The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Quite a few soldiers just woke up, their stomachs groaned, they touched the shriveled grain strips, carefully squeezed some fried noodles from inside, put them on the tip of their tongues, rolled their tongues, and licked their black fingers There was yellowish powder on it, and then I drank some water, but I still couldn't feel slightly full.

Instead, he became even hungrier.

The soldiers tightly tightened their stomachs with their belts and squeezed their stomachs into a ball so that they would not feel hungry.

Wang Xiaoliang was carefully licking the chow mein powder on his dirty hands until it was clean. Many soldiers had already finished their chow mein, so they took off the food strips and carefully pulled out the inner pouch. Stained with fried noodle powder, I poured some into the empty cans seized from the U.S. Army, then poured some water, picked some grass and crushed it, threw it in, and cut off two branches to make chopsticks, and served a simple breakfast. Eat food into the stomach.

The weeds were hard to swallow, and many soldiers showed unbearable expressions on their faces, resisting the discomfort, and swallowed the food into their stomachs.

Lao Yang made some batter for Xia Yuan, and put wild vegetables picked from the forest in it, "Eat some, you must be very hungry when you performed a mission last night."

"I'm not hungry."

Xia Yuan shook his head, "I still have a lot of fried noodles on me, I'll share them with the soldiers."

He took off the grain sticks on his body and handed them to Lao Yang. Lao Yang looked at the half bag of grain sticks and was a little astonished.

Xia Yuan said vaguely: "I ran out of food strips last night when I was on a mission. These food strips were taken from the sacrificed soldiers and distributed to those in need."

Lao Yang raised his head and said, "I didn't see you collecting the food strips from the sacrificed soldiers?"

"It was collected during the mission last night."

Anyway, Lao Yang didn't know what he was doing last night, so he casually fooled him, so he stood up and looked at the soldiers who were eating on the battlefield, his heart was slightly blocked. Even if they couldn't get it, the U.S. military took the food very seriously again, knowing that the Volunteers had run out of ammunition and food at this time.

If he wants to find a way to solve the dilemma facing the next battalion, it is obviously impossible to rely on logistical supplies, so he can only seize it from the enemy.

Maintaining the food of one battalion of the enemy can obviously sustain the food of another battalion, but it is obviously impractical to take down the enemy's battalion, and one of the enemy's regiments has already been reinforced.

While thinking about it, the roar of shells came from my ears. Three shells from the enemy hit the volunteer army's position, rolling up a lot of soil, and two volunteer soldiers who were eating were killed on the spot.

Company Commander Lei yelled on the ground: "Everyone, take cover, the shelling is coming!"

According to the level of the enemy's bombardment in the past, it must have been a violent bombardment at the beginning, but their artillery position was blown up last night. There are not many howitzers that can be used, but the power of ten howitzers is still not to be underestimated. A series of shells hit, like flower petals made of clay blooming on the position.

The soldiers leaned against the sides of the tunnel, lowering their heads to avoid the shelling. The sound of the explosion was deafening. A howitzer could cause the entire mountain to tremble slightly. A howitzer exploded not far from Xia Yuan, and the rolled up soil was enough to A few feet high, the swirling soil spreads with the gunpowder smoke.

The pungent smell of gunpowder spread across the battlefield.

The shelling did not stop and continued.

The soldier in charge of scouting in front shouted loudly: "The enemy is coming up!"

The soldiers hiding in the tunnel woke up, stood up from the trench, lay down on the dirt and looked into the distance, the shells falling from time to time caused them great trouble.

Xia Yuan shouted, "Is anyone injured?"

No one said anything, Wang Xiaoliang shouted: "Liu Tiezhu is injured."

"You little brat."

Liu Tiezhu cursed, and shouted: "Platoon leader, I'm fine, I was scratched by the shells, it's nothing serious."

He covered his arms and said, "What are you looking at, quickly tie me up with a bandage."

Tan Zhanbiao ran over, patted the dirt off his head, and said, "It's all right."

"Squad leader, it's okay, you're healthy."

Liu Tiezhu shouted.

"The enemy is coming!"

The shouts of soldiers came from the battlefield again.

A group of U.S. troops charged towards the positions they defended. This was no longer a groping attack to judge the state of our firepower, but an organized and planned attack. The troops moved towards the target directly in front of them.

As soon as the heavy machine gun fired, the chain of fire formed in an instant was like two long whips.Shells are roaring overhead, and the enemy is attacking.

Wang Xiaoliang threw the dust off his face, and started to fire his PPS submachine gun. There were several comrades beside him holding rifles. They started a habitual movement, aimed at the target, stood still for a few seconds, then pulled the trigger, and then pushed it up and down. a bullet.Wang Xiaoliang also started to do "three-point shooting" to hit the target, but there were too many enemies, and they had long-range howitzer support, many soldiers were seriously injured.

Xia Yuan was facing the enemy one after another. He held the big eight pellets, bang bang bang, and the clear sound exploded in his ears, and was swallowed by the roaring shells. The bullets accurately hit the enemy's machine gunner, destroying them. A U.S. lieutenant in the assault team.

Chen Lie also aimed and fired at the machine gunners and walkie-talkie soldiers in the enemy team. There were too many enemies charging, and once the enemy found a location with fierce firepower, they would order the rear artillery to strike at that location.

So much so that since the start of the war, Xia Yuan and Chen Lie have been constantly bombarded by the enemy.

This made Xia Yuan feel very strange, but he couldn't tell where the strange point was. He could only move quickly with his gun and came to a new shooting point. The soldiers who fired the rockets, the bullets swishing, pierced through the helmets of the US military, and their heads fell to the ground.

He squatted down, pulled out the ejected magazine, and reloaded a new magazine. He was about to raise his head, but there was a sharp whistling sound above his head.

It landed on top of his head with a bang, and the soil almost buried him.

"Platoon leader, platoon leader!"

A soldier ran over and pulled Xia Yuan up. There were buzzing sounds in his ears, and he shook his head. Xia Yuan shouted: "I'm fine, go to fight, don't let the enemy come up!"

This kind of battle is completely different from the cruelty of Shangganling. Because of its special geographical location, Shangganling cannot launch a large-scale attack. It can only use companies and platoons as units. In the highest period, a battalion was organized to attack the position.

The 336.8 highland is different. This is the main position of the enemy's attack. As soon as the battle started, the enemy launched a fierce attack. The enemy was so dense that it was impossible to tell how strong the enemy was, at least in a battalion.

Although the enemy's attack is fierce, the resistance of the volunteers is also very tenacious. Xia Yuan's front is even the line of defense that the enemy cannot break through. Push the plug eight times in a row, and eight enemies will fall to the ground.

He changed the order very quickly, and it took almost half the time to breathe when the gunshot rang out from his position again.

The enemy seemed to be aware of Xia Yuan, and shells fell on the positions around him.

"Why are the enemy's mortars so fierce, they are not afraid of blowing up their own people!"

The soldier who helped Xia Yuan shouted.

Xia Yuan was stunned for a second, squatted down, and immediately realized what was wrong. It was obviously the enemy's mortar. He listened carefully to a shell that landed on the ground. The sound was crisp and powerful, not as powerful as a howitzer. And the firepower of mortars is much higher than that of howitzers.

"The enemy's mortars are only two miles away from us."

Xia Yuan judged the position of the enemy's mortars, but the enemy's attack was too violent, and the formation of the three companies was lined up, so that the pressure on them was enormous.

The situation on the 336.8 highland is complicated, and it is impossible to defend all the places even if the troops of the first battalion are scattered. To form a skirmish formation lined up, the three combat teams shouldered a line of defense tens of meters wide, and they could not support each other yet.

The enemy's forces were concentrated again, coupled with artillery support, the attack was extremely violent.However, our army's troops were scattered and our firepower could not be concentrated. Even if the enemy's artillery positions were taken away, our army was still violently attacked by the enemy, and the enemy's mortars were equipped to company-level units, blowing up the enemy's artillery positions However, the enemy reinforcements still brought a large number of small-caliber mortars, and with a little aiming, they could pose a huge threat to our army.

Xia Yuan emptied a magazine, and realized that in such a battle, only relying on the big eight grains was far from enough. He turned his head and looked around. At some point, the soldier who helped him up had died. Grab the submachine gun on the opponent and shoot at the enemy. A series of bullets are fired in rows. A large number of enemies lie down, and the enemies behind quickly lie down.

Seeing this, he rang the grenade again and threw out the grenades one by one. The grenades exploded in the air above the enemy's head, and the broken shrapnel caused great damage to the enemy.

"Fuck! He's not dead, he's not dead! Let the artillery, blow him up!"

The wounded foreign devils screamed in pain. They encountered a very powerful Chinese in the front of their attack. His marksmanship was very accurate and he knocked out their walkie-talkie soldiers and machine gunners. Fortunately, the soldiers around him were not strong enough, otherwise they would have It is difficult to launch a ferocious attack on this Chinese in the front.

Xia Yuan threw seven grenades in a row, and the enemy who exploded did not dare to show his body. He grabbed the submachine gun and fired at the enemy in the distance until the magazine was empty. Then he touched the magazine on the soldier and found There was only one clip left on him.

With a buzzing in my mind, I immediately realized why their combat effectiveness could not be compared with that of the soldiers in the Shangganling period.

Out of ammo!
During the Shangganling period, a large amount of ammunition was stored in the tunnels, enough to consume a company for a month, but now it is the early days of the Korean War, and the logistics supply is seriously insufficient. In addition, the soldiers continue to conduct mobile warfare, and the ammunition cannot be replenished in time. Arrived at 336.8 Heights At that time, the ammunition on every soldier was almost exhausted.

When the enemy launches an attack, the soldiers dare not use firepower to suppress the enemy at all, and can only shoot when the enemy enters the range of fire. The body didn't cause too much waste, but because of the lack of follow-up firepower, they couldn't suppress this enemy, so the battle was very difficult.

Xia Yuan had never experienced such a battle. In a flash, he loaded the ammunition of the submachine gun, reached out and grabbed the big eight, and loaded the bayonet.

Taking a deep breath, Xia Yuan stood up abruptly when the enemy woke up from the explosion of the grenade just now, picked up the submachine gun, and pulled the trigger at the enemy's body. There was a rattling gunshot, accompanied by the enemy's Falling to the ground, a shuttle emptied of bullets.

Xia Yuan picked up the Big Eight again, pulled the trigger, and knocked out eight American soldiers. When reloading, the enemy swarmed up.He pulled the trigger again and knocked out the eight enemies who were rushing in front of him. The other positions had already been broken through by the enemy.

Reloaded in seconds, raised the muzzle of the gun, and pulled the trigger. With the sound of gunfire, the American devil who rushed to his side fell to the ground.

What the U.S. military fears most is hand-to-hand combat. They are not opponents of the volunteers at all. The stabbing technique turns the enemy around and stabs the opponent's chest with a knife. There was no movement for a while, and the U.S. troops rushing up remained silent. Regardless of their tall and burly men, their opponents were bayonet fighters who had experienced many battles. Xia Yuan put all the American soldiers who came up to the ground, and the bayonet drove straight in, piercing into the enemy's body.

Pulling out the bloody bayonet, Xia Yuan kicked an American soldier who was rushing towards him with fierceness in his eyes. The huge force actually kicked him out and hit the soldiers behind him. The U.S. military pulled the trigger, and the bullet sank into the opponent's body.

Shouts came from his ears, he raised his head and saw dozens of US troops running towards him, and suddenly gunshots sounded from the side, these US troops were knocked to the ground before they rushed to this side.

Following the gunshots, it was Liu Tiezhu. The U.S. troops in front of him were resisted by the soldiers of the second squad, so they helped him out of the siege.

"Platoon leader, be careful!"

Liu Tiezhu shouted again.

Xia Yuan raised his head, took a step back, raised the gun in his hand and fired a shot, a foreign devil who rushed over fell headlong into the trench, the bayonet pierced through his back with a puff, and twisted it forcefully, The foreign devils on the ground trembled uncontrollably and died in pain.

Seeing that something was wrong, the U.S. soldiers who rushed forward were repelled abruptly by the volunteer soldiers in hand-to-hand combat, and the enemy retreated like a flood.
