At the entrance of the headquarters, Li Yunlong's loud and angry voice rang out.
"Come in!"
Li Yunlong walked into the headquarters, walked up to the chief of staff, the boss and the division commander, and gave a military salute: "Chief, chief of staff, division commander!"
The headquarters was filled with a tense atmosphere before a war. The three leaders were lying in front of the map and discussing.
"Li Yunlong, are you here?"
The boss turned around and punched Li Yunlong in the chest: "I haven't seen you for more than a month. You are getting stronger and stronger."
Li Yunlong chuckled and said: "There is no way. Our new group has good food. One day the leaders can go to inspect our new group and give us a dozen teeth as a sacrifice."
Today, Li Yunlong has a strong back, a strong waist, and a thick waist. His cheeks are dark and rosy. At first glance, he looks like a strong man who eats well and drinks well all year round.
During difficult times in the past, Li Yunlong gave away nutritious meals to the wounded and weak soldiers. In addition, due to the heavy physical exertion, his body looked unrealistic. But now the new group of people eat well, and Li Yunlong often follows him.
He trained with the Sharp Sword Squadron, and his physique looked like that of a burly man.
The chief of staff crossed his arms and said: "I heard that your regiment has very good food now, with enough rice and flour, as well as plenty of meat, oil and water. When I have time, my boss and division commander, I and I will definitely go to the new regiment and kill you."
"
Li Yunlong expressed his position: "No problem, don't say one meal, even ten meals and a hundred meals will be fine!"
The teacher smiled and said: "We want to go to Li Yunlong's place to have a tooth ceremony, so we have to do it early. In a month or two, if we want to go to Li Yunlong's place to have a tooth ceremony, we will have to travel hundreds of kilometers."
"Hundreds of kilometers?"
Li Yunlong looked stunned.
Seeing the surprised expression on Li Yunlong's face, the boss said: "Li Yunlong, it's like this. Over the past year or so, my chief of staff and division commander have all seen your growth. You have made great achievements in battle, and your ideological consciousness has also been greatly improved.
Many of my bad habits are gone, and I can now stand on my own."
"So, after this anti-mopping operation is over, the headquarters decided to send you to lead a new regiment to northwestern Shanxi to take over the base area of the 120th Division."
"Northwestern Shanxi?" Li Yunlong looked extremely surprised. He really didn't expect that the headquarters would actually send him to lead a new regiment to northern Shanxi.
He knew that at the end of last year, after the Hundred Regiment Battle, the main force of the 120th Division went to the Jizhong Plain to open up the Jizhong base area.
Various units of the Eighth Route Army have spread all over North China. The three divisions that were originally reorganized have all opened up large base areas on the battlefield behind enemy lines, each with its own territory.
There are currently only a small number of Eighth Route Army guerrillas in northwestern Shanxi.
Because the land in northwest Shanxi is poor, it is difficult for ordinary people to feed themselves and cannot feed too many troops, so the main force of the 120th Division went from northwest Shanxi to the Jizhong Plain.
Li Yunlong's future brother-in-law will be the battalion commander of a main battalion of the 120th Division.
However, Li Yunlong can solve this problem perfectly because he has help.
"That's right, northwest Shanxi!"
The boss nodded: "The strategic location of northwest Shanxi is very important. Take this time the Japanese army mobilized troops and supplies from Tongpu North Road. If the main force of the 120th Division was still in northwest Shanxi, it would not be so easy for the Japanese army to mobilize a large number of troops.
and supplies.”
Since the last time Li Yunlong led a new regiment to kill the Japanese 62nd Regiment near Niangziguan, the Japanese did not dare to transport troops and supplies on the Zhengtai Railway.
Instead, troops and supplies were first transported from Peiping to Datong via railway, and then from Datong to Taiyuan via Tongpu Railway.
Although the Eighth Route Army in southeastern Shanxi is strong, it is beyond its reach.
Letting Li Yunlong lead a new regiment to northwestern Shanxi was to strangle the Tongpu Railway, the lifeblood of the Japanese army.
When the time comes, Southeast Shanxi will also strangle the Zhengtai Railway.
It was not that easy for the Japanese army to cross the Yellow River westward or go south through Shanxi.
"Although I am reluctant to leave the leaders, since it is an order, I, Li Yunlong, will obey it unconditionally."
Li Yunlong's face showed a hint of reluctance at first, and then his expression was firm, but deep down he couldn't help but feel a little happy.
The business done after going to northwestern Shanxi will probably not be robbed.
Then isn’t our Lao Li going to take off?
Over the past year or so, Li Yunlong has made a rough estimate that the weapons and ammunition he handed over could equip at least 50,000 troops.
If those weapons and ammunition had not been robbed, the New Regiment today would have at least 60,000 troops.
After arriving in northwestern Shanxi, if we are not robbed, we, Lao Li, can raise 100,000 troops in less than a year.
Captain Li Da is very confident.
The boss snorted and said: "Don't think that I don't know what you are thinking. On the surface, you are reluctant to give up, but in your heart, you want to go out and develop independently as soon as possible, so that you don't have to hand over the assistance you get?"
"No, no, no."
Li Yunlong denied Sanlian and emphasized: "Absolutely not, I promise to hand it over!"
"There is no need to hand it over for the time being." The boss waved his hand and said, "It is not a good thing to be over three hundred kilometers away. If it is snatched away by the Japanese on the way, it will be a huge loss."
"Yes, you don't need to hand it in for now."
Li Yunlong grinned slightly, trying not to laugh out loud.
Seeing Li Yunlong's expression, the boss really wanted to slap him, but after thinking about it, he decided not to do it.
In the past year, Li Yunlong has handed over enough weapons and equipment to increase the strength of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang Military District several times.
"Beat your sex!" the boss snorted coldly.
The chief of staff and division commander were nearby and wanted to give Li Yunlong a slap in the face.
Li Yunlong asked: "Then our new regiment will separate from our 386th Brigade and 129th Division and become a force directly under the headquarters?"
"You have a great idea," the boss said. "The new regiment still belongs to the 386th Brigade's battle order. I'm usually very busy, so your brigade commander is the one who can handle this stubborn donkey like you."
"Yes!" Li Yunlong responded quickly.
Even if the new regiment is still affiliated with the 386th Brigade, the brigade commander will not be able to fight against such a long distance.
"Let's talk about this counter-sweep."
The boss pointed to the map on the table: "According to the intelligence, the Japanese army deployed 1 division on the Heshun and Xiyang lines, 1 division on the Changhan Road line, and 2 divisions on the Xiangyuan and Licheng lines.
, two infantry brigades and one cavalry brigade, plus two infantry regiments, were deployed on the Baijin Line."
"The strength of the Japanese army is as we imagined. The total strength is almost six divisions."
"The counter-mopping plan formulated by the headquarters is to divide the main force of the Taihang Military Region into three columns. You will lead one column to fight north and eat up the Japanese divisions in Heshun and Xiyang. The headquarters will lead one column to fight east and eat them.
The Japanese division lost its way to Han Road, and the remaining column was led by the division commander to defeat the enemy's obstruction on the Xiangyuan, Licheng, and Baijin lines. The common people and militiamen in our base area took advantage of our two columns to eat up the Japanese division.
If we have the opportunity, retreat to the North Taihang Mountains and return to the base after repelling the enemy's raids."
At present, the main force of the Taihang Military Region is 90,000 people, divided into three columns, that is, each column has 30,000 people.
A three-unit division of the Japanese army had about 10,000 combatants.
Now a column was fighting a three-unit division of the Japanese army head-on, and it had a great advantage in both military strength and firepower.
Although the individual combat effectiveness of many soldiers is not as good as that of Japanese soldiers, their strength and firepower are enough to make up for this disadvantage.
Coupled with the home field advantage, sudden tactics, and precise artillery firepower, it is not difficult to defeat a Japanese division head-on.
The boss continued: "Our three columns are called the Taihang 1st, 2nd and 3rd columns respectively. The 1st column is commanded by me, the 2nd column is commanded by the division commander, and the 3rd column is commanded by you. You still command the commander.
Those regiments."
"Yes!" Li Yunlong looked solemn and said in a confident tone, "I, Li Yunlong, promise to complete the mission. This time I will not inflict heavy damage. I will completely annihilate the Japanese divisions."
"Okay!" said the chief of staff, "I just like your courage and confidence in killing the enemy. If a soldier loses his courage and confidence, can he still be called a soldier?"
After a pause, the chief of staff then ordered: "After arriving in northwest Shanxi, don't do whatever you want just because you have assistance. You must actively unite the masses. The army and the masses must be more closely united. The strength of the army will naturally grow, and
, we must lead the masses in northwestern Shanxi to carry out production movements, develop the economy, and ensure that the military and civilians have sufficient material foundation."
The division commander also warned: "Also, you must ask for instructions in advance for any battles or offensives you want to launch. Don't start it yourself by then. Northwest Shanxi will become a pot of porridge, and our headquarters still doesn't know what's going on."
Li Yunlong quickly expressed his position: "Yes, I will definitely ask for instructions and do it."
Next, Li Yunlong asked for some details about going to northwest Shanxi and anti-mopping operations, and then left the headquarters after saluting the military salute.
The boss and teachers are under a lot of pressure.
On the one hand, in the last large-scale battle, Li Yunlong fought brilliantly and severely damaged two Japanese divisions.
But this time, the two leaders each led a column to fight the Japanese army. If they didn't fight well, it wouldn't look good.
On the other hand, the Japanese army came with great force this time, gathering the strength of six divisions. This sweep was unprecedented.
When Li Yunlong returned to Yangcun, he opened a Youth League Party Committee with Zhao Gang.
Then he called Chen Feng via radio.
At the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong said to Chen Feng: "Brother, I called you here today mainly because I want to tell you good news."
"What good news?"
Seeing Captain Li smiling like a chrysanthemum, Chen Feng looked surprised. Could he have caught a Japanese girl for me?
"Ha ha!"
Li Yunlong laughed out loud: "Brother Zhao and I are about to lead a new regiment to northwest Shanxi to develop independently and develop and expand the northwest Shanxi base area."
"Oh, is it so?"
Chen Feng's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this. After waiting for a long time, he finally waited for today.
Commander Li Da will finally lead his troops to develop independently, which means that the business will become bigger and bigger in the future.
"This is a good thing." Chen Feng asked, "Then are your superiors still fighting against the autumn wind?"
"The head of the headquarters said that there will be no autumn wind for the time being."
The smile on Li Yunlong's face grew stronger:
"Besides, the northwestern part of Shanxi is 300 kilometers away from here, and we can't transport so many weapons and ammunition there."
"So when we do business in the future, we will reimburse one share of ammunition, capture one share, and sell one share of the transaction price, which is equivalent to earning three shares from a victory. Then how will the new regiment get rich in the future?"
By the end of the sentence, Captain Li's eyes were widened, with longing and longing in his eyes and expression.
Zhao Gang said: "Isn't it easy for the superiors to defeat us? Now that Yangcun Airport has been built, the superiors can order us to directly use Brother Chen's plane to transport weapons and ammunition for reimbursement and business to Yangcun Airport?"
When Li Yunlong heard this, the smile on his face suddenly froze.
Chen Feng smiled and said nothing. Captain Li was happy too early.
