25 Xinhua Taihang Edition

Brigade headquarters.

The brigade commander's resistance ended in failure without any suspense.

The boss laughed, strode and left with forty tons of ammunition.

The brigade commander sighed silently in the back.

Probably the only thing that made the brigade commander feel a little comfort was that the boss did not use the brigade headquarters transport materials, but the transportation team from the logistics department of the headquarters.

"Sure enough, it was the official who crushed people to death!"

The brigade commander muttered.

The brigade chief of staff glanced at the brigade commander and smiled secretly.

The scene just now, he felt very familiar, and after thinking about it, isn't this a common thing for Li Yunlong and the brigade commander, every time Li Yunlong gets something good, the brigade commander takes a fancy to it, so he goes over to grab it.

Grand Master Li always ended up with a sentence that the official university crushed people to death.

···

"Great, great!"

"With these forty tons of ammunition..."

On the way back to the headquarters with supplies, the soldiers of the headquarters transport team were elated.

Of the forty tons of weapons and ammunition, weapons account for only a small part, most of them are ammunition, all kinds of bullets, artillery shells, grenade grenades, for the troops who are desperately short of ammunition, a big tonic.

It means that the next time the devils sweep up, the troops will be more confident.

"This guy..."

In a joyful land, the boss was thoughtful.

He felt something was wrong.

"Boss, what's wrong?"

The guard couldn't help but ask.

"Haha..."

The boss smiled and didn't answer.

If there is a boss, there will be a subordinate.

Li Yunlong is a door-picker, and his direct superiors are no better.

The last time a million bullets were rounded, it made him feel that something was wrong.

Later, I sent someone to inquire,

Really!

In February, the 386th Brigade received more than 350 Czech-type shells, more than 2 million rounds, more than 1,000 60 mortar shells, more than 2,000 grenade grenades, and 2,000 German-made grenades.

A million rounds of ammunition for headquarters are less than a fraction of that.

This behavior is very important to Brigadier Chen.

But this time forty tons of ammunition, although he said that he wanted to leave some way to live, protested for a long time, and finally he took his identity to suppress it.

During the whole process, there was just a protest, there was no actual act of bargaining, just let him gain the upper hand little by little in the pull, and the last forty tons of ammunition were all taken.

Forty tons.

Including a full half a million rounds of ammunition, four thousand eight hundred rounds of 60 mortar shells, five thousand two hundred rounds of grenadier grenades,

Not a lot!

For the entire Eighth Route Army, it was a big fortune.

Just let him take it all away, just verbally protesting.

What does this mean?

It shows that these 40 tons of ammunition, in fact, in the eyes of others, are really just a little material.

Looking back,

According to the words of the commander of the 38th Regiment, the 40 tons of weapons and ammunition were brought back to the 38th Regiment by Li Yunlong after he had fought an ambush on the road between Yu County and Liao County.

After an ambush battle, there are still forty tons of ammunition left?

The bit of devil weapons and equipment that was captured, counting the broken Type 97 mortar, added up to less than eight tons.

When he set off, how many weapons and ammunition did Li Yunlong have to bring?

What is even more intriguing is that Li Yunlong actually handed over 350 military horses and 150 mules to the brigade headquarters!

This is all the horses and mules of the Independent Regiment!

"Staff Officer Hu."

The boss called a staff officer from the headquarters who came with him.

"Yes."

A staff officer arrived at once.

"You stay in the 386th Brigade, make this ambush clear as soon as possible, and then write a press release and hand it over to the Northern Bureau, so that they can publish it as soon as possible."

"Be sure to write truthfully."

"But in terms of the quantity of materials, don't write the actual number, just write that Li Yunlong handed over a large number of weapons, ammunition and materials!"

"Yes!"

···

"Report."

"Brigade command!"

As soon as Li Yunlong finished pondering the three new materials that could be applied for, the brigade headquarters correspondent came to the regiment headquarters and handed Li Yunlong an order.

After taking the order and glancing at it, Li Yunlong suddenly heed:

"Let me send troops to camp in Kamimura?!"

Where is Uemura?

The core area of the Taiyue base area.

Shangcun and more than a dozen surrounding villages not only had a strong mass base and a large number of ordinary people joined the Eighth Route Army, but also because these villages had a small river passing through them, there was a lot of water on the land, there was also a lot of grain production, and several landlords were relatively enlightened, so they supported the troops with a large amount of food and materials.

Therefore, Shangcun is the key infiltration area of devils in Liao County.

In Xiazhuang, which is only twenty miles away from Shangcun, the devils of Liao County established a permanent concrete stronghold, stationed a squadron of devils, and built a complete ring of fortifications.

A road from the lower village to the upper village is also being built.

According to the intelligence, the devils even plan to build a concrete fortification group of the same scale as Xiazhuang in Shangcun, and station more devils than Xiazhuang.

Today, Shangcun and more than a dozen surrounding villages are about to become guerrilla areas, and the control of the troops is gradually weakening, and the common people even have great complaints about the troops.

It's not a good thing to be stationed here.

Aggressive devils, completely incapable Xiazhuang strongholds, and gradually complex mass base are all very difficult troubles to deal with.

"What a good thing!"

But Li Yunlong was overjoyed when he heard the news.

The order of the brigade headquarters was for him to send a part of his troops to be stationed in Shangcun to consolidate the base area and protect the common people, but no other troops were arranged to be stationed in the current defense area of the independent regiment.

It's not a change of guard!

Yangcun still needs an independent regiment to be stationed.

This also means that the independent regiment needs to be expanded.

In the face of the situation of the enemy and the enemy, the independent regiment needs to expand at least one main battalion and two infantry companies, totaling more than 700 troops, in order to ensure the fulfillment of the tasks of the higher authorities.

There are more than 700 more people, and a large amount of supplies will come in every month, and the total size of the independent regiment will also reach 2,500 people.

Between Shangcun and Yang Village, there are 12 kilometers of horse trails and 10 kilometers of mountain roads.

The long distance means that not only combat units, but also independent regimental transport teams need to be expanded.

And that's not all.

It also made Li Yunlong have a preliminary plan for long-term cooperation - the annihilation of the Shan Island Wing Wing Wing Headquarters and the capture of the Shan Island Wing Wing Flag.

Taking the initiative to attack the garrison of an infantry wing of the devils, on the road, near the county seat, in the home area of these devils, with the current strength of the independent regiment, it is completely unqualified.

Even if it is expanded to 2,500 people, it will not work.

He was able to kill Sakata because Sakata took the initiative to attack and fought with the new regiment in the complex terrain of the mountains, and he found an opportunity.

So he can do it all over again.

Attract the mountain island wing out, attract it into the mountainous area of the base area, and fight on the home ground of the independent regiment, so that he will completely annihilate the mountain island wing headquarters and capture the wing flag.

Although it is not easy to attract a wing of devils, it is not easy to bring the flag team to attack together.

But it's also easy to say.

What is the purpose of the devil's cage to block the base area and launch sweeps again and again?

It is nothing more than trying to cut off the material source of the Eighth Route Army, weaken the Eighth Route Army, and finally achieve the goal of exterminating the Eighth Route Army.

Then, he established a solid base area, exported weapons, ammunition, food and supplies to other troops, and developed into a thorn in the side of the devil, and he didn't believe that Shandao would not personally encircle and suppress him.

Brother Lu's contract stipulated that he could not directly provide supplies to other units of the Eighth Route Army.

But this is not to directly provide supplies to other troops, but to attract the old devils of Yamashima to attack, so as to create an opportunity to annihilate the Yamashima Wing Headquarters and capture the Wing Flag.

I don't know if Brother Lu will approve it?

Li Yunlong felt that it was very likely.

"Hahaha..."

Grand Master Li seemed to see a steady stream of supplies pouring towards him, and he also saw a steady stream of devils rushing to the station of the Independent Regiment.

It's all good for him.

···

March 10th.

Today is the release date of the new issue of Taihang Xinhua News.

Xinhua News should be a daily newspaper,

Publish international current affairs, world situation, base situation, domestic situation, including the battle situation between the Eighth Route Army and the devils, the battle between the fruit and the devils, etc.

Enough to support the circulation of daily newspapers.

However, due to the cage tactics of the devils, the current transportation in the base area is not smooth, and it is difficult for the newspaper to spread and spread, coupled with the lack of newsprint, and the delay in collecting international current affairs, it has been changed to a weekly publication.

If there is important news, a special issue is printed.

For example, Abe Guixiu once received this treatment.

As for Sakata, the special special issue was not enough, but it also made headlines.

The reason why the deeds of Grand Master Li have been so widely spread even in the Liaoxian prisoner of war camp is because of the propaganda role of Xinhua News.

On this day,

When the editor-in-chief confirmed the latest Xinhua News layout, a staff officer from the headquarters ran in again and handed the editor-in-chief a press release.

"Good guys!"

Glancing at the press release in his hand, the editor-in-chief of Xinhua News was quite shocked:

"Li Yunlong has completely annihilated another squadron of devil infantry?"

"Or a reinforced infantry squadron, more than two hundred devils?"

"Awesome!"

"What! Li Yunlong wiped out two hundred devils again? ”

This shock made the newspaper completely boil.

At the end of last month, Li Yunlong killed two hundred little devils, how long has it been?

Less than twenty days.

More than two hundred were killed.

Doesn't it mean that in less than a month since Li Yunlong arrived in the Independent Regiment, he was about to kill 400 devils?

"Grand Master Li, has you taken tiger medicine?"

Some newspaper staff were amazed.

But between the tones, it is with honor.

As a newspaper subordinate to the Eighth Route Army, the more powerful the troops fought against devils, the happier they became.

After all, it's big news.

Propaganda is a big news that can boost the morale of the soldiers and the morale of the people in the base areas.

"Quick."

"Reformatting."

"Fight for today's newspaper."

The editor-in-chief immediately began to gather everyone to work.

As for the statement at the end of the press release that the Independence Regiment had seized a large amount of weapons and ammunition, the crowd ignored them as a matter of course.

Acting together with the Headquarters, with constant contact with the Headquarters Staff Officers, they naturally understand.

For the most part of the battle, the consumption is greater than the capture.

Although Li Yunlong is an exception, it is not much better, and the seized materials are not much.

Bucket.

You must know that the newsprint of Xinhua Newspaper is becoming less and less, and even the printing ink is beginning to be insufficient, and after the parts of the printing equipment are damaged, the comrades who are still latent are transported back through the hidden line.
