The beacon of youth

The forward troops of the [-]th Regiment went ashore, and group after group of soldiers climbed up from the big ice river, and then staggered forward.

The cotton-padded clothes all over his body were completely soaked. In the environment of tens of degrees below zero, within a few seconds, the soaked cotton-padded clothes turned into ice armor that hindered his movement.

Armor is the protective equipment used by ancient warriors in battle, but it is useless in the face of modern machine gun fire. Not only is it useless, but it also makes people's actions look extremely clumsy.

Wearing frozen cotton-padded clothes, unable to make various effective tactical actions, the most flexible fighters also became stiff rookies, and batch after batch of soldiers were swept down under the fire of machine guns.

The soldiers were very angry, because in such an environment, the fighting troops suffered too much, and felt that they could not use their energy and were too aggrieved.

How many bunkers can stop me?Some grassroots commanders are organizing firepower counterattacks to suppress the enemy's firepower so that more troops can go ashore, but the gun barrels in the hands of the soldiers are filled with water, and the gun barrels filled with water immediately freeze again. Cheng Bing had a weapon in his hand but couldn't fire it for a while.

I don't know who yelled: "Drink the urine and melt the barrel of the gun."

This is a good method. The troops used it when fighting in cold areas. The heat of urine can temporarily melt the weapon for a few seconds. The propulsion mechanism continues to move, and the next step will be easier, but North Korea is still too cold. The severe cold that occurs once in 50 years has become a big problem for people to survive in the wild. In such cold weather, the seemingly simple peeing is also Not an easy task.What's more, the clothes of the soldiers were frozen, and they couldn't even untie their belts.Not to mention peeing.

Damn, the living can be suffocated by urine.

Head Wu Baoguang, who charged with the troops, scolded his mother anxiously.Because the head of the higher command organization was waiting for the news of their successful landing of the [-]th Regiment, the division commander and army commander were watching the movements of their [-]th Regiment, but they were blocked by several bunkers, and the troops were suppressed. On the beach, this made the proud regiment leader Wu very upset, and also felt very angry.

Li Yong and the soldiers of the small unit crossed the Linjin River among the [-]th Regiment, but they landed a little later than the forward sharp knife. Li Yong saw the command organization of the [-]th Regiment from a distance. Below the ribs.The head of the regiment, Wu Baoguang, was yelling and organizing troops to fight back.

Like the [-]th Regiment, most of the squad's weapons were soaked in river water, and the gun barrels were filled with ice water. Fortunately, the five heavy machine guns in the machine gun squad were fine. In order to suppress the enemy's firepower, the squad's machine gun squad A firing position was temporarily established in the middle of the big glacier. Later, in order to avoid the enemy's artillery fire, when the position was transferred, the machine gun was dragged away without even having time to disassemble the gun body, because Maxim's whole gun was too heavy.When I swam across the river, I was resisted by several soldiers with their shoulders, so the body of the gun was very dry, and not a drop of water went in.

This can be regarded as a crooked shot. The five heavy machine guns in the machine gun squad can fire at any time.There were not many people in the squad, and Li Yong was not far from the machine gun squad when he crossed the river, so he knew the situation very well.

Use topography.Jumping up and lying down for a while, Li Yong quickly maneuvered to the command post of the [-]th Regiment with a few people on the beachhead where artillery fire and bullets were flying.

Company commander Li Yuming muttered curses while running.Said that the clothes on his body are really worthy of the enemy's military uniform, and he will fight against him at critical moments.While running, he made him fall a few big somersaults, so he should be shot. As for how to shoot the enemy's uniform, it's not a question he has to think about. That's a profound truth that only the brigade commander can understand.

The deputy company commander, He Cuihua, did not save him any face at all, and revealed it unforgivingly: "Li Yuming, are you used to fighting in tanks, and you just make irresponsible remarks after a few steps? Our Eighth Route Army Where has the old tradition gone? Why does the enemy’s military uniform not match? I think it’s because you still want to go back to the tank battalion and learn how the US imperialist army fights. There is something wrong in your head.”

He Cuihua's big hat made Li Yuming dizzy. How could he have something to do with imperialism after a few complaints, and lost the old tradition of the Eighth Route Army? ! !This girl He Cuihua is not only good at fighting, but also has a bad mouth. She should be more careful in the future.

The so-called command post of the regiment is too simple, or it can't be called a command post. The command post of the [-]th regiment only has two Czech light machine guns in charge of covering, watching the soldiers rushing to get angry It is estimated that the messing around is also a guy who can't fight.

"Commander Wu, how is the situation?"

Li Yong stepped under Tulenzi in a few steps and quickly lay down beside Wu Baoguang.

Commander Wu Baoguang's head was smoking anxiously. His [-]th Regiment suffered a lot of casualties, but they just crossed the Linjin River by force. The big battle is yet to come. If they run into obstacles everywhere at the beginning, how can the subsequent battle be fought? However, Wu Baoguang Having experienced too many battles, he is still calm now, turned his head and glanced at Li Yong and replied:

"The chief is also here. The situation is not good. The enemy's bunkers have very strong firepower. I observed and found that the enemy's firepower points are all linked together with trenches, and they can support each other at any time. Our suppressive firepower is insufficient. Go up Several blasting teams were lost."

Li Yong took a closer look, isn't it? The enemy's bunkers were built on the ridgeline of the beach, and the geographical location was well chosen. The projectiles spewed out from the shooting holes swept over one after another, knocking hundreds of meters away. The area was tightly sealed off, and our army's machine guns could not be fired because there was too much water when crossing the big ice river. The only thing in charge of cover was a light-weight rifle that could be held on the head when crossing the river. The machine guns were too weak, and with the flat beachhead terrain, the [-]th Regiment had no choice but to take the enemy's firepower several times up.

It seems that these bunkers must be eliminated in order to pass quickly, otherwise the troops will not be able to bypass them. The best weapons to deal with such low-level firepower points that can still communicate with each other are rocket launchers and recoilless guns that are easy for infantry to carry. Cannons are like the most common 39 fire and [-] Wu in the army of later generations. As long as there are these two weapons, the so-called hard bones will not become bones, but the reality now is that not only Li Yong's squad There is no such weapon, even the [-]th Regiment, the main force of the [-]th Army, does not have such weapons. The blasting equipment of the [-]th Regiment is only explosives and blasting tubes. The only thing left is the grenades carried by the soldiers.

There was no other way but to use people to send explosives to kill the nail blocking the way. The [-]th Regiment did indeed do this, but due to insufficient cover firepower, several blasting teams were sacrificed on the way.

Equipment, equipment, our army suffers from too many equipment problems. Li Yong knows that there must be such weapons on the opposite UN-army position. As long as we can capture them, it will be of great use, but if we want to capture the enemy's Weapons must first defeat the enemy, otherwise there will be no capture.

"Commander Wu, our terrain is not good, and this beach is not conducive to our army's charge. It is not a good way to force it."

"Chief, I also know that going hard is not a good way, but take a look, we are all surrounded by the impact plain of the Linjin River, and there is no terrain that can be hidden. So what if we don't go hard."

"Don't worry, Commander Wu. My squad has brought a machine gun squad with five Maxims attached to it. They are all equipment that can be fired at any time. Pull them up later and use firepower to seal the gun holes of the enemy's bunker. Let's send the explosives up again, Li Yuming, bring the machine gun squad up."

Hearing that there are five Maxims that can be launched at any time, the eyes of head Wu Baoguang immediately lit up, and the look in Li Yong's eyes was wrong. He is human, and we are also human. Why can he have more than 200 people in a small team? There is nothing wrong with five heavy machine guns, how many thousand are there in our three, four and six regiments, is it not as good as their more than 200 people? ?However, right now is not the time to compare the limelight with the superiors, winning the battle is the real business.

Commander Wu Baoguang's mind turned countless times in an instant, and when he was a little distracted, he saw a guy next to the young chief drag out a soldier, and this soldier was carrying a walkie-talkie.

The soldier with the walkie-talkie turned on the equipment skillfully, and called the machine gun squad to bring up all the equipment as soon as possible.

After the War of Liberation, walkie-talkies were not a rare item in the ranks of the People's Liberation Army. Commander Wu Baoguang was no stranger to this kind of communication equipment, because there were such communication equipment in the [-]th and [-]th regiments. Rarely, the [-]th Regiment can only be equipped with a walkie-talkie for troops above the battalion level, and units below the company don’t even think about it. The entire [-]th Regiment only has five walkie-talkies, and one of them is broken, but look. The meaning of the small unit from the superior is that a very ordinary machine gun squad is equipped with such equipment, which makes Wu Baoguang, the head of our main force, the [-]th regiment, very depressed.

Hmph, the superior unit is a cow, and there are walkie-talkies in the infantry squad! !The chiefs are too biased, no, my old Wu's troops are also the main force, and our [-]th regiment is the trump card, why don't you equip us with such good guys, and we must go to the chiefs to make a fuss after the battle is over.

Wu Baoguang really misunderstood his superiors. The equipment of Li Yong's squad was all the independent brigade's own stuff. They were brought from Shigatse all the way to North Korea, and had nothing to do with the superiors.

Logistics has always been a shortcoming of the People's Liberation Army, which is recognized by everyone. In fact, insufficient communication capabilities are also a problem that cannot be ignored in the People's Army. (To be continued..)
