Chapter 406: Hands-off

The vast night is dark and the smoke is not over.537.7 The northern high ground is full of traces of battle.

Blood, bullets, craters, and corpses everywhere, this is the price of war.

The position was occupied and the sacrifice was not small. The Battle of Shangganling reached its final stage. The "United Nations Army" learned better methods to attack opponents in battle, and each person had his own advantages.

Volunteer soldiers worked hard and could build underground tunnels below the positions with manpower that were comparable to human miracles; but the "United Nations Army" also had its own advantages, that is, they were mechanized engineering equipment that they could not match the Volunteer Army, and there was no need to consider whether there was enough reinforced concrete.

Below the position is an underground tunnel excavated by Chinese volunteer soldiers, and above the position is a large number of permanent fortifications made by the enemy with reinforced concrete.

The volunteers can protrude from the underground tunnel to give the enemy a fatal blow to the enemy on the position, but the permanent fortifications made by the enemy with reinforced concrete cannot be underestimated. These things are so strong that they cannot even destroy shells. Sometimes they even bombard with explosive packs and blasting tubes. The surface of their fortification points cannot be destroyed. Some of them are overturned by the huge power of the explosives, but the main body of their fortifications has not been destroyed!

Seeing such fortifications, Wang Yang and the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment were stunned when they saw them. The fortifications made of reinforced concrete were so abnormal. No wonder even though the Volunteer Army launched shellings again and again, there were still a large number of enemy fortifications that had not been destroyed.

In other words, looking at the enemies' perverted fortifications, Deputy Commanders Yao Lufan and Wang Yang felt that the major losses we suffered were understandable.

The battle that night can only be described as tragic. If it weren't for the heavy casualties, why did the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment and Wang Yang who crawled out of the tunnel after destroying the three positions defended by the South Korean army, and they did not even have a single prisoner left. They were all killed by these volunteer soldiers in anger as the most "tenifiable" enemies in the world?

Deputy Commander Yao Lufan was filled with grief. For the sake of the attack tonight, he mobilized all the troops that could be drawn from the 92nd Regiment of the 537.7 position to join this attack battle. There were four and a half companies, but until now, with the troops brought by Wang Yang, there were only two companies left in the end, and the casualty rate reached a strange 50%. This kind of strike was extremely huge for the commander.

Speaking of which, this is thanks to the strongest position No. 8. Due to Wang Yang and his internal and external relations, the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment did not suffer any casualties on the position No. 8. Otherwise, if the casualties suffered by the position No. 8, the deputy commander Yao Lufan would probably have a heart attack. This loss was something that a commander could not bear to hear about. How many strong soldiers and passionate men fell in a foreign land like this.

"Captain Wang, it seems that I have to trouble you. We can only retreat safely after we persist until dawn and wait for the soldiers of the 93rd Regiment to come up to take over our position."

Deputy Commander Yao Lufan showed a wry smile with a little embarrassment on his face, and he said embarrassedly at Wang Yang.

"Deputy Commander, you assign tasks, we will follow your orders!"

Wang Yang was calm and composed. On the Shangganling position, Wang Yang could be said to be more calm in dealing with the losses of the troops than the deputy regiment commander Yao Lufan. The reason was that he had been completely numb by this blow in many battles. In his opinion, the 92nd Regiment was called a loss. Think about the 8th Company of the 134th Regiment of the 45th Division. Although he had won the title of a hero company, he was completely wiped out four times in the entire Shangganling battle. In the final counterattack stage of the 597.9 highland of Shangganling, from the battle in the tunnel to the final attack to the capture of the position, Cui Jiangong of the 8th Company of the 134th Regiment added a total of 800 troops to the 8th Company, which was considered to be a heavy sacrifice in the Eighth Company.

"What orders are not ordered? It is a kind of honor for our 92nd Regiment to fight with the soldiers of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade!"

Deputy Commander Yao Lufan knew the existence of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade, and also knew that these perverts could not be treated with common sense. In front of Wang Yang, he did not dare to show the prestige of the deputy commander, so he looked at Wang Yang in a negotiated tone and said:

"Comrade Wang Yang, look at this, we are responsible for one position, how about it! I guard the No. 10 position, how about you guard the No. 7? Let the No. 8 position defend the Second Company, which has suffered the most serious losses!"

"I obey the orders! As long as my people are still there, the position will never be lost!"

Wang Yang accepted the order very simply, and then led the soldiers of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade and the soldiers who came out of the tunnel to rush to the No. 7 position together with a member of the 8th Company and the Third Company of the 92nd Regiment.

This is undoubtedly another extremely difficult task, but Wang Yang cannot refuse. He doesn't want to refuse. He must know that if the position is lost again as soon as it is occupied, then when he wants to counterattack this position next time, he will not know how much more price he will have to pay.

Speaking of the deputy regiment commander Yao Lufan was also forced to attack. There were two things he did not expect. You should know that although the 31st Division was brave, it did not expect that the South Korean enemy and the US military in the Shangganling Battle were so difficult to deal with. Even when they saw the 91st Regiment took over Wang Yang and his position to defend the 597.9 Highlands, they thought that these enemies were easy to deal with. However, after fighting desperately with the South Korean troops in front of him today, he realized how powerful the mistakes he had made in the past were.

According to the original plan, Wang Yang's main task was to rescue all the soldiers in the tunnel, and then take these soldiers back to the rear and accept the warm welcome from the soldiers of the 45th Division. To put it bluntly, the mission of these soldiers who have made great contributions has been completed. After returning to the army, they will be treated with injuries. If they are not injured, they will rest and wait for their superiors to reward them with merit.

It can be said that Yangyang and his team can not even participate in the No. 8 position, as well as the offensive No. 7 and No. 10 position, because their mission has been completed, and the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment have nothing to do with Wang Yang and the others, and they can completely retreat successfully.

Everyone knows that Wang Yang and his group of Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade, as well as a group of soldiers from the 45th Division, are all heroes in the Battle of Shangganling. It is precisely because of their arduous battle that they used the strength of one division to block the strong attack of the four divisions of the "United Nations Army" that allowed the volunteers to calmly adjust their troops, and finally, the situation of the Battle of Shangganling has taken a step that is beneficial to our army.

Such people, such a group of soldiers, in this army full of honors and merits, know that their future will be bright. Not to mention anything else, they will be in the future of the army's career. Because of the fact that the Shangganling battle is made great contributions in the archives, they will become a general in the Chinese People's Liberation Army, and even a general is not a problem.

But now? Deputy Commander Yao Lufan is short of troops, so he can't even care about these things. In order to defend the position, he can only speak to Wang Yang. It's easy to say something. But to be honest, Deputy Commander Yao Lufan took political risks to demand it. To put it bluntly, it's okay for Wang Yang and his group of people to be fine. If one sacrifices or something goes wrong, then Yao Lufan might be remembered by Cui Jiangong, the commander of the 45th Division, Gao Xiaodong, the commander of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade, and even General Qin Jiwei, the commander of the 15th Army.

Everyone knows that the commander of the 15th Army Qin Jiwei is the most protective general. The commanders of his subordinates also regard the soldiers as their lives. The soldiers of our 15th Army fought bloody battles for dozens of days and made countless contributions. They were all heroes in the Korean War. The most backbone elite of our 15th Army in the future, and finally broke out from the body of Shangganling.

But for a period of guarding missions of the 92nd Regiment of the 31st Division of the 12th Army, your deputy commander Yao Lufan was sent to the position but was used as cannon fodder. It’s amazing that you are a deputy commander of the 15th Army. Is there a way to assign the heroes of my 15th Army?

Just one such sentence, such an idea has entered the hearts of Qin Jiwei and the cadres of the 15th Army. There is no need to think that Yao Lufan will not have to hang out in the Volunteer Army troops in the future. Sooner or later, these guys who protect their kids will look for him about Yao Lufan. Will he still have a future? If these big guys find a reason to demobilize him that day, then they will burn Gao Xiang to worship the uncle.

Thinking of this, Wang Yang admired Yao Lufan's courage, but it has to be said that the deputy commander is still very responsible, and his starting point is to defend the position and protect the fruits of the night of the battle. From this point of view, Wang Yang could not disagree with his decision.

"All the soldiers of the 45th Division came out for me!"

Thinking of this, Wang Yang immediately returned to the place where the soldiers were staying in the tunnel. The soldiers were watching the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment busy building defensive positions, and they all had the urge to go up to help. However, because Wang Yang asked them to wait here, no one moved.

"Wang Qing, you are responsible for it. Take all the soldiers of the 45th Division down. Commander Cui Jiangong and others are waiting for you!"

Under Wang Yang's order, although the soldiers of the 45th Division did not know what Wang Yang was going to do, they all stood up consciously. However, this title of obviously divided troops made everyone feel a little awkward. After all, the soldiers in the tunnel all established a very strong relationship in the battle, and everyone was a little dazed.

"Company Commander Wang, what about you?"

Wang Qing brought these 45th Division soldiers who had fought on the northern high ground of 537.7 for a long time and walked out, but he didn't expect to hear this sentence. Seeing Wang Yang's face a little serious, he obviously felt something was wrong, so he subconsciously asked Wang Yang.

"We? There are still some tasks that have not been completed!"

It is easy to capture the position, but it has to be defended. With such a little force to defend, Wang Yang can guess with his toes to think about the problem. At that time, these "United Nations Army" that were driven out of Shangganling will never give up. Will the arrogant General Van Vertree admit defeat so easily? No, if he is easy to admit defeat, the Battle of Shangganling would not be so fierce.

"The mission you followed me was to bring these heroes who were standing on the northern high ground of 537.7 back to the main force, so your mission has been completed. You must go back quickly. Commander Cui Jiangong and his comrades in your company are waiting for you to go back?"

He actually knew that he might face the extremely crazy attack of the enemy. Wang Yang took it for granted that it would be extremely difficult for such people to defend their positions. If he was not good, many soldiers might have to sacrifice themselves.

The soldiers of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade and the sniper trained by Fu Rongyi are all forgot. After all, the command is in the hands of Wang Yang. No one will say anything about Wang Yang's decision, but what about the soldiers of the 45th Division? These people will be the seeds of the 45th Division in the future. Moreover, these heroes have paid too much to fight against the enemy with great difficulty on the position, and Wang Yang will never want them to suffer any damage.

"No, Company Commander Wang, are you going to participate in a blocking battle for a while?"

Wang Qing frowned. Actually, the situation on the position is very clear now, and there is no need to make too many speculations. Wang Qing had already thought about what Wang Yang wanted to do. He was about to speak, but he didn't expect that someone would interrupt faster than him. However, this man followed them to a row of chief Lai Changgong who came out of the 597.9 high ground. He only heard his eyes firmly asking Wang Yang:

"Don't let us go. If we come together, we should go back together!"

"Yes, Wang Company! You can't leave us behind. We can still fight. As long as we can fight these puppet troops and help our comrades get revenge, we can go to the battlefield at any time."

After hearing what Lai Changgong said, the 45th soldiers who persisted from the tunnel all understood. When they heard that Wang Yang wanted them to throw them down, they were unwilling to do so. They all came to their hearts.

"Comrades, it's not that I won't take you there, it's that your physical strength is really exhausted now. You have to go back and take a good rest. Now there are brothers from the 91st Regiment guarding me on the position, so don't worry!"

Wang Yang was extremely moved when he heard this, but he still firmly opposed the soldiers of the 45th Division staying. When he thought of these tiger-like soldiers falling down here, he might not be able to forgive himself for the rest of his life. Yes! They have suffered too much!

"No, Company Commander Wang!"

However, Wang Yang thought so wishfully, and Wang Qing was not so easy to deceive, so he immediately asked Wang Yang: "Teacher Cui wants us to go back together. If you don't leave now, we can't leave either!"

"Yes, we don't afford it either! Company Commander Wang, let's go together if you want to leave!"

When everyone heard about Wang Qing's birth, he knew that Wang Yang was actually going to drive everyone away. Needless to say, he must be afraid that everyone would make a major sacrifice in the war that would be waiting. However, if these passionate warriors were afraid of sacrifice, they would not have been in the tunnel for so long. Seeing that Wang Yang wanted to drive everyone back, the soldiers were unhappy.

"No, we will go back to meet with everyone after completing the task, but you must not stay, you must go back!"

Uh, these soldiers are smart, but they are not that easy to cheat. Wang Yang can only say that his scam is too hard, so the soldiers can see through it at a glance, but Wang Yang's nature is no longer empty, and his face darkened and immediately said to Wang Qing seriously:

"Comrade Wang Qing, you are a Communist Party member and a soldier. You should know what discipline is! I will tell you now that this is an order! You must obey!"

"Comrades, I know your feelings, but you are all the seeds of the 45th Division. You are soldiers who have made great contributions from the positions and retreated gloriously. I was entrusted by the division commander and must bring you back to the army, so now you must go back. This is an order! As a soldier, I want to believe what you should do!"

"Wang Qing, Lai Changgong, and Comrade Xie Jinxi, you will take the soldiers down, and I will once again declare to you that this is an order!"

At this moment, Wang Yang stopped Luo Suo and looked at Lai Changgong seriously. Xie Jinxi and Wang Qing gave their instructions. The meaning was too clear. You have to agree if you don’t agree. This is a military order. On the battlefield, this is quite powerful, and it shocked Wang Qing and other soldiers in an instant.

"Fu Rongyi, Xu Weiguo!"'

"arrive!"

"You will take the remaining soldiers to the No. 7 position immediately, organize the soldiers, build fortifications immediately, and prepare for battle!"

"yes!"

Fu Rongyi and Xu Weiguo only then understood what Wang Yang was doing? None of these guys were afraid. When they heard that there was a war to fight, the comrades became energetic, especially the soldiers in the sniper training camp. They were originally training in the rear, but they didn't even catch up with the battle. Besides, they had been holding it in the tunnel for so long, and everyone was depressed. When they heard that there was a war, their eyes were full of green light at night.

"Hurry up, go up to me! This time it's time for our training camp to see the real skills. The training has been almost one month long. If you are a hero, you stand up for me. After making me a contribution, I asked Captain Wang to ask everyone for me. If you perform well, maybe we Captain Wang will fall in love with him. Hehe, let's go to our Xiaolong Special Forces Team to gang up!"

As soon as Wang Yang finished speaking, Fu Rongyi and Xu Weiguo and Ye Cheng organized the remaining soldiers. But although there are only four or five soldiers in the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade, they look different from Ye Cheng. They are very steady and very angry, which makes the other soldiers lit up when they see it.

Fu Rongyi is even more amazing. The soldiers of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade are all veterans. Don’t say too much. They are the only ones who bully others. It is not easy for others to bully them. It is encouraged by the soldiers in the sniper training camp. However, the reward given by Fu Rongyi is really a little too tempting. I heard that you can have the opportunity to join the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade, and the eyes of these soldiers are shining brightly.

"All of them, turn left!"

“Running forward!”

"Fight a beautiful battle to show the soldiers of the 92nd Regiment!"

Fu Rongyi issued a command, and then rushed to the No. 7 position without any delay. The soldiers of the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade followed closely under the leadership of Xu Weiguo. Only Ye Cheng saw that Wang Yang had not left yet, so he stood behind Wang Yang.

"You go back quickly, Commander Cui is still waiting for you? Don't play tricks on me on the way back, otherwise I won't spare you!"

When Wang Yang heard Fu Rongyi praising such a gust in front of him, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. Fu Rongyi was very smart. He knew that the Xiaolong Special Forces Brigade had suffered a lot this time and must be supplemented. Wang Yang did have the idea to find a few familiar soldiers in the 45th Division who had fought together and were familiar to him.

But Wang Yang secretly wanted to scold Fu Rongyi. It's enough for you to understand it in your heart. Why do you have to say it? What's especially true is that this kid has to say it in front of all the soldiers of the 45th Division. Now, the soldiers of the 45th Division who know that they can't go to the battlefield have their eyes glowed, and their faces are full of contradictions and regrets. Isn't this asking them to do activities in their hearts?

"Go away quickly! Take the soldiers with you!"

Wang Yang shook his head and could only warn Wang Qing and Xie Jinxi again and again that he must restrain the soldiers of the 45th Division, because he knew that if these brave soldiers did not warn them well, Wang Yang might turn around and find that these guys might have secretly followed after the war was opened.

"Yecheng, let's go!"

Wang Yang glared at Wang Qing as a warning, but even if he was worried, he could only do this. After all, he still had to command the No. 7 position. The soldiers of the 92nd Regiment had just returned from reconnaissance and said that South Korean soldiers were gathering at the foot of the mountain and the battle might start soon. He had to go back and get to know the soldiers under his command and adapt to the position, otherwise the battle would be even more difficult to fight in a while.

"Captain, Deputy Commander Yao just sent a communicator to say it!"

After rushing to the No. 7 position, Wang Yang and Ye Cheng had not yet stood firm, so Fu Rongyi ran to Wang Yang to report to him:

"We must keep the position for three hours, and then at about eight o'clock when it dawns, the comrades from the 93rd Regiment of my 31st Division will come to support and guard our position!"

"Damn it, three hours!"

When Wang Yang heard this order, he gritted his teeth for a moment, because he looked at the No. 7 position and then the number of people on the position. He knew that although the time was not long, this task was really difficult.

Why do you say so?

Let’s talk about the number of people on the No. 7 position now. Deputy regiment commander Yao Lufan is not favored by one. About seventy soldiers were left on the No. 7 position to help Wang Yang and the others guard. With Wang Yang’s Xiaolong Special Forces Team and Fu Rongyi’s sniper training camp, their number is absolutely no less than that of the No. 10 position, and even a few more people are included.

At the same time, position No. 10 is a little ahead than position No. 7, so the pressure they will be under will be greater than position No. 7 in a while.

However, Wang Yang had a headache. Even though he had nearly a hundred soldiers in his hands to command, he still felt that the number of people was small. The No. 7 position was too large. There were three lines of defense in the depth of the No. 7 position, and the two wings were also prominent fronts. If the personnel really had to be opened in a row, there would be no reserve team. If they really wanted to fight, they would easily be insufficient.
To be continued...
