There are several mountains between Shanhaiguan and Jiumenmen. The original trees in the mountains are lush and green, and the terrain is dangerous. Few travelers pass through. The mountains are full of birdsong, the sound of water is clear, and the cold air is overwhelming. It is like a fairyland on earth. But Han Baihang and his party
Meiyu had no time to appreciate this masterpiece of nature. They could only move forward non-stop, and the deep mountains and old forests were gradually left behind.
With a few people in the hundred-man team leading the way, the team's march was much easier. They were all specially trained by Han Baihang. It is not an exaggeration to say that they are special forces. They usually hide in the team and remain inconspicuous, but once they arrived,
At this critical moment, their importance is revealed.
The three of them formed a team and moved forward in a formation. The one in front was responsible for exploring the road and determining the terrain. The two behind were responsible for opening a path that could allow people to pass. They were divided into several teams and took turns to go into battle. In this way, Han Baihang's
The team moved forward at a steady pace.
Although the new recruits in the team have experienced several fierce battles, they have never been to such a difficult mountain forest. From time to time in the mountains, they recall the roars of tigers and black bears. Some soldiers have become frightened and hold their guns in their hands.
They are ready to shoot at any time. Han Baihang did not care about them. They will have to experience these sooner or later, so let them become more mature here, because the next battle with Zhang Xueliang will definitely be more severe than the current situation.
The journey has reached the most dangerous part. Here is a cliff, with a high mountain behind and an abyss in front. At the foot is a narrow path that can only be passed by one person. For team member Han Baihang and the team of 100 people, passing here is a piece of cake, but for ordinary soldiers
It is really a real challenge and requires soldiers to have excellent mental quality.
Gao Hongyi organized several soldiers of a hundred-man squad to demonstrate in front, and then ordered the soldiers behind to put all their firearms and dry food bags behind them, tighten their shoelaces, and then face the cliff with their backs to the cliff.
Pass slowly. The purpose of this is to prevent the soldiers from opening their eyes to see the scene below the cliff, in case the soldiers are afraid of heights.
Sure enough, this method worked very well, and soon all the soldiers passed the cliff. However, there were still a few timid soldiers who did not dare to come over. Han Baihang had no choice but to do so. The military situation was urgent, and he did not dare to pass no matter how hard he tried to persuade these few.
For the soldiers on the cliff, Han Baihang had no choice but to leave two special forces members to help them. The rest moved forward at full speed and immediately rushed to the nine gates.
Han Baihang seemed to have heard the gunfire at the Nine Gates, and seemed to have seen the fierce battle at the Nine Gates. He heard it more and more clearly, and he even began to not believe his ears. He called Gao Hongyi to his side and asked: "
You should also listen, is there any special sound?"
Gao Hongyi stretched out his ears and listened for a long time, then lay on the ground and listened for a while, then stood up and said: "Commander, I also heard the sound, it seemed like the sound of marching, the neighing of war horses, and, by the way, the sound of cars.
.”
Han Baihang was sure that he was not thinking about the battle ahead and hearing hallucinations. There were really voices in the front. So which team did these voices belong to? Han Baihang knew very well that Wu Peifu, Marshal Wu, no longer had any troops that could be mobilized, so there was only one
Perhaps, such a team must be the team of Fengjun! As for Fengjun, the only one left outside the battlefield is Zhang Xueliang's Third Corps.
Coming to this conclusion, Han Baihang himself was shocked. Could it be that he was about to encounter Zhang Xueliang here?
He quickly sent out several hundred-man scouts to investigate the direction from which the sound came, and then ordered the team to refrain from making any noise and move forward in silence.
After about ten minutes, the scouts in front finally brought back the news that the team in front was really Zhang Xueliang's third corps, and the opponent's military flag could even be seen in the distance.
Han Baihang finally felt relieved. As long as he made sure that the other party had not arrived at the ninth gate, everything would be easy to handle.
Han Baihang looked at his team and sighed softly. It would be great if his cavalry regiment was still there. Last time, in order to save the entire division from crisis, the cavalry regiment rushed towards the enemy risklessly, resulting in the annihilation of the entire army. He
There has been no way to organize the cavalry regiment again, and now I am missing an arm.
However, the terrain here is not very open, and it is mountainous and hilly. Even if his own cavalry regiment is present, its advantage is not very great. Fortunately, in such terrain, it is difficult for Zhang Xueliang's artillery positions to be constructed, and the opponent's
The superiority of artillery fire will put much less pressure on itself, and both sides can only rely on infantry to carry out a bloody battle.
Although he does not have an advantage in numbers, after the last battle with Zhang Xueliang in Lingyuan, he already almost knows the combat effectiveness of Zhang Xueliang's men. Even if he cannot defeat the opponent, he can at least hold it back. As long as Zhang Xueliang's third
As long as the Legion holds him back alive, his mission will be considered completed.
Han Baihang gathered the entire group of 100 people together and ordered: "Listen, once the war breaks out, you will use the nearby mountains, forests and ravines to hide. Your task is to target the military commanders of the other side and shoot one for another.
In this place, you must not expose yourself. You don’t need to kill many enemies. As long as you make them dare not act rashly, you will have achieved great success. Do you understand?"
Everyone stood at attention and replied in unison: "I understand!"
Han Baihang suddenly thought of something and asked Gao Hongyi: "Last time we bought arms in Shanghai, I remember there was a sniper rifle?"
Gao Hongyi also remembered this incident and replied: "Yes, Commander, that rifle is now in Shitou's hands."
Han Baihang called Shitou and ordered: "Stone, this sniper rifle has a very long range. If you want to make good use of it, put your shooting position on the top of the mountain. Remember, only shoot the opponent's senior officers, go ahead!"
Shitou also accepted the order.
The rest of the troops, Han Baihang, also arranged according to the favorable terrain, and then ordered Gao Hongyi, "Take out our mortars, send a signal to Zhang Xueliang, and tell them that I am here!"
Gao Hongyi took the order, commanded the soldiers to find several flat terrains to install mortars, fired six or seven shells in the direction of Zhang Xueliang's Third Corps, and then quietly waited for the enemy's arrival.
Zhang Xueliang was on his way to Jiumen, and he didn't know that Han Baihang was already waiting for his arrival behind him, until several artillery shells suddenly fell among his ranks.
