Chapter 84 Revision of the Plan
The fighters quickly gathered their equipment and assembled outside the 'gate', and two cars were already parked in the clearing. We didn't say much, but divided into two teams and climbed up one by one.
There were a few lights lit up in the barracks next door, and it must have been the movement outside that woke them, but no one dared to stick their heads out to take a look, and no one dared to ask out loud. Because it is obvious that there must be some secret mission at this time, and it is very important to be a soldier is not to talk too much and not to ask too much, otherwise, it will be those inquisitive soldiers who will suffer. The fighters of the 180 Division are not recruit eggs, and of course they are well aware of this.
So, when we left, we didn't have time to say hello to the soldiers.
Master Pang didn't speak, shook hands with us soldiers one by one, and helped the soldiers sort out their equipment or pat their shoulders and nodded from time to time.
When it came to me, he only smiled lightly and said, "I believe that you can complete this task, and the safety of the boss will be 'handed over' to you, and everyone will look at you."
I nodded, although Master Pang's words were a little inconsistent, I still understood what he meant. The safety of the boss in the previous sentence is out of personal feelings and respect for superiors. The latter sentence is that the situation on the entire Korean battlefield may change as a result. It was then that I realized how heavy the burden was on my shoulders
It was only ten minutes before and after the "......" when the car kicked up a cloud of dust and sped away.
Sitting in the back compartment, I didn't know where the car was going or what direction it was going...... This is entirely because I am road blind, and the reason why I am road blind is that I have a poor sense of direction, so I don't know what I am going to when the car turns two corners. All we could see was the light of the fire in the camp, which seemed to be waving goodbye to us. It's just that I don't know if I'll ever come back alive this time.
It's okay to fight, and you can survive on your own. But to be a bodyguard to protect people...... It is often the case that the more capable people die, the faster they die, because we want to protect people, that is, we have to use our bodies to block bullets for others, so the faster the person reacts, the greater the chance that the bullet can be blocked
"Commander, is there a mission?" The soldiers were silent for a long time before Hu Zudi hesitated to ask.
"Hmm" I replied, but didn't go on, thinking about whether I could tell the soldiers about the mission now.
"Didn't they all say that the enemy agreed to sign?" Yang Zhenshan muttered, "Why do you still want to fight?" ”
"Less and more mouths" Hu Zudi scolded: "If you have a task, you will resolutely complete it, what kind of 'complaining'?" ”
"Yes" Yang Zhenshan answered, and never spoke again.
"That's right" Seeing the reaction of the fighters, I really didn't want to hide it from them anymore. And now it's time to go on a mission, so that they know who they want to protect, and it can also let them know the importance of the mission.
So he hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go this time...... It's to protect the boss."
"Protect the boss?"
"Protect the boss? Is the boss in danger? ”
"**The eighteenth generation of the little devil's main sect, they dare to move the boss"
……
As soon as I said this, it caused a lot of 'waves' among the soldiers, and even Lin Xue and Jin Qiulian, who had always pretended to ignore me, looked at me with wide eyes, unable to believe that what I said was true.
Originally, there were still some soldiers who were a little reluctant to go to the battlefield again, but now they were all filled with righteous indignation and never complained again. That's right, to protect the boss, there are no conditions to talk about, it is a supreme honor for the soldiers
"Commander, what's going on? How can the boss be in danger? Hu Zudi was calmer, and then asked.
"It's time to sign an armistice negotiation, isn't it?" I replied in a whisper: "The boss is going to Kaesong to sign, and according to the information obtained by the superiors, it is very likely that the Syngman Rhee group will not be willing to defeat and send a special team to assassinate the boss."
With a sound of "......", the carriage suddenly 'chaotic'. The soldiers all scolded the treacherous Syngman Rhee, and all the foul language and cruel words broke out. The warriors all came from all over the world, and the scolding was different and had their own faction, and the 'mixing' of these dialects was also very good.
"Are the fighters confident in their mission?" I asked.
"Yes," the fighters replied firmly.
I looked at the soldiers and said heavily: "Comrades must be clear about one thing, protecting the boss is not the same as fighting. To fight a war is to preserve oneself and eliminate the enemy. And to protect the boss is to eliminate all possible threats to the boss. When necessary, we have to use our bodies to block bullets for the boss, can you do that? ”
"It can be done," the fighters replied without thinking.
The soldiers and the reaction were as early as I expected, the boss almost had a bit of a "sacred" taste in the hearts of the volunteer soldiers, not to mention blocking bullets for the boss, even if he blocked the shells, he didn't frown.
This is not? Yang Zhenshan, who was still in a mood just now, was snickering at this time: "Ho, I can see the boss, and I can still be the boss's guard...... There is still a chance to block bullets for him, a blessing that has been cultivated for several lifetimes."
Hearing that this mission was to protect the boss, the soldiers' enthusiasm was quickly mobilized, and they were all busy checking their equipment in the car. Some were checking their rifles, some were checking their night vision devices, and some were pulling out fried noodles to fill their stomachs...... All of them were ready to meet the upcoming challenge, and Lin Xue and Jin Qiulian were no exception. But what puzzles me a little is that occasionally when I meet Jin Qiulian's gaze, between the electric light and flint that makes eye contact with her, I feel that Jin Qiulian has something on her mind. It seems to be apologetic, and it seems to be guilty...... But before I could read the meaning of her eyes, she hurriedly avoided my gaze.
What is it? Did she believe me? Probably not, that's ridiculous, and I wouldn't believe it if it were me. Alas, the heart of a 'woman' is so difficult to fathom
In stark contrast to the 'agitation' and excitement of the fighters, I did not rush to prepare for battle, but leaned on the carriage and closed my eyes to recuperate. Because I know very well that there is no room for a mistake in this mission, and even a small negligence can lead to a total loss.
Of course, my mental health was not good enough to sleep in this situation. In this sense, I am not a qualified sniper either. Because it is said that a qualified sniper must be able to collapse in front of Mount Tai without changing his face...... I believe that if it was really Mount Tai who collapsed in front of him, the soldiers would be able to keep their faces 'colored', and even let Mount Tai be buried without moving. But it's not the same to go to the boss to carry out the task
I don't know how long it took for the car to finally stop. It was a wood, a wooded land with nothing, so much so that we couldn't help but be stunned when we jumped out of the car: Is this the boss's headquarters?
The few motorists who came with us didn't say anything, and took it upon themselves to wrap the car in its entirety with branches. Their movements are very fast, and their camouflage is very similar, and I believe that even if you stand more than ten meters away during the day and look at their camouflage, you still can't see through it.
"Hello Captain Cui"
"Hello"
From the passenger seat of the car jumped a volunteer soldier, wearing a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, looking a little polite. Maybe it's a chief of staff or something, I guessed so. But I soon found out I was wrong.
"I am the commander of the guard battalion of the General Headquarters" The bespectacled volunteer soldier held my hand and introduced himself: "My surname is Zhao, and I am here to answer you and instruct you on the next step"
"Hmm" I couldn't help but glance at him in surprise, and sure enough, I saw a trace of the ruthlessness and murderous aura unique to a killer in his eyes. I was almost deceived by his outside just now, who can enter the headquarters guard battalion and become a company commander, which one is not the same as killing people and eating vegetables. And holding his hand, I can faintly feel a trace of strength, and I think he is not an ordinary person.
So I couldn't help frowning, and a trace of doubt 'confusion' arose in my heart: a random company commander in the guard battalion of the General Headquarters was a master, which means that the boss felt that there was a lack of people like Company Commander Zhao. And they're also professional guards, so they know what is best to respond to in a particular situation, so what do we do......
"Hehe......" Zhao Lian's small eyes behind his long glasses flashed, as if he could see through my thoughts, and said: "You must be thinking in your heart, even the task of protecting the boss is for you to complete, so what do you want our guard battalion to do......"
"No, no...... I didn't mean that," I replied hurriedly.
"Just kidding" Company Commander Zhao snorted, warmly invited my shoulder and said, "Come on, let's go into the house."
Entering the house? I couldn't help but be stunned, and when I looked around, I really didn't see any room, not even a single protrusion
But following Company Commander Zhao a few steps forward, two soldiers rushed ahead of us and lifted the grass on the ground...... Good fellow, a dozen steps appeared in front of me. That's when it dawned on me that it was a basement, just like our tunnel. With Company Commander Zhao and their disguise like this, even if there is an army hiding here, no one will find out.
After going down the stairs and turning a corner, several basements of tens of square meters appeared in front of the fighters. There is a radio room, a war room, a map, a sand table, etc., just like an underground command post.
After placing the soldiers in a hut next to them to rest, Company Commander Zhao handed me a cup of tea and said, "This is the case, after we have carefully studied it, we all agree that it is more appropriate for the boss to travel at night." The reason is that in order to strengthen the puppet army as much as possible, the US military trained a group of pilots for the puppet army from the very beginning of the Korean War, and they were put into actual combat a few months ago. We believe that the possibility of US planes bombing the boss's convoy is not very 'sexual', but it is a puppet military plane...... I can't tell."
"Oh," I understood a little when I heard that. This concern is indeed necessary, compared to the American fighter jets of high-speed aircraft in the air, cars and jeeps are as defenseless as some toys, no matter how skilled and good the guards are. If this is the case, the situation is really like what Commander Zhao said, it is too dangerous to travel during the day.
"So...... What you need is our equipment - night vision devices," I replied.
This reason is obvious, if the convoy travels at night, then the possibility of being ambushed by the enemy will increase exponentially, and night vision devices are a sharp weapon for night combat.
"Yes or no" Company Commander Zhao shook his head with a smile, and said with some shame: "Although we are the guards next to the boss, we boast that we can fight any gun and use any equipment, but this night vision device and walkie-talkie ......"
Now I fully understand, it turns out that Company Commander Zhao and the others have also encountered the same embarrassment as ours in the past few days, that is, they are not familiar with the equipment. But this can't be blamed on them, this night vision device is the first thing developed by the US military, and there are only a dozen of us in the volunteer army, and they have always been in the hands of our cold gun troops, and the people in their guard battalion have no chance to be familiar with this kind of equipment at all. Although it is not difficult to use this walkie-talkie, the difficulty is that they have not been trained to listen to the commands in the walkie-talkie at all.
The Cold Gun Unit is the only unit that has extensive combat experience with night vision devices and has also been using walkie-talkies for combat. So, naturally, they found us.
"Tell me what do you want us to do," I asked bluntly.
"The time of action is tomorrow night," Company Commander Zhao replied, "The specific time is to be determined, because the time for the boss to arrive here from Yugu is uncertain." The convoy consisted of three jeeps and two cars, which was too much to arouse the suspicion of the enemy. After the boss arrives, we will send two more identical convoys from here, and march towards Kaesong in three different ways, the boss is in the convoy where you are, and I will bring a few people to protect the boss closely."
"Hmm," I nodded. The plan that Company Commander Zhao said was very thorough, and three identical convoys suddenly drove out from here, and I think even if the puppet army agents kept following the boss's convoy all the time, they would panic at this time.
It's just that......
"There are too few jeeps," I said, "I think they should all be jeeps"
"All in jeeps?" Company Commander Zhao shook his head and said, "If this is the case, there will be nearly ten troops carrying you, and such a large convoy ......."
"Ten is ten, the more the better, the more the target," I replied: "Company Commander Zhao, if it is three jeeps and two cars, the puppet army will casually plant a hand-pulled mine in the middle of the road, and the jeep will have a one-third chance of blowing up the boss, and the car will knock out half of our combat effectiveness at once." So I think that all jeeps should be used, a dozen jeeps are just right, and we won't lose much if we blow up any of them."
Of course, there is one possibility that I did not say, and that is if it happens to hit the boss's car......
"Hmm" Hearing this, Company Commander Zhao couldn't help but be stunned, he obviously didn't take this issue into account.
"And I think ......," I continued, "North Korea has always had bad road conditions, jeeps have a good U-turn, and we have walkie-talkies. If all jeeps are used, the distance between the vehicles can be fully extended without worrying about the puppet army cutting off contact, and the possibility of the puppet army using dense mines to blow up many or even all of our army's vehicles at once can be avoided."
Of course, I also know that there is very little possibility that the puppet army can use dense mines on the road, but this is our territory, especially when the boss is about to go out, and the volunteer soldiers in all sections of the road must have strengthened patrols. Under the noses of the soldiers, it would be nice for the puppet army agents to plant one or two mines.
"Makes sense" Company Commander Zhao pondered for a while, pushed his glasses and said, "I'll immediately ask my superiors to see if it's necessary to revise the plan."
Taking advantage of the gap when Company Commander Zhao went to send a telegram, I paced to the rest room of the soldiers. The soldiers had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and when they saw me walk in, they all couldn't wait to greet me and whispered, "How is it?" Is the regimental commander going to act? ”
"Is it true? Really let us protect the boss? ”
……
"Hmm" I nodded and replied, "Tomorrow night's action"
With a coax, and with my affirmative answer, the warriors rejoiced again. This makes me feel a little ashamed, at least they can't be considered a proper sharpshooter with the way they look and this mentality
So I immediately straightened my face and angrily ordered the soldiers, "Eh...... Have you adjusted your mentality for me, and have you forgotten that you are a sharpshooter? Sharpshooter: Just your moral 'sex'? How to protect the boss in this way? I can tell you, when you see the boss tomorrow, don't be so happy that you forget that you are at war, we are at war, it doesn't matter if you lose your own 'life', if you lose your ......."
Speaking of this, I didn't dare to say any more, my finger tapped the soldiers a few times in the air, and then said: "If you can't complete the mission, no one will want to go back alive, I will be the first to collapse you."
"Yes" The soldiers responded very dryly, and realized that their current mentality was indeed not suitable for the battlefield, so they sat back on the bench one by one and calmed down in their own way
"If you can't complete the mission, no one will want to go back alive"
The soldiers may think I'm joking, but only I know that it's a half-truth. Because I know very well that if I can't complete the task, I will even have the heart to die at that time. Even if you don't die, you will live with guilt and self-blame for the rest of your life.
"Commander Cui" At this time, Company Commander Zhao walked in and said: "The superiors think your suggestion is very good, and unanimously agree to revise the plan"
"Hmm," I nodded.
I expected this result, and with so many obvious benefits, who would dare to disagree? Those who disagree are afraid that they will be censored as reactionaries on the spot......
What we have to do now is to adjust our psychology and wait for tomorrow
