The second company saw the road at 5:11 p.m. At this time, they were nearly two kilometers away from the staircase to the south of Qinglong Mountain.

Strictly speaking, Qinglong Mountain, including the current location of Erlian, actually belongs to the periphery of the primeval forest, although the trees are not as tall and lush as the primeval forest, but it is still very easy to hide the hundred and ten people.

In addition, there is a fierce battle on the side of Qinglong Mountain, and all the little devils' attention is on that side, who would have thought that in the primeval forest, there will be a relatively safe trail directly through here? You know, everyone can think of how dangerous the primeval forest is, especially those places where no one has walked, it is basically equivalent to joking with their own lives, how can there be a relatively safe trail in advance?

Therefore, when the little devil faced the south of Qinglong Mountain, that is, the side where the second company was now located, he only set up a small number of guard posts and finished the matter. Of course, this is also related to the arrogance and arrogance that little devils are used to.

Several groups of scouts strictly carried out the orders of the second company commander: only long-distance observation is allowed, and even if the reconnaissance is not clear, they are never allowed to be exposed. Finally, the last group of scouts returned before dark.

Immediately, according to the reports returned from the reconnaissance of each group, combined with the map and the familiarity with the surrounding terrain, the second company commander personally drew a sketch. However, don't underestimate this sketch, because if you look down from a high altitude, you will be dumbfounded to find that this sketch basically coincides with the deployment of troops and materials of the little devil in Qinglong Mountain. In other words, everything that is locked and marked on this sketch is basically correct, at most the location of the individual sentries of the little devil has not been discovered.

And the fierce gunfire in the distance was known to everyone to indicate the intensity of the fighting. As a soldier, the commander of the second company understands better that the assault regiment is still relatively poor for the prosperity of the little devils, but since the fourth battalion of the assault regiment has now invested such a large amount of money and fights out the ammunition as if it does not need money, that is to say, the fourth battalion is already making a last fight for the task of the second company. Thinking about it like this, coupled with the way everyone has always fought, the second company commander couldn't help but imagine the fierceness of the battle in his mind, and it must be extremely iron-blooded.

As soon as he thought of this, the second company commander felt tremendous pressure, and his mentality became a little anxious.

Therefore, he summoned the deputy company commander and several platoon commanders for an emergency meeting, and the content of the meeting was only one point: everyone made a multiple-choice question: should they attack immediately after dark, or should they wait until after three o'clock in the morning, when the little devil is the most lax in the day, according to the original plan, to launch a sneak attack on him?

There are pros and cons to both options.

If you wait until after 3 a.m. to launch an attack as planned, you will have a greater certainty than the former.

If you choose to attack after dark, although the certainty is much smaller, it can indirectly reduce the casualties and pressure of the main force of the fourth battalion, and allow the fourth battalion to retreat in time, so as to not only grasp the initiative, but also allow the fourth battalion to retain some seeds...... Everyone is a soldier, and just by such a dense sound of gunfire and explosions, you can judge how fiercely the fourth battalion is fighting now and how difficult it is to support.

Each has its own supporters, each has its own disadvantages, and no one can convince anyone for a while: if you fight after dark, it seems too hasty and is not conducive to fighting, but if you fight again after three o'clock in the morning, God knows what kind of accident will happen at that time.

In the end, it was the platoon commander who put forward a relatively comprehensive suggestion: neither fight after dark, nor after 3 o'clock in the morning, but start fighting at 10 o'clock tonight.

The reason why such a proposal was made was also nodded and approved by most people, because the platoon commander put forward a reason that no one could ignore: how long could the fourth battalion hold out?

Yes, whether it is weapons and equipment, ammunition reserves, or troops, the four battalions are below. But he has to take on the responsibility of dragging the main force of the little devil, which is equivalent to handing over the initiative on the battlefield to the little devil. Then, in the face of all these unfavorable factors, no one is sure how long the Fourth Battalion will be able to hold out.

However, everyone knows that the Fourth Battalion is desperately buying time and opportunities for them. However, absolute disadvantages are not necessarily remedied by willpower. And once the fourth battalion can't hold on, then the main force of the little devils will inevitably come back to their senses, so as to strengthen the guard force against the target, and at that time, if the second company wants to sneak attack again, the difficulty will definitely increase exponentially. Even, after the main force of the little devil came back, he immediately set off to the county seat of Sanqiao County to achieve the initial combat purpose, and at that time, the second company would no longer have the hope and certainty of a sneak attack, which was equivalent to the failure of the second company's mission at the same time, announcing the failure of the mission of the fourth battalion, and all the efforts under the premise of failure will become less glorious.

On the other hand, even if the fourth battalion really held out until three o'clock in the morning, individuals can judge an absolute answer: the fourth battalion will pay an extremely heavy price, or even annihilation...... It is very likely that this includes the second company itself, because everyone knows that the little devil will definitely send heavy troops to guard against the protection of materials. The second company wants to sneak attack, which seems to be beautiful, but in fact, it is absolutely dead.

Therefore, combined with various favorable or unfavorable factors, ten o'clock in the evening is the best and most helpless choice at present.

Now that the time for the attack has been determined, the rest is easy: most of the fighters are sheltered in place, drinking water and eating dry food.

More scouts were sent to observe the enemy, but they were still carrying out their previous orders: even if they could not detect the situation, they would never be allowed to reveal themselves. Also, pay special attention to whether the little devil's guard power for material has changed.

And this point can be regarded as a crooked hit.

Because in everyone's opinion, the four battalions are fighting so fiercely, and they can even make everyone think of it as fiercely, so it will inevitably drag down the main force of the little devils...... Under the leadership of the regimental headquarters, almost every battle of the assault regiment has ended in victory since the day it was founded, which not only made the commanders and fighters of the regiment develop arrogance, but at the same time, it is inevitable that they will underestimate the combat effectiveness of the little devils a little.

But I forgot that the little devil can occupy such a place in China, in addition to various factors, the little devil's own combat effectiveness is definitely the most important of them. If you really want to fight the little devil head-on, the little devil's combat power is definitely not worse than anyone else, and it will even be very strong.

On the other hand, the fourth battalion seems to have always been out of the advantage of the initiative, but in fact, it is with the help of the danger of the primeval forest and the ingenuity caused by the realization of the planned deployment, that is, it will fight until now, but in fact, the initiative has always been faintly in the hands of the little devil, not to mention anything else, that is, the little devil only needs to turn around, no matter how the fourth battalion has the advantage before, it will be at this moment because it has to pounce and drag the little devil, and give the initiative to the little devil, so that the previous advantage is gone.

Even, it can be said that the previous series of victories of the Fourth Battalion, in addition to itself, also had a huge boost, that is, the contempt for the Fourth Battalion caused by the little devil's own arrogance, so that he would be fooled. Otherwise, under normal circumstances, who would dare to chase into the primeval forest with just over 300 people in two squadrons? Not to mention how dangerous the primeval forest is, everyone knows how dangerous the primeval forest is, even if the other side does not know the number of people and equipment, who would dare to easily chase them in? However, the little devils of these two squadrons dared to do this, and it can be seen from this how high the little devils' arrogance and contempt for the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army are.

Moreover, the fourth battalion has been constantly suppressed and constantly divided into troops, which has further weakened the strength of the fourth battalion. Up to now, it is said that it is the main force of the fourth battalion, but in fact, there are only two companies as the main force, and the people who can really fight are probably less than two companies for a long time, and that's it, you have to count the sniper platoon and those hunters.

The difficulty of such a force to deal with little devils who are stronger than themselves in all aspects can be imagined.

And this is exactly what Erlian is worried about.

However, such a fierce battle made the people of the second company think that the fourth battalion had dragged the main force of the little devil, but they didn't think that what they were dragging was only a brigade and a squadron, and the main force of the little devil, the complete formation of the wing, was basically all resting at the headquarters of the Qinglong Mountain Commando Regiment at this time.

However, based on his own experience, the commander of the second company felt that the consumption of ammunition in such a fierce battle must be very large.

The fourth battalion has nine safe stations, and even if it does not have all the ammunition reserves of the safe stations, as long as it has the ammunition reserves of three safety stations, it will definitely be able to charge such a dense ammunition for another three hours. This is because every bullet in the security reserve is reserved according to the base number of a battalion fighting for half an hour. That is, the four battalions can replenish ammunition on the spot, but the little devils are definitely different.

The little devil rushed into the primeval forest to support urgently, and it was absolutely impossible to carry such a large amount of ammunition, that is to say, the little devil would definitely unload the ammunition from the big cars parked on the road down the mountain and carry it over. And this is likely to make the little devils strengthen the protection of those big cars, so the scouts must pay attention to whether the little devils' defense of the big cars has changed.

The scouts kept sending back information that the little devils had indeed strengthened the protection of the convoy, because it was obvious that not only had the number of people carrying weapons and ammunition increased considerably, but also that the speed was significantly faster, and the commanders were constantly shouting and shouting there. What's more, the strength of its guards has doubled, which not only increases the number and number of guards, but also increases the density of patrols...... In short, the overall situation shows that the little devil's attention to material things has been further increased.

It was said that this was originally a matter that made the second company commander feel further pressured, but after comparing the sketch according to the information sent back by the scouts, the second company commander actually laughed, which made the instructor on the side feel inexplicable. However, the instructor also laughed after taking a closer look at the sketch.

In the end, everyone who saw the sketch and heard the reconnaissance report couldn't help but laugh.

All of this is just because of one thing: the little devil died by himself.

In other words, the second company didn't expect that the main force of the little devil had returned. And the main force of the little devils also never expected that the second company would sneak out of the primeval forest to their back......
