Chapter 25 Reconnaissance (seeking support)

Shuiyunzhuang sounds like the name of a village, but it is actually a town built at the foot of a mountain.

This town is only a little bigger than ordinary villages. Because of the war, the people in the town have already run away, and many houses have been destroyed by shells.

When Zhang Aiguo rushed here with the first battalion, he didn't expect that the town had already been taken by the enemy first.

If Qilian wants to reach the Shuimen Bridge, he must either take a detour and climb over a mountain in front of him, or go to Shuiyunzhuang.

The plan can't keep up with the changes, and now Qilian wants to quickly reach the Shuimen Bridge, the only shortcut is to break through Shuiyunzhuang.

Wu Qianli, Mei Sheng, Lei Dad, Yu Congrong and other platoon leaders got together immediately to discuss the countermeasures.

Papa Lei said: "Since it is the enemy's reinforcements, let's kill him casually and rush over directly."

Mei Sheng was a little worried: "Will it scare the snake? If the enemy knows that we have crossed here, will they guess that we are going to the Shuimen Bridge?"

Wu Qianli looked at the map laid out on the ground, thought for a moment, and said: "We must first find out the weapons, equipment and staffing of this group of enemies. If it is a small force, we will eat it. If it is the main force of the enemy , we can only take another detour.”

Upon hearing this, Yu Congrong said excitedly: "The company commander means that we will touch the whistle tonight and conduct an investigation."

Ping He teased him: "Yu Congrong, you get excited when you hear about the sneak attack."

Yu Congrong held the submachine gun in his arms, full of air: "I am the platoon leader of the firepower platoon. Apart from charging into the battle, what I like most is sneak attacking and touching the sentry."

Mei Sheng asked: "Have the investigators made up their minds?"

"Gaofei, Wanli, and me. It's not good to have too many people for investigation."

When Yu Congrong heard that the company commander didn't take him this time, he immediately exploded: "Company commander, why didn't you take me? I can't compare with others. In the seventh company, my investigative ability is one of the best."

Wu Qianli smiled slightly and explained: "Yu Congrong, I know you are amazing, but do we veterans want to give them two a chance to learn?"

"That's right." Yu Congrong stopped talking sullenly.

Mei Sheng suggested: "Just in case, I suggest that Dad Lei lead the artillery platoon to lay an ambush in advance, Yu Congrong lead the fire platoon to respond, and Pinghe, you use the gun that Gao Fei picked up to be in charge of observation and vigilance. , because that gun can see far.”

"Yes." Everyone agreed.

The deployment was very careful, and Wu Qianli agreed very much: "That's it, I will inform Gao Fei and Wu Wanli to make preparations first."

The tasks of each row and each class were quickly communicated.

Gao Fei and Wu Wanli sort out the equipment to be carried.

After all, it was his first time investigating, and Wu Wanli was a little excited, but also a little nervous.

"Gao Fei, are you nervous?"

"It's okay, don't worry, your brother is here."

It would be a lie to say that they are not nervous. They have to go to the entrance of the town at night to check the enemy's defensive position, and even need to go into the town to check the enemy's hidden firepower.

If you make a little movement and expose it, you may not be able to get out.

Gao Fei handed over the Springfield sniper rifle to Pinghe, and wiped the big eight grains carefully.

Ping He took the Springfield sniper rifle and studied it carefully.

He had seen this kind of gun once in the warehouse of the regiment headquarters, and it was captured by another company.But at that time, the scope on it was not so long, so big, and so thick.

He likes this scope very much. It is clear to see things 1000 meters away from the inside. If you use this kind of gun in the future, I dare not say one shot at a time, at least two shots at a time, otherwise I am sorry for this Sight.

Wu Qianli put away the pencil stubs, notebooks and binoculars for drawing, and took out his beloved pistol from his waist to wipe it again.

He didn't put the gun in the holster again, but handed it to Gao Fei: "Gao Fei, you can hold it. In case of exposure, a melee pistol is best."

Gao Fei didn't answer: "Let's give it to Wanli."

Wu Wanli said beside him, "Brother, why don't you give it to me?"

Wu Qianli patted his head: "You have brother to protect you, so you don't need it."

With that said, he stuffed the pistol into Goofy.

Gao Fei didn't refuse anymore, thinking that after finishing fighting this group of enemies, he would give the equipment in the system warehouse to the Seventh Company in the form of "capture".

Night falls.

Wu Qianli led Gao Fei and Wu Wanli and slowly crawled towards the entrance of the town. The three of them were all wearing white cloaks, so they were not easy to be spotted in the snow.

Outside the town entrance of Shuiyunzhuang, there is a very wide open space.

The searchlight kept shining back and forth, and the three of them could only wait for the light of the searchlight to pass, and then quickly climbed forward.

When they climbed to only 100 meters away from the mouth of the town, they found a ditch.

The ditch was not deep. Gao Fei guessed that it might be used by the townspeople to irrigate the ground. After it was abandoned, there was no water in it, and a thick layer of snow had accumulated.

The three climbed into the ditch.

Hiding in the ditch, Wu Qianli observed carefully with a telescope, then took out a pencil tip and drew a picture in his notebook.

The picture is very simple, with a line and two firepower points on it.

"Did you find out?" Wu Qianli deliberately tested the two of them.

Wu Wanli took the binoculars, observed carefully for a moment, then shook his head: "Where is it? Why didn't I find it?"

"Gao Fei, come and take a look. I told you before that before the battle, all the firepower points are hidden, but they are not without trace. You need to observe carefully."

Gao Fei took the binoculars and observed the small town in front of him.

The town is built on the hillside, with two small houses at the front and a two-story building at the back, like a restaurant or hotel, and the searchlights are set on the top of the second floor.Further back, there are several rows of houses and streets in a patchwork order.

"Gao Fei, Wanli, you must be careful when doing investigations, and you must never let go of any suspicious places. Take a closer look at the two houses in front." Wu Qianli pointed at the side.

The two houses in front didn't look abnormal, but when he re-observed, he found that the wall of the house on the left was half collapsed, but the roof was reinforced with vertical logs to keep it from falling down.

It’s tricky!
Looking at the house on the right, although the second window was sealed with bricks, there were a few holes left.

found it!
Gao Fei was certain that these two houses were the two firepower points set up by the enemy on the periphery.

He pointed at Wu Qianli respectively.

Seeing that Gao Fei had found it, Wu Qianli said to Wu Wanli, "Did you find it?"

"Well, I found it. The half wall of the house on the left can be used as a defense, and the brick hole on the right is the machine gun port."

Wu Wanli is very smart, and soon discovered the tricks of the two houses.

"Okay. Let's investigate in another direction."

The three moved along the ditch to the back of the town.

After observing, Wu Qianli said: "I don't know whether the enemy commander is careless or stupid, but he only set up an open post, not even a secret post."

Mingshao is where the searchlight was just now.

He pointed to his feet: "This is a blind spot for surveillance by the sentry, and the searchlights can't reach it at all. If you enter the town from here, the enemy won't find it at all."

Draw an arrow on the notebook to mark the place from which assaults can be carried out in the future.

After investigating the situation outside the town, they entered the town.

It was already late at night, except for a small team that patrolled every hour, there were four guards standing guard, and the rest of the soldiers were basically asleep.

"See the place where the two flags are erected? That's probably the enemy's headquarters."

Wu Qianli hid in the shadow of the corner, pointing and drawing.

"The two flags are different, which confirms what Battalion Commander Zhang said. There are Americans and British in this enemy army."

Now, through clues and his understanding of this period of history, Gao Fei has almost guessed who the enemies who came to Shuiyun Village are.

After the [-]st Marine Division withdrew from Xiajieyuli Airport, Mario was very anxious. In order to open up the retreat as soon as possible, he ordered the [-]st Marine Regiment stationed in the Gutuli area to immediately send troops to reinforce.

However, the Marine Regiment has now been bitten by the 20th Army, and it is difficult to protect itself, so there are no support personnel.

After the coordination of many generals of the United Nations Army, Colonel Puller, the head of the First Marine Regiment, put together a contingent of 922 people.

This task force is composed of a part of the US Army and a part of the British Army, equipped with 29 M26 tanks, and went to Xiajieyu for support.

This task force is undoubtedly extremely powerful in terms of firepower, and they are all carefully selected "elites".

But there was one thing they miscalculated. The commander sent by this task force was Lieutenant Colonel Drysdale of the British Marine Corps. This person was actually a brave man.
