Age of Rebirth

In Trusun, the central area of ​​Sumatra Island, where the headquarters of the Corps directly under the Independent Division is located, it is already mid-June, and the island is full of tropical heat. Although there are tall tropical trees everywhere, covering the scorching sun, it still It was unnervingly hot.

The independent division refers to the chief of staff, Zhao Yu, and the major general, who are very busy. Even though they keep shaking their fans, their uniforms are still wet with sweat. In order to fight with more than a dozen brigades, they also need to comprehensively deal with the telegrams of several other corps, understand the progress of the battle on each battlefield, make timely handling opinions, and report the situation on the battlefield to the division commander.

Before the division commander Tang Qiuli and division finger arrived, Zhao Yuhe actually played the role of the frontline commander and couldn't sleep for a few hours a day. Less than a week after the start of the Southwest Pacific campaign, he was very thin It's been a while, but it's full of energy.

In the past two days, the telegrams received by various corps made Zhao Yuhe somewhat uneasy, "The division pointed out that the Japanese troops who fought with our corps retreated frequently, but on the front line, there appeared a group of soldiers with the codename 'Southwest of the Great Japanese Empire'." The puppet troops of the Pacific Royal Association's designation, the equipment and combat effectiveness of this part of the puppet troops are quite powerful."

"In addition, most of the soldiers of the puppet army are locals, familiar with the geographical situation, adopting the tactics of running away if they can't fight, and instead attack our logistics supply line, as well as non-combat troops such as rear hospitals. This has caused great difficulties for our army to advance. Troop casualties are also increasing!"

If it was in one place, a puppet army with the designation of the "Great Japanese Empire Southwest Pacific Imperial Association Army" would not be a problem, but all the attacking troops found similar situations, which made Zhao Yuhe very vigilant.

In particular, the continuous retreat of the Japanese troops was linked to the sudden requisition of a large number of ships and even fishing boats by the Japanese troops on various islands. Zhao Yuhe can be sure that there must be a conspiracy by the Japanese.

However, without knowing the actual situation of multiple battlefields, it is difficult for Zhao Yuhe to make a judgment as to what the Japanese conspiracy is, and he cannot report the ambiguous situation to the division commander. The appearance of these puppet troops caused the greatest This is one of the main reasons why he strongly suggested that the division commander and division commanders stay in Bagan Abi to command operations.

A staff officer came in, "Report to the chief of staff, the teacher has returned the telegram!" Then, he handed a telegram to Zhao Yuhe.

After reading the telegram, Zhao Yuhe frowned. From Bagan Yabi to Truusan, the journey of more than 100 kilometers was absolutely not safe. The road was covered with dense tropical rainforest, and the terrain conditions were extremely complicated. After the troops swept over, it was impossible to ensure that all the Japanese troops were wiped out. There must be stragglers, so they hid in the rainforest!

Especially on the island of Sumatra, puppet troops of the "Imperial Japan Southwest Pacific Imperial Association Army" also appeared. Zhao Yuhe has received reports from several brigades that the logistics supply convoy was attacked and supplies were robbed. Go, the vehicles were burned, and all the escorted soldiers were sacrificed, but when the large troops arrived, they could only see the burning vehicles, the bloody corpses of the soldiers, and no trace of the attackers.

Because on Sumatra Island, more than a dozen brigades directly under the Corps are pursuing the Japanese army on the island at a critical juncture. Difficult, Zhao Yuhe can't mobilize troops temporarily to stabilize the rear.

Now, the teacher and the teacher pointed out that they had already set off from Bagan Abi to Trusan, how could Zhao Yuhe rest assured?

Zhao Yuhe looked at the map. Along the way from Trusan to Bagan Yabi, the troops of the Ninth Brigade Xiao Jinshan were the closest. "No, we must send troops to support the division commander!" There are two detachments in the brigade, with more than 700 troops guarding them. Moreover, the combat effectiveness of the guard brigade is second to none, but there is an accident in everything. The puppet troops that suddenly appeared made him worry.

"Order, Brigade Commander Xiao Jinshan of the Ninth Brigade, your department immediately dispatched a reinforced battalion, armed with the necessary heavy weapons, and rushed to the Dingyi area to meet and protect the division commander and division commanders, and arrived in Trusan smoothly!" Zhao said. Yuhe told the combat staff that based on the departure time of the division commander, it should be camped in the Tinggi area tonight, which is the most unsafe area along the way.

"Also, report the arrangement of the frontline headquarters to the division commander!" After giving the order to Xiao Jinshan, Zhao Yuhe was still not at ease, and he said to a staff officer: "You call the special warfare detachment Chutian detachment Commander, come to the command post immediately!"

Chu Tian, ​​the leader of the special warfare detachment, led two special warfare detachments, more than 300 special warfare members, and rested in Trusun. Since the troops successfully landed on Sumatra Island, the mission of the special warfare detachment to infiltrate the team has been completed. , and the rest was to guide the way for the attacking troops directly under the corps, so Chutian gathered the two teams that had no mission and were nearby to rest.

After receiving Zhao Yuhe's call, Chu Tian drove a military jeep and flew to the Corps headquarters. As soon as he entered the stuffy room, he wiped the sweat off his face and asked, "Chief Zhao, is there a hurry?" Find me, is there any urgent task?"

Zhao Yuhe said hastily: "Captain Chu, there is an important task that needs to be carried out by your special warfare detachment. How many troops do you have now?"

"There are 360 ​​and eight people in two teams!" Chu Tian replied concisely, "Chief of Staff, give the order!"

"Okay!" Zhao Yuhe pointed to the map and said, "Captain Chu, I just received a telegram that the division commander and the division command staff have already set off from Bagan Abi to Trusan, and it is estimated that they will be in Dingyi tonight. Camping, you also know that this road is not safe, although I have arranged for Xiao Jinshan's Ninth Brigade to send a reinforced battalion to Dingyi, but I am still worried!"

"Xiao Jinshan's troops are too far away from Dingyi, and they can't arrive within seven or eight hours. The division commander only has more than 700 troops from the two guard brigades. So, you lead all the special forces in your hands, and set off immediately. Dingyi, it's better to follow the route that the commander came to Truusan, and meet the commander before the commander arrives in Dingyi, it's safer!"

"Okay! I'll lead the team and set off right away!" Chutian didn't hesitate at all. After more than 20 minutes, a team composed of two-wheeled and three-wheeled motorcycles left Trusan like lightning and plunged into the dense forest. Among the tropical rainforest!

That’s right, it’s a motorcycle. In the tropical rainforest of Sumatra, there are mud everywhere, and the road conditions are extremely bad. Motorcycles are lighter and more flexible than trucks and jeeps, and adapt to the road conditions. This is Chutian’s own experience.

Before setting off, Chu Tian was more thoughtful. He ordered the special forces team members to bring light machine guns, mortars, or recoil guns and other infantry heavy equipment on each three-wheeled motorcycle. With more carrying, the current two special warfare detachments are definitely the firepower scale of a heavy infantry reinforcement battalion, or even surpassed.

The side that can't be seen at a glance is still green, so green that people have a sense of oppression. This is the tropical rainforest, a road that has been counted, trucks, guns and tanks, and crushed, which greatly affects the speed of the convoy. , although the sun can't directly shine down, the weather is suffocatingly hot.

"This terrible weather!" Shanhu opened the collar of his tropical combat uniform, touched the hot sweat on his face, and complained, "Xiaoqiu, I really miss the weather in June in the Northeast of our hometown, how good it is, Neither cold nor hot, the sun is shining brightly, the warm breeze blows, the pores and eyes of the whole body are opened, and the comfort in my heart is not like here, it is like staying in a steamer, I have never broken my sweat !"

Tang Qiuli didn't answer Shan Hu's words. He was reading the telegram from Zhao Yuhe. After reading it, he handed it to Shan Hu and said, "Huzi, Chief of Staff Zhao is too careful. No, it's not good for us. Don’t worry about our safety, let Xiao Jinshan send a reinforced battalion to meet us, do you think it’s necessary? From here to Trusan, it’s our rear!”

Regarding Tang Qiuli's safety issue, Shan Hu's consistent principle is that the safer the better, he immediately said: "It is absolutely necessary, even if Chief of Staff Zhao sends a brigade of troops to meet us, I agree with both hands! Your safety First!"

Tang Qiuliyu changed the subject, "Huzi, the army's marching speed is not enough. According to this speed, it may take more than nine o'clock in the evening to reach Dingyi. You order the troops to increase their marching speed and try to reach Dingyi before the sun sets. !"

Shan Hu rolled his big eyes, his eyes looked like he was looking at Xiaobai on the battlefield, and said very eloquently: "My lord, don't you see what kind of road this is, can you get it? I even flipped over a car just now, but fortunately my soldiers were good enough to jump out of the car early and no one was hurt!"

"Puchi!" The jeep jolted violently, splashing a ball of mud, which just landed on Shan Hu's rather proud face, "Bah, bah!" Shan Hu wiped off the mud on his face, and said angrily, "What the hell!" bad luck!"

Seeing Shanhu's colorful face, Tang Qiuli was so happy that he leaned back and forth, causing Shanhu to roll his eyes angrily.

After more than an hour, a mountain ridge full of tall trees appeared in front of the convoy. The muddy road turned here and stretched to the green distance. Suddenly, with eyes closed, a sleepy mountain tiger suddenly He opened his eyes, showing his murderous intent, quickly picked up the walkie-talkie, and shouted: "Stop immediately, everyone is ready to fight!" After speaking, he grabbed Tang Qiuli and jumped out of the car regardless.

Tang Qiuli, who was pulled out of the jeep by Shanhu, was pressed under him again. Although he couldn't see or hear anything for the time being, Tang Qiuli could already smell the strong smell of blood in the stuffy air. permeate it.
