Chapter 72: Assault on the Qingchuan River Bridge 8
Liu Santang and Chen Jiushan led a platoon of soldiers and retreated into the woods. They counted the number of soldiers. There were still fifteen soldiers in the whole platoon. Counting Liu Santang and Lu Chen, there were seventeen people in total. The location they were in was a camphor pine forest to the northeast.
Five hundred meters away, it was still a mountain range with a height of four to five hundred meters. After Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen broke off, Liu Santang led everyone to run towards the mountains quickly.
Lieutenant Harrison led the attack and found that the Chinese army on the opposite side made little resistance, so he retreated into the woods, and there were sparse gunshots. He immediately realized that the number of Chinese soldiers was very small, about 20 people, and there was no Ackerman.
The more than 200 people exaggerated must destroy this group of Chinese troops. Harrison secretly made up his mind and commanded his subordinates to launch a fierce attack into the woods.
Seeing the US troops rushing over, Chen Jiushan, who was in charge of breaking up the rear, said to Lu Chen, "Lu Chen, let's divert the US troops eastward to buy some time for Deputy Chief Liu and his brothers."
The U.S. military rushed over from the south. To the west was the Qingchuan River. The Qingchuan River was unobstructed. Walking on it was a living target. There was only one road to the east. "Bah!" Lu Chen quickly fired a shot. Only seventy
At a distance of several meters, Lu Chen barely needed to aim. A US soldier was shot and fell to the ground.
Lu Chen fired a shot, and immediately ran eastward with Chen Jiushan. "Click, click -" dense bullets flew over Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen's heads. The US military fired fiercely and chased them from behind.
.
Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen ran through the gap between the tree trunks and ran for a while. When they saw the pursuing U.S. troops stop, Chen Jiushan judged that the U.S. troops might have discovered that they were chasing in the wrong direction and waved to Lu Chen. The two returned and saw several
A U.S. soldier turned around and pursued north, which was the direction Liu Santang and others retreated.
Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen were on the right wing of the US military pursuit team. "Boom -" Chen Jiushan threw a grenade from a distance of more than 40 meters. The grenade exploded behind an American soldier, and the US soldier was blown away. "Bang -"
—" Lu Chen pulled the trigger of the Mosin-Nagant rifle and killed an American soldier.
Harrison led the team into the woods. A soldier reported that the Chinese army ran eastward. Harrison immediately ordered a pursuit eastward. After chasing for a few minutes, Harrison discovered a problem. The Chinese army he was chasing occasionally fired a few shots.
No machine guns, just non-stop running.
Harrison immediately ordered to stop the pursuit. Harrison judged that he was chasing in the wrong direction. The Chinese troops running to the east were just a few laggard soldiers of the Chinese army. He immediately ordered a pursuit to the northeast. Unexpectedly, his right wing was attacked.
, a grenade exploded behind Harrison, killing an American soldier, and Harrison was also pushed several meters away by the blast of air.
In the telescope, Harrison saw several Chinese soldiers running eastward along the trees. They were a thousand meters away from the mountains on the east side. The Chinese soldiers must not be allowed to enter the mountains. The Chinese soldiers were hardworking and had extremely strong survivability.
They are agile and flexible. Once they enter the mountains, they are like a fish in water. It is difficult to catch them.
"Ta-ta, bang--" Harrison directed the U.S. soldiers to swarm in the direction in which Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen were running. "Whoosh--, boom--" a U.S. grenadier threw a
The artillery shells and grenades had very low shooting accuracy and exploded more than thirty meters away from Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen.
U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Jim is a sniper, holding a German sniper rifle-98K sniper rifle in his hand. Germany is a major industrial country. The 98K sniper rifle produced by Germany was the best sniper rifle during the Korean War. Jim was attacking the team.
On the left wing, holding a 98K sniper rifle, looking for sniper targets.
There were only two people, Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen. Their target was small and they ran fast. It was difficult for Jim to determine the target. After chasing for a few minutes, the opportunity came. Jim saw a Chinese soldier running from one tree trunk to another.
Move, left front, 150 meters away, "Pa--" Jim fired quickly, and saw the Chinese soldiers falling to the ground from a distance.
Jim was very excited. He ran a few steps forward with the 98K sniper rifle, wanting to see if the Chinese soldier had been shot. "Pop!" A bullet flew over and hit Jim's left chest instantly. Jim fell to the ground.
, Jim is also a sniper himself. Running on the battlefield, even if it is only a few steps, exposes the target and commits a sniper taboo.
A soldier reported to Harrison that Sergeant Jim had been shot in the chest and was no longer alive. Jim was a veteran with more than ten years of military experience. He was thirty-five years old and was a good friend of Harrison. Harrison hurriedly followed the soldiers.
When he came to Jim, he was leaning against the trunk of a camphor pine tree, his chest bloody and bloody.
Harrison held Jim's hands tightly and solemnly swore, "Jim, I will definitely catch the Chinese soldier who shot you, avenge you, and let several Chinese people die without a burial place."
Harrison shook his head and answered with difficulty, "Harrison, this is a battlefield. We are all soldiers. We have no personal grudges. I was a little excited and made a taboo, exposing my target. The Chinese soldier on the opposite side is a warrior and a soldier."
An excellent sniper, he quickly locked onto the target and shot accurately."
A soldier ran over and reported to Harrison, "Sir, the Chinese army has run up the hillside ahead. Do you want to continue the pursuit?"
Looking at Sergeant Jim, who was lying on the ground with no breath left, Harrison was angry and helpless. To the east, with the rolling hills and boundless forest trees, looking for a few Chinese soldiers was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Harrison ordered, "Retreat all to the bridgehead position and carry up the brothers who were killed." Harrison led the team and left angrily, full of doubts in his heart. Where was the runway of the Chinese Army guarding the bridgehead of the Qingchuan River Bridge? The Chinese Army opposite him was no more than four
five people.
As the U.S. military pursued them, Chen Jiushan and Lu Chen ran desperately to the east, aiming for the mountain peak a thousand meters away to the east. The mountain was steep. As long as they entered the hillside, they would have a chance to deal with the U.S. military.
Suddenly, there was a gunshot, and Chen Jiushan, who was on the right side of Lu Chen, was shot and fell to the ground. Lu Chen's heart sank. The platoon leader was shot. However, Lu Chen did not go over to see Chen Jiushan immediately. The US military had snipers.
, if you run towards Chen Jiushan at this time, you will be a living target for US snipers.
Lu Chen locked the direction and position of the US sniper based on the sound of gunshots. Sure enough, he saw a US soldier, hunched over, running forward, a distance of 150 meters away. "Pa--" Lu Chen shot decisively
, the American soldiers fell down in response.
Although the Mosin Nagant rifle is not a specialized sniper rifle, it has good shooting stability. When shooting at a distance of two to three hundred meters, the shooting accuracy is similar to that of the 98K sniper rifle.
"Pah, pah -" Lu Chen fired two shots in succession, but these two shots were blind shots. The purpose was to suppress the US military's firepower and rescue Chen Jiushan. Lu Chen quickly climbed to Chen Jiushan's side, pushed Chen Jiushan, and eagerly
shouted, "One row long, one row long, how about it!"
