The people of the Seventh Company did not set off in a hurry.
At Wu Wanli's request, they brought enough weapons, equipment and various supplies, put on all the warm clothes of the ugly army, and set off quickly.
A slender wooden cart, filled with various things, was pushed by Wu Wanli and led the way at the front. He is infinitely powerful and can do things that others cannot.
A snowstorm came unexpectedly.
Strong winds can blow people away.
Heavy snow can bury people.
Wu Wanli took the lead to block the oncoming wind and snow.
He is not afraid of wind and snow.
He can see the path clearly under his feet.
He was like a wall, blocking everything for the warriors behind.
"Wanli, are you tired?" Wu Qianli shouted from time to time. He couldn't help but care about Wu Wanli.
"Brother, I'm not tired. Stop talking and remember to walk on the path I've walked on. There are snow pits nearby, so everyone should be careful." Wu Wanli shouted.
"I know, Wanli, you have to be careful too!"
With a plop, a soldier behind fell into the snow pit.
The people around him hurriedly pulled him up.
From Xiajieyuli to Shuimen Bridge, it is about 24 kilometers.
The Seventh Company and the others had to go further by taking a small road, but they wanted to get ahead of the Ugly Army's 1st Marine Division and blow up the Watergate Bridge.
They need to keep moving forward, one step at a time.
Fortunately, with Wu Wanli leading the way, he didn't need to look at the frozen compass. He could clearly grasp the direction of Watergate Bridge and avoid detours as much as possible.
The ugly army marched very slowly, and troops were constantly blocking it along the way.
...
I don’t know how much time passed.
Wu Wanli suddenly stopped.
He sensed someone in front of him.
"Wanli, what's wrong?" Wu Qianli asked. He is behind Wu Wanli.
"Brother, there is someone in front of me. I think he is one of ours." Wu Wanli said. He knew that the people in front of him were from the Ninth Company, and it was Tan Zi who was leading the team.
"Our people?" Wu Qianli took out the osprey whistle and was about to blow it when he heard a whistle sound in front of him.
"Didi..."
"Didi..." Wu Qianli whistled hurriedly.
Through the whistle, they confirmed that each other was the right person.
"Wan Li, our people are indeed in front. It's the old company commander and his friends in front. Come on, hurry up." Wu Qianli said happily.
In a mountain col.
There are quite a few white tents.
Everyone in the Ninth Company was resting inside.
Their white tents were all bought by Wu Wanli.
Last time the Ninth Company and the Seventh Company fought together in Xingxingli, Wu Wanli got a lot of supplies and gave them to the Ninth Company.
The people of the Ninth Company and the Seventh Company were the same. Their warm clothes, duck down sleeping bags, etc. all belonged to the Chou Army.
There are also a lot of weapons, equipment and medicines.
The Ninth Company hasn't started blowing up the bridge yet.
They were waiting for dark.
The men of the Seventh Company received the task of blowing up the bridge during the day.
They arrived in time, before it got dark.
In the movie, when the Seventh Company arrived, the Ninth Company had already begun to blow up the bridge.
They were suppressed by the Ugly Army's firepower and could not retreat.
The Seventh Company hurriedly went to the rescue, and then the wounded from the Ninth Company were picked up.
The Seventh Company had encountered sudden battles during previous marches, which all showed the suddenness and unpredictability of battles.
In the tent.
"Old company commander, are you also on a mission to blow up the bridge?" Wu Qianli asked.
"That's right, Qianli, I also guessed that the higher-ups will send you to come here." Tan Ziwei said happily. He was very happy to see Wu Qianli and other brothers from the Seventh Company again, because he saw that many people were still alive.
"Old company commander, is this bridge easy to explode?" Wu Qianli asked.
"It's not easy to explode. The Shuimen Bridge is less than ten meters long and five meters wide. The bridge deck and foundation are very solid, and the firepower on the bridge is very strong. The south and north of the bridge are heavily defended, making it difficult to get up." Tan Ziwei said . They only had mortars and bazookas, neither of which could destroy the bridge. You can only let people hold the explosive pack and rush to the bridge.
"Old company commander, we have anti-aircraft guns. As long as we find a high ground, let Wan Li stand down and bombard the Shuimen Bridge, it will definitely collapse." Wu Qianli said. He didn't find it difficult to blow up the bridge.
In the movie, after several battles between the Seventh Company and the Ninth Company, the number of personnel was reduced sharply. There are very few weapons and ammunition, and there is a lack of heavy firepower weapons, so it is difficult to blow up the bridge.
It's different now, Wu Wanli brought anti-aircraft guns.
This cannon alone can easily destroy the Water Gate Bridge.
In addition, Wu Wanli's heavy grenade can also blow up the Watergate Bridge. Therefore, in Wu Qianli's opinion, it is not difficult to blow up the bridge.
"There are anti-aircraft guns that can indeed blow up the bridge. Let's try it at night?" Tan Ziwei nodded. He had seen Wu Wanli's power in controlling anti-aircraft guns, which was very impressive.
"Okay." Wu Qianli nodded, looked at Wu Wanli and asked, "Wanli, is it okay to blow up the bridge at night?"
"No problem. Brother, actually blowing up the bridge is a piece of cake. The hard part is resisting the attack of the ugly army." Wu Wanli said. He was a little worried about the subsequent Ugly Army attack.
In the movie, blowing up a bridge is the hardest thing to do.
It exploded three times, costing many lives, and succeeded three times, but it was all repaired.
Now, with Wu Wanli here, there is no difficulty in blowing up the bridge, nor is it easy to repair the bridge.
But once the Watergate Bridge is destroyed, they will face a crazy counterattack by the Ugly Army's First Marine Division and reinforcements. This is the problem.
"Resist the attack?" Wu Qianli nodded, "That's true, Brother Tan, it's not difficult for us to blow up the bridge now. But after we blow up the bridge, the ugly army will definitely attack crazily, and we need to be prepared for defense."
"Defense?" Tan Ziwei smiled. He had been worried about offense before. Because attacking requires artillery and heavy firepower weapons, which they don’t have, it’s very difficult.
As for defense, it's much easier.
Defend if they can, but if they can't, they can destroy the enemy on the move. This has entered the battle mode that their Ninth Company and Seventh Company like.
"Wan Li, blow up the bridge first. If we want to defend, we don't have to fight with the ugly army. When they attack, we can just retreat." Tan Ziwei said with a smile. There are mountains nearby. Once they retreat into the mountains, there will definitely be nothing the Ugly Army can do.
"Old company commander, what if we blow up the bridge and the ugly army repairs the bridge?" Wu Wanli asked.
"Repair the bridge? Wanli, when they repair the bridge, our troops should eat up the 1st Marine Division of the Ugly Army." Tan Ziwei said with a smile.
"That's right, as long as they can't repair the bridge within a week, their First Marine Division will definitely be eaten by us." Wu Qianli said with a smile.
At this time, neither Tan Ziwei nor Wu Qianli realized the strength of the Chou Army engineers. They thought it would take a month to repair the bridge, but they repaired it overnight.
This is the gap at the industrial level. You can't even imagine what other people can do easily.
"Okay, let's blow up the bridge first, and then we'll set up an ambush nearby and wait for the ugly army to attack." Wu Wanli said. He did not defend or argue with Tan Ziwei or Wu Qianli. Because it is useless, when they see the powerful bridge-building ability of the Ugly Army, they will understand some facts and some gaps.
Next.
The men of the Seventh Company and the Ninth Company moved back a lot from the temporary camp.
Then select a peak not far or close to Watergate Bridge.
Wu Wanli used his great strength to get the anti-aircraft gun up.
Wu Qianli and Tanzi led everyone and set up an ambush halfway up the mountain.
Lei Suisheng and others also set up artillery positions halfway up the mountain.
Firepower points were also set up at various commanding heights.
etc.
After everything was ready, Wu Wanli had already cooked ginseng soup for everyone, one bowl per person, which dispelled the coldness in everyone. Their dry food comes from the Chou Army, and they eat pretty well.
At night.
Wu Wanli looked at the Watergate Bridge of the ugly army in the distance, sneered, "bang bang bang..." and opened fire.
Watergate Bridge was bombarded by anti-aircraft guns.
Not long after, there was a "boom..." and the Watergate Bridge collapsed.
The ugly troops on the bridge were either bombed to death or thrown to death, resulting in numerous casualties.
The Ugly Army, the bald officer stationed at Watergate Bridge, and a group of leaders had just figured out the situation, but before they had time to escape, they died in the fortifications of Watergate Bridge.
In the water pump room, that special ugly soldier was very calm and did not run away, and then he died without a complete body. His extraordinary strength was not fully utilized.
The ugly troops on both sides of the Watergate Bridge were completely trapped. They kept retreating and had no idea of counterattack. Because the officers are all dead.
"Okay!" People from the Seventh and Ninth Companies couldn't help but cheer in low voices.
The first time the bridge was blown up was completed easily.
Because there are heavy firepower weapons, the soldiers do not need to risk their lives.
In the movie, the soldiers died and injured countless people in order to blow up the bridge. The scene made people cry.
They are brave, fearless people.
They are all admirable heroes.
