I asked you to repeat your senior year of high school, but did you miss out on joining the military

Chapter 593 What are you afraid of? We can meet at the Martyrs' Cemetery
Out of caution, Chen Jun lay in a snow cave with a telescope, observing the enemy across the Mus River in Nepal over and over again. He was so careful that he could even see the enemy's movements, postures, and expressions when they were standing.

After all, the difference between a strictly trained regular army and a guerrilla army that relies solely on bravery and fighting can be distinguished from their actions.

After more than half an hour of inspection, Chen Jun couldn't see anything wrong with these people. They were just a group of militants wearing ragged clothes and wandering around the border to make a living.

There must be someone supporting them behind the scenes, otherwise they wouldn't have such good weapons to defeat the White Elephant Army without a trace.

But after all, they are not regular troops.

Chen Jun pondered for a moment, then he stepped out from the sentry post and found Wang Jianxing who was patrolling the firepower line. He asked, "Old Wang, I always feel that there is something wrong with this group of returnees."

"So many people gathered together, and they were able to take action and suppress their impulses. There must be a purpose behind this. Have they ever had internal conflicts in the past?"

"It's commonplace."

When Wang Jianxing mentioned this, he said cheerfully: "These guys are very cunning and have been beaten up by both sides. Sometimes when they are beaten up too hard, they go into exile. They all have their own agenda, and it is not uncommon for them to fight overtly or covertly."

"I know of two cases where they fought each other so hard that they were seriously injured and there was no movement for several years."

"Captain." Wang Jianxing said, he looked around, pulled Chen Jun to a remote place with no one around, and said in a low voice: "If you say there is a purpose, I can guess it."

"Could it be related to the 70th anniversary celebration?"

"This has happened more than once or twice. Whenever there is a major festival or a major suffering situation, there will be no peace on this side of the border."

"The National Day military parade will be held in a few days, and it is a grand military parade that only takes place once every ten years. I guess these people are trying to cause trouble."

"I guess so."

Chen Jun nodded thoughtfully.

There are some people who are always dissatisfied with the good life of their motherland and try every means to find some trouble. It's nothing strange.

Since we have discovered something is wrong, we must contact the regiment headquarters and other border defense companies as soon as possible to prepare for response.

Chen Jun and Wang Jianxing discussed it and found out that there was a telephone in Ramujia that could connect to the regiment headquarters or other border defense companies. That was why Wang arranged for the soldiers to go down the mountain yesterday.

That is to go to the supply camp to coordinate materials and make plans before closing the mountain.

But a sudden snowstorm put the phone in jeopardy, so the company arranged for the mobile squad to check and clear the wires covered by snow and restore communications as soon as possible.

It would be impossible to check tens of thousands of meters of telephone lines without two or three days.

Chen Jun looked dimly towards the direction of the distant mountain. In 2019, satellite phones had not yet been fully popularized in border defense, and many units were not equipped with them.

From the shores of the East China Sea to the desert plateau, from the white mountains and black waters to the ends of the earth, border management warning signs are prominently displayed and monitoring equipment operates around the clock.

It was not until the end of 21 that it was popularized in most border defense forces.

It is not possible now.

After all, many patrolled roads outside were not truly replaced by gravel roads until 17.

Border construction is not that fast.

The two discussed for a while, and Wang Jianxing was responsible for monitoring the defense situation here, the company commander was responsible for dispatch, and the instructor was responsible for pre-war appeasement work.

Chen Jun arranged for Li Wujie to take several soldiers from the regiment headquarters, run to the downhill position, fire a few shots at the foot of the mountain, and pass the message to the supply camp in advance.

There was nothing we could do. The incident happened suddenly, and with so many rebels ready to take action, the company's ammunition storage could not support such a large-scale operation.

Although everyone knows that this group of Hui people are just loud thunder but little action, and they don't have the courage to really attack the border defense company.

But the necessary preparations must be made.

Never fight an unprepared battle.

As everything was arranged in an orderly manner, night fell again. During this period, it is worth mentioning that

Because Chen Jun arranged for people to shoot at the other end, the sudden gunshots made the returning group extremely agitated, and they even took military action and crossed the Mus River with guns.

Enter the mule and horse road used for trading.

Because of diplomatic agreements, the Ramujia Border Defense Company does allow trade between the two sides and cross-border grazing, but it does not allow large-scale entry with guns.

Wang Jianxing is in charge of the firepower line here. How did Wang's leg become lame?

It was because this group of Hui elements crossed the Kori Pass a few years ago and planted mines on the Dole Highway. They happened to run into Lao Wang while he was on patrol and even his car was blown over.

Fortunately, the other party's mines were made of earth, and Lao Wang ran fast at the time, otherwise, he would have been killed there.

Now, dense groups of returning elements have just boarded the mule and horse roads. These people are the armed forces hated by the border guards on both sides and there is no need to warn them in advance.

Lao Wang immediately gave the order to start fighting.

That guy, three platoons of about a hundred people suddenly rushed out from both wings of the bunker, firing all kinds of weapons including light machine guns and heavy machine guns.

The noise directly shook the nearby snow piles, causing them to drop snow blocks, but unfortunately, the distance was too far and the other party saw that something was wrong and ran away too quickly.

In the end, only two dead horses, a few submachine guns, and a large pool of blood flowing into the Musi River were left.

When Chen Jun and other soldiers in the company arrived at the scene, the rebels who had gathered on the other side of the river had retreated several hundred meters.

Looking across the river.

But the other side gathered together without dispersing, and retreated without becoming chaotic. It was obvious that they had no intention of fighting to the end.

When Chen Jun rushed over, he looked Lao Wang up and down, and seeing that he was fine, he said: "It looks like tonight will be difficult. These people are just waiting for an opportunity to attack."

"We'll have to step up our guard at night and let these guys in anyway."

Gao Kui, the captain of Ramujia Company, also looked much more serious.

They are not afraid of these creatures coming back, but the main reason is that these creatures are like toads, crawling on their feet. Their bite doesn't hurt, but it's disgusting.

Fortunately, the snowstorm had just passed and business transactions on the Mule and Horse Road were temporarily suspended.

Otherwise, there is no telling what kind of trouble the returnees would cause.

. . . . . . . .

The situation on Ramujia's side was in a state of tension.

Chen Jun arranged for Li Wujie to run to the foot of the mountain and fire a shot to alert the supply camp at the foot of the mountain.

You know what, this trick really works.

The comrades who were arranged by Lao Wang to go down the mountain in advance and were responsible for coordinating supplies heard intermittent and intense gunfire coming from the mountain.

The specific situation was immediately reported back to the regiment headquarters.

When Cui Zhongquan, the political commissar of the 353rd Regiment, heard the news, he stood up from his chair with a bang.

His face was cloudy and uncertain.

Lao Cui received the news a few days ago that the border guards across the Mus River in Nepal were driven away and occupied by Hui elements.

This kind of thing is actually not uncommon, it has happened in previous years.

But what Lao Cui didn't expect was that a snowstorm suddenly occurred at this critical moment, and just happened to block the new team leader in Ramuga.

Cui Zhongquan is an old border guard.

He just listened to the supply camp's report on the situation on the mountain. When he learned that there were three waves of gunfire, each more fierce than the last, he concluded that something was wrong with the border defense company.

The returning elements this time are more difficult to deal with than before.

Old Cui had no idea that the three waves of gunfire he heard, the first wave was just used by Chen Jun to shoot eagles, the second wave was deliberately used to warn the people down the mountain, and the third wave was the real battle.

But as an old border guard, Cui Zhongquan’s experience is not just for show. He walked to the defense line map and stared at the Ramuga area for a while.

I can probably guess that the reason for their active return this time is probably not as simple as harassment. They may have made up their minds to make some moves in the Ramuga area.

The National Day military parade is approaching, so we cannot be careless.

Cui Zhongquan stared at the map in deep thought for a long time, then he opened the office door, walked into the corridor and shouted: "Xiao Li!!"

“Here!” As soon as the words fell, a second-term veteran ran upstairs from his duty post on the first floor, stood at attention, and saluted: “Hello, Political Commissar!!”

"Ah."

Cui Zhongquan put his left hand on his waist and pointed in the direction of the artillery company in front with his right hand and said: "Go, notify the entire artillery company to assemble and tell them that there is a combat mission."

"All members of the engineering brigade are dispatched. There is a blizzard in Lamuga and the mountain is blocked by heavy snow. There is a situation over there. The engineering brigade is required to dispatch as soon as possible and make sure to open up the mountain passage in the shortest possible time."

"At least get the artillery company up the mountain safely."

"Once you have assembled, move out immediately without waiting for instructions."

"Yes!!"

After explaining the affairs of the artillery company, Political Commissar Cui returned to his office and made another call to the Linzhi Military Sub-district Command.

After all, he was in charge of such a big matter as troop mobilization, and he had to report to the military sub-district no matter what.

It can't be that everyone here is having a great time while the people above us still don't understand what happened?
Originally, this kind of mobilization of troops for support was just a procedure, and it was done this way in the past.

But the amazing thing is that Chen Jun, a capable general transferred from the inland, was also trapped in Lamuga. After Ma Shengmin, the commander of the Linzhi Military Sub-district, received the news, he was also at a loss.

Putting aside his identity as the commander of the 353rd Regiment, this guy was transferred from the headquarters, and Ma Shengmin had no way to make the decision on his own. He quickly reported the situation in Ramuga to the Tibetan Military Region.

The result is still the same.

The Tibetan military region continued to report to its higher authorities.

At 7 p.m. on September 21, in the office of the Chief of Staff of the Western Theater Command, Li Hongtao received a report on what happened in the Ramujia Border Defense Company.

Li Hongtao also knew about the situation of the returnees jumping around at the border.

But he didn't expect that Chen Jun had only been transferred there for four months and he happened to be trapped in Ramuga.

Again, even Chen Jun and Wang Jianxing could figure out that something was wrong based on the situation on the other side of the Mus River in Nepal, so the people above are definitely not stupid.

The news was reported to the war zone layer by layer, which means that many people realized that the situation this time was not accidental, but a premeditated disruption.

Not to mention that Chen Jun is his nephew's husband, the fact that a regimental-level cadre is trapped is no small matter.

What's more, I can't avoid my nephew's husband either.

To be on the safe side, Li Hongtao passed the news to the old man while making arrangements.

It's not that he wanted to expose it, but since the matter has been reported to the war zone, it will be revealed sooner or later.

Because the theater of war itself does not have the authority to directly mobilize a certain unit for support, if it wants to mobilize, it still needs the cooperation of the service headquarters.

Not to mention that it involves border defense, which is no small matter.

What's the old man's temper like?

They were busy with the military parade, and when they heard about Ramujia's situation, they slapped the mahogany desk.

There was a loud bang, and several cadres in the confidential department were so frightened that they dared not breathe.

"furious!!"

The old man's face turned livid, and he was obviously really angry.

After cursing angrily, Li Zhenhua stood up and walked to the desk phone, punched in a set of numbers, and put the receiver to his ear.

"Lao Qin, it's me, Li Zhenhua."

"Send me some troops from the west to Ramuga. Send the best troops there. Beat these returning thugs at once. Frighten them and drive them back to their damn lair."

Old Qin is Qin Longfeng from the Army Headquarters, the person who previously replaced the old man.

In terms of seniority, he is half a generation younger than the old man.

Qin Longfeng was shocked when he heard the roar coming from the microphone. He had no time to think about Ramujia's information channel and how Mr. Li got it.

He quickly responded in a deep voice: "Just half a month ago, a team from Longya in Lao Shenna in the east was on a mission in Kangba, more than 700 kilometers away from Lamuga."

"Just let them pass."

"I don't care who you let go. Anyway, this time I must beat these people up so hard that they are scared away. It would be best if we kill them all."

"A bunch of bastards, they dared to interfere with the anniversary without any real effort."

After saying that, Li Zhenhua hung up the phone with a "click".

He stood at the desk with his hands behind his back, silent. The confidential officer beside him still stood there cautiously, not daring to say a word.

Others may not know, but they know very well that as the anniversary of National Day is getting closer, it has been a turbulent time recently.

Ramuga is just a microcosm of this.

No wonder the old man is so angry.

the other side.

The situation in the Ramujia Border Defense Company is still not optimistic.

After a tentative exchange of fire between the two sides, although the fleeing personnel on the other side of the Mus River did not step into the Mule and Horse Road again, there was no sign of disbanding and retreating.

They are still gathered there, seemingly waiting for their chance.

The villagers near the Mule and Horse Road have all evacuated to the air-raid shelters, and the soldiers in charge of defense on the front line have been replaced one after another.

It’s better during the day. Even if it’s cold, at least there’s some sunshine, which can give some psychological comfort.

But at night, the temperature dropped to minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius, and the cold wind blew on the body like needles.

That feeling was as unbearable as squatting in an ice cellar.

Inside the air-raid shelter, Chen Jun had no idea what was going on outside. At this moment, he was sitting there drinking vegetable soup accompanied by Chief of Staff Wang and a group of people from the regiment.

We are currently in a tense standoff period, and many places are covered by snowstorms, so there is no time to clean up.

The company’s only option for dinner was to boil some old spears in water.

Chen Jun looked at Li Wujie, who was crouching in the corner, drinking soup, and grinned: "Xiao Wu,"

"arrive!!"

Li Wujie heard the voice and stood up quickly.

Chen Jun smiled and waved his hand: "Okay, drink your soup, don't be so nervous."

"I'll give you a mission tonight. Guard the forest the whole time. This mission is very difficult. If we can't stop the attack of the returning personnel, you must find a way to protect the safety of the forest."

"Understand?"

Listening to the regiment commander giving orders to the young soldier, the group of veterans around him all laughed.

Anyone can see that the regimental commander cares for this lieutenant from the bottom of his heart, but after spending the last few months together, everyone has also figured it out.

Li Wujie is a really stupid guy, but he has reason to be stupid. Whenever anyone in the group privately questioned or discussed whether the leader was young and could handle things.

This guy really stood up and defended it without any hesitation.

It is obvious that with so many returnees gathering together, the matter will not go away. Tonight is the most difficult night.

The head of the group wanted to protect him, just in case.

However, when Li Wujie heard that he was asked to take care of the wounded, he immediately stood up again and raised his hand to wipe the soup stains from the corner of his mouth.

He said loudly: "Report to the battalion commander, you, you don't have to worry about me."

"Isn't it just about going to the battlefield to kill the enemy? If I can defeat them, I'll kill more of them. If I can't, we'll just meet at the Martyrs' Cemetery."

“I’m not afraid!!”
