Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 53 Three Barricades
"That's right, that's right, why didn't I remember it. Sun Lei, you're so smart, you're so smart that I, as an instructor, can't help myself."

Wang Wenju, the instructor of the third company of the Volunteer Army, after listening to the method Sun Lei came up with, nodded with satisfaction and praised without hesitation.

After praising Sun Lei, Wang Wenju looked at the company commander Zhao Yifa, who was standing aside with a serious expression on his cheek, and asked in a discussing tone: "Old Zhao, I think Sun Lei's attention is good, what do you think?" How about it?"

After sighing lightly, Zhao Yifa, the company commander with a serious face, nodded slightly, and replied with a little helplessness: "What else can I do, the time is tight and the task is heavy, and right now I can only use the idea that this kid Sun Lei came up with." Try it out."

So, the two of them called the messenger to the front, and asked Sun Lei to repeat what he said just now, and conveyed it to the soldiers of the whole company.

Seeing that the method he came up with was adopted, Sun Lei said goodbye to company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju, and went back to work on the slope section where his squad was.

It took less than a minute to walk to the slope section that their class was in charge of. Sun Mancang, who appeared out of nowhere, walked up to Sun Lei and gave a thumbs up, saying with great admiration: "Okay! , Sun Lei, you are worthy of being a big celebrity in front of our company commander and instructors, you can speak well, and the people from our old Sun's family are awesome.

"In the past ten minutes, the landmines were planted in the snow covered road instead of digging down on the hard road surface to place mines, and the stones were moved from both sides. Rolling stones down the hillside, instead of transporting trees, they cut down trees from the hillsides on both sides and pushed them down."

Faced with Sun Mancang's praise for his flattery, Sun Lei didn't feel cold. What he cared about most was that Sun Mancang hurriedly used his unique skill, which was that he could throw a grenade more than 100 meters away, and also The skill of being able to hit the target was taught to him.

Without further ado, Sun Lei went straight to the point and said: "Sun Mancang, don't just say these beautiful words, you old boy, we have agreed in advance. I will help you reduce the workload, so you can throw yourself a grenade Pass on your unique skills to me, now it's time for you to fulfill your promise."

Sun Mancang, who was notorious for cheating among the soldiers, would have turned his back on him long ago in front of others, but he would not dare to do so in front of Sun Lei.

Because he knew in his heart that Sun Lei was definitely not an ordinary person. Since he was able to make the company commander and instructor change their minds, then it was entirely possible for him to change their minds again. Naturally, he couldn't afford to offend them.

Sun Mancang, who was standing aside with a smiling face, said with some embarrassment: "Brother Sun Lei, you also know that the skill of throwing a grenade cannot be learned in a day or two. You ask me to teach you right now, I'm afraid I can't do this."

After saying this, he suddenly changed the subject and continued in a discussing tone: "However, I can give you a rehearsal now. You have watched it carefully, so let's warm up first. When we are on the battlefield, we will The two of you get closer, and it won't be too late for me to teach you how to throw a grenade, brother Sun Lei, do you think this is good?"

In Sun Lei's view at this time, what Sun Mancang said just now is indeed reasonable, and it is really unrealistic to teach him the unique rejection of throwing grenades right now, so it is better to warm up and learn and observe. it is good.

After thinking about this, Sun Lei nodded slightly, and in a somewhat helpless tone, agreed: "Okay, if that's the case, then do as you said, you throw one first and let me have a good look at it." See it too."

After hearing Sun Lei's words of promise, Sun Mancang, who was still a little nervous just now, was afraid that Sun Lei would not agree to him, so he quickly found a fist-sized stone from the side, threw it casually in front of Sun Lei, and " "Whistling" and flew out.

When the fist-sized stone was thrown and fell to the ground, as far as Sun Lei could see, it was at least 100 meters away from them, and Sun Mancang's movements before and after throwing the stone were all captured by his keen eyes. The eyes can see clearly and clearly, and it can be regarded as learning some superficial skills.

Of course, in Sun Lei's view at this time, in addition to learning the skill of throwing grenades from Sun Mancang is very important, there is another more important thing right now that prevents him from slacking off in the slightest.

That is to be sure to set up roadblocks on the 50-meter slope road assigned by their first class before midnight this evening.

So, after Sun Lei finished reading, he said goodbye to Sun Mancang, and went to work on the road section he had assigned.

Due to the temporary change of the method of setting up roadblocks, not only did Sun Mancang, who was always stealing and cheating, feel that he was amnesty, but also made the soldiers of the third company and the whole company breathe a sigh of relief.

The soldiers of the entire third company were all mobilized, and changed to squads as units. First, they went to the hillsides tens of meters high on both sides of the road, rolled down large stones, and covered the road more than 200 meters long.

Immediately afterwards, I went to the hillsides on both sides, cut down dozens of bowl-sized trees, and rolled down from the hillside, stretching across the 20-meter-wide road, like single-plank bridges built on streams. of.

In the end, the soldiers of the third company took the five boxes of landmines they brought, a total of about one hundred mines, and placed them all in the snow under the rocks.

After the three-layer roadblocks were set up, it was already around 11:30 at night, which was half an hour earlier than the order given to them by the regiment headquarters.

Although the roadblock made of stones, tree trunks, and mines has been completed, many soldiers still think that the roadblock they made is too simple.

Once the battle of Guitoudong starts at that time, will the soldiers of the Korean army who retreated here after being defeated in the battle easily remove the stones and tree trunks?

What worries the soldiers the most is that their method of planting mines is too simple, and it is easy to be discovered by engineers in the Korean army. When the time comes, the mines they planted will be removed one by one They were dug out from the snow that covered the road.

Then they worked for nearly four hours before, not only was it a waste of work, but also the more than 100 landmines seized at the risk of their lives were wasted in vain, and they were returned to the hands of the Korean army. .

Fortunately, Zhao Yifa, the company commander of the third company, and Wang Wenju, the instructor, had heard about Sun Lei's new plan of setting up roadblocks. After careful analysis, they both believed that this method was feasible, and the soldiers' worries were unnecessary. of.
