Chapter 100: Half the Cliff (11)

"Here's the thing!" Then I convened a meeting of several cadres: "The superiors have set up an evacuation point in the Wild Wolf Valley, and our task is to break through from the half-cliff to the Wild Wolf Valley!" ā€

"Battalion commander!" As soon as he heard this, Liang Lianbing was a little discouraged: "This half of the cliff is just one road, and we have more than 20 people, and we will ...... before we break out."

Speaking of this, Liang Lianbing stopped his mouth and didn't go on, the taboo of being a soldier to fight is those unlucky words, especially at this time.

"That's what I thought!" I continued, "We will think so, and so will the devils. So it is very likely that the Vietnamese militia is focusing their defense on helicopters that may come to the rescue, as for us...... They thought that they would only need a few machine guns to seal it off, or that even if they found out about the war, they would be able to detect it in advance and move their forces in time! ā€

"What's wrong with that?" Scar asked: "There is only one road in half of the cliff, the exit is narrow and small, the more devils see us from afar, they do have sufficient time to prepare." ā€

"There's nothing wrong with that!" I smiled and said, "But what if the devil can't tell the difference between me and the enemy?" ā€

"Can't tell the difference between friend and foe?" Hearing this, the cadres couldn't help but be stunned.

"How is that possible!" Scar waved his head with a bitter face: "No matter how good our camouflage level is, no matter how familiar we are with Vietnamese...... There is only one exit here, and the more devils can't tell the difference between friend and foe? ā€

"Yes, battalion commander!" Liang Lianbing agreed: "This method is also ...... It's so adventurous! ā€

I believe that if it weren't for the fact that I had always been "wise and martial" in the past, the Liang Lianbing at this time would not have said "too risky" but "too stupid".

But it's not impossible.

"It's not possible under normal circumstances." I said, "But what if the Yue devils attack?" ā€

"When the Yue Devil attacks?"

"Yes!" I continued: "I believe that the Yue Devil will never give up so well, in case it is still dark. At this time, the T62, which has the ability to fight at night, can play a great role. The reason why their attack was repelled by us just now was just that they were accidentally ambushed. The next time their infantry were to pay attention to the cliffs and provide cover for the tanks, it would be very difficult for us to stop their advance. ā€

"Afraid of what?!" Liang Lianbing replied without thinking about it: "It's a big deal, just fight with them!" ā€

Scar patted the head of the Liang Lian soldier angrily: "It's not a question of being afraid or not, it's a matter of finding a way to break through!" ā€

Liang Lianbing touched his head in embarrassment and replied in a low voice, "I ...... This means that you are used to it, and you will slip out of it! ā€

With a "coax", the surrounding warriors all laughed.

I also shook my head with a wry smile.

"What does this have to do with our breakout?" Scar asked.

"To put it simply......," I continued, "it is very likely that the Vietnamese army will attack us like last time, so we will have a chance!" ā€

I pointed to the half-cliff on the map and said, "Here we are, halfway to the cliff." To the north are Vietnamese agents and an unknown number of Vietnamese troops, armed with tanks. On the south side is the Vietnamese militia, numbering more than 200 men, and its defenses are mostly aimed at helicopters that may come in. ā€

After thinking about it, I continued: "At this time, we can make two preparations, on the one hand, we can do what we like, let the helicopter Vietnamese militia appear around, and if there is nothing to do, we will shoot a shuttle of bullets, so as to increase the psychological pressure on the Vietnamese militia, and at the same time make their defense more biased towards helicopters and ignore half of the cliff!" On the other hand...... We're just waiting for the next attack! ā€

"Oh!" Hearing this, Scar understood a little: "The battalion commander wants to ...... The more devils who pretend to be successful or defeated? ā€

I nodded. said: "Our main force is secretly lurking on the cliff near the mountain pass, and when the Yue devils attack, we will let them go without saying a word." When the time comes. The helicopter unit launched an attack from a distance, and at the same time, we disguised the Vietnamese militia who had been defeated and took advantage of the chaos to launch an attack on the Vietnamese militia defense line! ā€

Everyone couldn't help but be stunned when they heard my bold plan, knowing that there was only a little accident in it...... For example, if we were found by the Yue devils lurking on the cliffs, or were discovered by the Vietnamese army when we rushed out of the mountain road, then we were the end of the total annihilation.

And even if this plan went very smoothly and we managed to break out of half of the cliff, it would be more than 200 people facing the Vietnamese army...... So it's actually a life of nine deaths.

After being silent for a while, Scar nodded and said, "Anyway, staying here is death, it's better to fight the devil and break the net!" ā€

"I agree!" Liang Lianbing agreed without thinking about it: "We will fight whatever the battalion commander says, and we can't be wrong if we follow the battalion commander!" ā€

"One more question!" Scar asked, "When we are lurking near the mountain crossing, how can we make the Yue Devils think that we are still holding out and continue to attack?" ā€

Scar asked the point, and I just sighed and stopped talking.

Because there is only one way, that is, to leave a small number of people to shoot guns and grenades in the middle of the mountain road, so that it is possible to make the Yue devils believe that our main force is still defending in the middle section.

I sighed like this, Scar, Liang Lianbing and the others quickly understood, after all, they were all people who rolled over from the battlefield, and of course it was necessary to do this, just like we stayed behind to cover the retreat of the large army.

"Battalion commander, I'll stay!" Liang Lianbing said: "I don't have other skills, but I still have the courage to fight with devils!" ā€

I didn't speak, and it wasn't appropriate to let the soldiers stay.

"No!" At this time, a squad leader with bandages on his hands got up and said: "Battalion commander, I think it is us wounded who should be left behind. My reasons are twofold...... One is that we, the wounded, have no way to climb the cliff independently without letting the more devils find out, and if we touch a stone or something, it is very likely that the whole operation will be exposed, and everyone will be in danger. The other is that the troops should be in the best state when they break through, and they must rush to the Wild Wolf Valley as quickly as possible after breaking through, and we, the wounded, will obviously become a burden to the troops! ā€

I didn't speak, because what the squad leader said was exactly what I was thinking.

"I disagree!" Liang Lianbing immediately objected: "If we want to go together, we won't leave you ...... anything."

"I agree!" I said through gritted teeth.

"Battalion Commander ......"

Liang Lianbing wanted to say something, but I raised my hand to stop him.

As a commander, all I have to think about is getting as many troops out as I can, rather than waiting for everyone to die here...... This plan is already difficult, if we break through with the wounded, then it is better to just stay here and kill a few more devils.

Scar looked at me with a complicated look in his eyes, but nodded in understanding.

"What's your name?" I asked the squad leader.

"Report to the battalion commander, Wang Changyong!"

I nodded with a heavy heart: "I won't say anything superfluous, leave something for your family, we will find a way to deliver it to them anyway!" ā€

"Yes!" Wang Changyong stepped forward, then turned around and walked to the gathering place of the wounded not far away.

At this time, there were a total of nine wounded, of which four were seriously wounded, and there were barely five people with some combat ability.

They saw this and quickly knew what was going on...... What I don't know is that in fact, they have been mentally prepared for this a long time, and some people even want to build yƬ for us to cover and others to withdraw, but because they thought that this mountain road was blocked and there was no way out, so they didn't say much.

Their idea is simple...... The result of everyone staying here is that everyone sacrifices together, so it is better to be able to rush out a few or a few.

But this idea is not simple, because it is equivalent to giving up the last bit of hope of living, even if it is only a little hope.

The wounded didn't say anything, just sorted out their equipment a little, and shook hands with their comrades-in-arms very calmly to say goodbye, and some even comforted their comrades-in-arms who were reluctant to stay...... This scene only makes people's hearts sour when they look at it, especially when I give this order, I feel even more like a sinner.

"It's the best option!" Scar patted me on the shoulder and said, "I know it's not easy for you to give this order, but you're right!" Comrades can understand! ā€

I didn't answer, what Scar didn't know was that at this time I didn't know that my comrades could understand...... They are all comrades-in-arms who have been born and died with me for many years, and of course they understand the reasons and difficulties I have done this.

What I really can't get over and can't forgive is actually myself...... At this moment, I felt that I was not much different from those more devils who killed each other.

But I had to do it, and maybe that's the difficulty of being a commander!

It didn't take long for the wounded to collect the belongings they had left for their families, some were letters, some were a pair of shoes that they hadn't had time to wear in a hurry, and some were a bloody military hat......

Wang Changyong handed over a note and said: "Battalion commander, this is the address of the soldiers, the comrades said, let the family bury these things as them!" In the next life, you will be a Chinese, and you will be your soldier! ā€

At this point, I couldn't hold back my tears.

What kind of soldiers are these, with such subordinates and comrades-in-arms, I don't know if it's my luck or the blessing of the country.

What is certain is that it is precisely because of such soldiers that our country can stand tall among the great powers; It is precisely with such soldiers that we can live a peaceful life in modern times; It is precisely this kind of soldier ...... The Chinese have completely taken off the hat of the sick man of East Asia.

I didn't say anything, just stood up in front of them and gave a military salute. (To be continued......)
