Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 1 Emergency Collection

"Assemble, urgently assemble!"

In the entire huge camp area, the sounds of military whistles and urgent assembly sounded one after another, accompanied by bursts of cold wind, resounding in the night sky.

Today is October 1950, 10. Although for most parts of the country, it is the beginning of autumn, but for the Northeast, it has entered the cold winter ahead of schedule.

Since there was a heavy snowfall a few days ago and it was cleaned up, the ground was frozen and uncivilized. The outside of the barracks can be described as icy and snowy, and the cold wind was blowing. Even the normal drills were cancelled. The entire company stationed here was originally stand by.

It was time to sleep at night, and many soldiers in the barracks took off their military uniforms and fell asleep in the warm quilts.

But at this time, they heard the piercing military whistle and the loud emergency assembly call from the orderly from outside.

It can be said that tonight, many soldiers were woken up just as they fell asleep, and had to quickly put on their military uniforms, tie up three horizontal and two vertical marching backpacks with rope, and push them away from the barracks. one by one rushed to the training ground outside the barracks to assemble.

Although it was cold and windy outside, the soldiers of this company didn't care about it. The reason is simple, that is, they felt that after resting for a month with nothing to do, they suddenly assembled urgently tonight. There must be a battle to be fought.

As a soldier, fighting wars is his bounden duty. What's more, the soldiers in the company have heard that they are going to cross the Yalu River this time and enter North Korea to defend their homes and defend the country against US aggression and aid Korea. They are teachers of justice.

Soon, within 5 minutes, the soldiers in each barracks gathered on the drill ground. At this time, the ground of the drill ground was not only covered with a thick layer of snow, but also frozen with ice.

It was very warm inside the barracks due to the burning of the kang, but when we left the barracks, the temperature immediately dropped to minus ten degrees.

At this moment, the soldiers standing on the drill ground ready to go, even though they were wearing cloth boots on their feet, cotton trousers on their lower bodies, and cotton jackets on their upper bodies.After staying for less than a minute, many people began to tremble.

Company Commander Zhao Yifa, standing in front of the team and fucking the soldiers, looked down at the pocket watch in his hand. The time displayed on it was 10:30 p.m. Order.

The third company was required to set off on time half an hour later, that is, at eleven o'clock in the evening, cross the Yalu River Bridge dozens of miles away, and enter the northern part of the Korean Peninsula to perform combat missions.

From the moment when the orderer blew the military whistle and shouted many calls for an emergency assembly, the soldiers of the three platoons of the entire company have gathered on the training ground. According to the countdown time set by the company commander Zhao Yifa, a total of A little over 4 minutes, less than 5 minutes.

According to the requirements for marching and gathering at that time, the soldiers must be assembled within 5 minutes. Needless to say, the soldiers of the company he led fully met this requirement, which made him quite satisfied.

After he put the rusty pocket watch in his hand into the pocket of his jacket, he looked at Wang Wenju, the company instructor standing beside him, and nodded to each other.

After the two of them exchanged glances, the company commander Zhao Yifa spoke loudly, facing the first soldier on the left in the first row opposite him, and gave orders: "Report the number!"

After company commander Zhao Yifa gave an order, the soldier on the far left in the first row of the assembled team began to count: "One, two, three, four, five... 94."

After listening to the report, Zhao Yifa, the company commander just now, was quite satisfied in his heart that his soldiers could assemble on time within five minutes, but at this moment his face suddenly changed, and he frowned, With a dark face, it is scary to look at.

With a loud voice, he shouted loudly: "The two of us have a total of 97 people. Except for me and the instructor, there should be 95 people. Why is there one person missing? Look at each row and class, which row is which?" The class is missing one person."

Most of the soldiers in the third company are veterans led by company commander Zhao Yifa, and less than one-third of the soldiers were recruited just two months ago. Chang's temper is very bad.

Now that Zhao Yifa's face was livid and angry, these platoon leaders and squad leaders didn't dare to slack off in the slightest, and hurriedly went to count the soldiers under them. If you don't come, it's simply disorganized and undisciplined.

Less than a minute later, a row of platoon leaders stepped forward from the middle of the line and stood up. First, they issued a military salute to the company commander Zhao Yi who was standing opposite him, and reported: "Report to the company commander, Sun Lei, a soldier from three companies, one platoon and one squad, did not come. This is my serious dereliction of duty as the platoon leader and the first squad leader, and I am willing to accept the punishment of military discipline and regulations.

After saying this, Liu Sanshun, the leader of the first platoon, changed the subject, boldly, and said loudly: "Liu Sanshun, the leader of the third company and the first row, asked the company commander for instructions. I will take the leader of the first squad, Niu Tiezhu, to the barracks of the first squad." Bring the little bastard Sun Lei over here, and ask the company commander and instructor for approval."

After hearing the platoon leader Liu Sanshun say that the soldier named Sun Lei came from the third company, platoon and squad under his leadership, the company commander Zhao Yifa was even more annoyed than before.

This is mainly because since the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, this company has had a fine revolutionary tradition since its establishment. It is the most valiant company in the whole regiment, and it has the reputation of "Sharp Knife Company".

Whether they participated in the War of Resistance Against Japan at the beginning or the War of Liberation later, they fought no less than a hundred battles and were almost victorious in every battle. No matter how powerful the enemy army was, they had never lost a single battle.

And Zhao Yifa, who is now the company commander, was the squad leader of the third company, one platoon and one squad at the beginning of the company's establishment, and then worked from the squad leader to the first platoon leader, and then to the current third company company commander.

At the beginning, when he was the squad leader of the third company and the first platoon, their class was the "sharp knife class" of the third company, and when he was the leader of the third company and the first platoon, the third company and the first platoon he led were the "sharp squad" of the third company. Sharp Knife Row".

From the establishment of the third company to the present, no one has dared to miss even an emergency assembly. Zhao Yifa, who used to be the leader of the first platoon and the first platoon, would be surprised if he wasn't furious.

Zhao Yifa, the company commander clenched his fists, looked at Liu Sanshun, the leader of the platoon standing opposite him, and Niu Tiezhu, the leader of the platoon and the squad who lowered his head, and said angrily: "You two, don't go, just give me an honest look." Stay here, I want to go and see for myself, what kind of guy is this recruit named Sun Lei under your hands."

That's right, this recruit named Sun Lei was recruited to their third company two months ago. He has never violated military discipline and regulations. That's why they were assigned to work in one row and one shift in each of their three companies.

Those fighters in the three companies and one row were also surprised when they heard that the person who did not come to the emergency assembly tonight was Sun Lei. Lei.

Under the darkness of the night, all the soldiers standing in a row of three companies on the training ground, watching the company commander Zhao Yifa walking towards the barracks in the distance, and his back gradually drifting away, couldn't help feeling sorry for Sun Lei who couldn't come. I broke out in a cold sweat.
