Zhu Tian: Beginning to Cross the Changjin Lake

Chapter 39 We are in big trouble!
Lieutenant Hall and his soldiers squatted obediently in the snow. After a while, their feet became numb.

Seeing that these volunteer soldiers were quite friendly, the old guy became bolder.

Lieutenant Hall stood up carefully, raised his hands, and said, "I demand to be treated like an officer!"

Seeing the old man suddenly stand up, the volunteer soldiers next to him immediately became alert and pointed the black muzzles of their guns directly at Lieutenant Hall.

"Behave yourself! Get down!"

The two of them couldn't speak the same language and had no idea what the other was saying.

Lieutenant Hall tried to explain a few words, but it was of no use at all. In the end, he could only squat down obediently.

A soldier nearby said, "Sir, they don't understand what we are saying at all?"

Lieutenant Hall frowned and said, "I clearly heard them speaking English just now. I thought they could understand me."

A soldier explained: "Maybe they only know those two simple sentences! And they are not standard, and I don't know who they learned them from."

Lieutenant Hall frowned and said, "It's really strange that they have learned to surrender their weapons without being killed."

"Can you speak their language?"

A soldier replied: "I did learn a few words of Korean before coming here, but they don't seem to understand it. It seems that they are the Northern Dynasty army."

Lieutenant Hall said: "It was obvious that they were Chinese."

"What Korean language are you learning?"

The soldier replied: "Only two things: don't kill me, please help me!"

"If I am surrounded by enemies, I will say don't kill me. If I need help from friendly forces, I will say help me."

Lieutenant Hall said helplessly: "Okay! You can see it! The first foreign language we learn is to save our lives, but what are they learning?"

"Surrender your weapons and you will not be killed! Stop, don't move!"

The American soldier argued: "Maybe they would also say in English, don't kill me, I surrender or something like that."

"After all, these words can save lives at critical moments."

Lieutenant Hall rolled his eyes and said, "Come on! When they were holding grenades and wanted to die with us, did they think about saving their lives?"

"These are just a bunch of lunatics!"

"Fighting a group of lunatics like this is the stupidest decision we have ever made."

A soldier said: "But we don't intend to fight them. We are here to fight the Northern Dynasty people."

Lieutenant Hall sighed and said, "But now that they have joined the war, I think we should be in big trouble."

One soldier said: "We are going to be sent to a prisoner-of-war camp soon. This is really a big problem, and I suspect they may kill us."

Lieutenant Hall said angrily: "Shut up your crow mouth."

He Changgui glanced at the group of prisoners and couldn't help asking, "What are these foreign devils talking about?"

Liu Zhiyi shook his head and said, "I don't understand. They are speaking bird language. Who knows what they are saying?"

"I guess they may be regretting it. If they had known that our commando team only had five people, they should have resisted."

Another soldier said: "These guys didn't dare to resist. They are all afraid of death. They just raised their hands without hesitation."

"I feel like these guys are more afraid of death than Chiang Kai-shek's army."

He Changgui glanced at Lieutenant Hall and the others, and said with disdain: "They all look tall and strong, but they are all a bunch of cowards."

At this moment, Zhang Xiaoshan ran over and said, "Deputy Company Commander, the Company Commander ordered you to build a defensive position on the mountain and wait for orders."

He Changgui asked, "Aren't the company commander and his men going up the mountain?"

Zhang Xiaoshan replied: "The company commander said that the terrain on the mountain is limited, and the enemy has heavy artillery units. It is too dangerous to deploy all the troops on the mountain." "The company commander reminds you to be prepared for artillery defense."

He Changgui glanced down the mountain and saw Wu Qianli arranging other soldiers to build a blocking position at the foot of the mountain.

"understood!"

He Changgui nodded and said, "We have seized some food on the mountain. I will send three people to take it down with you and share it with the soldiers."

Zhang Xiaoshan was overjoyed when he heard this.

Li Guotao carried several rifles, his body was covered with grenades, and he held a large bag of ammunition in his arms. This time, the Seventh Company defeated the enemy and seized a lot of spoils.

But Li Guotao felt a little complaining in his heart.

"These foreign devils are too damn hard to resist. They run faster than rabbits."

"If they don't run, I guess none of them will be able to escape, and then I can kill a few more enemies."

In the battle just now, Li Guotao killed eight enemies with his superb marksmanship, and was rewarded with more than a thousand points. For Li Guotao, these are his biggest gains.

So Li Guotao now only hopes to kill a few more enemies on the battlefield.

Hearing the increasingly frequent gunfire coming from afar, Li Guotao judged that the main force had already been fully deployed in the counterattack.

But tonight, the main attack is still on the enemy's outer defense line.

Judging from the current situation, there will be no general attack on Xinxingli, at least for the time being.

The order received by Unit 1286 was to launch a surprise attack on Hill and then hold on to the spot and wait for support.

So Li Guotao speculated that the enemy might launch a counterattack during this period of time.

After all, Hill 1286 is also a crucial commanding height for the enemies in Xinxing.

Wu Qianli, Mei Shengleigong and others were busy setting up blocking positions.

The soldiers of the Seventh Company dispersed and seized all the advantageous terrain in the vicinity to build defensive positions.

Although in the previous battles, the enemy was vulnerable and could even be said to have collapsed at the first blow.

However, Wu Qianli did not dare to underestimate these enemies. If the enemy reacted quickly and sent out their main force to counterattack, they might not be able to hold out for long with only a company of troops.

So what Wu Qianli can do now is to make the best use of the terrain and hold out for a while longer. Only by holding out until reinforcements arrive can he win.

Of course, in this process, we must naturally try to minimize losses as much as possible.

Wu Qianli shouted loudly: "Yu Congrong, move that heavy machine gun over there and be careful to hide it."

"Yes!"

Yu Congrong responded quickly, and then took a few people to move away the M2 large-caliber heavy machine gun that had just been seized.

Meisheng came over and said, "Thunder God is leading the artillery platoon up the mountain."

Wu Qianli nodded slightly. Lei Gong had rich combat experience and his command ability was no worse than his, so he didn't need to worry too much.

Mei Sheng smiled and said, "These foreign devils are very generous. They seized a lot of good things this time."

"Even if the enemy counterattacks, we are not afraid."

Wu Qianli asked: "How long will it take for the reinforcements to arrive?"

Mei Sheng replied: "Not sure yet, it shouldn't take too long."

"We have sent out a signal, and our superiors are aware that we have captured Hill 1286."
