"Guard Company!" As soon as Zhou Liang left, Li Hao shouted at the top of his voice.

"Here!" Sun Jiawu, the commander of the guard company, ran over quickly, looked at Li Hao with an eager expression and asked.

"Regiment commander, is there a mission, the guards are almost suffocated."

Li Hao nodded and replied: "There are still many remnants of the Japanese puppet army in the city that have not been cleared, and there are still troops to control those grain teams, so the first battalion can't leave for the time being." ”

"You take the guard company and set off now, pick some locals from the captured puppet army, let them lead the way, and secretly control all the roads and paths leading to the outside world in the north of Yi County."

"The task is the same as the cavalry battalion, the Japanese puppet army is resolutely eliminated, and the common people are only allowed to enter and not to leave, and the speed must be fast."

"When the commissar arrives, the first battalion will be free to replace you."

Half an hour later, Zhou Liang appeared in front of Li Hao again, and the smile on his face was even stronger than just now: "Regiment commander, the commander of the first battalion Liu has good news, they have killed the Japanese puppet army chasing and killing the guerrilla brigade." ”

"The commander of the devil garrison has also been killed, it is a Zhongzuo, and they are currently dividing their forces to occupy the nearby Japanese puppet army stronghold."

The smile on Li Hao's face became even stronger, and he immediately replied: "Call Liu Senyun back, the attack speed must be fast." ”

"Not only must we control all the nearby Japanese puppet army sites before dawn, but we must also block all the roads and mountain roads leading from Yi County to Baoding, and the news of our occupation of Yi County will be revealed as soon as possible."

At five o'clock in the morning, the political commissar, who had been walking all night, finally arrived at the county seat before dawn with a grain transport team.

"Commander, I have brought all the means of transport that the base can bring."

"After receiving your telegram, I sent a telegram to Deputy Regiment Commander Luo, asking him to mobilize the nearby villagers to stand by on the edge of the base area, and the more people the better."

"We only need to send the captured back to the base area, and the villagers will pick up after crossing the devil's blockade line, and then the carts and mules and horses can re-enter Yi County and transport them again."

"Great!" Li Hao shouted happily.

"I was worried that there would not be enough transport, and if someone was on the edge of the base to pick us up, then our carts and mules and horses would be able to transport them back and forth twice."

"We can definitely move all our harvest in Yi County back to the base area."

After speaking, Li Hao looked at Hong Linfeng and ordered: "Chief of Staff, you tell the political commissar how many good things we harvested last night, so that our logistics butler can be happy." ”

"Yes, Commander......"

Hong Linfeng rushed to the county seat two hours in advance, took out the list he had just counted, and said excitedly.

"Political commissar, last night's harvest was far more than we judged, you have to be mentally prepared, don't be scared for a while."

"In the county seat, we intercepted a total of 7.6 million catties of grain, salt, oil, and other necessary daily necessities from the grain transportation team left here by the Japanese puppet army, more than 500,000 catties."

"The little devil arsenal, the material warehouse, the warehouse of the Imperial Army, and the grain merchant warehouse controlled by the Japanese have seized a total of 3.65 million catties of grain."

"In addition, there are nearly 500,000 rounds of ammunition of various kinds, nearly 1,000 guns, 86 light and heavy machine guns, and 11 mortars, including those we captured from the Japanese puppet army on the battlefield."

"We have controlled a lot of traitors outside the city, they are all local tyrants and inferior gentry, and every household has a large amount of materials and food."

"According to preliminary judgment, at least one million catties of grain can be harvested from them."

"The other big one outside the city is the military column."

"Because the railway line is paralyzed, there are a total of 13 military trains parked in Yi County, most of which are transporting military rations, and some of them are transporting cotton, canned food, military uniforms, medicines, weapons and ammunition and other war materials."

"We roughly counted the following: more than 8 million catties of military rations, nearly 200,000 catties of cotton, more than 500,000 catties of canned food, more than 100,000 catties of military uniforms, clothing, and medicines, and at least 200,000 catties of weapons and ammunition."

Wang Hong almost jumped up with excitement.

He took the list handed over by the chief of staff and read it over and over again, and it took a few minutes to believe that it was true, and looked at Li Hao and shouted excitedly: "Regiment commander, these things are urgently needed by the base area, and they must all be transported back." ”

"Let me think about it: there are more than 20 million catties of grain, nearly 2 million catties of various materials, and 200,000 catties of cotton in it, and it will take at least two trips to the means of transport I brought and the captured means of transport to send them all back to the base area."

"Now the convoy has started loading. If there is no attack, they can go back and forth once a day and night, which means that the troops must occupy Yixian until the early morning of the day after tomorrow. ”

"There can't be devils in the middle to sneak attack the convoy, otherwise it will take us longer."

"I wonder if the army can buy me so much time?"

"Two days and one night?" The smile on Li Hao's face disappeared, and he frowned and muttered to himself.

Hong Linfeng's face also became serious.

This place is too close to Baoding and Beiping, if you let the devil know that Yixian is occupied by the garrison, you will definitely send heavy troops to counterattack.

And in order to ensure the safety of the grain transportation team, there is only one way: to block them outside Yi County and carry all the Japanese puppet troops who want to enter Yi County.

The main force of the garrison regiment in Yi County was less than 2,000 people, and it was not only necessary to divide troops to defend the three directions of southeast, south, and north, but also to send troops to continue to wipe out the Japanese puppet army in Yi County and protect the safety of the grain transportation team.

This means a maximum of 500 people in each direction, and any more will be gone.

With more than 500 people, the Japanese puppet army attacked several times its size, and it also had to withstand the joint attack of devils' heavy artillery, aircraft, and tanks, which was no different from sending them to death.

Not only will it not last for two days, but the troops will also fall into it, losing their wives and losing their troops.

"Regiment Commander: I will immediately send a telegram to the three battalion commanders, ordering them to take advantage of the favorable terrain in the local area to build a few more blocking positions." After thinking for two minutes, Hong Linfeng proposed with a frown.

"If there is really a Japanese puppet army counterattacking Yixian, we can block it layer by layer and buy time for the political commissar to rush to transport food and materials, and an hour is counted as an hour."

Li Hao sighed and replied: "This is a last resort. ”

"Even if enough time is bought for the political commissar in the end, the troops participating in the war will be dragged on the battlefield by the devils and cannot be withdrawn, and the losses will be great."

"The best way is not to fight this battle, block the news, hide it from the world, and don't let the devils find out that Yi County has been captured by us."

Hong Linfeng shook his head and replied, "The possibility is almost zero." ”

"Xiao Yuan just sent out a piece of information: when we broke the city, the chief of staff of the devil sent all the heralds of the headquarters, and took advantage of the chaos to go out of the city to a nearby stronghold for help."

"We've killed some, but there are definitely fish that slip through the net."

"If these people are allowed to join up with the intelligence officers of the Japanese puppet army outside the city, even if we block all the roads and paths, they will have a way to send the news out, but it will take a little longer."

"The second thing: The headquarters of the North China Front of the Japanese Army attaches great importance to the paralysis of roads and railways in Yixian County, and sends telegrams and calls every day to inquire about the progress of road repair."

"After dawn, they will definitely contact Yi County, and if they can't receive a reply, they will also be suspicious, and then send someone into Yi County to investigate, or directly send military planes into Yi County to conduct low-altitude reconnaissance."

"If they perceive something, they will not only send troops to counterattack Yi County, but also send planes to bomb our grain convoy."
