Affected by the mentality of the soldiers, the whole journey was easy and pleasant, and the soldiers chatted day and night in the carriage, and even some fighters began to brag because of the swelling of self-confidence in this victory.

It's like there was a soldier in our carriage called "The King", who always said that he had hit several enemies on the battlefield and exploded several tanks with anti-tank missiles...... Some of this is indeed true, this "king" surname is Wang, because he loves to brag so the soldiers named him "king", which has the potential meaning of "cowhide king".

I don't know if he clearly understands the meaning of this nickname, anyway, he took it over happily.

He was a soldier of a company...... In fact, most of the self-confidence is also the soldiers of the first company, let's be from the second company...... We have experienced such dangers and such victories several times, and this time it is not strange, and how can we say that we are also heroes who have been in the newspaper, been interviewed by Shou, and made reports in Beijing.

It's a bit like "back to basics"...... At the beginning, when there was no fame and fortune, I would try to pursue fame and fortune, and when I caught it, I felt that it was like that...... No amount of fame and fortune can give us one more life on the battlefield, so in the end it will be in vain.

If you have this understanding, then you don't care about fame and fortune at all, such as on the train...... The soldiers of the second company are all closing their eyes to recuperate, or turning on the flashlight to open a few card games, chess games and other pastimes.

But the soldiers of other units are different, which includes a company, an engineer company, a mortar company, and even an artillery company...... The reason is that they have not previously achieved such a big victory in this situation. So after this big victory, it is inevitable that I will feel a little complacent. So the speech is naturally exaggerated.

Because it's someone who has come over. So I know it in my heart...... They are used to this kind of thing after a few more times, so they don't say much, not to mention that they do play well, and they should let them blow it to satisfy some vanity.

However, the soldiers knew one thing in their hearts, that is, the greatest credit always belonged to the battalion commander...... So I always blew and blew on my head, and said a lot of things like the battalion commander was well trained and commanded, but I couldn't cry or laugh a little, and Zhang Fan was always full of joy at this time...... It's as if others are praising me and praising her.

One of the most exciting things for the fighters. And the sound coming from the radio......

As usual, we listen to the "Voice of America...... At this point in the war, everyone knew in their hearts that this was no longer an "enemy Taiwan", and even everyone vaguely knew in their hearts that this former enemy was likely to be an ally now...... For this point, the superiors did not do publicity, and this era is not very good, and everyone tacitly did not dare to take out the things that the superiors did not publicize and did not have clear instructions. Doing it secretly is ...... Others don't see it.

This may also be because they have been scared all over the world in the past ten years, so everyone has a feeling in their hearts that "they are not afraid of 10,000 but are afraid of what if" and "it is always good to be careful", so everyone does not openly discuss "US imperialism", but everyone loves to listen to "Voice of America" because it has content...... What this radio station says is more objective, and after listening to it, we can at least understand how a battle was fought on the front line. Domestic radio bar...... It's all about how brave you are, how you kill the enemy, how you can sing and cry, and every battle seems to be poured out of a mold. After listening to it for a long time, I still don't know who wins and who loses......

In addition, it was Banwang's message that was broadcast at this time, so the soldiers quieted down and listened with their ears pricked up, and Xiao Liu also turned up the volume to the maximum very cleverly, so the baritone with some noise on the radio sounded in the "clang" of the railroad tracks: "This battle of Banwang can be said to be a stroke of genius on the Chinese side...... We have every reason to believe that this is the Chinese side's combination of foreign 'lightning tactics' and its own 'interspersed tactics' and 'guerrilla tactics', and then through the coordination of good infantry, tank, and artillery, the Vietnamese troops have been surrounded in the same place again and again for annihilation......

I felt a little strange when I heard this, are there so many tactics? And is it still surrounded in the same place?

But it's really right to think about it...... This time it is interspersed with armored forces, so naturally it can be said that it is a combination of "blitzkrieg" and "interspersed encirclement", as for the "guerrilla tactics...... It should be said that we eliminated the tank units of the Vietnamese army by maneuvering with armored vehicles.

encircled in the same place at this point...... Even I didn't realize it before, and all the battlefields were in or near Tongmian after several battles...... So this is true, it is true that the Vietnamese army is surrounded in the same place.

From this point of view...... I'm really a bit confused by the authorities, but the Yankees look at this battle more clearly from the perspective of a third person.

Then the radio station went on to make a lot of comments about the battle...... It is said that both China and Vietnam fought well, but the Chinese army was obviously superior, and the tactics and coordination of the Chinese army obviously did not expect the Vietnamese army, so it suffered a big loss, and Zuihou ended the battle with the Vietnamese army losing Banwang and losing a large number of personnel and equipment, and the ace division of the 320th Division also lost face......

The radio station zuihou also added: The most mysterious thing is that the Chinese army has not announced the number of this mechanized unit interspersed with Tongmian, is it a special force secretly formed by the Chinese side?

The soldiers couldn't help but laugh out loud when they heard this.

"Looks like the Yankees' spy satellites aren't doing much either!" Xiao Liu smiled: "It's not that they haven't found out which unit we are!" ”

I couldn't help but laugh when I heard this...... Even the number can be found out that it is a spy, not a satellite...... Clearly, the fighters are confusing the two.

This "Voice of America" report can be regarded as a summary of our actions against Banwang, and at the same time, it also made me understand that the United States at this time actually attached great importance to the contradictions between China and Vietnam and their future development, for the simple reason that this may be directly related to the strength of containing the Soviet Union.

Then the train went back and forth for more than ten days...... At this time, I somewhat understood that Commander Zhang Weishenme would even give us time to rest, and let us get on the train directly...... It's rest on the train, in addition to eating and sleeping all day long, when you wake up, it's okay to chat with the mountains, and there are scenery to see along the way, and there is no train anywhere!

If these are peaceful people, it is a tiring journey, and when they arrive at their destination, they have to "catch the wind and wash the dust...... But for those of us who go to war, it's a pleasure.

So, when we were on a train and an armored car, we rushed back to the Beijing base all the way...... As soon as he landed, he was called by Commander Zhang.

This time, I took Zhang Fan with me regardless of whether Commander Zhang wanted to or not, after all, Zhang Fan was his daughter, and she also went to the battlefield, so I haven't seen him for so long......

But the result still surprised me a little, Commander Zhang seemed to be more interested in me than Zhang Fan...... As soon as he came up, he patted me on the shoulder and said, "Good boy! I really let you win, this time no one else has anything to say! What do you think? What are your thoughts on this battle? ”

I knew that Commander Zhang must have known the details of this battle from other channels, so I didn't say much about the process, and after thinking about it, I said: "There are not too many ideas in other places, that is, in terms of equipment...... I think we are too far apart from the USSR! ”

"Hmm!" Commander Zhang nodded with a heavy expression: "I think so too, our fifteen tanks can't stop five T62s, and our army still has infantry coordination...... In other words, this is not a training problem, but the gap in equipment performance is too large! Moreover, the Soviet T62 was still developed and finalized in 62...... It's been almost twenty years now, and for the USSR it was all something that was going to be eliminated, but for us it was still an advanced thing! In the future, if the Soviet Union increases its arms assistance to Vietnam......"

I understand Commander Zhang's concerns, although we are not worried that the Soviet Union will be directly involved in this war...... Not to mention that no matter whether the United States will help China or not, if the Soviet Union decides to participate in this war, it will be tantamount to admitting defeat in competition with the United States. After all, China is also a big country, and even if the north and the south are not careful, they will fall into the mud and will not be able to get out, so the United States will naturally be happy to watch the Soviet Union weaken like this.

But the Soviet Union will continue to provide advanced equipment to Vietnam, and even help the Vietnamese army to upgrade, just as they are now helping Vietnam form mechanized infantry divisions.

But I'm not worried about that...... The reason is that there is also an Afghanistan!

"Commander Zhang......" I didn't think about it and said: "Isn't there still an Afghanistan on the Soviet side?" Their assistance to Vietnam will not go much further! ”

"Afghanistan?" Hearing this, Commander Zhang couldn't help but look at me in surprise: "How can Afghanistan contain the Soviet Union?" ”

I couldn't help but be stunned when I heard this, I just remember that the Soviet Union in history was held back by Afghanistan, so it couldn't let go of helping Vietnam...... But looking at Commander Zhang like this, it seems that Afghanistan has no thoughts at all, has the Soviet Union's invasion of Afghanistan not started yet?

Later, I realized that I had made a mistake on the spur of the moment...... The Soviet Union only launched its invasion of Afghanistan in December '79, which means that it was still more than two months away. (To be continued......)
