Chapter 119 Big Fish

"Kill!" The charge troops of our army, which were suppressed by the Vietnamese firepower, no longer had the threat of the Vietnamese army on the side, so they shouted and rushed towards the Vietnamese army on the front.

On the other hand, the Vietnamese army had fought well and could even be said to have gained the upper hand on the battlefield, but because of the collapse of the supply and marketing building, they lost the cover of the entire flank, and at the same time they also lost the advantage of attacking our army on both sides. The battle situation quickly changed.

However, the Vietnamese army is worthy of being a unit with decades of combat experience. Even in this case, it did not give up resistance and still used various fortifications to shoot balls at our army. But sometimes it is not enough to be brave on the battlefield. The fortifications built by the Vietnamese army are not enough to withstand the impact of the 59s in our army. Even if they had a first-class tank like T62, they were unable to show their due combat effectiveness because they failed to come out of the alley in time. After the first one was besieged by three tanks of our army and destroyed, the remaining one would never dare to come out again.

So our soldiers rushed and fought hard under the leadership of the tank. The tracks of the tank ruthlessly pressed over the trenches built by the Vietnamese army with sandbags. The parallel machine guns made a "da da da..." roar, turning the Vietnamese army behind the trenches into sieves. The tank guns made a loud "boom" sound from time to time, instantly shattering the enemy's machine gun positions. The 40 rocket launcher and 82 recoil-free gun shooters who had been following the tank also fired rockets and artillery shells at the enemy. The sound of the "boom" sounded, and the firepower points on the Vietnamese army could easily knock them out; not to mention other soldiers, the figures of the People's Liberation Army soldiers running everywhere, grenades and submachine guns, which only made the Vietnamese army have no power to fight back.

Soon the Vietnamese defense line collapsed. They used the cover of the houses on both sides of the street to fight and retreat slowly. At this time, I would not let them go. I simply gave the fifth and sixth companies to pursue the victory with the victory, and continued to use the old methods to cooperate with the tank troops on both wings.

Our army's battle against Vietnam seems to have become a model, but when there is a tough task, the tank troops and infantry in the center of the street will not be attacked, and if there is no tough task, they will rely on the holes of the fifth and sixth companies on both wings to break through the holes one by one. This method is obviously beyond the expectations of the Vietnamese army, so no suitable and effective method was thought of until then.

But I have to admit that they almost successfully blocked our offensive just now. If it weren't for the blown up supply and marketing building overwhelming a large area of ​​Vietnamese reinforcements, I think our army would have suffered heavy casualties here.

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but look at the location where the supply and marketing building fell, but except for a broken piece of cement and broken bricks, I couldn't see anything. Even the two tanks that originally appeared at that location disappeared.

"Battery Commander!" While I was commanding the soldiers to chase and fight back all the way behind the Vietnamese army, Li Zhifu returned from the front and said, "The municipal government is not far ahead. Should we slow down? The superior's order is..."

"What should I take it?" I interrupted Li Zhifu and said, "Call me immediately! Take it down and talk about it. I will be responsible for any problems!"

"Yes!" Li Zhifu responded, turned around and quickly entered the battlefield.

Although I don’t want to leave a "disobey order" again, I also feel that it makes sense for my superiors to let us slow down and wait for other troops to advance. After all, this battle is not a single unit of our troops, and the overall strategy is required when fighting. But our army is now like an arrow that takes off the string, and even if we want to, it can’t be taken back.

Besides, here is only one step away from the municipal government, and there is almost no difference between going forward and waiting here in overall strategy. So it would be better to just build it down as a stronghold. At least I know that as the Lang Son Municipal Government building should not be so shabby or a brick building...

Facts have proved that my decision was correct! And it was precisely because of my decision that we caught several big fish that came to the city government without rushing to retreat.

Our army advanced along the residential building. Although the Vietnamese army was already prepared for us at this time, they were helpless that they had to guard against the soldiers outside the window shooting at them. On the other hand, they were afraid that a large hole would be opened on the side wall at any time and a few smoke-filled grenades would be thrown into them. What made them even more depressed was that... they didn't even know where these wall holes would be opened...

So our army passed through the obstacles and cleaned up the houses one by one, and soon came to a wall with triangle glass on its top, so I knew that we were at the municipal government.

"Do it!" I waved at the soldiers, and a rocket launcher who had already prepared pulled the trigger. With the "boom", a large area of ​​the wall was blown down.

Without saying a word, I took the soldiers to enter the gap in the wall with the smoke from the rocket launcher...

A scream of screams, the scene before us, was stunned - the walls were full of civilians staring at us with horror eyes, mostly elderly people and children, and some women. This is not surprising. Most of the young and strong men in Vietnam have entered the army and joined the army, and women also acted as laundry classes or coolies in the army, so civilians in Vietnam are basically equal to elderly people, women and children.

Look at the tents and thatched houses next to them, and it is obvious that they have lived here for a while. This is entirely because our army occupied the highlands outside Lang Son as quickly as possible as soon as we started fighting, which made a considerable number of people in Lang Son not have time to withdraw from here.

I don’t know what the Vietnamese military is thinking, and it will actually concentrate the people in the municipal government. Don’t they know that the municipal government is a must-attack place for our army? This can almost be said to be the symbol of our army to capture Lang Son, and it can also partially destroy the command center of Lang Son, so it has great significance both in military and political terms.

But I think this is probably a trick of using civilians as shields by the Vietnamese military! Because only by resettling these civilians here will our army not dare to use long-range artillery to flatten the municipal government directly...

Seeing this scene, the soldiers couldn't help but turn their eyes to me, not knowing what to do next.

To be honest, I was also in a dilemma at this time. Will I shoot? There may be foreign journalists in the municipal government, and more importantly, I am a soldier, not a murderer. Don’t shoot? The Vietnamese army is likely to be mixed with these civilians, and we just walk in like this and it is very likely that we will fall into a trap carefully arranged by the enemy.

However, just as I was hesitating, the Vietnamese troops who flashed out of the civilians quickly solved my problem.

I don’t know if the Vietnamese soldiers were stupid or unhappy. Maybe they were just militias who maintained civilian order. But no matter who they were, since they had already pointed their guns at us, there was no reason for me to sit and wait for death. So I raised my rifle and knocked the Vietnamese soldiers with ak47 to the ground.

As soon as the gunshots sounded, the Vietnamese people were immediately in chaos. The crowd rushed towards the municipal government building like a tide. The tents were pushed down, pots and pans were beaten all over the ground, and there were even garbage, feces, etc., which made the square smell stinking. But at this time we didn't care about so many. We raised our rifles and rushed towards the government building closely following the people behind us...

This is our best opportunity. With the Vietnamese people standing in front of us, we can take down this government building without any effort. I think those Vietnamese troops would never have thought that the people who have always been used as shields have now become our weapons.

But I soon discovered how ridiculous my thoughts were, because the Vietnamese army of the municipal government had already fired...

"Dadada..." A dense burst of bullets poured out, and the people running in front of us fell down in pieces like harvested rice. The people cried and shouted in a mess. Staying there was neither going to retreat nor retreat. I think they were afraid that until they died, their army would shoot at them cruelly.

We could not have imagined that the soldiers were stunned. But what we thought was impossible happened in front of us.

"Beast!" I couldn't help but curse. At this time, I hoped that foreign journalists would be present to take pictures of the despicable scene of the Vietnamese army. But at the same time, I also knew that even if foreign journalists were present, it would be useless. The Vietnamese Japanese were already crazy and they could do anything. They could kill foreign journalists and then blame our army, and even publicize in the media about how our army massacred their people...

This once again made me realize that there is no conscience in military and political terms. Everything is to defeat the opponent. As for public opinion and people's hearts, as long as you hold the gun in your hand and use some tricks, you can quickly calm down. The so-called success, king, defeat, and bandits are not the same.

"Go!" While the soldiers were staring at this terrible scene in amazement, I gritted my teeth and ordered: "Catch the city government and kill all the animals!"

"Yes!" the soldiers responded, and immediately dispersed and aimed their weapons at the building.

But the problem is that those civilians are in front of us, and it is difficult for the soldiers to target the Vietnamese army through them.

"Let's go! Lying down..." A soldier rushed up and shouted at the people while pushing the people to the ground. But before he could push a few people down, a row of bullets suddenly flew over and hit him.

"Wang Zhanguo!" I heard the screams of the soldiers behind me, as if I wanted to pull him back with the screams, but the cute soldier slowly knelt down in front of us, and then fell to the ground without any anger.

"Damn the Japanese! I'm fighting with you!" I heard the angry screams of the soldiers behind me, and then I didn't need my order at all. The soldiers pulled the trigger and fired bullets in front.

Of course, there are also Vietnamese people among us who fall under the bullet. As the saying goes, the city gate is lost and the fish will be affected. On this battlefield where you die or I live, no one can guarantee the safety of the people. What's more... our army was basically mixed with the people at this time, so most of the casualties of the people were caused by the Vietnamese army.

Is this? The grenades thrown at us, the rockets flying towards our army, and the rows of bullets that don’t have eyes... the ak47 has no accuracy at all, but wins by the rain of bullets, so the Vietnamese army will fight like this, which only means that they don’t care about the lives and deaths of the people at all.

When Battalion Commander Wu's tank troops broke through the city wall and entered the battlefield, they were also stunned by what they saw. Until I ordered them to open fire on the enemy in the building, they reacted and shot the enemy with shells and anti-aircraft machine guns. In an instant, the building was beaten to pieces of stone powder flying around and screaming.

With the support of tanks, our army's firepower soon gained the upper hand, so the soldiers yelled and rushed into the city government building with rifles.

There is no need to worry about what happened next. Outside the building, there are heavy weapons suppression of our army tanks, and in the building, there are my angry fifth company soldiers' attacks with grenades and submachine guns. It is difficult for the Japanese to die.

So I did not follow the soldiers in, but looked at the bodies of the people who fell all over the ground and the blood flowing everywhere with great emotion. The people who had been beaten to death were nothing. I have seen many corpses, but those surviving people... can also be said to be the elderly and children. Some were frightened and stared at me with a pair of frightened eyes, while others were staring at the corpses on the ground dumbfoundedly. Some were also injured and even wailed and cried on the ground. This made me want to stay away from all this and go as far as possible!

But after taking a deep breath, I finally pressed the impulse. The reason is very simple. I am the commander of this army and I must not just leave.

When I walked into the city building with the guards, gunfire and explosions gradually became sparse. This also indicates that the battle will soon end.

The government building was messy, with blown doors and windows, corpses and bullet holes everywhere, documents were scattered all over the ground, and the white paper was often sprayed with bright red blood, which was shocking to see.

At this time, Li Zhifu and several soldiers took the prisoners down. I couldn't help but look at Li Zhifu in confusion. What I didn't understand was that he would still leave a living under such circumstances.

Li Zhifu also understood what I meant and came up to report: "Battorney General, I look a little strange to the Yue Japanese with a beard. He can speak fluent Chinese, so I want to take it down for you to see! If you think it's useless, I'll take them with you..."

I understand the meaning of bringing it up, needless to say. However, when I heard that the Japanese invaders could speak fluent Chinese, I became a little interested.

Many Vietnamese Japanese can speak Chinese. When our country and Vietnam were still in a "comrades and brothers" relationship, the Vietnamese army had communicated with our army a lot. But most Vietnamese soldiers only learned some superficial learning. If they could reach the level of "fluency", then I think there are only two possibilities - either they are translators or they have been in China for a long time.

If it is a translator, then it goes without saying that I will naturally ask Li Zhifu to "take" people. However, if I have been in China for a long time, it is very likely that I have studied at the China National University... This means that this guy has some background. It is precisely because of this that Li Zhifu brought these people down for me to "see".

I looked up and down at the Yue Japanese with a beard and found that although this guy was wearing a military uniform of an ordinary soldier, he did not fit, and his wrists were even a lot shorter. So I guessed that this guy should be an official and would not be wrong.

"What's your name?" I asked casually.

"Comrade! My name is Li Ji!" He nodded and smiled, "I know that the People's Liberation Army treats prisoners preferentially, so I surrender. I will explain the problem well!"

Li Zhifu said it well. His Chinese language is indeed fluent, and he also knows that "explaining the problem" with Chinese characteristics, and it seems that a big fish cannot escape.

"What is your military rank?" I continued to ask.

"I am a translator!" Li Ji replied: "Look...that's why I speak so well in Chinese, right?"

I squinted my eyes, and it was obvious that what this guy said was not the answer I wanted.

But I didn't care, so I raised my head to Li Zhifu and said, "You can take them with me!"

"Yes!" Li Zhifu responded, pushing the Vietnamese soldiers to walk upstairs.

Li Ji's face turned pale and he said helplessly like a wilted cabbage: "Comrade! I am the colonel leader of the 42nd Regiment. Please treat the prisoners with preferential treatment!"

It turned out to be a regiment commander, and I couldn't help but feel happy. At the same time, I thought that the Japanese soldiers from the Vietnamese were brave, but these officials were not very good! But this seems not surprising. Vietnam was the first country in the era of military affairs, and officials had many privileges. Often, these high-level officials who were used to being arrogant and enjoying would cherish their lives the more they would. In other words, the more they were afraid of death...

"Battery Commander!" At this time, the correspondent hurriedly ran up with a walkie-talkie on his back, handed the microphone over and whispered: "It's Commander Wang, I seem a little unhappy!"

"What are you doing?" As soon as I took the microphone, I heard Commander Wang blame him on the other end: "Why don't you listen to the order? Comrade Cui Wei, you can play well, but you can't be so unorganized and disciplined..."

"Teacher Commander!" I glanced at Li Ji, interrupted Commander Wang and said, "We have captured a regiment commander, who said he was the commander of the 42nd Regiment, and there are still a few..."

I raised my head to Li Ji with an inquiring gaze. Li Ji smiled bitterly and looked at the people around him, and replied: "Chief of Staff!"

"There are still several chiefs of staff!" I said to the microphone.

"What? Captured a regiment commander?" Commander Wang was so angry that he heard me say this, and immediately ordered: "Take them back immediately!"

After pausing, he added: "We must ensure their safety!"
