136. Chapter 5 (2) Lost

After a day and two nights of groping in the fog, the reconnaissance team finally got out of the predicament, and it was only then that they realized that their current position had long deviated far from their original route.

And because it was far beyond the intended reconnaissance area, and because it was surrounded by mountains, it played a good shielding role, and their communication equipment also lost its function, and the reconnaissance team lost contact with the headquarters.

This reconnaissance team included Qin Han, Xiaoyan, Wan Kai and Li Dalei four 'snow wolf' members, as well as six old scouts, and the group walked a long way along the mountain stream before walking out of the primeval forest and into an open area, where they finally saw the sun they had not seen for a long time.

Now that the sun had set in the west, several streams had converged here to open up the river a lot, and these people sat tiredly on the soft sandy ground, hoping that the setting sun would drive away the cold air they had carried in the past few days.

Liu Xuejun, the leader of the reconnaissance squad, unfolded the map, and after several people carefully compared it, they finally determined their position, and the results surprised them.

Now they are in a position far away from the defense area of their main force, the 386th Regiment, comparatively speaking, they are closer to the forward position of the 469th Regiment, but no matter which defense area they approach, an unchangeable reality is that they have greatly entered the hinterland of the Vietnamese army, and a serious problem before them is how to get out of danger as soon as possible without being discovered and return to the front of our position.

The expression of frustration and disappointment permeated everyone's face, especially the members of these 'Snow Wolves', who did not expect that their first participation in the battle would start with getting lost, not only did they return in vain, but they also asked their friendly troops to escort them back, which was not a glorious thing to say.

Squad leader Liu Xuejun is a veteran who has overserved for the time limit, and his education level is not too high, but the eyes of the old scout can see what they are thinking through the expressions on the faces of these young people, he walked over and patted Qin Han on the shoulder, and said with a smile:

"Qin Han, why are you sad, it's common to get lost while fighting in this ghost place, and it's not the first time I've encountered it, don't worry, I'll definitely bring you back completely."

Qin Han smiled bitterly and shook his head.

"Old squad leader, I'm not afraid that I won't be able to go home, I just think it's too tasteless for us to go back with such a clear soup and little water, and so far we haven't even seen a shadow of the Vietnamese army, and we can't find a place to get angry."

The old squad leader was happy, "Qin Han, don't be discouraged, it's not easy to get angry, it's just that the opportunity hasn't come, when you have the opportunity, I promise that there will be a chance for you to get angry." ”

He leaned closer to Qin Han and continued:

"When I first started as a soldier, I was far worse than you, and after I came to the front line, I was almost scared to pee when I saw bullets flying around, and I won't tell you, when I first saw you, I asked me to take you recruits out, and I didn't want to do it in my heart, and I felt like I was fooling around, and taking you cadets deep behind enemy lines didn't add to the chaos? But there is no way, and there is really no suitable person. ”

"But along the way, I really admire you more and more, a good soldier does not look at how accurate his gun is and how far he throws grenades, but how high his tactical literacy is, whether his endurance is strong enough, whether his nerves are tough enough, and if he does not have strong psychological quality, just a few days of wandering around in the fog will drive people crazy."

Liu Xuejun looked around as he spoke, then looked at Xiao Yan not far away, approached Qin Han and whispered:

"Don't say anything else, if it's just a few of you old men, that little girl really opened my eyes, not to mention anything else, just in the past two days, your little girl has not been left behind at all, let me admire, and from your every move, it can be seen that you are a group of different students, I have heard that there is a group of secret training special forces, I have not seen, and I can't imagine what kind of skills these people will have, today I really saw it, at least your ability to survive in the wild has helped us a lot, Otherwise, we don't know what will happen to us in the past few days, Miss Xiaoyan, I haven't seen you speak for a long time, what are you looking at? ”

Liu Xuejun looked at Xiao Yan, who had been bowing his head and was silent, and asked.

"Old squad leader, don't call me Xiaoyan girl anymore, just call me Xiaoyan."

Xiao Yan got up and walked over as he spoke, holding a map in his hand.

"What did you come up with? Comrade Xiaoyan. The old squad leader asked with a smile.

"I'm thinking it's been three days since we left, do you hear the cannons? At least the intense artillery fire was no longer heard, so I thought that perhaps the enemy's artillery positions had been shifted, and that they might not be in the area we had forethought would need to be reconnoitred. ”

After Xiao Yan finished speaking, he looked at the old squad leader and Qin Han.

Xiaoyan's words made the old squad leader Liu Xuejun and Qin Han 'chuckle' in their hearts.

"You mean they shifted positions?" Qin Han asked.

"I'm just guessing that if the artillery in charge of long-range support starts to shift positions, does that mean that the enemy is going to have a new operation?"

Xiao Yan didn't pull the bow too full, but she had been thinking about it for the past two days, and just now she took the map and studied it for a long time, and she was firm in her thoughts.

"Okay, it's worthy of being specially trained, and it does make sense to say that it's the way." The old squad leader agreed.

Xiao Yan was encouraged and continued: "The area where the 386th Regiment is located is impregnable, no matter how much they toss, it will be in vain, before we came out, there was news that the 469th Regiment was fighting very hard, and many positions would be fought over and over again, I wonder if they will gather a team to make some big moves there?" ”

The fledgling Xiaoyan is still happy and straightforward, but she is not random and suspicious, and making judgments from subtleties and sorting out valuable information is one of the basic subjects of their training, and this is also the first hands-on practice on the battlefield.

What people didn't expect was that Xiaoyan's unintentional words this time made her guess right.

In the middle of the night, the tired scouts slept in a dry place, and the wet clothes they had worn for several days were dried by the daytime sun.

A loud roar woke up the team members who had just entered the dream realm, the earth was shaking, and the team members who quickly gathered looked at the mountains not far away, where the night sky had been reflected red by artillery fire, and watched the beams of fire fly into the distance, they knew that the foothold of those shells was our position.

The old squad leader slapped his thigh and shouted hurriedly:

"Little rabbit, I have found you, brothers, this time we must not let the artillery of the Vietnamese army slip out of our hands again, all of us are ready for battle, search and advance, this time we must find its nest, otherwise, we will be sorry for those brothers who were bombed on the front line."
