Chapter 25: Pursue the Victory
Chapter 25: Taking advantage of the victory and chasing
The gunshots in front gradually became sparse, and the shouts of killing were also farther south. It was probably because the puppet army could not resist and began to retreat. This was expected. If it was during the day, the puppet army's full American equipment could still take advantage of it, but on this night they could only fight against the volunteers. With their qualities, how could they compete with the volunteers who had fought a strong battle?
"What's wrong?" I looked at the old squad leader and others tidying up their clothes at the same time, and asked in confusion: "I'm going to set out again? Didn't I receive the order?"
"Platform Commander Cui!" The old squad leader laughed and said, "You don't understand our Captain Chu's bad temper. Follow him, don't be afraid of not fighting."
"That's it!" Zhao Yongxin also smiled and said, "If we talk about our Captain Chu, it's like Zhou Bapi. It's called "sucking needles whenever we can get a shot."
"Comrades!" Hu Zi swallowed and shouted: "I haven't eaten enough American beef yet, let's grab the canned food!"
As expected by the old squad leader and others, Hu Zi's voice came from outside the door before he finished speaking...
"Comrades!" When I was so embarrassed that I had put my equipment into the list, Captain Chu had already started to speak.
"Comrades!" Perhaps because of the pain, Commander Chu's voice was not loud, but he was unquestionably determined: "Our unit suffered a lot of casualties in this battle, but we successfully prevented the retreat of the enemy's sixth division, creating conditions for our army to encircle and annihilate the sixth division, and telling comrades good news that the sixth division has been beaten by our army!"
"Okay, okay..." The warrior burst into cheers.
"Military information is urgent, I'll tell you a long story." After pausing for a while, Commander Chu continued: "Because my regiment reduced the number of troops, the division headquarters asked us to repair it on the spot, but I refused. Do you know which unit the puppet army in Jiang is? Do you know which unit the puppet army in Jiang is? It's the puppet eighth division, the puppet eighth division that caused our regiment to suffer heavy losses. Can we let them go?"
"No, no!"
Captain Chu blushed and raised his fists and said loudly: "When we were bleeding and sweating, we were pushing forward. Now is the time to capture the puppet army prisoners. Can we fall behind?"
"No, no..." the soldiers yelled loudly.
"Okay, send the bullet down and set off!"
I was so bitter. Even if I was reluctant and didn't want to fight, my faint voice was still drowned in the high morale of my comrades...
After receiving three magazines from the company commander, a baton set out with the troops. At this time, the bullets in the rear had not yet been transported, and the 38th hoods in the hands of the soldiers were facing the embarrassing situation of having guns but no bullets, and they were about to pursue the puppet Eighth Division in South Korea. So, as a last resort, many people replaced the m1 rifle that had just been seized from the puppet army.
Now, even Hu Zi has changed into it.
However, he was not as excited as other comrades. Instead, he complained unhappily: "I'm used to using the 38th hood, it's really awkward to use this gun!"
"Boy!" He seemed to suddenly remember something, and a pair of tiger eyes glared at me and shouted: "How can you use any gun? One is more accurate than the other..."
"I...I don't know either!" Actually, I was wondering myself, I had never played guns before, so why would I hit wherever I wanted?
I haven't eaten for a few days. When I heard that I had eaten canned food, I now recalled the fragrance of beef. Instead, I felt even hungry. I was so hungry that I looked like I was floating on the ground when I walked.
It floated across Jiulong River, and the scene became chaotic. The night was full of volunteer soldiers running back and forth. From time to time, a few puppet troops who were running and fainted rushed to the front. After seeing clearly that we were volunteers, they obediently raised their hands and handed over.
Just a moment, there were two more guns on Hu Zi's back, and the guy was still muttering: "Why are there no cans on the ball?"
I was sweating. These puppet troops who thought the equipment was too heavy and could not run fast were good enough to carry guns, but which one would carry canned food!
"Huh? Our army?" The old squad leader exclaimed, and then we realized that we had separated from the regiment headquarters. There were only the old squad leader, Hu Zi, and five soldiers whose names were indescribable.
"As far as I say, the army must be running ahead." Hu Zi might be so hungry that he pointed to a path ahead and said, "Isn't that a lot of footprints? We can't fall behind. If we slow down, all the cans will be snatched away!"
After saying that, we couldn't wait to run towards the path. In a helpless manner, we had to follow us, but unexpectedly, we made a contribution to this run!
We were running forward with eight people. We were tired and hungry and we were reluctant to think more. We only knew how many hours we had to do the mechanical movements of lifting our legs and stepping. We were not sure how long we had been running. The more we ran, the fewer people were, and the more we ran, the more we felt something was wrong. At this time, an explosion suddenly came from the front, which made us stop at the same time.
"Maybe I've encountered the puppet army." The old squad leader lowered his voice and asked me, "We may be separated from the army, Platoon Commander Cui, what should we do?"
I was stunned when I heard this, and then I realized that I was the biggest "official" among the eight people and their leader. I smiled bitterly in my heart. A few days ago, I was still a rookie in their eyes, so I could give orders to them now. Looking at Hu Zi again, don’t look at him who usually calls me “boy” and “boy”, but when something really happened, I still looked at me seriously and waited for me to give orders.
"Go up and see the situation first." I thought about it, lowered my voice and said, "Be careful to keep it hidden and try not to expose myself."
"Yes!" the soldiers responded quietly, following me silently and leaned back toward the explosion.
The military forces of different countries have different regulations on military cadres. Most troops adopt regulations to protect military cadres because they think that military cadres are the core of a team and the backbone of leading decision-making, so they encourage soldiers to protect their superiors on the battlefield.
However, the Volunteer Army is different. The equipment of the Volunteer Army is relatively backward, and the victory in combat is largely due to the courage of the soldiers and the morale of the soldiers. Military cadres rushing in front of the soldiers can undoubtedly greatly improve the morale and courage of the soldiers. Therefore, the Volunteer Army stipulates that officers below the battalion level must rush in front of the soldiers.
At this time, as a platoon leader, I was the first in the first place. But don’t say that, I have never been a leader as a reporter in modern times. At this time, I became a leader. Although I only had eight leaders, it was really satisfying!
Walking forward carefully along the snow covered with footprints, turning two small turns and hiding under a big tree, slowly poking out his head and seeing it, the scene in front of us really scared us...
At least 200 puppet soldiers were busy in a village, burning documents, moving things, and there were several howitzers with black smoke coming from the side. The explosion just now must be the sound of them blowing up the cannons.
