The Chinese offensive was swift and violent. Second Lieutenant Hill, who was responsible for guarding the simple fortifications, was knocked down by the shock wave of the grenade explosion. The M1 Garand rifle in his hand disappeared and his helmet also fell. When he saw a Chinese rushing towards him, he was too late.
After thinking, he hurriedly got up from the ground, pulled out the American military dagger - the American M9 Army Thorn, and pounced towards the Chinese.
The U.S. M9 Army Thorn has a blade made of stainless steel. It is forged and processed. It is thick and solid. The surface is dark gray. The blade has been partially heat-treated. The blade is sharp and can chop branches, sticks, and ropes. The back of the blade has serrations on a longer section, which are strong and sharp.
, with a suitable angle, it can cut through aircraft shells and 50.8mm thick pine boards.
American soldiers are not good at using bayonets, but they are good at close combat. This is related to the Westerners' advocating violence. Second Lieutenant Hill is tall and overwhelming in terms of his momentum. The first one to rush into the American fortifications was Second Platoon Commander Jin Gui.
Holding a Deggarev light machine gun, he saw an American soldier, with a strong build and holding a gleaming dagger, rushing towards him.
Jin Gui was a head shorter than Second Lieutenant Hill, and had a slim build. He was a skittish fighter. Realizing that he had no advantage in close combat, he took a step back, picked up the butt of the Deggarev light machine gun and hit Hill on the head.
Go, "Ka--" Lov's light machine gun butt hit Hill hard on the head.
Hill's head was violently hit, blood flowed across it, and his consciousness was a little blurry. His body changed and stopped in place. At the moment of life and death, "Click--" Jin Wang pulled the trigger, and the Bobosha submachine gun in his hand spurted out tongues of fire.
Several bullets passed through Lieutenant Hill's body.
"Jin Wang, your hands are very fast!" Jin Gui praised Jin Wang. Seeing that the rank of the American soldier was second lieutenant, Jin Gui probably was the commander guarding the simple fortifications.
"Ta-da--" Li Zhuo, two pillars, attacked the simple fortifications of the US military. He held a Browning light machine gun and fired violently at several US soldiers. The more than 20 US soldiers guarding the simple fortifications were under the fierce attack of the Ninth Company.
, collapsed instantly, and several American soldiers squatted on the ground, holding their heads in their hands, and gave up resistance.
Fifty meters behind the simple fortification was an abandoned factory. The wooden door of the factory was tightly closed, and the windows were blocked with sandbags. Only a few shooting holes were left. Feng Ren commanded the first platoon, and the second platoon quickly surrounded the abandoned factory.
Second platoon leader Jin Gui suggested, "Company commander, you can use explosive packs to blow up the wall. Our second platoon will be responsible."
Liu Santang put forward a different opinion, "Company Commander, when we attacked the US military signal base, we shouted to the US military, and the effect was good. We can shout first to ask them to surrender. If they don't surrender, we will destroy them." Liu Santang is a political worker and has his own way of doing things.
a set of methods.
Feng Ren knew that the American troops in the abandoned factory were already trapped in the urn and had no way out, so he agreed with Liu Santang's suggestion, "Santong, go call Lu Chen over and ask him to shout and order the Americans in the factory to come out and surrender, otherwise they will be wiped out."
them."
Lu Chen made a paper trumpet and shouted into the factory: "us military brothers, us military brothers, you are surrounded, Come out and
You are surrounded, come out and surrender, the Chinese treat prisoners preferentially)."
The abandoned factory is the command post of Lieutenant Colonel Walker, deputy commander of the Sixth Infantry Regiment of the Thirteenth Division of the U.S. Army. Walker is the top commander of the U.S. Army in Tongcao and a heroic figure in the U.S. Army. He knows that Tongcao has already
Being broken through by the Chinese, he had no way out. Walker's only guard platoon had also been defeated, and the Chinese had arrived outside the factory.
However, Walker did not panic. As a professional soldier, he was faced with death all the time, but he was unwilling to do so. The headquarters ordered him to stand firm and wait for reinforcements. Walker also felt that with the advantage of firepower, he could stand firm for a week. Unexpectedly, it took more than ten hours for the copper to stand still.
The defensive position in Caoli collapsed.
MacArthur (the supreme commander of the U.S. military in the Korean battlefield) must be crazy. He actually said that the Chinese army was just a tribal army and was vulnerable to the powerful U.S. military.
Walker cursed in his heart, and an operator came over and said timidly, "Sir, the Chinese are calling us to surrender, we -"
The operator's words reminded Walker. Walker looked around. More than a dozen people, except for Walker and two staff officers, were all operators and had no combat effectiveness at all. Walker himself was a hero and could ignore life and death, but still
There were more than a dozen telecom operators, and they all looked at Walker with pleading eyes.
Walker sighed, feeling like a hero was at the end of his life, and ordered his subordinates, "Open the door, let's put down our weapons, and ask them to keep their promise and not harm us." Walker still wanted to save face and was unwilling to say the word surrender.
Just say put down your weapons.
Lu Chen shouted several times, but there was still no movement in the factory. Jin Gui was a little impatient and asked Feng Ren for instructions, "Company commander, smash down the wall. Let's charge together and resolve the battle. There is no need to talk nonsense with them."
At this time, "squeak--" the heavy wooden door of the factory opened, and an American soldier walked out, holding a white flag in his hand and saying, "We shall surrender, We shall surrender (we surrender)."
Then several more U.S. soldiers came out, none of them carrying weapons. The last one walked out was a U.S. Lieutenant Colonel, tall and thin, with a pistol on the belt around his waist. The U.S. Lieutenant Colonel was the only one carrying weapons.
people.
The afternoon sun was still very dazzling, and the light inside the factory was dim. Walker walked out of the factory, and the blazing sunlight made it difficult for Walker to open his eyes. However, he could still clearly see the faces of the Chinese people in front of him. They were generally less than 1.7 meters tall and wore coarse cloth coats.
, simple Soviet-made weapons, of course, there were also a few Chinese people carrying captured American weapons and captured American steel helmets. It was these people who captured him. Walker lamented that their weapons were not even as good as those of the North Koreans.
Walker came out of the factory and said arrogantly, "I am Walker lieutenant Colonel, your sir where? (I am Lieutenant Colonel Walker, where is your commander)."
Lu Chen saw a U.S. Army lieutenant colonel walking out and said he wanted to see the commander of the Chinese Army. Lu Chen knew that the U.S. Army was very face-saving and adhered to the principle of reciprocity. The one who accepted the surrender of the U.S. Lieutenant Colonel should be the regiment leader, but the regiment command post
Before entering the city, Lu Chen had an idea, pointed at Feng Ren and said, "Walker Lieutenant Colonel, this is Captain Feng ren (Lieutenant Colonel Walker, this is Colonel Feng Ren)."
Walker heard that the person who came to accept his surrender was a colonel. He felt that he was very proud and handed his gun to Feng Ren. Liu Santang asked strangely, "Lu Chen, what did you say to the US Army Lieutenant Colonel?"
It seems very cooperative.”
Lu Chen smiled mysteriously and replied, "I said, the company commander is a colonel, and his military rank is one level higher than him, so he has a head start, haha——"
