Chapter 58 Location
Tang Ming looked up.
At this time, it was the end of the evening, the red sun of dusk was gradually setting, and the crescent moon of the dark night was dewing new buds, under the dark red vision of the covered ground, facing this huge canyon rock wall, Tang Ming had a faint blessing in his heart
In front of the steep rock wall nearly 100 meters high and hundreds of meters wide, few people can summon any great emotions, except for the insignificant.
On the opposite side of the canyon cliff, there is an equally huge steep and rugged mountain, between the mountain and the rock wall, there is a canyon, the canyon is wide inside and narrow outside, and gradually closes outward, forming a canyon like a cow's horns.
"What a dangerous area, this is really another village"
Just when Tang Ming was in a daze, the second pillar behind him popped out a sentence containing cultural atmosphere, inadvertently showing his temperament as a college student.
What does the latter mean? There seems to be a willow branch village around here."
However, a warrior behind Erzhuzi instantly collapsed his cultural aura with a single sentence.
Two pillars: ····
He glanced back at the questioner.
This is an ordinary company of soldiers, people from the countryside, they don't know a single big character, and they can't even write their own names, but they are a solid warrior and a powerful warrior.
Since the big farm work has given him strong physical fitness, carrying more than 30 kilograms of belongings to hike nearly 80 kilometers of mountain roads, his face is not red or panting, and even in the later part of the journey, he also helped him carry more than half (10 kilograms) of his belongings, because after walking dozens of kilometers on foot, he fell down on the two pillars, and even in the end all his belongings were carried by this soldier with the help of this soldier.
"This is a poem, written by the ancients, is to praise the environment here" Erzhuzi was speechless for a while, and could only say a perfunctory sentence casually.
"You're really good at using it" Tang Ming glanced back at the two pillars that were light and weightless, and then he couldn't help but sigh, "It's hard to imagine that there is such a dangerous place hidden here, and you can't find it if you go a little farther."
They walked all the way, including when they looked down from the top of the mountain, and they couldn't have found it without entering the canyon.
"It's indeed a good place to hide, as long as we set up a few firepower points on the opposite mountain, and then build some solid bunkers a little, unless the devils come to a trial group, don't try to rush in"
Wu An commented on the terrain from the perspective of a commander.
"It's a pity that this place is too remote, and there are many barren mountains around, which is not suitable for cultivation and planting, otherwise it would be good for our group to be stationed here for a long time."
"Let's go, let's go to the cave and have a look" Looking up at the hidden hole, Tang Ming looked expectant.
If he hadn't been told in advance, he wouldn't have been able to find the hole.
······
Late at night.
The conference room of the independent regiment headquarters, in a dilapidated but airtight earthen house.
Grand Master Zhang and Zhang Nuoyan were in a meeting facing the map on the table.
"The first group of people to go to Niuya Valley were the first battalion, the first and second companies, as well as the transport team and the pistol commando team in the regiment, which I led the team."
Zhang Nuoyan slapped the smoke ring spit out by Master Zhang Da on his hand, took a step back and continued.
"The 1st Battalion, 1st and 2nd Companies currently have a total of 525 men, and the main purpose of their trip is to build simple fortifications and build a place to live"
"The convoy of 150 people, carrying 200 mules and horses, transported the necessary food and supplies in batches"
"For the sake of secrecy, we plan to leave early in the morning, so that when we arrive at Niuya Valley, it will be early in the night, so that we can avoid the surrounding sight."
Zhang promised his plan.
"Just bring the supplies over? Where is the best place to store it? ”
Grand Master Zhang expressed his concerns.
Supplies such as food and ammunition have very high requirements for the storage environment, which not only needs to be moisture and waterproof, but also suitable for transportation, and can also avoid insects and animals.
"Wu An and Tang Ming have already gone to investigate first, and that cave is simply an excellent storage place."
Then he pointed to the hand-drawn map on the table.
"This is a map of the surrounding area of the cave drawn by Tang Ming, the inner layer of this cave is very large, enough to hide thousands of people, and the environment is very dry, very suitable for storing food and ammunition and other materials, but the road up is very narrow, and the pack will not go immediately, so you can only rely on manpower"
Without waiting for Grand Master Zhang to frown, Zhang Nuoyan then continued.
"So I asked the 12th Company of the 1st Battalion to expand this rock wall road here to make it easier to transport."
Zhang then pointed to a narrow passage on the map.
"And you look here, this is the so-called horn of Niuya Valley, Niuya Valley is surrounded by rugged mountains, it is extremely difficult to climb up, this is the only entrance and exit of Niuya Valley, I plan to build a few bunkers around here, and then arrange a few permanent fire points at the commanding heights of the top around this horn, and then arrange a few heavy machine guns, no matter how many devils come at that time, don't think about coming in"
"This place is easy to defend and difficult to attack"
"These two commanding heights have to be arranged on the top of a few mortars, the mortars have a long range and great power, and the back slope here faces the Niuya Valley, as long as you dig a trench on the back slope, the devil's mountain artillery will not want to hit here, the mortars are arranged here very safely."
"And then there is the foot of this mountain, no matter how difficult the mountain road is, it is just difficult, the devil can still come up as long as he wants, even if we can drive away the devil through firepower, but we can't prevent it at night, the devil's night combat ability is not covered, so we buried those mines here"
In a few words, Grand Master Zhang showed his excellent ability to arrange troops.
"Yes, the foot of the mountain has to strengthen the defense, the devil's night combat ability is really powerful" Zhang Nuoyan nodded.
The three decisive means of the Japanese army, the spur group charge bayonet, the veteran's precision rifle grenadier mobile shooting, and the night battle is unparalleled.
Although the Eighth Route Army is also an expert in night warfare, it has to admit that there is still a gap compared with the devils. After all, the devils are well-equipped, and night combat is also a key training item for the Japanese army.
Of course, there is also a point that because of lack of nutrition, many soldiers of the Eighth Route Army suffer from night blindness and cannot fight at night.
In the recent battles, many main regiments tried to sneak attack the devils at night, but the sneak attack was successful, but they were beaten hard by the ghosts who reacted to the night battle and suffered a big loss, which also made the main regiments of the Eighth Route Army, which used to rely on night battles to bully other warlords, very uncomfortable.
"Start the mortar, Luo Yun's brother sent the news in the morning, let us send people to transport supplies, and the focus is to bring more mules and horses"
Zhang Lianshun said suddenly.
"Bring more mules and horses?" Grand Master Zhang repeated this sentence in surprise, and then he suddenly asked.
"By the way, the correspondents of the two division headquarters decided to stay in the regiment a little longer, right?"
"Well, of course," Zhang Nuoyan smiled and nodded.
Faced with the temptation to eat canned meat and beef, and in a reasonable form, it was inevitable that the two correspondents would stay.
"Leave them a few more, and when the supplies for the Luo Yun brothers arrive, let them report this information to the division headquarters," said Commander Zhang.
"Huh?" Hearing this, Zhang Nuoyan raised his head and looked at his own head in front of him with suspicious eyes, and then suddenly his tone changed, with a little coldness in his tone.
"Who are you?"
"What happened to my captain?"
