At the time.

The Eighth Route Army's victories sometimes had cash.

Generally speaking, the rewards will be distributed in this way: 1.5 yuan for each commander and soldier of the whole army; 2.5 yuan for each commander and fighter participating in the battle; 8 yuan for cadres injured in battle, and 6 yuan for wounded soldiers.

But the highest honor award is not a cash award.

The group chatted at the door for a moment before entering the headquarters.

That night, in order to welcome Li Yunlong's arrival, the Logistics Office of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters specially killed a pig to entertain Li Yunlong.

In the era of scarcity of anti-Japanese materials, it was really the most sumptuous thing to be able to eat a meal of pork, which was generally only available in victories or major festivals.

Even a relatively well-stocked unit like the Iron Blood Brigade could not have pork at every meal.

Before the start of this dinner, the boss first read out the order to commend Li Yunlong, and then awarded Li Yunlong a medal of combat hero of the Eighth Route Army.

"Li Yunlong, led the iron-blooded brigade to win the battle of Taiyuan, struck a blow to the Japanese invaders, and achieved a great victory, and in the Japanese army's plan to exterminate humanity, it was found that the Japanese army's conspiracy had achieved a major victory, according to the decision of the Political Department and the headquarters, it was decided to award the title of the first-class combat unit of the iron-blooded brigade and award Li Yunlong the Medal of Heroes in the Anti-Japanese Battle!"

The Medal of Anti-Japanese Combat Heroes, this is the highest honor of the Eighth Route Army, and it is the greatest affirmation and honor of an anti-Japanese army.

Previously, Li Yunlong had already won the Longhui Medal, and now he has won the Medal of Anti-Japanese Combat Hero, Li Yunlong is the only Eighth Route Army who has won two medals at the same time.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong accepted the anti-Japanese combat hero medal and commendation personally issued by the boss.

Of course, this time Li Yunlong achieved such great achievements and influence, and the Chongqing side and the Commander's Department of the Second War Zone also sent commendation orders, and various rewards came one after another, but Li Yunlong didn't care much.

Li Yunlong, the boss, the commander of the 129th Division, the chief of staff, and other high-level personnel of the Eighth Route Army all gathered around the table to talk and laugh.

This is the second time that Li Yunlong has drunk and eaten meat with these future marshals, but Li Yunlong is thinking in his heart that with his own record and ability, he may also be one of the marshals in the future.

That night, after drinking and eating meat with the boss, division commander, chief of staff, and others, Li Yunlong stayed at the headquarters.

Early the next morning, after receiving the reward from the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, Li Yunlong was ready to return to Taiyuan, after all, there were still many things to be dealt with in Taiyuan.

The boss looked at the rifle equipped by the guard platoon behind Li Yunlong, and asked curiously: "Li Yunlong, what kind of rifle is the rifle equipped by your guard platoon?" How come I haven't seen it? ”

"This rifle isn't too special!" Li Yunlong said with a haha: "The boss can't look down on it!" ”

Li Yunlong didn't plan to tell the boss about the arsenal and the military academy, after all, this is a secret of the Iron and Blood Brigade!

The boss, division commander and others are not people who have never seen the world, and when they see that the horse Li Yunlong is riding is not an ordinary horse, and the rifle used by the guards is definitely not an ordinary rifle.

But since Li Yunlong didn't say it, the boss, division commander and others didn't ask, because they believed Li Yunlong.

This kind of trust is trust that comes from the heart.

After bidding farewell to the boss, division commander, chief of staff and others, Li Yunlong, Wei Dayong and others began to set off for Taiyuan.

"Driving~driving~driving~"

Li Yunlong and the others rode quickly towards Taiyuan, and now that the Longteng Military Academy is about to start, there are many things that need to be dealt with.

At the fork in the mountain of a valley trail, Li Yunlong reined in the horse rope and stopped.

"Brigade commander, why don't you leave?" Wei Dayong stopped next to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong looked at the road on the left side of the fork in the road and said, "This left direction is a shortcut, right?" ”

Wei Dayong nodded: "Yes, but the area through which this road passes is very complicated, not only the mountains are rugged and difficult, there are many bandits, but also the enemy-occupied area,"

Shanxi is a typical mountainous plateau with extensive loess coverage, with high terrain in the northeast and low in the southwest. There are high mountains everywhere, the plateau is undulating internally, the river valleys are vertical and horizontal, the landform types are complex and diverse, there are mountains, hills, platforms, plains, there are many mountains and few rivers, the area of mountains and hills accounts for 80.1% of the total area, and the area of plains and valleys accounts for 19.9% of the total area. Mountains and basins are numerous!

Li Yunlong looked back at the soldiers of the guard platoon behind him, and then said: "This is not in the way, it is also a good thing to shorten the time to return to Taiyuan in a few hours!" ”

"Driving~"

As he spoke, Li Yunlong drove the red rabbit horse to the mountain road on the left and rode away quickly, and when Wei Dayong saw this, he could only lead the soldiers of the guard platoon to follow.

It's a trail, and the trail is a bit rougher, but it doesn't affect the speed of the red rabbit horse.

The road is indeed mountainous, and Shanxi is originally a mountainous area, and the geographical situation is very complicated, which makes Wei Dayong and the others look at the surrounding environment vigilantly.

"Driving~driving~driving~"

Li Yunlong rode the red rabbit horse in a fast gallop, I have to say that this red rabbit horse is the king of horses, this speed and explosive power are too powerful, even on such a road, the speed does not have much effect.

Gradually, a dense burst of gunfire was heard.

"Da Da Da ......"

"Bang ......"

The dense gunfire immediately made Li Yunlong, who was originally racing at great speed, restrain the red rabbit horse, and Wei Dayong and other guards looked around vigilantly.

"Brigade commander, there's gunfire!" Wei Dayong's nerves tensed.

Li Yunlong slowly closed his eyes, listened carefully to the gunfire coming from a distance, and muttered to himself: "38 rifles, crooked handle machine guns, 92 heavy machine guns, Wang Ba box pistols...... Zhongzheng rifle, 38 rifle, Czech machine gun...... Grenadier ......"

Listening to the sound of this gunshot, Li Yunlong immediately recited all the weapons he used.

"It should be the Japanese army encircling and suppressing the Eighth Route Army or local troops!"

From this gunshot, it can be discerned that one side is basically all Japanese equipment, which is obviously the Japanese army attacking, while the other side's weapons and equipment are very messy, and all kinds of weapons are used, it is likely to be the Eighth Route Army or local troops, and it may even be bandits!

The weapons and equipment of the Jin Sui Army and the Central Army are relatively unified!

Wei Dayong had already taken out the map at this time, looked at it carefully for a while, and then said, "Brigade Commander, the boundary we are in now is the Tianshan Mountain Range!" This area should be a staggered area of strength of the Japanese army, the Eighth Route Army, the Central Army, and the Jin Sui Army, which is very complicated! ”

The Tianshan Mountains are located on the Loess Plateau, the ground is dry and the trees are sparse, and the whole world in the field of vision is earthy yellow, which can be called the golden world, which belongs to the northern end of the Taihang Mountain system.

The strata of the Tianshan Mountains are complete and abundant, especially the precambrian strata are typical and peculiar, composed of ancient crystalline rocks, the north is cut deep and steep, the five peaks are towering, and the peak is flat like a platform, so it is called Wutai. The main peak is Yedou Peak, with an altitude of 3061.1 meters, which is the highest peak in North China and is known as the "Roof of North China".

“．． Brigadier, what to do? Is it to move on? Wei Dayong asked.

Li Yunlong hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's go, go and have a look!" ”

…………

About five kilometers away from Li Yunlong, this is indeed a battle, one side of the battle is the Japanese army, and the other side of the people's clothing is very complicated, there are all kinds of clothes, take a closer look, it is a group of bandits!

There is a bandit's den in this mountain, which is Xuehua Village!

During the war years, bandits were rampant everywhere for various reasons, and many people occupied the mountains for the sake of survival!

The bandits of Xuehuazhai are a branch of Ye Doufeng, the main peak of the Tianshan Mountains, as the king, occupying favorable terrain and entrenching here, and have been ambushing the Japanese army, it is precisely because of this nest of bandits that they continue to ambush the Japanese army, which angered the Japanese army and caused the encirclement and suppression of the Japanese army!

The Japanese army is preparing to exterminate this group of bandits!

The bandits of Xuehuazhai are fighting fiercely with the Japanese army on the mountainside of this Tianshan Mountain, and there is a wailing battle everywhere!

"Dadada...... Bang bang bang ......"

"Bang ......"

"Boom ............"

The rain of bullets, the sound of artillery, and the sound of gunfire and bullets resounded everywhere in this Tianshan Mountain.

Thank you very much for the disguised reward night knife, thank you, everyone support it.
