In mid-February, as the snow and ice receded and the weather warmed, the devil soldiers, who had suffered heavy losses by the Chinese army in the winter offensive, were recovering from their rearmament.

From time to time, small groups of devils infiltrated the control cabinets of the Chinese army, attacked the sentries of the Chinese army, ransacked the villages, and the atmosphere became tense again.

The large-scale training of Yang Ling's troops has not yet ended, and the main ones deployed on the front line near Gaoyou are the local militia forces, and the main forces are all assembled at the head of the realm for training.

The infiltration units of the devils are constantly making small moves and carrying out attacks, and these local militia armed forces, who are responsible for the task of guarding and guarding, are not high in weaponry and military literacy, even if they sometimes block the devils, they cannot be defeated, and let the devils slip away.

As the situation intensified, Zhang Baozi, Xiao Yan and other commanders of the militia units reported to the temporary headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Corps at the head of the border one after another, asking for support.

Yang Ling did not dare to slack off after receiving the news that the devils had started frequent activities again, and immediately convened the officers and staff officers of each battalion and held a military meeting.

At present, the Northern Jiangsu Corps has organized five guerrilla battalions and one patriotic battalion, and the patriotic battalion led by Major Battalion Commander Zheng Gang has been transferred north to Huaiyin to garrison Huaiyin, where the enemy situation is not very serious, and the other five battalions remain at the head of the boundary.

Among them, the commander of the first battalion, the blacksmith, the commander of the second battalion, Wu Changqing, the commander of the third battalion, Shen Biao, the commander of the fourth battalion, and the commander of the fifth battalion were Xie Zhengxiang and Liu Zhi, who were sent by the theater command.

Although the battalion commanders of the fifth and fifth battalions were Xie Zhengxiang and Liu Zhi, in order to effectively control the troops, Yang Ling sent Dao and Wang Dongming, who had performed well in previous battles, to be the deputy battalion commanders, so that the troops would not obey their orders.

In addition to the two battalion commanders, the theater command also has a deputy commander, Yuan Guangtao, who can be regarded as a supervisor sent by the theater command to the Northern Jiangsu Corps, and the staff officers have also followed several others, making up for the shortcomings of the staff officers of the Northern Jiangsu Corps.

After re-repairing and training, the current Northern Jiangsu Corps can be said to be strong and strong, and its strength is even higher than after the battle at the head of the world.

Yang Ling asked the officers above the battalion level to go to the temporary headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Corps for a meeting, and the battalion commanders and staff officers did not dare to slack off, and rushed to the temporary headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Corps in unison.

The temporary headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Corps is now working in the town office of Jieshou Town, and the lobby has been reorganized and turned into a conference room, and the blue sky and white sun flag are hung, which looks very formal.

The guard companies directly under the corps are also elite veterans carefully selected from various battalions, and each of them crawled out of the pile of dead people, with three steps, one post, five steps, and one sentry, so that the internal and external defenses of the corps are not leaked.

This is also a lesson learned from the last time the headquarters of the general unit was attacked by a large number of enemy special elements armed with guns, and the alert level of the general command has been raised.

Yang Ling knew that the devil now had a skeleton special team, but if the other party really came to a decapitation operation, it would be really difficult for him to defend himself, easy to dodge with open guns, and difficult to defend against hidden arrows.

Therefore, Yang Ling did not have any opinion on raising the alert level of the general headquarters of the Northern Jiangsu Corps, and let the staff officers under his command arrange it.

The training camps of the various battalions were not all gathered in the town of the head of the realm, after all, there were not so many people stationed, and they were all scattered in a few small villages around the head of the world.

According to Yang Ling's requirements, the battalion commanders have been paying close attention to training these days, and they don't have time to go around, so they haven't seen each other much.

Wu Changqing, the commander of the second battalion, and Liu Jinhu, the deputy commander of the second battalion, surrounded by two guards, rode horses and trotted all the way into Jieshou Town, and stopped in front of the general commander's gate.

"Hahaha, old Wu, I haven't seen you for a long time, this horse is all on board."

Hearing the sound of horses' hooves, Shen Biao, the commander of the third battalion, who was about to step into the courtyard of the general command, turned around and saw Wu Changqing who was riding over, and greeted him warmly.

Wu Changqing and Liu Jinhu turned over and dismounted, handed over the horses to the guards, and greeted them with a smile.

Wu Changqing shook hands with Shen Biao and said with a smile: "What is my horse, if you want it, I will go back and ask them to send you two horses." ”

"That's a good feeling, it's better to ride a horse than to walk." Shen Biao was not polite, and he didn't pretend to excuse himself.

"I said Lao Shen, you're really welcome." Wu Changqing laughed and teased, then leaned over and asked mysteriously: "I heard that a few days ago, you went out to practice and suppressed a group of bandits, and you gained a lot of money, tell me, what good things did you get?" ”

Yang Ling and their troops practiced on the training ground, but they did not forget to let the brothers get close to the actual combat, so a large area from Huaiyin to Baoying became their training ground, and each battalion took turns to go out for field training to improve their actual combat ability.

And when Shen Biao's three battalions were training in Baoying, they happened to encounter a beard from the north, so they were wiped out by the way.

"Hehe, it's just that I just killed a beard that can't get mixed up in the northeast border, and it's not much." Shen Biao smiled and stretched out three fingers: "I just got 30,000 oceans, and their guns are all a pile of broken copper and iron, I didn't look at it, and threw it to the local militia." ”

"Old Shen, okay, it's really yours."

Hearing that Shen Biao and the others had made more than 30,000 oceans, Wu Changqing's eyes lit up, and he punched Shen Biao, sighing in his heart, why didn't he have such good luck, he was full of envy.

"Small seizures, small seizures, not enough to worry about." Although Shen Biao was modest, it was still difficult to hide the smugness on his face.

The battalions took turns to go out for training, and as far as their luck was concerned, they cut off a stream of beards by the way, and captured so many.

"Camp Commander Shen, wait for a meeting to drink two cups after the meeting?"

Liu Jinhu, the deputy commander of the second battalion, looked at Shen Biao's triumphant appearance and said with a smile.

"You kid, I want to fight Lao Tzu's autumn wind." Although Shen Biao smiled and scolded, he still nodded and agreed: "I'll have a treat later, drink and burn the knife." ”

When the four of them were greeting at the door, the commander of the first battalion, the blacksmith, also arrived, and everyone greeted and greeted each other one after another.

After a while, more than a dozen officers above the battalion level gathered at the door of the general finger, making it very lively, everyone is usually busy with training, it is difficult to have time to get together, they are all killed in a trench, and now they are all very cordial when they see it.

"Chief Yang called us all over, is this going to war?" After everyone greeted each other, someone asked.

"I think eighty percent of them are going to fight a big battle, but the brothers have been training for so long, and they have already itchy hands, so it's time to try the knife with the little devil."

"Hey, I can tell you, this time you are not allowed to fight with me again."

"Hahaha, this one, each depends on his ability......"

When everyone was talking and laughing loudly, Xie Zhengxiang, the commander of the fourth battalion, and Liu Zhi, the commander of the fifth battalion, walked side by side from a distance.

"Look at how they look like soldiers."

Looking at Liu Jinhu who was talking and laughing loudly, Xie Zhengxiang, the commander of the fourth battalion, was full of disdain and complained in a low voice.

"I said Brother Xie, just keep this in your heart, if you say this, it will affect unity, after all, they are all people that Chief Yang trusts." Liu Zhi, the commander of the fifth battalion, persuaded in a low voice.

"Hmph, I think the Northern Jiangsu Corps is about to become the Yang family's army." Xie Zhengxiang snorted coldly.

"Shhhh

Seeing Xie Zhengxiang say this, Liu Zhi hurriedly gave him a silent gesture, looked left and right and lowered his voice and said, "Brother Xie, you can't talk nonsense." ”

They were all people sent from the Sulu Theater and were appointed as battalion commanders, and they originally wanted to show their strength, but they found that the entire Northern Jiangsu Corps was monolithic, which made the ambitious Xie Zhengxiang feel uncomfortable all the time.
