Nine Hundred and Thirty-Five, the War Begins
In Zuoyun Mountain, Ren Xiaosu was walking with Ji Ziang in the mountains, there were only the two of them.
"Bury a group of TNT in this place," Ren Xiaosu said while looking at the map, pointing to his feet, "P5092 said that the barbarians will have elite troops passing by here to cover the flanks of the expeditionary army."
After speaking, Ji Ziang followed what Ren Xiaosu said, directly put the TNT on the ground, and then manipulated the soil on the ground to "swallow" the TNT.
Nowadays, burying explosives has become a technical job. Manzi has been bombed several times. If the burial is too obvious, he will definitely be discovered by the other party.
There are many excellent hunters in the expeditionary army, and it is extremely simple for the other party to identify whether the soil on the surface has been touched.
So Ren Xiaosu thought about it and asked Ji Ziang if it could be buried as if it hadn't been touched, but Ji Ziang said yes.
This answer made Ren Xiaosu overjoyed, as if he had found a new partner on the path of the barbarian.
At this time Ji Ziang suddenly asked: "Young commander, do you think we can win?"
"Sure," Ren Xiaosu said firmly, "It's just a bunch of savages, how can they be so rampant in the Central Plains?"
"Then what if we are really trapped here?" Ji Ziang asked puzzled, "You must know that Wang Run said that there are still about 140,000 expeditionary corps on the entire battlefield, which is much higher than what P5092 originally estimated. many."
According to the plan of P5092, they intend to exchange one for ten to win this defensive battle. This is still a very ideal state, that is, the Sixth Combat Brigade can fight off a maximum of 60,000 expeditionary troops.
However, Tinder's early defeat caused Zuo Yunshan and Daniushan to bear all the pressure. Zuo Yunshan alone may have to face 70,000 barbarians. The Sixth Combat Brigade must have been wiped out.
Ren Xiaosu thought for a while and comforted him: "Actually, if we are really besieged here for more than ten days, then the Sixth Combat Brigade will never fight alone."
"What do you mean?" Ji Ziang was puzzled.
"The troops in Fort 178 will not sit idly by, they have no habit of leaving their own people behind," Ren Xiaosu said.
"But P5092 said in the previous meeting that for Fort 178, the best strategy is to stick to the northwest instead of sending troops to the Central Plains," Ji Ziang said.
"The best strategy is of course this,
"Ren Xiaosu smiled: "But when did the Northwest care about these rules and regulations? There are more than 6,000 Northwest brothers in Zuoyun Mountain. Mr. Zhang will not see us all die in battle. The current military strength of the Northwest is much stronger than before. "
In the early morning of the fifth day, the horn of emergency assembly was suddenly sounded on the defensive position.
Ren Xiaosu put on his clothes and got out of his tent. He rushed to the command camp and asked, "What's wrong?"
P5092 was fully dressed and standing in front of the sand table at this time: "The scouts under Wang Yun have discovered the enemy's situation, and the expeditionary force drove more than 3,000 refugees to a place 40 kilometers away, and it is expected to arrive at Zuoyun Mountain at dawn. I just don’t know if they will stop to rest. Judging from their marching progress, the main force of the expeditionary legion should maintain good physical strength and can go into battle at any time. Moreover, the expeditionary legion trapped here outside Zuoyun Mountain has already rested. After so many days, if they don't fight, their morale will start to drop."
"Do you think they might attack directly after arriving at Zuoyun Mountain?" Ren Xiaosu asked.
"Yes," P5092 said, "I estimate that there will be a fierce battle at dawn. This battle is likely to last for a day. The main forces of the expeditionary legion are already ready to go, and they will come up in turn like wheels. We must be prepared to consume the strength of the Sixth Combat Brigade."
"Then fight them," Ren Xiaosu said.
"Tomorrow, there will definitely be an expeditionary army trying to break through the blockade of the defensive position," P5092 said, "You also know that there are still masters hidden in the expeditionary army, and they are too destructive to the defensive position. It will appear suddenly. So, Young Commander, don't take it lightly, you must wait for these masters to appear."
"Understood," Ren Xiaosu nodded.
"Also," P5092 said suddenly, "If the expeditionary army drives the refugees over to fight, the young commander must not be merciless..."
What P5092 was most worried about was that Ren Xiaosu, seeing the plight of those refugees, would not have the heart to act and seek other perfect measures to save those refugees, which would definitely delay the timing of the detonation.
In war, how can there be so many things that have the best of both worlds?
Ren Xiaosu agreed.
But at dawn, when those refugees were driven into the mountain by the expeditionary army, Ren Xiaosu was still a little shocked.
I saw those refugees coming from a distance, stepping on the mountain road one by one, and bleeding. In order to make these refugees look pitiful enough, the expeditionary army actually ordered these refugees to throw away all their shoes and walk barefoot.
The expressions of the refugees were numb, but when they saw the human positions in the Central Plains in front of them, they cheered and ran wildly, as if they had seen a savior.
The Expeditionary Corps is closely behind, ready to wait for the opportunity to move.
Everyone in the defensive position was silent. These days, the officers have told the soldiers more than once what they are going to face, and the young commander has already taken over the most difficult thing to do. They just need to wait quietly, and then prepare for These Central Plains people took revenge.
It wasn't the young marshal who killed these people, the expeditionary army was the culprit.
Ren Xiaosu could see the sudden radiance in the eyes of those refugees from a distance, because these people finally saw hope, as if they were going to come to the end of suffering and see the light again.
It's just that these refugees don't know what awaits them.
Ren Xiaosu suddenly realized why P5092 had to tell him again, don't be soft-hearted, because the other party must have thought of this scene.
Those 3,000 people clearly looked at you with anticipation and excitement, but you want to kill these people who have high hopes for you with your own hands. This is a very cruel thing.
It was so cruel that even Ren Xiaosu's breathing became heavy. For the first time, he felt how heavy it was to live up to the expectations and trust of more than 3,000 people.
He asked Wang Run next to him: "Has your spy left?"
"No," Wang Run shook his head: "He is among these crowds, and he has no chance to escape."
P5092 looked at Ren Xiaosu, he was very worried that Ren Xiaosu would be hesitant, but before he could speak, Ren Xiaosu pressed the switch of the detonator when the refugees rushed past the detonation site.
There was a roar of explosion in Zuoyun Mountain, and a series of buried explosives raised huge smoke. Ren Xiaosu watched this scene silently with a livid face, as if he wanted to remember all this in his mind.
The real war in Zuoyun Mountain has begun.
