AWB Chapter 610 Street Fighting
Chapter 610 Street Fighting
Zhao Cheng and Lao Wu stood on the top of the fortress, looking at the mountains in the distance.
"Dad, you are not really here to see me, are you?" Wei Lai said with a smile.
"What else should I do if not to see you? I want to see how you perform in the real battlefield! You and the fourth brother didn't let me down! Keep up the good work! But be careful, your fourth brother is already injured!" Zhao Cheng hit the fifth brother's shoulder and said with a smile.
"Dad, please tell me in detail!" Wei Lai asked with his eyes wide open.
"What's there to say in detail? If you want to hear it, go find your fourth brother after the war! He didn't know how to fight hand-to-hand with others and got stabbed. He deserved it! He is always lazy, and this time he will remember it!" Zhao Cheng scolded with a smile.
Wei Lai was also at a loss for words. When it came to physical training, they were the two laziest, always the worst and the laughing stock! Now that Fourth Brother was injured, it seemed he had to step up his physical training too!
"Instructor!" The squadron leader came to Zhao Cheng and saluted him.
"Xu Hui! You fought too conservatively in this battle! Don't be afraid of casualties! Although the special forces use surprise attacks as their main means of combat, they cannot lack the courage to fight tough battles! Casualties are not scary, just summarize the lessons and strengthen training! If our troops want to grow, how can they not go through the test of blood and fire? Right?" Zhao Cheng turned around and returned the salute, and couldn't help but say.
"Yes, I understand! Instructor, I will definitely correct it in the future!" said squadron leader Xu Hui.
"Okay! When I was training you, there was no suitable battle for you to participate in. The training is enough, but it lacks the test of a large-scale war. I hope you can seize the opportunity and sum up the experience and lessons in this war. Our future special forces will still need fresh blood like you to grow up! After all, your captain and I are old!" As he said this, Zhao Cheng patted Wei Lai beside him.
Xu Hui looked at Wei Lai and smiled. "Instructor, if you say our captain is old, I'd believe him. He can't even sustain two 400-meter runs these days! But looking at your performance on the battlefield just now, you're so much better than our most powerful Wei Lai! You're being way too modest!"
"How can he not be old? Wei Lai is the fifth child in my family. He is already 23 this year. I am almost 50! I am old!" Zhao Cheng said with a smile.
"By the way, instructor, the person killed this time was a major battalion commander. This guy actually had so many guards. Isn't it a bit abnormal? I remember that there was only one guard squad at their level!" Xu Hui asked curiously.
"That's normal. They have always provided very high standards for the protection of their commanders. However, I just killed one of their colonels two days ago. I guess this incident made the Vietnamese army feel that their guard force was insufficient, so they strengthened the guards. Didn't you notice that they only have one guard platoon in the regular army, but they also lead a militia guard company? I guess the higher the rank, the more people they add!" Zhao Cheng sneered at the Vietnamese army's over-protection.
The better the protection, the more afraid of death these guys become. They will inevitably be affected psychologically and become more conservative in commanding operations.
It's okay to let them fight small battles, such as guerrilla warfare, but when it comes to large-scale military operations, they are just waiting to be eaten!
"Dad, you killed a colonel? Who was it?" Wei Lai asked curiously.
"Ruan Haiping! Chief of Staff of the Second Military Region and Commander of the 316th Division. This guy is the biggest commander on the front line that I know of!" Zhao Cheng said.
"It has to be you, instructor!" Xu Hui couldn't help but give a thumbs up to Zhao Cheng.
"Okay, it's enough for us to know about it, don't spread it around! It's not a big deal. If the Vietnamese army didn't have a tradition of sending senior officers to the front line, wouldn't it be better to just beat a general to satisfy your desire? You guys continue to pack up and set off! I'll go to the east to see the situation of the guards! I'm leaving!" Zhao Cheng saw other people appearing in the distance, so he said goodbye.
Xu Hui and Wei Lai saluted Zhao Cheng and watched him quickly cross a distance of more than a hundred meters and dive into the jungle, soon disappearing without a trace.
"Wei Lai, how do you think your father manages to keep his body in such peak physical condition?" Xu Hui asked curiously.
"Haha, I don't understand it either. My father has had this physical condition since I can remember." Wei Lai said helplessly.
"Instructor, your skills are still as sharp as ever!" Xu Hui couldn't help but sigh this time.
After Zhao Cheng left his future unit, he walked for more than two hours and arrived near Laojie. Laojie was now surrounded by the 14th Army. The Red River was basically occupied by our army. The dumpling skins had been wrapped, and we were just waiting for the fillings.
When Zhao Cheng arrived, he happened to catch up with our army's annihilation operation against the enemy in Laojie. Zhao Cheng observed and found that the battle in Laojie City was not going well.
After all, street fighting is the most brutal kind of combat, and the Vietnamese army has some experience in small-scale combat and guerrilla warfare.
This resulted in our attacking troops suffering slightly more casualties, preventing us from achieving a crushing victory.
So Zhao Cheng found a small opening and went straight into the old street area and came to the forefront.
Because Zhao Cheng was wearing our army uniform and had helped several soldiers suppressed by machine gun fire along the way, he was soon followed by a squad of soldiers.
Zhao Cheng felt as if he was back in the time when he led his troops to charge into battle in North Korea, so Zhao Cheng led his soldiers to continuously attack the enemies in the city.
With Zhao Cheng as the spearhead and the soldiers in the rear as the two wings, they continued to advance deep into Laojie. When the surrounding troops saw Zhao Cheng's breakthrough, they unconsciously increased their forces to Zhao Cheng to expand their victory.
Since the old street area was not large and there were not many reinforced concrete buildings, Zhao Cheng quickly penetrated the entire area.
After breaking out of the urban area, Zhao Cheng began to choose a direction and began to use counter-encirclement tactics to encircle and suppress the Vietnamese soldiers in the urban area from the rear?
Faced with our army attacking from three sides, the Vietnamese army's resistance became increasingly difficult, and Zhao Cheng's fighting style was also very insidious. For example, if there were Vietnamese soldiers in a house, the general approach would be to enter the house and clear them out.
Zhao Cheng threw grenades into the house crazily. It was a house of more than 20 square meters, and Zhao Cheng threw six grenades into it, directly blowing the house into ruins before going in to clean up the enemies.
Through this combat method, the troops led by Zhao Cheng quickly cleared a large area, which made the 37th Division commanding in the rear curious and asked how the battle was fought so smoothly?
Was it the Vietnamese army that was too weak? Or was it our army that was too powerful? When they heard that a veteran on the front lines had turned street fighting into a game of demolition, their attack speed increased significantly, and they immediately followed suit.
As a result, the entire old street was occupied after only five hours of our attack, and after the occupation, there were basically no intact buildings left in the old street city area.
All the bungalows and wooden houses were reduced to rubble, and the reinforced concrete buildings were basically dilapidated and leaky. After that, there was no longer much value in repairing them, so they had to be demolished and rebuilt?
