Guo Yonggui then rushed the puppet prisoners to carry supplies. There were several carts and horses in the stronghold, which could be used to carry these supplies.

The puppet troops also cooperated and helped carry the supplies obediently, without any intention of resisting.

All supplies were packed and taken away, and Zhou Weiguo also personally placed explosives in the gun towers and rooms throughout the stronghold.

Then a group of people left the stronghold, and as a series of violent explosions sounded, the entire stronghold was blown into ruins.

Two soldiers outside the stronghold also rushed over, met Zhou Weiguo and the others, and the group walked towards the station together.

At this time, Gou Dongliang, who had never seen the main force of the Eighth Route Army, couldn't help but asked Zhou Weiguo softly: "Sir, are these the only ones you have?"

"how?"

Zhou Weiguo asked with a sneer: "Do you feel that your company was captured by our squad and you are not convinced?"

"No no no~!"

Gou Dongliang waved his hand quickly and said: "That's not true. The main reason is that I think you are too courageous. Only a dozen people dare to establish a stronghold."

Guo Yonggui cursed: "Our squad leader has expected this a long time ago. You bunch of cowards have no backbone at all and you don't dare to resist at all!"

"Yes yes yes!"

Gou Dongliang nodded and said, "Sir, what you are trying to teach us is that we are indeed cowards and cowards."

"As long as we have a little bit of backbone, we won't act like dogs to the little devil!"

A man who knows the current affairs is a hero, but now he has fallen into the hands of the Eighth Route Army. This Gou Dongliang is also very honest, and he will do whatever he says.

Guo Yonggui scolded: "You are really good at talking!"

Gou Dongliang chuckled and said, "I don't have much ability. I can be a regiment commander just because of my mouth. If I hadn't been bad at Japanese, I would probably be the battalion commander now."

"Even those little devils are a bunch of trash. As long as you make them happy, it's easy to get promoted and make a fortune."

Zhou Weiguo glared at Gou Dongliang and said, "Now you have no chance to get promoted and make a fortune. When you get to the base area, make a good reform."

"Even if you surrender voluntarily this time, it will be considered a meritorious service and you can strive for a lighter sentence."

Gou Dongliang immediately said gratefully: "Thank you sir, we will definitely reform and be a new person in the future."

"Actually, we no longer want to be treated like dogs by the little devils. These stupid little devils don't regard us as human beings at all."

Zhou Weiguo said angrily: "You should have figured this out a long time ago. If you leave a good person alone, you have to be a dog for the little devil."

"Yes, yes, yes~! We were wrong, we will never dare again in the future." Gou Dongliang quickly assured.

Fifteen people were guarding more than eighty prisoners, but these puppet soldiers knew what they were doing and did not dare to play any tricks.

The team returned to the base smoothly.

The news spread all of a sudden.

One squad captured a company of puppet troops and took control of the Wuzhuang stronghold. This incident caused quite a stir in the regiment headquarters, and also caused Zhou Weiguo's name to quickly spread throughout the regiment.

Zhou Weiguo came to the regiment headquarters and saw Li Yunlong. He quickly stood up at attention and gave a military salute.

"Report to the leader, Zhou Weiguo is here to return."

"Haha~!"

Li Yunlong laughed and said, "I've heard all about it. You did a great job this time."

"I really saw the right person."

Zhou Weiguo said quickly: "This time it's just a fluke, it's nothing."

"A group of puppet soldiers have no fighting spirit at all. If I had known this, I would have been able to persuade them to surrender with just one person. I got a big advantage this time."

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "In any case, we finally established a stronghold and captured a company of puppet troops."

"This credit is not small. How much benefit did you get this time?"

Zhou Weiguo replied: "All the captured trophies have been put into storage. There are a total of one crooked handle, one imitation of the Czech style, ten with 38-inch caps, fifteen with medium-sized caps, and forty-two with old sleeves made in Hanyang.

Two bastard boxes, six box cannons, a total of more than 7,000 rounds of various types of bullets, more than 200 grenades, a dozen landmines, and about 200 kilograms of explosives."

"There are about more than 4,000 kilograms of grain, as well as some clothes, shoes, and daily necessities."

"In addition, there are more than two thousand yuan, five gold bars and some gold and silver jewelry. I don't know where these idiots got them from."

"Haha~!"

Li Yunlong laughed and said: "These idiots don't have much weapons and equipment, but they have plenty of ammunition."

"One company actually has more than 7,000 rounds of ammunition. I remember when the new regiment was first established, the entire regiment only had 5,000 rounds of ammunition, and the average was less than five rounds per person."

"It seems like these idiots are really quite wealthy."

Zhou Weiguo explained with a smile: "The little devils also wanted to let them hold on to their stronghold, so the ammunition left for them is quite sufficient, but now they are all at our advantage."

"good!"

Li Yunlong nodded with satisfaction and said: "You have worked hard, go back and have a good rest."

Gu Tao

"yes!"

Zhou Weiguo responded quickly, and then said: "It's really not interesting to fight these puppet troops. It doesn't matter if you have made a contribution. If you want to fight, just fight the little devils."

"Don't you always say that? We are fighting elites. If there is a chance, the leader should think more about me."

"Haha~!"

Li Yunlong laughed and said: "Don't worry, if there is a chance, I will definitely not forget you."

"Just today, new instructions came from our superiors. We have to change our defenses!"

"According to the instructions from our superiors, we are going to the Luzhou area to open up a new base area. The enemy's power there is still very strong."

"When you get there, are you still worried that you won't have the chance to kill the Japanese and make meritorious deeds?"

Zhou Weiguo was overjoyed when he heard this and quickly asked: "Then when will we set off?"

Li Yunlong said: "According to the instructions from our superiors, we will set off in a few days. We will seize the time to prepare in the past few days and hand over the defense here to our brother troops, and then we can set off."

Zhou Weiguo said excitedly: "Great! I was worried that there was no use for it! It seems that I came to the right place."

After seeing Zhou Weiguo off, Li Yunlong lit a cigarette and began to wonder about his superiors' intentions.

The Luzhou area leans on the Taihang Mountains to the east and is adjacent to the provinces of Hebei and Henan. To the west is the Taiyue Mountains, which is the hub connecting Taihang and Taiyue.

The terrain in this area is relatively flat, the population is dense, and the economy is relatively prosperous. It is indeed a good place.

It is precisely for this reason that the Japs stationed relatively large numbers of troops here.

The two major base areas of the Eighth Route Army, Taihang and Taiyue, were also divided into two by the Luzhou area.

If the Eighth Route Army gains a firm foothold here this time and develops this place into a base area, then the two base areas of Taihang and Taiyue can be connected together, which is of great significance for future development.

If the time is right and the connection between the Luzhou area and Jin and other places is cut off, the two major base areas can fully recover the entire Luzhou area by concentrating their superior forces.

When the two major base areas are connected, and there is such a densely populated base area, the strength will definitely increase greatly.

Therefore, taking the opportunity to enter the Luzhou area this time is a strategic layout of the superior leadership, which is of great significance.

The New Regiment was the first batch of troops to go to the Luzhou area, also because the superiors had high hopes for the New Regiment.

So for Li Yunlong, this is definitely a rare opportunity.

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong was very excited.

At this moment, Zhao Gang walked in and said with a smile: "I just heard that Zhou Weiguo and the others captured the Wuzhuang stronghold and captured a lot of loot."

"One squad captured a company of puppet soldiers, that's amazing!"

Li Yunlong smiled and said: "It's just so-so! This Zhou Weiguo is still very capable. This time is just a small test at best."

Zhao Gang smiled and said: "It is the leader who is very powerful and famous that can attract such talents to join us."

"Hehe~!"

Li Yunlong chuckled and said, "When did you, Political Commissar Zhao, learn to flatter you? It makes me feel uncomfortable."

"Speaking of Zhou Weiguo, I was about to discuss it with you! This time Zhou Weiguo has made meritorious service, and I plan to promote him to the rank of full platoon officer."

Zhao Gang nodded and said: "It stands to reason that based on his ability, he is completely qualified. Let alone a platoon leader, he is more than enough to be a company commander."

"It's just that he joined the team a short time after all, so I'm afraid some people won't be convinced!"

"Who is dissatisfied?"

Li Yunlong said confidently: "If anyone can kill a company of puppet troops in one squad and seize so many supplies and equipment, I will promote him to the rank of platoon leader."

"This Zhou Weiguo is a rare talent who has come to seek refuge with us. If we treat him lightly and spread the word, no one with talents like him will be willing to seek refuge with us in the future."

"Let me tell you this! The platoon leader is only temporary. What I mean is that he must be promoted to at least the deputy battalion level, or even the full battalion level."

"I told you before that we want to establish a special operations force similar to the Yamamoto Special Forces, and Zhou Weiguo is a talent in this field. In terms of experience in this field, this kid is better than me."

"So I plan to let him be the captain of this special forces team in the future. The level of the special operations team is tentatively set at the deputy battalion level, because some company commanders may be selected to join the special operations team. If the level is lower, it will not be possible."

"So we need to raise his level as soon as possible so that we can establish a special team as soon as possible."

"Since he has made a contribution this time, he should be promoted as an exception!"

Zhao Gang nodded and said, "What you said makes sense. If you want to win over talents, you can't treat them badly."

"Then let him be promoted to platoon leader first!"

Li Yunlong nodded slightly and said, "Since you have no objection, then it's settled."

Zhao Gang also felt helpless.

Do I want to have any opinions?

Can you agree?
Chapter completed!
