Chapter 804: Two Worlds
After several days of trekking, Li Yong and his soldiers finally arrived at the border city of Andong and saw the famous Yalu River Bridge......
The swarm of anti-aircraft gun positions surprised the soldiers, who thought that the position they had made for an iron bridge was a little too big.
It makes sense for the fighters to think so, in the entire Northwest Field Army, the independent brigade is enough for cattle! However, the independent brigade did not even have a single anti-aircraft gun, and only the dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns relied on for air defense, but it was different here, the artillery barrels on the anti-aircraft artillery positions were densely packed, and the strength of the four fields was very surprising.
Li Yong thought to himself, what is this, no matter how much antiaircraft artillery is, it can only be a defensive force, it can only hold its position, and it cannot take the initiative to attack, it is a passive weapon, and before the Volunteer Air Force was not put into battle, the Yalu River Iron Bridge was spent in the process of being bombed and repaired, repaired and bombed.
It is dangerous to drive on the bridge, the danger comes from the sky that there is no way to master, who knows when the American planes will come to lay eggs, so it only took a few minutes to get the convoy from the big iron bridge to guò, and after crossing the bridge, they set foot on the territory of North Korea, and the troops were considered to have gone abroad.
I went abroad, I really went abroad, and the feeling of going abroad is definitely different from being at home, I can't say what's going on, but it's just a river! But even Li Yong's mentality has changed.
The soldiers of the guard company are all from the northwest, and most of them are from the vicinity of Yan'an, if there is no War of Resistance against Japan, the War of Liberation and the Korean War. They may have been hoe-wielding farmers all their lives, but now they have gone abroad to fight an enemy armed to the teeth in North Korea.
Are the fighters afraid? Certainly not afraid. Because they are no longer the croppers they used to be, their years of war have tempered them into iron-blooded soldiers who have been hardened into a hundred battles.
After crossing the Yalu River, on the opposite side is Sinuiju in North Korea, which is a real foreign land, and not a single one of the more than 200 soldiers speaks, only the motor of the car is turning happily, and it is several kilometers forward. A scene of war came into view.
There was rubble and scorched earth everywhere, there was not a single house intact, and the area as far as the eye could see was littered with craters. There are still many bombed courtyards around some large bomb craters, and wisps of green smoke emitting from some of the wood that has not yet burned out.
There is no doubt that it was once a densely populated residential area or a village, but now. It was a deathly silence. Not a little angry.
There is only a river a few hundred meters wide separating them, but the two sides of the river are two different worlds, and Anton only feels the atmosphere of war on one side, and the common people enjoy peace and tranquility, gossip and news after dinner and family shortness, while the other side is like a destroyed hell on earth.
The contrast is so great that people wonder why an inconspicuous river can play such a miraculous role!!
In fact, this strange phenomenon is not surprising. It is not the river that is only a few hundred meters wide that works at work, but the powerful deterrent power of the newly established New China. It is true that New China has just been founded, industry and agriculture are withering, and everything is in ruins, but its huge war potential cannot be ignored by anyone, and even if it is as powerful as the United States, it does not want to fight a full-scale war with China.
Brigade Commander Li Yong's muffled command voice came from the walkie-talkie: "Each vehicle is spaced apart, searching and advancing, ready for battle." ”
Although this should be the rear of the Volunteer Army, Li Yong did not think that it would be safe in the rear, you must know that in many cases the two sides have the habit of sending special operations teams to each other, and the missions of these squads are different, some are engaged in intelligence, and some are specialized in assassination and sabotage, Li Yong has seen some in the materials of later generations, so the necessary vigilance is indispensable.
Months have passed since the days of peace, and the soldiers of the guard company have once again felt the war, the war that is really born in front of them, and everyone's adrenal hormones have been secreted in large quantities again, damn it, finally in Korea, and finally going to war.
None of the soldiers in the three platoons of the guard company were recruits, they were all old fritters who had been rolling in the northwest battlefield for several years, and it only took a few seconds for them to merge with the battlefield, just like before.
The bullets were loaded, the knives were unsheathed, even the reinforced heavy machine guns and mortars were stripped of their guns and artillery jackets and supported behind sandbags, the rainproof tarpaulins of trucks and jeeps were lifted up, the cold wind blew, the sleepiness of the soldiers was gone, Ning Erzi took one of his platoon of soldiers through the convoy and marched forward in a combat team.
Ning Erzi and their platoon are all equipped with four-wheel drive small jeeps, which are very flexible and maneuverable, plus they are professional scouts, and it is most suitable to walk in front.
The topography of North Korea is very similar to that of Andong, there is not much flat land, most of it is the terrain of two mountains and one ravine, which is compared with the great northwest of China, and the mountainous terrain also makes the limited roads seem precious, and a road winds forward.
A copy of the military geography of North Korea was held by Li Yong, which was still obtained when he was about to leave, and reading the map in the bumpy jeep was a crime-taking task, and it didn't take long for Brigadier Li to feel that his eyes were a little unbearable.
But it's not okay not to look at it, go abroad to fight? I can't even read a map, so what kind of bird fight is there to fight? It's not that Li Yong can't understand it, but the light is too weak, and the snipers who are afraid of running into the enemy and lighting with a flashlight will give them a look at them from a distance.
What to do? The clever girl covered the flashlight with a cloth, and then unbuttoned her military coat and asked Li Yong to put his head into his chest clothes to read the map, so that there was a lighting source and the target would not be exposed, which was a good way to kill two birds with one stone.
The solution is good, because Li Jia is a girl, and she still has a little bit of fragrance, others didn't say anything, during the war, every qiē had to take fighting a war as the first priority, and it had nothing to do with Xiangyan, even Li Yong didn't think much about it, and quickly followed Li Jia's method.
But some people feel different, He Cuihua, who was sitting in a car, was almost mad by Li Jia's actions, cultural people, cultural people, really have a lot of eyes, such a small way to make Dayong put his head into her arms, is this looking at the map? Are you looking at a map? Kindness? Obviously what he was doing in the ................ He Cuihua couldn't say clearly, anyway, it had nothing to do with the war.
There is only such a highway in front of him, and there is no indication on the map that you can bypass it from other places, so it seems that you can only go here, Li Yong wants to change the road because the road conditions are too bad, but it seems that there is only one road that can pass through the mechanized troops, and it is still bombed and tattered.
Large and small craters can be seen everywhere on the winding road, and even the lightest small jeep has to be very careful to detour, not to mention those trucks, although it is said that there is a certain psychological preparation, Li Yong still feels that the Americans' strangulation war is really powerful, and the logistics of the volunteer army are not good in the first place, and if they are so messed up by the planes in the sky, it can be seen how difficult the troops on the front line are.
It can take more than an hour to walk in a hurry, according to Li Yong's estimate, this more than an hour's drive is not even twenty kilometers, damn it, this is also called a mechanized march? It is no different from a turtle crawling, no wonder the 38th Army did not arrive at the specified time during a battle, and it was so difficult to even march with small troops, let alone tens of thousands of large troops carrying heavy weapons.
Just when Li Yong was a little distracted, the convoy stopped, and a soldier from a reconnaissance platoon ran over quickly and reported in an urgent tone: "Brigade commander, we were stopped in front and said that we wouldn't let anything go, what should we do if the platoon commander asked me to come back and ask you for instructions?" ”
"Stopped? Stopped by whom? ”
"Report to the brigade commander, it's a few female soldiers, and we can't figure out what the unit is, but it seems to be North Koreans." The soldiers who came back to report couldn't figure out who had stopped them.
"Let's go, go over and have a look."
Li Yong asked the troops to stop advancing, and he and two jeeps walked forward with Li Jia, He Cuihua and a few other guard soldiers, and the company commander Li Yuming stayed in place to control the troops.
Sure enough, at the front of the convoy, the platoon commander Ning Erzi was negotiating with someone, don't look at this kid as a scout, and now he is also confused, seeing Li Yong coming is like seeing a savior:
"Brigade commander, you're here, you said that these girls don't understand what they say, we can't catch prisoners yet, I have no choice."
In the cold moonlight, in front of Ning Erzi stood several female soldiers with big guns on their backs, and the female soldiers were wearing military uniforms that were different from those of the volunteers, and they looked very energetic and neat.
Li Yong understood at a glance that these female soldiers must be female soldiers of the People's Army, and he didn't know why Ning Erzi and them were intercepted.
Ning Erzi didn't have the heart to know that these female warriors didn't seem to be enemies, otherwise he would have taken them down a long time ago, and he still had to use such a mouth.
At the same time as Li Yong looked at them, several female warriors were also looking at Li Yong and his party with scrutinizing eyes, and the vigilant gaze in their eyes never retreated, except for the female warrior who took the lead, the hands of the other two people never left the rifles on their shoulders.
"Little comrade, why did you stop us, can you tell me why?"
Li Yong didn't think they could understand Chinese, how many North Koreans on duty not too far from the Chinese border could not speak Chinese? Even if it's not a full meeting, a simple conversation should be fine, just like Mexicans, how many of them don't speak a few words of English? (To be continued......)
