The brigade commander was actually a little reluctant to part with him.
This is a treasure land of Feng Shui! We have eliminated so many Japanese invaders!
Sakata United...
Matsui United...
Horikawa United...
The Japanese invaders lost three regiments and killed three colonel commanders!
After final confirmation, the total number of Japanese invaders eliminated was more than 9,000. This was a quite brilliant victory.
Even Chongqing sent a congratulatory message.
He also said that he was going to send people to visit and study. He also said that he would give awards to those who have made meritorious service. Unfortunately, no one took him seriously. The brigade commander knew very well what kind of urine there was.
Among them, the 386th Brigade was the main force and played the entire game.
The brigade commander was very satisfied with this result.
I haven't fought such a happy battle for a long time. Finally, the Japanese were able to taste the power of the Eighth Route Army.
This is called a war of annihilation!
This is the most enjoyable game!
but!
The journey has just begun!
There are also new combat missions! We must strive for greater victory!
The next target is the Japanese 26th Division!
This is a big battle and a tough battle. The brigade headquarters must be in command from the front.
"Can't bear to part with it?"
"Reluctant to give up."
"Maybe the next place is better."
"to your regards!"
"Headquarters hasn't called back yet."
"Hold on!"
The brigade commander said slowly.
He also knew that the headquarters would not easily agree to this matter.
After all, they were the cadre of students who were to be sent to Yan'an. How could it be so easy for Li Yunlong to cut off Hu? Even if it was jointly signed by four regiment leaders!
However, the headquarters will definitely consider this matter seriously.
Because four regiment leaders jointly requested it, it shows that the front line really needs talents.
The tank force is a technical branch. Without culture, it is really difficult to handle it.
Is three hundred students enough? It's definitely not enough.
There will be more tanks. There will be more howitzers. Maybe even planes...
All of these require cultural knowledge.
In other words, the overall policy must be changed. More educated youth must be attracted.
It is necessary to import a large number of talents from the Pingjin area...
All these must be considered comprehensively. It cannot be decided by the brigade headquarters or the frontline headquarters.
"It's okay to only give fifty."
"Hopefully!"
The brigade commander was not so optimistic.
His premonition was very keen. There was no reply to the telegram from headquarters.
There was no response until they arrived at the new headquarters.
The chief of staff then stopped mentioning the matter.
…
In fact, the headquarters at this moment is also waiting for a call back from a higher level.
They have forwarded the corresponding telegram. But they have no right to make the decision.
Although, they support Li Yunlong and others.
"Can some cadres be transferred from other places?" The boss frowned and pondered.
After a slight pause, he continued: "Anti-Kang University branch?"
"They've all been distributed."
"All right……"
The boss is very sorry.
Li Yunlong's report came at the wrong time.
If there are any remaining students at the Kangda University branch, he will definitely arrange them. There is absolutely no problem in letting reserve cadres drive tanks.
"It seems that we need to step up our work in the Ping-Tianjin area."
"We can also step up work in the Jiangnan area. We can ask the Shandong Military Region and the New Fourth Army to assist."
"There are many scholars in Jiangnan, so they can help us effectively."
The deputy chief of staff's methodical advice.
The boss nodded.
"That's it!"
"Please ask the East China Bureau and the Yangtze River Bureau to strengthen relevant work."
The boss makes a decision.
Then my mind returned to the Japanese 29th Division.
The current situation is a bit complicated.
To the north, the 120th Division was mobilizing troops and generals in preparation for besieging the Japanese 26th Division.
In the middle, the 386th Brigade, several other brigades, and the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region were also deploying troops and generals to prepare for the siege of the Japanese 29th Division.
These are the two divisions.
Although they are all three divisions, their combat effectiveness is still very strong.
Especially the 29th Division. It had been stationed in Taiyuan before. It was Shinozuka Yoshio's "Yorin Army". It had more people and better equipment.
The key is that this division is very cautious in marching and fighting. It has not suffered a major blow so far.
According to intelligence data, there are still 20,000 people in the 29th Division.
The division commander Masataka Yamawaki seemed to have sensed the danger, so he began to shrink his troops and prepare for defense.
This is not a good thing for the Eighth Route Army.
Once the Japanese invaders shrink back and enter a defensive state, it will be difficult to fight later.
Cangyunling fought two regiments, or two regiments without heavy weapons, both of which were quite anxious. Let alone three regiments?
Moreover, the railway lines were in the hands of the Japanese invaders.
Reinforcements from the Japanese invaders will arrive at any time. Then the Eighth Route Army will be counterattacked and surrounded.
"Where is the 108th Division?"
"Still in Shouyang."
"Where is the 109th Division?"
"Still in Yangquan?"
"You didn't even move?"
"Nothing moved."
The deputy chief of staff replied.
It is quite interesting that these two divisions stood still.
Why don't they attack?
What are they waiting for?
Are you waiting for the Eighth Route Army to launch an action and then strike preemptively?
What if the Eighth Route Army encircled the 29th Division of the Japanese invaders? The two main divisions of the Japanese invaders quickly moved north to form a counter-encirclement against the Eighth Route Army?
Can't help but consider...
"How is the situation in Fan County?"
"The Wutaishan detachment is stepping up its attack."
"Order them to take it down directly! The bait has been left there for a long time and has lost its flavor."
"OK!"
The deputy chief of staff then asked the staff officer to send a report.
Before, I had been trying to use Fan County to lure the Japanese 29th Division into an ambush, but unfortunately, the Japanese never took the bait.
On the contrary, Yamawaki Masataka ordered the troops to retreat a little.
The tail of the troops never left the railway. If the situation went wrong, they could immediately retreat southward along the railway.
In case of a siege, you can rely on the railway to hold on and wait for reinforcements to arrive.
Obviously, the previous plan can no longer be implemented.
Keeping Fan County now has no effect. It is better to capture it directly.
In this way, the base areas will be completely connected.
It is still very beneficial to the future development of the situation. After all, we have a relatively stable base.
"It is expected that Fanxian County can be captured in one day."
"good!"
"south……"
"south……"
The boss hesitated.
The situation in the south is actually more complicated.
Li Yunlong and his four regiments faced off against three Japanese brigades.
On the Zhengtai Line, there are still two main divisions of the Japanese invaders. They may also go north at any time.
bar?
You can't stop it by force.
After all, those were the two main divisions of the Japanese invaders! Fifty thousand people in total!
How many people does Li Yunlong have?
Ten thousand people are needed to survive. Others are local armed forces.
"Report!"
"urgent telegram!"
Suddenly, a staff officer came quickly.
The deputy chief of staff hurriedly took it over, thinking it was a student matter.
result……
His face gradually turned grim.
Read each word carefully.
The boss suddenly felt that things were not simple.
"What's the matter?"
"There are different opinions above."
"Yeah?"
The boss took the telegram.
Sure enough, the telegram was drafted by someone himself. The content was relatively long.
The core content is just one. Don’t spread the stall too wide to avoid being unable to digest it and starving yourself to death.
Holding the telegram in his hand, the boss silently looked back at the map.
Indeed, the stall is a bit big.
Surround one on the north.
Surround one in the middle.
There are two more looking at the south.
These are all regular divisions. They do not include independent mixed brigades!
The use of troops is quite tight. There are not many reserves. If any unexpected situation occurs, it will be difficult to adjust.
Someone's concerns are not unreasonable.
"In this case, let's temporarily stop the attack on the 26th Division."
"Mobilize some troops to go south and join the battlefield against the 29th Division."
"At the same time, mobilize the Yanbei, Yannan and other detachments to go south to reinforce Li Yunlong and others."
The boss quickly made adjustments.
As for the 26th Division, you just need to keep an eye on it.
But this 29th Division must find a way to eat it because it goes too deep.
Organize and report.
Got approved.
So the troops immediately took action.
…
The headquarters of the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army.
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong walked around anxiously.
Chu Yuntian disappeared as soon as he left!
I've been out for more than ten days and I haven't come back yet!
Really!
Did he have an accident?
still……
Joined the Eighth Route Army?
What are you going to do if you leave the good team leader alone and go out randomly?
"chief of staff!"
"chief of staff!"
Suddenly, Qian Bojun, commander of the first battalion, arrived. Also Zhang Fugui, deputy commander of the first battalion.
The expressions on both of them were a bit strange. They were hesitant to speak.
"Say! What's the matter?"
"Chief of Staff, we heard some news..."
"What did you hear?"
"Let's sit down as a group..."
"What are you talking about?"
"Tell me, our regiment has defected to the Eighth Route Army."
"Nonsense!"
Fang Ligong frowned.
These two guys, do you have any evidence?
Behind the scenes, he said that the group leader was defecting to the Eighth Route Army. If the group leader found out...
Be careful to peel your skin!
"Where is Tuanzuo currently?" Fang Ligong asked again.
Neither Qian Bojun nor Zhang Fugui dared to answer.
Because I don't know.
They didn't know where Chu Yunfei was.
No information.
The so-called surrender to Tubal Road is also a guess.
The purpose was of course to give Chu Yunfei some eye drops. He wanted to get Chu Yunfei away.
"How is the situation of the 357th Regiment?" Fang Ligong changed the topic.
"It no longer exists." Qian Bojun answered bluntly.
"But its designation has not been revoked."
"The chief of staff means..."
Qian Bojun was not very happy.
Fang Ligong seems to want him to join the 357th Regiment?
To put it bluntly, it’s like this: If you want to be the leader of the 358th Regiment, it’s impossible. But you can consider joining the 357th Regiment...
Haha, they are all old foxes!
At this time, he actually helped protect Chu Yunfei!
Go to the 357th Group?
Qian Bojun didn't want to.
The 357th Regiment no longer exists. To be the leader of the regiment yourself is equivalent to starting from scratch and struggling to survive.
How could it be so exciting to be the commander of a battalion in the 358th Regiment?
Even if you beat me to death...
"chief of staff!"
"Urgent message from the war zone commander."
Suddenly a telegram came from a staff officer.
After Fang Ligong finished reading, his expression became even weirder.
However, the war zone commander directly ordered Chu Yunfei to concurrently serve as the commander of the 357th Regiment and rebuild the 357th Regiment.
Very strange command.
I don’t know what the above considerations were. Why should Chu Yunfei take on the concurrent role?
Can't we just send one person to be the group leader?
