The heavy rain gradually turned into moderate rain, and the Ninth Platoon and the Second Company arrived at the Mantou Hill in a panic.
Across a valley, there was a mountain. The mountain was not steep, but it was not flat either. The rain was not so heavy anymore, and the visibility was better, but the top of the mountain was still hazy. A dozen meters above the foot of the mountain, a huge cave entrance could be seen. It was pitch black, indicating that the cave was not shallow. Two figures were holding guns, hiding from the rain at the edge of the cave entrance, and occasionally looking out at the hazy rain curtain outside.
The straight-line distance from the top of Mantou Hill to the cave entrance is about 100 meters. Hu Yi and Gao Yidao carefully observed the opposite side for a while. The team behind the slope had almost finished resting in the rain, so the two of them retreated and began to arrange the next step.
This cave is not small. Even a livestock cart can be pulled in without being seen. How can it be small? There are dozens of people escorting goods back from Sanjiaji. There must be some left in the cave. It is estimated that there are about a hundred enemies, and the firepower situation is unknown.
This battle is not difficult to fight, I say it is not difficult because the situation is very simple, the battlefield environment limits the offensive tactics that can be chosen, just follow the cave entrance and fight slowly in. This battle is also not easy to fight, attacking the cave is actually equivalent to attacking a stronghold, if you are not careful you will have to gnaw at it one foot at a time.
At this time, Hu Yi and Gao Yidao looked up at the same time, helplessly looking at the rainy sky. If it hadn't been raining, it would have been so easy to turn the cave into a brick kiln with a big fire. Fire attack, a tactic that has been used for thousands of years, would still be effective for thousands more years.
"Do you still want to fight?" Hu Yi asked calmly.
Gao Yidao heard that Hu Yi meant to wait until the weather cleared up before coming back, but Jinba La's treasure bowl was right in front of him, and he couldn't tell when the rain would stop. Gao Yidao's mind was already filled with money, food, and bullets, and how could he not eat the fat meat that was right in front of him? So he pretended to be calm and said, "The night is long and dreams are many. It seems that this rain will not stop. What if something unexpected happens and they move away?"
Hu Yi smiled at Heitaita's serious face. It was unrealistic to expect this guy who dared to turn against him for the telescope to give up. Aiqu lowered his head and scraped the mud on his shoes on the rocks while saying, "Don't expect my ninth platoon to be your commando."
"Then what else can you do?"
"Don't forget, I've provided all the intelligence so far. Can you find this place? The ninth platoon can... block the entrance to the cave so that you, the invincible Captain Gao, can fight with confidence."
Gao Yidao, with a frown on his face, looked at the curly hat brim dripping with rainwater and remained silent for a while. There was no other way to attack the cave. The team could not deploy because there was only a small space. His second company had more than 150 soldiers, and his ninth platoon had less than 30 soldiers. He was short of people. It was a dream to expect Hu Yi to take the initiative.
"But I got to pick the spoils first!"
"Okay." Hu Yiben didn't come here for this purpose. He just hoped that there would be some things in it that were in short supply in the group.
Then the two of them walked to their respective teams. Hu Yi ordered the 9th Platoon to set up a firing position on the Mantou Hill and block the cave exit on the opposite side. Gao Yidao ordered the 2nd Company to go back to the opposite mountain and first comb the mountain carefully to search it in case there were other exits in the cave.
The second company of more than 150 people evenly spread out to form a long line and began to search the mountain in the rain. The slippery, muddy, and occasional sound of falling gravel finally alarmed the sentry at the cave entrance. The two of them ran out of the cave for a distance, stood in the valley and looked at the rainy mountain.
Snap—
A crisp gunshot was heard from the high ground a hundred meters away opposite the cave entrance. A bullet pierced through the rain, announcing the start of the battle.
The little girl, who was soaked like a mud monkey, twisted and retreated back into the mud pit in a panic, holding her rifle. Her little face under the helmet was as dirty as a map with mud and water. She smiled at Wu Shitou, who was half sitting in the mud, and said, "Hey, one!" Then she leaned on the mud behind her and began to pull the bolt of her rifle with great effort.
A figure fell and rolled into the mud and water flowing in the valley. The blood on his body had no time to appear before it was submerged in the mud.
The other guy's legs went limp, and he began to run towards the cave entrance in a panic, shouting heartbreakingly, "Something's happening!"
Bang, bang, bang... Then seven or eight shots rang out from the high ground, followed by a series of gun bolt sounds, and Shi Cheng's squad opened fire. Two of the shots hit the guy who tried to run back to the cave entrance, turning him into a still object in the mud.
Hu Yi was lying on the side of the first squad with a telescope, staring at the dark cave entrance. Luo Fugui was lying not far from Hu Yi with a machine gun, quietly aiming at the cave entrance and waiting for follow-up reactions. The second and third squads were resting in the mud behind the high ground. When they heard the gunshots from above, Ma Liang and Liu Jianqiang, who were not far away, looked at each other, then continued to frown in dissatisfaction and sit in the rain to enjoy the rainy scenery.
Suddenly, there were crackling sounds of gunfire from the dark cave entrance. More than a dozen bullets flew randomly to the high ground and were immediately counterattacked by the machine guns on the high ground. Luo Fugui sent a magazine into the cave entrance. Then the scene suddenly became quiet. There was no counterattack from the cave. They realized that the entrance was blocked; there was no more shooting from the high ground, because nothing could be seen in the dark cave entrance, only the sound of rain falling around them became clearer and clearer.
The telescope was then put down, and he subconsciously wiped his face which was dripping with rain: "Okay, our work is done."
Luo Fugui couldn't help but stretch his neck: "Is this the end?"
"Do you want me to stay inside and come out?"
"Hehe, this battle is fun. All we have to do is wait and follow the second company in to get the things." Luo Fugui smiled.
The entire mountain was searched, but no suspected entrance or exit was found. Even so, Gao Yidao was still worried, so he sent a squad to climb to the top of the mountain to monitor the slopes to prevent the bottom of this treasure pot from leaking out. Gao Yidao naturally heard the gunshots near the cave entrance clearly. There was nothing to worry about, as the firepower of the ninth platoon was enough to block it.
"Go to the cave entrance now, and your team will go around from that side. Then we can search both sides." Gao Yidao, who was covered in mud, was in a good mood.
The main force of more than 100 people approached the cave entrance from the left side along the mountain, and a platoon approached from the other side. The ninth platoon on the opposite hill watched all this leisurely. They carefully approached the edge of the cave entrance, which was more than ten meters wide. The soldiers on both sides stopped and waited for the company commander's order to attack.
At this time, Kuaitui suddenly said, "Captain, what's that sound you hear?"
"What's that sound?" Gao Yidao pricked up his ears. Amid the clattering rain, he finally distinguished a faint roar, which became louder and clearer, and the soldiers could hear it. The ground even began to tremble slightly, and small pieces of fallen rocks began to bounce and roll down the hillside. The roar gradually escalated into a majestic shock.
Rumble—a turbid torrent suddenly appeared at one end of the trough, sweeping over ferociously, roaring, and madly.
"Flash flood!" a soldier shouted in panic.
Gao Yidao turned around suddenly and shouted to the soldiers in the back who were in a low position: "Run! Run!"
The team behind stopped at the bottom of the valley unconsciously because they were far away from the cave entrance. The sudden appearance of the beast stunned them. Finally, some people began to rush to the foot of the mountain desperately, some fell on the spot, and some stood there in shock without blinking.
Boom—whoosh—a mud wall roared past, followed by an endless surge. The valley between the small hill and the cave entrance suddenly turned into a surging river of death.
The roar drowned out all the desperate cries. The turbid wall of water covered all the figures that had no time to struggle, proudly showing off to these tiny humans the consequences of ignoring it.
…
A team was advancing in the rain, wearing all kinds of clothes and carrying all kinds of guns, panting and crawling in the mud. The team was winding and continuous, and the front and back ends could not be seen, and both ends were covered in white.
A scarred man, his silk clothes covered in mud, looked anxiously into the distance and asked the people around him, "You said they are the Eighth Route Army?"
"At first I was just suspicious, but later they reunited with some of them. They were all wearing military uniforms, real Eighth Route Army soldiers."
The person who replied was the one who fell behind in the second company. After hearing that the Black Tiger Army was famous, Jinba La sent this person to join them and lay a chess piece to make it easier to deal with this opponent in the future. What he didn't expect was that this so-called Black Tiger Army actually had the courage to attack him first and attack Sanjiaji. Now that he knew they were the Eighth Route Army, it was no wonder that they were so bold.
Originally, I wanted to expand my business, but the warehouse in Sanjiaji is everything to Jinbala, so let’s break up with him in advance. Don’t say you are from the Eighth Route Army, I will beat you even if you are from the 88th Route Army!
For this purpose, Jinba La gathered all the forces he could mobilize, including the bandits from various places and his own direct subordinates, totaling nearly 600 people, and set out in a mighty manner towards Sanjiaji. There were also a hundred people in the cave warehouse, how could they hold out until the reinforcements arrived.
"Hurry up, everyone! If we lose the warehouse, you will all starve to death! The Eighth Route Army is trying to cut off our survival, what can we do?" Jin Bala stood in the rain and shouted loudly to the team.
"Kill!" The marching troops answered without hesitation.
As a result, the team moved faster in the rain.
…
More than 30 soldiers from the second company disappeared in an instant. The valley became a natural moat. This was the power of nature. Lying on the small hill, looking at the turbid water rushing down, Hu Yi asked himself: Is this fate? Should I have expected this? Could this have been avoided? Perhaps Gao Yidao also blamed himself in this way!
The second and third squads behind the plateau had all climbed up, and the entire ninth row was stunned. Luo Fugui couldn't help but mutter, "Damn it, we can't get through. This time we're done for! How about... let's go home."
The rain was still falling, dripping onto that dark face like sweat. Gao Yidao's expressionless eyes left the raging river, looked at the high ground opposite, and then at the edge of the cave not far away. His thick and sharp eyebrows finally slowly raised, and he issued an order word by word: "Prepare for battle!"
The dazed soldiers finally woke up and tightened their guns again... Mobile users please browse and read for a better reading experience.
