On December 30, when the night surrounded the banks of Linjin River, the entire group of people divided into several groups to drill out of the forest, climbed across the plain, and sneaked into the tunnel. Overnight, the entire group of people disappeared.

The attack time is set at 5 pm tomorrow. This is the attack time that volunteer soldiers like to choose the most! This is the time when the enemy has dinner and then rest and sleep. The more they fight, the darker the enemy becomes, the more tired the enemy fights!

Because the attack started the next afternoon, the entire regiment had to enter the tunnel the night before. As soon as I entered the tunnel, I found a very wrong place. I usually didn’t feel that I had to stay in the tunnel. This time I had to spend the night in the tunnel, and I realized that it was boring inside, just like when I was a child, I took the train full of people. I had not slept in the tunnel for half an hour, and I regretted why I didn’t dig a few more vents at the beginning.

But thinking about it, there is nothing I can do about it. The ground is full of mines. Every time I dug a vent, I carefully reconnaissed several times. After confirming that there were no mines on it, I only made one. If I had to do a few more, I don’t know when it would be done.

This lurking sounds simple, but it is not that easy to do. More than a hundred people are nesting in a narrow space. There is almost the air, and they need to urinate and defecate... Fortunately, each class has prepared several iron boxes for each queuing!

Although most of the volunteer soldiers are not very educated, they are not inferior to me, an outstanding graduate of a certain university. So, the tunnels are full of "props" prepared by soldiers. There are door panels and wooden boards borrowed from ordinary people, which are used to cross the ice caves in the Linjin River; homemade wooden ladders are used to climb the steep arms; socks sewn with raincoats are used to solve the problem of waterproofing and anti-freezing...

There are also straw sandals, which are the strengths of volunteer soldiers. Everyone has a pair of them. Isn’t that? I also wear a pair of rubber shoes outside. Instructor Zhao helped me with them. It is said that they are used to prevent slipping on the ice. I don’t know whether walking on the ice will work, but walking on the snow is indeed much better.

From this I can't help but admire again that the wisdom of the masses is infinite!

But at this time, the problems I was worried about also arise. I will launch a general attack tomorrow, but the dry food sent to the volunteers was only enough for three days to eat, and each soldier had only thirty bullets. When I heard this number, I couldn't help but faint. The ammunition base of a combat soldier in the entire World War II was 120. Now, the volunteer soldiers holding the 38th large cover, but the bullets in their hands were only one quarter of the base of a Japanese army.

Logistics, logistics has always been a big problem for volunteer soldiers. When I first entered North Korea to fight, this problem was not serious, because the first two battles were not far away, and domestic food and ammunition were basically transported abroad to the hands of the Volunteers. But now the Volunteers have already reached the 38th parallel. While calling out the Volunteers' major victory, it also exposed a very serious problem - the supply line of volunteer soldiers is getting longer and longer. Moreover, without the air force and navy, the supply line of the Volunteers' army is still very fragile. It can be said that every bullet, every fried noodles, and every cotton coat is filled with the blood of the logistics army.

However, the problem of missing bullets should not have occurred on me. I weighed the ammunition bag on my body, which was about ten pounds! I counted and found that there were thirty-eight magazines with more than 300 bullets and six grenades, which I picked up all the way in the second battle. This did not include the fifteen magazines that were forced to surrender.

Touching the m1c sniper rifle in my hand, I couldn't help but secretly glad that this guy used bullets from an ordinary m1 rifle. If it used a competition bullet for a sniper rifle, where did I find so many bullets...

For most of the ordinary days, you are not allowed to speak or make any sounds. Time just passes by in boredom and boredom.

It was almost five o'clock the next afternoon, and the atmosphere in the tunnel was particularly tense, but not to welcome the New Year, but to wait for the upcoming third battle.

At this time, the people in China should be preparing wine and food for the New Year, or the whole family is sitting in front of the warm pit and wrapping dumplings.

And we... hid in the tunnel and endured the erosion of the air, shivered in thin cotton coats, and there were only two days left in the dry food bag. If it weren't for the war, I think everyone might have been reluctant to take a bite.

"Happy New Year!" When Instructor Zhao passed by me, he patted my shoulder. I couldn't help but be stunned. He grabbed my sniper rifle and stood up. He finally checked the equipment in the dim light, and then took out a magazine to install the rifle.

"Happy New Year!" I poked Hu Zi's back. He was holding a handful of fried noodles and pouring them into his mouth. When he heard this, he turned around and smiled at me. His beard was covered with fried noodles.

"Happy New Year!" Hu Zi shouted to the old squad leader in a slightly hoarse voice. The old squad leader's movements couldn't help but stop. He was helping Jin Qiulian tie the quilt with the marching quilt.

"Happy New Year!" The old squad leader weighed the marching belt on Jin Qiulian's back with his hand to ensure it was strong.

"Happy New Year!"

"Happy New Year!"

...

After a while, there were low voices everywhere in the tunnel, and everyone was blessing with smiles on their faces. It didn’t seem like they were going to fight a big battle, but it was more like they were going to attend a banquet!

Outside the tunnel was still filled with wind and snow, and there was a vast white area. At this time, a series of brilliant signal flares suddenly rose into the air, and hundreds of cannons from the volunteers roared almost at the same time. In an instant, waves of cannons that collapsed and cracked the earth broke the silence of the Linjin River. Groups of shells swept towards the enemy's positions like whirlwinds. The enemy's positions brought up a sea of ​​smoke and fire, and countless destroyed bunkers, barbed wire, and fence fragments and wrecks flew into the air.

This is the first time since the Volunteer Army entered North Korea that it concentrated on using artillery on a large scale. In order to break through this line of defense, the Volunteer Army poured out all the accumulated artillery shells at this moment.

The cannon fire broke out and lasted for more than 30 minutes. The enemy thought that the artillery of the Volunteer Army was very weak and there was no air force, so he was very relieved to expose the artillery positions and fire points to the observation of the Volunteer Army. This made the artillery fire of the Volunteer Army successfully suppress the enemy's artillery and fire points. Many enemy artillery formations failed to fire a shell within dozens of minutes of the Volunteer Army's artillery bombardment.
