Having made up his mind, the brigade commander personally drafted a telegram for the telegrapher to send to the headquarters immediately.

In Wangjiayu Village, the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

The boss, chief of staff, and division commander were staring at the map and discussing.

For the boss and the chief of staff, they have to take the overall situation into account and consider things from the overall situation.

At this time, not only the southeast of Shanxi, but also the 120th Division in the northwest of Shanxi and the Eighth Route Army of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region were also attacking the devils.

"Report to the chief, the 386 Brigade is urgent!"

A young telegraph operator from the headquarters pinched the telegram and walked over and gave a military salute.

It was the division commander who took the telegram from the telegraph operator, and he picked up the telegram and smiled after reading it: "Li Yunlong, this kid, is really idle. ”

The boss raised his head and said in a surprised tone: "It can't be that Chen Geng said on the telegram that Li Yunlong's kid is doing something again, right?" ”

"Not really." The division commander said with a smile, "Chen even wants to ask the headquarters to set up a stage and let Li Yunlong sing a play." ”

"Singing?" The chief of staff smiled, "Li Yunlong has changed his career to be a play?" Is it Sichuan opera or Peking opera? ”

The division commander smiled and said: "Li Yunlong wants to apply to the headquarters to delay the time when the 385th and 386th brigades capture the two county towns of Liao County and Yushe, and he leads a new regiment to deal with the Japanese reinforcements from Yangquan, and if he wins this battle, Li Yunlong will receive 15 tons of medicine." ”

15 tons of medicines?

The boss and the chief of staff glanced at each other, and saw a thick surprise in each other's eyes, and the two chiefs were a little short of breath.

Due to the long-term blockade of the base areas by the Japanese army, it was difficult for military supplies such as food, munitions, and medicines to enter the base areas.

Like weapons and ammunition, medicine is the most scarce military supplies of the Eighth Route Army at this time, and the Eighth Route Army also suffered a lot of casualties in this 100-regiment battle.

"My opinion is that for the sake of these 15 tons of medicine, this risk is worth taking."

The chief of staff's eyes narrowed, he had always been more optimistic about Li Yunlong, so he took the lead in expressing his support.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army in a wing was very strong, Li Yunlong and his new regiment were not vegetarians.

There was more than one Japanese wing defeated by Li Yunlong, and even the Black Island Cavalry Wing was completely annihilated by Li Yunlong.

The boss looked up at the division commander, and the division commander also nodded: "I agree with the chief of staff, Li Yunlong, this kid is better than a monkey, and he has the confidence that he can win." ”

The boss is a resolute character, and after making up his mind, he said categorically: "Okay, Chief of Staff, you immediately draft a telegram and send it to the 386 Brigade, saying that the headquarters and division headquarters agreed to set up a stage for Li Yunlong to sing, and instructed Li Yunlong to sing this play for me." ”

"Yes!" At that moment, the chief of staff quickly drafted a telegram, handed it to the telegrapher, and sent it.

……

As a reserve for the Yuliao Campaign, the new regiment was on standby a few kilometers away from the county seat of Yushe.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang, who had left the brigade headquarters, were studying the marching route of the devil's reinforcements.

Not long after, the brigade headquarters communications corps ran into the courtyard, ran to Li Yunlong, and gave a military salute.

"Commander Li, the brigade commander asked me to inform you that the headquarters has agreed to your combat request."

"The boss instructed Li Yunlong to sing this play beautifully!"

"Commander Cao of the brigade artillery regiment led 20 mountain artillery to cooperate with your unit."

Li Yunlong's expression was solemn when he heard this, and he returned a military salute: "Please go back and report to the brigade commander, just say that Li Yunlong will sing this play beautifully and never embarrass the brigade commander!" ”

Immediately, the brigade headquarters signal corps turned around and left, watching the back of the signal corps go away, the corners of Li Yunlong's mouth grinned slightly, and then quickly regained a cold look.

Taking a deep breath, he suddenly shouted: "Pass my order, the whole group gathers!" ”

Less than 10 seconds after the words fell, the bugle officer of the regiment headquarters blew violently with the rallying horn.

As the assembly call sounded, the commanders and fighters of the new regiment began to assemble rapidly in company and platoon units.

Zhang Dabiao and other battalion commanders and company commanders directly under the regiment also rushed to the regiment headquarters as soon as possible, and the rallying cry sounded, indicating that the combat mission must have come down.

Zhao Gang smiled at the corner of his mouth: "Lao Li, you still have a long view, if our regiment goes to attack the city, it will definitely not be able to win such a big battle." ”

"Of course." Li Yunlong's tone was proud, "Our old Li wants to get rich, who can stop me?" ”

Zhao Gang said: "The question now is, which way will the devil who came out of Yangquan go?" ”

"Come to Lao Zhao, look." Li Yunlong pointed to the map and said, "The devil rushed to help Liao County and Yushe, there are only two roads, either take the train from the Baijin Railway to the south, or from Pingding, Xiyang and then to Heshun along the highway, at this time the Baijin Railway is fighting, and it will not work at all by train, so the devil will definitely go along the road." ”

Zhao Gang thought for a moment and said, "It makes sense, then we have to rush to the north of Liao County at least before tonight." ”

Li Yunlong nodded: "That's right!" ”

During the conversation, a group of battalion and company commanders came to the courtyard where the regiment headquarters was located one after another, and looked at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang one after another.

"Report to the regiment commander, the troops have been assembled and can attack the county seat at any time!"

Zhang Dabiao glanced at several other battalion commanders and several company commanders, his eyes were sharp, and his fighting spirit was very high.

The rest of the battalion and company commanders looked at Li Yunlong one after another, gearing up, their eyes flashing, and they were implicitly expectant.

In the past, almost every time the new team played assists, but this time, as a reserve team, it is called a reserve team if it is good, and it is called a cold bench if it is ugly.

Listening to the roaring artillery in front, the battalion and company commanders had long thought about it, if they didn't kill the little devils, wouldn't they be blind to such good equipment in the new regiment?

"Who the fuck said we're going to attack the city?"

"Can you take a long-term view, these hundreds of little devils in the county town are enough for us to eat a new group?"

Li Yunlong snorted coldly.

When the first sentence was spoken, the battalion and company commanders felt a little pity.

There was no fight...

But when Li Yunlong said the second sentence, everyone's eyes darkened and lit up again as if the light bulb was on electricity.

It looks like there's a big battle!

Zhao Gang had been staring at the change in their expressions, and when he saw this scene, he suddenly couldn't cry or laugh.

What the fuck are these people?

was scolded, but Zhang Dabiao felt very comfortable in his heart, and asked tentatively: "Commander, what do you mean?" ”

Li Yunlong's tone became serious: "After receiving the information, more than half an hour ago, the devil troops who reinforced Liao County and Yushe had already set off from Yangquan, and the strength was a wing. ”

"The task of our new regiment is to go north of Liao County to stop this devil unit."

"But Lao Tzu doesn't regard it as a blocking mission, what do you think of it, I want to treat it as a war of annihilation."

"Think of this devil as a piece of fat in our mouths!"

"This time, the 20 mountain artillery guns of the brigade headquarters will cooperate with our regiment in combat, and the mountain artillery battalion and each battalion will bring me more shells."

"Hey, hey... With 40 mountain guns, a mountain artillery regiment and more than 40 mortars, Lao Tzu wants to let the devil taste the taste of being covered by artillery fire this time. ”

Li Yunlong's tone was full of fierceness.

There are 20 mountain guns in the brigade headquarters to cooperate with the operation, and the new regiment has its own 20, plus the 60-mm mortars equipped by each battalion, the total number of artillery pieces has reached 40, which is enough for two artillery regiments!

Although 10 60-mm mortars were looted by the brigade commander last time, with the addition of the previous ones, the new regiment now has more than 40 mortars, all equipped with infantry battalions and cavalry battalions, and even the county brigade is equipped with an artillery company.

"Yes!" The battalion and company commanders responded violently, and the smiles on their faces were almost closed.

Afterwards, Li Yunlong looked at Lu Yingjun, pointed to the map and said, "The task in your sword is still the same, set off in advance to reconnoiter the terrain along the road from Liaoxian to Heshun and then to Xiyang. ”

Lu Yingjun followed Li Yunlong and looked at the map, and his tone was confident: "Yes, our sword squadron guarantees to complete the task." ”

"Stay safe."

Li Yunlong looked satisfied.

"Thank you, Captain!"

Lu Yingjun, who was on the back of a tiger, gave a military salute, turned around and walked out.

Lu Yingjun is not as arrogant as Yamamoto Kazuki, as long as it is the task of the regiment commander, he will do any work, and the terrain can determine the outcome of a battle, so the reconnaissance mission is also very important.

The ambush of the Japanese tank wing and the shelling of the Taiyuan airfield were fought twice, and it was because the reconnaissance mission of the Sword Squadron was done well that the new regiment was able to win the battle.

The commander of Cao San's company rushed to join the new regiment with 20 mountain guns.

The two of them were originally old comrades-in-arms of the Fourth Front Army and were very familiar with each other.

In the past, during the Red Army, Cao Sanlian played with artillery, and he was also a sharpshooter.

Most of the guns and shells of the 386 Brigade Artillery Regiment were brought in by Li Yunlong, and Cao Sanlian did not have the slightest opinion on cooperating with the new regiment, and was even willing to do so.

At this time, the city wall of Yushe County had been blasted open by mountain artillery.

After the 20 mountain guns of the artillery regiment were transferred, if an emergency occurred, the brigade commander would not be worthwhile at all, because he still had 10 mountain artillery pieces from the two regiments of Ding Wei and Kong Jie combined.

At that moment, the new regiment marched north along the Yuliao Highway with the artillery regiment of Cao Sanlian.

The reinforced concrete stronghold on the Yuliao Highway was uprooted by a new regiment a few months ago, and the devil has not repaired it.

The troops were unimpeded and headed all the way north.

The devil's stronghold on the Heliao Highway was also uprooted by a regiment of the 385 Brigade and a column of decisive death with the mountain artillery of the division headquarters.

After passing the county seat of Liaoxian County, about 40 kilometers ahead is the county seat of Heshun.

Therefore, Li Yunlong could only do it to the devil reinforcements on the Heliao Highway.

The distance between Yangquan and the county seat of Liao County is 120 kilometers, and it takes two days for the devil to arrive, and Li Yunlong has plenty of time.

There were also guerrillas along the way who used mine warfare and sparrow warfare to harass them, and the devils came even more slowly.

The 385 Brigade received an order to delay the capture of the county seat.

At this time, the battle of the 385th Brigade to attack Liao County continued.

Placing the troops 10 kilometers north of Liao County, Lu Yingjun had already returned from completing the reconnaissance mission with the Sword Squadron.

Later, Li Yunlong reconnoitred the Heliao Highway with the Sword Squadron.

After the reconnaissance was completed, Li Yunlong had a bottom in his heart, and called the battalion company commanders, Zhao Gang, and Cao Sanlian together to improve the battle plan.
