blood of vietnam war

Chapter 130 Two Internal Coups

"Boom! Boom..." There was another burst of explosions, and flames erupted from the edge of the cliff again.

Although the incendiary bomb has been used once before, the effect of the incendiary bomb this time is obviously different from the last time.

The difference is this: the last time the incendiary bomb exploded when the vent was closed, this time it exploded when the vent was "cleaned".

Some people may say that if the vent hole is cleaned, wouldn't the effect of the incendiary bomb be bad?At least some of the air can still get into the tunnel!

In terms of air, that's true.After all, if the ventilation hole is clogged with gravel, and once the incendiary bomb is burned, it can almost be said to be tightly sealed, and no air can get in.But if the rubble is cleaned up (some of it was cleaned by the Vietnamese army itself, and the other part was cleaned by the explosive package dropped by our army), then the incendiary agent is at least not attached to the hollow part, In addition, the mountain wind at the cliff is indeed relatively strong, so perhaps a small part of the air will be blown into the tunnel before being burned out.

However, this small amount of air is just a drop in the bucket for the tunnel, and more importantly... because the vent hole is already hollow at this time, when the incendiary bomb explodes outside the vent hole, it will Spray part of the incendiary into the tunnel...

Imagine, it's like someone hangs a lighted firecracker outside your open window. It's hard for something as big as a firecracker to be blasted into the window, not to mention that there is an explosive force outside the vent. A much stronger incendiary bomb.

This is the most powerful thing, which is what I said before, "lighting the fire in the tunnel".

If the incendiary bomb is only burned outside the tunnel, it can only prevent the outside air from entering the tunnel, but it cannot consume the oxygen in the tunnel.But it's different if it's burned in a tunnel...

The Yue Guizi are now asking for their own blessings. If they didn’t put any flammable and explosive items such as shell boxes, clothes, ammunition, etc. near the ventilation holes, that would be fine. The flammable agent sprayed into the tunnel by the air hole is enough to start another fire in the tunnel.

After a while, there were faint screams and panic from below, so I knew... It is very likely that the tunnel has caught fire as I imagined.

Anyone come to put out the fire?I'm sorry... I didn't wait for this batch of incendiary bombs to burn out, so I went down another batch with a wave of my hand.

"Boom! Boom..." There was another explosion and flames.

Now if there is a Yue Guizi who puts out the fire at the ventilation hole, he will be miserable, because he will soon become a fire man.

Sure enough, there were screams and screams coming from the bottom of the tunnel. I have seen what it is like to be set alight by an incendiary bomb. It's the death struggle of the Viet Cong... So, I'm not unfamiliar with this kind of shouting, and of course I know that these people who are set on fire will run around in pain...

"Bang bang..." At this moment, several gunshots came from below.

All right!The Yue Devils were ruthless enough, they solved the problem with guns.But this is indeed a good method. On the one hand, it can reduce the pain of comrades-in-arms, and more importantly...it can prevent those Vietnamese troops who are on fire from taking the fire to other places.

But does it work?

Yue Guizi is still a dead end. The current situation is... as long as we have enough incendiary bombs, we can keep burning this fire.And the Vietnamese army... they couldn't even put out the fire, because the result of putting out the fire... would probably turn themselves into a fire.

What will be the final outcome?The ones who know the most should be the ghosts in the tunnel.

Maybe those shrill shouts evoked my memories and inspired my inner pity. I didn't immediately let the next batch of incendiary bombs continue to drop, but raised the small horn and shouted downward: "The last time! Opportunity! Hand in your guns and don’t kill them, the Chinese treat prisoners leniently!”

There was a commotion in the tunnel soon, and this time, the Vietnamese army knew that I wasn't trying to scare them.

Either die, or come out and surrender, they have only two ways to go.

I waited for a while, but I didn't get an answer. All I got was gunshots and screams from below...

What happened?I also feel a little baffled by this.

But after thinking about it, I quickly understood: the Vietnamese army in the tunnel had conflicts, some were ready to surrender, and the other vowed not to surrender, so they became a group.

"Platoon Leader Yang!" At this moment, Company Commander Wu stepped forward and reported, "The two hundred incendiary bombs sent from the camp have also arrived!"

"Hmm!" I nodded.

In fact, another reason why I postponed the attack was because the incendiary bombs in my hand were almost used up.Originally we only had [-] rounds, but we had to deal with Yue Guizi with five air holes and three tunnel entrances. The average batch would be almost eight... Here it is almost because the tunnel entrance can use less. After all That direction is not the focus of our attack, and it is really impossible to use a hollow bamboo to guide the gasoline to the tunnel mouth to burn it, and the effect is the same.

So after these batches, the incendiary bombs have been used up. At this time, when I heard that the incendiary bombs from the battalion headquarters had arrived, I couldn't help but feel relieved... What if I can't kill you now?My surname is no longer Yang!

"Platoon Leader Yang, I have a request... I don't know..."

I was taken aback when I heard Company Commander Wu's words. He is a company commander, and he even talked to me like a subordinate to a superior.

"Company Commander Wu, you are offended by saying that!" I said, "If you have anything to say, just say it, and I will help you if you can help!"

"I hope..." Company Commander Wu said hesitantly: "I hope that when we enter the tunnel later, we can connect together!"

"Hmm!" I couldn't help but frowned when I heard this: "Company Commander Wu, you're embarrassing me. It's very likely that the regiment-level headquarters of Yue Guizi is hiding here. What about the fish. If you go straight to..."

"That's true!" When I said this, Company Commander Wu sighed, "I'm so confused, my comrades sacrificed so much..."

"Understandable!" I patted Company Commander Wu on the shoulder, thought for a while, then pointed to the incendiary bombs beside him and said to Company Commander Wu: "But...if you want, I will hand over these incendiary bombs to you later! "

"Really...really?" Company Commander Wu's eyes lit up when I said that, and then he shook my hand heavily and said, "Thank you! Thank you so much... I thank you for the comrades who sacrificed for my subordinates! Thank you, Platoon Leader Yang..."

In the end, Lianchang Wu's eyes turned red, maybe to prevent me from seeing the tears in his eyes, he turned and left before I could respond.

I can understand Company Commander Wu's mood. I fought like this myself on the battlefield. No matter whether I am timid or afraid of death, when I know that so many soldiers under my command or comrades around me have died, I will feel a sense of relief. Only one word comes to mind: "Kill!"

Soon the soldiers of the company heard the news. They were all downcast and carrying ammunition, but now they all clenched their fists like a shot in the arm, and looked at me with gratitude ...

There was only the third battalion commander... who was sullenly hiding in a corner smoking a cigarette, not even daring to look in my direction.

Of course, the commander of the third battalion will not have a good time. You said that the same task was given to him, and more than [-] people were sacrificed without even getting a chance. There was not a single casualty, and the Yue Devils were completely suppressed, and the Yue Devils had no power to fight back... If the news spread, then he, the Battalion Commander, would not want to do it.

Isn't it?Now even his soldiers... Company Commander Wu and his subordinates are even more willing to listen to my orders than to take the Third Battalion Commander seriously, which shows a problem: his prestige is completely gone.

But there's nothing I can do about it. I have no intention of comforting him, and I don't even want to say good things for him in the future.Because I think that people like him should be dismissed, otherwise it will only kill more soldiers.

After a while, Company Commander Wu came up with his soldiers. They cut the ropes and tied the bombs, and after a while, they were ready like us.

"Platoon Leader Yang, can we do something?" Company Commander Wu asked.

"Wait a little longer!" I was a little embarrassed, because a company commander actually came to ask me the platoon leader's instructions.

"Yes!" Unexpectedly, Company Commander Wu responded very simply and naturally.

But there is a reason for me to ask Company Commander Wu to wait a little longer, because there is obviously internal strife in the tunnel at this moment... When the enemy is fighting in the nest, we'd better wait and see from the other side, otherwise, at this time, shoot a few shells down and say No way, the Yue Guizi will become one again.

At this time, I was a little worried, what if the capitulators had the upper hand?What if the Yue Guizi came out and surrendered?Didn't Company Commander Wu and his subordinates even have a chance to fight?

However, this possibility does not seem to be great. Judging from my past contact with Yue Guizi, many times they would rather die than surrender.

After more than ten minutes, the tunnel below gradually returned to calm, and I raised the horn again and shouted inside: "Comrades of the Vietnamese Army, come out and surrender! This is the last chance..."

When I shouted this sentence, I felt a bit like a bad businessman... The only difference is that they always shouted: "Jump price, the last day!", but I was shouting: "Surrender! Last chance !"

In fact, I have no hope for the Vietnamese army. I can even say that I don't want them to surrender. I think Company Commander Wu and the others are the same.

However, at this time, the voice of Yue Guizi came from the tunnel entrance: "Don't shoot, comrades of the People's Liberation Army... we surrender, don't shoot!" (To be continued.)
