Chapter 161 Misunderstanding
"Kill!" The shouting of killing was not loud, because there were only more than 100 volunteer soldiers. It is said that more than 100 volunteer soldiers rushed towards the more than 40 US logistics units hiding in tents. It was not difficult to wipe out the US military team. But the result was not like this. In the end, more than a dozen US soldiers escaped almost under the eyelids and guns of the volunteers. The reason is very simple, because the soldiers intentionally let them go.
In order to ask them to go back and report, there were only more than one hundred volunteers attacking them, rather than a whole division.
Although the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions were not dense, and it lasted not long. However, the battle ended in more than ten minutes. However, it seemed particularly abrupt in the dark night. In an instant, many searchlights shone in this direction on the surrounding hills. They looked like hungry wolves awakened, staring at us with cold eyes. But because these searchlights were too far from our location, they did not play any role.
"Operation!" Seeing that the US military had been repelled by Commander Xu and others, with Commander Pang's order, the volunteer soldiers of the entire division quickly jumped out of the hidden place, and they all walked across the road like flexible raccoon cats quickly and silently, and then disappeared into the forest opposite.
When I ran across the road, I couldn't help but look back at the company of Xu An, who was still waiting for the arrival of the US reinforcements. Some were busy building sandbags to build simple fortifications; some were busy getting familiar with the rifles that had just been seized; some were collecting guns and ammunition discarded by the US military; some were watching our team that was surging forward like a tide, and even waved at us. I saw reluctance in their eyes, but at the same time I saw resoluteness...
The troops smoothly crossed the highway and walked on another mountain road, but before we could go far, there was a burst of dense guns and cannons coming from behind. I had the desire to stop and look back, but I soon found that I could not do this. Because the mountain road was narrow, I would probably block the way of the soldiers following behind me as soon as I stopped. At this time, it was the critical bald man who quickly evacuated, so I had to suppress this desire. The soldiers at this moment must be quite as happy as me! This can be seen from the slowdown of the team's advance, so Commander Zheng kept saying "Continue to move forward, don't look back!"
The gunshots are getting farther and farther away from us, and finally nothing can be heard. I don’t know if this is because we have gone far away and can’t hear the gunshots, or because the US military has ended the battle, I hope the former more.
In the volunteer army, this kind of spirit of sacrificing the self and preserving the self has long become a common phenomenon and has always implemented the entire Korean battlefield. From the time the volunteer army enters North Korea, once a soldier is discovered by an enemy plane during the march, he must stand still and wait for the enemy to bombard the whereabouts to avoid exposing the whereabouts of the large army. It is common for us to use small troops to attract the enemy's firepower or cover the retreat of the large army, and then Huang Jiguang blocks the gun hole and Qiu Shaoyun is lying in the fire without moving... These are all true portrayals of the heroic battles of the volunteer army soldiers!
Some people think this is a manifestation of the Chinese leadership not paying attention to the lives of soldiers. It is not surprising that the US military will think so, because they put life first, and they will never understand the tradition of Chinese people's honor and belief above life; they cannot believe that the courage to sacrifice Chinese soldiers is out of voluntary rather than order.
But as a Chinese, I also have this view, which makes me unable to understand. In modern times, I have seen many Chinese people criticize the spirit of "sacrificing the ego and preserving the big self" as the lack of human nature, not paying attention to the lives of soldiers, and even using words such as nausea and vomiting.
Although I knew they were wrong, I could never find the right words to fight back. But now, I truly realized how ignorant these people are. Because they didn’t know that Chinese soldiers used this spirit to drive away the Japanese, defeat the Kuomintang, and even defeated the US military with weapons and equipment that exceeded our generations. It was with this spirit of sacrifice that Chinese soldiers saved more soldiers, and at the same time indirectly defended their motherland and their people, but what they didn’t expect was that some of the people they defended began to curse and criticize them in a blink of an eye...
Walking on the mountain road with deeper steps and shallower steps, I couldn't help but think in my heart. It's no wonder that Lu Xun gave up the medicine and followed the literature, because he understood that healing the body of the Chinese people and making the body strong does not make a nation strong. To make a nation awaken and stand up, it is more important to save their souls.
"It seems that your plan is very successful!" At some point, Captain Pang walked to me and said, "The enemy did not catch up, and the reconnaissance plane did not make any big moves!"
"Yeah!" I nodded, but I was not excited about my success. After all, it was exchanged for the lives of more than a hundred volunteer soldiers.
"I've been wondering..." Captain Pang lowered his voice around me intentionally or unintentionally and said, "How come the orders of the military headquarters are so abnormal this time? In the past, the commands of the military headquarters always made people feel that they were not clear about the actual situation and were blindly commanded. However, this time, although there were only a few short sentences, each sentence contained a deep machine, and it seemed that they had a deep understanding of the arrangement and reaction of the US military. It was hard for me to believe that this was the order of the military headquarters who did not understand the actual situation..."
"Um!" I was shocked when I heard this. Commander Pang was still suspicious of the telegram, so he hurriedly replied: "There is a saying that a wise man will make mistakes in a thousand worries, right? Commander Zheng said it well! We must believe in the orders of our superiors and the commands of our superiors..."
"You kid! Don't do this with me!" Hearing the words, Commander Pang couldn't help but smile and patted my head: "To be honest, your kid is full of strange ideas. If you think of the breakthrough plan in that telegram, I would still believe it, but the military... this is so strange!"
"Captain Pang, you are really good at joking!" I couldn't help but feel scared and let out a cold sweat when I heard this, and hurriedly laughed dryly from the side: "I, I... don't have that... that ability..."
"I know it's not you, why are you nervous?" Captain Pang said with some amusement, "Besides, even if you think of it, there is no way to use telegrams to order Commander Zheng, right?"
"Just... that's it!" I quickly responded.
It was not until Captain Pang left that I was worried in secret, and I thought for sure that Captain Pang would think so, otherwise if this was discovered, my plan would die and my life would be lost.
His head was thinking randomly, and his feet were mechanically following the troops forward. Unconsciously, the sky gradually turned pale. In order not to be discovered by the enemy's plane, the soldiers hid in the forest. But soon the soldiers discovered something very distressing, that is, although the soldiers brought a lot of food from Maping, they did not dare to make a fire and cook because they were worried that the enemy would find their whereabouts.
If we have a small number of people, we can dig a cave to cook and use the cave to spread the smoke in the forest. But now our team has thousands of people. If we start cooking, then the American plane will soon find that there is a lot of smoke in the mountain...
So the soldiers had to grab a few handfuls of raw rice and threw it into their mouths for a while. I couldn't stand it hungry. After trying to chew it a few times, I felt strange that how the food was cooked so much that it tasted so badly the undercooked ones. And after biting a few times, my mouth was sore, so I simply swallowed a handful of rice and a few sips of water, then leaned against a tree trunk and fell asleep in a daze.
In the next few days, I was rushing out during the day and night. Because I couldn't eat cooked food, many soldiers couldn't stand it, were tired and hungry and fainted on the road.
On the fourth day, just when I was dizzy and felt a little exhausted, a light sound came from beside me to stop.
"What's wrong?" The warrior behind me asked in confusion.
"Nothing!" I responded and continued to walk forward, but when I turned around a foot of the mountain, I waved to Huzi. Huzi nodded understandingly, and soon followed me out of the team and crawled into the woods.
He ran carefully into the deep woods for a while and said softly to Huzi: "There are people in the forest ahead, and they are caught alive!"
"Yes!" Hu Zi responded and surrounded the forest with me one by one. At this time, I realized that it was actually very difficult to walk in the forest without making a sound, because there were dead branches everywhere. If you accidentally cut one, the enemy would realize your existence. So I had to explore the ground gently like stepping on a mine, and then take a step.
Perhaps because I knew the position of this enemy hidden in the dark, I first touched the position of the enemy in front of Hu Zi, and saw a black shadow with disguise stuck all over my body lying quietly in a grass below me, with a gun in my hand. If it weren't for the sound I heard before, I wouldn't have found him.
At this moment, a sudden sound of a broken branch came from the right, which aroused his alertness. Just as he turned around and was about to escape, I jumped over and pushed him under my body, took out the pistol from my waist and pressed it against his forehead, and shouted: "Don't move!"
But this guy is not bad either. I pressed one hand behind him and couldn't move. The other hand pulled out a grenade and opened his mouth and was about to bite the string...
I was about to knock him out with the handle of the gun, but a flash of inspiration in my head - grenade! This thing is only available in the Volunteer Army and the People's Army, and the United Nations Army uses grenades...
