"In a short period of time, the devil's reinforcements have not yet reached us, and the 14th regiment of our division occupied Shiyuan Mountain, where it blocked the reinforcements of the 4th brigade mixed with the devil's independent regiment." At the temporary headquarters of the Independent Regiment, Li Yunlong looked solemn.

In order to be able to destroy the Devil's railway, station and surrounding road traffic as soon as possible, the two battalions of the Independent Regiment have been put into such work, plus the county brigade and district squad militia who came to assist, as well as the organized masses, there are thousands of people in this area who are busy dismantling the Devil's railway.

It's just that even if so many people do this, the speed of destroying the devil's railway is still not fast enough, Li Yunlong's eyes are constantly scanning the map, trying to find other suitable targets for attacking. In the end, Li Yunlong chose to give up, because it was surrounded by friendly troops, and it was undoubtedly impossible for the devil's stronghold to continue to hold on to so many Eighth Route Army troops.

In the artillery company, Liu Gen led the soldiers of the artillery company to conduct regular training, and each soldier was quite serious in training. This was especially true of the soldiers of the artillery companies assigned to the companies last night, and they all understood why they were able to control the mortars and take out the devil's stronghold as quickly as possible.

In order to ensure that the soldiers of the artillery company have enough physical strength to devote themselves to the battle at any time, Liu Gen's training of the soldiers has been reduced a lot. The soldiers of the artillery company were quite unaccustomed to such a small intensity, and if Liu Gen had not forcibly ordered them to do so, they would have taken the initiative to increase the intensity of training.

A day passed, and all the strongholds of the surrounding devils were controlled by the units of the 129th Division, and the western section of the devil's Zhengtai Road was paralyzed. In the face of the sudden attack of the Eighth Route Army, the devils in North China were defenseless, which made the devils in all parts mobilized and attacked along the Zhengtai Road.

On August 26, the Independent Regiment received an order from the division headquarters to take the initiative to attack the Japanese troops who had come to support the Zhengtai Railway. When the order was given, Li Yunlong couldn't see too much excitement on his face, knowing that the reinforcements of the various troops of the devil were about to arrive, Li Yunlong could imagine how many battles the independent regiment would have to face next.

Judging from the information obtained by the division headquarters, the troops that the devils came to reinforce along Zhengtai Road include 4 infantry battalions of the 4th Brigade of the Japanese Army, and 3 infantry battalions of the 9th Brigade of the Independent Mixed Brigade. The furious North China Front Command is constantly sending devils from all parts to come, and this time the Eighth Route Army's actions have caused too many losses to the Japanese army, which is unacceptable to the North China Front Army.

At the same time, the 36th, 37th, and 41st divisions of the Japanese army in the south of Shanxi were also preparing to go north to support the battle of the devils on Zhengtai Road.

"The devil that our regiment needs to face next should be the 9th Brigade of the Japanese Army from the direction of Yuci, and the devil who came to support has three infantry battalions, needless to say, the combat effectiveness is not strong. It was only the infantry battalion that came, and our separate regiment might be able to eat him. Zhao Gang spoke.

Li Yunlong nodded, he knew that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army's independent mixed brigade was naturally much worse than that of the elite Japanese army, these were the garrison troops of the Japanese army, and the equipment equipped with them could not be compared with the elite troops. Moreover, the quality of the devils of the independent mixed brigade of the Japanese army is uneven, and the combat effectiveness is not strong.

Of course, even if he knew that the combat effectiveness of the devil's independent mixed brigade was not strong, Li Yunlong did not dare to take it lightly, and he could not take it lightly in the face of the devil.

"Roots, how's it going? Will your artillery battery be able to take out the devil artillery in the shortest possible time? Li Yunlong looked at Liu Gen and asked.

Liu Gen nodded vigorously and said affirmatively: "Commander, don't worry, the artillery company will go all out to kill the devil artillery in the shortest possible time!" ”

If you want to kill the devils and form an infantry battalion of the 9th Brigade independently, the artillery company needs to play a strong enough role in it, and Li Yunlong doesn't want to kill an infantry battalion of the devils and fold his independent regiment here. As for the three infantry battalions that killed the devils at the same time, Li Yunlong never had such an idea, he didn't have the appetite to fight like this, and he knew that he couldn't eat it.

"Report to the brigade commander, our independent regiment wants to eat meat, and we also want to let the brother troops drink a sip of soup." Li Yunlong said.

Zhao Gang nodded, he knew what Li Yunlong meant, it was not a simple matter to kill the infantry battalion of the 9th Brigade that was independently mixed. As soon as the independent regiment moves against the infantry battalion of one of the devils, then the devils from other directions will inevitably come to support.

No matter how powerful the independent regiment is, it can't confront so many devils at the same time, and now report to the brigade commander, that is, it needs the support of the brigade commander.

"Lao Li, it seems that this time you really want to do a big wave! It's just that Lao Li, I want to remind you that there will be a lot of battles in the future, and we must prepare enough ammunition and materials in advance. Kong Jie looked at Li Yunlong and said with a smile.

Li Yunlong nodded, he naturally knew this, "In the next battle, save ammunition as much as possible, and pay attention to collecting ammunition." ”

"We don't have much capital in the independent regiment, we can't lose all the capital in this battle, even if we lose it, we have to earn new capital! However, the artillery company does not need to save shells, as long as there are shells, they will shoot them directly, do not save! ”

"Yes!" Liu Gen shouted solemnly.

Two days later, the independent regiment left Xinzhuang and headed in the direction of Yuci. The three battalions of the 9th Brigade of the Devil's Independent Mixed Brigade are still on the way, Li Yunlong has no patience to wait for them to come, so it is better to go over directly and kill them! If these devils make it to arrive, it will be a bit of a problem.

After the departure of the independent regiment, the soldiers of the cavalry company were in front and had war horses, so it was okay for them to act as scouts for a while. With the soldiers of the cavalry company scouting in front, Li Yunlong directly deployed the scouts to five kilometers away, according to Li Yunlong's words, he had never arranged the scouts so far.

On September 3, the Independent Regiment successfully arrived northwest of Yushe, where it successfully joined up with Cheng Blind's 772nd Regiment. When he knew that he was going to cooperate with Cheng Blind, Li Yunlong didn't say anything, he knew that Cheng Blind still had some ability to lead troops, and the combat effectiveness of the 772nd Regiment was not weak.

The 772nd Regiment is also the main regiment belonging to the 386th Brigade, and there are many devils killed.

Soon after the arrival of the independent regiment, Ding Wei and the new regiment also successfully arrived in this area, and Ding Wei was a little excited when he knew that it was three infantry battalions that were going to be independently mixed into the 9th Brigade of the devils, and he took the initiative to ask to come. Ding Wei, as Li Yunlong's old comrade-in-arms, is quite aware of Li Yunlong's character, and Li Yunlong will not do anything beneficial at all.

Coupled with the fact that the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment led by Li Yunlong is not weak, and there is such a configuration as the artillery company, Ding Wei naturally wants to eat some meat!
