Chapter 12 The Send-off Ceremony
Seeing that everyone in the team was in a state of contemplation, Yang Mingtao analyzed it from a political and moral perspective.
Politics and morality aside, and from a purely tactical point of view, the Angolan invasion of Khmer is a successful example. At the beginning of the war, the Angolan army used such tactical means as surprise attacks, simultaneous attacks from multiple routes, separate and combined attacks, and quick battles and quick victories.
But how can war leave politics and morality aside?
Relying on its military superiority, the Annan authorities have bullied the weak with the strong to attack a sovereign country and engage in regional hegemony, which is obviously an unjust war, and this is despised by the people of the whole world. Although it has been able to gain a momentary advantage for a while, due to the injustice of its war, it is doomed to defeat in the end.
In the early days of the war, the Khmer side suffered heavy casualties and seriously lost the support of the people because of the long-term pursuit of the ultra-"leftist" line in the country, the brutalization of innocent people, and the driving of 2 million residents of Khmer into the mountains. As a result, under the blows of several large armies of the Anjun army, the Khmer army was overwhelmed, and the great rivers and mountains were handed over.
This so-called internal strife will inevitably lead to external troubles, which is a general law of history.
After retreating into the mountainous areas, the resistance of the various Khmer factions quickly reorganized their ranks, adjusted their strategies and tactics, established the principle of relying on the people for long-term warfare, established base areas in the western mountainous areas, and turned their backs to Siam to obtain foreign aid, and launched various forms of guerrilla warfare. Militarily, it is gradually changing the passive situation in the early stage of the war, and is seizing the initiative in the war step by step.
In particular, the People's Republic of Cambodia (KMN) coalition government was set up to unify all the forces of resistance against Vietnam, and it took the initiative to attack with flexible strategies and tactics, carried out attacks, attacked strongholds, cut off communications, and carried out propaganda to win over the people, and dealt a heavy blow to the Anglo Army and the Phnom Penh puppet army militarily, politically, and psychologically.
At this time, if an effective tactical team is sent to secretly enter the territory of Khmer, the main force of the Angolan army in Koh Kong Province will be blitzed with thunder, and the deployment of the entire 200,000 troops in Annam in Khmer will be completely disrupted, and the "strategic balance" formed for a short time will be broken. Let the An army fall into the quagmire, unable to survive, unable to die, only slowly exhausted to death. ”
Yang Mingtao continued, "As an important part of the South Asia strategy, I joined the Khmer tactical team, and I have to complete an important task by the way!" ”
It turned out that after the invasion of the Angolan army, an excellent intelligence officer and a member of the embassy in Khmer fell behind enemy lines at the same time. Their identities have not been revealed and they have been held as ordinary prisoners in a military prison in the city of Kemalapmin, the capital of Koh Kong province.
It was Annam's military stronghold in the Khmer capital region and was the headquarters of the 432nd Division. Over the years, the Naga team has faced various serious challenges, and although they have been kept an eye on, they have not been able to get them out of prison.
Yang Mingtao said, looking at Yu Songyuan, "They have important information and are excellent sons and daughters of the motherland." The intention of the headquarters is to rescue the Anjun army from prison after you have successfully completed your mission to contain them! ”
After Yang Mingtao finished speaking, he deliberately paused for a while to give them enough time to digest this strategic task.
Yu Songyuan had already understood, and he was extremely shocked!
This huge South Asia strategy was only revealed by the "No. 1" and "No. 2" strategies at home. Before the military objectives and tasks of attacking the hinterland of Annam are completed, according to the secret war routine, the higher authorities cannot disclose the next operational intention in advance. However, Yang Mingtao, as a member of the Indochina Peninsula, made all his entire combat intentions public.
Could it be that as a senior intelligence agent, he is not afraid that anyone who will be arrested and unable to endure the punishment will vomit out?
The other three members of the team also opened their eyes wide, and this plan was completely unexpected by all of them. The frankness of the team leader shocked them even more.
Yu Songyuan and the others were still thinking, and Thomas and Siddingkel, the "Commissar Man", looked at the map and finally came to their senses. The two of them clapped their hands excitedly, and Thomas was already exclaiming, "Oh, myGod! You Chinese are so good at planning and planning, after going around for a long time, my head is going to be dizzy, it turns out to be a super perfect plan! ”
Liu Guodong's leopard eyes widened and glared at him sharply, Thomas quickly closed his mouth, shrugged apologetically, spread his hands, and apologized.
The "old virgin" Irina on the side looked at the sand table, but frowned, shook her beautiful little head, and said in fluent Chinese, "NO, NO, it's easy to talk about fighting, it's too difficult to save people!" Where are the people locked up, how do they enter Koh Kong Province, and how do they evacuate after saving them? This plan is too large and needs to be supported by more detailed intelligence. ”
The question of the "old virgin" is actually also the problem of the four brothers in the squad.
But Yu Songyuan didn't ask, he believed that since the boss of the Naga group had come to Cologne in the dust, he must have come with a complete plan. And he deliberately didn't say it, he must have a more detailed arrangement.
So he said: "Please rest assured, team leader, promise to complete the task!" ”
Yang Mingtao saw the changes in their psychology, and he said calmly, "The plan has been formed, and I will give you a special briefing before you carry out your mission." You are about to set out on an expedition, and I have come this time mainly to meet you and at the same time to share with you the grim situation in the Indochina Peninsula. So that everyone has a clear understanding of the overall situation before the big fight! ”
At this moment, Long Ji and Zhou Tieli both came in.
Lao Zhou first greeted Yang Mingtao, and then reported, "Team leader, the brothers' team's attack targets, plans, and required equipment in the Donghe River have been fully prepared. After the attack was completed, the retreat route was to get under the Kandanla Bridge on Highway No. 1 in Donghe City and enter the South China Sea. Then stealthily go ashore from the cave sea and dive back to Cologne. I'm going to be one step ahead and set off tonight to make preliminary preparations for the retreat of the brothers. ”
"Iron plow, how do you go?" Yang Mingtao asked with concern. Lao Zhou's big name is Zhou Tieli, and his code name is also Tieli.
"First the Great Chief sent a boat to take me to Bannengji, then took the train from Highway 12 to Tongwen, and then went directly to Donghe City by rail. It takes about ten days to walk, but it's relatively safe. When the time comes, I will take the boat and wait for the queue at the pier under the Kandanala Bridge, but I can only wait for two or three days. After three days, suspicion will be raised, therefore, before the thirtyth, the brother squad will arrive anyway! ”
Yu Songyuan held his hand, "A word is a certainty!" If we can't get under the bridge before the 30th, please don't wait, everything to ensure your own safety is the first principle! ”
"This ......" Lao Zhou looked at Yang Mingtao in embarrassment.
Yang Mingtao nodded, "Xiao Yu's arrangement is right, if the brother team fails to arrive under the bridge within three days, you must evacuate quickly with your people." Fight behind enemy lines, with safety as the first principle! ”
"Huh?" Long Ji asked in surprise, "Team leader, this is not appropriate." The ship is gone, how can the brothers squad retreat? ”
Yu Songyuan said, "Brother Zhou, Brother Long, Xie Lu thank you for your concern." Trust us, there will be a way to evacuate safely! When Lao Zhou and Long Ji heard this, it was not good to ask again.
Seeing Lao Zhou away, Yang Mingtao asked Long Ji: "Going south along the border from the river, can you go on your big bamboo raft?" ”
"This is a small river in the middle of the jungle, with many dangerous shoals, and some places are very shallow, and the raft cannot be passed even if it is empty. This river is Siamese crocodile territory and is dangerous to navigate. But don't worry, Sister Xu has already arranged it. At present, the boatmen have prepared two small rafts with cowhide airbags at the ferry terminal, which are driven by gasoline engines and can go up for about 60 kilometers. ”
Yang Mingtao said decisively, "That's good, the brother team will set off before dawn." Xiao Yu, after you leave, I, Longji and Thomas's team will be responsible for staying here, and after you return, everyone will quickly retreat to Viencher! ”
When Long Ji heard this, he said, "Okay, then I'll arrange for the workers to cook now!" The defense here, don't worry, I, the team leader, and the team are sitting here, waiting for you to return victoriously! ”
After Long Ji left, Yang Mingtao and Yu Songyuan looked at the sand table again and deduced the plan from beginning to end.
Liu Guodong had already gone to prepare the equipment, Lin Zhumin pointed to the sand table and said: "Team leader, boss, the top priority is to strive to enter the Duguo Mountain as soon as possible and establish a safe base!" But infiltrating the primeval forest, without a guide, will encounter several unimaginable difficulties! ”
It seems that this is a problem that everyone ignores, but Yang Mingtao said, "Your eldest sister Xu will take these problems into account, and there will definitely be a guide waiting for you before crossing the border!" ”
Mei Xue and the others sat indoors, quietly watching them carefully plan their actions, and they didn't dare to come out for fear of disturbing them. It was only when everything was arranged and everything was ready that they all approached them reluctantly and timidly.
What kind of person Yang Mingtao is, looking at Mei Xue's worried and reluctant eyes, and then looking at the expressions of the other girls, his heart warmed up, and he ordered the young tribal girl who had been standing next to them to serve them, "In an hour and a half, come and call us for dinner." Don't disturb us before dinner, you know? ”
The tribal girl covered her mouth and smiled and withdrew, Yu Songyuan understood Yang Mingtao's humanized leadership style, he closed the door and asked, "Does the team leader play Go?" ”
Yang Mingtao nodded, "I know a little bit about one or two, and I am an amateur three." I've heard that you're a good hand. But Siddingkel is a master and he can help me. ”
As he spoke, he and Yu Songyuan played Go, and Thomas, the "Commissariat Man" Siddingkel and the "Old Virgin" all began to watch. Lin Tao whispered to Liu Guodong and Lin Zhumin, "For an hour and a half, let Mei and Su Gong help you pack your luggage and hold a 'farewell' ceremony, it's enough time!" ”
Liu Guodong and Lin Zhumin invariably glanced at a group of people who were concentrating on playing Go, Mei and Su Gong were at a loss when they heard this, and they blushed with shame, but they were still held by the two and went into the inner room to hold a "farewell ceremony".
Mei Xue and Su Ji's faces were red, seeing that Mei and Su Gong were so happy, the two of them were full of anticipation, and they leaned on Yu Songyuan and Lin Tao's side and watched them concentrate on chess. Seeing that they were still unmoved, they gave up after a while, and walked aside helplessly to play with the little wolf cub.
