I heard that Dong Ping did not want to lure these ground rats to appear, but deliberately used this small and highly concealed village as bait. Seeing the old squad leader next to Dong Ping nodding and signaling that Dong Ping's report was true, Li Ziyuan breathed a sigh of relief.

When Dong Ping reported before, Li Ziyuan was really worried that he would use these Japanese soldiers, eager to replenish supplies and worried about being discovered, and used such a small village to lure the Japanese army into taking the bait. If he really did this, it would really be a big stab.

This is not just a matter as simple as going to a court-martial, even shooting is enough. Even if you don't need someone from the military region, you will shoot him with one shot. Ignoring the lives of dozens of ordinary people, this practice is absolutely intolerable. Even if it is a person who admires himself, he must not cross this bottom line.

Looking at it now, my worries just now are still a little unnecessary. In this battle, Dong Ping finally chose a conservative approach and did not adopt too radical tactics. Thinking about it now, with the old squad leader by his side to supervise, Dong Ping didn't dare to do it even if he had this heart.

It's just that the lives of forty or fifty people plus the price paid made Li Ziyuan feel a little uncomfortable. But since the matter has come out, even if Li Ziyuan is uncomfortable, he can only end here. In this matter, Li Ziyuan could not criticize Dong Ping. Because he knew that no matter whether Dong Ping found out that the Japanese army was hiding in that village, the result of launching an attack or not would be the same.

In order to cover up their whereabouts during sneak attacks, it was quite common for the Japanese army to kill people and kill their mouths. In their eyes, the Chinese cannot be regarded as human beings at all. This is always the way these guys work, and they never show mercy in killing Chinese when they think they need to.

However, looking at the village marked by Dong Pingxin on the map, Li Ziyuan also scratched his head and thought for a long time. I have the impression that I still have troops with me, and I have passed by here a few times, but I didn't find that there are still villages there. Just like Dong Ping said, let alone Dong Ping, even he has no impression of this village.

Looking at this extremely hidden village on the map, Li Ziyuan suddenly remembered a place. But he didn't expect that this kind of village actually existed in Hubei, which was not even the hinterland of Taihang Mountain. It is not easy to get out of this kind of village, but it is not easy to get out of the mountains.

Clicking on the location of the village on the map, Li Ziyuan said to Dong Ping: "Old Dong, I will give you a new task while you rest for a while." Whether there are still such villages in the entire Ludong area, you go and investigate carefully. If so, mark them all for me on this map. ”

"Although we paid a considerable price this time, after all, we will find out these ground rats and completely eliminate them. So, I'm going to give you two a lot of credit this time. But we also need to learn lessons to avoid similar things happening again in the future. Also, all the sniper rifles were handed over to Da Li except for half of the division. ”

After listening to Li Ziyuan's order, Dong Ping nodded, and then some words were stopped after talking. Looking at Dong Ping, who was a little stumbling, Li Ziyuan said: "Old Dong, if there is anything, you can say it directly." Between us, what else can't be said? It's not like I'm not incapable of dissenting opinions. ”

Li Ziyuan's voice fell, and Dong Ping hesitated for a moment before saying, "Regiment Commander, the mission is over, should I also hand over the reconnaissance company?" This time, I took them on a mission, and it should be said that Liu Lianming led this unit very well. An effective set of tactics was formed. This time, I was able to find this trace of devils, thanks to the casual clothes on their bodies. ”

"However, although the reconnaissance company performed well, I always felt that there were still some shortcomings in tactics. Some aspects are redundant, and some aspects are still a little bit worse. It's just that it's still a little hot there, and I still need to think about it carefully. Regiment commander, I hope that this reconnaissance company, I can train in the belt for a while. ”

Regarding Dong Ping's request, Li Ziyuan finally chose to nod and agree. In fact, Li Ziyuan also felt that the reconnaissance company in his hands always had some shortcomings in the use of tactics. But what are the shortcomings of the reconnaissance company, Li Ziyuan has never figured it out.

And it is impossible for Li Ziyuan to put all his energy on a reconnaissance company. At the moment, since Dong Ping has also seen some problems, then he will not bother the two masters, and the reconnaissance company will let Dong Ping take it for a while before talking. As for whether Liu Lianming can go back and continue to lead this unit, it depends on his performance.

After sending off Dong Ping and the old squad leader who reported away, Li Ziyuan sat in the war room a little tired. But he didn't go directly to rest, but picked up the enemy report from his superiors and read it. He knew that he had delayed a lot of things during the time he was injured. There are some things that I still have to be familiar with at the first time.

Following the approved applications of Ma Yongcheng and Yang Jing, there was also the latest enemy report from this period of time. Wang's puppet Second Front Army, which suffered the heaviest losses in the course of this sweep, is now being reduced in strength. According to insider information, the puppet army has been transferred to the northern Jiangsu region by the Wang puppet government in Nanjing.

At present, Wang's puppet government is coordinating with the General Headquarters of the Japanese Army's Chinese Dispatch Army, and wants to complete the reorganization of the Ministry as soon as possible, which has suffered heavy losses. Of course, the main thing is to resupply the lost weapons and ammunition as soon as possible. For this second front army, the Wang puppet regime still attaches great importance to it, but the Japanese army has not yet nodded in agreement.

Compared with the puppet Second Front Army of Wang, which the Japanese army did not nod for a long time, the puppet security division, which also suffered heavy losses, had already completed the rectification at the first time. The Japanese First Army, not knowing from there, replenished the puppet army with a batch of Italian light weapons. Although the number of machine guns is insufficient, the rifles are fully equipped.

As for Wang Tieshi's so-called puppet Ludong Garrison Joint Defense Corps, anyway, this loss is the slightest, and it can't be replenished for the time being. However, Wang Tieshi, this guy, has now gone to Taiyuan to dredge the headquarters of the First Army. One wants to expand the establishment and troops, and the second still wants to squeeze out the pseudo-security division.

Regarding the enemy report in front of him, Li Ziyuan rubbed his eyes, but he didn't pay much attention to it. For him, no matter how the current situation changes, there is no doubt about one thing. That is, no matter how the surrounding enemy situation changes, as long as you are strong, no one is afraid.

With the addition of new recruits from above, and the mobilized prisoners, the unit structure has now been restored to its integrity, and it can even be said that it is slightly overstaffed. As for the weapons and equipment, they are now quite complete, and they still have a part of the ammunition reserves in their hands. Although it is not too much, more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition are enough to be used for a while.

As long as the troops complete the restoration of combat effectiveness, what can the devils and puppet army do with themselves? Putting down the enemy report in his hand, Li Ziyuan stood up and walked out of the war room. Looking at the bright starry sky at night in the Taihang Mountains, Li Ziyuan took a deep breath and suddenly felt quite refreshed.

However, turning his head and looking at the room that temporarily served as Ma Yongcheng and Yang Jing's new house, Li Ziyuan couldn't help but show a smile at the corner of his mouth. For Li Ziyuan, the danger brought by Yang Jing is much greater than that of Wang Tieshi and the security guard combined. Now that Yang Jing is *, it is estimated that even if she is unwilling, she will not pull down her face and entangle herself again.

just remembered Tang Qiao, but Li Ziyuan had a headache again. Tang Qiao did not have any entanglement with himself during this time, nor did he show any intimacy with himself. only occasionally looked at his own eyes, so that Li Ziyuan could see that something was wrong even if he realized it later.

After shaking his head and making his thoughts clearer, Li Ziyuan returned to the war room. Looking at the map on the table, my eyes were fixed on the newly marked village for a long time. After thinking about it, he asked people to find Dong Ping, who had just left, and brought him back: "Old Dong, get ready, take me to this village tomorrow to have a look." ”

Li Ziyuan's advice, although he didn't know what he thought, Dong Ping still nodded: "Okay, I'll prepare immediately." However, the regiment commander, if you ride a horse, you can only go seven miles southeast of this village. If you want to go in again, you can only climb the mountain. This mountain road is quite rough, can you do it with your body that has just recovered from a serious injury? ”

Regarding Dong Ping's worries, Li Ziyuan shook his head and said, "You also underestimate me too much, just this little mountain road is nothing." There's nothing wrong with my body, so don't worry about it. Tomorrow, you and I will bring a reconnaissance squad, as well as dry food and water for a few days. ”

Just as Dong Ping nodded and was about to leave, Li Ziyuan thought for a while and said, "Old Dong, bring a pen and paper when I go tomorrow, I need a detailed topographic map of the surrounding area." And this topographic map, I want to be as detailed as possible. If you can take it down, it would be best, if not, bring Wang Jun with you. ”

Li Ziyuan's request, Dong Ping thought for a while and said, "Commander, I have no problem with this." But I need a high-magnification telescope, and it's best to let Zhou Tong go too. When Lao Zhou was in the Jin Sui Army, it seems that he had learned topographic surveying and mapping. Also, he has an artillery team mirror captured in the first battle of Jiuding Mountain, and neither Wang nor I can use that thing. ”

"Yes, you can have someone notify Lao Zhou immediately. Let him bring everything he needs. You also have to prepare, prepare, and don't leave anything behind when the time comes. And don't tell anyone about this yet. After a while, I will talk to Lao Qian and a few of them, and we will leave tomorrow when we get up early. Regarding Dong Ping's suggestion, Li Ziyuan agreed without thinking about it.

Seeing Li Ziyuan's promise, Dong Ping didn't say anything more, and turned around and left after a neat military salute. Looking at the back of him leaving, Li Ziyuan looked at the map in front of him, and after thinking about it, he still found several other regimental cadres, except for Ma Yongcheng, who was currently enjoying the night of candles in the cave room.

Li Ziyuan thinks that as long as it is not a devil who has called, it is inappropriate, immoral, and even quite immoral to disturb others at this time. Therefore, Li Ziyuan was very considerate, and when he sent someone to find several other regiment-level cadres, he let go of Ma Yongcheng, who was enjoying the joy of humanity.

It's just that Li Ziyuan knows that Ma Yongcheng is not enjoying his thoughtfulness at the moment, and this cave room is a little aggrieved by the candle night. At this time, he was lying on a bench, looking at his new wife very depressed, and could only look but not move. Yang Jing said that she was not ready, so she let Ma Yongcheng, who regarded her as a celestial, be extremely aggrieved in this cave room.
