Chapter 164 The nameless highland has a name (17)

Time seemed to stand still!The soldiers' cave was so low, so narrow, so small, and so damp that the soldiers felt bored within a short while.The air is slowly decreasing, getting hot, and the clothes are unwearable.But, you can't go out, absolutely can't go out, the enemy is above!Unable to take off your clothes: you are close to me, and I am close to you, tightly leaning left and right, opposite knees to knees, and no one can move; there are so many weapons on their bodies, and they will be fired as soon as they take off their clothes. Sound; the enemy is up there!what time is itWhat time has it been?Is it daylight?Everyone asks, everyone looks at the watch, ah, time seems to have stopped, and one minute seems to pass a year!

They are going to spend the night and the day in the cave! There is plenty of dry food, but who can swallow it!They are hot, stuffy, and irritable, with a stone on their chest!They were thirsty, very thirsty!There is plenty of water, but who dares to drink more?If you drink too much, you will have trouble urinating! This is the test!Those who have not received long-term training in the army, and those who have not been tempered by revolutionary struggle, will definitely rush out screaming!However, our heroes sat motionless, waiting for the charge order that seemed to arrive at no time!In low voices, they comforted each other, talked about the heroes they were going to learn, and encouraged each other!Turning on the flashlight, they took a picture of the comic strips, photos and biographies of heroes in their hands.They are anxious, bored, irritable, dry mouth, and sore legs, but they use their heroic image, heroic deeds, and heroic spirit to encourage themselves to overcome the unbearable pain!Can't bear the pain, how can the hero's determination be realized?Without so much pain, how can we take up the glorious task in the struggle to resist US aggression and aid Korea?Their perseverance, calmness, deep-rooted organization and discipline taught them that they would rather die in a small hole than complain or disobey orders!Their noble qualities and lofty spirit of revolutionary heroism are manifested on the battlefield, in camps, in villages, and also in garrison caves!They are not only simple youths from the fields, but also heroes who will become Matrosov and Huang Jiguang.What they endure is what a hero endures; it is a test, and they stand it.

In the enemy barracks above their heads, groups of enemy soldiers are playing poker cards, each card has a naked "beautiful" person printed on it, venting their despicable feelings with the most obscene words.Thirty or fifty enemy soldiers were watching movies from Hollywood, admiring the "heroic" deeds of hooligans and robbers.Some enemy soldiers stared alone at the cover girls in magazines, or read detective novels about murder cases.Some enemy soldiers are missing the South Korean, Japanese, or Taiwanese prostitutes who were created by the "aid" and "friendliness" of the United States.

The distance between the top of the mountain and the bottom of the mountain is only more than 200 meters. What two different worlds! Put the red flag up the mountain!We want to annihilate the enemy, and we also cast aside their playing cards, movies, and "art"!We respect women, protect women, and prevent them from being raped! How lovely are our little holes!They are narrow, damp, and stuffy, but there are heroes and soldiers sitting in them!What a pure cave, what a pure man!The words, thoughts, and feelings in these small caves will surely defeat aggression and eradicate ugliness!

Someone fainted, and everyone gently and silently moved him to a place near the entrance of the cave to breathe in some cool air.Gao Jiabao, the small bugleman, has passed out twice, but he still refuses to retreat. He wants to persevere to the end just like everyone else. Cannon!Cannon!Our guns!Our guns!what time is itIt's just noon!Another full eight hours to wait!Patience, persistence, we have survived two-thirds of the time!Time has not stopped, hasn't it already gone sixteen hours?Listen to our cannon, how majestic and how nice it sounds!Good job!Hit again!Hit again! However, our guns stopped firing.The day before yesterday, we fired so many cannons; yesterday, we didn't fire a single cannon, but today we only fired dozens of shots at noon.right!Confuse the enemy, don't teach the enemy to touch our laws!War is a battle of wits!

what time is itThree o'clock, four o'clock, five o'clock in the afternoon!How slow!Hurry up!quick!what time is itAt half past six, the sun has set!quick!quick!Seven o'clock, in other words, nineteen o'clock! Nineteen o'clock!Everything is ready!The stretcher team moved forward both east and west.Observers enter the observatory at Nanshan and Beishan.Telephone operators are distributed by segment.Doctors and nurses have taken care of everything in the hospital where the dressing was done.The engineers are ready at the Yiguchuan ferry... The spring moon shines freshly, illuminating the mountains. "Old Bald Mountain" is quiet, everywhere is quiet, and you can hear the sound of the Yigu River flowing down the stone ridge two or three miles away.It's so quiet outside, but the tunnels and caves are extremely tense, everyone's heart is racing, and they can only hope that the guns will fire, and they will go forward!

At nineteen o'clock, Chief of Staff Mileage of the battalion command post, political commissar Pang, and instructor Lou all stared at the watch.In the regiment command post, Commander Li, Deputy Commander Chen, Commander Qiao, Artillery Commander, and Artillery Commander all stared at their watches! At nineteen o'clock, the commanders of all artillery units kept their eyes on their watches!At nineteen o'clock, Battalion Commander He arrived at the Tunbing Cave. The company commander "Huzi" always sat with the soldiers, enduring the pain in the cave.The soldiers knew that the company commander's brain had been injured, and he was more likely to feel depressed than others, so they repeatedly advised him to move outside to get more air from the outside.The company commander refused.He must lead by example, and must share the joys and sorrows of the soldiers.When he couldn't bear it anymore, he gritted his teeth.As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, he immediately encouraged the people around him.When the battalion commander arrived, Company Commander Li moved closer to the entrance of the cave and took a few breaths of cool air.He immediately thought of the soldiers, he should teach everyone to come out to breathe some cool air and stretch their already stiff limbs.

He reported to the battalion commander: the soldiers were in high spirits.Although the cave was so sad, no one complained. The battalion commander nodded.The battalion commander knew that his soldiers would be able to stand the test like this. "Is everyone's order out of order?" the battalion commander asked.He was afraid that the order of everyone's arrangement might become out of order in such a long period of time; then it would be necessary to readjust the team when attacking out of the hole, which would waste time. "There is no chaos! How did we practice and how did we do it! Battalion commander, don't worry! We will come out as a team immediately after hearing the order, and there will be no chaos at all!" Company Commander Li replied in a low voice, with a satisfied tone in his words.

"it is good!" "Battalion Commander! There is only one hour, teach everyone to come out quietly, okay?" the company commander asked for instructions. "why?" "It's too stuffy in the cave! The soldiers' hands and feet are no longer flexible! Come out first to breathe, move around, and move so fast when attacking!" The company commander thought he had a good reason, and showed his concern for the soldiers . "Absolutely not!" The battalion commander said firmly. "You come out, if the enemy's artillery hits and injures our people, who will be responsible? Don't say too much, just wound the squad leader of the assault squad, who will command this squad?"

"Commander, I understand! But..." "But what?" "Also... it can't be such a coincidence, can it?" "We are only allowed to carry out the order, and we are absolutely not allowed to take chances! The commander ordered us to do so!" "Yes! Battalion Commander!" "At 19:30, our friendly forces attacked from the north and the south in order to attract the enemy's artillery fire to both sides. Hearing the sound of the artillery, the people in the cave are absolutely not allowed to move! Pass it on. By 20:00 , Our artillery fire attack can teach the demolition team to go out and move up the mountain. They can only approach the barbed wire fence when our artillery is extended. The rest of the people must come out of the hole to attack at 20:04, not less than a minute! "

"Yes, Battalion Commander!" Company Commander Li retreated into the cave, conveying what the battalion commander had just explained.And tell everyone that he almost did something wrong again. The soldiers were refreshed after hearing the company commander's words, and unanimously decided to endure another hour.They understand the psychology of the company commander, because in the past, they always relied on their own bravery and wanted to touch it. Knowing the danger, they said "what are you afraid of!" Now, they see clearly that their views with the company commander are wrong. ; they must obey the command of the battalion commander. Battalion Commander He went to each garrison cave and gave explanations according to different situations.Before he came to the battlefield, he thought this way: everything has been prepared, every soldier knows his mission, and there is really no need for him to go into battle himself.The chiefs were justified in their delay in approving him to personally lead the assault.Now, he could see that he had the good fortune to come in person.The extreme bravery of our cadres and soldiers, as well as their past combat experience, make it easy for them to forget their plans or temporarily change them.He must be in the position in person, explain at any time, and reduce mistakes.He must be here as a bridge between old experience and new experience, between the superiors and the soldiers. "Nineteen thirty!" Commander Qiao shouted at the command post.At exactly one second, the North Mountain of Deyindong, about 1,000 meters south of the "Old Bald Mountain", started!According to the regimental commander's arrangement, the small assault troops of the third battalion rushed to the hill first. Hearing the sound of gunfire, Company Commander Li opened his tiger eyes wide, and said in a low and forceful voice: "Listen! It's starting from the south! It's as accurate as a clock!" The soldiers all wanted to cheer, but no one made a sound.Even so, the company commander even shouted softly: "Silence!" Immediately afterwards, to the north, on the north mountain of Shixiandong, about 1,500 meters away, it also started!This is also the attack of friendly forces arranged in advance. "Look!" Li Lianchang explained to everyone in a low voice, "The south and the north attract the enemy's artillery fire together, so that we can attack smoothly without hindrance!" Sure enough, behind the "Old Bald Mountain", the enemy's artillery group began to fire from south to north. "This is a battle of wits!" said the company commander very proudly, "It's really insightful to fight such a battle! Comrades, we must attack very quickly, before the enemy's artillery fire turns around!" At 19:45, news came that the attacking troops of the third battalion had occupied the hill to the south! The hearts of the soldiers will jump out.The three battalions have already won the victory, shall we wait?attack! " "Don't move!" Commander Li ordered!Immediately afterwards, he encouraged: "The third battalion has won, can we be ashamed? We must not! Okay, there are still ten minutes, get ready!" In the battalion command post, all artillery units heard the voice of Commander Qiao on the telephone: "19:50! 19:50!" Captain Qiao's eyes were fixed on the watch, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the watch.Captain Qiao's long face was pale and murderous.There are still ten minutes!ten minutes!All the preparations, all the painstaking efforts, all the sweat, are all for 20:00!Whether it is smooth or difficult, political and military influences all depend on 20:00!Once the cannon is fired, there is no way to take it back!He is the head of the regiment, and he is responsible for the actual preparation and command! When he was fighting guerrilla warfare, he once disguised himself as a countryman, broke into a small town full of enemy soldiers alone, and walked around rubbing shoulders with the enemy soldiers.With his stature and his eyes, who would believe his disguise?He himself probably didn't really believe it, so he put one hand in the lapel of his little coat, and hooked the gun with his fingers.Whoever dares to come and catch him will be shot first!He is bold, simple, and cheerful, taking on difficult and dangerous tasks as if playing a game.But, that was a long time ago.Now, he is the head of the regiment, and he has a new combat machine in his hands, so no obstacles are allowed!Isn't it, when everything was ready to stop, the army commander asked him in person: Can we fight or not? The steady and honest teacher also looked at his watch.He still had a smile on his face, and he believed that his troops would win.However, he smoked one after another.He also has concerns - our soldiers are brave, but brave people often don't do things according to the plan; disrupting the plan is dangerous! Deputy Master Chen looked at his watch, and there was a little smile on the darkest and brightest part of his black eyes.He was comparing the strength of the enemy and ourselves in his mind: the enemy's use of troops is indeed like a machine, but the power of that machine is the pistol and machine gun of the supervisor;As for us, we can only be said to be a machine that is not very refined, but our motivation is justice, class consciousness, patriotism and internationalism.Alright, our strength is great! Hope our machine will be perfect day by day!He smiled. In the battalion command post, Chief of Staff Cheng's face was exceptionally clever, as if he had an absolute confidence in his heart. Even if he went up the mountain and completely disrupted, he would find a way to get it right again.He doesn't worry about anything, he believes in his command ability! Political Commissar Pang sat quietly, he was concerned about the current state of mind and mood of the soldiers.He wanted to go to the Tunbing Cave to have a look. Instructor Lou's mood was similar to that of Political Commissar Pang.He was particularly concerned about Company Commander Li, and was even a little worried about Commander He—what if he forgot to command when he heard the gunshot, and went to fight himself?He also wanted to take a look at the Tunbing Cave. However, Battalion Commander He knew how to control himself.The time was almost up, and he couldn't help but unbuttoned his clothes.According to the past habit, every time he went into battle, he would not leave any burden on his body, even take off his coat, in order to move flexibly.Undoing only one button, he smiled and fastened it again.Today, today, he will go into battle neatly like a battalion commander! Only five minutes to go! ………… Head Qiao shouted into the phone: "Twenty o'clock!" As soon as the words were spoken, the shells of dozens of cannons also came out! "Old Bald Mountain" turned into a fire dragon!The spring water in Yigu River is shining red!
