Anti-US and Aid Korea's Sharp Knife Company

Chapter 179
When Sun Lei heard the slight roar of the plane, the first thing he thought of was not that it might be a U.S. military transport plane going to Xiajieyu to deliver food, but that it was very likely to be a U.S. fighter jet performing combat missions at night. Suddenly, It aroused his high vigilance.

Different from his highly sensitive reaction, the other volunteer soldiers in a row and two squads who were staying in the trench to carry out the excavation task all looked weak and were still working slowly. I was working, as if I didn't hear the roar of the plane coming from the distance on the south side of the hillside.

After arousing Sun Lei's high vigilance, he took the military telescope in his hand and observed the night sky on the south side of the hillside, but he didn't see anything. The night sky was pitch black. Neither the stars nor the moon.

In this regard, Sun Lei secretly thought that nine out of ten it was because the US military plane flying from south to north was far away from the hillside where they were, and the military telescope he held in his hand could not observe such a long distance. , which was not found.

After waiting for a full 5 minutes, the roar of the plane became louder and louder. Sun Lei once again put away the military binoculars and looked in the sky in the direction of the sound from the south side of the hillside.

This time, he really saw the true face of the U.S. military aircraft. He really didn't know it. He was startled when he saw it. It didn't make Sun Lei feel frightened at this time, but felt a bit of sudden surprise.

Immediately, Sun Lei, who was still in a state of high tension just now, breathed a sigh of relief, because at this time, he was about five miles away from the hillside where he was.

And this U.S. military aircraft that came from south to north is not a fighter jet in terms of model and size, but a transport aircraft with a much larger fuselage. There is and only such a U.S. military transport aircraft. Fighter fighters protect and accompany the left and right.

What makes Sun Lei even more happy at this time is that this US military transport plane flying from south to north is only a few hundred meters above the ground, and it is not flying at high altitude.

Because of this, he can observe through the military telescope in his hand and find that the US military transport plane flying only a few hundred meters above the ground at this time is like a big bird flying in the night sky, flickering in the darkness. With a dazzling light.

After discovering this situation, Sun Lei paused for about ten seconds. He quickly put away the military binoculars in his hand, and looked at the sharp knives surrounding him in succession. The volunteer soldiers of the second squad gave orders in a strong voice: "Now, comrades, stop what you are doing, and from now on, we don't have to dig trenches anymore.

"At the same time, the comrades in the other squads in our row don't need to continue to reinforce the air-raid shelter. Everyone, listen carefully, if you hear the roar of the plane coming from the south side of the hillside."

As soon as Sun Lei gave the order to stop digging the trenches, the volunteer soldiers of the first and second squads, who were already a little physically exhausted, all stopped their work and sat down on the aisle of the trench.

After the soldiers of these two squads heard the second half of what Sun Lei said, they all listened very carefully, and sure enough, they heard the roar of an airplane, and they all talked to the platoon leader. The eldest Sun Lei said he heard it.

Although many of these volunteer soldiers are from the countryside and have not experienced the War of Resistance Against Japan and the War of Liberation, they have seen the power of US military aircraft within a few days of coming to the Korean battlefield. Naturally, everyone could hear the roar of the plane, and many soldiers had expressions of fear on their cheeks at this time.

After hearing the answers from the soldiers of these two squads, Sun Lei immediately comforted them: "Comrades, don't worry, this time we heard the roar of US military planes, It was not sent out by U.S. fighter jets, but a U.S. military transport plane that was flown from the south, which did not pose any threat to us at all.

"Moreover, I dare to assure my comrades that this US military transport plane that is about to fly over the hillside where we are located will most likely go to the military fortress of Xiajieyuli, which is five kilometers north, to give the US troops stationed inside The Korean Allied Forces delivered airdropped supplies."

After saying this, Sun Lei paused for a few seconds. He saw the soldier with a terrified expression on his cheek, but now he changed his expression of surprise. Then he changed the subject and continued to ask : "Comrades, tell me, are we going to ask this US military transport plane for food this time?"

As soon as Sun Lei's words fell, the soldiers of the two squads, who were sitting paralyzed on the ground of the trench aisle on the left and right sides, all replied in unison: "Yes! Yes! Yes!"

As the saying goes: Say important things three times!

In this regard, Sun Lei ordered at this time: "Okay, I will order you to find the comrades in the cooking team as quickly as possible, and go to the edge of the large pine forest to the south of our trench. Some dry pine branches, light a few fires, and I'll have a way to get the pilots flying the US military transport plane to drop food for us."

Just now, the soldiers of the two squads who were in urgent need of digging trenches were still weak. Who knew that in just a few minutes, they were all full of energy, as if they had been beaten with chicken blood.

I saw them spit out a word loudly from their mouths, and replied: "Okay!"

The soldiers of the two squads who had finished answering got up from the ground very quickly. The first squad leader rushed to the cooking squad to find someone, and the second squad leader led the others out of the trench, and ran to the camp like a gallop. The large pine forest more than 200 meters to the south.

"Platoon leader, all the soldiers from the first and second squads have gone to the pine forest to start a fire, so what are our squads doing?" Sun Lei asked.

Only at this time did Sun Lei realize that a row of soldiers from the other three squads and several machine gun teams under his leadership had all come out of the air-raid shelter and gathered in front of him, looking at him with longing eyes.

After thinking for a few seconds, Sun Lei issued another order to them: "Well, I also order you now, and you all rush to the pine forest in the south, and gather pine branches to make a fire with the soldiers of the first and second squads. .”

After Dawan gave this order, the more than 30 soldiers standing in front of him dragged their exhausted bodies, but smiled on their cheeks, climbed out of the trench, and followed the first and second squads walking in front. The soldiers rushed to the large pine forest in the south, running on the snowy ground as if they were oiling their feet, and they ran quite fast.
