Chapter 46(1/2)
The Eagle descends to Baodugu (please vote for me!)]
"Soldier, what are the duties of a soldier?"
On the grass beside the Jiangsu Army Air Force Xuzhou Base Airport, Zhou Qin, wearing a field uniform, looked at the 160 officers and soldiers in front of him who had been reorganized into the "Special Assault Force of the Internal Affairs Forces" and said emotionally.
"The state has four dimensions. If one dimension is eliminated, it will fall. If two dimensions are eliminated, it will be in danger. If three dimensions are eliminated, it will be overthrown. If four dimensions are eliminated, it will be destroyed. Soldiers also have four dimensions. Here I, I want to repeat the teachings of the Prime Minister when I joined the Jiangsu Army.
Responsibility, honor, sacrifice, country! These are the four dimensions of being a soldier."
Staring at the officers and soldiers lined up in front of him, what came to Zhou Qin's mind was the Prime Minister's speech at the opening ceremony of the Jiangsu Army's third officer education corps. At this time, he passed on the same words to these soldiers,
His words were very emotional. He knew that the officers and soldiers in front of him could understand the words in that speech. Most of them had obtained junior high school diplomas or even high school diplomas. The Jiangsu Army was definitely different from any other army.
An army is by no means an army composed of illiterate people. Because of this, its soldiers will know why they are fighting, and its officers will know what their duties are as soldiers.
"...Perhaps today may be my last roll call for you. However, I hope you know that when I die, my last conscious thought must be of this unit - of this unit - of this unit
...Glory belongs to you! My comrades! Let us use our blood to defend the Fourth Dimension of the Guard and our lives to protect this country..."
There was no applause or cheering. At this time, there was only the unique solemnity of the soldiers. The photographer in the distance captured this moment with his camera, and suddenly a roar came from the team.
"Internal Affairs Army!"
That was the roar of a soldier!
Then another hundred and sixty-one people roared.
"Long live!"
"Kill those bandits who look like pussies!"
The solemnity turned into cheers, and the cheers turned into ridicule. In their eyes, those so-called "enemies" were not worth mentioning at all. The strict training they had received in the past could be described as cruel, and the enemies they targeted were
Those elite armies of countries with powerful armies, but now, what they want to attack is just a group of inferior and weak bandits.
"Okay, comrades!"
Just like in the Jiangsu Army in the past, in this army, everyone is treated as comrade, especially for these elite troops, and they even regard this "title" as the difference between themselves and others.
.
"It's still the same sentence, I will be the first to charge!"
Officer! Officers always charge forward. This is the requirement of the Jiangsu Army. Officers need to set an example for the soldiers!
Late at night, at nine o'clock in the evening, the sky was completely dark, and only a little light of the stars and the moon could be seen in the sky.
160 officers and soldiers of the "Special Assault Force of the Ministry of Internal Affairs" boarded an assault glider at the Xuzhou base. This should be the first actual airborne landing in human history, and the target they targeted was not the Germans as the officers and soldiers imagined. Although
It is a pity that the so-called world's largest army power cannot be allowed to try the power of "airborne troops descending from heaven", but in any case, this is the first time, the first time for airborne combat.
"...We saw commandos with dark faces packing their bags for this seemingly inconspicuous military operation. Officers and non-commissioned officers strolled among them, stepping past the soldiers' backpacks and
All kinds of equipment that can only be equipped by this kind of special assault force, chatting with this soldier about daily life or chatting with that soldier about comradeship... Maybe it's because this is the first time some of them have been involved in actual combat.
Although many soldiers have solemn expressions, they do not have that kind of determination, but no one will doubt their determination to complete the mission..."...
An army reporter used a pen to record the expressions of the soldiers at the last moment before the departure of the 1st Airborne Division. The army photographer who accompanied him never put down his camera and camera. The army reporter is the "creative" force of the Jiangsu Army.
Invention, sending a large number of reporters directly to the front line, and even training reporters in the army, and the purpose of this is not only to record the war, but more importantly, to publicize, let the world understand this army, and use this publicity to change
Chinese people’s prejudice against soldiers and the military.
At midnight on November 10th, the commandos of the 1st Airborne Division who were on standby at the airport put out their cigarettes and drank up the only one tael of spirits or the new "Dutch Water" from Lianyungang in their glasses.
Then they sat down on their canvas seats in the cabin, and then looked at each other. Finally, in silence, people started making various jokes. In this regard, the officers not only did not stop them, but further fueled the flames...
At 12:30, the silence of the airport was broken, and the searchlights illuminated the entire airport..."
Listening to the roar of the aircraft engine in his ears, Wu Anguo in the glider cabin glanced outside the cabin, and then he began to wait, waiting to take off. Suddenly, the assault glider started to maneuver. The movement was absolutely different from
An ordinary airplane was like... Before he could think of what it was like, he felt the airplane slowly lift off the ground after gliding in a balanced manner. Finally, after taking off, the glider was towed by the transport plane.
After reaching the air, it swayed from time to time.
The glider swayed left and right, which made him, who was used to flying on transport planes and used to the smooth flight of transport planes, feel his legs were weak. His throat was dry and he could only stutter and murmur in his mind.
"Buddhist society bless, Guanyin Bodhisattva bless..."
While he was praying in his heart, the transport planes taking off from the Xuzhou base airport and their towed gliders filled the night sky, flashing red and green night flight lights. The planes taking off from the airport were slowly flying over the airport.
The slow flow of the aircraft fleet buzzed over the wilderness. People who were sleeping soundly in Xuzhou City and on the railway affiliated areas were awakened by the noise of the huge fleet of aircraft passing above.
People who were awakened walked out of their houses and stood in the yard looking into the sky. In the dim sky, they could vaguely see countless black spots flying from north to north.
"What is that!"
In a restaurant in Xuzhou City, a middle-aged man wearing a cotton coat looked at the sky in confusion.
"Boss, that's a plane!"
The waiter looked at his boss's appearance and quickly showed off.
"Plane? What kind of plane are you flying in the middle of the night?"
The middle-aged man yelled and then walked towards the house. When the waiter saw his employer entering the house, he stuck out his tongue and said softly.
"A rich country man who has never seen the world!"
At 3:42 in the morning, the glider carrying the special commando team of the Ministry of Internal Affairs encountered strong winds when it arrived over Baodugu. At the end of the tow cable, the glider began to bump up and down and swing left and right. The glider flew through the strong wind.
Sometimes the pilot could see the taillights of the tow plane, and occasionally a fast-moving full moon appeared between the clouds.
In the swaying glider cabin, the heavily armed airborne troops were either smoking cigarettes or meditating with solemn eyes. The sergeant standing in the cabin began to make the final mobilization.
"... Comrades, as your squad leader, I hope you will fulfill your responsibilities in this battle! This is our mission!... I wish everyone good luck! After the battle, I will treat the brothers to a drink!"
At this time, the gray night sky has turned white. The light shining into the cabin through the window allows the soldiers to see the expressions of their comrades. Everyone's expressions are unusually solemn. Even though what they need to face next is just a group of
Bandits who lack training, but no one can relax this time. This is a battle anyway, and any unexpected accident may happen during the battle...
At an altitude of thousands of meters, after determining the target, the pilot of the transport aircraft towing the glider immediately contacted the glider through the light signal with three dots of lights on the top of a mountain. After receiving the signal, the pilot of the glider released the tow rope.
The next moment, the roar around the fuselage gradually subsided.
In the strange silence, the plane glides steadily towards the target through the dark night sky. At this time, the glider painted gray and blue is like an elf in the dark night, completely covered in the night, not making any sound, just silent.
Quietly approaching the target, and the target is Baodugu.
Staring at the dark night outside the cabin, the pilot commanding the ten gliders glanced at the faint light signals on the ground. In order to get as close as possible to Baodugu and the target, and avoid hitting the mountain, the pilot pulled up the glider.
, and then after gaining altitude, the plane dived rapidly. The ground suddenly rose. The fields and trees below moved rapidly backward at a speed of about 110 kilometers per hour.
"Hold tight!"
The pilot nervously held his breath and shouted loudly. Two rows of commandos sitting in the glider cabin immediately sat with their arms and legs off the ground, entangled with each other, waiting for the ground to face their impact.
On the top of Baodugu Mountain, carrying the two barrels of the Martini Henry rifle, he was still like the past, with his hands in his sleeves and a runny nose. He was just thinking about when he could go back to bed to warm up.
Suddenly, there seemed to be a faint sound of different winds in the air. When he raised his head and looked into the sky, he saw a vague black shadow rushing towards the top of the mountain.
The black shadow that looked like a giant bird silently passed over the top of the tree next to the ditch, and quietly pounced towards his position. He was completely frightened by the huge black bird.
As for standing there without even daring to move, the giant bird made a huge crashing sound when it touched the ground, and then slid across the field. The giant bird made a crisp sound when it smashed into the water-collecting tiles in the field.
, finally after sliding for dozens of feet, the giant bird stopped. At the same time, several more black shadows fell from the sky to the ground.
After the first glider landed in the wheat field on the top of the mountain, before Erzhanzi could recover, he heard a series of shouts from the big bird in the field.
"Quick! Quick! Quick!"
Then a group of figures jumped out from the monster and rushed towards him. Looking at those wolf-like and tiger-like figures, Erzhizi was so frightened by the big bird that he lost his soul and didn't even think about it.
Then he turned around and ran away.
"Monster..."
Thanks to the precise landing of the glider pilot, the first batch of commandos carried by ten gliders successfully landed on the top of the mountain in just one minute.
In the air, the second batch of gliders silently approached the top of the mountain. They made a dull and violent sound when they landed and hit the ground. One glider suddenly crashed through a hut, and ended up carrying a bed at the other end of the hut.
, the bandits and hostages who were surprised by the huge impact were stunned by the monster that suddenly dropped from the sky to the top of the mountain. What kind of monster is this?
As soon as the plane landed, the airborne troops armed with submachine guns and machine guns rushed out of the glider they were riding in. The awakened bandits were almost dumbfounded as they watched a group of people rush out from the monster's belly. It only took a few minutes.
There was silence from left to right, but it was enough for the assault personnel.
As soon as the glider made an emergency landing at the training ground, the roof of the cabin was opened. The commandos immediately operated the machine guns on the roof and fired violently at the buildings in the distance. The soldiers who rushed out of the cabin threw a shot at the nearby building.
A grenade was fired, and the battle began.
After being awakened by the impact, Sun Meizhu instinctively pushed the woman next to him and jumped out of the bed. Before he could call anyone to ask what was going on, the sound of continuous gunshots and explosions reached his ears.
At this time, the awakened bandits were shirtless and holding guns, just about to fight back, but they were suppressed by extremely accurate firepower. When they were suppressed in the room, several commandos with submachine guns would approach the house and then shoot at them.
One or two grenades were thrown into the room. After the grenades exploded, they immediately rushed into the room, followed by a burst of violent shooting...
The entire operation was perfect. Due to the intelligence obtained in advance, they already knew the buildings on the top of the mountain. Those were the gangsters' nests and those were where the hostages lived. Moreover, they had used wooden planks on the training ground to build a structure similar to the mountain top according to the reconnaissance photos.
The buildings are distributed in the same training ground, so the attack is extremely smooth.
"The boss...the boss...the officers...the officers and soldiers are coming..."
The fourth master carrying a gun rushed into the room in panic and shouted at Sun Meizhu.
To be continued...
