Chapter 167: Obscurity
Xing Jun led his troops to Longkou Town quickly and marched along the Dian Mountain Road ten miles outside Longkou Town. This mountain road is very steep and easy to hide. When approaching Longkou Town, Xing Jun sent people to investigate the situation in Longkou Town.
According to the scout's report, a large number of soldiers in military uniforms were stationed in Longkou Town. Cao Jiahua's troops seemed to appear overnight. However, according to the scout's description, they claimed that the soldiers stationed in Longkou Town looked very...
They were undisciplined, and presumably they were used to living a comfortable life under Qi Xieyuan, so marching and fighting became a difficult task for them, and they had completely forgotten their true identity.
For such soldiers, Xing Jun felt relieved. After conducting an overall survey of the terrain, Xing Jun arranged for the commander of the second division, Wang Xiao, to lead the second and third brigade to temporarily station in the mountains, and he personally led the first brigade to Longkou Town.
Longshan Pass to the north is surrounded by mountains and backed by water. It is still twenty miles away from Longkou Town. Even if a war suddenly breaks out, the enemy troops stationed in Longkou Town will not be able to rush to the battlefield quickly. It is a good place for an ambush.
.
Xing Jun and Wang Xiao formulated a careful battle deployment plan. Once Xing Jun's first brigade went into battle with the first regiment of Cao Jiahua's troops who came to escort the supplies, the enemy troops stationed in Longkou Town would inevitably send troops immediately, and Wang Xiao was arranged to
Before the war started, minefields were laid in the places where Longkou Town must pass on its way to Longkou Mountain, and the remaining troops attacked simultaneously from the east and south sides of Longkou Town. Attacked from three sides, Zhao Jinzhong's main force was bound to be defeated.
After deploying the battle plan, the scouts who went to investigate returned in time. At this time, a group of troops transported by Cao Jiahua's department had arrived not far from Longkou Mountain. Xing Jun immediately led his troops to Longkou Mountain to ambush and lay the mines.
Placed at the mountain pass. Quenching Blood Mountains and Rivers 167
As the sun sets, Cao Jiahua's team escorting supplies has slowly entered Xing Jun's sight. The leader is a Ford sedan. The figure behind the brown glass cannot be seen clearly, but it is definitely Cao Jiahua.
Yang Wei's reconnaissance troops once saw Cao Jiahua setting off with the troops escorting supplies in Nanjing.
In the mountain pass, the wind howled. Xing Jun, who was hiding on the top of the mountain, held a telescope and looked at the slowly advancing troops not far away who had entered the Longkou Mountain Pass. This long and narrow mountain pass was about to become the burial place of Cao Jiahua and his men.
However, in this tranquility, Xing Jun vaguely felt that the atmosphere was a little strange. The team seemed too quiet. The soldiers just lowered their heads and marched silently. There was no sound at all except the neat footsteps in the entire team. The entire team was filled with excitement.
In the lifeless atmosphere, if it weren't for the sound of footsteps, Xing Jun would have thought it was a group of walking dead that only knew how to move mechanically.
Everything went as planned by Xing Jun. The car headed by the leader was getting closer and closer to the minefield, fifty meters, ten meters, five meters...
Xing Jun held the telescope in his hand tightly and stared at Cao Jiahua's car. Just a few seconds later, a loud noise resounded through the sky mixed with air waves and earth and rocks rolling and roaring in the mountain pass. The entire mountain pass was no longer peaceful.
, several trucks behind stopped at the same time, Xing Jun stood up and shouted: "Attack!"
Cao Jiahua's troops were in chaos. The guns and bullets of Xing Jun's men rained down like raindrops. The sound of guns and cannons as compact as drum beats reverberated. Cao Jiahua's soldiers fell to the ground in response, their limbs broken and bloody.
Flying sideways, the battlefield was instantly brutal and terrifying.
But Xing Jun, who was conducting the command work, was stunned. He looked at the soldiers under Cao Jiahua. They retreated hastily in a tacit agreement as if they had discussed it. Even the transport troops abandoned their vehicles and fled, turning a blind eye to the wounded soldiers and supplies, as if
As if they had already received the order to retreat, they were very fast and orderly.
Xing Jun looked at this orderly retreat in surprise, and suddenly felt bad. While sending troops to pursue the remaining troops, he led his men to the foot of the mountain pass.
The two-and-a-half-ton red-headed Ford at the head had been blown to pieces and rolled over to the ground while smoking black smoke. Xing Jun kicked open the twisted door. There was only one driver lying inside, and the passenger seat was empty.
, Xing Jun suddenly shouted something bad, Cao Jiahua was not in the transport team at all!
Next came the call from Adjutant Xing Jun. He followed the call and rushed to the supply truck. He saw that the tarpaulin on the truck transporting the supplies had been torn off, and the soldiers effortlessly pulled off two
Xing Jun personally took the butt of the Mauser pistol and smashed the lid of the empty box. There was nothing in the box. More than a dozen boxes were thrown down in a row. They were all empty boxes. The bags used to hold grains were also filled with food.
Just weeds.
Xing Jun's veins were exposed, and he realized that he had been tricked. Besides being angry, Xing Jun felt nervous and panic. Cao Jiahua arranged such a show, even at the cost of several cars.
Trucks and a regiment of troops were used as cannon fodder, and there must have been other arrangements later.
The nervous Xing Jun immediately returned to his station ten miles away from Longkou Town. He ordered two of his soldiers to change their clothes and lurk in Longkou Town, where they secretly kidnapped two soldiers under Cao Jiahua and returned.
As the scouts said, Cao Jiahua's soldiers were indeed carefree and free-spirited, and they did not look like soldiers at all. These two soldiers were captured outside Longkou Town, and they were tied up by Xing Jun's men all the way here.
, kept complaining, and as soon as he saw Xing Jun, he knelt on the ground and kowtowed without saying a word: "Sir! We have not committed any crime, please let us go!"
Xing Jun frowned, raised the two men's chins with the Mauser pistol in his hand, and asked sternly: "Are you Cao Jiahua's men?"
The two soldiers looked at me and I looked at you. Neither of them understood what Xing Jun meant. They asked in confusion: "Who is Cao Jiahua? The security chief in our town is called Zhou Dafu."
Even Cao Jiahua didn’t know? Xing Jun was even more confused. One of them seemed to be more shrewd and seemed to understand what Xing Jun meant. He whispered solemnly: "Sir, we are either soldiers or farmers.
Peasant, you didn’t kill anyone or set fire to it, sir, did you arrest the wrong person?”
Looking at the honest and honest looks on the faces of these two people, Xing Jun asked with full of doubts: "Do you know what clothes you are wearing? Where did you get the military uniform if you are not a soldier?"
The man suddenly understood. He patted his head and couldn't help but laugh: "Sir, you see this is a misunderstanding. A group of people came to the town a few days ago. They said they wanted us to wear these military uniforms. If we wear them, we will be killed."
Give me a dime, because all the people in our town wear clothes like this."
The two of them giggled disapprovingly. As ordinary people, they had no idea what the military uniform meant. They only thought that it was a good thing to give them free clothes and return money, but they never thought that they might lose their lives because of it. Tempering Blood Mountains and Rivers

But Xing Jun was furious. If he hadn't been the one who came today, it would have been natural for other troops to open fire on the civilians based on their military uniforms. How many innocent civilians would have died by then? The cover-up trick set up by Cao Jiahua was basically impossible.
It's just making fun of people's lives. It's simply despicable!
On the other hand, if Cao Jiahua worked so hard and wasted money and money to arrange such a trap, there must be another purpose. Xing Jun secretly felt that Zhao Jinzhong was playing a big game of chess. It would be difficult to guess if he didn't get to the last step.
What he really thinks.
On the battlefield, time means everything. Sensing the danger, Xing Jun quickly ordered the liaison officer to contact the Hangzhou Security Command and report everything he encountered in Longkou Town to Yang Wei.
