"Captain, a horse team was found in front of him, with about fifty or sixty people!"

The Rangers in front discovered the target and immediately sent someone to return to report to the regiment commander Han Fuyuan!

Han Fuyuan's regiment was the advance force that raided the Wangye Temple, mainly to clear obstacles for the troops behind, and to contain all herders and horse gangs along the way who might have leaked information!

"Order the cavalry company to attack and take it down quickly. The main thing is not to resist the opposition, so don't hurt them!"

"yes!"

Although I have noticed that I have not taken the residential areas of herders, I have still accommodated many people along the way.

In order to ensure the secret of the raid, Han Fuyuan had to take them on the road. Fortunately, these herdsmen were cooperative and did not cause much trouble!

Although the more than fifty-man cavalry team were equipped with some defensive weapons, they had no strength to fight back against hundreds of elite cavalrymen with guns and live ammunition!

The owner of the horse team is Anatai. He has been doing business on the Inner Mongolia grassland for a long time. He brought silk, cloth and tea from the mainland in, replaced it with fur and cattle and sheep. He saw a team with the "Blue Sky and White Sun" hat badge suddenly appear.

He realized that things might be wrong. He was a horse team, not a bandit, so he did not order the shooting!

"Captain, this is the master of the horse team, Anatai!"

Anatai was taken to Han Fuyuan and bowed!

"The heaven of immortality is above you, respected sir, where are you going?"

"Anatai, are you coming from the Prince's Temple?" Han Fuyuan asked.

"Yes, the little man just came out from there!"

"Tell me about the situation there?" Han Fuyuan asked.

"Sir, are you going to the Prince's Temple?"

"Stop talking nonsense. Answer our regiment commander's question quickly!" Han Fuyuan's guard shouted softly.

"Is the commander want to know the deployment of the troops in the Prince Temple?"

"Oh. I didn't expect you to know a lot. Tell me, how many Xing'an troops are stationed in the Prince Temple now?"

"I don't know the specific numbers very well. There is a security regiment in the city, a cavalry outside the city, and then the police and anti-smuggling team!"

"Is there any movement?"

"No, very calm, as usual, but it seemed like a cavalry left the barracks this morning!"

"A cavalry left the barracks in the morning. Where is it?" Han Fuyuan was shocked and asked quickly.

"Don't know!"

"Captain, will this situation be reported to the brigade commander immediately?"

"Well, report it now, hurry up!" Han Fuyuan nodded, "Anatai, your horse team should follow us for the time being. Is there any problem?"

"Sir, we just came out of the Prince's Temple, this..."

"Stop talking nonsense. Let you follow me, and you follow me!"

"For your safety, please follow us, otherwise the people behind you will not be sure to do anything to you!" Han Fuyuan's words meant both reminders and warnings!

"Yes, yes, sir, let's listen to you!" Anatai naturally has the ability to command this horse team, and he knows better what it means to be a hero!

"Commander-in-chief, Commander Han, telegram, Letian met a horse team halfway through. The owner of the horse team revealed an information to him. This morning, a cavalry went out from the cavalry camp in the Prince Temple, and his whereabouts were unknown!"

"Contact the team that sneaked into the Prince's Temple immediately to find out the situation!" Li Haiqing immediately ordered.

A moment later, the communication soldier once again came to Li Haiqing.

"The team reported that a cavalry did leave the camp this morning, with about one battalion. Maybe he was out hunting, but he has not returned yet!"

"Why only reported it now?"

"The team said that this is a common thing. Han Sewang, the commander of the Second Cavalry Army of Xing'an Army, likes hunting very much. He has been even more diligent recently and usually returns in the evening, so he did not report it!"

"Don't you have to report everything in detail?"

"Tell the team to inform the latest situation every half hour!" Li Haiqing thought for a while and ordered.

"yes!"

"Send a telegram to Brigade Commander Gong to tell him the situation and let him pay attention. If he encounters this cavalry battalion, he can avoid it, but he cannot avoid it, and annihilate it on the spot!" Li Haiqing changed his mind and ordered again.

After the reorganization meeting of the Harbin East Anti-Japanese Headquarters, Lu Shan also turned his attention to the raid of the Prince Temple.

All kinds of news have been summarized here. Lu Shan usually only asks about the command of the frontline soldiers. After all, the frontline commander has more knowledge about the situation than the commander-in-chief sitting at home, and he reacts the fastest!

As long as there is no deviation in the general direction, he will only listen to various telegrams and messages coming from the front and will not interfere in command!

"It's four o'clock in the afternoon, and it's dark in less than an hour. Now Li Haiqing's troops have not entered the attack position yet. Please ask where Gong Changhai has been?"

"yes!"

"Report to General Lu, Li Haiqing, that Han Fuyuan's regiment has reached the predetermined position, is repairing and preparing for an attack, and ruled out the vanguards to investigate the Xing'an Army's positions!"

"Brave Commander Gong reported that they are now close to Hanshan, less than ten kilometers away from Hanshan!" The communications staff reported, "If the cavalry charges, it will be there in ten minutes. Also, they did not find the cavalry, and the range of the rangers' reconnaissance has expanded to fifteen kilometers!"

Where did the cavalry of this battalion go?

Not only Li Haiqing was thinking about this issue, but Lu Shan was also thinking about this issue. Although there were not many cavalrymen in a battalion, if they came out at critical moments and at critical positions, it would affect the end of the war!

"The team reported that there was no return of the cavalry battalion in the morning!"

"This is strange. If we cannot determine the location of this cavalry battalion, we cannot devote all our attacks, and it will inevitably be separated from our process of capturing the Prince's Temple!" Li Haiqing couldn't help but reveal a hint of anxiety!

"Let Han Fuyuan send the horse team businessman named Anatai here!" Li Haiqing led the brigade to the southeast of the Wangye Temple and set off a temporary command center in the shade of a valley!

"yes!"

"Anatai, right? I am Li Haiqing!" Li Haiqing introduced himself.

When Anata heard this, his eyes showed a hint of surprise. It was obvious that he was very familiar with the name "Li Haiqing"!

"The chief is Li Haiqing!"

"Why, there is a second Li Haiqing in this huge Northeast?" Li Haiqing smiled.

"Your name has been spread throughout the Northeast for a long time. Anatai has long admired Daming, but he has never seen Chief Li, and he is a little surprised!"

"Anatai, I heard that there was a cavalry leaving the Prince Temple this morning. Can you still remember that they were heading in that direction?"

"I didn't see it specifically. It was seen by my subordinates. There were a large number of people, with hundreds of people. The direction seemed to be facing south!" Anatai recalled carefully.

"southward?"

"How many days have you been in the Prince's Temple?" Li Haiqing asked with a frown.

"One week, that is, seven days, our horse team rules, stay at most seven o'clock in a city and leave!" Anatai replied.

"Is your horse team stationed?" Li Haiqing asked.

"Yes, our station is in Kailu. This time we plan to go to Baicheng to see if we can build a stronghold there." Anatai explained.

"Okay, thank you, Anatai!" Li Haiqing thanked, "Come here, please go down and rest!"

"Commander-in-chief, it's less than an hour since the attack. You see, it's almost dark. We have to make a decision quickly!" Chief of Staff Deng Wen reminded.

"If we don't figure out where the cavalry of this battalion is going, once we launch an attack, they suddenly break out in the dark, this..."

"Commander-in-chief, I don't think it's like a leak. If the enemy knows our raid plan, it's impossible to go out of the military camp in a swagger. They can do it secretly. They can catch us off guard at that time. Maybe they really went out to hunt and walked too far to be able to come back?" Deng Wen analyzed.

"What you analyzed is also reasonable. At this point, we cannot hesitate. Leave a cavalry company as a reserve team. Even if the enemy's cavalry comes out, we can still stop it and all the rest of the troops will be put into the attack!" Li Haiqing said decisively.

"Don't leave one more reserve team?"

"If you don't stay, the lion fights the rabbit, and you still use all your strength. Although the enemy is not as good as us, you must use all your strength to defeat with one blow!" Li Haiqing said.

"good!"

"Once the battle begins, the command center will follow the troops forward, and all non-combatants in the brigade will be allocated weapons. This battle must bring out the might of our 12th Brigade!"

"yes!"

The red glow in the west sank into the horizon bit by bit, and darkness soon enveloped the earth.

The Wangye Temple is the capital of Xing'an League, also known as Ulanhot. It means "red city" in Mongolian. It is located in the hinterland of the Korqin grassland. It was named after the third generation of Zasaktu County Prince Eqier of the Qing Dynasty.

Since the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the Japanese have won unprecedented victories, and their ambitions have completely expanded. In the infamous "Tanaka Memorial", the invasion of Manchuria and Mongolia was regarded as a national policy of Japan.

The Japanese's covetousness of Mongolia has long existed. If they hadn't been able to eat a fat man in one go, they would have sent troops to Inner Mongolia!

There are also countries that are eyeing Mongolia, the neighbor in the north, the Soviet Union, who said they wanted to return China's territory, but secretly sent troops to Outer Mongolia to split Outer Mongolia.

Kanto, Japan not only provided guns and ammunition to arm the Mongolian army, but also sent an advisory team to help the Mongolian train the army, open some schools, infiltrate Mongolia in all aspects, military, education, and economic aspects. Under the banner of helping the Mongolians, in order to achieve the goal of completely occupying Mongolia, naturally, it will not hesitate to win over the princes and princes at all levels of Mongolia to cater to their needs, and oppress and lower-level Mongolian people!

Wangye Temple is a city that the Japanese attach great importance to. It is not only an important geographical location, but also has very important political significance.
