Chapter 453, Possible Disconnection
Previously, in the entire 178th Fortress Force, there were still more than ten units that had secretly left the forward base, for example, Zhou Yinglong had informed the Sharp Knife Company to go and fight the Beiwan River, and also pretended to go out for cross-country stretching exercises, and then never returned to the camp, and for example, the independent regiment that Xu Xianchu was originally a part of went to the west of the Heishi River.
Such troops, in fact, were all designed to make it difficult for the spies to figure out the situation, and once these troops left the forward base, all communications were controlled by Wang Fengyuan’s side.
Moreover, in order to make the spies believe it, Zhang Jinglin even didn’t eat for two days, starving himself thin in a circle.
Locked Li Xiang is also this time of the matter, this Li Xiang even at dinner time intentionally or unintentionally asked the person in charge of the cafeteria Lin Yuzhe: Commander recently how the amount of food?
As an infantry brigade commander, Li Xiang did not have the power to participate in the development of battle plans, so he used Zhang Jinglin’s meal to guess whether Fort 178 had a backhand.
Simply because the entire 178th Fortress knew that Commander Zhang’s meal quantity would plummet when he encountered a difficult situation.
If he didn’t catch the spy, then the plan could only be hidden in his heart, but again, Zhang Jinglin knew very well that he couldn’t stop Ren Xiaosu if he didn’t reveal the plan.
After catching the spy, Ren Xiaosu had already left the Pointed Sword Company and could not be contacted.
So after catching the spy Wang Feng Yuan immediately approached Zhang Jinglin and asked what to do about Ren Xiaosu.
But by then it was too late, and Zhang Jinglin could only hope that Ren Xiaosu could survive on her own.
Wang Fengyuan whispered, “It’s a good thing he placed the Sharp Dagger Company, or else the entirety of this meritorious unit would have been wiped out, and I’d have a bad conscience for the rest of my life.”
“Expected,” Zhang Jinglin said calmly.
Zhang Jinglin knew deep down that when Ren Xiaosu decided to go to the 146th Barrier, he would definitely place the Pointed Sword Company in a safe place, just as this teenager had placed Li Xiaoyu and Yan Liuyuan in the market town school in the first place, Zhang Jinglin knew this teenager too well.
The result was just as he imagined, Ren Xiaosu went to 146 Barrier alone, and Wang Fengyuan’s side had already gotten the exact news, their informant hid in a residential building and saw that the 146 Garrison was searching for Ren Xiaosu in a big way.
Ren Xiaosu, on the other hand, had killed his way out of the siege and was nowhere to be found.
Zhang Jinglin looked at Wang Fengyuan and calmly said, “Even if he blames me, I’ll admit it, my duty calls for it, so I can’t afford to be indecisive.”
For Zhang Jinglin, compared to Ren Xiaosu alone and the entire 178 fortress, he weighs the importance of the more important.
Wang Fengyuan was stunned, he was worried that this this matter would create a gap between that teenager and Fortress 178?
Wang Fengyuan looked at Zhang Jinglin, but realized that Zhang Jinglin was not as open-minded as he said.
It was only that he was pretending to be a spy before, but now he was really nervous.
……
The battle in the Gobi wasn’t going to end that quickly, the Zong’s troops that were responsible for crossing the Gobi this time were extremely strong, even if they encountered an ambush they were still able to form a tenacious defense force in the first place, fighting and retreating as they went.
This was Zong’s hope for the entire war effort, so each soldier not only had to pass strict political vetting, but also had to go through extremely grueling military training.
But none of this surprised Xu Xianchu, who had long known what kind of troops he was going to face.
As a matter of fact, there were still some omissions in the plan for the 178th Fortress side, for example, a main force Transcendent like Xu Xianchu never showed up on the front battlefield, would it cause any bad effects on the plan?
But Zhang Jinglin had no choice, Xu Xianchu’s level of command in small-scale military operations, as well as his Transcendent ability to attack and defend in small-scale battles were all too good, so Xu Xianchu was inevitably the best candidate to command the Gobi ambush.
However, Zhang Jinglin and Xu Xianchu did not expect is that Ren Xiaosu help them to make up this link ……
Of course, if Xu Xianchu knew about this, whether he would thank Ren Xiaosu or not is still a matter of opinion.
The battle on the Gobi was still going on, and Zong had been waiting for this day for a long time, while Zhang Jinglin was doing the same.
Only if Zong was desperate to use the Gobi as their last chance to turn the tide, then it could only be said that they had made a mistake in their calculations.
In fact, the 178th Fortress had already won a large portion of the war up to this point.
After Zhang Jinglin’s ploy of inviting the king into the jar was completed, the battle on the Wu Chuan Mountain side suddenly made significant progress.
When they had seized the high ground earlier, Fortress 178 had also fought hard, and at that time, the Zong generals still felt that Fortress 178 was nothing more than that.
As a matter of fact, 178 Fortress’s weaponry was not as good as the Zong’s, and the Zong’s numbers were still more than twice as many as 178 Fortress’s, but the Zong generals selectively ignored these conditions and only felt that being able to defeat 178 Fortress proved that they were more powerful.
But during that stormy battle, the Zongs suddenly realized that the 178th Fortress troops looked like they couldn’t be defeated.
No matter how many troops you pressed up, those 178 Fortress soldiers who had already reached their limit were able to hold out a little longer.
Some positions changed hands many times, but the actual figures were that it took 2 or 4 hours for the 178th Fortress to knock down Zong’s position, while it might take a day or a night for Zong to fight back.
And there were clearly very few 178th Fortress soldiers in that position, and even if they barely managed to fight their way down, the Zong forces would realize that there were people in that position holding explosive packages pretending to be corpses, and then they would die with them.
This kind of war that never saw an end, as if the enemy that could never be defeated, made people feel fearful.
……
Right after the successful ambush of the Zong’s forces on the Gobi side, Zhang Jinglin immediately ordered the mechanized forces that were previously under repair to fully engage in the battlefield, Zhou Yinglong had already desperately tried to open a safe passage for the mechanized forces, and these mechanized forces were like the last straw that overwhelmed the Zong’s forces in Wu Chuan Mountain.
And what many people did not expect was that in just three days, the pontoon bridge over the Black Stone River had already been built again, but originally it was said that it would take fifteen days for the mechanized forces to pass through.
Zhou Yinglong in the rear recuperation, eating a meal it is a face smashed in the rice bowl fell asleep, the rear medical soldiers rushed to carry him away, with scissors cut open his clothes only to find that the newly promoted brigade commander is covered with fine wounds, thigh inserted two do not know when the shrapnel, have not been taken down.
The nurse who was cleaning his wounds next to him felt shocked at the sight of these wounds.
There was also a soldier’s wife who was a nurse in the temporary medical clinic, and his wife looked at his wounds while bandaging them and cried and scolded him for his carelessness.
The soldier impatiently said, “Don’t cry okay, bandage me up I still have to return to the line, the positions are all fought down by us, now we are looking at victory, absolutely can’t let those little bastards steal the credit!”
“Roll roll roll roll, hurry up and go steal your credit, go home and then settle the score with you,” the nurse tied a bow to the gauze and blew her husband away with tears.
