Codename Doctor, Moved to Hong Kong

Chapter 195 Mekong River Ambush 2
Zhang Chaoyang didn't even need to aim, he just raised his gun and fired, emptying the magazine in one breath.

After emptying the magazine, Zhang Chaoyang shrank behind a big tree, the 98K in his hand disappeared instantly, and he replaced it with a fully loaded 98K sniper rifle.

Then he poked his head out from behind the tree and continued shooting.

After quickly emptying the magazine, he didn't even need to change the magazine, but directly changed the gun. He alone could defeat more than a dozen people with his momentum.

He was alone, suppressing the government troops on the upstream and downstream cargo ships so that they dared not show up.

Zhang Chaoyang's attack provided Meng He and others with favorable conditions to disembark.

Soon, except for Hou Qiang and his men who remained on the boat, everyone else moved to the shore.

"Meng Shuo, take a squad to support Bian Ning and take down the position over there as soon as possible!" After Meng He got ashore, he ordered someone beside him.

"Yes!"

"Everyone from Team Two, follow me!" Meng Shuo responded, and with the eight of them, they crouched down, quickly left the shore, and headed towards Bian Ning.

"Hou Qiang, get ready!

I will provide you with fire cover!" Meng He shouted to the ship again.

"Yes!" Hou Qiang responded.

Following Meng He's order,
Meng He and the people around him jumped out from behind the tree, holding light machine guns and submachine guns and firing at the boats upstream and downstream.

At this time, Hou Qiang and others also stood up from the boat and fired a rocket at the boats on both sides and upstream and downstream.

Then, throw the rocket launcher, jump into the river directly from the top of the cabin, and swim quickly to the shore.

Under the cover of everyone, the team led by Hou Qiang also reached the shore safely.

At this moment, there was a burst of fierce gunfire from upstream and downstream, accompanied by the sound of rocket explosions.

In an instant, thick smoke billowed out of several cargo ships of the government forces, accompanied by flashes of fire.

At this time, support from Meng He's troops arrived at the scene.

At this point, the Siamese government army's decapitation operation was a complete failure.

After waiting for another ten minutes, a soldier came back to report that the government army positions on the left bank had been successfully eliminated.

More than a hundred people were captured.

Ask what to do.

Meng He glared and said, "Prisoners? Tell Bian Ning that the battle is not over yet, how can there be any prisoners?"

"Yes!" the soldier responded and turned around to report.

The meaning of Meng He's words was very clear, he wanted no prisoners and just shot them all.

"Wait!" Zhang Chaoyang called to the soldiers, "Meng He, ask Bian Ning to bring the prisoners over."

"Go! Do as the master tells you!" Meng He waved to the soldiers.

Then he looked at Zhang Chaoyang in confusion, "Sir?"

"You will be operating in Siam and Cambodia in the future. What's the point of shooting those prisoners now?" Zhang Chaoyang chuckled.

"What do you mean, sir?"

“You want to negotiate, and keeping these prisoners is a bargaining chip.

If you want to demonstrate ruthless measures and intimidate government forces, you can publicly impose the death penalty, which is also a bargaining chip.

Do you know why the generals in ancient times built Jingguan?

Because simply killing people is not enough to intimidate the enemy.

One general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers. Since ancient times, death on the battlefield has been normal, but it is not enough to deter the enemy.

Only by building a Jingguan can we deter the enemy." Zhang Chaoyang explained grimly.

"Sir, do you want me to build a Jingguan?" Meng He asked in surprise.

“Shit!
This is modern times, not ancient times!
In modern times, if you build a Jingguan, you are seeking death, and others will regard you as a terrorist!
You just need to publicly execute him and that will be enough to deter those people!" Zhang Chaoyang cursed angrily.

"I understand!" Meng He was stunned for a moment before he nodded in sudden realization.

Public executions are enough to intimidate the spineless government forces, but not so much that it would be unacceptable to the international community.

After all, it was the government army that started the trouble and assassinated them. If you can't beat them, you can't blame them for their cruel methods.

“Also, with these prisoners, you can figure out which government forces they are.

Who gave the order?

Although you have led the team yourself, you should not have forgotten the job of beheading people, right?" Zhang Chaoyang added with a smile.

"I understand!" Meng He smiled grimly.

Assassination and beheading are their specialties. In the past years, they have been trained on how to assassinate and how to behead.

This is the same kind of work.

Don't be too skilled.

However, after arriving in Siam, in order to avoid arousing public outrage, he put away the carriage and horses and played with them slowly.

Yes, play!
In Meng He's view, the current war is like a game.

Whether it is Siam or Cambodia, their government forces are a group of deformed spineless people.

When dealing with ordinary people internally, they are very brutal and powerful.

However, when facing external forces, when facing strong opponents, they all become spineless.

Soon, Bian Ning and Meng Shuo came back with more than a hundred prisoners.

"Take them to the riverside and shout at the government troops on the cargo ships upstream and downstream!

Let them surrender!" Zhang Chaoyang said to Meng He.

"Yes!"

Meng He agreed and turned around to make arrangements.

Soon, more than a hundred prisoners were escorted to the river at gunpoint.

Then, Meng He arranged for people to shout to the people upstream and downstream, asking them to surrender and lay down their weapons.

Faced with pressure from both sides, the government troops on the cargo ship soon collapsed, raised the white flag, and surrendered.

Seeing this situation, the government troops on the right bank had no choice but to retreat quickly.

Meng He's men began to clean up the battlefield.

Zhang Chaoyang also returned to the passenger ship, drinking tea and waiting for the results of the battle on Meng He's side.

While Zhang Chaoyang was smoking half a cigar, Meng He finally cleaned up the battlefield and came in to report the situation.

“Sir, we killed 167 people in total and captured more than 350 people.

Thirty cargo ships were seized, most of which were ships of about five tons.

There were guns and ammunition, including more than 500 rifles and 2,000 rounds of bullets, all of which were Type 38 rifles.

There are also two field guns, five 60mm mortars, and thirty rounds of artillery shells." Meng He said.

This is the battlefield. Although the fighting between the two sides was fierce just now, in fact, the hit rate was frighteningly low.

For Meng He and his men, killing more than a hundred people was already a very good achievement.

"Yeah!" Zhang Chaoyang nodded without much concern.

The amount seized this time is not important.

What’s important is that the government forces gave Meng He an excuse to send troops.

We just took over a town last time, and it won’t be over until we take over a county this time.

While the passenger ship was still sailing on the Mekong River, Meng He had already completed the deployment of troops.

"Sir, do you have anything else to say?" After arranging the troops, Meng He came to the cabin and asked Zhang Chaoyang.

"There's nothing to explain, just do whatever you want!
Later, I will buy you a few inland patrol boats.

I don’t want to be blocked on the river again next time I come here.” Zhang Chaoyang said with a smile.
