The dazzling lightning of various forms "illuminated the dark and dreary land of western Yunnan, and the continuous thunder roared from far to near, from near to far. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info is like a galloping horse, instantly covering up all the sounds of heaven and earth, unpredictable huge thunder from time to time above the cold rain pouring overhead, the first rainstorm at the beginning of the rainy season, in the day of the sting.

Liang Ziyan, the captain of the 26th Army Special Brigade who was huddled under the stone wall of the mid-mountain to take shelter from the rain, was the same as more than 70 brothers, wearing a hooded and airtight military raincoat, trembling slightly, the continuous flashing lightning arc in the dark sky reflected the irrepressible horror on the young faces, and the rain curtain that fell obliquely under the strong wind violently knocked on the dense canopy and vegetation that swayed sharply, only the several Kawa guides who followed the team looked calm, Several of them were still munching on the pungent smell of betel nut and tobacco in their mouths.

Under the dazzling electric light, Liang Ziyan could even see the thick calluses on the bare feet of the middle-aged guide next to him, as well as the five toes that could be flexibly spread like fingers.

Mix betel nut and tobacco together and chew. It is a traditional habit of local residents to resist itching. It can effectively prevent poisonous insect bites and diseases such as voyeurism brought about by them, and the special team members generally use oral "Adipin" drugs, and the special leggings made in southern Yunnan have also been soaked in the potion exclusively prescribed by Mrs. Dai Zhengliang, the heir of Miao Medicine, and his brother-in-law, and each special team member has a bag on the tactical vest containing a special medicine for treating snake wounds and poisonous insect bites.

It is precisely because of the accumulated experience and full preparation that the special forces in southern Yunnan have been able to come and go freely in the lofty mountains and mountains full of miasma and poisons in western and southern Yunnan.

The thunder rumbled, the rain fell, and the plants that spread all over the field were swept by the strong wind, like stormy waves. It was undulating, and the two people next to each other couldn't hear each other. I finally waited for the thunder to go away. The heavy rain gradually stopped, and the sound of the rushing torrent suddenly resounded all over the mountains.

Looking around through the rays of dawn, Liang Ziyan and his brothers realized how lucky they were: the mountain road they had traveled had become a torrent of torrents, and the branches of the trees along the way were surrounded by frightened snakes and unnamed spotted insects, and the group was sheltered less than 15 meters below the rain. The black mountain grasshoppers crawled all over the bushes, looking extremely hideous and weird.

Several guides couldn't help but smile proudly when they saw the frightened looks on the faces of the special forces. After laughing, he generously taught the team members the knowledge of survival in the mountains, from how to choose a place to stay when the heavy rain came, the danger signs of the dry mountain streams with frequent mountain floods, and even the habits of poisonous snakes and the reasons why the mountain locusts appeared in groups at the first spring thunder, etc., and passed the building to the special team members without reservation

The sky was bright, and the light rain once again covered the heavens and the earth, and the curling mist gradually steamed and gathered. The mountains near and far were hazy, and the slowly rising temperature made the heavy military raincoats slippery, and the clothes and pants on every officer and soldier. They were all soaked by the thick damp mist, and the heat in their bodies smoked the pungent smell of their clothes and pants that had been repeatedly stained by sweat for days, the steel guns in their hands, the pistols and daggers on their waists, and all kinds of weapons. All of them were stained with a layer of water droplets, and the heavy backpack behind him seemed heavier and heavier.

The two squad leaders walked to the protruding stone slab and untied their raincoats, carried the stockless submachine gun hanging on their chests behind their backs, and used their raincoats to prop up the temporary small canopy, Liang Ziyan and his deputy and two guides squatted under the canopy, opened the waterproof map, took out the compass and began to determine their location.

After several recognitions, a middle-aged guide, who had been chewing tobacco and betel nut for many years, opened his blood-red mouth, stretched out his strong black arm, and pointed to the northwest, with great certainty, only to climb two cols to reach the intended blocking point. On that almost vertical Linjiang hill, you can easily observe the five-mile section from the west of the road to the east and west of Longling Highway.

Liang Ziyan immediately ordered the troops to eat dry food, swallow anti-disease pills, and check all equipment and bags within 20 minutes.

The radio communication team, which was hiding in the best shelter from the rain, began to get busy nervously. Connect the active antenna, turn on the radio switch, and immediately contact the western Yunnan front command in Baoshan.

At 8:10 a.m., the Longling Front Headquarters.

The battle between Shuangpo in the west of Longling City and Jiepai Laozhai had already started for more than 20 minutes, and the three brigades of the vanguard of the Anglo-Burmese coalition army, which had been invincible for several days, were finally fiercely resisted by more than 24,000 officers and men of the three divisions of the Yunnan security forces. The stretch continued, and the ground forces on both sides were on standby and ready to attack.

Zhan Huanqi, the former commander-in-chief of the enemy, took several telegrams from the communications staff officer, read them carefully, took out one of them, reviewed it again, strode to the map, and instructed Fang Pengxiang, chief of the operations section of the Anjia Army Headquarters, who was making the map, to mark the location of Mangling. Zhan Huanqi's chief of staff, Li Yunji, and Liu Qing, the intelligence director of the An Jiajun Headquarters, also surrounded him. After Fang Pengxiang marked the code name and direction, they all showed joy.

"It's fast! It seems to be going very well, who is leading the team? Li Yunji said excitedly. Zhan Huanqi replied: "The second battalion of the 26th Army Special Service Regiment, that is, the second detachment of the special brigade directly under Commander Xia, and the leader of the team is Major Liang Ziyan. ”

"Ah, is it Brother Ziyan? Isn't he Commander An's confidential secretary? How did you get to southern Yunnan? Li Yunfeng was very surprised.

Liu Qing said with a smile: "Our commander drove him to southern Yunnan, and he was originally a leader in the special major of the Ten Official School, and the year before last, he was the winner of the championship, and he returned to his old profession this time." ”

Zhan Huanqi exclaimed: "The location where they are located is quite good, only seven kilometers away from the west of the road, where the Gaogang jungle is dense, the relative height is about one hundred and fifty meters, just south of Mangshui. Condescendingly, he will have a panoramic view of this section of the road along the river, and it is believed that news of the enemy's follow-up troops will soon arrive. ”

"Report to the commander, Commander Liu Yifang of the Guizhou Army Assault Brigade sent a telegram that the single-plank bridge that was washed away by the flood has been rebuilt, and all the officers and soldiers have successfully crossed the Yanzi Stream and arrived at the designated blocking site in the afternoon." After the intelligence staff member finished the report, he handed the telegram to Zhan Huanqi. Zhan Huanqi's finger followed Luxi on the map. Gliding to the Guanyin Rock twenty-five kilometers to the south, he nodded with satisfaction at the Danglian River ferry:

"It's finally here, and I can't sleep from this thunderstorm in the second half of the night! It's just that the mountain brigade of the 6 Ping brothers has to work hard, they have been interspersed with mountains and mountains on the north road for three days, which is very hard, and they are about to face a division of the Anglo-Burmese coalition army, and the task of blocking is quite heavy. ”

Fang Pengxiang replied easily: "It's okay, I'm only tired on the march, and it's much easier to get to the Yau Song Ridge blocking position, the Yingjiang British and Burmese Army wants to gallop to the aid of Longling, and relieve the siege for the two divisions of the Burmese Army and the British Lancer Regiment, the nearest road is to cross Yau Song Ridge, and the British fighters cannot be dispatched in this weather." A feint attack on Yau Songling can only increase attrition, and a brigade can easily block the enemy's troops, and if the enemy army blindly attacks and delays for half a day, it will be more beneficial to us. ”

Li Yunfeng nodded with relief and carefully checked the map: "Where does An Jin go?" ”

"Here, Leng Mountain, fifteen kilometers southeast of Wan Town. Arrived seven hours earlier than scheduled. The Independent Brigade of the 26th Army lurked in Huilongzhai about 30 kilometers behind them. Fang Pengxiang pointed to the map and reported.

Li Yunji has been under the same tremendous pressure as Zhan Huanqi for many days. If An Yi hadn't resisted the pressure from all walks of life in the Central Military Commission, and submitted the battle plan to lure the enemy into depth to Chiang Kai-shek and won his support, I am afraid that Li Yunji would have been removed from his post and investigated for a long time like his commander Zhan Huanqi. Today, Li Yunfeng and Zhan Huanqi finally have a smiling face, the invincible British and Burmese army really seized the precious opportunity to attack Longling as judged in advance, and a heavy rain in the second half of last night could not stop the advance of the British and Burmese army, and they did not know that they had slowly entered the encirclement of the Chinese allied forces.

According to the original plan, "once the Dian army starts a counterattack." The two flanks were successfully outflanked, and the Yanxi Assault Brigade and the Independent Brigade of the 26th Army, which moved behind the enemy's main force in advance, would defeat the alert support forces along the way of the Anglo-Burmese coalition forces with lightning speed, cut off the retreat of the main forces of the Anglo-Burmese coalition forces in one fell swoop, and form a flanking attack with the three security divisions of the Dian Army in the direction of Longling; There is also the Xiangxi Mountain Brigade responsible for blocking the support of the Anglo-Burmese Allied Army West Route Army in the direction of Yingjiang and Jiucheng. Gain valuable time for the main force to encircle and annihilate the main force of the enemy. The special brigade directly under the headquarters and the special brigade of the 26th Army led by An Jin will attack the enemy's transit station, rear headquarters and field hospital in Nuancho, completely cutting off all contact between the British and Burmese troops and the rear. With the difference between the strength of the enemy and our forces more than doubled, the Anglo-Burmese coalition forces without aircraft support would not be able to escape the doom of defeat.

What reassured Li Yunqi and Zhan Huanqi even more was that the Anglo-Burmese coalition army, which had only two reserve brigades in Ruili, could not mobilize reinforcements to relieve the siege in a short period of time, and the three and a half divisions of the Anglo-Burmese army on the Burmese side of southern Yunnan would dare to draw troops to aid the western Yunnan battlefield, and the two main divisions of Xia Jian's 26th Army would cross the border and launch a fierce attack, and then drag the main Anglo-Burmese forces that were holding back the 26th Army. If the Anglo-Burmese army fails to deal with it, it will be in danger of being routed by the 26th Army, so as long as the Anglo-Burmese army is put in a dilemma for eight hours, there will be no suspense in the whole battle.

The mutual shelling that lasted for more than 40 minutes finally stopped, and the sound of machine guns and mortars was heard one after another.

Zhan Huanqi put on a steel helmet, left Li Yunmad and Liu Qing to command in situ, and together with Fang Pengxiang, he took the guards and rushed to the front line in the west of the city.

The battle was extremely fierce, and the two successive group charges of the British and Burmese troops were repulsed by the powerful machine-gun fire arranged on the first line of trenches, and the first division of the Burmese army on the right flank suffered particularly heavy losses, not only encountered dense machine-gun resistance, but also was heavily bombarded by a sudden mortar group when the second charge started.

Brigadier General Kent, the commander of the British front, was very surprised by the sudden increase in the firepower of the defenders, and after personally observing the front line, he felt a little uneasy. Immediately ordered the entire front to stop the charge, and ordered the staff group to quickly get in touch with the units in the rear. to determine whether there is an abnormality in the rear of the main forces.

However, it was too late, and before the British and Burmese troops had time to replenish their ammunition and catch their breath when the defenders arranged on both flanks of the position suddenly sounded a loud trumpet, and thousands of hateful soldiers of the Dian army jumped out of the trenches and rushed towards the enemy with loud shouts.

The counterattack has finally started in full swing!
