Chapter 33: The Turtle in the Wing
"Ghost, exactly what it was intended to do. Now this cave has become the grave of the lieutenant colonel! ”
As he spoke, Liu Guodong laughed strangely. He was so proud of his wonderful business masterpiece!
At this time, in the cave, it was indeed the representative of the young Zhuang faction in the Annam Army, Lieutenant Colonel Ruan Yu.
The youngest and most accomplished young battalion commander of the 710 Special Forces Unit is trapped in the cave with three of his men. At the time of the explosion, he happened to take his fiancée and several of his men to live in Donghe City. originally thought that he and his fiancée An Wenjuan would take the morning train the next day and enter the capital Luocheng directly.
But after the explosion, another attack took place on Highway 1, killing more than a dozen gendarmes and several agents on the spot. He immediately judged that the attacker had fled along Highway 1. So, he left An Wenjuan behind, and with a few of his men, he drove two jeeps along Highway 1 and chased north.
When the car reached a big bend in the road, I found a jeep hidden on the side of the road. At that moment, a train came in the distance. He understood in an instant that the other party was trying to pick up the train and escape.
He quickly led his men and got out of the train and rushed to the train track, when the fire was about to pass, and they desperately picked up the tail train. The truck is unmanned, and the tail car is a charcoal truck loaded with coal. As soon as they stood firmly in the carriage, a figure faintly appeared on the truck in front of them.
Before Ruan Yu could give the order, Adjutant Nguyen Phu Dung had already opened it with his gun. The "bang" gunfire exposed the intentions of his own side and startled the snake. Then, they can only confront each other.
The opponent's marksmanship is accurate, there are also sniper rifles, the coal cart is flat, and the opponent's accurate point shooting makes them unable to raise their heads. Time was passing minute by minute, and the speed of the car was getting faster and faster, but Ruan Yu was not in a hurry. As long as you can drag the other party in the car, the further north you go, the more heavily armed you will gather, and see where you can run!
The confrontation continued like this, and I don't know how long it took, suddenly, there was a loud "boom" in front of me, and the speed of the car suddenly slowed down.
Not good!
Ruan Yu's brain exploded all of a sudden, and the other party blew up the connection of the train, and he was thrown down along with a few carriages.
Seeing the train in front of him gradually moving away, Ruan Yu jumped out of the train with everyone, and without the slightest hesitation, he ran towards a firewood factory not far from the roadside. It was already evening, and the firewood factory workers had long since rested, surrounded by a ring of barbed wire, and the gate was closed.
Nguyen Phu Dung opened the gate a few times, and three wolf dogs roared and rushed up. Ruan Yu let go of the three dogs in a shuttle, and at this moment, the janitor held a powder gun, "boomed" from inside the door, and fired a shot, and an agent who rushed to the front quickly pounced on Ruan Yu.
He escaped, but the agent was injured by countless leads, and the person became pockmarked, hiding on the ground and howling and rolling away. Nguyen Yu and Nguyen Phu Dung fired a few shots and killed the janitor.
Ruan Yu checked the injured companions, all of them were minor injuries, and they were not fatal for the time being. Then he commanded him, "Your wounds don't matter. We go to chase the fleeing enemy, you find a phone to call and report, so that the departments can quickly block the border. Then, let the car from the Donghe military station pick you up and take you to the hospital. ”
After saying that, he rushed to the truck in the courtyard and sat in the cab. At this time, Nguyen Phu Dung and the others were already on fire, and the car "boomed", smashed through the gate, rushed out of the yard, and galloped north.
At this time, Ruan Yu had already understood the other party's intentions.
It is impossible for the other side to take the train all the way north into the capital plain, which is the political, military, and economic center of Annam. The most likely, easiest way for them to escape is to suddenly jump out of a car somewhere and head west, then cross the border and enter the Lancang primeval rainforest.
And once you enter the dense primeval forest, it is like a fish entering the sea, and there is nothing you can do about them.
"Lieutenant Colonel, Cologne...... The underground passage of Cologne was an important cantonment cave of the People's Army in those years. The rest of the caves, most of them have collapsed over the years......" Nguyen Phu judged with courage and gasp.
"On the march to Cologne!"
Ruan Yu blurted out an order, feeling a little more good for Ruan Fuyong in his heart.
This adjutant is his own uncle, and he can't fight, but he is absolutely first-class in using his brains and engaging in power schemes, and he is a good helper for himself!
They followed the highway and sped north. When approaching the outskirts of Donghae, abandon the car and enter the secondary rainforest on the left side of the road and run wildly towards Cologne. For hours on end, he took the lead and ran desperately. He had only one belief, he must get ahead of the other side and stop them within the border.
Finally, they climbed over a hill, and when they were about to descend the mountain, Ruan Yu, who was standing on the top of the mountain, noticed that there was something in the mountain stream ahead. In the telescope lens, the figure of the other party flashed, and then disappeared into the dense secondary rainforest. The other party was still walking in front of them, crossing the mountain stream and climbing halfway up the opposite mountain.
He felt that the situation was very serious, and if he wanted to cross the mountain stream in front of him and catch up with them directly, it would take at least more than an hour. And more than an hour is enough for them to sneak into the tunnels, escape into the territory of Lancang, and then sink into the sea like a stone, disappearing without a trace in the primeval rainforest.
Thinking of this, he did not hesitate to raise his sniper rifle and fired a few "bangs" at the glade on the opposite side of the mountain stream. The other party really stopped advancing, which was exactly what he wanted.
"Speed up, chase in a straight line!" He took the lead and rushed down the hill.
If the other party is scared, bypass the open space in front of you, and it is impossible to move faster in the dense forest. And he Ruan Yu will go in a straight line, and this time difference is his only chance to win. So, he commanded the squad and rushed down the mountain stream at all costs.
But people are not as good as heaven, and he is still empty and happy.
When he reached the foot of the mountain and found the entrance to the cave, he saw the footprints of the other party and the corpses of four local agents. He didn't expect that this would be deliberately left for him by the other party. He took a team of five people, didn't think much about it, and didn't hesitate to burrow into the cave.
The cave had apparently been repaired, and they quickly chased it inside. The spearhead has eliminated two sets of tricks in a row, but he still stepped on a more advanced set of tricks. Two grenades exploded "boom" and "boom", killing the spearhead on the spot.
"Lieutenant Colonel, this is not an ordinary person, it is clearly to lure us into the hole, we should get out of the hole quickly!"
Nguyen Phu Dung had already spotted the danger and quickly sent a warning signal.
"It's late, don't wait for us to return to the cave, the back road will be cut off." Ruan Yu gritted his teeth and said. He had just finished speaking for a while, and sure enough, there was a faint explosion behind him, and the cave shook violently.
The retreat has been broken, and there is only one way to chase it!
They searched more cautiously, removing defenses along the way. With such a high level of defense, he already understood. The attacker on the Donghe military station was by no means an ordinary agent. I have met a "professional" opponent, and this is the handiwork of "professionals" like them. And now that he has been lured into this sealed tunnel in the rear, he knows very well what awaits him.
"Speeding up and rushing out of the city to fight them to the death is the only way to survive."
The team picked up speed and rushed towards the hole in desperation. However, when they had advanced about a kilometer, suddenly, there was a loud bang in front of them, and the walls and ground of the cave shook violently, and then shook slightly several times in succession. Ruan Yu stopped, and the team members also stopped.
They all understood that the exits at both ends of the tunnel had been firmly sealed!
Ruan Yu felt a little in his heart and calmed down. Then he sat down by the brook, took a handful of clear spring water, and took a sip. Everyone sat down around him, washed his face, lit a cigarette, and said nothing. They are all mountain dwellers, and they know too well what it means to be sealed under the mountains.
At this point, any idea is almost superfluous.
Suddenly, Ruan Phu Dung found something under the flashlight, and he couldn't help but feel a burst of surprise in his heart.
It turned out that it was a few fish, swimming slowly upstream against the stream. These fish have no reaction to electric light, but are extremely sensitive to sound. He held his breath and caught one without effort, weighing half a catty. When I picked it up, it was a fish that I had never seen before. Most particularly, it has no eyes.
"Lieutenant Colonel, there are fish, springs, and air, and we are not yet at the end of the mountain! We can dig slowly, no matter how long it is, even if it is a year, we can always dig the exit......"
Ruan Yu smiled bitterly, but said firmly, "Of course, we can dig it out!" ”
In fact, he knew that this was just a dream. The Indochina Peninsula is almost all karst landforms, with abundant rain, and the limestone of the mountain has formed several caves underground after tens of millions of years of rainwater immersion. Because the inside of the mountain becomes soft and bulky, when the explosives explode, the soil and rocks that fall are not limited to thousands of directions.
Relying on the four of them to dig out the Lu, it is just a beautiful vision.
But though he thought so in his heart, he couldn't say it. He wants to keep his subordinates' spirits from collapsing, and make them feel that they still have a head to go.
After resting for a while, he silently took the lead and began to dig a hole.
The actions of the leader are silent orders, and in the 710 Secret Service Brigade, he is a young military leader who knows and does the same, and what he does best is to influence his soldiers with his actions. At this moment, Nguyen Phu Dung and two soldiers really joined the ranks of digging the earth.
But the new soil in the mouth of the cave seems to be endless, and it can never be dug up. After a long pursuit, they ran out of strength. At this time, the strong hunger made them really unable to do it after a while. Nguyen Phu Dung, with two soldiers with special skills, caught a few fish in the stream in a short time.
There was no firewood, so Ruan Yu took the lead and ate it raw......
For the next few years, they remained in the cave. At first, they dug tunnels for a while, but slowly they gave up reluctantly. Food became a big problem, and the fish in the creek were not endless, waiting in line for them to catch one, often for days.
