  Zhang Xinghan crouched on the ground, deep in thought for a moment, thinking about how to turn the tide of battle at this time. With just their twenty-man squad, even if they could return to the formation, it would be useless.

  The Western army's attack this time was indeed very sudden. Anyone with a little military knowledge would think that after the first night raid failed, they had already startled the snake in the grass and no one could launch a second night raid again.

  However, the ancient saying goes: "War is a deceitful way, false and true, true and false." Zhang Xinghan did not expect the Western Army to launch another sudden attack at this time. What about the Eastern Army, a group of student soldiers?

  This resulted in a very large offensive suddenness and suddenness, the East Army was originally at a disadvantage in firepower and troops, this way, it is bound to be defeated without a doubt, the loss of Baohua Mountain is only a matter of time.

  If the Eastern Army wants to turn the tide of battle, unless the Western Army voluntarily stops attacking, but how can we make the Western Army voluntarily stop attacking?

  Zhang Xinghan thought of this, and suddenly a light bulb flashed in his mind. He connected it to the few cars he had seen earlier, stood up immediately and said to everyone: "I have a way."

  "Oh, what's going on?" Sun Siwei was the first to stand up and asked anxiously.

  "Yes, what's the solution?" Zhao Desheng also asked anxiously, because at this time their minds were already in a mess, whether to advance or retreat, they had lost their attention.

  "Got it, Old Sun, do you two still remember those three cars from just now?" Zhang Xinghan asked calmly.

  "Uh-huh! Uh-huh!" The two nodded in unison.

  "Think about it, who else in Nanjing can afford a car besides wealthy businessmen?" Zhang Xinghan retorted.

  "Either a wealthy businessman or a high-ranking government official." Sun Siwei continued: "You mean the person sitting in the car is some high-ranking government official?"

  "Yes! It's late at night now, and this is our training area. Those rich merchants won't come here at this time, and even if they want to, they may not be able to get in. So, the person sitting in the car must be a big shot, at least a general-level one. And I guess, it's probably our Education Minister Zhang Zhongjiang!" Zhang Xinghan analyzed.

  "That makes sense! It's late at night now, and we're in the middle of a drill. Normally, government officials wouldn't come here, but the people in that car chose to appear when the Western Army launched another attack. It's highly likely that it's Minister of Education, maybe he came to inspect the drill situation!" Sun Siwei nodded in agreement.

  "Hmm! Think again, if the one in the car is the Minister of Education, where will his special vehicle head to?" Zhang Xinghan nodded and asked immediately.

  "Director of Education will definitely go to the headquarters of the teaching team, that is, the Western Military Command!" Sun Siwei suddenly realized.

  "Right! So, as long as we follow the road that those three cars took, we can find the Western Army's headquarters and launch a surprise attack, wiping out their headquarters in one fell swoop. I heard that this time, the Western Army commander-in-chief, General Gui Yongqing, is the principal's favorite general. If we capture him, not only can we turn the tide of defeat for the Eastern Army into victory, but also make a name for ourselves and be revered throughout the land. From now on, even the Commander-in-Chief will have to lower his head when he sees us!" Zhang Xinghan said, revealing his own plan.

  "What? But the Education Director is also inside, are we going to arrest him too?" Zhao De Sheng was clearly intimidated by Zhang Xing Han's bold and reckless thinking, his face hesitant as he said: "Besides, the Western Army Headquarters must be heavily guarded, with just these dozen or so men charging in, it's not certain we'll succeed."

  "You're stupid! The Western Army has already launched a general attack on our Eastern Army's position, it can be said that they have sent all their elite troops. If even you can think of this, the leaders of the Western Army will not expect that a small squad will suddenly appear in their command center, and there will definitely not be many guards left around them. This is called 'out of expectation'. Moreover, although this is an exercise, we must treat them as hypothetical enemies, that is, the Japanese. If it were the Japanese in front of us, even if we knew it was certain death, we would still have to charge up and destroy their command center! You guys agree or not?" Zhang Xinghan slapped a palm on Zhao Desheng's helmet and scolded loudly.

  "Right!" Sun Siwei nodded and immediately said: "Xing Han is right, let's treat them as Japanese people. Even if we die, we must fight to the end. If we don't attack and hide here until dawn, we will still be defeated. Either way, we are dead, so why not die with dignity?"

  Sun Siwei's words resonated with all the warriors, who nodded in agreement one after another.

  "Good! We'll go and destroy the Western Army's headquarters right now. Even if we fail, we'll die trying! We must treat this as a battlefield and them as our enemies."

  "Yes!" Zhao De Sheng and a crowd of soldiers responded in unison.

  With that, Zhang Xinghan led his own night raid squad with a heroic and never-to-return momentum towards the Western Army Headquarters, charging forward like on the battlefield, rushing towards the enemy.

  ………..

  Outside the Western Army Headquarters, Gui Yongqing and Zhou Zhenqiang stood solemnly outside the commander's tent.

  At this time, the three cars driven by Director Chiang slowed down and stopped. The car door opened, and Wang Shih-chieh, the lieutenant general and chief of the Generalissimo's bodyguards, stepped out first and ran to the other side to open the door for Director Chiang with courtesy.

  Chiang Kai-shek, dressed in military uniform, with a Zhongzheng sword at his waist, strode out of the car door. At the same time, from another car behind, General Zhang Zhizhong, Minister of Education of the Central Military Academy, also stepped down from the vehicle.

  Gu Yongqing and Zhou Zhenqiang rushed forward, stood up straight and saluted: "Delegate!" Then he asked General Zhang Zhongzhong: "General Zhang has also arrived!"

  "Hmm!" Chairman Chiang nodded in satisfaction and explained: "Wen Bai heard that I was coming to inspect the exercise, so he came together. How's this, with guns and cannons roaring on the mountain, how's the progress of the exercise?"

  "Reporting to the commander, the exercise is going smoothly. Currently, our Western Army has launched a night attack on the Eastern Army's main force on the mountain. Before dawn, we should be able to achieve victory!" replied Gui Yongqing humbly.

  He immediately busied himself and respectfully said: "Your Excellency, Brother Wen Bai, this is not a place for conversation, please enter the command center!"

  Chiang Kai-shek walked ahead in big strides, turning his head to address Gui Yongqing: "Yongqing, the Eastern Army lacks actual combat experience. As their seniors and instructors, you should train them well, cultivate them, and let them contribute to the party and the country in the future, and take on the responsibility of reviving China!"

  "Yes! I humbly remember your teachings, sir!" Gu Yongqing hastily stood up straight and replied.

  After entering the command center, several of Chiang's personal bodyguards also followed him in. These men were among the best in the country, skilled in both marksmanship and martial arts. They were absolutely loyal to Chiang, serving as his personal attendants and bodyguards at all times, except when he was sleeping or traveling, they never strayed more than three meters away from him.

  Entering the command center, Chairman Chiang looked at the simulated sand table and battle maps inside, smiled and turned to General Zhang Zhizhong beside him: "Wen Bai, this batch of students is not bad, they can hold out with the teaching team for three days and three nights, compared to the previous session it's an improvement! It seems that you're doing a good job as the head of education!" Chairman Chiang spoke with a strong Jiangsu-Zhejiang accent.

  However, General Zhang Zhizhong was able to understand and hastily humbly said: "This is all due to the good leadership of Director Chiang, the students are guided by the director's spirit, carrying forward the Whampoa spirit, and will serve the party and state, and repay Director Chiang in the future!"

  "Good! Good! These students have performed quite well." Chairman Chiang was overjoyed upon hearing this, nodding his head repeatedly in praise.

  Just then, Zhang Xinghan led his night raid squad and followed the tire tracks of Chiang Kai-shek's car.

  As Zhang Xinghan had anticipated, the guard here was not very strict, possibly because the people of the Instruction Corps had never thought that a small detachment of the Eastern Army would suddenly appear under their noses.

  So when they followed Chiang Kai-shek's car to the Western Military Command Headquarters, warplanes suddenly appeared.

  An opportunity once lost will never come again. Zhang Xinghan did not hesitate at all, and with a wave of his hand, he led twenty soldiers to climb up.

  Quietly taking care of the two sentries at the entrance, knocking them unconscious, Zhang Xinghan led Sun Siwei, Zhao Desheng and several other soldiers with guns into the Western Army Commander's large tent.
