In the winter, the Qingchuan River is frozen, and the ice surface is like a mirror. The sun shines on the ice, reflecting soft light. At seven o'clock in the morning, Liu Santang and Chen Jiushan took everyone on two snow sledges from Qingchuan River No. 5
Depart from the position and return to the Jiulian Company Station, the bridgehead on the west side of the Qingchuan River Bridge.
Qingchuan River Formation No. 5 is more than 30 kilometers away from the west side of the Qingchuan River Bridge. It takes at least six hours to cross mountains and ridges by land. Qiu Mingliang suggested to Liu Santong that he take two snow sledges to join the Jiulian Company and walk along the frozen
On the river side, you can reach the Cheongchon River Bridge in less than two hours.
Qiu Mingliang's suggestion was echoed by Chen Jiushan, Ha Dajiang, and Erzhuzi. They are all from Bingcheng and Hecheng in Northeast China. They grew up on the ice since childhood, and ski sledding was their childhood play. "
"Hey, hey, hey -" everyone shouted and started the two snow sledges, "whoosh, whoosh -" the snow sledges slid quickly on the ice.
Chen Jiushan rode a snow sledge with the soldiers from the first and third squads. Liu Santang, Lu Chen and the soldiers from the second squad rode another snow sledge. They were all young people and competitive. The two snow sledges competed on the ice.
, "Whoosh, whoosh -" Chen Jiushan, Ha Dajiang, and the second pillar were more skilled and quickly left behind the snow sledges of the second class.
The surface of the Chongchuan River was naturally frozen, with many ridges and pits. In order to compete for the lead, Chen Jiushan and Ha Dajiang rowed the snow sledges hard, but did not pay attention to the bulges in the ice in front. "Whoops..." the snow sledges rushed onto the bulges of ice.
On the ice, they instantly lost their balance and rolled over. Chen Jiushan, Ha Dajiang, Erzhu and others were thrown onto the ice, rolling and crawling in an extremely embarrassing situation.
Erzhuzi complained, "Dajiang, this is how you Bingcheng people skate. You don't look at the road and your face is bald."
"Hahaha, haha—" Liu Santang, Lu Chen, and Liang Jianghe's second squadron soldiers laughed heartily, "Whoosh—" paddling the snow sledge quickly passed in front of Chenjiu Mountain, Ha Dajiang, and Erzhu.
Lu Chen was also excited and kind, and shouted, "Hey - let's fly!" The rich baritone echoed on the ice, and the snow sledge slid quickly.
"Da da, da da -" suddenly the sound of a machine gun rang out, "whoosh, whoosh -" bullets flew over the heads of Liu Santang and Lu Chen. There was an ambush. Liang Jianghe, who was responsible for controlling the snow sledge, stabbed the ice hard with an iron drill.
On the other side, "呲——" the snow sledge braked suddenly and fell across the ice.
The snow sledge slid quickly and suddenly braked. Liu Santang and Lu Chen were not prepared and were thrown onto the ice one after another.
Liang Jianghe's move seemed clumsy, but it was actually very effective. Everyone was instantly thrown onto the ice and quickly dispersed, narrowing the target. "Everyone, please pay attention, the enemy is on the east bank of the river. Let's go to the west bank of the river." Liu Santang quickly identified the attacker.
direction, commanding everyone to quickly evacuate to the west bank.
Chen Jiushan's snow sledge and Liu Santang's snow sledge were 50 meters apart. When he saw someone attacking and shooting, he hurriedly paddled the snow sledge and turned to the river bank to join Liu Santang.
The Qingchuan River narrows in this area and is only more than 300 meters wide. The east bank is a hilly area with undulating heights. The height is generally one to two hundred meters. The trees are sparse. In winter, the leaves fall off and the trunks stand alone.
Through the telescope, Chen Jiushan saw the figures of more than twenty American soldiers swaying on the river bank.
"Deputy Liu pointed out that there are more than 20 American troops who dare to attack us. Kill them." Chen Jiushan said decisively. Ha Dajiang, Erzhu, and Liang Jianghe all agreed, "Kill them. Our platoon is not someone to be trifled with.
He actually attacked us, and he was so bold that he was so brave."
"There are more than 20 American soldiers. They are not many." Liu Santang raised his telescope and asked, "A platoon leader, are you sure we can eliminate them?"
Chen Jiushan replied confidently, "Yes, I have observed it. They don't have heavy weapons. In such a cold weather, they still dare to challenge us Northeasterners. I don't know how high the sky is."
The morale should be boosted but not let down. Liu Santang was also eager to fight and agreed with Chen Jiushan's suggestion, "Okay, everyone should be cautious and don't underestimate the enemy. You, the platoon leader, can arrange the combat missions."
Chen Jiushan immediately issued the battle deployment, "Deputy Commander Liu, I observed that more than twenty American troops were concentrated in front of us. I led the first squad and the second squad to attack frontally to attract the enemy's attention. Deputy Commander Liu, Lu Chen
He and his brothers from the second squadron will make a detour a hundred meters south and launch an attack from the enemy's side. If necessary, Lu Chen can use a grenade."
The soldiers of the D field army are good at intervening and circuitous. The tactics seem simple, but when applied on the battlefield, they are surprisingly powerful. Liu Santang, Lu Chen and the soldiers of the second squad crossed eastward. Chen Jiushan commanded the general squad. The soldiers of the second squad returned to the ice and launched an attack on the American troops on the east coast.
To attack, Ha Dajiang ran quickly on the ice mountain. From a distance of more than ten meters, he fired two shots in a row, then fell down quickly and rolled to the left quickly.
Ha Dajiang was tall but agile. He rolled and jumped on the ice in a dizzying manner. "Puff--" Several rounds of U.S. military bullets hit Ha Dajiang at the original shooting position.
Chen Jiushan first crawled on the ice mountain, then suddenly got up and ran, "Pah, pah -" fired two shots, then immediately fell down and rolled quickly to the east bank. Erzhu, Li Zhuo and Jin Wang were also like this. They ran for a few times
Step, lie down, charge forward, run and shoot at the same time, "Click--, click--"
U.S. Army Second Lieutenant Grande, with a platoon of troops and more than 20 U.S. soldiers, was ordered to patrol the river. He saw a dozen Chinese soldiers paddling snow sledges and chasing each other on the ice. Grande was heartbroken.
Full of contempt, this is a battlefield, not a playground. Such an army is worthy of competing with the powerful US military. I decided to teach these Chinese troops a lesson and ordered to open fire.
After receiving Lieutenant Grande's order, U.S. Army machine gunner Sergeant Gale picked up a Browning light machine gun and fired violently at the river. The Chinese army's snow sledges were moving rapidly, and Sergeant Gale's shooting was very random.
, did not cause harm to the Chinese army, but unexpectedly stirred up a hornet's nest. The Chinese army counterattacked and attacked from the river.
Sergeant Squad Leader Aqil is a veteran in his thirties and has rich combat experience. After several battles with the Chinese Army, he knows that the individual soldiers of the Chinese Army are of good quality. Although his own side has the advantage in numbers, it does not have heavy weapons to cooperate.
There was no absolute chance of winning, so he suggested, "Second Lieutenant Grande, our mission is to patrol, and there is no mission to engage in firefights with the Chinese army. The weather is cold and not conducive to fighting. We should evacuate immediately and report to our superiors."
Grande had just graduated from the U.S. Army Academy. He was young and energetic. He was very dissatisfied with veterans like Xiang Aqil. He replied, "Sergeant Aqil, the Chinese army has launched a charge. Look, they are not enough."
