The heavens start from Changjin Lake

Chapter 191 The final battle
The wounded looked firm, and after exchanging opinions, they wrapped a large number of grenades around their waists, with determination on their faces, and they were determined to fight the enemy until they died.The counterattack troops suffered heavy casualties, and the wounded in the tunnel spontaneously formed combat squads one by one, rushed to the position and fought the enemy desperately.

When the ammunition on their bodies was finished, they looked at the enemy rushing up. A wounded man pulled a grenade on his body and rolled down the hill from the high ground. In a violent explosion, blood-colored soil set off ten feet High, the aftermath of the explosion knocked away the enemies around him.

They used their own lives to compose a mournful song, and their young lives dissipated in loud roars.

The soldiers seem to have been prepared to sacrifice a long time ago. When they faced the enemy and pulled the grenade on their bodies, they did not have the slightest fear or hesitation. They pulled the grenade on their bodies very decisively. They used their lives to resist the attack. The enemy attacks wave after wave.

However, the enemy did not give up, and their crazy attack started again.

On the No. [-] position, Zeng Yunqing was seriously injured and went into the battle enduring severe pain, but a piece of shrapnel wounded his right eye, and his left eye was also covered by smoke, dust and sand, and he could not see his fingers. Just rely on two ears to find the enemy, and throw grenades and grenades after hearing the enemy's roar.

The soldiers carried Company Commander Zeng to the back of the position, but now that the battle is getting fiercer, one less person means that the chance of the enemy breaking through the position increases by one point, not to mention that he is a party member, so he should rush to the front, he ignores the soldiers They blocked them and arrived at the position again.

Fighting until dawn, there were only six fighters left on the No. [-] position, three on the left wing and three on the right wing.

Zeng Yunqing touched a few grenades, leaned on the roots of the tree and went to the ground. He lay down behind the enemy's corpse and told the soldier Yang Luchang: "Call me when the enemy comes up!"

Luchang Yang saw the company commander's lips tightened because of the pain all over his body, and his heart was full of grief, and tears streamed down his face.

The enemy came up again, but Lu Chang Yang didn't tell Company Commander Zeng, he led another soldier to fight down.

The sky is getting brighter.

Zeng Yunqing and the soldiers were lying on the ground. The enemy organized another attack at dawn. During this defensive battle, a shell broke Zeng Yunqing's stomach. He stood up tenaciously and threw the last grenade. sacrifice.

Right wing.

When the battle was fierce, the No. [-] position was lost, and Xia Yuan led the last two soldiers to fight fiercely with the enemy relying on the trench. When the bullets ran out, they smashed the enemy with stones, knocked the enemy back, and rushed out of the bunker quickly Pick up the weapons and ammunition on the enemy's corpse, and quickly replenish your own ammunition.

"This group of foreign devils have been fighting for three days, and they will continue to fight if they can't beat them."

Hu Changdao wiped off the dust on his face, except for his eyes, which were white, everything else was black. The continuous fighting wounded all three of them. Hu Changdao's left arm was wounded by shell shrapnel, and Xia Yuan's abdomen was hit by shell shrapnel. Wearing clothes, the whole body is dirty.

They have been standing on the ground for several days, and I don't know how many enemies they have repelled. They just ate some steamed buns earlier, and they spent the rest of the time. Facing the enemy's aggressive attack, the three relied on tenacious fighting Will, to repel the enemy wave after wave.

On the battlefield filled with gunpowder smoke, Hu Changdao lay on the bunker to observe, Xia Yuan and another soldier named Yang Shaowei rested in the trench, the ground of the trench was broken shrapnel except bullet casings, the broken guns were scattered in the trench, Buried in the soil, some have half of the gun body exposed, and some have only a gun handle exposed.

The remains of the soldiers were neatly placed in the cat's ear hole by them.

Thick gunpowder smoke filled the air, and the sky that raised his head was covered by gunpowder smoke.

Xia Yuan can't remember what day it is today, it should be No.17 or No.18, the No. [-] position is still firmly in their hands, and the people around him come and change , Just like the green leaves in spring turn into dead leaves and fall to the ground in autumn, and the next spring will be covered with tender green leaves.

The sharp whistling sound of enemy artillery shells sounded again in the sky, blooming everywhere on the position.

The three quickly hid in the cat's ear hole, and waited until the enemy's artillery extended to the rear. With Xia Yuan's order, they rushed out of the cat's ear hole, and quickly returned fire to the enemy with the help of the guns and ammunition placed in the trench before. The sound of machine gun fire echoed in the valley, and the sound of artillery was deafening.

When the enemy's cannons ended, our army's cannons rang again, blooming everywhere in the front of the position.

There are not many follow-up reinforcements coming up again despite the enemy's artillery fire. Now we have entered the final pull of the 537.7 highland. The soldiers standing on the ground have clearly felt that the enemy's offensive is not as good as once. From the very beginning, we can organize a battalion The attack of the super unit, and now it is basically rushing up the mountain one by one.

The soldiers all knew that the enemy was almost at the end of their ropes and was about to give up, and the hope of victory was just around the corner.

From the 14th to the 20th, the 12rd Regiment of the 31st Division of the 93th Army and the 34th Regiment of the 106th Division went into battle successively. There is no solid tunnel support, which increases the difficulty of counterattacking and consolidating the position.Under extremely difficult conditions, the 537.7th Regiment, with the support of deep and powerful artillery fire, first fought with the enemy in small units in the forward position, covering the main force to rush to repair tunnels and ground fortifications.

At the front of the No. [-] position, Xia Yuan led a squad of soldiers to fight against the enemy, while the rear troops quickly built trenches, bomb shelters, and garrison tunnels.

After the tunnel was built, the soldiers relied on the tunnel to fight against the enemy. The brutal battle lasted for several days. Xia Yuan suffered various degrees of gunshot wounds. After being injured, Xia Yuan still insisted on the front line in battle.

He has already learned the time from a battalion commander of the 106th regiment, and Xia Yuan has also realized that the battle in Shangganling is almost over, but he is no longer himself who just entered Shangganling. own Chinese soul.

On the 21st and 22nd, the "United Nations Army" was no longer able to organize an attack with troops above the battalion. It only carried out small-scale attacks with troops ranging from one platoon to one company. There were only small-scale battles in other areas of Shangganling. Volunteers huddled in the fortifications and did not dare to act rashly after the massive destruction of defensive troops and artillery fire.

On the 25th.

A new round of scramble began, and the weak enemy organized the last large-scale attack. After repelling the enemy's attacks several times, the enemy's shelling fell again. Xia Yuan led several remnants of the army to stand firm on the No. [-] surface position. When the enemy's artillery fire covered it, Xia Yuan entered the bomb shelter to cover Hu Changdao, but unfortunately was hit by the artillery shell and passed out.

The soldiers looked at Xia Yuan who had fallen to the ground, and let out a shrill cry.

Hu Changdao hugged Xia Yuan in his arms, crying and shouting: "Battle Commander, Battalion Commander, wake up."

A soldier wiped away the tears from his face, tightened the wound on Xia Yuan's body with a bandage, then probed Xia Yuan's neck and breath, and shouted: "The battalion commander is still alive, the battalion commander is still alive, hurry up and send him to the battlefield! "

Hu Changdao put Xia Yuan on his back, turned around and said, "You guys hold your ground, I'll carry the battalion commander down!"

Hu Changdao ran along the ridge towards the tunnel. The soldiers who were organizing a counterattack saw Hu Changdao running down and quickly surrounded him. When they saw Xia Yuan covered in blood, they were startled. , get out of the way!!"

He ran all the way, surrounded by soldiers into the tunnel, and the eyes of the soldiers behind him were scarlet and bloodshot. When some soldiers saw the seriously injured Shangganling soldiers, tears flowed from their eyes immediately. The heroes who had fought in Shangganling for more than a month fell, as if a knife had been cut in their hearts.

For Hu Changdao, the moment Xia Yuan fell, the spiritual pillar in his heart also fell.

He rushed into the tunnel like crazy, and shouted in a hoarse voice: "Sanitary! Sanitation! Where is the sanitation!"

The movement alarmed the commander of the 106rd Battalion of the 3th Regiment who was discussing the battle plan in the tunnel. He ran out quickly, and when he saw Xia Yuan who was seriously injured and passed out, his expression froze, and he immediately pushed aside the soldiers beside him, Call the hygienist over.

Hu Changdao grasped Xia Yuan's handsome black palm with trembling hands. He grasped it hard, trembling all over, tears rolling down like a broken dam.

"Hygienist, how is the battalion commander?"

He asked in a trembling voice, not speaking smoothly.

The third battalion commander comforted Hu Changdao and said, "Battalion Commander Xia has survived the battle since the beginning of the battle, and it will be the same this time. He will be fine."

Hu Changdao's tears were still rolling down, he pressed his lips tightly, his face turned pale.

The hygienist checked Xia Yuan's injuries and said, "Battle Commander, Commander Xia's injuries are very serious, especially to the head. He needs to be sent to the hospital behind for treatment. Judging from the current conditions of the tunnel."

"Then send it to the rear, Li Shichang, you take a fighter from the combat team to escort Commander Xia!"

The third battalion commander quickly ordered, he looked at Xia Yuan lying in Hu Changdao's arms, and sighed in his heart: "What a good battalion commander."

From the start of the Shangganling battle to the present, Commander Xia led his men from Height 597.9 to Height 537.7. More and more stories about Commander Xia spread to the rear, especially the fact that the troops participating in the counterattack will meet Commander Xia again. Seeing with their own eyes the story of Camp Commander Xia's battle reported back to the rear, all the soldiers understood that the high ground with Commander Xia is indestructible and the enemy cannot attack, and the counterattack with Commander Xia's participation can always end quickly , He is like a torch that illuminates the hearts of the soldiers participating in the counterattack and guides them to a bright road.

Since Battalion Commander Xia came over to participate in the defense of the No. [-] position, the No. [-] position has been firmly in the hands of our army. Most of the wounded in the tunnel came down from the position. They told the battle stories of the Xia battalion commander. That worship comes from the heart.

The news that Battalion Commander Xia was seriously injured and unconscious soon spread to the tunnel. The wounded wanted to see Battalion Commander Xia even though they supported themselves.

Hu Changdao said tremblingly, "Third Battalion Commander, I want to be with the Battalion Commander."

The third battalion commander nodded.

The combat team set off soon, and they took turns carrying Xia Yuan down from Height 537.7, and soon arrived at the headquarters of the 106th Regiment in Wusheng Mountain. This is a man from Shandong, surnamed Zhao, who fought against Little Japan and Liberation, and made great military exploits.

Head Zhao was discussing the latest battle with the political commissar. Head Zhao was smoking a cigarette, looking at the model map of Shangganling 537.7 Highland, and said: "The foreign devils' offensive has weakened, it is not as fierce as before, and they are at the end of their rope. , It is estimated that it will not be long before this battle will end."

The political commissar nodded, with a smile on his face: "Since the battle of Shangganling started, the enemy's offensive has become more and more fierce day by day. After our army's artillery was in place, the third stage began, and the enemy's offensive was not as good as before. On the one hand, it is because It's winter, and on the other hand, the enemy has been dragged down by us."

At this time, there was a noisy sound from outside, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps coming in from the tunnel outside.

A correspondent hurried in, with red eyes, and said in a trembling voice: "Regimental Commander, Political Commissar, Battalion Commander Xia Xia was seriously injured and was sent down. Go and have a look."

The two were startled, and the political commissar hurriedly asked: "Captain Xia, is it Commander Xia Yuan?"

The correspondent nodded anxiously, his eyes were red and full of tears. Since the start of the Shangganling battle, Xia Yuan's heroic deeds have been spread among all armies and companies, especially when the third phase of the counterattack started. The No. [-] position, the No. [-] position, and the No. [-] position were smashed through, and they were called "unbeatable heroes" by the soldiers. When the soldiers gathered together to chat on weekdays, they talked more about the heroic deeds of Camp Commander Xia. I deeply admire the summer camp commander.

Many companies that did not participate in the mission of Shangganling have asked their superiors to fight. If they want to participate in the battle of Shangganling, they must become a glorious hero like Xia Yuan.

Almost the entire corps, when it comes to 'Shangganling God of War', everyone knows Xia Yuan.Not only ordinary soldiers worship Xia Yuan, but even some commanders worship Xia Yuan from the bottom of their hearts. They admire his fighting spirit and individual ability. Under his leadership, he insisted on turning the 597.9 Heights into what the enemy called a "devil's position." '.

However, the news of Xia Yuan's serious injury suddenly reached their ears this year. Commander Zhao and the political commissar all changed their expressions, and immediately asked where the battalion commander was.

When they came to the hospital at the back, they found that it was surrounded by soldiers. The inner three floors and the outer ones, in addition to the soldiers with guards, there were also many wounded soldiers. They all gathered in a tunnel, looking forward to it.
