273 What I’m most afraid of is that the enemy won’t care about me
...But on the other side, there is the Yangcun base area. Kong Jie has led the independent regiment to leave Yangcun for nearly a week.
The new second regiment’s residence.
Li Yunlong, who became a regular employee, can finally do something drastic.
New Second Regiment Headquarters.
The second day the independent group left Yangcun.
Li Yunlong, leader of the new second regiment, Zhao Gang, political commissar of the new second regiment, and Zhang Dabiao, commander of the first battalion of the new second regiment, are studying the future development direction of the new second regiment on the sand table map left by Kong Jie at the regiment headquarters.
First Battalion Commander Zhang Dabiao was the first to speak, "The foundation of the base area left by the regimental commander, political commissar, and commander Kong for our new second regiment is really good."
"I took people to explore the villages around our base area, and even the villages in the guerrilla areas that were opened up. Each village has established its own militia organization."
"Including militia military training, the militia can carry out defense training for each village at any time, and once the Japanese army launches a large-scale raid, the militia will assist the entire village in evacuation drill training. These are all done very well."
"Therefore, our focus in the next stage is on the military training of the entire regiment, so that the new soldiers who join the team can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. In this regard, we can also learn from Commander Kong's approach at the time and form a temporary recruit system.
Gather the new recruits who have just joined the army for study and military training."
Li Yunlong nodded and said with a smile: "With Lao Kong's original station, we have indeed saved a lot of time.
In addition, we also need to build our own enemy engineering department and integrate it with the intelligence organization within the regiment.
Regarding this point, I had already sent someone to contact Cao Wangde, the puppet battalion commander at the Yangquan stronghold at that time. Cao Wangde was quite cooperative, and the work of the enemy's Ministry of Industry started from him.
Old Zhao, you worked underground back then, so I leave it to you to establish the Enemy Industry Department and integrate it with the intelligence department within our regiment."
Li Yunlong had already seen Zhao Gang's abilities when he was in the Independent Regiment. Not only was he an excellent marksman, he was also very good at political work.
In addition, Zhao Gang also has many insights into military matters. The security work within the regiment and the work of the enemy's engineering department can be left to Zhao Gang.
Zhao Gang smiled and said: "Don't worry, Lao Li, just leave it to me."
"The rest is the construction of the base area." Li Yunlong said thoughtfully while smoking the cigarettes seized from the Japs and puffing on the smoke: "What we call this is to seize three sides at the same time. On the one hand, we seize military training, and on the other hand, we seize the people in the base area.
Defense work, while focusing on the construction of the base area, Lao Zhao, am I right?"
"That's about it, Lao Li, you are a senior in this field, I don't know as much as you do." Zhao Gang said modestly.
Li Yunlong said: "Military training is easy to say. Just like what Da Biao said, we are also temporarily building new recruits in the army. Whether it is a recruit camp or a recruit company, we strive to integrate these recruits into our new second regiment within a month.
This big collective."
"The defense construction work in the base area, in addition to the defense of our base area itself, naturally involves the construction of militia in the villages around the base area, as well as the basic defense methods in the villages."
"The foundation left by these old Confucius is good. Let's continue to develop according to this idea."
"As for the construction of the base area, to be honest, we just have to find ways to get money and equipment. On the one hand, we need to continue to reclaim some farmland in the base area. It just so happens that Lao Kong left 200 kilograms of high-quality potatoes. These potatoes must be used in the right season.
After that, you have to sow these potatoes."
"On the other hand, we have to find ways to get equipment and supplies."
Zhao Gang said: "This is not a problem. We engage in more side jobs, win battles, and capture more equipment and supplies."
Li Yunlong said happily: "Haha, Lao Zhao, you are so wise. I am just waiting for your words!"
Zhao Gang added: "Old Li, we just agreed that we can do side jobs, but we can't make too much noise. If it is a large-scale military operation, we still have to follow the procedures and report to the superiors first, and then obtain the approval of the superiors for the operation.
Only then can we take action.”
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Nothing to say, this is what it should be."
Large-scale military operations, what is large-scale military operations?
It’s not us, Lao Li, who has the final say! Lao Zhao is really interesting, leaving no loopholes for us, Lao Li, to get in.
This time our Lao Li has become a regular employee, so we have to let go and have a good time.
We can’t end up losing all our good reputation to that kid like Lao Kong.
"In addition, in addition to engaging in side businesses, the military construction and medical construction in our base areas must not be left behind." Zhao Gang said.
Li Yunlong deeply agreed, "Of course, our repair shop is still small in scale and the equipment is not complete enough. We don't dare to think about producing guns for the time being. Even making bullets is still very difficult. It's really not possible.
We will send people to the headquarters arsenal later to study.
Lao Kong did leave behind the technology of making seven-man back wooden handle grenades, and Dong San also left us the technology of how to extract explosives from fertilized field powder. These two items are the best foundation for our repair shop at present. Now that I have a way to make grenades and explosives, I will send some more manpower to the repair shop. The production of grenades and explosives cannot be stopped. The more the better.
Lao Zhao, think about it, if there are more than a thousand people in our regiment, and each soldier can carry more than ten grenades, hehe, Lao Li will be worthy of him in any battle."
In this way, Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, and Zhang Dabiao formulated the general development policy for the new second regiment.
Next, the new second group started various tasks in full swing.
Just like the three-faceted plan proposed by Li Yunlong, on the one hand, we are engaged in the defense and construction of the base area, on the other hand, we are engaged in the development and construction of the base area, and on the other hand, we are engaged in the military training of the combat troops in the base area.
Defense construction is the most worry-free, and the foundation left by Kong Jie is quite good.
There is nothing we can do about military training. After all, many new recruits have joined. Without adequate military training, it will be difficult to form combat effectiveness.

After formulating the general policy, Li Yunlong's main focus in the next few days was on his side business.
When issuing orders to the platoon leaders of each battalion, company, and platoon, Li Yunlong said this, "I'll leave it here for you. I don't care what your companies and platoons do. In one sentence, those who are capable eat meat, and those who are incompetent eat meat."
Don’t even worry about the soup.”
"The task for you during this period is just three words: engage in side business."
"Around our base area, as well as the major guerrilla areas that have been opened up, you are brave enough, and you even go directly to the enemy-occupied areas and counties. I don't care, as long as you can bring me the soldiers back, if you can
Then grab a few hundred guns and dozens of cannons, hey, congratulations, I still have to give you credit."
"From now on, the entire regiment will fight as a company and platoon unit. I don't care how the battle is fought. The company and platoon leader has the final say. Camping, ambushing, digging traps, saping, kidnapping, anyway, as long as you are facing the Japanese and traitors, you
You can do whatever you want, I can make it clear, and I will shoot anyone who does this to the common people."
Political commissar Zhao Gang on the side added: "This is our popular way of talking about guerrilla warfare. Don't misunderstand the meaning of the regiment leader."
"The main targets are the Japanese strongholds and transportation arteries in our base areas and guerrilla areas. The Japanese and puppet troops have hoarded a lot of equipment and supplies in these places, and we will definitely gain a lot from them."
"With these seizures, our New Second Regiment can continue to develop. This is why the regiment leader and I decided to carry out this large-scale division of troops to fight guerrillas."
"In addition, when the troops are divided into battles, the new recruits should follow at the end of the battle order. The veteran comrades should take more care of the new recruits. After the battlefield is captured, the extra weapons and ammunition can be distributed to the new recruits, and the new recruits should take care of them.
Be modest, follow the veterans, carefully study their combat experience, see the cruelty of the battlefield, sharpen your character as soon as possible, and grow up quickly."
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "That's what I mean. Did everyone hear what the political commissar said?"
"Yes!"
Cadres responded one after another.
On the second day after all the troops were sent out to fight guerrillas and capture, when Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were talking at the regiment headquarters, Zhao Gang said: "Old Li, I have always been a little worried. Our new second regiment has just been formed and we are carrying out guerrilla operations on such a large scale.
, is it appropriate?"
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "What's inappropriate about this? If the little Japs dare to put their stronghold in our territory, they must be prepared to be beaten. In our opinion, the Japs and puppet troops belong to our New Second Regiment."
Mobile arsenal and material depot."
Zhao Gang said: "We are afraid that our move will anger the Japanese army, and the Japanese army will launch a raid behind enemy lines against our new second regiment."
Li Yunlong said indifferently: "I'm just afraid that the little Japs won't come. Old Zhao, you have never led an army and don't know the situation. The more our Eighth Route Army troops have to deal with Japs and puppet troops, the better off we will be."
, why? Because they are seized from time to time!"
"If it is really the Japanese and puppet troops who have withdrawn from our guerrilla area, then I will have a headache, and the whole regiment will probably be hungry."
"Take our 386th Brigade as an example. The more fiercely the regiment fought against the Japanese and puppet troops, the better the equipment in that regiment. The weapons were replaced one after another, and the equipment that was eliminated was put aside.
If you go to other groups, you can be robbed as a treasure."
"So we, Lao Li, have never been afraid of the Japanese and the puppet soldiers, but we are afraid that the Japanese and the puppet soldiers are not worried about them."
"Speaking of which, the little devils have probably only heard of the reputation of the Independent Regiment and the New Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. After all, they were the troops led by Mr. Li and personally participated in the combat troops.
But now our new second regiment has just been established and has no reputation at all. If we don’t take the initiative to gain some reputation and attract the Japanese and puppet troops, how will we live in the future?"
