In the evening, the cavalry who moved out to reconnoiter came back one after another to report that less than an hour after the Reading Brigade withdrew from its position, the reinforcements of two squadrons sent by a brigade stationed in Itabashi rushed to Changshengkou, and the leader of the team was a Shao Zuo, and when he led the troops to see the imperial soldiers who were naked all over the ground, he couldn't help but get angry, and fought at one of his lieutenants, "Yaga, Yaga, the cunning Shina man" until he was tired of fighting and remembered to report the situation to Zhongsa in Banqiao The soldiers of a reinforced squadron and a small squad of cavalry squads escorting supplies were all broken jade, and the remains of the Imperial soldiers were being sorted out, and no soldiers were seen. ”

Devil Itabashi Command, Yamada Nakasa after receiving Shaoza's report, couldn't believe it, kept repeating "Nani", after getting the exact news of Shaoza, Yamada no longer dared to slack off, and hurriedly reported the situation to his commander of the Sixth Division, the Sixth Wing of the Heavy Army, Kawa Zhentian Guowei Osa.

"Nani, a reinforced squadron of Imperial soldiers has been wiped out and all supplies have been looted. Yaga: "Dazuo started a fire at the staff officer who reported the news. At the same time, the Sixth Wing of the Cavalry of the Yue Army sent a large number of cavalry to search for the shadow of the Reading Brigade, but now the Reading Brigade has long been hiding in the mountains, and the cavalry of the Yue Army can't think of it.

In the evening, under the cover of the woods, the Reading Brigade held a short celebration meeting, and the entire station of the Reading Brigade was filled with the smell of meat, in the words of the brigade commander Liu Hua, so many mules and horses were killed. If we don't eat it, we throw it away, what a pity, so more than a hundred mules and horses that were killed were slaughtered by the various cooking classes of the Reading Brigade, and each soldier worked hard to get four or five catties of cooked meat, which was very tempting for the soldiers who had eaten dry food for a long time. The whole station was full of laughter and laughter, there was no feeling of loss of comrades, and the morale of the entire Reading Brigade was now high.

The temporary conference room of the Reading Brigade was also full of excitement, and everyone's faces were full of smiles, and the Reading Brigade had a perfect victory in the first battle against the devils, can you not be happy.

"Okay, don't be too happy, the cavalry company reported, now the devil has dispatched a large number of cavalry to search for us, you must know that now we have a large number of first-line troops concentrated in our vicinity, and the devil's revenge psychology is particularly strong, so we must pay special attention to not let the devil bite." Liu Hua saw that everyone was almost eating, and said seriously.

"Also, today you all saw the combat effectiveness of the devil, how about it, we have you! You must know that the baggage troops of the devils in Zhuji City that we annihilated today, their combat effectiveness and the current front-line troops of the devils are simply incomparable, so we must be cautious and cautious in future battles," Liu Hua's words made everyone fall silent.

Seeing that the atmosphere had cooled down all of a sudden, the political commissar hurriedly quipped, "Hehe, comrades, don't worry, we believe that under the leadership of the brigade commander, our Reading Force Brigade will become stronger and stronger, okay, now please ask the chief of staff to talk about the recent arrangement." ”

"Order, before the enemy situation is discovered, the three main regiments are all concealed and on standby, and the scouts of each regiment, the brigade headquarters reconnaissance battalion, and the cavalry company are dispatched to reconnoiter the enemy situation along the line of Xiyang, Pingding, and Zhengtai, and report at any time, focusing on the reconnaissance of the enemy situation near Qiqian Village (of course, this is what Liu Hua particularly emphasized according to history, Liu Hua is not like missing such a good opportunity). Another thing is the issue of captured equipment, and now the appointment of the brigade headquarters has been announced, and the cavalry company has been changed to a cavalry battalion, with the existing platoon commander promoted to company commander, the battalion commander is Wang Hu, and the instructor Sun Ping has three cavalry companies and a heavy fire platoon under his command, equipped with two mortars and four captured Type 92 heavy machine guns. With regard to the equipment for this delivery, the brigade headquarters plans to do so, and in the future, the equipment of the main force will be slowly replaced with equipment and equipment, so that it will be convenient to replenish the supply, because we are in the rear of the enemy, and it is difficult to replenish the ammunition of domestic rifles. Therefore, with this decision, now that a company of military equipment has been captured, the brigade headquarters has decided to hand over all of it to the new regiment for training, and after a large amount of equipment is captured in the future, the main force will be reequipped. ”

The cadres below nodded their heads again and again, knowing that this suggestion of the brigade headquarters was very wise.

According to Liu Hua's recollections, the current army is about to occupy Niangzi Pass, and after the army occupies Niangzi Pass, the goal of the army is too far, the fall of Taiyuan marks the loss of the national party in the entire frontal battlefield in Shanxi, and the rest is the task of the Eighth Route Army behind the enemy. In the future, you don't have to worry about anything when you start a war yourself.

Thinking of this, Liu Hua stopped the political commissar and chief of staff who were about to sleep, and told them his idea of establishing a base here, and the two fell silent after hearing this, but soon, the benefits of establishing a base here appeared in the eyes of the two.

This place is backed by the mountains, and there are vast plains as a support, food, soldiers do not have to worry at all, plus here and the grassroots party organizations, the resistance to the development of the team is much smaller, and there is another advantage Liu Hua did not say, he can be based on the tunnel warfare of later generations, mine warfare in the vast plain to gain a firm foothold

"I agree with the brigade commander." The commissar broke the silence.

"I agree." The Chief of Staff also spoke.

"Okay, since everyone agrees, I will write a report tonight, and tomorrow I will take it to your two big brothers for review, and then send it to the headquarters, division headquarters and the central government respectively." Liu Hua stole the inquiring eye.

"Yes." Both replied at the same time.

At this time, the commander of the baggage brigade stationed in Itabashi, Yamada Nakasa, was receiving a reprimand from his superior, Kawasanada Kuniwei Daisa, and it turned out that after an afternoon of searching, the Chinese soldiers did not see the shadows, and nearly 300 imperial warriors were broken in vain. "Hey, hey," Yamada nodded incessantly into the phone.

Finally, Yamada hung up the phone sweating profusely, and at the same time received a call from the leader of a cavalry squadron stationed in Walnut Orchard, asking for help to continue the search and avenge the Imperial soldiers of Jade Shatter, and at the same time, Yamada Nakasa also sent several reconnaissance teams to the rural areas to investigate.

In the face of the revenge psychology of the Yue army, Liu Hua still didn't expect that since it was so serious, it would take so long for three hundred soldiers to take so long.

Soon, with the help of some local underground parties, a piece of information reached Liu Hua's hands.
