Chapter 187: Highway Bridge
Chapter 187 Highway Bridge
"Yes!" The sentries on the other side of the bridge knew what was happening when they heard my order, so they hurriedly ordered the soldiers to cross the highway bridge.
The "suspected Vietnamese soldiers" also obviously sensed that something was wrong with the situation, and after glancing at each other, they quickened their pace and hurried to the bridge.
Seeing that they were only a hundred meters away from our retreating troops, I raised my sniper rifle without further hesitation.
"Second Platoon Leader!" Company Commander Zhang stopped me a little nervously and said, "Are you sure they are more devils?" What if I hit the wrong person? ”
I didn't say anything, and I didn't have time to explain at this time, because once I let the Yue devils into my retreating troops, the consequences would be unimaginable. So he pushed it away, and the company commander Zhang raised his gun and shot at the "suspected Vietnamese army".
"Bang!" With a bang, a bullet struck a stone a meter in front of the Vietnamese troops, and the burst of rubble immediately stopped their advance.
Of course, I knew that everything before was just my guess, and I wasn't going to make a decision based on speculation alone, so this shot was just a warning.
"What part are you from?" I shouted at the soldiers.
"We are from the third battalion of the 445th regiment!" One of the soldiers at the head of the group replied in fluent Chinese.
"Weishenme is only withdrawing now?" I asked again.
"We've got separated from the army, we've gotten lost in the jungle, and we've just come out!"
"Who is your leader?" I still won't let up.
"Regiment Commander Wang Gangquan, Battalion Commander Li Liangzhong ......"
The answers were seamless, and even the people I didn't ask gave me answers.
But this was already what I expected. The activities of Vietnamese army agents were rampant. Therefore, it is not too easy to know who the regiment commander is in our army, and who the battalion commander is.
However, at this time, Company Commander Zhang next to him whispered: "Something is wrong. The commander of the third battalion died in battle...... A few days ago, it was replaced by the deputy battalion commander Wu Jiaqing, and we cooperated with this unit in the battle, so it is clear! ”
Another fighter whispered an explanation: "Could it be that they got separated, so I don't know." ”
I then asked, "Who is your commander......
I didn't understand the soldiers around me when I asked this, if this Yue devil knew who the regiment commander was, and who the battalion commander was, would he not know who the division commander was?
I'm sure they know the answer, but I can't help it even if they make up a name, because I don't even know who the commander of the division is.
But that's not what I'm trying to do...... At this time, the retreating troops of our army were still on the bridge, and if they were fought, they would undoubtedly suffer casualties. These casualties are completely avoidable, all I have to do is ask some questions that the devils can answer to stabilize them.
Sure enough, the soldier at the head responded: "Our division commander is called Zhang Zhongyi, and the political commissar is called Xu Minsheng...... Comrade, are you going a little too far? ”
"I'm sorry, comrade?" I used this to say haha to them: "No way...... The activities of the Vietnamese army agents are rampant, and we can't do it if we are not careful! ”
"Can we go over now?" The soldier at the head was a little impatient.
I looked at the bridge and saw that the troops were almost finished, so I laughed: "No problem, comrade! Just answer one more question...... What are the names of your parents? ”
With a coax, the soldiers laughed out loud.
The soldier looked at the empty highway bridge and realized that I had fallen for it. But now they are completely exposed to the guns of our army, so they are neither retreating nor advancing.
However, the guy at the head doesn't seem to give up. Or it can also be said that he is holding on to the hope of zuihou, he pretended to be calm and said with an unhappy look: "Comrade, what do you mean by this? ”
"Otherwise!" I said, "Just lay down your weapons and come empty-handed, and I won't embarrass you. ”
Now I can basically be sure that they are more devils, not to mention that even if they are not more devils but their own people, then there will be no difficulty in doing so, at most we will apologize to them then.
The Vietnamese soldier at the head was so angry that his face turned red and white, and after a long while, he gritted his teeth and stared at me hatefully and said, "Okay, I'm just weird...... How did you manage to recognize us from such a distance? ”
"Last night I knew you were hiding on the opposite hill!" I replied lightly.
"Last night? No way!!! ”
"It's true!" Company Commander Luo said: "It's just that your chief is too careless, and he dares to use a telescope to observe our army's position unscrupulously in the moonlight, the second platoon commander is a sniper, and he perceives the light reflected by the lens......"
The Vietnamese army led by me looked at the sniper rifle in my hand, and then realized that what I said was true, and at the same time his face was helpless: at this moment, he realized that what they thought was a secret operation had been exposed as early as last night, and their unit was even more from the net.
"Surrender!" I said, "You won't have a chance, we Chinese soldiers treat prisoners leniently." ”
"Okay, let's surrender!" The Vietnamese soldier at the head of the team picked up the gun on his shoulder as he spoke, but when he was about to put the rifle on the ground, he suddenly rolled on the ground and was about to pull the trigger when he raised the gun......
"Bang!" That's when the rifle in my hand rang out.
I had long understood his intentions in his eyes, and at the same time I knew that it was impossible for these Vietnamese troops to surrender...... It's not that they don't want to, I'm sure anyone who is hesitant in the face of life and death will think about what to choose. But they don't have any other choice, because ...... On the opposite heights, there were other Vietnamese troops, whose fire had blocked the road bridge.
Some people may say that since their fire has blocked the highway bridge, then Weishenme will let the retreating troops of our army come over? Do you want to send an extra force to send you to die?
The reason for this is also very simple, the purpose of the Vietnamese army is not to kill a few more enemies, but to be able to control the highway bridge and prevent our army from blowing it up.
As I killed the Vietnamese troops led by me with one shot, the various weapons in the hands of the soldiers soon rang out. The Vietnamese army only had about 20 people, while our side was an engineer unit and an infantry unit, plus the retreating troops had 300 people, and as soon as the weapon fired, it flew towards the Vietnamese army like a dense swarm of bees......
However, this does not seem to be a good thing, because everyone knows that it doesn't take so many bullets to kill so many people...... Simply because the sapper units were too strained.
This is not? Even though the 20 or so Vietnamese soldiers had already been beaten to pulp, there were still many soldiers who were pulling the trigger and sweeping all the way until the magazines were empty......
This seems a bit incredible, but it is very normal for non-combat troops such as sappers, and our total number of troops is more than 200,000, isn't it? Although they all participated in the war, there are still many people who have not even seen a living Yue devil from the time they participated in the war to the time they withdrew their troops.
Then, with the complete unpreparedness of our troops, a sharp whistling suddenly sounded in the sky.
"Get down...... Get down quickly...... "I only heard a few shouts from Company Commander Luo, followed by a deafening explosion. It is clear that this is long-range artillery fire from the Vietnamese army.
Almost at the same time, hundreds of disguised Vietnamese devils suddenly stood up in the grass on the opposite high ground, and they first raised their guns and fired a volley of bullets at us, and then immediately divided dozens of Vietnamese soldiers to shoot at us and approach the highway bridge.
And the troops on our positions are chaotic, especially those fighters who have just retreated...... Most of them were sappers with no combat experience, and they were running around the position as soon as the artillery fire hit them, and many of them even squeezed into the Haode trenches we had built......
On the battlefield, sometimes a large number of people is not necessarily large, for example, now, too many people are blocking our guns, blocking our side, so that we simply cannot organize an effective defense.
Seeing this, I couldn't help but secretly complain: This is a Jihua attack by the Vietnamese army, although the Vietnamese army we are facing cannot carry heavy weapons because they have to march in the jungle, but ...... As I see now, they can call in remote artillery support via walkie-talkies. And the long-range artillery fire of our army...... At this time, I am afraid that they will not be able to take care of the war here at all on the way to retreat.
On the other hand, although the number of Vietnamese troops is small, they are all well-trained and elite soldiers...... Just as our army always sends elite soldiers when it is interspersed in a roundabout, the interspersed troops of the Vietnamese army are certainly not bad. And what about our army...... Except for the dozens of soldiers in our company who have combat experience, most of the others are engineers of non-combat units.
Of course, there were some infantrymen among them, but they were not much better than those engineering units.
What made me feel even more helpless was that the Vietnamese army was on the opposite high ground and condescendingly attacked our army's position...... However, our army can only stay here to be bombed and beaten because they have to guard this highway bridge...... But the good thing is that our mission is not to defend the bridge, but to blow it up!
So I hurriedly shouted at Zhang Lian Commander: "Blow up the bridge, blow up the bridge immediately!" ”
Looking at my watch, the hands had just pointed to eleven o'clock, but I didn't care much about it at this time. Not to mention...... Now the situation is critical, the Vietnamese army has occupied the high ground across the bridge, and even if our troops have not withdrawn, it is impossible to break through the Vietnamese army's firepower network.
Of course, Company Commander Zhang also knew very well that he should not just stick to the order at this time, so he immediately issued an order to blow up the bridge.
But...... After a long time, the highway bridge did not move.
When I looked at Company Commander Zhang suspiciously, Company Commander Zhang replied in a panic: "The detonating wire broke the Vietnamese artillery fire!" (To be continued......)
