Movie Variety Show: Starting from a New World

Chapter 641: Big Pit (Updated 5 times yesterday, additional update)

With the arrival of the two special operations battalions at the front line, preparations for the attack on Zheyin Mountain officially began.

The main task of the two special forces brigades was to find out all the defense points and firepower points of the Vietnamese army on the opposite side, and to capture a few prisoners to gather information about the enemy.

As for why two teams acted together, the main reason was that Zheyin Mountain was not a single mountain, but a combination of several peaks.

The reconnaissance mission really needs to be completed as soon as possible, and only by working together can the two teams conduct a detailed investigation.

The total number of people in Jinling's special operations brigade is only more than 180. Of course, these are combat personnel, and logistics personnel are not included.

Dong Yun's plan was to divide the entire brigade into five independent combat units, each of which would conduct reconnaissance on the peaks one to five assigned to them.

Dong Yun led a team of his own, and the other officers each led a team. Wei Lai led the squadron led by He Zhijun.

"Old He, don't be impulsive after you go up. Our main mission this time is reconnaissance. The one attacking is the 11th Army." Wei Lai said to He Zhijun while sorting out the equipment.

"I say, Tugou, why do you become so fussy even though you became the chief of staff? If it weren't for taking the feelings of those troops into consideration, our battalion would be able to wipe out all the Vietnamese troops on the opposite side!" He Zhijun complained to Wei Lai with a helpless look on his face.

"Please stop! I heard that the reason we come here to fight is, on the one hand, to recover the territory occupied by the enemy. On the other hand, it is to take over this place and then continue to bleed the enemy here!" Wei Lai said with a smirk.

"You mean this place will be a grinding mill, constantly consuming the enemy's combat effectiveness?" He Zhijun suddenly became alert.

"That's right! Our country's development requires a sufficiently safe external environment. And look at the posture of the Vietnamese army opposite, do they look like they can let us develop with peace of mind? So we must continue to educate them! Make back the 20 billion!" Wei Lai said with a smile on his face, looking at the dark mountains in the distance.

"Great, this way we can also train our troops. After all, apart from us, many troops haven't experienced actual combat for a long time, and they always need some soldiers with actual combat experience as backbones!" He Zhijun also smiled. Who doesn't want to live in a strong country?

Soon, night fell, and Wei Lai followed He Zhijun and led the team to set off.

The entire Zheyin Mountain was covered in minefields and hidden firing points laid by the Vietnamese army, which were the targets that Wei Lai and his team should investigate.

Wei Lai and the entire team dispersed and began to climb up the mountain, clearing the mines on the road ahead while climbing.

"The little wolf cub is really a piece of shit, always doing these insidious things!" Just when everyone was cautiously exploring the way with bayonets, a burst of complaints rang out.

Wei Lai instantly lay on the ground. After waiting for a few minutes, he found that there was no gunfire coming from the top of the mountain. Then he looked towards the place where the sound came from.

Even though the sound was small and couldn't reach the top of the mountain, what if it happened? So the guy who made the sound must be punished.

Wei Lai took a closer look and saw that it was Fan Tianlei, who had just joined the special operations team. He Weidong, who was standing next to him, covered his mouth, showing his big white teeth and nodding continuously.

"Go back if you make another sound! You're embarrassing yourself!" Before Wei could say anything, He Zhijun growled first.

Everyone could hear the anger in He Zhijun's tone. This was just a short time after they set out. If they had done something like this halfway up the mountain, the Vietnamese troops at the top would have probably noticed.

The Vietnamese army at this time is not the same as it was when the war just started two years ago. They are now very wary of us. At the slightest sign of trouble, they will directly open fire with heavy machine guns, regardless of whether it will waste bullets or not, for fear that we will attack them.

He Weidong could only nod helplessly. After all, Fan Tianlei was his comrade-in-arms who had been with him all the way from the recruit company. He didn't expect that this guy would complain at this time.

Fan Tianlei knew he was wrong. How could he have spoken out his true feelings unconsciously? Fortunately, the noise was very small, and only a few people around could hear it. Otherwise, the Vietnamese army would be suspicious and fire a few rounds at them, which would cause great losses.

For the rest of the journey, Fan Tianlei kept his lips tightly shut and dared not make any sound. All the mines that were detected were marked with a mark that only we could see and could not see from the top of the mountain.

The mines that can be removed are left in place after the fuses are cut or the firing mechanism is destroyed.

After a night of hard fighting, Wei Lai and his men had only advanced less than 150 meters. Now that it was daybreak, they could only rest where they were, secretly eating some dry food and drinking some water.

They were able to drink water thanks to the water bag invented by Zhao Cheng. They carried it on their backs, with a tube connected to the inside of their helmets. There was a small spout at the mouth that they could bite to drink water. If they had carried a canteen like ordinary troops, they probably wouldn't dare to drink water all day long. Drinking water from a canteen would make too much of a movement and easily expose their target.

After lurking for a whole day, Wei Lai and his men continued to climb slowly to the top of the mountain at night. At an altitude of about 200 meters from the foot of the mountain, Wei Lai discovered a bunker with a tunnel leading to the back of the mountain.

There were three Vietnamese soldiers in the bunker, all dozing off. As for why they weren't on guard? Their mission was to launch a surprise machine-gun attack from the rear after our troops reached the top of the mountain, not to resist our attack. So, even though they were in the bunker, they didn't need to be on guard.

Wei Lai took out a small light green flag and stuck it on the back of the bunker. He had observed that this bunker had no door on this hillside, only a shooting hole pointing to the top of the mountain.

By inserting it on the back, we don't have to worry about being seen by the top of the mountain, and it can also indicate the location of our army. After the attack begins, a 152 artillery shell can solve the problem.

However, Wei Lai and his men had no choice but to bypass the bunker's firing range and continue climbing to the top of the mountain from other places. As for the mines within the firing range, they could only use artillery shells to clear the way.

In this way, after three days and four nights of hard work, Wei Lai and his team finally climbed to the top of the mountain and could carefully observe the Vietnamese positions on the entire top of the mountain.

The feeling that the enemy was walking around right above his head almost made Fan Tianlei scream out loud again. Fortunately, He Weidong had observed him a long time ago and stopped Fan Tianlei from doing anything stupid in time.

However, when He Weidong looked up, he only saw the stern eyes of the squadron leader and the chief of staff. He Weidong could only smile bitterly, thinking that his comrade might have to leave the special operations brigade.
