Chapter 465 Midnight Sneak Attack
After hearing this, Chen Tianhua pretended to be angry and said:
"This general is the governor-general of the Meiguang Autonomous Region. I am a third-rank imperial official. I always keep my word. As an official of the Qing Dynasty, the amount of property seized has nothing to do with the overall situation, and guarding Guanyu is not worth making a fuss about.
!”
When Chen Er saw this, he also yelled angrily:
"Bold Tang Zilin, you are a surrender, and you dare to use your merits to threaten a third-rank official of the imperial court. Don't you want to live anymore? If you don't believe in my young general, then we will break up. You go back to the mountain and see what you can do."
How long will it last?”
Hearing that the two adults were angry, Tang Zilin quickly bowed his hands and kept saying misunderstanding.
Only then did he feel relieved.
In this current predicament, it is absolutely impossible to break out of the encirclement, and it is estimated that external reinforcements are also impossible. I probably looked at the tents where the army camped when I came down the mountain just now. The number of troops coming to surround the mountain is estimated to not exceed 300 people.
I heard that the eldest young master’s new army has a strength of 3,000 people. There are only 10% of the troops here. What about the rest?
You don't need to ask. Are they all suppressing bandits in this area?
Ma'anshan and Hubao Mountain are probably the same as the Clay Buddha crossing the river. They can't protect themselves. How can they come down from the mountain to come for reinforcements? Isn't it like moths rushing to the flames?
If this trend continues, if the siege lasts for a long time and there is no water in the mountains, we will have no choice but to surrender. By then we will end up with both men and money, which is not cost-effective.
Now that I still have some capital, I can strive for some benefits for myself. After passing this village, there won’t be that store anymore.
Tang Zilin rolled his eyes, nodded vigorously and said:
"Your Excellency General, I was rude just now. Please forgive me. From now on, I will follow you. I will speak boldly without delay. We will ask the officers and soldiers to take action after midnight tonight.
Respond."
"The officers and soldiers can go all the way up from this narrow road. There is a pass in front of the top of the mountain, which is guarded by a small army. After the officers and soldiers pass through the pass, they can go straight to the Dragon King Temple on the top of the mountain from the back mountain path. Zhang Renkui is in the temple.
Live here."
Chen Tianhua glanced at Tang Zilin meaningfully and said in a deep voice:
"You are responsible for the surrender of the military camp and so on. Try to make your men surrender as much as possible. No weapons are allowed on site."
"Please don't worry, adults. I will definitely do it, little one."
"Okay, then it's settled," Chen Tianhua said.
"Okay... I'll take my leave now. I'll see you at the mountain pass after midnight." Tang Zilin bowed his head and left immediately. Fei Ge and others saw him leave the camp and watched him disappear into the moonlit night with his short confidant.
"Major General, can this guy do some tricks? He can lure us up the mountain, into their ambush, and then launch a surprise attack."
Looking at Tang Zilin's disappearing back, Chen Er said worriedly.
"It's unlikely. He and Zhang Renkui are not close friends in life or death. I think they are just the same kind of money- and sex-loving bastards who would fall out over a prostitute. They are just scoundrels who can betray anything."
"He understands the current situation better than anyone else. Only by helping our officers and soldiers can he have a way to survive and have wealth to share. Otherwise, he can only be buried with Zhang Renkui. And he is not stupid, and he has made all his wishes come true.
"
Chen Tianhua sneered and analyzed it for Chen Er.
"After the Major General captured Dragon King Peak, did he really want to give him money and food and let him sit in charge of Dragon King Peak?" Chen Er was still confused.
"Humph, this is called a soldier who never tires of deceit. The key depends on his performance and meritorious services. This matter is not urgent."
Chen Tianhua replied ambiguously, and Chen Er seemed to understand a little better, "Well, what the young general said makes sense, shall we touch it tonight? How should we act?"
"Of course we have to touch it. The nights are long and there are many dreams. The superiors are determined to fight to the end. If it rains heavily one day, then we will have to stay here for several months or even half a year? We can't afford it. It is completely inconsistent with the original intention of a quick victory.
, will also have a negative impact on the subsequent suppression of bandits."
"After midnight, I led the Military Investigation Division action team and the general's guards in front to touch them. You led two platoons of soldiers to follow closely behind. We choked their water source, which is equivalent to pinching seven inches of the snake.
They are just at our mercy."
Chen Tianhua rolled his eyes at Chen Er and said confidently.
"No, no... Major General, I'd better take the sergeants from the second platoon up, and you stay here. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, I won't be able to explain it to everyone in the Meiguang Autonomous Region." This is what Chen Eryi heard.
Arrangements were made and objections were raised immediately.
He said it very truthfully. Now Chen Tianhua is the third-rank governor-general, a major general in the Zhejiang New Army, and the leader of hundreds of thousands of people in the autonomous region. If anything goes wrong, the matter will be serious.
"Stop arguing. I know what you are thinking. It's all to protect my safety. But have you ever thought about it? My ability to deal with this is better than yours. Therefore, I am more certain of success when I go up.
You are older, and don't worry, I will not be so stupid and fall into their trap obediently?" Chen Tianhua patted Chen Er on the shoulder and said with a smile.
When it comes to handling such difficult emergencies, in terms of ability, Chen Er knows that he cannot compare with the Major General.
but…
Now that the conversation has come to this point, Chen Er really has nothing to argue with, so he has no choice but to obey.
Could it be that he could stop the eldest young master from going to war? He asked himself that he didn't have the ability or the courage to do so.
Chen Er could only shrug his shoulders and nod in obedience.
"Gu Zhunian, Fei Ge listens to the order and orders you two to quickly gather the sergeants of our headquarters, fully armed, rest now, and follow the general to set off at midnight." Seeing that Chen Er had no objection, Chen Tianhua turned to the two lovers beside him.
Instructions will be issued.
"As ordered." Gu Zhunian and Fei Ge followed the order.
…
Near midnight, Fei Ge led more than 20 guardsmen, and Gu Zhunian led 30 eight members of the first squadron of the Investigation Section Action Squadron. Following Major General Chen Tianhua, they took advantage of the bright moonlight and divided into two columns, quietly
Go to the mountain and touch it.
Halfway through, Chen Tianhua asked Gu Zhunian's action team members to walk in front because they had received special training in this area, while he and Fei Ge's bodyguards followed behind, with about thirty steps between them.
After walking for nearly an hour, I finally saw the pass wall that Tang Zilin mentioned.
The gate wall of Longwang Peak is tall and strong. It runs across the road. The wall is made of thick trees and filled with stone strips in the middle. It is very strong. Except for cannon bombardment, it is actually difficult to break through with firearms.
Of course, it might be possible to insert cluster grenades into the cracks in the stone strips, but there is no such crack.
There are cliffs on both sides of the wall.
This barrier is another dangerous corner that cannot be blocked by one person and cannot be opened by ten thousand people.
From a distance, it can be seen that there are arrow stacks built on this wall to hide the gunmen. The visibility is low at night. No need to guess, there must be machine guns and rifles there.
