After hearing Ma Xiaoguang's order, Fatty quit on the spot!
"No! I want to go to Baoshan too!"
The fat man shouted.
"This is a military order. I told you that you must cross the front within two hours and report the location of the Neon Army's artillery positions."
Ma Xiaoguang's tone was colder and harder than ever before.
Seeing Ma Xiaoguang's cold eyes, the fat man opened his mouth and did not dare to speak any more.
Gao Chao looked at Old Li and was stopped from speaking by Old Li's dagger-like gaze.
"Let's go now!"
Ma Xiaoguang ordered to the two of them.
The fat man took a deep look at Ma Xiaoguang, gritted his teeth, put his bag on his back, pulled Gao Chao and ran away quickly...
A few minutes later.
"Let's go, we have to hurry to Baoshan, there is a radio station there."
Ma Xiaoguang withdrew his gaze and turned to Lao Li.
Lao Li and the other two special forces members didn't say anything. They just nodded and followed Ma Xiaoguang in the direction of Baoshan.
When the four of them arrived at Baoshan, it was almost dusk in the afternoon of August 30th.
Stationed in Baoshan County is the 3rd Battalion, 292nd Brigade, 583rd Regiment, 98th Division, 15th Group Army of the National Army - this is a designation that should be remembered forever!
Ma Xiaoguang and his party were discovered by a group of soldiers in the outer position.
Because of his neon military uniform, he was being escorted into the county seat.
Leading the escort were Army Sergeant Li Weimin and Private First Class Tian Sanhe.
Baoshan City Wall is low and made of adobe from the Ming and Qing Dynasties. There is no danger to defend the surrounding area. No matter how you look at it, it is a "dead ground" as military strategists call it.
However, Ma Xiaoguang saw that the national army brothers stationed here were busy reinforcing the fortifications and preparing ammunition...
There was an eerie calm all around.
The town is not big. After walking for more than 20 minutes, the four of them were taken to the camp headquarters.
"I am Yao Ziqing, commander of the 3rd Battalion of the 583rd Regiment of the 98th Division. The 6th Division has suffered heavy casualties. We are now taking over Baoshan."
The person in front of the four of them was a lieutenant colonel in his thirties with a calm face.
Battalion Commander Yao has a thin face and a pair of glasses on the bridge of his nose. He looks more like a teacher than a national army officer.
"Ma Xiaoguang, Special Operations Group of the Military Intelligence Division."
Ma Xiaoguang saluted and reported his family background.
"Military Intelligence? What are you doing here?"
Yao Ziqing asked with a frown.
Ma Xiaoguang said: "Commander Yao, there is an important matter now. We need to use your radio... I want to contact the 98th Division and report important military information!"
Hearing this, Yao Ziqing stared at Ma Xiaoguang and frowned.
"Battal Commander, these guys are coming here so strangely..."
Li Weimin took a step forward and reported to Battalion Commander Yao.
Yao Ziqing's brows had already relaxed at this time, and he said calmly to Li Weimin: "It's okay, they are our own people, Baoshan is already a dead place, and the Japanese will not come in... let alone the spies."
Li Weimin was slightly startled when he heard this, then understood immediately and left the camp with Tian Sanhe.
Without any further delay, the dispatchers quickly contacted the 98th Division through the radio...
"Okay, everyone, your information has been sent out, so evacuate as soon as possible!"
Yao Ziqing still said to Ma Xiaoguang and the other four people with an indifferent expression.
"Battle Commander Yao, you also said that this is a death place. Do you think we can escape in the current situation?"
Ma Xiaoguang handed over a Hardman and said with a smile.
Yao Ziqing took over Hademen, but did not click.
He looked at Ma Xiaoguang, his eyes dark and unclear.
A few moments.
Yao Ziqing did not stop struggling with Ma Xiaoguang. He pondered for a moment and said: "Baoshan is a place where soldiers die. We can only fight to the death but not defend. Since you are determined to kill the enemy, I will not stop you."
"Wei Jiancheng, take the four brothers down and change their clothes. Now that your mission has been completed, stop wearing the skin of a Japanese..."
The messenger named Wei Jiancheng left the camp with four people and found four sets of soldier uniforms for them to put on.
"Sir, it's almost time for Fatty and the others to arrive at our position, right?"
After the task was completed and he relaxed a little, Lao Li couldn't help but ask Ma Xiaoguang.
"You can't put your eggs in one basket. Baoshan is the army closest to us and has a radio station, so we can only divide our troops into two groups. Don't blame me, brothers."
Ma Xiaoguang lit the Hard Gate, took a deep breath and asked everyone.
"As Chinese soldiers, it is our duty to defend the country!"
Zhao Qingze took the lead and spoke sternly to Ma Xiaoguang.
Ma Xiaoguang nodded, said nothing, took out cigarettes, and handed one to each of them.
When it was getting dark, a heavy explosion suddenly sounded from the northwest of Baoshan.
In a moment.
The sharp roar of the shells passed over everyone's heads.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh..."
"Choo Choo Choo……"
Immediately afterwards, there was a thunderous roar from the southeast!
"Boom boom boom"
Accompanied by the roar were flames and mushroom clouds rising into the sky.
"Sir, our artillery regiment has opened fire!"
Fu Mingyi shouted to Ma Xiaoguang and Lao Li excitedly.
"This is just the beginning."
Lao Li looked at the smoke and fire in the distance and said viciously.
The scene in the distance now is the most beautiful scene for Ma Xiaoguang and his brothers.
The one after another explosion is the best sound.
The four of them smoked cigarettes and rested against the gable of a house.
…
When I woke up, it was already the early morning of August 31st.
There was a buzzing sound in the sky that made people's hair stand on end.
"Be careful, it's a Japanese plane!"
Lao Li shouted to everyone.
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the screams of bombs in the air...
"boom--"
"boom--"
A huge explosion suddenly echoed around everyone.
Dust and smoke soon obscured everyone's view.
Bricks, rubble, and bomb fragments flew everywhere, and the small town of Baoshan suddenly turned into a purgatory of iron and fire!
Baoshan is not big, and the Neon Air Force is not just targeting this area for bombing.
Therefore, the bombing did not last too long, but after the locust-like aircraft flew over, they were covered by the firepower of the navy's large-caliber naval guns.
Naval guns are extremely powerful, and the power of artillery shells is different from that of aerial bombs.
Those houses and fortifications that usually seemed solid and sturdy were torn to pieces in front of the naval gun shells, and were blown away in all directions...
The bombardment continued until noon.
Taking advantage of the short break in the truce, Ma Xiaoguang and the others arrived at the large gap in the county gate.
There is a company of brothers stationed here.
Li Weimin, who escorted Ma Xiaoguang and the others yesterday, is also there.
"Why are you here?"
Li Weimin wiped the dark smoke from his face and asked in confusion.
"Brother, we are also the national army."
Lao Li patted Li Weimin on the shoulder and said to him calmly.
Everyone did not continue to struggle, but squatted down in the fortifications under the city wall.
In the distance, a faint light can be seen, and the rumble of the engine can be heard in the ears. It is the Type 94 light tank of the Neon Army!
Looking out from the observation hole in the bunker, behind the tanks are groups of Japanese infantry pulling skirmishers...
