The motor sounded, and more than a dozen Sherman and Pershing tanks lined up on the open ground in front, slowly covering the infantry behind.

The US military's offense is always led by tanks, and they seem to use tanks as a moving trenches. In fact, this kind of combat method is indeed very effective for volunteers who lack anti-tank weapons, because they can always easily advance to the foot of the mountain until the tanks can no longer drive, and we are always helpless with them, and...

With a "boom!", the enemy's tanks fired. Not only the enemy's tanks, but also many American soldiers holding recoilless cannons behind the tanks, and the Bazukka rocket launcher kept rushing towards our position. In an instant, the explosion sounded again, and the vibrations on the ground continued, and the soil and gravel on their heads fell down, making the already crumbling tunnel even more dangerous.

What made the soldiers even more helpless was that the US Bazuka rocket launcher could fire incendiary bombs. This time the US military had made sufficient preparations. They must have spent a while to mark the location of our tunnel on the map. At this time, they used the incendiary bombs to blast at our tunnel entrances, and a raging fire broke out in front of each tunnel entrance.

"Teng!" Another wave of heat surged in. Two volunteer soldiers stationed at the entrance of the tunnel did not rush to dodge. They were lit by the flames that were pouring in. In an instant, the screams filled the entire tunnel. The soldiers beside them hurriedly used quilts and mud to slap the two soldiers who were on fire again and covered them again. It took a while before the fire was put out. But at this time the two soldiers were already dying.

Looking at the two soldiers who were burned to the point of being vaguely still emitting burning smells around with green smoke, Zhang Mingxue and Xu Yongwei couldn't help but turn around and couldn't bear to look at it again. Even though they had experienced the Liberation War, they had never seen such tragic scenes of sacrifice under the burning bomb.

These are exactly what I want to say. The fortifications on the slope are facing the US military, like targets exposed to the US military, allowing them to practice gunfire, and even tunnels are no exception. However, we are helpless against them because the enemy has the cover of tanks, and we cannot even shoot at them. Because the tunnel entrance without collapse is also ignited at this time, and we cannot shoot at the enemy through these beating flames...

"The whole army retreated!" Thinking of this, I immediately ordered: "There are all, and the reverse slope fortifications will be withdrawn from the passage!"

"Yes!" The soldiers didn't say anything or ask anything, even the battalion commander Hu Biao. Without saying a word, he immediately executed my order and lined up to drill into the passage in an orderly manner.

The soldiers' reaction was beyond my expectations. Although it was not the first time for me to use the reverse slope fortification to attack the US military, it was the first time for these soldiers of the 538th Regiment. This time I gave orders to them to retreat, and I always thought they would have some opinions or questions to ask, but they all said nothing... I kept the answer I had prepared long ago in my heart, and I was so bored now!

Alas! It’s not a good thing that the quality of this unit is so good! Isn’t this? No one cooperated with me to join me in the next song...

With a little depressedness, the soldiers drilled into the passage, followed by US tanks, machine guns and various weapons. The sound of gunfire, the sound of gunfire, and the sound of tunnel collapse.

After walking in the dark tunnel for a while, the sound behind it became weaker and weaker. In the end, only the breathing of soldiers and the "bangji" sound of feet stepping on the mud. So I was thinking in my heart that the US military did not see us running out of the tunnel, and must have thought we were all killed in the tunnel. This time, I wondered how many enemies the US military would kill with their credit!

To say that the number of casualties on both sides seen in modern data and the data counted by the two sides of the warring parties is very different, it cannot be said that it is all intentional exaggerating the number of deaths on the other side. It is really difficult to count the number of deaths on this battlefield, and basically there is no accuracy.

However, after a while, the soldiers drilled out of the passage and entered the reverse slope tunnel. They walked out of the tunnel and looked at the reverse slope fortification. The soldiers had already prepared for combat in the fortifications in the rain.

Although this is the first time for the soldiers to use the back slope to fight, it is not the case for me. With the experience on the battlefield in the previous few times, this time I made some corresponding improvements to the back slope fortifications. For example, the protruding parts that block the soldiers' shooting on the top of the mountain will be manually flattened; for example, in order to facilitate the defense of the ridgeline, we artificially shoveled a cliff on one side of the ridgeline that cannot be climbed. If the US military takes a ladder or other methods to climb up from the ridgeline, the volunteers can easily solve the problem...

Even our army's position on the reverse slope is no longer a line of defense, but four, five, seven, and eight are indiscriminately arranged here, but in firepower, it can form a complete line of defense, and it is matched according to the distance of the firepower range.

If all the soldiers in the position are gathered on the same line of defense as before, it will be convenient for the bombing of enemy aircraft, and the other is that once the enemy determines the position of our defense, they can directly hit our position with a mortar on the other side and kill our soldiers.

The closest one is the warrior close to the ridgeline. The ridgeline is a place where two inclined surfaces can be seen at the same time on a high ground. Since you can observe the movements of the enemy without exposing yourself, and the grenade can be thrown into the enemy group with just one swing, it is the most important part of the reverse inclined surface tactics and a must-fight for both sides of the offense and defense.

However, the ridge line of a high ground is not very long, and some high grounds do not have ridge lines in practical sense at all. Just like the ridge line of the 1031 high ground we are defending now, the length of the ridge line is only more than twenty meters long. In this 20 meters long position, we can only arrange a squad of soldiers to guard. If there are too many people, it will appear crowded and difficult to display. The soldiers of another squad are hiding in the tunnel and ready to replace the injured and dead soldiers at any time.

The main task of these soldiers guarding the ridgeline is to observe the enemy's movements and report the enemy's position to us at any time, and throw grenades at the enemy. So each of them is surrounded by boxes of grenades, and only a few are holding a Poposa submachine gun in their hands to provide cover for them.

The second level of firepower is the warriors holding submachine guns. The warriors on this level are in the most dangerous position. The range of the Poposa submachine gun is only 200 meters, which determines that the distance from the top of the mountain is only about 100 meters. However, from previous combat experience, I know that when the enemy lies on the top of the mountain and throws the grenade down the mountain, it will often be seventy or eighty meters away (Note: it will be thrown so far because of the height difference and slope). Then the oval grenade rolls downwards, almost at a position of 100 meters.

So on the second floor of firepower, I only arranged one platoon of troops, and the distance between them was very wide, in order to reduce unnecessary casualties.

The third layer is the main force of the reverse slope. Rifles, light machine guns and heavy machine guns with relatively long ranges are all arranged here. They mainly serve as firepower suppression and shooting enemies. If necessary, soldiers holding rifles in their hands can also install bayonets to launch counter charges. In order to prevent the soldiers from charging on rainy days, I also asked the soldiers to lay a lot of small stones on the back slope...

"Captain Cui!" Just as I was waiting for the Americans to climb up, a Korean-language cry suddenly came from beside me. When I turned my head, I saw that it was Major Jin and Major An. What surprised me was that they did not bring the translator named Li Xianhao this time.

"Well!" I couldn't help but ask in confusion when I found it was them: "What are you doing here? Where is your Commander Jin? Why don't you accompany him?"

"He..." Major Jin replied with a little embarrassed look on his face: "Teacher Jin has gone to the 924 Highland!"

"Oh!" I couldn't help but smile bitterly when I heard this. The 924 high ground is the backstory high ground. This Master Jin probably thought that it was the safest place!

"We..." Major Jin hesitated for a while and said with some difficulty: "We want to learn your tactics of fighting American imperialism from Captain Cui, I don't know if it is okay..."

"Of course!" I couldn't help laughing and said, "Major Jin is the head of the Intelligence Section. You may not be the one you Commander Jin sent to spy on us to fight against American imperialism! But to be honest, we originally wanted to teach you this tactics so that we can fight against American imperialism better and more powerfully. But I don't think your attitude seems to take us seriously, so..."

"Where is it! It makes Captain Cui laugh!" Hearing me say this, Major Jin and Major An were both happy and embarrassed. What was happy was that they could soon learn our magic weapon against the Americans. What was embarrassing was that they did not take this tactic seriously as I said before...

At this time, a soldier guarding the edge held a small flag and whispered at us, telling me that the Americans had entered the range of our mortar.

Seeing this, I waved to the foot of the mountain, and the mortars were ready to fire immediately. It was the fourth layer of firepower on the fortifications on the backscene surface, with a total of fifteen mortars. At this time, the gunners had already put a round of shells at the muzzle, waiting for me to give orders.

"Let it go!" I waved my hand down and saw the gunners loosen their hands and the shells slip into the barrel. Then there was a burst of "twist..." sound, and there were explosions and screams coming from the opposite side. These mortars had already adjusted the positions of the opposite side before the US military came up, so when they fired out, the shells were like eyes, making the US military scream. Only the sight of Major Jin and Major An was stunned. The People's Army fought against the US military, and because of the disadvantages of equipment, they were always beaten. I didn't expect that the same equipment would be in our hands, but if we changed the tactics, the US military would be beaten...

What Major Jin and Major An couldn't understand was that the dozen soldiers standing on the edge threw grenades down one after another, causing the US military to croak on the other side to scream. Even the soldiers holding submachine guns popped up from time to time to shoot a shuttle, but they couldn't see the US military's counterattack...

What surprised them even more was that when the US troops rushed up with mud and dust, they were shot by the soldiers several times. The following situation was exactly the same as the saying of shooting the birds with the gun. The US troops were hit by one head, and one pair of heads appeared, and one pair of them appeared. In a short while, no one dared to show up again.

But if they don't show their heads, they don't get beaten. Mortars still bombard them one by one. The grenades of the soldiers guarding the ridge line were still swinging wildly. I heard a burst of explosions and screams on the opposite side, and then another burst of explosions and screams. Soon, I saw the observers on the ridge line telling us under the banner that the US military had begun to retreat. But until now, there are not many Americans we see... All the counterattacks of the US military are nothing more than a few grenades that have been thrown over without any targets.

"This..." Looking at this scene, Major Jin and Major An were stunned for a while, and after a long time of reaction, he said, "When did American imperialism become so easy to fight?"

"American imperialism is not difficult to fight!" Seeing this, I couldn't help but smile: "It's just that the method you used is wrong. Their strong is firepower, and the weakest is fighting will. Of course, it's difficult to fight against you head-on by fighting with them..."

As he said that, he ignored the two people who were stunned, stood up and patted the mud and water on their bodies easily, and walked towards the regiment headquarters.

He walked in the tunnel for a while, and before he even arrived at the regiment headquarters, he heard a hearty laughter coming from inside.

"Is the US military really retreating like this?"

"What if I don't return it? I'll hold it in that end and let's explode?"

"Haha... OK! This guy Cui Wei, don't think he doesn't care about anything, he really has two tricks in fighting!"

"Who is talking bad about me again?" I strode into the tunnel as I said.

"Who dares to say bad things about you!" Huang Xianhua laughed and said, "I said to Comrade Xiao Cui, the battle has gone like this. If anyone dares to say bad things about you, I will be the first to refuse him!"

"Who did I hear me just now..." I deliberately pretended to be an old-fashioned voice and said, "Don't look like he doesn't care about anything..."

"Well, has anyone said this?" Huang Xianhua asked others in a pretentious manner: "It seems I didn't hear it!"

"I didn't hear it either!" Jiang Chunzeng shook his head seriously.

"I didn't seem to hear it either!" Li Xiangming also denied.

"It must be Captain Cui who heard it wrong!" Liu Shunyi's answer almost made me vomit blood.

"I'm talking about Comrade Xiao Cui!" What's even more excessive is that Jiang Chunzeng even acted like to rely on his seniority and taught me a lesson: "Xiao Cui! Even if someone says that, he can't say bad things! We are revolutionary soldiers, so we must humbly accept criticism from others. If others criticize it correctly, we will correct it seriously. What if others criticize it wrong? Then treat it as a lesson..."

"Old Jiang!" I interrupted Chief of Staff Jiang without hesitation: "You might as well just say 'If there is, change it, and if there is no, encourage it'? Why do you have to be so round-rooted?"

"It turns out that Captain Cui understands this truth!" Jiang Chunzeng laughed loudly, and everyone laughed. Only then did I realize that I had fallen into a trap set by Jiang Chunzeng. I couldn't help but shake my head and smile bitterly in my heart. Unexpectedly, these old guys still have the leisure to unite to deal with me, a rookie...

"Captain Cui!" Finally, Li Xiangming turned his words to the main topic: "Although we have heard of the reverse incline fortifications before and know that they have been tested in practice, we never thought that the reverse incline fortifications would be so powerful. After the battle just now, we understood that if we continue to shoot like this, as long as we have bullets, the enemy will not be able to get through!"

"You can't say that!" Jiang Chunzeng said interrogatively: "Any tactic has its advantages and there will inevitably be shortcomings. I think the same is true for this reverse slope tactic!"

"Chief Jiang said it well!" I nodded in agreement: "In fact, in actual combat, the reverse slope tactics also exposed its weaknesses. One is that the enemy's aircraft can still bomb the reverse slope, and the incendiary bombs can force us into the tunnel. As long as their army and the air force cooperate well, we can be sealed in the tunnel."

"We don't have to worry about this for the time being!" Liu Shunyi replied: "The weather is not good and the enemy's planes are difficult to take off. Even if there are several planes to bomb, it is difficult to accurately drop bombs with such poor visibility."

"Yeah!" I nodded. This issue is indeed not necessary to be considered for the time being, because I know that the heavy rain will take at least ten days to fall until North Korea floods most of the roads.

"Another disadvantage..." After looking at the map, I continued: "That is the fortification of the backside. What I fear most is to be surrounded by the enemy to the side. In this way, the backside will become the forward incline!"

"Didn't you find a way to solve this shortcoming? "Wasn't you going to find a way to solve this problem when you heard this? Liu Shunyi couldn't help but ask in confusion: "We have dug two high grounds relatively backwards. The forward incline and the reverse incline can be transformed into each other..."

"There is no problem with the two high grounds behind!" I couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "But what about the next one? Our high grounds are all east-west. We have the People's Army defense on our flanks now. There is no need to worry about it. Once the US military breaks through the People's Army's defense line, their cannons can hit any of our backscene surfaces!"
