If it is said that the sneak attack battle that took place under the Purple Mountain surprised the 18th Division of the Japanese Army, which was responsible for attacking the Purple Mountain. The 1st Brigade of the Teaching Corps, which had rested for more than a day, suddenly broke through to the southeast of Zijin Mountain, which shocked the Japanese army even more.

Even the Japanese Dispatch Army Command wondered if someone would leak their information. Why did the troops just outflank in the direction of Xiaguan and retreat to Jinling City, and the national army defending the city made a plan for a frontal breakthrough very suddenly.

In the face of the strong breakthrough of the 1st Brigade of the Teaching Corps, the Japanese alert troops who tried to intercept were quickly defeated. Seeing this situation, the commander of the 1st Brigade, who served as the pioneer, would not have missed such an opportunity.

"Order the troops, expand the scope of the attack, seize the nearby strategic points, and inform the chief captain that you can break through!"

Gui Tanzhen, who was anxiously waiting for news at the headquarters, received an urgent telegram from the first brigade, and instantly said happily: "Well done!" Order the 2nd Brigade to break through with the headquarters! Follow-up troops, break through in turn according to the order of operations! ”

"Yes, General!"

Gui Shuzhen, who had already packed his things and could set off at any time, soon led the main force of the Second Brigade under his command to break through under the protection of the guard battalion. Seeing this scene, the commanders of the rest of the troops on standby in the city suddenly felt that there was hope for a breakthrough.

Retreating from the front-line battlefield to Jinling City, many battalion commanders could no longer find their direct commanders. When the officers of the teaching corps told them that the troops had been temporarily taken over, the battalion commanders were very surprised.

You can see the letter of appointment presented by the teaching corps, plus someone with a military commander to corroborate it, plus Gui Shuo is really a major general. Even without this letter of appointment personally sent by Lao Jiang, these school officials did not dare to disobey Gui Shuzhen's order.

The defeated troops, which had originally felt helpless, were soon reinstated as combat units at the regimental level. When the regimental commanders returned from the meeting, they told the troops that they were ready to break out at any time, and also informed them when the headquarters would be evacuated.

Although some regiment commanders felt that the retreat sequence of their troops was even further back, these regiment commanders knew in their hearts that whether they could break out of the encirclement this time might really depend on the teaching corps. Anyway, the teaching corps is also the trump card of the national army!

When the supervising officers stationed in the regiments carried the news that the 1st Brigade had successfully opened the retreat route, these regiment commanders were naturally overjoyed. For a time, countless troops who had been assembled and on standby were waiting for the notice of evacuation.

Looking at the troops who were leaving the city one after another, the remaining personnel of the military commander who were still staying in the city said with a little worry: "Director, don't we withdraw yet?" If you don't retreat, when the little devil reacts, I'm afraid that the retreat channel will be blocked. ”

Faced with the inquiries and anxieties of his subordinates, Chen Gongshu shook his head and said: "They can withdraw, we must stay, and even find a way to lurk, don't forget the task assigned to us by the bureau." We're gone, and it's hard to come back! ”

"Director, didn't that Lieutenant Colonel Hu say earlier that it was possible for the little devil to slaughter the city? What if we don't leave and are really caught by the little devils? Besides, the people in the city are desperately trying to escape from the city right now! ”

"The people are the people, don't forget who we are and what we do. When the Japanese army broke through the city, we moved to ** and lurked. Over there, I've prepared enough supplies for us to live for a month. As long as we don't come out, the little devils won't find us! ”

As the head snake of Jinling, the military commander naturally has a way to lurk and hide. In Chen Gongshu's opinion, as long as he dodges the little devil in the first few days of entering the city, when the situation stabilizes, Jinling City will slowly return to normal.

At that time, when they came out of the **, they could quickly blend into the crowd and begin to inquire about the intelligence of the Japanese army in Jinling, and send information about Jinling to Dai Li, who was far away in Wuhan. Finding out information is their task and duty!

The intelligence front may not be as full of gunpowder as the front-line battlefield, but from the day he joined the military command, Chen Gongshu knew the danger of this job. Especially in this situation where the two countries are at war, once their identities are revealed, they will surely die.

What happened in Jinling City, Hu Biao, who was in the Purple Mountain, naturally didn't know. Hearing the fierce gunfire in the distance, Hu Biao could probably guess that there were troops there who were exchanging fire fiercely. As for what troops, it is not known.

Compared with later generations who infiltrated behind enemy lines to carry out special operations, special forces often wore individual communication equipment. However, in the Republic of China, where transportation is basically on walking, and communication is basically on roaring, the speed of battlefield message transmission is indeed too slow.

Being on the battlefield, Hu Biao didn't know the changes in the entire battle situation at all, all he could do was to understand the situation on the battlefield clearly. Then, while preserving itself, inflict as much damage as possible on enemy forces in the same area.

Listening to the explosion behind him, Hu Biao quickly said: "It seems that the little devil is following!" Brothers, refuel, rush to the foot of the Purple Mountain as soon as possible, and meet the troops on the mountain to break through. Minyi, a few of you have laid out tricks along the way, and quickly keep up! ”

"Yes!"

The previously laid mines are more of an early warning measure. Now I see that the thunder is triggered, which means that there is a little devil behind him. In this case, Hu Biao will naturally lay more tricks and mines, so that the pursuers will suffer more.

When Hu Biao and his entourage arrived at the position on the right side of the Purple Mountain, looking at the gunfire coming from the left, Hu Biao quickly said: "Crossbow team, follow me!" Feel the situation first, the others, get ready for battle! ”

"Yes!"

From the gunfire coming from the position on the left, Hu Biao could roughly hear the gunfire of a large number of Mauser rifles, and of course, there was also a large number of Type 38 rifles. From this, it can be concluded that it was the guard company that exchanged fire with the Japanese army.

As for the gunshots coming from the mountain, it was thought that the defenders guarding the Purple Mountain position were exchanging fire with the Japanese attacking troops. Only the right position where Hu Biao and the others were located looked calm.

In order to further find out the situation on the battlefield, Hu Biao led the soldiers with special warfare bows and crossbows on their backs, and soon served as an assault and reconnaissance team, going to the Japanese army position to reconnoiter the enemy's situation. As soon as he had the opportunity, Hu Biao would immediately attack the Japanese army.

With the help of the fire on the Japanese position, Hu Biao soon discovered that not far from them, there was a tent guarded by a large number of Japanese soldiers. Seeing this tent, Hu Biao stretched out his thumb and measured the distance.

The visual distance method is also a combat skill that special combat personnel must learn. Although this kind of calculation is not foolproof. The approximate distance can be calculated through this method to provide a distance reference for subsequent attacks.

"Brothers, do you see that tent in front of you? I had roughly calculated that the tent should be about 600 meters away. Judging from the equipment we carry, only the grenadier can kill with a single hit.

See those little devils in front of you? Wait a minute, you cooperate with me, use the crossbow arrows to shoot those little devils, be sure to kill them with one hit, and don't give the little devils a chance to shout and shoot. Otherwise, we'll have to attack! ”

"Battalion commander, don't worry! The more we use this bow, the more comfortable it will be, to ensure that the arrows are not missing! ”

"Good! As a crossbowman, you have to have this kind of self-confidence. But any accident on the battlefield can happen, and you must not be careless, and you must always ensure calm. The calmer you are, the more accurate the arrows you shoot, remember? ”

"Remember!"

After explaining the order to the soldiers of the crossbow team, Hu Biao called Hu Minyi to his side and asked him to prepare grenadiers and grenades. As soon as the crossbow team is exposed, immediately organize a troop assault and set up grenadiers to carry out a surprise attack in the shortest possible time.

Keeping a hand in everything can also prevent accidents from happening, and you can't avoid danger in time. Let Hu Minyi prepare is also to ensure that the crossbow team is exposed, so that the surprise attack can be carried out as soon as possible and blow up the temporary headquarters of the Japanese army in front.

When Hu Biao and other crossbow team members sneaked into the Japanese guard sentry not far away, the 'whooshing' sound from time to time was constantly harvesting the lives of the little devil sentinels. The crossbow team moved forward, and Hu Minyi and others followed.

When he finally advanced to a position less than 300 meters away from the tent, Hu Biao waved his hand to signal the crossbow team to stop advancing. beckoned Hu Minyi and others to come over, and quickly set up a few grenadiers to carry.

Earlier, from the battlefield, Hu Biao and others captured many Japanese grenadiers, and soon discovered that the Japanese grenadiers also had different models. At this moment, the grenadier canister used by Hu Biao and others can have an effective firing range of 500 meters.

The best range of the grenadier is about 300 meters. At this distance, the fighters of the guard platoon can ensure that the first hit hit the target. It was precisely in order to ensure that the first blow was fatal that Hu Biao chose the launch position within a distance of 300 meters.

When Hu Biao and the others set up the grenadiers, Qin Tianyou and the other guards and platoon soldiers were ready to charge and assault. As soon as the explosion sounded, they would take advantage of the chaos to rush into the Japanese headquarters in front and catch the little devils by surprise.

"Ready! Three, two, one, put! ”

With Hu Biao whispering and counting down three times, ten small grenades were quickly thrown out of the grenadiers. The Japanese soldiers, who were on guard near the tent, soon saw a scene that made their souls scatter.

"Enemy attack! Protect Your Excellency! Fast! Take cover! ”

Unfortunately, when they saw the grenadiers being fired, it was too late to dodge. As for the Japanese captains who stayed in their tents and discussed the battle plan, they also did not have time to make any reaction.

When the ten grenades accurately fell on the roof of the tent and were instantly detonated, this camping tent with a large area instantly turned into a ring of fire and burned rapidly. At this time, Qin Tianyou and the others jumped up and said, "Rush! Kill! ”

With the machine gun in his hand, he opened fire fiercely at the stunned little devil sentry in front of him. The sound of explosions was accompanied by gunfire, instantly breaking the confrontation on the battlefield. The officers and men of the 1st Company of the Guards and the 5th Regiment of the 3rd Brigade and the 5th Regiment who were attacking also realized that reinforcements were coming.

"Brothers, kill! We have reinforcements again, flanking from three sides, the little devil is finished! ”

The battlefield commander shouted such words at the right time to boost morale, which greatly boosted the morale of the troops attacking and breaking through. On the other hand, the devils who were blocking with all their might, and seeing the location of the headquarters being attacked, these devils realized that they were very likely to be surrounded!
