Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1362, I personally lead the team

calm.

calm.

Remind yourself repeatedly to be low-key.

Don't get carried away.

You only have twelve 150mm howitzers. But there were more than a hundred Japanese invaders.

Moreover, others have more than two hundred 105mm heavy cannons. The power cannot be underestimated either.

The most important thing is that your own damage cannot be replenished.

The damage caused by the Japanese invaders can be replenished and restored at any time.

The peak period of Japanese military production has not yet arrived. 40 and 41 years are the peak.

Although it cannot be compared with perverts like the beautiful country. However, others can also produce hundreds of 150mm howitzers a year.

And the national army...

never mind. Not a single door.

150mm does not. Neither does the 105mm one.

There are no large-caliber howitzers in the Soviet aid.

We have to wait until a large amount of US aid arrives before we have the opportunity to equip the 105mm howitzer.

I wonder if there are 150mm howitzers in the US aid? My impression is not.

Rub your hands vigorously.

I still couldn't contain my excitement.

There's a cannon...

There is a sword...

Suddenly I remembered another thing.

"By the way, Captain Meng, what supplies do you still lack?"

"gasoline…"

"I'll arrange it right away! Deliver it right away!"

gasoline?

There are too many, there are many.

Apart from ammunition, gas seems to be the most important thing.

How much oil reserves does the system have? Five billion barrels? There seems to be quite a lot…

"Mr. Commissioner..."

Peng Mengji started to speak but stopped.

There are many questions to ask. But it was inconvenient to speak.

Worry is a military secret.

result…

Zhang Yong said directly, "Captain Peng, don't ask what you shouldn't ask. Don't know what you shouldn't know."

"Yes!" Peng Mengji was trembling and replied solemnly.

"Before dark, we must enter Yancang Bridge and then deploy. Follow orders at any time."

"clear."

"Somebody come!"

"arrive!"

"Remove all ships to Xiaguan Pier."

"clear."

Zhang Yong solemnly ordered.

This tenth artillery regiment must not run away.

Even if Chiang Kai-shek personally ordered it, it would be useless.

First, move all the ships from Zhongshan Pier to Xiaguan Pier.

This is called careful sailing.

"Walk!"

After everything is arranged properly, we can leave with confidence.

From time to time, the position of the 10th Artillery Regiment was monitored on the air command map. Promise not to run away.

No wonder Zhang Yong is so nervous. Mainly due to Chiang Kai-shek's saucy operations.

Chiang Kai-shek often micro-managed the front line.

The frontline troops were transferred at every turn. Or adjust affiliations.

Many commanders and commanders suddenly discovered that a certain unit did not follow their orders at all.

Just ask. In the end, it was discovered that Chiang Kai-shek personally directed it. Didn't say hello in advance at all.

Cross-level commanding was the norm for Chiang Kai-shek.

If he overstepped his control and transferred the 10th Artillery Regiment, Peng Mengji would definitely have to listen to him.

Zhang Yong will never allow such a thing to happen.

"Shaolong..."

"To the garrison headquarters."

"good."

The convoy sets off.

Go to the garrison headquarters.

Arrive at Qingliang Mountain.

The garrison headquarters is here.

They are all very low hills. There are air raid shelters below.

Security is tight.

The atmosphere was desolate.

The convoy filed in.

Zhang Yong's face tightened.

The sound of gunfire from the south can be clearly heard.

To the south is the Presidential Palace. It’s Gwanghwamun. The Japanese invaders have occupied Guanghua Gate.

Fortunately, there are not a large number of red dots within the radar map display range. It means that the Japanese invaders' vanguard has not yet entered the city.

There are not a large number of blue dots within the radar display range. It means that neither the 66th Army nor the 100th Army is within the scope.

"Commander Qian, which troops are stationed in the Guanghuamen area?"

"Wang Jingjiu's 71st Army."

"How many troops are there currently?"

"Not sure."

Commander Qian could not answer.

The situation is chaotic. Nor could he have accurate information.

The casualties of each unit were high. The shortage of staff is very serious. Even Wang Jingjiu himself may not have accurate data.

Zhang Yong then stopped talking.

There is no other way. You can only rely on yourself (the system).

parking.

get off.

Many people came up to greet him.

There are familiar ones. Some are unfamiliar. Most are unfamiliar.

A familiar person is Luo Zhuoying, deputy commander of the garrison. I had dealt with him on the Songhu battlefield before.

The other two deputy commanders-in-chief Liu Xing and Xiao Shanling, as well as the chief of staff of the garrison headquarters Zhou Lan, were unknown to them. Never met before.

"Commissioner Zhang."

"Commissioner Zhang."

Say hello politely.

Unable to hide the awkwardness. There is also a hint of stiffness.

There is no way, Zhang Yong's age is too young. Only in his early twenties!

Who among the others present is not an old military leader? Luo Zhuoying is the youngest, already over forty years old.

At Zhang Yong's age, they were still studying at Baoding Military Academy!

"Hello everyone."

Zhang Yong is not stage frightened.

Already trained. Just get used to it.

Although I am facing all the big guys. But you can't fight.

"Commissioner, please."

Chief of Staff Zhou Lan gave enthusiastic guidance.

Zhang Yong waved his hand. Said there was no need to rush. You have something to say.

Immediately, he said calmly: "Do you want to leave Jinling? If so, tell me in private."

After a pause, Zhang Yong said slowly: "I will use a written order to dispatch you to Yangzhou and other places to be responsible for raising food. You can leave Jinling in a legitimate manner. Leave this ghost place."

Finished.

Quiet.

silence.

No one spoke.

No one even looked at each other.

Everyone is thinking independently.

Or maybe he's waiting for other people's reactions.

Zhang Yong smiled slightly.

"Don't you understand what I mean? Then let me speak more clearly."

"If you want to leave, I'll let you go. You don't have to be mentally burdened. You are going outside to perform official duties. I have my written order to prove it."

"Those who don't want to leave. Those who stay. Don't go against me. Don't make trouble with me."

"I, Zhang Yong, do not have a formal military position. I am the inspector general. To put it bluntly, I am responsible for killing people. If I kill the Japanese invaders, I will also kill my own people."

"If anyone makes trouble under my nose, you have to ask yourself if your head is strong enough."

"Don't think I'm afraid. I don't dare to attack you. The Japanese are so powerful. They want to kill me, but they can't!"

Finished.

Quiet.

silence.

Luo Zhuoying took a step forward.

Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows, "Sir Luo, are you leaving Jinling?"

"Commissioner Zhang, I won't leave." Luo Zhuoying said slowly, "But I'm very worried about the current situation, and I'm afraid there's nothing I can do to save it!"

"Yes. Commissioner Zhang." Chief of Staff Zhou Lan also took a step forward, speaking in a cryptic tone, "Now the Japanese invaders are closing in on all fronts, and the defense line is in danger..."

"Come in!"

"good."

A group of people entered the headquarters.

The war room is huge. Very big. Can accommodate hundreds of people.

Large combat maps are hung on the four walls. There are various color markings on it.

There are also flags of various colors and shapes. Densely packed. Chaos. A dozen staff officers were busy around the map.

Very busy.

But it's no use.

Much of the information above is wrong.

The headquarters simply could not grasp the real situation on the front line. Naturally, it is impossible to make a correct judgment.

Look back.

Too lazy to look.

"Chief of Staff Zhou!"

"arrive!"

"The first thing I want to do when I come to the headquarters is to recover the Purple Mountain."

"ah?"

As soon as this statement came out. The whole place was quiet.

Even Commander Qian was surprised.

Recover the Purple Mountain?

this…

It’s a bit difficult!

If the Japanese invaders capture Purple Mountain, they will definitely hold on to it completely.

They also know that the defenders may fight back desperately to take it back. Therefore, we will definitely seize the time and deploy as hard as we can.

The current Purple Mountain may already be impregnable. It's very difficult to break through.

Besides, the Japanese artillery fire...

Quiet.

silence.

"Chief of Staff Zhou..."

"Commissioner, tell me."

"The battle may last 48 hours. The battle will end before dawn the day after tomorrow."

"this…"

Zhou Lan was about to speak but stopped.

The others looked at each other. They all looked solemn.

Although no one spoke. However, they all feel that this matter is very difficult to handle. Not even possible.

Zhang Yong is a bit whimsical.

"I need to use the entire 67th Army. And Qiu Qingquan's 152nd Division."

"Commissioner, after the 67th Army withdrew from Zijin Mountain, there were only about 13,000 people. The 152nd Division only had about 5,000 people..."

"Eighteen thousand men. That's enough. In fact, only three thousand men are needed to participate in the attack. The rest are used to block enemy reinforcements."

"Commissioner Zhang..."

"I will personally lead the attack."

"ah?"

Everyone present was in confusion again.

Zhang Yong still wants to personally lead the attack? Crazy? He will die at any time!

"Shaolong!" Commander Qian was also worried.

"If we can't recover Purple Mountain, my coming to Jinling will be meaningless." Zhang Yong's words were concise and to the point.

"Then there's no need for you to lead the team yourself!"

"No one knows offense better than me. No one else can do it. Only if I do it myself can I succeed."

Commander Qian:…

Others:…

Zhou Lan gritted his teeth and asked slowly: "Commissioner, if you unfortunately die in battle..."

"Then pretend that I have never been here!" Zhang Yong said lightly, "The crisis in Jinling is irreversible. You should command the troops to retreat across the river immediately!"

"Commissioner, I'll go with you..." Luo Zhuoying said slowly.

"Your defense area is not in the Purple Mountain. Next time!" Zhang Yong replied calmly, "If the Purple Mountain is successfully recovered, there will be a lot of work ahead."

"I understand." Luo Zhuoying stopped talking.

Others were also silent.

Nothing sensational.

Crisis indeed.

If the Purple Mountain cannot be recaptured, it is a dead end.

Only by recovering the Purple Mountain can there be a glimmer of hope.

The problem is...

Zhang Yong personally led the team...

It is really possible to die heroically at any time...

"Chief of Staff Zhou."

"arrive!"

"Establish telephone contact with the 10th Artillery Regiment immediately."

"Tenth Artillery Regiment?"

"Yes. I detained them. Stay in Aurous Hill and continue fighting."

"But the shells have been used up..."

"I brought artillery shells from Jiangyin Fortress. I will continue to replenish them in the future. Future large-scale battles will be supported by the 10th Artillery Regiment."

"That would be great. That would be great. That would be great."

Zhou Lan was overjoyed. Of course he understands the value of howitzers.

Or a large-caliber 150mm howitzer. Top-notch destruction capabilities.

Previously, the defenses on Purple Mountain were destroyed by repeated bombings by the Japanese invaders' 150mm howitzers.

Now, the 10th Artillery Regiment is back in the battle, and of course it can destroy the Japanese invaders' fortifications.

"Now, help me get through to the 67th Army headquarters."

"OK."

Zhou Lan hurriedly went to make arrangements.

Soon, the call was connected.

"Commander Wu. I am Zhang Yong. I am back in Jinling."

"Ah, Commissioner..."

Wu Keren suddenly wanted to cry. Totally out of control.

Zhang Yong finally came back.

Back...

"I will personally lead the team tonight to recapture the Purple Mountain."

"Commissioner..."

"The Purple Mountain lost by your 67th Army, I will take you back!"

"yes…"

"that's all."

"yes."

Wu Keren agreed.

My whole body was numb.

Take back the Purple Mountain…

Zhang Yong personally led the team...

Now that the Commissioner has personally gone into battle, who among the 67th Army has the dignity to back down?

Nothing said. Go for it.

Even the cook picked up his gun and got ready to fight!

Or, the Purple Mountain is recovered!

Or, the 67th Army is all dead!

…

silence.

Quiet.

The atmosphere at the garrison headquarters was solemn.

The staff all knew that the Commissioner was about to go into battle in person. This shows how critical the situation is.

"Report!"

A staff officer pushed open the door and came in.

His face looked a little excited. But he suppressed it carefully.

"Say it." Zhang Yong nodded.

"The 67th Division reported that they combined with the 81st and 83rd Divisions to eliminate an infantry regiment of Japanese invaders and captured thirteen Japanese invaders alive!" the staff officer's tone became higher and higher.

Obviously, I suppressed it at the beginning, but then I couldn’t suppress it anymore.

After all, this is news of victory.

Destroy an infantry regiment of Japanese invaders. Thirteen Japanese invaders were captured alive!

"Very good." Zhang Yong nodded.

"Is the good news accurate?" Chief of Staff Zhou Lan was dubious.

The staff officer hesitated to speak.

He could not guarantee the authenticity of the good news.

After all, there was only the report of the 67th Division. There may be moisture.

"Report!"

Another staff officer arrived.

His face also showed uncontrollable excitement.

Zhang Yong nodded.

"explain."

"Report! The 81st Division reported that they combined with the 67th Division and the 83rd Division to destroy an infantry regiment of the Japanese invaders and captured alive the captain of the Japanese aggressors' colonel..."

"real?"

Zhang Yong was a little unbelievable.

Captured alive?

Captain of the Japanese aggressor alliance?

Who is so fierce?

Huang Wei? Li Mo'an? Chen Mu Nong and the three of them? Is it so beautiful?

"Capture the Japanese commander alive?"

"How is that possible?"

"Is this true?"

Others also looked at each other.

Then quickly fell silent.

It must be true.

All of you here are veterans.

If you want to fabricate a good news, you will never report being captured alive.

Because prisoners captured alive must be presented. It's easy to expose. No one would do such a stupid thing.

Especially capturing a Japanese aggressor alive, a captain of the Dazuo Alliance. It’s a huge achievement.

You must see me in person! To confirm identity. No one dares to lie.

In fact, it is impossible to fake it.

"It was said that a female soldier named Li Yunyan captured him. She is the commissioner's personal guard."

"ah?"

"ah?"

"ah?"

All eyes were focused on Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yong also looked at himself in disbelief. You actually ate it on your own head?

no. It's actually Li Yunyan? Is that correct?

Are the female guerrilla captains of the Red Army so powerful?

So scared...

Worried about domestic violence from her in the future...

"Chief of Staff Zhou!"

"arrive!"

"Delete Li Yunyan's name from all battle reports."

"But…"

"Let's just say it is the collective contribution of the three divisions. The good news will be reported directly to the committee."

"this…"

"That's my little wife. We can't make it known to the whole world. Do you understand?"

"Yes, yes."

Zhou Lan understood immediately.

Forgot. This Commissioner is also the son-in-law of the Song family.

The entrusted seat is the son-in-law of Chenglong Kuai of the Song family. So is the Lord Commissioner. But the Commissioner is more powerful than the Commissioner. How dare you raise a little wife outside!

Convinced!

real!

No one else has the courage.

I don’t even dare to make appointments.

"Don't spread rumors." Commander Qian said slowly.

"No. No. No." Everyone said immediately. All men. Naturally understand.

Of all of you here, there aren’t many who are raising children outside.

We must cover each other for this kind of thing.

Suddenly I felt that the Commissioner is really approachable!

We can get closer in the future...

pity…

He wanted to personally lead the team to attack Purple Mountain.

It’s really…

Ten deaths and no life!

well…

"Chief of Staff Zhou!"

"arrive!"

"I will keep in touch with you at all times."

"clear."

"I'm going to the 67th Army Headquarters now."

"good."

"Commander Qian, you are tired after a long journey, so please rest at the garrison headquarters!"

"good."

Commander Qian said he understood.

Zhang Yong is worried. Ask him to take charge.

After all, this is the first time we cooperate. They certainly cannot completely trust each other.

"Shaolong, do you want to report to the committee?"

"Wait for my good news."

"good."

"I'm leaving."

"good."

Zhang Yong led people to set off.

Come to the 67th Army Headquarters. Just at the northern foot of Purple Mountain.

Although the main peak is lost. However, at the foothills, the 67th Army still held on tenaciously.

"boom…"

"boom…"

There were constant explosions.

This is the 75mm mountain gun of the Japanese invaders. There is a messy bombing going on.

As the most important support point of Jinling's defense, after the Japanese invaders occupied Zijin Mountain, they had a clear view of it.

The artillery observation post set up on the top of the mountain can easily indicate the target for the Japanese artillery. This posed a great threat to the defending national army.

"Commissioner!"

"Commissioner!"

Everyone came up to greet him.

Zhang Yong nodded. Wave. Get into the trenches.

There are no bomb shelters. Just trenches. The top of the trench was piled with logs and thick soil.

Can protect against 105mm heavy cannon bombing. Even if it hits directly, most of the damage can be resolved.

However, if it is a 150mm howitzer, it will be suspended. May be served in one pot.

"Deploy three thousand people as a commando team." Zhang Yong said straightforwardly, "I will personally lead the team tonight to recapture the main peak."

"Commissioner, it's too dangerous." Wu Keren said worriedly.

"Execute the order!"

"yes!"

"Get me the 152nd Division. I'm looking for Qiu Qingquan."

"good."

Soon, the call was connected.

Zhang Yong picked up the microphone. The sound is the same as an explosion.

"Crazy Qiu? You immediately bring a death squad of 500 people to the 67th Army headquarters!"

"Tonight, I will personally lead the team to recover the Purple Mountain!"

"You come up with me too!"

Put down the mic.

Crazy Qiu. Hope you really are crazy.

In tonight's battle, except for the lunatic, there are really not many people who dare to participate.

Three thousand people participated in the attack. Zhang Yong did not know how many people would survive in the end.

I don’t know if I can survive.

but…

No regrets at all.

That's what a fire captain does.

If you take a million dollars from someone else, you have to give it up. Who told me to be blinded by money?

well…

Assemble the team.

Organize your equipment.

The radar map shows that there are many red dots on Purple Mountain.

There are more than a thousand people near the main peak alone. It should be a full infantry brigade.

There are also multiple radio station logos. Do you think it's the wing?

The Japanese invaders are really arrogant! Deploy so many troops. Do you really think that the artillery fire of the national army is just a display?

Oh, the Japanese invaders probably judged that the Chinese army had no heavy artillery.

Okay, ten artillery regiments.

It's up to you.

Start the meal.

Prepare.

Radar maps showed a large number of armed white dots approaching. About five hundred people.

"Commissioner!"

"Coming?"

"I brought all the five hundred suicide squads!"

"Okay! Eat!"

"yes!"

Qiu Qingquan said nothing and buried his head in eating.

Since Zhang Yong was leading the team himself, he had nothing to say.

Have a hearty meal. Prepare to be a dead man.

Take a short break.

The sun sets in the west.

A staff officer came running.

"Report, the 10th Artillery Regiment has arrived at the designated position and deployed."

"Get them on the phone!"

"yes!"

The call was answered quickly.

Zhang Yong's voice was loud and clear.

"Peng Mengji?"

"Reporting to the Commissioner, the 10th Artillery Regiment is ready for battle!"

"Very good! I order you now to fire at Purple Mountain immediately! Use up all the cannonballs!"

"Mr. Commissioner..."

"Do you need me to repeat that?"

"No need. The 10th Artillery Regiment will fire at Purple Mountain immediately! Use up all the shells!"

"The additional shells will be sent to Zhongshan Pier. Arrange people to carry them at the terminal."

"yes!"

"that's all!"

Zhang Yong hung up the phone.

Get out of the trenches and raise your binoculars.

Start burning…

Purple Mountain!
