Chapter 24: Exploring the Hole (3)

The battle soon ended with the sound of gunfire and grenade explosions.

We're going to wait until the devils retreat in front of us...... It's hard to see the enemy in the dark, but who cares? Just shoot into the moving darkness below.

A volley of bullets passed and a large number of ...... fell Well, we also know that there are fake deaths and lying down, but it doesn't have any effect on the outcome, because the next step is ...... We just threw the grenades down in a row. Whether it's dead or alive, it's all blown up again.

Some of the devils want to escape...... But it soon became clear that there was nowhere to escape, because on the other side of them there were mines everywhere, and although most of them had small flags, if they had escaped...... I believe that no one can escape from this darkness.

So the battle ended in ten minutes, but as before, we did not rush to clean up the battlefield. Anyway, the devils can't escape whether they are dead or alive, so why should we risk cleaning up the battlefield? You must know that as long as one or two Vietnamese soldiers attack us in this darkness, it is very likely to cause confusion in distinguishing between friend and foe, and this is by no means what we want to see.

However, we did not return to the tunnel, and it is undoubtedly dangerous to return to the tunnel at this time.

This danger is not that it will allow the Yue Devil to discover the location of the tunnel, but because it cannot be identified...... How did the soldiers in the pit know that it was their own people or the devils who were going to come in outside?

By shouting? There are many people who can speak Chinese.

By code? A large number of corpses of the Yue devils are near us, what if one of them hears the code? You know, this tunnel is a confined space. As long as one of the more devils sneaked in and set the explosives on fire. That would be devastating to the tunnels and the warriors inside.

So we can't take that risk.

And in tactical terms. We can't go back to the tunnel.

We want to make the more devils realize one point: from now on, we are no longer purely hiding in the tunnel to defend, but the combination of lurking outside the tunnel and defense inside the tunnel, and even if necessary, we can also carry out anti-"touching" of the more devils.

Obviously, this tactic of combining lurking and defense is mature and perfect, because this directly leads to any group of devils who want to come up to "feel the hole" must consider whether there is an enemy lurking in the dark.

This invisible pressure is definitely much more threatening than landmines...... Mines are dead, and with experience and caution, you can advance while clearing them, but the lurking enemy is alive. They will never wait for you to find them like mines, but you will climb up stupidly when they are right in front of you without noticing......

Of course, this kind of lurking is also quite tough, especially since most of the fighters suffer from "rotten crotch...... For example, tonight, the itching from my lower body made me want to pull out the thorn and cut it off several times...... Of course, this is an angry talk in a state of distraction, this thing is a treasure for a man, sometimes life can be lost, but this treasure cannot be lost.

But on the other hand. This is another rare test for me and the fighters. Because I can still lie motionless on my stomach in the case of "rotten crotch", then I believe that I can hold on to it in any situation.

I found out later. In fact, the fighters had other ways to deal with it...... Hold the gun in your right hand and the egg in your left hand before lying down, and you can catch it with your fingers when it's itchy, which is still scratching under the straddle in the dark night, and no one will notice it at all......

Some people may say, isn't it uncomfortable to press that hand under you? Those guys were clever enough to dig a ditch in the ground about the length of an arm's length for their left hand...... Well, when you lie down, you can't hold your hands down at all.

For this aspect, I admit that I am an afterthought.

As a result, the "touching holes" of the more devils converged a lot under our lurking, and soon turned from a large number of unscrupulous "touching holes" to sneak attacks of less than ten people.

From this point of view, I still admire the spirit of the Vietnamese army that can endure hardships.

We did the lurking work every night, and since the first night's lurk, our three platoons have been working in shifts, that is, each platoon has been lurking outside the tunnel for one night every three days.

But even so, there are still more devils who can sneak in and touch our people's tunnels very accurately...... At first, I couldn't figure out how this devil entered our army's position under the noses of our lurking troops and accurately touched our tunnel. I found out later...... This devil uses snail tactics.

The so-called snail tactics...... As the name suggests, it is to crawl as slowly as a snail, and it takes ten or even dozens of minutes to make sure that there is no danger in front of you before taking a step forward...... In this way, we moved forward step by step and entered the position under our noses.

Some people may say, will there be enough time for the devil to move like this? I'm afraid that I won't be able to enter our army's position overnight...... Sometimes this is true, but they also lurk during the day, near our positions and even in our positions, in the same way as we do, burying themselves in the dirt, even their heads, leaving only a hollow bamboo tube in their mouths to breathe on the ground......

The rain quickly washes away the traces they leave on the surface, and sometimes we don't even notice there's anyone underneath them, even if we step on them.

Then wait until the evening before they emerge to observe...... When he was sure of the location of our army's tunnel and that there were people inside, he suddenly burst forward and hit it with one blow.

The reason why we found this trick of the devil is ...... It all started with an accident.

At that time, we were feeling inexplicable because the tunnel was touched by the Yue devil the night before, and the platoon of the scar was obviously lurking around the position, and we didn't find the figure of the Yue devil at all. What's even weirder is ...... We have one platoon lurking outside, and there are two U-shaped fortifications hiding from most people, and the other small tunnels are just a few people hiding from them.

But even so, the more devils can still find a small pit to blow up people......

For this reason, Company Commander Luo also criticized Scar fiercely, thinking that this was a problem with Scar's platoon. Scar didn't make a sound, although it was impossible for a devil to touch it under his nose, but it was difficult to guarantee that there were any soldiers under him who were sleepy and deserted.

But soon the truth was revealed......

"Platoon commander! Platoon leader...... I caught one alive! Just as the soldiers were swallowing the biscuits in the rain in front of the mouth of the tunnel, Wang Kechang escorted a naked Vietnamese soldier back.

As soon as everyone looked at the frame of the prisoner and the gun captured in Wang Kechang's hand, they felt strange, how could there be a heavily armed Yue devil being captured alive in broad daylight, and it was still near our array...... And if he took advantage of the time we got together to shoot a volley of bullets......

"Where did you catch it?" Company Commander Luo quickly asked.

"It's in that col!" Wang Kechang pointed behind him: "I originally wanted to go there, but I didn't expect to squat down yet...... Something is wrong? ”

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"There's a white ass in the mud!" Wang Kechang said with a smile: "At first, I thought it was the corpse of the Yue devil, so I didn't care...... But the more I looked at it, the more I felt that it was wrong, if this was a corpse, it should have rotted a long time ago...... I poked this ass with a branch and it was very bouncy......"

There was a coax, and the soldiers couldn't help but laugh when they heard it.

Later, after interrogating the prisoner, I learned that the Vietnamese soldier had used snail tactics to move to the vicinity of our position overnight, and buried himself before dawn to prepare for the night to "touch the hole...... actually rushed out his ass, so he asked Wang Kechang to pick up a ready-made one.

Now that we know the tactics of the Vietnamese army, it will be easy to deal with. Let's send a team of people to walk around the position with bayonets in their hands, and poke them with bayonets as they go...... Whether it's on the ground or in the grass, it's right to pierce it all over again anyway, and it turns out that the other five heavily armed Yue devils really come out.

Of course, the devils are not going to be caught or waiting for our bayonets to pierce them, and many of them want to get up from the dirt and resist when they realize that something is wrong.

But alas...... Being buried in the ground for a long time and not moving will cause numbness in the hands and feet and inflexible reactions, so even if they have excellent military qualities and want to suddenly break out, it is more than enough to be weak, and our soldiers have enough time to knock them to the ground before they can raise their guns.

Although the tactics of the Vietnamese devils failed under our hands, for the spirit of the Vietnamese army who is not afraid of hardship and death...... The fighters were still shocked.

We've all been lurking people, and we all know what it's like to be lurking...... We can't stand it for a night, but the more devils can lurk for a whole day or even longer.

You know, the longer the incubation time, the more painful it will increase with the progression, because there will be problems with cold, hunger, and excretion...... We have been lurking for more than ten hours at night, and these problems will be over, but what about the devils? They even had to bury themselves in the earth during the day......

This kind of lurking is almost unimaginable to the warriors, and it is impossible for me to imagine, so I didn't expect the Yue Devil to use this tactic at all.

Perhaps, this is the difference between us who grew up in a peaceful environment and the Vietnamese army who grew up in a war environment!

There is a saying that "when you are strong, you are strong, and when you are weak, you are weak", and on the other hand, the spirit of the devil is also inspiring us to continue to persevere.

Because the soldiers will think: "The more devils can endure this kind of hardship, then what is our bitterness?" Will we still be inferior to the Yue Devils? (To be continued......)
