"The situation is like this!" In the meeting organized next, I said to the cadres: "We are now facing a situation, that is, there are too few artillery sighting radars. Currently, there is only one used on the front line, that is,
The one we are protecting...= On the other hand, the Sino-Vietnamese border is too long, more than a thousand kilometers in total, so the superiors also believe that it is inappropriate for the artillery sighting radar to always stay in one place for use!"
"Oh!" Zhao Jingping said after hearing this: "Does the superior mean to put the artillery sighting radar into other places for use?"
"Yes!" I said: "The defense of the 40th Division is almost organized, and the artillery sighting radar will not be very useful if it continues to stay in Laoshan. And it is not enough to create a deterrent for the Yuegui... If they
Knowing that our army's artillery sighting radar is only staying in one place in Laoshan, they can just stop firing artillery in the Laoshan area. They can safely use artillery in other places, but we can't do anything to them.
On the other hand, if we can use the artillery sighting radar in a mobile manner, that is, the artillery sighting radar is here today and there tomorrow, the Juggernauts on the entire front will not be sure whether our artillery sighting radar is monitoring them in front of them, so
The Japanese artillerymen on the entire front will be trembling with fear, and they won’t feel at ease even when they fire artillery!”
"Battal Commander!" Zhao Jingping couldn't help but frowned and said, "That's true, but... doing this will obviously double the risk of a sneak attack on the artillery sight radar!"
Zhao Jingping's worries are of course justified. You must know that our army has been in the Laoshan area for some time, and we have cooperated with the 40th Division very well. What's more important is that the 40th Division just fought with the Japanese.
.So the border area will be strictly guarded against the infiltration of Vietnamese agents. This will bring great convenience to our work.
Now if we want to move the artillery sighting radar, it means that we have to change locations frequently. Lack of familiarity with geography, cooperation with local troops and understanding of local conditions may bring problems to the artillery sighting radar.
Unforeseen risks.
In fact, this is Commander Zhang's idea. He also hopes for stability in his opinion on the artillery sighting radar. After all, at this time, our army is currently the only artillery sighting radar that can be used on the front line. It not only has a military role, but also has a strategic and political role.
Meaningful role... This can almost represent a sign that our army has completely overwhelmed the Vietnamese army in modern technology. This will undoubtedly disrupt all the plans of the Vietnamese army's top brass. Most battles in the future will be fought with the Vietnamese army's artillery.
The premise is to be completely suppressed.
However, as the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, you won't catch the tiger's cubs. In fact, the real purpose of what I did was to throw out a bigger bait to the Vietnamese agents. I believe that even if the Vietnamese agents knew that it was a trap, they would have to jump in.
, after all, they do have a chance of success.
"Of course!" I said: "There are risks in doing this, but it is also a challenge for us, and I think it will be a matter of time. We can't stay in Laoshan all the time. One day we will have to
What we are facing now is an opportunity!"
Zhao Jingping couldn't help but nodded when he heard this. We must know that the only troops protecting the artillery sighting radar now are our combined battalion. We don't feel comfortable letting other troops protect our superiors. In other words, we will always have to go back to Beijing to rest. At that time, the artillery sighting radar
Naturally, I have to follow along.
So the plan was finalized. The artillery sighting radar was moved the next night.
The transfer process was carried out in a low-key manner as always. Even Mr. Jiang only knew about the situation a second before we were about to transfer.
"Batalion Commander Yang!" Commander Jiang said with regret on the phone: "I know it makes sense for the superiors to move the artillery sighting radar. After all, Laoshan is not the only place where artillery sighting radar is needed. But you guys are doing this
Transfer...it’s like there’s something missing in our hearts!”
"Don't worry, Commander!" I said: "Our thing can be said to appear wherever it is needed. If one day Laoshan starts fighting again, then we will definitely come back here as soon as possible!"
"I feel relieved with your words!" Mr. Jiang couldn't help laughing: "Have a nice trip, I won't give you any more gifts!"
When I hung up the phone, I felt a little funny. The artillery sighting radar seemed to have become a reassurance for the frontline troops. Even if there was no war, having it in my heart would make me feel at ease.
But this is not surprising. Human psychology is like this. If there is no artillery sight radar, the battle will be fought well. But once you have it and return to the original state, it will be difficult to adapt.
.
From this point of view, modern equipment can easily cause the troops to become dependent.
I think this is why, from a certain perspective, the more modern a country is, the easier it is to be destroyed.
Our next target for transition is Kullin Mountain.
This is the most "lively" place on the Yunnan front line besides Laoshan. Since our army recaptured Kuolin Mountain, the Vietnamese army has not stopped harassing and bombing our army in this direction for a day. And just as our army started to recover,
Since the battle of Laoshan, in order to achieve the purpose of indirectly assisting the Laoshan operation and attracting our troops, the Vietnamese army has intensified its bombing, infiltration, and hole digging against our troops in the direction of Kulin Mountain. Now, the war in the direction of Laoshan has become more and more intense.
It has calmed down, but the frequent small battles in Koulin Mountain show no sign of cooling down.
I can understand this. On the one hand, this is the revenge mentality of the Vietnamese army... They had a defeat in the direction of Laoshan, and it was a disastrous defeat. So they wanted to lose the mulberry tree and harvest it in the east, hoping to win in the east.
Kou Linshan is here to recover Laoshan’s losses.
Of course, the Vietnamese army also knew that this loss would definitely not be recovered. Those were the casualties of tens of thousands of the Vietnamese army's ace troops. The 316a Division was afraid that it would never recover from now on. But the ordinary Vietnamese army did not care about so many, they
I can get some back and feel relieved.
On the other hand, because the Vietnamese army knew that our army's artillery sighting radar was only in the direction of Laoshan, and also knew that our army's artillery sighting radar was insufficient, the Vietnamese army's activities in the area of Koulin Mountain remained as arrogant as before.
But soon they'll learn that's coming to an end...
"Battle Commander Yang, this is the information you want!" As soon as we arrived at Kulin Mountain to protect the artillery sighting radar, a staff officer named Yu respectfully placed a large stack of information in front of me.
It’s funny when I think about it. If this were the case in the past, if we wanted information about front-line troops, the most likely thing would be to get a sentence: “You want information? Yes, get something in exchange!”
We have encountered this a lot before. Fortunately, most of the troops quickly put down their pretensions and provided us with free information as soon as they heard that we were a "synthetic battalion".
But that's also because we are a combined battalion, a combined battalion that can enjoy the reputation of the whole army and can go sideways. If this were an ordinary army...it would be unceremonious in asking for money and materials.
Speaking of organization and discipline, these things actually do not have much restraint on the frontline soldiers who have their heads tucked into their waistbands to earn a living. The battlefield has its own rules.
But now, the front-line troops are eager to hand over the most detailed information to us as soon as possible. They even ask God and Buddha to invite us to visit their positions.
This is not because of our combined battalion, but because of the artillery sighting radar in our hands... Since the battle of Laoshan, what this artillery sighting radar means is very clear to the soldiers everywhere. As long as we come, and then hit a few
The artillerymen must be sure that the enemy's artillery will make no sound.
Which front-line troops would refuse such a good thing?
I conveniently pushed the information to Zhao Jingping next to me and ordered: "You and Staff Yu will discuss when to launch a strike on the Vietnamese artillery!"
"Yes!" Zhao Jingping took the information and politely invited Staff Yu aside.
It’s not that I look down on this battle or Staff Yu, but because I want to focus my energy on dealing with the Vietnamese agents. I know very well that the Vietnamese agents are our most important enemies at this time.
In fact, to be honest, sometimes I also wonder whether it makes sense to spend so much effort and take such a big risk to lure out Vietnamese agents.
I know one thing very well. There is no way I can kill all the Vietnamese agents. After I finish this batch, there will be another batch. That is to say, even if I successfully annihilate this group of Vietnamese agents, it does not mean that the artillery sighting cooperation
After that, you can sit back and relax.
So sometimes I can't help but ask myself, is it because this one-eyed dragon is my opponent? Not only did he escape from me several times, but he almost made it impossible for me to protect the artillery sighting radar last time... Simply put, it's because of the knot
I have a personal vendetta, so I am pretending to be a public servant to serve my own private interests.
But after thinking about it, I felt that there was nothing wrong with me doing this.
First of all, there is actually no personal grudge between Cyclops and I. I have already looked away from the war. On the battlefield, you kill me and I kill you. If you don’t kill me, I will kill you. Both sides are doing whatever they can to survive.
, so talking about revenge and the like, the reality is that the enemy cannot stand still and wait for you to behead him!
So even if the one-eyed dragon tried to kill me several times, there was no personal enmity between me and him before, but only national enmity.
Secondly, I think the reason why I am so eager to find and deal with the Cyclops is because the Cyclops is different from other agents of the army.
Even Chen Qiaoqiao, the former commander of the agent company, knew nothing about this one-eyed dragon. This shows that his agent company has a transcendent status even among Vietnamese army agents, just like our synthetic battalion.
When he was around, I felt a little bit on pins and needles, and I couldn't feel at ease.
My lack of practicality means that the artillery sighting radar is not safe enough, so I think it is still necessary to do this.
Now, I have done what I need to do: move the artillery sighting radar to the Kuulin Mountain area where security is not tight and easy to penetrate. At the same time, after our army fires artillery, I will clearly tell the Vietnamese army the location of the artillery sighting radar.
Needless to say, artillery sighting radar can accurately calculate enemy artillery positions in a short time. This is no secret on the battlefield.
In other words, after Zhao Jingping and Staff Yu made a plan, they fired at the data obtained by the artillery sight radar... and everyone in the world knew that the artillery sight radar was targeting Linshan.
This is an opportunity for the Vietnamese agents, but it also makes it more difficult, because they don’t know how long we will stay in Kuulin Mountain, and they don’t know whether we will move the artillery sights to Xieda next time.
Where.
What did the Vietnamese agents do?
I can't be sure, because there is another uncertain factor here, that is, the Vietnamese agents can still wait until our army moves to another place, or when it moves to another place, it will not be too late to take action slowly.
But the Vietnamese agents actually don't have such a chance. What I have to do next is to force them to take action... I want them to realize that if they don't take action now, they may not have a chance for a long time in the future.
Zhao Jingping and Staff Officer Yu quickly formulated a plan. As usual, in order to kill as many Vietnamese artillery forces as possible, we first used artillery sighting radar to observe the Vietnamese artillery for three days.
On the third day, when enough data was obtained, our artillery battalion fired fiercely at the Vietnamese artillery positions...
All this was the same as when our army attacked the Vietnamese army in Laoshan. It is not difficult to imagine that the Vietnamese army's artillery quickly lost its armor and suffered heavy casualties under the attack of our army.
But in the middle of the strike, Chen Weihua suddenly reported: "The artillery sighting radar is out of order!"
"What happened?" I asked, "Why did it fail at this time?"
"Battal Commander!" Chen Weihua replied helplessly: "Since the battle to recapture Laoshan, the artillery sighting radar has been working continuously for several months. During this period, we have been maintaining its working condition by checking and replacing parts every day.
It’s pretty good that we haven’t had any problems until now!”
"There will be problems sooner or later, but now is the time!" I couldn't help but cursed: "We are only halfway through this battle, and our artillery unit is full of gunpowder and has nowhere to go!"
"Battal Commander!" Staff Officer Yu persuaded: "Actually, it's almost the same. We have obtained enough Vietnamese artillery positions in the past three days. This round of bombing has already caused heavy casualties to the Vietnamese artillery. We can counterattack from them.
It can be seen that the artillery fire has become obviously weaker."
"How can that be done?" I said, "Now that the Vietnamese artillery is firing back, there is nothing we can do!"
Then I ordered Chen Weihua: "Repair it immediately, and you have two hours to get it back to normal!"
"Battal Commander!" Chen Weihua said helplessly: "The parts we brought have been used up, and this failure is still a big problem. We have to transport it back to Beijing for repair!"
"What? Transport it back to Beijing?!"
Chen Weihua helplessly spread his hands.
I could only sigh and look at Staff Yu with apologetic eyes: "It seems we can only help here!"
Of course, Staff Officer Yu will not have any objections. After all, this is an artillery sighting radar. There is only one on the entire front line and only two in the country, so everything should focus on the artillery sighting radar. (To be continued...)
