"right."

Li Yunlong nodded.

"I've been there; the terrain is even better than Black Wind Pass."

"The hillsides on both sides are covered with shrubs and weeds, enough to hide hundreds of people without any problem."

"Moreover, both the mouth and the end of the gully are bends."

"Once the Japanese soldiers entered the ditch, they were blocked at both ends and couldn't escape."

Zhou Tianyang's gaze lingered on the map for a long time.

Then, he turned around and looked at Li Yunlong.

"Old Li, how long does it take you to get from Shinian Village to Duanhun Ravine?"

"If we're marching at full speed, it will take three hours."

Li Yunlong thought for a moment and gave a rough estimate.

"It's about twenty li from Liujiabao to Duanhunjian."

"If the Japanese soldiers take the highway and go fast, they can get there in a little over an hour."

Zhou Tianyang went through the timeline in his mind.

If the Japanese set off early tomorrow morning, they should arrive at Duanhunjian between approximately 9 and 10 a.m.

They have to leave no later than six in the morning.

There is enough time.

"Old Li, how many people can you send?"

Zhou Tianyang asked a very practical question.

"Two hundred people."

Li Yunlong answered without hesitation.

"Two companies, fully armed, with both light and heavy machine guns, and plenty of ammunition."

Zhou Tianyang nodded.

"I'll send three hundred men."

"Three hundred people plus two hundred people, a total of five hundred people."

"We have a significant numerical advantage in fighting a reinforced Japanese company."

"But there's a problem."

Li Yunlong's expression turned serious.

"What's the problem?"

"The Japanese firepower."

Li Yunlong tapped his fingers lightly on the table.

"A reinforced company has at least twelve or thirteen light machine guns, three or four heavy machine guns, and a dozen or so grenade launchers."

"Their firepower is significantly stronger than ours."

"Although we outnumber each other, we don't have the advantage."

"If a war breaks out, we can't fight the Japanese head-on; we'll have to rely on tactics."

Zhou Tianyang nodded.

"you're right."

"Therefore, the choice of ambush site is crucial."

He stood up, walked to the front of the map, and his gaze fell on the location of the Soul-Severing Ravine.

"The terrain of Broken Soul Ravine is characterized by steep slopes and dense shrubs on both sides, making it suitable for ambushes."

"We'll deploy our main forces on both sides of the hillside to create crossfire."

"The first round of firing must destroy the Japanese command system and heavy firepower."

Li Yunlong took over the conversation.

"Yes, the same old method."

"First take out the machine gunners and grenade launcher operators, then the Japanese officers, and finally the ordinary soldiers."

He paused, looking at Zhou Tianyang.

"Zhou Xiaogui, your sniper rifle will have to come in handy again this time."

Zhou Tianyang nodded without saying anything.

The two stood in front of the map in silence for a long time.

Then, Zhou Tianyang turned around and looked at Li Yunlong.

"Old Li, let's fight this battle together."

"The captured supplies will still be divided in half."

"Is there a problem?"

"no problem."

Li Yunlong answered decisively.

"Same as always, half for each of us, no one should take advantage of the other."

Zhou Tianyang nodded and extended his hand.

"Then it's settled."

Li Yunlong grasped his hand and shook it vigorously.

"It's settled."

The two released each other, and Li Yunlong turned and walked towards the door.

"Zhou kid, I'm going back to Shinian Village to prepare."

"See you at Broken Soul Valley tomorrow morning."

"Hey, don't be late, people over there."

Zhou Tianyang saw him to the door.

"Don't worry, it won't be a mistake."

Li Yunlong strode out of the courtyard, with his bodyguard jogging behind him.

The two figures quickly disappeared on the dirt road at the entrance of the village.

Zhou Tianyang stood at the gate of the courtyard.

I watched the direction they went.

There was silence for a moment.

Then, he turned around and strode back to the regimental headquarters.

Zhou Tianyang sat back down at the table.

His mind was still replaying the ambush plan he had just discussed with Li Yunlong.

The terrain of Broken Soul Gorge is even better than that of Black Wind Pass.

The plan is fine.

But Zhou Tianyang also knew the answer in his heart.

On the battlefield, no one can predict what will happen.

Even the most perfect plan can go awry on the battlefield.

Therefore, he must be fully prepared.

Zhou Tianyang then turned his gaze to the system space.

Of the 200 M2 armor-piercing rounds I redeemed earlier, 152 were used in two battles.

There are only 48 rounds left.

48 bullets, that sounds like a lot.

But in a real fight, they wouldn't be enough.

This time, the Japanese were a reinforced company, with more than 300 men.

48 bullets are far from enough.

"System, open the points mall."

The points mall is now open.

Current points: 50.

Zhou Tianyang looked at the number and gave a wry smile.

Fifty points.

He was a millionaire just a few days ago.

With over 1,600 points in my pocket, I can spend them without a second thought.

Now there are only fifty left.

"They really don't last long."

Zhou Tianyang sighed inwardly.

But there's no way around it, we still have to spend the money we need to spend.

Soldiers' physical strength is their capital for fighting, and their skills are their capital for killing the enemy.

These investments are worth every penny.

Moreover, a major war is about to break out.

If we win this battle, the points will come pouring in.

The reinforced company of over three hundred men included many Japanese officers.

After winning this battle, I should be able to gain at least one or two thousand points.

Thinking about this made Zhou Tianyang feel a little better.

His eyes scanned the store and found the ammunition section.

[7.62mm M2 armor-piercing round: 1 point = 10 rounds.]

"System, exchange for 200 rounds of 7.62mm M2 armor-piercing ammunition."

[Confirmed redemption of 200 rounds of 7.62mm M2 armor-piercing ammunition, consuming 20 points.]

[Confirm?]

"confirm."

[Redeem successful.]

[200 rounds of 7.62mm M2 armor-piercing ammunition have been delivered to the system storage.]

Zhou Tianyang glanced at his points balance.

Current points: 30.

Thirty points.

Keep it for when you need it urgently.

In case you need to exchange for something on the battlefield, you still have some savings.

He then opened his attribute panel.

Zhou Tianyang closed the attribute panel and his gaze fell on the hand-drawn terrain map on the table.

If the new Second Regiment departs from Lijia Yu.

It takes two and a half hours of forced marching to reach the Soul-Severing Gorge.

"Someone come here."

A guard ran in from outside the courtyard and stood at attention.

"Commander!"

"Go and summon Zhao Wenlong and the three company commanders of the First Battalion."

"yes!"

The guard turned and ran out.

Zhou Tianyang picked up a pencil and began marking the ambush position at the location of Broken Soul Ravine.

The location of the new regiment on the south slope is marked with a circle.

The location of the North Slope, the new Second Regiment, is marked with a circle.

At the eastern end of the ditch, send half a company to block the way.

At the western end of the ditch, send another half-company to block the way.

Ambush positions, firing points, command posts, retreat routes...

Each item should be clearly labeled.

A dozen minutes later.

Hurried footsteps could be heard outside the courtyard.

Zhao Wenlong was the first to walk in, his forehead still damp with sweat, clearly having just run back from the training field.

"Commander, you wanted to see me?"

Zhou Tianyang nodded and pointed to the chair.

"sit."

Zhao Wenlong sat down, his gaze falling on the map on the table.

Seeing the dense markings above made my heart skip a beat.

Another war is about to break out.

Immediately afterwards, the three company commanders, Tian Chengjun, Gu Tianhua, and Liu Zhiyong, walked in one after the other.

"Commander!"

The three stood at attention.

"Please sit down."

Zhou Tianyang pointed to the chair.

The four of them sat down, and all their eyes fell on him.

Zhou Tianyang didn't rush to speak.

He picked up his teacup, took a sip of water, then looked up, his gaze sweeping across the four people's faces.

"I called you here because I have a task for you."

His voice wasn't loud, but every word was clear.

"This morning, Commander Li of the New First Regiment came by."

"He brought some intelligence."

Zhou Tianyang tapped the map with his finger.

"A reinforced Japanese company arrived at the Liujiabao stronghold this morning."

"More than 300 people were escorting supplies in ten trucks."
