Rise from the sword

Chapter 308 Lao Li, what do you want?Don't mess around!
"The first battalion is stationed in place and is responsible for the defense of the base area. The second battalion supports the new first regiment, the third battalion supports the new second regiment, and the cavalry battalion is expanded into the second and third battalions to strengthen the mobility of the two battalions."

"Yansheng, the four 82 mortars of the artillery company of your artillery company are also supplemented into the second and third battalions. Be careful to bring more shells."

At the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong issued orders to the battalion commanders:

"After you go to Xinyi Regiment and Xin[-] Regiment, you have full authority to obey the command of the two regiment leaders Ding Kong, and you must not violate orders in any form."

In order to get the two 120mm heavy mortars, Li Yunlong used all his strength. The two battalions, the cavalry battalion, and the artillery company were all sent to support Kong Jie and Ding Wei, and he was given full command.

After all, it was someone else's territory. Even Kong Jie had been operating in his own territory for a year, and he was far more familiar with it. This time, it was a siege war, and he needed to maintain control of the overall situation. It would only be bad for him to intervene rashly.

Moreover, for Ding Kong and Ding Kong, he knows the basics and the basics, and his command ability is still good.

"Yes."

The crowd responded with respect.

Hearing this order from his regiment leader, Sun Desheng, who had been in Shi Yousan's army for a long time before, couldn't help but feel slightly emotional.

What a big difference.

If it is other troops, whether it is the Jinsui Army or the Central Army, how many people dare to lend their troops to others to fight?Not to mention the complete surrender of command.Even if it was an order from the superior, each of them kept a hand, and only sent out miscellaneous cards to deal with the matter.

Given the situation over there, if you borrow it out, no one can come back, and even if you can come back, it will be useless.

Either the troops were swallowed up, or they were consumed by deliberate combat.

"what about me?"

The commander of the newly formed Second Pao Company, Wang Chengzhu, raised his right hand, his tone full of impatience.

After coming to the Independence Regiment, the artillery battery that was promised to him was given to him on the first day.

Two artillery groups were mobilized from the artillery company, and then two newly formed artillery groups. His second artillery company had a total of four 82 mortars and four artillery groups, and was even equipped with a separate large mule transport platoon.Compared with the first company, it is only two [-]-type infantry guns.After less than half a month of training, the Second Pao Company had initially run in, and Wang Chengzhu quickly gained the approval of the entire company's soldiers with his top-notch mortar artillery skills.

It was really the right time to come to the independent group this time... He was very satisfied.

"You, continue training."

Li Yunlong glanced at Wang Chengzhu: "Your task now is to form the second artillery company into combat power as soon as possible. Now you are still far away."

Zhuzi's artillery skills are not even comparable to that of Yansheng, and he can be called No. 1 in the whole brigade. He can fight wherever he can within his field of vision, but he is a monk halfway. Compared with his professional background in Yansheng, his long-range artillery is still inferior. point.

In his plan, Zhuzi will be in charge of the artillery company of the 82nd mortar company in the future, and Yan Sheng, who is from a major and knows mathematics, will be in charge of the command of the 120-caliber heavy mortar unit.

The larger the caliber of the cannon and the farther the range, the higher the requirements for the gunner.

"Yes."

Wang Chengzhu sighed helplessly and did not continue to fight.

Indeed, as the head of the regiment said, his second artillery company is still far behind.

It’s different in the past.

More than a year ago, the artillery of a regiment at that time only had one cannon and a dozen shells, and three or five soldiers could play around.At the beginning, he and the ammunition man were the only three in his new artillery regiment.But now, there are nearly a hundred people in the four 82 mortars, including the ammunition transportation platoon. It is not an easy task to command and fight with so many people.

It takes a long period of running-in to form combat effectiveness.

After the meeting, the troops were quickly mobilized, and the Second and Third Battalions, the Cavalry Battalion and the Artillery Battalion immediately set off for the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment.

······
After ten days have passed.

New group.

In the regiment headquarters, Ding Wei silently looked at the map of Xinyi regiment's base on the table.

Two [-]-type infantry guns may not be a big deal to Li Yunlong. After all, the independent regiment already has one, and the difference between four and two is not big, but for the new regiment, it is almost a qualitative change.

High mobility barrel gun, very useful.

But good things are often hard to get.

Although he already had a complete plan in mind after three people's discussion on how to wipe out the advance team, Li Yunlong also sent more than 1000 people to support him, and now he has nearly [-] troops in his hand, but the successful wipeout is still A large part of luck is required.

Moreover, Kong Jie must wipe out all the devils in the advance team before he can get it.

"Let's do a good job on your own side first. Even if you can't wipe out all the devils, if you kill one more devil, that's half a ton of ammunition."

Taking a deep breath, Ding Wei began to think about the various details of this battle in his heart.

On the side, the battalion and company commander who came to the meeting together waited quietly at first, but after waiting for a long time to see that his commander had no further orders, he began to mutter in private.

"What is the commander planning to do?"

Someone asked Cheng He.

As a battalion commander, Cheng He often knows some news before them.

When someone spoke, the company commanders of the surrounding battalions all cast their gazes over, including the company commanders of the independent regiment, who also looked over.

Everyone is curious.

This time, not only did the new regiment mobilize, but even the independent regiment sent more than 1000 people, with a total strength of nearly [-]. They looked like they were going to launch a big move. With this situation, some people guessed whether it was going to attack Shou County.

But in the end, they were only stationed in the base of Xinyi Regiment, and they stayed there for nearly ten days. It was true that everyone's curiosity was raised to the highest point.

What is this going to do?

However, because of the confidentiality regulations, everyone can only wait for the decryption.

"It is said that a small group of elite devils intends to enter our base area, attack the villages of ordinary people, and cause turmoil in the base area."

It was only three days since the arrival of the Devil's advance team, and with the fact that there are all battalion-level cadres here, Chenghe explained the mission this time:

"We are going to deal with these elite little devils this time."

"Elite devils attacking ordinary people?"

One of the company commanders suddenly opened his eyes wide.

In the past, when the little devils attacked the base areas, although they also killed ordinary people and destroyed the houses and fields in the base area, their main purpose was to force them to fight the devils in order to eliminate the main force of the army.

Unexpectedly, this time the little devil did not engage in a decisive battle, and planned to attack the common people.

"Just for this small group of devils?"

There was another company commander who didn't understand: "It's enough to set up an ambush and kill these devils, why not..."

He looked at the large group of company commanders around him, and he couldn't understand why so many people were dispatched for the sake of a small group of devils?

Today's new regiment is not the fighting power of the new regiment when it was just formed in the past.It is easy to deal with devil soldiers of squad or squadron size.

"Humph!"

"These devils are not so easy to deal with."

It was Ding Wei who spoke. He raised his head to look at the company commanders, and snorted coldly:
"These devils, about 50 people, are all composed of elite old devils. They have strong individual combat capabilities. This time, they disguised themselves as ordinary people or our troops, and did not fight us. They mainly attacked ordinary people's villages. Once they encounter us Regular troops will quickly retreat."

"Moreover, they hibernate during the day and only come out to act at night. The targets of the attack are randomly selected."

Ding Wei's words immediately changed the eyes of all the company commanders.

Whether it is an independent regiment or a new regiment, those who can achieve the position of company commander are elite veterans with more than a few years of actual combat experience and a certain overall vision. They can quickly understand that this group is in the new regiment. How difficult it is to deal with the devils who attack the villages of ordinary people in the base area day and night.

The base area is mountainous and the terrain is complex. The 50 plainclothes devils are extremely concealed. Even if you cast a net to search, you may not be able to find this group of devils. However, attacking villages without the main force at night can be completed with a stick of incense. Coupled with the extremely high concealment at night, it is almost impossible to catch up with this group of devils who are bent on retreating.

"No wonder you have to borrow troops from the Independent Regiment."

Everyone lowered their heads, their faces were dignified, and their eyes were thinking.

The Eighth Route Army must protect the common people. This is the policy of the army, and it is also expected by everyone. Most of the soldiers in the army come from the families of the common people, and they are all supported by the common people in the base areas. It can be said that the common people are the followers of the army.

"Next, the battalions will be stationed in separate units..."

After a pause, Ding Wei gave the order.

"In addition, the defense capabilities of each village must be strengthened. It is not realistic to require the soldiers of each village to be able to resist these devils, but passive defense can be strengthened, some landmines are planted at intersections, tunnels and other concealed facilities are expanded, after the devils come Just hide in quickly to avoid the devils."

"In addition, issue flare guns to the village soldiers and provide timely reinforcements at the same time."

there is always a solution to a problem.

After knowing the devil's tricks, he naturally has a countermeasure.

Didn't the devils want to kill the common people and cause panic in the base areas?It is impossible to deploy troops to defend every village. In that case, 1 people are not enough. There are too many small and large villages in mountainous areas, but it is still possible to plant a few mines at the entrance of the village, and prepare a hiding place in advance. Sheng Sheng quickly hid in the hiding place, so that the little devil couldn't find anyone even if he wanted to kill someone.

Although the hiding place in the village can't last too long, the common people hid in the mountains under the organization of the army when faced with the siege of devils before, but this group of devils is different from the devils who mopped up in the past, and it is impossible for them to have enough time to search and suppress. Support troops are fast enough to minimize losses.

It is not difficult to deal with the attack of the little devils, the difficulty lies in how to wipe out this group of devils.

"Yes."

Cheng He nodded yes.

This method has been done for a long time, and it has even been done almost.

Counting from Li Yunlong's era to now, Xinyituan has been operating here for more than two years, and has a strong control over the base area. These policies can be implemented quickly.

As for the flare gun, to put it bluntly, this thing is just a firework, and it can be said that there are as many as you want.

"After the alarm signal was found."

Ding Wei continued:

"The companies follow the predetermined plan, pursue the high-speed pursuit, bite the devils, encircle and suppress the Chaoxiaolu encirclement, and the rest of the troops are dispersed to form a multi-layer encirclement."

"Attention, contact with a flare gun at any time."

These devils are very cunning, one encirclement may not be enough, then two, three layers.A total of nearly 3000 troops gave Ding Wei enough troops to complete this combat deployment.

"Yes."

The crowd nodded in response.

"According to intelligence, this group of devils entered our base three days later."

Ding Wei looked at the company and battalion commanders, and then looked at the battle plan he had prepared on the table: "Tomorrow, all the cadres above the squad leader of the new regiment will gather, and I will hold a mobilization meeting."

Even with 3000 troops, the base area is too large. Without knowing the timing and purpose of the devil's attack, Ding Wei decided to annihilate all the soldiers.

Inspire all the soldiers and their fighting spirit.

Afterwards, everyone began to refine the details and formulate a combat rehearsal.

"Communication."

When everyone left, Ding Wei looked at the intelligence materials he had brought over from Li Yunlong, and sighed deeply.

With a total force of 3000 people, on the site that I have been operating for more than two years, I am a little helpless against fifty little devils, and this is still the case when I know the information about this group of devils.

This made Ding Wei feel aggrieved.

But he can't either.

At night, the complex environment in the mountains will cause a lot of loopholes in the encirclement. As long as the little devil commander has good command ability, it is too easy for more than 50 devils to get out.

Not to mention that these devils are all plainclothes, even military uniforms.

The backward communication ability makes the advantage of the number completely unable to be used.

"If labor and management can equip each company with a radio station, these devils won't even think about running away."

Cursing bitterly, Ding Wei slapped the table.

As for baiting the devil, he also thought about it.

However, the intelligence materials provided by Boss Chen clearly stated that during the training of this group of devils, Yamamoto clearly stated that they should not choose the most suitable attack target, but attack completely randomly and irregularly.

This move completely put an end to the bait and the trick.

At the same time, Kong Jie's New Second Regiment also had the same meetings and actions.

The total force of more than 2000 people was dispersed to station in various base areas with the company as a unit. At the same time, the security system of each village was strengthened, tunnels and other hidden hiding places were dug, and ordinary people were organized to practice and train for quick evasion.

······
at the same time. .
In the independent regiment, Li Yunlong was also lying on the table, looking at the maps of the bases of the three regiments, his eyes flickering.

"It's difficult. I'm afraid it won't be possible to eliminate eighty of them."

After a long time, Li Yunlong let out a long sigh.

There is a battle plan, but when the little devil is focused on breaking through, no matter how he speculates, he will not be able to wipe out the devil's advancing team in the end.

They all look similar, and even put on a certain amount of make-up, making them look more like victims of disasters. If they can't do it, they bury their guns and pretend to be rioters. They simply don't have enough power to identify them one by one.

"Old Zhao."

"This group of devils only carry three to five days' supply and luggage, so they will definitely use Shou County as their forward base."

Without waiting for Zhao Gang who was at the side to speak, Li Yunlong suddenly flashed sharply, and said to Zhao Gang: "Tell me, can we think of a way here, in the base area, I'm afraid it's impossible to wipe out all the devils who ran, but... "..."

"Old Li, what do you want to do?"

Zhao Gang's back felt cold immediately, and he interrupted Li Yunlong: "Don't act recklessly!"
