Chapter 431: Forced Landing

"We can't fly back to Mengka with fuel, seaplanes can go, but helicopters can only land nearby."

"There are still 150 miles left, and we still have to climb the mountain, and we can't even get to Bamo."

"There are land conditions near the big wave speed, let's go and land there!"

"Understood, to the speed of the big wave landing."

On the helicopter, Cheng Lei, who had just come out of danger, immediately made a judgment, and after receiving his information, Chen Shen also passed it from the good side.

At present, the crisis of the Dongfeng Corps is far from being completely resolved, and the four seaplanes have begun to turn back towards Mengka, and they can fly back, but the helicopters will definitely not be able to fly back.

At the same time, Kachin reinforcements are arriving, and although the Kachin army in the direction of Myitkyina has already gone to Mogang, all the nearby Kachin territory is Kachin territory, and it is difficult for the helicopter to retreat wherever it lands.

The Dongfeng Corps did get a respite, but it was definitely not for long.

In order to get out of the way, and to leave these two incomparably precious helicopters behind, everyone had to find another way.

Twenty minutes had passed, and the fuel of the two helicopters had bottomed out, and at this time, they had finally flown to the position indicated by Cheng Lei and completed the landing on a flat ground on the top of the big wave speed.

The time is just right, even if it takes another 5 minutes, both helicopters may face the risk of crashing and dying.

Chen Shen quickly jumped off the plane and organized everyone to start arming.

"The reconnaissance group occupies the commanding heights and establishes an observation post!"

"Mechanic! Remove the heavy machine guns from the helicopter and set up the firing points! ”

"Remember, stay away from the helicopter!"

"Fuel will arrive soon, guns can be lost, but helicopters can't be lost!"

"Everyone checks the weapons and ammunition, spreads out in pairs to reconnoitre, and sets up a forward guard post."

"Don't blindly fire when you see the enemy, pass on the enemy's situation in time!"

"Understood!"

Everyone sprang into action at once, and after ten minutes, an improvised line of defense was quickly established.

At this time, they are located on the border, less than 200 meters to the east to the north and 9 kilometers to the west to Bagan National Highway No. 31, separated by mountains.

Theoretically, this position is still quite safe, as long as you hold on and wait for Xiaoyu to mobilize resources to bring fuel, everyone can evacuate immediately.

However, Chen Shen knows that this area is definitely not that simple.

Dalangsu is less than 20 kilometers away from the S333 highway to the north, smuggling is extremely rampant, and this border is also a key defensive area in the north, where many "special" teams are stationed.

In response, Kachin has also arranged large and small military bases around the border, although the number of personnel is not too large, but for the Dongfeng Corps at this time, it is definitely a big trouble.

The nearest base is less than 6 kilometers away!

Of course, Chen Shen is not worried about the Kachin army in these scattered military bases, the current Dongfeng Corps has been replenished with ammunition, if there is only light infantry, on the premise of occupying the terrain advantage, they can kill as many as they can say.

But the problem is that as long as there is a military base, it means that there is a road.

And as long as there is a road, it means that large Kachin forces can be quickly mobilized by high-speed-small routes.

It won't be long before they will be completely surrounded, and the Dongfeng Corps, which has just killed a key person, will definitely not be let go!

Thinking of this, Chen Shen breathed a long sigh of relief, and then he found Cheng Lei and asked:

"Do you have any other words about choosing to land here?"

Hearing his words, Cheng Lei shook his head and replied:

"Nope."

"It's the only reliable foothold in our flight radius."

"The rest of the place is either surrounded by a road network or important towns."

"We can't go into the basin anymore, there are no roads to go through, no fuel to get through."

"Falling here, at least we still have a chance."

"With the S333 highway, we can send fuel supplies from the north, and as long as we are efficient enough, we can completely withdraw before the enemy arrives."

"But the problem now is that it's too late."

Chen Shen interrupted Cheng Lei's words and continued:

"The big wave speed is still 20 kilometers away from the highway, and the motorcycle can only barely get over."

"It takes time to dispatch and communicate, and it is impossible for them to arrive within one hour."

"But the Kachin side"

Before he could finish his sentence, the voice of the reconnaissance team came over the radio.

"Enemy vanguard unit spotted, 4 people, light equipment, approaching on foot from north to south, please instruct."

"Let it go, find a way to catch it alive."

Chen Shen spoke decisively and no longer had anything to do with Cheng Lei.

He knows that Cheng Lei's decision may not be completely correct, but he is a "northerner" after all, and he has a natural sense of trust in his own people.

Choosing to fall on the big wave speed is actually choosing to fall closer to one's own people.

Chen Shen couldn't blame him, if he was in Cheng Lei's position, there was no doubt that he would make the same choice.

Now, now that we've come here, we can only take it step by step and get ready for another fight.

"Lin He, you take the wounded and retreat into the jungle first."

"Find the smuggling path, identify the direction, and if you can't evacuate from the air later, you will cross the border with the wounded."

"Also, put explosives on the helicopter, if we can't use it, don't even think about it on the Kachin side!"

"Understood!"

Lin He immediately turned around to execute, and at this moment, two gunshots rang out in the mountains and forests in the distance.

Chen Shen immediately raised his binoculars and looked at the path in the forest below the mountain.

The jungle was very dense, and the cascading canopy of trees almost obscured all vision, but he still saw a few moving figures through the cracks.

The enemy's vanguard was unsurprisingly captured by the reconnaissance group, and 10 minutes later, the remaining two disgraced Kachin soldiers who were not dead were brought to Chen Shen's side.

Chen Shen didn't waste a little time, he only asked the two soldiers one question.

Going out to reconnoitre, whether it was an order from their own commander or an order from a higher level.

And the answers of the two made his heart sink.

It was indeed an order from a higher level, and this order had been given 1 hour earlier.

This means that before they landed, the Kachin side had already predicted where they would land!

With Kachin's own ability and technical strength, it is impossible to track the helicopter in the air, and the United States must have other means of surveillance!

Satellite? Radar?

It can't be a radar, if there is such a thing, it is impossible for your own surprise attack on Mogang to succeed this time.

Chen Shen frowned, but now he couldn't think too much about it.

Because he knew that under this circumstance, the enemy was definitely close at hand!

"Get ready for battle! Watch out for enemy motorized unit attacks! ”

"Understood!"

At this time, the two crews of the Dongfeng Corps, plus the evacuees, had a total of 14 available troops, excluding the two wounded, and there was not much heavy firepower.

How easy is it to rely on these 14 people to hold two helicopters?

All they could do was to defend themselves in the jungle as much as they could, delay as long as they could, and hold out until the fuel arrived.

Chen Shen stepped aside, turned on the satellite phone, and dialed Xiaoyu's number after successfully searching for the star.

"We can't go back for the time being, and we are forced to land near the big wave."

"We need to."

"I already know."

Xiao Yu interrupted Chen Shen's words and continued:

"The fuel has departed from Yingjiang, and it can reach Jianbian in 30 minutes at most, and it will take 30 minutes to reach the Dalangsu border from Jianbian, and we have contacted the CAPF BDF to cooperate, and the transit should not be a big problem."

"Hold on for an hour, and take off as soon as the fuel arrives."

"I'll find a way to communicate, if it's possible, you can leave only the pilot, and the others will withdraw first!"

"Understood."

As soon as Xiao Yu said this, Chen Shen immediately understood what she meant.

If he really faces the most dangerous situation, Xiaoyu is ready to make a fuss about the identity of these pilots and directly provide them with shelter.

This is definitely a rather risky move, unless it is absolutely necessary, Chen Shen does not intend to come to this hand.

But of course, he will not refuse this "last resort" either.

"Can you see how far away the Kachin side is from us?"

Chen Shen continued to ask.

"I can't see it."

"But we have intelligence that the Kachin defenders in several nearby military camps have begun to move in the direction of the big wave, and they are carrying heavy weapons and towed howitzers."

"You're short on time, do a good job of camouflage as soon as possible, and do a good job of preventing shelling."

"It didn't work."

Chen Shen interrupted Xiaoyu and continued:

"We have been followed, and our whereabouts have been completely exposed."

"Find out what's going on, I suspect we have a reconnaissance plane overhead!"

"Drones?"

Xiao Yu's tone immediately changed, showing a bit of coldness.

"There is a high probability that it is a drone, and if there are reconnaissance planes, they should not be sent here."

"Understood, I'll go check and wait for my news."

With a snap, the phone hung up.

Chen Shen put away the satellite phone and was about to continue to check the defensive arrangement, but on the Kachin side, he didn't mean to let him breathe at all.

"The enemy follow-up troops have arrived."

"At the moment, I see 1 group of 12 people, with vehicles."

"There should be other enemy forces in the jungle."

"Captain, how do you fight?"

"Knock them out first, don't put them close!"

"Understood!"

Chen Shen did not take the initiative to intervene in the battlefield, but handed over this task to the reconnaissance team that went forward.

This is not because of Toda, in fact, a group of light infantry with only 12 men, even with vehicles, plus other hidden enemies in the jungle, is basically impossible to exceed 30.

If the 8 people who came out of the front can't even beat 30 people, then the signboard of the Dongfeng Corps can also be taken off directly.

All the members of the forward team were ready for battle, but the shots did not ring out immediately.

It took two minutes of waiting for the first shot to explode in the woods.

It was already one o'clock in the afternoon, and it was the time when the birds in the jungle were at their most active.

This gunshot caused countless birds and beasts to flee in all directions, and Chen Shen, who was standing on a high place, looked at those frightened wings and waited silently.

After the first shots, an intensive counterattack began to sound.

Even if he wasn't on the battlefield in person, Chen Shen could guess that the first group of 12 light infantry had already begun to counterattack.

However, their counterattack lasted only a moment.

After a few short shots in a row, which were different from the Bayi bar, the jungle calmed down again.

Soon, another barrage of gunfire rang out.

This time, the gunshots coming from the forest began to have a sense of rhythm, which showed that the person who fired the gun was obviously not the cannon fodder of the impulsive bait walking on the road.

The Kachin side is quite well prepared, but no matter how well prepared, it cannot erase the gap in equipment and technology when the tactical level does not reach the crushing level.

The gunfire from the Dongfeng Corps was still methodical, and the battle between the two sides was like two fighters facing each other, one of them attacking quickly and fiercely, but the other was braking quietly, and never made a move until the moment of death.

For another two minutes, a series of M249 long bursts rang out.

Immediately afterwards, three consecutive rounds of violent sounds characteristic of M107 were interspersed with them.

The enemy's gunfire, which had already begun to disperse slightly, immediately weakened a lot, and the first Kachin "big force" had reached the end of its strong crossbow.

They didn't last more than two minutes, and the final encirclement ended with continuous, rapid but short bursts of fire.

Then, Chen Shen's headphones heard the sound of the reconnaissance team's return.

"Captain, confirm the clearance."

"A total of 28 people, it is the vanguard."

"We intercepted their radio, and the follow-up troops of the opposing side have reached the vicinity of the village of Bernian, a distance of 7 kilometers in a straight line!"

Bernian Village

Chen Shen quickly unfolded the battle map and found the location of this village at a glance.

Not because of how familiar he is with the map of this area, but because

That's the commanding heights within tens of kilometers around!

"Hidden! Get ready for shelling! ”

Chen Shen's voice fell, and a single shell had already landed hundreds of meters in front of Dalangsu Mountain.

After a loud bang, a yellow-green smoke rose into the air.

This is a large-caliber howitzer.

Kachin really dared to shoot directly!?

It is clear that they have lost the ability to shell indirectly, which is why they are going to occupy the village of Bernian and fire from there at a straight point!

In the absence of a precise calculation of the shooting elements, their accuracy must be frighteningly low.

However, as long as they hit enough cannons, they will finally be able to send the cannonballs to the small hill of Dalangsu!

Everyone scattered and hidden, and the helicopters on the hill became unguarded targets.

At this time, Chen Shen no longer had the luxury of hoping to save these two helicopters.

The big deal was to walk along the border around the Kachin territory and return to the Wa state, and he absolutely did not believe that these Kachin people had a chance to catch him.

——

But it was also at this moment that the mutation occurred.

A shell exploded behind him.

300 meters behind him, beyond the barbed wire fence.

Chen Shen's scalp was numb, and his hair stood on end.

Not for himself, but for those Kachins.

the groove.

How dare you hit Big Brother's territory?!

You're afraid you already have a way to die!
