Chapter 133: Back to the camp
Dozens of No. 59 tanks drove to the periphery of the bank building one after another in a circle, building a steel defense line, with gun barrels and anti-aircraft machine guns nervously facing the bank building, followed by groups of PLA soldiers relying on the tanks to set up various weapons.
With a "squeak", a jeep drove in after a while, and a familiar figure jumped off the car, and with only two guards, he shouted at the bank building with a loudspeaker: "Battalion Commander Cui...... I'm Staff Officer Li, are you all right? ”
I know why Staff Officer Lee would do this, they dare not guarantee that the bank building is still in our hands. It was clear that if by this time the bank building had fallen into the hands of the enemy, the tanks and troops would have quickly charged.
So I flashed out of the window and said, "Chief of Staff Lee, it's us!" The bank building is still in our hands! ”
As soon as Chief of Staff Li saw me, he was relieved and immediately shouted to the troops behind him: "Put down your gun, put down your gun...... Medic! ”
With the order of Chief of Staff Lee, the fighters were also busy, the tanks were busy turning the muzzles and barrels, the soldiers ran to the inside to change the direction of defense, and the hygienists ran towards us in a group with first-aid kits on their waists.
I jumped out with my hands on the window, and Staff Officer Li hurriedly came up and grabbed my hand and said, "Comrade Cui Wei! Thank you for your hard work, how are the casualties of the soldiers? ”
"It's fine!" I replied.
Our casualties were indeed not large, and when I was using the artillery to fire the 'artillery' just now, I counted the situation and found that there were only seven soldiers who died, and only 14 of them were seriously wounded, including the two who were seriously wounded and the two who bombed Lang Son Middle School.
For such a fierce battle, such casualties can be regarded as very small, thanks to the cover provided by the fortress of the bank building. But what has always choked me is that among the people who sacrificed this sacrifice was Yang Songjian......
It is precisely because of this that the fighters did not cheer as usual when they saw the arrival of reinforcements from our army. I think this is also the reason why Staff Officer Li and others suspect that the bank building has fallen into the hands of the Vietnamese army.
"Squeak!" With a slam of the brakes, another jeep stopped in front of me, and a person got out of the jeep and couldn't help but make me and Staff Officer Li stunned......
"Captain Chu! Why are you here......" Staff Officer Li hurriedly ran up and whispered.
He followed, but neither of us dared to salute him or shout loudly. This is common sense on the battlefield, and no one dares to guarantee that there are Vietnamese snipers staring at us in the dark, so as long as it is an experienced veteran, you know that you can't salute your superiors on the battlefield, especially now that you are still a military commander!
A military commander is on the front line of the battlefield...... This was rare even on the battlefield to resist US aggression and aid Korea, although the battle was over at this time.
The soldiers who were defending around them obviously realized that it was their own commander who was there at this time, and a few soldiers looked back in disbelief, and when they found out that it was really the commander, they immediately raised their guns to defend.
"Comrade Cui Wei!" As soon as Commander Chu came up, he grabbed my hand and said, "It's good to know that you're okay, it's okay to be okay!" Comrades are all right! ”
"It's fine!" I replied 'excitedly': "We only have fourteen casualties!" ”
"Hmmm! Well played! Commander Chu's hands were clenched tightly and said, "I'll repay you when I go back, you are all good!" It is the pride of our PLA! ”
As he spoke, he shook hands with several fighters behind me one after another, and kept saying "Comrades have worked hard." Only the 'excited' soldiers replied vigorously, "Yes, yes!" ”
"Commander......" Staff Officer Li looked around and said with some worry: "You better go back first!" We'll be fine here, I'll deal with ......"
"The soldiers are not afraid of shedding blood and sacrificing here, what am I afraid of?" Commander Chu replied: "Soldiers are also people, and I am also people, all of them were raised by my parents, what else dare not come?" ”
As he spoke, he turned around and patted me on the shoulder and smiled: "Comrade Cui Wei! Do you know how many Yue devils you have defeated? A whole group...... A company defeated a regiment, remarkable! ”
"So much in one regiment?" Although I knew that there were quite a few Vietnamese troops besieging us, I did not expect that there would be a regiment.
"There is indeed a regiment!" Chief of Staff Li nodded and said, "The Vietnamese army has put all the reserves in your direction, and has also used all the surviving tanks and artillery, including the two T62 tanks that have been blocking our offensive direction. Comrade Cui Wei, in this battle, you not only protected the poison gas bombs and smashed the 'yin' plot of the Vietnamese devils, but also restrained the 'elite' of the Vietnamese army to a great extent, so that we were able to smoothly break through the defense line of the Vietnamese army and achieve a comprehensive victory! ”
"I'll talk about that later!" Commander Chu 'interjected' and said: "The most important thing now is to go back and rest well and heal your injuries!" Chief of Staff Lee ......"
"Here!"
"Have you sent the car that arranged for Camp Commander Cui and them to go back?" Commander Chu asked.
"Report to the Commander!" Staff Officer Li kept his voice as low as possible and replied: "My consideration is this, the remnants of the enemy have not been cleared yet, and if it is to send a car, the target is too big, so I think it ...... It's better to walk! If the wounded are not able to move, there is a stretcher......"
"Makes sense! Or is Staff Officer Li thoughtful! Commander Chu nodded, then turned to me and said, "Comrade Cui Wei, I know that you are going to walk with the soldiers, so I won't invite you to take my car, let's go back and see you again!" ”
"Yes!" I answered.
Commander Chu is right, at this time, it is indeed impossible for me to leave the soldiers and go back by car alone.
"Camp Commander Cui!" After Commander Chu left, Staff Officer Li asked, "Are those gas bombs okay?" ”
"It's fine!"
While I was answering Staff Officer Li, I suddenly realized that Commander Chu had never asked a word about the poison gas bomb. He seemed to have confidence in me, and when he saw me, he knew that the gas bomb was safe, so he didn't even ask. This may be the outstanding point of Commander Chu!
After pointing out the location of the gas bombs to Staff Officer Li and telling us the location of the dozen or so gas bombs we had planted, we walked back under the escort of the hygienist and a battalion of the People's Liberation Army.
We're still protected objects...... Originally, I suggested that Staff Officer Li let us go back by ourselves, and that we only need to send a few people to lead the way, but Staff Officer Li resolutely disagreed, because according to his words, we have already made great contributions on the battlefield, and it is not easy to survive, and he must not let us have any more problems. Otherwise, even if he is willing to forgive himself, Commander Wang, Commander Chu, and thousands of PLA troops fighting in Langshan will not forgive him.
Seeing that Staff Officer Li said so seriously, then I will no longer refuse, anyway, now the Vietnamese army in Lang Son has collapsed on the whole front, and our army can't use so many soldiers on the front line, and it will be useless if you don't use it!
The battalion commander who escorted me was a battalion commander, and Staff Officer Li simply introduced to me that his name was Zhang Yongcai, and that he urged us to go down even if he asked him to arrange anything.
I can also understand the mood of Chief of Staff Li, even Commander Chu personally came up to comfort our team regardless of the danger, so if there is something long and two short, he really can't afford it, so if he can hurry up and let us go down, we won't have to wait for half a minute.
"Camp Commander Cui!"
As I walked back, I boredly shared my cigarette with the soldiers and lit it. Unexpectedly, Camp Commander Zhang came up at this time, and he said to me with some embarrassment: "Can you ...... Let the soldiers cooperate, and don't 'smoke'! ”
"Hmm!" It was then that I realized that it was not a pleasant thing to be protected, so I immediately ordered the soldiers to put out their cigarettes.
Camp Commander Zhang thanked me vigorously, as if he had sold him a great favor for just such a trivial matter.
In fact, if you really want to talk about it, I am a battalion commander and he is also a battalion commander, and the two of us actually don't have the saying that anyone is afraid of anyone and who orders whom. But now it seems that Camp Commander Zhang obviously consciously regarded me as his superior......
Perhaps this is the benefit of our victory! Later, I found out that it wasn't just Battalion Commander Zhang, when we walked all the way back, every time we passed through a place, the PLA in that place was under martial law as if facing a great enemy, and some troops even sent tank troops to escort them...... It really made us cry and laugh a little.
The way back was different from when we came, and when we crossed the Qiqiao River, it was not the Qiqiao River bridge that we had fought, but a railroad rail and steel bridge. From Battalion Commander Zhang, I know that this is the railway bridge that Dong Deng passes through Lang Son and then leads to Hanoi, where our army also had a fierce battle with the Vietnamese army, and the Vietnamese army once wanted to blow up this bridge to achieve the purpose of preventing our army's train from going south, but it was blocked by our artillery and failed.
All this can be seen from the fact that there are no buildings in a radius of more than 1,000 meters on the south side of the bridge, only layers of overlapping craters. This can't help but give me a sense of pride, once upon a time, our army could only let the enemy's artillery blockade on the battlefield of resisting US aggression and aid Korea, but now...... Our army can also block the enemy with artillery fire.
After crossing the railroad rail and steel bridge, we arrived at Lang Son South District, and the number of soldiers and migrant workers along the road gradually increased, and when they arrived here, Battalion Commander Zhang and his soldiers couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. But what makes me a little strange is ...... The soldiers and migrant workers along the way all looked at us with very strange eyes.
"Battalion commander!" Alziri quipped at me, "Look at the way the other people look at us, they think we're captives!" ”
"Oh!" Listening to Al Ziri's words, I realized that we are all wearing the uniforms of the Vietnamese army now, and we are also caught in the middle by the troops of a battalion of Battalion Commander Zhang, not to mention it...... It really looked like a group of captives being escorted back. The only thing that doesn't seem to be the fact that we still have guns on our backs.
So I couldn't help but smile bitterly and ordered: "Comrades! Take off the hats of the devils! Otherwise, there will be stinky 'chicken' eggs flying towards us! ”
With a coax, the soldiers couldn't help laughing at themselves, and then a sonorous sound sounded on the ground, and the straw hat helmets of the Vietnamese army were thrown all over the ground.
"Don't worry!" Battalion Commander Zhang leaned down and said: "We and the troops are all angry, maybe some migrant workers who have just come up don't know the situation." But even if they don't know the situation, they won't throw things at you, there are three disciplines and eight points of attention, right? ”
As soon as Battalion Commander Zhang said this, the soldiers couldn't help but laugh again.
Battalion Commander Zhang is only afraid that he is a new soldier who has not been on the battlefield for a long time, and he still doesn't know where the three major disciplines and eight points of attention have long been thrown by us veterans.
"Camp Commander Cui! Is it Camp Commander Choi? After walking forward for more than ten minutes, a team suddenly came up in the darkness of the street, and it was the hometown people who took the lead.
The soldiers couldn't help but cheer and rushed forward past Battalion Commander Zhang's troops, hugging and shaking hands for a while, and the scene was 'chaotic' and 'chaotic'.
I hadn't taken a few steps forward when suddenly there was an extra person in my arms as soon as I saw a 'flower', and then I heard Liu Yun's cry...... I couldn't help but be surprised, when did this girl become so bold, in front of so many people. I'm nothing as a modern person, but in this day and age......
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look around in shock, Yichen looked at us with a smile next to me, and the people from my hometown and the other warriors didn't turn their heads and pretend not to see it...... It's just that the expression on that face is even more embarrassing than actually seeing it.
So I slowly pushed Liu Yun away and reminded her in a low voice: "There are so many here, why are you ......?"
"I don't care!" Liu Yun's eyes were red and swollen and replied: "Anyway, I have already lost myself in front of others, and whoever let you go won't tell me!" ”
"What?" Liu Yun's snatching of white made me a little 'touched'.
"Camp Commander Cui!" Only then did the people from my hometown come up and say to me with a wry smile: "After you leave, I will be miserable." Comrade Liu Yun insisted that we go and pull you back, and that we have to save you...... He also said confidently, 'Battalion Commander Cui is usually so good to you, and you don't help any of you when the battalion commander is in trouble!' You say you're on a mission, and we can't act without orders? But this Comrade Liu Yun is just unrelenting, and he wants to save you with a gun several times! ”
"And that's not all!" Yi Chen smiled and said, "She also wanted to go to Master Wang a few times to ask for someone, if I hadn't pulled it!" You have to let people be locked up until they are confined! Commander Wang is commanding the war, if everyone goes to him to ask for people, then it will be repaid! ”
"Nonsense!" Listening to me, I couldn't help but reprimand Liu Yun: "What do you think the war is for?" Pretending to be a family? Why is there no organization, discipline, or sex! ”
At this time, where did Liu Yun dare to speak, he had already blushed and hid behind Yichen's back, Yichen also understood what she meant, smiled at us helplessly and took her to hide in the crowd.
"Battalion commander!" The hometown handed over a cigarette and said: "Comrade Liu Yun's intentions for you are obvious to anyone, don't let them down!" ”
"Say what?"
"Liu Yunke is a good comrade!" The hometown said: "Many people can't look forward to it!" Not to mention ......"
The next words of the hometown people will not say much, just a few hehes. In fact, even if the people in his hometown don't say it, I understand his thoughts, Liu Yun's father is Commander Liu...... With my military exploits and Liu Shunyi's father-in-law, the future after returning to China can be said to be limitless.
But somehow, my heart is getting heavier and heavier, Liu Yun's previous performances are nothing if they are in modern times, but in this era...... In fact, it is already public.
It should be said that this is not a good thing for me. It's good to reject a 'girl' in modern times, although in modern times I don't refuse to come, but I also know that this is nothing in modern times. But in this day and age, it's hard to say, and if it doesn't end in public secret, it's nothing, but now the warriors know about it...... If I refuse, I don't know what will happen.
At this time, I regretted that I didn't make it clear to Liu Yun before, and now I'm afraid that it will end a little badly.
"Battalion commander!" Seeing my embarrassed look, the hometown people asked, "Do you already have a wife?" ”
"Nope!" I shook my head.
"Is that a match?" The hometown asked again.
I couldn't help but be stunned, and it took me a long time before I remembered that people in this era call their 'girlfriend' friends "objects", and they call falling in love "matching people......
"Neither!" I shook my head anyway.
"Then what are you hesitating about?" People in my hometown couldn't help but ask strangely: "Such a good comrade...... You, you still don't think she's worthy of you? The warriors are envious of you! You're not happy yet? ”
He said and invited me to the shoulder and said, "Listen to me, yes!" If there is any problem, let's open up and say it, if there is anything embarrassing to mention, let me tell you, and I will be a matchmaker for you! Who made you my battalion commander......"
Listening to the words of the people in my hometown, I couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that this thing really can't be good. But to be honest, Liu Yun's conditions are really good, she is beautiful and virtuous, and her family background is good, if you can marry her as a wife, it would be really good......
Hi! What am I thinking? When I thought that Liu Yun's father was Liu Shunyi, I couldn't accept it.
In a trance, we followed our hometown back to the station, and the soldiers who stayed behind naturally cheered again when they saw that we had returned safely.
Battalion Commander Zhang's troops did not leave, they were stationed near us, according to their words, even if we were in their 43rd Army, they would have to be responsible for our safety, otherwise they would have to disobey the orders of their superiors. This was originally the territory of the 43rd Army, and of course I had no reason to drive them away, so I had to follow them.
Originally, I was going to talk to Liu Yun, but the fatigue of continuous combat made me not want to move at all, and as soon as I lay on the 'bed', I fell asleep groggy......
Whatever, tomorrow's business will be talked about tomorrow! We soldiers really don't need to think so far.
