Chapter 934: The Battle of Xiao Cao Is Over

Wang Yan and others did not go to the south slope, but to the north slope. This is not a multiple-choice question. There are many Vietnamese soldiers hiding in the mountains on the south slope, ready to attack at any time and give our army a hard time.

The sun rose in the east, and a group of more than a hundred people marched one after another for more than a hundred meters on the hillside, all trotting, and their Liberation shoes rubbed the rocks and weeds under their feet.

The defense line of the second company was also stretched out for a long time, and they repelled the attack of the Vietnamese monkeys. They were resting and transporting the wounded, etc. After the battle of Xiao Cao was over, the soldiers had begun to reinforce various places, and at the same time pushed the front line forward to hold the key points and keep the results. At that time, the soldiers would have a longer rest time to eat and sleep.

"Wang Yan?"

The second company commander was very surprised to see Wang Yan, "Why did you come to the front line?"

The instructor was also interesting, and laughed: "Let me introduce you, this is our third company's captain Wang. Those shots just now were all fired by our captain Wang, and the cannon was also called by Captain Wang."

Wang Yan, holding the camera, nodded with a smile, looking at the second company commander with wide eyes.

The second company commander turned and asked: "Where is Lao Yang?"

"He was shot in the thigh, and the bullet got stuck in the bone. He should be sent to the rear. I am now the acting company commander."

Wang Yan patted his shoulder: "Don't be reluctant to call the cannon, the sooner it explodes, the sooner it's over. Let's go, we have to support the first company."

The second company commander looked at Wang Yan in confusion as he left, and looked at the other soldiers around him, and they didn't react for a while.

They saw it clearly. During the battle, a row of people fell down, and then our artillery shells came over. Then, when the Vietnamese army retreated, another burst of gunfire knocked down several people, which relieved their crisis.

But who would have thought that it was Wang Yan who did it. They didn't even think that Wang Yan would come, but they didn't expect that he would not only come, but also be so fierce...

Like them, there are leaders at all levels above. Because although the battle here is not over now, and many places are still fighting fiercely, the preliminary battle plan has been implemented. From the overall point of view, the tension has eased a lot. So while fighting in front, various information in the back has begun to be summarized. So from the battalion commander all the way up, directly to the leaders behind, and even the Military Commission, they all know about Wang Yan's brave performance.

In the early stage of the battle on the western front, there were three targets, the 11th Army fought Fengtu, the 13th Army fought Basha, and the 14th Army fought Laojie. And Xiao Cao's battle determined whether the battle plan for Laojie could be carried out smoothly.

Wang Yan, a well-known writer and songwriter, who was a deputy battalion-level art soldier in the art troupe and had fought all the way through the Kunming Military Region, had already gone to the Military Commission when he asked to fight at the beginning of the war. It was nothing else, it was just that Wang Dapao was too famous and too many people knew him.

At the beginning of the war, Wang Yan was a sharpshooter, suppressing three machine gun positions on the opposite side by himself. When crossing the river, the first spearhead troops to cross the river passed through their area. Wang Yan was the second batch to cross the river, and it can be said that he was one of the first troops to attack the north side of Xiaocao.

It took Wang Yan more than an hour to break through the first line of defense of the Vietnamese army and open up the situation first. Then it took more than three hours to break through the second line of defense and penetrate Xiaocao, dividing the battlefield in Xiaocao Village. Then, it took only half an hour to capture three high ground. He also assisted other troops to repel the attack of the Vietnamese army.

This is the result of Wang Yan's battle from the beginning of the war to now, about seven hours ago. He rushed all the way, invincible, and invincible. Although the number of enemies killed has not been counted, at least two companies were killed. Wang Yan's troops, including Captain Yang, only lost seven people.

Of course, this affects their combat effectiveness and they can no longer continue to fight. There are many injured, including stone collapse injuries and bullet scratches, and more than 20 people. However, they are all considered minor injuries. They can run and jump without affecting the battle.

Such a heroic performance should have been known to the leaders in the rear, not to mention Wang Yan, who has a resounding name.

In fact, this is still Wang Yan's restrained fighting. Although abnormal, it is not very abnormal, not particularly exaggerated...

The battle of the first company is far apart. 800 meters is the straight-line distance between the hilltops, but it is not the distance that Wang Yan and his team have to walk. When Wang Yan and others crossed the mountains and ridges, they had nearly doubled the distance. They did not go in a straight line, but took a big circle.

More than a hundred people hid their whereabouts on the top of the mountain. They were more than 200 meters away from the first company, and more than 100 meters away from them was the firepower point built by the Vietnamese army.

Further away on the south slope, enemy reinforcements can be seen. For this kind of enemy, of course, artillery is more effective. The Vietnamese troops are all at the foot of the mountain, and one shot will hit them accurately.

Wang Yan found the communicator and reported the coordinates: "Ask the artillery if it can be reached."

Soon, the communicator replied: "They are advancing their positions, and it will take five minutes."

"The third platoon stays here and sets up machine guns. Wait for these Vietnamese monkeys to come up before fighting. The second platoon advances to the ridge over there. You must be careful. There may be bunkers and tunnels here. Don't get caught. I will lead the first company to take down that hilltop, and then you can reinforce it. We will join the first company and kill all the Vietnamese retreating on the hilltop over there."

Wang Yan made arrangements while pointing at various places.

The battle here is very fierce, because this is the outer area on the east side of Xiaocao Village. The Vietnamese troops who retreated from Xiaocao retreated in all directions. At the same time, Laojie had also received news that reinforcements were coming. It can be imagined that in the mountains to the west, the Vietnamese army is urgently building various fortifications to delay our army's offensive speed, waiting for reinforcements from the rear, and defending Laojie.

So this led to fierce fighting here, and the battle for the commanding firepower point was very difficult.

And the real battlefield would not be hundreds of people gathered together to shoot at each other. The strength of a company is enough to cover all directions of the entire mountain. Even if it is fully deployed, with squads supporting squads and platoons supporting platoons, it can cover hundreds of meters horizontally for combat, which can be said to be all over the mountains.

Following Wang Yan's order, more than a hundred people in the company immediately dispersed. Wang Yan also held a gun, bowed and walked carefully. A row of soldiers were scattered around him, stretched out very long and separated.

Suddenly, Wang Yan raised his hand, and the soldiers who were watching his movements immediately stopped, lay down in the grass, and hid. Not far away on the opposite side, there were two Vietnamese soldiers smoking, but their position was biased to the north, and their vision was limited, so they did not find Wang Yan and others.

There was of course more than one bunker here. Wang Yan silently scanned every area, and then pointed to his combat team, arranging one in a group. They silently crawled closer, trying to resolve the battle silently.

The process was very smooth. Wang Yan watched the three of his men cooperate. When the distance was almost right, the three of them stood up and sprinted. Two people jumped up and kicked the soldiers in the bunker away, and followed them in. Another person shook the gun, hung the bayonet, and went in and stabbed, calling it clean and neat.

There must be movement, but shells were flying all over the sky, and the sound of gunfire continued, so the small sound of fighting here could not be transmitted at all.

It is certain that the combat effectiveness of the current soldiers has declined. They are definitely not as good as the soldiers in the 1950s and 1960s, after all, they were trained with real guns and live ammunition. But if you say that the training is not good, that is definitely not the case. The decline in combat effectiveness is not because the soldiers are slack.

A set of tactics also depends on who is going to execute it. Except for the squad leader, platoon leader, and instructor, most of the soldiers under Wang Yan are new recruits with one or two or three years of experience. But even so, under the leadership of Wang Yan, they are still quite fierce. Wang Yan is very confident that without him as the vanguard, the casualties of the soldiers will indeed be greater at the beginning, but when they adapt to the battlefield and integrate the previous training, they will still be quite powerful. Just like other companies, they are like this.

The main reason is that they have not developed new tactics, have not adapted to the coordination of infantry and tanks, infantry and artillery, and the corresponding communication command, logistics supply, etc. This is a complete set of military system construction. In other words, it has been built and adapted, but not good enough. Fighting this battle, the leaders may not have no intention of testing the army.

But the situation is different decades later. They say that the army has not fought for decades and has no combat effectiveness. But at that time, it was already beyond visual range combat. The range of ordinary rocket launchers was hundreds of kilometers, and various missiles were thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers. They could also be launched outside the earth and then landed on the ground to attack. At that time, the role of the army infantry was not as good as it is now. They were mainly responsible for cleaning the battlefield and picking up the pieces.

This is why, since the new century, the army has been carrying out mixed construction, which is to continuously improve the army's movement and attack capabilities, highlighting speed and fierceness. This is not to mention the construction and development of the Air Force, Navy, and Rocket Force...

Wang Yan found a total of eight firepower points, and the soldiers removed them one by one without firing a single shot. Among them, Wang Yan only killed three people. It was a relatively high firepower point, so Wang Yan took action himself, crawled over, turned over and entered the trench, and killed them with three punches and two kicks.

But things will not go smoothly. When Wang Yan was acting silently, gunshots were heard from the second row behind, and a fight broke out, and there were faint shouts of grief and anger.

"Company commander, there is an ambush in the second platoon, and a brother is injured." The soldier near the south side informed Wang Yan.

At the same time, the third platoon with machine guns on the hillside behind also immediately suppressed the enemy, but in doing so, it exposed its position to the reinforcements. Wang Yan ran up the slope and saw the swaggering Vietnamese soldiers immediately bent their waists and began to disperse in battle formation, coming over here, while suppressing the enemy.

"Xiao Liang, ask if the gun is ready? If it is, go...bomb it for me." Wang Yan turned around and called, and reported the new coordinates to the communicator.

The communicator's surname is Liang. He has been in the army for two years and is only nineteen years old, so he is called Xiao Liang. He also participated in the battle and stabbed someone to death just now.

Wang Yan did not stop, and asked his men to pay attention to the rear, and he went to the second platoon under the bullets. The firepower point here must be removed, otherwise the second platoon will be finished if it is attacked from both sides. Still dozens of meters away, Wang Yan pulled out a grenade from his waist and threw it at the bunker in the distance, which exploded inside with great accuracy.

The soldiers who were attacking did not hesitate at all, jumped into the bunker to eliminate the remaining enemies, turned the muzzle of a light machine gun, and suppressed the enemy below with firepower.

There were not many bunkers here, only three. The second platoon had already taken down one, and Wang Yan killed one with a grenade. The last one was left, and he kept firing and attacking the soldiers in the second platoon.

Wang Yan picked up the five or six semi-automatic rifle, without aiming. At a distance of less than 100 meters, there was no need to aim. Bang bang, two shots killed the Vietnamese soldiers inside. The instructor took the lead and rushed in directly, turning the muzzle of the gun in the same way to suppress the Vietnamese soldiers below with firepower.

All this happened within a few dozen seconds. After clearing the bunker, Wang Yan glanced at the battlefield situation, and then quickly moved down the hillside. There were two soldiers lying on the ground, and a soldier was dragging them. But this was a hillside, and it was difficult for them to borrow strength, so it was very difficult for them to walk. Wang Yan went over, picked them up one by one, and ran towards the third row position. It was safer there, and on the way there, there was an awkward place to avoid the enemy's sight.

Of course there were people shouting at the beginning, but now no one is shouting, they are just cursing and shooting.

Wang Yan carried his injured brother on his back all the way to the north side, then put the two of them down and began to check the injuries. One soldier was shot in the stomach and thigh, and another soldier was in better condition. He was only shot in the shoulder and arm, which was not fatal.

"Company Commander, can I still live?" The soldier who was shot in the stomach struggled to speak.

"You can live if you don't talk so much nonsense. You earn your life, not the Lord of Hell. Now the bullet has upset your intestines. You won't die for a while. You have to persevere. Come on, put some saliva in your mouth. ”

Wang Yan quickly untied the soldier's leggings, tied up the wounds on his stomach and thighs, took his water bottle, fed him a sip of water, let him lie down there, and went to deal with another Xi Ya. He held back his grin so as not to disturb Wang Yan's warrior.

At this time, the familiar cannonballs broke through the air again. Because the enemies hitting the south slope had a low trajectory, they passed right above Wang Yan's head.

The correspondent also ran over, waiting for Wang Yan's instructions.

"Ask the battalion commander to send someone over to pick up the wounded, and then contact the first company and tell them that I will seize the high ground and ask them to cooperate in the attack and attract firepower."

After saying that, Wang Yan rushed out again and took a look at the third row's position. The Vietnamese army below had been bombed to pieces, but the attrition was limited. After all, there is no way that a leader with more than a hundred people could be killed in one shelling.

But the artillery is not given for free. The coordinates are the directions, but the artillery fires based on the area of ​​the directions, covering a large area. The attrition is limited, there are still more than ten or twenty people.

This wave of shelling solved a big problem, and our army occupied favorable terrain. The Vietnamese army attacked up the slope, and the situation was very good.

Wang Yan told the third platoon to pay attention to the shelling, and then went back to move the two wounded soldiers farther away. Then he took a squad of soldiers and launched an attack on the high ground.

It would be advantageous for them to attack the high ground, but because of what happened to the second platoon just now, their intentions had been exposed. The Vietnamese army had already set up firepower in this direction. It was no longer possible to go up quietly. They still had to attack by force.

However, Wang Yan's strong attack was different from others. From a distance of tens of meters, three grenades were able to deal with the enemy's firepower. His throws were far and accurate. Then the soldiers provided fire cover from behind. He quickly approached and directly dealt with the remaining enemies who were not killed but stunned by the bombing, and then went to the fire point on the north side.

First, two grenades opened the way, and two soldiers armed with five- and six-guns who had been prepared for a long time attacked directly, and in an instant, a shuttle of bullets was fired first. Wang Yan and another soldier behind him continued to suppress them with five or six halves.

The remaining seven people in this large firepower spot were all killed. Then the soldiers quickly turned the muzzle of the machine gun and suppressed fire on the high ground about 200 meters away.

Over there, our soldiers are already launching another round of attack. You can see that there is another reinforcement coming from further at the foot of the mountain, about a platoon of people. Wang Yan and the others are not the only reinforcements.

Leaving a few soldiers here to provide firepower, Wang Yan found soldiers carrying flamethrowers. In the position below, there were some tunnels. The Vietnamese army hid in them and suddenly attacked. Because of these hidden tunnels, they suffered continuous losses. heavy. The corpses of some of our soldiers on the hillside illustrate this point.

Wang Yan led his men to walk on the hillside. It didn't take long before they discovered a hole where a gun was fired.

After receiving the signal from Wang Yan's eyes, the soldier carrying the flamethrower quietly approached and sprayed at the entrance of the cave. In an instant, flames surged into the hole.

"Ah~~"

A loud shouting was heard, and the Vietnamese monkey that had already fallen asleep in the cave crawled out, and then rolled down. He was still shouting, and the rapid rolling made his screams out of shape, which was very scary to hear.

But the flames on his body did not go out, because the burning object was not his clothes, but the gasoline sprayed all over him. Just for a moment, Wang Yan could smell a burnt aroma.

The soldier using the flamethrower obviously didn't expect such a big reaction, and was frightened. This is normal, after all, no one will actually come to spray them when they are training.

"Company Commander, this thing works so well." He shouted, a little excited.

Wang Yan waved his hand: "Okay, this bullet flew in a whoosh, and you did the same thing when it pierced the oil barrel. You should keep your back further, just to test the effect, it won't be used for a while. You two should go up too, and suppress it. enemy."

After all, he had discovered the potholes, but the little monkeys hiding inside did not notice the movement on his side. They didn't even know it was above their heads, so it was easy to solve.

This kind of secret passage in the mountains is not long inside, which means that only one or two people can fit in it. They will not invest a lot of energy to hollow out the mountain and form a network extending in all directions. However, in this war, there is also such a place, but it is obviously not here.

The greatest value of these pits is actually to catch the enemy by surprise at the first time. Just like the casualties caused to the first company, it was these Vietnamese monkeys who waited for the first company to attack and suddenly concentrated their firepower.

Without secrecy, the advantages of these pits are lost by half.

Wang Yan did not use anyone to follow him, he removed the pit firepower points here by himself. When he touched the top, he shot the head with a pistol at close range.

But that's all he could do. He couldn't get through the firepower points in the distance under the muzzle of the opposite side. Even so, the part of the firepower points he solved here also relieved a lot of pressure on the first company.

And the reinforcements of the platoon also climbed up. This is because they saw the situation clearly and thought that instead of collapsing with the first company, it would be better to crush another hill together with Wang Yan's third company.

But the result was unexpected. When they climbed up, they saw that the third company was not easy either and was still blocking the enemy.

"Wang Yan, what should we do?" The reinforcement platoon leader asked Wang Yan for his opinion.

The soldiers fighting here already knew that Wang Yan was coming. As a reinforcement, he also knew that the third company had changed its commander. However, Wang Yan was in the Kunming Military Region, and everyone called him by his name. He was used to it. Now that he became the company commander, he couldn't change it.

"The third company is blocking here. You follow me to go around from the south and take that hill. Be careful, there may be a bunker here. My second platoon was hit before, and two brothers were injured."

After saying this, Wang Yan put away the camera and waved his hand, "Let's go!"

After that, he ran away.

The reinforcements behind him didn't hesitate. They followed Wang Yan and spread out in battle formation. They had to avoid the bullets from the opposite high ground and the bullets from the Vietnamese army below who were frantically supporting them.

The soldiers of the third company under Wang Yan also became ruthless. They frantically suppressed the opposite high ground and the Vietnamese army on the south slope with firepower, covering Wang Yan and others to run to the opposite hill.

Everyone understood the key now. As long as they took down these two hills and gained the commanding heights, they would win the battle for the position. As for the people in other firing points, as many as they died, they could not escape, they were surrounded. As for the pits that were not easy to find, they burned them from top to bottom with flamethrowers, burning monkeys, and burning them all out.

The reinforcement platoon leader and other soldiers soon saw how Wang Yan became the company commander. There was a machine gun on the slope? Bang, one shot! Still sweeping? Another shot! Someone threw a grenade? A sideways, a chic whip kick in the air, accurately kicked the grenade back, and it exploded in the air! What, pinching the grenade to count? Bang, one shot! Boom!

It was so exaggerated, really like a god of war.

He ran fast, while running, doing various tactical moves, rushing up against the bullets.

Finally, Wang Yan took the lead and rushed to the high ground, kicked away the Vietnamese soldiers who were about to shoot, and stabbed them to death with a bayonet. The supporting platoon leader behind him followed with a drooping arm. With strong arm and wrist strength, he controlled the five or six charges and fired steadily into the trench.

The soldiers behind jumped into the trench with bayonets, and without saying a word, they stabbed. Then they quickly carried the machine guns and deployed them on the south slope to suppress the Vietnamese soldiers below. Other soldiers jumped down consciously and removed the firepower points from top to bottom.

"Damn, there are dozens of us here, and I was the only one shot." The platoon leader grinned and took out a cigarette from his pocket, put one in his mouth, gestured to Wang Yan, and muttered, "Should I say it, you are really fucking fierce."

Now the battle is basically over.

Wang Yan took out a cigarette and lit it for the platoon leader, then lit it for himself: "You just found out? I used to be invincible in our Kunming Military Region, but you all think I'm a joke? You think I'm a paper tiger and I'm blind once I go to the battlefield?"

While talking, Wang Yan untied the platoon leader's leggings and looked at the wound on his arm. The bullet swept away a piece of flesh and there was a big gap. This is a machine gun, even a light machine gun, if it is fired at the right time and unlucky, it can also break the arm.

Watching Wang Yan bandaging his wound, the platoon leader frowned, took a puff of cigarette and said with a cough: "How dare I think you can go to the battlefield? You are the only one in your family, and you are so fierce. Don't talk about me, even the King of Hell would grin his teeth when he sees it."

"What does defending the country have to do with the number of people in the family? I wrote so many songs and told you so many heroes. If I don't go to the war, I will look down on myself. Okay, you stay here and go back to recuperate after the war. Don't be stubborn, this is not thirty years ago. Come, take a photo of you, who knows, I can do it in the future In the newspaper. Fighting this, oh yes, there must be Vietnamese monkeys as the background.

You have to be relaxed, a few minor injuries, what's the big deal? You also have to be arrogant, how dare the little Vietnamese monkeys challenge my great country? You have to despise them. Oh, yes, that's the feeling. I'll send you the photos when they are developed, and you can brag about it for the rest of your life. "

Wang Yan took a photo of the supporting platoon leader, and another of the Vietnamese soldiers who were blocking the crazy attack at the foot of the mountain, then walked away and lay down to avoid artillery fire, and then pointed his gun at the Vietnamese soldiers at the foot of the mountain and began to call out names.

His killing efficiency was very high. The soldiers all fired in the general direction, and he deliberately aimed, basically one shot one. There were also other soldiers' fire suppression, and he fired one shot after another, which was very comfortable. At the beginning, one or two deaths were not a big deal, but gradually more and more deaths, and the firepower on the top of the mountain was strong, the Vietnamese army could not attack, so they retreated.

It would not be a wise choice to fight for the position at this time. What they should do is to seize the time to set up defense lines and block the PLA for a longer time.

Soon, the Vietnamese army was beaten back, and the various firepower points on the north slope were quickly removed by the soldiers. The whole operation process was smooth.

But there were casualties. After all, bullets are not relatives of anyone, and they can recognize people. There can be no casualties in a battle for positions with hundreds of people. It's just that because of Wang Yan's existence, the enemy's death toll is higher.

From beginning to end, this side was not bombarded by artillery except mortars. It can be seen that the coordinates provided by Wang Yan to the rear were very accurate. The enemy's artillery positions were bombarded and new reinforcements have not come yet.

It is now ten o'clock in the morning. The sound of gunfire is much sparser than in the morning and last night. This indicates that Xiao Cao's battle is basically over. Next, the battle of Laojie will really start...
