We even found five or six Su-style Simonov anti-tank guns that were more than two meters long in the ammunition box.

Even I have seen anti-tank guns for the first time, let alone soldiers. Although recoilless guns and rocket launchers are new weapons transported from our country, they are no strangers to soldiers because they have seen them countless times on the battlefield where they are confronting the US military, and have suffered losses from these things, and have even seized and used them.

When they saw the US military use recoilless guns to fire shells at our positions from a distance; when they saw the US military use rocket launchers to fire incendiary bombs at our troops under the cover of tanks, they always gritted their teeth but could not do anything about it. Although sometimes they seized these enemy weapons, such as when snatching the enemy's machine gun positions, they would only throw away the ammunition after they were fired...

But this time, the soldiers no longer have to worry about this! Because they knew that our own motherland would also produce these weapons. The shells will be continuously transported from the rear supply line. Although there are not many, there are 30 recoil-free cannons, 300 shells, 20 rocket launchers, 50 armor-piercing shells, and fifty incendiary bombs, but we finally have a few weapons in our hands that can deal with enemy tanks and anti-aircraft machine guns at a long range!

Thinking about the past when fighting tanks, soldiers always had to use grenades, grenade launchers, explosives and other weapons to run to the tanks to explode and use human lives to pile them up. Now this situation has finally been alleviated.

The next morning, the soldiers who had just assigned these recoilless cannons and Bazuka rocket launchers spontaneously started training. They saw them holding weapons with their left and right aiming to make various shooting postures, occasionally stopping to listen to the soldiers who had used these weapons and talking about their experiences. They were so envious of other soldiers drooling around them...

"Captain, Commander!" While resting, a soldier excitedly ran to me with a recoilless cannon: "Captain, do you think this thing can hit tanks?"

"Yes! It's good to fight tanks and infantry!" I replied, "But comrades must be careful! When this recoilless cannon is fired, it will spray a long flame from behind, so before firing, you should check if there are people behind you to avoid accidentally hurting your comrades! Moreover, the flame of the recoilless cannon cannon can easily reveal its position. Remember to transfer the position after firing a shell!"

"Yes!" the soldier stood up and asked, "Captain, how far can this thing go?"

"It's a big sigh of relief, three thousand meters!" I was also a little hesitant about this question. After all, this is a modified weapon, and its range may not necessarily reach the range of American equipment.

"There are two or three thousand meters!" The soldier almost jumped up when he heard this: "The American's tank is still in close proximity? Let's shoot one at a time, and see how many tanks the American can have..."

"Then you have to hit it too!" I couldn't help but smile bitterly when I heard this, "If you can hit the enemy's tank a thousand meters away, I didn't say anything, our entire regiment of recoils will give you!"

"I, it's useless for me to ask for so many..." The soldier's face turned red after I said this, which made the onlookers laugh.

This also made me realize that although we have equipped long-range anti-tank weapons, and some soldiers have even used them a few times, the soldiers still have very little knowledge of these weapons. Now there is no extra ammunition at this time and they dare not conduct live-fire training. At that time, they are afraid that it will be difficult to play any role in the battlefield.

"Come! Gather!" Just as I was talking and laughing with the soldiers, a soldier suddenly ran out and shouted at the gathering while blowing the trumpet.

Seeing this, I was stunned. I was the leader of this regiment. Why didn’t I know anything if I had something to gather? If Jiang Chunzeng and the others had to notify me, they should tell me first! But after thinking about it, I quickly understood that it must be the one who was the new political commissar!

Political Commissar! He was the biggest when the gunshots were not heard, and he had the final say in this regiment! So I was thinking, if I took out my pistol and shot it in the sky now, would it be...

With a little boringness, he walked towards the gathering point with the crowd. As expected, it was Li Pinghe who was doing it. At this time, he was paced down a pine tree with his hands on his back. When he saw me, he walked up a few steps and said to me: "Captain Cui, I didn't see you in the regiment headquarters just now. I didn't have to hurry to tell you and summon the soldiers...

"If you want to have a meeting, just hold it! No need to ask me!" I responded angrily: "But you have to hurry up and gather so many soldiers together. If the enemy has several planes flying over or fire shells at us..."

"Well!" Li Pinghe seemed to have not thought of this, and his face changed.

I couldn't help but laugh in my heart. Although Li Pinghe had fought with the Kuomintang for several years, how could the Kuomintang's equipment back then be compared with the current Americans?

"Comrades!" Li Pinghe did not dare to be negligent when he heard this. Seeing that the soldiers were almost here, he shouted to the soldiers: "Comrades, today is the third National Day of the People's Republic of China. Two years ago, our great leader, Chairman Mao, announced to the world today that the People's Republic of China was established!"

"Long live the People's Republic of China!"

"Long live Chairman Mao!"

...

The soldiers all raised their fists and cheered.

I realized after listening to Li Pinghe's words - it turned out that today is National Day, and... I just discovered that it has only been two years since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Looking behind Li Pinghe, on a thick trunk of a larch on the sunny side, someone used a bayonet to carve a large picture of Tiananmen Square, with a few traditional Chinese characters inscribed: "Celebrating National Day". Then he also tried his best to inlaid the white jade watch with colorful stones, red walls, glazed tiles, red columns, red lanterns, national emblem, Chairman Mao, etc.

"Comrades!" Li Pinghe took a step to the side and pointed to the Tiananmen map and said to the soldiers: "On this great day of National Day, let us once again read the vows of the volunteer army to our motherland, to Tiananmen, and to the great leader Chairman Mao..."

As he said that, he clenched his fists seriously and raised his hand, taking the lead and said: "We are the loyal children of the Chinese people and an armed group that performs proletarian political tasks. In order to defend our fruits of victory, our great motherland, and our peace in the East and the world, we volunteer to assist the Korean people, completely eliminate the US imperial invaders, and liberate the entire North Korea. For this reason, we solemnly swore: First, we will resolutely execute orders, bravely, tenaciously, and alertly annihilate the enemy, and complete all combat tasks..."

Li Pinghe read a sentence, and the soldiers followed one sentence, but I guess the soldiers had already memorized these vows. Later, Li Pinghe didn't need to read it at all, and all the soldiers took the oath together. But I didn't know the content of this vow, and then I just opened my mouth and said awkwardly, which made me feel like I was just filling in the numbers.

"2. Resolutely implement policies, strictly observe the three major disciplines and eight points of attention, unite the Korean people, and protect the Korean people's every grass and tree. Third, carry forward class friendship, strengthen unity, carry forward the hard work style, and overcome all difficulties. Fourth, improve political vigilance and strictly observe military secrets. We must forge ahead bravely, win glory for the motherland, and make great contributions to the people. Encourage each other, supervise each other, and resolutely strive to realize the great tasks given to us by the motherland. I will take this oath."

I have to admit that I have made similar oaths in modern times. It seems that there have been two times in my impression. One was when elementary school was honored to join the Young Pioneers, and the other was when middle school was honored to join the League again. I had no chance to take the third oath in college...

The oath at that time always made me feel... creepy!

But now...

Looking at the soldiers' firm eyes, serious faces, straight waists, and listening to the soldiers' uniform and heart-like voices, I can only use the word "shock" to describe my current mood. Undoubtedly, what I see and hear now is the real oath!

"Comrades!" After taking the oath, Li Pinghe continued: "Today is the day when our Chinese nation announces to the whole world that we stand up. We must use our actions to tell the people of the motherland. We always stick to our oath and fight against the reactionaries in our posts! We must use victory to present a gift to the National Day and report to Chairman Mao!"

"Long live the People's Republic of China!"

"Long live Chairman Mao!"

The soldiers shouted tirelessly over and over again, and the shouts crossed the valley and broke through the sky. The soldiers stationed on other high grounds also responded one after another. In an instant, the fiery sunlight and under the maple leaves, a burst of cheers that were higher than a wave, and the soldiers' fighting will also become unprecedentedly high with the cheers.

This scene made me excited and I was deeply proud of being one of them, and proud of being a Chinese volunteer soldier!

"Woo..." Just as the shouts were still falling, the roar of shells sounded in the air. With a command, the soldiers quickly divided into several troops and drilled into the tunnel.

Our shouts finally alarmed the US military. Fortunately, our location was not far from the tunnel, and the soldiers were all well-trained. When they heard the sound of cannons, they lined up in an orderly manner into the tunnel, so they did not suffer much casualties. Only three or four soldiers came to the tunnel without rushing into the tunnel and were hit by shrapnel, and were also snatched into the tunnel by other soldiers.

At first I thought the US military was still shooting cold guns as usual, but after more than twenty minutes, there was no sound of guns, and then I gradually realized that the US military was about to start an attack. These Americans would choose the days, and when not to choose, they chose to launch an attack on our National Day. Perhaps they wanted to use this day to hit our morale! But they would never think that the volunteers rely on a spirit and courage to fight. First, they fought against Japan and then the Kuomintang. After more than a dozen years of war, they had already trained the volunteers to achieve resilience and endurance that was beyond ordinary people...

With a "bang!", a log on his head was suddenly shaken by a shell, and a soldier was smashed to death with blood splashed on the spot... Several soldiers beside him hurriedly moved the log off and dug out the soldier from the soil, and called a health officer to rescue him...

This is very normal for people like us who are used to hiding from the tunnel. As long as a soldier does not support the logs on his head and nail them tightly when building the tunnel, this situation is likely to happen, so I don’t take it seriously.

But Li Pinghe, who was sitting opposite me, was different. At this time, he was already sweating coldly, his chest was rising and falling. His eyes kept aiming at the logs on the top of the tunnel, and then at the other soldiers beside him...

Seeing this, I couldn't help but laugh. What's the use of fighting the Kuomintang for two years? I didn't avoid such a tunnel when I attacked the Kuomintang! I didn't have such a fierce and long bombing when I attacked the Kuomintang! If this guy thought that our current enemy was as easy to fight as the Kuomintang back then, then you were very wrong.

However, this kid really has a good idea of ​​doing ideological work. Thinking of the meeting that Li Pinghe had just held, it seemed that in just over ten minutes, the passion of the soldiers seemed to have pushed the passion of the soldiers to a climax. Anyway, I am the most afraid of meetings. If I don’t have him, I will save a lot of trouble in the future. And... it seems that what he said is right. When interrogating me, it was indeed his responsibility. My problem exists in fact. Even if he doesn’t have him, there will still be someone else to interrogate.

Thinking of this, I squatted up, took the kettle hanging around my waist and handed it to him. When he took the kettle, he realized that it was me. He was stunned and nodded to me to express his gratitude. Then he put the kettle to his mouth and took a few sips. After that, he took out the handkerchief and wiped his mouth...

Damn! I read that right! It's really a handkerchief. This guy doesn't seem to have fought for two years, and he came from a senior school! This guy is simply...ah! I don't know what to say about him.

"Long..." There was another roar, and the soil above my head fell from the gap between the logs. Li Pinghe raised his head nervously and looked up, his hands seemed to want to hug his head. But seeing that I was still motionless, sitting in front of me as steady as a mountain, my face turned red, and I quickly pretended to be thirsty, raised my head and took a few more sips, then turned on the lid of the kettle and handed it back to me.

I saw his lips moving. Although the sound of the cannon was very loud and he didn't hear what he was saying, I knew he was saying thank you and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There were very few people as polite and hygienic as him on the battlefield.

After spending nearly an hour with the sound of the deafening cannons, the outside world gradually calmed down. He led the soldiers out of the tunnel and saw that there were any fortifications! The trenches and bunkers were all flat, and only a few vague ditches could prove that they had existed. The trees, earth and stones were all fried into powder and mixed together. The entire position was as soft as the vegetable field that had just been turned over. Even the fortifications built on the back slope were the same...

By the way, this is not that the back-slope fortifications does not work. The high ground is too low and the slope is too small, which allows the enemy's shells to easily land on our back-slope fortifications. Seeing this, I couldn't help but complain secretly. The US military's attack has always been in coordination. Although the coastline here is farther away, the enemy's navy has no effect, but there are no trees and no cover. When the enemy's plane comes...

"Enter the position immediately to build fortifications!" I ordered helplessly. Although the fortifications seemed to be only waiting for the blown part when they were built, it would be worth it to be exchanged for some effort to earn a few lives.

"Yes!" the soldiers responded, and without saying a word, they crawled out of the tunnel and climbed to the top of the mountain, raised the engineer's shovel and dug.

The soil is soft and easy to dig, and it takes a prototype in a short while, but anyone knows that this is far from enough, because the soil is soft and easy to dig, which means that the greater the chance of the bullet penetrating it and hitting the soldiers.

Before the soldiers dug the trenches, there was a "rumbling" sound of tank motors coming from the position. I hurriedly pulled Li Pinghe, who was still standing in commanding, and lay in the trenches. The soldiers were all veterans who had fought with the Americans, and they were all covered in the trenches like me and continued to dig.

Looking at Li Pinghe's face with a puzzled expression, I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Political Commissar Li, this American is not as good as the Kuomintang. The Kuomintang's gun is not far from the gun. This American's anti-aircraft machine gun can be shot two or three thousand meters! Don't look at the enemy so far, if you hit this edge, you have become a sieve and haven't seen the shadow of the enemy yet..."

Before he finished speaking, the opposite side shot in pieces of bullets, which made Li Pinghe stunned.

Taking advantage of the enemy's gun break, I put on a rifle and looked at the enemy through the telescope, and couldn't help but say "Huh"!

"What's wrong?" Li Pinghe also curiously stretched out his telescope to look at the enemy. His face changed when he saw it, and he whispered: "So many heavy tanks..."

Upon hearing this, I almost laughed out loud: "Political Commissar Li, there are not many of these tanks, but there are only more than twenty, and most of them are Churchill-style infantry tanks. This is indeed a heavy-duty compared to the commonly used "Xiafei" tanks of the Kuomintang!"

Hearing this, Li Pinghe couldn't help but blush, and he pushed the glasses on his nose awkwardly and said, "Then you just..."

"The reason I was surprised just now..." I turned my eyes to the scope again and replied seriously: "That's because our enemy is the strongest British army on the Korean battlefield!"

Although I haven't seen the enemy yet, the "Churchill" infantry tanks and the "Captain Hundred-Man" heavy tanks have made me sure that they are the most difficult British army.
Chapter completed!
