"Don't worry, Captain."

"Okay, let's go." Li Yunlong ordered.

"Yes." Then several people returned to their unit and led the soldiers in the direction of Dagu Town.

On the side of Dagu Town, Zhang Dabiao had already imposed martial law on him in accordance with Li Yunlong's order, and the people who got the news were also waiting on both sides of the street early.

And Li Yunlong, on his side, also rushed to Dagu Town after more than an hour's march.

When Zhang Dabiao saw Li Yunlong coming with the troops, he hurriedly greeted him: "Report to the regiment commander, please instruct after all the preparations are completed, report to Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, Zhang Dabiao saluted Li Yunlong after speaking."

"Let's get started." Li Yunlong replied with a military salute and said.

Then Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang rode horses, with the second battalion, the third battalion, as well as the cavalry company and artillery company, and marched in the direction of the main street of Dagu Town.

The soldiers, on the other hand, were proud and energetic, following in the footsteps of Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang with neat steps.

The soldiers of the 1st Battalion maintained order on both sides of the street to prevent any emergencies from happening.

At this time, the common people walked out of their homes and gathered on both sides of the street, there were not many people at first, but when Li Yunlong and they arrived, both sides of the street were already surrounded by crowds.

Originally, the common people thought that there was nothing to see, after all, in their inherent impression, Tubalu was a group of troops with equipment leakage detection and ragged clothes. So they didn't expect much from this parade.

But when Li Yunlong came over with his troops, it was a bit unexpected for them, especially the cavalry company and artillery company that followed behind as the finale.

The villagers thought to themselves, when did the equipment of the Tuba Road be so good, not only were the clothes neat and clean, but everyone had a long rifle, not only that, but there were cavalry and artillery in the back.

Seeing this scene, there began to be a commotion among the common people, followed by a mountain of cheers.

The whole parade lasted about an hour, but the results were excellent.

Now everyone's support for the new regiment is unprecedentedly high, and the place where they signed up to join the army in Dagu Town is even more crowded, and many young people of school age want to come over to join the Eighth Route Army and join the new regiment.

Zhang Dabiao couldn't stop laughing when he saw this situation, according to what he said before, these people will all be classified into their first battalion, and the strength of their first battalion will definitely improve a lot at that time.

After the parade was over, the second and third battalions rushed to the village where they were stationed. The artillery company was stationed and the first battalion was stationed in Dagu Town, while the cavalry company returned to Zhaojiayu.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Zhang Dabiao were talking in the command room of Dagu Town.

"Da Biao, this time the reputation of our new regiment has been played out in Dagu Town, I guess the devil should also get the news, you must take strict precautions here, you must not be careless, you must report any situation in time, in addition, the telephone line will be connected in two days, if you have anything to decide, you can report to the regiment headquarters." Li Yunlong instructed Zhang Dabiao.

"Yes, regiment commander, please rest assured, our first battalion will ensure that Dagu Town will be guarded." Zhang Dabiao assured Li Yunlong.

"Okay, I'm relieved, but there is still this matter you have to pay attention to, that is, the issue of policy publicity, I and the political commissar also saw it just now, many people go to the recruitment point to sign up, recruit training must be done well, and this time, let's take a lot of food from Dagu Town, take out a part of it, and distribute it to the villagers who are in difficulty at home." Li Yunlong said to Zhang Dabiao again.

"The regiment commander is right, our Eighth Route Army is a people's army, and the relationship with the villagers must be handled well, which is very important, we must not have conflicts with the villagers, and at the same time, we must also tell our soldiers that we were used to staying in the village before, but now we are in the town, and there are markets, trades, and restaurants in the town. This point must be clearly understood by the fighters, and the red line must not be crossed. Zhao Gang also instructed Zhang Dabiao.

After all, this is the first time they have stationed troops in the town, and if there is a conflict, it will have a great impact on their future development.

"What the political commissar said is right, if anyone dares to oppress the people, then don't blame me Li Yunlong for not being emotional."

"Regiment commander, political commissar, you can rest assured that such a thing will never happen in our new regiment, if there is, you two don't need to speak, I will personally collapse him." Zhang Dabiao assured Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang again.

"Okay, since that's the case, then it's okay for me and the political commissar to go back to Zhaojiayu." After speaking, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang left the command room and rushed in the direction of Zhao Jiayu.

………

And at this time in the 358th Regiment of the Central Army.

"Tuanzao, according to the latest news, Dagu Town has been occupied by the Eighth Route Army." Fang Ligong hurriedly came to the regiment headquarters and reported to Chu Yunfei.

Hearing Fang Ligong's words, Chu Yunfei frowned and said, "Oh, Dagu Town was occupied by the Eighth Road, what about the guerrillas?" With just those few broken guns, you can also beat away the devils stationed in Dagu Town. Brother Meritorious Service, don't you joke with me again. ”

"Tuanzuo, this is true, now the Eighth Route Army has occupied Dagu Town, and you also know the military commander of this army, it is Li Yunlong of the new regiment." Fang Ligong explained to Chu Yunfei.

"Li Yunlong, when did he come to southwest Jinxi, when did this happen?" Chu Yunfei became even more curious after hearing Fang Ligong's words.

"Tuanza, I don't know the specific situation very well, but according to the report of the intelligence officer, it is the matter of the past two days. As for why Li Yunlong appeared here, it should be a matter of moving defenses, didn't we receive a report from the Second Theater Commander's Department a few days ago, saying that three regiments of troops from the 386th Brigade of the 129th Division had moved their defenses, and eighty percent of them had come to our side. Fang Ligong thought for a while and said.

"If that's the case, then it makes sense, but why was Dagu Town beaten down by Li Yunlong so quickly, where did the devil station a squadron of troops, and how did he Li Yunlong do it." Chu Yunfei walked back and forth in the regiment headquarters and said to himself.

"Tuanza, the intelligence officers are still investigating the specific situation."

"Then let them figure out this matter as soon as possible, it is impossible for the attack on Dagu Town to be so big that no news will circulate at all."

"Yes." Fang Ligong heard Chu Yunfei's words and turned around and walked out of the regiment headquarters to arrange the things he had explained, while Chu Yunfei continued to sit down. He secretly said in his heart: "Brother Yunlong, it seems that the day when you and I will meet is not far away." ”

"Sun Ming, go check the location of Li Yunlong's regimental headquarters, and wait for you and me to visit." Chu Yunfei said to Adjutant Sun Ming on the side.

"Yes, Tuanza. I'll do it right away. Hearing Chu Yunfei's words, Sun Ming walked out of the regiment headquarters and arranged for someone to investigate.

And on the side of Ping'an County, in the division headquarters of the 69th Division.

"Nani, what you said is true?" Muto asked Mikajima Mikajima.

"Yes, Your Excellency, Division Commander. According to the information sent back by the intelligence officers, Li Yunlong, the commander of the new regiment, and Zhao Gang, the political commissar of the new regiment, have just led their troops to hold a military parade in Dagu Town, and even threatened to hold Dagu Town and contend with us. However, the equipment of their troops is indeed okay, not only a 38 big cover per man, but also a cavalry company and an artillery company, equipped with our mortars and infantry guns, if it is not a military uniform, I suspect that this is our army. Nakajima said to Muto Sanpao.

"If the intelligence is true, then our military plan to recapture Dagu Town will have to be re-planned." Muto Sangu stood up and said to Nakajima Feng: "They are the only group, did the other two groups also come to us?" ”

"Ha Yi, the independent regiment and the new second regiment have also arrived at us, their three regiments are arranged in a zigzag pattern, if we want to take action, I am afraid that the strength of a division is a little insufficient." Nakajima Feng also explained the information of the new second regiment and the independent regiment to Muto three times.

"Immediately report our situation here to the headquarters, and ask His Excellency the Commander to see what arrangements he has for our next move." Muto said to Nakajima Feng three times, after all, he suddenly had three regiments of troops here, and there was a powerful new regiment among them, which made his defensive pressure instantly increase.

"Hayi, I'll send a telegram to His Excellency the Commander right now and tell him the information we have here." Nakajima Feng said to Muto Mikaku, and walked out of the office directly after speaking, and went to send a telegram to the headquarters.

As soon as Li Yunlong and Zhao returned to Zhaojiayu, they had just sat down and had a cup of tea when they saw the telegraph operator walk in with a telegram.

"Report to the regiment commander, the brigade commander called to inquire about our situation here." With that, the telegraph operator put a piece of paper on the table.

Zhao Gang took the telegram and looked at it, and then said: "Lao Li, the brigade commander asked us if there were any difficulties here, and also asked about the situation of the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment. ”

On the side of the three regiments, only the new regiment had a telegraph, and the brigade headquarters was not as close as before, so if the brigade commander wanted to contact the new second regiment and the new first regiment, he could only go through Li Yunlong.

"Wait a minute, you send a telegram back to the brigade commander, just say that our new regiment is not in difficulty, as for the independent regiment and the new second regiment, since Lao Ding and Lao Kong have not sent us news, then their side must be going well, otherwise they will definitely ask us for help." What to say, you think about it yourself, anyway, this matter is up to you, and I don't understand. Li Yunlong thought for a while and said, Zhao Gang said.

"Lao Li, do you want to report that kind of thing to the brigade commander?" Zhao Gang raised his head and looked at Li Yunlong and said.

"Don't tell the brigade elder about this, after all, we don't know if it will be successful or not, so let's wait for this season's grain harvest to talk to the front." Li Yunlong was afraid that he would oppose it if he said it, so it was better to wait for the results to come out. In this way, he wasted his tongue and explained to the above, and it was better to speak with facts.

"Okay, that's it, I'm going to send a telegram to the brigade headquarters." Saying that, Zhao Gang walked out of the regiment headquarters and followed the telegraph operator to report to the brigade commander.

……………

On the side of the 358th Regiment, Sun Ming had also inquired about the situation of the new regiment, and was reporting to Chu Yunfei at this time.

"The regimental seat has been investigated clearly, and the new regimental headquarters is now stationed in Zhaojiayu." After Sun Ming finished speaking, he took the map and drew a circle on Zhao Jiayu's location.

And Chu Yunfei looked at the location of Zhao Jiayu on the map, thought for a moment and said: "No wonder Li Yunlong wants to take down Dagu Town, the location of Dagu Town is too important to him, if this place is occupied by devils, once there is an emergency, it will definitely cut off his territory." ”

"Sun Ming, three people prepare horses. , Wait a minute, we will go to the station of the new regiment to meet Li Yunlong for a while. ”

"Tuanzao, will it seem too abrupt to go this time, after all, we went last time in the name of a military expedition group, and this time we .........." Before Sun Ming finished speaking, he was interrupted by Chu Yunfei.

"Let's be neighbors with the new group, how can we not meet when friends come, don't worry about preparing horses. By the way, tell the chief of staff about our going to the new regiment, in case there is an emergency that can't find us. Chu Yunfei instructed Sun Ming.

Hearing Chu Yunfei's words, Sun Ming shook his head and then went to carry out the order.

After everything was arranged, Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming rode in the direction of Zhao Jiayu.

"Report to the head of the regiment, the head of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army Chu asks to see you." Huzi came to Li Yunlong's room and shouted at Li Yunlong.

"Chu Yunfei, why is he here." Li Yunlong said to himself when he heard Huzi's words, after all, he and Chu Yunfei had met once, and the two did not have anything to do with each other.

"Lao Li, what do you say Chu Yunfei is paying attention to, but he came to see us at this time." Zhao Gang asked Li Yunlong, he felt that Chu Yunfei was a little ill-intentioned this time.

"Who knows, I'll talk about it when I see it, people are here anyway, and I'll know what to pay attention to when I see you later." Li Yunlong waved his hand and asked Huzi to invite people in.

"Brother Yunlong and Brother Zhao, I haven't seen you for a while, but the two of you are good." Chu Yunfei took Sun Ming to the house, arched his hand to Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, and said.

"Hey, what's so good, let's get by. can't be compared with you Captain Chu, you have to rely on yourself for everything. Li Yunlong complained and said to Chu Yunfei: "Come, Brother Chu and Brother Sun, hurry up and sit down, let's sit down and say anything if you have anything to say." As he spoke, Huzi took two chairs and handed them to the two.

Chu Yunfei sat down and said, "Brother Yunlong, you don't mean enough, you don't even shout and say hello when you come to the brother's territory, if I didn't know that your new group has defeated Dagu Town, I don't know that you are here, brother." ”

"Haha, Brother Yunfei, where are you talking, brother, I just arrived, and I haven't even settled down in a place to live, how can I rush to see you, if this is misunderstood, brother, I just have eight mouths and can't explain it clearly." Li Yunlong smiled and said to Chu Yunfei.
