Chapter 224: The Countryside

Chapter 224: The Countryside

The operation began a few hours later, and just as the operation was about to begin, I realized that this grain station was far from being as simple as I thought, it was not only hiding a gun-sighting radar but also a dozen helicopters we needed, it was a secret military base.

The fighters of the special reconnaissance brigade were divided into two teams, one team led by Lin Xue was on standby on the helicopter in the grain depot according to the original plan, and all the personnel were ready for battle on the helicopter, and the helicopter was in a state of readiness, as long as they received my order, they would arrive at the scene and enter the battle within a few minutes. The other team is led by me, which is actually the platoon of the hometown people, and the task is needless to say, of course, it is to follow the convoy to protect the safety of the artillery aiming.

"Battalion commander!" Before leaving, the hometown handed me a cigarette, raised his head at the convoy and said: "They have already done some thoughts, and lo and behold, there are some things hanging behind the car, and we can't tell which one is the real radar!" ”

"Hmm!" I took the cigarette and nodded, my hometown is right, although the fake radar is not done, but the soldiers of the alert detachment don't know where to get some things that look similar to the artillery sighting radar, they are all covered with camouflage nets like the real artillery sighting radar, and it is really not easy to distinguish them in this dark night.

"Report to the battalion commander!" Company Commander He trotted all the way to me and saluted: "The troops are all ready, please instruct the battalion commander!" ”

Company Commander He is the company commander of the alert detachment, I also met him at the moment I walked into the warehouse, the grade is not big, but he shows a kind of ability and agility in his gestures, according to Chief of Staff Zhang, although he has not participated in the counterattack, but he has supported Vietnam to fight the Yankees, and the time is not short.

"Hmm!" I nodded and casually asked, "Where is the real artillery sighting radar in the convoy?" ”

"Report to the battalion commander, in the middle and rear!" Company Commander He 'stood up' and replied: "The superiors think that the arrangement at the front is easy to be attacked by the enemy!" ”

Without thinking about it, I responded: "Arrange the artillery sighting radar to the third car!" ”

"This ......," Company Commander He looked at Staff Officer Zhang who was standing beside me with some embarrassment.

Staff Officer Zhang said with some unhappiness: "What is this? Didn't you hear my orders? Unconditionally obey the orders of Camp Commander Cui! ”

"Yes!" Company Commander He 'straightened' up, and then turned around without hesitation for half a minute and carried out my order.

Seeing this, I couldn't help but secretly praise, Staff Officer Zhang is really a smart person, as the so-called employment is not suspicious and suspicious people are not needed, Staff Officer Zhang can only let me be fully responsible at this time. However, I did not give this order to be tempted, but to feel ...... The superiors would think that the rear of the convoy was safer and the front was more vulnerable, so the Vietnamese agents could also think that from this point of view, it was safer to put the artillery radar in the front.

After shaking hands with Lin Xue and Li Zhifu and saying goodbye, I waved my hand and boarded the car with my hometown and his soldiers.

The convoy was composed of 12 cars, and originally a guard company and a special reconnaissance platoon only needed four cars, but that would make the target too obvious, and on the other hand, it would be inconvenient for the personnel to be crowded in the carriages in case there was any sudden incident, so more than double the number of cars was arranged, and the value of the cars was almost negligible compared to the artillery sighting radar.

At the head of the convoy were five side three-wheeled soldiers, who were either armed with submachine guns or light machine guns, and their mission was to reconnoiter in front of one and ...... Just walk ahead and see if there are mines on the road......

Such a convoy seemed to be vulnerable to attack, and I knew very well from the battlefield that no matter how good the quality of the fighters sitting in the car was, as long as a few rockets came, they could still burn the people in the car into roast pigs, and we didn't even have time to react, let alone fight back.

However, I soon realized that things were not as simple as I had imagined, because after the convoy turned a corner, two camouflaged tanks suddenly appeared in the darkness to protect the convoy.

"Battalion Commander He!" I shouted into the walkie-talkie, "Why didn't anyone tell me there was a tank escort before?" ”

I have to admit that I was taken aback by these two tanks, I thought that the Vietnamese agents had such a great ability to find tanks in our country to attack the convoy!

"What?" Company Commander He replied with some surprise: "The battalion commander doesn't know? I...... I thought Counselor Zhang had already told you......"

I couldn't help but sweat when I heard this, our emergency operation could indeed catch the Vietnamese army agents by surprise, but in some ways we were not fully prepared ourselves. But then again, the current army will still have many coordination problems even on the battlefield, let alone in the rear.

At this time, I became worried about the special forces of the Vietnamese army, they were special forces, and they were in a hurry, and they could not bring many heavy weapons, in which case they saw that there were tanks to escort them...... Do you dare to launch a surprise attack on our convoy?

Whatever! If they don't make a surprise attack, we won't have much to lose, at most it will be a waste of hard work and effort, and we can also keep the artillery and radar safe. It would be better if they made a surprise attack, and if you dealt with them, you wouldn't have to worry about it anymore!

The car drove forward on the highway at a degree of 4o kilometers per hour, and the reason why it was maintained was because the tanks in front had difficulty driving in this dark night, as I learned on the battlefield, the visibility of the night vision devices of our tanks was very low, even on this road.

The light of several searchlights was like a sharp sword 'shooting' around, and constantly sweeping around, like a few bright eyes always keeping an eye on the surrounding movements.

It should be said that the alert detachment is very well prepared, these searchlights are mounted on the roof of the car, and behind each searchlight there is a soldier with a light machine gun on standby, it is conceivable that as long as they show any trouble, they will not hesitate to 'shoot' rows of bullets at the target......

However, I know that these preparations are far from enough, there is no such thing as an airtight defense in this world, and there is no defense without flaws, the question is whether the Vietnamese army agents can find this flaw and quickly formulate a battle plan.

Can they do that? I do not know! Somewhere in my heart, I hope they can do it, because only then will the efforts we put in be meaningful, but I hope they can't do it, because I have experienced too many fights and killings for this reason so far, and now I have left the battlefield and returned to the rear, and suddenly I have a feeling of wanting to rest, that is, I don't know if the Vietnamese army special forces will give me this opportunity to rest......

At first, I thought that the Vietnamese army agents would attack us, but as time passed, my confidence faded little by little. According to Staff Officer Zhang, the time it took us to arrive at the airport from the grain station was only ten minutes, and even if it took more than twenty minutes for us to march quickly, more than ten minutes had passed now.

That is, it is only a few minutes away from the airfield, and there are large forces of our army at the airfield, in other words, in case of any sudden situation, the troops at the airfield will only need a few minutes to arrive, and it is obviously unwise to attack here. Of course, the warriors were well aware of this, so one of the nerves that had been crumbling gradually relaxed.

Maybe I overestimated the Vietnamese agents, because they were too rushed to prepare? Or is their intelligence work not up and they don't know that we're going to do it tonight? Or...... Did they realize that we had set a trap for them? But anyway, we're using real radar, and even if they know it's a real trap, they'll jump down......

While I was thinking nonsense, the convoy turned a corner along the road and entered a small village. Like any other village, it was dark except for a few street lamps, and at first glance it didn't look unusual, but I felt that something was wrong...... It was so quiet that there wasn't even a dog barking, and it didn't even wake the villagers to poke their heads out curiously as our tanks rumbled by......

Suddenly, I understood why the Vietnamese agents had not done it until now. All our preparations were geared towards the Vietnamese army coming out of the woods or grass beside the road to surprise us, but we never thought that they would use the village and the civilians!

I couldn't help but curse myself in my heart, how could I not think of this? The Vietnamese army is very good at using civilians as shields in their own country, not to mention that they are still in China, where civilians are all Chinese...... Once the fight starts, the Vietnamese agents will not have any scruples, but we will throw a mouse......

"All units should be vigilant!" Thinking of this, I immediately ordered into the walkie-talkie: "Speed up the passage through the residential area, and immediately transfer the helicopter detachment!" ”

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

……

After a few answers, all the fighters '' their guns as if they had been stimulated and were ready for battle, and the driver stepped on the gas 'door' and rushed forward with full horsepower.

However, it was already too late, and just as the convoy was turning a corner along the road in the village, the explosion of a grenade and the whistling of bazookas suddenly sounded behind it.

The Vietnamese agents did come, and as I imagined, the focus of their attack was on the back half of the convoy...... Roa。
