Chapter 127 Digging holes in the cat’s ears! A firefight on the front lines? (3,000 words)
"Ah? This is the special forces? I thought the special forces were all capable of doing anything in heaven or on earth?"
"It doesn't feel like a big deal."
"The special forces also tried to run, but were beaten to the point of fleeing."
Many people looked at the 'corpse' with curious expressions.
Especially the new recruits, all of them were very surprised, looking forward to, and commenting on the special forces.
They are really curious.
"There is also a Ninth Five-Year Plan here... What a good guy, he is really a son of a bitch. But I don't think he has much ability."
Wang Dabing picked up the captain's gun, looked at it, and sighed.
To be looked at and judged by others.
The second lieutenant did not dare to get angry or speak.
He is now a 'corpse', and he is indeed a little aggrieved.
In the exercise, the loser will be treated as if he died in actual combat. The equipment, clothes, and all the weapons on his body cannot be refused if the other party asks for it.
Of course, the 'corpse' has the right to remain silent. After all, corpses cannot speak in the first place.
"Damn it, this second lieutenant...does he have a skirt? Are there cosmetics here? This is such a big deal."
Suddenly, Li Xiu rummaged through his bag again and couldn't help but say.
As soon as he finished speaking, the second lieutenant, who had been silent all this time, finally couldn't bear it anymore.
"Shut up, this... this is a disguise."
"There are no women in the exercise. Who can you pretend to be? This land is no man's land. Do you still want to use a honey trap?" Zhou Ye, who was already 'dead', became happy. He was originally thinking that he was not on the battlefield.
He felt sad after surviving three seconds, but when he saw that the second lieutenant was like him, he suddenly felt better.
"Shut up. You're dead."
"You're not dead?"
At this time, Geng Jun had already searched everything in the second lieutenant's bag.
There weren't many things, just a military green sleeping bag, compressed biscuits, two magazines, and two grenades.
As for the items on the second lieutenant's body, in addition to the ghillie suit, there is also a personal communication device.
However, the Blue Army has obviously cut off the signal of this communication device.
Moreover, only the second lieutenant had night vision goggles.
After clearing the weapons from the blue army, the large army couldn't wait to build their positions.
Because the armored vehicles of the third, fourth, seventh and eighth squads were damaged in the battle.
Therefore, the remaining soldiers of Class Three, Class Four, Class Seven, and Class Eight were reorganized.
Of course, this kind of arrangement cannot allow you to be assigned to the second squad. After all, the armored infantry fighting vehicle combat compartment of the second squad can only carry eight people at most.
They can only be reorganized to maintain combat effectiveness.
"Li Xiu, I have a task for you."
"You can take these brothers with you for now."
"Although we were ambushed, we should occupy the position. You stay here to consolidate the position."
Li Xiu took a look and saw that most of them were upper-class soldiers, and there was also a first-term non-commissioned officer.
Six people in total.
However, everyone knows that Li Xiu is the leader of the fourth company of sharpshooters, and his prestige is indescribable.
"Yes." Li Xiu responded immediately.
Once the position is secured, it can still be easily reoccupied if no fortifications are built.
The Seventh Steel Regiment has an engineer company, but this manpower is definitely not enough, so some manpower needs to be allocated to build fortifications.
Li Xiu was quite happy to break away from the large army so that he could be relatively free. Moreover, it was not impossible to leave the rear without leaving the large army.
The battlefield is not set up on one side's blind spot. It is often easier to ambush on the flanks or rear than to break through from the front.
There is definitely a fighting chance too.
Soon, the large army continued to move forward.
Some people were left to build fortifications here.
Not only Li Xiu, but also the experienced monitor of the third squad.
"Do you know how to pierce cat ears?"
Cat ear piercing.
This thing is very famous in history and was widely used by our army.
This thing has many uses and types, especially Laoshan War, which has various kinds of cat ear holes.
For example, ambush cat's ear holes, outpost cat's ear holes, artillery observation post cat's ear holes...there are many kinds.
Li Xiu naturally did not forget the tradition. He had practiced in the Fourth Company of Sharpshooters and was very proficient.
"Okay, then you can take someone to dig on the side wall. Dig in a V-shape."
"good."
V-shaped cat ear holes. People can also sleep in it, and can accommodate two people.
The space inside the cave is extremely small, and the two of them cannot stand when they hide inside. They can only squat or half-lying, and their heads even need to protrude forward.
This is for emergency use and is usually left empty.
It took about an hour to dig a cat's ear hole. Since there was plenty of time, Li Xiu dug deeper. He also prepared turf that could be covered at any time and used as cover at night.
Of course, turf can only perform basic camouflage, and the flaws can be seen during the day.
Li Xiu had been busy all afternoon and was a little tired.
Damn, this thing is really not a very good job.
After working all afternoon, he was almost exhausted.
During this process, there was constant support from the regiment's heavily armored vehicles, which continued to move forward.
The fifth tank company, the eighth tank company, and several other mechanized infantry companies.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Li Xiu for the time being.
Currently, Li Xiu can only perform the tasks assigned to him by his superiors.
In addition to cat-ear holes, digging trenches is naturally indispensable.
A deep trench basic position and dot-shaped reconnaissance positions.
Of course, cat-ear holes must also be dug in the trenches. This time it is a relatively deep cat-ear hole, so you can sleep in it. Although the position is very good, you also need to pay attention to the howitzers that can shoot in a straight direction.
Especially for fragmentation damage such as howitzers, trenches are not enough. It is safer to stay in the cat-ear holes on the flanks of the trenches.
At this time, Li Xiu had just finished inspecting the cat's ear holes dug by a superior soldier and nodded, which was considered qualified.
"Squad leader, when can we take a break?"
Li Xiu was a little uncomfortable with the rank of soldier calling him squad leader, but the others were convinced.
The army is Mu Qiang's enemy. Although seniority is also important, Li Xiu is too strong.
Li Xiu thought for a while and said, "Don't forget that we still have to take turns to stand guard."
"I'll be in class 2 and 4."
Li Xiu took the initiative to take on the most difficult task.
Hells 2 to 4 are undoubtedly the most uncomfortable positions of the night.
This means that you can sleep until two o'clock at most, and then wait until four o'clock to go to bed again. One sleep is divided into two sleeps, and it is easy to have an unstable sleep.
"Is this appropriate?" The first-term sergeant hesitated.
"Don't worry. But I've come up with a plan. We'll work overtime tonight and lay a few booby traps." Li Xiudao.
"Booby trap?" The first-term sergeant was a little confused.
There is no such task.
"I have just been observing the landscape, and there are several spots that are suitable for lurking. Everyone may not be so energetic at night, so I don't feel comfortable standing guard."
Li Xiu also has experience in the ability to camouflage and lurk, so he also has experience in finding suitable places to lurk.
