163. Chapter 17 (2)
The rain had not stopped, and after a night of tossing, it was now almost dawn.
Liu Zhijun and Wang Guoqing walked in this area of ravines, which were halfway up the mountain, and then went down to the open area that they had just seen on the top of the mountain.
The characteristics of the Sino-Vietnamese border are high mountains and dense forests, large and small potholes are all over the mountains, some people have dug them artificially, but more of them are naturally formed, there are only two seasons of dry and rainy seasons a year, and June and July are the most abundant rainfall seasons here, even the Vietnamese troops stationed here for a long time are not very suitable for this long rainy season.
As soon as Liu Xuejun and Wang Guoqing found a hidden place and set up a guard, the sky began to brighten, although the rain was still falling, it was much lighter than at night.
Through the high-powered telescopes, they found several very well concealed artillery positions, scattered in groups of three or five in this open area, several people carefully observed, while marking the corresponding coordinates on the map, and the communications squad leader was nervously debugging the radio station.
The two reconnaissance platoon commanders carefully searched every inch of this mountainous area, and at this time there was the same question in the hearts of the two people, judging from the Vietnamese artillery attack fire they perceived, the Vietnamese artillery positions found now were far from reaching the attack intensity, so there were only two reasons, one was that some of the attack fire had been transferred, and the other reason was that they had not yet discovered it, and these artillery that had not been found or transferred was the biggest threat to their rear.
What was frustrating was not only that they could not find the main artillery position of the Vietnamese army, but the communication squad leader told them an even more embarrassing news at this time, the radio they were carrying was out of order, which meant that even if they found the main force of the Vietnamese artillery, they would not be able to pass on the news.
"What's going on?" "Why?"
The two of them asked in unison.
"One was damaged in the firefight, but even if it wasn't broken, we wouldn't be able to send a message, our equipment was not powerful enough, and the mountains and forests here weakened the transmission of signals."
The communications squad leader explained, in fact, he didn't say it, these people also knew the approximate reason, they had gone too deep behind enemy lines, and they had exceeded the communication distance.
At this time, a thin fog rose in the mountains, and the rain that had been falling all night gradually stopped, and the communication squad leader tried to move higher to improve the signal strength, but he was afraid of exposing the position of the team, and the effect was not good after several attempts, so he had to give up.
"Lao Liu, look there."
Following the direction of Wang Guoqing's finger, Liu Xuejun saw a secret fortification built on the opposite hillside, and if you didn't look carefully, you really couldn't find it, where there were several tall antennas.
Needless to say, there is a communications agency responsible for liaison with the front.
"You mean we're going there?"
Liu Xuejun guessed Wang Guoqing's intentions.
"The most direct way to go there is to go there, with our current position, we have to retreat a long way to be able to get the communication distance, and when we can get in touch with the rear, I'm afraid they don't know where to go."
Liu Xuejun felt Wang Guoqing's words, this truth is obvious, but on the other hand, it is an unavoidable fact, that is, even if they can get there and successfully send a message, it will be more difficult to retreat than to ascend to the sky.
"I don't want anything other than how can we get past now without being discovered?"
Liu Xuejun pointed to the open field below.
"We were lucky enough to be fooled in the night, but now that it's daylight and people are coming and going, we can't be as lucky as last night."
"Then we can't wait here, what can you do?"
Wang Guoqing was a little anxious, and it was no wonder that there were several small detachments that set off with them, and before they set off, the regiment commander Wu Shan gave them a death order, to find the artillery positions of the Vietnamese army at any cost, and they were too threatening to our army.
But from the subsequent correspondence, Wang Guoqing learned that only his own team successfully crossed the blockade line of the Vietnamese army, but it was also discovered by the Vietnamese army, if it were not for Liu Xuejun's reconnaissance team of the 386th Regiment that had gone lost, their team would have been destroyed.
Now that he has finally found the nest of the Vietnamese artillery position, Wang Guoqing just wants to pass on the information as soon as possible, even if he is broken.
"Brother, don't worry, there will always be a way."
Although Liu Xuejun was as unhurried as usual on the surface, he was not anxious in his heart.
"Old squad leader, I think we still take medicine as prescribed, and continue to swagger in."
It was Xiao Yan behind the two of them who spoke.
Both of them widened their eyes and turned their heads to look at the handsome cadet soldier behind them.
Wang Guoqing sneered and said:
"To put it lightly, but also swaggering, when you are back to your parents' home, people will open the door to welcome you? Monkey business. ”
Maybe it's because of his temperament, Wang Guoqing didn't like these people from the beginning, and it's no wonder that he has always been on the front line to investigate, and when he came out of the regiment, Liang Qing and his team had just rushed to the 469 regiment to report, so they didn't have the opportunity to appreciate how these new cadets were different from the past, and in his consciousness, he only thought that these people were new recruits, and coming to the front line would only cause them chaos.
Xiao Yan's face was flushed by Wang Guoqing, and she glanced at Liu Xuejun a little overwhelmed, this is on the front line, she knows that her experience and qualifications cannot be compared with these veteran oils.
Liu Xuejun smiled, "Then you can talk about it, and you should be a dead horse and a living doctor." ”
"Old squad leader, we have been trained in this kind of fixed-point raid, and now we have enough manpower, I think so, I will go down, I will pretend to be a Vietnamese army officer."
Xiaoyan's words really shocked the two squad leaders, I don't know if this girl is crazy.
But Xiaoyan no longer gives them a chance to refute herself, she knows that from the beginning to the present, she has never received the equal treatment she deserves, and Xiaoyan, who has always been competitive, has to find a way to let them know that she is by no means a burden to this team.
"Two squad leaders, listen to me first, of course, if you go on like this, you will definitely be suspected, but I have an advantage that you don't have, that is, I am a woman."
"There are few women in the army, and when there are female soldiers in the team, the first thing you male soldiers think of when they see it is definitely not whether this person is a spy or not, but whether she looks beautiful and whether her figure is good, and the same is true for Vietnamese soldiers, so we seize this psychological contrast, and we break in before they can figure out the truth."
Xiao Yan glanced at the two squad leaders in front of him, and the eyes of these two squad leaders were as wide as cowbells.
"Of course I'm not going alone, just now Ah Luo and Ah Chang want to follow, as well as the comrade in charge of communications, a total of five people, let them pretend to be my entourage, you can hypothetically say that I am the sister of the Vietnamese artillery commander, or a newly sent communications officer from the superiors, or a military medical officer, anything can be done, as long as I get in, I will have a way to get inside."
"And these people in our cadet corps all have walkie-talkies, you can provide us with observation and guidance in the mountains, which can allow us to avoid Vietnamese soldiers as much as possible, and we also have long-range snipers, which can also provide long-range fire support when we are entangled and unable to get out."
Xiao Yan said so much in one breath, and then quietly looked at the two veterans in front of him.
The two veteran soldiers were shocked by Xiao Yan's words, not only them, but also these scouts around them were stunned, they really didn't know what this seemingly young female student had in his head, this kind of combat method was something they had never imagined.
How do these veterans know that this method of surprise attack is the most basic combat mode that these cadets who have been trained since childhood must master and use, and the way of thinking of these cadets in the face of war is far beyond the scope that they can understand.
Seeing that both of them were staring at him, Xiaoyan was a little overwhelmed.
"What? Can't you? ”
After a long time, Wang Guoqing asked, "Where did you send your ......?" Is it a cadet soldier? ”
Liu Xuejun pulled Wang Guoqing:
"Don't talk about this yet, I think the method she said can be tried, and they may have hope of success if they are caught off guard."
Wang Guoqing glanced at Xiaoyan and said:
"Aren't you scared when you walk head-on? This is no joke. ”
At this time, Wang Guoqing's words did not taste of contempt at all, but were completely out of consideration for whether the action could be successful.
Xiao Yan was wrong, she was angry with this Wang squad leader who had always looked down on her, but she couldn't say anything, Xiao Yan's rare positive color said:
"Two squad leaders, I won't joke with my own lives, let alone everyone's lives and our tasks, I'm just saying my advice."
Xiaoyan's snatching made several people do it there.
Qin Han came over.
"Two squad leaders, I also heard about you and Xiaoyan's plan just now, I think we can take this risk, for the time being, we don't have a better and feasible plan, if the Vietnamese patrol that we eliminated is discovered, I'm sure the Vietnamese army will immediately move its position, and there is not much time left for us."
"As for the probability of success, I think this is not the forefront after all, and most of the soldiers in the barracks are ordinary artillerymen, and they will not be as vigilant as the soldiers at the front, we just need to pay more attention to the Vietnamese army's guards and try not to meet them, and the four of us have communication equipment, so it is not a problem to communicate with each other within this range."
"Two squad leaders, you see if this will work, Wan Kai's set of walkie-talkies is placed in your observer here, pointing out the attack coordinates and directions to Xiaoyan at any time, and Xiaoyan and them will send back to our artillery, Li Dalei stays here to be responsible for covering, observing, and providing fire support, Wan Kai and I went down to infiltrate the Vietnamese army, and the idea is to get a military vehicle, so that it is convenient for us to evacuate quickly when we leave, and everyone else is ready for emergency, and we will evacuate quickly after the attack coordinates are issued."
This is a complete set of special forces raid operation plan, but as soon as Qin Han's voice fell, there was a piercing alarm sound from the position below, and the sky was already bright at this time, and the fog in the mountains began to thicken.
The sudden sound of the alarm means that the situation down the hill has changed.
