The intelligence front has always been regarded as a battlefield without gunpowder. Compared with the vigorous frontal battlefield, the battles on the intelligence front often appear as if they were in a flash. Few people knew their true identities until they died.

Hu Biao, who has experienced military experience in his previous life, is very clear about the importance of intelligence to combat troops. Even in later generations, in peaceful environments, the secret intelligence war between countries has never stopped from beginning to end. This is enough to show how important intelligence work is!

It is clear that the Japanese army's raid on Guizhou Province this time was more to cut off the southwest international supply line. But in Hu Biao's view, even if the international supply line was cut off, he did not want to see the Japanese army stationed too many troops around the border.

If possible, Hu Biao hopes to compress the Japanese army in the coastal areas. In this way, the Japanese army will not easily threaten Hu Biao's foundation in Shillong. Correspondingly, Hu Biao can also continue to confront the Japanese army and train the troops to fight.

Without the cooperation of intelligence personnel, the Japanese infantry brigade, which had just occupied Zongzuo, did not dare to send troops easily after learning that the infantry brigade had been completely wiped out. If the reason for the entire infantry brigade was wiped out, how could the Japanese army dare to invade easily?

If the Japanese army did not come, Hu Biao would be happy to rest for two more days. The troops stationed in Longzhou also had more time to build fortifications to deal with subsequent Japanese invasions. Moreover, the longer it dragged, the more supplies Hu Biao would transfer.

First, all the vendors who cleared the goods were sent to the rear that had not been occupied by the Japanese. Then, the horse-drawn caravans specially hired by Hu Biao also entered Longzhou City one after another and began to transport the materials purchased by Liu Shixing at a low price out of Longzhou City one after another.

Considering that the Japanese army would send reconnaissance planes during the day, it might threaten the transport team. Hu Biao deliberately asked the horse gang to choose to enter the city and transport it at night. The longer the time is dragged, the more materials it will be transported away. At that time, leave an empty city for the Japanese.

When Hu Biao seized the time to build fortifications and transfer materials, the Japanese infantry brigade that had occupied Zongzuo City also took the opportunity to let the combat troops rest for two days. The Japanese were actually a little tired when attacking continuously along the way, and it was necessary to take a break.

Taking advantage of the rest of the troops, the commander of the infantry brigade drew elite scouts from the army and began to infiltrate into Longzhou, trying to let these scouts find out the situation in Longzhou City at this moment. However, the result shocked the commander of the infantry brigade.

"What about you? All the reconnaissance teams sent failed to return on time?"

"Yes, brigade commander! According to the time we agreed with the reconnaissance team, we waited outside Longzhou City for a long time, but we could not see the reconnaissance team return. I am afraid that a special situation that we don't know happened in Longzhou!"

"Baga! How is this possible? Could it be that the Chinese army gathered heavy troops in Longzhou?"

For the commander of the infantry brigade, he believed in the intelligence reconnaissance capabilities of his scouts. The multiple reconnaissance teams sent were extremely rich in reconnaissance experience. How could it be that they were all trapped in the hands of the troops in Longzhou City?

Even if you can't detect the information, you can escape back no matter what, right?

There is only one explanation for this kind of situation where there is no return, that is, a large number of troops have been assembled outside Longzhou City. Only in this way can the infiltration of the reconnaissance teams be wiped out. Is there any other explanation?

If the commander of the Infantry Brigade knew that Hu Biao had turned his task force into zero and scattered into the mountains and forests outside Longzhou City, he would understand why his reconnaissance team never returned. The reason was very simple, and they were all wiped out in the mountains and forests.

The task force that arrived in the southwest conducted a series of jungle special combat training and drills. In addition, they had mastered the situation of the mountains and forests near Longzhou and knew where to lurk the safest and most hidden.

Once an unknown armed person is found and trying to touch the city of Longzhou from the mountain forest, he will be surrounded and annihilated by the task force in the mountains. As long as he enters the mountain, it is impossible for these Japanese scouts to escape again!

If it were other defensive forces, to prevent these Japanese scouts with rich combat experience, it would really take a large number of police forces to be dispatched. If it were a task force, it would not require too many personnel at all.

Many times, the Japanese reconnaissance team that had just entered the mountain suddenly found that there was one missing person around. Just as they were trying to find the suddenly missing team member, the silent forest became terrifying in an instant.

When asked about the Japanese scouts who had experienced countless life and death tests, they also said in horror, "Baga! Will we encounter mountain ghosts? Damn, how could our people disappear for no reason? Squad leader, what should we do?"

In fact, these Japanese devils had no idea. When they were exploring and moving forward carefully, the scouts wandering on the edge of the mountains and forests were suddenly knocked down and wiped out by the people who rushed up. Then the bodies were directly covered up in disguise.

The jungle disguise is already a very familiar combat project for the officers and soldiers of the task force at this time. If Hu Biao had not given any explanation, he asked them to practice with the Japanese scouts and really use guns, the Japanese would not have lived for a few minutes.

Walking in the mountains and forests, I clearly saw a green grass or bushes beside me. But just as they turned their backs, a figure suddenly popped up under the green grass or bushes, dragging the lonely Japanese to wipe them away.

The other Japanese in progress turned around and could not find the corpse that had been covered up in disguise. As for the raiding task force, they had already changed their positions quietly and looked for opportunities to start the raid again.

If the Japanese reconnaissance team realized that they were ambushed and tried to leave the jungle, they would enjoy the entertainment of crossbow arrows. When they tried to resist or fight, after a burst of gunfire, the forest quickly calmed down.

In melee combat, there are crossbows and pistols or submachine guns, and in distance combat, there are snipers who control the entire scene. These Japanese devils who come disguised cannot last long in the hands of the task force. If you want to escape from the jungle, you are naturally a luxury.

The reconnaissance team that could not wait for the return, the commander of the infantry brigade finally gritted his teeth and said, "Order the Jiubao United to advance to Longzhou early tomorrow morning. Then send a report to HNA, requesting to send a squadron of fighter jets to cooperate in combat!"

"Hi!"

Knowing that the longer the delay is, the more unfavorable it will be for the infantry brigade that wants to capture Longzhou. In order to find out what is going on in Longzhou, the infantry brigade commander finally decided to send a corps to fight.

In his opinion, there should be no problem with a squadron of air forces in cooperation, plus an elite infantry corps, Longzhou, which has only one security regiment to defend. Even if the Longzhou defenders crossed a regiment, he didn't have to worry too much.

As long as he figures out how many troops are defending Longzhou, he will be able to arrange the subsequent arrangements, whether to ask for support from the division or continue to increase troops. If he continues to delay like this, I believe that the division will be extremely dissatisfied.

According to the experience of the infantry brigade commander, an infantry corps of the Japanese army can often defend a division. In order to increase the attack power of the infantry brigade, the infantry brigade commander also sent a mountain artillery squadron to the infantry brigade.

In addition, there is a squadron in the air to provide air cover and fire support. Even if there is a division defender in Longzhou City, the commander of the infantry brigade believes in the infantry corps and is confident that he will defeat it. If the defender has too many troops, then increase the air strike power.

At least one thing the commander of the infantry brigade knew very well, that is, the Navy Air Force, which cooperated with the offensive operations, and he hoped to have the opportunity to carry out large-scale bombing missions. There were many main forces gathered there, and the pilots liked to fly there to join in the fun.

When the Japanese Infantry Regiment set out from Zongzuo, Hu Biao, located in Longzhou, received a telegram. After receiving the telegram sent by the reconnaissance team, Hu Biao also said directly, "Send this information to Lao Xu immediately to prepare for the battle!"

"Yes, wolf head!"

The news of the attack of the Japanese infantry corps was immediately transmitted to Xu Sandao, who was stationed in Longzhou City. Hu Biao also began to analyze, "Before the situation in Longzhou is understood, the Japanese sent an infantry corps. This is somewhat wrong!"

"Wolf Head, with the combat capability of the Japanese, the combat power of an infantry corps should be comparable to that of one of our divisions, right? Besides, these Japanese even pulled a lot of mountain cannons over, and their attack strength is not simple!"

The subordinates who were by their side also gave their answers directly when they heard Hu Biao muttering. But Hu Biao still shook his head and said, "After that being said, the Japanese still have any tricks!"

"The devils like to send planes to bomb first. When these little devils come over, they should also call for air support, right?"

"That's right! If I expected it was good, the Japanese will definitely send planes to assist in the battle next time! Attack a small county town and send an infantry corps. Then, I think there will be not too many fighter planes sent by the Japanese, right?"

"Wolf Head, what do you mean?"

"The Eagle Strike Team has been training for so long. I think that maybe I can consider letting the Eagle Strike Team organize a practical battle. If you want to become an ace pilot, you can only endure more practical baptisms.

Send a report to the gray wolf, ordering all coastal intelligence stations to closely monitor the Japanese aircraft dynamics. Once an enemy plane is found to fly to Longzhou, immediately report the number of Japanese fighter jets. Telegram the Eagle Strike Team and make preparations for attack.

In order to avoid being discovered by the Japanese in advance, the Eagle Strike Brigade was asked to send a second squadron to attack. The second squadron was all Japanese fighter jets seized in the previous period. Even if they were discovered by the Japanese in the process, the Japanese should have mistakenly thought it was their own plane.

As long as the timing is right, I think we have the opportunity to severely damage or even wipe out the Japanese fighter jets flying over Longzhou. If we can shoot down a few more Japanese fighter jets, I believe the Japanese will feel pain and worry!"

With this idea, Hu Biao immediately sent a telegram to Lei Xiong, who was responsible for fighting behind enemy lines in the occupied areas, asking him to send an air defense observation post to closely monitor the situation of enemy planes that might fly from sea to Longzhou.

Secondly, let the Eagle Strike Squad expanded into a brigade be prepared for combat and actual combat. Once you have the chance, you may be able to shoot down the invading Japanese fighter jets while the Japanese are not paying attention. At that time, I believe the Japanese will be even more shocked!
