Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.
An avant-garde battalion of the South Korean Sixth Division drove along the road at the foot of the mountain, which was also the only road in the Shuangliudong area, so the commander of the Volunteer Army who was ambushed in this area was very relieved that the enemy could not go here.
However, when the so-called joint ** all entered the ambush circle, everyone appeared a phenomenon, not the Americans that the troops had always wanted to touch, but the South Korean troops, that is, the puppet army that everyone is used to calling in China, for this reason, the soldiers of the 118th Division, who were full of confidence, were a little unhappy, or could not get excited.
Damn, what's the point of fighting the puppet army, the soldiers muttered quietly.
The company-platoon-level commander was running back and forth in the trenches, and kept warning as he ran:
"Cheer up, don't say strange things, the South Korean soldiers are also united, ready to fight."
When all the troops at the foot of the mountain entered the ambush circle of the 118th Division, the reconnaissance personnel reported to their division command post that the enemy was about 700 people, which should be the size of a reinforced battalion.
Indeed, this avant-garde battalion of the 6th Division of the Republic of Korea is a reinforced battalion equipped with a howitzer company, with a total of more than 750 people.
An avant-garde battalion is equipped with a heavy howitzer company, and the troops in such a configuration are simply too luxurious in the eyes of the volunteers, but unfortunately, even if the weapons and equipment are good, it is useless if people are not good, and they are a pile of waste.
The total strength of the ROK's avant-garde battalion is more than 700 people, while the volunteer army ambushed on the positions on both sides is more than 8,000 people in two whole regiments. The two regiments of the 118th Division are elite soldiers who have been trained in many battles, and they are tiger-like troops.
Two hundred meters, one hundred meters. Fifty meters, the Han ** team is getting closer and closer to the ambush position of the volunteers at the forefront, and the nearest one is less than fifty meters, and it is about to make contact after a few steps, and the soldiers can already clearly hear the opponent's grunt.
The squadron is accustomed to close combat, and is accustomed to putting the enemy under their noses before attacking, which has something to do with the fact that their weapons and equipment are always inferior to the opponent. It wasn't until nearly thirty meters away that Deng Yue, the division commander in the command post, waved his hand violently and shouted, "Begin." ”
The tiny Shuangliudong area is boiling. Because of this battle, it was forever remembered in the history of the squadron, and on October 25, 1950, the Chinese People's Volunteers fired the first shot to fight abroad. this day. It is also the anniversary of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.
Machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, mortars, grenadiers, all weapons are shooting at the South Korean ** team under the mountain with the largest shot, two whole regiments of the ** squadron, more than 8,000 people fired at the same time, the density of bullets is indescribable, this avant-garde battalion in South Korea is not prepared at all. The marching ranks were struck at once.
The marching contingent of more than 700 people was ambushed from both sides by more than 8,000 people. The tragic situation can be imagined under the crossfire, even if most of the fighters in the squadron are holding 38 rifles, but the number is too much, an average of ten 38 big covers are aimed at one person, even if that person has great ability, it is estimated that it is enough.
The equipment of the 118th Division is also made in several countries, mainly Japanese and American, of which the Japanese style is the most, most of the weapons in the hands of the soldiers are captured 38-type rifles, which is an infantry light weapon without air conduction device, there is no automatic and semi-automatic function, and the shooting is slow, but its accuracy is very good, plus the users are veterans, the bullets fired from the positions of the volunteers are very accurate, and many South Korean soldiers were shot in the head.
Under the illumination of the midday sun, the blood splattered from the South Korean soldiers was particularly eye-catching, and under the sudden firepower, the soldiers fell in droves, and those who did not die also ran around in a hurry, and the troops were about to lose control.
Several Han ** officers shouted for the soldiers who had not yet been killed to resist using all kinds of concealment, but their efforts were doomed to be in vain, the mortars and grenadiers of the squadron were like long eyes, and they went to the places where there were many people and there was resistance, and the small shrapnel cut the human body into pieces of minced flesh.
The grenadier is a light weapon used by the Japanese infantry, it is a kind of rough shooting weapon without an aiming device, it relies on the experience of the soldiers when it is used, after being captured by the squadron, after a long time of exploration, many veterans can master this lightweight grenade catapult, because it is light and easy to carry, so it is very popular with the squadron.
The Korean People's ** Brigade is composed of the police and gendarmes during the former Japanese occupation, plus a large number of newly recruited soldiers.
Most of the Chinese troops were veterans, and the 118th Division was a unit known for its arrogance, and a few cars that had not yet been damaged turned around and tried to escape, but as soon as they made a move, several grenades fell from the sky, smashing the vehicles that were about to escape, and the narrow highway was blocked.
The beautiful Shuangliu Cave became a hell on earth in an instant, and the fierce fire attack lasted for about five or six minutes, and from the mountain peaks on both sides came the piercing sound of charging trumpets.
The soldiers of the 118th Division who were lying in ambush on the positions on both sides first threw grenades downward, and then rushed down with shouts of killing under the cover of the smoke from the explosion.
The dense rain of bullets like the wind, then the grenades like hail, and finally the soldiers charging like tigers, in the case of a ratio of ten to one troops, the fate of the avant-garde battalion of the Han ** team can be imagined.
The soldiers who jumped out of the trenches pressed their bright bayonets on their rifles, and began to charge condescendingly, the highest peaks on both sides of the Shuangliudong Highway were only more than 200 meters, and the nearest ambush position of the volunteers was only a few dozen meters away from the Koreans, so a little distance was not a distance for the soldiers of the 118th Division who were accustomed to close combat and stabbing at all, and they rushed up in one breath, and then they heard a scream from the road that made people tremble, which was a desperate cry that came out after being stabbed into the body by a bayonet.
Poof, poof, poof, the sound of bayonets piercing into the human body sounded everywhere on the battlefield, because of the language barrier, the soldiers shouted not to kill each other and could not understand, so the Korean soldiers who were lucky enough not to die fled indiscriminately, and these soldiers who fled indiscriminately were all stabbed by the soldiers with bayonets without exception, and only a few clever guys knelt on the ground and surrendered.
Is it cruel? This is the battlefield, how much is cruelty worth a pound!
The squadron did not kill prisoners, so the Korean soldiers who surrendered were considered to have saved their lives, how long did the battle take, about more than 20 minutes, a reinforced battalion of more than 700 people was eaten by the 118th Division, by the way, and the artillery company that was put away before, did not release a single shot, and obediently raised their hands and surrendered.
Eating a reinforced battalion of the opponent is an appetizer before the battle of the 118th Division, but the capture is really good, don't look at the combat effectiveness of the Korean people's ** team, but the equipment committee is really good, the big boss of the United States is still really rich, twelve 1o5mm howitzers, dozens of cars, hundreds of M1 rifles, and dozens of light and heavy machine guns, in fact, the most popular thing for the volunteers is the individual rations used in the field, which are much stronger than the fried noodles on the shoulders of the soldiers.
Cigarette rolls, lighters, flashlights, including individual water bottles, are all good things, and some soldiers have also changed the shoes on their feet.
Damn, don't take it for nothing, the soldiers who cleaned the battlefield saw the good things and slashed at their bodies, whether they were alive or dead, as long as they were useful to us.
This is a bit of a violation of the "three major disciplines, eight points of attention" in which prisoners are not allowed to be searched in their pockets, but the three major disciplines and eight points of attention are the disciplines that we must abide by when we are in China, and no one knows whether this discipline is used to fight with foreigners, and even the commanders can't figure it out, so in the end they simply pretend not to see it.
The PLA troops have strict discipline and are not allowed to harass the people, that's for sure, the whole army is the same, but a mother's son is also different, for example, five fingers are not ordinary, to say which unit has the best discipline in several large field armies, but to say which unit has the worst discipline? There must be troops from the four fields.
It is said that when the 12th Column of the Four Fields attacked Shenyang, in order to get to the big warehouse in the city one step earlier, Wu Faxian, the political commissar of the column, asked the confidential soldiers to deliberately break the radio station, and once the radio station was broken, they could not receive the order of the Ye Division, and they could let go of the courage to rob it, and when they robbed the warehouse, they also had friction with their brothers, and the practice of the 12th column was to press the soldiers of the brother column with bags of flour, and they were moving in a big way, and the onlookers were watching the excitement on the sidelines, and they were coaxing while watching, and look, the People's Liberation Army fought the People's Liberation ArmyLater, the commander and political commissar of the 12th Column were severely criticized by Mr. Lin. (The Four Fields and the Twelfth Column, that is, the 49th Army of the Chinese People's Liberation Army, commander Zhong Wei, known as the fox of the black land)
After interrogation, it was learned that there was a second infantry regiment behind them, which was about 10 kilometers away from them, and in order to facilitate communication, the 118th Division was equipped with a North Korean interpreter.
The division commander Deng Yue, who learned the news, ordered the troops to immediately stop cleaning up the battlefield, the target was the 2nd Regiment of the 6th Division of South Korea.
The 118th Division began to move forward rapidly, and in a few minutes the 13,000-odd divisions disappeared into the mountains and mountains of Korea. (To be continued......)
