Wang Dahu did not expect that this engineering battalion in Gushan would be so tenacious. He thought he had finally picked up a soft persimmon, but he never expected that after three companies rushed forward, they were defeated one after another under the fierce firepower of the opponent. They came to the formation with no achievements, but lost troops and generals. The most tragic thing is that the commander of the third battalion was also killed in this battle.
Wang Dahu came to the foot of Gushan Mountain in person. The sky was about to get bright at this time. He could hear the sound of gunfire on the battlefields on all sides. However, he still had no results here, not even one person who defeated the enemy. Didn't see the opportunity.
Thunder also crawled to Wang Dahu's side. At this time, he was acting as the battalion commander of Cao Shuang's battalion. His battalion had not really been involved in the battle.
"Old Lei, is your information accurate?" Wang Dahu couldn't help but ask Lei Lei in a low voice.
"Of course it's accurate!" Lei Lei replied confidently.
Wang Dahu held up his telescope and looked at the enemy's position on the opposite hill. He shook his head and sighed: "If an engineer battalion can fight so well, this reorganized 11th Division really deserves its reputation!"
Lei Lei nodded and said nothing, but took the telescope handed over by Wang Dahu and looked over there. At this time, the sky was already getting bright. On the top of Gushan Mountain opposite, two enemy fireforts were shooting back and forth at the soldiers of the Tiger Regiment who were charging again. They were a company of the Second Battalion. At this time, they had rushed to the foot of Gushan Mountain, but could no longer move forward. Many people were prostrate in the muddy water, unable to get up, and they could hardly even lift their heads. Fortunately, it had been raining all night since last night and had stopped at this time. Otherwise, it would have been even more difficult for everyone to soak in the rain.
The Tiger Regiment is mainly attacking the north side of Gushan, and there is also a company on standby on the west side. The enemy's firepower in that direction does not seem to be very sufficient.
"Commander, I'm going up from the west with a battalion!" Lei Ting told Wang Dahu.
Wang Dahu looked over there and said worriedly: "Are you okay?"
Lei Lei nodded and said: "While the sky is not fully lit yet, why don't we occupy the position on one side of Gushan Mountain? Otherwise, it will be more difficult to attack during the day!"
Wang Dahu looked at his watch. It was already past four o'clock and it was about to dawn. He had no choice but to nod his head and said with concern: "Okay, Lao Lei, you have to be more careful!"
Lei Lei glanced at him. Although he was still somewhat estranged from the group leader, when Wang Dahu said these words, he saw that there was no trace of hypocrisy in his eyes. He nodded, climbed down again, and returned to the headquarters of his first battalion.
Soon, Lei Lei gathered the entire first battalion, which consisted of more than 400 warriors. Half of them were originally his old troops and came from the reorganized 74th Division, so his command was much smoother than Cao Shuang's. .
Lei Lei personally led the team to the west of Gushan Mountain. There was a smooth road from here to Gushan Mountain, about a mile long. However, the road from Lu Village passed through the south of Gushan Mountain, passing through it. Through this flat land, you can also reach the road to the south. Because Gushan Mountain is dangerous and can achieve a condescending effect, the national army did not set up a fortress on the flat land here.
At this time, the attack on the north side was intensifying, and both sides were engaged in fierce offensive and defense. The garrison commander of Gushan was still inexperienced after all, and only sent two platoons of troops to guard the west side. The battlefield is so ruthless, even a little carelessness may lead to overall failure.
This should be the last chance. Lei Lei and his men quickly rushed across the open plain. However, before the whole battalion reached the foot of the mountain, the enemy discovered it and immediately opened fire. A grenade was fired at Lei Lei. There was an explosion next to him, and the guard next to him reacted quickly and threw him to the ground with just one pounce. When Lei Lei got up, he found that his guard had fallen into the muddy water, and he was still young and immature. His face was covered with blood, and when he held the kid in his arms, he realized that he had stopped breathing.
An unprecedented sadness arose spontaneously, and Lei Lei suddenly felt that if he didn't take down the mountain this time, then not only would he be sorry for Xu Guang and Mr. Chen, but also for the security guard who sacrificed his life to protect himself.
At that moment, Lei Lei gave a loud shout and took the lead to rush towards the hillside. Seeing that their leaders were taking the lead, the many soldiers behind him forgot about life and death and rushed towards the mountain.
Bullets from the mountain rained down like rain. Although he saw his comrades falling to the ground one after another, Lei Lei seemed to be unaware. After a few leaps, he had already arrived.?! Xiong Kaiping nodded, but then asked: "So, when will we attack?" "
"Don't panic yet, let's see the situation!" Zhang Xian said: "At this time, the enemy is definitely more anxious than us. Their follow-up troops are still crossing the river. Only the position on the river bank cannot accommodate it. The more dense their personnel are, the more likely they will be. The easier it is for our artillery strikes, the more chaotic it will be. When their attack is weak, it is time for us to start attacking!"
"Okay!" Xiong Kaiping responded and hurried to arrange it.
*****************
The artillery fire at the bottom of the mountain finally found its direction and hit the top of the mountain. However, the first few guns also caused a lot of losses to the Thunder battalion. A company commander couldn't help but yell: "Damn it, why are these artillerymen so useless? They can't hit the enemy, but they hit their own people!"
Lei Lei furrowed his brows. Judging from the few shots just now, the trajectories of the cannonballs were closely related to their impact points. They were definitely not random shots due to technical capabilities. However, the artillery fire that hit the top of the mountain at this time was somewhat Scattered. He couldn't help but feel a little worried, and immediately thought of Wei Lengzi, and a very bad guess arose spontaneously.
However, Lei Lei was no longer allowed to have any more random thoughts at this time. The Battle of Gushan had reached its most critical moment. The enemy troops on the top of the mountain were suppressed by the artillery fire of the People's Liberation Army down the mountain. The ferocious firepower was suppressed. This was also an unacceptable situation. Opportunities missed by people. He shouted and jumped up, and the trumpeter beside him immediately blew the charge horn. The loud horn sounded throughout the mountain peaks after the early morning rain.
At this time, the National Army engineer camp on the top of the mountain was in chaos. The People's Liberation Army from the north and west had already rushed up, and the forwards turned into hand-to-hand combat. Battalion Commander Sun was still heading towards Gaozhuang's brigade. The troops were calling for reinforcements, but at this time Brigadier Qin was more concerned about the powerful enemy rushing across the Yi River to the east. How could he spare the troops to reinforce Gushan Mountain. Brigadier Qin shouted at the top of his lungs to Battalion Commander Sun, asking him to hold on to this position. If the people are in the position, if the position is not there, the people will not come back! At the same time, he also encouraged him to launch a counterattack and drive down the enemy troops who rushed to the top of the mountain. At this time, Brigadier Qin also regretted it. Although he had sent a battalion to guard Gushan, why did he send such an engineer battalion that had never fought in a major battle?
Knowing that the brigade commander could not send troops, Battalion Commander Sun was very desperate and could only bite the bullet and order the companies and platoons to resist with all their might. But when he led his men out of the command post and saw that his position had become a mess, he immediately felt guilty. At this time, the entire position was in chaos. Although the National Army still had the upper hand in terms of personnel, the forwards of the People's Liberation Army had already reached the top of the mountain and were engaging in hand-to-hand combat with the defenders on the top of the mountain. They saw a brother screaming in agony. He died under the opponent's bayonet, but the People's Liberation Army's successors continued to come up. The soldiers from both sides were mixed together, and two more soldiers from both sides were hugging each other and rolling on the ground. The two of them rolled down the mountain together, not knowing whether they were dead or alive.
Battalion Commander Sun had never seen such a formation before, and he immediately became frightened. Without any explanation, he pulled out his legs and ran down the east hillside.
Seeing their battalion commander running away first, the Chinese soldiers who were still tenacious and desperate at this time immediately lost their opinions and followed the battalion commander's footsteps and ran down the mountain. And more officers and soldiers who had no time to escape naturally became prisoners of the Tiger Regiment! (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
