889 Surprise attack on Japanese artillery test and processing plant!
..."Brother Zhongshan, please rest assured, I will always remember the equipment!
Urging, of course I am urging. I have been urging Li Yunlong every three days. In addition, I have already sent a report and application to the headquarters, but now it is being reviewed and approved. It is estimated that it will take some time.
Just wait for me for a while, don't worry, it will be over in a month or two at most."
Headquarters of the 57th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army.
Bang, after hanging up the phone, Yang Chongshan, the leader of the 57th Regiment, was once again talked about in a few words, with a depressed look on his face.
When attacking the Huting stronghold, the unruly Li Yunlong took the opportunity to seize a battalion, plus half of the artillery battalion's equipment.
Yang Chongshan had opened his mouth to Kong Jie for the 456th time, but in the end he was still pushed back.
Lao Yang is no longer naive.
I won’t say any more nonsense about Commander Kong being a real person.
I can only curse a few words when there are no outsiders, "Grandma, this evil Li Yunlong!"
"Old Qian, I finally figured out that Kong Jie is still covering up for Li Yunlong overtly or covertly. I'm afraid the equipment we lost will never come back!"
Deputy leader Qian Shoucai was holding back a joke in his heart: My dear members of the group! Did you realize the situation just now? What a cover-up, if you ask me, I’m afraid Kong Jie and Li Yunlong would have already gone to divide the spoils! On the surface, he was as steady as an old dog. He had an idea, smiled and comforted him: "Tuan Zuo, let me tell you, everything about this matter is self-evident.
We want to get this equipment back, but it seems impossible now.
It's better not to ask for it. If you ask for too much and annoy Kong Jie, it won't be a good idea.
It's better to bring this up occasionally and treat it as something Kong Jie owes us. There will always be a way to make up for this loss in the future.
In addition, this time we captured the Huting stronghold, the 57th Regiment was well rewarded by the superiors. Especially for the losses of weapons and ammunition we reported, our superiors also made special supplements.
Based on this calculation, we have not lost anything."
Yang Chongshan thought about it, that was the case, and nodded.
The matter of asking Kong Jie for equipment has been put on hold for the time being.
On the other side, Kong Jie was quick to respond. Since he agreed to Li Yunlong, he would help the New Second Regiment form a rapid reaction force.
Action was immediately put on the agenda.
A few days later, through the transportation channel from the first team's base to the new second regiment's base, Kong Jie's general Wang Shoucheng and the mechanized combat battalion led by Wang Shoucheng were also equipped with hundreds of military armored vehicles, cars, motorcycles and other modified vehicles.
All sent to the New Second Group.
At this time, Li Yunlong, who had been completely attracted by the temptation of the commander of the Taihang Rapid Reaction Force, received Kong Jie's support and started training and strengthening this mechanized combat force non-stop.
Lao Li carried out military reforms in the entire New Second Regiment.
Even the original cavalry company of his regiment, including the tank company, was specially transformed and merged into the mechanized combat force.
In addition, in order to completely build his entire regiment into a rapid reaction force, Li Yunlong also risked his old face and asked Kong Jie for mechanized combat vehicles.
Then he turned to Ding Wei and asked for 50 bicycles.
In Li Yunlong’s boastful words:
"Every soldier in our new second regiment must keep their feet off the ground. Only then can we truly form a mechanized combat force!"
I have been training like this for more than half a month.
Looking at the soldiers of the mechanized combat force who were full of fighting spirit, Li Yunlong couldn't sit still. He decided to do something, do something in northwest Shanxi, even beyond the boundaries of northwest Shanxi, so he could still do something.
When the headquarters was studying the battle map on how to fight the first battle of the mechanized combat force.
Political commissar Zhao Gang said:
"Old Li, the rapid reaction force we have built is strong in mobility, sophisticated equipment, and superior firepower.
However, there is a necessary prerequisite for the actions of mechanized combat forces, and that is to be supported by sufficient and accurate intelligence.
Otherwise, we will be like a headless fly, and it will even bring us greater combat risks.
If our team is exposed in advance, if the Japanese army uses air power, once the Japanese planes discover our mechanized combat troops, it will be no joke!"
Li Yunlong took it seriously and said: "Old Zhao, don't worry, it's just intelligence. Our intelligence system in the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle has developed very well over the years.
I don’t believe that we can’t get useful information.”
In the past few days, Li Yunlong has also been waiting for information.
The intelligence lines of the entire New Second Regiment have been activated by him.
Lao Li’s plan this time is not small.
"I heard that the little devils stationed in the First Army in Shanxi have a fairly large artillery experimental factory and processing factory.
If our mechanized combat troops can rely on their advantages in mobility and firepower, they can take down the Japanese artillery testing grounds and processing plants by surprise.
I think our team’s first battle will be enough to shock the whole of North China!"
It's just that the intelligence aspect is not that easy.
For this reason, Li Yunlong also called Ding Wei and Kong Jie to inquire.
As a result, Ding Wei and Kong Jie shook their heads helplessly, failing to obtain any relevant information about the Japanese army's artillery testing ground and processing plant.
On the phone, Kong Jie came up with an idea for Li Yunlong: "Old Li, you said you were smart all your life, but you were confused for a while.
If you want information, what's the use of looking for other people?
If I want to find you, I should go to the old brigade commander. Our brigade commander is a big shot with a background in intelligence. What information do you want that he doesn’t have?"
After hanging up the phone, Li Yunlong thought about it and realized that what Kong Jie said was indeed reasonable.
Finally gritting his teeth, as if he had made up his mind, Li Yunlong shouted to the Communications Department: "Correspondent, answer the call from the Brigade Headquarters!"
"Hey, haha, it's me, it's me, old brigade commander, I'm Li Yunlong!"
On the other end of the phone, the brigade commander seemed to be in a good mood and said with a smile: "Li Yunlong, it's rare that you can take the initiative to call me?"
"Old brigade commander, look at what you said. I'm thinking of you after not seeing you for two days. Why don't I make a special phone call to catch up on old times? Otherwise, I'd be sleeping because I miss you.
I can’t sleep well!”
The brigade commander smiled and scolded: "Don't do this to me, Li Yunlong, after so many years, you stick your butt out, I still don't know what you are going to fart?
If there is nothing serious, would you be willing to take the initiative to come to me?"
"Haha, old brigade commander, how about you understand me!" Li Yunlong, who was directly exposed by the words, stated his request honestly.
The brigade commander was silent for a moment, and then said: "Create a rapid reaction force directly under our Taihang base area.
Li Yunlong, your idea is quite advanced and quite good.
After you reported this matter half a month ago, I also told the boss about this matter in detail, and the boss also expressed his special support for building your new second regiment into a rapid reaction force.
It's just that you kid can't mess around with me.
It has only taken half a month. Are you sure that the mechanized combat force you have built has already formed combat effectiveness?
Is it enough to deal with complex and severe combat situations?"
Li Yunlong vowed to express his position: "Please rest assured, old brigade commander, there is absolutely no problem, we will not make fun of the lives of the soldiers!"
With Li Yunlong's guarantee, the brigade commander felt relieved and said, "There is indeed information about the artillery testing ground and processing plant of the Japanese First Army!"
Hahaha——
On the other end of the phone, Li Yunlong was overjoyed and said cheerfully: "As expected of the old brigade commander, no wonder everyone says that you, old brigade commander, are the clairvoyant and the ear of the wind in the myth.
You will know what the Japanese emperor eats for lunch and what tea he drinks as soon as he turns his head.
I am completely convinced!"
"Li Yunlong, don't put your hat on me. I still don't know about your little ninety-nine? Let me tell you, I have not forgotten the story of your kid taking down the Huting stronghold.
You promised to send me the materials you promised on the phone, including the equipment of the artillery battalion of the 57th Regiment of the Shanxi-Sui Army, but you haven't sent it to me yet, have you?"
Li Yunlong: "..."
Lao Li is depressed. Yes, I knew this would happen.
This is why he never dared to call and ask the brigade commander for information.
Finally, the call was hung up. Looking at Li Yunlong who looked depressed, Zhao Gang came over and asked doubtfully: "Why, Lao Li, the brigade commander doesn't have any information about the Japanese artillery testing ground and processing plant?"
"Yes, yes!" Li Yunlong said.
"Then why do you still look unhappy?" Zhao Gang asked.
Li Yunlong said with a bitter look on his face: "With this call, the intelligence problem of the Japanese Artillery Experimental Factory has been solved, but we, Old Li, have lost a lot of supplies, as well as the artillery seized from the 57th Regiment!" p>
"Ahem, can you keep delaying what the brigade commander wants? Think of it as buying information!" Zhao Gang laughed.
"Old Zhao, why didn't I realize before that you are so good at comforting people?"
A smile uglier than crying appeared on Lao Li's face.
I secretly held my breath in my heart: You little bastards are the fault of you. If I take down your little devil’s artillery testing ground and processing plant this time, I will have to make a lot of money.
...This information is really expensive.
The brigade commander, who was extremely efficient in his actions, sent a messenger two days later to deliver an encrypted special information to the New Second Regiment and into the hands of Li Yunlong.
New Second Regiment Headquarters.
When I opened the relevant intelligence document sent by the brigade commander, it contained a map and a detailed military deployment plan, plus some special information described in text.
The map is obviously hand-drawn, and the brigade commander is indeed surrounded by talented people. This hand-drawn map is quite accurate, and even the specific scale is clearly marked.
In the end, the core of the entire map was placed in Santai Township, which is particularly sandwiched in the central area.
A small village.
It may not seem like much, but it was clearly stated in the information sent by the brigade commander.
The largest artillery testing and processing factory of the Japanese First Army is secretly located in Santai Township.
In addition, the brigade commander also sent a special military defense map of the Japanese near Santai Township.
Including near Santai Township, in order to ensure the safety of the artillery processing plant and testing ground, it is clear what strongholds the Japanese have built, how many troops are stationed there, and even the firepower configuration of some strongholds.
Looking at such detailed intelligence, Zhao Gang couldn't help but sigh: "As expected of one of the Three Heroes of Huangpu, the brigade commander's work in intelligence is simply amazing."
This also made Zhao Gang secretly make up his mind that he must learn from the brigade commander and try to help Lao Li in intelligence work.
She is indeed Lao Li’s best wife!
After Li Yunlong thoroughly studied the information sent by the brigade commander, his initially depressed mood was immediately thrown away.
"Haha, we know that there is nothing in this world that is difficult for the brigade commander to live in! Although the old brigade commander's information is a bit expensive, I have to say that it is worth the price!"
Li Yunlong was amazed. Old Li always admired the brigade commander.
Otherwise, why would Li Yunlong, who was so fearless, meet the brigade commander again and again, like a mouse meeting a cat!
This is called all-round suppression and resignation.
Li Yunlong has a pragmatic side to his character.
"Those who are capable eat meat, but those who are incompetent don't even think about soup."
This is Li Yunlong’s best interpretation of pragmatism.
When Zhao Gang first joined the Independent Regiment as a political commissar, he would have been quite extraordinary if it weren't for his marksmanship, as well as his military analysis, knowledge, and strategy.
According to Li Yunlong's unruly temperament, how could he and Zhao just want to wear a pair of pants?
"Lao Li, what do you want to do next?" Zhao Gang asked.
"Now that we have mechanized combat troops, we also have detailed information.
What is this called?
This means that everything is ready, all we need is the east wind!"
Lao Li, who had not neglected his cultural studies, said something.
Zhao Gang asked curiously: "So what is this east wind?"
Li Yunlong raised two fingers, then turned around and searched around the headquarters.
"Old Li, what are you looking for?"
"Fan!"
"What are you looking for a fan for?"
"How about we call it Feather Fan Lunjin? How about we imitate Zhuge Kongming?"
Zhao Gang: "..."
Zhao Gang had to admit that he had indeed made great progress in cultural studies in the past six months since he was greatly stimulated by Kong Jie, who had been studying culture, and then Lao Li, who became angry.
"There are two east winds we are waiting for.
This first shareholder style was created by Lao Kong a few years ago, which is the commando team led by Duan Peng.
This is a team similar to the Yamamoto Secret Service back in the day.
It is most suitable for carrying out such raids and sabotage operations with clear goals.
Although our New Second Regiment has also built a similar sharp knife force, due to the short training time, it is still not as good as Lao Kong's commando team, so this time we borrowed Duan Peng and the others for use.
Cooperate with our mechanized combat troops."
Li Yunlong continued: "As for this second shareholder style!
The commotion that Lao Kong is going to make this time will definitely be big. He is heading towards the Japs' major strongholds throughout northwest Shanxi.
As far as our Eighth Route Army is concerned, I know that there are seven or eight regiments of the main force that are preparing to act with a team this time.
When the battle begins, the entire northwest of Shanxi will definitely turn into a mess.
The Japanese are going around to reinforce their strongholds and are busy dealing with Lao Kong and the others, so our opportunity has come.
With these two trends, we, Lao Li, are bound to take advantage of this opportunity to destroy the largest artillery testing ground and processing plant of the Japanese First Army!"
Zhao Zhang listened in a daze, and then sighed in his heart:
No wonder the superiors have been asking the military cadres leading the troops not to stop studying cultural knowledge.
Ever since he read books, learned how to read, and even delved into some art of war and understood tactical theories, Lao Li has become more and more comfortable and convincing in fighting.
In Li Yunlong’s words: “Before I went to school, we, Lao Li, knew how to fight this battle, but if you ask us why we fought this battle like this, I really couldn’t explain.
But after reading the book, we completely understand.
The wisdom of these ancients is amazing. Damn it, every victory I won is clearly remembered in the military book. It’s just like what we thought at the time!" p>
This also further stimulated Li Yunlong's desire and learning for cultural knowledge...
