Halfway up the mountainside of the steep and rugged cold wind hunting, Gu Changfeng, who was sweating profusely and breathing heavily, lifted a stone weighing nearly two hundred catties from the edge of the high ridge, a pair of strong arms protruded from the force, he snorted, half turned in place, and placed the big stone firmly under the high ridge, and a corporal with a twenty-five kilogram explosive bag immediately raised his foot and stepped on the stone, and successfully stepped on the high hurdle, and did not turn back to Gu Changfeng to leave a sentence: Thank you, second brother!

The brothers of the four battalions who followed closely followed stepped on this stepping stone slab and made great efforts to climb the high hill. As far as the eye can see, the long line of more than 500 people stretches for more than two kilometers, and the team in front has already detoured to the north side of the stone wall like a knife and axe, and the rear team is still under the winding mountain road, Gu Changfeng hurriedly strode to catch up when he saw this.

"Tiger head, about to go around to the front, three or four hundred meters down the mountain is the enemy's position, our position is about 1.7 kilometers away from the enemy position in the pass in the northern section of the narrow road, and about 2.4 kilometers away from the southern pass, among them, the middle section of the 600-meter mountain beam can not go up, can only be divided into the north and south ends to rest and wait." Twenty-seven-year-old instructor Lu Cambridge reported in a low voice.

Gu Changfeng put down the binoculars and exhaled a long breath: "Fortunately, I finally arrived half an hour early, and the boss still has a high vision, so I asked my battalion to receive explosives in advance this morning, and ordered our battalion to dive into the depths of the mountains in batches without waiting for the division headquarters to make a decision, otherwise we won't be able to catch up even if we put on our wings...... By the way, how are they doing over there? ”

"It's in place, and the terrain on their side is relatively flat than on this side, but most of the brothers are soaking wet, and if they don't attack sooner, I'm afraid they'll freeze to death."

The tall and thin Lu Cambridge looked at the gradually darkening western sky, and his expression was very worried.

Gu Changfeng stretched out his hand, caught the falling snowflakes and said with a smile: "It's okay, just hold on for another three and a half hours." It is very appropriate for the boss to choose the attack time at ten o'clock, the snow is starting to get heavier and heavier, the enemy usually sleeps at about nine o'clock, they would never have imagined that we would choose such a way to attack on such a snowy day, they are too confident, they think that as long as they defend the danger and do not take the initiative to attack, they will not give us any chance, they can't imagine that we dare to grit our teeth and make a detour of more than ten kilometers, almost to the edge of Yangchunqiao Town, only to turn back and climb the snow-covered mountains, haha! Don't worry, when the fight is a little bit of hundreds of jars of kerosene, the mountains and fields are full of fire, and the brothers will be hot, the fly in the ointment is that we can't go down, Lao Tzu estimates that there are at least 300 light and heavy machine guns on the machine gun positions four kilometers long below, and this time it can only make the grandsons of the model battalion and the second and third battalions cheap. ”

"After the mission is completed, we can drive directly to the southeast corner of the town down the hill, where there is an enemy ammunition depot. We just took it, and let the brothers of the company rush down the hill quickly, and it should be about two and a half hours. Lu Cambridge reminded.

Gu Changfeng shook his head helplessly: "Don't mention it, it's not our turn, Ding Zhicheng's grandson has long been eyeing it, as long as the special detachment takes a fancy to something, who can get it?" Forget it, let's figure out a way for the next battle. Let's go, the brothers are in place one after another, let's inspect and cheer up, it is estimated that Xia Jian's grandson has already been lying on the opposite side of the mountain. ”

Gu Changfeng said it right, Xia Jian's third battalion due to the advantages of geography, people and people, under the leadership of nearly 100 young mountain people from two indigenous villages deep in the western foot of Hengshan Mountain, the marching mileage was greatly shortened, his first battalion needed to wait for the production of explosives packs, waiting for the second battalion stationed at the mouth of the Xin'an River to send more than a dozen barrels of kerosene cans, set off two hours later than Gu Changfeng's fourth battalion, but arrived at the predetermined position one and a half hours earlier, most of the brothers learned to use the terrain to build a simple shelter from the wind and snow under the teaching of simple and industrious mountain people. Four or five people huddled together to warm each other and eat dried meat, which was much more nourishing than Gu Laoer's four camps.

In the model battalion station north of Xiaya Town, 500 war horses were gnawing on rich horse feed, and the 500 cavalrymen who had been temporarily transferred from the town were already familiar with each other after the morning's arrangement and arrangement, and all of them sat quietly in a 30-meter bungalow surrounded by tents, carefully wiping their weapons, loading ammunition, and waiting for the regiment's deputy Hu Jialin to take immediate action.

The brothers of the engineer company of the third battalion supported more than 30 large wooden boats and went down the river under the cover of the snowy night, and when the battle began, the brothers of the third battalion immediately crossed the third battalion to the opposite bank, occupied the line of the Xiangu Temple, where there was only one company of defenders, and attacked the enemy of Meicheng who rushed to the aid or fled from five kilometers to the east, because at the same time, Xue Yue's first division would launch a fierce attack on Meicheng, and half of Cai Zhonghu's artillery regiment would also join the battle of the first division. Using artillery fire to cover the officers and men of the 1st Division to force the crossing of the Sanjiang Estuary, the 21st Division led by Cheng Cheng and Chen Cheng will also launch a surprise attack on Sandu Town, which has no danger to defend.

After the former enemy's general headquarters received an urgent report from the Second Division, it quickly adjusted its battle plan under the leadership of Bai Chongxi, and all of it revolved around the actions of the Second Division, which is also where the wise and knowledgeable Bai Chongxi surpassed ordinary people.

In the front-line command post in the north of Xiaya Town, it was very quiet, and Xu Tingyao, who had a high fever, was wrapped in a thick quilt and lay on the Taishi chair, insisting on reading the urgent reports sent by each regiment, and was very pleased that all regiments of the division had completed the pre-war troop transfer.

Seeing that Liu Zhi was whispering to An Yi on the edge of the brazier, Xu Tingyao smiled slightly and asked in a low voice, "Xiao Yi, what kind of scene will it be in the four-kilometer narrow road tomorrow?" ”

An Yi was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and smiled bitterly: "My subordinates can't predict it, it's certain that it's a mess, I just hope that the violent explosion won't cause a large-scale landslide or landslide, otherwise the five hundred brothers of the cavalry battalion temporarily put together by our regiment can only dismount and rush through these few kilometers of narrow roads on two legs." ”

Liu Zhi looked at his watch: "Let's also get ready, there will be an explosion in three minutes, although this place is 2.2 kilometers away from the battlefield, hundreds of large explosive packages exploded almost at the same time, and it is estimated that the destructive power will be amazing." ”

An Yi suddenly realized that there was an old tiled house above his head, and immediately stood up in a panic, pulled Xu Tingyao and shouted: "Hurry, hurry, let's all go to the communication department tent in the middle of the courtyard......"

Everyone suddenly came to their senses, hurriedly grabbed the map and documents and ran out of the door, Xu Tingyao walked behind with the support of An Yi and the adjutant, and originally wanted to make a joke and relax, but they heard the "boom" explosion sound like thunder, the door and window lattice of the house were windless and automatic, making a screeching sound, and the tiles above the head made a chaotic sound, and then "boom" fell.

As soon as the three of them rushed out of the gate, they heard a loud "boom", and the beams of the room suddenly fell down after being displaced, and most of the whole house collapsed suddenly, so frightened that An Yi yelled, grabbed Xu Tingyao and rushed desperately to the big tent in the courtyard, and all the generals only felt that the ground under their feet was undulating in the continuous violent explosion, and it was shaking constantly, and it took more than two minutes to calm down.

The anxious An Yi rushed out of the big tent and looked at the north, Liu Zhi and the commanders of the division's subordinate departments also followed, everyone stood behind An Yi and looked at the distance, only to see the thick smoke billowing in the direction of the narrow road two kilometers away, the fire was blazing, dispelling the darkness in the sky, the snow all over the mountain was instantly dyed red, the sharp north wind sent the neighing of war horses and bursts of shouts to kill, but the explosion of guns and grenades was very sporadic, which means that the blasting attack achieved the intended purpose.

Immediately afterwards, the earth-shattering roars of the brothers of the Model Battalion and the three main regiments of the Second Division were heard, and the large army had launched a general attack, rushing from all the starting points to the south entrance of the narrow road that was burned red, and the victory of the Second Division was already unstoppable.

In the middle of the narrow road, Hu Jialin, deputy of the regiment, took the lead, rushed to the front of the horse team, and nervously looked at the sides and ahead in the high-speed gallop, the surging horse team knocked the fleeing enemy on the road like a scarecrow, and a flower machine gun sprayed a string of tongues of fire to the panicked and howling remnants on both sides, and the blazing air flow at high speed, emitting a long whimper, and the impact and roar of the boulder rolling down the hillside echoed all over the mountain.

In the dazzling firelight, the beard in front of him even saw the patches of snow on the high mountain in front of him sliding down the mountain, and saw a machine gun and pieces of enemy remnants on the position at the foot of the mountain, large and small stones, and broken tree trunks smashed into the air, but he couldn't care about any evasion, he could only risk death to ride his horse, rush to the north entrance at the fastest speed, and then change the shell gun with the flower machine gun in his hand after firing the bullet, and shoot all the enemies in front of him as much as possible. There is no way to see the officers and soldiers in the kilometer-long horse team being smashed off their horses by stones falling at high speed, and they can't see the unfortunate brothers who fall off their horses and are trampled into meat cakes by pieces of iron hooves.

The roaring cavalry and horses finally rushed out of the north entrance, with the help of the blazing fire, they divided into two teams and rushed into the enemy camps on both sides of the road at high speed, the beard roared, pulled out the treasure knife, and the brothers behind him roared in unison, and pieces of bullets and grenades flew into the frantically fleeing enemy group, and the sound of explosions and dense machine guns resounded throughout the four fields, and the wide enemy formation was in a mess under the iron hooves and sword light of the revolutionary army, and it was unrecognizable.

The 600 brothers of the model battalion, who followed closely behind the cavalry and entered the canyon, under the leadership of the battalion deputy Lu Guang and instructor Fang Jing, divided into two roads and rushed to the passes, pillboxes and machine gun positions at the foot of the mountain. The high-power bomb that fell to the bottom blew up the solid soil layer out of a huge scorched black area, from the foot of the mountain to the mountainside within tens of meters of all the vegetation was gone, and the continuous large-scale landslides and soil layers slipped to expose the first rocky mountain, and the melting snow splashed down from the mountain, pouring out pieces of water mist on the hot surface, and the strong smell of gunpowder smoke and blood filled the canyon for several kilometers for a long time...... Sixteen kilometers behind Jiande City, the north wind was howling, and the strong smell of gunpowder smoke in the heavy snow was blowing in his face, Bai Chongxi was wearing a yellow tweed coat, standing on the rockery in the backyard of the county government and looking at the red sky in the north for a long time, allowing the heavy snow to attach to his hat and shoulders.

Chief of Staff Zhang Dingfan came behind Bai Chongxi and reported in a low voice: "Liu Jingfu called to report that the 5th Regiment of the 2nd Division took the lead in crossing Yangchunqiao Town to pursue northward, followed by the 4th Regiment, the 6th Regiment and the 65th Regiment of Chen Jiji's Division, and the headquarters of the 2nd Division is moving towards Yangchunqiao Town. Another: Xue Yue led a division to successfully cross the city, and was engaged in street battles with the stubborn enemy in Meicheng, and victory was only a matter of time. The defenders of two brigades and three regiments in Sandu Town were engaged in a fierce battle with the serious 21st Division, and it was estimated that the news of the loss of Yangchunqiao Town would soon spread to Meicheng and Sandu, and the enemy army was afraid that the whole line would be shaken in a panic. ”

Bai Chongxi nodded, shook the snowflakes on his body and stepped into the small pavilion below, took off the general's hat and gently flicked off the snowflakes on it:

"Yes! I didn't expect the progress to be so fast, before I rushed to the front, this most difficult battle had already been fought, and this An Yi was terrible! It seems that our plans have not kept up with him......"
