Chapter 17 Flying across the Red River
"go ahead!"
"Prepare to set off!"
After fifteen minutes of intensive attacks, the infantry finally began to charge under the cover of the God of War!
The telephone and radio signals of various command centers, companies, and platoons were constantly conveying. These receiving devices were like blood vessels in the human body, sending the orders from our army's highest command center to the forefront. Among the continuous arrival of combat orders, the soldiers of the third battalion were the first to be hit, and the soldiers who had already prepared had sailed across the Red River like divine weapons descending from the sky.
However, the entire battle scene was different from the movies and TV that Wen Feng watched thirty-three years later. There was no nervous music accompaniment here, and no charge sound was heard, and there would be no stupid soldier holding the red flag as a target to charge.
The entire offensive field was neat and orderly, as if it had been practiced thousands of times. At this time, our army had been stationed at the front for three or four months and finally came out. Even though there were half of the recruits in most companies, everything went extremely smoothly when the Third Battalion crossed the Red River.
"Bang bang!"
"Boom!"
However, after crossing the Honghe River, when the Third Battalion rushed into the dense forest opposite, the battle still took place as scheduled. The artillery fire could not annihilate all the enemies. The undead Vietnamese army began to crazily block the charge of the Third Battalion.
"Let's go down and spread out!"
"Get me...the blasting team brings me!"
"Second row cover, firepower...fuck, what about machine guns..."
The sound of gunfire and grenade explosion suddenly became dense, and the thunderous flames of the machine gun flashed in the dense forest. Wen Feng and Li Fei could even hear the commanders of the Third Battalion shouting loudly with their voices open.
"Sanitation officer..."
"Quick, someone is injured!"
"Cover, lift the wounded down!"
As the sharp knife company of the assault battalion, the 7th Company inserted into the defense line of the Vietnamese army like a sharp blade. However, perhaps because their actions yesterday alarmed the enemy, the resistance of the enemy ahead was extremely fierce. The war was intertwined and the two sides suffered casualties, and soon some soldiers were injured.
"Get out of here, get out of here!"
Soon, a stretcher appeared from the other side. Under the protection of two soldiers and a sanitary officer, a soldier was quickly carried down. They wade by the boat, making the boat as stable as possible, and quickly landed ashore and rushed by Wen Feng and the others.
This soldier may be the first wounded soldier to the XX Army after the general attack on Vietnam started. This is also the first time that the soldiers in a row have seen real combat reductions.
The comrade of the 7th Company was not clearly injured. Wenfeng and Li Fei glanced at the stretcher. A pale young face with cold sweat appeared in their eyes. Blood was overflowing in the corner of his mouth, and the bottom of his left ear seemed to be completely dyed red by blood. The person was completely confused. A first aid kit was pressed on his neck. His paper-like pale face and the dyed first aid kit seemed so dazzling in Wenfeng and his eyes.
The test of blood and fire, the desperate battle between real swords and guns was about to begin. Seeing this injured comrade, the hearts of the soldiers suddenly tightened. Wen Feng tightened his fists hard, and found that his hands were sweating. When his eyes fell on the faces of the soldiers behind him, their faces were particularly moved in the morning light, and even fear appeared in his eyes.
This is indeed not a game. Of course, there is no wizard who recovers blood, and it is impossible to resurrect it in full blood. Looking at the comrades who are dying, Wen Feng and Li Fei can't help but show a little despair in their eyes.
However, Wen Feng quickly thought of the responsibilities he was carrying now, so he gritted his teeth and shouted loudly at the soldiers in the row:
"Comrades, don't be afraid! It's useless to be afraid. Party members and cadres suddenly come forward and advance with me! The brave ones win when the two armies meet. As long as we form an overwhelming advantage against the enemy with our fearless fighting spirit, the enemy will definitely be more afraid than us!"
This is a new army, a boy scout who has never been on the battlefield. For most people, even Wenfeng and veterans, they are afraid of the injured and fallen comrades, as well as the indestructible artillery bullets, they are inevitably afraid and tremble all over. However, to mature these new army as soon as possible, the leading role of cadres is extremely important. Setting an example and teaching by example is definitely the best way.
At the same time, in order to make the soldiers more determined and stimulate their enthusiasm for fighting in their hearts, Wen Feng felt that what he said was shameless, but there seemed to be no better way to provoke the battles of the soldiers of this era:
"Remember our training results closely and firmly abide by the laws of survival on the battlefield taught by the squad leader. Think about it, behind us, there are the support of hundreds of millions of compatriots. Think about it, our actions have saved tens of thousands of overseas compatriots. Even if we sacrificed our lives, we are martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country. If we can come back alive, we will be the heroes of the country! We can make contributions and receive awards!"
"I order! The whole platoon will move forward! Protect the mule and horse brigade to cross the river!"
"clear!"
"Squad 1 is ahead, and the rear of the second squad follows up, with fire support at any time, heavy machine gun squad covers, and the third squad assists the mule and horse brigade to cross the river!"
"yes!"
A row of soldiers knelt on the sand on the river beach with one leg, holding steel guns in both hands, listening to Wen Feng's passionate instructions. The soldiers' emotions changed indeed under the mobilization of the platoon leader. When the orders of the platoon leader and the squad leader were issued, the soldiers' faces returned to normal. Many soldiers even showed excitement in their eyes, and unusual flush appeared on their faces.
"Go forward! Move quickly!"
Wen Feng faithfully fulfilled his promise, and he rushed to the front of the team without hesitation. Li Fei, the guy behind the back of the radio, followed closely with Wen Feng at the front of the team, which made the comrades in the row admire him.
"Ship 1, get on the boat, and squad 2, help the comrades in the machine gun squad!"
The correspondent of the 7th Company in front had already set off the banner of safe passage in front of the dense forest. Wen Feng led the team to the bank of the Honghe River and immediately gave orders loudly to Fang Zhijun and Zhao Fulai. After all, the equipment of the heavy machine gun squad was all big, and they were here to assist, so it would be embarrassing not to help.
"Zhuang Jianguo, let the mule and horse brigade come up quickly!"
"yes!"
"Lin Xiaojun, report to the company commander, saying that we have started crossing the river!"
"clear!"
Wen Feng ran and shouted, and it took less than 3 minutes to reach the scheduled crossing position in the row. Once he really entered the battle, Wen Feng found that he was afraid. At this time, all his mind was thinking about the mission, and how to make the soldiers better engage in the battle.
"Into the water!"
"Dong, dun, dun!"
Wen Feng's voice seemed particularly clear in the morning light, and the soldiers seemed to have found their backbone. Seeing Wen Feng's tall figure standing on the river bank, they all forgot to be afraid.
"Squad leader, fuck, this river is so fucking cold!"
The first recruit from a squad was the first to jump down. After this period of ideological transformation, this kid was not as scared as Wen Feng saw him, but the kid was too nervous and stepped onto the small ark and was even carried into the water all at once.
"What are we afraid of? We are not afraid of bleeding and sweating, but we are also afraid that he is a little cold! Consolidation, you kid will kill a few Vietnamese Japanese devils in a while, and I will ask you for me!"
Wen Feng was happy when he saw the grinning look after consolidating the river. He immediately encouraged him. He said that Wen Feng used to manage the company in the past, and how to improve the enthusiasm of the company's employees, he still had two ways to improve the work enthusiasm of the company's employees. This method was also unsatisfactory when used in the army.
"Platform leader, don't worry! If you have time to ask me to shoot on the battlefield, I will definitely make the Vietnamese feel uncomfortable!"
For new recruits like Gonggu, Wen Feng's performance this month is definitely like their idols. It is simply a typical example of young people's inspirational stories. In addition, his shooting skills that shocked the entire regiment have long made all new recruits target him!
"Okay, I'll teach you when I'm on the battlefield!"
Haha laughed loudly, and the hearty laughter in the literary style seemed to make everyone forget that this was in a war environment. He also jumped into the Red River in one step, then held it up and consolidated it onto the ark, and quickly led the entire ship of soldiers to the other side.
"It turns out that with such a group of brothers, it seems that it feels good!"
The river was indeed very cold. It suddenly jumped down, as if the boiling blood had solidified, but Wen Feng felt that his heart was hot. It turned out that while infecting others, his fighting enthusiasm could also be ignited by the soldiers.
The soldiers boarded the ark without hesitation. Faced with the cold Red River water and unknown dangers, they only a little encouraged by literary style. These young people who had never been to the battlefield rushed to the battlefield. There was no bonus, they would not be granted officials and beauties, and of course there would be no houses or cars. Their pure purpose was to defend the motherland and fight for honor. Seeing these simple and brave guardians of the country, Wen Feng and Li Fei couldn't help but feel respectful...
