Chapter 120: The Vietnamese People

Only, dry mouth K. Chapter 120 The Vietnamese people, according to the order of Commander Wang, I did not dare to slack off, and immediately ordered a few soldiers to take the Vietnamese commander back along the 'hole' in the wall.

The instructor also quarreled with me for a while because of this, he thought that the Vietnamese army commander, these prisoners are very important, the superiors also attach great importance to this, and at the same time, to be able to capture the senior commander of the Vietnamese army, this is also an honor for our army, so he hopes that I will not be so hasty, I should send more people to send them down, and even said that the Vietnamese army commander will be stuffed into the tank and transported back, but I feel that there is no need at all, our purpose is actually to transport these prisoners of war back, no. If there are too many people, it will attract the attention of the Vietnamese army, if it is to send tanks to escort it, then it is even more to tell the Vietnamese army that we have important people here, you can sneak attack, in other words, we have fought along the street along the way, but we have advanced a few kilometers away, although there are several small detachments to protect our logistics supply line and ensure the contact between our army and the rear troops, but as soon as the troops are scattered, the defense will appear weak, so I did not do what the instructor wanted, but simply let the Vietnamese army commander and his staff officers change into the military uniforms of the PLA soldiers, and then let Yang Songjian take the five friends of the soldiers to easily escort them down。

Facts also proved that I was right, and Yang Songjian's report soon came from the walkie-talkie, that they had successfully 'handed over' the prisoners to their faces, and planned to come up with a militia team carrying ammunition and 'medicine' to join us. Look, don't think about this matter at all, it's not so complicated, it's simply solved. As I once heard, it seemed that someone was going to transport the world's largest diamond from Africa to England, and someone even thought of using a military warship to escort it, but no one could have imagined that the diamond would only cost a few pence, buy a stamp, and mail it back safely

build fortifications", as soon as the battlefield was cleared, I passed on the order non-stop. The soldiers responded and began to build trenches and anti-tank trenches around the municipal building.

Although the municipal fǔ building is a reinforced 'concrete' concrete structure, it is relatively strong. But I can't throw all the strength of a battalion in a building. If this is the case, it is very likely that the Vietnamese army will besiege the regiment or end the battle with long-range artillery fire. So I asked the soldiers to build interconnected trenches with the municipal fǔ as the center of the circle and other buildings as the backing. Having learned from the experience of the last battle, I asked the soldiers to occupy as much as possible the entrance of the higher buildings around the municipal fǔ and use this building as a base to build 'cross' moats and passages to connect them. Compared to the high ground, a huge building does not seem to need many people to defend, just like the last time our army attacked the supply and marketing building of the Vietnamese army, if you really want to attack layer by floor, you don't know how long it will be. But there is no doubt that the Vietnamese army can also use our method to blow up the entire building by means of demolition after occupying the first floor. So the model of urban warfare was simply conceived in my mind. The taller buildings can be used as commanding heights, and the roofs can be arranged with mortars and machine guns to suppress the enemy's assault troops. A few more trenches were dug downstairs to resist the attack of the Vietnamese army in the front, and at the same time, it could also prevent Vietnamese military tanks and other troops from forcibly breaking into the first floor of the building to carry out a blast, and the firepower of the building was connected with the battle surface downstairs

It just so happens that there are also two suitable buildings around the municipal fǔ, one is a five-storey hotel, and it is said that it is different next to the municipal fǔ, and there are hotels in such a backward country as Vietnam. The other is a one-story school, although it is not high, but the defense area is very long, from left to right, the entire building is several hundred meters, which is very advantageous for the deployment of troops. So I placed the fifth company, the sixth company, and the fourth company on this building, forming a kind of corner defense posture. Each company then 'draws' a platoon and Battalion Commander Wu's tank unit as a reserve force, ready to attack at any time in the middle.

Of course, whether this defense can work or not will have to be tested by the battlefield.

As a person who came down from the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, I am not familiar with fighting in cities, and there is only so much I can do. I looked back at the five-star red flag on the roof of the municipal building behind me, and I couldn't help but feel a sigh in my heart. Since the founding of our country, it seems that we have never 'planted' our own national flag in the soil of other countries, and the flag of the volunteers during the period of resisting US aggression and aiding Korea is just a piece of red cloth).

Battalion commander", at this time, Li Zhifu came to my side, and pointed to the people stranded in front of the municipal fǔ square, and said in embarrassment, what should they do. ”,

The location of the municipal fǔ is more important, it is located right on the corner of the journal shape, so as long as it can be held firmly, it is actually controlled by a street. In other words, it controlled the retreat of the Vietnamese People's Army garrison. That's why I let the Fifth Company come and garrison it. Although the troops of the Fifth Company are all new recruits, they are all brought out by me, and I know them very well, knowing that although they have not been in the war for a long time, they have been targeting 'sex' before the war! The five companies were placed in the most important position of the municipal fǔ.

What's there to do about it? Qian looked at the Vietnamese people and replied, "Wouldn't it be okay to send them to the rear as prisoners?" ,

But,", Li Zhifu hesitated and said that they are the people, according to our discipline, they can't be taken prisoners, besides, there are five people, let alone the people, "Can we send back such a large team of 100 people." Thinking about it, I also feel that what Li Zhifu said makes sense, if you really want people to send them back, whether to send a company or a platoon to send them back. There are more people sent, and our troops are already understaffed, so how can such a large team not attract the attention of the Yue devils. What's more, how can they report to their superiors after sending them to the rear? Captive? Five or six hundred civilian prisoners?

Then send them away", I said.

I said it, but they wouldn't go," Li Zhifu replied.

Refuse to go. Why don't you go? "I'm weird." and they are probably afraid that we will shoot us in the back",

How can this be reasonable", as soon as I heard it, I was so angry, if we want to shoot, why play this trick, don't you shoot at them, you can also shoot them",

That's it", Li Zhifu also said with deep sympathy, but they are just afraid, this person is afraid that his head will not be good, or the battalion commander, you go with them, ",

Gotta get it", I helplessly shouted at the soldiers Hu Shaowen",

Hu Shaowen, who was digging a trench, crawled out of the trench and ran quickly in front of me in a few clicks. At these times, I have always been busy commanding the troops to fight, and I haven't seen this little soldier for a long time, but when I saw him, I only felt as if he had changed into a friend, his face was a little more mature and resolute, and his eyes were very brave to meet my gaze, and he was no longer the little ghost who turned pale with fright at every turn. I couldn't help but pat him on the shoulder and said come with me",

Yes", Hu Shaowen replied, leaned the submachine gun on his back, and followed closely behind me. When he took Hu Shaowen to the Vietnamese people, he glanced at the blood and mud, and they opened their voices and shouted, "Fellow villagers, we, the Chinese People's Liberation Army, will not kill innocents indiscriminately." Don't worry, you are not soldiers, and we have no weapons in your hands, we will not embarrass you, you can go wherever you can go, where you are safe", I said Hu Shaowen while translating my words to the common people. But before I could finish speaking, an old man stood up and replied in stiff Chinese: Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, we know that the army of ** treats prisoners preferentially (there was a period of comrades and brothers in China and Vietnam, so the Vietnamese people also have a certain understanding of the policy of our army), and they know that you will not kill us, but where can we go. Lang Son was surrounded by you, go back to your own troops, you also saw that they were shooting us with guns just now", I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, this old man is really right, for them, this Lang Son really has no safe place. If you can't get out and go out, you will continue to hide in the houses, sooner or later, they will be occupied by our army, and they will return to their own troops, and they are afraid that the Vietnamese army will use them as a shield again. Even if they are not used as a shield by the Vietnamese army, the Vietnamese people know very well that the rout of the Vietnamese army will only be a matter of time before they come back to us

Comrade of the People's Liberation Army", and then the old man opened his mouth again, please let us be prisoners, we haven't eaten for a long time, you treat us as soldiers, we are prisoners", The Vietnamese people around me also screamed with a sigh of clarity, as if they all wanted to be our captives, seeing this, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, as someone else's prisoner, I don't know, if I am my prisoner, it is not as they think, I can get preferential treatment, but if it is a real civilian, I really can't do it, I can't help but feel a headache, there is a reason in this world to let them go, they will not go, but they really seem to have a reason not to go.

Battalion commander", at this time the instructor did not know when to come up. As soon as I saw him, it was like seeing a savior, didn't the instructor just take care of the problems of political education? This problem was just handed over to him, so he dragged him up, and you came just in time to solve the problem of the Vietnamese people, and then do ideological work for them to let them go."

No problem", the instructor thought to himself, this is not easy, so he agreed in one bite.

Hu Shaowen",

to",

Translate to the instructor", I ordered me to translate the meaning accurately.

Yes", Hu Shaowen promised to have this difficulty, because as a border citizen, he was also very unfamiliar with the slogan-style words of the instructor. But I can't care so much, I slipped away for a while, and ran away, and the instructor chased after him, shouting to the battalion commander Yang Platoon Commander, they came back with the ammunition 'medicine', let you take a look", this is a good thing, at this time I am most worried about the problem of playing the 'medicine', saying that this way through the wall to make 'holes', plus a tough battle, our ammunition' 'medicine' is almost consumed. What's more, our army is now on the defensive, so we need more ammunition and 'medicine' to hold it up. The wind and the fire are gone

When I returned to the municipal government, I saw that the militia soldiers were recruiting boxes of bullets and shells, and Yang Songjian and the others immediately pulled a militia forward and reported to me as soon as they saw me, "Battalion commander, this is the militia captain Xu Yong, he has brought us ammunition and 'medicine'".

Hello Battalion Commander Cui", before Yang Songjian finished speaking, Xu Yong took the first step to hold my hand, and said with a happy smile, Battalion Commander Cui, we heard that you fought a big victory in the rear, knocked down the municipal fǔ of the devils, and captured a regiment commander and chief of staff alive, we all want to come up and take a look, but none of them can rob me, let me fight to come up, ",

Hmm", I really didn't expect the news to spread so quickly and already cause a stir in the rear. However, this seems to be normal, if it is not enough to occupy an ordinary place, but now it is the city of Lang Son that is occupied, which is undoubtedly of considerable political significance.

Battalion Commander Cui, don't worry", and then Xu Yong held my hand and said, as long as it is the ammunition and supplies you ask for, we will resolutely overcome them, no matter how difficult it is, we will send them on time".

Thank you so much", I kept busy. I know very well how important Xu Yong's words are to our troops, and if they can really do it, it means that our army will no longer have logistical worries. Otherwise, they will only have to fight hard in this difficulty, that difficulty, and this battle.

Not to mention that the troops transporting ammunition and 'medicine' will not be, and anything can happen in this era of war, especially in this era of war. I once saw two soldiers kneeling on each other on the battlefield, you cry and cry one by one, and when I asked, I realized that it was the platoon commander of one of the soldiers who was injured, but the first aid kit ran out and asked the other soldier for it. It happened that another soldier was from another company, and according to the discipline of their unit, the first aid kit could only be used by the wounded of his own company, otherwise he would have made a mistake and would be punished. So the soldier who was anxious to ask for a first-aid kit to save his life knelt on the ground and cried begging the soldier who didn't dare to make a mistake, and he also knelt on the ground and cried and said that he didn't dare to violate discipline, what the fuck is this, I kicked the soldier who didn't dare to make a mistake to the ground, and threw the first-aid kit to another soldier, and when he left, he said to the soldier who was kicked down, "Your first-aid kit was snatched by me, so you didn't make a mistake". This is all off-topic, casually took a list of ammunition 'medicine' handed to me by Yang Songjian, only to see that it reads 100,000 rounds of ammunition for submachine guns, 10,000 rounds of bullets for machine guns, 10,000 rounds of bullets for heavy machine guns, and then rockets, recoilless shells, mortar shells, which seem like a lot, but I know that this is a big sigh, that is, a battalion and a base number of ammunition 'medicine', if it really fights, it will be pressed into the submachine gun." But when I thought that this 'medicine' would continue to be transported from the rear, I was a little relieved.

Battalion commander, battalion commander", at this time, the instructor hurriedly ran in, and said with a red face, I can't complete the task, those Yue devils are not right, it is the Vietnamese people, they refuse to go", I couldn't help but feel bored when I heard this, I thought that this instructor had three heads and six arms, but I didn't expect it to be the same as me.

Battalion commander", the militia captain came up to me and asked if I could help? ”,

Not. I couldn't help but be stunned, right, isn't there a ready-made person in front of me? I don't know how to use it

How many of you are there? ", I asked.

Yes, there are more than 100 people", Xu Yong replied.

Can you escort a group of captives back? I gave a simple explanation, they are all Vietnamese civilians, let them go, they refuse to leave, they will be our prisoners, you say they are here, how can we fight",

There is also this kind of thing", Xu Yong became energetic when he heard it, Battalion Commander Cui, this has a considerable positive effect on us, you think about it, the Vietnamese people would rather be our prisoners than go, this does not show that our army is the desire of the people, this is a good thing, and it is a great thing, ",

Hmm", when Xu Yong said this, I realized that if this matter was publicized in the newspaper or internationally, how much impact would it have, although it is not what it seems on the surface, then most of the Vietnamese people do it for their lives, not because of anyone's desire. But who's going to look into that?

That's right", the instructor quickly nodded in agreement, and said that all the people must be sent back, and they must be vigorously rewarded".

That's right", Xu Yong took over this glorious task without giving in, and said that we will definitely complete this task and report the good news to you when we go back", and when the militia captain escorted the Vietnamese people out of our sight, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At the same time, he secretly said that he was ashamed that the political acumen of those of us who were soldiers was not as good as that of a militia captain. Later, the news from our side also told us that our army did indeed do what the militia captain wanted, and later the Vietnamese people also appeared in the newspapers, and they kept complaining on the radio about the crime of the Vietnamese army shooting at them, and how our army protected their training and fought with the Vietnamese army almost the whole time, so their combat experience and combat effectiveness were already in the leading position at this time. Just as the combat habits of the volunteer army are also the most difficult and dangerous places for whichever unit can fight the most, of course, I will also put it!
