Lei Jian and Ma Mingshan rushed out of the village quickly, less than an hour, came to the command post of the left column, when they walked into the house, saw seven or eight people sitting in the room, Commander Yang met the Lei Jian, clasped his hands and didn't speak, he heard Lei Jian's 'oops' suddenly pull out his hand, quickly retreat and squatted on the ground.

Commander Yang was made by Lei Jian's shouting, and joked suspiciously: "Haha, our hero who killed the enemy was shaken by me, and he squatted on the ground and shouted in pain, is it injured?" Someone, quickly check the injuries of Regiment Commander Lei. ”

A soldier ran in from the door and immediately reported: "Report to Commander Chen, which one is Regiment Commander Lei?" ”

Lei Jian stood up embarrassedly, shook his hands and looked at Commander Yang with an embarrassed face, and his sad expression made everyone even more puzzled.

Ma Mingshan immediately reported: "Report to Commander Chen, Regiment Commander Lei is not injured, just, just. ”

"It's nothing, it's just a few bites called 'stinging hair'." Lei Jian replied seriously.

Commander Yang walked up to Lei Jian, gently held up Lei Jian's hand, and saw that the thumb and index finger of his right hand were swollen, and the red and purple skin was shiny, Commander Yang shook his head and said: "Commander Lei, you, you are really a child, seeing that your two fingers are swollen like this, you should have taken the initiative to provoke the 'stinging cat' bugs, right?" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Lei Jian's half-raised right hand, and the entire palm was swollen into a small steamed bun, which made people feel distressed when they looked at it.

Commander Yang looked at Lei Jian and said: "Commander Lei, you are too powerful, as soon as you quit the battle and don't kill devils on the battlefield, you will be idle and toss worms, you really can't do anything." I will send a correspondent to take you to the health team to check and see if there is a way to quickly disinfect and reduce swelling, it is not a way to keep your hands like this, once you go to the battlefield, I am afraid you will not even be able to hold a gun, you are fast. ”

"Hi hi, Commander Yang, my Lei Jian is not so squeamish, Lao Ye Mountain was in a battle, I was shot in the arm, I took out the bullet with a knife, I didn't shout, a small caterpillar stung a few times, and I won't die, let alone delay me to lead the troops to fight."

"Can you really hold on? Then sit down for a meeting first, and the health captain will come in a moment, and he will take care of your hands. ”

"Please rest assured, Commander Yang, you can give an order, my thunder sword is fine."

Commander Yang waited for everyone to sit down, briefly summed up the results and experience of the first stage of the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, and then issued an order, ordering the main forces of the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and cavalry regiments to secretly approach Laiyuan City, wait for an opportunity to launch an attack, seize the county seat, and order the special service battalion of the military region and the engineer company of the military region to clear the enemy strongholds around Laiyuan, and order the only regiment of Lei Jian and the artillery company of the military region to destroy the artillery tower of the enemy stronghold in Yuanshan.

At the meeting, Commander Yang made new arrangements for the combat tasks of the various units, and gave hints on the details, demanding that all participating units resolutely complete their tasks and cooperate with the right flank columns of the 6th and 26th regiments led by Commander Deng of the Jizhong Military Region and the Chasui guerrilla detachment to seize Lingqiu and nearby strongholds.

Lei Jian was the last to leave the command post of the left wing column of Liujiadu, and after the medical treatment of the column health captain, the swelling of the two hands stung by the 'stinging cat' began to subside, and it was not so slightly touched, which gave people a kind of heart-scratching pain.

Commander Yang looked at the handsome face of Lei Jian, who had not yet matured, and asked jokingly, "Lei Jian, your baby is almost twenty this year, right?" I heard that you have a pretty good relationship with Captain He Chuntao of your regimental health team, I can warn you, if you don't look at people, don't provoke them and leave them aside, it's not authentic, you kid should know in your heart, if it causes a bad impact, I will trouble you. ”

"Hahaha, laughing and talking, it's purely a matter of no shadow, my Lei Jian is now focusing on the battlefield of killing devils, if I don't defeat the little devils, I won't find a woman to marry first, this is my marriage bottom line."

"You stinky boy can't say that, if you fight for another ten or eight years, you'll be almost thirty, right? If you don't get married at this age, you will delay the next generation of revolution, you know? ”

"Commander Yang, we will never resist for ten or eight years, now it is forty years, at most five or five years, we can defeat the little devil and make the little devil kneel on the ground and surrender to us."

Commander Yang frowned and looked at Lei Jian, then suddenly grabbed him and asked, "Lei Jian, how can you be so sure?" Where did you hear that? I can tell you, don't get too far ahead of your time, it's not good. ”

Lei Jian said with a smile: "Commander Yang, then let's wait until 1945, when it is really the day to defeat the little devil, you can treat me to a big meal to fill my stomach that has been lacking meat and oil for a long time, hahaha, Commander Yang, if there is no new instruction, I will immediately rush back to the troops, deploy the task, and launch an attack on the Yuanshan Devil Gun Tower and the surrounding devil strongholds in the early morning of tomorrow." ”

Commander Yang personally sent Lei Jian to the entrance of the village, Lei Jian's body moved like a mountain leopard, jumped on the horse's back, grabbed the horse's reins and stood up to salute a very chic military salute, and shouted loudly: "Commander Yang take care." ”

There was a sound of horses' hooves, and the dust flew, and several war horses galloped out of Liujiadu, rushed out of the village, and went straight to the northeast, and soon saw the village in front, Lei Jian strangled the war horse and asked Ma Mingshan, who followed behind: "Political Commissar Ma, you said that this little 'stinging cat', why is it so powerful?" I think it's even when I use a pig-killing knife to get bullets, and I haven't been tortured so badly by this little thing, it's really enlightening. ”

"Haha, don't underestimate this little 'stinging cat', it will kill people if the sting is serious, and besides, Captain Lei, have you never seen or heard of this 'stinging cat'? Shouldn't it? ”

Lei Jian has not only never seen or heard of it before he crossed over, but this is also the first time he has been in close contact with the little 'stinging cat', and he was almost in tears by this little thing, and he said it was a joke, but he didn't dare to say it clearly, so he had to divert the topic and rush into the village with a whip.

Accordingly, in accordance with the orders of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the three main corps of the 100-regiment battle with the enemy at Zhengtai Road are in full swing to prepare for the second phase of the campaign, and the 100-regiment battle will enter the second phase on 21 September.

Lei Jian returned to the unit and conveyed the spirit of the instructions of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and the head of the left wing column, and decided to lead the cadres of the battalion and company to reconnoiter close to the Yuanshan stronghold.

A group of more than 20 main commanders of the only regiment, under the cover of the guard platoon, when night had just fallen, the sky and the earth were gray, a small force rushed out of the village in concealment, and quickly approached the Yuanshan stronghold.

After on-the-spot investigation, Lei Jian quickly worked in his brain to collect the information he had collected, sorted out the coarse and refined ones one by one, and initially formed a plan to conquer the stronghold of Yuanshan.

In terms of tactics, there is little difference between the enemy and us, and the important thing is that both are at a disadvantage or suffer defeats and setbacks in battle, and the methods that should be adopted are different.

Lei Jian believed that no matter how far the battle went, even if it was temporarily at a disadvantage and the troops suffered major setbacks, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army would never be discouraged, but they would stimulate high morale and the greatest cohesion.

At the most difficult, dangerous, and arduous moments, field commanders will wholeheartedly care for and protect the soldiers, and lead the soldiers to bravely kill the enemy by taking the lead in leading the soldiers.

The commanders and soldiers of the Japanese army, who possessed a frenzied will, in the most dangerous circumstances of their troops, would launch the most violent counterattack by virtue of their stupidity of loyalty to the emperor and a wild mentality that would not have been carried out in the whole mind instilled with the spirit of bushido.

After careful study, analysis, and synthesis of the relationship between the enemy and the enemy's and the special environment of the Yuanshan stronghold, Lei Jian believed that the Yuanshan stronghold was a stronghold with the strongest firepower, the highest quality of soldiers, and the strongest fortification outside Laiyuan City, and that in order not to expose the target and attract the enemy's attention, it was best to adopt the tactics of long-distance running, attack suddenly, and destroy the enemy's stronghold in one fell swoop, so as to reduce the casualties of the troops and soldiers.

Returning to the station, Lei Jian immediately convened a military meeting above the battalion level, and he carefully observed the geographical location and coordinates of the Japanese stronghold in Yuanshan, carefully drew a sketch of the geographical location and coordinates of the Yuanshan stronghold, spread it on a table of eight immortals, and pointed and said: "The Japanese stronghold in Yuanshan is located on a hillside in the south of Yuanshan Village, seven kilometers southeast of Laiyuan City, and its core position is. ”
