Wearing dramas starts from Changjin Lake

Chapter 11 Ice Sculpture Company (Remembrance Chapter)
Gao Fei did not continue to point out the identity of the prince, but said: "Secretary Liu, I said this without any malice. I just want to remind you that this place is very dangerous."

The prince could feel the sincerity and concern in Gao Fei's tone, and he was slightly relieved.

Gao Fei went on to explain: "Although this place is far away from the battlefield, after the radio station is delivered, if you keep in touch with the front line frequently, these active radio signals will inevitably not be detected by the enemy. My suggestion is that you and the leaders Move it now."

The prince understood, and knew what Gao Fei was worried about.He didn't think that Gao Fei had already guessed his real identity, but that what Gao Fei was really worried about was the safety of the headquarters, the safety of the chiefs.

"You are very considerate, but... Neither I nor the chiefs can leave. The chiefs have the responsibilities of the chiefs, and I have my tasks."

"But, this place is really too dangerous, please change to another place, please."

The prince shook his head resolutely: "There has never been an absolutely safe place on the battlefield. I will not come here if I am afraid of death. I am like you, like hundreds of thousands of soldiers. I am a soldier, a soldier of the people! "

……

Gao Fei returned to the wooden house with a heavy heart. He failed to persuade the prince to leave, and he failed to change everything that had happened.

Is the destiny really inviolable?

Gao Fei sighed silently in his heart.

Five minutes later, Qilian set off on time. They had to cross more than 5 kilometers to reach the 200 highland of Changjin Lake.

This is just the straight-line distance on the map, if detours are added, the distance will be farther.

In fact, after the 9th Corps crossed the Yalu River, the first opponent they encountered was not the US military, but the harshest weather.

The never-before-experienced cold constantly challenged the soldiers. The coldness of the Gaima Plateau made every soldier who set foot on Changjin Lake unforgettable.

The starting point is located in the northern part of North Korea. The climate is very different from that in the south. It is very cold, and it can reach minus 20 degrees Celsius during the day.

Moreover, the marching route is full of mountains and there are few roads, so the soldiers encountered the greatest difficulties.

Each soldier's equipment weighs an average of 60 kilograms. In order to avoid the enemy's reconnaissance planes, they lie down at night and go out at night. From the map, the journey is only 50 miles, but in fact they need to walk overnight.

Coupled with the cold night, so many frostbite.

Many people suffered from frostbite on their hands and feet, and even developed chilblains, which ooze pus and swell.

It was so cold that the iron was sticking to his hands, and as soon as he took the gun, a layer of skin was taken off his hands.

Some soldiers walked in the snow for one night, and when they took off their shoes the next day, the skin on the soles of their feet, together with the shoes, came off.

Going further south, encountering plane bombing, killing many people.

He didn't dare to start a fire during the day, and secretly buried the fire to roast some food at night. The potatoes were baked half-baked. Gao Fei vomited and had diarrhea after eating, probably because of food poisoning.

A big man couldn't stand the three bubbles, and Gao Fei was so weak that his face turned pale.

Wu Wanli had no choice but to help him go.

It's snowing outside, sweating inside the cotton coat.When it stopped, it was as cold as falling into an ice cellar.

The potatoes were frozen into lumps, and Wu Wanli lost one of his teeth.

After the thick and thin Father Lei saw it, he covered the potatoes with his stomach until they were soft, and gave them to Wu Wanli to eat.

Taking advantage of the rest time during the day, Mei Sheng conducted some traditional education, so that everyone should not be afraid of suffering and continue to overcome difficulties.

Pinghe brought some salt, the rain and snow seeped into his pocket and melted, and he was reluctant to throw it away, so he pickled some wild vegetable roots and ate them as pickles.

Yu Congrong also ate up the dried peppers he brought.

The journey of more than 200 kilometers was extremely difficult.

On the battlefield, the evaluation from the opponent is often closer to the truth.The U.S. military believes that in the battle of Changjin Lake, the severe cold weather is their greatest ally.

The difficulties in logistical supply of the Volunteer Army led to a lack of clothing and food to keep out the cold, and their combat effectiveness was severely weakened by the freezing to death and frostbite of a large number of soldiers.

In fact, the most difficult factor to calculate is the spirit, the human spirit, and the steel-like will!

The 20th Company of the 59th Regiment of the 177th Division of the 6th Army of the Volunteer Army was ordered to stick to the Dead Eagle Mountain Highland.

The 125 officers and soldiers of the company were all dressed in thin military uniforms, lying prone in the trenches with guns, maintaining a fighting posture, and all froze to death on the high ground of Dead Eagle Ridge, like a group of ice sculptures ready to jump up at any time...

Later, comrades in arms found a last poem on the body of Song Amao, a Shanghai soldier:

"I love my family and my motherland, and I love my honor even more. I am a glorious volunteer soldier. Ice and snow! I will never surrender to you, even if I freeze to death, I will stand proudly on my position!"

Life was frozen, but the volunteer soldiers' belief in the motherland was not frozen!
National character is cast by war, and war reflects the bloodiness of a nation!
No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are, they can't stop the determination of the soldiers to move forward!
"Any news?" Wu Qianli asked.

Yu Congrong hugged the radio, heard the chi-chi voice inside, and shook his head: "Not yet."

Mei Sheng took the earphones over, adjusted the direction of the antenna, put it on his ears and listened, and there was a burst of singing from inside.

Father Lei asked, "What did you hear?"

"Merry Christmas."

Yu Congrong didn't understand English: "What do you mean?"

Ping He stayed with Gao Fei for a long time, and Gao Fei told him some foreign things along the way, such as Christmas, Valentine's Day, Christmas Eve and so on.

Immediately explained: "It is a holiday before the American New Year, called Christmas."

Father Lei was stunned: "Egg-laying Festival? Laying an egg is a festival, and the lives of Americans are not so good."

At this time, in a certain air force base of the US Army, tables and tables of food, big fish and big meat were placed.

The soldiers sang and danced and talked happily, not as if they were here to fight, but more like they were here for vacation.

Even so, a few soldiers complained about a covert mission, and Sunday's relaxation plans were in jeopardy.

At this time, the third battalion and nine companies of the Volunteer Army had reached the location designated by the headquarters.

The scouts lay on the top of the mountain, using binoculars to observe the advancing US military convoy on the road below.

Then, he took out a lens and took a picture of Tan Ziwei, the commander of the third battalion in the cave.

Tan Ziwei's guard immediately issued a warrant to signal the scouts to withdraw.

"Report to the battalion commander. It has been thoroughly investigated. This unit is the No. 30 Infantry Regiment of the Seventh Division of the US Army.

There are three battalions of the main infantry, a field artillery battalion, an engineer battalion, a tank company, and an air defense battalion.

The total strength is about 3000 people.

The current advancing formation is: tank companies guard the left and right sides, half-tracked transport vehicles in the middle, and artillery, engineers and air defense troops at the end. "

Looking at the formation formed by the scouts using bullets on the snow, Tan Ziwei analyzed: "According to the enemy's marching speed of three kilometers per day, before dark, their regiment headquarters is likely to be stationed near the 1100 Heights."

"And as far as I know, the 31st Regiment is known as the Polar Bear Regiment. It fought Siberia in World War I and the Pacific War in World War II. It is the trump card of the US military!"

Tan Ziwei swept the cheeks of the soldiers of the Ninth Company with sharp eyes: "Don't be afraid, what about the ace? We are playing the ace! We want to let the enemy know how hard our fists are!"

After speaking, he asked the correspondent to immediately report the detected intelligence to his superiors.

In a valley a few hundred meters away, Qilian finally received instructions from his superiors.

"The company commander, the instructor, the superior ordered our Seventh Company to reach the 31 Heights before the enemy's 1100st Regiment and occupy a favorable terrain."

Looking at the distribution of the enemy and us on the map, Wu Qianli knew the plan of his superiors: "As long as our seventh company arrives at the 1100 height before dark, we can stand in front of the enemy."

Mei Sheng nodded in agreement: "That's right, if we unite with other companies, we can make dumplings for the enemy's polar bear group!"

Papa Lei smacked his lips: "It's good to make dumplings, dumplings are the best."

Yu Congrong couldn't wait: "Company commander, when are we going to leave?"

Wu Qianli took out the few remaining frozen potatoes from his bosom, distributed them to Gao Fei, Wu Wanli and the others, and said in a low voice: "All of them have it. Prepare meals in 5 minutes, check ammunition, and go to 1100 Heights overnight. Stop!"

"Yes!"

Gao Fei gnawed on the potato with his teeth, grabbed a handful of Bai Xue and mixed it with it to swallow.

It may be that the stomach and intestines have become accustomed to cold water and cold food, and there has been no stomach trouble in the past two days.

Ping He checked the big eight pellets and bullets carefully, and after confirming that they were correct, he said to Gao Fei: "I heard that this polar bear group is an ace group, follow me closely when fighting, don't fall behind."

"Yes."

Gao Fei knew that Ping He was worried about his safety.

Qilian set off overnight and went straight to the 1100 highland.

The other companies have also arrived at the intended combat location.

At this time, the Polar Bear Group did not know that it was surrounded by the 27th Army.
