Chapter 206: Pre-War Preparations

"Good news, bad news!" I said, "Which one do you want to listen to first?" ”

"Good news!" Zhang Fan replied without thinking about it.

It is said that only optimistic people will subconsciously listen to the good news first, but I really don't know what else can make Zhang Fan optimistic in the current situation.

But then again, there's nothing wrong with being optimistic, at least it can make it easy for us to face reality, right?

"The good news is...... We're out of the jungle! I said.

"Really?" The female soldiers let out a burst of cheers, and only Xiao Chen and Xu Li looked at me with suspicious eyes.

"Xiao Yang, are you sure we're out of the jungle?" Xu Li asked: "I don't doubt your judgment, but I want to know the reason, so that I can have a bottom in my heart." ”

Xu Li was born in 50, she is the oldest among us, and she can be called the eldest sister. Her words also show the caution that is common in this era.

"Hmm!" I nodded, pointed to the top of my head and said, "The reason is the roof......

"Rooftop?" It was even more strange for everyone to say this, and they didn't know what this roof had to do with getting out of the jungle.

In fact, the reason is very simple......

"Because of the tiles on the roof!" I said, "You want to ...... This tile has to be fired by a brick cellar factory, and it is heavy and fragile, if this is a deep mountain and old forest, then who will have nothing to do to transport the tiles here! ”

"Oh!" That's when everyone understood.

"So......" I concluded, "I think we're not far from town, or we can just walk along the path at the foot of the hill and get to the nearby town!" ”

The female soldiers cheered again.

"And what about the bad news?" The female soldiers had long been so happy that they had gotten carried away. But only Xu Li still remembers this.

"The bad news is that the devils are about to catch up!"

"What?" These words were like pouring cold water on the female soldiers. Immediately, their excitement was poured out.

"That's right!" looked at Xu Li's puzzled gaze. Without waiting for her to ask, she explained, "On the march...... I noticed that birds would fly behind me from time to time, and it should be the Vietnamese pursuers following our tracks! ”

In fact, I had been paying attention to the situation behind me, and I had already noticed that someone was following me, but I didn't say anything because I was worried that the female soldiers would panic.

After a moment of silence, they quickly said:

"Then what are we waiting for, let's go!"

"yes, go and join the main force!"

……

I shook my head and said, "Here's what I think...... The Vietnamese pursuers are not far from us, and we are afraid that they will not be able to catch up with us in less than ten minutes. So instead of being chased on the road. It's better to wait for them here. ”

Xiao Chen also agreed and said: "I agree!" The Devils marched much faster than we did, and they knew the terrain well and cut corners, in case they came ahead of us to set up an ambush or catch up with us...... Then we'll ......."

Needless to say, everyone knows what the ending will be.

"That's why I want to fight here!" I looked at the sky and said, "As long as we hold out until dark, it will not be so easy for the devils to know our situation, and it will be easier to retreat then!" ”

My idea is that it is impossible for the Yue devils to maintain an offensive posture all the time, so if they don't attack...... We don't know if there's anyone in this hut when it's dark, which means if we get out of the battle at the right time...... It is very likely that the Vietnamese army did not notice our retreat and gave us time to escape.

In fact, I have another idea, that is, let Xiao Chen and I stop the Vietnamese army here and let the female soldiers retreat.

But I knew that the female soldiers would not want to do this. Second, I felt that the combat effectiveness of the female soldiers was too poor, and it was also full of danger to let them go to an unknown road. After all, even the common people in Vietnam have weapons. So Zuihou still thinks it's safer to wait until it's dark.

"I also agree with Platoon Commander Yang's plan!" Xu Li nodded, clenched her fist and said, "Then what are you waiting for, let's prepare for battle to meet the arrival of the enemy!" ”

I have to admit that I am a little uncomfortable with Xu Li's tone, but I can understand it, after all, she grew up during the ten years of turmoil, and it is strange that she does not have a little bit of the atmosphere of that era.

So the preparation work soon began, and it was actually the bags of fertilizer that were transported and stacked...... A few bags were piled up on the ridge line of the hilltop position, where there were very haode sniper positions and grenades were thrown; A few bags were piled up in front of the windows and at the door of the hut, and although the windows were covered by an earthen wall, the earthen wall was too thin to be beaten.

Anyway, this bag of fertilizer is really easy to use to build fortifications, and it is a very haode bunker wherever you stack it, and even later I made a few holes in the roofs of these rooms...... Then they put the fertilizer on the roof, and then used a table and stool to use it as a wooden ladder, so that a suspended sniper position was done.

The only downside to it...... It is the fortifications built up by these bags of things that are easy to break, and the machine gun bullets swept up in a row, although they could not penetrate at that time, but once the bags were broken, the contents would leak out. It was for this reason that each sniper station had to prepare a few more bags of fertilizer for repairs, but fortunately there was a lot of fertilizer in this house, and the female soldiers also worked with us, so it didn't take long to get ready.

Zuihou looked at the terrain outside the house, and when I returned to the house, I noticed several female soldiers smiling at me.

"What's wrong?" I asked, confused.

"Nothing!" Zhang Fan replied: "Sister Xu and Xiao Chen are praising you, saying that you are cool-headed and thoroughly analyzed......

"That's not it yet!" I responded generously: "Isn't this a jade tree that is chic and dignified in the wind!" ”

"Beautiful yours!" Zhang Fan grabbed a biscuit and threw it over, only to make the female soldiers laugh.

"Platoon Commander Yang!" After laughing for a while, Xiao Chen sighed: "Seriously...... I heard that you are also a sharpshooter, and I want to compare my marksmanship with you in the morning......"

I understand this, everyone who has two hands in marksmanship has a little arrogance in their bones, and they don't admit defeat without a few strokes, just like Huashan on the sword in martial arts novels.

"But I didn't expect ......"

"We're not comparable, are we?" I said, "Surrendered so quickly?" ”

"Do you need to compare?" Xiao Chen smiled self-deprecatingly: "Your analysis of the terrain and the analysis of the situation just now...... There were also early morning notices that there were pursuers behind him...... I can't admit defeat! ”

"That's not right!"

"What's wrong?" The crowd was a little puzzled by my answer, and I was about to speak, but I raised my hand to stop me.

"The devil is coming!" My words immediately made everyone nervous.

Then I immediately assigned the task: "I and the small formation will defend in the first line, and the others will retreat to the second line!" ”

"Yes!" Although Xu Li was a little reluctant to be assigned to the second line by me, she also knew that this was not the time to be reckless, so she had to answer the call and retreat to the back row of the house with the female soldiers.

I have my own reasons for this arrangement, you must know that although the AK47 has a lot of firepower, the firepower of this thing is completely stacked with bullets, in the case of only one and no bullet supply...... Those magazines were finished in a few seconds, so it didn't work at all when they were placed on the front line, but only when the Yue devils rushed through the front line and were in front of our eyes, they could provide us with some fire assistance.

So there is no doubt that in the case of insufficient ammunition, the 56 will be better than the AK, after all, it has an accurate head and less ammunition consumption, right?

With a sniper rifle, I ran to the window and set up the sniper rifle to look out, and sure enough, I saw a group of Vietnamese soldiers divided into two parts and outflanked the hut where we were. Seeing that they were all holding guns as if they were facing a great enemy, it was obvious that they knew that we were hiding in this house.

I think they must have judged this from the "sandbags" in front of and behind the house.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat...... The vigilance just now was too low, and if the more devils took advantage of our inattention to set up mortars on the open ground and bombarded us, then all the arrangements just now plus our lives would not have been wiped out.

But fortunately, these Yue devils don't seem to have brought mortars...... This is easy to understand, knowing that the troops at the front often carry only small arms of small weight, if mortars, in order to speed things up...... Then one person had to carry the base, the other had to carry the cannon body, and one or two people had to carry the cannonballs, and such equipment was undoubtedly difficult to walk in the jungle.

So the Vietnamese army missed this opportunity to easily blow us up in the house.

The number of Vietnamese troops who came up in this batch was small, only seven in total, three on the left and four on the right...... They walked cautiously, moving forward on guard as they went, as if they didn't want to alarm us.

But all this they did was in vain, we condescended to see everything in our eyes, and in my sniper scope I could even see the dirt on the face of the devil......

Although these devils were already in my range, I still didn't give the order to shoot.

The reason is that I am not the only one on the battlefield...... Xiao Chen used the 56 and a half, and although the range of the 56 and a half was 400 meters, the best firing distance was within 300 meters. It's not that I can't solve these seven Yue devils by myself, but I hope that Xiao Chen can practice his hands and let him enter the battle state as soon as possible.

At this time, I have learned one thing from the previous battlefield, that is, combat is never something that can be provoked by one person, and if you want to win a battle, you must play the role of a team!

So, I waited patiently for the Vietnamese soldiers who were staring at the sniper scope until they were three hundred meters into the ...... (To be continued......)
