Liu Mingchuan and others decided that the Democratic Alliance army would occupy the hillside behind the inscription camp at night, and immediately began to prepare, and at this time, Wang Feng, Su Sanniang, Li Shixian, Jiang Zhongji, Zhou Xiuying and Yang Shuijiao were also looking up at the continuous Tongbai Mountain.

The height of Tongbai Mountain is not high, the main peak Taibai Peak is 1140 meters, it is the source of the Huai River, most of the other peaks are between 400 and 800, the length is only 120 kilometers, the width is mostly about 13 kilometers, mainly low mountains and hills, the mountain is relatively gentle, it is the watershed of the Huai River and the Yangtze River water system.

Li Shixian was puzzled: "Why did Liu Mingchuan set up the camp at the foot of the mountain? Once someone sneaks up the mountain, then he has no other way but to abandon the camp and leave, I have heard of this person, he is brave and strategic, and he should not make such a low-level mistake. ”

Su Sanniang smiled and shook her head: "You look carefully at the terrain of Xinyang, Xinyang has its back against Tongbai Mountain and Dabie Mountain, logically speaking, it is easy to defend and difficult to attack, but the mountain of these two mountains is not steep, the enemy is easy to climb the mountain, condescending to attack Xinyang, so I think Liu Mingchuan and Zhou Shengbo camped on the left and right according to the mountain terrain, just to prevent our army from going up the mountain, after all, they have the advantage of being close, once our army arrives, they can quickly seize the high ground on the mountain, Maybe they'll sneak up the mountain in the dark tonight, and ambush us by the way. ”

"Commander Su is right." Jiang Zhongji arched his hand to Wang Feng: "If we can occupy this mountain, we can break Liu Mingchuan's camp within one day. ”

Wang Feng didn't speak, but looked at the mountain and showed a deep groan.

Su Sanniang and Li Shixian did not persuade either, because in their eyes, Jiang Zhongji must have made meritorious contributions, so he would ask Wang Feng to fight, but the problem is. The Sixteenth Army had just been established, many basic training subjects had not been carried out, weapons and equipment had not been comprehensively updated, and the combat effectiveness was very limited, and since the Huai Army saw the importance of Tongbai Mountain, Liu Mingchuan, Zhang Shusheng, and Zhou Shengbo were entrusted with important tasks by Li Hongzhang. Obviously not a general, how could it be possible to let the Democratic Alliance army go up the mountain first?

You must know that the Huai army has a geographical advantage, and it is also a local snake, familiar with the local terrain, and ambushes a few secret posts in the ravines and ravines, and it is difficult for the Democratic Alliance Army to conceal its whereabouts even if it goes up the mountain late at night, and it is impossible to seize the opportunity at all, which means. If you want to seize the mountain, you must fight a tough battle, and no matter how much the sixteenth army pays, it is better to say if it wins, but what if it is defeated? It will have an impact on the morale of the military.

It's just that since Jiang Zhongji opened his mouth first, it is inconvenient for them to stop him, which can easily bring people a misunderstanding of looking down on themselves.

Jiang Zhongji obviously understood this truth, but if he said it. Splash out the water at this time. He could only grit his teeth and said: "Please rest assured that Jiang will act carefully and will never fall into the ambush of the Huai army." ”

In fact, Wang Feng also has the same idea as Su Sanniang and Li Shixian, he is not optimistic about the 16th Army at all, he brought the 16th Army out, purely to open their eyes. And try his best to adapt to the battle rhythm of the Democratic Alliance Army, if it is Su Sanniang or Li Shixian who asks for orders to go up the mountain, then he is not worried, but it is Jiang Zhongji who speaks!

How can we refuse Jiang Zhongji?

"Huh?" Wang Feng's heart suddenly moved, and the corner of his eye just noticed Yang Shuijiao's lips moving. Obviously, he had something to say, and immediately asked, "Miss Shuijiao, do you want to say something?" ”

The medical team led by Yang Shuijiao is not a combatant, and can barely be regarded as a third person, so it is only appropriate for her to come forward and refuse Jiang Zhongji.

Unexpectedly, Yang Shuijiao asked inexplicably: "At night, it will be very cold on the mountain, right?" ”

Zhou Xiuying took it and said, "Then you still need to say?" The lowest temperature at night in Xinyang this season is around zero, and the humidity on the mountain is high, and the mountain wind is strong. ”

Yang Shuijiao stretched out her slender jade finger and pointed at the mountain: "Then let them stay on the mountain, anyway, we are not in a hurry, doesn't Wang Feng still have plans to build a country in the line of fire?" ”

Everyone's eyes suddenly lit up, and they all looked at Yang Shuijiao with incredible eyes, because the Democratic Alliance Army must occupy the mountain, but when to occupy it, there is no accurate letter, the Huai army can only always send troops to garrison the mountain, and there is no camping condition on the mountain, so this northwest is to drink and drink, and if you don't drink, you have to drink, and when you can't bear to drink, it is the time to really attack the mountain.

To put it bluntly, this is the virtual is the real, the real is the virtual, the virtual is the real, the real is the virtual, the real is the virtual, and it makes people scratch their heads.

Wang Feng laughed even more: "Yang Shuijiao, Yang Shuijiao, your idea is very damaged, but I like it, let them freeze on the mountain, and talk about it after the New Year." ”

"Humph!" Yang Shuijiao was triumphant, and snorted lightly with shame.

Wang Feng turned his head and said, "Jiang Zhongji, you should pay close attention to the training of the troops during this time, and when the time is ripe, you will attack the mountain." ”

"Yes!" Jiang Zhongji gave a military salute.

Originally, he didn't think much about asking for orders to go up the mountain, but he just had the intention of showing in front of Wang Feng, but the strange expressions of Su Sanniang and Li Shixian reminded him that he had to face the fact that no matter how fast he moved, he couldn't beat Huaijun, and he was already secretly complaining at that time, but there was no way, Haikou was boasted, so he could only bite the bullet, in fact, his grasp was not great, and Yang Shuijiao's suggestion was to solve his urgent need and give him a buffer time.

"Let's all go back, and we'll set it up again after dinner." Wang Feng waved his hand and took the lead in walking back.

In winter, it was dark early, after dinner, it was not yet dark, Zhou Shengbo was worried that the Democratic Alliance army would go up the mountain first, so he took 5,000 people and quietly touched the mountain.

"You, take someone to squat here, you, and you, go there, put the tricks for Lao Tzu, don't let the short hair touch the mountain, and take out the grenade for Lao Tzu, put it next to you, if anything goes wrong, be careful of your head"

Walking all the way Zhou Shengbo was chattering, assigning people to occupy various key points on the peaks, including mountain nests, stone depressions, and even arranging people on the trees, each of which was extremely hidden, I have to say that compared with the Democratic Alliance Army, the Huai Army does have a geographical advantage.

Today's Huai army is not what it used to be, although they do not have a May Fourth rifle, nor a mortar, but there are a large number of Western artillery, in a small range of scattered firefights, the Democratic Alliance Army's artillery rapid-fire advantage is actually difficult to reflect, and the Huai army has a mini gun, equipped with grenades, if the Democratic Alliance Army blindly attacks the mountain, it can only be a dark eye, even if it is captured, it will have to pay a heavy price.

Soon, all 5,000 people were in place, Zhou Shengbo believed that even if the Democratic Alliance army attacked with three times the strength, he could teach him to suffer a big loss, and after looking around with satisfaction, he leaned on a leeward rock, took out a match, wiped it twice, lit the dry tobacco pouch, and swallowed the clouds and spit out fog.
