Rise from the sword

Chapter 182 Chu Yunfei is coming
Xingjia Village, the new regiment's resident.

Chenghe, the battalion commander, took a seized devil's notebook and walked to the earthen house of the regiment headquarters that hadn't changed since Li Yunlong's time. Along the way, the battalion commander walked briskly with a clear smile on his face.

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

"Regimental Commander, this is how we fought the Shou County devils recently."

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

"Hahaha, the little devils in Shou County have suffered a lot recently."

After flipping through it, Ding Wei smiled happily.

"Yes, we have had a total of 32 battles with the devils recently, most of which were taken advantage of by us, and the rest of the devils did not take advantage."

Cheng He was also full of smiles.

After the main force of Li Yunlong's independent regiment was transferred away, the devils in Shou County also took the opportunity to transfer away from the semi-large brigade, and the rest were controlled by the new regiment.

The Shouxian devils were exhausted by Li Yunlong before, their weapons and ammunition were seriously consumed, and the loss of personnel was not small. However, the devils have been sweeping up recently, giving priority to replenishing the frontline troops. More than 500 people were transferred to the frontlines to replenish them, so Shouxian The devils have a very tight life.

But in the same way, the consumption of the new regiment in the battle of Yuliao was not small. There were many wounded troops, which required a lot of consumption and needed time to recuperate.

Both are tired.

Naturally, the two sides tacitly agreed not to engage in a major battle. They were all gun field operations with the village as the battle location, and encounters with half a squad and half a company as the scale.

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

The devils are not used to this kind of battle rhythm, and the new regiment itself has a good foundation, and Ding Wei has strong commanding ability. For a while, the devils suffered a lot, and all their outstretched hands were cut off, which caused a great loss.

Even, with the development of time, the fighting power 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 leave for a while with confidence and boldness."

Ding Wei nodded and looked at Cheng He: "Get ready, you will be in charge of the regiment's work for the next period of time, anyway, we definitely don't have any combat missions recently."

In the Battle of Yuliao, the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment jointly blocked the reinforcements of the two brigades of the devils, and suffered a lot of losses. After such a battle, the two regiments had at least a three-month rest period.

"Are you going to the independent group yourself?"

Cheng He was surprised.

Cheng He knew that he wanted to send an independent regiment in the camp. Although this did not conform to the rules of the army, well, the other party gave too much.

In the Battle of Yuliao, and the recent small-scale battle with the Shouxian devils, the Xinyi Regiment was able to achieve such a big harvest. A large part of it was the price paid in advance by Li Yunlong. Without the dozens of tons of weapons and ammunition, the Xinyi Regiment The most recent results are half as low, and the casualties are [-]% higher.

It's just that he didn't expect the leader to lead the team himself.

Originally, he was ready to go by himself.

"Correct."

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, I will lead the two battalions to the Independent Regiment."

Although the recent battles have been fierce, the devils are obviously weak in stamina. Anyone with a discerning eye can see that the devil's raid will not last long, so Ding Wei is happy to take it easy. He plans to go to the independent group to see what happened to Li Yunlong. What does being rich look like.

Of course, the most important thing is to fight the autumn wind.

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

"It's a pity that Kong Er's idiot can't get away, otherwise the three of us brothers will have a drink together this time."

Ding Wei finally said something with emotion.

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

"You are the head of the regiment, you go by yourself, command, it's okay..."

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

Ding Wei is also the head of the regiment, and Li Yunlong is also the head of the regiment. The two have the same position. They both hold a strong regiment, and Ding Wei also brings two battalions of troops. From the command point of view, this should be avoided as much as possible, because once The two regiment leaders have different opinions. Without a strong superior, problems will arise.

This is not something that a good relationship can avoid.

In addition, the head of the regiment has been away from the army for a long time. Once the superior knows about this, it will be troublesome...
"Ha ha···"

Ding Wei laughed a few times: "This time, we have discussed it a long time ago, and all the troops will be commanded by Li Yunlong, and I am not going to compete with Li Yunlong for the command right this time."

According to Ding Wei's estimate, Li Yunlong's independent regiment should now have nearly [-] fighters. Although he is now in charge of guarding the flank of the headquarters, it is still more than enough to deploy a reinforced battalion.

Today's independent regiment is not what it used to be, and a main regiment with a strengthened battalion is stronger than the previous main regiment.

So, what's the matter, one reinforced battalion is not enough, and they actually have to borrow troops from their two regiments?
Moreover, if Li Yunlong made such a big effort, the harvest must be not small. Although Li Yunlong would not give him good meat, the devil's soup is also good.He Ding Wei is not picky eaters, what Li Yunlong doesn't like, he likes.

"Leave everything to Commander Li?"

Cheng He was stunned again.

This is not what he expected.

He originally thought that this was a private joint operation of the three regiments, but he did not expect that it turned out to be a one-man show of the independent regiment, and the other two regiments just had to recruit people.

"As for the superior, don't worry about it."

Ding Wei waved his hand, his tone indifferent.

A battalion of troops has been dispatched, and it is a private operation far away from the jurisdiction. It is nothing for the regiment leader to leave the army for a period of time.Besides, Li Yunlong was at the front anyway, so he had to deal with Li Yunlong first if he wanted to be punished.

After the superior finished scolding Li Yunlong, his anger must have almost subsided, and he would definitely not have any major problems.

"That's fine."

Cheng He nodded and said nothing more.

·····
"Captain."

Wang Gensheng, who was wearing old and patched plain clothes and covered in dust, walked into the regiment headquarters.

"How's the devil in the Huting stronghold? What's happening recently?" Li Yunlong, who was studying the map, saw Wang Gensheng coming in. He poured a cup of tea before asking.

On the side, Zhao Gang, who was reading a book, also cast his gaze over.

According to the old rules of the Independent Regiment, the information must be believed in what one sees, must be up-to-date, and the battle location must be seen by oneself, so Wang Gensheng was once again sent out by Li Yunlong to investigate the situation and inspect the terrain.

After taking a sip of tea, Wang Gensheng began to say:
"There is indeed a problem with this Huting stronghold."

"The number of devils in the stronghold has increased significantly in the past few days, and these new devils are wearing spiked shoes, not the rubber-soled shoes of the foot garrison troops in the Huting stronghold. Obviously, the new arrivals are elite devil troops."

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

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

Although the devils are weak in succession, the big sweep is still continuing, but the intensity has been reduced a lot, and after the Yamazaki Brigade incident, the devils have also figured out the location of some important institutions of the Eighth Route Army such as the arsenal around Yixiantian. Then, next, the devils must The army was mobilized to attack near the first line of sky, preparing for a final big attack. The headquarters has already begun to transfer field hospitals and other arsenals and other institutions, and is ready to meet the last wave of devils.

As the stronghold of Huting, which is the only way close to the direction of the first line of sky, it is normal for the devils to increase their troops.

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

Wang Gensheng said:

"There are about 200 new devils."

"What's interesting is that these devils don't seem to want others to find out that they are here. Most of the time they hide in the stronghold and do not come out. They only come out in the evening and night."

"Recently, the puppet army is not allowed to enter. If it weren't for the shoes and the recent sharp increase in food consumption in the Huting stronghold, I really wouldn't have been fooled by these devils."

Wang Gensheng clicked his tongue and continued to say:
"In addition, the devils have also strengthened the so-called security inspections, and even some village devils have sent puppet troops and small groups of troops to station."

"More than 200 devils?"

"Still deliberately concealing your whereabouts?"

Li Yunlong looked at the hand-painted map in his hand, carefully pondering these two messages.

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

In a small Huting stronghold, more than 200 elite devils came at one time, which is already beyond the capacity of the Huting stronghold. When the place is as high as the sky, a squadron of devils will be stationed there. It's uncomfortable, and the supplies can't last long.

Moreover, these devils are still hiding their whereabouts?They even began to conduct guerrilla investigations and station troops in the villages and towns around the highway.

This is clearly problematic.

These devils must have another purpose.

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

There were more than 200 people in the area, no matter how aggressive the devils were, after the Yamazaki brigade was wiped out, these 200 people would not dare to launch an attack alone.Moreover, a small stronghold cannot be used as a frontline base for attack.

The devils patrolled the surrounding area of ​​the road, the purpose is obvious, it should be to eliminate dangers and ensure the smoothness and safety of the road, however, this movement is really a bit loud, much more than when the devils' luggage team passed by.

Then, from this information, it can be roughly inferred that some important people or other things that the devils value will pass this road in the near future. Send troops to station nearby.

Thinking of this, Li Yunlong suddenly realized that most of the villages and towns the devils investigated were distributed along a road, and this road was the road they wanted to ambush for this business.

"Hey hey, interesting..."

Leader Li touched his chin.

if·····
Without the business of Chen Fan's brother, Li Yunlong felt that he would probably set him up on this road, and see what it is that makes the devil so nervous?
Anyway, it's just a battalion.

Maybe there will be some big gains.

"As for Jiao County, the devils have recently stepped up their vigilance. There are devils setting up checkpoints everywhere, prohibiting long-distance travel, and even vigorously maintaining law and order in the city, imposing a curfew."

Wang Gensheng finally talked about the situation in Jiao County:

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

"Chi Yang?"

Li Yunlong then turned his attention to the second city Wang Gensheng mentioned.

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 county seat closest to our base, and it's also relatively close to Yixiantian. This place is very suitable as a forward base."

Zhao Gang looked at the map and added.

"But that's kind of weird."

Li Yunlong frowned suddenly: "Jiao County is to welcome that Miyano Doichi, but what can there be on the road next to the Huting stronghold, this place is on the edge of our base area, there is no way the devils don't know about it."

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

Just when Li Yunlong was puzzled, a communications soldier from the brigade came over and handed Li Yunlong a message:
"Chu Yunfei, head of the [-]th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, will bring his adjutants to visit the Independent Regiment tomorrow, and will fight with him for half a month."
