I really came here to fight against Japan

Chapter 551 Searching for a Rapid Breakthrough

First, let’s go back to 3:30 in the morning of January 2nd.

Now let’s talk about the process of the army commander’s guard division and the main force of the army headquarters breaking out.

The military chiefs and the army commanders were waiting silently in the cold wind.

Fortunately, under Fu Shan's arrangement, they were all given thick clothes.

From the outside, the clothes looked heavy, but only the military guards knew the real situation.

The reason why the leader's clothes seemed too heavy was because there was a sling sewn inside the clothes.

All the military funds in the Iron Army headquarters were placed in the saddle bag in the form of gold bars, which was why it was so heavy.

Now without the burden of non-combatants, they have entered the ambush circle set up by the National Army.

Leading the way was the Guard Division's search company, which was rapidly infiltrating the Kuomintang's positions.

By the way, they said they were a search company, but the army commander and military leaders were not willing to believe it at all.

Professional, they are too professional. Everyone is like a ghost, searching for the lives of the national army.

They were like mercury leaking out on the ground, killing all the sentries on the Kuomintang positions.

Some of them used knives and went around the sentries like ghosts, cutting them off their necks without any hesitation.

Some used a pistol with a half-foot long "tube" and shot directly at it.

The leaders were in the back, watching through binoculars as they searched for the company's actions.

Seeing them firing their guns, they all cried out inwardly, "Oh no! Isn't this exposing the target?"

But their pistols had already fired, and the Kuomintang sentry fell from the three-meter-high watchtower.

The leaders hiding in the woods behind did not hear any movement.

Even the unfortunate Kuomintang sentry was caught by the search company below when he fell.

In the eyes of the leaders, they were like ghosts and silent.

He is truly the strongest soldier they have ever seen. They don’t know how Fu Shan trains his soldiers in his daily life.

How did they gather such a powerful army so quietly?

They thought, what if these soldiers launched a sneak attack on their own iron army's positions?

The situation is not much better than that of the national army here.

Seeing this scene, the corners of Master Fu Shan's mouth twitched continuously.

He had no real understanding of the strength of this search company beforehand.

He had only heard Commander Song say, "This army is really strong."

I heard that they were the second batch of special forces of the Gannan Allied Forces.

The troops that Song Wenwan brought into Jiangxi at that time were their original bodies.

After being trained by Zhou Weiguo in the past two years, they are no less capable than the special forces of various countries in later generations.

Commander Song said that he wanted to borrow them for use, and if he felt that this unit was okay, they could stay in the New Fourth Army.

Fu Shan now had only one idea, that is, he had made a profit this time, and he must keep this army at all costs.

Today, the Kuomintang army's sentries were replaced at three o'clock. At this moment, everyone in the Kuomintang camp was sleeping soundly.

The search company of the Guard Division cleared out the guard posts on the Kuomintang positions in just twenty minutes.

As for the back of the national army's position...

The national army was very arrogant this time. They buried many mines relying on the exit of the valley.

They also used light and heavy machine guns and various types of artillery to guard the valley entrance as if it were an impregnable fortress.

But at this point in time, light and heavy machine guns and artillery are all placed in the rear positions.

And the mines set up by the national army were not loaded.

The reason the Kuomintang soldiers didn't wind up the rifles wasn't because they were lazy. They were afraid that the rifles might be set off by small animals, which would alert the New Fourth Army.

Only one line of defense was set up at the valley pass because the Kuomintang generals believed that this was enough.

Because the New Fourth Army lacked heavy weapons, they would probably have to pay a heavy price to pass through the preset minefields.

What's more, the light and heavy machine guns and various types of artillery prepared by the National Army in the rear positions are not just for decoration.

They were confident that they could completely wipe out the Iron Army's headquarters in this valley.

So this is an important position that has no depth and lacks soldiers guarding it.

It was easily broken through by the search company sent by the New Fourth Army.

All that was left for them to do was to quickly get their entire army through the blockade and advance directly eastward.

They prepared two plans in advance. If the national army was not alerted, they would head straight north.

When the National Army changed its sentries at five o'clock, they discovered that the Iron Army had already broken through.

By the time they wanted to pursue them, the Iron Army's troops had already run far away.

If they were discovered by the Kuomintang sentries during the infiltration process, they would first move north and then turn east.

Now all the New Fourth Army troops are rapidly crossing the Kuomintang positions.

The swirling cold wind made a whistling sound, just covering up the sound of their marching footsteps.

Seeing that all the Iron Army troops would rush out in a short while, the army commander breathed a sigh of relief.

The military debated for three months but still could not reach a conclusion.

As a result, a secret move by the Shaanxi-Gansu headquarters perfectly helped them solve this problem.

But the military chiefs might be feeling very unhappy.

After everyone has marched to a safe area, I will still have to give him some guidance.

Chief... Eh? Where is this chief comrade?

He was anxious, and there must be no accidents in today's operation.

Otherwise, if the entire army breaks out and you lose the top leader, that would be really laughable.

The commander quickly pulled over a military staff officer and asked him in a low voice.

"Staff Officer Liu, have you seen our leader? Where did he go?"

Staff Officer Liu: "Commander, I saw the commander and his guard platoon leader go to the back of the hill over there. They seemed to be going to the toilet."

Fu Shan was listening on the side and became anxious. He immediately asked the soldiers in his guard squad to run over and take a look.

Song Wenwan had told him this as early as when he met her.

When they set out to break out, they must take all the military chief's guards away.

Let the comrades of the Guard Division be responsible for protecting them, so that people can be assured of the safety of these leaders.

However, the army commander did not agree with this suggestion. It was equivalent to seizing the military power and then disarming others.

Now is the time to break out, you don't have time to explain to the officers and soldiers below, this kind of thing will cause big trouble.

Moreover, this was not the opinion of northern Shaanxi, but just the "own" opinion of Division Commander Fu Shan, which was directly rejected by the army commander.

When Fu Shan took a look at the leaders' guards, he found that they all looked square and did not look like bad people.

He did not insist. After all, everyone was among the guards, so he was not afraid of anything happening to them.

Suddenly, they found that the leader was missing and had been taken away by his guards.

Division Commander Fu Shan immediately remembered Commander Song’s instructions and quickly sent out his guard squad to look for him.

The soldiers of the guard squad were searching forward when they heard two muffled sounds coming from the back of the hillside.

It was like the sound of a gun being covered by a quilt and the trigger being pulled.

Then another crisp gunshot rang out, finally breaking the silence of the night.

"not good!"

The army commander and division commander Fu Shan shouted at the same time, then the army commander ran to the hillside and Fu Shan ran to the valley entrance.

As soon as the commander reached the foot of the hill, he saw the soldiers of Fu Shan’s guard squad helping their leader over.
