Ha Dajiang saw an American soldier rushing to a few meters in front of the position. He jumped out of the trench with a shout and rushed towards the American soldier with an M1 assault rifle. Glais was about 1.8 meters tall. Among the Americans,
He is of medium height, and Ha Dajiang is also about 1.8 meters tall, which is considered tall among Chinese people.
Glaish was holding the M1 Garand rifle in his hand. The M1 Garand rifle had a bayonet inserted. Ha Dajiang looked at the rough man. In fact, when fighting with the bayonet, he was extremely cautious and never underestimated any opponent. He was not the champion of the division's bayonet fight.
With his fame in vain, Hadajiang rushed to Glaish, took a horse stance, stabilized his foot, picked up his bayonet, and prepared to stab him.
To Hadajiang's surprise, the American soldier on the opposite side did not raise his gun to respond. Instead, he threw away the M1 Garand rifle in his hand and suddenly lay on the ground, rolling toward Hadajiang. Hadajiang looked confused and didn't know.
What was this American soldier going to do? He jumped out of the way in a hurry. The American soldier rolled very quickly and directly into the trench of the first squadron.
Glaish had joined the U.S. Army for more than a year and had not experienced any major battles or bayonet fighting training. When he saw a Chinese soldier with a fierce look rushing in front of him, it was too late to turn around and run away. Glaish was quick to think and threw it away.
The M1 Garand rifle in his hand was lying on the ground, trying to roll away.
In fact, Glaish's method of rolling down to the ground was very effective and narrowed the target. Unfortunately, Glaish rolled in the wrong direction and rolled directly into the enemy's trench. Glaish felt that he fell heavily into a deep
When I opened my eyes, I discovered the problem. I was surrounded by Chinese faces.
"Spare life, spare life!" Grace was sitting at the bottom of the trench, shouting in horror. Hada Jiang jumped back into the trench, saw the American soldier sitting in the trench, picked up the M1 assault rifle and was about to stab him.
"Dajiang, Dajiang, stop!" Erzhu rushed over from the side, grabbed the body of Hadajiang's M1 assault rifle, and said urgently, "Dajiang, he has lost the ability to resist, he is our prisoner, and he will execute the prisoner privately
, those who will be severely punished, the instructor is very principled and will not give face to anyone."
The attack was thwarted, and the US military's tactics were flexible. Major Harrison, who was commanding the attack, immediately ordered the troops to stop the attack and all retreat to the foot of the mountain. Harrison returned to Lieutenant Colonel Bill's command post and said angrily, "Lieutenant Colonel, we have been deceived.
The Chinese position on the top of the mountain was fake, luring us to waste a lot of artillery shells. Their people were lying in ambush on the hillside and suddenly attacked my soldiers. We suffered heavy losses. After charging for more than half an hour, we lost dozens of soldiers.
Lieutenant Barlow is seriously wounded."
Bill had already seen the battle on the hillside through his telescope, and felt that he had fallen into the Chinese scheme, but he did not expect that the losses would be so heavy.
The United States has strong industrial manufacturing capabilities and never spares bullets and artillery shells. However, if the loss of personnel is too large, it will be unbearable. Bill ordered, "Stop the attack temporarily and contact the Air Force immediately to request another bombing of the Chinese defenders in Songheli."
The Chinese tactics were completely beyond Bill's expectations. They set up a false position and wasted a lot of artillery shells. Most importantly, they wasted precious time. If Songheli cannot be captured before sunset, the battle situation may change unexpectedly.
.
Bill's report caused Major Jones to be reprimanded by his superior, Colonel Jackson. Colonel Jackson patted Major Jones on the shoulder and said, "Young Major, be calmer. If we drop the bomb too far away from the target, we will lose the meaning of dropping the bomb. Go ahead."
, let the Chinese defenders in Songheli know the consequences of deceiving the U.S. Air Force."
"Buzz -" Major Jones piloted a B-25 medium bomber and took his wingman Davis to leave Qingchuan Airport and flew towards Songheli. Jones was angry and confused in his heart and set up a fake position that he had never heard of before.
, it seems that the Chinese army cannot be underestimated. Their thinking is different from that of the Americans. Surprisingly, they are not soldiers from the tribal era.
Flying over Songheli, the gunpowder smoke in the air had not dissipated. This time Jones could see clearly. On the hillside more than 300 meters away from the top of the mountain, the thick black lines on the hillside were the positions of the Chinese army, with red flags planted on the positions.
, Jones issued an order to wingman Davis, "Davis, dive to an altitude of 500 meters and drop bombs in three batches."
Jones pulled the joystick and the B-25 medium bomber dived to a height of 500 meters. Jones saw the trenches clearly and saw soldiers wearing light green military uniforms in the trenches. Jones pressed the launch button without hesitation, and more than a dozen bombers
It popped out from the belly of the plane, "Boom, boom--" the bomb fell on the hillside and exploded, sending thick smoke billowing.
Second Pillar was sitting in the trench. The rubble and sand thrown up by the bomb explosion almost buried Second Pillar. Looking at the US military planes circling in the sky, he was filled with anger. Suddenly, Second Pillar climbed out of the trench and picked up the Browning in his hand.
A light machine gun, pointing its muzzle at a US military aircraft in the sky, is about to fire.
When Ha Dajiang saw that Erzhu was about to shoot at the US aircraft, he hurriedly climbed out of the trench, grabbed Erzhu's legs, and dragged Erzhu back to the trench, shouting, "Erzhu, the head of the headquarters has ordered that it is not allowed to be used.
When machine guns and rifles hit US military aircraft, whoever disobeys the order will be punished. Do you want to bear the punishment?"
Erzhu shook his head regretfully and said, "I think the height of the US military aircraft is only four to five hundred meters, and the effective range of the Browning light machine gun is 800 meters. It will be no problem to shoot down the US military aircraft."
After two rounds of bombing by planes, the Ninth Company's position was almost filled with gravel and sand. A bomb fell into the trench, and more than a dozen soldiers were blown away.
Then there was the shelling that lasted for dozens of minutes. "Bang, bang -" the explosion of American 105 artillery shells was deafening. A large number of soldiers were stunned by the bombs and lay in the trenches.
"Dudu, dudu -" Jin Gui, the commander of the second platoon, blew his whistle with all his strength in order to wake up the soldiers who were stunned by the bomb. "Brothers, get up, get up, the enemy is coming." Jin Gui shouted.
The U.S. military began to charge. This time the U.S. military changed its tactics and formed a three- to five-type charge formation. Taking the squad as a unit, three U.S. soldiers charged, and five U.S. soldiers covered it. They were equipped with two Browning light machine guns and a grenade launcher.
, three to five meters away from each other, Bill issued an order, "Major Harrison, we must capture Songheli before six o'clock in the evening, otherwise we will all be sent to a military court!"
Harrison adjusted the attack formation, adding two heavy machine guns to the left and right wings, and two American T18 armors swam along the road toward Songheli to support the US military's attack operations.
The American T18 is a large, heavily armored 8×8 wheeled armored vehicle with strong firepower. It is equipped with an M6 37mm cannon, a coaxial machine gun, and another machine gun on the top of the turret. The T18 weighs 26.8 tons.
, 6.2 meters long, 3.1 meters wide, 2.6 meters high, with a maximum road speed of 80 kilometers per hour, a maximum range of 400 kilometers, and a 5-person crew.
