Chapter Ninety-Six: Change
Already having a way to deal with the huge threat of artillery on the opposite side, the commander of the 2nd reconnaissance company decided to launch a military operation as soon as possible.
Although there are no friendly falcons in the sky now, their own falcons cannot contact the reconnaissance company that should be assembled here.
However, time waits for no one.
The General Command has already issued an order for them to hold off the enemy forces together with their allies for a day.
Although they had already routed the enemy's forward battalion along the way when they came, and let the frightened enemy stay on the road and wait for the so-called "follow-up surrender troops", which was considered to be a struggle for their own side for a while, they could not ensure that the enemy's main force would notice that something was wrong.
According to intelligence, the enemy has absolutely no fighting spirit, and if he realizes that something is wrong, he will definitely retreat.
If more than 30,000 enemy troops rushed over together, in this open place where there was no natural danger, let alone a day's resistance, I am afraid that in less than ten minutes, more than 50 people in a company would be completely torn to pieces.
Therefore, the company commander decided that since he could not find friendly troops, he would not wait, occupy the planned blocking position "Tower Hill" as soon as possible, and then adjust and strengthen the fortifications on the position to deal with the enemy forces that may come at any time.
It was not enough to have a preliminary plan of action, and in the following time, several officers seized the time to perfect this battle plan and began to make various plans.
However, before the Second Reconnaissance Company could complete their mobilization, there was a new change on the other side.
A soldier on guard on the perimeter stepped forward and stood up and saluted," the report said. ”
"What's the matter?"
The soldier walked up to the company commander and whispered, "Report to the company commander, an officer came outside, saying that the company sent to contact him." We all felt very weird and didn't dare to let people in without permission, so we came to ask for instructions, what should we do? ”
The company commander looked a little hesitant, originally thinking that the first company would not be able to catch up with the scheduled assembly time, and was ready to go it alone. At this time, there was actually an officer from a company?
Why don't you send someone instead of a falcon to deliver a message? Did something happen in a row?
Moreover, under the same battalion establishment, it is also a battalion that is not satisfied with the formation, and the soldiers under his own command basically know all the officers, and now they say that they don't know what to do, that is to say, the person who came is an officer they don't know?
It's really weird, especially in the context of war, it's particularly strange.
Still, just in case, you should have someone come over.
Thinking of this, the company commander ordered softly, "Carefully check the other party's documents, send a soldier to closely monitor the other party, and then bring people over." ”
"Yes."
After a while, an officer dressed in the same dark yellow training uniform of the Royal Army as everyone in the Second Reconnaissance Company, led by a heavily armed sergeant veteran, trotted to the place where the officers of the Second Company were.
Wang Chuankui, a staff officer of the 1st Battalion and 1st Company of the 16th Regiment, was assigned by the company commander to come and pay tribute to Comrade Major. ”
Everyone looked up, it was a soldier they didn't know, and they were all a little curious when they heard the identity of the other party.
After not coming to the meeting at the specified time and place, everyone had all kinds of speculations about this, and they were also worried in their hearts, but now that the other party has sent someone to come, it would be better to know that there is nothing big about it by looking at the other party's dress.
The company commander's eyes looked at the other party's collar badge and returned the salute, but he did not speak.
Instead, he swept his eyes over the vigilant soldier, and the soldier reported loudly, "Report to the sir, this officer's identity has been verified and confirmed. ”
After receiving an affirmative reply from his own soldiers, the company commander said, "Hello Lieutenant Wang, where is your company now?" When will you be able to come here? ”
Wang Chuankui took two steps forward and said, "Major, our company is not going to come to meet him. ”
"Huh?" The company commander put down the pencil in his hand and asked solemnly, "What do you mean by not preparing to come to the meeting?" ”
Deputy Hu Lian also frowned: "You don't want to disobey the orders of your superiors, do you?" As he spoke, his hand reached for the pistol he was wearing.
The soldier who arrived with Wang Chuankui stood behind him, and the rifle had been unsafed, but in order to prevent the rifle bullet from penetrating too much and threatening the lives of his own officers, the soldier took two steps to the side and aimed at Hu Chuankui from the side and rear.
As long as the company commander gives an order, the young man in front of him who looks delicate-looking will probably die on the spot.
The corner of Wang Chuankui's eyes swept the movement on his side, and the slight movement of his ears also clearly expressed that he had heard the sound of the rifle safety opening.
However, he still explained unhurriedly, "The commander misunderstood, we did not have the courage to disobey the orders of the general headquarters, on the contrary, we made this decision after officially following the orders of our superiors. ”
The company commander stared into his eyes, "Tell me, I want to know what you want to do." ”
Wang Chuankui smiled, ignoring the muzzle of the rifle behind him, and said, "The commander should know that originally, there were more than 6 infantry battalions to carry out this blocking mission. ”
The company commander nodded, "Yes, I know, but it is precisely because of the change of plan that our brothers from the 1601st Battalion, which is closest to the enemy and the most elite, have been transferred to fight the front station." ”
"Yes, the enemy has more than 30,000 people, and the total number of 6 full infantry battalions that fight is about less than 5,000 people, plus 8,000 people from 10 full infantry battalions in the frontal assault, relying on the advantage of firepower, can ensure the destruction of this wave of enemies with low battle damage.
However, now because of the change of plan, the only one to go into battle is our 1601st Battalion, a reconnaissance battalion with a serious shortage of personnel, and the total number of people in the battalion is less than 150 people.
With such a few people, let alone a blockade, I am afraid that even the enemy army in front of him will not be able to occupy the camp where the enemy has hoarded logistics and baggage. The General Command, this is difficult for the strongman. ”
The company commander unceremoniously interrupted the other party's words, "Lieutenant Wang, pay attention to your identity, you are a soldier of the Royal Army, please don't discredit your company."
I hope that your next words will not discredit our glorious army that was born in a bloody battle. ”
As he spoke, this time even the commander of the second company himself touched his leather revolver holster.
The company commander already had some doubts in his heart, since there was no problem with the documents, then whether this person had become a traitor after being captured by the enemy, and was now ordered by the enemy to be a lobbyist.
Unexpectedly, this Lieutenant Wang was still indifferent, "Comrade Major, don't worry, I'm or"
However, he didn't finish his words, the company commander looked at the other party as if he was holding the victory, and then thought about the other party for a long time, and he didn't talk about the topic, so he felt even more wrong.
Burst into a shout, "You shut up for me." ”
Then he turned to Deputy Hu Lian and ordered, "This guy is very abnormal, I suspect that the first company may have encountered an accident, now immediately go and expand the warning area, and be careful of the enemy's sneak attack." ”
Then he sent the falcon trainer and asked him to arrange for the falcon to scout the surroundings more carefully.
