Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 159
Sure enough, even under the extremely low temperature of minus 150 degrees at night and the harsh environment of ice and snow, the soldiers of the three companies with sharp knives, who were in high spirits, had already dug out a road with a length of about three hours. The trench is [-] meters high and about one meter deep.

Although, before the excavation, the goal set by the company commander Zhao Yifa was to let them dig out a 200-meter-long and one-meter-deep tunnel on the hillside occupied by their sharp knife company before twelve o'clock this night. the trenches.

In fact, at the time of this goal, the company commander Zhao Yifa already thought in his heart that it was impossible to achieve, but he still issued this goal to the volunteer soldiers of the whole company, which he thought was impossible to achieve.

This is mainly because in the view of company commander Zhao Yifa, time is tight and tasks are heavy, so first set a very difficult goal and let the soldiers implement it. Although it cannot be completed 50.00% in the end, as long as the original goal can be completed [-]%, he feels that the ultimate goal has been achieved.

And after about three hours of hard work, 75/[-] of the original planned goal has been completed. In the eyes of the company commander Zhao Yifa at this time, this has greatly exceeded his expected expectations.

After company commander Zhao Yifa stopped what he was doing, he was sweating profusely from the heat, and at this moment he took out the old pocket watch that was in his coat pocket, and the time displayed was 11:30 at night.

This also means that according to the combat mission issued by the superior, there is still about half an hour before the siege of Xiajieyu will start. If the exhausted soldiers continue to dig trenches, it is estimated that After the battle started, the body and hands would lose strength.

If this is the case, once there are US-South Korean coalition troops fleeing south from the military fortress of Xiajieyu, then even if they hide in this newly dug trench to block the attack, it is estimated that the soldiers will Those who have more than enough heart but not enough strength.

After thinking of this, the company commander Zhao Yifa immediately called the messenger and told him to continue digging the trenches. All the personnel hid in the trenches and rested in place to prepare for the battle in half an hour.

Of course, company commander Zhao Yifa asked the messenger to convey this order to the three platoon leaders Sun Lei, Liu Yiming, and Feng Pengju, and then asked the three platoon leaders to convey to the soldiers in their respective platoons that they should stop digging trenches and prepare for battle. The command.

After being notified by the messenger, Sun Lei, who was already out of breath, immediately shoveled the engineer in his hand with a "bang", discarded it aside, rolled up the sleeves of his arms, and pointed at the A row of volunteer soldiers who were desperately digging trenches shouted loudly: "Comrades, the latest order issued by the company commander just now tells us to stop digging the outer trenches and hide in the newly dug trenches." Continue to rest in the trenches and prepare for battle.

"I want to tell you now that in about half an hour, our volunteer army will soon begin to besiege the US-South Korean coalition forces stationed in the military fortress in Xiajieyu. Wait a minute, we can stay in the trenches , to face and stop the enemy fleeing southward with ease."

For the exhausted volunteer soldiers, they should be grateful for the timely order issued by the company commander Zhao Yifa, but the problem is that the volunteer soldiers in the three companies and one row of the sharp knife company are assigned the task of digging trenches with a length of 60 meters , Only 50 meters have been completed now, and the trenches that are ten meters shorter than the originally assigned task have not yet been excavated.

Not only the first row of volunteer soldiers failed to complete the task of digging the length of the trench, including the second and third rows, as well as the cooking squad, but the length of the trench they had not completed was several meters longer than that of the first row.

"Platoon leader, the trenches that are ten meters short of the task assigned by our platoon have not been dug. Should we stop digging like this?" Wang Erkui, a volunteer soldier in a row of three companies with sharp knives, walked up to the platoon leader Sun Lei, some unwilling to ask.

As soon as Wang Erkui's voice fell, many volunteer soldiers nearby responded one after another: "Yes, yes, platoon leader, we are only ten meters away. If we give us another half an hour It is definitely possible to complete the task within the given time, so why is it suddenly not allowed to dig.

"After we have dug the ten-meter-long trench, it will not be too late to rest on the spot and face the enemy fleeing from the north. If our platoon fails to complete the task, if we distribute the food dropped by the U.S. military planes in the future, it will not be too late Wouldn't it reduce a lot?"

At first, Sun Lei still didn't understand why the soldiers in the platoon expressed their intention to continue digging trenches with a length of ten meters. Now after hearing what the soldiers said, he suddenly realized that they Still thinking about the food thrown by the US military plane.

If he followed his straightforward style, it is estimated that at this time, Sun Lei would no longer hide anything from the volunteer soldiers in the row, but would tell them the truth of the matter at this time.

However, when Sun Lei saw the yearning eyes of the volunteer soldiers surrounding him, he felt that if he really did this, it would be too cruel, and it would probably lead to a low morale. The initial blockade was extremely unfavorable.

After thinking of this, Sun Lei quickly comforted him: "Comrades, don't worry, even if we have not dug the trenches that are still ten meters long, we will not give less to us when we distribute food to the US military planes." The platoon, our entire platoon, and even our comrades in the entire company are equally distributed. I am here to assure everyone, take your stingy heart into your stomach, and don’t have any worries about this matter.”

After listening to Sun Lei's assurance, the soldiers in the row dispelled their doubts.Of course, the soldiers in the second and third platoons of the Sharp Knife Company and the cooking squad also received similar guarantees, so the big guys stopped what they were doing and hid in the trenches to rest on the spot.

I saw the volunteer soldiers from the third company of the Sharp Knife Company jumped into the trenches that had just been dug, and all of them were so tired that they were lying on the two walls of the trenches and on the aisles. They were all panting heavily.

It can be seen that in the past three hours just now, the volunteer soldiers of the three companies with sharp knives really dragged their exhausted bodies with their super perseverance, will, and hard-working spirit. It is hard to dig a trench with a length of about 150 meters in the freezing weather and on this snow-covered hillside.
