War Military: From 1978

Chapter 89 Reward, Live in a Cat Ear Cave

When Chu An rushed back to the first battalion’s base, the other four members of the class had already returned.

And not only did they come back, but none of them lost anything except their weapons and the artillerymen's food.

Only other daily necessities and small shovels were thrown away by them.

"Well done, comrades! We didn't embarrass the Mountain Eagle Development Team tonight!"

In the temporary barracks of the first battalion, Chu An stood in the tent and spoke with a smile.

After being worried all the way, he finally felt relieved.

"Squad leader, what are the details of what happened next?"

"That's right! Squad Leader, you only said that Deputy Captain Ding and the others are fine. Can you tell me more about that?"

"Okay!" Chu An nodded with a smile, but after nodding, he didn't rush to say anything. Instead, he asked everyone to sit on the beds next to him, and then he took a can of food that the instructor had just sent over and opened it.

I'm a little hungry, so I talked while eating.

"Hey, why does it suddenly feel a bit unusable? Can you take a look?"

This is the temporary regimental headquarters.

When Chu An arrived at the first camp, Zheng Wei also returned with night vision binoculars.

After he mentioned that the telescope could provide night vision, several cadres in the regiment couldn't help but cheer on the spot.

They came outside and took turns looking at it.

But when the team leader took action again, he looked at it for a while and then let out a light exclamation.

"Let me see!"

Zhengwei was a little nervous.

Someone nearby even expressed his nervousness: "Don't worry, it's broken!"

Soon, the telescope came into his hand.

Put it in front of you.

Sure enough, the night vision effect is much worse, and now I can only see less than ten meters.

"This thing uses electricity, right? Maybe it's out of power?" The deputy chief of staff whispered beside him.

"Study it!" A deputy group leader reached out to take it from the chairman.

But Zheng Wei hurriedly avoided it: "Don't mess around!"

Zheng Wei said seriously: "Whether it's out of power or really broken, let's not mess around."

After a pause, he turned around and walked back into the house with the telescope in hand: "Well, let's contact the division headquarters immediately and have them send this thing up there so that our scientists can study it!"

"Row!"

“Yes, we ordinary people don’t understand, so we should give it to the scientists.

"But Captain, Zhengwei, when we deliver it, we have to tell them that if this thing is replicated and researched later, we must give priority to getting a batch for our group!"

"Yes, yes, this is really a great thing! It can actually see so far at night. If we had this, it would be much more convenient to operate at night!"

"Not only that, don't forget, the Vietnamese devils do have this thing. If we don't have it, if a fight really breaks out, we'll probably suffer a big loss tonight!"

A group of group leaders followed him a few steps back to the house and started talking at once.

But then they immediately became quiet again when Zhengwei picked up the phone.

This was originally a militia training ground with a wired telephone, and the division headquarters has not moved its location, so we can contact them directly by phone.

Soon, the call was connected. After Zheng Wei informed the other party of the news about the telescope, he immediately caused exclamations from the other party...

Of course, Zhengwei did not forget to explain how Chu An snatched it away during this process.

This is a face-saving thing.

Originally, some people above had different opinions on their previous Mountain Eagle Growth Team. What do you think now?

Without the Mountain Eagle Growth Team, there would be no such good things.

……

"Contact the First Battalion and ask if Chu An has returned. If he has, have him and his squad leave immediately and come to the regimental headquarters!"

At the regimental headquarters, after the commissioner hung up the phone, the commander immediately turned around and gave orders to the communicator.

The division chief of staff said that he would personally bring people to get the telescope, and also said that he wanted to meet Chu An in person. Naturally, he would not refuse such a thing.

But they don’t know whether Chu An has arrived at the first battalion.

Because so far, the first battalion has only reported the return of four people from Chu An's class.

"Ask later if all the people from the first battalion in Nonggu have arrived. If they have, ask if arrangements have been made to send back those injured soldiers and cadres?" Zhengwei also added at this time.

"Yes!" The communicator immediately responded and started to contact.

The First Battalion, whether in Nonggu or the temporary base, currently had no wired telephone lines, so they could only communicate by radio. Soon, Chu An and his companions, who were still eating in the First Battalion's temporary tent and chatting with a few comrades about previous events, received a personal notice from the First Battalion's instructor.

At that moment, Chu An was a little speechless.

They are really tired tonight!

I had previously crossed mountains and rivers to measure coordinates, and then I encountered that incident again.

Now, we finally got back to the base and can take a rest, but who would have thought that the regiment headquarters would give orders!
Let them pass!
This is nearly twenty kilometers!

Although I was used to measuring the land with my feet when I joined the team, the daily march was basically no less than this number.

But he was extremely tired today. The most important thing was that it was already past ten o'clock in the evening, and he still had to measure twenty kilometers of land on foot at this time. Even though the instructor said that he was going to receive a commendation, Chu An still didn't want to go.

Of course, this kind of thing is not a question of whether he wants to or not.

He is a soldier now and military orders are as heavy as a mountain.

Even if you don't want to go, you have to set off.

"I've been a soldier for two years, and this is the first time I've been personally commended by the regiment commander!"

"We've been awarded before, but that was because we did a good job on our production tasks. I've never encountered a situation where just one class is being awarded!"

Chu An felt a little helpless as they hurried on their journey under the starry night, but the soldiers in the other squads were all as energetic as if they had been injected with chicken blood.

Even though they didn't know that they would receive personal condolences from the division chief of staff during this trip, they were extremely excited.

There is no trace of the previous look of people saying they almost broke their legs from running.

"Okay, save your energy, it's still a long way to go!" Chu An interrupted them.

In fact, he had a horse to ride. Although all the other horses in the battalion were taken away, he rode one back.

But there was only one horse, and he couldn't ride it while others were watching.

So we can only share the good times and the bad times together.

Fortunately, Chu An and his friends didn’t have to walk the 20 kilometers in the end.

Not long after Chu An and his men left the first battalion, the regiment commander and his men realized that the first battalion now had no horses. In this situation, Chu An and his men could only walk over.

The time was critical, and Chu An and his men were meritorious officials, so a truck carrying supplies was specially arranged to take a detour to pick up Chu An and his men.

That night, after arriving at the temporary headquarters of the regiment, Chu An and other members of the group accepted inquiries and verbal commendations from the regiment commander, and then accepted condolences and verbal commendations from the division chief of staff.

Afterwards, they were arranged to stay directly at the regiment headquarters.

But the next day, they returned to the first camp again.

Moreover, because of what happened last night, the artillery reconnaissance plan was temporarily cancelled. After they returned to the First Battalion, they were only arranged to serve as observers on the two high grounds on the First Battalion's side, and also cooperate with the soldiers of the First Battalion to build defensive fortifications.

"Damn it, squad leader, look!"

On the afternoon of the third day in Kamikochi, heavy rain poured down.

Chu An was lying on the northern slope of the high ground in the cat cave he had dug and built himself. Suddenly, Luo Yun rushed in in the rain!
"what?"

Chu An rubbed his eyes and sat up.

He was on guard until early last night, and now it's raining heavily, so he's catching up on his sleep!

"Newspaper! Squad leader, the incident at Zhennanguan has been reported!"

After Luo Yun crawled into Chu An's cat ear cave, which was relatively spacious and even obviously more comfortable and drier than his own, he reached out and took out a slightly wet newspaper from his arms.

This was just delivered.

After seeing it, he immediately took a copy and sent it to Chu An!

Chu An reached out and took it.

"Here. Here!" Luo Yun pointed to the place where the story of Zhen Nanguan was published in the newspaper.

Chu An looked over immediately.

After just a moment, Chu An gritted his teeth and threw the newspaper away: "MD, I won't read it anymore!"

It’s a bit annoying!
Because the newspaper said that when the Vietnamese devils drove more than 400 people to attack our checkpoint on the 25th, dozens of refugees were killed or injured due to violence along the way.

The key point is that the newspaper also said that after they occupied a high ground near Zhennanguan, they actually dug fortifications and erected barbed wire on it overnight.

Later, they even took advantage of the high ground's geographical location, stood on it and threw stones to prevent our personnel from passing through to patrol.

"Damn, these Vietnamese devils are so hateful. I don't know whether they were driven away today!" Luo Yun was obviously very angry.

The information reported in this newspaper was from the day before yesterday.

As for today's news, it will take at least one or two days for it to be published in the newspaper.

"Just wait, one day they will be paid back with interest!"
