"Order the tanks and artillery battalions to concentrate all their firepower, regardless of the artillery shells, and aim at the mountains in advance for a violent bombardment!"
Alexander said, frowning, and waved towards the location of the artillery camp.
After receiving the order, the artillery battalion immediately adjusted the position of the muzzle, and heavy artillery shells were piled on the ground.
Even the US tanks raised their muzzles and aimed murderously at positions above the mountainside of Xiaogaoling.
"Sir, this is the location where the troops we just went up the mountain to reconnoiter and the volunteers fought. Please take a look."
A US military officer handed over a marked combat map and whispered.
"Okay, immediately send the order to the artillery battalion, let them use this battle position as a line, aim at the top of Xiaogaoling to carry out a covering and extending artillery strike!"
The commander of the US Army, Alexander, took over the map with great joy and immediately ordered.
After all, although the US military has never valued ammunition, the vanguard troops that broke out did not have enough artillery shells.
Now reducing the scope of bombing can not only reduce the consumption of ammunition, but also enhance the accuracy and intensity of bombing.
"Yes, sir!"
After receiving the order, the US military messenger immediately conveyed the order to the artillery camp, and each howitzer immediately raised its thick muzzle.
Each tank was also reminded by the radio and quickly adjusted its shooting position.
"Aim at 51 degrees to the northeast, fire five rounds rapidly, plus extended artillery strikes, fire!"
The commander of the US artillery battalion observed for a while, clenched his fists, and loudly ordered.
"Bang——"
The cannonball flew out of the muzzle at extremely high speed under the huge thrust, making a dull metallic friction sound.
Diffuse white smoke rose everywhere, completely covering the howitzer barrel.
"call out--"
The shells quickly pierced the sky, with bursts of noise tearing the air, and hit the mountainside of Xiaogaoling fiercely.
"No! It's an artillery bombardment from the Americans! Evacuate deep into the air-raid shelter immediately!"
Wu Qianli keenly heard the whistling sound of artillery shells, immediately abandoned the engineer shovel and ran towards the air raid shelter.
"yes!"
The soldiers of the 7th interleaving company turned around like a conditioned reflex and evacuated to a safe position in the air raid shelter as quickly as possible.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Continuous shelling soon exploded on the mountainside, and the rising mushroom cloud completely swallowed up the dry trees.
Many large black pits suddenly appeared on the originally white snow.
Countless snow particles melted into snow water under the high temperature, and then evaporated into water vapor, making a sizzling sound.
"Damn it, this American devil really thinks highly of me and launched a bombing campaign that was worth an artillery battalion!"
Yu Congrong estimated the sound of the explosion outside the cave, frowned and cursed outside.
"Brother, luckily you had the foresight to build the air-raid shelter early. These American devils probably just stared."
"And their bombing accuracy wasn't very good either. It must have been a million miles off."
Wu Wanli patted his chest gently, breathed a long sigh of relief, and said with slight emotion.
"Silly boy, you think of the American devils too simply. How can they be as shabby as our artillery fire? They are not finished yet."
Wu Qianli smiled bitterly and rubbed Wu Wanli's head. Thinking of the horror of the battle in Shangganling, he couldn't help but feel his heart tremble.
You must know that the amount of explosives dropped by the US military to Shangganling was more than that consumed in the entire World War II.
Even the rocks and altitude on the top of the mountain were flattened by several meters.
Sure enough, after a while, American artillery fire quickly approached their position and soon landed near them.
"Boom!"
A huge caliber artillery shell hit the entrance of the air raid shelter.
The huge fire made everyone unable to open their eyes, and the deafening explosion made the comrades feel a tinnitus in their heads.
"Cough cough cough cough..."
Wu Qianli was choked and coughed repeatedly. He ignored the billowing smoke and directly covered his mouth and nose, taking a few steps forward to observe the situation at the entrance of the cave.
Several load-bearing timbers supporting the entrance of the hole were seen, like a hornet's nest, covered in shrapnel.
Large chunks of earth and rocks rolled down, but they only partially buried the corners of the cave entrance, so there was no serious problem.
"Huh - it's so dangerous. If this shell is getting closer, we might be trapped."
Mei Sheng, who was running over with an engineering shovel, breathed a sigh of relief when he saw this.
Just now, he and Wu Qianli thought of going together, and came directly with a dozen comrades from the 7th Interpenetrating Company, because they were afraid of the collapse of the cave entrance.
It is uncertain whether their cave is strong or not. Once the entrance is blocked, all comrades will face the risk of death from lack of oxygen.
"Oh - brother, it would be great if we could find a stronger cave."
Wu Wanli patted the falling stone on his shoulder and said with a little worry.
"We have no time..."
Wu Qianli's face became more solemn as he listened to the sound of artillery fire that gradually stopped, and he immediately waved to the soldiers of the 7th Interleaving Company behind him.
The soldiers of the seventh interleaved company picked up their guns and quickly filed out of the hole.
"Yu Congrong, haven't you been clamoring for a fight these past two days?"
"Now I'll leave the southern defense line to you. Mei Sheng and Wu Wanli will follow, and I'll keep an eye on the American devils until dark!"
Wu Qianli wiped the muzzle of the sniper rifle in his hand with the dry corner of his clothes and shouted loudly to Yu Congrong.
"Don't worry, company commander. If these American devils want to kill us, they can only do it sideways!"
Yu Congrong looked at the position at the foot of the mountain, with a fierce look in his eyes.
Wu Wanli nodded excitedly when he heard that he could legitimately participate in the front-line battle.
"Lei Gong, take the artillery platoon and build the artillery positions. Remember to spread them out. In times of crisis, you can freely attack valuable targets."
Wu Qianli held his chin and thought for a few seconds, then decided to hand over some of his autonomy to Lei Gong and let him control it freely.
After all, in a defensive battle of this scale, he had to participate in the front line of the battle, and he didn't have much energy to distract himself from directing the movement of artillery fire.
"Yes! The American devils are so happy with their bombings, it's time to let them have a taste of our artillery shells!"
Lei Gong patted the dust off his military cap on his head and said angrily.
"Company Commander, have you forgotten the comrades of our reconnaissance platoon?"
"The other teams in the company have received the mission, what are we doing?"
Pinghe was a little confused and looked at Wu Qianli and asked.
"I didn't forget, let the comrades of the reconnaissance platoon get ready, let's take a risk!"
As Wu Qianli spoke, he unfolded the slightly rough combat map in his hand and stared directly at the location at the foot of the mountain.
"Company Commander, are you planning to lead the reconnaissance platoon to blow up the heavy firepower of the American soldiers?"
Mei Sheng followed Wu Qianli's line of sight and was suddenly startled, and asked quickly.
"That's right! Being passively beaten and passively defensive has never been the style of our seventh interleaved company."
"We still have a chance before they are completely assembled."
"When there are really several regiments of troops below, there will be nothing we can do..."
Wu Qianli clenched his fists, a trace of determination appeared in his eyes.
"Company Commander, we are currently short of troops and cannot figure out the movements of all the American troops."
"Once their offensive troops return in time, you and your comrades in the reconnaissance platoon will be trapped directly."
Mei Sheng sighed worriedly and gave Wu Qianli his final advice.
"Don't worry, the entire army group we advanced against the American devils was not surrounded at the beginning. This small amount of troops is nothing now."
"The situation is urgent, there is no time to think about it, carry out the task immediately!"
Wu Qianli had no patience to care about the concerns of his comrades anymore, so he had to give the order directly.
"yes!"
Everyone looked at Wu Qianli's serious expression and recalled his countless previous adventures, and immediately nodded firmly.
Under the last ray of the setting sun, Yu Congrong led the soldiers of the fire platoon to the defensive ambush site.
Thanks to the five thousand miles of devilish training and experience in war, the seventh interleaving company was almost twice as fast as the US military and quickly arrived at the defense line.
"Set up all the firepower points for me, don't be careless."
"This time the American devils attacked with the determination to find a way out, which is different from the past!"
Yu Congrong held a Camel cigarette in his left hand and held a Thompson submachine gun in his right hand, quickly patrolling the defensive position.
After hearing this, the originally arrogant fire platoon soldiers put down their coquettish hearts and prepared carefully.
However, only a few minutes later, the leading troops of the US military appeared vaguely.
"His grandma's, so fast..."
Yu Congrong broke out in a cold sweat and quickly put out the cigarette in his hand for fear of being discovered by the US military.
It turned out that the US military had already sent troops to the mountain as early as the artillery fire extended upward.
"Don't even shoot. Don't alert the American devils at this time."
Yu Congrong whispered to the comrades around him while making a fighting gesture.
Fire platoon soldier Tieniu carefully retracted the muzzle of his gun and hid the heavy machine gun in the shadow of the small snowdrift.
Other comrades also held their breaths and stared at the American troops in the distance.
The U.S. scouts took a closer look and found no movement. The U.S. troops from the next battalion immediately followed up vigilantly.
Yu Congrong briefly estimated the strength and firepower of the US military, his face turned dark, and he had no choice but to turn his head and look at Lei Gong's artillery position.
"Platoon commander, Lei Gong just sent someone over to ventilate the place."
"They said their guns have been aimed at a position about 200 meters in front of us, and they will fire as soon as the American devils get close!"
Fire Platoon Tieniu gently pulled the gun bolt and whispered to Yu Congrong.
"Okay! Let comrades stay calm and keep the American devils close before attacking."
Yu Congrong lowered his hands slightly and said in a deep voice.
In the distance, Alexander himself pressed up with more than one battalion of troops.
Under his instruction, U.S. soldiers shot and bombed all suspicious targets very arrogantly.
"嘘嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚..."
The gunshots that came from time to time stimulated the brain nerves of Yu Congrong and others.
Even if a lot of bullets passed through their bodies, no one was afraid.
"boom!"
"puff--"
A bullet flew quickly and hit the arm of a fire platoon soldier, causing blood to trickle down instantly.
The heartbreaking pain from the gunshot wound on his arm made him sweat heavily on his forehead, and even his breathing became much heavier.
However, the soldier did not scream out because of the pain. He just gritted his teeth and forced his body not to move.
"His grandma's American devil, I will beat you into a sieve later!"
Yu Congrong looked at the soldier's painful expression and cursed in his heart with his heart pounding.
Seeing that the place seemed safe, Alexander, the commander of the American Army in the distance, immediately waved his hand and asked the American soldiers to continue moving forward.
Due to the terrain here, the U.S. military was heading up a steep slope from bottom to top, making movement very inconvenient.
And because the terrain is not open enough, only about one company of American soldiers can be accommodated at one time.
The American soldiers at the front carefully raised their guns, fearing that they would become the first to die.
Five hundred meters, four hundred meters, three hundred meters
The leading troops of the US military were getting closer and closer to the position, and everyone felt a suffocating sense of oppression.
Yu Congrong stared at the American soldiers with hatred in his eyes and wiped the sweat on his hands with his clothes, for fear of wiping his gun early and causing a misfire.
Soon, the U.S. soldiers came within 200 meters of the firing range of the fire platoon soldiers.
The leading US military officer raised his binoculars and happened to observe the bright red blood spurting from the arm of the wounded man just now.
"Oh——shit! There may be a volunteer army ambushing here, everyone hurry up..."
"嘘嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚嘚..."
The US military officer had just pulled out his pistol and was about to give a warning.
However, Yu Congrong's bullet struck him in the abdomen, and his voice stopped abruptly.
"Hit me hard! Defeat these American devils!"
Yu Congrong roared loudly while firing with the Thompson submachine gun in his hand.
"Da da da da da da da..."
The soldiers in the fire platoon, who had been prepared for a long time, immediately poured out the firepower in their hands.
The flickering gun flames turned into murderous scythes, cutting down the American troops row by row.
After paying the price of dozens of corpses, the U.S. military immediately fell to the ground to avoid the intensive bullets.
"Fuck you! These idiots! Concentrate your rockets to suppress these volunteers and make those idiots withdraw!"
Alexander, the commander of the American Army, gritted his teeth and roared quite angrily.
The U.S. soldiers in the rear raised their bazookas and quickly fired rockets at the positions of Yu Congrong and others.
Many firepower points were suppressed by the US military's rockets and were temporarily silenced.
The American soldiers lying on the ground quickly got up and fled towards the rear.
"call out--"
"call out--"
However, at this time, a small black spot with the sound of breaking wind in the sky was rapidly approaching their position.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!"
The American soldiers who had just stood up were instantly killed by dozens more shell fragments.
The American troops who rushed out of the sea of fire in panic were left with less than half of their strength.
"Fcuk you! I'm going to crush all these volunteers and kill them all!"
Alexander shouted in distress when he saw so many corpses abandoned in just a few minutes.
"Sir... something is wrong!"
However, at this time, a US military non-commissioned officer staggered over and handed the radio to Alexander's ear.
Alexander grabbed the radio uneasily and listened. The sound of gunshots coming from the phone suddenly changed his face.
"Oh my god! What happened to our station!"
Alexander's fingers that clenched the phone were slightly white from exerting too much force, and he asked with a little fear.
"Sir! Oh no, our position was attacked by volunteers. Now..."
"Bang! Dudududu..."
With a sharp gunshot, the voice on the other end of the phone suddenly stopped, leaving only the rapid sound of hanging up.
