The scene at this time seemed a bit awkward, because I am holding a dead person and letting go, either, or holding him or holding him or not.
Let it go, it means that other Argentine soldiers will soon find out.
Keep holding on... It seems that it is not a solution, because A Jun around him will also notice something strange over time.
As expected, just as I thought, another Ajun who was smoking had already cast doubtful eyes at us at this time, and then he turned his eyes and walked towards us with a gun.
At this time, I couldn't help but feel nervous. You must know that there are still seven or eight minutes left before we can start the fight.
Although seven or eight minutes is not long, we are facing a line of defense built by Ajun with sandbags. The few machine guns built on it are enough to destroy us within seven or eight minutes. What's more, even if we
If we can successfully break through this line of defense, we, who have only two platoons of troops in total, are afraid that we will not be able to take down the Wireless Ridge, even if we have the cooperation of sas on the front.
Afterwards, according to Major Will and others, they always thought that I would have no choice but to order to take action in advance. After all, we had no other choice at this time, so it would be better to take the lead.
But I didn't move, but still muttered to "Ajun" in my arms, saying something I didn't even know what I mean.
No one knows what I am waiting for, and in fact I don't even know myself.
But it's just such a coincidence...
Just as the two sentries were getting closer and closer, the suspicion on their faces became heavier and heavier, an explosion suddenly sounded on the other side of the Wireless Ridge.
Later I found out that it was a sas team member who accidentally stepped on a landmine.
According to the plan, when our team marched towards the Wireless Ridge, sas should also take advantage of the darkness to sneak into the Wireless Ridge and lurk at the designated location at the designated time.
Of course, the process of sas is much more difficult than ours. The most difficult thing is that they have to do this without the enemy being aware of it. This means they have to be careful to avoid mines, traps and silent along the way
Resolve all open and secret whistles without any rest.
Fortunately, the Argentinians' arrangements were not very strict... The Argentine army was not as good as the more Japanese, the more Japanese, and the more Japanese, who had experienced decades of wars against France, Japan, and the United States. They could all be said to be veterans on the battlefield.
.But it was the first time that the Argentine army had embarked on such a formal battlefield, so they even completed the arrangement of outposts and burying landmines during the day.
I can understand this. You must know that it is a vast snowy area, and the Argentinians are not very familiar with the terrain of the Cambodian Islands. If you are setting up mines or setting out posts at night, you may be
An incident occurred when a sentry accidentally stepped on a landmine.
Of course, this is a bit incredible for us veterans on the battlefield, because we think that even such risks are worth doing.
The reason is very simple. If you place mines and posts during the day, it means that the location of these mines and posts are easily fallen into the eyes of the enemy. In other words, this may cause greater danger.
This is the case now. Because we made plans early in the morning and had sufficient communication with sas, sas immediately sent a scout to observe the mines in the direction of the wireless ridge, the location of the light and dark posts and put them in detail with high power telescopes.
mark on the map.
With this map, it will be much easier. Although sas is not very familiar with the terrain and is still in the dark, they can make a marching route in advance based on the map and assign tasks in a planned and step-by-step manner.
It even includes the division of labor to remove light and dark whistles.
So sas arrived smoothly at the front of the Wireless Ridge and lurked at the designated location.
But lurking at the front is one thing. Ten minutes before the war, Sas had to advance forward to a position 500 meters away from the top of the mountain.
The purpose is obvious, which is to hope that sas will attack Wireless Ridge at the same time as us and take Wireless Ridge in the shortest time.
At this moment, something went wrong with Sas... One of the team members accidentally stepped on a landmine.
It is said that at this time, Major Hill, the commander of sas, was immediately scared and sweated, because this directly led to the discovery of our strategic intentions by the Armenian army in advance and forced us to launch an attack in advance.
What Major Hill didn't know was that this solved the problem of coordination between our two sides.
Because if it weren't for this landmine detonated by accident, then we would be very likely to be discovered by the A-jun at this time. The sas troops on the other side might not understand what the situation was on the other side and dare not act rashly.
The first thing that responded was that Ajun, who was on the top of the mountain, quickly heard a gunshot with several shouts.
So Agen around us became nervous immediately. Even Ajun, who had walked up to check us, threw his suspicion of us outside the clouds, put away his gun and ran towards the telephone booth.
I waved at the soldiers behind me quietly, and then rushed to the high ground with my gun as planned.
At this time, the A-jun on the defense line had any doubts about us. They always thought that we had passed the sentry inspection and "verified our integrity", so there was no stopping action at all. There was even an officer constantly
Urge us to speed up the passage.
"Boom..." Just as we climbed the Wireless Ridge, bursts of explosions sounded on the top of the mountain.
It was a mortar fired by Lieutenant Colonel Buck. While providing us with fire cover, it also sent a general offensive signal.
So without thinking, I shouted "Take it!" to the soldiers behind me and took the lead in breaking into the enemy group.
To be honest, this battle is not easy.
This is not easy, it does not mean that it is not easy to defeat the enemy. In fact, the Ah Army at this time can be said to be not wary of us at all. They have no combat experience and would never have thought that there would be enemies among their own people.
What's even more fatal is that the gunfire, cannon sound and the darkness of the night covered all our movements. That is, when we easily dealt with Argentine soldiers, the comrades next to him were not even allowed to do so.
Know what happened.
Their reaction was too slow... If the Vietnamese army or the Chinese team encountered this situation, they would immediately realize that the enemy was infiltrating the troops in the alpine army and reacted immediately.
But this cannot be blamed on the Argentine soldiers, because they may not even have such tactics at this time.
The reason why this battle is not easy... is because I can't bear it while fighting. These Argentine soldiers didn't resist at all, waiting for us to point the gun at them, and there were even some Argentines.
When we found out that we were shooting at "our own people", we were looking at us with confusion. I believe they wanted to explain something, such as being our own people or asking us how we shot at our own people, etc.
But they never had the chance to say these words, because our guns were quickly pointed at them and pulled the trigger...
This reminds me of the scene in popular science books about hunters catching ostrichs... When the ostrich is frightened, it will bury its head in the sand, so the hunter just needs to walk forward and catch it easily.
At this time, the Argentine soldiers were like ostrichs who didn't understand the dangers were by their side, and we were the hunters. The difference was that we did not come forward to catch them, but killed them one by one.
I would not be ruthless at all when I killed the fierce enemy, because I knew very well at that time that if I didn't kill him, then the one who died was me, so I had to do so.
Simply put, I won’t feel much guilty if I kill my vicious enemies.
But it was a completely different feeling to these Argentines who seemed to have no ability to resist, because when you look at their confusion and innocence, and you don't understand what's going on until you die, you always put your gun on it every time It can be hard to touch them and pull the trigger.
If I could, I would even want to tell them what was going on and then kill them, at least they also know how they died.
It is conceivable that even I, a veteran who has been through the battlefield, would have such an idea, let alone those British troops who have never been on the battlefield.
According to Tom after the war, it was: "Although I had been mentally prepared for a long time, I didn't expect it to be like this... At that moment, I felt like an executioner, but on the other hand, I had to keep telling myself that this was a war, I had to complete the mission. At that time, I wanted to stop this damn war immediately!"
In fact, Tom was quite cruel. Many British soldiers could not stand it later and changed their shooting to stab the opponent with a butt stock.
But it is obviously unwise to do so.
On the one hand, the FN rifles we equipped are folding stocks, which are for easy portability in helicopters, but this stock is obviously not suitable for smashing people.
On the other hand, it is because the physical strength and time required to smash with a butt stock are completely disproportionate to how many bullets it takes to pull the trigger.
In the end, smashing with a butt stock may not necessarily effectively knock the target out, even if it is preemptive.
So we lost five British soldiers in this battle... Although we can't tell how they died from the corpse, I think most of them are timid or deterred when facing the target because of their ruthlessness. Don't pull the trigger.
"Battery Commander!" Just as I was shooting mechanically at Argentine soldiers in the sound of gunfire again and again, Liang Lianbing's voice came from the walkie-phone: "The attack on the rough diamond highland is blocked, we are The enemy is blocking the mountain!"
Upon hearing this, I couldn't help but frown. This is not good! (To be continued...)
