Volume 1: The Growth of the King of Soldiers Chapter 52: True and False Bait
It is a slope with a height of only about ten meters, and directly below the slope is a shallow beach covered with pebbles. Since the mountain stream is still flowing and not frozen, the large and small stones that have been washed away for many years can be seen and not covered with snow.
The second and third platoons of the Red Army reconnaissance company were lying in ambush on this slope at this time. It's a good place for ambushes, perhaps because it is a flood channel for the mountains during the rainy season, and most of the rocks washed down from the mountains are scattered in it, so it also provides good cover for the soldiers.
Those who dared to ambush after being blocked and retreating without knowing how many enemy troops they had, I am afraid that this terrain added a lot of points to Lu Guozhong's confidence.
He didn't know how much damage the Blues had suffered from the faint explosions he had heard as he retreated, but the gunfire of the Blues who had been chasing after him seemed to have become much rarer since then.
Taking advantage of this gap, the two platoons led by Lu Guozhong also quickly distanced themselves from the Blues, and finally chose to fight a counterattack on this slope.
"Lin Zhan, did you make a ghost of the explosion just now? It seems that the effect is very good, and now the blue army in the rear does not dare to catch up, tell me what you are doing. ”
Li Quan lay behind the boulder, and the machine gun in his hand drilled out of the crack in the stone and aimed at the shoal below. Remembering that Lin Zhan was the last to cover the retreat when he had just retreated, he asked casually. As for whether it was the explosion that caused the pursuers to give up the pursuit, he was only guessing.
Could it be that the commander of the other country was blown up? This is only possible, but the probability of such a low probability is also slim.
"It's just a mixed thunder, the time is not rough enough, probably because the other party is too excited. ”
At this time, Lin Zhan didn't realize that the reason why he used a few grenades to mix mines and make the opponent's commander directly beheaded was the reason why the opponent shrank his forces.
"Instructor, it's been over an hour. The Blues will have other plans, otherwise they will have to chase after them sooner rather than later. ”
Not only Lin Zhan, but everyone present now thinks that the blue army has not appeared for so long, so it should not chase after it again, and this ambush can be regarded as a toss-up.
Lu Guozhong was also very depressed, the sun had risen at this time, and the bare mountains and forests were actually quite visible, and there was indeed no trace of the Blue Army in the eyes.
"Correspondent, haven't you been contacted by the brigade headquarters yet? Is there any other way?"
"Report the instructor, due to the loss of relay conduction and electromagnetic countermeasures from the communication command vehicle, it is impossible to restore communications now. ”
Lu Guozhong still didn't understand at this time, the platoon that remained in the predetermined position and waited for the engineer battalion, along with the communication command vehicle, was probably knocked out. Maybe the company commander is also more than lucky.
This also indirectly shows that the engineer battalion is also very likely to be ambushed, and the most important thing now is to return to the rescue.
But I'm afraid that there is also a company of troops in front of me, and I thought that I would set up an ambush here to quickly return to the reinforcements after the remnants of the pursuers, but from the current point of view, the other party must have seen the intention clearly, maybe open their mouths on the road and wait for these two platoons to get into it by themselves.
The situation is also as Lu Guozhong expected. Because the Blues knew that in the case of the Red Army's communication paralysis, they would definitely think that it was caused by the attack on the command vehicle, and that the return of reinforcement was what they had to do. Instead of chasing after others, it is better to stay on the main road and wait for the other party to throw themselves into the net.
This is Yang Mou, even if he sees that the Red Army knows that there is an ambush on the way back, he must fight back.
"Go back, I'm afraid the rest of the road will be much more difficult. ”
Lu Guozhong exchanged his guesses with Li Quan, but there was really only one way to go.
"Communicator, try all channels to call around friendly forces. Now they are all on the bright side, and they don't care about being intercepted by the Blues. It was said that the engineer battalion had been attacked, and asked the friendly forces to counter-encircle the designated place and report the location directly. ”
"Instructor, I have to add a few unwarranted numbers! Since we want to be impotent, then we will contact a few more false troop numbers, regardless of whether he has these troops in this area, since he is not afraid of letting them intercept it, then simply muddy the water. Anyway, I don't believe it's their business.
That's right, let's just say this: the fish has taken the bait, and all the troops are quickly encircled. ”
Lu Guozhong didn't expect that Lin Zhan's whimsical move would cause a big chain reaction, and at this time, Lin Zhan reminded him that it was indeed a good idea.
"College students are college students, and their minds are easy to use, so do it!"
Li Quan hurriedly urged the communicator, and then began to assemble troops. Now he is the only platoon commander of the two platoons, although there is still Lu Guozhong above, but the command is in his hands.
Just as everyone was about to leave the bunker and come out, two soldiers suddenly appeared in front of them. Immediately after entering the communicator's range, his identity was announced.
It turned out that these two were the communication soldiers sent by Zhou Bo. The two men were sent out by the front and rear feet to find contact with the second and third platoons, and finally met while evading the blockade of the Blues.
"Are you saying that Zhou Bo has already taken the remaining platoon to pick up the engineer battalion? Do you want us to break up the whole group to fight guerrillas? What kind of bullshit plan is this, whose idea is this, it's just playing the piano randomly!"
Li Quan scolded the two communication soldiers without even thinking about it.
"This plan was conceived by Yang Buxing, he said that we are just bait here, but in fact, the large army is already on another marching route. ”
These two communication soldiers don't say it's okay, this one is all up and down instantaneously.
"Yang is not hungry? That cooking soldier? Didn't Zhou Bo's brain come out? As the current supreme commander, he actually asked a cooking soldier to make a battle plan! And he carried it out!"
Li Quan was furious, if he remembered correctly, Yang Buxing would only be 18 years old today, and he had been a soldier for less than half a year, and now he actually led the combat plan of a company, and even this plan almost affected the deployment of the entire synthetic brigade.
"Crazy, all crazy!
"Li Quan, you calm down first. In fact, I have just thought about the whole plan in my head, and although this plan is full of loopholes, it cannot be denied that there is no possibility of implementation.
Because there are many intelligence doubts in it, I have discussed it with the company commander before, after all, this mission interferes with the safety of the entire brigade on the march.
It is indeed very unreasonable for the brigade headquarters to order only our company to support the escort. Although there is also the possibility of other friendly troops, don't you think that even if there is friendly support, it is very abnormal for the brigade headquarters not to report the location?
So I think it's really possible that this Yang is not hungry and thinks that we and the engineer battalion are using it as bait. So from this point of view, breaking up the whole into parts is indeed the most efficient thing we can do now. Because whether we meet these two communications soldiers or not, we are also going to go back to fight. ”
Listening to Lu Guozhong's explanation of Li Quan like this, it is indeed impossible to refute it. But thinking that this plan was proposed by Yang Buxing, he felt very uncomfortable.
In this team, Li Quan is not the only one who is uncomfortable. If others don't say it, Lin Zhan alone is very unconvinced. Ever since he met Yang Bu Hung, this limelight seems to have nothing to do with him.
If this time it was really just a bait as expected, then it would be difficult for the reconnaissance company to overpower Yang Buxing in the future.
............ Cut............
The mountains are covered with snow. From the air, each of these mountains seems to look the same. The whole picture stretches out furrows, like the wrinkled old face of an old man, and in the inconspicuous wrinkles on this old face, there seem to be some different things on closer inspection.
Several camouflaged tents were set up side by side along the mountain wall. In front of these tents stood long and short antennas.
In addition to these, several military trucks in the shape of a pot surrounded it, and all other protrusions between the antennas and antennas were shrouded in camouflage nets.
Many soldiers came in and out with papers in a hurry. This is the brigade headquarters command post of the 358th Composite Brigade and the Special Operations Brigade.
Hou Guangjun is the brigade commander of the synthetic brigade. At this moment, he had already received information directly from Zhang Haiying.
On the large screen in front of him was a holographic 3D map, on which two red lines ran through the entire map, but both connected to a single point. On the sides of these two lines are many blue and red symbols.
Obviously, these two red lines are the most likely route for the Red Army to advance after a night of tentative investigation.
"Two companies! Okay, this trick is really wonderful, Zhang Zhijun deserves to be Zhang Zhijun. I really didn't expect to make such a move. The sound hit the west, the strong man broke his wrist, and a machine battalion was used as bait. Had it not been for the foresight to throw two companies and an anti-radiation missile in Line 2, it would have been almost stolen. ”
Hou Guangjun touched his chin and said confidently.
"Guangjun, what's going on? Why is there suddenly two more companies on the No. 2 line, and in addition to the situation reported by the first reconnaissance company just now, they have also encountered at least one company, adding up to just one battalion.
Could it be that this No. 2 line is the route of the Red Army's march this time? What happened to the Jibu battalion that appeared on the No. 1 line? Zhang Zhijun really had such courage?"
As the commander of the special operations brigade, Zhu Baozhang is still confident in intercepting and reconnoitring battlefield communication signals. As early as half an hour ago, the electronic warfare battalion intercepted the communication signal on Line 1, and even mobilized satellites in order to determine the target.
It was eventually confirmed that it was an entire infantry battalion of the Red Army maneuvering. So he thought that Line 1 was the route of the Red Army's march this time.
However, the 358th Brigade found a large number of troops on the second line, which made him hesitate again to implement the plan he had finally made.
Now I have basically determined that the route of the Red Army's march is Line 2.
The Jibu battalion arranged by Zhang Zhijun on the No. 1 line is a real bait. In order to indirectly convince us that the fake decoy on Line 2 is the real bait, and when the time comes, the real bait will take us to run in circles, but the fake bait calmly opens up a smooth road for the Red Army. In terms of scheming, I'm afraid Zhang Zhijun should be the first in our army......"
