Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 195 Preemptive Strike
Originally stationed in the military fortress of Xiajieyu, the Korean soldiers of that battalion were going to take dozens of military trucks to the hillside five kilometers away on the south side. The offensive had already been waiting in trenches and air-raid shelters for less than 200 soldiers. People's sharp knives in succession to the volunteer army.

However, before departure, the battalion commander of the Han army submitted this application to Colonel Madipu, the head of the US military regiment, but was ruthlessly rejected. The distance to the hillside area kilometers away is very short. There is no need to take military trucks or other transportation roads, and you can just march directly on foot. Doing so saves time and effort.

In fact, the reason why Colonel Madipu, the head of the US military regiment, really rejected the Korean battalion commander Lee Doo-hyun deep in his heart was that the military vehicles left in Xiajieyu were all provided by the US military. Yes, the soldiers of the Korean army can only stand aside. If it is not in a particularly urgent situation, they are not qualified to use these military vehicles provided by the US military.

What's more, after leaving the military fortress of Xiajieyuli and traveling southward for less than two kilometers, there are already undulating hillsides and hills, and military vehicles cannot continue to drive southward at all, they can only march It's just a burden to fight, and marching in vehicles is not as easy as walking on foot.

The most important point is that during the previous month of fighting, countless military vehicles of all kinds were lost from the hands of the Korean army. Most of the military vehicles that were not destroyed fell into the southward movement. In the hands of the attacking Chinese People's Volunteers, this is a situation that the US military does not want to see happen again. Naturally, the Korean army is not allowed to use military vehicles at will when fighting a small-scale battle with less than 200 people.

Faced with the ruthless rejection of Colonel Madipu, the commander of the US Army, the Korean Battalion Commander Lee Doo-hyun felt that he would be under the control of others, so he had no choice but to take the Korean soldiers of his battalion out of Xiajieyu after having breakfast From the south gate of the fortress, walk towards the hillside five kilometers to the south.

Although, in the area of ​​Onjeong and Qingchuan River more than a month ago, a battalion of well-equipped Korean troops led by Lee Doo-hyun suddenly had an encounter with the raiding Chinese People's Volunteers, which eventually led to his A battalion of Korean troops was almost wiped out.

Seriously injured, he crossed the snow-covered Qingchuan River and arrived at the rear hospital of the U.S. Army with the help of the military staff officer Jin Shengji, which saved his life.If not, he would have died on the battlefield long ago.

It can be said that when Lee Doo-hyun faced the Chinese People's Volunteers, he had lingering fears. At the same time, deep in his heart, he still hoped to make up for the big loss he had suffered before.

At this time, he felt that the South Korean army that he was leading this battalion had a strength of more than a thousand people, compared with the small Chinese Volunteer Army with less than 200 people on the hillside five kilometers away from the south. More than one huge advantage.

In addition, although Colonel Madip, the head of the US military regiment, did not agree to allow them to ride in military vehicles this time, he allocated them a lot of sophisticated American weapons and equipment, and generously gave them as many as ten mortars alone. , more than five hundred shells.In addition, there are [-] light and [-] heavy machine guns each.

Having obtained so many heavy weapons, Lee Doo-hyun, the battalion commander of the Han Army, felt that he was superior to the 200-strong Chinese Volunteer Army in terms of strength, personnel, and weapons and equipment.

However, what Major Lee Doo-hyun, the battalion commander of the Korean army, never imagined was that he led the Korean troops of this battalion just out of the south gate of the military fortress in Xiajieyu, and marched on foot for about half an hour. It was discovered by the sharp knives of the Chinese Volunteers on the hillside.

At this time, it was already 09:30 in the morning. For the soldiers in the first row of the five squads who were in charge of security tasks in the trenches, they only needed to survive another half an hour before they could talk to the soldiers in the second row. The task of handing over security has been carried out.

Sun Lei, the leader of the platoon leader of the sharp knife company who was in charge of guarding the north of the hillside, picked up the binoculars and observed for a few seconds, and found that there was an enemy situation about two kilometers north of the hillside where they were.

Since what he saw through the binoculars was not particularly clear, Sun Lei was not too sure at the time, what kind of troops the enemy was coming towards the direction of their hillside, how many troops there were in total, and what was the condition of their weapons and equipment? Instead of reporting the matter to company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju like a frightened bird, he continued to stay where he was and observe.

After continuing to observe for about 5 minutes, Sun Lei got a general understanding of the situation through the telescope, and then quickly ordered the soldiers in the row of five squads who followed him in charge of the security mission to be more vigilant and do their best. Ready to fight anytime.

Immediately afterwards, Sun Lei rushed to the front of the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju, and reported in a slightly nervous tone: "Company commander, instructor, I just found it on the north side of our hillside, less than two kilometers away. Enemy situation.

"I made a preliminary judgment on the enemy's situation through my observation. Most of the enemies who attacked our hillside this time were Korean soldiers. According to my visual estimation, the number of troops is about 1000. Moreover, in Among the weapons and equipment they are equipped with, there is not only one American rifle in each soldier's hand, but also dozens of machine guns and many mortars."

After listening to Sun Lei's report, the instructor Wang Wenju pondered for a while, then murmured to himself in confusion: "Does this Korean army approaching our hillside know of our existence?" , did they pass by here unintentionally, or did they come out of the Xiajieyu-ri military fortress in order to launch an attack on us?"

After pondering for a moment, the company commander Zhao Yifa who was standing aside said firmly, "Instructor, Comrade Zhao, why are you thinking so much? Don't care where this Korean army came from. As long as they approach us , it will pose a very big threat to us.

"In my opinion, we have room here to wait for them to find out and be beaten passively. It is better for us to take the initiative to attack and catch them by surprise. Anyway, we now have trenches and air-raid shelters, and we are not afraid of their heavy weapons."
