C40 Clawing tongue

Bai Renzhan who was in the middle of the bamboo forest was already at the end of the battle, both sides' forces were involved in it, and on the side of the school army, the teaching second group 1st Battalion was fighting with the enemy's thousand of soldiers, and the sound of battle spread far and wide. Although the number of gray uniformed Student Army was less than the enemy troops, they could still command their soldiers. The officers led the troops and unleashed their full strength, with the army flags always standing at the front of the battle, the charge signal's horn louder and louder.

The location of the battle was initially thirty meters away from the enemy's position, but now that the Student Army had touched the frontlines of the enemy's position, the clanging sounds of the bayonets could be heard, as more and more enemies fell back. Even more of the enemy soldiers were intimidated by the imposing aura, and took a few steps back. Although the enemy's reinforcements were still moving far away from the Nanji Bridge and entering into the battle, the enemy was still retreating bit by bit. Along with the loud voice of the charge signal, the Student Army surged towards the enemy's position like a gray tide.

"Whampoa Academy Army is truly valiant."

Chen Mingshu sighed as he put down the telescope. The battle scene in his mind was still fresh in his mind. The Student Army's brazen demeanor was enough to make him, who had been fighting in the battlefield for many years, feel admiration.

In the past few days, the two armies had repeatedly fought over the Nanji Bridge, and every time the enemy attacked and lost a position, Student Army would always attack and snatch it back with one blade and one spear. In terms of strength, Chen Mingshu felt that his Seventh Brigade had fallen to the side, and was ashamed of himself.

"Quick, order the troops to follow up."

Chen Mingshu knew that the enemies would immediately counterattack crazily. Student Army was exhausted after a long battle, he was able to break out and no longer have the strength to defend, so he immediately replied.

Chen Ji dejectedly put down the telescope. In his anger, he ruthlessly kicked the ammunition box, causing a loud sound to come out. He rubbed his face with force, and spoke to the stiff Zhang Fufeng: "How many times?"

Zhang Fufeng laughed bitterly: "It's already been seven consecutive days."

Chen Ji gritted his teeth and stomped his feet, and said anxiously: "I do not believe that Student Army's body is made of iron!"

Chen Ji turned and paced around the headquarters, and suddenly shouted, "Xu De Li!"

"Here, Brigadier."

The one who answered was a dark middle-aged officer, he was as tall and sturdy as a black bear, with two large horse shaped horse medallions stuck in his belt, he was a Foshan Man from Guangdong Province who was proficient in Southern Fist, serving as Chen Ji's guard, Company Commander.

Chen Ji said quickly: "You will lead my guards. "Get the position back."

Xu De Li nodded his head heavily, took a big step and walked out.

"Come back." Chen Ji quickly walked in front of the map, pointed at the mulberry garden area on the map, and said to the south gate: "Here, Chen Mingshu's First Brigade is hiding behind Student Army's butt and pretending to be a turtle hiding. Hit this son of a bitch for me, and don't bother about Student Army."

With both legs together, Xu Deli pulled out his gun and rushed out of the headquarters. Soon, his roars could be heard from outside.

"Quick, enter the base and bring the wounded to the rear. Chen Geng, take your men to the first trench."

Gu Zhutong stepped onto the sandbag on the ground and he could vaguely hear the enemy officers' shouts. In the rain and mist, the figures of the enemies became clearer and clearer.

The gun of the floral organ in Chen Geng's hand was emitting white smoke while it was being washed by the rain. He took out another drum from his waist and changed it into the other one, then called the soldiers to rush to the first ditch before he had time to salute.

In the rain, the visibility was only about 10 metres, and normally, you would have to look at the enemy closely, and by then the enemy would already be in front of your eyes, which was also the reason why Bai Renzhan acted earlier. If the enemy were to land in front of you, it would be very easy for them to break through, but it was also a helpless action.

The situation of the Dongjiang River changed greatly as they surrounded Xing Ning. While Xing Ning was still in the middle of the battle, the Zhang Mingda had made an appearance.

After a few hours of hasty march, Li Boyang could clearly hear the sounds of guns, cannons, cannons and earth in Xing Ning's direction. Among them, the school's unique water supply was so clear that he could hear it clearly. He heaved a sigh of relief, which meant that the battle situation Xing Ning was in was not as critical as he had imagined.

Li Boyang, escorted by the guard squad, rode up the hill and tried to use the telescope to observe. However, the rain was too big for the telescope to see anything, so he turned around and said, "Grab your tongue and bring it back. Get a feel for the enemy's strength, firepower allocation, defense priorities, and where the reserve team is."

"Yes." Sun Changjun went down the hill without a word.

Li Boyang pushed the umbrella that the guard had used to cover him from the rain, jumped off his horse, and stood on top of a big rock, watching Xing Ning's gunshots from afar. His brain worked quickly, thinking about the battle that would follow. The current situation on the battlefield was that both sides were in their own encirclement. The army surrounded Xing Ning, and the enemy troops at the entrance of the Mei County were blocking the army at the north of Ning Jiang.

A clear map of the military situation between the two sides formed in his mind. Xing Ning's terrain was high in the northwest and low in the southeast. Among the hills, the mountaintop was round, the mountaintop was round, the valley was wide and the ridge was low, the slope was gentle, the cut off land was few, the foot of the mountain was mostly cultivated land, terraced fields and valley. In the middle of the hills was the Ningjiang River. The river surface was relatively wide. Due to the continuous heavy rain, the river waters flowed rapidly. There were many bends and lots of shallows. There are more trees, tea forest, small pine forest, shrub and grass, paddy fields at the foot of the mountain, terraced fields.

In this kind of terrain, it was very difficult for the majority of the troops to deploy. Usually, battles would take place between dozens of hills, especially when torrential rains were incessant.

Just then, Sun Changjun and a group of soldiers came over with their 'tongues', and after going out for a while, they saw that Sun Changjun's chest was stained with a layer of blood, seeing Li Boyang look over, Sun Changjun patted his clothes to indicate that he was alright, and said: "Reporting to Battalion Commander, I caught this fellow bringing a group of people from Xing Ning's side, and caught him red-handed."

The soldier shouted and knelt down, Li Boyang waved his hand, and ordered the leading prisoner to raise his head, and interrogated: "You are one of Lin Hu's subordinates, what position are you in?"

The captive raised his head in fear, only to see the young Student Army Battalion Commander staring at him. Although it was raining, under her gaze, he was actually scared to the point that she started to sweat profusely.

Under this gaze, the captive did not dare to hide anything, and tremblingly replied: 'Please spare me, Sir. I am He Da Hu,, Chen Ji, Third regiment, Second Battalion, Fifth regiment, Third platoon, Queue length. I was ordered to bring a few brothers on patrol just now. "

Li Boyang waved his hand and interrupted, he stared at the captive and asked: "Outside of Xing Ning, other than Seventh Brigade, are there any other troops?"

The captive replied as if he was mashing garlic: "Other than our brigade, there's also the ninth mixed brigade towards Zhang Fufeng."

Li Boyang nodded his head, which matched the situation with the last message from the pars communis, and muttered: "What is the strength of the two armies? "How is the firepower allocated, where is the focus of the defense, where is the reserve, and where is the headquarters?"

The captive did not dare to hide anything, and said in detail: "Mei County's Water Gate has two combined forces, a total of five squads of over four thousand people. Three squads are stationed around the Nanji Bridge, one squadron is guarding the Qingpingshan, the reserve team is at the South gate, and the headquarters is at the Leishan mound on the left of the Nanji Bridge. Our brigade has no heavy weapons, only seven heavy machine guns. "

From the looks of it, the enemy did not know that he had rushed over from the Wuhua. Instead of saying that the enemy's defense in the Qingpingshan was against him, it would be more accurate to say that the enemy's defense was against the Zhang Mingda.

Just then, Li Boyang noticed that the sounds of gunfire from Xing Ning's direction died down, and he asked the captive: "How is the battle going, where is Revolutionary Army?"

The captive shook his head and said: "I have been patrolling in the rear lines. I do not know how the battle went, but I have been going back and forth.

Li Boyang waved his hand to order his men to keep the captives, and then had the communication class gather the Company Commander s over. He had already thought of how to fight this battle.

"Battalion Commander, should I go and check?" Sun Changjun wiped his face, not believing the words of the captive.

"No need!" Li Boyang stared at the map, and without looking back, he said, "I let you scratch my tongue to verify one of my thoughts. Now it seems that the conditions for a war of attrition is not sufficient."

Sun Changjun frowned, he did not understand what Li Boyang had said.

Li Boyang waved for him to come over, and pointed to the newly marked positions of the enemy and party, and explained: "In terms of the entire battle situation, destroying ten brigades wasn't as important as taking down Xing Ning as quickly. Once we capture Xing Ning, what will happen to the Huizhou? "

Sun Changjun's eyes lit up and blurted out, "A turtle in a jar."

"The most important thing is whose turtle it is."

Just as the two of them were conversing, Lan Yundong and the rest rushed over, they were talking about the trouble, going up to the top of the mountain and saluting Li Boyang, all of them laughing and saying: "Battalion Commander, how do we fight, quickly give the order."

Li Boyang frowned as he listened to the crowd's chattering. His gaze was extremely terrifying, causing his old classmates to jump in fright. They all kept quiet and didn't dare to laugh anymore.

It was unknown when it happened, but Li Boyang had an imposing aura about him, like a leader who did not get angry. Although the rankings of Revolutionary Army were not clear, when Li Boyang glanced at them, no matter how powerful they were, they did not dare to be rash.

Li Boyang coldly said, "Look at you, what do you look like? Do you look like you're a student of Huangpu? Did I mention that there are some people staying calm during major events?"

Lan Yundong had been following Li Boyang for the longest, so everyone secretly pushed him to leave the place to answer them. He swallowed their saliva, and with his body straightened in the pouring rain, he revealed a serious expression, and said loudly: "Reporting to Battalion Commander, we know our wrongs."
