Join the top ace army at the beginning of the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea

At dusk on November 11, the U.S. 28nd Division, which received the combat order, set out from Jungouli under the leadership of division commander Hart and went directly to Samsoli to prepare for a battle with the 2th Regiment of the 120th Division stationed there.

At this time, the 358th Regiment was in the temporary regiment command post in the small village of Sansoli. Political Commissar Yu Chengguang was discussing with the regiment commander He Daming.

"Old He, why is this American so slow? It's been a whole day and he hasn't even arrived at the third institute yet. I'm so tired of waiting."

When He Daming heard what Yu Chengguang said, he laughed on the spot.

"Hahaha, Lao He, why are you so anxious? Are you eager to eat dumplings? Don't worry, the US military will be here soon.

So far, a US military reconnaissance company has come to our site, and I believe most of them will be here soon."

Yu Chengguang was quite surprised to hear the news and immediately asked He Daming,

"Lao He, this happened so late, how come I don't know anything about it?"

He Daming smiled again.

"Old Yu, there are many things you don't know.

Anyway, don't worry, the US 9th Army will definitely attack Sansoli because this is the only way for them to escape to the south.

Unless they can break up into smaller groups, abandon all their baggage, and come directly through the dense forests on the mountains on both sides of Sansoli, then we really won’t be able to handle them with such a small number of people.

But I think the US Ninth Army doesn't have such courage and awareness, and they are reluctant to give up their equipment and baggage, so they will definitely choose to attack by force. It will be a hard battle next. As long as our 358th Regiment successfully defends until the friendly forces arrive, we will have accomplished a great feat this time."

When Yu Chengguang heard He Daming's passionate speech, his heart was also burning with excitement.

At 6 o'clock in the evening, the 2st Armored Regiment of the 1nd Division of the US Army had arrived at the frontier area of ​​​​Sansoli. They advanced along the road towards Sansoli. At this time, a group of US soldiers could see the towering mountains on both sides of the road. The slopes of the mountains on both sides were almost 90 degrees. This terrain was very suitable for ambush. After traveling for a distance.

Henry, the commander of the 1st Armored Regiment, saw a hinterland beside the road, which was Sansoli. However, there were barricades placed on the road at this time.

When he saw these simple wooden barriers, he didn't take them seriously and immediately ordered the tanks to move forward.

However, he was shocked and surprised that he had obviously underestimated the opponent's commander's brain. The effect of these wooden barricades was no less than that of iron barricades. They actually effectively blocked the advance of their tanks. Although the collision between iron and wood could not cause any damage to the tanks, their special triangular structure was directly embedded in the ground, forming a roadblock that prevented the tanks from moving forward at all.

The tank driver sitting in the cab stepped on the accelerator until it was almost smoking. The huge engine roared, but it was all in vain.

This scene surprised and annoyed Henry. He immediately ordered his infantry to start moving and clearing these wooden barricades.

At this time, every move of the American troops on the road below the mountain was within the sight of He Daming on the mountain. He felt that the time was almost right, and immediately issued an order to attack.

"Brothers, hit me hard!"

The M1911A4 heavy machine gun mounted on the mountain began to spit out "tongues of fire" towards the bottom of the mountain.

“Da…Da…Da…Da…”

Due to the nearly vertical angle, there is no shelter on the road.

These American soldiers who were trying to move the barricades were completely exposed to the sight of the 358nd Battalion of the 2th Regiment and were instantly beaten into pieces.

The sudden attack frightened the armored regiment's commander Henry so much that he immediately retracted his head into the tank's cockpit.

He immediately commanded the soldiers of the armored regiment via walkie-talkie to start counterattacking on the mountain. However, due to the slope, the tanks were completely useless against the volunteer soldiers of the 358nd Battalion of the 2th Regiment on the mountain. They were like an abandoned iron turtle.

Relying solely on the tanks' built-in machine guns to fight back would only make them sitting ducks for the Volunteer Army's shooting.

In just the first wave of attack, the 2nd Division of the United States suffered a loss. Hart, the commander of the 2nd Division of the United States who was supervising the battle in the rear, was extremely angry when he saw that his armored regiment, which had always been invincible, suffered a setback at the very first moment.

At this time, on the hillside, He Daming and Political Commissar Yu Chengguang were watching the specific battle situation at the foot of the mountain.

Yu Chengguang was surprised and shocked when he saw through the telescope that the wooden barricades arranged by He Daming actually effectively blocked the advance of US tanks.

At first, he didn't quite understand why He Daming was so stubborn in setting up this seemingly useless wooden obstacle. Now he realized that this thing was simply a nightmare for armored tanks.

This made him curious about He Daming. He didn't expect that his old partner could come up with such a thing.

"Lao He, I didn't expect your chevaux de frise to be so effective. Where did you come up with the idea?"

When He Daming heard Yu Chengguang's question, he immediately explained.

"Old Yu, I told you to read more books on weekdays instead of playing in the mud. This is not what I thought, but it has been used before on other battlefields. This is called the Czech Hedgehog, also known as the Iron Chestnut. I just used local materials and improved it a little.

Of course, the main reason is that the US military tanks are Xiafei light tanks, which are not powerful enough. If they are replaced with Tiger heavy tanks, my wooden chevaux de frise will not be able to stop them.

I also had an idea for a set of anti-tank cones, but time was tight and I didn't have the right materials, so I had to choose the simplest method.

Oh, and one more thing, Lao Yu, this kind of arrangement can only be used in places with narrow terrain and space. If it is an open area, these chevaux de frise are just for show."

After hearing He Daming's explanation, Yu Chengguang suddenly realized. He felt that he had learned a new trick invisibly.

When the commander of the 2nd U.S. Division, Hart, saw that his armored regiment's attack had failed, he immediately gathered his artillery regiment, deployed 8mm caliber howitzers 155 kilometers away from Sansoli, and began to launch a fierce artillery bombardment on the mountains on both sides of the mountain road along Sansoli.

As these shells whizzed in, deafening explosions were heard from the mountains on both sides of the three institutes.

He Daming seemed to have anticipated the enemy's attack and immediately ordered all the volunteer soldiers of the 358nd Battalion of the 2th Regiment to move to another position under the cover of the dense forest on the mountain.

The U.S. military's artillery attack was unable to effectively lock onto the target due to the dense forests on the mountain. It only launched targeted artillery attacks on the mountains and did not cause any substantial damage to the 358nd Battalion of the 2th Regiment. However, it temporarily suppressed the firepower counterattack of the 358nd Battalion of the 2th Regiment.
