Chapter 346 Li Yunlong: I can't give Kong Er Lengzi a part-time job for nothing
"If the mopping up troops directly evacuate our base area, then we will win!" Li Wensheng suddenly interrupted, with an uncontrollable smile on his face.
Kong Jie then said: "No matter whether the Japanese and puppet troops withdraw or have other purposes, we must prepare for the enemy in advance!"
"I order...all the local troops along the highway to take action to destroy the only way for the Japanese and puppet troops to evacuate the base area, lay mines, and slow down their retreat."
"The first battalion stayed at the regiment headquarters...the 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 assault battalions each organized two infantry companies and an artillery platoon directly under the battalion. They replenished ammunition on the spot and brought all the equipment. They were personally commanded by the battalion commanders to prepare for reinforcements.
battlefield!"
"The 234th Battalion, the assault battalion, is commanded by Xiao Huang and is responsible for raiding the Japanese and puppet troops on the left... The 56th Battalion and the Guard Battalion are personally commanded by me and are responsible for raiding the Japanese and puppet troops on the right."
"The artillery battalion and the cavalry battalion serve as reserves!"
"The chief of staff stayed at the regiment headquarters to deliver ammunition supplies to the frontline troops and transport the wounded..."
"Inform Lao Li and Lao Ding of this situation and ask them to continue attacking the blockade until the Japanese and puppet troops withdraw from our base area."
"Then we will report to the brigade headquarters our plans to completely annihilate the Japanese and puppet troops in the middle and prepare to raid the left and right mopping up troops..."
At the enemy headquarters of the New Second Regiment, Li Yunlong didn't know that he had been targeted by Yoshio Shinozuka and was treated as a soft persimmon by him.
Looking at the getting darker and hotter outside, I felt very anxious and looked up at the radio station from time to time.
"Lao Li, it's still early, there will definitely be no problems with the Independent Regiment!" Political Commissar Zhao Gang consoled him.
"You still don't know that Lao Kong, he never fights an uncertain battle!"
"Since he has decided to fight today, he must be confident of winning..."
"Besides, it's more beneficial for us to fight after dark... It's not necessarily that Lao Kong deliberately delayed the final battle until dark!"
Li Yunlong shook his head: "That being said, this battle is too important!"
"It is related to the safety of our three regiments... There are still many advantages in the hands of the Japanese army. No one dares to guarantee it until the last moment..."
"Didi...didi..."
The quiet radio station suddenly rang, and the signal lights began to flash.
As soon as the telegraph operator translated the last word of the telegram, Li Yunlong snatched it over, glanced at the contents of the telegram and smiled.
"Haha... Kong Erluzi fought this battle well... The puppet army lasted for more than 3,000 days, and he killed it as soon as he was told. He is worthy of being an old comrade from the same class as Lao Li..."
Zhao Gang immediately flashed a wry smile.
Li Yunlong is too good at putting gold on his face. Kong Jie won a big victory, so it's none of his business. His face is thicker than the city wall.
But he did not dwell too much on this issue. He analyzed the telegram while reading: "After the decisive battle, the other two mopping up troops that were reinforcing the battlefield suddenly turned around and retreated..."
"Based on what we know about the Japanese army, they are probably afraid of the combat effectiveness of the independent regiments. They are afraid that they will lose thousands more people for no reason, so they have to withdraw their troops and stop the raid!"
"As long as we continue to attack the blockade and cooperate with the independent group to force the Japanese and puppet troops out of their base areas, we will win this counter-mopping campaign!"
Li Yunlong did not answer, but frowned and fell into deep thought.
Zhao Gang thought Li Yunlong had discovered something wrong, and his good mood was suddenly replaced by nervousness. He quickly asked: "Old Li, was what I just said wrong?"
"You are right, there is no problem!" Li Yunlong suddenly reacted.
"Then what were you thinking about just now and you didn't reply to me?" Zhao Gang asked confused.
"I think after the battle, let's ask Lao Kong what kind of compensation he wants!" Li Yunlong did not hide his thoughts and said with a look of anticipation.
"If Zhang Dabiao hadn't helped Kong Erluzi to hold back the mopping up troops on the left, and if we hadn't attacked the Japanese and puppet blockade, the decisive battle this afternoon would definitely not have been possible."
"So the New Second Regiment also contributed a lot to this victory!"
"You should share the spoils!"
"Let me think about it: we have been attacking the blockade for several days, but we have only consumed it but not captured it..."
"More than 200 soldiers died alone. No matter what, there were 200,000 rounds of ammunition, 5,000 grenades, 500 rifles, 20 light machine guns, five heavy machine guns, five mortars, and two
infantry cannon."
"Zhang Dabiao led people to reinforce the Independent Regiment, and also used his identity as an independent regiment to fight the Japanese. The losses must be considerable. Ask him again for 100,000 rounds of ammunition, 2,000 grenades, 200 rifles, and 10 light machine guns.
Two heavy machine guns, two mortars, one mountain cannon... probably not many..."
"I heard that the Japanese mopping up troops brought a lot of heavy artillery and field artillery. If they are all captured by Kong Er, I will definitely divide them into two or three!"
"That's it. After the battle, I will go to the Independent Regiment to ask for equipment and ammunition..."
"Kong Erlu didn't give me two or three heavy artillery pieces, four infantry cannons, seven mortars, seven heavy machine guns, seven hundred rifles, three hundred thousand rounds of ammunition, and seven thousand hand grenades. I would live in his independent home."
The group is not leaving!"
Although Zhao Gang felt that Li Yunlong's behavior was a bit bad, the New Second Regiment did pay a huge price in this counter-mopping up.
If there is no supplement, the combat potential of the army will definitely be weakened a lot.
Looking at Li Yunlong with a proud look on his face, Zhao Gang wanted to persuade him to order less, just make up for the loss as he wished, and don't go too far, but he swallowed the words as soon as they came to his lips.
He is the political director of the New Second Regiment, and the logistics department is under his direct control. No one wants the New Second Regiment to have more ammunition reserves than he does!
In the end, they decided not to express any opinions on this matter and let the three old comrades divide the spoils among themselves.
At the 386th Brigade Headquarters, dinner has been put on the table, but the brigade commander has no appetite or thoughts at all.
Either pacing back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, or standing in front of the map and staring at the location of Baipogou, his expression nervous and anxious!
"Brigadier...good news...Kong Jie and the others have won..." Chief of Staff Zhou rushed into the war room like a wind, shouting as he ran, with a smile on his face.
"The three thousand Japanese puppet troops who entered the pocket formation, from the captain of the Great Left Alliance to the soldiers of the Second Japanese Army, none of them slipped through the net, and they were all wiped out!"
Correct
"This is the good news just sent by Kong Jie..."
"The remaining two mopping up troops of the Japanese army stopped reinforcing Baipogou. They suddenly stopped advancing and retreated!"
"It's not clear yet what their true purpose is... Kong Jie has already sent people to investigate, and he is also laying a large number of landmines and building blocking positions on the only way for the Japanese and puppet troops to evacuate the base area..."
"I plan to cut off a few more pieces of fat on the way the Japanese and puppet troops retreat!"
"Let the Japanese and puppet troops know: our Eighth Route Army base is not a hotel where they can come and leave whenever they want!"
"As long as you enter the base area, you will have to shed a layer of skin even if you don't die!"
The brigade commander received the message with great anticipation, and sighed as he read it: "Four 105mm heavy artillery pieces were also captured... Okay... With them, the independent regiment will be able to form a veritable heavy artillery company right away..."
"Four field guns were seized...two large-caliber mortars..."
"Kong Jie has really made a fortune this time... I guess it won't be long before the telegram that the artillery battalion of the Independent Regiment is expanded into a heavy artillery battalion will be sent to us!"
"We didn't wait in vain this afternoon, we can finally have a good meal..."
"Call Kong Jie back immediately: seize the time to find out the latest movements of the left and right sweep forces. The faster the better, report any situation to the brigade headquarters as soon as possible!"
"When raiding the retreating Japanese and puppet troops, the independent regiment must control casualties!"
"We must not let the troops suffer!"
"If you have the chance, fight. If you don't have the chance, don't go head-to-head with the little devil!"
"The Independent Regiment killed more than 5,000 Japanese puppet troops in one battle and successfully shattered Yoshio Shinozuka's carefully planned sweep. Yoshio Shinozuka will never let them go!"
"As long as the independent group continues to grow and develop, there will be plenty of enemy attacks in the future, and we don't care about one or two small wins!"
"Forward Kong Jie's telegram to the headquarters to make the bosses happy too!"
At the headquarters of the independent regiment, less than three hours after the reorganization order was issued, the second battalion commander Xiao Yuanchang rushed in: "Captain, the second battalion has been ordered to complete the reorganization!"
"I organized the sixth company, the battalion headquarters guard platoon, and the baggage train, and the remaining soldiers were all added to the fourth and fifth companies. Each company has a full strength of 180 people, plus the artillery platoon directly under the battalion headquarters, and the submachine gun squad directly under the battalion headquarters.
, a total of four hundred people... ready to go at any time!"
After a while, the third battalion, the fourth battalion... all rushed to the regiment headquarters, waiting for Kong Jie to give the order to attack.
Li Wensheng was counting the troops and equipment that each battalion had just reported. He put down his pen and said to Kong Jie: "Commander, in addition to the third battalion, the sixth battalion, and the assault battalion, the total strength after reorganization is 350 people. The fourth battalion,
The fifth battalion and the second battalion have a total strength of 400 people after reorganization!"
"The guard battalion has a full strength of 650 people, a total of 2,900 people..."
"Equipment with twenty-eight mortars and thirty heavy machine guns..."
"In order to gather these heavy weapons, I took out most of the heavy machine guns and mortars we just captured!"
"All kinds of ammunition have been replenished. Each soldier is equipped with a hundred rounds of ammunition, three grenades and grenades, and each mortar is equipped with thirty rounds of shells. This should be enough to fight a tough battle!"
Kong Jie nodded, then turned his attention to these battalion commanders: "Do you all understand your mission?"
"Clear!" several people replied in unison.
"Then let's set off now, get to the battlefield as soon as possible, and kill the Japanese as soon as possible!"
"Strive for every soldier who participates in the war to kill another Japanese and puppet army!"
"Let's go...leader...wait a moment..."
As soon as Kong Jie stepped out with his right foot, the operator Zhang Xuelin suddenly shouted from behind.
"There is an emergency on the front line... Although the mopping up troops turned around, they did not evacuate the base area. Looking at their marching direction, they seemed to be heading towards the base area of the New Second Regiment!"
"Are we going to mop up the troops all the way to the New Second Regiment, or are we going to mop up the troops all the way to the New Second Regiment at the same time?" Kong Jie was startled by this news and asked quickly.
"Kill all the mopping up troops from both directions!" Zhang Xuelin replied while handing the electric board to Kong Jie.
