266: Special Operators attack
Far northeast, since the beginning of winter, the northeast has had several heavy snowfalls, the ground is full of white snow, people walk up, the snow instantly floods the thighs, every step of the walk, is very difficult. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
A group of more than 50 people, dressed in white coats, wore a steel helmet that had not been fully popularized in the Han army, and a white hood on his head, leaving only eyes and mouth.
The white coat's own hat conceals the steel helmet on top of the head, making the whole person turn white and become one with the earth.
If it weren't for the footprints on the ground that betrayed them, now as long as they lay motionless on the ground, the enemy might not be able to spot them even if they were a hundred meters away.
Of course, if you get closer, then you will find that these more than 50 people are very different from those Han troops. In front of these people, those Han troops who have been called elite are not worth mentioning.
Most of them had the strange-looking guns in their hands, and some had a binocular-looking rifle on them.
The team slowly stopped, and the person walking in front took out a map from his arms, while the soldiers behind him automatically looked for cover to keep guard.
These things don't need to be ordered at all, and in their eyes, they are completely the most ordinary things, as ordinary as a soldier standing in a military posture.
The leader looked at the map for a long time, then looked around, and finally could only shake his head helplessly.
There is no way, the snow covers the mountains, and there is a white expanse everywhere, and it is impossible to refer to your position from the terrain.
And now, the only thing he can guarantee is to keep going north, and then, when encountering a river, turn east, and then enter the enemy-occupied territory, and begin their real mission.
Although their mission had already begun from the moment they left the barracks, it was in their own occupation zone after all, and the soldiers did not have much vigilance.
"No, we can't go here anymore, we have to find a way as soon as possible, and then follow the road." Yuan Dahai looked back at the dense footprints behind him, and couldn't help but feel a little helpless in his heart.
Originally, it was to avoid his own people, so he chose to take this path.
But now that they are getting closer and closer to the enemy-occupied area, it is easy to leak themselves by taking this road, although it may be discovered, but it is no longer important, and completing the task as soon as possible is the most important thing.
"Sir, I seem to know where this is." After observing for a long time, one soldier finally felt that this place was a little familiar, and he felt as if he had been there.
In the end, after a long time of memories, I finally remembered this place, and immediately walked to Yuan Dahai's side and reported.
"Where?" Yuan Dahai hurriedly asked.
In order to complete this task, Yuan Dahai deliberately selected some soldiers, including three soldiers from the Second Army and two soldiers from Yanbian, but these two people joined the army in the capital, and they also used the quota of the First Army.
"This should be the west of the Xiaba River, there will be a canyon about ten miles to the east, go northeast along the canyon is the Hunjiang River, and then go east along the Hunjiang River, it is the Yalu River, according to our speed, you can reach the Yalu River before dark." The soldier said.
His hometown is not far from here, and he once went out to hunt with his father in the winter a few years ago, and he happened to come here, and he also caught two hares here, so he will leave a shadow of this place in his memory.
And what he just said was also told to him by his father back then, it is said that his father went to the riverside when he was young, but he didn't expect it to be used.
Of course, pointers aren't meant to be credited.
Which of them has not undergone special training? Even if you can't find the way now, you can find the way quickly based on some professional knowledge. He did this just to hope that the troops would reach the target area as soon as possible, and it was as simple as that.
Yuan Dahai buried his head in looking at the map, according to the soldier, roughly determined his location, the distance is about the same, and the direction is not too far off.
Immediately, Yuan Dahai waved his hand, and the troops quickly assembled, each guarding their own area, and the whole team quickly rushed forward.
Out of the barracks, it is the battlefield.
This is a warning message from their army, and it also tells them that they are different.
Even now, they don't have their own number.
According to Wang Sirui, if they can successfully complete this task, then they will be given a number.
Although up to now, they have only only entered this unit for three months, and today, three months, is the day they go to the army to report.
That is, after they completed the first stage of selection, they were sent out to carry out the mission alone after only two months of training.
It hasn't even reached the three-month guarantee period for Wang Sirui to become an army, but Wang Sirui still gave them a little too much time.
On the premise of not restricting ammunition, it took less than a week for the gang to become completely familiar with the performance of the guns in their hands.
In less than half a month, he was able to achieve the same level of proficiency as he was familiar with the Type 30 rifle or the Mauser rifle, and then it took another month and a half to complete the squad combat training.
Of course, as an assessment criterion for testing the combat capability of this unit, they have successfully carried out a beheading operation against Wang Sirui, a beheading operation against Wang Shizhen, and a beheading operation against Duan Qirui.
The most speechless thing is that Wang Sirui actually ordered them to intercept the four army commanders who were called into Beijing, and all of them succeeded in 'killing' the mission target without exception.
The task completion rate is 100%, but even so, Wang Sirui still puts forward stricter requirements for them.
And then......
Wang Sirui decided to arrange a real task for this unit in advance, and if he didn't make a move, it would be the most severe task, and even a task that an army could not complete.
And before the mission, no one thought that their mission would be like this, and the difficulty was unimaginable.
So, in order to carry out this mission, they carried almost no supplies, each of them only brought part of the ration, and the rest was all ammunition.
Anyway, everywhere you can see, all the ammunition is hanging, and everyone has at least six hundred bullets on their backs.
After half a day's march, this small detachment of more than 50 people finally arrived at the west bank of the Yalu River, but it was still early at this time, Yuan Dahai ordered the troops to rest in place, and then personally took two soldiers to survey the terrain.
After winter, the Yalu River is already a frozen river, and crossing the river at this time is like playing, and any point can be passed.
The main reason for choosing this place is that there have been almost no decent battles here, or even no battles, and according to the information received from the Second Army, the enemy is relatively weakly defended on the opposite bank here.
At about 10 o'clock that night, Yuan Dahai led more than 50 special combat personnel to quietly cross the Yalu River, and then disappeared directly into North Korea on the other side.
Winter nights, especially those covered with a layer of snow, are not much worse than during the day, although there are no street lights, no lights, and even the moon in the sky is not so bright.
Under such conditions, it is still possible to see a kilometer away.
Of course, the premise is the movement of a large army, to look at more than 50 people in camouflage when standing a kilometer away from the enemy, forget it, let's wash and sleep, you can't see it at all, do you really think that those camouflage are just for the sake of good looks?
If it weren't for the help of these disguises, I am afraid that I would have been discovered by the Second Army before I even reached the border.
The goal of their mission this time is to sneak to Pyongyang, and then bring Lee Hee-to, who is currently the self-proclaimed king of Korea, to the country, and if possible, kill Concubine Min.
In fact, just thinking about it makes me feel a little impossible, Li Xi has been completely hollowed out at present, and the person in power is Concubine Min, and the Japanese dare not do too much to Li Xi in order to control North Korea.
Therefore, Li Xi was not escorted to Japan to spend the rest of his life like the king of the Ryukyus.
But for Li Xi's 'protection', the Japanese still put a lot of effort into it. Just the imperial palace in Pyongyang, the Japanese sent a brigade of troops to garrison it, and even assigned a squadron of troops to guard Li Xi alone, supervising it 24 hours a day.
Not to mention anything else, it is a question whether these guys in fancy clothes and carrying a large number of weapons can enter Pyongyang smoothly, let alone the tightly guarded palace?
In order to control Korea, the Japanese can be said to have put a lot of thought into it.
Similarly, Li Xi also racked his brains in order to get out of the control of the Japanese.
Since the defeat of the First Sino-Japanese War, Li Xi sent his cronies to the capital, constantly lobbying the Qing court to send troops to Korea to rescue Li Xi and drive the Japanese away.
Although the Qing court's approach was very disappointing, especially in the following years, the Qing court was defeated one after another.
However, the appearance of Wang Sirui made Li Xi see hope.
So, Li Xi's envoy set his sights on Wang Sirui.
In Li Xi's view, if Korea had to submit to a powerful country, he would rather choose the Qing Empire than look at the Japanese, even if it was just a glance.
Look at what the Japanese have done over the years, for their interests, they even almost killed Li Xi directly.
Compared with the treatment of Li Xi by the Qing court in the past, it is simply a heaven and an earth, and there is no comparison at all.
The Japanese are as long as you do something that harms their interests, and without saying a word, they will immediately clean you up.
On the other hand, the Qing court?
The Chinese people, the dignified Celestial Empire, the land is vast and rich, how can people look at the little North Korea in their eyes? Besides, as far as your poor mountain is concerned, you are reluctant to accept it from others.
As long as the Chinese people are happy in terms of face, the benefits will naturally be great.
As everyone sees, every time North Korea sends some worthless things such as native products to the Qing Dynasty, and the gifts given by the Qing court are enough for the expenses of the Korean royal family for a year, and the most important thing is that the Qing court does not interfere in the internal affairs of North Korea, where can such a good master be found?
Li Xi has long wanted to break away from Japanese control and rejoin the arms of his master, and now he has finally found an opportunity. (To be continued.) )
