"In that case, let's do what the Chief's Department orders." Chu Yunfei shook his head a little wistfully and said.

After all, as a soldier, if he was not forced to do so, he didn't want to choose to retreat at all, but the enemy's strength was too strong, although the 358th Regiment was a reinforced regiment, but in front of the menacing devils, at most it was a mantis arm as a car, and it could not play any role at all.

He didn't want the troops he brought up with his own hands to be eaten like this, at this time, there was no other way but to retreat, he didn't have the confidence at all, and he took a regiment of troops to fight the devil hard.

"Yes, Tuanza, I'm going to gather troops." Fang Ligong heard Chu Yunfei's words, agreed, and then turned around and walked out of the room to gather the troops, for fear that Chu Yunfei's brain would be hot and regretful.

"Brother Yunlong, ask for more blessings." Looking at the back of Fang Ligong leaving, Chu Yunfei said to himself.

Although Chu Yunfei admitted that Li Yunlong's new regiment was very strong in combat effectiveness, the devil's combat effectiveness was not weak, and he also transferred the strength of two divisions from the Kwantung Army, which was known as the flower of the army, so Chu Yunfei was optimistic about Li Yunlong at all.

Soon, under Chu Yunfei's order, Fang Ligong asked the 358 regiment to gather urgently, and then quickly evacuated his defense area.

However, when they evacuated, they did not take away the people in their defense area, nor did they notify them, and quietly evacuated, this is their regular operation, after all, with so many people, the movement will definitely be very large. His traces will definitely be discovered by someone with a heart, which Chu Yunfei does not want to see.

It's just that although Chu Yunfei didn't make a noise, he still didn't hide it from Li Yunlong.

"Regiment commander, the scouts at the front have sent a message that the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army has been evacuated, and now their station is empty." A guard hurriedly ran into the new regimental headquarters and said to Li Yunlong, who was studying the map.

"What, Chu Yunfei ran away?" Li Yunlong was also shocked when he heard the news, although Li Yunlong didn't expect Chu Yunfei to help, but he didn't expect him to run away, so he felt a little surprised when he heard the news.

"Yes, regiment commander, the investigators have already determined, and there is no one in Chu Yunfei's station at present." The guard said to Li Yunlong again.

Hearing the guard's words, Li Yunlong frowned, although Chu Yunfei's station had been withdrawn from Ping'an County before, but he did not go far, the new station was on the edge of Ping'an County, if the station of the 358th Regiment was occupied by devils, it would definitely be a threat to my new regiment in the future.

So Li Yunlong thought for a while and said, "Go, call me to find the political commissar, and say that I have something important to discuss with him." Li Yunlong said to the guard soldier.

"Yes, regimental commander, I'll call the political commissar." Hearing Li Yunlong's words, the guard agreed, then turned around and walked out.

After a while, the guards and soldiers brought Zhao Gang in.

"I said Lao Li, if you are in such a hurry, you can't wait for a while." Zhao Gang entered the room, sat down, drank a sip of water, and then looked up at Li Yunlong and asked.

Because now the people in the entire new regiment defense area are mobilized and evacuated by him, Zhao Gang is very busy now, and he hardly has time to rest.

"Lao Zhao, isn't there an emergency, it's like this, Chu Yunfei ran away with the 358 regiment, and now their station is empty, the purpose of I called you here is to let you mobilize the people in the 358 regiment defense area and evacuate with them." Li Yunlong said to Zhao Gang, and told him the purpose of calling him over.

"What, Chu Yunfei ran away? Lao Li, is there a mistake in the intelligence, I don't think Chu Yunfei is that kind of person? Hearing Li Yunlong's words, Zhao Gang felt that something might be wrong, he had also met Chu Yunfei a few times, and his impression of Chu Yunfei in his heart was not bad, this person was not only educated, but also went to a military school, Duan Ran would not do such a thing.

Even if you want to leave, you have to inform them, after all, the two sides are also friendly forces now.

"You don't want to excuse him, the investigators have determined that the garrison of the 358th Regiment is now empty, and this is not what it is. The main problem now is to evacuate the people in the area where he was released, and they must not fall into the hands of devils. Li Yunlong said in a heavy tone, although he still didn't want to believe it, but this was the truth.

But if you run, let's run, Li Yunlong can understand it after thinking about it, after all, Chu Yunfei is not stupid, a man is a man, but in some aspects it is a little worse, in the face of an invincible enemy, in order to preserve his strength, running away is not this way out.

And it's not all bad if Chu Yunfei left, in this way, Li Yunlong doesn't have to worry about the 358 regiment stabbing in the back, although Li Yunlong believes that Chu Yunfei can't do such a thing, but he also has to take precautions, after all, the 358 regiment is not Chu Yunfei alone.

Hearing Li Yunlong's sure words, Zhao Gang said: "Okay, I'll go to the defense area of the 358th Regiment to mobilize the people and see if they are willing to evacuate with us, but you also know that after all, we belong to different factions, and the people there may not believe us, so you have to be prepared for this." ”

This is no wonder that Zhao Gang thinks too much, after all, the two sides have different methods of ruling the common people in their respective jurisdictions, so Zhao Gang wants to give Li Yunlong a good defensive shot in advance to prevent Li Yunlong from getting angry with himself when the time comes.

"Lao Zhao, I know all this, you explain the matter clearly to the local people, as for whether you can go or not, then let them go, if you are willing to go, our new group will cover their food, clothing, housing and transportation, if you are not willing to go, then we can't help it, let it be fate." Li Yunlong sighed and said.

Of course he understood what Zhao Gang meant, but if they had to stay, he couldn't help it, after all, he couldn't tie them up.

"Okay, then I'll arrange it now." Zhao Gang was about to go out after speaking.

"Wait a minute, Lao Zhao, let's let the monk go with you, I'm afraid that the situation is complicated, safety first, you are the political commissar of our regiment, there are still a lot of things waiting for you to arrange, you can't have any accidents." Li Yunlong was not at ease, so he stopped Zhao Gang and said.

"No need Lao Li, where is it not the territory of devils, what accidents can I have, besides, I am not a scholar with no force at all." Zhao Gang said with some disapproval, thinking that Li Yunlong was making a big fuss, it was an extraordinary time, the manpower in the regiment was not rich, and as the only elite team in the new regiment, Wei Dayong and they still had a lot of tasks to do.

"Lao Zhao, you can't say that, it's better to be careful when you go out, and let the monk arrange a few people to follow you, so that I can rest assured." Li Yunlong said solemnly to Zhao Gang.

Seeing Li Yunlong say this, Zhao Gang didn't dare to refuse, so he could only nod in agreement, because Zhao Gang knew that Li Yunlong did it for his good.

After Zhao Gang left, Li Yunlong said to Huzi who was standing guard at the door: "Huzi, go, send someone to inform the independent regiment and the new second regiment of the retreat of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, and let Lao Kong and Lao Ding pay attention." ”

"Yes, Commander, I'll send someone to inform Commander Kong and Commander Ding." Hearing Li Yunlong's command, Huzi said yes and turned around and walked out of the room.

"Tell the brigade commander a report on our situation here, and explain it to them, so as not to cause some unnecessary disputes later." After Huzi went out, Li Yunlong said to the staff officer on the side.

"Knowing the regimental commander, I'll go now." The staff officer also got up and walked out of the room when he heard Li Yunlong's words.

Li Yunlong arranged things and went to busy with his own affairs, because it didn't matter whether Chu Yunfei was there or not, or whether his 358 regiment helped or not, it didn't matter much to Li Yunlong, after all, everything had to rely on himself, and his fate could only be assured if he was in his own hands.

…………

At the headquarters of the First Army in Taiyuan, Hideyoshi Kusuyama was reporting to Yoshio Shinozuka on the preparations for the operation.

"Your Excellency Commander, now that all the participating units have been assembled, they can launch an attack on the new 1st Regiment, the 2nd Regiment and the Independent Regiment of the 386th Brigade in the southwest of Shanxi at any time, and the combat materials have also been prepared." Kusuyama Hideyoshi reported to Yoshio Shinozuka.

The face was indescribably excited, after all, this time so many troops were dispatched at once, although it was a bit of a feeling of cannon fighting mosquitoes, but after all, this was a new regiment that had repeatedly made their first army suffer defeat before, even if it was not too important.

"Yo Xi." Hearing Kusuyama Hideyoshi's words, Yoshio Shinozuka responded very happily.

"Nothing happened in between, did you?" Yoshio Shinozuka asked again.

"Except for a few transport vehicles that were blown up by the Eighth Road when transporting supplies, there were no other losses, everything was normal." Kusuyama Hideyoshi replied to Yoshio Shinozuka.

In fact, after Brigade Commander Chen learned of the devil's actions, he began to send troops to block the devil's material transport team, but Nanshan Hideyoshi had already prepared, and the transportation routes arranged were all planned to bypass the defense area of the Eighth Route Army.

And the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army didn't care about the devil's transport vehicle passing through their own defense area, just like they had discussed with the devil before.

It is always inconvenient to carry out activities in other people's territory, and it is impossible to go deep behind enemy lines, after all, the brigade commander is also afraid that the devils will dig holes for themselves and fish.

"Nanshanjun, the two divisions transferred from the northeast this afternoon are about to arrive, they are the 21st Division and the 22nd Division, you go to the Taiyuan Railway Station to pick it up, and then arrange for the soldiers to repair for two days, you can attack the 386 Brigade, this time we must destroy them all, especially Li Yunlong's new regiment, otherwise this army will definitely become our henchmen." Yoshio Shinozuka instructed Hideyoshi Kusuyama.

It's no wonder that Yoshio Shinozuka made a fuss, after all, during this time, Li Yunlong led a new group, and his strength grew too rapidly, which had already caused him uneasy.

"Don't worry, Your Excellency Commander, with the addition of the 21st Division and the 22nd Division, it will be very easy to eliminate Li Yunlong's new regiment." Nanshan Hideyoshi said with a smile, after all, this is the strength of two divisions or the Kwantung Army, known as the flower of the army, if he can't even take a little Li Yunlong, then he just goes home and hugs the child.

"By the way, Your Excellency Commander, we got the news that the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army has retreated, do you think we want to find out the meaning of him and eliminate him?" Kusuyama Hideyoshi thought of something, so he spoke again.

"Oh, retreated." Yoshio Shinozuka was a little surprised, he had also heard of this unit, and knew that the regiment commander Chu Yunfei was different from other officers of the Jin Sui Army, and was a stubborn Japanese carrier.

"Hayi, the 358th Regiment began to retreat today, and it was very fast." Kusuyama Hideyoshi spoke.

Hearing Nanshan Hideyoshi's words, Yoshio Shinozuka smiled, and didn't care about Chu Yunfei's departure: "It seems that he is afraid that we will clean up with him by the way, since he has self-knowledge, then forget it this time, at present, we are still focusing on eliminating the 386 Brigade and Li Yunlong." ”

"Then their defense area, should we send troops in?" Kusuyama Hideyoshi asked.

Hearing Nanshan Hideyoshi's words, Yoshio Shinozuka thought for a while and said: "No, now we still focus on destroying the Eighth Route Army, don't go to the extraneous branches, and wait for the 386 Brigade and Li Yunlong to be eliminated, and then it's not too late to occupy it." ”

"Hayi, I know what to do, Your Excellency, Commander."

"Okay, let's go down if there's nothing to do, as the military commander of this war, there are still a lot of things waiting for you to arrange." Yoshio Shinozuka said with a wave of his hand.

"Ha Yi, please rest assured, Your Excellency the Commander, I will arrange these things." After saying that, Kusuyama Hideyoshi turned around and left the headquarters. After all, he still has a lot to do.

In the afternoon, the forces of the two divisions of the Kwantung Army arrived in Taiyuan, and Kusunoyama Hideyoshi settled them down, and immediately convened a military meeting.

On the side of the Eighth Route Army, whether it was Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, or the brigade commander, they all received the news that the Kwantung Army had arrived in Taiyuan. So he hurried up his actions and prepared to meet the enemy.

Two days later, the Kwantung Army of the two divisions deployed its troops to the vicinity of Anhua County, Heyuan County, and Ping'an County in accordance with the pre-planned operational plan, preparing to attack the hostile forces in the three counties.

The arrival of the Kwantung Army was three times happier than Muto, because the defense of the three county towns was completed by their 69th Division, although he communicated with the new regiment privately and paid some price in exchange for the two sides living in peace.

But this is always a last resort, after all, no one wants to leave their fate in the hands of others. Before, it was a last resort, but now the situation is different.

"Your Excellency Division Commander, the two divisions of the Kwantung Army from Taiyuan have arrived, and it is estimated that it will not be long before they will launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army, and we can finally take this opportunity to ask the new regiment to threaten us." Muto's triple adjutant said to him with some joy, at this time his confidence has blossomed, since the last time they were besieged by the new regiment of the county seat, they have been panicking, afraid that Li Yunlong will not know when to attack the county again.
