Whether Song Biao's unit uses the name of the Hunjiang Security Brigade or the Manchurian Infantry Regiment, it is essentially an out-and-out bandit force, and when they heard about the richness of the First Brigade of the Cavalry of the Yue Army, everyone's eyes glowed green, and they just didn't know if they could swallow it.

Fortunately, there is still time, and there is nothing else to do during this time, Song Biao can train for a few days, especially in the evening.

In the past few days when Yujiayao was stationed, the Manchurian Infantry Regiment was divided into two parts for training, the first part was the large force sent by the Tsarist Far East Army, and these Russian staff officers were in charge, with the cooperation of Zhao Tingzhu and Hu Dalin, and the second part was a small unit led by Song Biao himself, with 320 people reading power organized into two squadrons, namely the first garrison squadron and the second garrison squadron, they were reading power training at night.

The training at night was very special, extremely cold, and each brother had to be given an extra set of leather jackets, six extra pickle buns a day, and an extra meal of hot porridge buns in the evening.

In these days, these Russian staff officers sent by Brigadier General Madenidov began to play their due role, and the Manchurian infantry regiment really began to regularize training, and Song Biao troubled Major Kornilov and Zhao Tingzhu to cooperate to translate the non-commissioned officer textbook and infantry manual of the Tsarist Russian army into Chinese, and took time during the day to teach each battalion commander, squadron leader, squad leader and squad leader.

During this period, the 3rd Division of the Yue Army finally arrived at Wicker Village, and the 5th Division of the Yue Army located in Tong Erbao formed a horn with each other, carried out a counter-encirclement of the Russian army, and tried to rescue the 1st Brigade of the Cavalry of the Yue Army.

War is about both sides wanting to get the best outcome.

Regardless of whether the Yue army will abandon Shen Dan Fort or continue to defend Shen Dan Fort, the tactical intention of the Russian Second Army at this time is also obvious, that is, to take the 1st Cavalry Brigade of Shen Dan Fort before the two divisions of the Yue Army break through the defensive line, and then concentrate all forces to encircle and annihilate the 3rd and 5th Divisions of the Yue Army.

The two sides have entered a phase of stalemate, in which the strength of both sides is increasing every day, and the fighting is becoming more and more intense.

If this fight continues, anyone will have a day when they can't hold on, and the key is how long the army of Shen Danbao can last.

February 4, 1905.

After many tug-of-wars and strong attacks, the two infantry divisions of the Russian army were seriously damaged, and the same was true of the 1st Cavalry Brigade of the army stationed in Shendanbao, and the garrison in Xiaobaozi began to be gradually transferred to the north, and finally Song Biao found a suitable opportunity.

At two o'clock in the morning, Song Biao personally took his reorganized No. 1 Garrison Squadron and No. 2 Garrison Squadron to be responsible for the raid, Zhao Tingzhu's 1st Infantry Battalion, Kornilov's 3rd Infantry Battalion and Engineer Brigade were responsible for support, Zhang Yahu's 2nd Infantry Battalion, Transport Brigade and the 2nd Infantry Regiment stationed in Datai Village coordinated operations, and it was necessary to seize the multiple stronghold defense lines on the southern line of Xiaobaozi tomorrow.

Song Biao led two squadrons of troops close to 300 people to sneak into the barren forest, and waited in the depths of the forest until 3:15 at night, when the second garrison team in charge of the assault followed Song Biao and sneaked into the earthen kiln again, which was only more than 100 meters away from the small fort of the army.

They bypassed a complete line of defense along the way, and they were truly alone, and once they failed, they didn't even have the possibility of retreating.

Of course, Song Biao knew very well in his heart, for this reason, his preparation was also very perfect, the second garrison team of the leopard was good at climbing over the wall and entering the house, and the first garrison team was armed with two Makqin machine guns, and then Zhao Tingzhu and Kornilov and other troops who came over would also carry four machine guns.

The whole set of action plans, Song Biao has rehearsed more than a dozen times in these days to ensure that each brother is extremely skilled, this is an authentic bandit night raid on a rich man's house, it is almost a process, and the brothers can easily master it.

Climbing to the top of the clay kiln, relying on the chimney mouth as a cover, Song Biao used a high-quality sandbag pillow as a cushion, padded his 03 rifle, carefully adjusted the microscope, and then gently loaded and aimed at the sentry in the southwest corner of the small fort.

At this time, it was the most sleepy moment for the people, and the sentries and patrolmen who had just come out of the house to pick up the sentry were very unaccustomed to the cold weather outside, and tried to find a place to hide, and there was not a single guard post on the dark wall, and only four sentries who had no place to hide stood guard in their respective sentry posts.

Song Biao has been waiting for time, he chose to start at 3:45 in the morning, he has a lot of experience in standing sentry, at this time there are 15 minutes before the shift change, and the previous shift is basically napping.

After the time reached 3:40, Song Biao was very well prepared, and he was completely sure that he would kill the sentry in the southwest corner with one shot at this distance, he made a gesture, and Li Dayun, who was following him, couldn't wait to light a finger-thick Buddha incense, and drew several circles in a row on the dark earthen kiln, signaling the flower leopard to move forward.

Chen Wu, the leopard, is a native of Chenjiashan, Weihai, and most of the brothers around him are from Xiangma in the Laizhou area of Weihai, and recruited a group of Shandong Xiangma and boxers for Song Biao in Shenyang, more than 60 people, all of whom are big men with a bit of skill.

Chen Wu and his men quietly approached Xiaobaozi, with a few brothers from local backgrounds leading the way, hiding behind a dry pyre that was idle by a farmer, with ladders and ropes ready.

When Chen Wu also lit the Buddha incense, Song Biao re-aimed at the sentry.

There happened to be no wind tonight, not even the slightest sound of wind, which meant that we had to be extremely cautious in the process of advancing, and there should be no sound at all, and the advantage was that it was beneficial for long-range shooting.

Aiming at the sentry's head on the crosshairs, Song Biao held his breath, coldly and gently pulled the trigger, poof, the rifle gently slapped back, and the bullet flew out extremely smoothly.

Almost instantly, the sentry was shot in the left side of the face, and before he could scream, he collapsed into the tower sentry.

After shooting at the target, Song Biao said in a low voice, "Hit on the left", and Li Dayun immediately lit the second pillar of Buddha incense.

Seeing the two pillars of Buddha incense lit up, the leopard Chen Wu continued to move forward in the southwest corner, dozens of brothers are all good at robbing houses, this file has done more than once, and now it has gone through more than a dozen drills, and it has become more and more proficient.

The earthen wall of the small fort is only 2.8 meters high, and for them there is not much difference from the flat ground, two stacked arhats carry the sedan chair, but in a trance, six people quietly flew up, two people changed their shotguns to the front, and the other four people lowered the rope and let the other brothers hang the four futons up.

At the same time, Song Biao aimed at the tower post on the southeast side, and hit the target with one shot again, disposing of the two most dangerous sentinels.

The first people to go up to the wall are people with excellent leg and foot skills, they have light hands and feet, and the strength control is precise, and when they go up the wall, they are almost silent, and the brothers behind can't do it, so they have to lay the bedding first, so that all the brothers can climb the wall without sound.

Moreover, when the large army rushed in, you can't take a ladder, because it's too dark, and you will have a bye when you step on the ladder, Chen Wu is an expert, and the trick he gave Song Biao is a flat ladder, and the ladder is all tiled wooden boards, and when it is put on the wall, there is a futon cushion to block the sound, and it can also play a non-slip and stable effect.

Even if it is to go up to the number 100 people, as long as the hands and feet are light, the average big family will never be able to detect it, as for whether the sentinels and patrols of the army will be aware of it, Chen Wu is not sure.

More than a dozen brothers on Chen Wu's side all went up to the wall, and the situation was excellent, but the army still didn't notice it, and immediately a human cat got on the southwest tower whistle, and the follow-up brothers continued to follow, setting up four flat ladders, but they didn't run up together.

It was only at this time that Song Biao jumped off the earthen kiln and quickly advanced with Li Fugui's garrison team.

Their feet are very light, because they are tied with a very thick layer of cotton shoes, and they walk unsteadily, but there is no sound, which is also the invention of Shandong Xiangma.

Song Biao also followed the wall and went directly to the tower whistle.

The length and width of the small fort are 100 meters, and as long as the sentry on the other side does not deliberately pay attention to the situation, they can't actually see the situation on this side, but at a distance of 200 meters, Song Biao can't ensure that he will kill the opponent with one shot.

He didn't want to take any chances, so he took such a plan and quietly aimed at the other two sentries on the tower post.

It was still very dangerous at this time, because the army had two squads of troops patrolling and guarding on the earthen wall, four men were in charge of standing guard, and the others were hiding from the cold weather outside in two battlements, and if they came out unexpectedly, it might make the battle start earlier.

Aiming at the opponent on the tower sentry, the distance is only 100 meters, Song Biao's hit rate is extremely high, at most one of the ten shots is a mistake, when he aimed at the other two sentries, the brothers of the second garrison team began to go up the wall in batches, they walked directly from the board ladder, thanks to the leopard this expert, there was no sound at all.

There are more people, and there will always be all kinds of accidents and sounds on the wall.

Song Biao could only take the risk of quietly killing the other two sentries, and there was a slight accident at the last time of the killing, the sentry had his back to Song Biao, and Song Biao did not know that the other party was holding the marching pot, and when he was killed, the kettle also fell to the ground, making a clicking sound in the silent night.

Hearing this, everyone knew that something was wrong, and immediately hurried up to the wall, but as a result, none of the soldiers on duty in the battlements on either side came out to take a look at the situation.

It didn't take long for all the brothers of the second garrison team to go up to the tower post and divide into three teams, one team was responsible for setting up machine guns, and the two teams were gently groping outside the two stacks. Li Fugui's garrison team was ready below, because the space on the earthen wall was limited, they could only be prepared below, ready to rush up and join the battle at any time.

Until this time, the leopard Chen Wu lit the six-pillar Buddha incense on the wall and kept shaking, signaling the troops hidden in the barren forest to start advancing, according to the plan, Zhao Tingzhu's 1st Infantry Battalion took the first step, Kornilov's 3rd Infantry Battalion and Hu Dalin's Engineer Brigade followed.
