Courtyard House: He Yuzhu Joins the Army, Presses an AK-47 with One Hand

Not surprising.

Sun Bing sent scouts ahead to explore and found a well-hidden grove of trees. The entire 10th Company camped there for a short rest.

Constantly on the go.

Another bloody battle was fought.

Everyone needs rest.

The 10th Company has a total of 4 platoons, and each platoon takes turns patrolling and resting.

One day and one night passed.

Nothing happened.

Early in the morning, Sun Bing, the company commander of the 10th Company, and Han Wu, the political instructor, found He Yuzhu.

"Company commander, political instructor."

He Yuzhu addressed Sun Bing and Han Wudao.

Sun Bing looked at He Yuzhu, his sharp gaze softening slightly, and said with admiration, "Comrade He Yuzhu, in that annihilation battle where we joined forces with the 27th Army's brother company, you used a grenade to remove the enemy's heavy machine gun on the high ground, which posed the greatest threat to us, and you also killed six enemy soldiers. Your contribution was outstanding and you were incredibly brave. I have already had the communications officer send your achievements to the regimental headquarters via telegram, and the quartermaster has also made a written record of them."

Han Wu patted He Yuzhu's shoulder lightly: "I really didn't expect that a new recruit like you could play such a big role in the battle. Our 10th Company really hit the jackpot by recruiting you."

He Yuzhu scratched his head, revealing a row of harmless smiles.

"Company Commander, Political Instructor, you flatter me."

"It was all by chance."

"Moreover, I will do my best to kill the enemy. This is what I should do. Protecting our country means sacrificing our lives."

He Yuzhu spoke lightly, but everyone knew that his achievements were something they could never reach in their lifetime.

I met He Yuzhu.

These seasoned soldiers all realized one thing.

There really are geniuses in the world.

Sun Bing said, "The instructor and I came here not only to praise you, but also to discuss something else: from now on, you will be the vice squad leader of Class 1."

Zheng Zhanfei, the class monitor of Class 1, who had been listening in, immediately said, "I completely agree. In last night's annihilation battle, if He Yuzhu hadn't caught an enemy hiding in a corner, our whole class would have been in trouble. He's absolutely qualified to be the vice class monitor."

Yang Jin said, "He Yuzhu, I still remember when you first came to our class I said I would protect you, but I never thought that you would have to protect me from now on."

Li Yong: "From now on, you can't call him Xiao He anymore, you have to call him Vice Squad Leader."

"Vice squad leader."

"Vice squad leader."

Qian Dagui, Hu Guangzhi, and Wang Defa addressed He Yuzhu with extreme respect.

Suddenly, everyone fell silent.

Class 1 is missing Zhou Rui.

There are fewer of them forever.

This is the significance of their participation in the War to Resist US Aggression and Aid Korea.

To prevent more people from dying.

We must absolutely not allow the US-led coalition forces to cross the Yalu River.

MacArthur's arrogant remarks had already been published in the newspapers and were known to everyone; he boasted that he would reach the Yalu River before Christmas.

If that's true.

The Dragon Kingdom's territory will be threatened.

That would mean tens of thousands, or even millions, of lives being eyed by predatory thieves.

Never allow it!

"Comrade He Yuzhu."

"Keep it up."

Sun Bingdao.

He Yuzhu nodded seriously: "Yes."

noon.

Under Sun Bing's command and leadership, the 10th Company set off again, heading for Hill 5803.

Those were the seats assigned by the troupe.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The sound of airplanes cutting through the air could be heard from above.

undoubtedly.

Another round of bombing began.

Everyone in the 10th company quickly took cover.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

Flames erupted on a nearby mountain, and bombs continued to explode.

"I wonder which unit was bombed." Zheng Zhanfei shook his head, filled with resentment.

Every bombing is destined to cause casualties.

Fighting in a foreign land.

Seeing my compatriots injured makes me really angry.

"Squad leader, when will our country be able to have a large number of aircraft, and be better, faster, and stronger than those of foreign countries?" Li Yong said to Zheng Zhanfei. Zheng Zhanfei was a high school graduate, the most educated among the 10 students. Whenever the team members had something they didn't understand, they would ask Zheng Zhanfei.

Zheng Zhanfei pondered for a moment: "It should take many years, twenty years? Thirty years? I don't know, but that day will definitely come. We Chinese have an indomitable spirit flowing in our veins."

Li Yong sighed, "I hope I can live to see that day come."

Yang Jin said, "Me too."

He Yuzhu remained silent.

Once the war is over, he will naturally find ways to improve the country's strength.

The kind of military power that Li Yong envisioned.

It won't be long.

Only with a strong military can one suppress everything and prevent anyone from invading.

"Company commander."

"Something's wrong."

"The high ground we are going to is already occupied by US-led coalition forces."

An investigator returned and spoke to Sun Bing.

Sun Bing's brows furrowed instantly.

Another major battle is about to befall their 10th Company.

"Approximately how many enemy soldiers are there?"

Sun Bing inquired.

“At least two platoons,” the investigator replied.

“Two platoons, that’s about sixty enemies.” Sun Bing said gravely.

The US-led coalition forces are well-equipped.

Even if there are only two rows.

For them, even a single company is still an extremely difficult obstacle to overcome.

Moreover, the other side occupies the high ground.

Easy to defend but difficult to attack.

The difficulty has increased again.

"How about using the M1A1 howitzer?"

"Four shells are enough to give them a run for their money."

Instructor Han Wu suggested to Sun Bing.

Sun Bing did not immediately agree: "If we use howitzers, four shells can indeed kill some enemy soldiers. However, we will also encounter their fierce resistance. The enemy is too well-equipped. When the bullets are dense like rain, our company's casualties will definitely not be small. Even if we win, it will be a Pyrrhic victory, and we may not even be able to win. Our company has always suffered casualties. Every soldier is a brother. They have relatives back home, or wives and children waiting for them. I have to be responsible for the lives of every soldier."

Han Wu: "But we must occupy the high ground within the designated time."

For a time, both Han Wu and Sun Bing were in a predicament.

He Yuzhu stepped forward: "Company Commander, Political Instructor, our Platoon 1 requests to participate in the battle."

Sun Bing: "Oh?"

He Yuzhu explained his plan: "Our squad will sneak up quietly and inflict heavy damage on the enemy in an instant. Then the rest of the company will follow. If everyone in the company sneaks up, it will be easy to be discovered if there are too many people. Our squad of seven is different. As long as we hide well, we will not be discovered."

Han Wu said to Sun Bing, "I think it's feasible."

Sun Bing thought about it for a moment, nodded, and felt that it was highly feasible: "Okay."

Chapter 7: Rapid Promotion to Platoon Leader

He Yuzhu came to Sun Bing and the instructor to volunteer, after discussing it with the squad leader Zheng Zhanfei.

With permission, He Yuzhu and Zheng Zhanfei immediately led their team to avoid being monitored by the high-altitude observers' binoculars. In the dark of night, they quickly ran to the foot of the mountain, clung tightly to the mountainside, and climbed up from the steepest and most unexpected position.

Upon reaching the mountainside, they discovered two US-led coalition patrol soldiers.

Each of them was carrying an M3 submachine gun, making Yang Jin, Qian Dagui, and the others drool. Their equipment was too good. These two enemy soldiers from the US-led coalition were not just two lives, but also walking arsenals.
