The west bank of the Salween River.

All the Confederate soldiers who could swim had completed the crossing, which took a total of 4 minutes.

And after coming ashore, they did not stop on their feet, and immediately continued to run westward, hiding in the sparse jungle on the west bank of the river.

At this time, the pursuing enemy had reached the bank of the river, through the night vision binoculars, Chen Shen nervously looked at the dispatch situation on the opposite side, listened to Bao Qi's radio listening report, and then he found that Wei Huairen's tactical arrangement can really be called "steady"!

He did not press all his troops to the bank of the river, but mobilized two companies to advance in echelons to cover while the vanguard was preparing to force a pursuit across the river, and at the same time, on the hill in the distance, the artillery company had also completed the transfer, re-erected the 107 rocket artillery in the ridge position, aimed in the direction of the river bank.

Under such an arrangement, the other side has completely suppressed all the routes of its own continued escape.

If they continue to the west, then they will bombard the ground with rocket artillery to slow down their own speed and facilitate the pursuit of the vanguard troops crossing the river;

If they choose to defend on the riverbank, the other two companies that arrive can support the vanguard in time and crush them from the firepower.

If you flee along the river in any direction north and south, whether it is the vanguard that crosses the Salween and is close to the north, or the support company that remains on the east bank and is closer to the south, you can continue to pursue along the river, and then bite your side to death in one skirmish after another.

Impeccable tactics, and is almost impossible to find flawless loopholes.

Their only chance was to defeat all the vanguard troops crossing the river in a very short time, and then flee north along the river and to the north.

But in this way, you will inevitably expose your target and face the risk of being empowered by rockets.

There is no perfect strategy, there are only relatively feasible strategies.

Chen Shen frowned, he quickly calculated the distance of the enemy and the rate of movement of the enemy's troops in his heart, trying to find the gap that could be "interspersed".

The two support companies were at least 10 minutes away from the river, and the vanguard had already set up fire points on the riverbank, and they would make a forced crossing in two minutes at most, and under fire cover, they would be able to complete the crossing in four minutes at most.

6 minutes.

This means that there is a time difference of 4 minutes between the vanguard and the support force.

This 4-minute time difference is your chance!

Chen Shen's eyes lit up, and he already had a strategy in his heart.

So, he immediately turned in Peng Deren's direction, but before he could speak, the latter preemptively said:

"Chief Chen, the team is gone!"

"The team is gone?! What do you mean? ”

Chen Shen was puzzled and angry, he had already guessed what Peng Deren meant by "no more".

The team is going to disperse.

After being forced to delay the enemy with Peng Deren's own soldiers, the morale of this allied army was lost.

They will never be able to understand what sacrifice is, what it means to "block attacks one after another," and even less what "Cheorwon tactics" are!

They are not the original team that divided more than 9,000 people into more than 200 small positions, relying on the desperate tactics of dozens of people in one position, one position after one position to empty, and one formation after another to defeat as many as 100,000 enemy troops, they are just a rabble that will immediately give birth to fear and immediately plan to give up after seeing their teammates die!

There is no way, this is the fundamental gap.

Even if Chen Shen had prepared in advance, he was still extremely angry in the face of such a situation.

After hearing Chen Shen's questioning, Peng Deren couldn't help but retreat.

He vaguely felt that the man in front of him was an angry lion, not only to tear the enemy apart, but even in front of him, he was just a weak vassal

After calming down a little, Peng Deren opened his mouth and replied:

"Somebody is leaving, starting with the fifth group, to the tenth, they are all going to go."

"They want to cross the border north and go north, they don't want to fight anymore!"

"If you don't want to fight, can you stop fighting? Did they think Wei Huairen's border battalion would let them go? ”

Or do they think that Wei Huairen can't catch up with them? Rocket artillery can't catch up with them?! ”

Chen Shen's tone was cold, and Peng Deren hurriedly replied:

"I've already said it, but"

"Needless to say."

Chen Shen interrupted his explanation without hesitation.

There is no need, Peng Deren has lost most of his control of this team, in fact, he may not have stayed because of his authority and leadership, but because

They felt that if they went north, they would be more likely to die.

The Dongfeng Corps and the Allied Army had been completely separated, and Chen Shen's command system had begun to disintegrate.

Now there is only one common goal left for both sides: to survive.

This is the most dangerous situation on the battlefield, and the negative impact of command disorder is even more exaggerated than running out of ammunition and food!

However, Chen Shen did not have any time to do any pre-war mobilization or ideological construction work.

All he could do was find a way to get the team back together in this most extreme situation.

So, at once, he ordered:

"I won't stop anyone who wants to leave, but they must at least complete the interception of the vanguard troops crossing the river before leaving."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to run away anyway!"

"Understood! I'll go inform! ”

Peng Deren replied, while Chen Shen began to order the change of communication channels, directly cutting off all contact with the "deserters".

The two sides officially entered the stage of fighting separately, and they only had the last two minutes left to cooperate.

As the machine guns of the vanguard fire team on the other side of the river rang out, the enemy officially began to cross the river, and Chen Shen also returned fire, and the dense bullets were fired at the river, but compared to the wide river, this firepower was really insignificant.

The enemy's crossing force had advanced to the middle of the river, and their losses were only a few men.

Chen Shen once again observed the movements of all the enemy's troops, and then, he issued an order that surprised everyone:

"Everyone advance 100 meters south along the jungle and cross the river east!"

"We must get into the eastern jungle before the two enemy support forces reach the river beach."

"We're going to pass through them!"

Peng Deren's eyes widened.

"How is this possible?"

He asked subconsciously.

"Nothing is impossible."

"There is a time lag between the opposing vanguard and the support troops, and we can use this time difference to sneak across the river."

"They only have a small number of night vision devices, and it's almost impossible to catch us."

"And more importantly. Aren't we running north? ”

Peng Deren was stunned.

He never thought that even the division of his own army would be taken advantage of by this man.

He seized all the conditions available on the battlefield in pursuit of victory.

There were no longer unnecessary doubts, and Peng Deren decisively followed Chen Shen's footsteps.

Subsequently, the only two remaining groups of more than 20 people began to advance rapidly to the south.

Two minutes later, they arrived at the predetermined place of the river crossing, and then, according to Chen Shen's precise calculations, they all went into the water when the enemy's vanguard had completed the crossing and began to pursue the Allied soldiers fleeing north.

On their north side, rockets began to rain down in a dense manner, and the light of the fire shone on the figures who were panicking.

Peng Deren suddenly felt a little sad.

He didn't understand, the only chance to survive in death was in front of him, why couldn't these people figure it out?

Without time for any more mourning, the team rereached the east bank of the Salween River after three minutes, and then everyone went ashore along the shallows, using the cover of the lower bank to re-enter the jungle at an angle that was almost impossible to detect.

They had crossed the river from this jungle 10 minutes earlier.

And now, they are back in the jungle.

It seems that nothing has changed, but in fact, everything has changed.

——

Because, the two companies that came to support them pushed over to their side.

They didn't find their whereabouts, because their attention was completely absorbed by the "splinter team".

Pass!

It's a passing of the time difference!

"What now?"

Peng Deren asked.

He knew that the line of defense that was still blocking his side was extremely weak, and if he could fight through it in one go, he would probably be able to break out of the encirclement!

Yes, your remaining combat power is extremely weak, but how do you know if you can't do it without giving it a try?

Let's fight!

A majestic desire to fight rose in his heart, but he had no clue who he was going to fight and in which direction.

On his side, Chen Shen didn't answer his question at all, just listened carefully to Bao Qi's listening report.

"Two companies are searching down the ridge, and if we withdraw directly to the south, we will most likely run into them directly."

"There is a chance to penetrate, but as soon as the gunshots are fired, these two companies will quickly shrink and drag us down, and Wei Huairen's reserve company can also support immediately."

"We're going to get bitten, we don't have vehicles, but they do."

"Then don't break through to the south! Where is the opposing artillery battery? ”

"At the top of the hill, the location should be on this line."

"Where is the command post of the other side? Where is Wei Huairen? ”

"Here, Taman Village."

With the help of the light of the glimmer flashlight, Chen Shen, who was lurking in the jungle, saw clearly the location of the artillery position and the location of the peripheral command post.

The distance between the artillery positions and the two "Soshan" companies created a gap of nearly 300 meters.

Moreover, from the heights where the artillery positions are located, it should be possible to visually see the command post in a lower horizontal position.

Steady.

Chen Shen exhaled a long breath, and then spoke:

"We assault the opposing artillery battery."

"They certainly won't have much defense, because all the light infantry has already been sent out."

"It's 600 meters away and you can get there in about 10 minutes."

"At the speed of the mountain-searching troops, we can pass through the gaps."

"All team leaders report, how many smoke bombs are left?"

"4 rounds."

"6 rounds."

"I've got 8 shots here."

"Give us all the smoke grenades, No. 1, leave 4 rounds, and throw all the rest."

"No. 5 leads the way, No. 1, you act as a breakthrough hand, throw a stun bomb and then storm into the position and establish an initial point of fire."

"No. 3, find the right angle and knock out high-value targets."

"No. 2, No. 6, get ready to operate the gun, you have to cooperate with me to complete the rocket aiming and loading as quickly as possible!"

"Understood!"

Everyone in the Dongfeng Corps answered in unison, while the leaders of the two groups of the Allied Army subconsciously asked:

"What about us?"

"Just follow and charge, don't point the muzzle at your own people!"

Chen Shen didn't waste time making more detailed arrangements for these soldiers, because he knew that with the quality of these people, all the arrangements would be impossible to implement.

It's better to make it simpler and rush along!

So, as soon as the order was clear, the team began to move forward.

Relying on the advantages of infrared night vision and radio listening, the 20 people narrowly avoided the mountain search team and went straight to the heart of the enemy's front line.

Peng Deren's heart beat violently, maybe his soldiers couldn't see the big picture clearly, but he fully understood how bold and risky this strategy was.

Because, this is tantamount to putting this squad of only 24 people completely surrounded by the enemy!

Are you kidding?!

We just ran out of the encirclement, and now we actually took the initiative to step into the encirclement again?!

What exactly has changed? What's the difference?

That's right, the only point of change is the relative position of your side to the artillery position.

With so many interspersed operations and so many brutal tactics before, there was only one goal sought, that is, to close the distance between the artillery positions and the artillery positions.

And as long as this artillery position is eliminated and the "heavy weapons" that the enemy has not had time to use, the victory rate of the squad will be greatly improved!

Strategizing, just for this winning blow.

At this moment, Peng Deren finally felt the charm of tactics.

And at this time, the enemy's artillery positions were already in front of them.

The assault took place between surprises, and when the distance was about 50 meters, Lin He and Li Gang, who were in the lead, began to throw smoke bombs and grenades non-stop.

Under the cover of explosives, the other four fighters of the Dongfeng Corps launched a surprise attack from two directions.

The guns flickered, and the enemy in the position did not have time to react at all.

They don't even have guns in their hands, because they are just "artillerymen", and their hands are to be used to manipulate rocket artillery!

There are no more than twenty vigilance personnel, but these twenty enemies have no ability to resist at all in the face of the powerful and accurate firepower of the Dongfeng Corps!

Peng Deren even saw that the man named "No. 1" shot hard against an eight-one bar, and used the shotgun in his hand to blow the head of the enemy on the opposite side.

His body staggered for a moment, and then he resumed his fast, nimble movement and concealment.

The Confederate squad that followed behind was long overdue, and when they entered the battlefield, they were left with the task of "clearing up the remaining artillery that had no ability to resist".

The battle happened suddenly, and then it ended abruptly.

The whole process didn't even take more than two minutes.

Peng Deren's heart rate had reached its limit, and he felt unprecedented vertigo.

——

However, Chen Shen didn't give him the slightest respite.

Because he's already starting to tune those rocket launchers.

"Don't be stunned! 4 groups on alert, 2 groups came up to carry shells! ”

"Wei Huairen hasn't reacted yet, it's time to invite him to some supper!"
