Taking advantage of the darkness that passed almost instantaneously, Xiong Gegeru withdrew the people in his company from the front. Everyone was crawling and rolling down the hillside. At this time, they also forgot that they might fall to pieces. I just want to get out of the enemy's powerful fire damage area as soon as possible. In order to attract the enemy's attention, Zhang Xian ordered Xiong Sanwa and He Qiang to lead dozens of soldiers to take advantage of the cover of the rocks at the foot of the mountain to shoot at the enemies on the mountain to combat the arrogance of their opponents. In this way, the battle at Wangshan in the south of Dipingli started under such a passive situation.
At this time, Paul, who was sitting in the Tuipingli train station, let out a long breath. He had been wondering why Nanfang hadn't heard the gunfire yet, fearing that his opponent would make a surprise attack, until the explosion in Nanfang The sound rang, and Battalion Commander Jerim also called, reporting to him the situation over there.
"Sir, it's just as you expected. The enemy was preparing to sneak attack on us, but we still discovered it and we have beaten them back!" Battalion Commander Jerem told Paul proudly. .
"Very good!" Paul felt satisfied, but he was also happy. If Wangmei Mountain had not missed a mistake in the afternoon, he might not have stepped up to plug the leak. There is an idiom in China, which is called "it is not too late to make up for the situation before the sheep is gone". If Without the false alarm in the afternoon, he would not be as confident as he is now.
Paul gave Jerem a few more words and promised to provide them with sufficient artillery support at his most critical moment. Now the artillery positions in the Tipingli circular defense circle have become the most important killing weapons tonight.
Captain Richardson walked in and reported to him the situation in several other directions in Tuiping. Although the fighting in the other three directions started earlier, there were no dangers. The fighting process was almost the same as yesterday. It was the same thing at night. The Chinese had indeed strengthened their deployment of troops, but there was no better way to break through their strong defensive positions. Even the forward positions could not stand. The only thing that worries him is that tonight's opponent has already been supported by artillery fire. In last night's battle, from beginning to end, except for the roar of a few mortars, he was hit by a heavy cannon. He didn't even hear the explosion of artillery shells. He kept wondering, how could these Chinese fight the war without the support of artillery? For these American soldiers, this is simply unbelievable.
"The enemy has already launched an artillery attack!" Richardson said to Paul worriedly: "They have set up artillery on Mashan, and they can hit any corner of us from there."
Paul nodded, but comforted the regiment leader: "Don't worry, their artillery fire is limited and won't cause much damage to us. I will call our planes and ask them to bomb Mashan even at night." "
"The battle has just begun now, and the whole night is still very long. We should go and urge our reinforcements. Those guys are afraid that they will use darkness as an excuse to stop marching again!" Richardson said with some worry.
This issue is what Paul is worried about. Although General Ridgway gave him a guarantee and issued a death order to the reinforcements, the commander's determination is one thing, and after the order is issued, it is another matter. In the U.S. military, there has never been a case where a regiment commander was shot due to failure. Although he also believed in the ability of the reinforcements, Captain Hoffman, there was no guarantee that something unexpected would happen. If the reinforcements could not arrive, then the lone soldiers of the 23rd Regiment would really have to fight. It is possible to feel hopeless. If the soldiers feel hopeless and have no hope, then they will naturally not persist to the death.
"I'll call General Ridgway again right now!" Paul made a decision.
Xiong Guangye was a little disgraced at this time. One of his companies lost more than half of its men before they even started fighting. Fortunately, he had experienced too many big and small battles, and his experience on the battlefield was very rich. Seeing that the situation was not good, he quickly lay down and rolled down the hillside. Otherwise, even if he was not killed by the enemy's mines, he might be hit by the enemy's machine gun. Even so, when he got up from the ground, he didn't know where his hat had fallen. There were cuts on his head and face made by stones. In the cold weather, the blood flowed out and then solidified. There, under the light of the flares, he looked like a living ghost; if he hadn't been wearing a relatively thick cotton-padded jacket in the winter, his body would have been bruised and bruised.
Fortunately, Zhang Xian led a company behind Xiong Revolutionary's company and covered them in time. Therefore, when another enemy flare rose into the sky, the enemies could be seen still struggling on the hillside. Move down the mountainnbsp; Qian Xiongfeng made some specific arrangements for each regiment. As soon as he finished explaining his arrangements, Li Qingcheng turned back and told him: "In ten minutes, our artillery will sound. Wang Dahu has promised to give us this Let¡¯s keep firing for ten minutes!¡±
"Okay, ten minutes is almost enough!" Qian Xiongfeng said, looking at his watch again, and then ordered his commander: "You go and prepare immediately. It's eight o'clock now, twenty minutes." Finally, launch a strong attack!"
"Yes!" The two group leaders agreed and went separately.
Zhang Xian was a little confused. He knew that the heavy artillery regiment of the 72nd Army should have been in place last night. However, because the target was accidentally exposed during the march, it was bombed many times by enemy planes in turn. The losses were very heavy. Even if you think about it, even if you reach Mashan with a cannon, there will be only a few cannons that can actually be fired. I'm afraid there won't even be ten. Even if we say we fight for ten minutes first, in the end, it may only be to embolden ourselves. I'm afraid the damage to the enemy's position will be limited. But think about it, after all, there are still artillery. Compared with last night, this is a huge difference. (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
