Crossing North Korea, I became a US soldier, and my opponent was my grandfather.

Being slandered by the regiment leader Lewis, Qiao Youzhi had an innocent look on his face and said in his heart: It's nothing for me. If I wanted to, I could shoot you in the back anytime. Why would I accuse you of anything?

Qiao Youzhi patiently explained: "You misunderstood. The lieutenant general reprimanded you for two reasons. One is that the British put pressure on him, so he had to pretend. You should understand this..."

Lewis nodded: “I understand, what about the second reason?”

"The second is that this retreat goes against the will of the commander. The commander has been studying tactics to turn defeat into victory. The biggest feature of this tactic is that it requires the troops to maintain a certain degree of adhesion with the enemy, that is, to stick as close as possible. And you, I can't blame you entirely. The retreat was agreed upon by all our officers. It's really not fair to let you take the responsibility alone now. I plan to explain this problem to the commander in person."

Before Qiao Youzhi finished speaking, Lewis stretched out his hand and apologized to him: “George, I misunderstood you, I apologize to you.”

Qiao Youzhi looked guilty: "We should thank you."

A few words cleared up all grudges.

When it comes to dealing with people and dealing with human relationships, Qiao Youzhi is worth ten Lewises.

In order to appease the British, Lieutenant General Qi Wei ordered Lewis's regiment to advance to its previous position and maintain contact with the Chinese army.

Qi Wei was also a pragmatic commander. Knowing that Lewis' troops lacked reconnaissance personnel, he sent an Australian reconnaissance battalion.

Robert, the commander of the Australian reconnaissance battalion, once spent two months in the jungle of the South Pacific, leading his men to fight face to face with Japanese soldiers with bayonets, and had rich close combat capabilities.

Lieutenant Colonel Robert was almost forty years old, a few years older than Captain Lewis, and had to salute when he saw Lewis.

Qiao Youzhi looked at Robert, who was nearly 1.9 meters tall and had a fierce look. He wondered if it would be easy for such a big man to hide in the jungle.

As per custom, the two armies held a party, had a good sleep and then rushed to the front line.

The Australian reconnaissance battalion was a reconnaissance unit, so they naturally went ahead. When they arrived at the abandoned US military camp, it was a mess everywhere. Their way of dealing with it was also unique. They set it on fire. Looking at the raging fire, the officers and soldiers of the Australian reconnaissance battalion let out strange screams.

When the US troops arrived, the military camp had been burned to a white ground, with smoke still coming out of some places.

Captain Lewis knew that explosives had been buried in some places, so he ordered the soldiers to stop advancing.

Robert from the Australian Reconnaissance Battalion looked at him with disdain: How could something like this conquer half the world?

Lieutenant Colonel Robert had to start the jeep and run to the back to discuss the next action plan with Lewis. In the car, he and the captain of Company A, Emb, mocked the American army: "This young Colonel Lewis, his courage is wrapped in the fat on his body."

Embu was proud: "These cowboys may only know how to herd cattle."

When Robert and Lewis first met, before he spoke, Lewis spoke first: "Lieutenant Colonel, before we left, we buried explosives and mines in the camp. This is the map of the explosives. You burned those tents, but you have to be careful. We are still going to dig out the explosives. You burned them all, and many of the buried sites are lost."

Lieutenant Colonel Robert's mind went blank. He snatched the map, jumped on the jeep and ran back. When he was almost there, he raised his submachine gun and fired a burst of bullets into the air.

The soldiers of the Australian reconnaissance battalion were preparing to go around the camp, but when they heard the gunshots they immediately went into combat mode and stared around vigilantly.

Robert stepped on the brakes to the bottom, and the jeep lurched to a stop. He called the officers and ordered them to search the American camp carefully.

The Australian reconnaissance battalion looked down on the Americans even more: What can these young masters do?

Robert could have ignored the matter and left with his men, but he had to let the Americans see their fighting power and execution capabilities.

The American troops also came up. Jefferson led a team of American troops to prepare to clear the mines and dig out the explosives. If they were not dug out, it would be unfair if someone accidentally walked in at night and was killed by the explosion.

A soldier from the Australian reconnaissance camp yelled, and everyone was too scared to move. The soldier stood up, his hands covered with shit. The shit had been frozen into lumps of ice over the past two days, and the Australian reconnaissance camp set a fire to thaw it, so they could grab a handful.

The Australian soldier cursed and kicked randomly. Suddenly there was an explosion and he kicked a landmine, and half of one of his legs was lost.

Lieutenant Colonel Robert was furious. Before he saw the enemy, one of his soldiers was blown up by his ally. He roared at the American army that was more of a hindrance than an aid: Whose allies are you anyway?

Lewis spread his hands and said, "Dear Lieutenant Colonel, I have already told you that there is a mine here. Your soldiers went crazy and stepped on it."

Robert knew that this matter could not be explained, so he led his soldiers to find a new place to set up camp.

The next day, Robert did not tell Lewis and acted on his own.

They crossed the Suoyaoling Mountain and saw traces of US bombing at the Suoyaoling Mountain. Looking at the blackened stones, they lamented the US military's wealth and power.

Coming down from Suoyaoling, we arrived at the former position of the Northern Army.

Robert and Emb carefully observed the Northern Army's fortifications and found them to be of very high quality. Fortunately they had evacuated, as they would still be a tough nut to crack if a real fight broke out.

Captain Emb's face was grim: "Easterners are fighting to the death. The Northern Army's trenches are configured like this to prepare for a fight to the death."

Robert didn't say anything, but glanced ahead with cold eyes, as if there were enemies there.

Embu went on to say, "They can scare the Americans with this, but not us. We have conquered the South Pacific and the tropical rain forests. The Japanese soldiers were extremely brutal, but we also defeated them. There is no enemy in this world that our Kangaroo Army is afraid of. It's just that the weather on this peninsula is too cold."

The surrounding soldiers laughed when they heard this. The company commander spoke from their hearts: the soldiers of the Australian reconnaissance battalion were not afraid of fighting, but the weather on the peninsula made them uncomfortable.

Lieutenant Colonel Robert, who had been silent the whole time, spoke, his words colder than the weather: "You can't stand the weather, but the Chinese can. In this case, whoever wins will have a greater chance."

Enbu and the other officers and soldiers shut their mouths, and the battalion commander's words struck them in the heart.

The Australian reconnaissance battalion formed a marching team, with one company in the front and the other two on the left and right, one kilometer apart, forming a large triangle.

Robert led his men in the front. A few days ago, he had scouted this area by helicopter, including the battlefield where the British army was annihilated. However, he could not find anything from the air.

The peninsula was covered with snow and the temperature was low, so the trees were frozen and helpless.

How did the Chinese and the Northern Army stay in the snow?

He didn't know that most of the Chinese Army's soldiers came from cold regions, had experience living in the wild, and knew how to build igloos.

Create a space that can accommodate two or three people in the thick snow. If conditions permit, light a small hand warmer. The temperature will melt the snow inside the igloo and gradually form a layer of ice, which can effectively block the wind outside and also play a certain role in keeping warm. Lay a blanket and hold the hand warmer, which is definitely better than lying in the snow.

Since the onset of severe frostbite, building snow houses has become a compulsory course for Chinese Army soldiers, especially reconnaissance troops, who have almost become one with the snowfield.

Not to mention aerial reconnaissance, it might not be possible to detect it even if you get close.

Lieutenant Colonel Robert warned the soldiers around him to be careful. Although he was not sure whether there were any Chinese people nearby, it was not wrong to be careful.

One day, Lieutenant Colonel Robert launched an operation in an area of ​​more than ten kilometers. They were a reconnaissance battalion, but they did not detect anything.

They returned home when the sun was setting. Although they were brave, they did not dare to stay overnight as the night belonged to the Chinese army.

When retreating to Suoyaoling, Robert left two platoons, led by Captain Emb, to stay here on guard.

Robert specifically sent a telegram to Lewis to remind him not to bomb Suoyaoling.

All night, Enbu, who was guarding Suoyaoling, did not sleep, and Robert in the rear did not sleep either. They ordered the soldiers of Company A to stay fully armed and to go to support immediately if there was any situation in Suoyaoling.

After a night of fear and with nothing happening, Robert yawned and prepared to take a nap.

Like Captain Emb, he stretched himself and lay down when the day broke. Before he fell asleep, the sentry came and said, "Captain, we have found something."

Enbu jumped up: "What's going on?"

"Enemy situation."
