blood of vietnam war

Chapter 180 The Charge

Under the attack of our soldiers, the Vietnamese tanks only slowed down for a while, and then rushed forward again with full horsepower.

I can understand this kind of behavior. After all, they have only one way to survive, not to mention that it is difficult for tanks to retreat in this canyon... so they can only charge forward.

"Keng" With the sound of steel colliding, the following tank quickly hit the wreckage of the tank blown up by our army.I think it is very likely that the Vietnamese army tankers got the order before entering the canyon: do not brake at any time.So the wreckage of the tank was quickly pushed forward slowly...

From a certain point of view, the Vietnamese army is also testing the courage of our army... They will be lucky and deceive themselves into thinking that there are only a few people in our army who have the courage to jump on the tank with explosives...

However, they soon discover that this idea is dead wrong.

Fighting wars is something that often involves someone taking the lead and others will follow... If this phenomenon can be called a "herd mentality", it can be fine, in short, if someone is greedy for life and fears death and becomes a deserter, he will soon be aroused. The timidity in the hearts of other fighters.Conversely, if someone is not afraid of death and fights against the enemy, it will also arouse the blood of the soldiers.

Fortunately, the unit under me belongs to the latter.

So when the Vietnamese tank rushed up again, the next soldier didn't hesitate at all, and just shouted: "Comrades, fight more Vietnamese devils for me!" Then he jumped towards the Vietnamese tank with the explosives down.

After fighting so many battles, the soldiers also know that the front armor of the tank is the thickest, while the side armor and rear armor are relatively thin, especially the rear armor...there is not only thin but also a large space for the soldiers So the soldiers chose the rear armor of the tank very rationally.

This is exactly what makes it hard for me to imagine. You must know that this is a suicidal attack. Before jumping down, the soldiers knew that they would die if they jumped down, and they would not even find a whole piece of meat. It is more about the life that is about to be lost, the loved ones, and what will be left after death... rather than which part of the jump has a higher success rate.

But seeing is believing, I can't help but believe that the soldiers jumped down rationally like this...

The fire protection troops of the Vietnamese army seemed to want to prevent this action of our army, so all kinds of weapons quickly hit the top of the tank or directly at the tail of the tank.

Yet all this of them is labor:

First of all, the canyon is not only dimly lit but also full of smoke. They can't see where the target is at a distance of more than ten meters, so they can only fight around like a blind man touching an elephant.

Secondly, once the soldiers jumped out of hiding, even if they were shot in the air, it still couldn't stop them from falling on the tank with the explosive package.

The only difference is that the living fighters will do everything possible to grab what can be caught on the tank before the explosive package explodes, while the sacrificed fighters may fall under the tank and affect the explosion effect.

However, even if the soldiers were hit in the air, they would still have a breath when they fell on the tank. They used this last breath to cling to the tank until the explosive package exploded.

At this moment, a picture flashed in my mind: those soldiers who jumped on the tank were covered in wounds and blood on their faces, but they didn't care about their injuries at all, but they were holding on to the handrails of the tank tightly, staring at each other. Looking at the fuse of the explosive package, I watched it grow shorter inch by inch with green smoke, and finally exploded with a "boom".

I don't know how many people in this world can do this, I only know...they are my soldiers, just ordinary [***] people.

Finally, when the wreckage of the tanks piled up to five, Yue Guizi's tanks no longer had the courage to come up.

I think there are two reasons why they finally chose to stop:

One is that they believe that the [***] people guarding the canyon will jump down one by one and blow them up. There are more than [-] people in one row. Even if two people blow up a tank, their dozens of tanks It's not enough to hit [***] people.

The second is that they are also very clear that the five tanks were blown up on the small road and the small road has been blocked again. Unless the M60 is allowed to come up again to fill the small river and repair a road, otherwise the tanks will basically seek death.

It's just... Under such circumstances, does the m60 dare to come up to work again?Everyone knows that doing so will not do any good to the battle situation other than seeking death.

So the remaining Vietnamese tanks slowly retreated outward under the cover of the firepower of the T62.

"Attention all!" I ordered into the intercom: "No chasing, repeat, no chasing!"

"Yes!" Several replies came from the walkie-talkie, and their tone seemed to be a bit reluctant... I think if I hadn't issued this order, I'm afraid they would really catch up and blow up a few more tanks.

But this is not what I hope, because I think the lives of soldiers are far more precious than Vietnamese tanks. Adding a few Vietnamese troops seems to be making money without losing money.

What's more, I know very well that as long as the Vietnamese army cannot pass through this canyon, there are only two results waiting for them: surrender or be annihilated.There is absolutely no need for us to do this.

After being silent for a while, I ordered into the walkie-talkie: "All squads report casualties!"

"One person was injured in the second squad, three people were sacrificed, and there are still six people who are capable of fighting!"

"Squad Three...six people were sacrificed, one was injured, and there are still four capable of fighting!"

"Two people were injured in the first squad, five people were sacrificed, and the remaining four are capable of fighting!"

The number of victims is greater than the number of injured, and it is several times larger, which shows how tragic this battle was.Then I couldn't help being a little puzzled. The first class reported the situation at the end, and the voice on the intercom didn't seem to be Wu Zhijun... So I frowned and asked, "Where is the first class leader?"

"Report to the platoon leader!" There was a burst of sobs coming from the walkie-talkie: "The first squad leader died. He was the first to jump down with the explosive bag in his arms!"

I was taken aback when I heard this, and then I let out a long sigh... I never thought that this squad leader, who I always thought was weak in combat and placed in a secondary position, would make the bravest decision at a critical moment. He also made a good start and led the whole platoon to a beautiful victory.

The battlefield is like this, until a martyr dies, you can never imagine how amazing and amazing things he can do.However... now we can't even find the remains of the martyrs.

At this point, the commanders of the Vietnamese army seem to have realized that this canyon is something they will never be able to break through.So the focus of the attack was quickly shifted to the 217 Heights.

But it is not so easy to break through the 217 Heights at this time, because the Vietnamese army has not attacked the 217 Heights violently these days, so the soldiers consolidated the position of the 217 Heights at night when it was dark.

Of course, this consolidation is not just as simple as repairing fortifications... The 447 regiment specially brought an engineer platoon up when performing interspersed missions, in order to play a role when it encountered a minefield of the Vietnamese army during the attack.It's just that what everyone didn't expect was that... when this army played a role, it was not attacking, but defending the 217 highland.

The Yue Guizi installed a lot of landmines on the 217 highland, didn't they?Moreover, the Vietnamese army rushed out a passage with flesh and blood on the front of the 217 Heights...

In the past few days, the soldiers of the engineering unit had a whim, thinking that the mines of the Vietnamese army could be used to consolidate the defense of the 217 Heights.The method is to remove the landmines from other parts of the 217 Heights and transplant them to the passage where the Vietnamese army thought there were no landmines...

It should be said that the engineers and soldiers did it very successfully. Whenever it was dark, they would quietly climb up to the 217 height to carry the minefields on it... and they had a certain purpose in order to prevent the Vietnamese army from discovering it prematurely. Therefore, these new mines were still buried in areas that the Vietnamese army could not reach in a feint attack.

So when the Vietnamese army launched a general attack on the 217 highland, it was lively... They originally thought that the landmines in the front of them had been cleared by them, so they didn't consider using artillery fire to clear the mines before the attack, but went boldly. Upward rush... I didn't expect that when I rushed up, I was blown to pieces, and then I was severely beaten down by our army's firepower.

So the Vietnamese army had to pile up human lives as before... At the same time, they sent a team of infantry and tanks to charge the canyon several times.

But it made me breathe a sigh of relief.

This shows that the commander of the Vietnamese army has lost his position, and the battle he fought can be said to be chaotic.isn't it?Once you hit the canyon and found that you can't break it, you attack the 217 highland. If you find that the 217 highland can't be beaten, you turn your attention to the canyon...

This is completely different from the previous combat style of the Vietnamese army commander. There are only two possibilities for this: one is that the commander has escaped at this time, and now someone else is in command.The second is that the commander knows that the situation is over and commands indiscriminately.

Either way, it's a good thing for us.At the same time, I also know that the main force of our army is likely to be close at hand.

Sure enough, after more than half an hour, I heard a burst of violent shelling from outside the position... As soon as I heard the sound of the shells, I knew it was our artillery. cover.

Afterwards, the resounding charge sounded... Yes, it was indeed the charge. Due to the poor communication equipment of our army, the charge would be more convenient and reliable than the walkie-talkie on certain occasions.

At the same time, Company Commander Luo shouted excitedly on the walkie-talkie: "Second platoon leader! It's our troops, the main force has arrived! We have won!" (To be continued.)
