Chapter 385: Father-Son Dialogue

"Did you burn that building?" Chen Mingli gritted his teeth and asked towards the pillar of smoke rising in the distance. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Chen Xu followed his father's gaze and looked over, it turned out that the bank building that Chen Xu burned down before was because no one went to extinguish the fire, and the burning materials falling from the high-rise building ignited the building next to it, and the result was more and more burning, and the scorched black smoke rushed up to the sky and enveloped half of the city.

"The Vietnamese army, which had a battalion entrenched in that building, refused to surrender, and it was inevitable that there would be casualties if they sent people to attack it, so they simply burned it down." Chen Xu looked at his masterpiece, without the slightest guilt, but was quite proud of his wise decision at that time, if he didn't put this fire, it is estimated that more than half of the more than 100 commandos he brought would die.

"How can we let it burn like this, if we let foreign journalists take pictures, it will be difficult for us to explain! Quickly send someone over to extinguish the fire, at least not let the fire spread like this. "In the war, not to mention burning a building, it is normal to raze the city to the ground, so Chen Zhuo did not blame his son, but asked Chen Xu to do a good job in the aftermath, after all, this military operation was funded and supported by the US imperialists, so he followed a large number of Western reporters in his 69th Army, all of whom wanted to shoot some battlefield blockbusters and win the Pulitzer Prize.

Chen Xu scratched the back of his head, looked left and right, grabbed the leader of a commando team casually, and ordered directly: "You take some people to find a way to build a fire isolation ring, you don't need to extinguish the fire, you just need to control the fire within a certain range and not expand." Fire and water are ruthless, be careful, don't hurt people! ”

The squad leader received the order, saluted and ran away.

Seeing Chen Xu's lazy appearance, Chen Zhuo burped and said: "I will personally escort these two Soviet generals back to China, you take over my command, and clean up the Vietnamese people in the entire Xicheng District out of the city, I will come back before eight o'clock in the evening!" ”

"Then you have to make sure to come on time at eight o'clock, I have made an appointment with the French Embassy in Vietnam, and I am going to a banquet tonight, and they have prepared a big dinner for us to entertain us!" Chen Xu didn't have any opinion on taking over the 69th Army to clear the field, but just reminded his father to pay attention to the time, rather than driving the people of the whole city away, he didn't want to delay the banquet in the evening.

"Dinner?" Chen Zhuo was stunned for a while, but he quickly reacted, as an occupation army, local famous people will come forward to find out the situation and situation, but this time the Chinese army wants to drive all the people in northern Vietnam to the south, so naturally there is no such a troublesome thing as 'pacifying the locality'. It is estimated that the French Embassy came out to entertain high-level Chinese generals and promote Sino-French friendship.

"Since the ambassador has a treat, of course I want to go, and when the time comes, I will also call the people from the Banzai Army, and we will eat at the French embassy tonight!" Chen Zhuo hesitated for a while, as a general, he didn't have many opportunities to get to know foreign magnates, and since he met it, it didn't hurt to open his eyes once.

"Okay, I'll send someone to inform the French embassy and let me know how many people will be on our side!" Chen Xu nodded, this kind of formal banquet between the two countries must be prepared in advance, if the handover between the two sides is not good, it will be troublesome to make the scene embarrassing at that time.

"By the way, when you clear the scene, be polite first, just drive out the Vietnamese people who are hiding at home, if you are stubborn and refuse to leave, it is not too late, in short, drive these people out of Hanoi before they react! As long as the city is cleared and has an exemplary effect, the other cities in the northern part of Vietnam will be easy to do! Chen Zhuo put one hand in his trouser pocket and told his son what to do.

"I know all these things, and I'm not a child anymore. You send people back to China quickly, bring me clothes by the way, I still have to dress better to go to the banquet. Chen Xu urged his father to leave quickly, very impatient with his instructions.

Chen Zhuo reluctantly escorted Oturov and Butuolin out of the Ministry of Finance building, and after the group got into the helicopter, they quickly got up and climbed to a safe altitude of 1,000 meters, and then flew towards the country.

The KGB's ability to penetrate should never be underestimated, especially in a place like Vietnam, where there is a shortage of soldiers, and it is very easy for the KGB to do something.

After seeing his father leave, Chen Xu was relieved, and Tu Meng and other officers also breathed a long sigh. Before Chen Zhuo left, he left all the regiment-level officers of the 69th Army behind, so that Chen Xu could command them to clean up the city.

"Now let's assign a task, the 69th Army units are divided into battalions, from the city center to the suburbs, and it is necessary to clean up the Xicheng District. Particular attention should be paid to blocking the various intersections to prevent the remnants of the Vietnamese army from flowing between the streets and alleys. In short, we made sure that there were no talking creatures, including real monkeys, in the places we searched! Chen Xu released the task with a smile.

Compared to fighting the Vietnamese army to the death, the task of expelling the Vietnamese from the city was very easy, and most of the Vietnamese had already fled the city to escape the war at the beginning of the war. But three to four out of ten people are still hiding at home, closing their doors and windows and waiting for the situation to settle down.

Because in modern history, except for the Germans, it is rare for the occupation army to drive the local people away, after all, only where there are people can collect taxes and plunder, drive people away from a dead city and get nothing, only robbers will do such a thing of killing chickens and eggs.

It's a pity that these Vietnamese people are completely wrong, even the people who go out of the city are only temporarily out of the city, and they will come back when the situation calms down. They never imagined that the most people in China were people, and that occupying a piece of territory could completely drive out the locals, and then immigrants would enrich the place with their own people.

And our army needs to drive these Vietnamese people out of the city before they can react, as long as they leave, it is impossible to come back. If they had been told in the first place that they would never come back after leaving home, these Vietnamese would definitely not have left, and all the men would immediately take up arms and fight with our troops, and then the whole city would have been plunged into terrible street fighting.

It would not be possible for our army to take the city in its entirety unless all the men in the city were killed, and even if they did, it would take months to complete the occupation, and by then Hanoi had already been destroyed. A city that has been beaten to a pulp, let alone eat, drink and sleep, I am afraid that there is no place to shelter from the rain, and it will take years to fully rebuild.

Both Chen Zhuo and Wang Lie didn't want such a thing to happen, so they demanded that the two armies must strike while the iron was hot to clean up Hanoi City into an empty city, and the cleanup work would be easier after being tired now!
