Chapter 9 To Liangshui Cave

"This scholar is indeed a scholar. He speaks very well. It turns out that using charcoal to make fire without smoke. This black wooden block has such great ability. I really heard it once."

The company commander Zhao Yifa, who was confused, had listened to the instructor Wang Wenju and popularized the relevant knowledge about charcoal in an easy-to-understand manner, then he realized it. He took out a small black piece of wood from the sack, played with it in his hand for several times, and said in a tone of surprise.

Zhao Yifa, a company commander like a curious baby, was curious about the source of charcoal, and asked Sun Lei, who was standing beside him: "Just just now, the instructor talked about the formation and source of charcoal. How did you know that after being bombed by American Japanese fighter jets, there would be charcoal in the places on the roadside where there would be charcoal?"

In the face of the inquiry from company commander Zhao Yifa, Sun Lei, who had already made up his mind, set off in a standing military posture and reported loudly: "Report to company commander, when we entered those broken houses just now, I observed it around and found that most of the houses were made of wooden structures.

"After being bombed by US fighter jets, I made a bold judgment. Although the dilapidated houses were bombed into ruins, due to bombing, the wooden structure of the house, under the violent combustion of high temperatures, maybe we will be blessed in disguise and can get a lot of charcoal.

"And, there is still a lot of charcoal in that place. I just held a sack and couldn't hold it at all. I looked at it and said that so much charcoal can be used to make a fire for at least last week. The recruit Sun Lei finished his answer and asked the company commander to give instructions."

Just now, the company commander Zhao Yifa immediately smiled after listening to Sun Lei's report.

He immediately issued an order, "What are you still standing there? Take more soldiers and bring them with you, and put them on, and fill them up. Damn, let's use charcoal to make a fire in the future."

Just after the company commander Zhao Yi gave the order, Sun Lei responded to "Yes", he led at least one platoon of soldiers and various guys who could hold things and ran towards the ruins that were blown up more than a hundred meters away.

After about an hour, Sun Lei and the soldiers in the platoon returned home with a full load. The backpacks, backpacks, sacks, etc. in their hands filled the black charcoal, large and small.

Using charcoal to make fire to cook and keep warm, all the officers and soldiers of the third company stayed in this large dense forest, from the dawn of the morning until night fell.

After dinner, they evacuated the forest, smeared the night road, and headed towards the Yunshan area.

Originally, the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju discussed and decided that after dinner this morning, they would rest on site for two hours before rushing to the road, but Sun Lei dissuaded them.

Sun Lei believes that he has now entered the hinterland of the mountainous area on the back of the Korean Peninsula. If you march during the day, the more you move forward, the more you will be discovered by US fighter jets that frequently patrol in the air.

In addition, many US and South Korean troops are heading towards the mountainous areas on the back of the Korean Peninsula. If they encounter large groups of troops during the day, an encounter will inevitably occur.

If the fight starts, their third company will not only lose troops, but will probably delay their trip, and will be surrounded and intercepted by the US and South Korean troops on the northbound troops. They will not be able to arrive in the Yunshan area as originally scheduled.

Since US fighter jets are almost never dispatched at night, the US and South Korean troops will also rest at night. Therefore, if their third company chooses to hide in the forest during the day and marches again at night, it will not be easy to be discovered.

After listening to Sun Lei's suggestion, instructor Wang Wenju and company commander Zhao Yifa both thought this idea was quite good, so they immediately adopted it and decided to rest during the day and march at night.

Although, in a large dense forest that was only more than 100 meters away from the place where they were just bombed into ruins, the US-South Korea fighter pilot who found them also reported to the US-South Korea Joint Operations Command in the rear.

However, their third company stayed in this large dense wood for a whole day, and did not find any U.S. fighter jets throwing bombs at them, or ground forces of the U.S. and South Korean troops launched attacks on them.

This is mainly because since the United Nations forces led by the United States and the South Korean army arrived in Pyongyang, the defeated North Korean people fled everywhere, and there were so many small troops fleeing everywhere.

If all the small troops fleeing everywhere were siege and intercepted, it would definitely cost a lot of manpower, material resources and financial resources, so how could I have this leisure time?

Therefore, the rear command naturally ignored the report of this US fighter pilot.

It was precisely because of this that Sun Lei suggested that they would not have to move in the third company and would continue to stay in the forest until the evening.

In this way, we rested during the day and marched at night. After walking for six days, on the morning of October 25, the Third Company finally arrived more than 30 miles away from Yunshan.

Since there are no forests within a few kilometers of this place, it is impossible for them to use the forests as a cover. Company Commander Zhao Yifa immediately decided that they would occupy a strategic high ground in the third company first.

When all the officers and soldiers of the Third Company arrived at a strategic highland in the narrow valley at 8 o'clock in the morning, they took a temporary rest. After all, it would be impossible to walk the night road for a night, and it would be impossible to stop and rest for a few hours.

The soldiers of the first platoon and second squad of the third company who were in charge of the periphery reported to the company commander Zhao Yifa and instructor Wang Wenju that they had discovered a boundary marker five hundred meters away, which was written in Korean, and they could not understand it at all.

"Comrades, I will reveal a new situation to everyone. The comrades who are responsible for the guards on the outside have found a boundary marker, which is written in Korean. I would like to ask comrades, who can understand Korean? Let's take a look with me." Company Commander Zhao Yifa walked among the soldiers who were resting and asked with a serious face.

Sun Lei, who had eyes bleary and made sure he was not sleepy, stood up from the snow all the time and reported: "Report to the company commander, I can understand Korean language."

The company commander Zhao Yifa, who was in a very urgent mood, immediately said, "Okay, just Sun Lei, go and go with me to have a look."

Soon, it took about a minute to wait until the company commander Zhao Yifa, instructor Wang Wenju, and Sun Lei and his soldiers arrived in front of the boundary marker.
