Xingjia Village, the new regiment station.

Cheng He, the commander of the first battalion, took a captured devil's notebook and walked towards the regimental headquarters earthen house that had not changed since Li Yunlong's time, along the way, the battalion commander walked briskly with an obvious smile on his face.

Obviously, all he had in his hands at this time was good news.

"Regiment Commander, this is the recent situation of our battle with the devils of Shou County."

Entering the regiment headquarters, Cheng He handed over the old notebook in his hand to Ding Wei.

"Hahaha, the little devil in Shou County has suffered a lot of losses recently."

After looking at it, Ding Wei smiled happily.

"Yes, we have been fighting a total of thirty-two battles with devils recently, and most of them have been taken advantage of by us, and the rest of the devils have not taken advantage either."

Chenghe is also smiling.

After the main force of Li Yunlong's independent regiment was transferred, the devils in Shou County also took the opportunity to transfer out of the half brigade, and the rest was controlled by the new regiment.

The devils in Shou County were consumed by Li Yunlong before, and the consumption of weapons and ammunition was serious, and the loss of personnel was not small, and the recent sweep of the devils gave priority to replenishing the front-line troops, and more than 500 people were transferred to the front line to replenish, so the life of the devils in Shou County was very tight.

But in the same way, the consumption of the new regiment in the Yuliao campaign was not small, the troops were wounded and consumed, and it took time to repair.

Both are tired.

Naturally, the two sides tacitly agreed that there were no major battles, and they were all gun turf operations with the village as the battle site, and it was an encounter on the scale of half a squad and half a company.

The time is short, the scale is small, and the intensity is low.

The devil is very unsuitable for this kind of combat rhythm, and the new regiment itself has a good foundation, Ding Wei has strong command ability, and for a while, the devil suffered closely, and all the hands he stretched out were cut off, and the loss was very great.

Even, with the development of time, the combat effectiveness of the new regiment has recovered more and more, and in the later stage, the devils had to give up a lot of territory.

"That's fine, I can also leave boldly for a while."

Ding Wei nodded and looked at Cheng He: "You can prepare, you will be responsible for the work in the regiment for the next period of time, anyway, we definitely don't have any combat missions recently." ”

In the Battle of Yuliao, the new 1st regiment and the new 2nd regiment jointly blocked the reinforcements of the two brigades of the devils, and the losses were not small, and after such a battle, the two regiments had at least three months of recuperation.

"You personally went to the Independent Regiment?"

Chenghe's tone was surprised.

To send a battalion independent regiment, Chenghe knows it, although this is not in line with the rules of the army, but well, the other party gives too much.

In the Yuliao Campaign, as well as the recent small-scale contact battle with the devils in Heshou County, a large part of the new regiment's gains were due to the price paid in advance by Li Yunlong, without those dozen tons of weapons and ammunition, the new regiment's recent results would be less than half, and the casualties would be thirty percent higher.

It's just that he didn't expect the head of the regiment to personally lead the team.

Originally, he was ready to go on his own.

"Yes."

Ding Wei nodded: "Kong Jie's new second regiment also sent a battalion over, and they will arrive in Xingjia Village in a week, this time, both battalions will be led by me to the independent regiment." ”

Although the battle has been fierce recently, the devil is obviously lacking in stamina, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that the devil's sweep will not last long, and Ding Wei is happy to be idle, and plans to go to the independent regiment in person to see what Li Yunlong has become rich.

Of course, the main thing is to fight the autumn breeze.

Let Cheng and this kid go, I'm afraid I won't be able to bring back a bullet.

"It's a pity that Kong Er couldn't pull away, otherwise the three of us brothers would have a drink together this time."

Ding Wei finally sighed.

Not long after the formation of the new second regiment, Kong Jie really couldn't pull away.

"You're the head of the regiment, you go by yourself, command, no problem..."

Chenghe opened his mouth, a little worried: "And where is the superior..."

Ding Wei is also the commander of the regiment, Li Yunlong is also the commander of the regiment, the two have the same position, both hold a strong regiment, and Ding Wei also went with two battalions of troops, from the command point of view, this should be avoided as much as possible, because once the two regiment commanders have different opinions and do not have a strong superior, there will be problems.

It's not something that can be avoided with a good relationship.

In addition, the regiment commander left the army for a long time, and once the superiors knew about it, it would be troublesome...

"Haha..."

Ding Wei laughed a few times: "This time, we have already discussed, all the troops will be under the command of Li Yunlong, and I will not go this time to compete with Li Yunlong for command." ”

According to Ding Wei's estimates, Li Yunlong's independent regiment should now have nearly 2,000 fighters, and although he is now responsible for guarding the flank of the headquarters, it is still more than enough to transfer a reinforced battalion.

Today's independent regiment is not what it used to be, and a main regiment that strengthens the top of the battalion is even stronger.

So, what is the thing, one reinforced battalion is not enough, and it is actually necessary to borrow troops from two of them?

Moreover, Li Yunlong made such a big move, and the harvest was definitely not small, although Li Yunlong would not give him good meat, but the devil's soup was also good. He Ding Wei is not a picky eater, and he can see what Li Yunlong can't look at.

"All in command of Regiment Commander Li?"

Chenghe was stunned again.

It wasn't what he expected.

He originally thought that this was a private joint operation of the three regiments, but he didn't expect that it would be a one-man show of the independent regiment, and the other two regiments were just out of the way.

"As for the superiors, don't worry about this."

Ding Wei waved his hand, and his tone was indifferent.

A battalion of troops was dispatched, and it was a private operation far from the jurisdiction, and the regiment commander left the unit for a period of time. Besides, anyway, there is Li Yunlong in front, and if you want to be punished, you will deal with Li Yunlong first.

After the superiors scolded Li Yunlong, he would definitely be almost angry, and he would definitely not have any major problems.

"That's fine."

Chenghe nodded and didn't say anything more.

·····

"Commander."

Dressed in old civilian clothes with patches, Wang Gensheng, who was covered in dust, walked into the regiment headquarters.

"How are the devils in the Tiger Pavilion stronghold? What's been happening lately? Li Yunlong, who was pondering the map, saw Wang Gensheng come in, and poured a cup of tea before asking.

On the side, Zhao Gang, who was watching with a book, also cast his gaze.

The old rules of the independent regiment are that the intelligence must be believed in what you see, it must be the latest, and the battle location must be seen by yourself, so Wang Gensheng was once again sent out by Li Yunlong to investigate the situation and inspect the terrain.

Taking a sip of tea, Wang Gensheng began to say:

"There's really something wrong with this Tiger Pavilion stronghold."

"There are obviously more devils in the stronghold in the past few days, and these new devils are wearing spikes, not the rubber-soled shoes of the foot-soled garrison troops in the Huting stronghold, obviously the new ones are the elite devil troops."

Hearing this, Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong did not speak, and looked straight at Wang Gensheng.

During this period, it was normal for elite devils to be stationed in the Tiger Pavilion stronghold.

Although the devil's follow-up is weak, the sweep is still continuing, but the intensity has decreased a lot, and after the Yamazaki Brigade incident, the devil has also figured out the location of some important institutions of the Eighth Route Army such as the arsenal around the first line of the sky, then, next, the devil will inevitably mobilize a large army to attack the vicinity of the first line of the sky, ready for a final big attack, the headquarters has begun to transfer field hospitals and other arsenals and other institutions, ready to meet the last wave of devils.

As a stronghold of the Tiger Pavilion that is close to the direction of the first line of heaven, it is normal for the devil to increase his troops.

But Wang Gensheng is a veteran, so it is impossible not to see this, so the two continue to listen quietly.

Wang Gensheng said:

"There are about two hundred new devils."

"What's interesting is that these devils don't seem to want others to find out that they are coming, and most of the time they hide in the stronghold and don't come out, only coming out in the evening and at night."

"Recently, the puppet army has not been allowed to enter, if it weren't for the shoes and the recent sharp increase in food consumption in the Tiger Pavilion stronghold, I really wouldn't have fooled this group of devils."

Wang Gensheng sighed and continued:

"In addition, the devils have also strengthened the so-called security inspections, and even some villages and towns have sent puppet troops and small units to station."

"More than two hundred devils?"

"And deliberately hiding your whereabouts?"

Li Yunlong looked at the hand-drawn map in his hand, carefully pondering these two pieces of news.

Whether it's the number of people or the action, these devils are not right.

A small Tiger Pavilion stronghold, more than 200 elite devils come at one time, this is already beyond the capacity of the Tiger Pavilion stronghold, and there is a squadron of devils stationed in that place, not because they can't let go, but because they are uncomfortable to live in, and the supplies can't last long.

Moreover, this group of devils is still hiding their whereabouts? They even began to conduct guerrilla investigations in villages and towns around the highways and to send troops to them on a permanent basis.

This is clearly problematic.

This gang of devils must have another purpose.

The first thing that can be ruled out is that the devil is preparing to attack.

There are only more than 200 people, no matter how horizontal the devils are, after the Yamazaki brigade was completely annihilated, these two hundred people did not dare to attack alone. Moreover, a small stronghold cannot be used as a forward base for the offensive.

The devil inspected the perimeter of the highway, the purpose was obvious, it should be to eliminate the danger and ensure the smoothness and safety of the highway, but this movement is really a bit big, much more than when the devil's baggage team passed by.

Then, this information can be roughly inferred that in the near future, some important people or other things that are important to the devils will pass through this road, otherwise, it is impossible to explain why the devils would be more cautious than when the baggage team passed by, and suddenly sent troops to station nearby.

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong suddenly discovered that most of the villages and towns investigated by the devils were distributed along a road, and this road was the road they were going to ambush in this business.

"Hey, hey, hey, interesting..."

Grand Master Li touched his chin.

If ·····

Without Brother Chen Fan's business, Li Yunlong felt that he would probably put a battalion on this highway to see what made the devil nervous?

It's just a battalion anyway.

Maybe there's something big to catch.

"As for Jiaoxian, the devils have also strengthened their vigilance recently, and there are devils everywhere who set up cards to prohibit long trips, and even began to vigorously maintain law and order in the city and implement a curfew."

Wang Gensheng finally said about the situation in Jiao County:

"However, after I handed over to the comrades in Jiao County, I got a piece of news. In Chiyang, near Jiaoxian, a large number of devils of the First Army were assembled, including troops of the Fifth Division. ”

"Chi Yang?"

Li Yunlong then turned his gaze to the second city that Wang Gensheng said.

He looked at the map, pondered for a moment, narrowed his eyes, and said:

"It seems that the last wave of devils is coming."

"Chiyang is the closest county seat to our base area, and it is also relatively close to the vicinity of the first line of heaven, so this place is very suitable as a forward base."

Zhao Gang looked at the map and added.

"But that's a little weird."

Li Yunlong suddenly frowned: "Jiaoxian is to meet that Miyano Daoyi, but what can this road next to the Huting stronghold have, this place, but the edge of our base, it is impossible for the devil not to know." ”

"If it's a bunch of devil officers, what are they doing here??"

Just when Li Yunlong was puzzled, a signal soldier from the brigade headquarters came over and handed Li Yunlong a message:

"Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment of the Jin Sui Army, will bring his adjutant to visit the independent regiment tomorrow and accompany him to fight for half a month."
