    "How to fight? Let the 3rd Battalion continue to fight like it was during the day." Company Commander Wang said. "No, three tanks rushed up the hillside in the morning. There are several places with gentle slopes that need to be blasted out with gunfire to a height of 1.5 to 2 meters.  Meter-high right angle. At least the tanks cannot rush up the mountain. There are not many rockets now. The third battalion must send multiple anti-tank teams, three people per vehicle, two people to cover and suppress the infantry behind. One person goes up to bomb.  Tanks. We will also find some with good marksmanship to help suppress the infantry behind the tanks on the mountain. The machine guns should focus on suppressing the M3 heavy machine guns on enemy tanks." Then everyone summarized the problems encountered today and the methods to solve these problems.  Then Wang Baozhu went to the 3rd Battalion Headquarters. The remaining 67 people of the 5th Company, except for 17 people who stayed on the main peak, were assigned to various shifts to serve as consultants. The cooking team also brought beef, green beans, millet and rice.  After everyone finished eating, they took a break while there was no fighting. The 5th company entered the battle at 9:30 last night and has not had a break for more than 20 hours. The full moon hung in the sky, and the silver light filled the battlefield during the day.  Yang Guang was lying in the individual bunker on the right side of Shi Feng, holding a sniper rifle. He was still supervising the battlefield situation, sniping at the enemies who were carrying corpses and rescuing the wounded in the dark. These corpses and wounded were attacked by him and Wang in front of the 198th Highland.  Bao Bao and other "sharp shooters" were closely protected.  Especially the wounded who shouted for help were given extra care and were never allowed to be transported back carelessly.  Each of their desperate cries will cause great fear in the hearts of American soldiers.  Each of their calls for help is a huge blow to the hearts of the US military.  When they stopped shouting, they would fire a shot around them to force them to scream.  The enemy was very smart and quickly discovered this pattern, so he had to keep shouting, but the shouts became smaller and smaller.  The enemy used ropes to pull back more than 50 corpses and 3 wounded people, but added 10 more corpses in front of Highland 918. The US military has stopped this practice of exchanging the living for the dead. Wang Baozhu pulled Yang Guang back to Shi Fengzhong,  Force him to take a nap.  He was really sleepy. He leaned against the stone wall and fell asleep quickly.  In a fairly good house on the roadside 6 kilometers away from Highland 198, Major General Kimrit, commander of the US Second Division, was receiving Lieutenant General Walker, commander of the US Eighth Army, who came for an inspection.  Major General Kimirit was extremely frustrated and said to his boss, Lieutenant General Walker: "It is difficult to continue this battle. In the past 10 hours, we have encountered tenacious resistance from the Chinese. We have suffered nearly 3,000 casualties.  Many people accounted for 1/4 of the Second Division. More than 1,500 people died in the battle. Most of these corpses have not been evacuated yet, and there are still more than 30 wounded stranded there, lying on the frontline howling in pain. My Chief of Staff Maidi  Brigadier General Si was killed by a Chinese sniper while inspecting the forward position in the morning. There was less than one battalion left in our 6th regiment, and there was no complete organic company left, and there was no one left on the charge.  There is no hiding place. When you fire at them, they hide like mice. When your guns stop, you don't know where they come out. Although the Chinese do not have heavy weapons, they use Japanese style.  equipment, and some of the weapons we gave General Chiang, but they used these weapons to the extreme. Their soldiers shot with terrible accuracy, and they had no regard for life, whether it was their own or other people's. They used guns and weapons.  Our bazookas are extremely effective against our tanks; when you get close to them, they throw damn grenades and blow their piercing horns while rushing towards you like a pack of hungry wolves, mingling with you and having sex with each other.  The barbarity and cruelty made it difficult for us to use our heavy weapons advantage, no! We captured two wounded Chinese, and they strongly demanded that we shoot them. They firmly believed that in another twenty years,  They will become brave men again. Facing these enemies who have no regard for life and are extremely powerful and cunning, I can definitely say that there is no way to fight this battle without strong air support and a steady supply of supplies.  As it continued. In ten hours, we consumed more than 8,000 rounds of artillery shells, which was 1/3 of the ammunition we carried" Walker didn't want to listen to Kimilit's account anymore.  He said: "Kimi, we are in a very dangerous situation now. Not only did we suffer a comprehensive attack on the ground last night, our air force and navy aircraft carriers also suffered devastating blows, so now is not the time to discuss losses.  Your action is related to whether our entire Eighth Army can successfully withdraw to the south. I have ordered two regiments of the 25th Division to meet you in the south. Without air support and additional supplies, you will wipe out the Second Division.  We must also occupy Sunchuan before noon tomorrow and break through the encirclement." Kimrit looked at the short, fat, very aggressive Texan sitting in front of him and said: "Lieutenant General Walker, I can accept your order.  , but I have strong doubts about your order! It lacks scientific rigor and practical operability. Not to mention the tens of thousands of tenacious Chinese who intercepted it, it was me, with 10,000 people, and more than 1,600 wounded.  It also took several hours for the supplies to pass through a pass that was 300 meters long and less than 30 meters wide. Today we attacked for ten hours, except for the loss of three people.?? tanks and more than 3,000 casualties were paid.  Nothing was found. The front of the pass was less than 3 square kilometers. No matter how many cannons, tanks, or people I had, I couldn't launch it.  If you want to work hard, you have to have a place to work hard.  Now that there are so many casualties among the troops, is it possible for you to order me to occupy Sunchuan before noon tomorrow?  " Walker looked at his subordinates sadly and said: "It is possible for you and the US 25th Division to capture Sunchuan tonight from the north and the south, otherwise our Eighth Army will face catastrophe.  I will also go to Suchuan to see the situation there. If the situation there is better, you can also abandon the baggage and retreat south from there, waiting for orders.  " He didn't know that at this time, the 124th Division had also built an iron wall and a copper wall in Suchuan, waiting for the moonlight to wash away. The air was still filled with a strong smell of gunpowder smoke and blood. It revealed the torn apart of life and death that had happened here.  Kill. The night here is not quiet. People in 198 and 169 Highlands are busy building positions. The distant, medium, near, high, middle and low defense systems are taking shape. People always work tirelessly to build the fortifications.  More reasonable and stronger. A strengthened artillery company of the 114th Division of the 38th Army carried 4 captured m1-155mm howitzers and went north from Narukawa to reinforce the pass position of the 125th Regiment of the 42nd Army.  The 5 artillery M1-155mm howitzers of the South Korean 7th Division were given to the 125th Division with 5 basic rounds of artillery shells. This greatly enhanced the fire intensity and long-range strike capability of the 373th Regiment's pass defense.  Under the hazy moonlight, a company of the 7th Infantry Regiment of the U.S. 2nd Division gathered in the north of the open area nervously, walking on thin ice. The roar of 30 M26 tanks suddenly made the entire area noisy.  The artillery fire carried out a brief and violent bombardment of the enemy's assembly area. One after another, large-caliber 155-mm artillery shells exploded in the enemy group, causing the enemy's attack to be postponed until one day.  After the enemy's artillery fire suppressed our army's artillery fire, a large-scale attack was reorganized. Groups of US troops followed the M26 tanks and launched a final fierce attack on the 198 and 169 heights.  , a very rare formation of rows of supervisors wearing white armbands behind the assault troops. Anyone who dares to retreat is shot on the spot. The moon on the Korean Peninsula belongs to China. The moonlight is three, and four people form a group.  The anti-tank team was active at the front. The M26 tanks rushing in front were set on fire and exploded. The volunteer soldiers serving as cover went behind the US tanks to separate the tanks and the infantry behind them, or rushed behind the tanks first.  Melee with enemy infantry, allowing the comrades responsible for the explosion to calmly kill the behemoth rushing in front. The m26 tank also has an unofficial name - the m26 Pershing tank is the most advanced heavy tank in the United States.  It achieved good results in the last month of fighting on the battlefield. Just two months ago in the Korean battlefield, it was also invincible. On August 17, 1950, the M26 tank fought against the T3485 tank of the Korean People's Army for the first time.  In the battle, 13 Soviet-made T3485 tanks were destroyed in one fell swoop. The armored troops of the Korean People's Army were defeated and fled. However, when encountering the Chinese People's Volunteers today, the M26 tank lost its usefulness and faced bravery.  The volunteer anti-tank team charged fearlessly. This weight controlled by the five crew members of the commander, gunner, loader, driver, and co-driver hit a 46-ton heavy tank. The former tank killer was unable to exert its normal power.  Instead, it looks clumsy and sluggish, not as good as the more agile and fast m4a3e8 Sherman tank.  Two soldiers from the 3rd Battalion were lying in front of a roaring tank. One of them was holding a parallel blasting tube, and quickly rushed to the right side of the M26 tank and threw the parallel blasting tube in his hand into the swarm of American ants following the tank.  At the same time, he rolled on the spot, hid in a crater, and quickly fired at the U.S. troops behind him with a Thompson submachine gun. Then another soldier quickly followed up and accurately hung the gun bag on the armrest of the M26.  Then he rolled backwards and pulled out the fuse tied to the tree stick.  A dazzling ball of fire immediately exploded in the middle of the night, and in an instant, gunpowder smoke filled the surroundings of the M26.  Countless fiery red fragments were thrown into the air like a blooming fireworks.
