The convoy fell back into the town as fast as it could, and the troops who remained here immediately got busy, unloading equipment and cargo, checking helicopters, trucks for damage, picking up the wounded, transporting them to hospitals, and so on.

The whole town was in operation, and the soldiers and staff could be seen busy in all areas. In particular, the doctors and soldiers who took over the wounded were arguably the busiest.

Zhang Tianhai and the others unloaded their weapons and sat aside to rest. The soldiers of the special team also returned to report, Zhang Tianhai and them, and they also needed to submit a battle report after a while, so they rested here for a while and went back soon.

This time the battle can be said to be a complete victory, cutting off a supply line for the Japanese army, and putting a lot of pressure on the main force of the Japanese army.

Although the Chinese troops completely annihilated the Japanese garrison, their own casualties were not light, more were seriously wounded, and after they came back, the hospital was also doing its best to rescue them, but even so, many died in the hospital.

These people are completely incapacitated, and even if they survive, they must be transported to the rear for treatment. Once you leave here, you can't come back for a long time.

It can be said that this indirectly weakened the power of the town guards. The rear reserves will rush here to replenish their forces in the near future, but this is when the town's defenses are at their weakest.

This is also the most important point for the troops here to be on guard against now, so the troops who have just returned from the battle do not have much time to rest, so they need to quickly replenish the patrol team. Strengthened defense.

As long as this battle is prevented, the battle can be said to be a complete victory.

The report was submitted, and the black saber was not idle. General Wang got in touch with Zhang Tianhai the next day.

"I can't rest yet, and I have a new mission for you." General Wang said more sternly.

For this, Zhang Tianhai and others were also prepared, and said lightly: "Please speak." ”

"I need you to go to the frontal battlefield."

General Wang sat in his office, flipped through a document in his hand, and said: "On the frontal battlefield, our army now has an overall advantage, but the surrounding problems are not small. Just yesterday. The same time as the battle in the town of Jinping. On the side of the battlefield, a unit of our army was cut off by the enemy, suffered heavy losses, and had to flee into the mountains as a last resort, losing contact with the troops. What can now be confirmed is that most of them are still alive. I don't know exactly where they are now, though. So I want you to be able to go to that area. Find their location. It would be better if you could bring them out. ”

"Looking for someone?" Zhang Tianhai asked.

"Yes. Their radio station was destroyed. For a time it was impossible to get in touch with the rear. You can go to Command first, and they'll give you something that will emit a wave band for Command to receive and confirm your movements. As soon as you find the place where the troops are hiding, you can open it and the mission is complete. After all, they are all brothers of our army, and we will not give up on them. ”

"Understood, we'll go right away."

General Wang nodded: "Well, with you dispatched, I am much more relieved." However, I would also like to warn you that there are enemy lines there, and although there will not be more patrols than when the barracks were bombed before, once the traces are exposed, it will be a disaster for you, so you must stay hidden so that you can find your target. When you're ready, head to the airport, where helicopters are already waiting for you. ”

"Understood."

Zhang Tianhai hung up the communication, turned his head, and said to Yang Hao and the others: "Did you hear it?" It's stealth missions again, and that's our forte. The gilly suits should have been kept in the barracks, and now they are all taken out, and then we will go to the front line headquarters. ”

Yang Hao and the others nodded and left here.

About half an hour later, several people got into a car and headed for the airport.

There was a helicopter waiting for them at the airport for a long time. After confirming their identities, soldiers led them to the place where the helicopter was.

Sitting on the helicopter, the helicopter immediately slowly started off the ground and headed towards the front line.

It was the same route as when it came here, and the helicopter landed at the front-line headquarters a few hours later, dropped a few people, and then flew back quickly, without stopping for half a minute.

Zhang Tianhai and the others watched the helicopter rise, and then walked quickly into the command headquarters: "The black saber team is here to report." ”

General Sun Hang turned his head to look at them, then nodded, put down the pen in his hand, and walked over.

"You may be seated."

General Sun took a piece of information from the adjutant and handed it to Zhang Tianhai: "There is not much time, so I will get straight to the point." The missing team was a soldier of the 1st Battalion of the 6th Regiment of the 67th Brigade, who was cut off by the enemy during yesterday's outflanking operation and became a lone army. In order not to destroy themselves, a battalion of soldiers fled into the mountains en masse. ”

As he spoke, General Wang unfolded a map and placed it on the table in front of everyone, and then pointed to an area: "This is it." ”

Zhang Tianhai and the others took a closer look.

This area is full of mountain peaks, there are basically no roads and flatlands, and the lowest place is about 200 meters higher than itself, so it can be said that it is already a large area of highland.

General Sun let everyone look at it for a while before continuing: "There are a total of three rivers passing through this area, and the vegetation is dense, and the supplies on the soldiers are enough, even if there is no food on them, they can last at least three days by gathering. All you need to do is to confirm where they are now, and then tell us their coordinates, and the main force will be there as soon as possible to rescue you. ”

"What about departure time?" Zhang Tianhai asked.

"The sooner the better. But I know you've just been through a big battle, so you can take a short break here. ”

Zhang Tianhai shook his head: "No need, please provide us with the equipment we need, and we will set off in two hours." ”

General Sun also nodded and said, "That's the best." Please go to the logistics department and pick up the equipment you need, they will provide you with what you need. Come back here in two hours, and I'll give you the authority and the orders, and if you can find the force, you can show the orders and the authority to follow you. ”

"Understood."

Zhang Tianhai and the others stood up and immediately left the headquarters.

General Sun watched Zhang Tianhai and the others leave, and after a long time, he turned his head: "How many casualties are the withdrawn troops?" ”

"It is reported that more than 24 percent of the 106 Brigade that has just been withdrawn has 600 killed and 73 missing."

General Sun looked at the map in front of him and did not speak for a while.

His troops had lost too many of them, and if they continued like this, even if they won, they would be a crushing victory.

"It's time to be decisive." General Sun muttered.

Zhang Tianhai came to the logistics department as quickly as possible. The logistics unit confirmed their identity, immediately understood the equipment they needed and the conditions of the task, and brought them into the warehouse.

"Pick what you need, and this thing."

The soldier handed Zhang Tianhai something the size of a fist, shaped like the warhead of an artillery shell, but it was smoother, and there were quite a few buttons on it.

"This is the signal transmitter, the sending band in it has been adjusted, as soon as you find the troops, press the button to activate, it will automatically send a band back. The bands have been processed so that only our intelligence services can collect them, so there is no need to worry about being intercepted by the enemy. ”

As he spoke, the soldier pulled out two boxes and took out two more: "There are three of them, you can carry them separately." It's not usually easy to use, and it's hard to send special bands, so it's always been here, but it's a great thing for your mission. ”

"Okay, thank you."

Zhang Tianhai took the transmitter and nodded to the soldier. The soldier said no more, and reached out towards the interior of the warehouse.

Zhang Tianhai also knew that the time was relatively tight now, so he waved his hand and led everyone into the warehouse.

I just came down from the battlefield yesterday, and I didn't have time to replenish the ammunition on my body, so the most important thing for everyone is ammunition. Basically, there is not much consumption of medicine, so there is no need to replenish it, but food and water should be brought with you.

This hike to find the troops, along the way may consume a lot of time, if you can't find food in the wilderness, you can only eat your own things, so you must bring more food as a consumable.

However, there are three rivers in that mountainous area, so you can bring less water, but you still need to bring the necessary containers.

It doesn't take long to replenish all the equipment. As soon as Qiē was basically ready, Zhang Tianhai and the others sat together.

"There is no plan for this operation. There are many roads in the mountains, and we don't have any purpose, so we can only enter the mountains first, and then respond to the situation. Don't spread out too much during the action, and try to avoid the roads along the way, as before, it's best to be able to complete the mission without firing, so be sure to avoid all enemies. As for finding the troops......"

Zhang Tianhai paused for a moment before continuing: "Let's talk about it after I find them." ”

He wasn't sure he would be able to find it. They can provide air support, and the area they want to find needs to go out step by step, so they are destined to have a very poor efficiency, and it is very likely that they will not be able to hold on before they find this force.

"All the roads we have traveled are marked on the map, and once the frontal troops cannot meet us, we must go out on our own, so we must not forget the road we have traveled." Zhang Tianhai finally said. (To be continued......)
