66 Li Yunlong: Brigade Commander, there is one thing that I have always been very unconvinced!
"Headquarters reinforcements, will Boss Lu agree?"
Zhao Gang was a little worried.
The contract stipulates that those who participate in the cooperation mission of Boss Lu can only be soldiers of the independent regiment.
Even if it is a superior reinforcement, a new recruit must join the independent regiment for two months.
Although the time limit could be circumvented by purchasing this trick, today the independent regiment has 3,500 men, plus 1,500 recruits from the militia battalion, for a total strength of 5,000 men.
It's been expanded to the limit.
Brother Lu has made it clear that the follow-up can be further expanded unless there are special circumstances.
This time, however, the headquarters sent a reinforced artillery battalion of 650 men, including a battalion company and platoon commander officer with an artillery battalion establishment and 60 mortar artillery squads.
In addition to the lack of weapons and the lack of logistics personnel, they can almost go directly to the battlefield.
Fifty battalion and company-level officers also came over, saying that they had come to observe the experience and serve as a reserve to supplement the deficiencies of the officers.
But the meaning of wool has been written directly on the face.
"This sale is to kill the wing headquarters of the Yamashima United and seize the wing flag."
Li Yunlong's tone was confident:
"The headquarters artillery battalion is here to help us resist the attacking forces of the Mountain Island Wing."
"The two are not in conflict."
"Makes sense!"
Zhao Gang thought about it in his heart, and suddenly felt that it made sense.
The contract also stipulates that it will not interfere with the normal operations of the Independent Regiment and other units of the Eighth Route Army, and it is reasonable for the Independent Regiment to come to reinforce the headquarters in the face of the devil's attack.
The artillery battalions supported by the headquarters, and the officers at the battalion and company level are only responsible for blocking other units of the Yamashima Wing, and will not participate in cooperation.
Brother Lu will most likely agree.
"This time."
Zhao Gang then pulled the topic to the point:
"How many 82 mortar shells do we want?"
"To..."
Li Yunlong began to continue thinking in his heart.
This collaboration is special.
It was the devil who came to attack the station of the Independent Regiment, so the people of the Independent Regiment could go together and apply for the material budget, and they were not limited by the transportation capacity.
Although it was due to the limitation of the strength of the independent regiment and the limitation of the number of troops, the number of machine guns, rifles, submachine guns, 60 mortars, grenadiers and other light weapons and equipment has been fixed.
But the 82 mortar, which is a regimental direct support artillery, is not limited.
As long as the independent regiment is operated, it can be vigorously increased.
Now the headquarters has sent an artillery reinforcement battalion to reinforce it, and with the independent regiment's own artillery unit, he can form more than a hundred artillery squads and a dozen artillery batteries.
The only problem is in the ammunition.
Because defensive warfare is not limited by weight, as long as the quantity is reasonable.
Especially 82 mortar shells.
60 mortars were just infantry accompanying support weapons.
Then the 82 mortar, with a range of 3.5 km, can be fully clustered and used to complete the artillery fire coverage to destroy the enemy's positions, block the artillery fire, block the enemy's reinforcements, artillery surveillance, and limit the combat mission of the enemy's troops.
Therefore, the shells were stuck as much as possible, and more was left for the troops after the war.
"Counting the artillery regiment of the headquarters, we can organize one hundred and twenty artillery squads, one artillery per class, ten artillery pieces per company, and twelve artillery companies can be formed."
Li Yunlong crossed his fingers and pondered.
Twelve artillery batteries, one hundred and twenty artillery pieces.
Hearing this number, Zhao Gang's heart beat rapidly - unconsciously, the independent regiment could actually concentrate such a huge force?
"We're dealing with a wing of devils this time."
"In terms of troops, it is only five hundred fewer than the independent regiment."
"So, this should be a big battle, right?"
"Count." Zhao Gang added: "The devil not only has a barrel cannon, but also an aircraft to support it!" ”
According to the information obtained by the headquarters, although the strength of the devils is only 3,000, there are still seven devil fighters on the Taiyuan side ready to support at any time.
This battle is not so easy to fight.
"This battle is estimated to take a while."
Li Yunlong finally decided on the number of shells.
"A base is 80 rounds, then each artillery, twenty-five bases, two thousand rounds."
In the end, Li Yunlong set a figure - two thousand rounds per gun.
One hundred and twenty 82 mortars, for a total of two hundred and forty-four thousand rounds of 82 mortar shells.
"One last question."
Zhao Gang said suddenly:
"How do we inform the brigade commander of our plan?"
The plan of the independent regiment was to attract the Devil's Mountain Island Wing to go deep into the hinterland of the base area.
Then took advantage of the night to launch a large-scale feint attack, covering the raid of a small group of troops led by Li Yunlong himself, and with the support of the intelligence provided by Boss Lu, he went straight to the headquarters of the Shandao Wing.
Annihilated the headquarters of the Yamashima Wing and captured the Wing flag.
This requires the cooperation of the brigade headquarters, otherwise halfway through, the Yamashima Wing will be ambushed by the brigade commander and his troops.
However, Boss Chen's contract stipulates that it is forbidden to tell his superiors directly.
"It's easy."
Li Yunlong came to the communication room located on the top of the mountain behind Yangcun:
"Pick me up for the brigade."
The maximum call distance of the new walkie-talkie is 45 kilometers, and the bad weather is 13 kilometers, but this requires both sides to be at the commanding heights, and the installation of a large size and a large weight of more than a dozen kilograms and a huge increase in size.
If a portable one-and-a-half-meter antenna is used, the communication distance is halved.
The brigade headquarters is only more than 30 kilometers away from the station of the independent regiment, and with the use of amplification antennas, it is possible to talk almost anytime and anywhere.
"Yes."
The correspondent immediately turned on the walkie-talkie, adjusted the frequency, and communicated with the brigade headquarters:
"Brigade headquarters, brigade headquarters, this is an independent regiment, please reply if you receive it."
Soon, a voice came from the microphone:
"This is the brigade headquarters, it has been received, please speak."
The correspondent looked at Li Yunlong and handed the headphones and microphone to Li Yunlong.
"I'm Li Yunlong."
Taking the microphone and headphones, Li Yunlong said directly:
"I'm going to talk to the brigade commander."
···
Meanwhile.
Yu County.
The headquarters of the mountain island wing.
The Beijing Brigade was ambushed by the Independent Regiment and suffered heavy losses, and the captain of the brigade was martyred, so Yamashima Dazuo had to send the brigade reinforced by the brigade to Liao County to temporarily make up for the vacancy in troops.
Then receive the additional troops and officers from Yangquan and rebuild the Beijing Brigade.
Of course, the Kitai Ming box has been completed, and the newly formed brigade will no longer be called the Kitai Brigade, but the new brigade leader has not yet been appointed, so the actual number of the brigade can only be the 3rd Infantry Brigade of the Yamada Wing.
At this time, Lieutenant Tominojima.
It was the former Sakata Wing team leader, Cangyunling's returned team from injury, the Yamashima United, stationed in the Liao County stronghold, but again because Li Yunlong sent people to ambush the transport team, he was injured and removed from his post on Fuye Island.
Due to the lack of officers, he was reinstated and once again served as a squad leader in the newly formed brigade.
At this time, the senior squad leader frowned deeply as he looked at the pile of supplementary recruits in front of him.
I can't help but have an evaluation in my heart!
A bunch of rubbish!
The First Army had 2,000 reserve supplementary soldiers, but most of them were the inferior C-class soldiers, with poor physical fitness and poor spiritual understanding of bushido, so they could only be assigned to the C-class divisions responsible for garrison tasks.
Although he is also a soldier who has undergone four months of recruit training, it is far worse than the recruits obtained by the second division regiment.
With such a newly formed brigade, to attack the Separate Regiment?
Attack the independent regiment commanded by Li Yunlong?
Tominoshima sensed something was wrong.
·····
"A bunch of rubbish!"
Those who feel the same way as Tominojima, there is also a male tomo.
It's the one who broke through from the Xiazhuang stronghold, the captain of the devil squadron.
Because of the lack of officers, it was too late to be transferred from other places for the time being, and the only surviving squadron leader of the Beijing Brigade, the male Zhiguan, was reinstated, and according to the order of the wing headquarters, he wanted to make meritorious service and lead the team to recapture the Xiazhuang stronghold.
But seeing a group of waste recruits assigned to his subordinates, O Kamichi, who had experienced a nightmare experience in the Xiazhuang stronghold, had no confidence in the next attack.
Although he had not experienced the artillery fire coverage composed of 16 82 mortars, he had actually experienced the elite blockade of the second battalion.
The strength of half of the squadron at night, the onboard broke through, and only five people succeeded alive, and this battle made Nan Shangzhi deeply appreciate the combat effectiveness of the independent regiment after having sufficient weapons and ammunition.
It was an elite unit that was definitely comparable to the First Division.
Rely on this group of waste to retake the Xiazhuang stronghold?
When pigs fly.
"Gotta find a way to save your life."
A thought came to the mind of the male wisdom.
Before breaking through from the Shimosho stronghold, O Kamichi was still a loyal bushido samurai, the most loyal soldier of the Locust, willing to give everything for the emperor and the holy war.
But after experiencing a life-and-death breakthrough, he suddenly realized.
I even felt that my former self was so ridiculous.
He rushed to death for the locusts, for the imperial holy war?
But what about the locusts?
It's ridiculous!
From now on, he will live for himself.
···
"Li Yunlong."
Brigade headquarters, communications room.
The brigade commander picked up the headset microphone, and although his tone was stern, every soldier in the communication room could hear the happiness in the brigade commander's voice.
They were also very happy.
Since the acquisition of the new walkie-talkie, the 386th Brigade has almost ushered in earth-shaking changes.
The brigade headquarters can directly communicate with almost every regiment and even every brigade, with a minimum of 10 seconds and a maximum of 5 minutes, and there is no longer a need for one by one communication troops to ride horses to make notices, and the speed of troop assembly has increased by as much as three times.
If there is any fighter, you can grasp it in time, and it is not easy to miss it.
Although telephone lines can also reach this level.
But the telephone line is troublesome to lay, and the maintenance is even more troublesome, and you have to worry about the devil's eavesdropping.
This new type of walkie-talkie, although theoretically, as long as the devil finds the frequency channel, it is also easy to eavesdrop, but with the existence of frequency hopping encryption technology, it is not so easy to find the frequency and channel.
Much safer than a phone line.
"Brigade commander, there is a sentence that I have wanted to say for a long time."
Opposite the microphone, Li Yunlong's voice was loud.
"What's the matter?"
The brigade commander's voice was calm.
Li Yunlong's voice is still loud:
"Although I obeyed the orders of my superiors and accepted the punishment for the matter of Cangyunling, I have always had reservations."
"I think that after I killed Nobuzhe Sakata, it was the right choice to break through."
"Yo, the waist pole is hard?"
The brigade commander's voice suddenly raised an octave, but before he finished speaking, the soldiers in the communication room of the brigade headquarters heard that Grand Master Li on the other side of the microphone seemed to be excited, and his voice suddenly lowered, no longer loud as before:
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Brigadier, I drank some wine..."
Doodoo··· The other side hung up the phone.
"Got a good show?"
An old communications soldier said gloatingly to the new communications soldier next to him.
Who doesn't know about the 386th Brigade Headquarters?
Grand Master Li is not afraid of heaven and earth, he is afraid of the brigade commander, but he didn't expect that he would drink too much today and come to the brigade commander to make trouble.
But contrary to everyone's expectations, after taking off the headset microphone, the brigade commander fell into deep thought.
