Chapter 038: I Can't Catch Up When I Run
From Gushan to the southeast, across the Waiyom River, although the terrain is low and flat, and the population is gradually dense, but in line with the trend of the Red River is the distribution of low hills with an altitude of more than two or three hundred meters. After years of war and a lack of youth, these low hills have not been developed. On the hills grows a thatch called airplane grass. This kind of grass has an unusually developed root system, and it grows very crazy, not only does it like to grow taller than people, but it is a sea of grass from a distance. There are many of these seas of grass in Vietnam, and once you enter, it is easy to get lost in them.
However, due south of Gu Shan is the peak of more than 400 meters, all the way past the orange pond, the terrain is low and flat. The hills generally run northwest-southeast and are almost parallel to Route 7 passing through Tangtang.
After nightfall, the two squads marched separately, looking after each other. The 10th squad is in front, and Wang Baoyi is still following in the 12th squad. This southbound journey entered the sea of grass several times.
From time to time, I would pass through some villages, and some old and weak women and children would be left behind. Even when the dog barked, no one came out to take a look.
However, things are not always smooth sailing. It was less than 2 kilometers away from the front line of the position of the 2nd Company of Dai Nai, and it was about to pass through the defense line of the Vietnamese army. Although everyone wore Vietnamese military uniforms and straw hat-style steel helmets, it was impossible to go deep in a big way.
"Xu Zegui, Shi Lei, Li Bowei, on!" The team was lying behind a low hill, and Guo Jinsong ordered the three of them. Ahead was a defensive support point for the Vietnamese army. There is a fire leaking out, which is easy to notice. Deputy Captain Wang sent a pair of low-light night vision devices, which were equipment that had just been finalized and produced.
When it comes to China's domestic low-light night vision devices, it has to be involved in the Korean War. It is said that in the middle and late stages of the Korean War, a certain unit of the Volunteer Army failed to attack at night several times in a row, and after analyzing the troops, it was found that it was not a leak, that is, the reason was unknown. So a certain unit changed its tactics, succeeded in a surprise attack, and when cleaning the battlefield, it found a strange thing - American-made low-light night vision devices
The equipment was backward, and night raids were an important means of the Chinese army at that time. Mi Di was frightened by the night attack and also came up with a countermeasure. The night vision devices that had appeared in World War II were intensified by the Midi military and put into the Korean War, which did cause great trouble to the Chinese army at first.
But at this time, the full name of the night vision device is active infrared night vision device. Its working principle is that the infrared searchlight emits a beam of near-infrared light that cannot be seen by the human eye to irradiate the target, and the infrared light reflected back by the target is focused on the image through the infrared objective lens, so as to convert and enhance an invisible infrared image into a visible light image.
The volunteer soldiers did not understand, but they had good discipline and everything was captured and returned to the public. The red light night vision device is sent to China, such as the treasure, and then the research and imitation are carried out, and the manufacturer is in Haikou, Spring City. It is said that when He Huzi was in charge of the military industry, he also went to the West Mountain at night to observe the sea ridge with a domestic low-light night vision device. For a long time in the world, this technology has been at a high level of sophistication, and the state has kept it strictly secret, and it is only now that it has been used to equip the troops. Hong Yan could imagine the surprised expression on the face of the head of the Eastern and Western Front Command when he saw it.
Now that you have this, and Guo Jinsong uses it quite hard, okay! Anyway, I have it, so I took it out and looked at it by the way. Last time, I didn't think I was as far away as I felt.
"Why do you have one?" Guo Jinsong asked in surprise.
"I picked one up, I didn't know it before, it turned out to be for this." Hong Yan pretended to be stupid and didn't tell the truth.
"Come less. Look at it differently! He is not polite to Hong Yan now, and regardless of whether he agrees or not, the domestic ones are stuffed over and snatched the things in his hands.
Hong Yan came up with some good things from time to time, which made people scratch their heads. Guo Jinsong will not be stupid enough to ask him about corruption or private possession.
Putting a rack in the eye and turning on the power, he immediately exclaimed: "It's so clear!" He didn't look back, and said to Hong Yan: "Look at it, Zegui and they are coming!" ”
How do they know that Guo Jinsong's Midi's low-light night vision device is the latest generation of products, which is more than one or two levels higher than domestic knock-offs, with higher resolution, better performance, and better reliability. It has the ability to generate images in very low light conditions - moonless nights.
Hong Yan was too lazy to look at it, and stuffed the night vision device in his hand to Wang Xiaotie next to him. Wang Xiaotie was inexplicably surprised, and he put it in his eyes like a captain, and he couldn't see anything in the dark. Hong Yan turned on the power. Wang Xiaotie still couldn't help but exclaim "ah", but his voice was relatively small.
Hong Yan suddenly had an extra M21 in his hand and aimed at Xu Zegui's left front. Shi Yanbin, who had been observing the master, stared at the front like a fried hair, and the heavy machine roared at any time. Just as everyone was preparing, the gun in Hong Yan's hand rang out, and then quickly pulled the bolt, and another bullet was fired. Despite the flame suppressors and mufflers, they are still very visible and audible in the dark.
At the same time, the sound of submachine guns in a dense field of forward positions rang out. The muzzle fireworks were brighter in the night.
When Xu Zegui heard the gunshot, he dragged his tongue and ran quickly, and a string of bullets chased after him. Shi Lei and Li Bowei also bent down and ran behind them.
Shi Yanbin's heavy machine rang out, suppressing the opponent's shot. "Rush!" Guo Jin let go and waved. Several commandos, immediately scattered and leaped forward, ready to attack and advance. Today's teacher is not good, and the first tongue will be discovered. Then you can only force your way through. Hong Yan quickly pulled the bolt, and with each shot, the other party dumbed out a gun.
"Let's go!" Hong Yan pulled Shi Yanbin. The latter ran away with the heavy machine on his shoulder, and Wang Xiaotie followed. After running a dozen steps, a mortar * shell immediately fell from the position of the heavy machine.
Hong Yan held the gun in his hand, turned back to Shi Yanbin and said, "Follow me!" "Hong Yan's gun rang out a few times from time to time, and the screams could be faintly heard in the distance." Team Guo, watch the mines under your feet! Hong Yan roared in the dark. Mines were laid less than 50 metres from the forward position.
Hong Yan fired bullets from a distance, and at the same time shot at the ground in front of him, after the gunshot, the "boom" mine exploded, but fortunately the team members were far away and there were no casualties. However, the team members were surprised by how Hong Yan saw the mine in the soil. Only the M21 is possible to explode mines under shallow soil, and a submachine gun or 56 and a half will not have this effect.
Although the team members were running, they were far from being able to match Hong Yan's speed, and the mortars were blowing up after the team members. Soon, the chasing flood rock came. "Yanbin, don't follow me! Stay safe. Hong Yan exerted a little force at his feet, jumped on a five-meter-high cliff, jumped a few times to the top of the mountain, changed to M16 and shot a few quickly, and then quieted.
Five minutes later, the team climbed to the top of the hill and set up a defensive formation.
"Damn, I can't keep up with it, it's really bt!" Qian Jinyu came up and gasped. A steep cliff was enough for them to climb.
"Well, I haven't had time to shoot yet!" Zheng Xingang, a light machine operator, said with a smile.
"It's easy! MD, I'm worried to death! Tian Zhuang followed, but kept moving forward to find a position.
"Grandma, what kind of marksmanship is this, it's all outrageous! The bazookas didn't even have time to load! Lin Yongjun flashed a flashlight and shone a circle of circular fortifications.
Ten minutes later, the 12th squad also arrived. This hill can't be opened. Judging from the arrangement of the Vietnamese army, there were only one or twenty people as always, and they fought if they could fight, but they could not fight guerrilla warfare of harassing, blocking, and then running away.
After listening to the report, Wang Baoyi finally understood how the chief could rest assured that a child would follow the special squad deep behind enemy lines. After this attack, there are twelve known corpses, two high-level shooters, one bazooka shooter, two 60 mortars, and seven submachine gun soldiers. It is said that all of them were shot by Hong Yan, and they were named with one shot. "It's fierce, it's violent!" He commented in his heart. If you have watched the "Hero Series" movie directed by Xiangjiang Wu, it is estimated that you will add a sentence "violent elements who advocate aesthetics".
Hong Yan already felt that he was "offside". In fact, he just had the feeling of a god-wide camera game mode with full firepower. He silently returned to Shi Yanbin's side and accompanied him to arrange the heavy machine position. From here to the Waibo River, there are countless such small hills, and it is impossible for each hill to be arranged with Vietnamese troops, but it is necessary to guard against it.
"Master, you have made meritorious service again!" Shi Yanbin whispered.
"Meritorious? I don't think so! Hong Yan really didn't think about this problem.
Some of the works depict soldiers competing to kill the enemy and make meritorious contributions to the people. There is merit for capturing captives, and merit for capturing them. By the way, it is this capture, the capture of the PLA soldiers is all intact and sealed on the spot, even if their weapons are rudimentary, they will not be replaced.
"Haha, a soldier who doesn't want to make meritorious contributions is not a good soldier!" Shi Yanbin chuckled, quite philosophical.
"Meritorious service should be fine! We came all the way, and the whole team not only completed the assigned mission, but also completed the big additional mission. For example, the arrangement of the artillery regiment, the capture of 402, and the capture of Dainai No. 1 height, if you want to evaluate merit, at least the collective second-class merit can't run, right? ”
Hong Yan is not familiar with the evaluation indicators of military merit. However, he knew that "all those who sacrificed or died of illness and had meritorious deeds during their lifetimes will be evaluated or posthumously awarded the title of hero and model." ”
"There should be no problem!" Shi Yanbin smiled, and then added: "But the soldiers also want to make personal military merits!" ”
Hong Yan scratched his head, a little understood. This big man who seems to be dotting the flute is like a mirror, as if he is offside and robs the players of the credit. "Am I robbing everyone of the credit?"
"That's not it, what's the use of military merit when people die? Master, when the war is over, I will go back with the military merit medal to marry my daughter-in-law, you must come to participate! ”
Thinking about the end of the war and marrying a daughter-in-law, it is not far away! I hope I can all go back alive!
"Okay, I'll definitely participate!" Hong Yan agreed to the cheap apprentice.
Deputy Captain Wang, Guo Jinsong, and Ge Dawei studied the situation and decided to divide their troops and continue to advance. Next, as long as he didn't encounter a large army defense, Hong Yan didn't bother to pay attention, and let Guo Jinsong arrange people to touch the sentry, interrogate, and reconnoiter the enemy's situation to find a breakthrough point. Speaking of which, the Vietnamese army's defensive strength in Lao Cai and Tangtang is overstretched, and there are defenses everywhere and loopholes everywhere. A remnant division and the local armed defense area are too large, and although they are fortified step by step, the defense line is also fragmented and cannot be prevented.
The distance from Gu Shan to the Waipa River is only a dozen kilometers in a straight line, but it is much longer to scratch your tongue and avoid the Vietnamese army and villages.
