Chapter 211
Back at the regiment headquarters, Li Chong sat at the square table, spread out the newly drawn map, and said:
"Our [-]rd Regiment entered Meiling. According to Shangfeng's order, it was to contain the devils in Nanchang and the surrounding counties. It was here to fight guerrillas with the devils. We collected food from the common people, and we will recruit soldiers in the future. Now the devils are throwing at Kengziling. Bacterial weapons, if nothing is done, how will ordinary people think of us in the future?"

"Leader, I didn't say anything, blood is paid with blood, we are the main force, we can't play hide-and-seek tricks in the mountains!" Everyone in the group said in unison.

Li Chong looked away from the map, then looked at his three battalion commanders and said:
"There must be a fight, but let me say a few words first. Fighting is not a momentary pleasure. No one knows how long Shangfeng wants us to contain the devils in Meiling, so it is similar to what the captain of the Anyi County Brigade said today. No one is allowed to act without authorization, such as hitting the county seat."

"Don't look at us now that we have all the guns and ammunition. It would be stupid to use the whole regiment to conquer a county. The devils want us to do so. Now we are in the depths of Meiling, and the devils are not familiar with the situation in Meiling. , It’s still difficult to find us. But once our heads are hot and we take the initiative to attack the county, it will just set up a target for the devil’s plane. You have all seen the power of the devil’s gas bomb today, so let’s not touch that bad luck!”

"Let's put aside the fact that when we fought positional warfare in the past, picking up a gun was just a way of charging the devils. Now it's not a positional warfare where the two armies are confronting each other. The chairman has proposed that after the war enters the second stage, guerrilla warfare will be more important than regular warfare. Since it is a guerrilla attack, we should also learn from the Balu method of doing what we can and hitting and running.”

"The whole regiment is not fighting big battles or gnawing hard bones. What are you fighting for? Learn from the Eighth Route, fight against the devils' traffic lines, pull out the devils' strongholds, and fight for reputation, so that when we recruit troops, we can let the young people in the countryside People are eager to join the army. When fighting, no one is allowed to charge as soon as the forehead is hot, and to put it bluntly, now we are putting down the airs of the main force, understand?"

Tang Dayao scratched the back of his head and said, "Commander, you said we have guns and cannons, wouldn't it be uncomfortable to fight like that?"

"Uncomfortable? Did you see the armed forces of the county brigade today? I will set a standard for you. In the future, if you go out to pull out the devil's stronghold, if it is a small stronghold with 15 to 20 people along the road, you are not allowed to use heavy machine guns. , Only two rounds of shells are approved. Those who exceed 50 can apply for heavy machine guns from the regiment headquarters as appropriate. Large strongholds with more than [-] people are not allowed to send troops without authorization unless we get stuck in the neck. When the battalion is divided, you go out to act separately, and whoever consumes more ammunition than the price of the captured materials in one operation will have done nothing!"

After finishing speaking, Li Chong glanced around, "I only have these possessions, ammunition supply is very difficult, understand? Don't think I'm tight-lipped, the Eighth Route guerrilla only has millet and rifles, isn't it still fighting devils?"

"Understood." The three stood at attention and said with their chests out.

"Old Jane, tell us about the strongholds of the devils outside Anyi or Fengxin County. Now we are going to fight a good battle and tell the devils that our [-]rd Regiment is not just people coming!"

"Okay, head." Jian Yongjiang took the pencil and leaned over to the map.

The map was drawn by Jian Yongjiang, who is familiar with the devils and the terrain.Because after entering Meiling, according to Li Chong's order, Jian Yongjiang led the company and platoon first-level cadres who could draw maps to map the entire Meiling mountain area and the deployment of devils.

"Regiment commander, two battalion commanders. Anyi and Fengxin are 25 kilometers apart. Among them, Anyi County and Guizi are only about ten kilometers away from Changbu Town on the outer edge of Meiling. There is a bifurcated Beiliao River between them. , the devils closest to us are the devils in Changbu Town, and there is about a reorganized squad. At present, the main forces of the Japanese defenders in Anyi County are distributed in the bus station, Wanbu Town, and Huangzhou Town. Among them, Huangzhou Town The area is the concentrated area of ​​devil strongholds, there is a large piece of land that has been an important grain-producing area attached to Nanchang City since ancient times, and now that the devils have occupied Anyi County, they have built many bunkers there dedicated to grain production."

"I suggest that the target of our first battle should be Changbu Town, which is the closest to us. Although the devils have a full squad, Changbu Town is an open gathering town. The devils don't have high walls to stop them. Now the devils He and Ergouzi built bunkers at the four corners of the town as strongholds, and the devils usually squat in the strongholds and the old brick houses of the town government."

"Secondly, the Beiliao River that forks in Wujiang Mountain. The devils from Anyi County must cross the upper branch and the lower branch of the Beiliao River to support them. What you need to pay attention to is the devils in Huangzhou Town. The lower branch of the Beiliao River quickly came to support, according to the information we have inquired before, the devils in Huangzhou Town have gunboats, which are usually used to transport food."

While Li Chong and his men were planning how to retaliate against the devils, the letter sent by Li Chong finally arrived in Chongqing City, thousands of miles away, after more than 20 days.

"Old Li's family, I have your letter!" When the sky was getting dark, the disabled veteran who was in charge of delivering the letter shouted in front of the Li's courtyard with the letter.

"Oh, Bodhisattva bless you, finally came the letter. There has been no news for more than 40 days." Mother Chen Yueying hurried out when she heard the news, but her younger sister Yuanxiu jumped faster and took the letter first.

Father Li Derun came down from the second floor.

The second younger brother Zhixin tore open the envelope, and as usual there were two letters inside.

Li Zhixin took out the letter written by his elder brother to Lin Wanru and handed it to the younger sister, "Little sister, send this to sister Lin, and you will definitely get a lot of delicious food."

"Okay." Yuan Xiu took the letter and ran out of the yard, while Hang Seng turned and followed.In this world, a little baby cannot be allowed to run around outside at will, even if it is only a short distance of 30 meters.

Li Zhixin opened his elder brother's family letter, sat on a stool in the living room and read aloud, "My son is my parents. I haven't written a letter for more than a month. I miss my family very much. My son has been promoted to the head of the lieutenant colonel a few days ago. As the head of the group, I will lead thousands of The responsibility of Yu Hao is even heavier, and the government has asked me to choose a main team alone. It is an honor, very fortunate."

". Serving the country, expelling the Japanese invaders, and saving the nation is the duty of a son. However, the parents are old, and the younger siblings are young. However, the son leads the army and cannot take care of everything in the family. He cannot be filial to the former. Parents and adults should not If you work too hard, your son will go home to visit his parents when he has a chance, don't forget about your parents."

"Admiration, son Li."

After reading the letter, Li Zhixin took the letter and said happily, "Father, mother, big brother is really amazing, he is now the team leader!"

The butler, Uncle Tong, and his servants all had pride on their faces. They came to the big city and learned a lot. Although they don't understand the word "leader" very well, when it comes to their young master on weekdays, it is When he was the "major battalion commander" of the main force of the national army, everyone around him praised him. Now that the young master has been promoted, he must be even more powerful when he is said.

"It's good that you're fine, it's good that you're fine!" Chen Yueying didn't care that her son became the head of Lao Shizi again, as long as the letter came, she was fine, and her heart fell to the ground.
