Chapter 48 Cold Gun Force
After the plan was decided, I immediately returned to the 180th Division to briefly explain the situation to Commander Pang.
"This idea is good!" Commander Pang listened and nodded in agreement and said, "If the target was our army's arsenal, the puppet army agents would definitely send more people. Although they could not catch them all in one place, they could still seriously damage their vitality. Moreover, we can also train new troops to lurk in battle, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone!"
"It's not just this!" Jiang Chunzeng, who was listening on the side, added: "Let's use fake targets to attract the enemy into the trap, and do such a thing a few more times in the future! Those puppet military agents will be difficult to distinguish between true and false, and then maybe they will also treat the real target as a trap!"
"It makes sense!" Commander Pang nodded and laughed.
"But there is one thing..." Then Commander Pang frowned again: "We must do a good job of confidentiality in this matter. There are enemy spies in our troops. If you are not careful, it is very likely that the puppet army agents will know our plan. Then we will be in vain!"
"Um!" I couldn't help frowning when I heard this. I really didn't expect this. Since I entered North Korea for war, I have always treated my comrades in the army with confidence. In fact, when the volunteer army first entered North Korea, there was basically no infiltration of puppet military spies. At that time, even a whole army lurked in the forest and the enemy could not find it. But now, with more and more new recruits joining, more and more spies sneaking into our army. Although this is a normal thing, I am still a little uncomfortable.
"So this matter..." After thinking for a while, Commander Pang added: "This matter is not suitable for our division's cold gun troops! One very important reason is that the number of cold gun troops is not large, and most of them are now confronting the US military on the front line. Once they are all removed, the US military troops on the front line will definitely be aware of it. Doing this will easily attract the attention of internal spies in our army. Another thing is that it is said that it is difficult to prevent thieves from defending against each other. The mobilization of cold gun troops in our army is difficult to escape the eyes of internal spies. This risk is too great."
"That's right!" I nodded in agreement and said hesitantly: "Then what Commander Pang means..."
"Transfer the cold gun unit you have in the 77th Division!" Commander Pang said with a smile: "It's impolite to come but not to go. When the 77th Division is in trouble, we sent troops without saying a word. Now we have difficulties. I think Commander Wang won't be so unkind! Besides, that cold gun unit is still trained by you!"
"Teacher Pang was joking!" I knew that Commander Pang was joking, so I didn't take it seriously and nodded in favor: "We can use the reason of imparting experience to other troops to send experience to other troops to send cold gun troops to the 77th Division. This way, even if it attracts the attention of the puppet army spies, I will not take it seriously. As long as Commander Wang is instructed to do a good job of confidentiality, I think the puppet army agents will not associate the 77th Division's cold gun troops with our army's ammunition depot."
"Yeah! That's it!" Commander Pang grabbed the phone without saying a word, but after thinking about it, he put the phone back, stood up and walked towards the radio room next door.
I understand the profound meaning of Commander Pang's actions. The 77th station is not far from our 180th Division, and there is a telephone connection between each other. However, when the puppet army agents are so rampant, if the telephone line is not broken, then it will be under the surveillance of the puppet army agents.
Speaking of which, the monitoring of such single-line phones in this era is very simple. When I was a child, I often saw such scenes in movies. Our army was responsible for monitoring the enemy's phone line. As long as we insert a conductive needle into the enemy's phone line, we can pick up the microphone and hear what the people inside say. Our army can use this method to monitor the enemy's phone number, and the enemy can do the same.
"It's done!" After a while, Commander Pang walked back happily: "The cold gun troops of the 77th Division will arrive tonight! Commander Wang also said! It turns out that I am using your long line to hang the big fish! Use your Cui Wei bait to hang away the cold gun troops of their entire division!"
With a coaxing sound, all the soldiers in the tunnel laughed out loud.

The wind is cold and the snow is flying. Every night in North Korea is so cold, which also makes me understand why the Korean people always stay at home in winter nights. They are so poor that they do not have any modern means of transportation, so going out on such a cold night has no meaning except to be unable to live with their own lives.
But I can't imagine that in such a cold climate, our cold gun unit was lurking in the snow. When I thought of this, I couldn't help but shivered. But what can I do? The plan for this operation was all formulated by me, not to mention that the cold gun unit of the 77th Division was once my subordinate.
Hiding in the jeep, he stomped his feet, which were already numb from his cold, and couldn't help but take out a cigarette from his arms and smoked it with the driver Xiao Wang.
Xiao Wang is the driver assigned to me by Commander Pang. Since the 538th Regiment completed the mission in the Western Front People's Army, Xiao Wang has not driven the jeep back due to the flood and the US military's bombing of our supply line. When he came back, we had already gone to Wusheng Mountain to carry out the mission. Given that I did not need a jeep for the mission in Fivesheng Mountain, Commander Pang did not ask Xiao Wang to follow him, and temporarily transferred Xiao Wang and his jeep to the division headquarters for use. Now that I am back, Commander Pang arranged him for me without saying a word.
It is said that it is convenient to use a jeep. This not only saves me from the pain of walking in the snow, but also saves me a lot of time. Otherwise, I would frequently walk around between the 180th Division and the 118th Division during this period, which will not only make me unable to bear it, but will also increase many unnecessary dangers.
Seeing that I was so cold that I stomped my feet, Xiao Wang started the car understandingly, letting the engine idling to bring some heat to the Jeep.
"Xiao Wang!" Seeing this, I couldn't help but stop it and said, "It's better to turn the engine! It's not easy for the soldiers of the logistics army to transport some gasoline!"
"Yes!" Xiao Wang responded and turned off the engine immediately.
If I had just entered North Korea, I thought I would use the engine to warm myself without hesitation, but now I can't do it. I am not really a noble mind or high ideological awareness. The reason why I don't do this is because I know very clearly that every bit of gasoline we burn now is exchanged for blood from the soldiers of the logistics army. When I think that I was using the blood of my comrades to keep warm, the guilt in my heart will make me feel uncomfortable. I think the thoughts of other cadres in the Volunteer Army are similar to mine!
While smoking a cigarette, chatting with Xiao Wang. When talking about the method Kobayashi used to hide from the planes that sent us back, he realized that not only Kobayashi had the same skills, but almost all volunteers would be told about these methods when they walked on the transportation line. However, most of the car soldiers used that trick when they had no choice. Few people used the methods of hiding from the planes like Kobayashi.
But when I asked Xiao Wang casually if he could do this trick, Xiao Wang just smiled and replied calmly: "When we encounter the American devils' plane one day, you will know!"
I was stunned when I heard this. Then I remembered the racing between Xiao Wang and the People's Army Jeep on the Western Front. I thought to myself that Xiao Wang was not an easy-to-dispute person!
When I was smoking the third cigarette, the sound of the car motor came from the road. I was about to open the car door, but I was stopped by Zhang Mingxue and Xu Yongwei who were sitting behind me.
"Captain!" Before getting off the car, Zhang Mingxue told me: "Let's get off the car first to see the situation. If there is anything wrong, don't wait for us. You drive first, let's cover it!"
As I said that, I didn't allow me to object, jumped out of the car and slammed the door and closed it. I couldn't help but curse in my heart. The wings of these two little guys also grew hard, and they even taught me how to do it...
But even though I think about it, I still appreciate them. As time goes by, these two little guys are becoming more and more competent in their guards. Thinking about this, they usually learn from other guards!
As the roar of the car became louder and louder, several unsightly lights shot from the other end of the road, with a total of three cars. Xiao Wang quickly turned on the headlights and sent a long and three short light signal to the opposite side. Seeing this, the car on the opposite side stopped quickly and sent a short and three long signal to us.
This is a secret code we made with Commander Wang in advance. In order to prevent the puppet army agents from getting away with it, we made a special agreement on different signals from both sides.
Seeing that the signal was exactly the same, the three cars slowly drove towards us. What surprised me was that when the three cars approached, I found that the bodies of the cars were covered with white cloth, and some areas where the white cloth could not be covered with white cloth were painted by the soldiers. Seeing this, I couldn't help but praise them secretly. It was not in vain that these soldiers had taught them to disguise. Now they all know to use the disguise on cars.
With a "squeak!", the car drove to my jeep and stopped again. Zhang Mingxue and Xu Yongwei couldn't help but greet him, said a few words to the person in the passenger cab, and then ran back soon and said to me: "The commander of the regiment, it is the staff officer of Wang Yuehan, everything is normal!"
"Yeah!" I nodded and ordered: "Let them follow us!"
"Yes!" Zhang Mingxue responded softly and ran back to convey my orders soon.
After Zhang Mingxue and Xu Yongwei climbed onto the jeep again, Xiao Wang dropped the jeep and drove towards the 118th Division headquarters.
This is a plan we have formulated in advance. In order to do a confidentiality work, unless we get off the car and fight back when we encounter an enemy attack, all the soldiers of the cold gun troops will not be allowed to get off the car, so as not to be recognized by puppet military agents who may be hidden in the dark. As for me, I directly pulled people to the 118th Division's garrison, because the fewer people knew about this, the better. Therefore, this cold gun troops were called the 180th Division, but in fact they did not even go to the 180th Division's garrison. In fact, we did not even go to the 118th Division's garrison, because Commander Chu had already prepared a evacuation tunnel for us to use outside the garrison.
The jeep was driving on the bumpy road, swaying left and right with me along with the car body. I couldn't help but look at the car following behind from the rearview mirror outside the car window, and I couldn't help but think of the lurking days of fighting with the soldiers. I sighed inwardly. This world was really unexpected. I thought I didn't know when I would meet again after the last time I parted. I didn't expect that I could fight with them again so soon.
Several times I wanted to jump out of the jeep and climb onto the car behind to greet these old comrades, but I finally endured it. This is the difficulty of being a regiment commander. If you become a regiment commander and become a cadre, you are the example of the soldiers and the role models of the soldiers. You can no longer do things as casually as a little warrior.
The tunnel arranged for us by the 118th Division was not far away. After more than ten minutes, the convoy drove into a valley. On both sides of the valley, we could clearly feel that many volunteer soldiers were hiding in the dark to guard them. We used the headlights to call them a secret code, and then drove in unimpededly. Then the convoy turned a corner with the path and stopped in front of a huge rock.
Xu Yongwei and Zhang Mingxue got out of the car and observed for a while. After confirming that there was no situation, they opened the car door for me.
I gestured to the three cars behind me, and with a whistle, all of them were covered in white camouflage, and all the soldiers carrying backpacks jumped off the car as if they were flying, and then lined up next to the car.
I didn't say much, nodded at them and took them to the rocks next to the road. The tunnel entrance was set under the rocks, and the tunnel entrance was set here because even if the puppet army agents climbed up the high ground on both sides and looked down, they could not find this hidden tunnel entrance, unless they were standing in front of the tunnel.
"Captain Cui! Why are you?"
"Captain Cui! Are you taking us out of the mission again?"
...
As soon as I walked into the tunnel, the soldiers couldn't wait to speed up and follow. Listening to their words, looking at their faces with excitement and surprise. Only then did I realize that Commander Wang did not tell them anything about this operation, including that they came and were commanded by me!
No wonder they just sat in the car so calmly and didn't get out...
"Hello, comrades!" I didn't answer their words, shook hands with the soldiers around me, and shouted to the soldiers: "I didn't expect to meet so soon. I thought that everyone would come with their children when they met!"
With a coaxing sound, the soldiers all laughed, and the atmosphere in the tunnel became relaxed and happy.
He led the soldiers to the depths of the tunnel. With the dim light of the pine oil lamp, Commander Chu had already been waiting for us with more than a dozen soldiers. As soon as he saw us in, he immediately brought the soldiers to meet him and said, "Comrades, welcome you!"
"This is my old regiment commander." I introduced to the soldiers: "Captain Chu Chuanyu, the 353rd Regiment of the 118th Division of the 40th Army, is the commander of this operation!"
"Hello, Commander!" Hearing this, the soldiers saluted Captain Chu at the same time.
"Hello comrades!" Commander Chu looked at the soldiers of the Cold Gun Army and found that even in this situation, they still maintained a neat formation, and their whole bodies were covered with disguise and even the guns were covered with white cloth. He looked majestic. He couldn't help but nodded in approval and said to the soldiers: "Comrades, I have heard of your reputation for a long time, and you also know that you have made a lot of contributions to the Cold Gun battlefield. However, there is a saying that hearing is false and seeing is true, and I, Chu Chuanyu, are not someone who will be convinced by your reputation, but I still believe that you have strong combat power and can be competent for this mission! Do you know why?"
The soldiers couldn't help but wonder, even I couldn't guess what Captain Chu said.
Looking at us with confusion, Captain Chu pointed at me and smiled, "That's because I later learned that you were trained by this kid! At that time, I was thinking, good guy, it's enough for our group to have this kid at that time. Now there are so many people coming at once, so the Japanese are still in trouble!"
With a coaxing sound, all the soldiers laughed, including those soldiers who came to learn their experience brought by Captain Chu. I couldn't help but smile. I didn't expect that it was all at this time, and Commander Chu didn't forget to joke with me. I have been fighting with Captain Chu for so long, and it's rare to see him make a few jokes. Maybe he is in a good mood now!
"Come on..." After a while, Captain Chu pointed to Hu Zi and the others behind him and said, "I will introduce my soldiers to you first. They all want to learn combat experience with you. Don't give me face. Just take action if you should beat and scold me!"
The soldiers were amused by Captain Chu's words again.
"Standing at attention!" After the soldiers laughed for a while, my order calmed the soldiers, and then ordered the soldiers: "Stay rest today and act tomorrow night. During this day, comrades will be free to match and teach the new comrades basic disguise and lurking methods!"
"Yes!" The soldiers responded, and soon, under the introduction of Captain Chu and others, they got into a relationship with Hu Zi and the others. Some soldiers even had family conversations with Hu Zi and the others.
Chapter completed!
