Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World
Chapter 134 The War Begins
On the evening of October 19, 1950, rows of troops were gathering and waiting on the Yalu River.
Zhao Cheng was now in the ranks, looking at the vast army around him, his heart pounding with emotion. "Being able to personally participate in this war is worth my life!" Zhao Cheng had longed to join the army, but his physical condition hadn't allowed it. Now that his physical condition allowed him to participate in this founding war, Zhao Cheng's heart could not calm down for a long time.
"Company commander, what is the mission given to us?" Zhao Cheng walked to the company commander and asked in a low voice.
"I heard that we are going to infiltrate Yunshan directly and set up an ambush!" said Captain Feng.
"Yunshan?" Zhao Cheng was surprised. Was he going all out? The Battle of Yunshan was indeed the 39th Army's first battle. However, the troops in Yunshan City weren't the South Korean First Division, but the mighty First Cavalry Division!
But Zhao Cheng knew about it but couldn't tell anyone. He didn't want to be sliced up yet! So he could only attack with the troops. Since they were going to fight anyway, wouldn't it be more interesting to fight the more elite 1st Cavalry Division?
"When do we set off?" Zhao Cheng asked.
"It's almost time. As the vanguard, we will definitely be the first to set off! After all, our regiment is the spearhead of our division, and our company is the spearhead of our regiment! If there's a fight, we will definitely be the first to fight!" Captain Feng said to Zhao Cheng with a smile. After all, Zhao Cheng had completely earned Captain Feng's respect over the past ten days.
Not only was his marksmanship excellent, his technical and tactical skills were also at the company's passing level. Most importantly, Zhao Cheng's physical fitness surpassed the entire company. The soldiers of Company Seven now knew their new deputy company commander was a complete freak! A 10-kilometer cross-country race with full weights took an hour for everyone else, but this deputy company commander only needed 40 minutes, and afterward, he was barely sweating. His marksmanship wasn't the best, but it was definitely at the top of the company. Especially with his pistol, no one in the company could match him!
Time slowly passed, and finally, the order came from above. The 39th Army began to cross the river and march straight into Unsan City! They were to surround and destroy the South Korean 1st Division stationed in Unsan!
"Everyone! Let's go!" After hearing the order, Captain Feng directly ordered the entire company to set off, cross the railway bridge, and head straight for Yunshan.
Zhao Cheng followed the troops forward, sometimes checking the terrain in front, sometimes looking at the map, calibrating the direction, and sometimes running to the back of the queue to help the soldiers carry guns and bullets, running back and forth.
"Zhao Cheng, stop running around and come here quickly. Let's discuss how to fight when we get to Yunshan." Captain Feng looked at Zhao Cheng helplessly. Zhao Cheng relied on his good physical strength. He had to run so hard that he wouldn't be able to run any more. After all, Yunshan was nearly a hundred miles away.
"Company commander, should we send a small team to Yunshan in advance to conduct reconnaissance and catch some criminals?" Zhao Cheng suggested excitedly.
After hearing Zhao Cheng's words, Captain Feng gave him a huge eye roll. "Why are you so excited? There's only one South Korean First Division in Yunshan! Our entire army can't defeat that one division? Why bother trying to catch them? No need! Once we get there, we'll just deploy our forces, surround Yunshan, and start fighting!" Captain Feng was a little indignant about the Yunshan Campaign. Sending our entire main force to fight a so-called ace division was like overkill.
"Well, Captain, we have to do a good job of reconnaissance no matter what, right? Besides, the South Korean First Division is not the same as our division! They copied the Japanese organization, which is called a division, right? 20,000 people!" Zhao Cheng was really impressed by the Captain's rudeness. He knew you were an ace, but you couldn't just run over and surround them like that, right? You need to do some reconnaissance.
"Yes, Captain, I think Comrade Zhao Cheng is right. We have to send soldiers to investigate the situation in Yunshan. After all, we are the vanguard, and it is our mission to investigate the enemy situation." The instructor was much more clear-headed than the captain. Although the intelligence said it was the South Korean First Division, no matter how much they looked down on them, they still had to do a good job of investigation.
Zhao Cheng understood that the South Korean army was truly not very strong. After the war began, the North Korean army overwhelmed their defenses in a single attack, nearly driving them into the sea. And this was a feat achieved by students in our unit, not to mention the teachers themselves. It wasn't that we were proud, it was simply that the South Korean army was simply too weak.
"Okay then, let Comrade Zhao Cheng follow the first platoon and go ahead to investigate the situation in Yunshan City!" The company commander agreed after thinking that this was a cross-border battle after all, and they really couldn't be careless.
After hearing the company commander's order, Zhao Cheng happily ran to the front and set off with a row.
Captain Feng and the instructor watched Zhao Cheng run off excitedly. They looked at each other and shook their heads. This new deputy captain was so energetic. And he was really bold and daring!
Zhao Cheng set off on a forced march with a row of soldiers, heading straight for Yunshan City.
After several days of travel, Zhao Cheng arrived in the vicinity of Yunshan on October 27 and began lurking reconnaissance.
"Deputy Company Commander, we arrived two days ahead of the main force along the way! We can only conduct close reconnaissance now, but we can't try to catch them! Otherwise, we will be easily exposed!" A platoon leader whispered while lying beside Zhao Cheng.
"Oh, my platoon leader, do you think that I, who have only been trained for more than ten days, am suitable for the job of catching spies? I'm not stupid. I followed you just to scout the situation in advance and see it for myself! You can do whatever you need to do. Don't worry about me?" Zhao Cheng said casually, looking at Yunshan City with a telescope.
After listening to what Zhao Cheng said, the platoon leader finally felt relieved. He was really afraid that the new deputy company commander would do something weird. Although this guy had made rapid progress in various trainings, it was his first time on the battlefield after all. The platoon leader was really scared!
Zhao Cheng and a platoon leader led the soldiers to hide on a hillside nearly one kilometer away from Yunshan City, observing the battlefield situation through telescopes.
In Yunshan City right now, apart from the sentries on guard, the rest of the troops were still asleep and could not observe anything.
"Let's take a break and wait until they get up. Let the soldiers hide and rest for a while!" Zhao Cheng put down the telescope and lay on the hillside looking at the blue sky.
"Okay!" the platoon leader replied, and then passed the order down.
Zhao Cheng was not tired at all, but the soldiers in the row were exhausted. After all, they had been marching for two days. Although they had rested in the middle, who would complain about having too much rest time!
Zhao Cheng and his soldiers made good disguises and rested quietly on the hillside. However, the enemies in Yunshan City had no idea that there were enemies lurking under their noses.
