Chapter 664 The plan!

"Damn it!"

"It really hurts!"

Behind a mountain valley several miles away from the Japanese army, Wang Zhong endured the severe pain in his back and walked around in the direction of Nantianmen, while urging the internal energy in his body to circulate rapidly, driving the circulation of qi and blood, and slowly dissolving the blood stasis caused by the bullet in his back.

Although he was heading towards Nantianmen, Wang Zhong was not heading towards the position on the top of the mountain where Long Wenjian and others were, but towards the direction of the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain.

After walking only a few hundred meters, Wang Zhong heard a noise by his ears.

He immediately hid behind a tree, took out a telescope from the space, and looked in the direction where the sound came from.

I saw several Japanese soldiers searching the woods in an outdated triangle formation.

Wang Zhong laughed immediately. It seemed that he had hit the heart and lungs of the Japanese commander. Otherwise, why would he send people to chase him so far?

I secretly resented the Japanese commander, but at the same time I was somewhat relieved. If this commander was absolutely rational, it would be difficult to deal with.

Thoughts were flying in his mind, but he took another step and strode towards the Japanese soldiers.

This kind of jungle warfare is absolutely perfect for a martial arts master like Wang Zhong. It is like a fish in water or a dragon returning to the sky.

It seemed that the Japanese army had not learned enough of the lesson they suffered near the airport a few days ago. However, this was exactly what Wang Zhong wanted. The reason why he went to so much trouble to launch a sneak attack on the Japanese grenade launcher position was to ease the pressure faced by the defeated soldiers on the front battlefield.

Now that he had seized all the Japanese army's grenade launchers, the Japanese soldiers became furious and sent some of their men to look for him in the woods.

As one side gained strength while the other lost strength, the Japanese naturally had fewer troops deployed on the front battlefield.

With a thought, the gun in his hand disappeared, and two daggers appeared in his palms.

The knife is two feet and four inches long, similar to a butcher knife, but the blade is slightly curved and the shape is different.

These two knives were alloy knives that Wang Zhong had specially customized online. They were sharper and tougher than ordinary swords.

Silently, Wang Zhong had come behind a tree less than seven meters to the side of the three Japanese soldiers. He chose a good angle and seized the opportunity. While the three Japanese soldiers were not facing him, Wang Zhong bent over and leaped up like an arrow. With amazing explosive power, he instantly crossed a distance of seven meters. When the three Japanese soldiers turned their guns, he was already in front of them.

The swift knife flashed past like lightning. Wang Zhong, who was half squatting on the ground, turned around and quickly searched the devil's body, collected the bullets on his body into the space, and then evacuated immediately.

Twenty minutes later, Wang Zhong did not act rashly as he watched the Japanese soldiers riding bicycles and driving motorcycles rapidly approaching Nantianmen on the avenue in the distance.

The equipment of this batch of Japanese troops is better than all the Japanese troops they have encountered in these few days, and they are definitely the main force of the Japanese army.

After confirming the number of Japanese troops, which was less than a squadron, Wang Zhong breathed a sigh of relief, but did not stay for long. He retreated back into the jungle and groped his way towards Nantianmen.

An hour later, after killing more than twenty Japanese soldiers who were searching for him in the woods, Wang Zhong returned to Nantianmen and found Long Wenjian, who was arranging the defeated soldiers to deepen the trenches during the Japanese attack.

“Were you the one who caused the noise over there among the Japanese just now?” Long Wenjian couldn't help but smile when he saw Wang Zhong. Liu Bei had powerful generals like Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhao Yun, Cao Cao had the Xiahou brothers, Zhang Liao, Dian Wei and Xu Chu, and Sun Ce had Zhou Yu and Taishi Ci.

And he has Long Wenjian and Wang Zhong.

Wang nodded and said, "An hour ago, a group of well-equipped Japanese soldiers came down the mountain, driving cars and motorcycles. It looked like a squadron, and they were most likely the main force of the Japanese army."

"The main force of the Japanese army? They arrived so soon?" Long Wenjian was stunned at first, then his brows furrowed tightly.

Wang Zhong said: "The infantrymen are all riding bicycles to travel. Do you think it's fast?"

The reason why they were able to reach Nantianmen ahead of the Japanese army in such a short time was mainly because they took a shortcut, climbed over mountains and crossed rivers, walking in a straight line.

The Japanese army had a large amount of baggage, and if they relied solely on manpower, it would take much longer than Wang Zhong and his men to deliver it to Nantianmen, so they could only take the main road.

Wang Zhong reminded again, "It is estimated that the Japanese artillery will arrive soon."

Long Wenjian said in a serious tone: "We don't have much ammunition reserves. If the main force of the Japanese army really arrives, we won't be able to hold out for long."

"So we have to find a solution quickly." Wang Zhong said.

Even Long Wenjian felt helpless: "The bridge has been blown up, and the only way to cross the river is by the few rope ferries at the ferry. A raft can only hold more than 20 people at a time. There are more than 1,000 of us brothers, and the Japanese will never watch us cross the river."

"Actually, there is another way!" Wang Zhong looked at Long Wenjian and said in a rather low voice.

"any solution?"

"Let's split up into small groups and go into the jungle."

"What kind of solution is this!" Long Wenjian immediately shook his head and said, "Not everyone has your ability. Among our more than a thousand people, most of them are new recruits."

"If we really break up into small groups and go deep into the jungle, we will either become targets for the Japanese army or food for wild beasts."

Wang Zhong said: "Are we really going to fight the Japanese army to the death at this Nantianmen?"

"With our limited numbers and our stock of weapons and ammunition, let alone a fight to the death, the Japanese army can easily kill us with just a main force."

More than a thousand people may sound like a lot, but most of them are new recruits, and they have very limited ammunition and food, no logistical supplies, and no reinforcements.

They also had to face wave after wave of attacks from the Japanese army.

Long Wenjian was also certain that he and his more than a thousand defeated soldiers could hold out for a few days.

Wang Zhong said: "It is definitely not feasible to take all of these more than a thousand people away."

"What do you mean?" Long Wenjian frowned again, with some vague guesses in his mind.

Wang Zhong said: "Divide the troops into two groups. One group will stay behind to snipe the Japanese army, and the other group will cross the river quickly under the cover of night."

"When the fighting reaches a certain point, the brothers who remain to sniper will abandon their positions and retreat into the woods, abandoning all their baggage and trying their best to escape."

Long Wenjian shook his head and said, "You are taking it for granted. The Japanese will not give us a chance to split our forces. As long as we make the slightest move, they will definitely rush over without regard for the consequences."

At the moment, their military strength is no longer advantageous, and the Japanese army does not even need to attack the mountain. They only need to surround Nantianmen tightly, and then wait for them to tire themselves out at the foot of the mountain and wait until they run out of ammunition and food.

"So we can't wait!" Wang Zhong looked at Long Wenjian and said, "The main force of the Japanese army is still rushing towards this side. The longer we stay on Nantianmen, the smaller the chance of everyone returning home alive."

"If the Japanese army really surrounds Nantianmen, I'm afraid we will have no other choice but to jump into the river."

"Hiss..." Long Wenjian took a deep breath and raised his hand to scratch his scalp. His brain was working fast, but no matter how hard he tried, he could not think of a way to survive.

If the brothers were to evacuate across the river little by little, it would be a problem. Who should go first and who should go later? No matter what decision Long Wenjian made, he would not be supported by all the defeated soldiers like he is now. Those who left first must be grateful to Long Wenjian.

But what about those who left later?
Who will be left behind to cover the rest?

What were they thinking? Why were those people able to cross the river first, while they had to stay in the mountains and fight the Japanese?
I’m afraid that before the Japanese attack, our side will already be in internal strife.

Long Wenjian didn't dare to gamble. In the current situation, if he took a wrong step, the good situation he had worked so hard to build would be ruined.

If they really start fighting among themselves before the Japanese army arrives, it will not bring them any benefit except giving the Japanese an advantage.

"Don't forget, there's Yu Xiaoqing on the other side of the river!" Long Wenjian said, "Didn't Yu Xiaoqing kill the commander of the special forces battalion who was in charge of the river defense before?"

The original unit responsible for river defense was the National Army's Special Service Battalion, which was affiliated with the Central Army. They deployed troops on the Nujiang River not only to consolidate the river defense but also to supervise the battle.

The Special Forces Battalion was an elite unit of the Central Army and was Chiang Ching-kuo's confidant. But even so, their battalion commander was killed at the behest of Yu Xiaoqing.

Although this was definitely the intention of the superiors, and the unlucky battalion commander was just an unlucky guy who was pushed out to take the blame, it also showed Yu Xiaoqing's determination.

In particular, Wang Zhong personally crossed the river to meet with Yu Xiaoqing, and personally heard from Yu Xiaoqing's words that Yu Xiaoqing asked them to fight a decisive battle with the Japanese army at Nantianmen.

"I will be outside, and I will not accept your order!"

"Besides, Yu Xiaoqing is not the commander of the Sichuan Army now!" Wang Zhong suddenly changed the subject.

Long Wenjian was stunned: "What does it mean?"

"Yu Xiaoqing has already taken office as the commander of the Yu Division. As for the Sichuan Army Corps, you are now the acting commander jointly elected by Captain Lin, me, and all the brothers."

"When will it be the turn of outsiders to comment on the affairs of our Sichuan Army?"

"We'll talk about these things later. What we should consider now is how to get our brothers across the river safely." Long Wenjian was a smart man. He naturally knew that Wang Zhong said this to reassure him. After all, he was a quartermaster lieutenant who mended socks. He relied on a colonel's clothes he got from somewhere and relied on cheating and deceiving to gather nearly a regiment of troops and fought all the way from Burma to Nujiang.

If the superiors were all smart and capable people who were dedicated to the country, they would not care about Long Wenjian's inappropriate behavior. Instead, they would promote him to a higher position and directly promote him to the head of the regiment.

Unfortunately, the top echelons of the national army have long been corrupt. Some are only interested in making money, while others are fighting for power. Almost everyone only sees profit.

"Actually, there is another way!" Wang Zhong pondered for a moment before slowly speaking.

"What method?" Long Wenjian immediately grabbed Wang Zhong excitedly and asked impatiently.

"There is no other way except to defend blindly and fight to the death with the Japanese army. If you want to survive, you must take the initiative."

"Take the initiative? Take the initiative?" Long Wenjian was surprised by Wang Zhong's idea.

"We only have more than a thousand people, and most of them are new recruits who have not fought much." As if worried that Wang Zhong could not understand the current situation, Long Wenjian hurriedly said: "You also said that the main force of the Japanese army is rushing towards us. If we take the initiative to attack now, what is the difference between that and seeking death?"

Wang Zhong said: "Just defending blindly isn't that courting death?"

"We have limited weapons and ammunition. Even if we have the advantage of terrain, how many times do you think we can withstand the Japanese attack?"

"We only have a limited amount of food. How many days do you think we can last at Nantianmen?"

"Do you still expect Yu Xiaoqing on the other side to send people to deliver ammunition and food across the river?"

Long Wenjian was silent. He didn't know how to answer Wang Zhong's question. In the eyes of Yu Xiaoqing and the defenders on the other side of the river, they were probably already labeled as dead.

"You are also a veteran. Have you heard of the Red Army's Fourth Crossing of the Chishui River Campaign?"

"Of course I've heard of it!" Long Wenjian looked around nervously at first, then said in a low voice.

Wang Zhong said: "How does the crisis we are facing now compare to the Red Army trapped in Zunyi back then?"

"Of course not!" Long Wenjian said, "At that time, the Nationalist army had a total of 400,000 troops, surrounding the Red Army of tens of thousands of troops. Now our army has more than 1,000 people, and the Japanese army at the foot of the mountain has at most two squadrons."

Wang Zhong added: "Although our army's weapons and equipment are different from those of the Japanese army, how do the Red Army compare to the Nationalist army that besieged them in the past?"

"I know what you mean." Long Wenjian said, "But we are not the Red Army. I have seen those Red Army soldiers you mentioned. They all have firm beliefs and are fearless of death."

"But we..."

Wang Zhong patted Long Wenjian on the shoulder and said, "The wolves may be ferocious, but if their leader is a docile sheep, the ferocious wolves will become docile."

"On the contrary, if the sheep are led by a vicious hungry wolf, the sheep will also become vicious."

"We are now in a desperate situation. In order to survive, people in desperate situations will often burst out with unimaginable strength under normal circumstances."

"Instead of waiting to die at Nantianmen, it is better to fight to break through and find a glimmer of hope for survival."

Long Wenjian was stunned for a long time before he asked in confusion: "Why did you say that just now?"

Wang Zhong smiled lightly and did not answer Long Wenjian's words. Instead, he asked, "If there were no previous methods for comparison, how could the commander make a decision in such a short time!"

Long Wenjian stared at Wang Zhong for a long while before saying, "You are such a monster!"

"It's just repeating what others have said!" Wang Zhong said modestly.

Long Wenjian asked, "What about the breakout plan?"

"Where should we go after breaking out?"

Wang Zhong said, "How about going down the river?"

"Going to Myanmar again?" Long Wenjian asked.

"You can't imagine it, and the Japanese can't imagine it either!" Wang Zhong said.

"From the airport to the Nujiang River, in the eyes of the Japanese, we will definitely try every possible way to cross the river and return to Zenda."

"But we don't want to cross the Nujiang River. Instead, we go the other way, return to Myanmar, and then catch them off guard?" Long Wenjian said.

"Warfare is all about deception! We must take the enemy by surprise and attack them when they are unprepared. We must make it impossible for the Japanese to figure out our movements and guess our thoughts."

"Damn it!"

"Just do it!" Long Wenjian punched his thigh hard, his eyes shining like the twinkling stars in the sky.
