Chapter 187: Frontier Steel 7th Company (2)

At this point, the superiors were in a dilemma.

The superiors also knew that there must be a situation for the Yue devils to set up mortars at this time...... They knew that as long as they hit the artillery, our artillery shells would immediately follow, so it was obvious that they had found some important target, so they were willing to exchange mortars and the lives of these Vietnamese soldiers.

But is this to fight or not to fight?

Let's fight! That would indeed solve the crisis at hand. However, this is very likely to mean that the Seventh Company of the Frontier Defense will be exposed in advance, and at this time, our army's attack on the east mountain of the Bali River is not ready, and it can even be said that it is not only not ready, but this preparation has not even been seen due to the pressure from the Laoshan side.

Don't fight! What if this causes a huge loss? Isn't the defense of the old mountain worse yet?!

Time was pressing, and the superiors didn't have time to think about it, so they made a decision after weighing it: fight!

It was the artillery battalion of our synthetic battalion that opened fire...... The artillery battalion of the composite battalion was used as a cover for the Seventh Frontier Company, and the guns were turned to the direction of Dongshan of the Bali River, and the coordinates provided by the Seventh Frontier Company were adjusted to Zhuyuan.

Not only did Zhu Yuan not only adjust it, but also conducted two test launches.

If you want to say that this test shot this thing, sometimes there is still a point of exquisiteness.

As we are doing now, if they blatantly carry out a test launch under the guidance of the 7th Frontier Company, it will obviously not work, because it will make the Vietnamese army suspect that there are Chinese scouts watching them nearby, so they will search the area around the position.

But you can't shoot without a test shot, because if something happens, then you have to hit the starter. For example, in the current situation...... If you don't hit the first shot, you have to test shoot and guide. I'm afraid that the shells of the mortar of the Yue devil would have blown up our army's ammunition vehicle and even shifted its position long ago. Then we might as well simply use the artillery sight radar to track the Vietnamese artillery shells and complete the adjustment faster.

Artillery, of course, will have an artillery approach.

Wu Dengxiong quickly gave an idea, that is, the target of the test launch was not the 1019 height, but a nearby high ground, and the interval between the shells was still very long, so the Vietnamese army mistakenly thought that this was just a cold cannon of Chinese soldiers...... At this time, the battle in the direction of Laoshan was already in full swing, and it was not surprising that a few cold cannons would hit the east mountain of the Bali River.

Therefore, according to the offset of these shells and the distance between the two heights, Wu Dengxiong and others were able to calculate how to adjust the shells that hit the 1019 heights.

Thereupon. When an order from the higher authorities came down, the artillery battalion fired shells before the Viet Nam mortars were fired.

Later, according to the memories of the soldiers of the Seventh Company, at this time, the mortars of the Vietnamese army had just adjusted Zhuyuan and were ready to fire a batch of shells...... It is understandable that the Vietnamese army needs such a long time to adjust Zhu Yuan, firstly, because the Vietnamese army knows that they are likely to have only one chance to open artillery, so it is necessary to ask for the first shot. Second, the target of the Vietnamese bombing was the car of our army's transport team, and the car was mobile, so it was difficult to hit the first shot.

The method taken by the Vietnamese army is ...... They are not aiming at cars, but at roads. A section of the road that the car had to pass through and within the range of their artillery control.

It's a good way to do that, the problem is that they have to wait...... After aiming, you have to wait for the car to drive up.

It was during this time that the Vietnamese artillery waited. Our artillery battalion opened fire first.

"Boom ......" Wu Dengxiong fired twenty shells in one go.

These shells hit quite accurately, because I heard the communicator of the 7th Company shouting excitedly on the walkie-talkie: "Well hit, the first hit, the devil mortars are all over!" ”

The exact result of this shelling was that six mortars of the Vietnamese army were destroyed, and more than 10 mortar gunners and Vietnamese soldiers carrying ammunition were killed.

More importantly, this shelling prevented a catastrophe for our transport convoy...... The Vietnamese army agents have found out that this transport convoy is transporting ammunition, but because our army's defense is quite tight and cannot be attacked, they want to use mortars to create a chain explosion on the highway bridge, but fortunately their conspiracy did not succeed, otherwise it would not only be a problem of losing more than 10 truckloads of ammunition, but also may cause the highway bridge to be blown up and seriously affect the logistics supply of our army.

But then the fighters of the 7th Frontier Company were in trouble.

It was clear that the Vietnamese army had realized that something was wrong at this time...... How did the Chinese soldiers know that they had set up mortars on the heights? You must know that they are on the ground at an altitude of 1,019 meters, and they are still mortars set up in the grass and trenches, even if the Chinese soldiers have "new telescopes", it is impossible to find out the situation here so quickly.

So don't think about it, it must be an artillery observer with Chinese soldiers lurking nearby.

At first, the Vietnamese army thought so, that is, they thought that there were only a few scouts or artillery observers of Chinese soldiers lurking nearby, so they were very relieved to send more than a dozen Vietnamese soldiers out to search.

But they soon find out that they were wrong, and very wrong......

According to the later description of the soldiers of the 7th Frontier Company, the Vietnamese army soon sent 13 people to leave the position and search for the high ground where the 7th Company was lurking.

Although the warriors knew that they could no longer hide, they still held on to a glimmer of hope that they could continue to lurk...... They hoped to buy a little more time for the main force, although they had had enough of this latent suffering, and would rather jump out and fight the Yue devils happily.

With this in mind, the fighters did not get up, and on the one hand, they continued to lurk and on the other hand informed us that the artillery battalion for which they were covering was ready for battle, and at the same time they themselves were ready for battle.

As we expected, the Vietnamese devils would not give up if their search was unsuccessful, and they poked their bayonets all the way to the lurking position of the Seventh Company, until the Vietnamese army forced three meters into the hiding place of the Seventh Company...... The commander of the seventh company knew that he would not be able to fight again at this time, so he came out of his hand and pulled the trigger at the enemy with a gun.

The Yue devils originally thought that they were only searching for a few artillery observers, but they never dreamed that more than 100 people would come to the grass and brush up...... So I was stunned on the spot.

Of course, the Vietnamese army is also a veteran, and in this case, they will still reflexively raise their guns to shoot. But of course, our soldiers would not let them have this opportunity, and before they could make a move, they were beaten into a sieve.

"Fire!" That's when I knew it was time to fire.

So soon another artillery fire went up, and then immediately ordered the artillery fire to extend to the depth of the Vietnamese army...... This is also the time to sue the seventh company to charge. (To be continued......)
