Chapter 100: Bait
As she spoke, Elena habitually took out a pen and paper, ready to jot down any conversations that might be of value. Lopatkin quietly approached Akberil: "Let's just say it, you must be calm, and you can't let these reporters see that our Russian troops are still panicking in the face of a wave of bandits, do you know?" It's about our international image. Okay, hurry up and order the lads to eat, and after eating, it's okay to leave as soon as you have eaten, man? ”
After saying that, he greeted Yelena: "Miss Elena, you remind me of a clear saying, that is, early birds get worms. ”
Yelena was a little excited: "Is there any news coming?" ”
Lopatkin said very proudly: "Yes, our forward search team has found the traces of Yang Dagui, and has conducted a small-scale contact battle, go, I'll tell you slowly." ”
Akberil looked at Lopatkin's back from behind and sighed helplessly.
In war, sometimes a few minutes of loss is enough to determine success or failure, and if the Russians advance immediately, Yang Xiaolin's situation will be very bad. It was precisely because the Russians had to spend half an hour eating breakfast that Yang Xiaolin, who was hiding not far away, had a certain amount of time to investigate, and it also allowed the bandits to recover a little bit of physical strength.
And making breakfast at this time is really a very stupid thing.
When Yang Xiaolin reconnoitred and returned to their hiding place, his expression was a little excited: "Brother Jin, Nyerere, come here!" ”
Jin Dadao and Nyerere came to Yang Xiaolin, and Yang Xiaolin cleared an area on the ground and placed a stone: "The Russians have set up camp on top of three hills, the middle hill is the closest to us, and we can rush to the front through the forest in front. The Russian military camp was set up in the middle of the mountainside, about 200 meters high, and judging from the fireworks that rose, there were nearly 3,000 Russian soldiers inside. As for how many Qing soldiers there were, we have no way of knowing. ”
He took another stone and put it on his left: "Two kilometers away from this barracks to the west, there is another Russian camp, they are rooted at the foot of the mountain, the number is about 2,000, the east one is also at the foot of the mountain, the other two barracks are only a faint smoke and fire in the barracks when they are making breakfast, it should be all Qing troops." ”
Nyerere was a little surprised: "How do you know?" ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled: "Because the Qing Dynasty troops don't eat breakfast." ”
The Qing Dynasty was now very poor, and it was customary to eat two meals a day. Although this military operation, Western countries gave the Qing Dynasty a lot of material aid. But those supplies began to be exploited by Lafayette, and when they were distributed to each soldier, there were still two meals a day.
Nyerere shook his head incredulously, in his opinion, the least thing for a soldier to fight was to feed his soldiers' stomachs. Let's take Yang Xiaolin and these bandits as an example, although they ran hard all night, they were guaranteed to eat two more meals at night.
Yang Xiaolin didn't dwell on these questions with him, and asked: "Which one in the middle of Weishenme has the most enemies?" And the other two roads are camped at the foot of the mountain, weishenme only they set up camp on the mountainside? ”
The answer was obvious, and the golden knife asked, "You mean, the commander of Russia is on this mountain?" ”
Yang Xiaolin said: "Very likely! ”
Nyerere glanced at Yang Xiaolin: "Yang, are you going to kill their commander?" ”
Yang Xiaolin smiled: "If he gives me a chance, I will definitely not be soft." But we don't have that right now. I have a jihua, the Russians will definitely pull out after breakfast, I think it will not be easy for us to kill from any direction, the most haode way is to step back a little, choose haode terrain, and arrange a pocket for them in advance! Only by disrupting their deployment can we break out of the encirclement. ”…,
The time and place are favorable, and now that the sky is already bright, Yang Xiaolin cannot occupy the time. The disparity in the strength of the two sides is not to mention any harmony, and Zuihou is a geographical advantage. If you don't know how to use this point, there is really no way to fight this battle.
"Where do you want to set up an ambush?"
Nyerere asked. Yang Xiaolin's eyes flashed: "Do you remember the valley we ran over just now?" ”
Nyerere shook his head: "It's useless, the Russians won't be fooled, that valley is dangerous at first sight, they will send troops to reconnoitre." ”
A smile appeared on the corner of Yang Xiaolin's mouth: "When the allure of the bait can't be resisted, the jackal won't care about any traps." Nyerere, you and Brother Jin and the team are now hurry over to ambush, me and Sui Bing stay, I believe that my head must be what those people want the most. ”
Being a decoy is a very dangerous thing, but Nyerere and Jin Dadao both understand that there is no more suitable place except for Yang Xiaolin.
So what did they all persuade, Nyerere patted Yang Xiaolin on the shoulder: "Be careful." ”
Yang Xiaolin nodded: "Remember, the purpose of our ambush is not to kill many people, just disrupt their formation and let us rush out in a fit of anger." The specific Nyerere looked at the office, Brother Kim, you listen to him. ”
Jin Dadao responded: "Don't worry." ”
He stayed with a company casually, and the others ran back after Jin Dadao and Nyerere. The counter-encirclement campaign has just begun, and they have already run several times the way of their opponents. But this does not mean the end, even if you kill the enemy's encirclement, you still have to keep running. Annihilating the enemy in the movement is a magic weapon for defeating the strong with the weak.
Yang Xiaolin asked a company of bandits to start digging a trench on the top of the mountain. This work was not difficult for the current miners, but the stones were too hard in some places on the mountain, and they did not dare to make too loud noises, so it took twenty minutes for more than 300 people to dig a few small ditches that could not be connected together.
The Russian general did not give them much more time, and at seven o'clock the enemy in the three barracks set out in a search and advance formation.
Commander Lopatkin was not too far behind, after all, even if he did not take the lead, he could not make a postponement to make those reporters laugh at him. He had already read the newspapers of various countries a few days ago, and the hateful British journalist actually said that the Russian troops sent 20,000 horses out of cowardice!
Lopatkin wondered if he did fight, whether he would give the British reporter a chance to interview in the front line to see if he could still speak in that mocking tone when faced with Yang's bullets.
Or the cute Miss Elena is empathetic, and every report is so objective and fair in the eyes of the commander. If he really caught Yang beating the ghost, shouldn't he give this French beauty an exclusive interview? (Five more!!) Don't ask if there are any updates, the key is whether there are still tickets? Is there any, brothers? A few more votes and one more chapter, okay? )
