Zhanggu Mountain, the relative height is less than 100 meters, it seems to be just a small hill, if the vegetation is sparse, it even only takes ten minutes to climb to the top of the mountain, but the war has never if, in fact, Zhanggu Mountain is full of shrubs, thorns, snakes and insects are everywhere, and the distance is not close.

It is by no means easy for the 305th regiment to quietly touch it.

But Zhang Lingfu did not hesitate, and after the military meeting, he led his troops to start overnight.

Little Japan is in full swing, Xue Yue can leave Wang Yaowu with little time, if there is no breakthrough in the battle situation in Changling before noon tomorrow, Xue Yue must be replaced, therefore, Wang Yaowu can squeeze less time for Zhang Lingfu, and the 305th regiment must take Zhang Gushan before dawn tomorrow

In this night march, Zhang Lingfu learned the lesson of the last time丨 specially invited an old local hunter to act as a guide, but even with the old hunter as a guide, the night march is by no means an easy task, the mountain road is rugged, and you can't shoot torches, so sometimes some officers and soldiers fall down the ravine or under the cliff, and they will break their arms and legs at least and die at worst.

There are also poisonous snakes in the mountains, and from time to time officers and soldiers will be bitten by poisonous snakes.

But these are not the most annoying, the most annoying is a kind of poisonous insects, although the size of this poisonous insect is small, not even as big as the little thumb, but they are covered with stingers but can pour a toxin, once the officers and soldiers are stabbed by the stinger, they will immediately swell up like steamed buns, and they are accompanied by strange itching and stinging.

If there were only a few dozen or hundreds of poisonous insects, then it would not be a big problem, but the problem was that all the branches and leaves of all the bushes along the way were crawling with such poisonous insects, not to mention hundreds of thousands or even millions, and after walking far, almost all the officers and men of the 305th Regiment were already covered with red lumps on their faces, necks, and hands, and the sound of wailing and moaning was endless.

Zhang Lingfu's feet suddenly slipped and almost fell, fortunately, he quickly grabbed a small tree nearby, but his feet stopped, but there was a sudden stinging pain on the back of his hand, Zhang Lingfu retracted his stung right hand like an electric shock, and found that the back of his hand was quickly swollen, and it was accompanied by a hot and severe pain.

"Damn it." Zhang Lingfu cursed hatefully, untied the kettle from his waist and poured water to wash his right hand.

But unfortunately, it is useless to wash with water, and the pain has not been reduced at all, Zhang Lingfu drank the remaining water in the kettle in one go, turned his head and asked Adjutant Zhang Xiaofu: "Adjutant Zhang, what time is it?" ”

Zhang Xiaofu first took out his pocket watch, then took out a flashlight, and replied: "Tuanzao, it's past two o'clock in the morning." ”

Zhang Lingfu's face immediately darkened, it was already past two o'clock in the morning, but he only walked less than half of the way, according to this speed, he would definitely not be able to reach Zhang Gushan before dawn, and other Zhang Lingfu was not afraid, he was afraid that after dawn, the little Japanese soldiers would find their whereabouts, and once their whereabouts were exposed and they lost the benefits of the surprise attack, then this battle would be hanging.

Zhang Lingfu knew that he could only fight hard now, and if he didn't fight, he wouldn't even have a chance, so he turned his head and ordered his adjutant Zhang Xiaofu: "You go and order the regiments, don't care about any non-combat attrition, you must rush to Zhang Gushan before dawn If anyone drags back, don't blame me Zhang Lingfu turned his face and didn't recognize people, go"

The officers and men of the 305th Regiment were enduring the torture of poisonous insects in the dense forest, and the little Japan on Zhanggu Mountain was not easy.

Although the time has entered October, the weather has gradually cooled down, and you can even feel the chill in the early hours of the night, but the mosquitoes and flies in the mountains are not extinct, although the number is not as many as in previous months, but only a few mosquitoes and flies in Liao Liao are also extremely annoying.

Little Japan stationed only one infantry squad on Zhanggu Mountain.

It's not that Junrokuro Matsuura or Kenten Iino are negligent, it's not that these two old devils don't know the importance of Zhang Gushan to the entire defense system of the Matsuura Division, but they simply don't think that the national army will choose to open a passage through the thorny bushes full of snakes and insects to sneak up on Zhang Gushan.

The entire defense system of the Matsuura Division was spread along the only bullet stone road between Changling and Wanjialing, and the four infantry wings under it were responsible for one of the sections, and they had basically controlled the commanding heights at present, and Zhang Gushan was in the middle of the entire defense system of the Matsuura Division, so Matsuura Junrokuro and Iino Kenju did not think that Zhang Gushan would be attacked.

Moreover, in terms of retreating 10,000 steps, even if the national army sends a small force to intersperse it to attack Wangu Mountain, it is of little significance, because as long as the infantry squad guarding the mountain lasts for more than ten minutes, the main force of the wing under the mountain can go up the mountain to reinforce, so the small units of the national army interspersed will be gnawed by the Japanese army to the point that there is no scum left.

As for the large forces of the national army, it is simply impossible to penetrate from the deep mountains and old forests.

However, Iino Kenten is an old devil who has experienced a hundred battles after all, and he still left an infantry squad on Zhanggu Mountain.

Second Lieutenant Nomura woke up from the nightmare, reached out and touched the military blanket wrapped around his body, it was wet, and the fog in the mountains was foggy again.

Got out of the tent, only to see that the bonfire in the center of the camp had long been extinguished, and even the ashes were black, Takada, who was in charge of the night vigil, held a rifle and fell asleep against the big rock behind him, and Ensign Nomura walked over and kicked Takada in the crotch, Takada screamed, woke up from his sleep, and jumped up with a rifle.

"Yagayalu." Nomura slapped Takada with his hand and scolded, "What about Yamada Kazuki? ”

"Yamada-san?" Private Takada looked around blankly and replied, "He seems to have relieved himself." ”

"Go get him back, and go to bed." Nomura's expression softened and he whispered, "I'll guard this place for you." "War has always been cruel, although the national army fought very hard, as the aggressor, small Japan was actually very hard, especially the officers and soldiers of the Matsuura Division, in fact, they were also holding on.

"Hello." Private Takada bowed again and again, and ran over to find another sentry.

Nomura squatted down and used a branch to pick up the ash pile, revealing the remaining embers inside, then grabbed a handful of pine feathers and put them on, and then puffed up his cheeks and blew hard, and in a few clicks, the feathers were whirring and burning, and Nomura put Yu firewood on the fire again, and then turned around and walked to the other side of the stone and sat down.

However, after sitting down for less than two seconds, Nomura suddenly felt that something was wrong, when he squatted down to pick up the ash pile just now, it seemed that there was still nothing behind the stone opposite, why did he wait for the fire to burn, and when he came around and sat down, there was an extra stake behind the stone? No, it's not a stake, it's clearly a person, and it's definitely Chinese

The next moment, Nomura suddenly got up and was about to pull out his gun with his backhand, but unfortunately it was too late.

The stake behind the stone jumped up suddenly, and in a flash of cold light, Nomura's throat burst open like a fish's mouth, and hot blood splashed out like a fountain and splashed on the face of the Chinese soldier, who was indeed a Chinese soldier, a little thin and not very tall, but with a very sharp back.

As he was dying, Nomura saw the Chinese soldier untie two grenades from his waist, hold the fuse and wait for two seconds, and then throw it into the tent of the infantry group, and then more Chinese soldiers came out from all sides, and they rushed to the remaining two tents with bright bayonets, and then stabbed them through the tents with bayonets.

Nomura fell to the ground, and the eastern sky had just revealed a trace of fish belly white.

"Nani?" Kenten Iino couldn't believe his ears, Zhang Gushan was lost? The Chinese actually carved a passage out of the snake-infested thorn bushes?

The adjutant handed the binoculars to Kenten Iino and said, "Captain, you can see for yourself." ”

Kenten Iino took the telescope from the adjutant's hand, the sky was already bright at this time, and through the field of vision of the telescope, you could clearly see the situation on Zhanggu Mountain, and sure enough, there was already a blue sky and white sun flag on the top of the mountain, and there were Chinese soldiers wearing grass green military uniforms who were moving on the mountainside, most of them digging trenches.

"Yagayalu." Kenju Iino burst out between his teeth, turned his head and yelled, "What about that idiot in Nomura? ”

What people don't know is that Second Lieutenant Nomura is actually the nephew of Kenten Iino Kenten, before going to Zhang Gushan, Kenten Iino once personally told Second Lieutenant Nomura that he must not neglect the enemy and must be vigilant, it has only been less than two days, and Second Lieutenant Nomura has lost Zhang Gushan, which makes Kenten Iino embarrassed?

The adjutant sighed and said gloomily: "Captain, Nomura-san has broken jade. ”

Iino Xianshi was stunned, and then his face showed pity, he usually loves this nephew very much, Iino has even secretly filled out the letter of recommendation, just wait for the battle of Wanjialing to end, he will recommend Nomura to go to the Army University for further study, but he never thought that Nomura was broken in Zhang Gushan, which made him explain to his sister after returning to China?

When he came back to his senses, Iino Kenten suddenly pulled out his saber again, pointed at Zhang Gushan and shouted: "Order, the L Infantry Brigade immediately counterattacks Zhang Gushan, and kills all the people on the mountain, all of them, all of them, and ......."
