"After the eastern scar was eliminated, Qingxiang recovered the bandits from the west and north, and at present, these two forces have more than 2,000 people, and they are currently stationed at Taiyangya, five kilometers from Tongyuan Pass. After Wang Dehua finished speaking, he put the command rod in his hand on the table.

The sun is low, Duan Qirui stood up, the terrain of the sun is a slope, and the mountains and forests are dense. Shrouded in clouds and mist, such a terrain is not suitable for airships at all.

"Looks like there's a tough battle going on." Duan Qirui, who thought about it for a while, said to Wang Dehua beside him.

Wang Dehua and Duan Qirui have the same idea, if they want to attack Loushangguan this time, they must take the Sun Ya, if they want to take the Sun Ya, they will have to.

"Let's go and have a look." It's useless to talk too much, it's useless to say anything here, and the only way is to immediately go to the sun to reconnoiter the terrain, and then make plans.

From here, it's an hour's journey to Sunya. Along the way, Duan Qirui and Wang Dehua did not stop on the horses, but went all the way to the forward position of the 33rd Division.

The 33rd Division was the main force in this attack on Loushan Pass, and at present, there are more than 6,000 troops concentrated here.

From here, there was still a distance of three kilometers from Sun Ya, and after explaining the intention, the front line immediately sent a reinforced platoon to escort Duan Qirui to the closest place to Sun Ya.

"Commander, we can't go to the front, we don't have anything to dodge from." A lieutenant said after walking up a hillside.

This lieutenant should be from the reconnaissance company, hearing this, Duan Qirui stopped and immediately raised the telescope.

Sure enough, in front, there is a wide area of nearly five hundred meters, this section has been linked to the Sun Ya, from here, the Sun Ya is cloudy and mist, and many places are not clear at all, but Duan Qirui knows that in the dense forest opposite, there are at least more than 3,000 people waiting for him.

"Commander, it's not easy to fight, it's a wide area of more than 500 meters, if the enemy sets up machine guns on it, we will suffer heavy losses." Wang Dehua, who also picked up the binoculars and looked at it, walked up to Duan Qirui and said.

Duan Qirui had already seen this problem. If you want to attack the sun, you can only safely pass through this wide area of several hundred meters.

He can't afford to gamble, although he knows that the weapons and equipment of these bandits are backward, but no one can know whether Qingxiang mobilized machine guns to get here, and if artillery is set up here, it will be a threat to himself at that time.

"How about asking Beijing?"

Ask for instructions in Beijing, Wang Dehua looked puzzled, he didn't understand what Duan Qirui meant, and after a few minutes, Wang Dehua understood that this was to ask for smoke bombs.

"I agree." Wang Dehua, who understood, said.

Well, now that his chief of staff has agreed, Duan Qirui immediately did not have any doubts, but looked at the staff officer in front of him: "Beijing, urgent telegram." ”

Renshou Hall of the Summer Palace in Beijing. After Liu Jun looked at the documents of the Security Bureau again, he put them on the table, and then asked Zheng Yiqian in front of him: "Pang Sheng, have they set off?" ”

After Pang Sheng took over the Security Bureau, his first task was to cooperate with Duan Qirui in the Zunyi area to arrest some people who had escaped, although these people no longer pose any threat to the whole situation, but Liu Jun did not intend to let go of these people, his hands were already stained with the blood of too many people, for this kind of people, he would never tolerate the traitors and give them a chance to survive.

"Pang Sheng has set off in Beijing yesterday afternoon, and is expected to arrive in Wuhan this evening, and then enter Chongqing by water and then go to Zunyi."

Trouble, hearing Zheng Yiqian say this, Liu Jun frowned and said: "It's too slow, the Zunyi area is so big, if you wait until Pang Sheng and them pass slowly like this, when will they be able to arrest it, like this." Saying this, Liu Jun pointed to Zhong Lin in front of him: "You go and send a telegram to the Wuhan airship base, telling them that once Pang Sheng and them arrive in Wuhan, they don't need to take a boat, they can go directly by airship." “

"Okay." Zhong Lin replied, and then retreated.

About a few minutes later, Zhong Lin ran back again, and in his hand, he also picked up a telegram.

This girl's speed is fast, and she ran back when she saw Zhong Lin. Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin with a puzzled expression.

"Didn't you go to send a telegram, you flew?" When Zhong Lin came in, Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin with a puzzled expression.

Zhong Lin smiled, and then said, "Head, I didn't go." ”

Nima, is it bold, Lao Tzu's orders should be disobeyed, and he was about to teach Zhong Lin a good lesson, Zhong Lin immediately said: "Head, I just went out, and it happened that someone from the telegraph office came, so I handed over the telegram to them, and I brought Duan Qirui's telegram over." “

Duan Qirui's telegram, this guy usually doesn't send telegrams to himself, but once it is sent, it must be difficult, thinking of this, Liu Jun looked at Zhong Lin: "Is there any difficulty for Duan Madman." ”

Liu Jun really didn't guess wrong, hearing Liu Jun say this, Zhong Lin immediately smiled, and then took out the telegram from his sleeve: "Head, Duan Qirui said in the telegram that after the eastern mountain was occupied, Qingxiang concentrated the bandits on several sides of the mountain to Sun Ya, and the terrain of Sun Ya is too complicated, with a wide area of nearly five hundred meters wide. ”

Okay, needless to say, hearing this, Liu Jun already knew why Duan Qirui sent the message.

Under the sun is a wide area, if there is a forced attack, once the other side opens light and heavy machine gun fire, their own soldiers, then one by one, sacrifice, these people, if in a foreign war, sacrifice, it is easy to say, but if on the way to suppress bandits did something that should not have appeared, this is what they do not want to see.

"What does Duan Qirui want?" Liu Jun asked directly.

What do you want, Zhong Lin looked at the message again.

"They asked for smoke bombs."

Smoke grenades? This is a solution, hearing this, Liu Jun nodded slightly.

Smoke grenades are a kind of masking weapon developed by the Northeast Ordnance Bureau, this kind of ammunition itself does not have any offensive ability, but it can release a large amount of smoke. Once this smoke is released, you don't even want to see anything around you.

It is also an effective cover for the attacking troops. It allows the troops to quickly launch attacks, take positions, and destroy the enemy.
