Long Wenzhang led his troops into the trenches of Jiang's army, braving the rain of bullets.
The courage of the Eight Osmanthus disciples was immediately revealed. They formed a team of four.
Two of them were in charge of killing the enemy, one of them was in charge of covering the rear, and the last one was in charge of killing from the side.
No matter how many enemies there were, the four-man team cooperated closely.
Moreover, these four-man teams would often work together to kill the enemy. In close combat, Hu Zongnan's troops were no match at all.
Seeing that the trenches were about to be occupied, Hu Zongnan anxiously sent troops to reinforce them.
However, he still underestimated the bravery of the wolf soldiers. The soldiers he sent were completely used as fuel, and as many as they went, they were killed.
"Sir, we can't fight like this. Our 1st Division will suffer heavy losses!”"This is the principal's trump card. If you lose it, the principal will…"
Hu Zongnan stomped his foot on the ground in anger. He didn't expect the war to turn out like this.
"Requesting backup. Officer Gu, please send reinforcements immediately!”Hu Zongnan shouted anxiously.
At this moment, Gu Zhutong and Jiang Dingwen could already tell that Hu Zongnan's troops had suffered a great loss.
Although they wouldn't be completely defeated, if this continued, both sides would suffer heavy losses. The 1st Division might very well be crippled.
Coincidentally, the people Hu Zongnan had sent to ask for reinforcements arrived.
"Commander Jiang, these Gui troops are too ferocious. We should join forces and destroy them in one fell swoop!" Gu Zhutong immediately said to Jiang Dingwen.”
Jiang Dingwen nodded." What Officer Gu said makes sense. Then let's attack together and destroy Li Zongren's trump card on the spot!"”
The two of them immediately separated. Gu Zhutong commanded the other two divisions under his command to charge forward quickly to reinforce Hu Zongnan's troops.
However, Jiang Dingwen did not keep his promise. Instead, he ordered his troops to stay put.
" General, if Officer Gu asks later," Division Commander Zhao Guantao whispered.
" Hmph!" Jiang Dingwen snorted coldly." The First Army is used to being arrogant. They don't even put us in their eyes just because they are the Direct Line." The Gui Army is so fierce, why should we help them exhaust their strength? Let them fight, let the Gui Army dampen their spirit!”
At this moment, Gu Zhutong's First Army was already charging toward Long Wenzhang's troops.
Long Wenzhang looked out from the trenches and saw that Jiang's army had fanned out and surrounded him.
As long as they got close, they could immediately surround them. If Long Wenzhang did not have reinforcements, he would never be able to escape.
"The First Army is indeed something!”Long Wenzhang spat and shouted at his subordinates,""Brothers, our mission is complete!”
He came like the wind and left like lightning.
Long Wenzhang personally carried the military flag and led his subordinates to quickly retreat.
Hu Zongnan was stunned. He only reacted after Long Wenzhang's troops had run some distance away.
"Bastard, you killed so many of my people and you want to run?”Hu Zongnan saw the arrival of the reinforcements and immediately felt confident. He shouted,""1st division, pursue immediately. Today, I swear to kill Gui Jun!"
Hu Zongnan led his troops and rushed out. Gu Zhutong saw this scene from behind and thought that Hu Zongnan had successfully counterattacked.
He immediately ordered his troops to continue moving forward and destroy the Gui Army. He took advantage of the situation to attack Guang Xi and did not give Li Zongren any chance.
When Jiang Dingwen, who was watching from the sidelines, saw this scene, he anxiously threw the binoculars to his subordinates."Don't just stand there. All the troops will immediately pursue. Destroying the Gui Army was a great achievement, and the First Army was already impressive enough. They must not let them take all the credit.”
"Everyone, attack! Kill the Gui Army with me!”
A moment later, the entire Second Army also moved out.
The two elite troops of Jiang's army were completely attracted by Long Wenzhang's brigade.
It was as if bait had hooked a big fish, leading them towards Li Ruoyu's real trap.
Twenty minutes later, Long Wenzhang led his troops into the trap set by the Seventh Steel Army.
Hu Zongnan and the others did not suspect anything and chased after the 2nd Brigade. A large number of Jiang's troops had fallen into the trap set by the Seventh Gang Army.
Li Ruoyu was half-kneeling on the branch of a big tree, coldly watching Jiang's army fall into his trap.
Under the tree, a row of messengers waited nervously.
Everyone held their signal guns tightly. Because they were too nervous, their palms were already covered in sweat.
After more than half an hour, Li Ruoyu, who was motionless, suddenly shouted coldly,"" Send out the signal flare, inform all departments to open fire!"
The messengers finally heaved a sigh of relief. The five of them raised their guns at the same time and pulled the trigger fiercely at the sky.
"Bang bang bang"
Five signal flares exploded in the air at the same time. The advancing soldiers of Jiang raised their heads.
"What happened?" Gu Zhutong watched in shock as the signal flare exploded in the air.
Jiang Dingwen was also frowning."I have a bad feeling. We…It seems like we've fallen into a trap!"
At this moment, artillery shells suddenly whistled across the sky, like meteors from the sky, and ruthlessly smashed toward Jiang's two troops.
Gu Zhutong and Jiang Dingwen shouted almost at the same time,"Not good, it's a trap. Retreat, retreat!”
In the next second, countless artillery shells bombarded the two sides of Jiang Jun's army. The fierce flames mercilessly devoured a large number of soldiers.
