Chapter 231: The Bravery of Comrades on the Battlefield
a week ago.
The troops were divided into several teams and went up the mountain from different directions, breaking the enemy's ambush circles one by one.
Zhao Yongcheng led the company of new recruits up the mountain from the flank. Logically, the firepower here should not be too strong, but they were ambushed by the enemy as soon as they waded across the river.
They all knew that it was easy to set up an ambush here, but there was no way to retreat. They had to move forward and destroy the enemy's forces to prevent them from turning around to support the main force.
"There is an ambush! Lie down quickly! Disperse! Don't stay together!" Zhao Yongcheng shouted. The people in the company quickly lay down after hearing the order, but some of them were still in the river. They didn't have time to fight back and were hit by bullets.
The fighters on both sides were engaged in a fierce battle.
The roar of machine guns mixed with the whizzing of bullets.
Between the positions of both sides, machine guns poured down like heavy rain, forming a dense firepower network.
Soldiers kept falling down, but they were soon replaced and held the machine gun positions.
The bullet hit his body, instantly penetrating his clothes and flesh, blood splattered, a bloody mist appeared in front of his eyes, and then he fell to the ground and rolled in pain, the blood dyed the ground beneath him red. The scene was extremely tragic.
The enemy occupied the high ground and fired machine guns from it, and the recruit company was beaten without any chance of fighting back.
Zhang Ergou spat out the mud in his mouth, "Pah, damn it, if they continue to sweep us, we won't be able to hurt them at all even if we fight to the death..."
"Captain, what should we do? The enemy's artillery fire is too fierce. We must think of a solution."
"Find something to divert the attention of the opposite machine gun." Zhao Yongcheng looked around, found a stick, took off his hat, used the hat to cover his military cap, and held the submachine gun with one hand.
The situation was critical and this was the only solution he could think of.
"Captain, I'm coming."
"No, a new recruit doesn't have enough experience."
It’s not that he looks down on the new recruits. Zhang Ergou just turned 20 this year and has been in the army for less than a year. He cannot let the new recruits take risks. This is his responsibility as the company commander.
Zhang Ergou, "Captain, don't argue with me about this. My nickname in the village was "Dog Legs". I run fast. You are the captain, and our company still needs your command."
Ergou snatched the stick and submachine gun from his hands, and ran away crouching behind rocks and bushes.
Dense bullets kept falling on the top of the head and sides of the body.
As long as they showed their heads, they would be hit by the enemy's bullets. Zhang Ergou held up a stick and kept making noise over there. A military cap was riddled with bullets.
He then took off his military cap and held it up, thus attracting most of the enemy's fire.
And so on, the hats were knocked off.
"Fight!" Zhao Yongcheng shouted and threw a grenade over.
He led the company to fight back fiercely, shooting at the enemy crazily.
The enemy's machine gun also kept firing at this side. The machine gunner was accidentally shot and fell down, and the next one quickly took over.
Zhang Ergou raised his submachine gun and fired, constantly approaching the enemy. After running out of bullets, he dropped the machine gun.
He took out a few grenades, rushed forward quickly and threw them at the enemy's firing point, "bang! -" he destroyed one of the enemy's heavy firepower machine guns.
Because he did not pay attention to covering himself, his body was completely exposed to the enemy's fire and unfortunately he was shot into a sieve.
His body trembled violently, and then he fell weakly into a pool of blood. Blood gushed out from the corners of his mouth, staining his clothes and the ground beneath him red.
His eyes were wide open, staring at the ground beneath him. Because of the severe pain, his hands unconsciously clenched into fists, grabbing a handful of soil in his hands.
He moved his mouth and whispered, "Mom, I am not ashamed of myself. I am unfilial and let you send me off when I am young. I will still be your son in the next life..."
"Two dogs! Two dogs!"
"Dog!"
"Dog! Don't sleep..."
"what!"
His comrades shouted his name desperately.
He also couldn't bear to leave his comrades and wanted to get up and fight alongside them, but he had no strength and the voices in his ears were becoming increasingly blurred...
Zhao Yongcheng raised the rocket launcher to eliminate the enemy's firing point. When he was about to fire the second one, the enemy's fire suddenly swept over.
Two bullets hit his arm and shoulder respectively. His tall body trembled violently. He gritted his teeth and fired the second bullet, which hit the opponent's artillery fire point accurately.
The main force of the enemy's fierce artillery fire was completely destroyed, leaving only some scattered firepower.
The war situation turned around, and the enemy was suppressed by the recruit company and had no power to fight back.
Suddenly, there was the sound of a propeller overhead. It was an enemy fighter plane.
Zhao Yongcheng shouted, "Hide quickly! Lie down!"
The enemy's artillery fire swept in like a storm, enveloping the entire battlefield in a sea of fire.
The shells whizzed through the sky and landed on our positions with destructive force, causing violent explosions and thick smoke.
Each shelling seemed to tear the earth apart. The huge shock wave caused the surrounding trees to shake, and rubble and soil to splash everywhere, forming a chaotic battlefield.
A bomb fell behind Zhao Yongcheng, and he noticed it and quickly rushed forward.
Wait until the enemy fighters leave.
The comrades lying on the ground got up and shouted to Zhao Yongcheng, "Company Commander! Company Commander!"
The person on the ground moved, shook off the mud on his body, and struggled to get up.
"The company commander is still alive! That's great!"
They quickly ran over and helped the man up.
……
Lu Zhengxiao led his men to attack from the opposite side, repelling the enemy's main force and forcing them to the main peak.
A hidden cave became the last bastion for the enemy to hide.
The entrance to the cave was fortified with bags of Chinese rice used as sandbags.
They used the rations we saved to block our bullets, hid behind our rice and shot our comrades with bullets. This is extremely shameless.
The comrades became furious when they saw this.
Lu Zhengxiao led several comrades to fire wildly at the cave entrance with submachine guns.
Several comrades rushed forward with explosives and tried to blow them to death.
The enemy's artillery fire became more and more intense, all concentrated towards them. Bullets flew past their bodies, leaving streaks of blood, or hit their bodies, and the blood flowed profusely, staining their uniforms red.
Unfortunately, the artillery fire was too fierce and even though they paid the price of their lives, they still failed to be killed.
A comrade next to Lu Zhengxiao wanted to rush forward with artillery fire.
His name is Xu Shizhao, a young comrade. His child is less than one year old, so he cannot go.
Lu Zhengxiao snatched the gunpowder bag from his hand and rushed out.
The comrades fired machine guns and shouted, "Commander! Commander!"
"Quick! Cover fire."
Dense bullets grazed his body and shot into his shoulders and arms, but he seemed not to feel the pain and tightly grasped the explosive pack in his hand.
Under the cover of artillery fire from all the comrades, they finally approached the entrance of the cave, dived forward, and threw the explosive pack at the enemy.
"Boom!" With a loud bang, the cave was torn apart by the huge explosion force, and smoke and rubble flew everywhere.
"Ah!" The enemy's wails, screams and explosions intertwined together, forming a tragic and heroic picture.
Lu Zhengxiao's figure also disappeared in the red smoke.
"Captain! Captain!——"
……
He Wenbin volunteered to be the captain of the infiltration company and infiltrate the enemy's rear to fight. The enemy was very cunning and knew how to lay mines.
If you accidentally pass through a minefield, you will be blown to pieces. He led his company to avoid the minefields by combining the actual situation with the war reports in newspapers and on television in his "dreams".
Just when he was about to get behind the enemy, he ordered his comrades to step back and he went ahead first.
"Everyone, step back! I'll go first! If I unfortunately step on a minefield, you guys line up and continue forward along the path I took. Don't gather together, just move through quickly."
Every step was taken cautiously, and every step was a brush with death.
Suddenly, when passing through the bushes, his body accidentally touched the bushes, pulling the imperceptible white line, and a loud noise broke the silence, "Bang!"
The blast threw him high into the air, and then he fell heavily to the ground.
In the chaos of the explosion, he lost his balance and slid toward the edge of the cliff.
Finally, he fell into a bottomless cliff and disappeared from the sight of his comrades.
"Company Commander! Company Commander!" The comrades lay on the edge of the cliff trying to find him. Looking down from the cliff that was dozens of meters high, they could only see the rushing river and nothing else.
"Hurry! This explosion has alerted the enemy. We can't give them a chance to catch their breath, or the company commander will have died in vain."
"Have a safe journey, Captain. We will certainly kill a few more and avenge you."
The comrades had no time to grieve or cry, so they wiped away their tears and continued to move forward.
He quickly got behind the enemy and fired madly at his back with his machine gun. "Ahhhh!!!"
“Da da da!!!——”
The sound of rapid firing from a submachine gun, each bullet was like a swarm of angry bees, madly rushing towards the enemy.
“Bang, bang, bang!!!—”
The sound of heavy machine gun fire was like the roar of a giant beast, and each shot was accompanied by a strong vibration, as if the whole mountain was shaking.
Some comrades took out grenades, bit them open with their mouths, and threw them at them.
"You ungrateful bastards! Go to hell!"
"boom!"
Amid the dense sound of bullets, there were also sounds of explosions.
