Chapter 190 The Monkey's Mischief
Border
After two or three days of travel, Ji Lianqi finally arrived at the front line and joined up with the main force.
He traveled thousands of miles mainly to facilitate this "Operation Eagle".
At that time, the military region he served in had been rotated to the Vietnam front for "training", and because he was relatively experienced, the organization called him over.
Also summoned were He Peng and Lin Jie.
The three of them had been to the Vietnam front together.
Ye Ning was originally going to come, but the battalion commanders of two battalions had already been dispatched for this operation, so Hao Yonggang let Ye Ning stay in the regiment.
On the eve of action.
Most of the troops rested in the camp.
This is an advance team consisting of more than 80 fighters, as well as a hidden force in the rear consisting of dozens of people including Ji Lianqi.
When the soldiers gathered together to discuss and deploy tomorrow's plan, Ji Lianqi learned that some soldiers had already started rushing to the front line in southern Xinjiang on the eighth day of the twelfth lunar month, when people all over the country were welcoming the upcoming new year.
The First Commando had already fought the enemy in early January, and the one taking action this time was the Second Commando.
Not only were more people and weapons added, but additional hidden forces were also sent to the rear to protect the front.
Just to regain the high ground in one move.
Among these elites, the youngest is only eighteen or nineteen years old.
The conditions for this operation were harsh. Not only were there poisonous insects, heavy fog and humidity, but there was also a large temperature difference between day and night. In addition to carrying combat weapons and tools, the soldiers also needed to carry individual sleeping bags and tents.
When resting at night, if conditions permit, we will set up the tent. If not, we can only lie on the ground in the sleeping bag to rest.
Since there are limited tents, and if there are too many tents, there is a risk of being discovered by the enemy.
Therefore, two or three soldiers slept in one tent.
The two assigned to Ji Renqi were a warrior who was also a rear-line force and an elite member of the advance team.
The elite member of the advance team was named Dong Ming, and the other one was named Wan Guoyou.
This was also the second time for Dong Ming and Wan Guoyou to come here.
They need to gather their strength tonight and continue their advance into the enemy's interior tomorrow.
Before daybreak the next day, they packed up and set out.
This is a typical primeval forest with very few roads and tall bamboo trees, which serve as their natural cover. As long as they move quietly and their camouflage blends in with the forest, the chances of being discovered are extremely small.
By around noon, the team was still a long way from its target destination.
Ji Lianqi was the first to discover the strangeness and made some very secret marks along the way.
When they circled back to the marked spot, everyone suddenly realized that they had been going around in circles.
Lost?
He Peng came over and said, "We have been wandering around here for three hours. If we don't hurry up, we may miss tomorrow's action!"
Zhu Gang, the chief of operations, frowned and looked confused, unable to understand why he got lost.
Finally, he suggested that everyone split up into two groups to search for the exit and put up hidden guide markers along the way.
In addition, the communications troops were divided into two teams to ensure constant communication.
Ji Lianqi is the captain of the second echelon.
After walking for about twenty minutes, we heard a slight movement in a dense jungle.
Everyone immediately became alert and silently loaded their guns.
Ji Lianqi walked slowly in front to scout the way, and when everyone was ready, he signaled everyone to follow.
When they quietly approached the bushes where the noise came from, they suddenly discovered that it was a child in dirty clothes.
When the child saw so many guns pointed at him, he was terrified and ran into the jungle without looking back.
Ji Lianqi knew that this kid might be able to lead them out of here, so he ran after him and caught him in no time.
"Kid, why are you running?" He pulled the trigger safety.
Looking at the child with a frightened face, Ji Lianqi frowned deeply.
"Don't be afraid, we are from one country, we are Chinese soldiers."
The child looked at Ji Lianqi timidly, his body still trembling: "Are you...are you really Chinese?"
Noticing the fear and suspicion in the child's eyes, Ji Lianqi's eyes flashed with a hint of doubt.
"Don't you recognize the Chinese military uniform?"
The child shook his head.
Ji Lianqi squatted down, touched the child's head, and then pointed to his armband: "Do you see the five-pointed star on it?"
The child nodded.
"From now on, if you see a red star on an armband, it means the Chinese People's Liberation Army. They will not harm you."
The child looked at Ji Lianqi with a confused look.
The team members and their troops had followed us without us noticing when.
Seeing so many people, the child was so scared that he subconsciously wanted to run away.
"We won't hurt you!" Ji Lianqi grabbed the child back and patiently explained, "We are the People's Liberation Army and we are here to help you."
This child must have experienced war for many years and was in a state of panic for a long time, so he ran away in fear when he saw someone in military uniform.
"Can you tell uncle why you ran away when you saw us?"
Although he already had the answer in his heart, Ji Lianqi still asked.
He wanted to know more about the war situation here.
The child still looked timid. He pursed his lips and said in a crying voice:
"Those people wearing the same clothes as you beat many people in our village to death."
"Same clothes?"
Ji Lianqi's eyes were instantly filled with confusion.
The combat uniforms of these South Vietnamese monkeys are very similar to the camouflage uniforms of the People's Liberation Army, but this child seems unable to recognize the uniforms of the two armies. Could he have made a mistake?
Or maybe, it was just that group of rogue monkeys wearing our military uniforms and pretending to be our soldiers!
This is nothing new. The enemy started doing bad things when the war broke out.
Since the enemy's appearance is relatively similar to that of the local border villagers, and many of them can speak fluent Mandarin, they often pretend to be our country's soldiers and infiltrate the local area.
In order to identify these monkeys who took the opportunity to sneak in, they came up with the idea of singing military songs and taking off pants to look at underwear.
Thinking of this possibility, Ji Lianqi asked patiently again:
"Child, think about it carefully. Are they really dressed the same as us, or are they somewhat similar?"
