Chapter 50 Body armor
Chapter 50 Body armor
The battle was soon over, and the battle was a foregone conclusion from the moment the puppet army agents attacked. All we have to do is to turn this foregone conclusion into reality.
It's easy to say, but it's not easy to do.
The difficulty did not come from sniping the enemy, for the fighters it was almost a live fire at night. The difficulty comes from the fact that we have to watch the enemy approach our comrades step by step, and then watch our comrades being killed by the enemy and doing nothing.
Therefore, after the battle, the soldiers and I did not go down the mountain to check our results, but invariably looked for the volunteer soldiers who died under the enemy's sneak attack on the hilltop position.
The first thing I saw was the sentry of our army, the bodies of the two little warriors lying lifeless in the snow, the blood had clotted into red and black blood clots, and they were still holding their rifles in their hands, as if they were ready to fight at any moment. They had just been rotated and might have just woken up, but unfortunately they were ...... before they were fully awake
I can almost imagine their sacrifice: two puppet agents stealthily reached up from behind them, then covered their mouths with one hand with lightning speed, and sent a cold thorn into their bodies with the other......
In a cave not far away, seven or eight volunteer soldiers were lying in a pool of blood, and I didn't dare to look inside with my night vision devices, because it was already a blur of flesh and blood. Most of them were killed by grenades thrown in by puppet agents and bullets fired into them before they could wake up from their sleep. In that small space, the warriors simply did not have time or space to hide.
The soldiers of the Cold Gun Unit didn't say much, silently burrowed into the bloody little cave, and carried out the corpses of the soldiers one by one. Then they were neatly laid out on the position, and some even picked out some limbs to put them together.
We are more than capable of saving them, we just need to give them a wake-up call, even a small sound, we can alert them and save their lives, but we don't do that.
So, we are the murderers who killed them indirectly!
Perhaps, we can interpret this as a task, as an order from a superior, or as thinking about the big picture. But this can be said to the superiors, to the living soldiers, but not to the sacrificed......
Because they can't hear, and we don't have that power!
The warriors silently lined up in front of the corpses, slowly took off their hats, and then silently gave them a military salute.
Then the other garrisons of the arsenal came running up from the foot of the hill, and they looked at us, and then at the bodies lying on the ground, and they walked past us coldly, and some of them even deliberately hit us a few times as they passed us, and then carried the corpses away one by one without saying a word.
They are soldiers of the 119th Division, and they have been responsible for the logistical security of the 4O Army since they entered the DPRK. Originally, I hoped to use my own troops as bait, but Commander Chu thought that doing so might arouse the suspicion of the puppet army agents, so he reported our plan to the military department and got the approval of the military department.
It's just that now, of course, the comrades of the 119th Division know that they are being used as bait by us. Not to mention that this incident itself will make them feel uncomfortable, they will not forgive us for the sake of these sacrificed comrades, and at the same time, we dare not ask for their forgiveness.
After a while, more than a dozen warriors came up from the foot of the mountain, saluted a middle-aged soldier, and then said coldly: "This is our position, please leave!" ”
"!" Huzi is in the same group as me, he has never experienced such a bird spirit since he has grown so big, and he immediately grabbed it and was about to get along with the fighter, but I stopped him.
I can understand their feelings, and if it were me, I might not be so polite.
So I nodded, and after returning a military salute, I led the soldiers down the mountain.
"Wait!" Unexpectedly, the middle-aged soldier stopped us again, pointed to the corpses of several puppet army agents on the top of the mountain, and said, "These trophies belong to you, you better bring them all back!" ”
"Comrade!" Huzi couldn't hold back his temper anymore, and he shouted at the middle-aged warrior not to be outdone: "It's not appropriate for you to do this!" We are also listening to the orders of our superiors, and we are also carrying out tasks, what are you burning at us? You and I are comrades in fraternal troops, as for this? ”
"We didn't fire at you!" The middle-aged soldier gritted his teeth and said almost word for word: "Our 119th Division has no ability, but we don't need to use other people's trophies to ask for credit." So, please carry these corpses away, and so will those at the foot of the mountain! ”
"Hey, you're still doing it......"
"Huzi!" Seeing that Huzi was about to rush forward to fight again, I called him back with an order.
I sighed and waved my hand, and soon several fighters from the Cold Gun Unit stepped forward to carry down the body. Huzi couldn't swallow it in one breath, so he ran up and carried a corpse down angrily.
"it!" When he walked to the foot of the mountain, Huzi was still angry, threw the corpse to the ground, and opened his mouth to scold: "I have never fought such a battle, and if I win a battle, I will be angry, and I will help the enemy collect the corpse!" ”
"Forget it!" I patted Huzi on the shoulder and said, "They have lost a lot of people, and they feel uncomfortable, so let's just endure it!" ”
"Captain Cui!" Huzi said unconvinced: "I can't figure it out, we are also carrying out orders, and we are also trying to fight the reactionaries, why do you think they look at us with those eyes?" It's still a brother unit! ”
"Don't say more, just complete the task!" Seeing that Huzi still seemed to refuse to give up, I couldn't help but increase my tone.
When Huzi saw me say this, he pursed his lips and didn't dare to say more.
Actually, I feel uncomfortable being treated like this, but it's nothing compared to the guilt of those sacrificed soldiers, so I don't care about it.
"Captain Cui!" After a while, Wang Yuehan and the others were also driven down the mountain, and like us, they were also carrying the corpses, with an unnatural expression on their faces.
"Comrades are glad to suffer!" I nodded at the fighters and asked, "What about the casualties?" ”
Wang Yuehan nodded the number of people and reported to me: "Report to the head of the regiment, there is no casualty!" ”
"Hmm!" I nodded in satisfaction.
Although the puppet army agents are elite troops, our cold gun troops are not masters. What's more, we also have night vision devices, and it is not difficult to achieve such a result with zero casualties when the puppet army agents are unprepared. Of course, this does not include the fighters of the 119 Division.
"Commander, where are we going now?" After counting the number of people, Wang Yuehan couldn't help asking.
Listening to this, I couldn't help but be stunned, and looked around, the comrades of the 119th Division obviously did not welcome us, and the soldiers in the tunnels, in the trenches, and in front of the arsenal all ignored us. It made us feel like a child that no one wanted, standing alone in the snow in the middle of the position, accompanied only by the corpses of puppet agents piled up like a hill.
"Go make a call!" I ordered Wang Yuehan: "Let Captain Chu send a car to pick us up!" ”
"Yes!" Wang Yuehan answered, turned around and walked in the direction of the arsenal.
But after a while, I saw him running back dejectedly, and said to me helplessly: "Those comrades said...... Said they didn't receive an order to let us use the phone! ”
"it!" Huzi slammed his hat to the ground and squatted on the ground in aggrieved terms.
I couldn't help gritting my teeth, I didn't let me call, it seems a bit too much, what if I delay the military situation!
Thinking about it, I couldn't help but puff up my chest and shouted to the soldiers: "All of them, put the corpses of the puppet army on your back, and run back to the camp!" ”
"Yes!" The soldiers answered loudly, carrying the corpses and running out of the position.
A corpse is more than 100 catties, and the equipment on the soldiers' bodies is almost 200 catties, so they can still run with such a heavy thing on their bodies, and only the soldiers of the cold gun unit can do it.
I think that by showing such a hand, at least the comrades of the 119th Division can understand the reason why the superiors will arrange for us to lurk on the battlefield to kill the enemy!
But after running for a while, I vaguely felt that something was wrong. Frowning, I stopped and watched the soldiers carry the corpses past me one by one, and I couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, suddenly remembering the eldest female agent I had killed with the last shot......
Why isn't there that female agent? None of the corpses on the shoulders of the fighters were long-headed!
"Stop!" Thinking of this, I couldn't help but shout at the soldiers, and then examined the corpses one by one.
No female agents! It's easy to see if it's long-headed, so it only took me a few minutes to come to this conclusion.
There's no reason for that! Seeing this, I had a puzzle in my heart. I know very well whether it hits or not, and this is a feeling for a sniper, just like the blue ball will feel after playing for a long time, and you know whether the ball will go in the moment you hit it. And...... The female agent's whole body was shocked, and it was definitely not fake!
So where did her body go? Did someone slip through the net snatch her body?
It's unlikely! Under the circumstances at that time, it was difficult for the puppet army agents to save their lives, how could they still snatch the corpse, and the volunteer soldiers were not blind, so the big target would not be visible.
What's going on here?
"What's wrong?" Seeing me bowing my head and contemplating, Wang Yuehan couldn't help but lean in and asked suspiciously.
"Did you miss the corpse of a puppet agent?" I asked.
Wang Yuehan turned his gaze to the few fighters at the end of the team.
"Nope!"
"Nope!"
The warriors shook their heads affirmatively.
"What's missing?" Wang Yuehan leaned over to me and asked softly.
I knew what Wang Yuehan meant, and I had a deeper understanding of Wang Yuehan's caution. Because if there's one puppet agent missing, it probably means he's watching us with a gun in the shadows.
"Hmm!" I made a little noise from my throat, but I didn't nod.
"Captain Cui!" At this time, Hu Zudi leaned up and whispered, "I have a situation report!" ”
"Say!" There was some impatience in my tone. At this time, I didn't want to hear anything, I just wanted to find out where the body of that puppet female agent had gone!
"That's right!" Hu Zudi may have sensed my reluctance, and couldn't help but point to the carbine in his hand with some hesitation and said, "I feel, I feel that this gun is not good!" I obviously hit the enemy just now, but the enemy is stunned and can still shoot! At first, I thought it was because our marksmanship was not good and I didn't hit, but ......"
"What?" Hearing this, I couldn't help but raise my head to look at Brother Hu, and asked in shock, "Are you sure you hit?" ”
"Hmm!" Hu Zudi nodded affirmatively.
In fact, I don't need to ask what I said just now, I also know Hu Zudi's marksmanship, he is a famous sharpshooter of the 77th Division, and I may not be able to compare with him in the shooting range compared to marksmanship.
So I turned my gaze to the corpses on the shoulders of the warriors, thought about it, and tore the corpse of a puppet army in front of me off the shoulders of the warriors. After careful observation for a while, sure enough, there were several bullet holes without blood.
Three or two times ripped off the corpse's clothes and looked at it, everything was understood, it turned out to be body armor. The female puppet agent didn't die, and I remember feeling pity for the moment I pulled the trigger, so that shot didn't hit her in the head, but in the heart......
"What's this?" Huzi was nearby, and he couldn't help but ask strangely as he watched as he took out a warhead from the corpse that did not penetrate the body armor.
"It's body armor!" I replied softly.
But I didn't expect that such a simple answer from me caused a sensation like dropping a bomb among the soldiers!
"Body armor? Did the enemy wear body armor? ”
"What is body armor?"
"It's bulletproof! Bullets can't be punched! ”
"Hey! Puppet agents still have this thing? So, why can we still beat me to death? ”
……
"Silence!" Hearing this, I hurriedly ordered softly: "The surviving agents of the puppet army may be watching us from the dark, so don't make a noise and keep moving!" ”
"Yes!" The warriors answered and stepped forward again.
As I followed in the footsteps of the soldiers, I secretly searched my mind for information about body armor.
Like night vision devices, body armor is also a new equipment that has just been revealed, and it is indeed a body armor made of nylon soft synthetic fiber materials used by the US military on the Korean battlefield. It is made up of 12 layers of special nylon fiber cloth, and when the projectile hits the body armor, multiple layers of nylon fibers criss-cross and wrap around the projectile like a net. If the projectile continues to move, the nylon fibers must be stretched. The tension of nylon fibers reduces the motion of the projectile, and consumes and absorbs the impact kinetic energy of the projectile.
Of course, like all new things, the bulletproof effect of body armor in this era is not good. Maybe it's better to praise it, because it can't resist the fire of any weapon in the hands of the volunteers, except for the bullets of pistols and carbines.
In modern times, veterans of the Volunteer Army described the body armor of the US military as follows: We now have body armor on the corpse of the US army, and if we want to see if it can be bulletproof, we take all kinds of guns and shoot at the corpses of US soldiers, and all of them can be penetrated, but their own carbine cannot penetrate it!
This could also explain why the body of the female puppet agent was missing. I did hit her, but she didn't die. After being shot, she pretended to be dead and lay on the ground, and after the volunteer soldiers rushed down, she escaped in the dark, after all, it was easy to hide in the snow. Now she may be hiding in a corner watching us, maybe she is not the only one. Because, in this darkness, the carbine with the night vision device is the dominant killing, and most of the enemies are killed by the carbine, which means that the situation of the female agent of the puppet army may be born in other puppet soldiers.
What's next for them?
Confrontation with our army?
Unlikely! Although the penetration of the carbine is not strong, and it is said that it cannot penetrate the padded jackets worn by the volunteer soldiers from a distance, of course, I will not be stupid enough to try it. But even so, these batches of body armor used on the battlefield are not a good thing, and it is not pleasant to be shot by a carbine. For example, the female agent of the pseudo-army, her whole body shook when she was hit by me, and it was definitely not something that could be pretended......
Therefore, most of them are injured, and they also know the strength of our army, and it is only a dead end to fight against us. Moreover, there is no point in doing so, the strategic goal of their operation is to blow up our arsenal, and now they know that this is a trap, which means that the arsenal will not be real, and their operation is doomed to failure from the beginning.
Not against us, then ...... All they have to do is run away!
Right! I couldn't help but feel good at this, they must be hiding in the shadows and waiting for us to retreat, so that they can escape.
Why didn't they run away while we were sorting out the bodies just now?
It quickly occurred to me that it was snowy, and if they did, the long trails of footprints left in the snow would reveal their whereabouts.
Therefore, they hid in the shadows and waited for us to retreat, and only after we had withdrawn did they dare to flee.
Thinking of this, I couldn't help but laugh in my heart, body armor, body armor, I didn't expect you to do me a big favor this time!
"Counselor Wang!" I ran to Wang Yuehan's side and ordered him softly: "You will continue to move forward with the soldiers, and after running out of four miles, send two soldiers to report the situation to Commander Chu, and say that we will follow the puppet army agents to find their nest and ask Commander Chu to send troops to reinforcements." You will come back with your troops immediately, and I will mark all the way, and you follow my mark carefully! ”
"Yes!" Listening to my order, Wang Yuehan glanced at me unexpectedly, but didn't ask much.
At this time, the team turned along the mountain road and soon entered a forest. Seeing that the time was ripe, I called Huzi and Hu Zudi, and went into the forest next to me......
