In early summer, the Sino-Vietnamese border was in the rainy season, and it was already more than ten o'clock at night, and the torrential rain fell rapidly, slamming on the mud wall of the tile house, making a "crackling" sound, like a crisp sound when the glass was broken, accompanied by the howling night wind to drown this small village called Gantian in a stormy rain curtain.

However, it is this border village that is difficult to find on the map, but at the turn of the spring and summer of 1984, it has become the core center of the entire Chinese front-line troops, because the command organ of the newly formed synthetic brigade is stationed here, and the three adobe houses located next to the old banyan tree in the east of the village are the location of the brigade headquarters of the synthetic brigade.

Inside the house, the high-power radio station was "ticking and ticking," constantly sending and receiving continuous communication messages, and the officers and soldiers were even more busy, with solemn and anxious expressions intertwined; tension and calmness blended together, solemnity and calmness reflected each other, coupled with the increasingly rapid wind and rain, without too much ink, it was a vivid and awe-inspiring iron-blooded picture of the coming war!

And in fact, it is true, just two hours ago, the composite brigade suddenly received an order from the K Military Region to advance the scheduled attack time to 5:56 a.m. tomorrow.

Because in their opinion, the corresponding preparations are not ready, especially the tactics to deal with the heavy fortifications of the Vietnamese army have not yet been formulated, so that if they have to start a war in a hurry, will they repeat the mistakes of two months ago, and become a lingering question in everyone's mind, just like the continuous pouring rain at the moment, which makes people both unstoppable and irresistible

If Wu Tianming had received the order from the military region four hours ago, he would probably have had similar thoughts, because he knew better than anyone what the challenges he was facing were wrong, but since the "variable" he had seen, the troubles that had been haunting his heart for many days were suddenly washed away by the rain in front of him, and they were replaced by a strong confidence and will to win.

Just like when he was a company commander, he led his troops deep behind enemy lines and launched a bloody battle with the Vietnamese army, and that long-lost enthusiasm was once again filled in his heart, and this was only because of the appearance of that "variable", because of his appearance, the artillery group directly under the military region had 12 more "Guard" rocket launchers with strange shapes;

Because of his appearance, Lu Weijun, as the deputy chief of staff of the military region, returned to the front-line unit and served as the battalion commander of this elite rocket artillery battalion; because of his appearance, the tactics applied have changed so much that even the time for the attack has been greatly advanced; however, it is precisely because of his appearance that he Wu Tianming will have great confidence and clench his fists and prepare to completely beat the Vietnamese monkey into a dead monkey

"Qian Aimin, Commander Qian will follow the reconnaissance detachment to infiltrate the Vietnamese side, he once assisted Professor Zhao in the test of laser-guided bombs, is familiar with the corresponding operation methods, and will use the target indication device to indicate the target for the 'Guardian' rocket artillery in the rear!"

"The 'Defender' rocket launcher will use precision-guided munitions to clear the vitality point and open the way for the attacking troops."

"Of course, the most critical thing is the enemy's long-range rocket artillery, so the army chief of staff will do everything in their power to annihilate it"

"When you need artillery support, just call directly, and the 'Guardian' rocket launcher will give you everything you have"

This is what Lu Jiadong said before leaving, although the purpose of his coming to the front line is to maintain and support the "Guardian" rocket artillery, but as a good brother for many years, Wu Tianming knows very well that Lu Jiadong also has high attainments in related tactics, and because of this, Lu Jiadong's words are like a reassuring pill, so that Wu Tianming at this time completely put his heart in his stomach

"Gu Zelin, where are they?"

"I just received the information that they have reached the 50th high ground and are heading towards the main peak 1072 high ground!"

After listening to the staff officer's answer, Wu Tianming nodded slightly, then raised his wrist, looked at the time on the watch, and then said in a deep voice:

"Let them speed up!"

"Good fellow, your brigade commander really treats me as his soldier, so there is no ambiguity at all!"

A few minutes later, in the vast jungle of northern Vietnam, Qian Aimin, who had just been raining, swallowed the command from the radio, swallowed a piece of compressed biscuits, and joked with himself vaguely, Gu Zelin, who was standing beside him, listened to the playful self-deprecation of this regiment-level cadre, and did not feel anything funny, but the brows that were wet with rain frowned even tighter.

His task is to cover the artillery survey detachment, set up an artillery observation post on the enemy's front line, and at the same time carry a target guidance device and establish a so-called guidance base station.

However, he was really confused about what kind of target guidance base station he had, and he only knew from brigade commander Wu Tianming that these three sets of target guidance devices were the eyes of the "killer weapon" and were very important, but the question was what exactly was the "killer weapon"? How exactly was this target guidance device used? How exactly the guidance base station was set up, and he, the commander of the reconnaissance company, also knew nothing.

For this reason, he specially consulted the people of the artillery observation team, but they were not as good as himself, and they did not even know what was in the boxes, which made him even more puzzled, since no one knew, why did the brigade commander strictly order him to carry these boxes? Just as he was about to embark on this infiltration journey full of unknowns with extremely incomprehensible thoughts,

A regimental-level cadre surnamed Qian suddenly found him with the order of the brigade commander Wu Tianming, asked their reconnaissance detachment to escort him on the road together, and listened to his command at several enemy frontline points

You must know that covering the artillery observation team and carrying the target guidance device is already a very heavy task, and now there is another unknown word to the layman, no matter what, it makes Gu Zelin have a sense of ridiculous banter, and Gu Zelin's feeling is indeed right, Qian Aimin is really a layman,

Whether it is walking or climbing, or crossing a ditch, not to mention compared with professional special forces, even the slightly weaker artillery detachment can't compare, and the physical strength is still so, let alone reconnaissance and infiltration, if it weren't for Gu Zelin's help several times, it is estimated that Qian Aimin would have been injured a long time ago;

Fortunately, he himself is an optimistic person, and he does not hide when he encounters difficulties, and he can say it as soon as he can, whether it is a little soldier who is more than ten years younger than him, or the commander of the K Military Region who is high above, he can make a few jokes, walk all the way, talk all the way, and make the soldiers who walked laugh with a smile, if it weren't for Gu Zelin's gloomy face emphasizing discipline, it is estimated that these soldiers would have laughed out loud a lot,

However, it is precisely because of this that Qian Aimin's status in Gu Zelin's heart has dropped a few levels, thinking about what the hell is such a cadre sent by his superiors to do? Is it to fight a war, or is it to come for a theatrical performance? But no matter what, he must have come to stir up the situation, to be honest, if it were not for the brigade commander's order and relevant documents, Gu Zelin would definitely kill this cadre surnamed Qian as an enemy

Qian Aimin didn't know that Gu Zelin was about to collapse because he was tortured by himself, but he also felt the unkindness revealed by Gu Zelin, and couldn't help but smile and patted Gu Zelin's shoulder:

"Little comrade, I really worked hard for you this time, but there are some things that I have to do in person, so I can't help it" (To be continued.) )
