Today is already the third day after changing to a new camp. Tang Cheng, who has woken up, is still wrapped in a military blanket and refuses to get up. The sun is rising in the gray sky. Yesterday's light rain has stopped. Although the sun has come out,
But the sky in the early morning still looked gray because the rain and fog had not completely dissipated. After waiting for Mike to drive back to the camp with new orders, Tang Cheng got up and washed his face in a daze. He learned that the commando team was going out for a routine reconnaissance.
At this time, Tangcheng's spirit suddenly improved.
The scope of the investigation this time is not very large. In Mike's original words, it was just to go out for a circle and then bring the brothers who were out safely back. Tangcheng took the initiative to ask Ying to direct this investigation, but Mike couldn't compete.
He had no choice but to suggest that Tang Cheng take Yanlong, Lanny and a dozen or so selected guys to carry out this reconnaissance mission. For the soldiers who were originally directly under the company, going out for reconnaissance was simply an opportunity to go out for fun, and there was nothing important about it.
So worried.
"Attention, everyone, move forward in skirmish formation, watch your steps, be careful, don't step on landmines." Yanlong and Lanny were at the front of the team, and Lanny kept reminding loudly.
There was an open area in front of them. They had to pass through it, then follow the open area into the bush area, and only after bypassing the bush area could they observe the Japanese defense line and positions.
"Landmines?" Liu Shitou, who insisted on following, held a gun and nervously followed Tangcheng step by step to explore the way forward. All Liu Shitou's impressions of landmines came from when Liu Yangtou fought against the Japanese army in Mengcheng.
Homemade landmines were made from explosives taken out from dismantled artillery shells. Although they were homemade landmines, they were quite powerful. Liu Shitou still remembers the Japanese soldiers who were blasted into the air by land mines.
Lanni bit an unlit cigar in his mouth, looked carefully at the road under his feet, and walked very carefully, "There are a lot of mines here. I heard that when the Japanese army retreated into Myitkyina, they buried a lot of them.
Funny thing. Later, our people were afraid of a sneak attack by the Japanese army, so they planted a number of landmines here. As a result, the guy responsible for planting the mines was blown into two pieces by the Japanese artillery shells. Now no one knows how many landmines are buried here."
When Lanni spoke, he turned to look at Liu Shitou who was being careful, but he didn't want Liu Shitou to see the smile hidden in his eyes, "Lanny, don't scare me, I'm not scared.
Liu Shitou, who consciously saw that Lanni was bluffing, laughed. He deliberately held his chest high, walked forward with long strides, took several steps in succession, and raised his head to challenge Lanny with his eyes.
.
"Shitou, you'd better listen to me. There are really landmines here. I don't want you to be torn to pieces by the damn mines." Lanni continued walking forward, "I heard that thing exploded. The doctor gave it to you.
Your penis will be cut off during treatment. I heard that there was an unlucky guy in their 38th Division a few nights ago. He stepped on a landmine and his testicles were cut off, although his life was saved.
, but the birds below have completely given up.”
Lanny's words made Tang Cheng and the others laugh. Unexpectedly, Tang Cheng didn't hear Liu Shitou's movement behind him. He was about to turn around when he heard a trembling voice from behind. "Brother, I may be serious.
You stepped on a landmine." Tang Cheng turned around and saw Liu Shitou, who was following him, with one foot in front and one foot behind him, shouting loudly with a grief-stricken expression on his face.
Get up, "I stepped on a landmine, will the doctor cut off my penis too?"
"Shitou, hold still and don't move around. Relax, relax!" Tang Cheng, whose face changed greatly, was about to lean over Liu Shitou, but Lanni turned over and ran over from the front. "Tang, let me do it, I'll do it.
In a few days, this thing is actually not that scary. Don't worry, Shitou, as long as you listen to me, everything will be fine!" Lanni squatted down in front of Liu Shitou, and then simply lay on the ground and put his whole body on the ground.
The soil next to Liu Shitou's foot was slowly peeled away.
"This is an infantry mine." Lanny carefully observed the landmine under Liu Shitou's feet. At this time, Liu Shitou had already turned pale and was shaking all over. If it weren't for one of Lanni's hands.
By immobilizing Liu Shitou's feet, any landmines he might have stepped on would have been triggered and exploded.
"Shitou, hold on, you'll be fine soon, I promise." Lanni took out his dagger and dug open the soil around Liu Shitou's feet, so that more mines could be exposed. He looked carefully at Liu Shitou's feet.
After seeing the mine, Lanni suddenly took off a badge on his chest, and then carefully used a dagger to remove the brooch behind the badge.
"Shitou, listen carefully. I am going to use this brooch to insert the jack of the mine pressure sensor. You must concentrate on listening to my command. When I ask you to release your feet later, you must immediately
Release your feet and lie down, do you understand?" Lanni, who had a serious look on his face, warned Liu Shitou carefully and uncharacteristically, and signaled Tang Cheng, who had already leaned over to support Liu Shitou, to leave immediately.
"I understand!" Liu Shitou took a deep breath, "Lanny, I will do what you say."
"Okay, now!" While Liu Shitou was distracted talking to him, Lanni quickly inserted the straightened brooch into the hole of the mine pressure sensor, and then shouted, "Lie down!" Liu said.
Shitou immediately let go of his feet and fell to the ground. Then Lani turned sideways and threw himself on Liu Shitou, pressing him under him. The two lay together and panted nervously. It was just an imaginary explosion.
But it never appeared.
He narrowly avoided a disaster, but Liu Shitou's face was still pale, and even his lips had no blood. "Now you know how powerful you are, let's see if you can still succeed." Tang Cheng pulled Silently.
Liu Shitou, who was still lying on the ground, stretched out his hand to rub Liu Shitou's head to comfort Liu Shitou. Thanks to Lanny for saving his life, Liu Shitou no longer dared to be as careless as before, but was just cautious.
He followed closely behind Tang Cheng, keeping Lanny's advice in mind and paying careful attention to his steps.
The order Tang Cheng received was to go out for reconnaissance. Naturally, the Japanese army had to be discovered before they could conduct reconnaissance. The group carefully walked through the dangerous minefield, and finally managed to bypass the bush area that they had to pass through. "There is something ahead.
Japanese soldiers." Yanlong lowered his figure and pointed at the bushes not far ahead. The voices of several Japanese soldiers could be heard vaguely from the bushes. It was obvious that they were just outpost soldiers.
"Lie down!" I don't know who shouted loudly. At the same time as the gunfire sounded, the people in the front row quickly fell down and were attacked by random shots. The bullets fired by the Japanese soldiers actually
Nothing was hit. Tang Cheng originally just wanted to conduct a secret reconnaissance, but he didn't expect to be shot first by the opponent's soldiers. He couldn't help but feel angry. "Lanny, lead a few brothers and rush up from the left. Yanlong and the snipers stay behind.
Let's attract their attention." Tang Cheng drank a few words, and then shouted to the brothers beside him, "The rest of the people will follow me from the right and kill them."
"Pah!" Tang Cheng, who rushed in from the right wing, raised his carbine while running. He didn't have time to aim carefully before firing. One of the khaki figures vaguely visible in the trees fell to the ground, and then he quickly
He got up and limped forward. It was obvious that the Japanese soldier was only injured. Tang Cheng fired first. Finally, the soldiers following him recovered and began to shoot at the Japanese soldiers.
shooting.
Tang Cheng obviously overestimated the determination of these Japanese soldiers to fight to the death, and also underestimated the shooting skills of his snipers. Before he and Lanni could lead the heat and outflank them from both wings, these few Japanese soldiers in the bush had no intention of fighting.
Before the Japanese soldiers could run very far, they were shot to the ground one by one by several snipers around him. It may be that the soldiers of the direct company had been idle in Xinpingyang for too long, and when they just encountered the enemy, they actually
There was a brief moment of stunned silence. If this had happened when we were still in Xinpingyang, it might have attracted an angry rebuke from Tang Cheng, but Tang Cheng didn't want to say anything more now.
The war is coming. If the soldiers of the direct company who have adapted to a comfortable life cannot adapt to the battlefield again, they will be eliminated from the battlefield. Even Tangcheng cannot help them. Collecting the weapons of these Japanese soldiers together, Lan
Ni led a team of people to search the surrounding area, while the remaining soldiers began to clean the battlefield, looking for the survivors left mercilessly by the snipers from the corpses on the ground.
The soldiers began to rummage through the corpses of the Japanese soldiers. All those in the direct company who had participated in the battle had tasted the benefits of rummaging through the corpses. Now it has almost become their habit. Tang Cheng did not pay attention to these small things. His attention was already on
Focusing on the three survivors left alive by the snipers, Tan Fei's poor Japanese finally came in handy. When Tang Cheng didn't want to question the prisoners, Tan Fei became the best choice to extract confessions.
Just like Tang Cheng had overestimated the desperate determination of these Japanese soldiers, Tan Fei only used his short knife to cut off two fingers of one of the prisoners, leaving the other two prisoners who were trembling like chaff.
Answered Tan Fei's question. "They said that 2 miles further, there is one of their strongholds. There are about 30 Japanese soldiers and a radio station in the stronghold. These few of them are also out to detect the movements of our army.
Unexpectedly, we met him halfway along the road."
Tang Cheng pondered for a moment, and then contacted Mike with a walkie-talkie. He was not interested in the Japanese army's forward stronghold, but it would be different if he could capture the Japanese army's radio station and code. At least he would have to let the headquarters know about it.
