At Feng Guozhang's order, Feng Guozhang's mortar immediately stood on the position, and a few sharp whistling sounds were heard, and then several firepower points from the Tang Jian command opposite were removed.

After Feng Guozhang commanded the mortar to blow up several machine guns from Tang Jian's command, the third round of charge followed, shouting and killing, while the bunker at Tang Jian's command position was silent for a moment before launching a fierce counterattack again.

The two sides were fighting in full swing, but Tang Jian had too few troops. Feng Guozhang adopted the tactic of a man-season that he was determined to win. Feng Guozhang's officers and soldiers rushed towards Tang Jian's command like a wave. The front fell down, and more people behind him were added. In this way, Feng Guozhang's troops began to slowly advance towards the position where Tang Jian was.

The guards of the guard battalion said anxiously: "Commander, what should we do?"

Tang Jian said calmly: "Prepare the second plan now!"

"Yes!" The guard hurriedly went down to convey Tang Jian's order.

At this time, Feng Guozhang's troops were almost fifty meters away from the outside of the command center. Tang Jian could even see the enemy's excited expression in the night.

The guard who had just given the order ran back again: "Report to the commander, you're ready!"

"Okay!" Tang Jian sneered, "Feng Guozhang, Feng Guozhang, want to swallow me in one bite? Humph, I want you to break a few front teeth for me before swallowing!"

As the enemy was almost thirty meters ahead of the front position of the command headquarters, Tang Jian waved his hand: "Everyone lies down!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge explosion suddenly sounded between 30 to 50 meters ahead of the front positions of the command center. The explosion was mixed with the enemy's tragic cry, and a wave of weather swept over.

When the shock wave of the huge explosion instantly swept into the command bunker where Tang Jian was, Tang Jian and all the officers and soldiers of the guard battalion had already been hiding behind the solid bunker.

Seeing the dust in front of him, the misty eyes of explosive particles flying in the air, Tang Jian immediately ordered again: "The entire army withdraws to the command headquarters and implement the third plan immediately!"

Taking advantage of the dusty cover, Tang Jian led the guard battalion to retreat into the command center in an orderly manner.

Tang Jian's command was originally a military fortress built in Wuchang when Zeng Guofan encircled and suppressed the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom. The outer walls were all made of dust and had strong defenses. This was one of the reasons why Tang Jian was confident that he could delay Feng Guozhang for two hours with the strength of a battalion.

"Teacher, are you okay?" A guard of Feng Guozhang asked, patting the dust on his body.

Just now when Tang Jian triggered a mine in front of the outer positions, a guard of Feng Guozhang tightly protected Feng Guozhang with his body.

When Feng Guozhang got up from the crowd in a dilemma, he cursed unconsciously. It seemed that Tang Jian was ready and he had already set up an ambush on the periphery of the command center.

Feng Guozhang was bored. He took nearly half an hour to capture the outside of Tang Jian's command. Now there is not much time left for him. If he does not capture Tang Jian's command within two hours, then he must retreat. I believe that Tang Jian's reinforcements are already on the way now!

"Where is the adjutant?" Feng Guozhang asked, cleaning up the dust from his military cap.

The guard pointed to the rear and replied, "Teacher Commander, the adjutant hid behind!"

Feng Guozhang turned around and saw that the white-faced adjutant was hiding behind and shivering. A large area was wet between his legs, which smelled bad.

Feng Guozhang's face darkened and ordered: "Arrang people to wading through the minefield immediately!"

A mine detection team composed of dozens of people quickly slowly touched the battlefield. There were many officers and soldiers' broken limbs and arms on the battlefield, and many of them were blown to the point of blood.

Many people in the mine detection team covered their mouths and noses, trying to prevent the smell of smell from entering their nasal cavity. After just seeing the power of landmines, many members of the mine detection team were slowly advancing forward.

This made them uncontrollably careless. The explosion just now was so tragic that they didn't want to be injured by the explosion.

The distance between fifty and sixty meters was as far as thousands of meters. It took the mine detection team nearly twenty minutes to complete this distance. When they passed through the minefield, they found that the cover was empty. It seemed that Tang Jian's troops had retreated in the chaos during the explosion just now.

Most of the members of the mine detection team arrived opposite the minefield, which was Tang Jian's original outer cover, and they were all limping on the ground. The thrilling twenty minutes left everyone exhausted.

The Thunder Detection Team made a gesture to indicate that the route they had just walked was safe and that Tang Jian's people had all retreated.

After Feng Guozhang received the signal, he immediately ordered the troops to advance, while Feng Guozhang walked at the end. Feng Guozhang had just stood up and heard a loud explosion. It turned out that Tang Jian had buried a bomb in the bunker while retreating.

Feng Guozhang threw off his hat and cursed fiercely: "Everything to encircle the command center!"

Feng Guozhang felt that the battle was really frustrating. The enemy had only three or four hundred people, but he had two regiments, with almost two thousand people. However, it took nearly an hour before entering Tang Jian's command and lost several hundred people.

At this moment, Feng Guozhang was a little panicked. If he didn't take down the command center within two hours, wouldn't he have lost his wife and his troops, and sacrificed his suicide squad for nothing. Now hundreds of casualties are killed here? Feng Guozhang began to regret that he shouldn't have been very happy about his achievements. Why didn't he wait until Wang Shizhen's reinforcements arrive before attacking?

But then I thought that since I had done it anyway, I would do it to the end. Since the loss has been so great, I will take Tang Jian in one fell swoop, and only in this way can I recover the previous losses.

Feng Guozhang gritted his teeth and commanded the remaining troops to surround Tang Jian's command center.

In a moment, Feng Guozhang's troops occupied the outer edge of the command center, and the machine guns were later set to the commanding heights.

Feng Guozhang raised his telescope and saw that the command center was pitch black. He could not find where Tang Jian was hiding. There were only a few shells left by the mortar.

Feng Guozhang raised his hand and looked at the time. Now he has given himself less than an hour of time. If he doesn't attack, he will have to retreat.

At this time, the frightened white-faced adjutant ran up and said in a tremolo, "Teacher, we should retreat! Is the enemy so powerful?"

Feng Guozhang slapped in the face and cursed: "Awesome! I'm going to compete with him today. Isn't it just the same battalion's troops? I don't believe it anymore. My two regiments can't afford to eat these people! How long can he last?"

The white-faced adjutant touched his face and stepped forward again and was about to say something. With a "bang", the white-faced adjutant's head immediately bloomed, and the white-faced adjutant's red body splashed all over Feng Guozhang.

As soon as the gunshot sounded, a guard beside Feng Guozhang immediately rushed Feng Guozhang to the ground and shouted "Be careful!"

In the window somewhere in the command center, Tang Jian secretly regretted. If the adjutant hadn't suddenly blocked Feng Guozhang just now, maybe Feng Guozhang would have been on his head at this moment.

As Feng Guozhang said, Tang Jian’s situation is indeed not good now. The guard battalion did not carry much ammunition, and the battle in the bunker just now consumed most of the time. Now there are less than ten bullets left in each soldier’s armed ammunition belt.

Tang Jian adjusted his combat deployment again, and asked the remaining soldiers to give each of the bullets to several soldiers with better shooting skills, so that they could specifically follow the officers in Feng Guozhang's army. Now Tang Jian began to miss Wang Jianchuan a little when he was there. If Wang Jianchuan was there, then Feng Guozhang would have just died.

Feng Guozhang spit out the mud and sand in his mouth. He had been rescued by this guard twice. Feng Guozhang got up from the ground in a mess and hid behind a bunker. He was still secretly afraid in his heart. If the guard hadn't been smart, he would have died before he could succeed.

Feng Guozhang was curious about the young and clever guard and asked, "What's your name?"

"Report to the division commander, my name is Feng Yuxiang!" the guard replied.

"Okay, I'm still the same clan as me! From today on, you will be my adjutant!" Thinking of the previous adjutant who had died, Feng Guozhang felt that he should arrange someone of his own beside him!

"Thank you, commander!" Feng Yuxiang thanked.

"Feng Yuxiang, do you have any good plans? Capture Tang Jian's command center in one fell swoop and capture Tang Jian alive!" Feng Guozhang glanced at the command center in front of him, and was in trouble for a moment. If this was a strong attack, he could certainly take some time to successfully capture the command center, but Feng Guozhang is now thinking about a quick battle, so he tried to ask Feng Yuxiang.

Feng Yuxiang pondered for a moment and said, "Terminal Commander, Tang Jian is huddled in the command center and cannot be found out, so it is really difficult to capture it for a while. But in my opinion, Tang Jian has only one battalion of troops, and the ammunition has probably been exhausted in the battle just now. He is just trying to fight to trap beasts and delay time!"

"Oh!" Feng Guozhang was delighted. Feng Yuxiang was young but was very observant, almost the same as what he thought, so he asked, "Do you have a good plan?"

Feng Yuxiang smiled confidently: "It's not a good idea, but the teacher can listen to it. Whether it is used or not depends on the teacher's decision!"

"Haha, let's talk about it for now!" Feng Guozhang said happily.

"The division commander can order everyone to aim their firepower at the gate of the command center. When our headquarters attracts all the attention of Tang Jian, the division commander will send another company to break in through the back door of the command center! When Tang Jian saw that the division commander was in charge of the gate, he had insufficient ammunition and manpower, so he would definitely defend most of the power at the gate, so his back door would be empty. At that time, the division commander only ordered people to bring a company, supplemented by heavy machine guns and mortars..." Feng Yuxiang made a gesture of surrounding with both hands.

Feng Guozhang was overjoyed and asked with a smile: "Who do you think you're sending to attack the back door?"

"Feng Yuxiang is not talented, so he is willing to go!" Feng Yuxiang gave a military salute and recommended himself.

Feng Guozhang waved his hand and smiled heartily: "Okay, Feng Yuxiang, as long as he captures Tang Jian alive, I will promote you to the commander of the group immediately!"
