Chapter 113: Preparations Before Entering the Mountain

The supplementary soldiers left, Yan Shijun also left, leaving with incomprehension and shame towards Zhao Zhi, and Fang Tianyu stayed. Fang Tianyu, who had a family feud, did not have a trace of disgust with Zhao Zhi's approach, but felt that it was right to stay here. Lang Zhong likes this cowardly-looking guy very much, especially his understanding of drugs, which is on par with Yuan Qingqing and Linda. Yuan Qingqing and Linda are both women, and it is impossible to follow the line of fire, and it is a little difficult to rely on Lang Zhong alone. Now that it's okay, there is another Fang Tianyu who understands medical skills, and Lang Zhong has been in a good mood for several days in a row.

Xiucai's level of extortion of confessions has obviously improved a lot, and in less than ten minutes, all three Japanese prisoners have confessed. The remnants of the Japanese army near Ledo were already moving in the direction of Savage Hill, where there were troops of the Eighteenth Division. Zhao Zhi and the Japanese team that they ambushed this time were ordered to retreat to Savage Mountain, but they didn't want to bump into Zhao Zhi and them in the woods.

"Inform the 114th Regiment and the Engineer Regiment of the situation, and let them beware of the Japanese troops in the woods" Zhao Zhi asked Edward to go to the 114th Regiment. These days, the progress of the road paving of the engineering regiment is too much, and Zhao Zhihao is afraid that he will be attacked by the Japanese army in a hurry for quick success. When the moon was in the treetops, Edward came back, and brought back dozens of elites who had returned from injury, all of whom had followed Zhao Zhi. The treacherous Edward, who began to learn with his uncle, exchanged more than 200 supplementary soldiers for dozens of veterans, and his uncle praised Edward for his ability.

Zhao Zhi's advance battalion has never exceeded 200 people, and the uncle is very anxious, there are nearly 30 lieutenants among these more than 100 people, no wonder some people call the advance battalion an officer company. Zhao Zhi is not in a hurry, his strength is weak, and he has the advantage of being weak, at least he will not be sent to fight any tough battles or positional defenses. Zhao Zhi, who has no bottom in his heart, has always felt that he is just a company commander, and his ability is to be able to manage more than 100 people, which is already the limit.

But the doglegs didn't think so, and took advantage of Zhao Zhi's injury and had no time to take care of their opportunity. The doglegs wandered around the small town of Ledo in twos and threes, pulling the soldiers who knew them well to drink every day, and in half a month's effort, nearly 300 people were gathered, almost emptying a battalion of the 114th Regiment.

"Tuanza, if this continues, I, the battalion commander, will become a bare-bones commander. My people are all confused by Zhao Zhi's gang, what should I do? Battalion commander Tian Jian slammed the steel helmet on the table and knocked over the tea that Yu Shicun had just brewed.

"What do you eat? Anyway, you're also a battalion commander, do you want me to teach you? Tomorrow I will pull your battalion into the mountains and go to the engineer regiment to be a guard" Zhang Tianxiang also has a headache for this incompetent battalion commander, if there is half of Zhao Zhi, Zhang Tianxiang estimates that he will wake up laughing when he sleeps at night.

"Tuanzuo, it's really not a way to mess around with Zhao Zhi's gang like this?" Yu Shicun, who was holding a teacup, teased Zhang Tianxiang with his words. "Anyway, our regiment will follow the engineer regiment into the mountain tomorrow, he Zhao Zhi can toss it casually in Lieduo, Lao Tzu can't manage it and doesn't want to care" Zhang Tianxiang, who had nothing to do, really had no choice.

Zhao Zhi's advance battalion was created by the British and American troops to rescue the joint team, and with its good combat performance, it was registered with the US and British headquarters. Although the 114th Regiment and Zhang Tianxiang were both Chinese, they belonged to different commands, and Zhang Tianxiang could not control Zhao Zhi and them.

"Aren't they good at mountain warfare? Let's apply to send them as the vanguard, can't we enter the jungle in advance? In this way, our casualties can be smaller" Yu Shicun tapped the teacup, looking scheming. After being warned by Zhang Tianxiang, Yu Shicun was honest for a while, and saw that there was no movement on Zhao Zhi's side, so he was going to start calculating Zhao Zhi again.

Zhao Zhike, who was far away in the hillside camp, didn't know this, he was enjoying Yuan Qingqing and Linda's meticulous care. Ignoring the sour gazes of the dogs in the dining shed, Zhao Zhi opened his mouth wide and swallowed the rice that Linda fed, tilted his head and ate from Yuan Qingqing's spoon. Looking at Zhao Zhi's expression, Uncle Guo was the first to stand it anymore, and stood up and kept shaking the military uniform on his body.

"Uncle Guo, you old thing, you're eating, you're doing Moss" Long Mao covered his bowl with his arm, afraid that Uncle Guo would shake something into his bowl. "Lao Tzu has goosebumps all over his body, and he is uncomfortable" Uncle Guo squinted at Zhao Zhi, and said in his mouth, but there was a strong sour taste in his words. The young guys of Mantou and Dog all bowed their heads, buried their faces in the bowl and tried their best to hold back laughter, but their constantly shaking shoulders had already betrayed them.

"Dog's day, you are bold, dare to laugh at Lao Tzu" The annoyed and angry uncle beat those boys one by one with his military boots, and the dining shed suddenly became a mess. Yuan Qingqing and Linda hurriedly took the food and Lang Zhong and they were far away, and Zhao Zhi, who was eating by the jeep, looked at the melee guys with relish, and occasionally pointed at them. "These guys, it's uncomfortable if you don't make trouble for a few days, so it's not okay" Lang Zhong was very worried, and heard the military doctor of the US military say that this is some kind of battlefield syndrome or something.

"Okay, let's all disperse" Zhao Zhi, who was full of food and drink, finally opened his mouth to stop the scuffle, "Rich man, take stock of our family." From now on, cancel all vacations and prohibit going out" Zhao Zhi's words made the dogs sniff out a trace of abnormality. Lao Pao rubbed his hands excitedly, "Holy shit, this is going to war" Zhao Zhi glared at Lao Pao fiercely, "Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, if you can't control your mouth, go find Lang Zhong to sew it"

In fact, before breakfast, Edward received a telegram from the headquarters, asking Zhao Zhi's advance battalion to cooperate with the paving of the engineer regiment and enter the mountains and forests in advance. The troops and equipment will then be brought in from Ramgarh, all veterans transferred from the country, and they will no longer be supplementary soldiers who do not understand anything.

However, the headquarters did not want Zhao Zhi to obey the command of the engineer regiment, but asked Zhao Zhi to arrive at the plain in advance under the condition of ensuring the safety of the engineer regiment, and the headquarters wanted to establish an airfield there to facilitate the transfer of materials. For this order, Zhao Zhi raised his hands to welcome it, and a large amount of supplies were hoarded in the camp, and there was no way to transport them away. If the road and airport are built, Zhao Zhi can transport things directly from Myanmar back to Kunming through Catherine.

The rich man and the female soldiers worked until the afternoon, when they counted the supplies hoarded in the camp. Enough to equip 300 people with American-style guns and matching ammunition, more British-style guns and bullets, can equip about 700 people, as well as a large number of canned food, medicines, and clothing, Zhao Zhi is now a big rich man. The old artillery also took the opportunity to go to the 114th regiment to move supplies, and got back two 81 mortars and a few machine guns, which have been teaching Roger how to operate these days.

Unlike the dogs' tense preparations, Zhao Zhi and Uncle Guo squatted by the stream every day and muttered something, and the steamed buns and dogs naturally wouldn't tell the content of their conversation. Uncle Guo decided to leave some people in the camp to guard the surplus supplies, and when the road was opened, he would find a way to transport them to the other side of the plain, and find an opportunity to transport them back to Kunming to be handed over to the profiteers. This was all exchanged for the lives of the brothers, and Uncle Guo did not agree and gave up in vain.

Zhao Zhi originally wanted Uncle Guo to stay with the female soldiers, but the old man disagreed, saying that he wanted to look at Zhao Zhi. In the end, Zhao Zhi had to agree to Uncle Guo's plan, and let the rich man stay with the female soldiers, and by the way, get in touch with the hairy head and wrench who stayed in Ramga. Yuan Qingqing and Linda naturally want to stay in Ledo, there is Roger here, and their safety should be guaranteed.

How to set up a project to keep the camp, Zhao Zhi has already thought about it. Didn't the headquarters want to send soldiers, so they said that they needed field training, and they would leave Roger as a training instructor, as long as they could hold up the road and repair it to the plain. This is the best way to train soldiers and protect female soldiers and supplies. How Zhao Zhi did the work of Yuan Qingqing and Linda and made them willing to stay in Ledo, everyone is not very clear, but Zhao Zhi's painful cry like killing a pig that night was heard by many people.

When selecting the left-behind personnel, no one was willing to stay, and in the end, Zhao Zhi said cruel words, and the rich man agreed to stay with a bitter face. A dozen female soldiers and a few hapless fellows were also left behind, as were the badly wounded bulls, and Roger was appointed commander of the camp. It's not that Zhao Zhi doesn't believe in the rich man, but the main force of the 38th Division is stationed in Lieduo, and Roger's American status can better maintain the camp.

Zhao Zhi is now waiting for an opportunity, waiting for the engineer regiment to be attacked by the Japanese army, and that is the right time for the advance battalion to attack. He was still thinking about the dozen or so American-style sniper rifles in the hands of the engineering regiment, and Uncle Guo now only had 7 sniper rifles, and 3 of them were made in the UK, and the bullets were really hard to find. Zhao Zhi sent Edward to the commander of the American army of the engineer regiment early to exchange for a few sniper rifles, but the engineer regiment looked dead and refused to agree.

Now in Ledo, only Zhao Zhi's advance battalion is familiar with mountain warfare. Zhao Zhi was waiting for the engineer regiment that had been attacked by the Japanese army to come to him, and when the time came, the dozen or so sniper rifles would become Zhao Zhi's reward for sending troops. After waiting for less than a week, people from the Engineer Regiment came to the door, and Yu Shicun of the 114th Regiment and an American major from the Engineer Regiment came.

"Battalion Commander Zhao, today we have something to ask for" Yu Shicun was straight to the point and said his intention directly. The engineering regiment paved the road very smoothly in advance, and smoothly made the engineering regiment forget that there were still Japanese troops lurking in the jungle, and finally the night before yesterday, it was attacked by the Japanese army, killing and wounding dozens of people, and part of the machinery for building the road was also damaged. The 114th Regiment's large-scale search of the mountains did not find any trace of the Japanese army, and then there were always cold guns attacking the sappers who paved the road, and now that the paving has stopped, the sappers do not want to brave the bullets to pave the road.

The engineer regiment, who had nothing to do, found the 114th regiment, and the 114th regiment sent Yu Shicun with the people of the engineer regiment to find Zhao Zhi, because only Zhao Zhi's people were masters of jungle warfare. Sure enough, Zhao Zhi's heart blossomed, and the more regretful the expression on his face.
