The door of the courtyard house has been welded dead

Chapter 499 Lei Zhen swings his sword
"Sir He, I want to go to the front line of Hongshantou!"

In the front finger, the noise disappeared instantly, and the commander, who had been silently watching the sand table, slowly stood up straight.

Staff Officer Lei straightened his chest and stood proudly among the many staff officers with a silent expression on his face, as if the words just now did not come from his mouth.

"Since the enemy is invading in large numbers and the troops are pointing directly at the Red Head Valley, I want to lead the 11th Regiment to occupy the Red Head Mountain first. The 114th Brigade will finally come out of the turtle shell. The city defense of Leh must have been mobilized and the interior will be empty. It’s the perfect time!”

Staff Officer Lei stood solemnly beside the sand table, picked up his baton, and drew a straight line from Hongtou Mountain to the west, pointing directly at Leh, the capital of the blue side of the exercise.

It can be said that this place belongs to the Central Plains here, a traffic chokepoint, and Sri Nagar can be reached to the west. If the Chuma Fortress is opened to the south, then the northern gate of the Blue Army will be undefeated.

Because, it is like Shanhaiguan. As long as you pass by, it will be a vast plain. The distance from the heart of the Blue Army will be shortened to 200 kilometers in an instant. It is really an important place that can be attacked, retreated and defended.

What is the concept? 200 kilometers on the plains can be covered in a matter of hours as long as the car steps on the accelerator.

"With the strength of a regiment, even the remaining defenders should be able to deploy a brigade. Can you handle it with 2000 men?"

Chief He looked directly at the middle-aged staff officer from the capital. He tactically defeated Hongtou Mountain and then rushed to Leh City. It can be said that the black tiger ripped out the heart and directly cut off the retreat of the 114th Brigade. But the person who made this suggestion was him. I was a little worried. After all, Lei Zhen was not conspicuous among the many staff officers.

"Don't use two thousand, keep five hundred. Use the existing positions to block the 114th Brigade at the foot of the mountain, take the city, and turn around. The 114th Brigade will be the dumplings floating in the pot!"

Lei Zhen shook his head slowly. One thousand, five hundred people. This was after conquering seventeen strongholds and not a single person was "killed." The actual situation must be lower than this number, but he still stood up. .

Everyone knows that this transaction is very risky, but the benefits are very considerable. According to the current situation, the enemy forces at the forefront have been completely wiped out. If the 114th Brigade is less courageous and chooses to return to defense, it will undoubtedly be the next step. The offense puts up obstacles.

If an urban area defended by a no-name local maintenance brigade is joined by a regular brigade for joint defense, the attackers will have no choice but to invest endless forces and fall into a deep whirlpool.

Rather than doing this, it is better to eliminate the establishment in the wild, even if the unforeseen risks are very high.

Commander He didn't understand the reason, but he had been hesitating. On the Western Front, in the first exercise, he won very well and got off to a good start. However, he made a wrong move. He was in a small position when he went down, but he was in a big position when he lost his position.

"I will give you another regiment. The position of the 10th regiment will be defended by the 2nd regiment. The 10th and 11th regiments are two regiments. If you can capture the lower city, I will remember you for your success!"

Pacing back and forth on the spot, Chief He then decided to punch the edge of the sand table with his fist, staring at Lei Zhen with wide eyes, and his voice echoed through his front fingers.

"Sir He, at Spangur Lake, the front line is too wide. I'm afraid it will be very difficult for the 2nd regiment?"

The chief of staff, after observing the defense status of the position after deploying troops, said with an indescribable expression. He knew something about Lei Zhen under his command, but this step was too bold, with a hint of worry in his words.

"After the 2nd regiment is finished, there will be a 3rd cavalry regiment with a five-kilometer defense line. If the Hongtoushan position is captured, facing the threat from the flanks, the 114th Brigade will not dare to withdraw and take danger!"

"I'm asking you now, with two regiments of 4000 people under your command, can you win it~!"

Chief He ignored the chief of staff's question. After calculating in his mind, he said firmly, pointing his finger directly at the center of the sand table.

"If you can't take it off, I, Lei Zhen, will come back with my head!"

...8:25 p.m.

The Hongshishan exercise battle officially started.

With the annihilation of the leading troops of the 114th Brigade, the 11th Regiment then received the order from the front commander to abandon the current position and the entire regiment went straight to Hongshi Mountain.

How many people are there in a group? Two thousand. When they gather together, you can see densely packed figures from a high place, but when they are scattered on the top of the mountain, they are too sparse to see.

The company whose front legs were still in the trench jumped out of position in an instant and rushed towards the red stone mountain on the flank. At this time, you can see the training status of the soldiers.

Even if it was dark night, each battalion, company, and squad formed an offensive team formation according to the principle of three-three system in combat. With their hunched bodies and the snow covering their feet, they headed straight for their respective goals.

Staff Officer Lei also arrived at the front line at this time, observing the bunker on the mountain with the telescope hanging on his chest.

The first one to engage in the exchange of fire was Tianyin No. 6 bunker, which was at the forefront of the blue army's fortifications. Almost all the other dozen forts were built around it. It can be said that it is the front tooth that must be knocked out.

The artillerymen at the rear fired fiercely, and thick smoke could be seen even in the dark.

At 8:55, after the shelling ended.

The 11rd Battalion of the 3th Regiment launched an attack on Fortress No. 6. Standing at the foot of the mountain, one could see the tail flames of 40-mm fire shooting out from time to time. The trajectory of tracer projectiles from both sides lit up the entire battlefield.

When two crossed fire dragons sprayed from the bottom of the mountain along the machine gun muzzle of the bunker, time seemed to freeze at this moment.

The defenders on Hongtou Mountain were really caught off guard. It was obvious that they were invading in large numbers, and they were all out. Where did the other party's people come from to attack their side? Didn't they lose their position? Even if they captured this side, their position would be conquered. These people on the mountainside will never come back.

Urgent telegrams from all lines filled the semi-basement fortifications. Each of the 16 bunkers received special attention. The operator in front of the radio station pressed the transmitter until it started to smoke.

The hesitant 114th Brigade was also in chaos at this time. Before they could digest the bad news that the leading troops in front had been wiped out, the opponent turned around and pointed his sword straight at the flank. He swung his sword and struck with a backhand attack.

Whether it was a feint attack or a real attack, Kaul's expression on the jeep was uncertain. If he went to rescue the siege and wasted time, would the other party send reinforcements?

"Why is there no 1st Battalion? Are the people on the mountain covered by the dark night?"

"Your Excellency, Brigadier, the bunker cannot be captured in less than a day. We cannot be deceived by them. They must be in a weak state when they attack Hongtou Mountain and the observatory's frontline positions!"

The staff officer's words allowed the troubled Caul to regain his confidence. Yes, as long as the observatory was captured before them, the enemies on the mountainside would become pigs.

"Full speed ahead, order Red Head Mountain, full defense, guys, we need to seize the moment and kick their ass!"

At 9:45, when the entire 114th Brigade army had just arrived at the Observatory, the Hongshantou bunker position, which was said to be able to hold for at least one day, officially changed its flag.
