Chapter 105: Trading Life for Time
"Ge Miao, lead the soldiers of the 13th Company to circle the entire mountain and see if there are other ways to go down the mountain." On the front battlefield, an enemy company had been completely wiped out, so He Yuzhu said to Ge Miao.
"Yes!"
Ge Miao nodded, and immediately waved his hand to lead the 13th Company to begin patrolling at the foot of the mountain.
"Da da da……"
"Da da da……"
At this time, the soldiers of the 28th Company were still exchanging gunfire with the enemy troops who were coming down from the high ground.
With a large number of tires as cover, the 28th Company actually had an advantage in gun battles.
"Boom!"
"Boom."
The British troops on Hill 211 began to bombard the area from below with artillery shells.
However, most of the soldiers of the 50th Battalion were stationed on the reverse slope of the high ground, which was a blind spot and could not be reached by artillery shells. In addition, the fortifications made of piled tires were built under a pile of rocks, making it difficult for artillery shells to hit them.
As long as the 50th Battalion does not attack the high ground, the 50th Battalion will have the advantage.
If the enemy does not move, I will not move.
Don't attack upwards.
"retreat!"
"retreat!"
The battalion commander of the British 12th Brigade discovered that something was wrong at this time, and stopped letting the soldiers rush down. Instead, he led the soldiers back to defend the high ground. An entire company below the high ground had been destroyed. They had come to support, but since the company had already been destroyed, they were not in a hurry to attack the 50th Battalion immediately. Advancing recklessly would only cause heavy casualties and result in heavy losses.
"Have some brains."
At this time, He Yuzhu saw the enemy troops on the high ground retreating continuously, so he whispered softly that if they attacked down the mountain, He Yuzhu could guarantee that he would kill as many as they came.
However, the enemy's retreat was also within He Yuzhu's expectations.
Those who can be commanders are mostly fools.
Rare.
"beat!"
"We can't let them retreat so easily."
He Yuzhu said loudly.
"Da da da……"
"Da da da……"
Bullets continued to fire at the retreating enemy troops on the high ground.
Every extra enemy you can kill is a victory.
He Yuzhu never spares bullets when fighting.
Because the enemy will send bullets.
Just hit and that's it.
"Clear the battlefield." As there was no trace of the enemy left, He Yuzhu said loudly.
The soldiers began to confiscate the enemy's supplies, of course, the most important of which was ammunition.
Then, the 50th Battalion successfully carried out the siege plan.
first day.
All is well.
The next day, everything was peaceful.
On the third day, the British troops on the high ground began to become restless.
The 50th Battalion has not left yet.
They could probably guess what the 50th Battalion meant. They wanted to starve them to death on the high ground!
The British troops on Hill 211 started to move from the third day. They did not want to sit and wait for death, and kept sending out soldiers to find a way down the mountain. During this process, if their scouts were discovered by the 50th Battalion, they would be shot to death.
Day .
The enemy actually found a second way down the mountain, but because it was too rough, they could only send a platoon, intending to go out secretly and get some food.
"Da da da……"
"Da da da……"
The 13th Company, which was in ambush, followed a platoon of British troops down the mountain and was immediately attacked by bullets from all directions, instantly killing an entire platoon member at a long distance.
A platoon of British soldiers were all shot into pieces by guns.
Bleeding constantly.
They didn't even have a chance to shoot.
Several British scouts on the high ground had been secretly watching a platoon's descent from the mountain. When they saw the platoon being completely wiped out by the Wansui Army, they were shocked and cold sweat broke out on their foreheads. They hurried to report to the battalion commander.
On the sixth day of the siege, the British army was quiet.
Seventh day.
Eighth day.
"Made."
"This British army is really a tortoise."
"They hide in hiding after we only defeated one of their platoons. Humph, I wonder how long they can hold on." Ge Miao, the captain of the 13th Company, was guarding the second path that the British army could use to go down the mountain, and he was cursing. Ge Miao's favorite way of fighting was that neither side had any cover, and they just fought with real guns and swords. The winner would be the king and the loser would be the bandit. Ge Miao didn't like so many twists and turns.
He Yuzhu stood in a relatively high position.
Look at the big picture.
The 50th Battalion is always ready.
There is no slackness at all.
Xu Damao and Jia Dongxu, at this time following the 8th Platoon of the 6th Company, were performing shift-based reconnaissance tasks nearby.
"stop!"
The platoon leader of Platoon 6 was an experienced veteran. He sensed something was wrong and gestured for silence.
I seemed to hear the sound of a car.
"Did you hear the sound of the car?" Fan Dehai, the platoon leader of the 6th platoon, asked Xu Damao and others.
Xu Damao and other recruits shook their heads like rattles.
I heard nothing.
Fan Dehai continued to listen carefully. Even though the sound was extremely faint, he clearly heard the sound of the car.
At this point in time, it is impossible for the Wansui Army to appear ahead.
Then there is only one possibility.
If there really is a car, then there are enemy troops.
"go!"
"Go take a look at the front."
"If you spot enemy troops, report to the camp immediately."
Van der Hey said.
He then led 6 platoons forward.
Probably within ten minutes.
really.
Saw a long line of enemy troops.
At least one battalion of troops.
"British Army!"
"It's the British Army!"
"Made."
"The enemy troops on Hill 211 must be unable to hold on any longer, so they requested reinforcements."
"go!"
"Hurry and report to the battalion commander."
Van der Hey said.
This is extremely urgent information.
The 50th Battalion must make plans early, but the enemy's sudden attack will really cause heavy casualties.
"call out!"
When Fan Dehai said they wanted to evacuate, a rocket launcher fired towards them as if to tear the space apart. When they saw the enemy, the enemy also discovered them. There was even an enemy soldier on an armored vehicle carrying a rocket launcher, who directly fired at the 6th platoon.
"Boom!"
The rocket launcher fired very accurately and exploded directly in the 6-row camp.
Three soldiers died directly.
Two fighters broke their legs.
Among them was the 6th Platoon Leader Fan Dehai, who also lost a leg.
"run!"
"Run the fuck away!"
Fan Dehai said loudly.
Jia Dongxu and Xu Damao were dizzy from the explosion of the rocket launcher.
Saw a tragic scene.
They came to their senses immediately.
"run!"
"run!"
"Hurry back to the camp to report."
"Grass!"
"Why are you still standing there!"
Fan Dehai was almost anxious when he saw that the recruits were still in a daze.
"run!"
Xu Damao said.
The best option is to quickly return to the 50th Battalion to report.
At this time, Fan Dehai and another soldier with a broken leg were crawling towards the enemy.
"Boom!"
They chose to self-destruct by leaning against the mountain to avoid being insulted by the enemy. At the same time, the explosion caused the rocks to roll down, blocking the road and delaying the enemy's advance.
