Zhao Gang knew this when Masaki Tatsuo was shot to death.
At that time, Zhao Gang was organizing the rescue of the wounded on the second line.
The conditions of the Eighth Route Army were poor, so they could only hand over the Japanese's first-aid kits to bandage the wounded, and the seriously wounded had to be rushed to the rear.
As a battle comes to an end, the most stressful thing is the treatment of the wounded.
While Zhao Gang was busy, news of the victory from the front came down, and the medical soldiers cheered for joy.
Zhao Gang was very happy, the Independent Regiment fought beautifully!
Although there were a lot of casualties, and about half of the troops were lost, they once again defeated a Japanese brigade... to be precise, it was a brigade plus two reinforced infantry squadrons plus a main tank squadron.
Normally, two divisions would not be able to defeat a Japanese army of this size. Unexpectedly, the Independent Regiment was defeated by three strikes, five divided by two, and even killed the Japanese captain.
Zhao Gang was full of emotions and sighed to himself: "It's different with the new equipment. The key is that the independent regiment also fought bravely and resolutely!"
Feeling happy, Zhao Gang wanted to report the good news to his superiors. At the same time, he estimated that the radio station would be repaired soon, so he put aside what he was doing and rushed towards the regiment headquarters with the guards.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at the regiment headquarters, they found Xiao Chen and others smoking cigarettes and excitedly discussing the victory:
"I heard it was Xiao Dongbei who made the contribution again!"
"Isn't that right? He drove a tank and beat the Japanese into disarray!"
"I heard that two or three hundred Japanese were killed and wounded on the spot, and tanks, armored vehicles, etc. were all killed in one go!"
"Hey...you should be more careful with your mouth. The monk is also responsible for this!"
…
When Zhao Gang came in and saw their appearance, he frowned and asked, "Has the radio been repaired?"
Xiao Chen quickly threw the cigarette butt on the ground, stepped forward and said: "Report to the political commissar, it's not...it hasn't been fixed yet!"
"It's not fixed yet, why don't you fix it quickly?" Zhao Gang got angry when he heard this answer: "Do you know how important the radio station is?"
Xiao Chen responded: "Yes, fix it immediately!"
After saying that, he turned around and went to tinker with the radio station.
Zhao Gang, who was still angry, couldn't help but say a few more words: "I'm talking about you guys, your comrades are bleeding and dying on the front line, how can you work here as foreigners? As radio soldiers, the radio station is your battlefield, it is yours
Weapons, is this worthy of the comrades fighting on the front line? Is it worthy of the trust placed in you by your superiors? Is it worthy of the training given to you by the organization..."
A radio soldier couldn't hold himself back and replied aggrievedly: "Political commissar, we..."
Before he could finish his words, he was stopped by Xiao Chen. Xiao Chen took over with an apologetic smile: "Political Commissar, we know we are wrong, fix it right away, fix it right now!"
At this point, Zhao Gang saw the trick. He nodded and said, "It was the commander who ordered it again, right?"
"No... no!" Xiao Chen put on a troubled look: "It's because we really... really can't cultivate well! No, I haven't been on the radio for several years..."
How could Zhao Gang fail to see that Xiao Chen was covering for Li Yunlong? He tapped his finger in the air and said: "I'll settle the score with you later!"
After saying that, he anxiously went to find Li Yunlong.
Xiao Chen angrily scolded the radio soldier who spoke out: "You are the only one who talks a lot. If there is any problem with the regiment leader, it depends on how you explain it!"
The radio soldiers had a look of helplessness on their faces. They really couldn’t please each other. The radio soldiers of the Independent Regiment were really not human beings!
Zhao Gang became angry on the road.
This Li Yunlong made all the radio soldiers, correspondents, and security guards wear the same pants as him.
He destroys the radio station at every turn, treating the war as just playing house!
Now I must be making my own decisions about eating meat.
Who is this?
And the group leader!
While scolding, he walked away. When he arrived at the tank, he saw Li Yunlong busy with a group of people. He stepped forward angrily and asked, "Li Yunlong, what else do you want to do?"
"Hey, political commissar!" Li Yunlong immediately changed his smile when he saw it was Zhao Gang: "How can you do that? How can you do anything famous!"
After saying that, he took Zhao Gang aside: "Let me tell you, if you calm down and reason calmly, there will be nothing you can't solve, right?"
Zhao Gang was almost deceived by Li Yunlong. He was about to sit down and reason with Li Yunlong when out of the corner of his eye he saw several soldiers putting on Japanese military uniforms.
Zhao Gang grabbed Li Yunlong and asked, "Old Li, do you want to attack the county seat, or do you want to attack Taiyuan?"
Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Li Yunlong could only laugh and said: "Look what you said, how can we attack Taiyuan? In other words... I want to attack Yucun!"
Then Zhao Gang understood. He turned blue with anger, pointed at Li Yunlong and said: "You...are you so messy? Do you know that this may disrupt the overall plan of your superiors..."
Now that he had said it, Li Yunlong was not polite. He raised his head and replied: "We don't know the overall plan. I know that the superiors are eager to attack Yucun. I also know that the New Second Regiment and the Hundred Battle Regiment are attacking the old army.
It didn't take a long time to defeat them! In this case, why can't we go and capture Yucun? Isn't this the overall plan?"
Zhao Gang retorted: "Aren't you talking too little? Two regiments have been besieging them for days and nights but they still haven't captured it. You just took it when you asked? Do you really think that the Independent Regiment is a heavenly soldier and a heavenly general?"
"Heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals don't count!" Li Yunlong said with a smile: "There is one tank!"
As he spoke, Li Yunlong raised his head in the direction of the tank and asked: "Political Commissar, you said... would this thing be useful for attacking the bunkers and gun towers in Yucun?"
Zhao Gang was stunned. If this iron lump was used to build a blockhouse, the gun tower would definitely be useful!
The Japanese machine guns and the like are useless against it, but it can move forward and fire at the perforation... Doesn't that mean it's accurate every time?
Seeing Zhao Gang in a daze, Li Yunlong continued to explain: "Old Zhao, we have to analyze the specific situation in detail. Isn't there a saying that we will be outside...what is it?"
"Military orders are not obeyed!" Zhao Gang added reluctantly.
"That's right, that's right!" Li Yunlong said: "That's a good saying! You scholars all have this truth, why don't you understand?"
"That depends on the situation..."
"Isn't it just based on the situation?" Li Yunlong took over the topic without waiting for Zhao Gang to refute: "Old Zhao, think about it, although the chief knew that we had tanks, he thought we wouldn't use them. What if he knew that we would use tanks?
, then we can’t let tanks attack Yucun? That doesn’t make sense!”
Li Yunlong still didn't say a word.
If the superiors knew that the Independent Regiment would use tanks, they would probably transfer the tanks to the Hundred Battle Regiment or the New Second Regiment.
Li Yunlong didn't want to do this, so he said "it's not urgent" when he was repairing the radio station.
When Zhao Gang heard this, he thought it made sense. The radio station was not repaired and could not be contacted. The superiors did not know the specific situation, so they could not give normal command.
Thinking of this, Zhao Gang asked: "How are you going to fight?"
