It can be said that Chen Yiyi is really good at it. Perhaps it is because she stayed in the Vietnamese army for a long time. She even studied the Vietnamese army's habit of laying mines.
For example, the Vietnamese army is accustomed to dividing sentries into several layers. The specific number of layers depends on the situation and local conditions. These sentries include open sentries, hidden sentries, mobile sentries, etc. Each kind of sentry has its own warning mission, or
It is the organic cooperation between light, darkness and movement.
And between the sentinels on each level...the Vietnamese army is accustomed to using landmines to block them. This forms mines, sentinels, landmines, sentinels... Such a warning network is even equipped with barbed wire on the recent floors.
A-shaped fortifications, etc., are used to prevent the enemy from launching a strong attack after being discovered.
This set of warning methods can be said to be an eye-opener for me, and it also gave me a new understanding of Chen Yiyi's abilities.
Isn't it? This land mine used to evade the Japanese is no joke. If it hadn't been for Chen Yiyi along the way... I don't know how many times I would have died.
Maybe some people will say, don’t our troops have deminers? Why are we afraid of crossing the Japanese mines?
There are indeed deminers, and they are foldable. This design may be because of the high frequency of mines in combat with the Vietnamese army, so a foldable one can be carried by ordinary infantry.
But what’s another name for a deminer? It’s called a metal detector. As the name suggests, this thing can only detect metal instead of landmines.
Of course, if you want to say that landmines are all made of iron, then I have nothing to say...
The fact is that at this time, landmines already had mines that could not be detected by metal detectors. The most typical one was the "wooden shell mine" supported by the Soviet Union to Vietnam. The shell of this thing was made of wood. Once it exploded, the explosive would be removed.
In addition to its own shock wave, the broken wooden shell will also be inserted all over your body... so we also call this kind of thunder "hedgehog thunder", which means that if you step on it... it will turn you into a
hedgehog!
This is not terrible. What is even more terrible is the gadget that the Japanese made at random: tie a TNT block in the grass, insert a detonator and connect it to an iron wire as thin as a hair. If you use a detector to detect
Thunder bar, there was a "boom" as soon as I swept over it...
However, all this has become a bit insignificant in Chen Yiyi's eyes. I don't know what method she uses, but she can always lead us to avoid those landmines and go in layer by layer. Sometimes I even have some
I wonder if she knew in advance about the distribution of the Yue Japanese mines.
Later I learned that this is actually not a difficult task for someone who knows how to track. The Vietnamese army always had to leave a way for their own people to enter and exit, right? It was precisely because the mines blocked the position that this road was used for entry and exit.
Talents are very frequent, which causes the grass on this road to be trampled differently... So for Chen Yiyi, this is just a piece of cake.
The only time I encountered danger on this road was because I underestimated the enemy.
This person might be like this. Under the leadership of Chen Yiyi, I walked smoothly into the Vietnamese army's security circle, so I thought to myself... This is just what the Vietnamese Japanese are like, it's nothing special.
So when we saw two Vietnamese army mobile posts approaching us, we couldn't help but wanted to go up with Scar and kill these two guys...but before we could do anything, we were stopped by Chen Yiyi
.
Just when Scar and I were wondering, two more mobile sentries came up from behind... "Damn!" It turned out that this was a little trick played by the Vietnamese. If we had tried to do it just now, we might have been killed by the two Vietnamese soldiers who came after them.
Got hit hard.
From this point of view, the Vietnamese army is much stricter than our army in terms of the arrangement of sentries and the layout. It is no wonder that the Vietnamese army can always use infiltration warfare to make us panic.
, I'm afraid that in their eyes...our overt and covert sentinels are just scarecrows.
Finally, after more than half an hour, we passed through the Vietnamese military warning circle. I looked at my watch and couldn't help but frown: the pointer had already pointed to more than two o'clock. If we go at this speed... we simply won't be able to complete the mission before dawn.
Rush back to Highland 239.
"Cuckoo..." Several regular bird calls came from the front. This was the secret code Chen Yiyi had agreed with me, calling me to come up and see what was going on.
Holding a gun and sneaking around in the grass for a while, he came to Chen Yiyi's side. Following her eyes and looking out of the grass, he couldn't help but be stunned: there is indeed an artillery position of the Japanese in front, there are about three
A dozen cannons, a dozen large-caliber mortars, and a dozen cars filled with artillery shells... were all parked in the open space in the middle of Triangle Mountain.
We seem to have found our destination, but... I made a rough estimate. There are at least two to three hundred people in this position, and some of them are of course artillery. Some of them are busy loading ammunition, and some are...
Carrying ammunition up and down, and some are operating artillery...
The other part, I think, is the infantry that protects the artillery. They have a large company. Needless to say, the top of the mountain must have been occupied by the Vietnamese army. The Vietnamese infantry are also scattered in twos and threes around the artillery.
A simple defense line... I observed it with a telescope for a while and found two Deshka anti-aircraft machine guns at both ends of this thing.
Coming from a military family, I have some familiarity with this type of anti-aircraft machine gun.
This thing is produced in the Soviet Union. Of course, most of our army's equipment is copied from the Soviet Union, and this anti-aircraft machine gun is no exception. It is actually the Type 54 12.7MM caliber anti-aircraft machine gun used by our army. I even saw it in the army when I was a child.
real thing...
I remember that at that time, the army asked the old man to tell the new recruits about his combat experience... Of course, the old man was blind, wasn't he? Naturally, he asked me to take him with him as a guide. So the old man was giving lectures, and I visited everywhere in the army... Seven rounds
Bawan actually walked to the shooting range and happened to see a few soldiers practicing this kind of "cannon"... I was still young at the time and couldn't tell whether it was a cannon or a gun.
"..." It was as if a strong wind was blowing, and the steel plate a hundred meters away was "dinging" and punched with bullet holes as big as a fist.
Later I learned that this thing can easily penetrate a 20MM steel plate within a distance of one hundred meters.
What is the meaning of 20MM steel plate? The rear armor of the Type 62 light tank body of our army is only 16MM. In other words... if this thing is used to "squeak" on the butt of the Type 62 tank, then
The tank is finished.
Some people may ask, why are anti-aircraft machine guns placed here? To fly planes? In the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam, we did not use the air force?
This anti-aircraft machine gun is not just for shooting planes. Because of its long range and high power, the Vietnamese army often uses it to hit infantry. Isn’t it said that it can hit 20MM steel plates? Then hitting people is like cutting vegetables with a sword, dozens of people
You can be punched through even if you stand in a row!
No...these two machine guns formed a cross fire, one on the left and one on the right, controlling the entrance of Triangle Mountain to us. You can imagine how many people would rush in if our troops wanted to storm this artillery position.
They would all fall under the firepower of these two anti-aircraft machine guns.
Seeing this formation, I immediately ran out of ideas and immediately called Scar up.
When Scar saw it, he was stunned for a long time and couldn't do anything.
Are you kidding, there are only more than thirty of us, how about using more than thirty people to fight more than two hundred well-trained Vietnamese? Even if half of the Vietnamese are Vietnamese artillery with weak combat effectiveness, okay?
The other half are infantry who are good at land warfare!
"How about..." Chen Yiyi hesitated for a while, then whispered: "Let's report the situation here to the company commander and let him make a decision..."
I could only smile bitterly. It was possible to report to the company commander. We took the radio with us when we came out, but what could the company commander do? Let us go back? If we don't kill these artillerymen, we will die if we go back.
If we don't go back... we have no choice but to destroy this place! But this seems to be the same as sending death...
At this time, I had no choice but to rack my brains, thinking not only about what the old man said, but also about the battle in Laojie where the Japanese invaded and attacked our artillery position.
Just like what Liang Lianbing said, the Vietnamese were able to sneak attack our artillery position in Lao Cai with a small number and win with a large number, and we can do the same.
But it sounds easy to say this, but now it is even more difficult to actually do it.
First of all, the Vietnamese troops who attacked our artillery positions were different. First, they were more numerous than us, and the Vietnamese army had one company. Second, their quality was higher than ours, and the cooperation between the various units of the Vietnamese army was perfect.
Secondly, the soldiers in my artillery battalion can be said to have no defense. The artillerymen are all eating and have nothing but bowls and chopsticks in their hands. The infantry is several miles away...
So this gave the Vietnamese army agents an opportunity to launch an almost perfect sneak attack.
But what about us?
What we are facing is the 316A Division of the Vietnamese Army. Their defense and firepower layout are not comparable to those of the People's Liberation Army artillery battalion that has never fought in a war.
Therefore, it seems that our trip is destined to come back empty-handed!
No...no!
I gritted my teeth and secretly made up my mind to destroy the artillery position in front of me no matter what. Even if I died here, I would not hesitate.
This is not to say how great I am, but because I know one thing very well: if we don't blow up these artillery positions, even if we can return to the position safely, we will have to wait to die.
No matter what, you're going to die anyway, so why not fight with these Yue Japanese?
