Soon there was a burst of gunfire and explosions at the entrance of the tunnel. Some were shot by us, and some were shot by the Japanese from inside. In fact, the gunshots and explosions sounded fierce, but they were not.
There's nothing anyone can do about it... Isn't that right? The entrance to the tunnel is just that big, and the passage is long, narrow, and has twists and turns, but those bullets can neither make turns nor recognize people like modern missiles.
So most of them are fed by the soil from the tunnel walls.
Of course, those of us who have just walked out of the tunnels know this very well, but since it is an attack, of course we have to shoot, right? But the Japanese have no choice but to fight, because they are afraid of what happens.
What if we accidentally get in without shooting? So as long as we are attacking, they will keep shooting inside and out, and occasionally throw out one or two grenades... Of course, these grenades
Usually they can't be thrown near us, because we also shoot inside, so the Japanese can't get close at all.
"Squad leader!" Bayonet shouted at me as he turned around to change the magazine after firing a bunch of bullets: "This is not an option. You can't hit anything. I think it's better to throw an explosive bag in!"
"No messing around!" The gunfire was very loud. In order to ensure that the bayonet and other soldiers could hear my order, I had to shout with all my strength: "Everyone listen, you are only allowed to shoot and throw grenades, no
You're going to throw the explosive packet, do you understand me?"
"Understood!" the soldiers responded, raising their guns again and firing several rows of bullets into the tunnel, but no one knew what kind of medicine I was selling in my gourd.
"Second squad leader!" At this time, a familiar voice appeared behind me. I turned around and saw that it was Captain Li who was leading the regiment leader, and there were several guards around him as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
"Captain, why are you here..." I quickly put away my weapon and rushed forward. Although it is common for senior cadres of our army to visit the front line in person, I did not expect that the commander would dare to go so close to the battlefield. In fact,
I think this is not necessary at all. Now is not the era when everything is about bravery, right? Therefore, a commander who goes to the front line in person can actually be said to be irresponsible for his own life and irresponsible for the command of the entire army.
The regiment leader didn't say much. He waved to me and invited me out with a stern face. Then he said with a solemn look: "Comrade Yang Xuefeng, it doesn't matter if you haven't completed the task, but there is no need to fight randomly!"
"Yes! Comrade Yang Xuefeng!" The company commander also persuaded: "This task is too difficult, and you have done a good enough job. Several other troops have not been able to sneak in. You are the only one who has entered.
The troops of the Vietnamese army have come out of the tunnel again. The superiors have also considered your difficulties..."
"Wait a minute..." I looked at the two people in front of me with some confusion, and said doubtfully: "Why haven't you completed the task? What are you trying to do...I..."
"Comrade Yang Xuefeng!" the team leader said in a serious tone: "Don't ask too much of yourself! You can continue to work hard until the task is completed. It will not be effective to fight randomly! These bullets are also exchanged for our transport team's sweat, blood and even lives.
Well, we can’t just use it to vent our anger!”
It took me a long time to realize that the regiment leader thought that I had fired at the Japs' tunnel because I failed to complete the task!
"Report to the leader!" I said with a bitter smile: "I don't think I have failed to complete the task. In fact..."
I pointed at the soldiers behind me who were firing randomly into the tunnels of the Vietnamese army and said, "In fact, I am completing my mission now!"
The company commander couldn't help but frown after hearing this, his face already showing a slight displeasure. He was about to criticize, but was interrupted by the regiment commander.
"Oh, tell me." The leader nodded and asked, "How to complete the task?"
"We have already found the ammunition depot of the Japanese Japs!" I replied: "And I set a booby trap in the ammunition depot..."
"Hmm!" The leader couldn't help but smile with joy when he heard this.
"But the problem is..." I continued: "The problem is that the Vietnamese also discovered that we had sneaked into the tunnel and visited the ammunition depot, so it is very likely that they will carefully check the ammunition depot..."
"Oh!" When I said this, the regiment leader quickly understood: "You are attacking the Japanese tunnels... in order to consume their ammunition and make them rush to move ammunition for defense, so they have no time to check the ammunition depot!"
"Yes!" I nodded in response: "That's what I want, so I hope that the regiment leader will order to attack several other tunnels at the same time! At this time, the harder the attack is, the more ammunition is consumed, the better..."
"Hey! Why didn't you tell me earlier!" The regiment leader slapped his thigh, glared at me fiercely, turned around and ordered to the correspondent beside him: "Quick! Order the troops immediately to launch an attack on the Japanese Japs' tunnels. All
!”
"Also!" the regiment leader added: "Order all troops to immediately search the entrance of the enemy's tunnel, and launch an attack immediately if found!"
"Yes!" the correspondent responded and hurried away.
At this time, I was smiling bitterly in my heart: When did I not tell you earlier? Didn’t I send Xiao Shitou to notify me early in the morning?
"I have you!" The regiment leader patted my shoulder and said with a smile: "Yes! He is a talent. Not only can he fight, but he can also use his brains! He is so young... He can give us old guys
The competition is over!"
"Captain..." After hearing this, I replied with some embarrassment: "How dare I... compete with you!"
At this time, what I was thinking about was the old man who was still lying on the hospital bed in modern times. If it weren't for him... I don't think even if I had three brains, I wouldn't be able to come up with this solution.
"Report to the leader!" At this time, the correspondent ran back and reported: "The order has been conveyed, please give instructions!"
The group leader waved his hand and said: "No need to do anything, just wait!"
The leader is right. There is a saying that God decides what to do. Now we have done what we should do. Whether we can succeed or not depends on whether God is on our side, so everyone stood outside the house.
Waiting quietly, listening to the bursts of gunfire nearby, and the explosion of grenades...
After waiting for a long time and not seeing any movement, I felt a little anxious. What if the Vietnamese have discovered the booby trap I set in the ammunition depot? Or even if they have eliminated the booby trap? Then should we still
Keep fighting like this stupidly? And it should be said that I am still the main person in charge of this operation. Maybe I should leave one person to detonate it in the ammunition depot of the Vietnamese army. After all, compared to sacrificing one person, completing the mission is more important.
The most important thing is that I ignored the mission in order to save one person, but the result was that more soldiers would be harmed... Am I wrong to do this?
Thinking of this, I sat or stood. The longer time passed, the deeper the guilt in my heart became. It was not a good feeling to walk around outside. But the leader was relatively calm. He sat quietly on a stone.
He was drinking water, and at some point, Dao Scar and Dao Scar each held a cigarette and smoked each other, as if they were still chatting about something.
"Comrade Yang Xuefeng!" The regiment leader waved to me when he saw my appearance, motioning for me to sit next to him, and said: "Young man, don't be impatient! It's useless to be impatient. You have to be patient and never give up until the last moment.
,Understand?"
"Yes!" I nodded in agreement, took a deep breath and slowly calmed down my mood.
Captain Zhou is right, no matter whether the Japanese Japs discover the traps I set or not, me being anxious here will not have any impact on the outcome of the mission. On the contrary, it will also affect my state and affect my future battles.
From this point of view, I may be a little clever, but my psychological quality on the battlefield is still far behind veterans like the captain and Scar.
Just like the old man said, the battlefield requires us to forget the past. No matter whether we made mistakes or merits in the past, we should put them down without leaving any baggage. Only in this way can we exert our greatest potential on the battlefield!
"Report!" At this time, a cadre and a dozen soldiers trotted up to Captain Liu and reported: "Report to the second platoon of the third battalion and ask for instructions!"
"Well!" The regiment leader raised his head toward the room and said, "Go and replace the comrades inside!"
"Yes!" The dozen or so soldiers responded and ran into the house with their weapons in hand without saying a word.
I couldn't help but feel a little surprised when I saw this. I didn't expect that the regiment leader was quite attentive. He also knew that I and the soldiers under me must have been tired from going around in the tunnel and then continuing to fight, so he summoned a group of soldiers.
Send an army to top us...
"Hello, Chief!"
"Hello, Chief!"
…
After a while, I saw the bayonet and the few soldiers under my command walking out of the house out of breath. This time we walked into the tunnel of the Japanese. Although there was no big battle, we wanted to fight.
Speaking of physical work, it means helping the Japanese with food in the ammunition depot, but the psychological pressure of going deep into the tiger's den and being wiped out at every turn is very difficult to bear. So let alone, if they are not replaced now
I really can't stand it for much longer.
"Thank you for your hard work, comrades!" Captain Liu nodded approvingly at the soldiers: "Go down and rest...well..."
At this time, the regiment leader's face changed slightly, and his right hand reflexively touched the pistol at his waist... I followed Captain Liu's gaze and saw that it was Chen Yiyi who was timidly walking out behind the team.
Several guards immediately surrounded us with a roar, and I quickly rushed over to explain: "She is Chinese, and she helped us find the Japanese ammunition depot in the tunnel!"
The regiment leader couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then smiled at Scar: "Let me tell you, Second Platoon Commander, your soldiers are not only good at fighting, they are also good at dealing with enemies!"
With a cry of "Coax!", the surrounding guards also burst into laughter.
At this moment, there was a loud noise, and our feet shook violently like an earthquake, making us almost unable to stand... I couldn't help but feel happy: It's done! The Japanese ammunition depot is finished
