Lu Yingjun hit the target after saying in the high-power walkie-talkie, and then put down the walkie-talkie.

After stopping firing, Zhang Dabiao used a low-power walkie-talkie to order a series of presses.

Soon, the soldiers of the first company burst into the stronghold with submachine guns, and no shots rang out, indicating that the devil puppet army had all been killed.

Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and the commanders couldn't help but smile.

Killing a devil's stronghold with one shot is not a joke, and when the devils sweep and attack in the future, as long as it is used properly, the damage brought by a heavy artillery battalion to the devil's puppet army will be immeasurable.

Although the city wall has not been hit with armor-piercing shells and high-explosive shells, according to Li Yunlong's estimate, the kind of city wall like the county town is a little stronger than the paper paste in front of this 150-mm heavy gun.

Even a city wall like Taiyuan's, a few cannons can open a gap.

If you had fought Taiyuan last time, there would have been this 150 mm heavy gun, which would have blasted dozens of gaps in a city wall in one day.

With this 150-mm heavy gun, there is no city in Shanxi that cannot be captured by a new regiment.

Everyone's eyes burned, thinking that it would be better for the devils to start sweeping and attacking the new group now, so that the little devils could appreciate the firepower of the 150mm heavy gun.

Looking at the powerful destructive power created by this heavy artillery, Li Yunlong breathed a long sigh of relief and felt refreshed.

At this time, Grand Master Li's phobia of insufficient firepower in his heart has finally been healed for the most part, but it has not yet healed.

In his opinion, if you want to kill more enemies in the war, greatly reduce your own casualties, and under the premise of correct strategy and tactics, you need to pile up more firepower.

The more firepower, the better.

Caliber is justice, range is truth!

The artillery bombardment is best washed with heavy artillery shells, air support requires carpet bombing by aerial bombs, and the air defense sky is covered with a rain of bullets and shells, so that the enemy's planes have nowhere to hide.

In the future, we must use this 150mm heavy gun to wash the ground with shells for the Japanese army.

Although the number of heavy artillery is not enough now, it will definitely be enough in the future.

Grand Master Li's eyes were full of expectation.

Zhang Dabiao asked: "Regiment leader, can you launch an attack on Dagu Town?" ”

Three infantry and artillery companies of the 1st Battalion surrounded Dagu Town, but did not begin an immediate attack.

Li Yunlong came back to his senses and said: "Immediately launch an attack on Dagu Town, after capturing Dagu Town, your first battalion will be stationed in Dagu Town, monitor the devils in the direction of Anhua County, and quickly hold the telephone line with the regiment headquarters to maintain contact with the regiment headquarters." ”

Although Dagu Town is about ten kilometers away from Zhaojiayu Village, it is within the call range of high-power walkie-talkies.

However, the high-power walkie-talkie has been turned on, which consumes a lot of batteries, even if Boss Chen can reimburse the battery, but it can't be wasted at will, so the high-power walkie-talkie is mainly used in wartime.

"Yes!" Zhang Dabiao picked up the low-power walkie-talkie and ordered.

Soon, some gunshots were heard in the direction of Dagu Town.

After ordering the first battalion to clean up and erase the craters and traces left by the heavy artillery shelling, Li Yunlong led the people back to Zhaojiayu without waiting for the battle of Dagu Town to end.

Although it is cool to occupy Dagu Town and kill the devil's stronghold with one shot, the heavy artillery still needs to be kept secret.

And there are only a few devils and traitors left in Dagu Town, and they capture Dagu Town with the combat strength of a battalion, basically holding a handle.

The location of Dagu Town is very important to the regiment headquarters, it must be in the hands of the new regiment, if it is in the hands of the devils, the devils take Dagu Town as a stronghold, and they can reach Li Yunlong's regiment headquarters with only a surprise attack in the middle of the night.

Returning to Zhaojiayu Village, Li Yunlong received a telegram from the headquarters with a copy to the brigade headquarters.

The new regiment was changed to a unit directly under the headquarters, and in the future, the new regiment will not be called the new regiment of the 386 brigade, but the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong, who saw the contents of this telegram, was still a little incredulous and a little uncomfortable, and asked the telegraph operator to send a telegram to the 386 Brigade, asking the brigade commander if he didn't want the new regiment, and asked the brigade commander to tell the headquarters that the new regiment would continue to be in the 386 Brigade.

Li Yunlong still hoped that the new regiment would continue to be subordinate to the 386 Brigade.

Because the brigade commander treated him well, the brigade commander gave him a pocket when he made a mistake, and left him a little bit every time he fought in the autumn breeze, even if Li Yunlong hid some weapons and ammunition behind his back, the brigade commander would not say anything.

However, the brigade commander replied quickly and told him to carry out the orders of the headquarters.

Seeing the brigade commander's reply, Li Yunlong knew that this matter was already settled.

I made up my mind from the bottom of my heart, and after I made a batch of heavy artillery in business next time, I would send a few heavy artillery pieces to the brigade commander from the heavy artillery given to the new regiment by the general part.

At this point, Li Yunlong put away other thoughts, and now it is the king to develop and grow the new group.

Everything else is imaginary.

He knocked melon seeds and peanuts while taking out the map and studying it.

The melon seeds and peanuts were sent by Uncle Zhang from Zhaojiayu Village, and Li Yunlong ordered the guards to give Uncle Zhang some rice, white flour and canned meat to express his gratitude and serve as rent.

Now the house of the regiment headquarters is Uncle Zhang's, and Uncle Zhang's son is a soldier of the 120th Division of the Eighth Route Army, and he followed the large army to the Jizhong Military Region.

At present, the territory assigned by the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army to the new regiment is mainly in the three counties of Ping'an, Anhua and Heyuan, and in addition, Chu Yunfei's territory is in the Dagushan area of Anhua County.

But the new group has just arrived, and the new group of these territories has not yet had time to control and integrate.

However, Li Yunlong already understood the general situation of the surrounding counties, and in addition to the county seat, Dagushan, and the town, almost every village had militia of the Eighth Route Army, and even guerrillas and district brigades.

Typical guerrilla zone.

Now we are waiting for the 1,000 tons of weapons and ammunition to be in place to arm these militias and guerrillas.

However, the existing guerrillas and militia are not sufficient, and they have to be recruited from among the young and strong people.

In order to let these young and strong people actively participate and recruit enough 15,000 people in a short period of time, in addition to publicity, they must also show their achievements.

Although the capture of Taiyuan and the killing of Yoshio Shinozuka are very eye-catching achievements, the common people in the deep mountains have never been to Taiyuan, and many people will think that the Eighth Route Army is bragging.

However, as long as the new regiment can capture a certain surrounding county, within a few days, the people of the surrounding counties will know.

Zhao Gang walked in, and after Li Yunlong told him about the plan to attack a certain county seat, Zhao Gang expressed his support.

With the current strength of the new regiment, it is not difficult to attack the county seat.

"Then Lao Li, which county are you going to fight?" Zhao Gang asked.

"Anhua County, it's the closest to us." Li Yunlong tapped his finger on the county seat of Anhua on the map a few times.

"Or, take down all the surrounding Anhua, Heyuan and Ping'an counties?" Zhao Gang said with a moving expression.

"If you want to do something, just do something big." Zhao Gang then said, "There are not many devils in these counties, and there is at most one squadron of devils in each county, plus a brigade of puppet soldiers. ”

"Now that Yoshio Shinozuka has been killed by us, the new commander of the First Army will definitely not arrive in Taiyuan so soon."

"At this time, the First Army of the Japanese Army must be a pack of wolves without a leader."

"Although the First Army still has several divisions, I estimate that after the battle of Zhongtiao Mountain, there will definitely not be much food and ammunition left in the absence of supply lines."

"Let's fight the county here, the devil must be powerless to support."

"Besides, we have to ask the people to help build the road, let's get this salary, we have to take care of this meal, right?"

"We still have to recruit 15,000 militiamen and recruits, and the food is not enough, what should we do if we have no money and no food, so we can only go to the county seat to rob the devil."

"In addition, don't you want to start the name of a new regiment, and lay down three county seats, is this name loud enough?"

Zhao Gang's words really went to Li Yunlong's heart, because he planned to do so.

He is the master who can't be idle, and now the devil puppet army in the county is empty, and when the devil increases his troops, it will not be so easy to take down the county seat.

Li Yunlong slapped the table and said with a smile: "Good Zhao Gang, it seems that I can't sit in the position of the head of the trump card group for a long time, have you kid long remembered this position?" ”

"Come on." Zhao Gang waved his hand and said, "This is actually what you think in your heart, I'm just saying what you think." ”

"Those who know me, Zhao Gangye." Li Yunlong nodded and smiled, when he first arrived, Li Yunlong also wanted to keep a low profile, but his strength did not allow it.

When the three county towns are laid, there will only be a little more publicity, and the young people who have signed up to join the army will definitely flock to it.

Li Yunlong said again: "Moreover, the business of the three county seats, Brother Chen's side should also be of some interest. ”

It is a county seat, although it is not as valuable as the provincial capital Taiyuan, but the price of the three counties combined, will not be low.

"And when are you going to do it?" Zhao Gang asked.

"As soon as possible." Li Yunlong said, "After the Sword Squadron finds out the enemy's garrison situation in the three county towns, formulates a battle plan, and negotiates business, it can be started." ”

After confirming this matter, Li Yunlong said: "Our artillery battalion also has to be expanded, at present, our artillery battalion has 12 150mm heavy guns, 10 105mm howitzers, 41 75mm mountain guns, plus the 12 105 howitzers and 12 75mm mountain guns left to us by the headquarters, which are about to arrive, that is, 12 150mm heavy guns, 24 105mm howitzers, 53 75mm mountain guns, a total of 89 guns, so many guns in an artillery battalion are a bit bloated." ”

"And how are you going to expand?" Zhao Gang asked, this scale is already more than 1 artillery brigade.

At the moment, the standard artillery brigade, 2 artillery regiments with a total of 72 guns, and the artillery of the new regiment has 17 more guns than the standard artillery brigade.

Li Yunlong said: "Another artillery battalion will be expanded, divided into 1st Artillery Battalion and 2nd Artillery Battalion, and in the future, there will be more artillery, and then 3rd Artillery Battalion and 4th Artillery Battalion will be expanded, Wang Chengzhu will be the commander of the 1st Artillery Battalion, and Liu Dazhuang, the deputy commander of the original Artillery Battalion, will be the commander of the 2nd Artillery Battalion." ”

Although the artillery battalion, in fact, each artillery battalion has exceeded the size of the artillery regiment, and each artillery battalion must be equipped with more than 1,000 people to play.

Zhao Gang nodded in agreement, and then asked, "How do you plan to select the 300 tank soldiers arranged for Brother Chen's training base?" ”

Li Yunlong said: "There is no need to select, just send half of the cavalry battalion to go." ”

When Zhao Gang heard this, he instantly realized: "Do you want to reorganize the cavalry battalion into a tank battalion in the future?" ”

Li Yunlong nodded, and his tone was affirmative: "That's right!" ”

Cavalry is still a bit of a chicken rib in modern warfare.

The destruction of the Black Island Cavalry Wing is an example, with dozens or hundreds of light and heavy machine guns placed on the battlefield, no matter how much cavalry there is, it will be for nothing.

However, in mountain combat, cavalry also has advantages, such as the ability to maneuver quickly.

Therefore, before the tank force of the new regiment was formed, even if Li Yunlong reorganized the cavalry battalion into a tank battalion, he would still retain some cavalry.
