The 252nd regiment marched to the 365 highland under the leadership of the group leader Sun Siming. The highland jungles on both sides of the Siam-Lao Highway are densely covered, and the jungles here are all tropical jungles. There are many winding plants in the tropical jungles. Most of these plants are rattan. On the Wangtian tree, which is more than 50 meters high, vines hang down and block the road. If people want to pass, they can only chop off the vines with a machete.

In order to achieve the purpose of surprise attack, the 252nd regiment chose to touch it from the inaccessible tropical forest, so the soldiers held machetes and opened the way in the tropical forest. From time to time, they encountered several rushing streams, and the soldiers swam across.

After marching for more than three hours, Height 365 finally appeared in front of us, but at this moment, a soldier suddenly screamed and fell down. The regiment leader, Sun Siming, was nearby, and hurried over, only to see a steel trap It was firmly stuck on the soldier's calf, the steel teeth bit into the flesh, and blood flowed out.

Sun Siming hastily called for someone to open the trap. The trap was so tight that four people worked together to break it open. The medic bandaged the wounded soldier. The wounded soldier endured the pain and said, "Commander, that trap must be It was released by the war elephant army in Siam."

Sun Siming asked, "How can you be sure it wasn't released by a hunter?"

The soldier said: "You can look at the trap, it is painted green. How can any hunter paint the trap? It must be the people of the War Elephant Legion who are worried that someone will see the trap, so they painted the color." .”

Sun Siming had a thought, and thought: "This soldier is right. This trap was not set by a hunter. This is a deserted place. The War Elephant Legion actually put a trap here. It is obviously because they are worried that someone will approach the 365 Heights. This shows that they The vigilance is very high."

Sun Siming was thinking, when the injured soldier suddenly convulsed, foamed at the mouth, and soon fell into a coma, Sun Siming hurriedly asked the military doctor: "What's going on?"

The military doctor said: "I'm not sure what's going on. I think the biggest possibility is that some kind of poison was applied to the trap. There are many poisonous animals and plants in the tropical rainforest, and we can't determine the species."

Sun Siming asked: "Then is this soldier in danger?"

The military doctor shook his head again and said he didn't know. Sun Siming thought for a while and said, "Send two soldiers and send him back to the field hospital in the rear." The military doctor then sent two soldiers to evacuate the injured soldier. There are countless ways to set traps in the rainforest, and we are about to reach the 365 highland, I don’t know what the war elephant army has prepared for us, if we go forward, we will definitely suffer heavy casualties.”

Thinking of this, Sun Siming waved his hands and said to everyone, "Let's go back first!"

A battalion commander passed by and said, "Commander? Are we really going back? It took us a lot of time to get here."

Sun Siming frowned and said: "The War Elephant Legion set up a trap for us. We would be fools if we forced our way into it! Let's retreat first."

The battalion commander then led everyone back to the camp by the same route. On the way back, two more soldiers triggered the trap and died on the spot. He died within a few minutes, and the doctors in the camp did not know what poison the Siamese army was using. The two soldiers who escorted them were very excited to see their comrades sacrificed, and made a big fuss in the hospital.

Sun Siming reprimanded the two soldiers and asked them to go to the hospital to apologize to the doctors and nurses. The two soldiers came back and told Sun Siming: "The 251st and 250th regiments sent more people. It is right for our regiment to withdraw!"

At about ten o'clock in the evening, the 251st and 250th regiments also withdrew one after another, because they were also intercepted by the trap of the War Elephant Legion. The two regiments killed more than 40 soldiers and injured more than 70 soldiers. The three regiments reported the results To the division commander Yun Tiangang, as soon as Yun Tian heard the battle report, he slapped the table loudly and scolded: "Look at the 29th Division, they put down Beijiang without firing a lot of shots. Look at the 60th Division, they destroyed Vientiane in one battle. The siege was resolved, our 28th division is good, more than 100 casualties were lost without even seeing the Siamese! Tell Sun Siming and them, take the highland group for me within 24 hours, if you can’t take it down, they will all get rid In military uniform, go to Yunnan Safari Park to raise elephants!"

As soon as Yuntian scolded the three regiment leaders, he called Lin Yuan and reported the loss. Lin Yuan thought for a while and said, "You might as well attack the highland group in a different way. It's good that you want to use infiltration and sneak attack, but there is one thing. : You are good at infiltration and sneak attacks, and the War Elephant Army is also good at infiltration and sneak attacks. You know how to set traps, and the War Elephant Army also understands."

"So, your current style of play is to hit the enemy's blade with the blade. Even if we cut off the opponent's blade, our blade will collapse. Why don't we cut the blade against the enemy's soft belly and neck?"

As soon as Yun Tian heard what Lin Yuan said, he immediately said: "Shuai Lin, you want us to use our strengths to attack the opponent's weaknesses. I understand, and I will do it now."

Yun Tiangang immediately ordered: the 250th regiment attacked Dayang Town and blocked the Siamese reinforcements, the 251st and 252nd regiments pushed along the road between the highland groups, opened the way with tanks, followed by self-propelled mortars, and encountered war elephants on the highlands The Legion first throws a base number of shells over there!

The three regiments dispatched separately after receiving the order. Dayang Town was the first to ignite the flames of war. The light 250mm howitzer battalion of the whole regiment was transferred over and blasted at Dayang Town.

Although the Siamese army had the support of the British, it was still very weak. They had no concrete to build their fortifications. They could only use earth and mud. A single shell could blow up a bunker. The shelling lasted for ten hours, and the entire town of Dayang It became an empty city.The artillery fire of Lin Yuan's troops was unparalleled in the world, and the British could not match it. The Siamese army had never seen such bombardment at all-the shells had almost no intervals, and the explosion almost never stopped.

So the army and residents of Dayang Town fled one after another, only hating their parents for giving birth to two legs for themselves!While Dayang Town was being bombarded, the Highland Group was also under fire. The newly formed third Air Division flew over the Highland Group again and again, throwing tons and tons of black ladder mixed explosives on the Siamese army.

Sun Siming looked at the fireballs bursting out from time to time on the highland group and thought to himself: "Isn't the War Elephant Army good at fighting in the jungle? Well, we will not compete with you in jungle warfare, we will compete with you in firepower. Under the leadership of the leader, we will compete with you in whichever you are weak in!"
