Chapter 220: Tear Up
Like some fighters say......
"In the countryside, we don't even have electricity, and our family is poor...... I was reluctant to light an oil lamp, so what else could I do at night but sleep? If you have a daughter-in-law, you can have a pastime......"
Hearing this, I couldn't help but lean in my heart...... No wonder people in this era are so good at having children, it seems that home appliances and entertainment are still part of Jihua's fertility!
This lasted for more than ten hours, when the sky was bright...... Anyway, I was able to hold out until this point, and I was already fighting with my eyelids, and I don't know how many times I bit my tongue to stay awake and not let myself fall asleep.
That's what lurks this thing...... I used to be like this when I was lurking in the 581 Heights, but now I haven't suffered for a while in the office command, so my ability on the battlefield has regressed a bit.
This made me secretly wary, because I knew that there would be a lot of going to war in the future...... If there is a decrease in combat effectiveness, it will not be a good thing for anyone.
Just as I was struggling, there were suddenly a few imperceptible "Xixi" sounds behind me...... I couldn't help but be overjoyed and surprised at the same time...... The Vietnamese agents really chose the 261 heights as the breakthrough point, but to my surprise, the snipers didn't guess the two routes correctly! This led directly to the Vietnamese army appearing behind me......
Where behind us is a dead spot for snipers? I couldn't figure it out...... I've also carefully observed the terrain in this area, so I agree with the sniper's judgment. But our judgment was clearly wrong...... Because Vietnamese agents have already appeared behind us.
That's not good...... I couldn't help frowning, we are all facing away from the Vietnamese agents now, and we will be discovered if we move. Or the Vietnamese army will be found if they come up and step on someone. If we are discovered, we will be at a disadvantage...... At that time, let alone surround and annihilate these Vietnamese agents. I'm afraid that even we ourselves will suffer heavy casualties.
However, I was soon relieved because I found that the Vietnamese agents were advancing along the ditches used for irrigation by the people......
I have to admit that this is a good way to do it...... The ditch was covered with weeds, and it was difficult for a sniper to spot movement in the dark of night, whether a sniper would see the area or not, and it wouldn't make too much noise...... As long as the Vietnamese army agents block the ditch upstream or divert it in advance...... Who cares if there is water in the ditch? So a natural communication trench was placed in front of the Vietnamese agents...... They don't need to worry about whether there are enemy snipers watching around here.
However, the Vietnamese army agents still had a bad move...... They didn't realize that we were already lurking here, just waiting for them to be caught.
So I just waited for the Vietnamese agents to keep crawling forward in the ditch...... The sound they make is small, but because we are close to the gutter, we can still hear the sound of them crawling and breathing heavily...... It seems that they have been crawling in this ditch for some time, otherwise they would not have been tired like this with the quality of Vietnamese army agents.
At this time, the crawling of the Vietnamese army agents suddenly stopped...... I couldn't help but be surprised. Could it be that they have discovered something? At this moment, I almost felt the urge to give the order to fight...... But Zuihou endured it anyway!
Later, when I thought about it, I was glad that the battle did not start at this time, and the ditch occupied by the Vietnamese army can be said to be a natural trench, and it is also a trench overgrown with thatch.
This scared a few of the guards around me to the ground...... Their fear has two meanings, one is because of their own safety...... This is normal, no one on the battlefield will really see death as home. The other was concerned about my safety and that of the correspondent...... You must know that we can be said to be the battalion headquarters and the command center of this battle, in case the Vietnamese army agents rush out like this...... The first to be destroyed by mistake was our command center!
In this respect...... Our miscalculation of the direction of the Vietnamese army did bring considerable variables to this operation.
This variable caused the guards to clench their submachine guns and keep throwing inquiring glances at me...... I know what they mean by that, and they want to be the first to attack. This will at least protect the security of the battalion headquarters. But I quickly stopped them by shaking my head slightly.
The next second I knew I had made the right decision, because there were already a few calls from the gutter...... So I knew. This is the Vietnamese army agents in contact with the front-line troops, to help them force through our defense line. It doesn't seem to be too far away from the time for them to do it.
They chose the right time...... It was almost dawn when they reached the mouth of the valley, and the fog and visibility of the canyon were thick, which was just the right time for them to launch a surprise attack on the canyon.
Sure enough, I soon heard gunfire on the other side of the canyon, followed by several more cannon shots......
This is not to say that the Vietnamese army in front is attacking our army, but to shoot some cold guns and cannons to cover up the sound of Vietnamese agents breaking through.
At the same time, the noise in the gutter is even louder...... The Vietnamese army took advantage of the sound of gunfire to speed up and move in the direction of the canyon, but they didn't know that we were lurking around them, so the "crackling" sound in the ditch clearly broke into our ears, and I could even tell how many people passed by me from this sound.
But...... The more the Vietnamese army did this, the more relieved I became, because their approach to the canyon along the ditch meant that they had entered our encirclement.
Eventually, there was no more sound in the ditch around me, and my hanging heart was put down.
I turned on the walkie-talkie and blew a few long and short breaths into the microphone...... This is the haode code that I agreed with the reconnaissance company in advance, because considering that the Vietnamese army agents are likely to be near us when they appear, it is impossible to transmit information by calling, which will only expose themselves prematurely, so the code is a very haode choice.
Then I used the same method to give orders to the agents to get them ready for battle......
Before the two platoon commanders could respond, they saw the Vietnamese army agents covered in mud scurrying out of the ditch one after another, grabbing their guns like rats and swooping down on the canyon.
Almost at the same time, rows of mortar shells exploded in the canyon with a whistling sound...... It was an airburst bomb, and you could tell it by seeing the smoke that burst out of the canyon in mid-air.
I couldn't help but marvel at the almost seamless coordination between the Vietnamese agents......
If this were in normal times...... Our army thought that it would be almost enough to lay mines in the canyon or get a few sentries and then block it with firepower, but after this mortar burst of airburst shells, the shock wave that exploded in mid-air and the shrapnel that scattered flowers to the heavenly maiden were afraid that they could detonate a large area of mines, not to mention the sentries in it, as for the fire blockade...... The fog and smoke were too dark to make it impossible to see where people were.
So it's really possible for them to break through if they're not careful......
But now it's different, because the reconnaissance company is lurking at the valley pass, and it's also facing the direction of the Vietnamese army to arrange crossfire!
Watching the Vietnamese army rush to the valley mouth, I did not immediately give the order to start the battle, but gave the order to seal the gap in the encirclement through the micro-walkie-talkie...... This gap was left for the Vietnamese army to come in before, but it didn't work because it was miscalculated in the direction, but this gap still had to be sealed.
Because the Vietnamese army focused all their attention on the narrow valley in front of them, and because our army's movements were not large, the Vietnamese army agents did not find that the retreat behind them had been blocked, and still rushed towards the canyon with their guns......
Company Commander Zhang can be regarded as enduring, because at this time, the vanguard of the Vietnamese army has almost run in front of them...... But because I didn't give the order, he didn't start fighting!
But this doesn't seem surprising...... The heads of the border defense units also know that the Vietnamese army agents are not easy to mess with, so the soldiers of this reconnaissance team are naturally also carefully selected veterans, so it is not surprising that they will have such patience and determination.
"Hit!" Zuihou did not give the order to start fighting until the Vietnamese army was about to rush into the gorge.
So in the grass on both sides of the valley and behind the stones, rows of soldiers wearing straw hats and weeds suddenly appeared......
After a burst of gunfire, the Vietnamese army was knocked down on the spot, but the Vietnamese army agents were also well-trained agents, and they realized that they had been ambushed at the first time...... At first, I thought they would choose to retreat, but instead of retreating, they concentrated Liliang to counterattack and break through the canyon with all their might.
This was indeed unexpected, but when I thought about it later, I felt that the reaction of the Vietnamese army was very reasonable...... Since you have been ambushed, it means that the enemy must be surrounded on all sides, and it is also useless to retreat, and it is even possible to encounter a stronger enemy, so it is better to break through from the front with a desperate gamble...... There's a silver lining to this.
So the Vietnamese army and the reconnaissance company started a fight...... As soon as we had time to fire a shuttle of bullets, the Vietnamese agents threw a row of grenades with great tacit understanding, and then rushed forward in the smoke of the grenades to engage in hand-to-hand combat with the reconnaissance company.
At this time, it is useless for our main forces, because the Vietnamese army and our army have already scuffled together, and we can't tell who is who at all. (To be continued......)
