua?Why do you look a bit like Captain Mazi?The soldiers behind him also held a red flag high, but the flag seemed to be changing colors, shaking in the strong wind, turning red for a while, blue for a while, a five-star red flag for a while, and blue sky for a while...
You can go home now, Lao Dan murmured in a coma...
Ever since the man left Banzi Village again, Tweety's heart was in turmoil.The last time Lao Dan left home, it was the devils who broke into the house, and the national army couldn't do anything about it.After worrying about it for many years, she watched the national army being beaten up like that by the devils, and there was no news for several years. It is estimated that the man was killed in battle.Unexpectedly, the man would come back, and all the hopes that had died would be ignited again. The life has undergone earth-shaking changes, and I really wish I could tie him to the kang forever and stay with me for the rest of my life.So when the man left again, the feeling was different from last time, and he was always out of his mind every day.
When the war started, Tweety's heart was always in suspense. Every day, she went to the village entrance to listen to the radio to hear what happened on the Korean battlefield.Reporters from the county also often came to the village to convey current events in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea and preach the country's wartime policies.All the news came from good news, saying that our volunteer army beat the American devils to pieces in the first two battles, and now we are almost hitting the 38th parallel. She didn't know what "Sanba County" was, but she still felt very at ease in her heart, and wiped away the medals Lao Dan had won in the war every day.The volunteers won the battle, and their men were naturally safer.At this rate, won't all the devils be driven back to the United States before the end of the year?
Everything is fine at home, the county magistrate's promise has been fulfilled, and the two children have gone to the county middle school to study, so they live with relatives in the county town and come back once a week or two.A relative sent back a message that the second child, Youpaner, studies very hard. He reads until late every day. Except for fighting time, he spends all his time studying. He does well in all subjects.The teachers praised the boy for his spiritual energy and willingness to work hard, and he might be able to be admitted to Xinyang Teachers College in the future.The boss is not good at studying, but he is mischievous in class, the teacher asks questions, he opens his mouth about my father and shuts his mouth about my father, saying that my father is uneducated and conquers the world, which is really a thorn.The eldest brother and the second child fight with schoolmates every now and then. The eldest brother has roots and is tall and powerful, while the second child is hopeful and ruthless. The two fight together and cooperate tacitly. After a few months, they have become the school's bully.Because it was arranged by the county magistrate, and their father was an officer, the teacher and the principal had nothing to do with these two boys.
Tweety doesn't care much about the children going to heaven and earth. It's better to be able to play and make trouble than to be illiterate in Banzi Village, right?Although the two children are not around often, Tweety lives comfortably by herself.After work, the village cadres often come to visit with their women and children, and the village party secretary Guo Pingyuan is the most frequent.As big as a leak in the house, or as small as a bent threshold, he can clearly detect and arrange for every detail to deal with it. He even had two "Glorious Army Members" plaques embedded on the lintel.Lao Dan has been away for half a year, and he hasn't received a single letter. It's no wonder that he still can't write.Xie Laogui and Xie Guoya were so overwhelmed by the work of the Rural Mutual Aid Working Group that they had long since lost their mind to take care of the military dependents.Guo Pingyuan collected information on the Korean battlefield everywhere, and felt that the battle might not last long. Although the Americans were armed to the teeth, they were nothing but a paper tiger in the face of the mighty Chinese People's Volunteers, just as Chairman Mao said.
Tweety did not go to work in the Women's Mass Industry Department arranged by the township head. Guo Pingyuan established several rural growth mutual aid groups according to the above policies, and coordinated the labor of some farmers. The village reissued Lao Dan's original five mu of land. There are three and a half acres of land, and my own land can still be taken care of by the villagers.The county sent some munitions production tasks to the district, and District Chief Liang handed over the packaging of some cotton yarn bandages to the cooperative production team in Banzi Village.As soon as she heard that it was prepared for the North Korean front line, Tweety immediately signed up and started working happily.Here she is not lonely at all, working with the women in the village laughing and laughing all day long, chatting with everyone about their men's affairs while doing it.
"Tweety, why is your man so capable? After fighting for so many years, he finally came back intact and became a high official. Do you ask Buddha to bless him every day at home?"
"That's right, Cui'er, I never thought that Banzi Village could produce a hero like you! Look at Guo Pingyuan and Xie Guoya's licking vigor, I can't wait to become brothers with your old Dan!"
"I can't help it. When your man comes back, this official can go up again. Our Banzi village is so big, how can we tolerate him in the future? Tweet, you just wait to go to the city to meet your man Let’s drink spicy food! Maybe you will be a royal wife!”
"What big officials and small officials? I don't care about it! If I can come back safely, I don't want to go to the city. I don't know anyone, and I have no land to plant. My old lady is not rare. An official, let me see him, he may be good at leading soldiers to fight, he is not good at being an official, and he can't read a dustpan in big characters, so what kind of official should he be? He is majestic at home, but ah, hehe Hee, don't I take care of him at home?"
"Then you have to pinch him! A man, with a few hairs, will burst into thorns, and a pot cover can be used as a gong to beat. If he bullies you in the future, don't let him go to the kang! Go to the kang Yebeng let him into your bed, see if you can't suffocate him to death!"
"Do you look like an old man in your family? You just became a militia company commander, and your waist is straight, and your nostrils are upturned. What's wrong with the folks one by one. Look at the old man, he became a young man. The official, when he saw our folks, he still called each other uncle and aunt, how can he be a little hypocritical?"
"Come on, Shuixiu, what are you doing with the man from Xi Lian'er's family? He's doing that kind of work, so he has to put on a show, or who will obey him in the village? It's the same for everyone. My old Dan doesn't hold a post in the village, and he just wants to live in peace when he comes home, so of course he doesn't have much style."
"Tweety, do you know that counter-revolutionaries are being killed in the city?"
"What counter-revolutionary? Oh, I heard something from the propagandist, but I don't know what it means."
"It is said that someone put poison in the water of the government and schools, and mixed soil into the first aid kit. This first aid kit was useless on the battlefield. The soldiers died of wound infection after using it. My man and his second uncle were in the police force in the city. As a clerk, he said that the bureau arrests people every day, and after two days of arrest, they will be shot, dozens of them a day."
When Tweety heard that someone dared to mix soil into the first aid kit, she immediately became furious:
"Then it should be killed. My man is fighting in front. If he uses a dirty first aid kit, wouldn't that be fatal? Do they still have a conscience? They dared to put poison in the school water, those kids provoked him, If they fall into my hands, I'll kill them with a shoe awl."
"That's right, let's help you celebrate the dog day together..."
"Tweety, why does Guo Pingyuan keep running to you? What does he want to do?"
"Hey, there's nothing wrong with me, I just came to take a photo to see if there is anything I need to help."
"Don't listen to him, do you still remember that before your man came back, he still wanted to demolish the back room of your house and confiscate it! Your boss shit in front of his house because of this, and threw his woman It stinks. This man, that face is the mattress of the new wife, and he changes a strange pattern every day! He can change his face when he twists his neck. Isn’t it because you are arrogant when you see your man, and you are afraid that your man will repay the old debt, so hurry up to curry favor? Hey , Nodding and bowing, he is really ashamed of that secretary's face! The day before yesterday, I heard his woman slapped him at home, saying that you didn't care about her own house and took care of other people's or widow's houses, ha ha, there are still people Jealousy there!"
"I know in my heart that he helped him, and I carried it on, but I didn't owe him anything! Her mother-in-law was born to be a scum, why did my family have roots, and I didn't make a lot of troubles back then! I smashed her Butt!"
Cui'er recalled that when Guo Pingyuan bullied the orphan and widow, she was often angry and wished that Lao Dan would drag him out and kill him.But these days are the same as honey, and she doesn't want to worry about the past.There are not many good birds in the government, and there is nothing serious about Guo Pingyuan. You can treat him like the old cat on the eaves—as long as you don't come to steal chickens to make trouble, and give him a good face when you are happy.
"Shuixiu, why is your second son still acting like a tiger now? I got up in the middle of the night to relieve myself, and I heard you talking in your room. He didn't seem to have such energy before? Do you want to feed him? What medicine?"
"Ah, Tweety, you don't know, my second son was greeted by your Lao Dan, saying that his mother's Lao Dan used to be like me, and I beat him when fighting, but now he turns his face away. After becoming a general, the magistrate of the county surrounded me, and he knew that he would not be a deserter. He was so angry that he had no place to vent his anger, so he tossed me in the middle of the night, one crop after another, like eating It's like a donkey's whip!"
"That's not right, he is angry, are you enjoying yourself?"
"I always enlighten him, saying that you only see Lao Dan accompanied by the magistrate of the county, but you don't see the pile of scars on Lao Dan's face, and there may be more scars on his body! I don't want you to have scars, and you don't want to be a Officer, do you know how much Tweety has suffered since Lao Dan has been away for more than ten years? If you have been away for more than ten years, even if you become the chairman of the committee, I don’t want to, do you think so, Tweety?”
"That's not true! This second son was stunned for a while, don't pay attention to him, our Banzi Village has gone out to serve as soldiers for dozens of miles, except for those who escaped secretly, isn't he the only one who survived? My old Dan is stupid. , how do you know how to run? Or your second son is clever, why are you angry now? I am afraid that he will toss in the middle of the night with anger, a cow on 30 acres of land, just the age to work, don't make a bad body early! "
"Oh, I can't even stop it! I almost built a wall in the bed! But, I really want to thank your old Dan for coming back, I haven't been so comfortable for a long time..."
Tweety suddenly remembered the night when Lao Dan just came back, and her face blushed.
A year passed in a blink of an eye, and there was still no news of the man, and Tweety felt a little uneasy.Taking advantage of the time when she went to the county to look after the children, she picked out half a basket of eggs, asked the way to the county government, and asked for the county magistrate Chu Jian.The county magistrate Chu just came back from the anti-anti-revolutionary meeting, and he quickly received her, and promised to help her go to the 38th army station to find out about Lao Dan's situation. Chu Jian confiscated the eggs that Cui Er brought.
Over the past year, the two children have grown in size.The eldest brother Yougen became burly, as burly as his father, and there was a more sturdy air between his brows.The second child, Youpan, has also grown a lot, but he is not as powerful as his brother, and is still thin, but he has more elegance than the eldest.The two brothers missed their father very much, and hoped for his return like the stars and the moon.
The second child's studies are just as the relatives said, getting better every day, and the handwriting is so beautiful and neat that even Mr. Yuan Bai is full of praise.Because he and his elder brother had no basic elementary school education, they needed two years of preparatory school before entering junior high school.You Pan'er is born smart, diligent in studying and inquiring, she doesn't fight anymore, she often lights up night battles, and often surprises the teachers with her good studies.He has a strong interest in literature and history. As soon as he got home, he held Tweety's hand and told her historical stories.I don't know where he got to know a lot of things about the Korean battlefield. He told his mother why the war was fought, who was fighting with whom, and the current situation of the volunteer army.Tweety knows that our volunteer army has occupied the capital of South Korea, and now the two sides are fighting fiercely. Lao Dan's army fought several big battles as soon as it entered the dynasty, and beat the enemy to pieces. I'm so happy, but I'm also a little worried.
County Magistrate Chu managed to call the reception department of the 38th Army's garrison, but he didn't get any news from Lao Dan and the D regiment, but he knew that the 38th Army had been called the "Long Live Army", so he asked someone to tell Cui Er the news. Don't worry if you say it, your old Dan is sure to be fine, now he is even more arrogant, the army has become the Long Live Army, and he has not become the head of the Long Live Army?
Another half a year passed in a blink of an eye, and it was time for busy autumn.Every household began to dump the yard, clear the field, and prepare to harvest the crops, grind the grains, and dry the millet.The millet, sorghum, cotton, and corn here are all ripe well. After harvesting the autumn crops, we have to prepare to plant wheat.As soon as the 15th day of the eighth lunar month passed, every household prepared their own food and handed over the public grain, and then began to beat jujubes, steam autumn buns, and go door to door to eat and drink.
It has only been half a year since the county publicized and launched the agricultural production mutual aid group, and the production mode of the mutual aid group has reached an unprecedented scale in Wuyuan Township.Banzi Village has set up a production brigade, under which there are a group of small teams. A small team leader leads several households to form a production team, and a small team is a production team. There are seventeen or eight teams in only one Banzi village.Several households in a group use all the farm tools and strength together, but the land is still divided, and they just concentrate on breaking through the farm work of each family.The county and district conveyed the spirit of the Party Central Committee to every household in every village.The Party Central Committee believes that it is necessary to overcome the difficulties of farmers in decentralized management, to enable the vast number of poor farmers to increase production rapidly, to move towards the road of adequate food and clothing, to enable the country to obtain much more commodity grain and other industrial raw materials than it is now, and to increase the purchasing power of farmers. It is necessary to 'organize' and develop farmers' enthusiasm for mutual assistance and cooperation in accordance with the principles of voluntariness and mutual benefit.Before mutual aid and cooperation, the prototype of the production model after the original land reform was the small-scale peasant economy.The Party Central Committee has said that the small-scale peasant economy is either developing towards socialist large-scale agriculture or developing toward capitalist large-scale agriculture, and the capitalist road is something that socialist agricultural production must oppose, so now we must guide its development to agriculture. Collectivization or socialization will prevent the peasants from spontaneously turning to a purely small-scale peasant economy.The leaders of the village brigade studied the policies of the top for a month before they finally figured out what the Party Central Committee wanted to do.The folks have been in various places since ancient times, and they are very fresh about this novel production model, and they also feel the high efficiency of collective production. Why was such a good method not used before?It must be Chairman Mao of the Party Central Committee who thinks about us poor people day and night, so he found such a good way.
In the autumn of 1951, every household in Banzi Village was busy, and the smell of harvest was everywhere.Guo Pingyuan and Xie Laogui are busy implementing the quantitative collection of public grain, and they have a share from door to door, but the ratio is very low.The folks are grateful for the happiness brought by the new China. Most of the land rent handed over to the big households has been turned into their own surplus grain. Compared with the winter grain piled up in the backyard, the proportion of public grain turned over to the country is nothing at all. Show your gratitude by handing over food to the district.Tweety and a few fellow villagers assembled the public grain to be handed over into a large cart, lined up with twenty mule carts in the village, and headed for the district grain station in a mighty manner under the leadership of Guo Pingyuan.Red flags were planted on their cars, and the whips were heard everywhere. They sang and laughed happily along the way, and bumped into the grain delivery teams in the neighboring villages.In order to overwhelm their momentum, the turtle monster even blew its horn on the road, and it didn't stop until it reached the district.
Unexpectedly, there was already a long queue at the gate of the District Grain Station, and the grain delivery teams from Xidibei Village, Qiaozhuang and Xiheyan Village had long been waiting there.The staff of the district grain station obviously didn't expect the villagers in the villages to hand over grain so enthusiastically, and they were in a hurry.Guo Pingyuan closed his eyes and made a calculation. At this speed, he thought he would not be able to line up to Banzi Village until tomorrow at least. He thought it was not worthwhile to lead the team back. Looking back, the food transport teams of Majiatai Village and Liujiayao Village Arrived next to the ass too.As soon as he gritted his teeth, he ordered everyone to spend the night in the carriage, and return to the village after handing over the grain. We will hand over grain to the new China and fill the grain depot for the country. overnight?
Since she could only stay here, Tweety moved to see what the children were thinking.It is only ten miles away from the children's school, and only fifteen miles away from the relative's house where the children live. If the carriage goes back and forth, it should be back in the middle of the night.Cui Eryang told the team leader who was driving the car, and asked him to give her a ride. Anyway, I have nothing to do here anyway, and I can't delay the payment of public rations tomorrow. The team leader readily agreed.
The mule cart unloading the grain was very light, and the big mule, full of food and drink, ran as fast as it could, and soon arrived at the gate of the county middle school.It was already evening at this time, and Tweety saw several police cars parked at the gate of the school, and the large playground at the entrance of the gate was full of people, chattering and arguing there.Tweety looked left and right and entered the door, struggling to get in among the crowd. First she saw a pool of blood on the ground, she was startled, and then she saw two doctor-like people bandaging the heads of several half-sized children. One of the wounds was quite serious, and was being carried out on the car.Several soldiers from the public security team were lecturing around two people, with guns hanging from their waists.
"How can you be so ruthless? My classmates can do it too? Just gossiping and wielding a shovel, how did your parents discipline you? Your father is an officer, and the most important thing is organization and disciplin
