Under the leadership of Liu Lang, about 600 officers and soldiers of the Red Regiment rushed towards Zhaojiagou in a mighty manner.
Less than three miles away from Zhaojiagou, the future Lieutenant General Daya's reconnaissance combat squad came from the distance. Liu Lang couldn't help but smile slightly. It seemed that Lieutenant General Daya was still uneasy and was taking him there.
When he was looking for the young grandmother, he quietly sent an order to his combat squad to go to Zhaojiagou for investigation first. They left at least an hour ahead of them. It seems that the information that should be investigated by now should be almost done.
However, I don’t know what their detection level is.
However, only five people from the originally ten-person combat squad came over now, and when they reached forty meters away, the horrified expressions on their faces clearly showed that they had been greatly frightened.
"The entire army has stopped advancing." Because the main leaders of the First Red Regiment were in a meeting, Lieutenant General Daya, who was temporarily in charge of the military command of the treat operation, suddenly turned dark when he saw this situation. He yelled angrily and at the same time quietly touched his hand.
Pistol in waist.
Liu Lang was sure that as long as the leading infantry squad leader named Lin Yongcheng shouted "enemy attack", the future Lieutenant General Daya who had just been chatting and laughing with him would pull out a gun and point it at his head.
Of course, that's impossible.
The young black man who had been accompanying Liu Lang all this time also tightened his expression, and his pupils showed a rare flash of panic. It was hard for him to believe that Liu Shang, whom he trusted so much, would go to this shabby place to design his own people.
No one shouted an enemy attack, but the red squad leader who ran over at the head did not know what stimulation he had. He even forgot to salute and report to his direct leader, Lieutenant General Daya. He just stood in front of the team and stared at Liu Lang.
Panting.
"Lin Yongcheng, has something happened? Where are the other five people?" Future Lieutenant General Daya strode forward and asked almost in a roar.
"Company Commander, my God! It's incredible." The red squad leader looked at his leader, with an expression of disbelief on his face. Suddenly he seemed to remember what his leader was asking him, and hurriedly replied: "Company Commander,
Liu Laoliu and the other five are still watching at the mouth of the ditch! Nothing happened. No, no, something happened. There are many people, and there are many... Company Commander, you will know after you go and see it."
"You guy who doesn't deserve a seat on dog meat, I'll settle the score with you later." The future Lieutenant General Daya's face turned red, he pointed at his subordinate who was correcting his incoherent words, waved his hand behind him and shouted: "Keep going."
At this moment, he somewhat understood the meaning of his very incoherent subordinate, which meant that Liu Shang sent a lot of things, so much that his squad leader was a little frightened.
On the march, Liu Yaozu had already whispered to him about Liu Shang's origins. The brigade leader and even the column leader speculated that Liu Shang, a businessman who had traded guns and medicines in short supply for tungsten ore, had come to Gansu specifically to fight again.
I want to build a good relationship with them and want to continue to cooperate.
However, no matter how hard they try, they still can't figure out how this businessman can cooperate with them at this time. It may be a bit exaggerated to say that the current Red Army is completely impoverished, because after all, each of them still has a suit of clothes and a gun. However,
What qualifications do they have to negotiate business with others now? They don't even know where their next destination is.
However, those who are barefoot are never afraid of those who wear shoes. Anyway, now that they have nothing, they don’t care what Liu Shang likes about them. They just keep whatever supplies they are given and talk about other things later. Maybe others are the same.
Why do red businessmen who yearn for revolution just want to give it away for free? Although this reason is extremely fanciful, even the big bosses themselves have only flashed it in their heads, and naturally they will not say it out loud.
However, this reason happened to be real, and the businessman in their eyes really just wanted to give it away for free.
Thinking that he had almost pulled out a gun and shot someone to death just because he saw the panic of these bastards who had never seen the world before, the future Lieutenant General Daya was somewhat embarrassed. After giving the order, he took him with him
The few soldiers who almost stared him to death walked at the front of the team and stopped chatting with the few acquaintances who were still following behind.
"Hee hee" Comrade Yang Hongman covered his mouth and secretly laughed, and then said apologetically to Liu Lang: "Liu Shang, don't blame Company Commander Liang. Company Commander Liang used to be Battalion Commander Liang. He fought many battles along the way. His subordinates
The more he fights, the fewer his comrades are. Now every one of his soldiers is his treasure. If there are a few missing at once, he will definitely become anxious."
Liu Lang smiled slightly, shook his head firmly and said, "I'm a very stingy person. If anyone shows his teeth to me, I will definitely glare at him. When it's time to treat guests, Captain Liang will definitely have to eat a lot less."
The young black-faced man and Comrade Yang Hongman were both shocked, and then they both laughed. Obviously, Liu Lang was not really angry, but he was also a young and energetic type, and he would give some to a certain company commander later.
Little snag.
However, neither the young black-faced one nor the future Lieutenant General Daya who was embarrassed to be walking at the front didn't know how big Liu Lang's little stumbling block would be. It was so big that a certain future Lieutenant General would stand for two days in a row.
He was waiting "obsessively" at the door of the barracks for Liu Lang's return. If Liu Tuanzuo came back two days later, he would be dead.
Zhaojiagou is not very far from the Hong Yituan's camp, only an hour's journey away. Everyone had seen the mountains of Zhaojiagou as early as ten miles ago, but they just looked at the mountains and ran away, and there was nothing going on.
On a decent road, after meeting the reconnaissance team and walking for half an hour, the group finally approached the mouth of the ditch in great force.
The surroundings were quiet, and as the reconnaissance team said, there was no enemy in this place, because no one would come to this quiet location.
The mountains in Gansu are not as high as the central mountainous areas and densely forested. They are rich in products. Not only can you hunt for food, but you can also make a full meal by picking some wild vegetables. The mountains and rocks here are all jagged and full of rocks, which grow the most.
There are only some weeds and shrubs, and even no grass in many places. If you can see a hare, you have accumulated a lot of virtue in your previous life. Anyway, along the way, except for a few autumn queens, the weeds on the roadside flew up.
There were no grasshoppers in sight, not even a hairy one was seen, and the product was so poor that it rivaled that of a large grassland.
Seeing his company commander and his team approaching in a mighty manner, a few five soldiers who had been staring straight into the ditch hurriedly ran over. After a few simple questions, Lieutenant General Daya couldn't help but stand on the spot.
The reason is very simple. In the hinterland of the ravine eight hundred meters away from the mouth of the ditch, they saw a large number of mules and horses. In addition to mules and horses, there was also a long row of straw sheds. Of course, there were at least 400 grooms and merchants. When they saw them coming,
After asking for their identity, the leading businessman was very polite and showed them around the hut in front. The piles of rice and flour almost made their hearts stop.
How many straw huts are there? This was the first question Lieutenant General Daya asked. Unfortunately, these few people were so shocked that they used bayonets to poke the bags of the first few hay huts and saw that all the rice came out.
I ran out to report in despair. Do you remember how many straw huts there were?
The red troops were still extremely well-trained. Even though they knew there was no danger. Although there were many people in the ditch and they were armed, they mainly escorted supplies. They still quickly moved into company units and searched for terrain at the mouth of the ditch.
Construct a field position.
Observation posts have even begun to be set up on the top of the mountain and further afield, and they have not lost the necessary vigilance just because there is no enemy situation. This is naturally how they can break out of the siege from hundreds of thousands of enemy troops. Without this, they would have been able to break out of the siege long ago.
Just disappear!
"Let's go! There won't be so many people first. Section Chief Liu's logistics department will go in first to take stock." Liu Lang took the lead and strode into this valley, which was his first time here.
Zhaojiagou was the location where Liu Lang sent Sun Feng and several soldiers from the guard platoon to come to the Hadapu area a year ago to find a good location. This was the only place with no strategic value and good terrain conditions that could hide people's eyes.
Otherwise, it would not be so easy to hide the large amount of supplies shipped two months ago, as well as the people left behind and the mules and horses left behind for transportation.
Judging from the fact that he has been hidden here without being discovered, it is obvious that Sun Feng has done a good job.
A group of less than thirty people walked along the entrance of the ditch. Although the future Lieutenant General Daya was not a member of the logistics department, as the temporary person in charge of the military command, he had stepped in. Who could push him out?
The ravine is of course not a straight road. It winds back and forth. There is a small mountain stream less than half a meter wide close to the mountain on the side of the ravine. Although there is not much water, the scenery of the canyon is still good. In the future, it should be developed as a
It exists as a tourist attraction, so charging some admission fees shouldn’t be a problem.
The stone mountains on both sides are actually not very high, only about a hundred meters. When you look up, you can see the top of the mountain. However, there are mostly jagged rocks and steep cliffs. It is estimated that no one will have the time to climb to the top of the mountain.
Look, the soldiers of the Gansu warlords probably have no interest in admiring the scenery. Even if they are investigating the terrain, they can just take a look at the mouth of the ditch.
In fact, even the future Lieutenant General Daya, when he scouted this area yesterday, the soldiers did not penetrate fifty meters into the overgrown ditch. Anyone who hides his troops in this place is simply asking for death. Only four or five troops are needed.
If you fire a machine gun at the mouth of the ditch, no one can rush out. If you can't think of a way to waste it? Climb to the top of the mountain and throw grenades down. It will really be a turtle in the urn.
Here, the whole place is a place of death.
However, for hiding things, it is an extremely good place.
