Chapter 58: Don't Miss the Opportunity!

The Battle of Xinkou has lasted for half a month, and the Chinese defenders and the little ghost have fought fiercely overnight, and the two sides have entered a critical moment in the battle.

Nanhuai turned into the key to the whole line of Xinkou, which is related to the overall fate of this battle.

As the commander-in-chief of the theater, Commander Wei knew the importance of Nanhuaihua, and he gathered his ace to reorganize the 22nd Division and five brigades of the Central Army, with a strength of about 30,000 people, ready to annihilate the little devils in Nanhuaihua and recapture the position.

Li Hong's security regiment, as a reserve, also received an order to withdraw and reinforce, and the troops marched to the South Huaihua position overnight to assemble.

In the moonlight, a well-trained unit was moving along the mountain road at the speed of a rapid march.

Suddenly, a radio soldier had just received a telegram and quickly ran to report to Li Hong.

"Tuanza, electric order!"

"Read!"

The radio soldier carrying the radio on his back dictated a telegram: "Zhao Changjie, commander of the 22nd Division of the Central Army, has telegraphed and informed that the officers and men of our security regiment must rush to the area around Xikou Village in Nanhuaihua before 0:00 to assemble and stand by. ”

Li Hong rolled up his sleeves and glanced at the time of his watch from the light of the headlights.

The precious Swiss watch on his wrist was given to him by Chen Shujun for dinner five days ago, which can be regarded as a kind of thank you from the Chen family's father and daughter.

At this time, it was 9:45 p.m.

Li Hong opened the map to check and soon found the exact location of the current troops.

The security regiment is not far from the area around Xikou Village, and if it moves at the current rapid marching speed, its security regiment will be able to complete the assembly task in Xikou Village, Nanhuaihua, in one hour at most.

There was still plenty of time to assemble, so Li Hong parked the three-wheeled straddle aside, and then let the troops rest in place to replenish food.

After a period of intensive military training day and night, the military quality of the officers and men of the security regiment has been markedly improved.

"Tuanzuo, we have been training for so long, practicing endlessly day and night, the brothers are all full of energy to fight devils on the front line, but I didn't think that our damn security regiment is still a reserve!" Shi Yibiao, who was sitting on the horse, complained indignantly.

"You're a fucking grumbling.

Li Hong reprimanded Shi Yibiao, and instead called the cavalry battalion commander Ma Shangfeng.

"Tuanza, what's the order?"

"Old horse, you send a squad of cavalry to the front to reconnoitre, and when you encounter a situation, you will directly fire a warning shot."

"Yes, Danza."

A cavalry squad of more than a dozen people, under the order of Ma Shangfeng, carefully reconnoitred the mountain road ahead.

Because there are many hills and ravines in this area, and it is night, it is difficult to find even if a devil army is hidden in such a terrain environment, so Li Hong is so cautious.

An hour later, the soldiers of the security regiment arrived in the vicinity of Xikou village ahead of schedule.

At this time, the cavalry in front of the reconnaissance hurriedly ran back to report the military situation.

"Phew!"

The cavalry squad leader rode to Li Hong's side on horseback, grabbed the reins and reported: "Report to the regiment commander, the devil troops were found on the hill south of Xikou Village in front. ”

Li Hong asked the team to stop and wait, then took the Mosin Nagant rifle behind him and ran to a high point to reconnoitre.

He switched his scope to 8x night observation mode, and looked into the hills on the south side of Xikou Village, which was less than a kilometer away.

I saw that a group of devils at the foot of the hill were walking around patrolling and guarding, while the devils on the rest of the hills were busy digging trenches and building various bunker fortifications.

After careful observation for a while, Li Hong put down the rifle in his hand.

The number of devils is not very large, at most it is an infantry brigade.

This area of Xikou Village is one of the main battlefield positions in Nanhuaihua, and the devils can seize this place to establish a defensive position, which can use the commanding heights to effectively provide fire support to the Nanhuaihua position, and can also block the Chinese defenders who want to recapture Nanhuaihua.

This will be just the right time for the security regiment to launch a surprise attack while the little devil is not firmly established and has not yet fully established a defensive position.

The opportunity cannot be missed, with such a favorable positional environment, Li Hong naturally wants to take it down.

The soldiers of the security regiment moved quickly to the bottom of a col not far from the hill and stood by.

This kind of night raid was not suitable for a crowded attack, and Li Hong left two companies of soldiers in his hands to attack as a commando.

In order to quickly get rid of those devils' guard posts, he spent 4,000 merit points to exchange 5 0SS high-standard silent pistols from the system, the most famous of World War II.

"Everyone remember, in tonight's raid, we only recognize military uniforms and don't recognize people, and when we see someone wearing a little devil's clothes, we will give Lao Tzu a surprise."

"Yes, Tuanza, we all get it."

The battalions and companies of the security regiment dispersed their actions in accordance with Li Hong's order, blocked several intersections under the little devil's hill, and completely cut off the enemy's retreat.

The commando soldiers stayed in place, and Li Hong picked a few soldiers with good marksmanship and familiarized them with the OSS silenced pistol.

The OSS silenced pistol, one of the most famous silent pistols during World War II, was also a special pistol for US intelligence agency agents.

A moment later, the commandos, armed with sophisticated weapons and equipment, quietly approached the little devil guard post.

There was silence all around, and the little devil sentry patrolled back and forth under the hill with weapons in his hand, and did not find the slightest commando soldier lurking nearby.

Li Hong led a few soldiers, holding pistols in their hands, and crawled towards the little devil in a low posture.

When they were more than ten meters away from the little devil, the five of them shot together.

"Puff puff ......"

Suddenly, a muffled pistol sounded.

These devil guards didn't have a chance to react at all, and they were all hit by the vital point and killed with one shot.

After eliminating these sentries, Li Hong waved his hand and led the assault team to rush towards the hill.

There are a lot of devil sentries around the hill who are in charge of guarding, but they all died silently under Li Hong's gun, this silent pistol is worthy of being an assassination to solve the guard post artifact.

At this moment, the devils who were building fortifications on the hill had no idea that the commandos had touched their noses.

The purpose of Li Hong's attack was very clear and tactical, and he took advantage of the darkness to disrupt the little devils, and he himself led a platoon to quickly rush to the headquarters of the devil brigade.

"Da Da Da-"

A series of submachine gun gunfire broke the dead silence of the hill, and orange gunfire flashed around the devil's headquarters.

In the night, it can be clearly seen that the bullets formed countless fiery red bullet firing lines and flew towards the headquarters of the brigade that the little devil had just set up.

"Commando, give Lao Tzu the command of the devil, rush!"

Li Hong roared loudly, holding a submachine gun in his hand, and led the commando team to rush all the way, shooting devils all the way.

"Uh, uh, uh......"

The little devils guarding the headquarters were caught off guard by the rushing commandos and fell one after another.

"Da Da Da-"

The soldiers of the security regiment were trained to fight overnight, and after a while, Li Hong led people to rush to the door of the devil's headquarters.
