"Regiment Commander, the head of the headquarters has agreed to our battle plan!"

The next day, Chief of Staff Wang Dehou hurriedly walked into the regiment headquarters with a telegram in his hand.

The tone is happy.

After sending a telegram to the headquarters yesterday, although the boss only thought for 10 seconds before agreeing to Li Yunlong's battle plan.

But after all, to launch such a big campaign, the head of the headquarters still has to hold a meeting to study it and ask for instructions from a higher level.

The higher levels also hope that after the Battle of the Hundred Regiments and the Battle of Taiyuan, the Eighth Route Army will take the initiative to launch another campaign against the Japanese army in North China and completely defeat the arrogance of the devils in North China!

Therefore, the telegram from the headquarters agreeing to the battle plan was sent to the new regiment the next day.

As soon as Xiuqin left, she sent Li Yunlong a pair of hand-embroidered cloth shoes.

The soles are embroidered with the War of Resistance to the End, and the insoles are embroidered with peony flowers.

The cloth shoes were casually put aside by him, and now the main forces of the new regiment are wearing rubber-soled shoes given by Boss Chen, but the recruits in each division are still wearing cloth shoes.

Li Yunlong was snorting melon seeds while thinking about whether to get some rubber-soled shoes for the troops in addition to steel helmets.

In addition, each recruit must be equipped with a gas mask.

The little devil is in the shadow, and the use of poison gas bombs on the battlefield is a regular operation.

Since the Eighth Route Army was equipped with gas masks, it has turned against the devils on the battlefield many times, and the devils have suffered a lot.

Each of the main infantry battalions of the new regiment had prepared gas masks, but the recruits were not yet equipped.

In this attack on the 36th Division, Boss Chen will give a deposit of 200 tons of weapons and ammunition and 200 tons of grain.

This is not counted in the business, Li Yunlong is wondering whether to replace some of the weapons and ammunition with gas masks?

At the moment the new regiment had sufficient weapons and ammunition, everyone had weapons, and even the artillery was armed with pistols or carbines.

Li Yunlong immediately decided to come down, change a batch of gas masks, and prepare to talk to Boss Chen about this matter.

Then Li Yunlong heard Wang Dehou's voice ringing in his ears, and a moment later, Wang Dehou walked into the regiment headquarters with a telegram in his hand.

"Oh? Agreed, what did the head of the headquarters say? ”

Li Yunlong's expression was slightly happy.

Although he had already guessed that the head of the headquarters would agree to the battle plan, Li Yunlong couldn't help but smile when he heard the news.

Such a big battle must have the support of the headquarters, otherwise it will not be possible to handle it with the new regiment at present.

The Battle of Peace in the late stage of the Anti-Japanese War in the original play.

Li Yunlong has the main force plus local armed forces, and there are tens of thousands of people in the county brigade, district squad, and village militia, and it is very difficult to fight a county town defended by a unit that has only more than 1,000 days of puppet army.

The main reason is to allocate half of the troops to send reinforcements.

And this time the enemy was even stronger, not only the elite 36th Division of the First Army, but also other units of the Japanese First Army that could be reinforced at any time.

Therefore, the new regiment needs the help of the head of the headquarters, and the cooperation of the main force of the 129th Division has a chance to eat the 36th Division.

Wang Dehou said happily: "The head of the headquarters said that the main force of the 129th Division is divided into two parts, one goes north to attack the Zhengtai Railway, and the other goes north from the Baijin Line to threaten Taiyuan, if the main force of the 37th Division and the main force of the 41st Division go north, the main force of the southeast of Shanxi will attack Yangquan and Taiyuan, and the new second regiment and the independent regiment will come over and cooperate with us to attack the 36th Division." ”

"In addition, the Central Army of the First Theater will also cross the Yellow River north and attack the Japanese army in Zhongtiao Mountain."

"In addition, the head of the headquarters also instructed us that although there is a main force to cooperate, we still have to be prepared for reinforcements and emergency preparedness."

Li Yunlong took the telegram from Wang Dehou's hand and read it.

There were three pages of telegrams, and the contents of the telegram were similar to those dictated by Wang Dehou, and after reading the contents of the telegram, Li Yunlong's face was extremely satisfied.

Everything is in place now.

Just waiting for the devils to build the bunker and turret.

……

Time flies like a white horse.

Half a month later.

Gaojia Village.

The headquarters of the independent regiment is stationed.

Kong Jie has been very leisurely recently, and his life is called a comfortable one.

Since Li Yunlong led the troops to come over and destroy the artillery towers around the base area with the independent regiment, the base areas of the independent regiment have been connected, and more than a month has passed, and the devils still have not sent troops to occupy these three county towns, which has made the independent regiment develop rapidly, not only the main force has expanded to more than 4,000 people, but also vigorously developed local troops, county brigades, district squads, and village militias.

Since the seizure of the county seat belonged to the independent regiment, the independent regiment is also rich today.

Not only is there a cannon of an artillery regiment, but also a cannon of a machine gun regiment, and the ammunition reserves are quite abundant.

However, in order to ensure the combat effectiveness of the troops, in addition to the daily hard training, Kong Jie often sent troops to farther places to fight the devil's ambush and rob the devil's transport team.

After nearly two months of integration, the current independent regiment has the strength to fight head-on with a wing of the Japanese army, and even has a great advantage in artillery fire.

In terms of road construction, Kong Jie has already determined the route with Li Yunlong and Ding Wei, and has already started construction.

However, the defense area of the independent regiment is about 100 kilometers away from the defense area of the new regiment, and even if the two-way road construction starts together, it will take at least half a year before the defense areas of the three regiments can be opened to traffic.

The more than 20 devil trucks seized after the three county towns were conquered naturally belonged to Kong Jie.

Kong Jie used these more than 20 devil trucks to form a car platoon, but gasoline is not very easy to use, so the usage rate is low.

Kong Jie will not forget that the independent regiment has the current scale and firepower, and most of the credit is due to Li Yunlong's help.

Half a month ago, the brigade headquarters sent a telegram to the Independent Regiment, saying that the new regiment would make a big move recently, and that Kong Jie and the independent regiment would be ready to cooperate with the new regiment at any time.

It was said that it was fighting with the new regiment, but in fact, it was to lead the troops over to listen to Li Yunlong's command.

Kong Jie guessed that Li Yunlong was going to attack the 36th Division, and he didn't sleep in the middle of the night with excitement.

The opportunity for the independent group to make a fortune has come!

Kong Jie immediately ordered the troops to be ready at any time and prepare three days' dry rations, but this wait was half a month.

Just as Kong Jie was considering whether to ask the telegraph operator to send a telegram to inquire about Li Yunlong.

The coder walked in with a telegram in his hand: "Report to the head of the regiment, a new telegram!" ”

"Huh?"

Kong Jie raised his eyebrows slightly, took the telegram from the decoder's hand and looked at it.

The telegram was short, with only a few words: I have meat to eat here, come quickly.

The signing is the new head of the regiment, Li Yunlong.

But Kong Jie, who knew Li Yunlong, knew that the shorter the content of the telegram, the greater the amount of information.

After reading the telegram, the corners of Kong Jie's mouth grinned slightly, and he suddenly slapped the telegram on the table, and shouted loudly at the door: "Pass my order, and the whole group will gather immediately!" ”

The main forces of the Separate Regiment, which were already ready, quickly assembled.

The political commissar and one infantry battalion stayed behind to look after the house, and Kong Jie led the other four infantry battalions, machine gun battalions, artillery battalions, and cavalry companies to march quickly to the defense area of the new regiment.

At the same time.

Ding Wei also received a telegram from Li Yunlong inviting him to eat meat, and immediately led the main force of the New Second Regiment to the New First Regiment non-stop.

……

After two days of rapid marching.

Kong Jie and Ding Wei led the main forces to the defense area of the new regiment one after another.

At this time, the main force of the 36th Division of the Japanese army involved in the attack was close to 30,000.

Although half of them were two-month-old recruits, the recruits had fought twice, and each of them had stabbed the devil's corpse with a bayonet.

Coupled with all American-style equipment, sufficient ammunition and logistical supplies, the firepower can fully make up for the lack of combat experience and training.

This is also where Li Yunlong's confidence lies in daring to let new recruits go to the battlefield.

Kong Jie arrived at Zhaojiayu first, and Ding Wei also arrived a few hours later.

In the new group, Li Yunlong asked the cooking class to make a table of good wine and food to entertain Ding Wei and Kong Jie, and Deputy Head Xing was on the side.

"Lao Li, I haven't seen you for two months, how did your regiment become motorized?"

Kong Jie ate a fried peanut, then looked at Li Yunlong and asked, looking at the big truck and jeep, his eyes were hot.

"Haha, it's still far from being motorized."

"There are only 20 jeeps, more than 20 devil trucks, and 60 Jiefang trucks."

Li Yunlong laughed, looking at Kong Jie's expression, he was in a good mood.

Kong Jie's tone was surprised: "More than 100 cars, my good man, you kid has made a fortune!" ”

Li Yunlong said with a smile: "Come on, come on, drink and drink, there are more than 100 cars, it's not worth mentioning." ”

The four of them touched the bowl, and Li Yunlong drank one with water instead of wine.

Then, Ding Wei asked: "Lao Li, you tell me and Lao Kong, how many troops do you have now?" ”

Kong Jie also pricked up his ears and made a gesture of listening carefully.

When fighting against the Japanese army in the southeast of Shanxi, he took the initiative to attack a Japanese division, and almost had to gather the main force of the 30,000 Eighth Route Army, and it was under the condition of sufficient ammunition and sufficient logistics supplies.

At present, Li Yunlong dares to attack the 36th Division, so there will definitely be no shortage of troops.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie knew that Li Yunlong would recruit troops after he arrived in the northwest of Shanxi, but they did not know how many troops the new regiment had expanded.

Speaking of this, Grand Master Li was not sleepy, and said, "How many troops have been expanded?" Guess what? ”

"Expanded by 3000?" Kong Jie asked tentatively.

Li Yunlong shook his head, and Xing Zhiguo on the side also smiled and said nothing.

"Expanded by 5,000?" Ding Wei also asked tentatively.

Li Yunlong's tone was triumphant: "It's a surprise to say it, I have expanded by 17,000 people during this time, and now the main force of the new regiment has more than 23,000 people!" ”

"Expand the number of 17,000 people?! A total of 23,000 troops? When Kong Jie heard this, Tong Kong shrank slightly, and his face was full of disbelief.

"Really?"

Ding Wei was also a little unconvinced.

Xing Zhiguo said with a smile: "This is true, during this time, our new regiment has expanded by 15,000 infantry, and has also expanded 1 air defense battalion, 1 artillery battalion and 1 heavy artillery battalion. ”

When Ding Wei heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "It's time to fight local tyrants again!" ”

Kong Jie sighed in a tone of emotion: "It's really fucking rich, and I'm a military commander!" ”

The new regiment has today's solid family foundation and troops, and Ding Wei and Kong Jie are fake when they say that they are not envious, but they are more happy for their old comrades-in-arms.

After all, Li Yunlong is rich, and just give them a little equipment can make them both rich.

"Hurry up and finish eating, let's visit Lao Li's heavy artillery." Ding Wei said, "Lao Li, I'll take a look at your heavy artillery with Lao Kong, right?" ”

Haha smiled, Li Yunlong said: "No problem, just look at it!" ”
