"Chief, the independent battalion is in an emergency!"

As soon as the chief of staff was about to give the order, the communications staff officer rushed over with a smile on his face.

After taking the telegram and just glancing at it, the chief of staff had a happy face and exclaimed excitedly.

"It's good news~ Commander, we're saying that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will arrive, and the independent battalion has reported to us that we have arrived!"

"Watanabe's brigade retreated, and it was a disarray. Nearly 1,500 troops were dispatched from Lingqiu County, and only more than 500 people were withdrawn! ”

The commander's mood today is like a changeable weather, with ups and downs.

As soon as he calmed down from the shock, his heart finally calmed down, and the chief of staff's words stirred up in his heart again, and his heart suddenly rose to his throat, and he was afraid that he had heard it wrong, so he stared at the chief of staff and asked rhetorically.

"How much? You repeat the data just now! ”

"Comrade Li Hao reported that the Watanabe Brigade has retreated, leaving the city with more than 1,400 people, only returning more than 500 people, and directly losing more than 800 people!"

"I remember that Watanabe's brigade left Lingqiu City yesterday morning, right?" The commander continued to ask with a shocked face.

The chief of staff affirmed: "I went out of the city yesterday morning, and after walking more than 20 kilometers, I was blocked by the independent battalion in Dongtian Village!" ”

The commander finally reacted from the shock and exclaimed with excitement: "Miracle, this can definitely be called a miracle!" ”

"In less than two days, he killed more than 800 little devils, how did he Li Hao do it!"

"There is an introduction on telegram!" The chief of staff hastened to answer.

"Yesterday afternoon, they first took advantage of the complex terrain of Dongtian Village to lure the devils into the village and fight with them in the streets!"

"This morning, they continued to set up an ambush in Dongtian Village for the second time, successfully intercepted the Japanese artillery and baggage troops, and repelled the Japanese infantry counterattack, forcing them to abandon the artillery and baggage troops, and then concentrated their forces to annihilate them!"

"Both battles were fought in Dongtian Village, and a total of more than 800 devils were killed and countless were captured!"

"However, the losses of the independent battalion are also very large, the deputy battalion commander was seriously injured, a company commander was killed, a company commander was injured, and another company was wiped out, and the whole battalion commander sacrificed more than 420 people from the beginning of the battle to the end of the battle, and the entire independent battalion was almost replaced!"

"If it weren't for their mobilization of prisoners to join the Eighth Route Army, and replenishing new recruits while fighting on the battlefield, the independent battalion would probably have been wiped out!"

"Even so, all the combat units of the independent battalion add up to less than two hundred people, and one-third of them are seriously wounded, intact and uninjured, and the whole battalion can't find a few!"

The smile on the commander's face was gone, and after reading the contents of the telegram very carefully, his face was slowly replaced by solemnity.

After taking a deep breath, he replied: "The independent battalion fought very fiercely, otherwise the casualties would not have been so large!" ”

"However, more than 800 little devils were killed in two battles, and in terms of the proportion of casualties, those casualties were worth it. There are so many little devils to accompany the burial, and those sacrificed soldiers should also be able to look at them! ”

"Send a telegram back to the independent battalion immediately: Compile such a detailed battle report as soon as possible, I want to read it!"

"The independent battalion will not send any combat missions to the military division for the next three months, so we must seize this time and recover our strength as soon as possible!"

"All the equipment and ammunition captured by the independent battalion in this operation will be left by themselves to expand the troops!"

"In addition, order the first, second and second brigades to draw ten squad-level cadres each to come out and reinforce the independent battalion!"

"The ammunition for the two major battles of the military division was supported by independent battalions, and this time the military division should also support them!"

"The losses of the troops are so great, the fighters have almost changed, and the losses of the cadres must have been very large. Twenty squad and platoon cadres should be able to help Li Hao a lot! ”

"As for the reward, tell Li Hao, I will write it down for him for the time being, and I won't give any reward this time. It took only a few months for them to expand from the anti-Japanese guerrillas to the independent battalion, and if the troops continue to expand, they will take too big a step and shake the combat effectiveness of the troops! ”

At the independent battalion station in Hongquan Village, Li Hao just walked into the headquarters with his front foot, and Zhou Liang, the deputy platoon commander of the communications platoon, chased him in with his back foot.

"Battalion commander, instructor, military division emergency call!"

"Give it to me!" Li Hao grabbed the message and began to browse it.

Soon, Li Hao's face bloomed with joy, and he exclaimed excitedly: "Okay...... The commander is simply a roundworm in our stomach, and he will send what we lack! ”

"On the way back, I was still thinking about how to reorganize the first company, and now with the twenty squad and platoon cadres sent by the division, the shelves of the first company can be erected immediately! The other few even the sacrificial squad platoon commanders can make up for it immediately! ”

Instructor Wang Hong's face also bloomed with joy.

He has seen all the seizures brought back by the troops, and as the chief steward of the independent battalion, what he is most worried about is that this kind of equipment and ammunition will be left by the military subdivision before it is warmed up.

The losses of the independent battalion in this big battle were too great, there was a shortage of soldiers, weapons and ammunition, everything.

Once those weapons and ammunition are separated by the military, it will certainly be impossible for the independent battalion to complete the expansion at one time.

Now, the commander made it clear that all the captures of the independent battalion in this operation were all left, so that his worries and worries would be gone, and there was no need to bother with how to leave more.

His eyes lit up and he replied: "There are also those equipment and ammunition, and the commander asked us to keep them all." In this way, as long as there are soldiers, our independent battalion can be expanded at one time

"Time is not waiting for me, expand the army now!" Li Hao ordered in surprise.

The instructor hesitated for a moment and reminded, "Won't it be too urgent!" ”

"The troops have just come back from the war, why do you have to take a break!"

"And those who are lightly and seriously injured, they also need time to recover!"

Li Hao shook his head and replied, "Can't wait!" ”

"Now the total combat troops of the whole battalion are only more than 100 people, if the devils take the opportunity to attack our station, we don't even have the strength to resist, we can only flee as a shrunken turtle!"

Then he shifted his gaze to Chen Wei, the reconnaissance platoon commander next to him.

"There has been no movement since the Watanabe Brigade returned to Lingqiu County. What I'm most worried about now is that he knows our true strength, and then takes the opportunity to send troops to attack us, and then we really don't even have room to fight back! ”

"Rest assured, battalion commander!" Chen Wei hurriedly replied.

"After the more than 500 people of the Watanabe Brigade returned to Lingqiu City, the gate was closed, and it has not been opened until now!"

"The city is full of devils patrolling back and forth, and even the puppet army is rare, and the security is very tight."

"Half of the soldiers in the reconnaissance platoon are watching outside the city, and there is also a low-power radio, no matter what accident happens, we can know it as soon as possible!"

He Wenlin, the commander of the internal security platoon, then stood up: "Please rest assured that the battalion commander is also in the independent battalion, during the time when the troops are on the march, we have taken the Japanese puppet army agents around the station by interrogating the Japanese puppet army agents who have been captured!" ”

"And now that the gates of Lingqiu City are closed, the news is not so easy to get in. I promise, within ten days, Watanabe Nakasa of Lingqiu City will definitely not be able to figure out our true strength! ”

"God help me!" Li Hao suddenly shouted, with a smile on his face.

"Watanabe's brigade is shrinking in the city as a shrunken turtle, Nuo Da Lingqiu, except for three strongholds, there is no Japanese puppet army that can threaten us......"

"Nuo Da Lingqiu, completely open to us. If you don't seize the opportunity to take these places now and turn Lingqiu into a lonely city, it will be difficult to encounter such a good opportunity in the future! ”

Instructor Wang Hong was also moved, and replied with a light in his eyes: "This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" ”

"The only problem is that the troops are too tired, we have too few troops!"
