It was already a little cool in the mountains in December, but it happened to start to rain lightly again.
Li Zheng was wearing a ghillie suit, and the rain had already soaked his whole body. He couldn't help but want to sneeze, but he was afraid of exposing his traces, so he could only bury his head in the ghillie suit and cover it with his hands.
After holding his mouth for a long time, he actually suppressed the sneeze.
But this holding back made my head a little hot, and my body was cold. It felt like one part of my body was in a furnace and the other part was immersed in ice water. The feeling was so depressing.
"Is it cold?"
Hou Jun next to him noticed Li Zheng's unusual reaction and asked in a low voice.
Li Zheng nodded and said, "A little bit."
Hou Jun looked up and looked into the distance.
The rain seems to be getting heavier and heavier.
"You're all here, put on your raincoat! The rain will definitely be heavier later, so don't let anyone catch a cold without fighting." Hou Jun gave the order to the soldiers in the platoon.
Now, the location of the first platoon is located in the middle of the narrow strip between Niutou Ridge and Juelang Valley, on the east side, only six kilometers away from the only suspicious mechanized dirt road that runs through it from the right.
The day before yesterday, after the Menghu Regiment captured Niutou Ridge, they received an order from the division headquarters to advance along the dirt road from the east in the direction of Juelang Valley, because the reconnaissance team sent by the division headquarters reported that the Blue Army's combined brigade headquarters was on the way.
over there.
As long as the Menghu regiment is fast enough and can penetrate into place before the Blue Army can react, it can cooperate with the three regiments attacking from the left to form an encirclement, quickly form a pincer offensive, and combine the Blue Army into the 113th Brigade to make dumplings.
However, the war did not go smoothly.
The Menghu Regiment was blocked when it was about 60 kilometers away from the Juelang Valley. The opponent adopted multi-echelon and multi-point harassment methods of small teams. When the Menghu Regiment called for its own air force to come for support,
Unexpectedly, because the fighting distance between the enemy and us was so close, the convoy of the Menghu Regiment was accidentally bombed when the bomb was dropped.
Later, the Blue Army's long-range anti-aircraft fire began to spread, and the Air Force had to turn around and leave in order to avoid it. The regiment leader Li Haiou was so angry that he cursed his mother and scolded the ancestors of the Air Force guys for eighteen generations.
But what was even more frustrating was yet to come. The red air force flew away, but the blue air force came.
The Blue Army's air force was all composed of Wuzhi, who was also known as the "killer in the treetops." With the help of the cover of the terrain, they suddenly pulled up from behind the hillside and flew directly to the top of the Tiger Regiment's convoy. They were already tired of dealing with the Blue Army.
The Menghu Regiment convoy that was harassed by a small detachment was immediately disrupted from its true formation, and a lot of mechanized equipment was directly destroyed on the dirt road.
At the same time, bad news came one after another.
The remaining troops at Niutouling were attacked by surprise and lost their position.
The Blue Army troops who captured Niutouling directly sent air assault troops to seize the 3rd Regiment's retreat and insert the 3rd Regiment's chrysanthemum.
Almost at the same time, a combined brigade of the 113th Regiment appeared in front of the 3rd Regiment, cooperating with the air assault troops in a front and rear pincer attack.
The 3 regiments that attacked and outflanked the troops from the left suffered a heavy blow, suffered heavy losses, and almost lost their combat effectiveness.
Li Haiou suddenly realized that the reason why the victory over Niutou Ridge was so smooth was actually just a bait.
Starting from the rapid advance of the troops in two groups, the two infantry regiments of E Division were already trapped.
Currently, there are only troops directly under the 1st regiment and division, as well as an anti-aircraft artillery battalion. They have built defensive positions in the mountains behind the southern side of Niutou Ridge. They can protect themselves for the time being.
A good hand turned upside down in just a few hours, turning the situation into a complete rout.
Li Haiou's mind was spinning very fast. It was obvious that we could no longer walk on this dirt road. Others had already set up ambush here. Just like those Wu Zhi just now, they suddenly flew up from behind the hillside like big birds, leaving no one with time to react.
None, they fired a round of rocket launchers, hitting all the heavy firearms, vehicles, and armored vehicles on the ground until they emitted red smoke, and completely quit the exercise.
Fighting to the death will definitely not work. Although soldiers are proud to fight to the end, there is also a saying that a good man will not suffer the immediate losses.
withdraw!
He gave the order.
Let the whole regiment immediately withdraw to the west.
To the west are rolling hills and woods.
They are an infantry regiment, let alone an infantry regiment in the south. Mountain and forest warfare is what they are good at.
Entering the jungle, the opponent's air assault brigade's direct battalion will not be able to play a role. The tree canopy will hide the soldiers' whereabouts, and the trees and mountains will also block the mechanized equipment of the combined brigade from entering. Since you have lost heavy equipment such as armored vehicles, you will
They were also dragged into mountain battles and fought again with the same equipment level.
At least it won't lead to a dead end like hitting a dead end on an open dirt road.
The Menghu Regiment quickly withdrew into the mountainous area to the west.
Li Haiou immediately issued several orders, and all Lian Wei units were dispersed and deployed in a hexagonal formation in the mountainous area with a radius of 50 kilometers to control the jungle.
The first platoon was sent by the Second Battalion to the pass designated as X2, which was closest to the dirt road.
This is a natural blocking location.
According to Li Haiou's judgment, if the Blue Army wanted to enter the mountains to annihilate themselves, they would also have to enter the mountainous area through several key nearby passages, because only these roads are the most suitable for ground troops to enter.
One of the garrisoned rows of X2 is an important entry point.
The mission of the first platoon is to provide reconnaissance and warning effects for the second battalion as a sharp knife platoon. When it detects that the Blue Army has entered, it calls the battalion headquarters through the radio, and the 100 mortar position set up five kilometers away from the row will launch a salvo.
Blast the incoming Blue Army into rubble.
However, two days have passed and there seems to be no movement from the Blues.
It seems that they are not in a hurry at all. Since they know that the Tiger Group is trapped, they will stay trapped for a few more days. After all, most of the supplies on the previous convoy have been destroyed, and each person only has a few days of rations at most.
If you can't stand it anymore, you will naturally surrender.
And Li Haiou’s judgment was that he underestimated my Tigers.
Then I'll spend it with you!
Let’s see who can outlast whom!
It was already the evening of the second day since the exercise began. It was completely different from the fierce fighting the day before. Both the red and blue armies suddenly stopped, as if the troops on both sides had disappeared into the vast mountains and forests.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Except for the occasional few Blue Army drones passing overhead, there was no trace of Blue Army movements at any entrance.
After everyone changed into raincoats, they lurked quietly behind trees and shrubs again.
Time passed minute by minute.
It was getting dark. Hou Jun looked at his watch and saw that it was already eight o'clock in the evening.
Vaguely, he heard the sound of someone sneezing. He obviously buried his head in the raincoat deliberately and sneezed. The sound was very low and very small.
"This is not the way to go..." he thought to himself.
More than thirty hours have passed since noon yesterday. A row of people has been lying in ambush behind the woods on the hillside. They are eating individual soldiers' food. It didn't rain before, so there is no problem. They can take turns to replace them at night.
It's not tiring, but it's different now that it's raining.
It seems that we need to find a place to shelter from the rain. In late December, it is still very cold in the mountainous areas at night. Otherwise, I don’t know if these new recruits can survive the night. It will be quite difficult if a few of them fall ill.
"Li Zheng, Zhang Jian, come here."
He gestured to the two of them, inviting them to come closer to him.
The two men bent over and jumped up to Hou Jun like mice.
Hou Jun said: "I will take you to the back to find a suitable place to hide from the rain, otherwise I am afraid that many people will not be able to survive the night."
Then he said to Wu Yi: "You can keep an eye here for the time being. If you need anything, please contact me on the radio."
Wu Yi made an "ok" gesture to him: "Okay, leave this to me."
"Come with me!"
Hou Jun took the lead, leading Li Zheng and Zhang Jian through a row of warning positions and walked deep into the dense forest behind.
He had seen the map before.
There is a mountain stream to the southwest of the row of positions, with sheer cliffs and many boulders on the top of the mountain. Perhaps there is a place to protect those rocks from the rain. At least some people with weak resistance can be placed here to rest, and they can come back for support after fighting.
It's too late.
After walking more than 300 meters, Li Zheng was already out of breath.
The rain hit the tree crown, and dripped from the treetops along the branches and leaves. Large water droplets hit the helmet, making a crackling sound, making people feel a chill.
It was hard to see in the jungle at night. Fortunately, the rifles in several people's hands were equipped with low-light lenses, so they could see clearly.
Hou Jun took two guns each, a rifle and an 88 sniper.
This is his patent.
Although Li Zheng and Zhang Jian are in the sniper squad, they have not been issued special sniper rifles yet.
Large rocks scattered on the edge of the cliff appeared in everyone's sight.
Hou Jun led the two of them groping all the way, trying to find rocks with gaps. Even if there were no suspiciously large rocks to block the rain, they could at least find a place to block the light, make a smoke pit, light a fire, and do a few things.
A homemade warm baby will prevent the soldiers below from hypothermia at night.
After looking for seven or eight large rocks, Hou Jun finally stopped in front of a pile of rocks over one meter high.
“It’s nice here…”
The words were not spoken yet.
Suddenly, he frowned, grabbed a recruit with one hand, and squatted on the ground: "Squat down!"
The three of them squatted down together.
Li Zheng's heart was beating fast.
I had already experienced this feeling when I had a firefight with the Blues on the dirt road the morning before yesterday.
But at that time, Li Zheng was a little confused and didn't even know which direction the Blue Army was attacking from.
They all have laser transmitters on their guns, as well as on their bodies and helmets.
As long as you are hit by the laser, you will exit the exercise.
At that time, blank bombs were ringing around, and Li Zheng could only hide behind the wheel of a truck. Finally, Hou Jun took them all to a ditch on the roadside, so that the entire platoon would not be wiped out.
.
He admired his platoon leader.
The platoon leader is always so calm and his judgment is always so accurate.
He suddenly became nervous, something must have happened.
What's going on?
Although it was raining and his face was covered with rain, Li Zheng still felt that his throat was so dry that he could not even swallow his saliva.
Look at Zhang Jian squatting opposite, his expression cannot be seen in the darkness, but the rapid breathing also proves that this guy is very nervous!
