Chapter 145: The Canyon

Chapter 145: The Canyon

After resting for ten minutes, eating some dry food and drinking some water, we set out on the march again. Although the soldiers were very tired, the thought that they would be able to reach Tongdeng and join our army in a few hours, cheered up and encouraged each other to go north.

The mountain road gradually became narrow and steep, and after a while, there was no road, and we walked into the old forest of Moriyama again. According to the guide, at this time we have left the golden road, and from now on we have to 'grope' in the forest in the direction of the great rage.

In some ways, I think this is a good thing, at least in this forest, the Vietnamese army is not able to grasp the route of our army very smoothly and lay an ambush on our way forward. But on the other hand, the steep mountain road and the dense forests of the mountains undoubtedly made the soldiers even worse.

"Liu Yun! Evangel ...... "I bent down to tie my loose shoelaces, and as soon as I raised my head, I saw two familiar figures in front of me, who else would there be if it wasn't Liu Yun and Irchen."

"Camp Commander Cui!" When Liu Yun saw me, his originally tired face was like a stimulant injection, and he suddenly came to his 'spirit', and after a few steps, he turned back and asked, "Camp Commander Cui, I just wanted to find you!" Your injuries are all right! ”

"It's all right!" I replied, and to prove that the injuries were not serious, I deliberately waved my lower arm.

Most of my injuries were scarred by this time, except for the wound on my left shoulder, which was not a big problem.

"No! Let me check it out! But even so, Liu Yun still refused to give up.

"I said you better save it!" Yi Chen, who was beside him, said sarcastically: "If there is any problem with Camp Commander Cui's injury, he can put down the second battalion commander at once yesterday?" What have you become of yourself, still taking care of others? “

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, and asked, "You can still stand it, right?" ”

"I'm okay!" Yi Chen glanced at Liu Yun and said, "It's Liu Yun, she fell on the road!" ”

"It's okay! It's okay! Liu Yun glared at Yichen fiercely and said, "It's just a little bit of skin, I've already bandaged it!" ”

"It's okay!" I nodded. I believe that Liu Yun is really fine, and for me now, there is basically no need to worry about the fact that I can still walk.

Then I said to Liu and Lin with some apologies: "Actually, I should have sent you away earlier, but I didn't expect to ...... now."

"How can I blame you for this?" Liu Yun retorted: "You didn't expect things to develop like this, did you?" Besides, the fighters of the 608th Regiment are thanking us! They said...... If it weren't for us and Camp Commander Cui, they would have been surrounded by the Yue devils and would never be able to go back! ”

I couldn't help but smile bitterly and was speechless, the second half of what Liu Yun said may be right, but the first half of the sentence ...... I knew it was going to turn out like this. In fact, I also thought about sending Liu and Lin away first, but if I did this, I would feel even more guilty about the soldiers.

Although I know very well that if I do this, the soldiers will not have any objections, after all, Liu Yun and Yichen are 'female' soldiers, and no matter what kind of 'door' I open to the 'female' soldiers on this battlefield, no one will object or be unwilling, but I can't pass my own level.

"Camp Commander Cui!" Then Liu Yun looked around again and asked with some concern, "You say...... Will we be able to get out of this forest? ”

"Don't worry!" I pretended to smile relaxedly: "It's going to be fine, the more devils are behind us!" They can't catch up with us! ”

"Of course it's going to be fine!" I heard Yi Chen whispering in Liu Yun's ear: "Your sweetheart is so capable of fighting, it's a big deal to let him take you all the way out!" ”

"You ......" Liu Yun's cheeks turned red like apples when Yi Chen said this, and he only saw Yi Chen eating and laughing.

I couldn't help but sigh to myself, if this is really the case, how can I have so much ability alone!

"Battalion Commander Cui......" At this time, Al Ziri's voice came from the walkie-talkie: "I don't know how to walk the road ahead!" ”

"I'll be right here!" With that, I nodded to Liu Yun and Yichen, and hurried towards the front of the team.

When I arrived at the head of the team a few minutes later, I saw Deputy Division Commander Liang and Regiment Commander Wu also there, and the two of them were looking ahead with binoculars, and from time to time they were frowning and talking to each other.

"Camp Commander Cui!" Dressed in camouflage and carrying a sniper rifle, Alziri was the first to spot me, and everyone turned their eyes to me.

"What's the situation?" I asked hurriedly.

"Look......" Deputy Division Commander Liang didn't say anything, but just raised his head in the direction we were heading.

I raised my binoculars and looked in the direction pointed by Deputy Division Commander Liang, and soon understood that what appeared in front of me was a narrow canyon, with very steep cliffs on both sides...... In other words, there is no road ahead of us, and if we insist on walking this canyon, we may be getting farther and farther away from our motherland.

"Are we on the wrong track?" I asked the guide beside me.

"Nope!" The guide shook his head, and then explained: "Actually, there is no road at all in this old forest in the forest, where can you take the wrong road...... This is sometimes the case in this part of Vietnam, because these unclimbable cliffs stand in the way, so you have to make a big circle......"

Commander Wu said with some concern: "Let's not talk about whether the Vietnamese army had an ambush in this canyon, if we go like this, we will definitely spend a lot of time on the road, and we are likely to be caught up by the Yue devils!" ”

"Is there any other way?" I asked the guide.

"No one can say!" The guide said in embarrassment.

In fact, I also know that this will be the answer, people who have never seen the Vietnamese jungle may not understand, but those who have seen it will know - there are many mountains here that are no way to go, even if you forcibly climb it, it may take a few days to climb a mountain, and then we are afraid that we will only be surrounded by the Vietnamese army on the mountain to be savages.

"Then there is no other choice!" I gritted my teeth and said, "Crossing the canyon, in order to ensure the smooth passage of the troops, my fifth company and the members of the 'shooting' attack team walked in front!" ”

"How does this work?" Deputy Division Commander Liang hurriedly objected: "This is originally a difficulty for our troops, and now it has affected you, how can we still let you go ahead!" ”

"That's it!" Regiment Commander Wu also rushed up and said, "I'll arrange the troops immediately, I won't let you go to the ......."

"Captain Wu!" I stopped Wu Songhe and said, "This is the battlefield, I'm not polite to you!" Now there may be Vietnamese troops guarding the canyon, and they don't know where we want to pass from, so we can only use the most 'elite' troops to rush over with lightning speed to ensure that other troops can pass smoothly, otherwise this is a dead end! ”

Commander Wu and Deputy Division Commander Liang glanced at each other, then nodded and agreed. Deputy Division Commander Liang only patted me on the shoulder and said, "We owe you so much!" ”

It should be said that Deputy Division Commander Liang is really polite, not to mention that we were originally comrades-in-arms, and we were already people sitting in the same boat at this time, so in fact, there is no question of who owes whom. However, this also shows that Deputy Division Commander Liang is more emotional.

Dozens of soldiers of the Fifth Company and five members of the 'shooting' team soon set out, and in order to achieve the effect of 'confusing' and 'confusing' the Vietnamese troops, we also made some camouflage before going down the mountain. Of course, at this time, there was no place to find the military uniforms and helmets of the Vietnamese army, so we could only take off the red collar badge on our military uniforms, paint the red five stars on the military hat, and then deliberately put a big straw hat on the military hat, and we really couldn't see whether it was the Vietnamese army or the People's Liberation Army from a distance.

I didn't send all the members of the 'shooting' team, first, because I wanted to preserve some strength for the main force. The second is because it is not necessary, five snipers in the canyon that is only ten meters wide is actually enough, and no amount of more will make a difference. A soldier as valuable as a sniper, not to mention the rest, even the SVD sniper rifle in their hand is a rarity, and it is not worth it if they are all sacrificed in the event of an attack.

So the group lined up and swaggered towards the canyon with guns, perhaps because most of the sunlight was blocked, the canyon was very 'dark' and 'damp', and the mist rising from the ground reduced the visibility even more. However, the worse the visibility, the more likely we were to 'muddy' the water and 'touch' the fish, so I waved at the warriors behind me and emboldened myself to continue walking deeper into the canyon.

A group of people walking in the canyon is like entering a fairyland, on both sides are like sharp cliffs, from time to time there are a few birds and insects next to them to show a strong breath of nature, which is very inconsistent with the various weapons in our hands.

Our group cautiously advanced a few hundred meters through the canyon without anyone coming to stop us, and we didn't find any footprints, cans, or other evidence that anyone had visited. So the soldiers and I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief - looking at this, the Vietnamese army should not have come to defend this canyon in a hurry, or they did not know that we would take this road......

For these two, I would prefer to go forward, because last night we marched all night with flashlights, and it should not be difficult for the Vietnamese army who are familiar with the terrain to guess that we are going to pass through this canyon.

After a few dozen meters of further walking, the light gradually brightened, and I knew that I was almost at the mouth of the valley. Suddenly, there was a noise of footsteps and loud shouts in Vietnamese.

I couldn't help but secretly scream badly, knowing that the Vietnamese army's blocking troops also happened to arrive here at the same time......
