Ning Zhiheng is also from the infantry squad of the Whampoa Military Academy and is not unfamiliar with various terrain arrangements for combat.

From the terrain, further forward is an excellent ambush site. It can be said that as long as your troops enter this slope, if someone suddenly attacks from the high ground, the consequences will be unimaginable.

"Team leader, what's wrong?" Sun Jiacheng's voice came from behind. He was at the back of the team, responsible for preventing the players who fell behind in the dark, but the sudden concealment of the team caught him off guard. He quietly touched him and found Ning Zhiheng to ask.

Ning Zhiheng pointed to the darkness ahead and whispered: "I suspect there is an ambush nearby, so don't act first."

After a while, the personnel in the investigation ahead heard the movement behind him and immediately hid on the spot. Chen Xiang, who was in charge of the investigation, rushed back quickly.

"Team leader! Is there anything wrong with it?"

Ning Zhiheng looked at Chen Xiang and asked, "Have you noticed it before?"

Chen Xiang shook his head and said, "After darkness, our investigation was not effective and nothing was discovered!"

Chen Xiang is also the truth. The marching in the dark, relying on some moonlight alone, the difficulty of reconnaissance is very high. It is often too late to wait until the investigators come into contact with the enemy.

Ning Zhiheng didn't want to explain the reason in detail, and he couldn't explain the reason, but he was the chief military officer and had always been strong. His officers were his old subordinates and were extremely obedient to him, so no matter how he made a decision, he would execute it without fail.

He said, "I always feel that this location is very unsafe. We are now at the west end of the double ponytail. There is a slope on the road ahead, a high ground on the right side of the road, a flat area on the left, and a small river to the left. This is an excellent ambush site.

I suspect there is an ambush on the right high ground. As long as we enter the slope, the enemy will strike us at close range. Even if we retreat to the flat ground on the left, we will be blocked by the river. The entire area is within the range of the rifle. Moreover, the terrain is flat and there is no cover. We will be exposed to the enemy's attack. The enemy can strike us calmly with a condescending height, and the losses will be very heavy."

When several subordinates heard Ning Zhiheng's words, they were puzzled, and the investigators found no abnormalities during the troops' marching, and the team leader suddenly ordered to hide on the spot. The reason was that they felt that it was very unsafe here.

However, everyone blindly trusts Ning Zhiheng's outstanding abilities. Over the past year, Ning Zhiheng's evil performance has left everyone with no room for doubt.

They believed that the team leader must have discovered some suspicion, but they just didn't want to say it.

"Team leader, what should we do now?" Sun Jiacheng asked.

He was born in a military reconnaissance force and was not unfamiliar with such small-scale combat. Now it depends on Ning Zhiheng’s intention. Whether to fight or not, what strategic purpose should be achieved if he fights, is it annihilation or defeat? The strategic purpose is different and the fighting style is different!

Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "First we need to confirm whether there are enemies ambushing us, and then prepare for annihilation. If it is the Japanese, then even if they are in trouble, this highland will be their burial place.

Now let me tell you the specific arrangements. Lao Sun, you will be here to lead forty people and send a few team members to wait on our way. If our transport vehicles pass by, stop them. The Japanese are likely to come for them.

In addition, you arranged the attack location on the spot and waited for our signal. I took the main force down the trail, walked around from the side to the rear of the high ground, and conducted reconnaissance.

If it is really a Japanese, then start attacking and drive the Japanese off the high ground. When you hear the gunshots, block this direction. How much can you eliminate it?

If it weren't for the Japanese ambush, we would withdraw it if there was a false alarm."

Everyone nodded, but Chen Xiang, who was on the side, had some questions. He was also a meticulous figure and asked: "The Japanese army has strong combat capabilities, and these plainclothes teams are even more elite. They are in a high ground, easy to defend but difficult to attack. What else should we do if your attack is not smooth?"

Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "That doesn't matter. Don't forget that this is Pudong, and it is still in our hands. There are still tens of thousands of troops stationed along the Huangpu River. If the attack is not smooth, we will waste our time with them and send a message to the garrisoned Eighth Army to ask them to reinforce us.

The longer it takes, the more beneficial it is for us. When our reinforcements arrive, these Japanese will have to wait to die!

Here I would like to remind everyone that small-scale encounters are different from battlefield position wars. Our focus is to reduce our casualties while destroying the enemy. As for what position they occupy, we don’t care about, so the high ground they occupy is not important to us. Once the battle starts, fight if you can, fight, and don’t fight or rush hard, drag them to death. If they break through the siege, don’t force them too much. Try to kill the enemy as much as possible and bite them at a distance. They can’t run away. There is no need for our brothers to have unnecessary casualties. Do you understand?"

Ning Zhiheng's purpose of fighting is very clear. If it is really an ambush from the Japanese plainclothes team, just keep an eye on them. I can't escape sooner or later in my own defense zone, but I only have so many people under my command. The Japanese army was very combat-effective in the early stages of the war. He didn't want to be greedy for this little credit and ruin his subordinates too much.

Everyone understands people, and they know Ning Zhiheng's meaning as soon as they hear it, and they feel relieved. Such a way of fighting has the least casualties.

After all, Ning Zhiheng really cannot become a good general who leads troops to fight. As the saying goes, a true general can endure and face heavy casualties from his subordinates, rationally judge gains and losses, and finally achieve the expected goals.

But Ning Zhiheng seemed cruel and ruthless, but that was to the Japanese and those who could be killed, but he always cherished and cared for his relatives and brothers, just like he did to his own family.

Watching the living life around you is a very painful thing for Ning Zhiheng.

After the matter was arranged, Ning Zhiheng took Hong Nan, the guide who was most familiar with the terrain, and 120 team members, and left the avenue and started to detour from the next path.

Under the leadership of the guide Hong Nan, it took half an hour before they successfully got to the back of the high ground.

Ning Zhiheng immediately arranged several shooting points and arranged firepower, while he led Zuo Gang and the other two to investigate.

Ning Zhiheng has very good eyesight. As long as there is a faint moonlight, he can see it very clearly. He observes the surroundings clearly and then goes up the direction he chooses.

Ning Zhiheng soon arrived at a place and stopped. He pointed to a place on the left in front. Zuo Gang quickly focused his attention and observed carefully. He soon discovered two figures sitting leaning against a tree.

From time to time, they stretched out their heads to see what was happening around them, and then retracted.

These were two secret whistles. Zuo Gang looked at Ning Zhiheng and couldn't help but admire him secretly. With such a distance, the team leader could keenly detect that he could never do it. Ning Zhiheng signaled that the two of them touched them quietly.

These two secret whistles were just routinely arranged to be alerted. The Japanese plainclothes team has always been ambushing and plotting against others, but has never been attacked and is not too alert.

"Nakane, how long do you think we have to wait here? It's been so ambushing for so long?" asked a man in Japanese.

"I don't know, but I heard from the captain that the supply of the Chinese army usually passes once every ten days, and it will only take these two days to calculate. Be patient!" Another person also replied in a low voice in Japanese.

The two of them were talking in a low voice, from time to time, stretching their heads out to look into the high ground, but they only felt that the wind was coming from behind their heads, and they were all lost by a heavy blow.

Ning Zhiheng and Zuo Gang took action to solve these two people at the same time. Ning Zhiheng heard the two people's whispers very clearly. It was confirmed that this was the Japanese ambushing the Chinese army's transportation convoy, but they met their own troops in advance.

Fortunately, my reaction was timely and stopped the troops from moving forward in advance. It was not discovered by the enemy, otherwise the consequences would be serious.

It has been confirmed that it is a Japanese. Ning Zhiheng used a gesture to signal Zuo Gang to go back and lead the army up, and continued to search nearby and clear the secret whistle.

Zuo Gang turned around, and Ning Zhiheng searched everywhere with his superhuman perception, and finally found that there was a secret whistle in the other direction. The two of them were hiding behind a rock, and they leaned out from time to time to observe the situation around them.

He slowly lurked over, but this time it was not as smooth as before. Just as the gravel under his feet made a slight sound, a secret whistle immediately turned around and looked behind him.

Ning Zhiheng did not hesitate at all, and the short blade in his hand flew out. A cold light penetrated deeply into the entire neck with an extremely powerful force. The blade cut off his trachea, let out a muffled groan, and fell down weakly.

While falling out the short blade, Ning Zhiheng swept forward quickly. Just as another secret whistle reacted and reached out to draw the gun, Ning Zhiheng had already jumped in front of him, and hit the secret whistle directly with one heavy punch. The sound of a broken sternum in his chest made a huge penetration force almost shattered his heart. Before he could spit out a mouthful of blood, he was covered by another big hand, and his body fell backwards and was pressed tightly on the rocks.

Ning Zhiheng confirmed that the secret whistle in his hand had died. When he loosened his hand, the body of the secret whistle slid to the ground.

Then he turned around to the dark whistle that was falling to the ground, reached out to cover his mouth, and hit his heart with a heavy punch. The dark whistle, which was already in a state of dying, suddenly died. Ning Zhiheng finally pulled out the short blade that had penetrated his neck deeply, wiped the blood on the dark whistle, and turned around and left.
