Wang Yong called the helicopter air patrol team that was preparing to return home. The Black Hawk helicopter slowly landed under the gaze of pedestrians in the dense crowd of pedestrians on the street.

Under the escort of Wang Yong and the special forces team, the two old men got on the helicopter together, Wang Yong didn't even have time to say goodbye to Dawei and the cubs, and they accompanied the two old men to fly back to the mid-levels base by plane.

The plane landed at the base, and all the leaders of the base at home went to the airport to greet them, and then the two old men told the officers and men of the base in the auditorium about the unimaginable hardships they had experienced on the battlefield and the immortal feats they had made.

These two old men were He Zhengchang, who was the deputy company commander at the time, and Chen Changhong, the second squad leader of the first platoon. The unit to which they belonged was the 7th Company of the 15th Frontier Regiment at that time.

In that year, before the battle of our army to recover Laoshan, their company was ordered to lurk in the eastern mountains of Balishan. At that time, the old platoon commander had just been promoted to the deputy company commander of the company, and another old man also became the squad leader.

According to the division's deployment, the Seventh Company to which they belonged was to lurk at the front of the enemy's position in Balishan Mountain before the start of the Laoshan Campaign, and the closest place to the enemy was only more than 130 meters.

The battle against Laoshan lasted three days and three nights, and they lurked under the enemy's nose for three days and three nights. According to the advance arrangement, the attack on this place will be seven days later.

This was done in order to achieve the suddenness of the attack and reduce the casualties of the troops. It's just that as soon as the battle starts on the Laoshan side, the enemy on this side will inevitably strengthen their vigilance, and it will undoubtedly be much more difficult to sneak into the enemy's front line at that time.

Therefore, a company with more than 100 officers and men had to enter the latent position in advance, and they had to stay for 10 days and 10 nights. It was ten days! Not to mention the hot and humid environment of the subtropical rainforest on the border between China and Vietnam.

At that time, no one believed that they could really lurk for ten days without alarming the enemy, not even the warriors themselves. Because this is a battlefield again, any unexpected situation can happen.

Maybe an enemy inadvertently spotted it, or suddenly a shell that misses the target. Blasting the lurking warrior into the sky, or the slightest moan from a warrior who can't stand the heat and the endless harassment of insects of all sizes.

Therefore, the superiors told them that they should start fighting whenever they were discovered.

At the same time, the higher authorities had to do this, taking into account that when our troops attacked Lao Shan, the enemy might penetrate into the rear of our army through this gap on the left flank to surround our army.

The Seventh Company lurked here, and its first task was to ensure the safety of the flanks of our troops attacking Laoshan. But until our army captured Laoshan, the enemy did not send reinforcements from here.

According to post-war analysis, first, the enemy's troops were already insufficient at that time, so there were not many troops to carry out such a reinforcement mission. Second, our army attacked quickly. The enemy did not have time to react, and Laoshan had already been conquered by our army.

In order to hold their positions for a long time, the fighters of the 7th Company left backpacks, raincoats, etc., and carried as much ammunition and dry food as possible. They marched non-stop on the mountain road for 12 hours in the dark, and finally reached their destination at 5 a.m. the next morning.

Of course, during the first day, they could only lurk at a distance from the enemy's positions to avoid exposure. That night, they touched the grass that was only separated from the enemy's occupation of the 1019 Heights by a mountain beam, and the closest place to the Vietnamese devils was only more than 130 meters.

In order not to be detected by the enemy. They are all motionless and lurking during the day, and they are even afraid of turning over in their sleep or unconscious movements in their dreams to attract the attention of the enemy, and they are not even allowed to sleep.

As soon as night fell, they took advantage of the cover of the gunfire and artillery of our army's attack on Laoshan. Careful excavation and trimming of fortifications.

In order not to alarm the close enemy, they had to scrape the ground a little bit with a sapper shovel, or simply pick it with their hands. Because lurking under the noses of the enemy, you have to be careful and careful!

After several nights of continuous effort. The officers and men of the Seventh Company were stunned to repair more than 20 shelters, more than 30 single bunkers and cat's ear holes under the noses of the Vietnamese army.

It is precisely because of the existence of these bunkers that they have been able to hold out for such a long time. Because after these covers, single bunkers, and cat ear holes. At least they can move their hands and feet in a limited space.

Otherwise, if you lie motionless in the grass for ten days, I am afraid that I will not even be able to stand up by then, and what kind of charge will I fight? How do you fight with Vietnamese devils?

Until the fortifications were completed, they had to feed themselves on the dry rations they carried. This is also due to the need for hidden missions, when there are no fortifications, the movement is a little bigger, it is possible to be discovered by the enemy, and of course, it is not possible to light a fire or let the people in the rear deliver food.

Even after the fortifications were repaired, the food supplies did not improve much: two days, a cold meal, a pot of water.

The reason why it is cold rice is because it is too close to the enemy, and everyone is worried that the smell of hot rice will waft to the positions of the Vietnamese devils and arouse their alarm. Because it was difficult for these devils to eat a hot meal at that time, they had an unimaginable sensitivity to the aroma of rice.

In this way, the officers and men of the 7th Company cautiously lurked under the nose of the enemy.

Although there is no need to build fortifications during the day, it is impossible to sleep due to the frequent activity of the enemy and the reasons mentioned above.

It's not good to sleep at night, not to mention anything else, it's impossible for you to get a good night's sleep because of the ubiquitous mosquito bites.

Even the biggest problem with sleeping is what happens if you snore? What if you talk about dreams? What should I do if I unconsciously slap and bite the mosquitoes in my sleep?

Therefore, in such an environment, after a few days of lurking, the soldiers of the Seventh Company are no longer human. Mosquito bites with large bags all over the face, as well as rotten crotches soaked by dew and rain bubbles are also common phenomena.

These are not nothing, the temperature difference between day and night here, coupled with several rains, makes most of the officers and men of the Seventh Company have the experience of getting sick during the incubation process.

As the deputy company commander of the seventh company, the old man began to have diarrhea on the second day after he went to the position, but when the fortifications were not built, he could only pull in his pants.

Another old man, who was the second squad leader at the time, was even worse, he suffered from bronchitis. It is conceivable that if he coughed, I am afraid that the Seventh Company would have to end the lurking ahead of schedule and attack the enemy without being ready to attack.

In order not to cough himself, he covered his mouth with a hat or a towel, buried his face in the dirt and coughed softly. Every time, I was suffocated, and my face was bruised.

As for a high fever or something, it is more common, it is fine during the day, if it is a sunny day, you can still bask in the sun, and at night it will be cold and shivering. Especially on rainy days, you can only hide in the cat's ear hole or in the bunker and shiver and grit your teeth.

We don't know under what circumstances the leadership at that time gave such an order, how could they believe that someone, even a company of people, could persist in hiding for ten days under such conditions?

Didn't anyone consider that it was too risky?

However, the leaders at the time gave the order and made this hidden plan. I don't know if they are blindly commanding, or if they have firm confidence in their subordinates' will to fight.

In fact, the superiors also took into account that the soldiers were afraid that they would not be able to hold out for ten days, so after the soldiers were lurking in place, preparations for the attack on Bali Mountain were actively underway.

It's just that this preparation didn't go well. On the one hand, in order to cope with the enemy's counterattack on the Laoshan position, the focus of work had to be shifted to the Laoshan side, and the first thing was to accumulate enough ammunition in Laoshan.

However, in that environment at that time, the supply was completely dependent on manpower, and it took more than ten hours to go up the mountain, more than ten hours to go down, and a few hours of rest in between, so this trip would take two days.

Until the eighth day when the soldiers of the Seventh Company were lurking, they had been lurking here for seven days and seven nights. The situation suddenly took an unexpected turn.

In the past seven days and seven nights, the soldiers of the whole company have not washed their faces once, changed their clothes once, and never had a good meal. Without a good night's sleep, everyone was turned into mud figures, their eyes were bloodshot, and their bodies were full of pimples from mosquito bites. So much so that even comrades-in-arms couldn't recognize each other.

At that time, many people thought that when would they be able to attack the enemy quickly? After beating the devil, you must take a good bath, and then eat a meal, and don't eat anything else. Just eat dumplings, be meat-filled, and then sleep well, sleep him for three days and three nights.

I don't know if there is a god in the dark who heard the hearts of the soldiers, but on the eighth day, the Vietnamese army on the 1019 position suddenly moved.

He Zhengchang found that more than a dozen devils suddenly appeared on the Vietnamese army's position, and they were busy setting up several 60 guns and 82 guns (60 mm mortars and 82 mm mortars).

He immediately judged that this was an important target for our troops that the enemy had discovered, otherwise he would not have risked his life to use mortars at this time.

Because they must know that as soon as they open fire, our shells will come at them immediately, blowing them all to pieces and leaving them dead.

This judgment turned out to be correct later, and the enemy found a convoy of military vehicles transporting ammunition for our troops.

After the Vietnamese army agents discovered the pair of agents transporting arms, because of the strict blockade of our army, they did not find an opportunity to attack, so they came up with the idea of using mortars to create a series of explosions on the road, thereby temporarily interrupting the road transportation, and then affecting the logistics and supply of our army.

He Zhengchang, who discovered the devil's movements, immediately turned on the walkie-talkie and reported to his superiors, and then the battle started in advance.

As soon as the mortar of the Vietnamese devils was set up, and after adjusting the firing of Zhu Yuan, the shells of our army fell all over the sky with a whistling voice. The first round of more than twenty shells covered this artillery position.

The enemy artillery was destroyed by Shun Lì, but the trouble of the 7th Company came. You must know that the Vietnamese army set up artillery positions on the anti-slope of the heights, and they were discovered so quickly, so needless to say, there are lurking artillery observers of our army near themselves.

As a result, the Vietnamese army soon sent a search team of about a dozen people to search for our army's "artillery observers".

When they got closer and closer to the place where the Seventh Company was lurking, and saw that they were all a few meters away, the commander of the Seventh Company knew that they couldn't fight anymore.

"Kill—"

A series of gunfire knocked the stunned Vietnamese search team into a sieve. After that, the covering artillery fire in the rear immediately began to bombard the Vietnamese positions, and after only one round, the artillery fire began to extend, and the soldiers rushed forward with the explosion point of the shells.

The soldiers of the 7th Company rushed to the position before the enemy came out of the anti-artillery holes or tunnels.

Ten minutes later, the battle was over. At the cost of only five casualties, the 7th Company took this position, which was of great significance to our army, eliminated dozens of Vietnamese devils, and captured a large number of military supplies stored by the enemy.

After the war, in order to commend the officers and men of the Seventh Company for their meritorious service, the superiors gave the Seventh Company a collective first-class meritorious service. At the same time, the Central Military Commission also issued an order to confer the honorary title of "Seventh Company of Frontier Steel" on the Seventh Company of the 15th Frontier Regiment.
