During the day, the new regiment began to prepare dry food and distribute ammunition.
Naturally, all this cannot be hidden from the eyes of the brigade commander.
Dang even guessed that the new group would definitely make big moves.
But Li Yunlong had a gold medal for immunity from death, and he could mobilize the entire regiment's troops once without asking his superiors.
The 386th Brigade Headquarters, Brigade Commander, and Deputy Brigadier Han gathered around the combat map.
Deputy Brigadier Han thought: "I'm afraid Li Yunlong is making big moves. I wonder what this guy is going to do?"
The brigade commander said: "According to the news, Li Yunlong led his cavalry company to Qi County to conduct reconnaissance and made a small fortune."
"We also borrowed two cavalry companies from the Independent Regiment and the New Second Regiment."
"In addition, the soldiers of the new regiment are also strengthening shooting training. Shooting guns every day is like setting off firecrackers."
"I guess Li Yunlong is definitely going to take action against the Black Island Cavalry Regiment stationed in Qixian County."
Deputy Brigadier Han's pupils shrank and his tone was incredulous: "Qianhei Island Cavalry Regiment... Oh my god, what on earth did Li Yunlong think?"
"Who knows, he really dares to do it," the brigade commander said, as if he wasn't worried at all.
Deputy Brigadier Han nodded.
"That's right, there seems to be nothing in the world that this kid like Li Yunlong doesn't dare to do."
"One regiment dares to attack the enemy's cavalry regiment. Give him a division, and he may dare to attack Taiyuan."
Deputy Brigadier Han thought about what Li Yunlong had done before. He sent his troops to grab food, killed five Japanese prisoners, and led the entire regiment to take the initiative to attack the Bantian Alliance and win...
It seems that this kid is a bold master, and now that he has a gold medal to avoid death, he is even more lawless.
Fortunately, this death-free gold medal can only be used once, otherwise Deputy Brigadier Han estimated that Li Yunlong would not only attack the Black Island Regiment, but might actually lead a new regiment to attack the county seat.
When the time comes, Japanese troops from all walks of life will rush to help, and once the fighting begins, I'm afraid no one knows how many troops will be involved, and the situation will become bigger.
"Brigade Commander, do you think we should step in to stop it?" Deputy Brigadier Han said, "After all, this is not a trivial matter. If things go wrong, Li Yunlong will create big trouble."
The brigade commander thought for a moment and then said: "Old Han, have you ever seen Li Yunlong make a loss-making business?"
"That's not true." Deputy Brigadier Han said, "Although this kid dares to do it, he rarely suffers losses. Brigadier, do you mean that Li Yunlong would only do this if he is sure?"
The brigade commander said: "Of course, this guy is very smart. If he dares to fight this battle, it shows that he is sure and has calculated his capital in advance."
After a pause, the brigade commander laughed and cursed again: "This guy is such a bastard. He didn't even say hello. His little capital is only enough to fight the Black Island Cavalry Regiment. If the Japanese troops from the surrounding counties rush to help, what will he do?
withstand?"
Anger is anger, the brigade commander is not a narrow-minded person, Li Yunlong still needs to wipe his butt.
Deputy Brigadier Han also understood what the brigade commander meant, and he would not stop Li Yunlong from fighting this battle.
Not only did they not stop him, they also took the initiative to send troops to help Li Yunlong.
The brigade commander was too kind to Li Yunlong...
However, Deputy Brigade Commander Han then thought about it. Li Yunlong was a guy who could fight and do side jobs. He also handed over so many weapons and ammunition, which made the brigade headquarters make a lot of money. Such a cadre was simply a treasure. Who wouldn't like him?
Deputy Brigadier Han took the initiative and said: "In this case, Brigadier, I suggest that we pay close attention to the situation of the Japanese troops in Yuci, Taigu and Fenyang. Once the enemy shows signs of sending troops to reinforce Qixian County, we should immediately send troops to intercept and ensure that Li Yunlong's battle goes smoothly.
If we proceed, as long as we can delay the enemy's reinforcements for a day or two, even if the new regiment cannot defeat the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, it will not make the enemy a dumpling."
Deputy Brigadier Han's suggestion was in line with the brigade commander's wishes. The brigade commander nodded and said, "I agree and order the 771st and 772nd Regiments to prepare for an interception."
…
When did the Eighth Route Army improve their lives?
It was when we were fighting the devils.
Li Yunlong took out all the horse meat and horse legs captured by the cavalry company in the previous two days and handed them over to the regiment headquarters.
Let the cooking squad chop it up and mix it with vegetables so that the soldiers can have a good meal.
After the tooth ceremony, the soldiers slept and rested during the day.
After nightfall, each unit of the new regiment took advantage of the darkness to carry ammunition and dry food and march quickly to the designated location.
After more than four hours of trekking, Li Yunlong led a temporary machine gun reinforcement battalion and a temporary cavalry battalion to Yelangyu.
As for other troops, they went to designated places.
Qi County is a guerrilla zone. In addition to the county seat and a few major towns, rural guerrillas and county brigade activities are very frequent.
After arriving at the ambush site, Li Yunlong called Sun Desheng, Zhang Dabiao and Wang Chengzhu.
Li Yunlong said directly.
"Da Biao, you will arrange it later and let the soldiers set up the machine guns on the position over there."
"Sun Desheng, you are responsible for leading the cavalry battalion to lead the Japanese cavalry here."
"When you arrive, you can assume a frontal duel with the Japanese cavalry. When the Japanese charge, you can turn around and run away."
"Remember to run and lead the Japanese cavalry to the machine gun position."
"When the Japanese cavalry comes after them, all the light and heavy machine guns will greet them together."
"Do you all understand your respective tasks?"
Zhang Dabiao and Sun Desheng said in unison: "I understand!"
Li Yunlong looked at Sun Desheng again and said: "I will ask Zhuzi to transfer you two 60mm mortars, and you must draw the Black Island Cavalry Regiment out to me."
"Yes, I promise to complete the task!" Sun Desheng immediately expressed his position: "If you fail to complete the task, I, Sun Desheng, will come to see you!"
Yelangyu is only about 35 kilometers away from the county seat of Qixian County. It only takes an hour for the cavalry to reach it at full speed.
A military horse can run more than 100 kilometers a day at full speed, but it must be fed with concentrated feed afterwards, otherwise it will lose weight.
Li Yunlong looked at Wang Chengzhu: "Zhuzhu, please send two 60mm mortars and the corresponding artillery to Sun Desheng."
"Yes!" Wang Chengzhu said, "I will make arrangements right away."
At that moment, Wang Chengzhu called in four artillerymen, two of whom were each carrying a 60mm mortar.
The M2-type 60mm mortar weighs less than 40 pounds. An adult can carry this thing and run very fast. It is powerful, has a fast and stable rate of fire.
Sun Desheng gave these four artillerymen the horses of the cavalry company soldiers who had died and been seriously injured a few days ago.
Although the artillery company also has a small number of horses, those horses are obviously unable to compare with the military horses captured from the Japanese and puppet troops in terms of endurance and speed.
Sun Desheng did not want anyone to fall behind when being chased by the Black Island Cavalry Regiment.
Immediately afterwards, four artillerymen took over the army horses and went to the artillery battery position to move a few shell boxes and put them on the horses.
When everything was ready, Sun Desheng saluted Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang with a military salute.
"Regiment leader, political commissar." Sun Desheng said, "I'm going."
Li Yunlong returned the military salute: "Okay, leave early and come back early."
Zhao Gang returned the military salute and then said: "Be sure to pay attention to safety."
Then, Sun Desheng walked to where the cavalry was, then got on his horse and said loudly: "Let's go!"
More than 300 cavalrymen started moving almost at the same time, heading in the direction of Qixian County. As the sound of horse hooves gradually became sparse, they disappeared into the night soon.
