Desperate, Kim Yun-ho faces a life-and-death choice.

Kim Yun-ho's brain was running fast, and he calmly and keenly summed up three escape routes.

First, drive the K9 into the sea.

The main threat of North Korean shells is the fire damage caused by the explosion, which is greatly reduced if there is sea water to help cover it.

But there is one of the biggest difficulties: the roads are muddy, the K9 is not powered enough, and it is easy to get stuck on the beach.

It can be said that it is difficult to achieve the ultimate goal of allowing the sea to cover K9 and thus save his life.

Second, drive K9 back the same way.

The road was devastated by shells, but with the cross-country performance of the K9, it was possible to pass.

It's just that the passing speed will be very slow, and 30 is already the best case.

Third, abandon the car and flee to a nearby bunker.

However, this method is not feasible after the staff officer's rough calculation, because it is too late in time.

Moreover, Kim Yun-ho is likely to encounter artillery fire on the way to escape alone, which is even more dangerous.

In the end, the advice given by the staff was to drive the K9 to the nearby bunker, and then abandon the car and hide in the bunker.

According to the operational staff officer, this method of escape is feasible and the best option.

Kim Yun-ho didn't take that advice, because it turned out that these guys were unreliable and outrageous.

He has to make his own choices and control his own destiny.

Nearly 30 seconds were wasted, and the K9 remained in place, which made everyone in the command room of the Ministry of Defense anxious.

At this moment, Kim Yun-ho's weight in their eyes is very different.

When Kim Yoon-ho drove the K9 to the open area of the coast, he could only be regarded as a hero reserve.

At that time, no one could confirm whether the North Korean side would concentrate its fire on the K9 piloted by Kim Yoon-ho.

But after the shelling just now. It proves that the DPRK side has taken the bait.

Kim Yun-ho used the K9 to successfully attract the attention of the North Korean side and avoid the blow to the position and residential area of Yeonpyeong Island.

Kim Yun-ho traded his personal life for the safety of the military and civilians on the island, and has become a hero in this battle.

These shrewd guys at the Ministry of Defense are aware of the importance of Kim Yoon-ho's survival.

Because the living hero at the moment has more value than the dead hero.

For political reasons. No one, including Defense Minister Kim Tae-young, wants something to happen to Kim Yoon-ho.

But some things are not transferred by human will, and at this moment Kim Yunhao is indeed in a desperate situation.

And Kim Yoon-ho didn't take any action at the critical moment, which made everyone anxious.

"The shelling is coming, let's go!"

The staff officer's voice was no longer mechanically cold, but full of concern and urgency.

But Kim Yun-ho was unmoved and didn't move.

He has already made his choice.

He didn't choose any escape route, so he drove the K9 to stay where he was.

He's gambling. Bet that the North Korean side will not shell him with all the firepower this time.

Before the last round of shelling, the ROK did not organize a decent return fire, and there was little threat to the DPRK's artillery positions.

Therefore. The North Korean side did not hesitate to concentrate all its firepower on him.

At this point, the situation is very different.

After the first round of shelling, the ROK began to return fire, and although there was no damage to the DPRK's artillery positions, the threat was real. After the South Korean side readjusted the coordinates. It is likely to cause them significant losses.

Therefore, the DPRK side thinks about its own security. It is likely that the positions of the South Korean side will be shelled and the fire of the South Korean side will be suppressed.

If Kim Yun-ho wins the bet, then the number of shells he greets will be greatly reduced, and the security will be increased.

But even if the number of shells shelling him decreases, the threat is still not small.

Kim Yun-ho stayed where he was, also betting that the North Korean side's strategy of shelling him was likely to change.

The last round of North Korean shelling was covered fire, and the area of shelling was focused on his original position.

However, in the end, Kim Yunhao successfully escaped.

This time, the North Korean side probably thought that he would escape, so it was possible to change the shelling strategy: focus on shelling to block his possible escape route. As for where he stayed. The artillery fire will not be too strong.

Kim Yun-ho is gambling, betting on the judgment of the battlefield situation. Bet on the Commander's mental activity.

He is a prosecutor and an expert in micro-expression analysis, and analyzing mental activity is his forte.

In a desperate situation, he used what he did best to help him strategize.

As for whether you can win the bet, this has to wait for the test of practice.

At first, everyone in the command room of the Ministry of Defense could not understand Kim Yoon-ho's death.

But when they noticed that the North Korean side was mainly shelling the Yeonpyeong Island military base, the shells falling near K9 were greatly reduced, and the shells mainly fell on K9's possible escape route, they realized.

Kim Yun-ho's stay in place is not an act of sending him to death, but a very deep battlefield psychological game choice.

Luckily, he won the game, and there were very few shells that landed around the K9.

However, Kim Yoon-ho also seems to have used up all his luck.

Under the blow of a small number of shells, K9 was unlucky enough to be hit in the front by a shell!

When K9 was hit, Kim Yoon-ho's whole person in the armored car was overturned.

He only felt his body rising and spinning, his vision blurring, and his mind drifting.

In his world, everything overlaps, merges, disappears, and finally only white and black remain.

At this moment, he recalled the conversation he had with Father Xu not long ago.

Father Xu asked him from the perspective of a soldier: don't talk, don't retreat, it's about life, and you have to fight to the death.

Looking back on the past, he did what Xu's father expected: he never retreated!

He doesn't regret his choice, but he has regrets.

He didn't leave Xu Xian with regrets, because he was afraid that Xu Xian would be even more sad and painful after knowing the truth.

But in fact, he had a lot to say to Xu Xian in his heart......

When I am successful, I will allow you to spend the moon before the moon;

Wait for me to fight for half my life, and allow you to talk about mulberry and hemp;

When I am famous all over the country, I will allow you to sing and indulge the horses;

Wait for me to reign in the world, and let you make the four seas your home;

Treat me without worry, and allow you to wander the world;

He looked forward to the life of the two of them, and there were too many wishes that had not been fulfilled. There was so much to say to her.

It's a pity that he has no chance to speak at this moment.

In the end, all his regrets and love turned into the last sentence:

"When I return to the dust, may you let go of your lovesickness."

………

When the generals cheered for Kim Yoon-ho's victory. The cheers stopped abruptly.

The large screen in the command room lost the image transmitted by K9, and the communication with K9 was completely interrupted.

When it was confirmed that K9 was killed in the flames, Kim Tae Young's feet stood up violently.

After two seconds of silence, Kim Tae-young issued an order in a deep voice and in a firm tone: "Order the special combat team of the White Horse Division Regiment on standby nearby, risk the shell strike and immediately go to rescue Kim Yun-ho, at all costs!" ”

After speaking, Kim Tae-young asked the chief of staff of the Air Force again: "Where are our fighters?!" ”

The Air Force staff officer immediately replied: "The F15 and F16 fighter groups will arrive in the airspace of Yeonpyeong Island within 1 minute. ”

Kim Tae-young rarely showed the courage of a defense minister. A major decision was made: "The F15 cruises to protect the airspace, and the F16 participates in the operation to strike North Korean artillery positions." I must be severely suppressed by the North Korean artillery fire! ”

There are pros and cons to the participation of fighters in the war.

Advantageous. The fighters have an excellent line of sight and a great advantage in striking and will certainly greatly ease the tense situation.

The downside is that the participation of fighters in the war will expand the scale of the war. It is possible to provoke a full-scale war.

Previously, Kim Tae-young had been difficult to decide whether to let the fighter enter the war.

I can witness the tragic situation of the South Korean side on Yeonpyeong Island. And considering the particularity of Kim Yun-ho's identity at the moment, he finally made a slightly radical decision: F16 to join the battle, F15 to standby.

This is also the greatest sincerity that Kim Taeyoung can show.

――

At 2:30 p.m. on November 23, the war broke out on Yeonpyeong Island.

North Korea shelled Yeonpyeong Island after test-firing artillery shells near Yeonpyeong Island.

In the first round of shelling, the South Korean side did not have time to return fire and 1 K9 was damaged.

In the second round of artillery fire, the South Korean side began to return fire, and the two sides officially exchanged fire.

The North Korean side mainly shelled the K9 piloted by Kim Yoon-ho. It did not cause further losses to the South Korean side.

However, the ROK side did not hit the target when it returned fire, and also did not cause losses to the DPRK artillery positions.

Shortly thereafter. The DPRK and the ROK held a third round of contests.

In the third round of shelling, South Korean F16 fighters participated in the battle, and both the DPRK and the ROK suffered actual losses.

The South Korean military base was hit by incendiary shells, and a large area caught fire.

The North Korean military base on Maishima Island was shelled and suffered huge losses.

As for whether the artillery positions of the North Korean side suffered losses, it remains to be verified.

After the F16 fighter entered the war, the military strength on the battlefield underwent major changes.

Fearful of the threat of F16 fighters, the North Korean side withdrew its troops.

And the South Korean side did not dare to expand the scale of the battlefield, and accepted it when it saw it.

So after the third round of shelling, the war on Yeonpyeong Island officially stopped.

According to later statistics: North Korea fired more than 170 shells during the shelling of Yeonpyeong Island, of which 60 hit Yeonpyeong Island. As a result, more than a dozen officers and soldiers of the South Korean side were killed and wounded, and a large area of fire broke out at the military base and Buksan on Yeonpyeong Island.

The ROK's four K9s returned fire with a total of more than 80 shells, causing serious damage to the DPRK's military facilities on Mukodo, ominous casualties, and ominous losses of the DPRK's artillery.

During the 30-minute artillery bombardment of Yeonpyeong Island, the artillery units of the DPRK side performed remarkably.

The DPRK has used outdated artillery equipment and cheap artillery shells to inflict heavy losses on the South Korean military base on Yeonpyeong Island, and its military quality is worthy of recognition.

On the South Korean side, the only commendable thing is Kim Yun-ho's performance.

Kim Yoon-ho drove the K9 to lure the North Korean shelling, protected the island's residents, and bought valuable time for the South Korean side to return fire with four K9s, which is a heroic feat.

As for the performance of the 'god robe' K9, which was pinned on by the South Korean side, it is simply unbearable to look at it directly.

A total of 6 K9s, 3 were lost before the battle.

2 accidents and simply could not participate in the war; One vehicle was damaged by shells and was urgently repaired during the war.

At the beginning of the war, Han lost half of his main combat strength, and the result can be imagined.

And the unstable quality of K9 can also be blamed on the problem of the level of the military industry.

However, the weakness of the K9 when returning fire was entirely a matter of the quality of the artillerymen.

It can be said that in this shelling incident on Yeonpyeong Island, the South Korean military has exposed many serious problems.

However, these are not urgent problems, and the Ministry of National Defense is currently concerned about Kim Yun-ho's safety.

For political purposes, the South Korean military certainly does not want anything to happen to Kim Yoon-ho.

But the situation at the scene was so bad that K9 was killed in the fire, and Kim Yunho's life was in danger.

This cast a shadow over everyone's hearts, and the clouds were thick. (To be continued.) )
