Dongshanling, within the Hedong bandit gang.

After Xiang Kuan's death, Qu Ding's men quickly took control of the situation and saw Qu Ding with his back turned to him in the Juyi Hall: "Second Master... No, Master, congratulations! From now on, this Hedong Gang will

The first spot belongs to you!"

"What are you talking about?" Qu Ding turned around and looked at the bandit with sharp eyes: "The boss was attacked by the Starlight Armed Forces, and his body is still cold. What you said is extremely treasonous!"

"Oh, I really deserve a beating!" The bandit slapped himself in the face and responded: "Second Master, the Starlight armed sneak attack team has been completely defeated by us. It's a pity that all the personal guards of the boss were killed.

, died in the battle against the Starlight Armed Forces."

"All killed?" Qu Ding raised his eyebrows: "Isn't this a bit strange? The master's personal guards are all elites, how can there be no one left alive?"

The bandit thought for a while and responded wittily: "The real situation is that some of the guards of the big boss were bribed. They collaborated with foreign enemies and secretly sent the Starlight armed sneak attack team into Dongshan Ridge, and cooperated with the enemy to attack and kill them.

He became the boss and then ran away with the Starlight Armed Forces."

"call!"

Qu Ding let out a breath: "Inform the brothers below about this news. How many people can the gang use now?"

The bandits responded: "We have lost dozens of the people we brought back, plus the team defending Dongshan Ridge, there are still close to 900 people."

Qu Ding frowned: "What are we and theirs? We are all members of the Hedong Gang. The leader is gone, but you have divided the camps so clearly. Are you trying to seize the throne?"

After being reminded by Qu Ding, the bandits quickly changed their words: "We, it's us!"

Qu Ding lit a cigarette: "Notify me, let the troops be stationed at Kucong Mountain, and prepare to intercept the Xingguang armed team. Since the leader died in an assassination by the enemy, I will take over the command of the Hedong Gang."

The bandit couldn't help but interjected: "Second Master, do we really want to continue fighting? Now that the Hedong Gang is under your control, we can order the team to make a strategic retreat. In this way, no one will

Say something!"

"I seized power because I was dissatisfied with the way Xiang Kuan managed the gang! I held on because we are still brothers. I have to hold on to Dongshan Ridge where he defeated me! Even if I can't hold it, I can't give it away without resistance.

Give it away!" Qu Ding's face became serious: "I want to take charge of the Hedong Gang to make it better, not to make it my private army! People like you will never know how to realize it.

The taste of ambition.”

"I don't need to know these things. As long as I can serve you well, Second Master, I will be satisfied." The bandit smiled and said, "I immediately ordered the team to assemble at Kukong Mountain."

…

The sun is hanging in the sky.

As the temperature in the air continues to rise, the main offensive force of the Starlight Armed Forces has entered the territory of Dongshan Ridge.

In the marching team, the bandit who was the guide rushed to Hu Yihan and said to him: "Sir, we have entered the jurisdiction of Dongshanling. If we climb over the hill in front, we have officially entered the territory of the gang."

Hu Yihan raised his telescope and looked at a bare mountain in front of him: "Is this hill suitable for an ambush?"

"This place is not good. The hillside is gentle and cannot stop the mobile troops at all. Therefore, the first line of defense for the gang must be placed in Kukelong Mountain." The guide explained: "Kulushan Mountain is a continuous mountain range, and it is also the front.

The only way to enter Dongshan Ridge is that the mountain is very strange. The entire mountain looks like a hollow. There are caves and large holes everywhere, which can form natural defense lines and troop garrison caves.

Moreover, there is a canyon in front of Cave Mountain, which looks like a sideways 'eye'. There are only two natural passages in the canyon to the opposite side, so the opponent only needs to focus their firepower on these two roads to block it.

The enemy's frontal attack."

After listening to the guide's response, Hu Yihan felt that Kukong Mountain was definitely a tough nut to crack. He pinched his chin and asked, "Is there any way to avoid this place?"

"Yes!" the guide nodded: "We have a total of three attacking teams here. The other two teams are in the direction where they can bypass this place, but they also have to go through Wanrenyan and Wave Ridge respectively, both of which are easy to defend but difficult to defend.

The place to attack.”

Hu Yihan waved his hand: "I'm not talking about this kind of large-scale detour. I'm talking about whether our team can avoid the frontal shooting from Caongkong Mountain."

"Absolutely impossible." The guide vowed: "Originally, there was a canyon around Kucong Mountain that could be passed, but it had been blown up by the Hedong Gang. The reason why the Hedong Gang based on Dongshan Ridge was because of the terrain here.

The origin of this name is also because as long as this place is not lost, gangsters can make a comeback."

After hearing this, Hu Yihan said to the officers beside him: "Although most of the gang's forces are contained in the Xinge Desert, we cannot ignore their defensive strength and let the artillery units set off first to choose their positions and prepare for the big attack.

The troops charge for support. Also, when charging, don't let people run forward like a swarm. We only have two battalions here. If they are fully deployed, the opponent only needs two heavy machine guns, which is enough to block us all.

It’s on the other side of the cliff.”

The Starlight Armed Forces marched very quickly. The team crossed the hills and Cave Mountain appeared in front of them.

Just as the guide described, in front of the cave mountain is a canyon hundreds of meters long. There are two naturally formed roads in the middle, about ten meters wide. Opposite is the cave mountain, which is tens of meters high. This mountain is like

A piece of cheese lying on the horizon, full of holes, makes people feel scalp numb.

Hu Yihan stood at a high place, using a high-magnification telescope, he could already see inside the larger cave on the opposite side. The bandits had set up machine gun positions, and there were direct-fire field cannons clearly displayed in some caves, facing the road leading to the opposite side.

road.

Hu Yihan looked at the terrain and firepower configuration on the opposite side, clenching and unclenching his palms repeatedly to relieve the anxiety in his heart.

After several days of fighting, he has become numb to life and death. Since it is a war, he is not afraid of sacrifice.

But what he is worried about now is that even if the team pays casualties, it will be difficult to bring down the cave mountain.

The mountain range in front is similar to the dam he set up in the Kujiao Canyon.

The Starlight Armed Forces used that embankment to eliminate hundreds of Hedong bandits at the cost of only dozens of casualties.
