Lei Jian watched the soldiers suddenly rush towards him, he was even more afraid that so many troops were celebrating the victory on the high ground and delaying the deployment of continuing to advance westward, and he was even more afraid that the Japanese commander would learn that the Japanese 581st Wing, which was stuck in the high ground, had suffered a miserable defeat and abandoned the blockade line on the highlands, and quickly dispatched additional troops to take the encirclement and pursuit to block the large forces of the Eighth Route Army from continuing to advance westward.

Just as he was about to wave his hand to stop it, a team rushed up from the eastern slope of the high ground, and Lao Yuan shouted: "Commander Lei, I am Wang Xiaoliang, I have urgent information to report to you, it is very urgent." ”

Lei Jian waved his hand and shouted: "Soldiers, I order to take five steps back, and the commanders of all units will immediately reorganize their ranks, waiting for me to give the last and latest order of 'Commander-in-Chief Lei'." ”

The commanders of all units were very obedient to orders, especially the regimental commanders of the New Seventh Brigade, first, they admired their Song Brigade Commander, who was able to use Lei Jian, a regiment commander who was very courageous, wise and brave, to command this arduous general offensive when he was in poor health.

The second is to admire Lei Jian, with the qualifications of a regiment commander, dare to take over the important task of 'commander-in-chief', command the new Seventh Brigade and the newly formed independent regiment of two unfamiliar brother units, overcome all kinds of difficulties and cynicism, and firmly lead the troops to break through the blockade line of the devils and occupy the positions held by the Japanese army.

Especially in the life-and-death struggle with the enemy commander at the last moment, he actually hit the stone with the command knife of the devil captain with both fists, just when the soldiers thought that the thunder sword would die under the command knife of the devil captain, a mysterious scene appeared.

I saw that when the Thunder Sword rotated and stopped again at the moment when the devil's command knife stabbed into the chest, no one could see clearly how the head of the devil commander was cut off by the Thunder Sword, and they didn't see clearly how the devil's headless corpse could fly up and fall heavily to the ground, in the eyes of the soldiers, the final battle was a mystery.

At this time, in the hearts of these cadres and soldiers, a tall image is erected little by little, this arduous general offensive battle, and the danger of fighting with the devil commander to the death, will leave an indelible deep memory in the hearts of the soldiers.

The troops on the high ground stood in orderly formation, waiting for their 'Commander-in-Chief Lei' to give the final order.

At this time, the unit that rushed up from the eastern slope of the high ground was Wang Xiaoliang, deputy head of the regiment, and the two chariots led by Qu Jiaming's reconnaissance cavalry platoon fought with the coordination of the Qu Jiaming reconnaissance cavalry platoon, and repeatedly raided the little devils of the 581 Wing, until the chaotic Japanese army fled in embarrassment, then stopped, and immediately came back to report to Lei Jian.

Lei Jian learned that there were no reinforcements from the devils to the east of the heights, so he jumped on the big rock where the regiment commander was standing just now, and said in a loud voice: "The commanders of the New Seventh Brigade and the soldiers of the New Seventh Brigade, we have successfully completed the general attack on the highlands held by the devils and broken through the Japanese blockade line.

Ordered all units of the New Seventh Brigade to quickly clean up the battlefield, seize the weapons and ammunition discarded by the Japanese army, leave the battlefield immediately, run to catch up with the brigade organs of the New Seventh Brigade, and join the troops led by Brigade Commander Song.

Comrades, I Lei Jian thank you for your courage and skill, courage to sacrifice, and courage to move forward in the battle of the general attack on the Devil's Heights and breaking through the enemy's blockade. I Lei Jian thank you all again, everyone has worked hard, see you later. ”

The chief of staff of the new Seventh Brigade led the regimental commanders and political commissars to run to Lei Jian, and the chief of staff shouted loudly: "Salute to 'Commander-in-Chief Lei'——。 ”

All the soldiers on the high ground saluted Lei Jian in unison, Lei Jian's eyes were hot, and his voice was hoarse: "Leaders of the New Seventh Brigade, comrades, Lei Jian salutes you, we will meet again on the battlefield to kill the enemy, take care, I order, go." ”

Lei Jian looked at the cadres and soldiers of the New Seventh Brigade, walked a few steps and turned around, looking at Lei Jian with tears in his eyes, they really didn't want to leave the 'Zhina Doll' in the mouth of this devil, the military orders on the battlefield were like mountains, and they looked forward to seeing each other on the next battlefield.

After sending off the cadres and fighters of the New Seventh Brigade, Lei Jian immediately convened a meeting of cadres above the battalion level of the newly formed independent regiment on the high ground, and he briefly summed up the experience and lessons of this general offensive battle, and finally said: "Our road ahead is still very dangerous and difficult, and at present the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is studying and deploying, which will cause a sensation to destroy the enemy's communication lines. ”

"Commander Lei, you have long been reading in front of us the 'Hundred Regiments Battle', when did you say this 'Hundred Regiments Battle' started, how big is this big battle, why did the Eighth Route Army pop up so many regiments at once, why did you engage in this 'Hundred Regiments Battle'?" Wang Xiaoliang has always been unclear about this 'Hundred Regiment Battle', and he must want to find out today.

Lei Jian looked at the cadres above the battalion sitting on the high ground, he pinched his fingers and calculated, there are still nine days before the launch of the 'Hundred Regiment Battle', which will be carried out on the railway lines in North China, in order to solve everyone's doubts, Lei Jian said concisely: "Now there are nine days left before the 'Hundred Regiment Battle' deployed by the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, this battle gathers the main force of the Eighth Route Army in North China to launch a major attack on the enemy's communication lines.

The main forces will be invested along the Zhengtai Railway and highways, and how could the Eighth Route Army, which really participated in the battle, suddenly appear so many combat regiments participating in this large-scale sabotage attack, and this is based on the specific conditions of the various base areas at that time, and on the excessively long front where the sabotage battle is getting bigger and bigger, the total strength of the Eighth Route Army participating in the general sabotage attack has gradually increased to form such a large-scale campaign, and I will explain this to you in detail in the future.

The main purpose of this general sabotage battle of the 'Battle of 100 Regiments' was to break the 'cage policy' of the devils to divide and encircle and suppress the Eighth Route Army by rail and road, break through the Japanese blockade line, destroy the Japanese army's transportation, and reconnect the divided base areas, which was formulated and deployed by the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. ”

What Lei Jian said was the latest explanation given to him, a cadre above the regiment and battalion level of the newly organized independent regiment, based on the historical facts he learned before he crossed over.

Just before Lei Jian convened a meeting of cadres above the battalion level, a staff officer of the Electric Investigation Department handed over an urgent telegram to Lei Jian, and Lei Jian read the order twice: "The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region Headquarters has an urgent telegram: Order the only regiment (newly formed independent regiment, hereinafter referred to as the only regiment of the military region) to break through the enemy's blockade line within nine days and arrive at the Jingangku (the Jin-Chahar-Hebei Military Region station) on time. ”

After Lei Jian read the order of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, he calculated that there were more than 200 roads to reach the Jingangku from here, and the troops arrived within five days of the rapid march, which was basically a running march, the roads were unblocked, and there was no large Japanese army to surround and intercept them, and they should be able to arrive within three days if they encountered good weather.

But none of these three are true, and all the way through under the strongholds of the enemy puppet army under the turrets, it is impossible for the road to be smooth; The marching route has to pass through the traffic blockade of the devils, and it is impossible not to be surrounded and intercepted by the large army of devils; The weather is even more difficult to predict, it is the height of summer, the weather is dry and the crops are looking forward to the rain, eager to poke a hole in the sky to rain, but for the troops of the long-distance rapid march, once they encounter the summer rain, more than 200 kilometers of muddy rain road, let alone nine days, I am afraid that half a month, may not be able to reach the King Kong Library.

Lei Jian deeply felt that the burden on his shoulders was very heavy, but he knew that no matter how difficult it was, he would have to arrive at the designated place of the military region headquarters on time to assemble, and he concluded that the 'Battle of the Hundred Regiments' was about to begin, and his new 'One Regiment', the head of the Military Region would definitely have a heavy responsibility to hand over to the One Regiment.

When Wang Xiaoliang heard that he had rushed to the King Kong Vault 200 kilometers away in three days, he shook his head and said: "Commander Lei, it is impossible for you to ask to rush to the King Kong Vault in three days, unless we are a mechanized army, and we will move quickly, maybe we will arrive in advance, otherwise, then let's fly with wings." ”

"Bastard, is this what one of your deputy heads of regiment said at a meeting? The superior chief, ordered us to rush to the Vajra Warehouse within nine days, we must take into account all the difficulties on the road, only by deploying in advance, can we arrive in advance or on time, and the five days I am talking about are not so casual to say out of thin air. ”

Lei Jian looked at the cadres above the battalion level and then said: "You know that during the Red Army period, our Red Army troops had the enemy blocking in front, chasing soldiers in the rear, planes in the air, hundreds of thousands of troops surrounded and intercepted, went through thousands of difficulties and dangers, and walked 25,000 miles on two legs before they arrived in Yan'an victoriously.

In order to break through the enemy's encirclement, they would run more than 200 miles a day at most. ”

Lei Jian ordered with a straight face: "In order to seize the time to march quickly, assemble immediately, the wounded and sick will join the troops led by Political Commissar Ma Mingshan by truck, and the other combat troops will march forcibly with me, clear the enemy's blockade in front, open the way for the troops behind, and set off as a team immediately." ”
