Chapter 41: Forced March

Yang.

For the fighters of the Independence Regiment, today is another hard and fulfilling day.

During this time, in addition to the wolf warrior squad, the commanders and fighters of the independent regiment only had one thing, training!

Because the company commander Sun Desheng was not there, Li Yunlong was worried that the veterans of the cavalry company would be lazy, so he personally came to the training ground of the cavalry company to supervise it.

"Dog, you're fucking lazy."

"Erhu, why did you fall off again?"

"Big Niu, don't patronize other people's little daughters-in-law, the saber is cutting your thigh."

Li Yunlong's shouting and scolding sounded with the laughter of the villagers, and in the midst of laughter, Zhao Gang and Lao Gou from the supply department walked over one after another.

"Lao Zhao, and Lao Gou."

Li Yunlong put his hands behind his back and asked, "Do you have something?" ”

Zhao Gang said: "Lao Gou, you can tell the head of the regiment first." ”

"Okay, then I'll talk about it first." Lao Gou was not hypocritical, and said with a bitter face, "Regiment leader, the soybeans in these ten miles and eight towns have been bought by the people from the brigade headquarters and the headquarters. ”

"I've been running to at least seven or eight villages these days,"

"In total, I only bought less than 1,000 catties of beans."

"But how can this little bean be enough, so you see, can you change it to bud grain?"

"And bud grain is a lot cheaper than soybeans, soybeans cost eight yuan a load, and bud grain only needs four yuan."

"No! You can't change buds! Li Yunlong flatly refused, "War horses must be fed with soybeans!" ”

Lao Gou said: "If you have to use soybeans, then I'm afraid you have to go to Xinzhuang fifty miles away to buy them?" Anyway, Chen Jiayu really can't buy it here. ”

"I don't care if you go to the new village or the old village to buy it."

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said: "Anyway, there is only one, if the military horses of the cavalry company lose their fat because of the supply of beans and affect their combat effectiveness, Lao Tzu will shoot you!" ”

Lao Gou left with a bitter face.

Li Yunlong asked Zhao Gang again: "Old Zhao, what's the matter with you?" ”

Zhao Gang said: "Lao Li, I'm always scared this day, the wolf warrior squad and the 1st platoon of cavalry won't have an accident, right?" ”

"Lao Zhao, aren't you intellectuals all materialists?" Li Yunlong joked, "How can you believe in these things that the gods are talking about?" ”

"I'm just worried."

Zhao Gang said: "I'm worried that something will happen to them, it's a snowy day." ”

"No, it won't." Li Yunlong said firmly, "Lao Zhao, don't worry, Xiao Wang is more clever, it's okay." ”

"But......" Zhao Gang was about to say more, when suddenly there was a rapid sound of horses' hooves behind him.

When Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang hurriedly looked back, they saw a horse rushing in from the entrance of the village at a gallop, because the speed was too fast, and the cavalry on horseback was almost attached to the horseback, so they couldn't see who it was?

It wasn't until the distance was close that the cavalry on horseback straightened up, and finally saw that it was Sun Desheng.

Sun Desheng really spared no horsepower this time, and he ran there in less than an hour from Tiger Bay to Yangcun for more than 70 miles.

Seeing Sun Desheng running back alone, and still looking 100,000 anxious, Zhao Gang immediately said in his heart that it was broken! Something must have happened!

Li Yunlong's heart also jumped suddenly.

No way? Nothing really happened, could it?

In the blink of an eye, Sun Desheng came to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.

Without waiting for the war horse to stop, Sun Desheng flew up and jumped off the horse, gasping for breath and saying urgently: "Regiment commander, political commissar, hurry, quickly assemble the main force of the regiment......"

Hearing this, Zhao Gang was so anxious that he almost cried.

"Company Commander Sun, you speak slowly." Zhao Gang said, "What's wrong?" ”

Li Yunlong can still maintain his composure, after all, he is an old revolutionary who has experienced a hundred battles.

"Sun Desheng, don't panic, the sky is falling and I, Li Yunlong, are on top of it."

"Something?" Sun Desheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and said in amazement, "What's wrong?" Who's in trouble? ”

Zhao Gang was also stunned, and asked blankly: "You rushed back in a hurry to ask for help from the regiment headquarters, isn't it because the wolf warrior team and the 1st platoon of cavalry have lost the battle?" ”

"Defeat?" Sun Desheng was stunned and said, "How can you lose the battle?" ”

After saying this, he continued: "We just won a big battle and ate the devil's cavalry squadron!" ”

"Eaten?" Zhao Gang was completely messy, and said, "Since you have all eaten the devil cavalry squadron, why are you running back in such a hurry?" ”

"Lao Zhao, didn't you listen to him?" Li Yunlong came back to his senses, "He came back to move troops and transfer the main force of the regiment." ”

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong asked Sun Desheng again: "Sun Desheng, has Xiao Wang found an opportunity?" ”

"It should be, but he didn't say much to me." Sun Desheng took a breath and said, "Just let me rush back to Yangcun as quickly as possible, and ask the main force of the regiment to rush to Tiger Bay at the speed of a forced march." ”

"Forced march?!" Li Yunlong said with a grim expression, "Then it's definitely right!" ”

After a pause, Li Yunlong yelled again: "Trumpeter, blow the trumpet, the whole group urgently assembles!" ”

The trumpeter, who was basking in the sun not far away, answered yes and hurriedly raised his trumpet and blew it vigorously.

Suddenly, the sound of the military horn sounded, and when the military horn was heard, the soldiers of the independent regiment who were originally scattered in all corners gathered in the direction of the entrance of the village.

Zhao Gang felt that this order was too hasty, and persuaded in a low voice: "Lao Li, do you want to verify it first?" ”

"What else is being verified?" Li Yunlong said, "You didn't listen to what Xiao Wang said? Let's forcibly march to Tiger Bay, it can be seen that the fighter plane is fleeting, and by the time the verification is finished, the cucumber dishes are already cold. ”

While he was talking, Kong Jie had already rushed over in stride, and said loudly: "Lao Li, why are you blowing the trumpet?" Is there any urgent combat mission? ”

Because of the defeat last time, the independent regiment is now the whole regiment for meritorious service.

Therefore, Kong Jie is more looking forward to fighting than Li Yunlong, and he can only turn over if he wins.

"There is a combat mission, and the fighter plane attacking the stronghold of Huting has appeared!" Li Yunlong took his shell gun from the guard Xiao Zhang and inserted it into his waist, and continued, "Lao Kong, you go with me, Lao Zhao, you stay at the regiment headquarters!" The 1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, 3rd Battalion, as well as all the directly subordinate teams and cavalry companies of the regimental headquarters were dispatched to rush to Tiger Bay by force. ”

"Tiger Bay?" Kong Jie was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't you just say the Tiger Pavilion stronghold?" ”

"I'll talk about it when we get there." Li Yunlong said, "Now I don't know very well. ”

While the two were talking, more than 1,000 commanders and fighters of the Independent Regiment had already assembled at the entrance of the village.

Zhao Gang originally wanted to persuade again, but he knew that he couldn't persuade him, so he simply didn't say anything more.

Li Yunlong stood in front of the queue, his two eyes glared, and the more than 1,000 commanders and fighters of the whole regiment immediately became silent.

The military situation was like fire, and Li Yunlong didn't say more than half a word of nonsense, and directly ordered: "All of them are there, first go to the supply office to get ammunition and dry food, and then rush to Tiger Bay at a forced marching speed!" ”

……

On the battlefield of Tiger Bay.

The time goes back to an hour ago.

Seeing the Japanese troops in the Huting stronghold rushing over with murderous vigour, the Eighth Route Army immediately scattered and fled.

The Japanese army quickly took control of the entire battlefield and set up a guard position on the surrounding hills, so as to prevent the earth from hiding on these hills and firing cold shots.

Maeda had already learned his lesson and did not rush into pursuit.

He didn't want to repeat the mistakes of Squad Kameda and Squadron Sato.

Until the mountains within two kilometers of the surrounding area were already under the control of the Japanese army, Maeda had finally walked into the valley under the escort of several orderlies.

As far as the eye could see, I saw that the valley was full of corpses.

There were only corpses, all guns, ammunition, sabers, steel helmets, and even cotton clothes missing.

All the Japanese soldiers wore only shirts and a crotch cloth, their feet were bare, and the cavalrymen's riding boots were stolen by those damned dirt roads.

In addition to the corpses of the Japanese soldiers, there are also the corpses of war horses.

Moreover, the corpses of many war horses have been disemboweled, and the internal organs and horse intestines have flowed out, and the air is filled with the disgusting smell of horse launches.

The squad leader asked, "Squadron leader, what do you want to do, disgusting us?" ”

"I'm afraid it's not going to be that boring." Maeda Tsuyoshi shook his head and said, "They should want to decompose and take away the corpses of these more than ninety war horses and eat meat." ”

"I see."

The team leader nodded and said, "Then we can't let them take the horse corpse." ”

"Of course." Maeda Tsuyoshi said in a deep voice, "If these more than 90 horse corpses are taken away by the Soil Eight Roads, enough for thousands of people to eat for a few months, the nutrition of the Soil Eight Roads will be improved, the physical fitness will become better, and they will be stronger and more powerful when fighting against the Imperial Army, which is a great disadvantage for the Imperial Army, so they must not be taken away." ”

The team leader nodded, then frowned again and said, "But with so many horse corpses, we can't transport them back?" ”

Maeda Gang's brows furrowed, this matter is really difficult, because there are nearly a hundred war horse corpses here, and each war horse is almost 800 catties, adding up to nearly 80,000 catties.

There are 500 of them here, and they all come to carry meat for nothing.

Everyone has to carry 160 pounds, isn't that a joke?

The key is that the dirt eight roads will not let them carry smoothly.
