Chapter 253: Ninety-one months of salary!
The war continues, and because of this, every day in the combat unit is tense.

Although Chu An adapted to the life in the combat unit over time, the high-intensity work every day still made his eighteen-year-old eyes look very tired.

All gone.

But there is no way, the combat unit must collect all battlefield intelligence as soon as possible.

Chu An does not allow the staff of the combat unit to slack off, and he himself also always sets an example.

Fortunately, these days eased in June.

After a long period of siege, and with the Vietnamese devils constantly having logistical problems, they could no longer hold on.

The Vietnamese devils on the front line were almost too hungry to walk.

It’s so hard to get some supplies, it’s like celebrating the Chinese New Year, but the Chinese New Year only comes once a year!

After finishing a meal, I don’t know when the next one will be.

To be honest, Chu An admires them very much for being able to persist for so long.

As expected of the Vietnamese devils who have been beaten for decades, they are worthy of the title of the bomb-resistant king in Southeast Asia.

It can persist for so long even by chewing on tree bark and eating grass.

But they are still human beings after all.

Being able to withstand explosions and survive hunger doesn’t mean you are made of iron.

Now they finally couldn't hold on any longer.

On the other side of Pingguan Mountain, the Vietnamese devils began to withdraw.

The troops were originally maintained at two battalions, but according to intelligence, only one company and some artillery in the jungle were left.

The others all ran back.

On the 3rd, when the authenticity of the news was confirmed, everyone in the regiment breathed a sigh of relief.

Chu An even collapsed directly on the chair.

Finally I can take a break.

Although he knew very well that even if the Vietnamese devils withdrew now, they would still be busy for a while.

We have to prepare contingency plans for any possible future attacks by the Vietnamese devils.

But now that the troops have been withdrawn, at least he can sleep comfortably tonight.

Being a combat staff officer is not an easy job, and Chu An has experienced this deeply during this period.

That night, Chu An slept truly soundly. He didn't have to be on duty or on guard duty, and he slept from dawn until the next day.

"Just woke up?" The tent door was opened at the right moment.

Cui Jiying walked in with a smile.

"Isn't it raining?"

Chu An was a little surprised when he saw that he was not wearing a raincoat or holding an umbrella.

You know, there are not many days without rain during this period.

"Haha, maybe God is giving me some favor!" Cui Jiying laughed, and without waiting for Chu An to get up, he walked straight into the tent and sat down.

"You must be exhausted lately!"

"Yes, a little bit!" Chu An sat up with a smile, reached into the pocket of his clothes and took out a cigarette, put one in his mouth, and threw one to Cui Jiying.

Although this person was his old superior when he joined the army, they have become very casual with each other today.

Maybe only Choi Ji-young would occasionally say with emotion: "I was your mentor when you enlisted in the army last year. I never expected that!"

Of course, Chu An actually heard this sentence a lot.

Although Cui Jiying only expressed this sentiment occasionally, Chu An's peers and even the veteran squad leaders from the recruit company would express this sentiment when they saw Chu An again.

More than a year ago, Chu An just joined the army.

And now, Chu An’s monthly salary, which was just adjusted last month, has reached as high as ninety-one yuan.

Administrative level, level 19, corresponds to the treatment of deputy battalion level.

You know, it’s only been a few months!
Before the war, Chu An only had a salary of level 23, which was 52 yuan a month without deducting food expenses.

After the first battle, do four consecutive jumps.

And what about Cui Jiying?
Last year when I was leading a company of new recruits, I was receiving a salary at level 19, but now I am receiving a salary at level 18.

One level higher than Chuan.

"After a few more days of work, I should be able to relax a bit. I hope these Vietnamese devils will really give up!" Cui Jiying also found a comfortable position and lay back. Chu An's tent was just him and the deputy section chief, but now that the deputy section chief was away, he was lying on his bed.

"It's hard to say!" Chu An lit a cigarette, exhaled a puff of smoke, and his face looked unhappy.

"Hmm? Do you think there will be more changes?" Cui Jiying sat up again after lying down.

The agency has been working together for more than a month, and he now trusts Chu An's battlefield intuition.

"Yes!" Chu An nodded and looked at him: "The Vietnamese devils are actually withdrawing now not because they are afraid, but because they have no other choice!"

After a pause, Chu An continued, "If they really wanted to cease fire, they would have negotiated directly with our army, but they didn't. Their subconscious thought was that they didn't want to talk and wanted to continue fighting.

And now that they're withdrawing, I guess they must be going back to build roads!"

Chu An took another puff of his cigarette, and then Chu An said his own speculation: "The roads and bridges they temporarily repaired this time are too fragile. The transportation of supplies can only take limited roads, which can be easily destroyed by us, so their front line can't continue.

I guess once they have repaired the roads and bridges and cleared the mines we left behind, they will definitely come back!"

Cui Jiying stopped talking.

With a cigarette between his lips, he was lost in thought.

Chu An didn't say anything else.

There are some things he can't explain in detail.

But whether the Vietnamese devils will attack again can actually be analyzed based on the current situation.

Just like Chu An said, they really don’t want to fight anymore, so they should just negotiate directly.

If you don't talk, it means you still want to fight.

The obvious thing.

However, Chu An was a little confused about the current situation.

This is a history that is not recorded in history books.

Because of this, he knew very little about the specific circumstances of his previous life.

Although his rebirth has given him a certain degree of foresight, most of the time, such as right now, he can only guess and infer based on the current situation.

"Huh!" Cui Jiying exhaled a puff of thick smoke, and then he lay down again.

Closing his eyes, he said with a tired look, "Forget it, never mind. If we have to fight, then we have to fight. There's no point in overthinking it. If the enemy comes, we will fight them. If the water comes, we will block it with earth. Maybe the troops that will replace us will be here in a couple of days!"

"Haha, that's right!" Chu An forced a smile.

He also wants to switch defense, or rather, no one in the entire C group doesn't want to.

Other troops left the battlefield after the March withdrawal, but they are still fighting today.

Tired of it.

Everyone wants to leave the battlefield, away from the sound of gunfire and the constant threat of life and death. Familiar comrades may never see this ghost place again the next day.

But when can we really change defense?

But this cannot be confirmed.

Anyway, there was no news from the regiment. Chu An also heard other cadres couldn't help but ask the regiment leader and others, but in the end there was no result.

The post-war rectification actions were actually very large.

In particular, the troops that are to be replaced on the battlefield must undergo a major overhaul and rigorous training before they are sent out.

We suffered enough losses in the counterattack.

Many shortcomings have also been exposed. Now that the war is over, the subsequent replacement troops will definitely have to plug these defects before they can be replaced.

No one can tell the exact time.

If it’s fast, we may have news tomorrow, but if it’s slow, we may have to wait another two months.

"Huh!" Chu An took two deep puffs of the cigarette, then threw the cigarette butt into the can next to him.

Chu An got up and went to wash up.

There is no point in thinking too much about these things. He still has to solve the problem of his stomach first.

He just looked at his watch and it was already past eight in the morning.

He didn't even have breakfast, no wonder he felt a little hungry.

Wash up quickly and then go to the kitchen to see if there is anything to eat.

As for the Vietnamese devils, even if they strike back now, he can't not eat!
