Although the decapitation operation was smooth and killed the warlord leader, his younger brother immediately took over his brother's gun, and it seems that this younger brother's classmate had already planned to take over, and if the Xinming Mobile Army did not kill Nordson, he would have to "do it himself".

In short, after Xinming killed Nordson, he found that this separatist force did not collapse at all, and was still firmly entrenched on the border between Thailand and Laos, controlling the border trade between the two countries.

Xin Ming's face was gloomy, so the new Fourth Mobile Army (referred to as the New Fourth Army) was sent to the border between Thailand and Laos, and Xin Ming also used it to test the effectiveness of air assault troops in jungle operations.

Subsequently, in order to cooperate with the operations of the newly formed Fourth Mobile Army, Xinming mobilized a large number of air forces into the theater and repeatedly bombed the jungles of Laos.

In just a few months, the forests of Laos were bombarded with numerous fires, but the high humidity of the tropical jungle made it difficult for the fires to boil, which helped the warlords considerably.

But the villages and towns in the jungle were not so lucky, as napalm, cloudbursts, and heavy ordinary bombs wiped out almost all of them. The tactics of the Xinming army are fundamentally different from the PLA in another time and space, and the Xinming is now playing the routine of infantry occupation after the bombing, which is completely the model of the US army -- in this time and space, it should be called the German army.

However, this routine did not always work well, and the Laotians would often ambush in the ruins to surprise the new Ming army.

In October of this year, Xinming saw that although the air mobile army had been strangling the enemy, it could not solve the problem once and for all, and began to increase troops in the theater. One heavy division was sent to Thai territory, followed by two light infantry divisions to the front.

The troops of the three divisions quickly occupied the border town where the Mobile Army had previously killed Nordsin, and used this as a fulcrum to advance deeper into the warlord-controlled district, and after about a week, the forward finally overcame the poor road conditions and reached the capital of the warlord-controlled province.

Second Lieutenant Sun Yalong led his platoon to follow behind the butt of the chariot, advancing cautiously.

Unlike the air mobile corps led by old fritters in every company and platoon, Sun Yalong, as an officer of a regular army, is also a hairy boy who has just graduated from a military academy, and his combat experience is not much different from that of the soldiers under him, but more than some professional training and knowledge. Sun Yalong has already discovered that the things learned in school are useless, before they encountered an ambush, Sun Yalong's head was blank at all, all the tactical knowledge was gone, and there was nothing left in his head.

Fortunately, he was witty and took his subordinates to defeat the enemy. After the incident, Sun Yalong found that he and his subordinates were intact, and he lamented that the Laotians' marksmanship was really rotten.

But that ambush still made Sun Yalong dare not be careless at this time.

His troops were scattered in a very scattered line, following three chariots advancing side by side, and the closest to the chariots in front of them was the company commander, Captain Zhou Ke. The captain bravely stood at the front of the entire company, following closely the advancing chariots.

Ahead was the local capital that had been devastated by napalm, and Sun Yalong knew that the task of the troops was to carve a bridgehead on the edge of the town and wait for the arrival of the follow-up troops.

"Platoon commander, do you think we can sleep in a house with a roof today?" The soldier who followed behind Sun Yalong asked.

"Sleep on your sister, don't you see that these houses with roofs have been bombed, and you can be content if you have a wall to block the wind."

"But it's drizzling all day in this place, and without a roof, we're like sleeping in the water. My feet are soaked, what are we doing robbing them of this place? Whoever is going to give it to whom. ”

"Go, go," Sun Yalong glanced at the soldier, "Is this what you can say, who else wants to give it to whom, you know?" ”

"I don't understand, I'm not educated, although I can recognize words and count, but you told me that I don't understand these words."

Sun Yalong pursed his lips and didn't reply, but looked at the town in the distance.

At this moment, the ground in front of the tank exploded.

Sun Yalong reflexively threw himself to the ground, and his subordinates had already experienced a real battle, and their reactions were also very fast—when it came to human lives, people's reactions were generally very fast.

As soon as he lay down, the shockwave of the explosion swept over the back of Sun Yalong's head, tearing at his hair. After the air wave passed, there was silence, no gunshots, and no subsequent explosions were heard.

Sun Yalong raised his head and first confirmed the condition of the chariot, if the chariot was killed, then he estimated that the recruits would be shaken very much, and maybe they would have to retreat. Luckily, the vehicle looked intact, the exhaust vents were still smoking, and the engine sounded fine.

Then Sun Yalong began to look for the company commander, but found the company commander lying on the ground behind the chariot.

He hurriedly got up and trotted a few steps to his face, only to find that the crotch of his trousers had been completely stained red. Zhou Ke saw Sun Yalong, and opened his mouth strugglingly: "Help me work S5......"

"What the hell are you talking about?" Sun Yalong looked inexplicable, and at the same time turned around and opened his throat and shouted, "Hygienist! Hygienist! ”

The hygienist immediately trotted up to catch up and began to treat Zhou Ke's wounds, while Sun Yalong ran behind the butt of the chariot, poked out his head and looked forward with a telescope, and Sun Yalong didn't see the shadow of the enemy for a long time. There was no way Sun Yalong opened the small box hanging on the back of the chariot and took out the telephone microphone - this thing was the standard configuration of the German chariot, and Lin Youde learned it from the U.S. Marines in another time and space.

"I don't see anyone firing at us, do you have any catches?"

"No," replied the commander of the chariot at once, "you can't see from the outside, and we can't see it anymore, and although the view of the new car is good, it is still much worse than yours." ”

Sun Yalong pouted.

"I'll lead the team to reconnoiter and see if I can force the enemy's firepower out."

After that, Sun Yalong hung up the phone, turned back to his platoon and gave an order: "First platoon, follow me, and the stragglers will move forward." ”

After saying that, Sun Yalong left the shelter of the chariot, and the cat bent his waist and cautiously touched forward, and his platoon immediately followed him, and the skirmish line slowly crossed the chariots side by side.

Sun Yalong took a few steps forward, then suddenly ran up and rushed straight to the low wall on the edge of the town to hide, and his platoon also ran wildly when he saw this, each running to the bunker on the edge of the town.

At this time, the Laotians could not bear to open fire, and the second floor of a small two-story building began to spew out tongues of machine-gun fire, and the next moment the main guns of the chariot hit the building.

"Well done!" Sun Yalong couldn't help but cheer, and then ordered his subordinates with gestures, "We are ready to enter the city, alternately covering and slowly advancing." ”
