Wang Ping, Zhong Chenggong, and several company commanders chatted for several hours before they figured out the situation of the other party after the division of troops.

After finishing, Zhong Chenggong stared at Wang Ping and asked, "Commander, the situation outside the mountain has been completely disrupted by you, and the devil has to end the encirclement and suppression in the mountain ahead of schedule." What's next for our new group! ”

"Prepare for battle!" Wang Ping replied without thinking about it.

"I did the math just now, and with the addition of the ones you captured in the mountains, the number of puppet troops in our hands has reached an astonishing fifteen hundred! If we can mobilize seventy percent of the personnel among them to join the new regiment, then our new regiment will live up to its name, and it will not be a shelf regiment with a regimental establishment and a total strength of less than a battalion! ”

"I agree, the reason why the troops in the mountains have been able to hold back the devils to encircle and suppress the troops for so long is that these converted captives have played a great role. They are well-trained, and as long as they do a good job in ideological work, they can fight when they join the troops, and they are definitely the best candidates for the expansion of our new regiment! Zhong Chenggong affirmed.

"It's the same on my side, the combat units of the two companies, in addition to the backbone, the ordinary soldiers have almost changed more than one stubble. The reason why we can fight continuously is because of the support of these transformed captive soldiers! Wang Ping affirmed.

Then the order began: "We have the radio now, and there are two good ones. Since the new regiment was hit hard by the devils, the brigade headquarters has not been contacted. I'm going to contact the brigade headquarters tonight and report on the combat situation during this time! ”

"Also, the expansion of the army and the appointment of relevant personnel must also be affirmed by the brigade headquarters!"

Zhong Chenggong wanted to contact the brigade headquarters more than anyone else.

After the regimental headquarters was destroyed by Matsumoto, the remnants of the new regiment were like children without a home, and they didn't want to find a home all the time.

However, there was no radio, no password, no operator, and it was far from the brigade headquarters. Zhong Chenggong's only way to contact the brigade headquarters was to send a liaison officer.

Although it was a little longer, after all, it was still possible to receive orders from the brigade headquarters.

However, since the devils in Linfen City were expanded into brigades and strengthened the blockade of the new regiment, the contact between the liaison officers was also broken.

Now I heard that Wang Ping brought back the radio station, and directly brought back two parts.

Zhong Chenggong jumped up from his seat like chicken blood, then stared at Wang Ping and asked, "Where?" Commander, where is the radio? He's a baby, so he's a treasure, so he's got to protect him! ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the smile on Zhong Chenggong's face disappeared, and he showed a disappointed expression.

"Commander, even a radio station is not enough. It is also necessary to have a code book, a telegrapher, all of which are indispensable, and then you can contact the brigade headquarters. But we don't have anything. The operator died, and the codebook was destroyed when the regimental headquarters was attacked! ”

"I know the password, and I can send and receive telegrams on the radio!" Wang Ping replied without thinking about it.

Zhong Chenggong was stunned for a moment, and then his face was covered with a huge surprise.

"Commander, you didn't lie to me! So what are you waiting for? Send a telegram to the brigade headquarters immediately, our new regiment has not received news from the brigade headquarters for a long time, and if we don't send a telegram to the past, the brigade headquarters will almost forget about our new regiment! ”

Wang Ping affirmed: "Battalion Commander Zhong, you have forgotten what I did before I became the regiment commander. Since everyone is in such a hurry, then we will send it now, while everyone is here, contact the brigade headquarters first! ”

After the last anti-encirclement and suppression battle, the 386 Brigade completely won the support of the local people.

Several of the main regiments, which were seriously damaged, quickly regained their strength with the support of the people in the base areas.

Of course, devils are not vegetarians. Since the sweep was unsuccessful, it was necessary to take the county town it occupied as the center, overhaul the pillboxes and turrets, compress the activity space of the Eighth Route Army in the countryside, and by the way, separate the activities of several main regiments of the 386 Brigade and find opportunities to break through each one.

Not only that, but they also used the method that Matsumoto came up with to set up a maintenance association in Taiyue, and through the maintenance association, they controlled the common people and cut off the foundation of the Eighth Route Army's survival in Taiyue.

"Brigade commander, several regiments have recently sent telegrams to complain that the devil's move to set up a maintenance committee is too ruthless, and many villages that were originally guerrilla areas are now completely mastered by the devils. The activity area of several regiments has been compressed by the devils by at least thirty percent, and some have even been compressed by half! The chief of staff walked up to Brigade Commander Chen and reported with a heavy face.

The political commissar next to him frowned and analyzed: "The devil's trick is very good. Our food, soldiers, and supplies all come from the common people. If they control the common people, they will cut off our foundation! ”

"Brigade Commander, you must find a way to break the devil's maintenance meeting!"

Brigade Commander Chen's clenched fist suddenly smashed on the table in front of him, and he decided very decisively: "Then break them!" ”

"The devils can control the people by setting up maintenance associations, then we will set up guerrillas and go deep into enemy-occupied areas to defeat these maintenance associations!"

"The devils don't have many troops, these maintenance meetings are their minions to control the people, as long as we defeat these minions, so many people, they can't control them if they want to!"

"Of course, they can also choose to divide their forces and garrison these villages. However, I don't think that as long as the devil commander had a little brain, he wouldn't do this! ”

The chief of staff immediately said: "I really welcome the devils to do this, it just gives us a chance to defeat them!" ”

"But we used to set up guerrilla units in these villages, but as soon as the maintenance committee was established, these guerrillas dispersed and withdrew. There are devils standing behind the maintenance committee, and there are devils who provide them with weapons and equipment to form an escort team, and our guerrillas are no opponent at all! The commissar immediately raised his concerns.

"At that time, the main force also went to fight these maintenance meetings, and it was easy to fight them. However, the movement of the main force is too great, and often as soon as the maintenance meeting is defeated, the devils will pounce on them. After a bloody battle, we often lose more than we lose! ”

Brigade Commander Chen shook his head and replied: "The guerrilla force I want to set up is different from the guerrilla force you imagined to be the political commissar. The guerrilla force I want to set up should be called a special combat team to be precise! ”

"Aren't the special combat detachments of each regiment already formed, let these special combat teams come out, every two or three special combat team members, and then draw a squad from the main force, with the best weapons and enough ammunition, form a team, and fight into the enemy-occupied area!"

"They are small and don't attract the attention of devils. However, the combat effectiveness is not bad. ”

"With such a special combat team behind enemy lines, I estimate that a combat detachment against the devils can be tied, and it will definitely be no problem to deal with those armed forces that are not even as good as the puppet army."

"Let them clean up these maintenance meetings, and they will definitely do!"

The chief of staff only hesitated for a moment and affirmed: "I agree with the brigade commander's method, the special operations detachments of several regiments are all trained by the special operations team of the brigade headquarters, and no one is better at dealing with these small-scale battles!" ”

"Then give it a try!" The commissar agreed.
