"Genzi! You're awake!" After learning that Liu Gen had woken up, Li Yunlong came to the artillery company.
Liu Gen nodded and looked at Li Yunlong. Liu Gen could see the obvious fatigue on Li Yunlong's face. Last night, Li Yunlong, the leader of the regiment, did not take any rest. He needed to control the actions of the soldiers of the independent regiment to ensure that nothing happened.
Any questions.
But even though Li Yunlong asked the soldiers of the Independent Regiment to retreat in time, the Japanese fighter planes still caught up, causing the retreat of the Independent Regiment to be delayed. The incoming Japanese troops caused considerable casualties to the Independent Regiment.
, due to the successful destruction of the Baijin Railway by the 386th Brigade, these Japanese were given death orders.
Faced with the crazy attack of the Japanese, the Independent Regiment, under the leadership of Li Yunlong, prepared corresponding defensive counterattacks. However, the madness of the Japanese and the exhaustion of the soldiers of the Independent Regiment after a night of fighting caused the Japanese to rush into the defensive position of the Independent Regiment several times.
If Zhang Dabiao, the battalion commander, had not led a battalion of soldiers to engage in fierce hand-to-hand combat with the Japs, he might not have been able to defeat the Japs' attack!
"Captain, are the casualties of our independent regiment serious?" Looking at Li Yunlong, Liu Gen couldn't help but ask.
Li Yunlong's expression froze, and he sighed softly, "You son of a bitch of the Japanese! This time our independent regiment suffered a big loss! With your help in attacking the Japanese stronghold, the soldiers did not suffer many casualties. When attacking the Nanguan Railway Station
, the 772nd Regiment is the main force of the attack, and our casualties are not too large."
"But the crazy attacks by the Japanese fighter planes and subsequent Japanese troops caused many casualties to the soldiers. Nearly two hundred soldiers died heroically, and even more were injured."
"Where is Political Commissar Zhao?" Liu Gen looked around, but did not find Political Commissar Zhao.
Li Yunlong smiled and said, "He, political commissar Zhao can't take any time off. He is with the seriously wounded. I will lead other soldiers to rear for them."
"Genzi, you don't blame me for leaving you here, do you?"
Liu Gen shook his head directly. He didn't care about this. He knew why Li Yunlong would stay with him. After suffering such a big loss, Liu Gen was sure that Li Yunlong would not be willing to give up and fight back against the Japanese. Naturally, the artilleryman Liu Gen was indispensable.
.
"Captain, what are you going to do?" Liu Gen asked in a deep voice.
Li Yunlong glanced at Liu Gen with satisfaction. He was indeed a soldier who had been with him for several years. Liu Gen would understand after he said it.
"Later, I will ask Zhang Dabiao's battalion to work with the soldiers of your artillery company to capture several Japanese strongholds. Remember! Be quick! Bring all the good things back to me! Next, our independent regiment will
Expand enrollment, a lot!"
"Next time we meet a Japanese devil, we must beat him up hard!" Li Yunlong said with a fierce expression.
In this encounter with the Japanese, the Independent Group suffered a huge loss. Damn it, when had Li Yunlong ever suffered such a loss? He must fight back!
"Yes! I promise to complete the mission!" Liu Gen said solemnly.
Looking at Zhang Dabiao's position and looking at each other, Liu Gen knew that Li Yunlong should have explained this matter to Zhang Dabiao a long time ago. Looking at the soldiers of the artillery company, Liu Gen could see that his artillery company had suffered the least losses.
Yes, not a single soldier was missing. After giving the order to assemble, the soldiers of the artillery company quickly gathered together and looked at the company commander Liu Gen with intense eyes.
"Check weapons! Prepare to fight!" Liu Gen ordered.
The soldiers quickly checked, and the soldiers in charge of the artillery shells also checked the number of artillery shells owned by the artillery company. Soon, the soldiers completed the inspection, indicating that the ammunition they carried was sufficient. The ammunition in the hands of the artillery company soldiers had been replenished, so naturally it was
There will be no shortage, not to mention that the artillery company soldiers did not have many opportunities to fight last night, so the ammunition will naturally not be consumed too much.
Soon, Zhang Dabiao rushed over with the soldiers of the first battalion. He could see that the soldiers of the first battalion also suffered many casualties. Compared with when the first battalion first set off, the number of people in the first battalion was reduced by one-third.
In every battle, Zhang Dabiao would rush to the front with soldiers from the first battalion. The first battalion was the most powerful weapon of the independent regiment in attacking the Japs. The first battalion did the most damage to the Japs, and the pressure to withstand the Japs' attacks was also huge. Every time
In a battle, the First Battalion suffered the largest casualties among the independent regiments. But even so, the soldiers of the Independent Regiment were still proud to join the First Battalion!
"First Battalion Commander! This time the combat mission was taken away by your First Battalion again. Our Second Battalion will not give you such a chance next time!" Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan came to Zhang Dabiao and said solemnly.
After saying that, Shen Quan came to Liu Gen and said with a smile: "Liu Company Commander, if you need help from our Second Battalion in the future, you can come directly to me, Shen Quan. As long as the artillery company needs it, our Second Battalion will definitely get it for Company Commander Liu."
.”
"Then I'll thank you in advance, Commander Shen." Liu Gen looked at Shen Quan and said with a smile.
Shen Quan laughed. He knew that the artillery company did a good job under the leadership of Liu Gen. The battle with the Japanese last night also proved this. Shen Quan came to talk to Liu Gen in order to let Liu Gen command the Second Battalion.
Treated equally with the 1st Battalion, the 2nd Battalion's combat effectiveness is weaker than the 1st Battalion, but not much weaker. Besides, the 2nd Battalion is also a team of an independent regiment, and Liu Gen, the artillery company commander, cannot favor one over the other.
Watching Shen Quan leave, Liu Gen had a bit of a smile in his eyes. He didn't think much about Shen Quan's actions. Liu Gen knew that Shen Quan was an old Red Army soldier, and Li Yunlong served in the 171st Regiment of the 25th Division of the Ninth Red Army.
When he was the regimental commander, Shen Quan was his battalion commander. In terms of combat, Shen Quan was very flexible in combat and was good at machine gun shooting, so he was highly regarded by Li Yunlong.
Liu Gen has always wanted to get to know Shen Quan. As an old Red Army veteran, Shen Quan's combat experience is quite good. Compared with Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan is not weak. In some aspects, Shen Quan is even more powerful.
"Genzi, don't underestimate Shen Quan. It's not easy for him to be valued by the group leader." Noticing the way Liu Gen looked at Shen Quan, Zhang Dabiao reminded him.
Liu Gen nodded. He knew that Shen Quan was leaving, and he did not underestimate Shen Quan in the slightest.
"Brother Zhang, don't worry! I know how powerful Battalion Commander Shen is!"
"Shall we set off now?" Looking at Zhang Dabiao, Liu Gen said with a smile.
Zhang Dabiao took a look at the time. It was now morning. The soldiers were out of pursuit of the Japanese. The soldiers were very tired. It was not a good choice to continue leading the soldiers to fight.
"First take the soldiers to find a place to rest. We will wait until the evening before taking action. We will attack the Japanese stronghold at night to avoid the Japanese artillery bombardment." Zhang Dabiao said solemnly.
Liu Gen had no objection. He also knew that the soldiers were very tired. If they continued to fight rashly, they would not be able to bring out their fighting power. Letting the soldiers rest was the best choice.
