Chapter 103 Killing the enemy to serve the country
More than ten days passed in a flash, and Fu Min wrote a letter saying that he would rush home within the next two days at the latest. Today was the last day. When Fu Lanhua left for school, her parents told her brother that he would be back today.
Finally the school bell rang. Fu Lanhua basically didn't listen to what the teacher said in class today. All she could think about was her brother's return home. She got on her bicycle and hurried on the way to school. At this time, Ying
Xiang came panting and told her: "Lanhua come home soon, Brother Fu Min is back!"
"Really?" Lanhua was so excited that she finally expected her brother to come back. So she urged Ying Xiang and said, "Quickly." They got in the car and went straight to the village.
It's like a competition. I wish I could grow wings and fly home to see my brother.
Pedestrians and classmates on the road didn't know what happened to them, but they saw the two of them riding very fast, ringing the bell tightly as they walked, "ding ding, ding ding!" The pedestrians on the road were frightened and fled.
When they reached the broken bridge at the edge of the village, Ying Xiang hurriedly shouted from behind: "Lanhua, stop!"
But it was too late. The driver of the Lanhua car fell on the bridge with the car. Fortunately, the Lanhua car also slowed down, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous.
Lanhua sat on the shabby bridge, with one foot stuck in the hole, and her hands and arms were covered with sand. This scared Ying Xiang half to death, and he didn't even bother to put down the car ladder and put down the car.
After leaving the car, he ran over to help Orchid. He asked with concern: "How is Orchid? Is it hurt from the fall? Is there any injury?"
Lanhua sat still. She moved her hands and arms, and stretched her waist. She felt it was nothing, but her legs and butt hurt from squatting. She smiled bitterly and said: "It's okay, help me take out my feet."
Ying Xiang carefully held her leg and gently pulled it. He heard Orchid make a "squeak" sound, and when his foot was pulled out of the hole, it was scratched by a grain of sand. Ying Xiang asked urgently: "What's wrong? Is your foot injured?"
"
Lanhua didn't say anything. She was helped by Ying Xiang and walked a few steps. Seeing that she was fine, she subconsciously wiped the sweat on her face with her hands and said, "It's okay. My feet were numb just now. I thought they were broken."
.”
"Nonsense, how can you be so relaxed if you have a broken bone? You would have started shouting a long time ago." Ying Xiang said, seeing that Lanhua was fine, he was relieved, but when he raised his head and took a look at Lanhua, he couldn't help but
Laughing loudly. It turns out that orchid
When I inadvertently wiped the sweat from my face with my hands, I actually got the sand on my face all over my face. After being soaked with sweat, it turned into mud. My whole face seemed to be covered with makeup, just like the "Clown" in the play.
"Exactly the same, very funny.
Lanhua was embarrassed by Ying Xiang's smile. She pouted and said, "Go!" Then she took out a piece of paper and quickly wiped the dirt and sweat from her face. While wiping the dirt from her face, she deliberately frightened Ying Xiang and said, "Okay.
Wow, I fell like this, and you not only didn’t help me, but you also laughed at me. I’ll tell my uncle and aunt when I get home, and see if they don’t beat you up. Huh.”
Now Ying Xiang became anxious, and he argued: "Hey, please don't sue good people, okay? I've been helping you, and I see you're fine. You wiped your face so dirty, can't I just smile?"
You stingy guy, come on, why don’t you laugh if you don’t laugh?”
"Hold the car up for me." Fu Lanhua said proudly: "If you're afraid of getting beaten, just obey."
"Okay, my little ancestor, I'm convinced." Ying Xiang handed the car over and said, "Are you really okay? Stop making trouble, let's go home quickly."
Fu Lanhua and Ying Xiang got back on their bicycles. She looked back at the broken bridge behind her and muttered: "What do the village cadres do for a living? This bridge can no longer be walked on and we don't even think about repairing it."
.”
Ying Xiang said: "The secretary Qin in our village said he had no money to repair it."
Fu Lanhua said angrily: "Where do they get the money to eat and drink all day long? When I grow up, I must improve this bridge!"
At noon, when they rode in the door, Fu Lanhua immediately felt that the atmosphere at home was different from usual. Neighbors came in and out, all with smiles on their faces, and laughter could be heard in the house.
There were people sitting and some standing; some chatting and some teasing. It was quite lively.
It seems that the family is lighting a fire to cook. Mother and Aunt Juxiang are busy rolling up their sleeves and wondering what they are doing. There are also neighbor's Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Zheng who are also helping to prepare. Some of them are rolling out noodles, washing vegetables, and others.
The ones lighting the fire were not idle anyway. They were busy working in the outer room, but no one said anything.
Lanhua ran into the house happily. She had been looking forward to and waiting for her brother for days. At this moment, she wanted to rush into the house to see her brother. However, she heard her brother talking so excitedly to someone in the back room.
It was not appropriate for her to go in rashly and disturb them, so she impatiently opened the door curtain to a small gap, and glanced at her brother through this small gap. At this time, she heard his familiar and amiable voice again.
sound.
While she was greeting her aunt and neighbor sisters-in-law softly, she asked: "Aunt, when did my brother get home?"
Yu Juxiang replied softly: "I've been home for a while. Listen, your brother is telling everyone the story of their war."
She waved to Ying Xiang in the yard and took two small stools. They quietly sat at the door of the back room and listened to her brother telling the story of the battle:
...The Vietnamese monkeys are also very good at fighting. Otherwise, how could they brag about being the world's third military power? After a day and night of continuous fierce fighting, we finally conquered the enemy's position. We immediately consolidated the captured forward positions.
, while fighting, they built fortifications, dug trenches, and repaired Maoer Cave. However, two-thirds of this hilltop was still occupied by the Vietnamese army, and one third was occupied by several of our sentry posts. Maoer Cave refers to the trench.
, the side wall of the soil slope
Dig a hole where you can live. According to the standard requirements, the hole should be opened on a sunny slope with good soil quality, in a leeward place, and try to avoid shady slopes and wind outlets. The cat's ear hole has a very good cold-proof effect, and usually the temperature inside the hole can be 12 times higher than outside the hole.
~20℃. However, the situation on the battlefield is ever-changing. There is not so much formalization, and you are not allowed to do what is required. You can only adapt to local conditions to cover yourself and ensure effective killing of the enemy.
We fought hard for three days and three nights. Of course, we also suffered some casualties, but we finally captured the hilltop. The enemy abandoned the bodies of his accomplices and fled to another hilltop position. In order to prevent the enemy from counterattacking, we also occupied the cave where the enemy abandoned them.
.
Among them, the tunnel near the front is very deep and very narrow. When entering, you have to crawl down for more than ten meters and turn three or four corners to reach the end. Naturally, there is no ventilation in such a shape, and it can be said that it is very crowded inside.
All tastes -
-Stink, sour smell, sour sweat smell, musty smell, rancid smell, rat smell, kerosene smell, smoke smell, gunpowder smell, and a hint of fragrance from cooking, but for the recruits who have just entered, four or five days will not be enough.
I can't eat anything and I feel like vomiting just thinking about it.
Therefore, for the people in the cave, it was happiest to go out to perform tasks. At that time, I felt that Vietnamese monkeys were much cuter than cats with pierced ears. They had not seen the sun or breathed fresh air for many days.
Some are not only wet, but also have a lot of water, and some can be flooded up to the neck; some can only take more than ten hours for the water to recede, and there is no other choice but to soak in the water, and stay there for several or more than ten hours.
Even so, you cannot leave the cave and must hold on. During the confrontation with the enemy,
The soldiers squatted in the water, knelt in the water, and even slept in the water, with guns tied to their shoulders and radios on their heads. When they were sleepy, their heads drooped into the water, and they fell asleep in a daze. Suddenly they fell asleep again.
I was suddenly awakened by the water. When the water receded, my skin was white and there were layers of wrinkles all over my body.
Under such difficult conditions, we repelled countless enemy counterattacks. They also used the "guerrilla tactics" they learned from us very skillfully...
"Yes, now students actually hit teachers." Someone suddenly interrupted.
Ying Zhiming stopped him and said, "Don't talk too much, just listen."
"Uncle, how was fighting compared to your time? Is it exciting enough?" someone else asked.
Fu Liguo smiled and said: "How can I say this? There is no comparison. The guys who serve as soldiers now are easy to use, but in our time..."
"Come on, don't mention the past, let's listen to what Fu Min has to say now." Ying Zhiming interrupted Fu Liguo impatiently. Fu Liguo rolled his eyes at him and fell silent, turning around to smoke a cigarette.
Ying Zhiming pointed to the bowl and said, "Young man, please drink some water."
Fu Min smiled and said: "Okay, uncle, haha, it seems that you and my father have not changed much, and you two are still so strong."
Lu Chunji said in the outer room: "Two barking donkeys cannot be tied in one trough."
Wow - everyone burst out laughing. Fu Min picked up the bowl and just drank a few mouthfuls of water when he burst out laughing with a "poof", and everyone burst out laughing again.
Fu Min wiped his mouth and said: "Everyone, stop joking, I will tell you, there will be more exciting things later."
Ying Zhiming urged: "Talk about it, I like to hear about the war."
Fu Lanhua was so anxious in the outer room that she complained from the bottom of her heart: "Just stop talking, it's just a distraction."
Only Ying Zhiming said again: "Don't shout, everyone, continue to listen to Fu Min."
Looking at the atmosphere and posture, it looks like a "report of heroic deeds." Listen to Fu Min's sermon:
Another day later, the enemy wanted to retake this mountain highland. These monkeys were very cunning. They did not dare to move during the day and wanted to launch a sneak attack on us at night. How did they know that fighting in the dark is a tactic that our People's Liberation Army is the ancestor of?
Just as a grandson.
The enemy was discovered by our sentries as soon as they took action. They had about a platoon of troops. However, our troops on this hilltop were less than a platoon. The deputy platoon leader was our top leader. After we were put together, he ordered us
Wait for the enemy to come up and get close before attacking, catching him off guard and destroying the enemy's effective strength. Facts have proved that this trick is very effective.
The enemy was approaching step by step. When the leading Vietnamese army was only six or seven meters away from the entrance of the cave in front of us, we could hear him gasping for breath, so he couldn't speak or make any noise. This is the most challenging time. You don't know what to think.
What to do? We must be more prepared to prevent the enemy from coming up and stuffing grenades or explosive canisters into our holes, but we must not attack the enemy too early, otherwise the enemies behind will take the opportunity to run away.
It doesn't have the effect of total annihilation.
We were in the darkness of Maoerdong, but the enemy didn't know that they were completely exposed to our guns. When they were almost all up, they were still looking around and muttering in search of us.
Chapter completed!
