Chapter 128: Banks
The plan was set, and a group of more than fifty people walked out of the alley in a neat formation.
Translators Wu Zuohui and Li Shui, who were familiar with the terrain, walked in front to reconnoitre, and the rest of the soldiers followed me and Hu Shaowen behind.
There is a saying called thief's weak heart, which means that people who have done bad things will naturally have a kind of uneasiness in their hearts. On the other hand, if the thief is right, others will think that he is not like a thief. Our situation is almost like this now, the soldiers are all walking forward with their heads held high, and some of them are very casual with a few cigarettes in their mouths...... Therefore, the Vietnamese soldiers who passed by us did not suspect our identity at all, and some of them greeted us warmly in Vietnamese......
"Xingchao, Xingchao (Vietnamese: Hello!) ）”
From time to time, the intercom heard the sound of Li Shui's 'wave' report, and at this time, we had agreed with Li Shui's 'wave' that if we didn't find it, we would answer "Xingchao", and if we found something, we would answer "Q" (Vietnamese: very good).
This is to tell me that they have never found the artillery positions of the Vietnamese army.
However, this is also normal, the artillery of the Vietnamese army has always let us press and fight, so their artillery positions have never had a fixed location, and they usually withdraw immediately after a few minutes of fighting. In addition, in the First World War of the Municipal Army, the artillery and tanks of the Vietnamese army have basically been wiped out by our army, so it is not easy to find the artillery positions of the Vietnamese army.
However, what worries me a little is that our unit has already made two circles around the streets, and if we make a few more turns, I am afraid that the Vietnamese troops deployed along the streets will be suspicious of us. And now the time is also very short, if you can't find the artillery position of the Vietnamese army, I'm afraid it's too late......
"Ruler, ruler...... (Vietnamese: Comrade!) At this time, a Vietnamese officer with a team of Vietnamese soldiers shouted at me twice and walked forward, at first I didn't react, until Hu Shaowen secretly touched me twice, I realized that he was talking to me.
I couldn't help but "rub" in my heart for a moment, and the soldiers were also stunned.
I don't speak Vietnamese, which means that we will soon be exposed to the Vietnamese army. All of a sudden, the soldiers became nervous, and I could even hear the sound of Li Zhifu pulling the pistol behind me.
"Tong Qi ......" Fortunately, a translator behind him was clever, and he took a step to meet him and held the other party's hand and 'handed' to talk, thinking that the officer was only asking for directions, as long as someone told him, it would be fine, so he didn't bother to follow the interpreter for a while, and then greeted us gratefully and hurried in the direction pointed by the interpreter.
It wasn't until the Vietnamese army disappeared from our sight that the soldiers breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, I suddenly felt that there was something worth paying attention to, frowned and thought about it, and suddenly remembered that the Vietnamese army that had just left seemed to have several soldiers wearing gas masks......
Right! It's gas masks, and what are they doing with them at this time? What are they doing in such a hurry to one place?
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but take a few steps back to the interpreter's side, and asked in a low voice, "What did they just ask?" ”
I couldn't help but be startled when I said this, hurriedly raised my eyes and looked around, and then replied in a low voice: "They are asking for directions, the 308th Division is the capital defense division, and it has always been in Hanoi, a hundred miles away, and rarely comes to Lang Son, so I am not familiar with the terrain here......"
"Where are they going?" I interrupted the translator, and at this point, the shorter the better.
"Bank!" The translator replied.
"Banks?" At this time, I couldn't help but wonder - what are you doing at the bank? Withdraw money? Even if there is still money or gold nuggets in the bank, the more devils are surrounded by us, so even if they take it, it seems useless. And it doesn't seem that you need to wear a gas mask to withdraw money, so the most plausible explanation should be...... Gas bombs in the bank.
It should be said that the bank is indeed a good place to store gas bombs, because it is usually a place to store money and store expensive items, whether it is monitoring equipment or security facilities are better than other facilities, which is very much in line with the storage of gas bombs, a lethal "sex" weapon that violates the Convention and international law, how could I not think of it?
However, this does not seem to be a necessarily, but it is a kind of adventure and luck for us to 'sneak' in this time, and instead of 'wandering' around the streets like headless flies, it is better to follow the bank to see what is going on.
Thinking of this, I immediately whispered into the walkie-talkie and ordered: "Target bank!" ”
"Yes!" Li Shui'bo', who was walking in front, did not hesitate, and immediately changed direction with Wu Zuohui.
The group walked around the streets and alleys, and I was confused in the second half of the year, only to know that I followed Li Shui 'Bo' and Wu Zuohui in front of me all the way, and soon came to the vicinity of the destination. With my orders, the soldiers scattered in the alley and disappeared into the houses. And I took Li Zhifu, Li Shui'bo' and Wu Zuohui and a few people to quietly approach the bank under the cover of the night and the private house.
Wu Zuohui seemed to be very familiar with the terrain of this area, and took a few of us to walk in the alley for a while, and then took advantage of the explosion of a cannonball to hit the lock of a private house with the butt of a gun, and then opened the 'door' and went inside.
A musty smell came from the room, and the owner of the room seemed to have not lived in it for a while. I think this must be due to the tensions between China and Vietnam on the border. Under the shadow of war, as long as there are conditions or relatives who can defect, they will choose to go away.
This is also convenient for us, and we can safely and boldly turn on the flashlight here and climb up the stairs to the second floor. After carefully dimming the flashlight, I found a window and took out my binoculars and peeked out quietly from the edge of the curtain......
As early as when our army attacked the northern district of Lang Son, the Lang Son power plant was bombed, so at night the whole Lang Son was dark, but there were several lights on the bank, and there were two searchlights swaying on the streets on both sides of the bank. The streets were also blocked by trenches made of barbed wire and sandbags, each manned by a dozen Vietnamese soldiers......
I think the fact that the bank uses a backup power supply and is so well defended in the Vietnamese army's own defense zone is enough to say that.
"Battalion commander! I really have your ......" Seeing this, Li Zhifu couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "How did you think that the Yue devil would hide the poison gas bomb here?" ”
"Looks like the gas bomb is here!" After reading it, Li Shui 'Bo' also agreed: "Even if you are the commander of the 308th Division, I don't think there is any need to use such a large formation to defend!" ”
"It's just ......" Wu Zuohui retracted his head and said with some embarrassment: "I know a little bit about this bank, in addition to the big 'gate', there is only one heavy iron 'gate', and the walls are also very thick, how can we only have more than fifty people to capture it?" ”
This is indeed a problem, according to what Wu Zuohui said, then our breakthrough is only a big 'door'. However, this bank is a four-story building, not to mention how many Vietnamese troops are guarding it, even if there is only one platoon, they can completely use machine guns to seal the big 'gate' that is only seven or eight meters wide. Originally, we thought that the Executive Committee Building would be difficult to occupy, but now after seeing the defense of this bank, we realized that the Executive Committee Building is just a small thing.
"Battalion commander!" Li Zhifu leaned up and asked, "Do you want to contact your superiors?" ”
I shook my head and said, "With such a secret thing as a poison gas bomb, it is very likely that the Vietnamese army will track the radio signal, and it is very likely that contacting the superior at this time will startle the snake!" ”
"Then send a messenger out to contact the troops outside!" Li Shui 'Bo' suggested.
I still shook my head: "Let's not talk about whether our soldiers can go out, even if they do, it is easy for our soldiers to mistake them for Vietnamese soldiers and be injured by mistake, not to mention that we may not have so much ......time at all."
"Don't have that much time?" Li Shui 'Bo' couldn't help but look at me a little strangely.
I replied with a wry smile: "What do you think they are here to do with the Yue devils who asked us for directions just now?" ”
"What the battalion commander means...... Are they here to carry gas bombs? The crowd looked at me in amazement.
"So what are you waiting for!" Li Zhifu was a little panicked when he heard this, pulled out the pistol on his waist and said, "Battalion commander! The enemy has already begun to carry gas bombs, so what else is there to consider? Let's fight! ”
"What are you anxious about?" I said angrily: "We only have about 50 people in total, how long can we hold out in this fight?" It doesn't matter if we all sacrificed, didn't this devil hit our troops with poison gas bombs the same way? ”
As soon as I said this, Li Zhifu lost his voice.
"Wu Zuohui!" I knew that time was pressing, so I didn't tell them, but took out the map of Lang Son City given by Staff Officer Li in my pocket, illuminated it with a flashlight, and asked, "Where are we now?" ”
"Here!" Wu Zuohui pointed to a location on the map.
"Where is the more devil asking for directions?"
"Here!" Wu Zuohui searched for a while on the map, and then pointed to a location in the northeast.
"Hmm!" I nodded and said, "If my guess is correct, it is very likely that the Vietnamese artillery unit was ordered to carry the poison gas bombs!" That is to say...... It is very likely that the artillery positions of the Vietnamese army are in the northeast, and they have only two ways to go after getting the gas bombs......"
I pointed to the two streets on the map, one large and one small, and said, "There are not many of them, but there are only about two dozen of them. We divided into two teams to lay in ambush on two streets, and the members of the 'shooting' team occupied the high ground for cover, and did not shoot until absolutely necessary. Ask for a silent elimination of them, and then quickly hide the corpses and gas bombs in the houses on both sides, is the task clear? ”
"Clear!" Several people whispered at the same time.
I then ordered: "Company Commander Li led 25 people to 'shoot' another five members of the attack team to ambush on the street, and the rest of the people followed me to ambush in the side street, and act immediately!" ”
"Yes!" The crowd answered, turned around and walked down the stairs in a hurry.
"Li Shui 'wave'!" I called Li Shui' Bo back, handed him the telescope, and said, "You can stay here and observe, and tell us the movements of the Vietnamese army at any time!" ”
"Yes!"
I patted Li Shui' Bo' on the shoulder and said, "Be careful alone!" ”
"I will!" Li Shui 'wave' answered, and then saluted me with a military salute in a dignified manner.
He took the others down from the upper floor, 'delivered' to the soldiers as quickly as possible, and then separated from Li Zhifu and Li Zhifu with a team.
The reason why Li Zhifu was ambushed on the street was because I thought the Vietnamese army would go to the side street. As I said before, being a thief is an instinctive reaction, and if the Vietnamese soldiers knew that they were carrying poison gas bombs on their shoulders, they would have preferred to walk the small streets with less foot traffic. But in the end, whether it is like what I think is up to the Vietnamese army themselves.
Under the guidance of Wu Zuohui, we came to our destination in the alley. The first thing I did was to arrange two people at both ends of the street to let the wind out, I didn't want the Vietnamese devils passing by here to see that we soldiers were not fighting on the front line and smashed the locks here......
I don't need to worry about the rest of the matter, the soldiers have long had a tacit understanding with each other since the war was fought, so they smashed the locks of the 'doors' on both sides of the street and hid into the houses, while the members of the 'shooting' team carried sniper rifles to the commanding heights with open sight. Their task is to observe the movements of the surrounding enemies and report to us at any time, in case our operation fails, for example, let one or two of the Yue devils escape, then they can only risk shooting.
It is said that on this battlefield where the sound of guns and artillery is heard around it, it seems that it is normal to have one or two gunshots.
"Report!" At this time, Li Shui's 'wave' voice came from the walkie-talkie: "The Yue devil has come out, twenty people, but there are only ten boxes of ammunition 'medicine'." Repeated, twenty people, only ten boxes of ammunition 'medicine'. It's coming in your direction! ”
I understand why Li Shui' 'Bo' focused on saying that "20 people only have 10 boxes of ammunition 'medicine'", which is to tell me that the method I just mentioned to help lift the ammunition 'medicine' will not work! Two people carry a box of ammunition 'medicine' and still need us to help?
So I thought, maybe this is because the Vietnamese army wants to test how much impact this gas bomb can cause, or maybe it is to use its power to deter our army first, so only ten boxes are moved.
This is a bit troublesome, half of them do not carry ammunition 'medicine', which means that their vigilance 'nature' will be greatly improved, and if they are not careful, it will evolve into a pattern of 'melee', and even if we can get rid of them all, we will attract other Vietnamese troops around.
Then I asked into the walkie-talkie: "Does the devil use walking or running?" ”
"Trot!" Li Shui 'Bo' replied: "They seem to be in a hurry, but they can't run fast because they are carrying a box of ammunition 'medicine'!" ”
"Keep watching!" When I replied, I had an idea, and immediately called all the warriors out of the houses and led them to the corner of the street.
"Everyone, listen!" I lowered my voice and ordered them, "There are twenty enemies in all, and we have twenty-five in total, except for the members of the 'shooting' team...... Wait for me to listen to my orders to do it, depending on the situation, one or two people to solve an enemy, is the task clear? ”
"Clear!" The warriors whispered, each preparing his own stab.
Then I divided the fighters into two teams, one on the left and one on the right, and separated them in the side streets.
At this time, Al Ziri's nervous voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Report to the battalion commander, the target has appeared, they are coming towards our street!" Repeat, the goal is coming towards our street! ”
"Report the distance to the target!" I ordered.
"Yes!" Alziri answered, and reported: "Two hundred meters, one hundred and fifty meters, fifty meters, ......."
When Alzi reported fifty meters on duty, as soon as my soldiers waved their hands, the soldiers would deliberately turn on a few flashlights and walk forward, as if they happened to pass by.
We had to get our timing and speed right, because I had to let the Vietnamese army catch up with us in this small street a few hundred meters long......
People have this mentality, if it's a group of people coming up from in front of them, they will be more attentive and vigilant, but if there is a group of people who are facing away from them and going in the same direction, they will let down their guard, and that's what I hope for.
But after a while, the footsteps of the Vietnamese army appeared behind us, and as I expected, they just shone at us with a flashlight, and then hurriedly trotted up, and the Vietnamese soldier led by us was very arrogant and shouted at us: "Get out of the way, get out of the way!" ”
We moved out of the way a little, just enough distance for the Vietnamese army to pass between us, but not to let us go too far away from the Vietnamese army, and the soldiers even consciously and tacitly distanced themselves according to the length of the Vietnamese army...... All of this is convenient for us to do, but those Vietnamese soldiers did not notice this, and still rushed towards us in a hurry......
The Vietnamese army was completely 'inserted' from the middle of our ranks as I expected, and the soldiers all pressed their hands on the military thorns, and although their feet were still walking, their eyes were all focused on their goals, consciously or unconsciously.
But I didn't give the order, I was waiting for the best moment, waiting for the moment when my team could take full control of the Vietnamese army......
At this time, the Vietnamese officer who was at the head of the group suddenly snorted, and his eyes were fixed on one of the interpreters in our ranks. I secretly screamed that it was not good, and the Vietnamese officer had talked to the interpreter, and he must have recognized him.
So I yelled, "Do it!" Then he stabbed the officer not far behind him!
