A generation of soldiers begins with Feng Yuxiu traveling through time and space with Xu Sanduo

Chapter 295 Tang Xinyi's Appearance, Feng Yuxiu's Attack

The Blue Army headquarters received the news, and Commander Gao Shiwei was in high spirits.

"He Zhijun and his men have captured the commander of the Red Army's Iron Fist Regiment. I have ordered a full-scale attack to seize this opportunity to annihilate the Iron Fist Regiment and kick it out of this exercise!"

On Hill 291, countless artillery shells rained down from the sky, and flames rose into the air along with sand and dust.

Gong Jian and the others huddled inside the pit, gazing at the flames filling the sky.

"Instructor, we've lost contact with the regimental headquarters!" Old Black, the squad leader, shouted in panic.

"What?!" Gong Jian exclaimed in shock. "How could we be out of contact? We need reinforcements now, otherwise we'll be completely wiped out. Keep the call going!"

Old Hei gritted his teeth in despair, "Communications are down, is there a problem at the regimental headquarters? There must be a problem."

Looking at He Chenguang and Li Erniu fleeing in the distance, Lao Hei shouted, "Instructor, make a decision quickly! We have no support. If we keep going like this, we will be completely annihilated."

"Our orders are to hold Hill 291 to the death!" Gong Jian roared.

Rumble!
Another round of artillery fire erupted.

Gong Jian watched in despair as white smoke rose from the bodies of at least four or five hundred people.

"Instructor!!" Old Hei roared, his eyes bloodshot.

Gong Jian clutched his chest in anguish, "Retreat! We can't let our entire force be wiped out!"

"Get out of here immediately!" Old Hei ordered.

At the intersection, the third squad of the third platoon of the sixth company was still guarding their position.

The distant artillery fire roared deafeningly.

Cai Xiaoxin leaned against a big tree and smacked her lips, "Being in the first tier is really tough."

Wang Yanbing held his sniper rifle and stared into the distance.

Squad Leader Huang ran over from a distance, saw Cai Xiaoxin, and kicked him in the head.

Cai Xiaoxin's face was covered in blood from being kicked in the nose, and she hurriedly stood up straight.

"If I ever see you like this again, I'll break your legs, you fucking try!"

"Reporting, squad leader, I won't do it again!" Cai Xiaoxin shouted loudly.

Wang Yanbing suddenly stood up, "There's something going on up ahead!"

The group instantly hid in the ravine, gazing into the distance.

A convoy of tanks rumbled in.

Cai carefully wiped the blood from his nose and peeked out, "Is that our tank?"

“Our tank battalion is in front, and this is coming from behind!” Wang Yanbing said.

"Are there no more tank units behind us? Maybe they're from another regiment!" Cai Xiaoxin said.

Squad Leader Huang picked up his binoculars, but dust filled the air around the tanks, obscuring their view. The tank convoy rumbled closer and closer.

"Send the signal!" Sergeant Huang ordered.

Cai carefully picked up the searchlight, turned it on, and signaled.

The tank convoy stopped about 10 meters away from them.

"What did I tell you? It's our tanks, they can read signals!" Cai Xiaoxin said dismissively.

Wang Yanbing looked closely, then suddenly exclaimed in shock: "The Blue Army!"

The Blue Army flag hanging on the tank became visible in the swirling dust.

"Get out of the way!" Squad Leader Huang roared.

The heavy machine gun on the tank opened fire, and Wang Yanbing rolled off the infantry fighting vehicle. Smoke began to rise from the bodies of the other soldiers.

Squad Leader Huang took off his helmet and stood up: "It's over, it's all over. It's smoking, get up!"

The soldiers stood up one after another.

"Why aren't you standing up yet?" Cai Xiaoxin asked, looking at Wang Yanbing, who was still lying under the armored vehicle.

Wang Yanbing remained silent, clutching his weapon.

Squad Leader Huang cursed under his breath, "He's not dead! Don't shout! Yanbing, we'll cover you! You get out of here!"

"Monitor..."

"Oh dear! I'm already a martyr! You'd better get out of here!" Squad Leader Huang said in a low voice.

Several soldiers jumped off the tank opposite and walked over with guns: "From the Iron Fist Regiment, right?"

"Yeah, yeah! We're all dead! Which regiment are you from?" Sergeant Huang asked, trying to cover for them.

“From the 601st Regiment,” a lieutenant on the other end replied.

Squad Leader Huang walked over, took out a cigarette and offered it to him: "Hey, I have a fellow villager in 601! His name is Ji Daoqing, do you know him?"

The lieutenant was stunned: "You know our Deputy Regiment Commander Ji?"

"Yes! I already said we're from the same hometown! His son, Ji Tianyi, and I were high school classmates! His wife, Ms. Cong Rui, was my high school homeroom teacher!"

The lieutenant immediately relaxed his guard: "Well, we're all on the same side, no problem! Are you starving? Hey, squad leader, get me something to eat!"

"We're all on the same side, don't talk like outsiders!" Squad Leader Huang laughed.

Wang Yanbing crawled on his hands and knees under the infantry fighting vehicle and rolled into the river.

He lay in the water and slowly crawled away from the danger zone until he reached the bridge.

-

-

Wang Yanbing carried a sniper rifle as he traversed the mountains and forests.

Suddenly he saw a familiar figure.

"Platoon leader??"

But when he blinked again, Feng Yuxiu's figure had completely disappeared.

"My eyes are playing tricks on me. The platoon leader is in the hospital right now."

The Blue Army began searching the mountain, and Wang Yanbing hid in the grass, too afraid to move.

Suddenly, a pair of large hands covered his mouth.

"Waaaaah..." Wang Yanbing instinctively began to retaliate with his elbow.

"It's me," said Old Black, the squad leader.

Wang Yanbing exclaimed with delight, "I thought you were all killed in action!"

“Our regiment is completely out of contact now. There are less than two battalions left. We came out to find the people who were scattered,” He Chenguang explained as he crawled out.

Wang Yanbing was shocked. "Where's the regimental commander?"

"The regimental commander has been arrested. The entire regiment is now gathering at the Dongdongyao landmark."

Wang Yanbing was somewhat bewildered. "We're a mechanized infantry regiment, are we now only allowed to march on foot?"

Old Hei glared at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense and get going."

Wang Yanbing hesitated for a moment, "I think I just saw the platoon leader."

"That platoon leader?" Old Hei asked.

"Platoon Leader Xu."

Old Hei slapped Wang Yanbing on the forehead. "Are you out of your mind? Platoon Leader Xu was seriously injured and is in the hospital now. Go with him."

In the Red Army's hiding place, only the chief of staff and a few junior officers remained to study the matter.

"Now there are only so few of us left, and it seems we have no ability to fight back. Let's each think about what to do."

Gong Jian raised his head. "Chief of Staff, I want to retaliate."

The chief of staff laughed. "What counterattack? We have no tanks, no infantry fighting vehicles."

Gong Jian spoke decisively, "We don't need these. We can break up our forces and use the guerrilla warfare tactics that the instructors used before the War of Resistance Against Japan. Since we have nothing left, we might as well go all in."

"This looks like special operations tactics."

Gong Jian laughed and said, "I came from the Wolf Fang Special Forces Brigade, and there has never been a better time for me than now."

"The Fourth Company still lags behind these Bit-battalion forces... Are you confident?"

Gong Jian paused for a moment, then raised his head. "We won't confront them head-on. If they can behead, so can we..."

He walked to the map and pointed to the large blue dot, "Our ultimate target is only him... Gao Shiwei ZJ!"

"I agree. You will all break into smaller groups and go out to patrol an area of ​​100 kilometers. The Blue Army will be exhausted from dealing with this, and it will also relieve the pressure on other units. That's the decision."

"Gather all the sniper rifles and hand them over to the fourth sharpshooter company."

……

Inside the air-raid shelter, Wang Yanbing paused, "Squad leader..."

Squad Leader Huang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Hand it over. This is a mission carried out by the Sharpshooter Fourth Company."

"But I'm a sniper too."

“But you’re not a sniper in the fourth company, so we’re not authorized to participate in the mission.”

“He has one.” Squad Leader Lao Hei walked in. “The instructor recommended you. Wang Yanbing is coming with us.”

After the last match against He Chenguang, no one dared to question Wang Yanbing's sniping skills anymore.

"Is Wang Yanbing willing?" Old Black, the squad leader, asked with a smile.

"I'm willing!" Wang Yanbing stood up and shouted excitedly.

-

There are several old houses on the mountain, which look like temporary residences of a forest contractor. They are very remote.

Old Hei whispered, "There's no movement."

"Spread out. Lao Hei, come inside with me. The rest of you, keep watch," Gong Jian ordered.

Lao Hei stood up with Gong Jian, both of them lowering their guns, extremely vigilant.

Gong Jian looked around and, finding nothing amiss, politely knocked on the door.

The door opened, revealing the face of an old farmer.

"Hello, fellow villager, we are the People's Liberation Army..." Gong Jian hadn't finished speaking when he noticed the old farmer's expression was off.

Gong Jian suddenly realized what was happening and quickly reached for his gun. The old farmer was pulled away, revealing the dark muzzle of the gun. Fan Tianlei looked at him and laughed, "You little brat, where do you think you're going?"

"I'll fight you to the death!" Old Hei raised the machine gun behind him, ready to fire.

"Put down your weapons!" Gong Jian said.
"Instructor?!" Old Hei exclaimed anxiously.

"Put down your weapons, that's an order!" Gong Jian said calmly.

Old Hei gritted his teeth and put down the machine gun.

Two special forces soldiers came up, pinned him down, and tied him up.

"Instructor!"

The soldiers behind shouted and picked up their rifles.

Gong Jian turned around: "Put down your weapons, put them down!"

Special forces soldiers sprang out from around them and captured them.

"Not bad, you truly deserve to be my student." Fan Tianlei said with a smile.

"Instructor, why don't we resist?" Old Hei asked, unwilling to give up.

"Didn't you see they have hostages?" Gong Jian glanced inside the house. "They're all villagers inside. Shooting them would accidentally hurt them! We are the Red Army, and we must always put the interests of the people first!"

Fan Tianlei counted the captured Red Army soldiers—but he didn't see the person he was looking for.

"What is it? Instructor Fan, who are you looking for?" Gong Jian asked, looking at him.

Fan Tianlei smiled and said, "You know."

"Those three weren't with me," Gong Jian said calmly.

"You're sending new recruits on missions in separate groups?" Fan Tianlei asked him.

"Do you think those three are just new recruits in terms of combat ability?" Gong Jian looked at him arrogantly.

"You little brat, do I even need to ask you?" Fan Tianlei laughed. "I personally selected all three of them. Did you think God would send you three precious soldiers by air?"

"I guessed it, you sent them here to complete their military training." Gong Jian had already figured it out.

“That’s right, I will still take them with me.” Fan Tianlei looked at him.

"Instructor Fan, before you took those three away, they were still soldiers of my Sharpshooter Fourth Company." Gong Jian's face was stern.

“I understand.” Fan Tianlei also became serious. “The exercise is still ongoing, and your sharpshooter fourth company is still fighting, right?”

"You're absolutely right, Instructor Fan. Now you know how tough the Sharpshooter Fourth Company is, right?" Gong Jian said proudly.

"Don't get too cocky. Right now, there are only three stray puppies in the mountains. I'm an old fox." Fan Tianlei laughed. "Take them away. They're dangerous. Keep a close eye on them."

"Yes, sir!" A special forces soldier ran over. "Captain, I'm sorry."

"It's alright, just follow the rules."

Mountain stream.

The Blue Team's convoy is moving forward.

Suddenly, white smoke began to rise from the driver of the lead car.

"There are snipers!"

Snipers from the Red Army began to fire in a coordinated barrage, and the Blue Army soldiers below, now sitting ducks, were billowing with smoke.

"Damn it, set up a mortar and blast them to pieces!"

The Blue Army lieutenant colonel, enraged by the attack, roared furiously.

"Evacuate. They have heavy firepower. Find another location."

The Red Army's sniper team moved instantly.

"Damn it!" the Blue Army lieutenant colonel gritted his teeth. "You're playing it this way, aren't you? You're trying to wage guerrilla warfare against me."

Gong Jian's sniper team continuously harassed the Blue Army's positions.

He Chenguang and Wang Yanbing destroyed a company's worth of tanks.

They specifically targeted the cannon barrel and periscope.

According to the exercise's assessment, if this attack continues, the tanks will instantly lose their mobility.

Fan Tianlei panicked and borrowed military dogs to begin a large-scale search, but they couldn't find anyone, like water sinking into the ocean.

Li Erniu even swaggered back to the Blue Army after capturing a dog.

-

"They just returned the dog like that?" Fan Tianlei was furious with these guys.

If they are walking dogs, then their direction can be predicted.

I didn't expect it to be returned.

Chen Shanming sighed, "Number Five, were these three kids the ones you initially wanted?"

Fan Tianlei turned his head. "We're fighting now, that's a matter for the future. By the way, have you found that Platoon Leader Xu?"

Chen Shanming shook his head. "We've searched everywhere with unmanned reconnaissance aircraft, but we can't find it."

Fan Tianlei felt uneasy. "What exactly does he want to do? He's so badly injured, yet he's running around aimlessly on the battlefield between the Red and Blue Armies."

Chen Shanming gave a wry smile. "I'm afraid he might do something. Do you think he'll come looking for you alone?"

“Then I’ll wait and see what this officer can do! One person can never influence the entire battlefield.”

"What do we do with this Red Army sniper squad now? Even the military dogs can't find them."

Fan Tianlei thought for a moment, "How effective was the anti-sniper infiltration satellite system that the Special Operations Research Center of the Military Region's Science and Technology Department tested?"

"It's alright, but it hasn't been used in actual mountainous and field combat yet. Number Five, this is the apple of the eye of the Special Operations Research Center of the Intelligence Department!"

“Tell them there’s a rare opportunity for real-world practice,” Fan Tianlei said with a smile.

"Are they willing to spend such expensive things?" Chen Shanming asked.

"What's the Ministry of Science and Technology doing researching that stuff? Just for show?" Fan Tianlei glared.

Chen Shanming snapped to attention: "Yes, I understand!"

At a field airfield, a Z-8B transport helicopter slowly lands.

At the airport, the Blue Army flag was waving, and a convoy was already waiting beside them, with Fan Tianlei and Chen Shanming standing below.

The cabin door opened, and a young female lieutenant in 07 camouflage uniform appeared at the cabin entrance.

Fan Tianlei stepped forward and shook hands: "Little Tang, we've been waiting for you!"

Tang Xinyi smiled and saluted: "Good morning, Chief of Staff!"

Another female trainee, Gu Xiaolu, also jumped off the plane and saluted: "Greetings, Commander!"

"Chief of Staff, this is Gu Xiaolu, a new trainee in our research lab," Tang Xinyi introduced.

"Chief of Staff, why is this exercise getting bigger and bigger? I heard you brought all the precious dogs from the military dog ​​base, and now you've dragged me along too!" Tang Xinyi asked with a smile.

"An exercise is essentially a bloodless war. To win, we have to mobilize all our superior resources. To be honest, I've encountered a problem," Fan Tianlei said.

"Oh?" Tang Xinyi smiled. "Even the renowned Chief of Staff of the Wolf Fang Special Operations Brigade, the all-powerful Comrade Fan Tianlei, encounters difficulties?"

“Yes.” Fan Tianlei didn’t mince words. “I encountered a formidable sniper team that even military dogs couldn’t handle. So, I brought you guys over.”

"No way?! A veteran sniper like you can be stumped by them?" Tang Xinyi asked in surprise.

"It's something to be happy about, the younger generation surpasses the older. Let's go, we'll talk on the way." Fan Tianlei turned to leave.

"Hey, you need to help me move these things! I can't carry them myself!" Gu Xiaolu pointed to the helicopter.

"Everything was ready!" Chen Shanming waved his hand, and Miao Lang and several soldiers jumped onto the helicopter to start unloading things.

-

In the dense forest.

Two paths appeared before us.

"We only have one way out now: go into this swamp."

Li Erniu's eyes widened. "Are you out of your mind? If you go in and die, no one will even know."

He Chenguang looked at Wang Yanbing, "What do you think?"

Wang Yanbing shook his head. "It's just an exercise, it shouldn't be like this. I'll walk through the reeds."

Li Erniu gritted his teeth, "Chenguang, it really doesn't have to be this bad. If this were war, I could leave, but this is an exercise, and people will die. Do you know how hot it is tonight? You'll get hypothermia."

He Chenguang remained silent. "I must complete the mission."

He took a deep breath and rushed inside.

Suddenly, pursuers appeared from afar.

Upon seeing this, Wang Yanbing turned and ran.

Li Erniu suddenly shouted, "Yanbing, hurry up and run! The two of them can't escape!"

The instructor has already been captured, which means he won't have to travel the rest of the way.

Wang Yanbing stood at a distance and said, "Okay, I will complete the mission."

After running wildly for ten minutes, he found himself surrounded by reeds taller than a person.

Wang Yanbing then realized that he had lost his way.

Just as I was getting anxious, I suddenly saw a figure standing in the distance.

"My goodness, is this some kind of ghost?"

He crept up to the figure, and the figure slowly turned around.

In the soft glow of the setting sun, Wang Yanbing saw a person in a hospital gown standing there expressionless.

"I am Cao!"

Wang Yanbing was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground. "Platoon leader, what are you doing standing here?"

Feng Yuxiu suddenly smiled. "I just went to the Blue Army command post. There are some tricks to it. If you force your way in, you'll be discovered. So I'm waiting for a bait."

Wang Yanbing paused, then pointed to himself, "Me?"

"Get up and come with me to attack the Blue Army command post."

"Just...the two of us?"

Feng Yuxiu remained calm. "No, I am alone. You are just bait."
