The radio station at the brigade headquarters finally started to be busy.
But a new batch of telegrams came one after another.
"The statistics of casualties have not yet been completed. Generally speaking, the casualties are not large."
"The captain of the Japanese aggressor alliance has been killed. Confirmed."
"The number of seizures has not yet been calculated."
"Prepare to transfer 1.2 million rounds of ammunition and 10,000 rounds of artillery shells to Cangyunling. Please send troops to receive them."
"The Yannan detachment has not yet engaged the enemy."
The chief of staff took the telegram and came to share it with the brigade commander.
The brigade commander finally felt relieved.
The telegram was sent by Zhao Gang, political commissar of the New Regiment.
"It seems that the new regiment has won a great victory! It wiped out a regiment of Japanese invaders with only a few casualties. They also captured so much ammunition..."
"The ammunition is probably not seized..."
"That……"
"It was probably that Zhang Chu who tinkered with it."
"Right!"
The chief of staff thought for a moment.
Indeed, it is impossible for a Japanese aggressor regiment to carry 1.2 million rounds of ammunition.
What's more, this was after a fierce battle.
The Japanese invaders fought fiercely one after another, and the ammunition was probably almost exhausted. It would be considered good to capture tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition.
There are dozens of cannonballs and so on, which is a great surprise.
The Japanese invaders were also very cunning in fighting and would not be easily captured by the Eighth Route Army.
"This Zhang Chu..."
"A very mysterious person."
"Should we..."
"No. Since he is willing to follow Li Yunlong, let him follow Li Yunlong."
"Then I will arrange for the troops to receive the ammunition now..."
"What happened to Li Yunlong?"
Suddenly, the boss's voice came.
But it was the boss who was out for a walk and happened to pass by here.
"Report to the boss!"
"good news!"
"Li Yunlong's new regiment cooperated with other troops and completely wiped out the Japanese invaders Kasahara Regiment!"
The chief of staff reported immediately.
I almost made an own mistake last time. I learned my lesson this time.
The boss was obviously taken aback.
It took a full five seconds for him to come to his senses.
"Total annihilation of the Japanese Kasahara Regiment?"
"Yes."
"Total annihilation? A regiment?"
"right!"
The chief of staff answered in the affirmative.
The boss looked at the brigade commander. Apparently he found the news a bit unbelievable.
As the boss, Rao was also very shocked.
After all, it was an infantry regiment of the Japanese invaders!
The brigade commander said calmly: "The battle has just ended. Zhao Gang, the political commissar of the new regiment, sent information. They confirmed that the commander of the regiment, Kasahara Koizumi, has been killed."
"Have you calculated the statistics of enemy annihilation?" The boss was still very cautious.
"not yet."
"Get statistics as soon as possible. The data must be accurate and cannot be generalized."
"OK."
the chief of staff replied.
The boss paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.
In fact, he believed in the results of the battle. The Eighth Route Army did not have the habit of falsely reporting military exploits.
If Li Yunlong dares to falsely report his military exploits, the brigade commander will be the first to punish him!
Facts have proved that although Li Yunlong made constant mistakes, he never made any mistakes of principle.
Walk slowly to the map.
I picked up the red pencil and put an X on the Kasahara United mark.
Erase it from now on.
"Ping'an County..."
The boss was thoughtful.
Let’s look at the southeast of Ping’an County.
A large number of Japanese reinforcements are arriving in a steady stream.
There are a total of three independent mixed brigades, one division, and one heavy artillery regiment.
aggressive.
Determined to win.
"What's the next step for the new group?"
"Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang reported before that they were preparing to withdraw to the Wutai Mountain area and join Ding Wei..."
"this is not good!"
The boss shook his head decisively.
The brigade commander and chief of staff remained silent.
"We cannot lead the enemy to the old base of the 115th Division. We must find a way to solve it ourselves."
"clear!"
"Tell Li Yunlong to think carefully about his next move. If the enemy can attack, he can attack too! The devils will fight the devils, and we will fight our own."
"right!"
The brigade commander's eyes lit up.
After all, the boss is the boss. He always has murderous intentions.
The Japanese invaders have too many reinforcements, and the new regiment cannot defeat them. They must retreat. But retreat does not mean running away blindly.
We can also attack!
Since the New Regiment was able to destroy the Kasahara Regiment, it shows that they already possess extremely strong combat effectiveness.
Then, it is completely possible to attack in other directions.
There are other county towns around Ping'an County. The Japanese garrison in each county town is about one brigade.
If it were before, the new regiment probably wouldn't have the ability to conquer the county.
But now, you can definitely consider it.
Your large Japanese invaders came to attack me. I avoided you. I went to attack your other counties.
You hit yours.
I hit mine.
You are always following behind me.
"chief of staff……"
"Can consider it!"
"Then send a telegram to the new group and ask them to attack in another direction!"
"good!"
The chief of staff went immediately.
The boss put his hands behind his back and was pacing slowly.
The brigade commander stopped talking.
"By the way, boss, it's about the telegraph operator..."
"It has been arranged. But the headquarters does have difficulties. It cannot spare so many operators at once."
"That……"
"Now a group of progressive students have been organized outside and are ready to be sent to the headquarters to study. But there may be some twists and turns on the way. They won't arrive so quickly. Even if they do arrive, they will need to be trained for at least half a year."
"Understood."
The brigade commander secretly regretted it.
There was no radio station or operator before. I don’t feel any regrets.
Now there is a radio station but no operator. I immediately felt impatient.
After all, there are radio stations. How can we do it without people?
The problem is that the operator holds the core secrets. He must be a very trustworthy person.
This kind of person cannot be cultivated at once.
Moreover, one must have a high level of culture.
Therefore, in a short period of time, they could only assign operators to the new regiment.
Other units will still be conveyed through Xinyi Tuan.
The chief of staff returned.
Received three more telegrams from the new group.
"The 357th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was controlled by the Japanese invaders. It has been disbanded. The regiment leader Chen Feng and the deputy commander Wang Xinjue are missing. It has been confirmed that the deputy commander Wang Xinjue has rebelled and surrendered to the enemy."
"Shoot down two Japanese planes."
"Preliminary statistics show that about 500 of our troops have died and more than 900 have been injured."
The chief of staff finished speaking in one breath.
The brigade commander's heart was finally relieved.
Fortunately, the casualties of the new regiment were not large. The sacrifice of more than 500 people was acceptable.
After all, it was a single unit that wiped out the Japanese invaders!
He thought before that at least a thousand people would die. That would be more damaging to his vitality.
"What happened to the 357th Regiment?"
"The telegram didn't say anything clearly. It just said that it was controlled by the Japanese invaders."
"Ask them to write a detailed report and send it back. Zhao Gang will be personally responsible for this matter."
"good!"
"Find a way to help the new regiment replenish its troops. You make a report and I'll sign it!"
"clear!"
The brigade commander responded with a smile.
This is the highest reward for a boss.
I'm happy that you won the battle. I'll help you replenish the people.
This supplementary person is not a random militia, or a guerrilla, or a temporary recruitment of soldiers.
The supplement promised by the boss is to recruit "veterans" with at least half a year of military service.
Sacrifice 500 men, and I will replenish 500 men for you. This way you can maintain your fighting capacity.
Of course, other troops may have opinions.
But it’s useless to have opinions.
If you have an opinion, you will win the battle.
If you win the battle, I will supplement it for you! If you lose the battle, shut up!
The boss is so direct.
"In addition..." the boss thought about it, and then said after a moment, "we will transfer ten students from the fifth branch of the Anti-Japanese University to the new group. Li Yunlong will assign them."
"Thank you, boss!" the brigade commander suddenly smiled.
This reward is very important.
Ten students from the fifth branch of the Anti-Japanese University are fully capable of serving as company commanders.
The value of this fifth branch is not as high as that of the first branch of Kangda University where Zhao Gang is located. The level is also relatively low. But being a company commander is definitely no problem.
Individual outstanding ones can even be directly appointed as deputy battalion commander or battalion commander.
The key is that these students are all extremely outstanding seeds!
If we let them develop independently, everyone can form a company, a battalion, or even a regiment!
"There's a situation!"
"Report from the front, the Japanese invaders Matsui and Horikawa Regiment are showing signs of breaking out!"
The chief of staff is back.
Also brought back the latest developments from the front line.
"Oh?" The boss's eyes lit up, "It seems that Li Yunlong has really done a big job!"
"The Japanese invaders are worried that these two regiments will make the same mistakes again. So..." the brigade commander nodded, and then looked resolute, "But it's not that easy for them to escape! Chief of Staff, order the troops to stop them resolutely! Regardless of the Japanese
No matter which direction we want to break through, we have to peel off its skin!"
