At ten o'clock in the evening, two kilometers west of Ruijin City, Niuliao Mountain. Pen Γ— fun Γ— Pavilion www. biquge。 ο½‰ο½Žο½†ο½

On the open ground at the southern foot of Niuliao Mountain, the officers and men of the 3rd Instructor Regiment and the 2nd Company of the Guard Battalion were quietly eating dry food, and hundreds of local people and merchants, together with dozens of pack horses carrying goods, were surrounded in the woods behind the open field.

These people and businessmen were encountered by the troops after entering the 10-kilometer range of Ruijin, and had to be temporarily detained in order to prevent leakage.

On the mountainside to the north, Wang Huchen, chief of staff of the instructor, Duan Xuan, commander of the third regiment, and other chief officers have been closely observing Ruijin City, which is lit up, and Tian Antai, the commander of the guard battalion in charge of investigation, gave everyone a detailed briefing:

"Ruijin City is not big, less than 800 meters from north to south, about 600 meters wide from east to west, the city wall is about five meters high, mottled and old, it has been hit by floods many times in the past hundred years, the city walls on the east and north sides are seriously damaged, and many collapsed places are only sealed with mud and stones, and the height is less than four meters."

"There is a fifteen-meter-wide exit on the wall on the west side of the north gate, which is connected to the large number of houses outside the north gate."

"Outside the west gate, that is, directly in front of us, is the new town of Ruijin, which has been developed for more than 20 years, with only three checkpoints, no city walls, and more than 600 households on both sides of the north and south streets until the river bank in the south, accounting for almost one-third of the entire Ruijin."

"According to the report of the reconnaissance detachment and the explanation of the merchants, the west gate is usually not closed, and it can be passed 24 hours a day."

Duan Xuan was greatly excited: "In this way, we don't need to attack the fortifications!" ”

Tian Antai nodded and smiled: "That's right, as long as you quietly get rid of the three checkpoints in the west of the city, you can smoothly rush into the west gate, the military camp of the security regiment is in the south gate, and there are only more than 100 regiments left behind." ”

"The passage on the west side of the north gate that is more than ten meters wide can also be used, you only need to touch it, pick up the submachine gun and shoot with a single shot, you can eliminate a handful of defenders, and then a charge can kill the county government compound in the city."

"As long as these two places are captured, the entire Ruijin City will be taken."

Duan Xuan turned to Wang Huchen with excitement on his face: "Chief of Staff, give an order." ”

Wang Huchen nodded: "Let the brothers rest for another two hours, and launch an attack at twelve o'clock at midnight today." ”

"Antai led the spy company to kill the three checkpoints outside the west gate, Duan Xuan led a battalion to go around the north of the city, and killed from the passage outside the north gate, regardless of it, directly occupied the county government compound, and then divided two companies to attack the east gate and occupy the east ferry port of the city."

"Du Yong led the three battalions to go around to the south of the city, and blocked all the wharves, roads, and south gates in the south to prevent the rich and large landowners in the city from escaping from the south."

"Shou Nian led the second battalion to enter from the west gate and occupy the security regiment camp inside the south gate as quickly as possible."

"I led the guard company and the police communication company to control the urban area outside the west gate, and disarm the local tyrants and inferior gentry."

"This ...... You only have two companies, is it enough? Duan Xuan asked with some concern.

"There shouldn't be any problem!"

Wang Huchen pondered for a moment, shook his head, and then his gaze became incomparably deep and sharp: "Since we don't have many troops, only two thousand and one thousand people in total, it is difficult to blockade the entire Ruijin City in a short period of time, so this battle must be fought more resolutely and decisively!" ”

"In battle, we must not be benevolent to women, those who resist will not be forgiven, those who do not obey orders and try to flee will be killed, and those who dare to take up arms and do not listen to dissuasion, regardless of the army or civilian, will be killed immediately!"

"Yes!"

The brothers answered in unison, and their hearts were awe-struck. In everyone's memory, Chief of Staff Wang Huchen was more principled than anyone else, and he had never given such a resolute order.

……

……

At 11:50 p.m., more than 100 people and businessmen who had been detained, along with goods and horses, were all released, and one of the officers and men of a platoon guarding them quickly evacuated and rushed back to their own company.

More than 100 people and businessmen who were released looked at each other in shock, and before they could understand what was going on, more than 2,000 officers and soldiers on the open ground had already driven to Ruijin City one after another.

At the west exit of East and West Avenue in Xincheng District, two security guards on duty leaned against the porch pillars behind the rejection horses and smoked, talking in a low voice without saying a word, two Hanyang rifles leaned against the brick wall on the side, and two white lanterns hung high above the porch, emitting a dim light.

The two sharp soldiers of the spy company quietly touched the corner behind the guard's side, and after a brief observation, they flashed out, and before the two guards could react, the sharp bayonet had already pierced the necks of the two men.

The officers and men of the 2nd Battalion, who were hiding in the shadow of the houses, immediately rushed to the rejection horse, and the two company commanders who ran in front worked together to throw the five-meter-long rejection horse into the ditch on the side of the road. Zhang Shounian, the political commissar of the Third Regiment, brandished a Colt pistol and kept urging: "Quick! Keep up! Regardless of the sides, go straight to the West Gate! ”

The two guards at the south and north corners of the new city were quite lucky, the brothers of the spy company did not kill them with knives after they were overturned, and several guards and more than a dozen regiments awakened in the checkpoints were taken under centralized supervision, and bursts of gunfire soon rang out at the passage on the west side of the north gate.

Duan Xuan, the commander of the third regiment, who took the lead, raised the flower machine gun, shot three guards with a shuttle, and then rushed to the door of the barracks behind the three guards, kicked open the hidden door and rushed in, and together with the guards who followed closely, picked up the flower machine gun, and beat the more than ten security regiments who had just woken up to blood.

……

……

"Run with me! All guns up, follow meβ€”"

Zhao Tieliang, the commander of the first battalion without half of his right palm, held Colt in his left hand, and his strong body of 1.85 meters ran faster than anyone else, and the officers and men of the battalion followed by all picked up rifles, flower machine guns, and Czech light machine guns, and ran wildly, with the muzzle of the gun pointed diagonally upward.

The formation of the charge was very neat, the speed and rhythm were well maintained, and under the leadership of Zhao Tieliang, it quickly crossed Xuefu Road and rushed to the intersection in front.

"Left and right separated, the assault team stepped forward, machine gun cover, hit!"

Zhao Tieliang flew under the high wall on the west side of the county office, and the commandos' four light machine guns opened fire in unison.

"Dada-da-"

Fierce tongues of fire erupted, beating the screams of more than a dozen puppet policemen gathered in front of the county yamen, and then the brothers of the second company threw more than 100 grenades into the courtyard behind the high wall amid the roar of the company commander.

"Boom-"

The loud explosion shattered the tiles on the high wall.

After throwing the grenades, the brothers did not care about the falling bricks and rubble, and ran to the bottom of the high wall in groups of twos, clasped their hands, and squatted down on their horses.

The rest of the brothers quickly put their weapons on their backs, and one by one they took steps towards the high wall, and the last step was to step on the pedal composed of four large hands with unmistakable accuracy, and as the two brothers worked together to support them, they easily climbed the two-meter-high wall and jumped into the courtyard.

The brothers of the third company quickly rushed through the corpse-strewn county gate, chased the battalion commander Zhao Tieliang and more than a dozen commandos, and killed in the direction of the east gate. (To be continued.) )
