Chapter 873 Busy San'er and Lao Maozi

For the enemies on the north bank of the river, seeing the encirclement shrinking every hour, they had thought about escaping.

However, they did not have the courage to cross the river and flee south in an organized manner. This is also a very interesting thing. They wanted to escape, but before the order was given, they could only run away in scattered groups. In this case, they naturally could not organize the necessary supplies and ships for escape.

It's not that they weren't repairing the bridge, but the fact that two sections of the bridge were blown off made them look frightened.

There are still many broken limbs and arms in the river. Due to the short time and low temperature, these broken limbs and arms have not yet developed into giants and are still quietly sinking in the river. Only in the shallow water area and the sandbar under the bridge piers can some pale white dots be seen scattered among them.

This reminds them all the time that bombs may fall from the sky.

Moreover, a small number of them had already crossed the river when we blew up the Duanhuikou Bridge that cut off the north-south direction of the river. On the other side of the river, they watched the large number of fleeing enemies crowding at the broken Huikou Bridge. The enemies who were sent into the sky by our two laser-guided bombs were the first to escape, and naturally they had already fled to this town.

With their propaganda, the enemy dared not crowd at the bridgehead and rush to repair the bridge, which was already difficult to repair.

After all, the laser-guided bomb that these people were hit by was dropped from a farther distance, which means that they did not hear any sound of aircraft before the bridgehead had already been bombed.

This formed a terrifying legend in the Zangsan Unit, that the Dongda people could suddenly bomb the place where their troops assembled from thousands of miles away.

Many people did not believe this almost ridiculous statement. After all, they were living well in the barracks and did not see the bomb dropped by the University of East China.

But asking them to go to the bridgehead to repair the bridge is absolutely impossible. They won’t go!

At this time, new rumors began to ferment among the enemies who were gradually surrounded.

Some of the Zangsan soldiers who escaped back are passing on their experience to their fellow tribesmen.

The class and ethnic divisions in Zangsan were so severe that they had to resort to the method of mixing sand to control the troops. In a battalion, if one company wore bulletproof headscarves, then there must be one or more companies that did not, and they monitored and restrained each other.

In this situation, when the war breaks out, there are many cases where our friendly forces are in danger while we remain unmoved.

However, they are more caring and willing to share with their own kind.

"Remember, when the Dong people ask you to do something, the first time they give you conditions will definitely be the most generous. You just need to do it according to their instructions and don't do anything else." A Zang San who was let go by us was talking to his colleagues with lingering fear.

"Yes, Shihe bless you, you'd better do as they say." Although the other person was not released, Zang San, who had witnessed what happened to his people while he was escaping and hiding, quickly agreed.

“What happens if we don’t do what they ask?”

"They'll blow you up with cannonballs, and believe me, they'll have as many cannonballs as the sand in a wet river, and every man can fire one."

"Are you talking about the grenade?"

"No, no, no, don't insult my intelligence. A grenade can never be thrown that far."

"Yeah, that's not a grenade."

Some people began to believe what they said: "But what should I do if I don't understand what they are saying?"

"It doesn't matter. You don't have to understand what they are saying. When you hear them shouting at you, just drop your gun and raise your hands." A dirty soldier who was released shared his experience with his companions with fear.

"Whatever they say?"

"Yes, no matter what they say. Don't worry, they only want to kill or capture us, but they don't want to kill us after capturing us. We are the best example."

"This is a cowardly surrender!"

"No, I'm just telling you how to save your life if you lose the battle. It's up to you whether you want to fight, but at least I want to bring hope of survival to my people." A Zang San retorted righteously.

"Singer, it never hurts to listen." Well, another Singer.

At this time, this incident caused some waves at Citi and White Bear.

Since we released the statement on the morning of the 21st, they have actually received the news, but they need some time to digest it and organize people to discuss countermeasures.

Moreover, for them, the pirates at sea were more important at this time, which was their lifeline. On the evening of the 21st, the Russians finally organized the relevant personnel who had no work connection with the cigar missile crisis and could get away to discuss the development and countermeasures of this matter.

For the Russians, this incident was inevitable, but they did not expect it to happen at this time, and what they did not expect was that the incident would develop so quickly.

"Comrades from the South have really taken action. Damn it, they actually chose this moment!"

"This is not surprising. Comrade Nan Fang is not a fool. If it were you or me, we would also take action at this time. Without our and Citi's interference, they can better achieve their goals."

The Russians know very well that whether or not there is intervention only makes a difference in the degree of achievement of the goal, but it does not affect our ability to achieve this goal.

"Don't you realize? When they published that profound and obscure ancient southern saying in the newspaper, we should have realized that they could no longer hold back." Another old Russian, who probably had considerable work experience on our side, expressed his own judgment.

"But it all happened too fast, Davari. I'm not saying the war happened too fast, but the progress of the war was really too fast. They completely wiped out an elite brigade of the Sindhu people in one day, and they wiped out an elite mountain brigade in the mountains. My God, even if there were 3000 pigs, it would be difficult to catch them all in one day."

"There is nothing surprising about this. Even in the absence of siege weapons, we were able to capture a large enemy city that was well-equipped, heavily fortified and well-operated within 29 hours." It was still the old Russian who seemed to be somewhat of an "expert in the South". This old Russian was probably well versed in our war history.

All the Russians fell silent. After the great sacrifice of S2, they knew what this meant. Indeed, the comrades in the South had this ability.

"But now it seems that their appetite is very big. The Sindhu people asked us for help. They have surrounded another brigade of their troops, and this brigade is in extreme danger."

“What do the Sindhu people want to do?”

"They want us to put pressure on our southern comrades to stop the attack and let their troops go." An old Russian shrugged, as if he knew that this request was a fantasy.

"Ha, they really dare to think that. Do they think that the world can really achieve all wishes just by imagination?" An old Russian laughed.

"Dawali, don't just laugh, this is a serious diplomatic matter." An old Russian reminded, and then he laughed too.

"Don't laugh. We can't give up the Sindhu people. They are an important part of our complete strategy."

"But I haven't figured out how the Sindhu people were surrounded by our southern comrades in just one day and a half in the area they had been operating for a long time. For ordinary people, they don't even have the physical strength to surround them with bare hands, let alone carrying weapons." The old Russian despised Zang San's ability.

"Strictly speaking, the southern comrades only surrounded them from three sides from a distance. In fact, the troops have not yet come into direct contact, if we exclude the sporadic remnants that they eliminated along the way."

"Three sides?"

"Yes, on three sides. The Sindhu people only told us that there was a river to the south of their unit, and the only bridge over the river was destroyed by a nighttime air raid by the southerners. They didn't even see the enemy's planes."

This incident made all the Russians alert.

"When did the southern comrades acquire the ability to destroy a strong and tightly defended city with air strikes at shallow depth in the enemy's territory?"

Although the bridge looks large, it is actually just a small line when viewed from the sky. Moreover, the ground is heavily defended within the Sindhu people's range. Even if the Sindhu Air Force cannot defend it, they want to destroy it with an air strike. The Russians are very clear that this is something that the Southern comrades should not be able to do.

From a probabilistic point of view, to put it bluntly, the comrades in the South do not have enough bombers, even if all the comrades in the whole country were added together.

The Southerners had very few bombers that could fly to that place and deploy them. As the provider of our medium and heavy bombers in our early days, the Russians were very clear about the number and performance of our bombers.

"I don't know how they did it, but it proves one thing: it's nighttime and long-distance, and it's not just a threat to the Sindhu people, but to some extent, it's a threat to us as well."

This is why all the Russians are horrified. The Russians’ automated air defense system is not bad, but it is hard to say how good it is.

“What was the reaction of the Sindhu people?”

"Ask us for military aid and aircraft, and start preparing for national mobilization. Don't forget how far away New Delhi is from the airport we discovered and notified the Sindhu people not long ago."

"The fighting power of the southerners is really terrifying. Maybe they have some new weapons. Don't forget that their technological development in some areas is amazing."

On October 10th, many new weapons were used, but the Russians didn’t know about it either.

"Then what should we do? Don't forget, we are still in a standoff with the Citigroup at sea and we can't spare any effort."
