The gunshots soon became dense. The Vietnamese army divided into several echelons and rushed towards the soldiers stationed on the nameless high ground one after another. In front were infantry jumping forward with various covers on the positions, and behind were light machine guns, heavy machine guns, and various direct-aising artillery and mortars.

Before the war started, our army had exposed most of its firepower to the Vietnamese army, so the Vietnamese army almost didn't have much effort to fight. First, they knocked off or suppressed the firepower points of our army one by one, and then the infantry rushed up...

Although this sounds simple, I know very well that this requires close coordination between the various parts of the infantry and artillery. This is not something that new recruits who are just on the battlefield can do. For example, if the infantry charging ahead is faster, it will be injured under the firepower of the existing troops, and if the slower ones, it will not achieve good results.

I have to admit that the Vietnamese army did this very well, and it is no wonder that the soldiers of the 608th Regiment suffered such great casualties under their hands.

"Battery Commander! You can almost go up!" Li Zhifu looked at the team of Vietnamese troops rushing to the nameless high ground, and couldn't help it. He came to me and said, "If you go up later, I'm afraid our troops will not be able to defend!"

"Wait a little longer!" I raised my telescope and looked in the direction of the Vietnamese army, and said gritting my teeth.

I just calculated the strength of the Vietnamese army to rush to the nameless high ground, and there were only about two platoons. I judged that if the Vietnamese army wanted to quickly capture our position, this little force alone would not be enough. Obviously, they still had some of the forces watching us secretly.

I think the Vietnamese army adopts this cautious attitude, which is very likely because they are worried that we will launch a surprise attack. In this case, if we attack, we may be in an embarrassing situation of being attacked on both sides.

At this time, I was indeed a little worried that the Vietnamese army would just wait like this, because the battle situation would develop like this and the nameless high would eventually fall into the hands of the Vietnamese army. It was just a difference in length of time.

Should I go up to rescue Wuming Highlands now? At this time, I couldn't help but fall into a dilemma. If I wanted, I just needed to order part of our army to climb up from the back slope of Wuming Highlands to help the soldiers of the 608th Regiment to resist. But the result of this is that although we can save the soldiers on Wuming Highlands, we will also let the Vietnamese army escape unscathed...

No! No! No!

I quickly denied this plan. Doing so can indeed save some of the soldiers, but the fleeing Vietnamese army will undoubtedly cause us to lose more people. So although this decision seems very humane, it is actually a decision to exchange watermelon for sesame seeds. I believe that no wise commander will do this.

At this time, I was betting that the commander of the Vietnamese army wanted to fight quickly and decide quickly. He would not have the patience to wait until I used the two platoons of troops to slowly grind us.

Time passed minute by minute, and the gunshots and explosions on the Wuming Highlands became more and more intense. However, the Vietnamese troops still did not appear, and my heart was hanging over me became more and more nervous. Li Zhifu was even more anxious. He looked at me every few seconds, and from his eyes I could see his doubts - why didn't he fight yet? If he didn't fight, the Yue Japanese would take down the Wuming Highlands... But I always believed that the best time for combat had not yet appeared, so I still gritted my teeth and lie down on the spot.

At this time, I deeply realized that as a commander, sometimes he not only analyzes problems and makes plans, but more often he must be able to withstand pressure from all sides and stick to his own position.

However, this kind of persistence is not necessarily a good thing. If the result of this persistence is right, it is called "firm stance". However, if this kind of persistence is wrong, it is called "stubborn". Therefore, success, defeat, and bandit are not just relative to the enemy, but also the decisions made in the army are not the same?

For example, now, when Li Zhifu has advised me to launch an attack as soon as possible, if I insist on not fighting and finally defeated this battle, then everyone will think that this is a failed command, so the sacrifices of so many soldiers become worthless, and the accounts will be taken over to me.

Fortunately, this did not happen. A few minutes later, the commander of the Vietnamese army finally could not wait any longer and sent the last troops to the nameless high ground...

I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and then I realized that my forehead was covered with sweat. I was not afraid of the enemy, but of responsibility. At least one platoon of the 608th Regiment was stationed on the nameless high ground, which were dozens of lives! If they were allowed to sacrifice worthlessly, even if others could forgive me, I would not forgive myself.

When the last batch of Vietnamese troops rushed to the high ground, I immediately ordered to the walkie-talkie: "Everyone has it! Don't leave prisoners, kill..."

"Kill!" The soldiers, carrying rifles and submachine guns that had already been bayonetized, jumped out of the hidden place like tigers going down the mountain and rushed towards the Vietnamese position.

The first thing we have to face is the machine gun company that was carrying out cover missions at the foot of the mountain. They were sweeping and firing at the top of the mountain with machine guns and various artillery fired in waves and bursts of fire on the top of the mountain! Unexpectedly, a unit suddenly rushed over as if it had fallen from the world. When they realized it, we were already in front of them.

The Vietnamese army's reaction was not slow. Various machine guns quickly turned the guns, and the gunners were also panicked to pick up weapons from their backs or on the ground to defend themselves, but everything was too late...

On the battlefield, it is often a few seconds away and the soldiers will lose the opportunity. They will not give them a chance to fight back. Before they could come and fire, they had already picked up the submachine gun and fired them in pieces of bullets. Some soldiers even dropped a few grenades at them. In an instant, the Vietnamese army was beaten to pieces by us.

"Submachine gun plus grenades, no exchange of money for melee battles." This was originally a catchphrase used by the US military when resisting U.S. aggression and aiding Korea, but we also received a strong proof in our hands. Moreover, our army's melee battles is not just submachine gun plus grenades, but when a row of grenades and a piece of bullets made the Vietnamese army mess up, before the Vietnamese army could breathe a sigh of relief, the soldiers rushed forward with bayonets...

Most of the troops of the machine gun company were separated by the protection of infantry and fought against the opponents. When did they fight such a close-range battle? In addition, they could be said to be unprepared in advance, and our two troops were attacked from left to right with an absolute advantage. So in just a few minutes, they collapsed completely. Those who were slow to die under the bullets and bayonets of the soldiers. Those who were quick to move lost all kinds of heavy weapons and hid in the darkness of the jungle.

Once the Vietnamese army's machine cannon company was repelled by our army, it means that the Vietnamese army that had attacked the nameless high ground had fallen into our encirclement. So the soldiers did not chase them and soon divided them into several parts according to the original plan.

Needless to say, the members of the shooting team were, of course, scattered and hidden in every corner of the position to serve as a mission to snipe the enemy.

The first part of the combat troops is Xu Yongjian's fourth company. Their mission is to form a line of defense on my periphery to prevent other Vietnamese troops from coming to rescue the Vietnamese army besieged by us, and also serve as a cover for our side and rear safety.

The second part is the fifth company led by Li Zhifu and I. We are responsible for launching a counterattack against the Vietnamese army that attacked the nameless highlands.

The last part is the Sixth Company in the hands of the people in my hometown. Their mission is to use the various heavy weapons that the Vietnamese army had just dropped to shoot at the Vietnamese army on the nameless high ground and cover the attack of the fifth Company.

This mission can be said to be the most satisfying. The light and heavy machine guns and various artillery left by the Vietnamese Japanese are all Su-style equipment, which is much better in terms of quality and performance than the imitations in our army's hands. It is precisely because most of our army's equipment in this era were imitations of Su-style weapons, so it is not unfamiliar to our soldiers at all. You can fight with it if you hold it in your hands.

Of course, the people from my hometown would not be polite to the Vietnamese army. They grabbed those machine guns, heavy machine guns, etc., and then swept the Vietnamese army on the slope!

The Vietnamese army would never have thought that our army would suddenly appear behind them. In just a few minutes, the weapons that originally belonged to their own troops were also covering them suddenly aimed at them...

So with the sound of "da da da da" machine guns and the sound of straight-sighted artillery and mortars, the Vietnamese army on the slope were beaten in pieces and screaming and falling into a pool of blood. What made the Vietnamese army even more terrifying was that the fifth company in my hand was followed by these artillery fire and bullets...

At this time, we should be sure to win. On the top of the mountain in the nameless highland were soldiers of our 608th Regiment, and at the foot of the mountain, more than 200 of our army's troops blocked reinforcements and killed trapped beasts inside. At this time, the Vietnamese army could only take the lead and surrendered.

However, I soon discovered that I had underestimated these Vietnamese troops. They did not collapse under the attack of our army on both sides, but quickly responded and launched a fierce attack on our army's mountaintop position.

It should be said that the Vietnamese army's choice was right and timely. They also saw that the 608th Regiment stationed on the top of the mountain was not of high quality, so... as long as they could capture the top of the mountain before we eliminate them, they could not only set off a way out, but also compete with our army based on the top of the mountain and turn defeat into victory.
