The beacon of youth

The high-speed dive plane is getting lower and lower, so low that the pilots in the cockpit can be seen from the ground. These pilots seem to have received Hu Zongnan's death order. Dive down, while the on-board machine gun starts firing.

The machine gun barrels on the two wings of the plane sparkled, "Gu Gu Gu", the shooting sound of "Gu Gu Gu Gu" seemed to ring in the ears.

The large-caliber aviation machine gun turned the ground straight up, and the earth and rocks flew randomly. When the pilot dived to a height of only a few hundred meters above the ground, the pilot pulled the joystick and raised the nose to raise it. A bomb came, and the black bomb flew over flickeringly.

The soldiers of the Independence Regiment on the mountain are generally not very old, and they are curious when they are young. Some curious troublemakers sneak out of the cave when the commander is not paying attention, and hide in the cracks of the big rocks. The two fighters bet each other that they wanted to see how the plane laid eggs.

Looking at the bombs flying over from the sky, a little soldier shouted, "What, the plane has really laid eggs, which is similar to our family's bold bottle."

The gall bottle in the mouth of this little soldier was a common thing in the northern countryside in the past. It was a decoration made of ceramics. (Older friends should still remember it, but the larger the gallbladder, the more valuable it is. The blue-gray gallbladders used by ordinary people are commonly called ash piles, and they are not worth much.)

The heavy air bombs are much more powerful than the cannons. When the explosion explodes, the ground will crack, and the ground will shake. A few air bombs will make the whole mountain shake a little bit.

And these are not the most powerful. The aircraft carried not only aerial bombs, but also some burning. After these burning and explosions, the defensive position of the Chakou Independent Regiment was already in flames.

The oil slurry imported from the United States can not only burn the stones, but also take away the oxygen in the air when burning, so that the air above the position is temporarily in a vacuum state, and all living things within the explosion range will be destroyed due to the lack of air. Suffocated to death due to oxygen, to put it bluntly, suffocated to death due to being out of breath, this is the power of burning. [

Li Yong asked everyone to block the entrance of the cave with quilts and sundries. Anyway, no matter what they did, they couldn't let the thick smoke pour in, otherwise they would be choked to death if they were not blown to death.

The soldiers hid in the newly dug large cave in the back mountain, and the soil on the roof of the cave was still falling straight down. Every air bomb fell down and caused a wave of shaking. After being shocked, everyone was a little scared. Without these caves that were dug later, the casualties would have been huge. Maybe this burst of ground and air attacks would have cost the Independence Regiment more than half. The soldiers all said that Xiao Cheng really had a good idea. When it's over, we will ask the Youth League Party Committee to give Xiaocheng some credit.

Xiao Cheng was full of complacency: "I didn't look at what we do, the company commander of the engineering company, who specializes in fortifications, has been a security guard for the regiment leader for more than a year, so he has to learn something, doesn't he? "

San Niu pinched Xiao Cheng angrily: "Don't you know how to be humble? Look at you, you are enough to catch up with Hu Zongnan."

The planes in the sky carried out fierce air strikes on the positions held by the Independence Regiment. The positions were shrouded in thick smoke and fire. The commander of the 29th Army at the foot of the mountain, Liu Kan, and his staff were extremely excited. The burning is strong enough, I don't believe how many living communists there are on your mountain.

Liu Kan ordered the front-line commander: "Order the troops to move down the mountain, and attack immediately while the planes are bombing the communist army and dare not show their heads."

The officer said in a daze: "Sir, the plane bombing hasn't stopped yet, aren't the brothers also killed when they go up?"

Liu Kan: "Stupid, who told you to go up to the top of the mountain, let the soldiers move forward gradually, stop outside the range of the aircraft's firepower, wait for the bombing to end, and rush up as soon as our artillery fire extends, don't leave it to the communist army Time to react, understand?"

Officer: "It's better to be in the military position. I'll let my brother do it right away."

Liu Kan: "It's not for the soldiers to do it, but for you to lead someone to rush up to me. If you can't make it up, don't come back to see me. You can think about what to do."

The officer saluted Liu Kan with a touch of his feet, then turned around to organize the troops, thinking while walking, fuck, this old boy Liu Kan made me work hard, so let's go all out and fight the Communist army up.

Under the orders of officers at all levels, the Kuomintang troops at the foot of the mountain moved up the mountain little by little at the risk of being killed by planes and artillery fire. It is more than 100 meters away from the main position of the independent regiment.

The soldiers of the independent regiment waited for the enemy's firepower to extend and moved forward from the back mountain. When they moved to the top of the mountain, the attacking Kuomintang soldiers were almost in front of them.

The two armies met with jealousy. As soon as Wang Huo's fifth battalion moved to the position, the Kuomintang soldiers rushed to the front. All the trenches on the position were blown up, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of dust. It was able to sink half a foot deep, and the soldiers and officers of the Kuomintang rushed over screaming, shit, this time they really rushed up, without a position to rely on, what can the Communist army on the mountain do?

The soldiers shot desperately at the charging enemy. Wang Huo didn't care whether the reserve team was in the reserve team or not. He threw all his strength into it in an instant. As long as you can beat the enemy down. [

At this time, we can see the advantage of short-term firepower. Hundreds of submachine guns in the hands of the soldiers of the Fifth Battalion fired at the same time. After a little contact, the enemy fell down a large area, but even this was a little bit unable to stop the Kuomintang soldiers who rushed up. However, the melee still has the advantage of more people. The biggest advantage of the Kuomintang soldiers at the foot of the mountain over the independent regiment is the number of people.

Fortunately, Ning Jinshan led the soldiers of the fourth battalion and rushed behind the fifth battalion. Now the so-called fourth battalion is very incomplete. The five infantry platoons are all supported by Wang Huo. Ning Jinshan only has four platoons This is already the entire strength of the fourth battalion.

Liu Kan at the foot of the mountain also saw hope, and ordered the troops to rush up the mountain regardless of casualties.

Groups and battalions of soldiers swarmed up the mountain, without any formation or tactics, as long as they rushed up. No matter how tough the communist army was on the mountain, they were still few in number.

Li Yong saw that the fourth and fifth battalions were difficult to deal with, so he ordered Wei Gang's machine gun battalion to go into battle immediately. Ning Jinshan's pressure was a little lighter, but only a little lighter. The two armies in the front line were already fighting together. Wei Gang's machine gun battalion could not provide direct support, so he had to attack the second and third echelons that followed.

The charging Kuomintang soldiers continued to pour upwards. The soldiers of the fourth and fifth battalions, including the soldiers of the machine gun battalion, all lay down on the ground, shooting, shooting, shooting, throwing, throwing, throwing. After more than ten meters, it exploded in the crowd.

The fragments of the explosion even affected their own people, but now they can't care about anything else, no one cares whether the thrown grenade can hurt their own people.

The soldiers had only one belief, to beat down the enemy no matter what they said, if the enemy were allowed to protrude from here, not only would the blood of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment be shed for several days and nights, but the entire campaign of the field army would also be ruined.

However, because the trenches had been flattened, the soldiers had no support points to conceal, and were directly greeted by the enemy's covering firepower behind the attacking troops. The casualties of soldiers in several battalions increased rapidly, and the firepower of the Kuomintang's covering attack The machine gun battalion was also taken care of intensively. The soldiers fell one by one, the shooters of the machine gun battalion were constantly replaced, and the firepower of the heavy machine guns was intermittent.

Seeing this scene, Ma Quanyou, Commander of the Second Battalion, Ma Changsheng, Commander of the Third Battalion, and Gao Xiang, Commander of the Artillery Battalion, all shouted: "Regimental Commander, let us go up."

Li Yong ignored them, and instead called Sun Quanhou and He Cuihua over: "The situation is very critical, you two will bring your entire battalion up, and I will assign Xiaocheng's engineering company and Sanniu's repair company to all of them." For your battalion, there is only one order, strengthen the position, and beat the enemy down."

Sun Quanhou and He Cuihua glanced at each other, and they both knew that the situation was very tense. Li Yong would not use the supply battalion until the critical moment. This was not a small task for the supply battalion to train troops, but a real defensive battle.

In a few minutes, the supply battalion and the two companies assigned to them had assembled. Sun Quanhou, He Cuihua, Xiao Cheng, and San Niu all led their teams to stand in front of Li Yong and Wang Chengde.

Li Yong stood in front of the soldiers and shouted: "Comrades, don't you always shout that you can't win a battle? Don't you always say that you have no chance? Now we have a chance. Our forward position is very dangerous. The enemy is following us." We fought together, and the first few battalions suffered heavy casualties. I order you to rush forward, reinforce them, and beat the enemy down. Are you confident, comrades?"

Amidst the deafening roar of the soldiers, Deputy Battalion Commander He Cuihua, the heroine in the Battle of Yulin, took a step forward with the submachine gun on her chest in her hand.

The girl felt the tension of the task as soon as the order was issued, and she brought a submachine gun in addition to her own shell gun. At this time, He Cuihua stood in front of the soldiers of the whole battalion despite her appearance: "Please, chief!" Don't worry, please take care of the regiment party committee, we will definitely complete the task, consolidate the position, and defeat the enemy." v! ~!
