The beacon of youth

Liu Kan at the foot of Gongshan Mountain is organizing a meeting of senior military officers. One of the officers suggested that the Mak's Death Squad take advantage of the cover of the night to ambush in advance.

As soon as the officer finished speaking, Liu Kan clapped his hands a few times and said, "Brother's advice, that's it. In view of the importance of this small army, I think it should all be composed of officers. Let's draw out troops from each army. A death squad composed of lower-ranking officers, first lurking in the past, and after the battle starts, they will take the lead in attacking, and if they fail, they will succeed.

On the Chakou Independence Regiment's position, the Fifth Battalion Commander Wang Huo, who hadn't gone back to sleep, kept smoking his morning cigarette pot. I don't know what happened tonight, but it felt a little strange and wrong, but now it's past midnight. There is still no movement at the foot of the mountain. Is there something wrong with my own feeling?Or too paranoid?Veterans have a keen sense of experience on the battlefield, which is a unique ability that those veterans who have experienced battles cannot express.

Wang Huo, who kept looking at his watch, finally made a decision. He sent soldiers to call Gao Xiang, the battalion commander of the artillery battalion. Several soldiers from the battalion were dragged to the command post of Wang Huo, the first line.

The guy rubbed his eyes and asked, "What's the matter, tiger? Why did you bring me here? I haven't slept well for several days. Is there any big problem that you can't solve and come to me again?"

Wang Huhu is a little funny. You said that Gao Xiang always regards himself as a big cadre. What big problem can't be solved? What big problem can you solve?However, Wang Huo also admitted that Gao Xiang was a very good old soldier and commander. He did not say anything about the war, and the troops he brought out were just like him, sophisticated, cunning and ruthless.

"Gao Xiang, I always feel something is wrong today. The enemy at the bottom of the mountain is a little too quiet. I have been observing here, and I haven't seen anything after watching it for most of the night. I want you to come and give me some advice.

Hearing what Wang Huo said, Gao Xiang's drowsiness disappeared immediately. He has been with Wang Huo for many years, and he knows Wang Huo's character very well. This is how it is done.

Gao Xiang took the binoculars handed over by Wang Huo and looked down the mountain. It was so dark that he couldn't see anything clearly. Gao Xiang exchanged the binoculars to Wang Huo and thought for a while: "Tiger, it's too dark, I can't see anything, can't you Do you suspect any sudden action by the enemy tonight?" [

Wang Huo: "That's right, that's what it means. I want you to help me out with ideas."

Gao Xiang: "Night battles are our People's Liberation Army's forte. It is our ability to suppress the bottom of the box, but we can't prevent the enemies down the mountain from jumping over the wall. A sneak attack on our forward positions is not guaranteed."

After listening to Gao Xiang's analysis, Wang Huo nodded.Gao Xiang continued to analyze: "Tiger, what method do you think the enemy will use if they want to sneak attack on us?

Wang Huo: "Is there any way to use the cover of the sky to touch it bit by bit, and then give us a surprise attack

Gao Xiang: "It makes sense, but what distance is better for the enemy to touch, so that we can not be discovered by us and can achieve the suddenness of the battle

Wang Huo: "It's too far away, it will waste time, and it's too close, it's easy to be spotted by the defenders on the mountain. The best distance is about 200 to 200 meters, yes, it should be [-] meters.

Gao Xiang: "Tiger, you mean that the best lurking distance for the enemy to attack us is about two hundred meters, are you sure?"

Wang Huo said affirmatively: "Yes, this is the distance, too far will not work, too close will not work.

Gao Xiang looked at the watch on his wrist: "Tiger, it's almost one o'clock in the morning. If the enemy wants to sneak attack, they should enter the position now."

Hearing Gao Xiang's words, Wang Huo shook his body: "Gao Xiang, you mean that the enemy may touch our position less than 200 meters away?

Gao Xiang: "Tiger, if your feeling is true, then it is very possible

Wang Huo thought for a few minutes and then said to Gao Xiang: "Gao Xiang, how many guns do you have in your battalion? .

Gao Xiang: "Tiger, we don't have many guns. Now each gun only has [-] rounds. This is what the regiment commander told us to save. You should feel it during the day. Our guns are much less.

Wang Huo: "Gao Xiang, wake up the head of the regiment. You drag an artillery squad over here. Each cannon will drop a few shots down the mountain. There is no other way. The distance is about [-] meters. Our grenades can't reach it. Only let you try

Gao Xiang: "Okay, Tiger, you wait here, I'll go back and find the team leader right away."

Gao Xiang followed the semi-open traffic trench back to the big cave on the back of the mountain.

Li Yuming led the soldiers of the guard company to dig a smaller cave for each of Li Yong and the political patients in the innermost part of the big cave of the regiment headquarters. The place where the soldiers slept was slightly more spacious.

A deadly horse lantern hung in the small cave where the group leader Li Yong slept, the flames were dimly adjusted by Li Yuming, Li Yong was sleeping soundly, and Li Yong in his dream returned to his hometown in his previous life.

One day in summer, the temperature was 35-[-] degrees. Li Yong came to Haibin Bathing Beach, his familiar hometown, with blue sky, white clouds, and sandy beach. Occasionally, there is a small stone in the sandy beach. You turn over this stone, It is very likely that there is a sea crab with two large pincers dancing underneath.

But be careful when grabbing, start from behind.Otherwise, your hand will be pinched.Turn over a few more stones and you can have a seafood feast.

The sea is so cool. Li Yong, who was tired from swimming, lay under a big parasol and looked at the men, women and children in the sea. Of course, this guy's eyes were more on those beautiful women, Chinese, foreigners, yellow Skin, white skin, dark skin, Li Yong's eyes are not enough.

But after observing and observing, Li Yong still thinks that our Chinese women are the most beautiful, what kind of blondes, dark-skinned black pearls, they are all literati who have nothing to do and have enough to eat. Yes, it’s far worse when you get close. The skin of some European and American women is incomparable with the skin of Chinese women. The skin of foreign women wearing three-point style is flushed by the sun, and the hairy eyes are as big as those made of pigskin. Like your leather shoes, you can see clearly.

Just when Li Yong felt that this foreign woman was not very good, a woman with a graceful figure suddenly came out of the sea. This woman's skin was so thin.The face is so beautiful, but why does this woman look more and more like Hu Xiaolian? Oh, how can this woman's face change?Why do you look like He Cuihua again?

Just when Li Yong felt that the world was so wonderful, he felt that there was someone beside him doing his best. Who was it at this time?You don't have eyes so long, didn't you see that I was admiring the scenery by the sea?

This man kept shaking, there was nothing he could do, Li Yong opened his eyes and looked, hey, what about the sea and the bathing place, and what about foreign women?He is still sleeping in this cave with a lantern hanging, and his is Gao Xiang, the battalion commander of the artillery battalion.

Li Yong rubbed his eyes: "What's wrong with Gao Xiang? Why are you running away to me if you don't sleep? What's the matter?"

Gao Xiang: "Regimental Commander, Tiger Wang asked me to come here. Tiger Wang said he couldn't sleep tonight, and felt that the enemy at the bottom of the mountain seemed to be doing something. Now Tiger is watching from the front. He said let our artillery battalion use small cannons Throw a few cannons down the mountain to test the enemy's reaction."

Tiger Wang is different from other fighters. He rarely does this, but once he makes some moves, things are basically the same.

Li Yong got up cleverly: "Tell me again, where is the tiger?"

Gao Sniper: "Just staring at their battalion in front of them. He asked me to come to you. He wanted to use our battalion's small artillery to go down the mountain a few times to test the reaction of the Kuomintang."

Li Yong thought for a while and said to Gao Xiang: "Let's go, let's go there together and see what's going on ahead."

At this time, Wang Chengde, the political commissar, also woke up. Wang Chengde knew more about Wang Huhu than Li Yong, and knew that sometimes an old soldier's feeling was very accurate.The two got up, put on a coat and walked out with Gao Xiang. The head of the regiment and the political commissar all went out. Of course, Li Yuming, the company commander of the guard company, also brought a few people to follow.

A few people followed the traffic trench to the frontline position. Wang Huo saw the head of the regiment and the political commissar coming over and hurriedly asked the soldiers to make room for a better observation position.

Said it was a better place to observe, but actually couldn’t see anything. Wang Huo said to Li Yong, “Commander, I want Gao Xiang and the others to use mortars. I also know that we don’t have many cannons, but The longest pomegranate can only be thrown more than 60 meters, and it will not work any farther, what do you think?"

Li Yong: "Tiger, you have to use the cannons if you don't have many. Gao Xiang, drag a cannon squad over here."

Not long after, Gao Xiang trotted over with a soldier from the artillery squad and a few small cannons.

Li Yong, Wang Chengde and Wang Huo checked and said to the monitor of the artillery squad: "The distance is 200 meters, two shots per cannon, let's start."

With the sound of the cannon firing, flames exploded about 200 meters from the front. After the sound of the cannon stopped, Li Yong and Wang Chengde carefully observed the impact of the cannon for abnormal movements.

More than ten minutes passed, and the stone was still the original stone, the tree root was the same, and there was no movement. Li Yong said to Gao Xiang next to him: "Attention, each shot is two shots, each of which is 50 meters to the left and right. start."! ~!
