Feng Aiguo didn't know that before he achieved this unexpected victory, at 3 pm on December 20, the fifth battalion stationed in the Kangka defense line had already ushered in the first battle since the establishment of the military sub-district, repelling the 88th Division of the Weishi Army coming from Sister Mu.

Mujie is the border city of Daxing across the river from Ruili, which is the largest city occupied by the People's Party before the defeat. It once became the capital of the People's Party. In order to seize this city, the 88th Division of the Daxing Army and the People's Party had about 20,000 people. A large-scale battle broke out outside the city, and eventually ended with the defeat of the People's Army, which also announced that the previously vigorous People's Party armed forces began to decline.

After the People's Party headquarters retreated to the southern Wa armed territory through fruit roots, Mujie, and Wancheng Town further north, and even Menggu, who was separated from the Menghai River, also fell into the hands of the Weishi Army one after another.

It was precisely because of Menggu's fall that the military sub-district forced it to continue to go east, open up a mountain road to cross the border river, and then transfer through Menghai to obtain supplies from the country.

After the Edge Army occupied Menggu, it could attack Kangka Town through the Kangka River Valley and cut off the throat of the military division's connection with the country. Once Kangka lost, the military division had no danger to defend. The floodplain in the south was completely flat. The Edge Army could easily rush its troops south and penetrate the river beach directly into the hinterland of the military division. Relying on the advantage of the number of people, it forced the military division to fight with it near Longkang Town, or abandon its base and flee to the fruit root.

It can be seen from this that the Kangka defense line is important. It is not only a transportation hub for the military sub-district to connect with the country, but also the last gate lock that keeps the enemy from the country!

In order to be able to defend this important level with a small amount of troops, Guan Fei also racked his brains.

First, the defense line was set up twelve kilometers westward along the valley and set up at the turn of the valley.

Most of the plateau valleys follow the direction of the mountain and flow along the low places where the two mountains are sandwiched together.

The same is true for Kangka.

Kangka Town is located in the lower reaches of the river, and the upward river channel is winding and generally maintains the northwest direction. Upstream to twelve kilometers, a turning direction appears, turning from the northwest to the north, and the front and rear river channels are roughly at a sixty-degree angle.

The road from Menggu to Kangka is on the right side of the river. Part of it is a dirt road formed after being stepped on by people for a long time, and a small amount is a rock wall passage that was dug out. When the road reaches this corner, it is also blocked by mountains. It has to turn to a large angle and then follow the riverside road to the southeast.

The first line of defense is set seventy meters behind the corner.

There is little rain in winter, and the water surface of the alpine river channel is very narrow, less than two meters wide, revealing large areas of river valleys on both sides.

A platoon leading the army followed the highway from north to south to here, turned to the southeast, and immediately left the protection of the mountains on the left and directly exposed to the defenders.

Since the military sub-district determined Peng Degui's behavior of surrendering to the enemy, he immediately informed Kang Ka and Long Kang's defenders and asked them to be vigilant.

Therefore, the observation post on the top of the mountain, which usually only has two people, has been urgently added to one shift.

When the Ting Army entered the valley, the observation post at the top of the mountain found their traces and immediately reported them to the Fifth Battalion Department through the battlefield route.

The Fifth Battalion had previously obtained the temporary power of severance granted by the command center. Therefore, on the one hand, it urgently called the command center to report the enemy situation, and on the other hand, it quickly ordered the units to enter the battle position, evacuate non-combatants, transport combat supplies, and take anti-aircraft fire prevention measures. All combatants immediately wore bulletproof vests, helmets, bulletproof inserts, entered the position and stood on standby, and made all preparations before the war began.

After receiving a call from the Fifth Battalion, Guan Fei ordered them to fire without thinking!

Just kidding, the enemy has come to the front, is it necessary to quarrel with the other party? In order to protect one's own safety, even if one of the parties fires first, as long as one of them wins in the end, everything will be stopped. If you defeat it..., it will be too late to escape at that time, so who will fire the first shot?

So as soon as the platoon of the Wei Ding Army turned out from the foot of the mountain, a mound less than ten meters high was seventy meters ahead, two semi-buried bunkers poured dense bullets at them.

The Wild Army was so scared that it was out of control.

There was an officer in this leading platoon wearing a lieutenant uniform. In fact, it was not the person from this platoon, but a civilian staff specially selected.

He was mixed in this platoon, and originally planned to negotiate with the defenders. The name of negotiation was that the government army had decided not to encircle and suppress the military sub-district by force, but the military sub-district must recognize the military government as the central government and pay taxes to the government. Then, during the dispute, he would ask the government army to enter, count the assets of the military sub-district, replenish the taxes owed before, and determine the subsequent tax quota.

This is of course just an excuse.

The purpose is just to numb the defenders, and then negotiate opportunities, gradually approach the other side, and take the opportunity to cover the leading platoon and launch a surprise attack, and seize the hillside in one fell swoop. In recent years, the government forces have not only watched what changes have occurred in the military sub-district and what fortresses have been built. They have also learned a lot through reconnaissance.

As long as the earth slope less than ten meters high is captured, the large army will no longer be worried about being attacked. With the help of this barrier, they can calmly mobilize troops from the rear, arrange artillery positions, and then gradually advance to conquer other defensive positions behind one by one.

The plan was good, but the result was unexpected.

He thought he would talk back and forth with the defenders for a long time. In order to convince the other party, he pondered everything he wanted to say several times, considering how the other party reacted, how he responded, and how he debated with the other party, making the other party lose his vigilance...

I thought about everything very well, but I didn't expect that the defenders didn't talk to them at all and just fired the gun!

Too ridiculous!

Aren’t these defenders afraid of starting the war without mercy and attracting large-scale attacks by the government?

Even if they are bold and not afraid of the Wild Army, aren't they afraid of being punished by senior military division leaders for provoking war without authorization?

In his opinion, the military sub-district told the military government through domestic efforts to concentrate on economic development, which means that it will no longer carry out armed revolutions in the future. In fact, the military sub-district economy has also been well done, vigorously building new cities, introducing technical talents, and constantly developing products, which is a manifestation of wholeheartedly carrying out economic construction and having no interest in the establishment of force liberation.

At the same time, after the increase in the population under the military sub-district, they were also satisfied with the small troops of thousands and did not look like they continued to expand their troops.

Instead, Kangka and Longkang are constantly building and strengthening the fortress group, and managing them as fortresses.

All of this shows that Guan Fei and others were very satisfied with the benefits brought by doing business, and began to be self-consistent and concentrate on building their own small kingdom.

In addition, the ambassador to Yangon has repeatedly stated that the military sub-district is nominally under the banner of the People's Party, but in fact it is not the same as them. They are peace-loving, so that the military should not worry.

From this we can see that the military sub-districts definitely do not want to fight or dare not fight!

No one dared to fight above, and of course there were even a group of weaklings below.

It was because they felt that they had seen through Guan Fei and others' fear of offending the military government. If they were sure that even if there was friction, Guan Fei would punish his subordinates first and not get angry with the army. Only then did they dare to formulate this bold sneak attack plan and prepare to take advantage of the opportunity to seize this crucial level, let the large troops pass, and finally pacify Guan Fei and other rebels.

However, the actual situation is completely different from the script!

The defenders actually fired the gun without even asking!

Moreover, the firepower was so strong that the leading platoon had overturned more than a dozen in the first round. Even the commander who led the platoon to launch an opportunity to launch a raid also burst out of blood on his forehead after the first gunshot, and his hands and feet were lying to the ground. The platoon's mortars, machine gunners and other heavy firepower personnel were also hit by the fire during this round of shooting, and countless blood holes emerged from their bodies, pierced their hands and feet and threw them to the ground, dying with their eyes open.

This is not a warning shot, it is a situation where the war is to wipe out all of them!

During this round of concentrated fire, the civilian officer who was lucky enough to escape was a little dizzy. After being washed by the storm, there was only less than half of the leading platoon left. He stood there blankly, and he still couldn't react to what was going on.

Why did the defenders who defended the Tupo shoot without asking a word?

It's fine to shoot, but why is the firepower still so strong?

According to the early reconnaissance, there shouldn't be so many people in this small hill less than ten meters high? Before coming, my superior told him that there was at most one platoon here, and the one who came with him was the elite troops selected from the 88th Division. One-on-one would definitely be able to easily capture this position.

But they were hit by bullets just now, and the gunfire was so intense that most of the platoon was reimbursed in the first round. This was not just one platoon, but even one was not so fierce!

The civilian officer was completely stunned. The government army in his mind was extremely powerful. The world view of the military sub-district was not afraid to start a war completely collapsed. After the first round of attacks, he still didn't know how to dodge, didn't know how to hide, and stood there stupidly without moving.

The other remaining soldiers did not have as many ideas as him. After being attacked in the first round, they immediately subconsciously began to look for cover to hide.

However, the turning point of this valley is that the river has washed away over the years and has accumulated a lot of mud and sand, which is wide and flat, and there are no stones with large heads on the ground. Where can they hide?

Before they could think about whether to lie down on the spot or turn around and run, there were a few muffled bangs, and a few small black dots flew out from behind the soil slope where the smoke was scattered.

The small dot flew into the sky, then suddenly fell down and plunged into the crowd - there were no crowds, just a place with relatively more crowds.

The firelight was accompanied by the rumbling explosion, and the two soldiers were blown away. The remaining soldiers were also hit from all directions by flying shrapnel, with shrill screams, dancing in the rain of bullets. As we all know, the Wild Army is a famous poor man, and it would be nice to be able to equip the entire army with weapons. There is no spare money to equip them with bulletproof vests and personal protective equipment inside the bulletproof insert.

All the soldiers were wearing civilian clothes. In the shrapnel split into hundreds of shrapnel, they twitched, and their military uniforms instantly became riddled with holes. Then blood arrows splattered out of the wounds.

When the explosion stopped, the turning point of the foot of the mountain was already full of corpses.

The plan to trick the earth slopes was completely bankrupt before it was launched. The elite platoon sent out, along with the eloquent civilian officer, had no chance to talk to the defenders, was wiped out!

This consequence was not expected at all.

There is no quarrel or verbal battle. As long as you get close to the opponent's defense line, you will be greeted with a rain of bullets like water. They cannot accept this result at all!

The angry and embarrassed Wild Army finally gave up its plan to take advantage of the situation and turned to a strong attack.

The second batch of troops dispatched was still a platoon - the mountain pass was about a hundred meters wide, and it was unobstructed. If there were too many people, it would not be able to spread it out at all, and it would only become the target of the opponent. Even if he brought a brigade of troops, it would not be possible to pile up all of them. If he did that, it would be a big gift package to the opponent. With a machine gun taking out the fierce artillery fire just now, no matter how many people went up, they would have finished playing!

I wanted to set up a cannon and bombard it hard. The defenders were about seventy meters behind the corner. The shells would not turn around and landed on the other side's head.

Even though the Wild Army has many kinds of equipment, it cannot be used at all in this special terrain. It can only send soldiers forward and fight against the opponent with flesh and blood.

The second batch of rows that went up did not dare to rush out of the mountain pass directly, so they lay on the corner slope and shot against this side.

Judging from the gunfire, there are indeed not many people on the slope, and they are just in a row.

The reason why the gunfire is dense, it means that the other party uses automatic weapons. However, the military is not inferior. The m16 they equipped are also automatic rifles.

The number of people is the same and the firepower is similar. This time, there is no chance of being slaughtered by oneself. Who will win or lose? This is not certain!

With this mentality in mind, the platoon of soldiers shot against the military sub-district under the cover of the mountain.

However, the result of the shooting once again disappointed the commander: the opponent's firepower was not only strong, but also very accurate. In just two or three minutes, the platoon lost seven or eight soldiers, almost all of them were blown up by the opponent's heads and died directly, and they didn't even need to save them.

And before he could remove the platoon, the opposite dirt slope smashed the grenade and exploded near the corner, causing the remaining twenty soldiers to be stunned. Four of them were killed directly, and the others were also hit by fragments, and everyone was injured. Two or three of them announced that they had no rescue value after seeing the military doctor. They gave them a shot of morphine to relieve pain, and then carried them to the side and waited to die.

The Wild Army attacked four or five times in a row, with more than half of the casualties and no progress was made.

When they wanted to use the opponent's fire to attract the opponent's firepower, they sent people to rush out of the corner to quickly set up mortars and bombard the opponent's positions. But the defenders were not blind. When they saw the two artillery teams sent out, they immediately gave up the only dare to lie down at the corner, fired a shot and then retracted their heads, concentrated the firepower on the two mortar teams, and knocked them to the ground in an instant.

The stalking army then sent out another crawler armored vehicle to try to cover the soldiers and launch them.

But this time, a group of heavy shells flew out from the hill behind the left rear of the defenders, directly blowing the armored vehicle into a ball of burning scrap copper and rotten iron.

People learn about war in war. The army failed several times in frontal attacks, and this one was abandoned again, so they had to lower their requirements again, look far away, and launch attacks from other directions.

A company of the sergeant wanted to climb to the hill on the right, look down at the earth slope below from a high place, and attack.

However, when they were climbing the mountain, they were completely exposed to the attacking sight of the defenders. Hundreds of bullets poured from their side. On the left side of the mountain, the silence of light machine guns and heavy machine guns also sounded, and from time to time, accompanied by the explosion of mortars and grenades, balls of black soil and debris of grass and trees were blown up at the hillside.

After all, people are not machines without emotions. Under such fierce firepower, no one can climb to the top of the mountain with pressure. After seeing the powerful firepower of the defenders, most soldiers of the martyrs fled back to the back of the corner after being shot for the first time, and did not dare to show their heads.

Those who didn't have time to come back were also lying behind the ridge, and they wouldn't get up no matter how the officer urged him to kick him.

The brigade commander in charge of commanding the attack was at a loss. If they wanted to occupy a high place, they had to occupy the top of the mountain on the left.

The mountain next to the road on the right is too steep, with a slope of at least fifty to sixty degrees, and the slope close to the top of the peak is even about seventy degrees. From the telescope, you can see traces of some mountain walls being blown up. It is obvious that the Military Sub-district has transformed it so that it cannot climb.

The battle lasted until about five o'clock in the evening, and the sky began to dark. The army had no ability to fight at night, so they could only temporarily give up the attempt to seize the battle around the corner. In order to fear that the military sub-district would attack at night, they retreated six kilometers in one breath and retreated to Luomang Village in the rear.

Taking advantage of the retreat of the army, the defenders on the slope also completed the work of changing defenses, sending the wounded, replenishing troops, and ammunition and medicine.

Although the fire exchange was so intense just now, because the opponent was unable to launch his troops and set up heavy firepower, the second company and third row of the fifth battalion stationed in the two fortresses of Tupo were minimal.

There were only two soldiers who died. They were unlucky and were directly hit on the face by the enemy. Five other soldiers were shot on the shoulder, forehead and arms. The soldier was seriously injured and unconscious, but other injured soldiers could continue to fight after emergency bandage.
Chapter completed!
