Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 197 Fifty Bottles of Wine
The South Korean battalion marching south from the south gate of the military fortress in Xiajieyu was only one kilometer away from the destination of their march at 09:30 in the morning.

Don't look, Lee Doo-hyun leads the Korean army in this battalion, which has more than 1000 troops. However, because there are almost [-] Korean soldiers in this battalion, they are all in one It was brought in by a strong man a week ago.

That is to say, among the Korean troops in this battalion, only about 300 are soldiers of the regular army, including the Korean soldiers of the two companies that Lee Doo-hyun had led before, who have been on the battlefield and touched their guns. In the battles in Wenjing and Qingchuanjiang two months ago, the Chinese Volunteer Army, the opponent of the encounter, was beaten to nothing.

It can be said that in terms of combat effectiveness, the Korean army led by Lee Doo-hyun with a total strength of more than 1000 troops, if it were not for the ten mortars and twenty mortars given to him by the head of the US Army, Colonel Madip He has no chance of winning against a small group of volunteers with less than 200 people on the hillside five kilometers south of Xiajieyuli.

However, now that he is blessed with such powerful American heavy weapons and equipment, Lee Doo-hyun thinks that his chances of winning are still very high, because he doesn't believe in this evil, and when he gets to the ground, let's not follow the less than 200 people on the hillside. The Xiao Gu troops of the Chinese Volunteer Army engaged in a head-on confrontation, but they used the ten mortars to bombard them indiscriminately.

In Lee Doo-hyun's view at this time, as long as the ten mortars are used to bombard for an hour or so, the vital force of the small Chinese Volunteer Army with less than 200 people can be completely wiped out, and then the charge will be launched. Definitely a surefire chance.

No, when the Korean soldiers of this battalion were still one kilometer away from the hillside, Lee Doo-hyun, the battalion commander, immediately gave an order to stop advancing. stopped.

Combat staff officer Jin Shengji anxiously ran from the front of the marching team all the way to the middle of the marching team, stood in front of the battalion commander Li Douxuan, and asked in a puzzled tone: "Your Excellency, battalion commander, what should we do?" Wasn't it good to march forward just now? Why did it stop suddenly? According to my visual inspection, we are only about one kilometer away from the high hill ahead. If we continue to march, it will be 10 miles at most. In a matter of minutes, we will be at the foot of the mountain."

Regarding the question of the combat staff officer Kim Sung-ki, Lee Doo-hyun, the battalion commander, first comforted him in a gentle tone and said: "Sung Ki-kun, don't be so anxious, this order to stop advancing is my order to the entire battalion. I issued this order, of course I have my reasons."

After saying this, Lee Doo-hyun lightly patted the shoulder of Kim Seong-ki standing in front of him twice, then changed the subject and continued: "Sung-ki-kun, what you just said is correct, if we continue If you drive forward, you can indeed reach the foot of the southern hillside after 10 minutes, but the problem is that all the people in our camp have rushed to the foot of the mountain, and we can only climb to the foot of the mountain. climb up.

"Have you ever thought that if we were suddenly attacked by a small group of Chinese Volunteers who were waiting for work on the hillside while we were climbing up the hillside, even if they had less than 200 troops, it would be very difficult for our battalion. , It will definitely cause chaos among the soldiers.

"You know, in our battalion, there are more than 700 strong men who were captured more than a week ago. Among them, many of them are not very good at shooting. Once a war starts, they will eventually suffer a lot. We are the ones to lose. If you don’t forget, a battalion of elite mechanized troops was beaten to a single blow in Wenjing and Qingchuan River areas more than a month ago, and now we must learn a lesson.”

Jin Shengji, who is more emotional when encountering things, was originally on the way here, and he was still thinking about arguing with the battalion commander Lee Doo-hyun, but after listening to what Lee Doo-hyun said , he thought it was very reasonable, and immediately, he had no power to refute.

Even so, after Jin Shengji calmed down, he still asked the battalion commander Lee Doo-hyun standing in front of him with a blank face, not without worry: "Battle commander, what you just said is indeed very meaningful. Reasonable, but the question is, what should we do now?

"You have to know that before we arrived, Colonel Madipu, the head of the US Army, sent a message, asking us to launch a mobilization against the small group of Chinese volunteer troops on the hillside ahead at ten o'clock in the morning at the latest. attack.

"It is already 09:30 in the morning, and it is only half an hour before the latest attack time set by Colonel Madipu, the head of the US military. Our headquarters can stop here, what? Don’t do it? If that’s the case, then it’s a disobedience to the military order.”

Why did the combat staff officer Jin Shengji suddenly ask, and he really stopped Lee Doo-hyun, the battalion commander. He was thinking of using mortars to bomb the hillside one kilometer away to the south.

But the problem now is that after he took a visual observation with a military telescope, the hillside about one kilometer south of them was nearly 200 meters higher than where they were. If he wanted to use mortar bombing It's really difficult.

After discovering this situation, Lee Doo-hyun took the military telescope in his hand and observed the east and west directions. What made him very frustrated was that the east and west directions were also hills less than 50 meters above the ground. That's it, there's no way to use mortars at all.

When Lee Doo-hyun was worrying, Lee Jae-seok, the reconnaissance company commander of the Korean battalion, rushed over and reported to the battalion commander Lee Doo-hyun that a large package was found one kilometer to the east of them just now.

Moreover, at first glance, it was clear that this package was used by the US military during airdrops. When they opened the large package on the ground with the Korean soldiers of the reconnaissance company, they found that there were [-] intact bottles of whiskey inside. Other than that, there is nothing else.

In order to verify the accuracy of this information, Li Doo-hyun did not dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly took the combat staff officer Kim Sung-ki, and asked the investigation company commander Li Jae-shik to lead the way, and went to the scene to check it with his own eyes.

When Lee Doo-hyun arrived at the scene of the incident, he personally checked the package that had just been opened by the U.S. military airdrop. Sure enough, there were only fifty bottles of whiskey in it, and he found nothing else. Face dumbfounded.

However, Lee Doo-hyun is very curious about this, why there is a US military airdrop package suddenly appearing in this wild place, and it contains the whiskey that US soldiers often drink but they only have eyes for? , Let him be puzzled.

In fact, what he didn't know was that the package airdropped by the U.S. military and the fifty bottles of whiskey contained in it were the result of Sun Lei, the platoon leader of the sharp knife company, after obtaining the consent of the company commander Zhao Yifa and the instructor Wang Wenju. He took people to put it in this place specially, to attract them to look for it, and then drink the fifty bottles of whiskey.
