Chapter 764: Planning
"This battle is really happy, the little devil definitely didn't expect us to copy their back road!"
"That's it, the little devil is playing yin with us, let's play him to death!"
The brothers were all smiling, and their actions this time successfully smashed the devil's anti-hunting operation and eliminated the infiltrated devils and puppet army.
Moreover, it dealt a severe blow to the arrogance of the devil soldiers, boosted the morale of the guerrillas, and made the guerrilla brothers admire Yang Ling even more.
Whether in the regular army or in the guerrillas, for these brothers who licked their blood, they all wanted to follow a good commander who could lead them to victory, and Yang Ling undoubtedly won their approval.
Yang Ling is also in a good mood, now that he has smashed the counter-infiltration of the devils in Qinghe Town and eliminated a large number of them, the countryside outside Qinghe Town has become a world of guerrillas again, and the situation they have opened up has also stabilized.
In the face of such a heavy blow, the devils will definitely be afraid of the guerrillas, and without finding out the strength of the guerrillas, they will not dare to come out again in a short period of time to encircle and suppress, which will buy time for Yang Ling and their development.
Although Yang Ling and the others eliminated a lot of devils, these who could be sent out to counter-infiltrate were all devil elites with fierce strength, and the brothers also suffered a lot of casualties in the fight with the little devils.
Whether it was the injured or the sacrificed brothers, Yang Ling and the others were all brought back to Xiaowangzhuang.
The brothers who were killed and wounded were the brothers who fought side by side, and none of the brothers who were unscathed could guarantee that they would not be injured or die in the battle.
Therefore, Yang Ling's practice of ordering not to abandon everyone was recognized by the brothers, and the hearts of the officers and men of the Third Guerrilla Force were more cohesive.
And they will have no worries in the future battles, because even if they are injured, there will be brothers to save them back, and if they are sacrificed, they will not be in the wilderness, and this kind of trust will also invisibly enhance the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the troops, which is also what Yang Ling wants to achieve.
Yang Ling and his brothers personally found a good place outside Xiaowangzhuang, buried the more than 20 brothers who had died, and added a new grave outside the village.
"Brothers, go all the way!"
Yang Ling stood up straight and saluted these sacrificed brothers, and the ragged and dirty guerrilla officers and soldiers also had tears in their eyes, and they raised their hands to salute these brothers to see them off, and the atmosphere was solemn.
Casualties in war are inevitable, and the brothers have long been accustomed to this, and although they grieve, they have learned to turn their grief into strength and fight the little devils with a more high-spirited attitude.
The brothers fought with the devils in the muddy and damp countryside, and although they eliminated the little devils, they themselves were unkempt and unkempt.
But the brethren of these guerrillas have faded from their youthfulness, and have become more calm and sophisticated, gradually transforming like veterans.
"Let's go back to the shower, eat, and we have to continue fighting tomorrow!"
Seeing this group of brothers with eyes like knives, Yang Ling waved his hand to disband.
The brothers are also exhausted, and these days the infiltration troops of the devil soldiers have been lying in ambush everywhere and firing cold guns, which makes them nervous all the time.
And now they have completely eliminated these devils hidden in the shadows, the danger is lifted, and the natural person is relaxed.
The villagers of Xiaowangzhuang had already boiled hot water in a cauldron, and the brothers washed their bodies with mud and blood in the steaming water, and finally became energetic again.
The brothers took a bath and ate a hot meal and fell asleep, while the villagers of Xiaowangzhuang were busy with their hearts, fearing that they would wake up the brothers who were protecting them.
The brothers were so tired that they went to sleep, but Yang Ling didn't care about resting, and summoned all the officers above the company level.
"Beard, Company Commander Wu, from tomorrow onwards, you will take turns to lead the team out to shoot cold guns and carry out sabotage attacks, we can't let the devils have the slightest chance to breathe, we must fight so that none of them dare to come out to patrol, and they dare not spend the night in the field at night......"
"Yes!"
Wang Huzi, the commander of the first company, and Wu Changqing, the commander of the second company, both confidently agreed.
After actual combat training, they now have the confidence to suppress the devil soldiers and puppet troops in the stronghold turrets everywhere and dare not take the lead, as long as this continues, then the little devil's control over Qinghe Town will gradually be lost.
Yang Ling believes that under such a blow from them, the devils will not dare to come out again for a while, and this is also a good time for them to grow and develop
When their Third Guerrilla Detachment was originally stationed in Qinghe Town, there were nearly 1,000 people and their strength was strong, but Qinghe Town suffered heavy losses in the first battle and was almost completely wiped out.
And now that he has gained a firm foothold, Yang Ling also wants to start strengthening the strength of the guerrillas, after all, only when the strength is strong can he better fight the Japanese puppet army.
"Tomorrow, we will raise the banner of recruiting troops, and every village will send people, as long as they are willing to join our guerrillas, those who come will not refuse."
In order to strengthen the third guerrilla force, Yang Ling also went out and prepared to recruit troops and horses to deal with the next attack of the devils.
"Sir, should we recruit troops and ask the column for instructions first?"
Zhang Liechen also frowned when he heard that Yang Ling was going to recruit troops and buy horses, after all, it was taboo to expand the army without authorization.
Yang Ling smiled and dispelled Zhang Liechen's doubts: "Our Third Guerrilla Detachment has an establishment of 1,000 people, but now there are only more than 400 people, and our recruitment is just to fill the vacancies, so there is no need to worry too much."
"But we are seriously short of guns and ammunition now, and we have suddenly recruited so many people, so we don't go to fight with devils with burning sticks, right? Besides, our food can't feed so many people......"
Zhang Liechen also served as the acting detachment leader, and knew that this recruitment was not a child's play, everything had to be considered holistically, and as a commander, he couldn't be rash.
Regarding Zhang Liechen's worries, Yang Ling also had already considered it, and ordered: "Deputy Detachment Leader Zhang, as for the problem of insufficient guns and ammunition, please go to the column tomorrow and let them allocate some, so that we can also be under the jurisdiction of the column, and we can't let us rely on seizures all the time."
Yang Ling said as he handed Zhang Liechen the list of materials and ammunition he had already listed.
Zhang Liechen looked at the list of materials and ammunition handed over by Yang Ling, and he was also bitter in his heart, why did he bother to come, he found this trouble for himself.
"Then I'll give it a try......" But now that Yang Ling had assigned the task to him, he had to agree to it.
"Deputy Detachment Leader Zhang, can't you try it, such an important task is entrusted to you, and it is also a trust in you, you must get these things back, this is related to the future development of our Third Guerrilla Detachment, brothers can count on you......"
"Yes! I did my best! ”
