blood of vietnam war

Chapter 160 Unexpected Target

five to seven days...

Warriors know what the number five to seven days means to us.

We were a penetrating force, and penetrating meant that we carried only a small amount of ammunition and food with us, which would only last us a day or two at most.

At this time, it was decided that the interspersed troops had to march in a hurry. At that time, the order given to us by our superiors was: we must use the fastest speed to intersect to the designated position.

Since we need to use the fastest speed... then we can only move forward lightly, so we can only carry limited ammunition and food on our bodies. In many cases, we even have to choose between ammunition and food: we need to bring an extra magazine Woolen cloth?Or bring an extra pack of compressed biscuits?

And because we are actually trapped in the encirclement of the Vietnamese army... Now the situation is that the main force of our army surrounded the Vietnamese army in the general direction, and the Vietnamese army surrounded us in the small direction of the pass.Therefore, it is impossible for us to get any supplies.

In other words, this is telling us that we will soon be in a situation where we will run out of food and ammunition.

The first thing we did was to search the 217 highlands and the canyons of the pass.Fortunately, we found a batch of ammunition in the "T" shaped fortification on the high ground, and another batch in a cave in the canyon.

After all, the 217 highlands and canyons are important military sites used by the Vietnamese army to prevent our army from passing through. The Vietnamese army also knows that there must be no shortage of ammunition in these two places, otherwise this pass is not a natural danger.Therefore, a large amount of ammunition was prepared in advance at these two positions.Coupled with the suddenness of our army's attack this time, it can almost be said that the two positions were easily taken down before the Vietnamese army reacted, so the Vietnamese army did not even have time to destroy these ammunition...

This at least puts us off worrying about ammo for the time being.Of course, no one knows how long these ammunition can last... This is not decided by us, but by the 316a division of the Vietnamese army besieged by us. The intensity of their charge determines the consumption rate of our ammunition.

Unfortunately, we did not find much food in these magazines.In the end, it was Chen Yiyi who dug out several bags of rice and a box of compressed biscuits in the corner of an A-shaped fortification... and what made people speechless was that the words "Made in China" were printed on the packaging bags of these things.

At the beginning, we were still wondering, since the Vietnamese army planned to be stationed here for a long time, why didn't they prepare food... After all, the soldiers of a company consume a lot of food, don't they?

Then we soon knew the reason: it wasn't that the Vietnamese army didn't prepare food, but that they simply didn't have any extra food for them to prepare.

Just imagine, these Vietnamese soldiers were so poor that they were reluctant to wear their shoes because they were worried that their shoes would be worn out even when they went to the battlefield. How much food would there be for them to eat.

The irony is...they were poor enough to eat and keep warm, yet they had plenty of good weapons.This is of course related to the military assistance from the Soviet Union and China to them, but it also explains Vietnam's militarism from another aspect.

After searching the 217 highlands, the next step is to assign the tasks of each unit according to the order of the head of the regiment.

This is of course very important, because the 217 highlands and canyons simply cannot accommodate our hundreds of people, and it is impossible for us to squeeze all these hundreds of people on the 217 highlands... When the devil fired a round of ammunition at us, a large area was blown down.

The regiment leader's arrangement is as follows: a company is allocated in the direction of the 217 highland and the canyon, and another company is allocated in the 179 highland in the other direction, and one company is used as a reserve team.Considering that the main attack direction of the Vietnamese army must be the 217 highland and the canyon of the pass, the remaining company will be used as a replacement force for the 217 highland, and the soldiers on the 217 highland will be replaced to rest if necessary.

Hill 217, Hill 179, and Hill 2681, which is a cliff, just form a large triangular area. There is only a big gap in the west... The regiment leader arranged three tanks and one infantry to block it here. gap, the other two tanks were placed in the direction of the canyon.

So... We seem to use the terrain to enclose an open space in the middle, and this open space is used to store regiment fingers, wounded, logistics personnel, and a small number of mortar troops.

This kind of troop allocation is of course reasonable, and these deployments seem to be subconscious decisions of the regiment leader, and they were completed in an orderly manner within a short period of time... From this, we can also see the regiment commander's military quality and command The ability is still pretty good.

But this does not seem to be surprising, because the troops used by our army to intersperse have always been troops that are good at fighting hard and hard battles, and their commanders must of course have certain capabilities.

Of course, our company was the first to be stationed on the 217th highland... According to the head of the regiment, let us fight a few battles on the 217th highland first, so that his soldiers can study hard.Of course, this is a compliment to us... But it makes sense for us to be the first batch to be stationed on the 217 highland. After all, we just fought a battle on the 217 highland and are familiar with the terrain.Moreover, switching defenses against the enemy can easily cause confusion, after all, the troops in the rear are busy at this time.

So we were facing the 316a Division of the Vietnamese Army on the other side at the top of the mountain... To be honest, this scene is really scary. Looking at the past, there is a dense mass of Vietnamese troops.It would be fine if this was an ordinary Vietnamese army unit, but this is still the 316a division of the Vietnamese army... and it is still the 316a division that is desperate.

Why are they so angry?Of course it's because they didn't expect... our army that was besieged by them, this army that they used as a bait, this army that they could have wiped out but were too lazy to do it before... could actually be able to do it before they reacted. broke through their encirclement and cut off their retreat.

I later learned that the reason why the Vietnamese army was in a state of panic was not only because of this, but also because they had received information... The army that ruined their good deeds was the one that repelled them on Dai Nai Mountain.

In just a few days, their 316a division, which is known as the ace unit of the Vietnamese army, fell twice in a row. How could they not let them get angry.

Of course, on the other hand... the angrier the enemy is, the happier we are.

"Look..." Wang Kechang smiled while holding up his binoculars, "The Yue Guizi is jumping in anger!"

"Is there? Let me see!"

"let me see!"

……

The soldiers gathered together like curious children to grab Wang Kechang's binoculars.

"Hey, it's true!" Xiao Shitou looked at him and said with a smile: "There is another Yue Gui who has been criticized, maybe it's because he lost his position!"

"That's not it?" The soldiers around laughed together: "Not only have you lost your position, but now it is a problem to escape, and it would be strange not to be criticized!"

"Criticized?" I couldn't help but be taken aback when I heard this.

Most of the Vietnamese troops on the 217th highland were killed by us on the highland. Even if the commander escaped...then it is impossible to escape to the other side. The reason is very simple. The pass was later occupied by our army.

Then... the Yue Guizi who was criticized should not be the commander of this position, but the superior of this unit.

The Vietnamese Army on Highland 217 has a company. Their direct commander should be the company commander, so his superior should be the battalion commander...a battalion commander is still criticized, and the one who criticizes him...what kind of officer should it be? Woolen cloth?

Thinking of this, I immediately raised my binoculars and asked, "Where is it?"

"What?" Wang Kechang was a little puzzled by my question.

"That devil who was criticized!"

"Oh!" Wang Kechang responded, then pointed to a location and said, "Over there, at two o'clock!"

Looking in the direction Wang Kechang pointed, he saw a Vietnamese army officer swearing. Although his attire was very ordinary, he had no collar or epaulettes, and he didn't even buckle his armed belt, only a straw hat was casually buttoned on his head. Helmet with a special shape... I think this is the reason why he dared to go to the front line. Maybe he thought that no one would recognize him as an officer, or because of the huge change on the battlefield. Or it can also be said that the failure disrupted the situation, so I came to this line to see the situation in person.

I looked around this guy, walked around a few guards intentionally or unintentionally, and saw the Vietnamese army officer who was scolded in front of him like a bloody sprinkler, who didn't even dare to fart... It made me more sure of him The identity is not simple.

So I put down the binoculars and ran forward a few meters with my waist bent, and set up a rifle on a protruding stone.

For me... Even if that guy is not someone important, it's just a waste of a bullet, right?It can even be said that even if you miss, there is no loss.It's like buying a lottery ticket with a few dollars, but it is possible to win a multi-million jackpot... Of course I don't want to miss such a good thing.

The soldiers also knew what I wanted to do, so they all cooperated very well and quieted down.

Of course, I don't have the mind to pay attention to them now, all my attention is focused on the Vietnamese soldier who is losing his temper.

The target is about 800 meters away... This distance makes me only see a small point even with a sniper scope.

But...if it wasn't for this distance, I'm afraid this guy wouldn't be able to swear at others with confidence!

What makes me even more troublesome is... the terrain on this road is very complicated. The mountain wind blows to the east, but there will be a valley mouth and a mountain depression on the way.

What does passing through Taniguchi represent?It means that the mountain wind has found an exit in this part, and it will be more urgent and fierce.

What does the col represent?It means that the mountain wind will be blocked here, so it will change its direction and even return...

These are all things I want to consider, since they all affect the flight of the bullet.So I knew that it was actually more suitable to use mortars for a bombing at this time, but I knew that the opportunity would be fleeting... When I notify the mortar troops and let them adjust the elements, I am afraid that this guy will die sooner or later. all gone.

So, I had to try to shoot this shot... (To be continued.)
