Wearing dramas starts from Changjin Lake

Chapter 27 Going to the Water Gate Bridge (asking for a ticket)
"Come here to get the equipment!" Mei Sheng yelled.

Yu Congrong hung an M3 submachine gun on his body, and another M3 carbine. In the end, he was not satisfied, and carried another machine gun on his back. His greedy appearance was like that of a local rich man.

Ping He picked out a Springfield 1903 sniper rifle. He was very rare for the thick and long scope on it.But he couldn't bear to throw away his original [-] big cover, so he carried it along with him.

The "captured" guns and ammunition were quickly distributed, and the Seventh Company changed drastically in an instant. This equipment and this firepower are really blossoming.

The Seventh Company has replaced new equipment, and there are many old equipment that are not needed, which are all given to the 1st Battalion for "keeping".

Looking at the new equipment of the Seventh Company, many people in the 1st Battalion were jealous.But they all knew that Qilian was different from them, and was carrying out a particularly important secret mission.

In addition to these, Gao Fei also took out other items in the warehouse: a hundred beef cans and a medical kit.

The medical box has been opened and checked. There are many things in it, including gauze, bandages, gloves, adhesive tape, hemostatic scissors, cotton, a small bottle of alcohol, suture needles/threads, etc.

In addition, the Seventh Company also seized a half-track vehicle. Due to the large amount of equipment, in order to reduce the load, Mei Sheng decided to put part of the supplies and equipment on this vehicle and drive it.

Without resting for too long, Wu Qianli received the latest order from the headquarters.

"Seventh Company, I am the headquarters, please reply."

"I am the Seventh Company, please tell the headquarters."

"The [-]rd Battalion and [-]th Company of the [-]st Attack Regiment blew up the bridge last night and suffered heavy losses. I order you to rush to support!"

"Yes, Qilian received it!"

After the communication was over, Wu Qianli led the Seventh Company to continue to the Shuimen Bridge.

Shuimen Bridge, actually called "Shuimen Bridge" is not exact.

It is just a dam located in the remnant of Huangcaoling, leading the water of Changjin Lake downstream. It was originally a power station for generating electricity.

Due to the large drop to the east of the Gaima Plateau in northern North Korea, the water from Changjin Lake is an ideal place for hydropower generation.

Therefore, during the Japanese occupation period, the Japanese built this dam, and then used four thick reinforced concrete pipes to divert the water from Changjin Lake to the foot of the mountain. A total of four hydropower stations were built on the mountainside and at the foot of the mountain. Come generate electricity.

This so-called No. [-] power station can be opened to traffic, and then connected to the north-south highway, it looks like a "bridge".

The U.S. Marine Corps called it "the bridge over the water pipe (gate)", so the name "Water Gate Bridge" came into being.

At the end of Huangcaoling, there is a cliff from west to east, and the mountainside is a winding road across it. The road connects to the dam (Shuimen Bridge), and below it are four large cement water pipes, and below it is a steep abyss.

The Watergate Bridge is indeed a natural danger, and it is indeed the life gate for the first US Marine Division to escape to the east coast port.

The chiefs of the Ninth Corps certainly knew the importance of this dam or bridge.

They originally thought that as long as the bridge was blown up, the retreat of the First Marine Division would be cut off, and the First Marine Division would be unable to escape.

It is a pity that in the end, the U.S. military directly used a transport plane to hoist eight sets of 8-ton prefabricated bridge components, and in a short period of time, another bridge was rebuilt.

The volunteers sacrificed countless fresh lives, but they still failed to stop the retreat of the US troops. More than 1000 vehicles and tanks, and more than 1 US soldiers passed through the new bridge and retreated towards Xingnan Port. The volunteers arranged In the end, there was a hole in the net of heaven and earth.

They have tried their best, and no one can blame them. This is not a military gap, but a difference in industrialization and technological advancement between the two countries. At that time, the United States was indeed far ahead.

After a difficult trek, Qilian finally arrived at the destination of the trip - Shuimen Bridge!

Before approaching the Shuimen Bridge, the sound of gunfire was vaguely heard.

"Is it Jiulian?" Mei Sheng asked.

No one answered, if there is no other unit to carry out the task of bombing the bridge, it must be the Ninth Company.

"Run and move forward!" Wu Qianli led his men towards Shuimen Bridge.

Qilian rushed up halfway up the mountain, and could see the Shuimen Bridge built on the cliff in the distance, and four thick water pipes leading down the mountain.

And the people from the Ninth Company below are blowing up the bridge.

The U.S. troops guarding the bridge fired fiercely, even using flamethrowers.

The people of Jiulian couldn't attack at all.

"Yu Congrong, where is the radio station? Can you contact the headquarters?"

Yu Congrong quickly removed the radio from his back.

Mei Sheng took it, checked it and said, "The battery is probably frozen, and it can't be turned on for the time being."

"Fire cover, save people first."

Wu Qianli left a word and rushed forward.

The soldiers of the Seventh Company have already formed a tacit agreement on what to do in one sentence.

"Firepower platoon, follow up." Yu Congrong took the lead and rushed forward with the firepower platoon.

Father Lei took the artillery platoon and quickly found a bombing position: "The first two and the last three are mainly to suppress the enemy's heavy firepower, and cover the company commander to save people."

"Yes." The artilleryman quickly placed the mortar in place.

"Let's eat scallion pancakes today, dinner is ready!"

"Boom, boom, boom..."

Ten 60mm mortars roared and fired.

Ping He and Gao Fei had already climbed up to a shooting position on the hillside, where the field of vision was wide and it was most suitable for sniping.

"First hit the heavy machine gun on the left. I'll hit the main gunner, and you'll hit again when the sub-machine gunner fills in."

"Okay." Gao Fei agreed.

Ping He set up his sniper rifle and aimed at the head of a heavy machine gunner.

"boom!"

A bullet traveled a distance of 600 meters and hit the enemy in the forehead.

head shot!

One shot kills.

Gao Fei could clearly see through the [-]x mirror that the enemy's deputy shooter dragged the main shooter's body aside, and went up to fill it in fear.

Just then, "Bang!"

A bullet flew out.

Like Ping He, he was headshot with one shot.

Wu Qianli held a submachine gun and fired while charging.

"Da da da……"

Yu Congrong was beside him, taking cover.

Mei Sheng wanted to hand over the radio station to Wu Wanli, but unexpectedly, Wu Wanli put it back.

"Instructor, as a commander, you can't always think about rushing forward. You have to sit in command and take charge of the overall situation. Besides, your eyes haven't fully recovered yet."

Wu Wanli took out ten grenades from the ammunition box and hung them on his waist.

Mei Sheng looked at his back and asked, "Who told you this?"

"you guess."

Wu Wanli opened a grenade and threw it out with the speed of running forward.

"Whoosh~"

The grenade flew over a distance of more than 100 meters, and fell into a machine gun position on the side of the bridge head.

"Grenade!"

A U.S. Army soldier just yelled, Boom!
The grenade exploded, and the flesh and machine guns were blown away together.

"Rescue the wounded first, all retreat."

While firing, Wu Qianli ordered the Seventh Company to search for the wounded Ninth Company soldiers.

"Company commander, all the wounded have been rescued." Yu Congrong dragged a wounded soldier back.

But Wu Qianli knew that some seriously injured might be unconscious or unable to make a sound, so they had to search carefully.

"Check one more side, don't leave one behind!"

"Yes."

The soldiers of the Seventh Company searched the corners and corners at the foot of the mountain.

Ping He watched Gao Fei put away his sniper rifle and asked, "Where are you going?"

"I saw Tan Ziwei. He seems to be seriously injured. I'll go down and save him."

He kept searching the bottom with the [-]x mirror, and finally found Tan Ziwei who was curled up behind a big rock.

Gao Fei left the sniper position and found Tan Ziwei along a ditch formed naturally by the fusion of snow and water.

When Tan Ziwei was blowing up the bridge last night, he was pierced through his stomach by a stone flying at explosive speed.

He was seriously injured, but lacked medicine and did not receive timely treatment. Now he carried out the task of blowing up the bridge with his injuries, and he has survived until now.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Tan Ziwei was always on guard with his submachine gun in his hand, and it was Gao Fei who saw the cat approaching, and his hanging heart suddenly relaxed.

Gao Fei hurried forward: "Talk about the battalion commander, reinforcements from the Seventh Company are here."

"Okay, good to come. Jiulian failed to blow up the bridge last night, and Qilian will continue to blow up the bridge in place of Jiulian."

Tan Ziwei's voice was a little weak, and he deliberately curled up to cover the wound on his stomach so that Gao Fei would not find out.

"What do you do, I know you're hurt."

Gao Fei went up to check Tan Ziwei's wound.

Tan Ziwei grabbed his hand: "It's dangerous here, retreat to a safe place first."

He was worried that something might happen to Gao Fei when he was saving him, so he shifted his position first.

Goofy nodded.

There were two more footsteps, Wu Qianli and Yu Congrong had also found this place.

"Platoon leader Yu, the commander of the third battalion is injured and needs a stretcher."

Gao Fei was worried that the moving would cause secondary injury, so he asked Yu Congrong to get the stretcher.

Wu Qianli heard the words and asked with concern: "Where is the injury? How is it?"

Tan Ziwei said calmly: "Stomach, explosive stones, penetrating injuries. But it doesn't matter, I won't die for the time being."

The lighter the description, the more serious it is.Because Wu Qianli knows that the speed of the explosive stone is comparable to that of a bullet, because the stone is much larger than the bullet, and the lethality 'caused by the wound is more severe than the bullet.

Yu Congrong came over with a stretcher, and the three carried Tan Ziwei back together.
