Hong Yan returned to the rest place, and the team members were ready, which seemed quite tragic. Hong Yan didn't know what the blood-stained demeanor was playing. Guo Jinsong announced the discipline, and then led the team towards the starting place. After walking for nearly an hour in the darkness of the night, I heard the sound of water, and I should have reached the Red River. It is said that just after the Lantern Festival, the moonlight should be very good, but the fog in the river valley is foggy, and only the sound of water is heard and the river is not seen.

The whole team spread out on the terrain and quietly waited for the contact to arrive. When he finally stepped out of the country, Hong Yan's heart couldn't help but beat faster, and the team members were clutching their straps or twisting their fingers.

It was just past 9 p.m. when the contact appeared. The fog is getting heavier and heavier, and even with the flashlights on, it is difficult to see from twenty meters away. It is no wonder that Hong Yan's reading materials show that the troops of the Western Front successfully crossed four infantry regiments, three reinforced infantry battalions and one border defense company at seven points in one night by using assault boats and rubber boats, occupied the beachhead, controlled the key points, and covered the follow-up troops to erect pontoon bridges.

They were divided into three groups and got on the assault boats, each boat was held in two rows and half squatted, and two boat-driving warriors, one of whom was at the helm of the other, did not drive for concealment reasons. Everyone looked nervous and highly focused. Hong Yan squatted in the middle of the assault boat, and suddenly a handful of M21 appeared in his hand, resting it on his shoulder, looking intently at the depths of the dense fog.

Under the command of the boat-driving soldiers, two rows of special soldiers rowed quickly, and the assault boat pierced out like arrows. Although the Hongshui River is said to be in the dry season, the river surface is still about 250 meters, and the water depth is 3 to 5 meters, so it cannot be crossed. Estimating the time, the assault boat slowed down, and sure enough, it entered the shallow water on the opposite bank. Feeling that the bottom of the boat touched the bottom of the river, the warriors immediately threw down the pulp, jumped into the water, scattered and ran forward quickly, and from time to time someone tripped with a "hum".

Hong Yan didn't even notice the presence of Vietnamese people in front of him, and then put away the M21. The situation is so tense, how come they have no one to defend? However, considering the long border between the two countries, it is impossible to defend everywhere and there are people everywhere. Perhaps, today's smuggling point is an inconspicuous place!

He jumped down and stood firmly in front of the group, his shoes not getting wet. Shi Yanbin was about to reach out to help the master, but he was gone, his heart tightened, and he ran a few steps to find the master in the front team and breathed a sigh of relief. The commandos quickly moved forward and half-crouched into a warning formation.

Thirty-one people were gathered in a search formation and slowly moved forward, the dense fog was not only a means of concealment, but it was also difficult for them to move, and it was even more difficult to grasp the danger ahead. Out of the river beach, through the grass, up the river slope, the weeds began to dense, and from time to time there were stumps of varying heights. The terrain is getting higher and higher, and it is obvious that there is only a low jungle. Even if it is low, it is taller than Hongyan. He could only follow Shi Yanbin to avoid the artemisia grass and wattle strips on his face.

This stretch of the road should be the most dangerous. But unexpectedly, not only was there no one, but there were no mines on the river beaches and hillsides. According to Hong Yan's understanding, the border between the two countries has been laid countless mines, layer upon layer, and it is impossible to tell which side it was laid. Perhaps that is the "scenic spot" that only exists at the junction of southeastern Yunnan and Guangxi! There is a red river moat, or it may not be a ferry, and it belongs to its own side, and it can't blow up the enemy, but it will break your own family and lose your arms and legs.

On the low hill, the fog lightened a lot. Captain Guo softly ordered the team to rest for the time being. Two commandos armed with submachine guns spread out to guard the front. Shi Yanbin lay on the ground and set up a crane. The two captains lie on the north slope and turn on the flashlight to check the map. Hong Yan sat next to Shi Yanbin and didn't speak, there was no danger, and no one was active within a kilometer.

Successfully smuggled across the Red River, Guo Necksong took out a compass, and the guide pointed out the approximate location, determined the direction, and then announced that he would continue to set off. There are commandos in front and behind to find the way and cover, then guides and snipers, and in the middle of the team are heavy fire teams, radio officers, hygienists and Hong Yan. The captain and vice captain are divided into the front and rear of the team.

The guide's name is Long Kan, 28 years old, who participated in the construction of Highway 10 in Vietnam, and has been walking in this area for a period of time. Many of the border people of the two countries belong to the same ethnic group and are related to each other. So after the road was built, he often came and walked around. He knows a lot about the area.

The team silently climbed high and low, and made their way through the grass and jungle, which was very difficult. In two hours, they walked about 2 kilometers in the dark. Hong Yan was very puzzled that there were no soldiers in this section. I stopped in front of it, and after a while, I confirmed that I had arrived at the road. According to the smuggling location, it is indeed a road. There is nothing wrong with the direction!

This is a Vietnamese road near the Red River, and it is said that they will also use this road to transport supplies and dispatch troops. Oh no, they have a northwest-southeast trend. It is a mountainous area, there are no important towns, and there is no need to use it to mobilize materials and troops in wartime. Judging from the afternoon parking spot, Hong Yan should be located between Ba Sa and Lao Cai now.

The road is in the middle of the valley, and there is also a thin layer of mist wafting around, and the view is not good. The lowlands were vulnerable, and Guo Jinsong commanded his troops to quickly cross the road and hide into the hillside on the south side. At this time, Hong Yan sensed that there was activity on the top of the mountain on the south side. But the distance was relatively far, and there was no sound or fire from the procession, so it could not be seen in the darkness.

There are a lot of mines planted on the northern slope of the mountain, but there are still more than ten meters away from the marching team, and Hong Yan did not warn him. This may have been the empirical judgment of the veterans, so possible dangers were avoided. The team headed diagonally along the hillside to the southeast, just into the saddle between the two hills. This terrain is a taboo for soldiers, and it is very vulnerable to the attack of two mountains. The terrain is much higher, there is no fog, and it is easy to find shadows in the moonlight. The team did not stop and dived quickly through the artemisia jungle.

At this moment, the machine gun on the hill suddenly rang out, and there was a long tongue of fire. The direction of the machine gun attack was the saddle just now, and Hong Yan admired Captain Guo's command and judgment very much. Hundreds of rounds were fired, and machine guns were fired on the hill to the northwest, and then stopped, flashlights flickering on both sides. Apparently communicating.

In the silence of the night, the vigilant marching procession was startled by the sudden sound of machine guns. Everyone immediately crouched, and no one fired. As soon as the gunfire stopped, everyone understood that it was a temptation just now. Shooting back in the dark of night will reveal the target and location. If you don't get closer, you won't shoot.

The team continued south, away from the road. In the moonlight, the rolling hills in the distance only outline black outlines, like ink paintings. After finding a path, the team advanced much faster. The commandos before and after did not let their guard down, and Hong Yan let go of his divine sense from time to time to investigate.

Farmland appeared on both sides, apparently entering the range of villagers' activities, and there were villages in front of them or to the left and right. The trail gradually widened and it was much easier to walk. Hong Yan estimates that it is at least 5 kilometers away from the Red River. It's early in the morning, and it's the time of day when people are most likely to get sleepy and fall asleep.

After the team stopped, Guo Jinsong took out the telescope and looked forward for a while, as if he saw something. Then, after some discussion, it was decided to bypass the village from the east. Guo Jinsong looked at Hong Yan in the moonlight, Yu Lu Xinglai did not complain about being tired, nor did he act out of line, and he was more satisfied.

The village was far away and faintly invisible, beyond the perceptible range of Hongyan. His oversized backpack - the telescope of Midi in the fairy garden is also young and old. At this time, there was no need for him to observe as well.

Before the war officially begins, it is necessary to avoid villages and some garrisons as much as possible without revealing their whereabouts. The warriors' backpacks were heavy enough, and they also carried ammunition to feed, and they groped for more than four hours in a row, and their bodies were relatively tired. Shi Yanbin, who was walking in front of Hong Yan, began to gasp for breath, and Wang Xiaotie, the deputy shooter who was carrying the bullet box, shook his feet.

A series of sounds of "plop" and "bang". The team immediately stopped and assumed a vigilant posture. It turned out to be Wang Xiaotie, who couldn't steady his footsteps and didn't cross a ditch more than one meter wide, fell down, and fell to the ground with the box on his shoulder.

A false alarm!

Wang Xiaotie got up in a panic and put the bullet box on his shoulder with both hands. Hong Yan turned around and walked a few steps and reached out to take it. Wang Xiaotie handed it to him stupidly, and only after seeing the figure clearly did he be taken aback, and chased a few steps to grab it. "It's okay! I'll bring you some, I'll give it to you later! Hong Yan said softly.

This road is full of ditches and bumps, and if you don't pay attention to it, you will fall. Fortunately, it is close to the village, the war has not broken out yet, and there is no need to worry about mines, traps, etc. for the time being. Climbing up the hill to the east, Hong Yan looked through the grass at the quiet village hidden in the darkness.

Crossing the main road like a machine plow, the team entered a small hill in the southeast corner of the village. At night, the mountains in the south are getting higher and higher, and they should enter the edge of the so-called Hoang Lien Mountains. The highest peak of Hoang Lien Son is over 3,000 meters. The team headed southeast, and it was impossible to climb the peaks. Of course. There is far beyond the scope of operations.

Wang Xiaotie wanted to carry it over the ammunition box, and when he heard Hong Yan breathing as usual, he admired it more and more. Hong Yan suddenly crossed Shi Yanbin and the others, quickly walked behind the captain, and whispered, "Report to the captain!" "What's the matter?" In the dark night, Guo Jinsong also asked in a low voice. "There's troops marching on the plow road!" Hong Yan pointed behind him. The machine plow road was five or six hundred meters away from them. If Hong Yan didn't say hello again, the team would climb over the hill and miss the team.

Guo Jinsong didn't believe it: "How do you know? He looked back at the machine plow behind him, and sure enough, there was a dim light, and then there was more and more light in the thin mist, and some of them swayed towards the sky. They marched in the direction of the hamlet.

The team paused for a moment to observe the marching procession. After Wu Hong just came over, the two captains observed and discussed, and then squatted down to show on the ground. Finally, the strength of one company was confirmed to be stationed in the hamlet.

Then, over the hill, the team continued to grope their way forward for two hours, about five kilometers from the small village. Entering the foot of a strange rocky stone mountain, there are caves of different depths and shades, which have the taste of a stone forest. The stone forest in Yunnan, China is flat underground, but this stone mountain is more than 200 meters above the ground. Obviously, this stone mountain was not formed by stalactites.

The team paused for a moment, discussed and decided to touch it, and then cautiously formed an attack formation and quietly went up the hill. Sixteen people were stationed on the rocky mountain. Fifteen of them are scattered and sleep in four larger caves, and there is a secret sentry near the top of the mountain, and also the cat is in a small cave about one person deep, is it the legendary cat's ear hole?
