Chapter 971: Night Battle
There was nothing more to the marching troops, except for the sound of footsteps and the slight sound of chewing. Every fighter here is well aware of what awaits them ahead
What awaits them is not the flowers covering the ground, nor the applause of the crowd, nor the rich fireworks show, but the rain of mines, gunsmoke, and wind and rain.
This time, I don't know how many people have spilled blood on the battlefield, and I don't know how many lives have fallen to Huangquan. But they know the mission on their bodies, the burden on their shoulders, and the high hopes of the people of the motherland. Therefore, the soldiers walked with great righteousness and awe-inspiring righteousness, rushed without hesitation, and killed the Russians with great arrogance.
Suddenly, gunshots rang out from the front.
"Stop moving." Shi Qingyang ordered.
After the 100 men of the entire company stopped, they quickly dispersed and hid on both sides of the road.
Shi Qingyang lay on the ground and stood in front of him, waiting for the sharp knife squad to report the situation.
At this time, a soldier panted and ran to Shi Qingyang, "Company commander, the front of the sharp knife squad is blocked." ”
"How many Russians." Shi Qingyang asked anxiously.
"I don't know, but the Russians shoot hard." The warrior replied.
"Communicator, go and call the company deputy and the platoon commander to come over." Shi Qingyang said to correspondent Feng Bing.
After a while, Ma Shan, the deputy company commander, and a platoon commander ran over from the back of the line.
"Company commander, I'll go to the front to see the situation, you and the platoon commander are here to command the troops." Shi Qingyang pointed to the front and said, "There is a problem here, you should be careful." ”
"I'd better go! Captain. Deputy company commander Ma Shan scrambled to go.
"No, I'll go check on the situation and come back." After speaking, Shi Qingyang and the soldier touched in the direction where the sharp knife squad was blocked.
The Sharp Knife squad was trapped at the exit of a mountain.
Shi Shuguo crawled over and asked the leader of the sharp knife squad: "How is the situation ahead?" ”
"Company commander, you can't get out of front. As soon as we moved, the Russians fired. The leader of the sharp knife squad said helplessly.
"What is this place?"
"I don't know."
"Damn, you can't start a fire." Shi Qingyang took out the map from his satchel, "I can't see anything!" ”
Just then, a flare flew from the front.
White flares tore through the night sky, hovering in the air for more than a dozen seconds. The earth was illuminated like daylight by bright light. For a moment, the darkness receded, and everything in front of me was revealed.
Shi Qingyang blurted out: "Highway 10." ”
That's right, it's Highway 10, and it's the most crooked and dangerous section of Highway 10.
"I'm really afraid of something, what are you coming." Shi Qingyang said worriedly.
I saw that after Highway 10 bent here, it was neither wide nor flat, and there was a steep cliff on the right and a bottomless cliff on the left. There are also drainage ditches on both sides of the road that are about 50 cm wide and 50 cm deep.
After Shi Qingyang realized this, it was too late to know anything. This is a deliberate attempt by the Russians to intercept the 6th Company here.
"Squad leader, you must be nailed here, and you must not let the Russians in front of you come." After Shi Qingyang gave the order to the sharp knife squad leader, he got up and ran to the troops behind.
As soon as he got up, the Russians' machine guns went off.
From the top of the hill, the Russians threw grenades downwards as they strafed the road.
For a time, there was a constant sound of gunfire and bombings on the road.
The 100 people of the 4th Company were crowded on a section of less than 200 meters, with nowhere to hide or hide. The whole company was llL at once.
The warriors swarmed to the ditches on both sides.
Gunshots rang out on the hill on the right, jungle on the left, and mountain passes ahead.
Shi Qingyang judged from the direction that this was a pocket array arranged by the Russians. Maybe it won't be long before the Russians will have a back cover. By that time, the more than 100 people he had brought with him would have become in the pockets of the Russians! …,
Shi Qingyang guessed correctly, this is exactly what the Russians are trying to do.
In order to arrange this pocket formation, the Red Army waited here for two whole days. Even when the Chinese army was attacking the 317 and 321 heights, the Russians continued to send agents to reconnoiter the movements of the Chinese army
The Chinese army is engaged in a war of encirclement and annihilation. The same is true of the attempt of the Russians, which is to destroy the living forces of the Chinese army, to fight big battles and small battles.
The Russians' anti-aircraft aircraft, light and heavy machine guns, and various individual firearms all opened fire on more than 100 Chinese soldiers at the foot of the mountain. The bullets that came at them screeched and slammed into their heads like splashing water.
At first, some of the fighters mistakenly thought that the fraternal troops had misunderstood their own people, and shouted to the Russians on the hill one after another:
"Stop, your own people."
"Stop fighting, you have long eyes!"
Several fighters lay on the ground and shouted vigorously. After the shouting, the rain of bullets became more intense, and the fighters who were beaten lay in the trench and did not dare to move.
The Russians on the hill seemed to understand the shouts of the warriors below, and occasionally there were a few chirping shouts. The louder the scream, the more bullets hit.
These fighters understood that it was not their own people on the mountain, but real Russians. The illusion is gone, the luck is gone, don't expect anything, let's fight!
The fighters of the 6th company on the road began to return fire.
Because I couldn't see where the Russians were, I could only find a spot by the light of the fire. The place where the flames are swallowed on the mountain must be the point of fire of the Russians. The fighters also ignored what it meant to aim and shoot, and raised their guns to shoot back indiscriminately at the fire. If you can't hit the Russians, you can suppress the Russian firepower. Up and down the mountain, the fire flickered non-stop.
The Russians had been prepared for a long time, and from time to time they fired flares down the mountain.
Flares rose straight above the road, revealing the soldiers' hiding places. The road can be seen on the mountain, and the people on the road cannot see the situation on the mountain. As long as the flares are together, some fighters will be killed or wounded.
"Puff puff!" From time to time, fighters were shot, and blood from their bodies flowed everywhere. If the soldier who was hit did not shout out himself, it would be difficult for the people next to him to find that someone had been shot.
The Russians on the mountain are fighting more and more frenziedly, and the fighters under the mountain are fighting more and more unconfident, seeing that the shooting sound around them is getting quieter and quieter.
Shi Qingyang was blocked on the highway and rushed forward several times before being driven down the ditch by Russian fire.
Ma Shan, the deputy company commander who was in the middle of the company, couldn't see that he could do it, and if he continued like this, he would have to annihilate the whole army.
"Chanson, Chanson." Ma Shan shouted at Qian Sen, the leader of the second platoon.
Qian Sen climbed to Ma Shan from another place: "Here!
"Call your platoon together and follow me." Ma Shan said loudly.
"Yes." After Qian Sen agreed, he retreated back to his place, "The second platoon is still alive to listen to my order, follow the company and the deputy, and charge." ”
With the help of the light of the flares, Ma Shan could see clearly that there was a mountain not far ahead, and there were only two machine guns on the mountain bag. As long as you take that mountain bag, you can suppress the Russians on both sides. So he's going to take the mountain bag with the second row.
Several fighters were shot as soon as they got up.
Ma Shan hurriedly ordered: "Don't stand up, follow me forward and take down the mountain bag." ”
The warriors in the trench position took advantage of the trench to cover and advance on the cat's waist. Those who have no shelter will crawl on the highway and move forward little by little.
A bright light rose, and another flare hung in the sky, and the highway was lit up again. The fighters, who were crawling forward, quickly stopped, lay motionless on the ground, and did not attract Russian machine-gun fire as much as possible. Wait for the light to go out, then move forward quickly. After a few tosses, I quickly approached the mountain bag. …,
The two machine guns on the mountain bag were still firing at the road.
"Rush"
Ma Shan shouted, and the first one stood up and threw himself on the mountain bag.
When the dozen or so soldiers in the second platoon heard the shouting, they all got up from the ground and rushed forward with Ma Shan.
At this time, the two machine guns on the mountain bag spotted the intention of the Chinese army, and immediately turned their guns and fired a fierce fire at the attacking crowd.
The second platoon was pressed under the mountain bag.
At this moment, a figure broke away from the crowd and ran to the other side.
"Who's that, don't run around." Ma Shan shouted at the black shadow.
The black shadow doesn't care about this, you call yours, I run mine. I saw the black shadow dodging the machine-gun fire in a row. In the blink of an eye, he approached the Russian machine-gun position.
With a shake of his hand, the shadow threw a grenade at the Russian machine-gun position.
With a "boom", the Russian machine guns became dumb.
Another machine gun noticed that there was a problem and hurriedly turned the muzzle of the gun and fired at the shadow. The shadow was hit by a machine-gun bullet and couldn't lift his head.
As soon as the machine gun turned its head, the pressure on the second platoon immediately disappeared. Ma Shan shouted, "Up." ”
Hula, a dozen warriors stood up and rushed towards the hill while strafing the mountain.
The Russians wanted to turn the machine gun back again, but how could the Chinese soldiers give him this opportunity.
As soon as a volley of bullets from the second platoon of fighters passed, the Russian machine gun shooter lay on his stomach and did not move. As soon as the second Russian took the machine gun, he was shot again before it could be fired.
When it comes to this battle, everyone knows how to strike first. How can the first enemy fighter plane that was finally fought for back be put down.
Chanson held a light machine gun, straightened up like a madman, and swept forward.
The dense machine-gun bullets, along with the submachine guns and semi-automatic rifles of other fighters, immediately formed a net of fire in front of the Russian trench.
It was too late, but it was too soon, and the fighters rushed into the Russian position at once.
As soon as Chanson jumped into the trench, he saw two men scuffling together. He wanted to shoot and destroy the Russians, but he was afraid of injuring his own people by mistake. It was too dark, and I couldn't see clearly who was Russian and who was my own.
At that moment, another flare went up.
Qian Sen used the light to see that the person who scuffled was Pan Luwei.
"Pan Luwei, get out of the way." Qian Sen wanted to shoot and said loudly to Pan Luwei.
Pan Luwei ignored it, maybe he was stuck by the Russians, and the two couldn't be separated at all, and they only cared about scuffling. Suddenly, Pan Luwei threw the Russian on the back and threw him to the hillside at once.
After this Red Army was thrown out by Pan Luwei, he really picked a big bargain.
At this time, the hill had been occupied by the second platoon led by Ma Shan. If the Reds did not escape, they would have to be taken prisoner or destroyed.
The afterglow of the flares hasn't gone yet. I saw that the Red Army stood up and ran down the mountain.
As soon as Pan Luwei snatched the machine gun in Qian Sen's hand, he was about to shoot.
"No, there are your own people under the mountain." Chanson reminded Pan Luwei.
Pan Luwei didn't speak, threw the machine gun to Qian Sen suddenly, grabbed a rifle on the ground, stretched it forward, and pulled the plate strike without aiming.
"Smack, smack." Two gunshots rang out, and the Redman fell to the ground.
After the Russians fell to the ground, Chanson was shocked and sweated, and shouted to Pan Luwei: "You are too bold, but you are all your own people down the mountain." ”
"It's okay, I'm sure." After Pan Luwei finished fighting, he also felt that he lacked confidence.
After Ma Shan led the second platoon to occupy the hill, he organized fire to return fire on the opposite woods and the Russians on the mountain. …,
At this time, the fourth company, which had been ambushed by the Russians by mistake, finally had a commanding height slightly above the ground, so that it could compete with the Russians!
The Russians on the mountain thought that the 6th Company had almost been beaten, so they took advantage of the straggler combat skills that the fighters were good at and the advantage of fighting at night, and rushed down from the mountain one after another and rushed into the position of the 4th Company.
At this time, there were more than a dozen scuffles on the highway. From time to time, you can hear "oh, oh" shouts and the sound of fighting when you fall to the ground.
The partisans of the Red Army, which were perennially active in the most dangerous areas of the war, were the most active. They did not wait for the commander's order, some shouted and rushed down, and some secretly descended the mountain to blend in with the ranks of the Chinese army
As soon as the partisans descended the mountain, the Russians' firepower immediately weakened. Only the hill occupied by the second platoon was still firing at the Russians in the jungle opposite.
The highway was full of scuffles.
As soon as the firepower network in front of Shi Qingyang weakened, he ran in the direction of the company as if he was dead.
He had just run out a few steps before he was knocked down by two people who jumped down the hillside.
Shi Qingyang is a strong man, and this pounce is really nothing to him. I saw that he reacted quickly enough, and the moment he fell to the ground, he dropped the muzzle of the gun, and he couldn't help but say that he fired several shots at the black shadow.
"Dangdangdang" Four gunshots rang out, and both black shadows fell to the ground.
"Damn, I don't have the time to play with you." Shi Qingyang scolded, stood up and continued to run forward.
In the darkness of the night, when we can't tell the difference between friend and foe, no one dares to shoot again. For a moment, the gunfire on the highway died down.
A soldier standing in the ditch kept aiming at the chaotic crowd on the highway with a machine gun, but he just didn't dare to shoot, watching the chaotic fight scene at a loss.
Shi Qingyang flew into the ditch.
Before the soldier could react, Shi Qingyang had already come closer.
"Damn, stupid, hit!"
"Company commander." The little soldier heard Shi Qingyang's voice: "I can't fight, people are stuck together." ”
"Hit the hill and stop the Russians from coming down." Shi Qingyang said, snatching the machine gun from the soldier's hand. "Go, tell the others to shoot at the hill and never let a single Russian come down again."
Not only did the machine gun in Shi Qingyang's hand go off, but several other machine guns also rang out.
Suddenly, tongues of fire erupted from the highway and finally stopped the Russians from rushing down from the mountain
The Russians who went down to the highway gradually became lonely because they had no help. After a while, the few remaining Russians were also wiped out by the fighters.
After the highway returned to the hands of the fourth company, Shi Qingyang began to organize the first and third platoons to break through.
Eight machine guns were placed in the first line, forming a line of fire horizontally on the hillside. The warriors spread out in groups of three and attacked fiercely towards the hill.
Shi Qingyang knew that if the mountain was not taken, the entire company would not be able to escape the clutches of the Russians no matter what. Therefore, even if he doesn't want his life, he will take this mountain.
"The moon is dark and the night kills, and the wind is high and the sky is on fire."
The Russians took full advantage of this invisible curtain and began to wantonly kill Chinese soldiers. From time to time, some of the Chinese soldiers who were blocked on the highway were shot, and some were constantly killed.
Shi Qingyang ordered a platoon to attack the Russians on the hill and recapture the commanding heights.
After the platoon had left, he then ordered all the fire on the road to return fire on the Russians.
"Hit me up the hill."
After Shi Qingyang gave the order, all kinds of firearms did everything they could to bomb and shoot fiercely at the Russian firepower point on the mountain.
As a reinforced company, the 6th Company is equipped with offensive firepower such as mortars, recoilless guns, and flamethrowers. …,
The artillerymen kept filling the shells, and the "boom" bombed non-stop!
And the flamethrower has a short range, and the Russians are not yet reached on the road. So the two soldiers scurried up the hill. After climbing to a certain distance, he pulled the board blow and spit out the tongue of fire inside.
After the two flames of "Huhu, Huh" burst out, the artemisia grass was immediately ignited.
As soon as the fire appeared, several Russians hiding in the grass could not stand still, and hurriedly jumped out of the fire with the flames and fled to the mountain for their lives.
The shadow in the back and the firelight reflected each other, and it was simply four or five human torches. These Red Army soldiers jumped and jumped. Fight the flames on your body while running.
The fighters couldn't help but say, and dozens of guns were aimed at the Russians at once.
"Da Da Da, Bang Bang"
It is also impossible to tell whether it is a machine gun or a rifle. Under a burst of heavy fire, the Russians did not run three meters before they all fell to the ground.
Mortars and recoilless guns at this time also played a powerful role in the positions of the Russians. The power is expressed to the extreme, guiding a row to rush upward. The distance between the shells and the people was so close that as soon as the shells moved, the soldiers followed, almost to the point of fighting bayonets.
In the crater where the shell blew up, before the smoke cleared, the fighters jumped in. The best coordination of man and artillery did not give the Russians a chance to backfill the firing gap at all.
The Russians, who were about to descend the mountain, were beaten and shrank back.
A platoon of fighters rushed upwards inch by inch, and the Russians on the hill retreated step by step.
If it weren't for the nose touching the nose, the nosebleeds would have been splashed. Head to head, forced helpless. They will never give up most of the hillside to the Chinese soldiers in the blink of an eye.
From time to time, some of the Chinese soldiers who rushed to the front were shot and fell to the ground. However, when the front side fell, the back side immediately made up for it.
There was only the sound of gunfire, artillery, grenade explosions, and no panicked shouts on the hillside.
Seeing that the Russians' position is close in front of them, if there are more than ten meters, they will be able to take the hillside in one fell swoop.
Jin Guoqiang, the leader of the first platoon, was happy, and in order to cheer up his comrades-in-arms to make a final fight, he shouted: "Rush! Take the hill! ”
After the soldiers heard the platoon commander's shout, they were no longer silent, and shouted, "Rush! Rush! ”
For a moment, a sudden thunderous roar covered the hillside.
At this time, the hillside is no longer dull, no longer depressing, no longer sad, and there is dawn ahead.
As long as they break through the darkness in front of them, the brothers of the whole company will be able to say goodbye to death, and the light of life will return to their hands.
Seeing this situation, if any person is not excited, then he is either bloodless, or he is too calm.
Even Shi Qingyang shouted excitedly at the bottom of the mountain: "Work harder, take down the position for Lao Tzu!" ”
