Volume 1: The First Battle Chapter 32: Battle of Yunshan (Part 2)
Why are these damn Americans so lazy? There are still some soldiers running around outside the city, but there is no one inside the city. I cursed in my heart, there should be at least someone standing guard in front of the headquarters, why is there nothing?
I patted the roof of the car, signaling the driver to stop the car, then jumped out of the car, lit a cigarette, and walked around the car bored. Soon, Captain Chu and Captain Xu also came over, and the three of them took their cigarettes and puffed out smoke.
"What should we do? Fight?" Captain Xu asked Captain Chu in a low voice.
Captain Chu shook his head and replied, "We can't find the enemy headquarters, so we just start fighting randomly. One company of ours is not enough to cause chaos in the enemy army, and if we're not careful, it could ruin everything."
"How about we catch a tongue and ask it?"
"No, you don't need to."
Captain Chu was about to nod but I stopped him. Following my gaze, they noticed two American soldiers running towards them at the end of the street.
"Hi, buddy!" When they came closer, I asked casually, "Do you know where is the head quarters?"
"Follow me!" The two American soldiers ran forward without looking back, which made us behind them very happy.
In the darkness, a group of us followed the two American soldiers from a distance. If we ran too close, they would get suspicious, but if we ran too far, we would lose them. Fortunately, the two soldiers did not look back, otherwise they would have noticed something was wrong if they had found more than a hundred people following them.
The two soldiers turned left and right in front, and finally stopped in front of a large courtyard, knocking on the door. Hearing the knocking, several fully armed sentries came out of the tent.
Captain Chu and I looked at each other, and now we finally understood why we couldn't find the headquarters.
"Fight!" Captain Chu gave an order, and the soldiers used their weapons to unleash their power. The American soldiers were shot and fell to the ground before they could even understand what was happening.
In fact, it wasn't just them who were not mentally prepared, I was too.
Looking at those American soldiers lying in a pool of blood , I couldn't help but feel a little sorry. I was just talking to them! Although I only said one sentence, we were still smiling at each other, but not long after, I shot them in the back... It felt a bit, a bit... Yes, it was immoral.
But think about it, there is no morality on the battlefield, the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy, right? Especially now that the volunteer soldiers are in the enemy camp, if they still talk about morality at this time, they will be courting death.
"First Platoon! Hold this street." Captain Chu barked out orders one after another like frying beans: "Second Platoon, these two streets are in your hands. Don't let the enemy get close. Third Platoon, follow me. Xu Feng will give the signal, and you will command outside..."
"Yes!" The soldiers responded and quickly set up a defense line on the side of the street. With a few bangs, three red flares were fired from the signal gun in Xu Feng's hand.
At this time, the whole world was boiling. Charges sounded almost simultaneously from the east, west and north directions outside the city. Shouts, gunshots and explosions instantly resounded throughout the entire Yunshan City, waking up the sleeping American soldiers.
Perhaps because they had already had experience of being attacked by the volunteers at night, these American soldiers reacted quickly and crawled out of the tents fully armed in just a few minutes. However, they soon realized that this time was different from the past, because they waited for a long time but did not receive any orders from their superiors .
Their superior had just made a phone call to ask for instructions, but all he heard was a cry for help from the command center...
…
"Boom boom..." A few times, under the command of Captain Chu, the gate was quickly blown open by a grenade. As soon as the gate was opened, the sound of machine guns rang out in the yard, and a volley of bullets poured out like hail, and several volunteer soldiers were shot and fell to the ground.
"Throw the grenade !" Captain Chu gave the order, and more than a dozen soldiers took out American melon-shaped grenades, pulled the safety and threw them in. With a loud bang, the machine gun was silenced. The soldiers also rushed in taking advantage of the grenade smoke.
But these Americans were not simple either. They quickly built a defense line in the courtyard and fought fiercely with the volunteer soldiers. For a while, the sound of gunfire continued in the courtyard and the battle was indistinguishable...
The First Cavalry Division is really good. I thought to myself, I heard that this unit is a founding father of the United States, created by the father of the United States, Washington, during the War of Independence. It has never suffered a defeat, and all the soldiers are tough. It is said that they use wire brushes to take a bath.
When I heard about this, I couldn't help but have great respect for them in my heart. The Americans are so thick-skinned...
The volunteers outside the hospital, led by Xu Feng, fought with the American troops who came to reinforce. Only then did I fully feel the difference in combat habits between the US troops and the volunteers.
Although both sides were holding M1 guns, the U.S. military was just like the rich man. They didn't care whether there were people around or not and just fired... they fired all eight bullets in the chamber in one breath. With this style of firing, a squad of American soldiers could shoot their guns like bullets flying everywhere from a machine gun.
The volunteer soldiers waited until they saw clearly, then aimed and fired, and then there would be a scream from the other side! This combat habit may be because the volunteer army had been short of ammunition for a long time and emphasized "every bullet can kill an enemy"!
It's true... I was hiding in the bunker, and I couldn't help but marvel at the marksmanship of Xu Feng's troops. At least so far, I haven't found any of them who fired a blank. The Beachhead Company really lives up to its reputation!
With such a high hit rate, even though the US military had overwhelming firepower, their attacks were still beaten back again and again. In addition to leaving behind corpses, there was also the sound of "Fuck" that only I could understand.
Suddenly, there was a rumbling sound of a motor coming from the darkness ahead. I cried out inwardly, "Oh no!" and stuck my head out to see an M26 Pershing tank appearing in front of our defense line.
