Chapter 457 The Threat Remains

"I think so! Comrade Commander!" The political commissar's face was bitter.

This was the first time they were hit by their own artillery on their own soil! And they finally tasted the power of 130mm artillery, although it was not the power they wanted to taste.

"Will they use these shells to attack other places of ours again? You quickly organize the anti-artillery. I will now notify other friendly neighboring troops to cooperate with you in the search. This kind of artillery is simply not something that a small-scale force can operate. This means that the enemy is likely to be a commando team of ten to fifteen people!" The deputy commander hung up the phone after he finished speaking, and immediately revealed the news to the surrounding friendly neighboring troops again.

At this moment, all the Russian troops fell into a panic. After all, they knew the power of the M46 artillery.

Finding the lost artillery and shells became the focus of the entire military region.

When they arrived at the position where Zhao Cheng was firing, they felt that their three views might need improvement.

Aside from the flattened ground and the marks left by the artillery, there were no other clues to the entire position. Any traces of a tractor? None.

No trace of ammunition boxes? No trace of them. Not even the shell casings from the firing. Not even the footprints of the person who fired the gun!

Zhao Cheng cleaned up all these things and cleared up all the clues! Zhao Cheng had shoveled the ground. Even if he brought a military dog, he would have to think about it. The most important thing was that there was nothing left at the scene.

"What's going on? Why are there no other clues except these two hoe marks?" The leading officer was a lieutenant colonel. Looking at the clean ground, he couldn't help but ask a soul-searching question!

"Lieutenant Colonel, could it be that they have finished their operation and cleared all the land?" said a smart man.

"Don't I know that they shoveled the ground? I'm asking where the shoveled ground went? Can they throw it into the sky?" The lieutenant colonel turned around and glared at the soldier who spoke.

But when he saw the other soldiers looking up at the sky, the lieutenant colonel lost his temper instantly.

"Forget it, let's destroy it! Or I should report the truth and give the higher-ups a headache," the lieutenant colonel complained in his heart.

After receiving the lieutenant colonel's report, the military district immediately sensed a surge of hostility! Who was this person? They even cleared away a layer of the ground after the operation. What was their purpose?

What's wrong with you leaving us some clues? Even if you leave a trace of American soldiers, that would be fine? At least give us some direction? What's that?

Will the devil come to seek revenge? The cannons vanished, the shells vanished. Now even the land has vanished? Are we being punished by God?

However, before the deputy commander could figure it out, the loss report of the Eighth Division was also reported. The deputy commander looked at the contents of the report and felt his heart bleeding.

The total loss of personnel was 1865 casualties. Among the heavy equipment losses, one tank was destroyed, and three were seriously damaged and needed major repairs. Five armored vehicles were destroyed and eight were damaged. Twelve artillery pieces, including self-propelled artillery pieces, were lost, including four heavy artillery pieces, including the lost one. Other property losses were not included!

The main reason for the heavy casualties was that the troops were gathering when the camp was bombarded, and the second round of shelling on the division headquarters also caused a large number of casualties.

Holding this thin piece of paper, the deputy commander felt very heavy in his heart. Without even seeing the enemy, they suffered such a loss, which made their military world No. 1 a joke!

Could this enemy truly belong to that great Eastern nation? How could they possibly possess such combat effectiveness? They had quietly stolen a cannon and a large quantity of ammunition, and then launched a crossfire attack on their troops. Most importantly, the damage caused by this crossfire was truly devastating! How would the Far Eastern Military Region explain this to Moscow?

"What's going on? Why did such a serious thing happen?" Just as the deputy commander was thinking about how to report, the commander of the Far East Military Region appeared directly in the operations room!

"Comrade Commander, you're back?" When the deputy commander saw that his backbone had returned, he was completely relieved.

"I just came back and heard that we suffered huge losses again? What's going on?" asked the commander with a grim expression.

So the deputy commander quickly told the King of the Far East what he had learned.

"You mean, this group of people stole our artillery and artillery shells, and then hit our Eighth Division headquarters and barracks from 20 kilometers away, even destroying the ammunition depot and fuel depot?" The commander said a little incredulously.

"Yes, Comrade Commander, and we have found the suspected artillery position, it is indeed twenty kilometers away!" the deputy commander said quickly.

"What do you mean by suspected?" the commander asked in confusion.

"Because a layer of the soil at that position was removed, we didn't find any clues!" The deputy commander's face was full of shame.

The commander sat down instead, rubbing his chin. "Are you sure how many people were responsible?" the commander suddenly asked.

"Report, there is no way to confirm it, but we estimate that it takes ten to fifteen people! Because it takes so many people to operate the 130 heavy artillery! The most bizarre thing is that we did not find the movement track of the tractor. After the shelling was over, we also sent people to check the ground within ten kilometers. But there is no clue!" The deputy commander's face became ugly again.

"You mean, this artillery piece and the remaining shells are all missing? The artillery crew is also missing! Even the position land is missing? Is that right? I really want to believe this investigation result, but how can you let me believe it? If we report this situation to Moscow, will we also end up on the defendant's chair in the military court like the commander of the Seventh Regiment?" The commander asked calmly.

"Comrade Commander, I also think this reason is absurd, but is there really no other explanation? We really can't find any clues!" said the deputy commander dejectedly.

"Could it be that it was done on the other side of the ocean? Their helicopters can achieve this level, right?" said the commander.

"But once the helicopter enters our country, it will be immediately detected by our radar, right? This is simply impossible?" The deputy commander was unwilling to believe the commander's words.

"Don't forget, helicopters can penetrate at low altitude!" said the commander.

"But we didn't find any clues about the helicopter?" said the deputy commander sadly.
