Chapter Sixteen: The Strange Five Days

  After meeting the 335th Regiment at Feihu Mountain, they took advantage of the night to retreat to Jiulongli, preparing to set up defenses and lure the enemy there. The next day, the puppet army and American military were shocked to discover that the enemy on Feihu Mountain had withdrawn, and they couldn't help but feel overjoyed. With the cooperation of reporters, newspapers and broadcasts immediately began to propagate the "unprecedented victory" of the "allied forces", claiming that their offensive was fierce, our troops were low on ammunition and morale, and were being defeated and retreating northward.

  When Zhang Dabiao passed by a highway surrounded by towering mountains, he looked at the huge rocks on the cliffs on both sides of the road with a thoughtful expression. He said to the guard beside him, "Go and call Commissar Xue She of the Engineer Battalion." "Yes"

  "Can you blow down all the rocks on both sides of the road, smashing them onto the highway?" Zhang Dabiao pointed to the huge boulders on the mountainside. "Guaranteed completion of the task," said Xue Shehui, saluting with a military salute before turning and running off.

  "Hey""Hey"You stupid fool, I'm telling you to open a few artillery holes on the mountain ridge now, and then when the enemy comes, detonate it and blow down the rocks."Xue Shehui looked at the captain, rubbing his head with a silly smile.

  The engineering company in the team used drilling and blasting to open many gun holes on both sides of the mountain cliff, then installed nearly 400 kilograms of yellow acidic explosives that were more powerful than TNT. They also buried more than 200 kilograms of explosives on the highway behind them. It was turned into an electrically fired mine, leaving only one squad hiding in a small cave to wait for the enemy.

  A regiment of puppet army followed, along with an M41 Walker light tank company of the US military. Major Mc looked at the winding road in the middle of the mountain ridge, feeling a bit apprehensive, fearing that our army would set up another ambush here. So he said to Li Cuishan, the commander of the puppet regiment, "Li, do you want to send some soldiers to scout out the mountain?" Although Li Cuishan didn't understand what Mc was saying, he saw him pointing at the towering cliff.

  In his heart, he couldn't help but sigh that smart people always see things similarly. The two reconnaissance teams of over 40 men each then advanced to search the two mountain cliffs separately. Crouching down, holding their guns, with fingers on the triggers, they carefully searched every nook and cranny of the rugged terrain, while in his heart, he kept cursing Li Cuishan, thinking that if there were enemy troops ambushing in the mountains, they would be done for.

  Then, the tense Park Dae-seok put his finger on the trigger again, without wiping off the cold sweat that kept forming on his forehead, ready to fire at any moment. When the platoon leader led Park Dae-seok and over 40 others to the top of the mountain, seeing no one there and no signs of construction, they couldn't help but let their guard down, and so they headed back the same way. "Report, after a thorough search, we did not find any enemy troops or abandoned fortifications on the mountain." "Good"

  Li Cuishan, who had put down his mind, ordered the convoy to move forward again, with American tanks leading the way. When the enemy's convoy reached the middle of the mountain cliff, Squad Leader Wang Quanhai, hiding in a cave, suddenly pressed the detonator in his hand, and after a loud rumbling sound, countless smoke and dust formed in the valley and rushed straight into the sky.

  Li Cui Shan stared blankly, watching as the cars and people in front of him were blown into the air, watching as the tanks and cars disappeared into the smoke billowing out of the valley.

  At this moment, Park Dae-suk's two feet were crushed under the giant stone and had been severed. The unbearable pain made him faint again. Looking at his own blood flowing out from under the giant stone, Park Dae-suk shouted for help in a frenzy. When the dust of broken stones dispersed into the air, he came to Park Dae-suk's side.

  Li Cui Shan looked at the tank and convoy buried under the giant stone, tears streaming down his face. And beside him, Park Dae-seok had already shed all his blood, his eyes staring straight south towards home, with an endless longing in them.

  But Lieutenant Mike inside the tank did not die, the giant stone that fell from the sky only crushed the turret, also crushing the gunner and machine gunner on the turret, but also pressed down the hatch cover at the front of the vehicle. Now he and the tank commander are trapped inside the vehicle, unable to escape, with fresh blood constantly dripping into the tank's body.

  The only sound was the two men stopping talking, as the increasingly foul air made them extremely uncomfortable. Mack looked at Tom, with whom he had been through thick and thin for many years, then pulled out his M1911 pistol and shot him dead. But he didn't wait for the people who came to save him, instead leaving behind a scribbled "MacArthur, you son of a bitch, you big liar" on his notebook before slowly suffocating to death. The enemy lost over 500 men and nearly 30 vehicles, including 8 tanks.

  After the US military and puppet army cleared the boulders blocking the road, three days had passed. The enemy carefully crossed each relatively high mountain peak, conducting firepower reconnaissance in advance, and also conducted careful searches with reconnaissance teams.

  When the enemy's 60-strong reconnaissance team entered Zhang Dabiao's carefully set ambush, the fierce artillery and machine gun fire instantly made the reconnaissance team people and horses overturned, with heavy casualties. The cars used as cover were blown up one by one by recoilless guns, and then the enemies below became human torches and ran out from below with mournful cries. Those who ran directly from under the car were immediately shot into sieves by dense bullets, and the enemy's reconnaissance vanguard was quickly annihilated.

  Li Cuishan's eyes blazed with fierce fire upon hearing the gunfire. The US military aircraft were quickly contacted, and Li Cuishan dispatched a battalion, which charged towards the enemy on the mountain under the cover of intense artillery fire from over 70-80 large-caliber guns. Meanwhile, Zhang Dabiao had already led his troops to a distant mountain forest, ready to watch a good show. When the puppet army's battalion of over 800 men successfully rushed up the mountain top, they strangely did not find any enemies, only some trenches and shell casings, and not even any camouflage.

  At this time, the hum of aircraft came from the sky, and then a group of US military planes emerged from the white clouds. In retaliation for the enemy's use of giant stones to smash people in the last "inhumane" act, the US military dispatched 16 "Moss" fast bombers and 16 P-51 Mustang fighters loaded with rockets.

  Seeing the powerful fleet of Allied aircraft, many puppet soldiers took off their military caps and cheered at the planes in the sky.

  "Hey, Jack, look they're waving at us!" "No" "No" "No" "Bill, last time I was also deceived by those damn **army, last time they were driving our tanks and hanging our airborne identification flags! The one below must be fake, I want to avenge my neighbor Mike."

  The conversation in the intercom was heard by all the planes, and then high-explosive shells, napalm bombs, and rocket shells were fired at the enemy. The P-51 Mustangs, equipped with six 12.7mm heavy machine guns, made low-altitude strafing runs, cutting down the enemy troops who had escaped from the sea of flames into two segments.

  "Throw a bit more, blow these sons of bitches up!" Zhang Dabiao yelled incessantly through the telescope.

  Then a regiment of over 800 men of the puppet army was annihilated, Li Cuishan was court-martialed for dereliction of duty, and the US military's ace Jack Major was demoted to Captain.

  Zhang Dabiao was recorded in history for being the first person in the world to annihilate over 1,300 enemies without suffering any casualties.
