However, the Japanese troops in Jigong Mountain were more abnormal, and they were the devils of a wing when they came up, and they attacked directly head-on with artillery fire, and almost did not suppress their first round of attack with one-third of our firepower, and actually let their vanguard rush to the front line, less than 100 meters, or the artillery of the main fort bombarded them down, and the Japanese casualties were nearly 500 people, and our army also had nearly 100 casualties

After listening to Liu He's report, Jiang Haoran didn't ask much, the order was as cold as frost, he wanted to go to the front to take a look, and then ordered Liu He to summarize the battle report and immediately send it to the Chongqing Supreme Military Commission

Liu He picked up the telegram and hurriedly glanced at Jiang Haoran with a puzzled expression, Jiang Haoran rolled his eyes at him and ordered him to carry it out

Leng Rushuang came in and reported that the car was ready, Jiang Haoran raised his legs and left, just stopped at the door, called Liu He aside, told Wang Shanhu what he had entrusted him, and asked him to arrange for Ye Zhaofeng to carry out the airdrop on time

Chongqing was full of wolf smoke, and the chairman of the committee naturally couldn't sleep peacefully, got up early, and after breakfast, he began to review the war reports in various places and read the newspapers and periodicals of the mainstream media

In just one night, the war situation reports from all over the country were piled up, and there was almost no good news, and the words "lost", "fallen", and "urgent" were everywhere, but in the past few days, all the chairman's thoughts were in Hunan, and he was only interested in the war situation report of the Ninth War Zone. This is Chen Chen and Bai Chong's evaluation of this battle, of course, it comes from their visit to Jiang Haoran's 331 base, and they are completely shocked by Jiang Haoran's war talent

Hearing their description of the 331 base, the chairman was also shocked, but there was a trace of trepidation in this shock

After the Battle of Nanchang, the chairman of the committee still had a trace of guilt for abandoning Jiang Haoran, but it didn't take long for this guilt to be replaced by an inexplicable uneasiness

Since the Battle of Nanchang, Dai Li no longer said bad things about Jiang Haoran positively, but he would always put all kinds of Jiang Haoran's news in other intelligence, and guaranteed that the kind that the chairman must read, which seemed to be unintentional, was actually intentional

For example, Jiang Haoran had many suspicious points in the retreat of Nanchang and cooperated seamlessly with "that side", and even when the New Fourth Army retreated, it was only by using our army's drifting mines to block the enemy that it was able to successfully get out, for example, during the rescue in Nanjing, Jiang Haoran called the Communist Party agents "comrades", and trusted the other party's agents more during the operation, for example, the Military Commission only allocated a military salary of 18,000 people from one division to the Nanshan Independent Army, but nearly 80,000 people in the whole army received the military salary in full, not counting the reward for meritorious soldiers, the grain and grass of 100,000 laborers, and so on

Every time the chairman of the committee thinks of this, he has a headache, and a unit can be separated from the military department's food, grass, weapons, ammunition, and other equipment. Although Jiang Haoran is his nephew, but driven by power, how many fathers and sons can meet each other, the most annoying thing is that the current radio newspapers, news headlines, and the front page are Jiang Haoran, so that his position in the hearts of the military and the people has skyrocketed, and he can't stop, once it is really as Jiang Haoran said, the 331 base will usher in an unprecedented victory, and its influence among the people is immeasurable, and for a long time, will the people of this country still remember him, Jiang Jiezhong

Just when the chairman of the committee was in reverie, Wang Shihe, the chief of the palace guard, walked in quickly, with a happy face: "The secret message from the chairman Haoran was sent directly to the chamber of the state government."

"Oh," although there was a hint of puzzlement on the chairman's face, he still quickly took the telegram, and Mrs. Wen probably heard the news of Jiang Haoran, and hurriedly walked out of the door, and asked eagerly: "What did Darling Haoran say?"

"The enemy chieftain is approaching the city, Haoran feels pressure, and requests tactical guidance, please ask my uncle to be there in command," the chairman of the committee raised the telegram in his hand and said: "Tell me what Haoran means, with his tactical literacy, ask me for tactical guidance, isn't this a big joke in the world?"

Madame took the telegram and glanced at it hurriedly, and then said with a smile like a flower: "If you want me to say that Haoran is really intimate, he has your uncle in his heart, but your uncle is always wary of him, alas."

"Oh, what do you say," the chairman asked, puzzled

"Hehe, don't pretend to be confused in front of me, don't you understand, this is Haoran sending you a great credit, let you straighten your waist in front of the countrymen, see who dares to say that you, Jiang, someone is not effective in the war of resistance"

The chairman bowed his head and was silent, no one knew what he was thinking, and after a long time he looked up at his wife: "Do you say I am going or not going?"

"Go why not go and without further ado"

"Shihe"

Two kilometers away from the 331 base, there is a mountain peak called Funiu Mountain, which is more than 600 meters above sea level. Xiaojianling is also more than 100 meters high, the mountain was originally dense with trees and bushes, but this side close to the base has been cut down at the beginning of the construction of the base, coupled with the forest fires caused by the enemy's repeated bombing, the forest in this area has basically burned down, presenting a black barren mountain range, and the view of Funiu Mountain is good, basically the entire 331 base of the outer battlefield can be seen

From the beginning of the attack on the 331st base by the Fifth Division of the Imperial Allied Army in the early morning, Lieutenant General Shiro Inaba, the commander of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army, and Lieutenant General Shinichi Tanaka, the commander of the 104th Division of the Japanese Army, took their staff officers, surveyors, and hundreds of people, including Inuyotaro, a famous civil engineering expert of the empire urgently transferred from Nanjing, to climb Funiu Mountain to face the entire offensive process of the Imperial Allied Army

From the Funiu Mountain, the big and small Jianling are like a giant * big "M" shape, the two are only a mile apart, a road and a railway pass through the two valleys, the original two independent peaks have been connected at this moment, the top is the arc-shaped mountain built of steel and concrete, you can see countless lookouts and gun muzzles in the middle, and further down is the railway and highway of the black hole, which makes people unconsciously produce a chilling sense of being swallowed up at a glance

Extending from the big and small Jianling to the left and right, there is a mountain range with continuous ups and downs, connecting Dawei Mountain to the west and Jigong Mountain to the north

Two hundred meters from the mountainside, a trench of half reinforced concrete structure rolled like a giant python, and the trench was concave, and it was not even visible from the air
