Chapter 24 Attack on the Left Wing of the U.S. Army
Looking at the densely packed U.S. soldiers on the hillside in front of us, everyone was a little confused as to what to do. After all, there were only twelve of them. The number of U.S. soldiers charging on the hillside was at least three hundred. They were well-equipped and fully deployed in combat formations.
Liu Santang asked Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen for their opinions, "First Platoon Commander, Lu Chen, what do you think about the current situation?"
The sound of intensive gunfire continued. Chen Jiushan looked at the smoke-filled hillside and said his plan, "Liu Lieutenant Commander, we will launch an attack from the rear of the US military to attract the US military forces over and relieve the pressure on the main position."
Lu Chen's opinion is that the attack should be launched from the left wing of the US military attack team, that is, the west side. This can effectively support the main position, and can also contact the main position in time to coordinate with each other. Liu Santang and Lu Chen are good at marksmanship and can hide behind the US military.
Attack the side and rear of the team and attack important targets.
Lu Chen finally said, "We only have this one chance. We need to move quickly. We must quickly join up with the troops at the main position. Otherwise, once the US military reacts, there will be only a dozen of us and we will immediately counterattack."
Lu Chen's plan was basically the same as Chen Jiushan's idea, except that Lu Chen's plan was more specific. Lu Chen had served as a training team instructor and was good at formulating combat plans.
Chen Jiushan said, "Deputy Commander Liu, I will lead people five hundred meters to the west and launch an attack when we are fifty meters away from the US military. You and Lu Chen will follow us and find a suitable position to snipe. Let's take action."
Chen Jiushan led the third squad of the Second Pillar down from the top of the mountain, bypassed the rearguard of the US attack force to the west, and came to the left wing of the US attack force more than 300 meters away from the main position. There were dense trees on the three slopes, and there were rows of artillery shells.
, no one paid attention to their actions at all. The ten soldiers passed through a sorghum field. The sorghum poles were withered and yellow, and they were still more than fifty meters away from the US military.
Chen Jiushan issued the order, "Second Pillar, open fire. Brothers, please note that we have no bunkers. After firing a few shots, we must change our positions. We must also remember not to be too far away from the Americans to prevent enemy artillery attacks."
The military wisdom of the Chinese people is unfathomable. They can attack from the east and attack from the west, ambush from all sides, stay close to the US military, and avoid US artillery fire. This is one of the military wisdom of the ordinary soldiers of the lower class of China.
After saying that, Chen Jiushan knelt down on one leg, picked up the M1 assault rifle, and fired two shots. A US soldier was shot and fell to the ground.
After the design was completed, Chen Jiushan quickly fell to the ground, rolled and changed positions, rolled out for about ten meters, suddenly stood up, and lay on the ground, "Pop, pop--" Two more shots were fired, and an American soldier was shot and fell.
On the ground, this time the American soldier was shot in the leg and lay on the hillside, rolling and wailing.
"Click--" The American Browning light machine gun was set up on two pillars and fired fiercely at the US military. The Browning light machine gun has the advantages of fierce firepower and strong lethality. It is equipped with a bipod and a gun stock. It can also be used if necessary.
It is installed on a tripod and used as a heavy machine gun. It can be said to be a general-purpose machine gun in essence and is an important firepower fulcrum for the US military squad-level combat unit.
Browning M1919A6 light machine gun, fires 7.62×63mm rifle ammunition, full gun length 963.7mm, barrel length 609.6mm, full gun mass 13.96kg, light barrel mass 2.11kg, muzzle velocity 860m/s, theoretical rate of fire 400-450 rounds
/minute, the combat rate of fire is 120 rounds/minute.
Several American soldiers who were attacking were unprepared for the attack from the flanks. In an instant, their bodies were beaten into pieces, and blood gurgled out. "Ta-da--" Erzhu seized the opportunity and fired a few more bursts. Two American soldiers
The soldier was shot and fell to the ground. After the shooting, Erzhu held the Browning light machine gun and rolled away from the original shooting position.
Li Zhuo moved quickly, lying on the ground, rolling forward to attack. More than thirty meters away from Mei, he suddenly jumped up, knelt down on one leg, and fired fiercely. "Click--" Li Zhuo was equipped with Bobo.
The Sand submachine gun, with its powerful firepower, is one of the famous submachine guns in the Korean War. A U.S. Army grenadier gun.
After Li Zhuo finished shooting, he quickly lay down on the ground and rolled to the left. Since there was no bunker, he could only avoid the enemy's attack by constantly changing his shooting position.
In terms of light infantry combat effectiveness alone, the combat effectiveness of the Chinese D Field Army has reached the peak of the world. Even if it travels to the 21st century, it still has few opponents! The main reason is the lack of heavy firepower, such as tanks, armored vehicles, aircraft, cannons, and ammunition.
The supply is insufficient and the food supply is extremely scarce.
Captain Moore of the 13th U.S. Division led a team to storm the top of the mountain. He was responsible for the security of the left wing of the attacking team. He was suddenly attacked from the left wing. The formation of the attacking team was in chaos. Several American soldiers turned around and ran down the hillside in order to stabilize their position.
In the attack formation, Moore immediately ordered his two Browning light machine guns to return fire.
"Ta-ta, tap--" Two US machine gunners set up two Browning light machine guns and fired violently. Bullets shot to the left like raindrops. Suddenly, a bullet from an unknown source hit the target.
A US machine gunner was hit in the head. The US machine gunner fell to the hillside before he could even grunt.
Liu Santang and Lu Chen were hiding behind a camphor pine tree. This camphor pine tree was more than 20 meters high and one and a half meters in diameter at breast height. It had a stretched crown and dense branches and leaves. It was 150 meters away from the battlefield. The battlefield was filled with smoke, which affected the people.
However, Liu Santang still found the target, "Lu Chen, there are two American machine gunners in the northwest direction. You snipe the sniper on the right, and I'll snipe the one on the left."
Liu Santang picked up the Mosin-Nagant rifle, pulled the bolt, and prepared to shoot. A puff of smoke drifted past, obscuring the figures of the two US machine gunners. Liu Santang could only wait for a while before shooting, "Pa--" Unexpectedly
Lu Chen took the lead in shooting. The smoke drifted past. Liu Santang saw the sniper on the right lying on the gun position. Lu Chen's sniper was effective.
"Pa--" Lu Chen then fired another shot, hitting the sniper on the left. Liu Santang was impressed and praised, "Lu Chen, your marksmanship is so good, you are much better than me!"
Lu Chen smiled and replied, "Back then, I was in the teaching team at the division headquarters and was responsible for shooting training for non-commissioned officers. I had good marksmanship and was fed bullets. I was also trained by US military instructors in India. This time, I gave it to the Americans.
Yes, but this Mosin-Nagant rifle is really good and has good shooting stability, no less than the German 98K sniper rifle."
Two U.S. soldiers quietly moved from the right side in the direction of the Xinchen Jiushan people, a distance of 120 meters. They seemed to be outflanking them, leaving Liu Santang behind. This time Liu Santang did not give Lu Chen a chance.
He picked up his Mosin-Nagant rifle and fired two shots in a row, hitting two American soldiers in the back.
Two U.S. soldiers were unprepared for attacks from the side and rear. They were shot in the body and rolled down the hillside.
