Cheng Min made a suggestion, "Old Feng, I think this method is good. We can ambush a surprise force on the flanks. At the critical moment, attack the U.S. military from the flanks and coordinate the main position, which may have unexpected effects."
The actions of Liu Santang and Chen Jiushan showed that Americans were not used to dividing their forces for ambushes and could easily achieve results.
Cheng Min's suggestion was approved by Feng Ren, "Instructor's idea is very good. Jiu Shan, you are still ambushing on the left wing with two squads of troops. The enemy launched an attack. Half an hour later, you launched the attack. Deputy Liu commanded
I'll go over there with you, and if anything happens, discuss it with Deputy Liu, and hold on until seven o'clock tonight. You can evacuate southward, and the meeting point is Songheli."
Cheng Min proposed that Lu Chen should also participate, "Santong, you robbed a truck and medicines. These things are very precious and cannot be discarded casually. Let Lu Chen go too. He is the only one in the company who can drive a car."
The D field army is short of weapons and medicines. A truckload of medicines can save the lives of many soldiers!
Chen Jiushan led the first squad of Ha Dajiang and the third squad of the second pillar, plus Liu Santang, Lu Chen, and more than 20 people. They climbed out of the trench and quickly ran to the left wing of the position. Looking at Chen Jiushan, Liu Santang led the people away, Feng
Ren ordered, "Everyone leaves the position and retreats 150 meters. The second platoon leader leads a squad to guard in the trench."
Cheng Min was a little confused about Feng Ren's order, "Old Feng, we have all left our positions, what should we do if the US military attacks?"
Feng Ren replied, "After a day of fighting, I basically figured out the pattern of the US military's attack. Aircraft bombing, artillery bombardment, and then infantry charge. The US artillery fire was fierce. Our positions were all simple fortifications and could not withstand the US bombardment."
Indiscriminate bombing will cause too many casualties if the brothers stay on the position. We can greatly reduce the casualties by being 100 meters behind and avoiding the enemy's artillery fire."
Feng Ren ordered the second platoon leader Jin Gui, "Jin Gui, the brothers staying on the position should be one every 20 meters, and put two tree trunks above each person's head. When the US artillery fire is bombarded, they must lie down in the trench and do not show their heads!"
Ten minutes after Feng Ren led the team to evacuate, the sound of flying artillery shells was heard in the air, "squeak——" more than ten seconds later, "boom——" the artillery shells fell on the position and exploded, and a thick smoke rose from the ground.
, stirred up countless gravel and soil. Based on experience, Feng Ren judged that it was a US Army Type 101 105mm howitzer.
The M101 105mm howitzer is a towed medium-caliber howitzer with a caliber of 105mm and a total gun weight of 2030 kilograms. The gun mount is made of welded steel and has an open structure with reinforced ribs inside. The gun barrel is made of high-strength steel.
The M101 105mm howitzer has a muzzle velocity of 472 meters per second, a maximum range of 11 kilometers, a maximum rate of fire of 16 rounds per minute, and a killing radius of 30 meters. It is the main artillery fire of the US military battalion-level combat unit, and is assigned to each infantry battalion.
Eight 105 mm guns.
The U.S. military's artillery fire lasted for more than half an hour, basically covering the entire position. The shelling stopped, and Jin Gui sent out a signal, "Beep, beep, beep, beep -" He blew the whistle hard, indicating that the situation was urgent and that he must enter the position immediately.
Feng Ren led people into the position, and sure enough, the U.S. military began to charge. The U.S. soldiers charging in front actually raised their bayonets. In many battles with the Chinese army, the U.S. military suffered a lot and learned lessons during the bayonet fight.
.
In the telescope, Lieutenant Colonel Bill, deputy commander of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the 13th U.S. Division, looked at the smoke-filled unknown highlands. There was no sound at all on the position. Major Kennison, the U.S. battalion commander, was very optimistic, "Lieutenant Colonel Bill, to such a violent attack
The Chinese army has suffered all casualties due to artillery fire, and I estimate that the Chinese army has lost the ability to fight back."
Bill shook his head and said, "You can't underestimate the enemy. The Chinese are different from the North Koreans, and they are also very different from the Japanese. The Chinese are more cunning and resilient. They have two heavy machine guns on the left and right wings of the charge team to provide cover."
Charge and capture the unknown high ground within an hour."
Browning machine guns are divided into light and heavy ones. The M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun is commonly known as the 0.50 heavy machine gun. It has a total weight of 38.2 kilograms, a tripod of 58.2 kilograms, and a total length of 1653 millimeters.
The tube length is 1,143 mm, the ammunition is 12.7×99 mm, the caliber is 12.7 mm, the shooting speed is 450-580 rounds/minute, the muzzle velocity is 930 meters/second, and the effective range is 1,800 meters.
"Da da, da da da, da da -" The U.S. military's M2 Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun was set up on a hillside 200 meters away from the position on the top of the mountain. It fired wildly and instantly suppressed the firepower on the top of the mountain. However, the M2
The Browning large-caliber heavy machine gun has no protective steel plate, making the machine gunner and ammunition hand vulnerable to attack.
Chen Jiu Shan, who was ambushing on the hillside on the left flank of the US military, was more than 100 meters away from the attacking US troops. He first saw the crazy bombardment of the unknown highlands by US artillery fire, and then the US military launched an attack. Hundreds of US soldiers swarmed down the unknown highlands, worried.
Regarding the safety of the company commander and instructor, I discussed with Liu Santang, "Deputy Commander Liu, the enemy's attack is crazy, let's start attacking too. If time goes by, the company commander and instructor will be in danger."
Liu Santang saw through the telescope that the main position was filled with smoke. The soldiers had begun to fight back. Unfortunately, the firepower was too weak. The US attack team was gradually approaching the top of the mountain. There were still five minutes left before Feng Ren's advance attack order. Action must be taken immediately.
He was waiting, so he said to Chen Jiushan, "Platoon leader, let's start the attack. The main peak position is very dangerous. Lu Chen and I went back fifty meters to find important targets for sniping."
"Dajiang, Second Pillar, fire!" Chen Jiushan gave the order, "Pa--" he pulled the trigger and fired a shot at the US assault team. The 7th Infantry Regiment of the 13th US Infantry Division was an experienced unit. During the charge,
Individual soldiers keep a certain distance between them, usually between five and seven meters, and have green branches stuck on their bodies.
Chen Jiushan hit the helmet of an American soldier. Faced with the sudden attack, the American soldier was so frightened that he lay down on the three slopes. "Pa--" Chen Jiushan's second shot hit an American soldier in the back, more than 100 meters away.
, Chen Jiushan's shooting level is average, but he performed at a superb level today.
"Da da, da da -" After receiving Chen Jiushan's order, Erzhu mounted the Browning light machine gun on a fallen tree trunk and fired violently at the US military. The Browning light machine gun had an effective range of one thousand meters.
It is a powerful weapon in position defense warfare and is very suitable for attacking targets at a distance of one or two hundred meters. Two US soldiers were shot and fell to the ground with the sound of gunfire from the second pillar.
Li Zhuo and Jin Wang were equipped with Bobosha submachine guns, which had powerful firepower and were suitable for positional warfare. They hid under a tall pine tree, picked up their Boboshang submachine guns, and fired fiercely at the U.S. military.
, click—" The Bobosha submachine gun had an effective range of 200 meters, and two U.S. soldiers were shot and rolled down the hillside.
