"Garrisoned on the 1828 heights, the Vietnamese army is the second regiment of the 308th Vietnamese Division." Division Commander Xu introduced: "This 308th Division has something to do with our army, because it was the first unit that was reorganized and trained by our army during the Vietnamese-French War. ”

Hearing this, the cadres couldn't help but be stunned, and since then, some have sighed and scolded, and more have smiled bitterly like me...... This is also the reason why we say that the Vietnam War is fighting against our shadow, and the Vietnamese army was trained by us in the most difficult times, so it is extremely similar to our army in terms of tactics and combat style.

"Speaking of this...... "Master Xu sighed and said, "I still remember the 308th Division of the Vietnamese Army, hmm...... When I first came, it was called a large regiment, and below it were six main battalions. Those soldiers, all of them were decently yellow and thin, extremely malnourished, and more importantly, they had no organization and discipline at that time, the guerrillas had a strong smell, and at the same time they didn't know why they were fighting, they only knew that the French were not good to them, and they wanted to drive the French out! ”

Listening to Master Xu's words, I couldn't help but be a little stunned.

"Divisional Commander!" I said, "You also participated in the training of the 308th Division of the Vietnamese Army back then?!" ”

"Not really!" Master Xu smiled bitterly: "Back then, I was just a small soldier, and I remember that the Yue devils at that time were like hungry ghosts, and they couldn't eat enough. We just save our own food for them to eat, and give them the military uniforms that they can't wear. They were also taught to use revolutionary ideas in the armed forces. It was only then that an organized and disciplined unit was formed. This force. Because it was the first main infantry division of the Vietnamese army, it was also called the 'vanguard division', which means to be ahead of everything in everything. ”

After a pause, Division Commander Xu continued: "But at the same time, it is this unit that used chemical weapons on a large scale against our army twice in 79 years......"

The headquarters fell silent for a moment, and all that could be heard was the sound of "clucking" gnashing teeth.

This is why our army generally requires soldiers to wear gas masks on the battlefield against Vietnam.

"It's all in the past!" After a long while, Senior Commander Xu raised his head at me: "Tell me, how do you want to fight from this 1828 height?" Even if this high ground is not stopped by the Vietnamese army, it will take a day to climb it. Besides, you are still going to save people. ”

"That's what I thought!" After calming down a little. I continued: "As the division commander said, if we infiltrate the Vietnamese defense line according to the conventional method, we will have to face at least two battles to break through the Vietnamese encirclement and then break through, even if the process of reaching the evacuation point is very smooth, ammunition will become a big problem. But if we break through from the heights of 1828, we will not need these two processes, but will reduce the consumption of ammunition over a large distance, and even bring a large amount of ammunition and supplies to the trapped reconnaissance group! ”

"How?" Hearing this, Division Commander Xu couldn't help but ask suspiciously: "You must know that this 308th Division is prepared, and its combat effectiveness is quite strong, which can be known from its performance when it fought with our army in the past." ”

Scar, who was next to him, thought about it and said, "Paragliding!" ”

"Yes!" I nodded: "The Vietnamese army only guards against our helicopters, but they don't expect us to use paragliders!" ”

"Paragliding?" Division Commander Xu and Staff Officer Yang and others couldn't help but look at each other.

"It's a kind of parachute!" I explained: "But this parachute is controllable, which means we can land wherever we want!" ”

"Oh!" Master Xu's eyes couldn't help but light up. Somewhat incredulous, he said, "And this kind of good thing? ”

It's no wonder that Master Xu doesn't know...... We've used it once on the battlefield, but we haven't announced how we won the battle for reasons of secrecy. Even the Vietnamese army lost somewhat inexplicably...... This is the benefit of information confidentiality, the first time we won like this, if the more devils don't find the reason for the failure, it means that we can use it again.

"The situation of the 1828 Heights is that there are several Heights on its positive slope." I pointed to a few points on the map and said, "Although these highlands are not the main peaks of the 1828 Highlands, they are also more than 1,000 meters above sea level, which is enough for us to parachute." At that time, as long as we cooperate with the infantry to launch a feint attack on the Vietnamese army to attract the attention of the Vietnamese army, and then under the cover of night, we can use paragliders to jump directly to the vicinity of the encircled reconnaissance company. ”

"At the same time, the paraglider can carry more ammunition and supplies!" Scar continued with my words: "This not only reduces the number of operations to break into the encirclement, but also basically solves the ammunition problem by replenishing the reconnaissance company!" ”

Master Xu was silent for a while, he seemed to be reconnecting all the processes we just said, and then nodded and said, "It's indeed a good idea, not to mention the rest, this will at least surprise the devil." That's it! ”

So the plan was decided.

But many things are easier said than done, and so is our plan.

On the one hand, in order to further increase the hope of success in the mission, Division Commander Xu urgently contacted the scouts who had infiltrated the border to carry out relevant reconnaissance activities, such as whether the Vietnamese army had anti-aircraft missiles in their hands, what was the defensive posture of the south side that we planned to break through, and the deployment of infantry in the hinterland.

We even have to set an evacuation route and a safe evacuation point based on this information.

The second is that this plan does not seem to be complicated, but in fact it involves the coordination of various arms, for example, when carrying out a feint attack on the 1828 heights, we need the coordination between infantry and artillery, when we use paragliders, we need artillery to guide the direction, and finally we need the coordinated evacuation of helicopters...... As long as one of these links goes wrong, it may lead to the bankruptcy of the entire plan.

Therefore, Division Commander Xu and his staff officers were quickly busy, and various orders and various troop transfers were quickly conveyed one by one, and they even seized the time to conduct a combat training.

And what about our Agent Company?

At this time, it was the most idle unit...... Although we are still the protagonists in this battle, what we pay attention to is to practice and look at peacetime, that is, everything should be solved in the high-intensity training in peacetime.
