blood of vietnam war

Chapter 60

When I turned my gaze to the enemy, I frowned in surprise.

The attack of the Vietnamese army seems to be going too slowly. It has been so long and it is still around 800 or [-] meters. I was worried that I would miss the best sniping time because my speed was too slow. far away...

This seems to be completely different from Yue Guizi's vigorous charge before!

The Vietnamese army should know that most of our weapons have a range of only three or 400 meters, and around 400 meters there are half-height grass everywhere, bomb craters for hiding, and corpses that can be used as bunkers...so 400 meters away The Vietnamese army can boldly let go and charge.

However, all these Yue Guizis in front of me now seem to be dawdling...

It was a trap, and I was quick to judge.But as for what kind of trap it is, I can't figure it out... I can only frown and carefully observe the Vietnamese troops moving forward slowly through the sniper scope.

What kind of trap will it be?

surrounded?ambush?These seem to be unreliable. The Yue Guizi must go through the road at the foot of the mountain to get around us, but that road has been blocked by our firepower.

Then an even more unbelievable scene appeared... In my sniper scope, some Vietnamese soldiers have already started to pull out their engineering shovels and start digging foxholes.

What's the use of digging foxholes at such a distance?The range of our military weapons is not enough, is it?

Unless...unless their foxholes are not for hiding, but for hiding!

Dodge the gun...! ! ! !

A sentence the old man said quickly flashed into my mind, and I still clearly remember the way he gritted his teeth: "You devil is so cunning! After a burst of gunfire, pretend to charge, and fight again when we all set up guns in the trenches." The cannon... caught us by surprise, and their troops took advantage of this moment to charge..."

"Worse!" Thinking of this, I hurriedly shouted to the front: "Get down! Get down! The devil is going to shoot!"

But it was too late. Before I finished speaking, I heard a roar in the air, and then a burst of "boom..." flames rose near our army's position, and our army's position was instantly shrouded in a thick blackness. In the smoke.

This shelling time was not long, perhaps only 1 minute before and after, but the damage to our army is expected to be not small.The reason is that our soldiers were completely unprepared. Most of the soldiers put their upper body out of the trenches to prepare for battle, and all kinds of weapons were also placed on the trenches... So such an explosion would be miserable. All kinds of shrapnel and gravel belts Flying around with a sharp whistling sound, shooting soldiers and knocking over countless weapons, just this one hit the defense line built by our army into a mess.

What's more terrible... Before the smoke of the gunfire cleared, the Vietnamese army who was ready to stand in front of our army's position shouted and rushed towards our army's position with bayonets...

"Fight!" The company commander finally gave the order to start the fight.

But it is conceivable that the firepower of our army's defense line is undoubtedly much smaller at this time.

Isn't it?I glanced at our army's defense line. I don't know whether the two squad machine guns were damaged by shrapnel or stuck in the mud. No matter how the machine gunners fiddled with it, it was useless; He was knocked down in the trench by shrapnel; although the other soldiers were fine, they were blocked by the gunpowder smoke and could not shoot accurately at the Vietnamese army.

So, at this time, our army seemed to have to wait for the Vietnamese army to rush to the front and kill us one by one...

However, I am not willing to wait for death like this, because I still have this sniper rifle in my hand!

"Bang!" A bullet was fired from my rifle.

Wang Kechang next to me looked at me blankly, I thought he was weird, even with binoculars he couldn’t see the enemy behind him through the gunpowder smoke, and of course he couldn’t give me the direction, so he couldn’t figure it out How did I find the enemy.

"Bang!" Another bullet was fired.

Of course I was not aimless, because every bullet fired would bring a scream in the smoke.

What Wang Kechang didn't know was that the reason why I was able to find the enemy accurately was because the sun had already risen at this time... The sunlight reflected from Yue Guizi's bayonet would emit a little light like fish scales through the gunpowder smoke.Of course, the light is fleeting, and it's hard to spot if you don't look carefully, but it's enough for me.

"Bang!" This shot hit not the enemy, but a grenade thrown in the air.

Although the gunpowder smoke filled the air and the visibility was poor, the smoke in the mid-air became much thinner after a gust of mountain wind blew, which made me just able to see a grenade with green smoke rolling towards the trench of our army... I walked towards the trench without thinking. It fired a bullet.

Sometimes, hitting such a grenade is much easier than hitting a Vietnamese soldier, because it is a regular parabolic movement, and the Vietnamese soldier is a veteran who knows how to go fast and slow and change direction from time to time .

But hitting a grenade is far more costly than hitting a Vietnamese soldier.Isn't it?If this grenade fell into the trenches of our army, it might kill or injure a few more people, but now it has changed its direction of movement and exploded among the Yue Guizi...

The soldiers fired all kinds of weapons soon, and the gunpowder smoke gradually dissipated, but it seemed that it was too late... The Yue Devils only took advantage of the moment when our army's position was bombed, or it could be said that they were covered by gunpowder smoke. At the moment of our army's position, it rushed to the front of our army's position.

So the cruel hand-to-hand combat kicked off. At first, the two sides threw a piece of grenade at each other... I can't tell what it was like. The enemy and the enemy threw rows of grenades at each other like throwing stones. It was blood and flesh flying everywhere, and screams everywhere.However, before the screams stopped, there was another cry of killing... Teams of Vietnamese troops, under the cover of grenade smoke, charged towards our trenches with bayonets.

This move should be our army's tactics.I've heard the old man say that when our People's Liberation Army was fighting the Yankees, we relied on the cover of the smoke from the grenade to quickly rush up and entangle with the Yankees, but this trick has now been learned by the Yue Japs.

"Comrades! Go!" Our soldiers also rushed towards the enemy following the order of the company commander...

Some people might say, isn't it good for us to just hide in the trenches?Why charge towards the enemy?

Trenches can only serve as a cover when the enemy is bombarded and the distance is far away. If the enemy is too close...it will become a ready-made grave instead.

Isn't it?The Yueguizi's grenades and explosives can be easily thrown into the trenches, and because the trenches are relatively closed, the power of the shock wave after the explosion of the grenades and explosives can be doubled, which can cause a large number of casualties to the soldiers in the trenches.On the other hand, if the Vietnamese army stood in front of the trenches, and our soldiers were in the trenches...it would undoubtedly be a kind of condescension, whether it was stabbing or shooting the enemy at close range, it would take advantage.

But it will be different if we launch a charge, so at least we can deal with the Vietnamese army condescendingly because of the terrain.

Therefore, the command of the company commander is undoubtedly correct.It's just that this stumps me... The colors of the military uniforms of the enemy and ours are very similar, coupled with the smoke of gunpowder, so in front of my eyes is a colorful field full of soldiers fighting each other everywhere, and it is impossible to distinguish between the enemy and us!Even if some are clearly distinguished, they are twisted together and cannot be fought.

I couldn't help but frowned, rushed up like the soldiers?

This is obviously not a good idea. Holding a sniper rifle, I should play the role of a sniper rather than a soldier with a bayonet, although the sniper rifle in my hand does have a bayonet.

But if I don't rush forward... I am worried that I will accidentally injure my own people if I just shoot like this.

calm!calm……

I remind myself over and over again.

I have to admit that I panicked when I saw the Vietnamese army rushing up and the enemy and us twisted together, because I knew very well in my heart that the quality of the Vietnamese army was one or two points higher than our army.If the Vietnamese army charged and was beaten by our army's firepower...the quality is not obvious, but hand-to-hand combat...then the comparison is the quality, the combat experience!Those of us recruits who have only fought a few battles, and even some children who have just turned up, are fighting hand-to-hand with the experienced Vietnamese army?I dare not even think about it.

So now is almost a moment of life and death, and the Vietnamese army may fully occupy our army's position in the next second.

At this time, I couldn't help thinking of a sentence the old man said: "To be an excellent soldier, you must not only be able to fight, but also be able to be beaten... Only when you are beaten, you can call yourself a real good soldier. !"

My old self always thought it was bullshit, war?Everyone uses a gun, and being beaten is a shot, so how can we not panic or be afraid?Even if you don't panic or fear, it would be honorable to turn into a corpse, right? Would you still be a good soldier?

Only now do I know... the beating here refers not to myself, not to an individual, but to the entire army.

The old man's words are not rough.

I took a deep breath to calm myself down, and even closed my eyes and calmed down for a few seconds at this critical moment...

It was amazing to say that when I opened my eyes again, I found that I had found a way to distinguish between friends and enemies: most of the enemies were facing me from the front, while the friendly troops were facing me from the back.

Although this principle is simple to say, it is often ignored or not thought of by people in such tense moments on the battlefield, such as me.

Now that I can distinguish between the enemy and the enemy, it is naturally time for the rifle in my hand to play its role.

Especially now, the wolves and tigers of the Vietnamese army have rushed up wave after wave, our soldiers fell one after another, and the defense line has begun to crumble...
