Siheyuan: A Family of Loyal and Brave People

Chapter 76 Surrender and Prisoners

The charge is a traditional military bugle call of our army. As soon as the bugle sounds, all soldiers will launch a swift and fierce attack on the nearest enemy at the risk of their lives.

Not only our soldiers, but even the enemy has a deep feeling about the charge.

Amid the loud bugle calls, those fearless soldiers who dared to attack with their chests against the muzzles of guns were an indelible nightmare for the United Nations forces.

Therefore, when the charge sounded and Cheng Hao led his troops out of the position with bayonets in hand, the miscellaneous soldiers near the position were shocked. They threw away their armor and turned around to flee without caring about anything else, and they couldn't even fire back.

"Damn it, go back, go back!"

When the American soldiers supervising the battle in the rear saw the miscellaneous soldiers retreating, they immediately opened fire and shot several deserters in an attempt to stabilize the situation.

However, the miscellaneous soldiers who were attacked from both sides had already lost their hearts and minds. They did not care about anything else except fleeing everywhere.

"Hold the line, ignore the fleeing soldiers, and shoot directly at the enemy!"

The American officers acted decisively and ordered their soldiers to open fire on the volunteers who were engaged in hand-to-hand combat, without any regard for the lives of their friendly forces.

"But, sir..."

"No buts, just follow the order!"

Justice does not control wealth, and kindness does not control soldiers. If a retreat route is not opened, all the American soldiers left here will be surrounded and annihilated. As for the lives of those miscellaneous soldiers, the American officers did not care at all.

"Da da da……"

Driven by the desire to escape, the American soldiers opened fire at full force, and bullets rained down on the soldiers of both armies who were fighting on the front line.

The volunteer soldiers who were fighting hand-to-hand with the enemy were taken away unexpectedly, and many miscellaneous soldiers who did not have time to escape also died with them.

After Cheng Hao stabbed an enemy soldier to death, he held him in front of him as a shield, turned around and shouted, "Retreat, retreat!"

The U.S. military went crazy and even attacked its own troops. If they didn’t withdraw, they would probably be wiped out.

After receiving the order, the volunteer soldiers who rushed out of the position hurriedly retreated to the position.

Cheng Hao picked up a submachine gun on the ground with his right foot, held the gun in one hand and held a shield in the other, performing a classic re-enactment, pouring bullets at the U.S. troops in the distance to cover the retreat of the volunteer soldiers.

After suffering heavy casualties, the volunteer soldiers finally withdrew to their positions.

Cheng Hao counted the number of people and found that there were only a dozen people left, and almost everyone was injured. The only lucky thing was that during the retreat, a few clever soldiers picked up a few guns with bullets, so they didn't need to fight hand-to-hand with the enemy in the next wave.

"Company commander!"

Cheng Hao had just taken a breath when a dozen people crawled towards him from the right wing position.

"Why are you here? Didn't I tell you to guard the right side?!"

Cheng Hao frowned and asked sternly.

There are also not many defenders on the right wing, and if so many people are mobilized at once, it might shake the defense line.

"Captain, the battle on the right is going well, and the deputy captain is afraid something might happen on the left, so he asked us to come over!"

Cheng Hao's expression eased a little when he heard the good news. The situation on the left wing was unfavorable. What he feared most was that problems would occur on both sides at the same time, and then there would be no way to save the situation.

"Hurry up and distribute the ammunition. Everyone, take your positions. The enemy is preparing to attack!"

Cheng Hao did not hesitate and immediately began to assign people to reorganize the defense line.

The American officers in the distance saw Cheng Hao fleeing back to the position, and then looked at the miscellaneous soldiers who kept pouring back and stamped their feet in anger.

"Damn it, these idiots deserve to die!"

Cheng Hao's desperate charge was a helpless act, but by some strange coincidence it had a good effect.

Now that the miscellaneous soldiers were repelled, they attacked the American soldiers in the opposite direction, causing a considerable impact. For a while, it was difficult for the US military to launch an attack immediately.

The American soldiers had to first clear out the fleeing soldiers who were blocking their way, otherwise a collision would only lead to an accident.

However, every minute and every second on the battlefield is extremely important.

During the delay, more and more miscellaneous soldiers arrived at the scene, accompanied by the earth-shaking shouts of the volunteer soldiers.

"Sir, we are surrounded!"

The American soldiers immediately realized that the situation was not good. They had expected the front battlefield to collapse, and that was why they chose to retreat in advance. However, they did not expect the front battlefield to collapse so quickly and so unexpectedly.

"Sir, should we continue to charge, or..."

The casualties were heavy and their fighting spirit was gone. The surrounding terrain was flat and there was no time for the US troops to set up positions. In addition, they were surrounded on all sides and it was impossible to escape.

Faced with a situation where they were sure to die, many American soldiers considered surrendering.

As soldiers, they had done everything they could on the battlefield. They were unlucky and had no choice but to surrender in order to save their lives.

"Damn it, how can we...how can we surrender to a group of yellow monkeys!

This is simply… simply…”

The American officer was furious, but looking at the eyes of the soldiers around him who were eager to survive, he could do nothing but sigh.

The battle has already been lost if the army loses its morale. There is really no need to add meaningless casualties.

"You surrender."

The American officer sighed in frustration and said helplessly.

The surrounding American soldiers all breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the order.

The only difficulty in life is death. When it comes to the moment of life and death, they certainly hope to survive.

Furthermore, given the Volunteer Army’s tradition of treating prisoners well, there is a high probability that they will be able to return home alive after the war.

When I thought about being able to return alive, honor and dignity no longer mattered.

Immediately, many American soldiers let go of their guns, letting them fall to the ground, and prepared to raise their hands in preparation for surrender.

At this moment, the American officer looked deeply at the pistol in his hand, then put the muzzle of the gun into his mouth and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

There was a loud bang, and the American officer's body shook slightly and then fell to the ground.

Life is precious, but some people value honor over life. He could allow his soldiers to surrender and survive, but he could not allow himself to be captured.

All the American soldiers present were stunned. Many of them were shocked by their superiors' courage and tried to hold their guns tightly again.

However, before they could recover, a loud charge was sounded from the front.

Immediately, Cheng Hao led the soldiers who were still able to run and rushed forward, shouting at the dazed American soldiers: "Put down your weapons and surrender immediately!"

Cheng Hao, who was resting in the position, saw some American soldiers dropping their weapons and instantly understood the enemy's situation. After seeing the enemy officer shoot himself, he no longer hesitated and immediately led his men to charge down.

The American soldiers could not understand Chinese, but they could understand what Cheng Hao meant.

Looking at the resolute faces of Cheng Hao and his group, and then at the body of their superior on the ground, their last bit of courage to resist disappeared completely. They threw away their guns, raised their hands and squatted on the ground obediently.

In this way, a strange scene appeared on the battlefield. More than one hundred American soldiers were captured by less than one-tenth of the number of volunteers.
