The war of resistance against mountains is heavy

Chapter 2290 Complex Reunion Relationship

People in Northeast China have a saying: "Be afraid of respect, not of bullying."

The vast majority of people in Northeast China have a hot temper and get angry easily.

But people from Northeast China are afraid of being respected by others, so anything can become negotiable if they say a few nice words to them.

Shang Zhen is no exception. Whatever he fears will happen to him!

After all, Zhou Jingyong was still a regiment commander. Shang Zhen could ignore the commander's offer to make him deputy commander, as he didn't have the desire for power anyway.

But the team leader wants to become sworn brothers with him, what can you let him do?

What if he says, "I don't want to become sworn brothers with you?" Wouldn't that be looking down on others?

Besides, what right do you, a small company commander, have to look down on others?

When someone comes to you with a warm face, if you don't reciprocate, then it's fine, but you can't let others put their warm face in front of your cold **, right?

Shang Zhen didn't want to be the deputy commander of the 226th Regiment, nor did he want to become sworn brothers with the commander, but he just couldn't say it.

Looking at Zhou Jingyong's enthusiastic face, Shang Zhen didn't know whether to say yes or no. He could only pretend to be at a loss, wondering how he had managed to get by with such a vague answer.

"These are all good things! If the regiment commander becomes sworn brothers with my eldest brother, then we two will become brothers, right?" Someone walked up from behind Zhou Jingyong. It was Xiao Boji.

Shang Zhen was secretly annoyed, thinking to himself, you little idiot, you really just like to watch the fun without fear of trouble!

Don't you know how we became sworn brothers? You made that up. Now, are you going to make me a real sworn brother?

Really, Shang Zhen suddenly realized that personnel matters are sometimes more troublesome than fighting a war.

He was just thinking about it when Xiao Boji said, "But, Captain, you don't have to be too anxious."

Hmm? After Xiao Boji said this, Shang Zhen and Zhou Jingyong naturally looked at him.

"If my elder brother is to be the deputy regiment commander, we must get approval from the division or the army. This cannot be rushed.

"It's a good thing for you to become my brother's sworn brother, but we have to choose a good day, right?" Little Boji said, changing the subject.

Well, that makes sense. Shang Zhen felt much better when he heard Xiao Boji say that!

"That does make sense. Okay, let's do as Captain Zhang says. We have to switch guard with the 223rd Regiment immediately. Let us go to the south of Dahong Mountain. Damn it, we are doing fine here, why are we asked to move?" Zhou Jingyong also expressed his opinion.

He originally wanted to arrange some drinking, but when he thought about how he almost lost his life yesterday because of drinking, he ended up not saying it.

Zhou Jingyong said this but didn't notice that Xiao Boji was curling his lips.

Are you still staying here well? It just so happens that our company commander came. If our company commander hadn't come, how could these more than 226 Japanese soldiers not have beaten the th Regiment to a pulp?

At this point, the matter of Zhou Jingyong and Shang Zhen becoming sworn brothers was finally postponed, but at this point Shang Zhen naturally couldn't mention that he wanted to take the team away.

Shang Zhen could only take his men to rest for a day, and during this process they naturally summarized their combat experience.

After that day, on the morning of the next day, the 223rd Regiment that Zhou Jingyong mentioned really arrived as promised.

As for how Zhou Jingyong handed over the defense to the 223rd Regiment, Shang Zhen didn't care, but Xiao Boji, the little loudspeaker, quickly delivered the news to him.

There is a need for comparison in everything. These two regiments are originally from the same division. Although their defense areas are not in the same place, they know each other very well!

They knew which battalion and company in which regiment was the best fighter, what they usually looked like, what weapons they used, and even what anecdotes about which officers in the two regiments had happened.

When the 223rd Regiment arrived, we also heard from the division that the 226th Regiment had actually fought with the Japanese troops coming from the north.

The people of the 223rd Regiment really didn't believe this. How could they not know what kind of people the 226th Regiment was like? Although they were just the pot calling the kettle black.

There are three regiments in one division. To be honest, the 223rd and 226th regiments have something in common, that is, they are not the main force regiments. The southern foot of Dahong Mountain is the key point of the Dahong Mountain defense zone. There are two regiments there, the other one is the 224th regiment, which is the main force regiment.

The Japanese army launched many encirclement and suppression operations on Dahongshan, but although they made some progress, they ultimately failed to open up the main transportation routes.

There are two reasons for this. One is that Dahong Mountain is a mountainous area with steep terrain, making it easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Although the mountains in the entire Dahongshan area are not very high, from the perspective of war, what is the difference between a mountain that is five or six hundred meters high and a mountain that is about one thousand meters high?

Moreover, the terrain of Dahong Mountain is very complex. The defensive positions established by the Chinese defenders were all based on the terrain, and the role of Japanese aircraft and artillery was also limited.

The second reason is that there are not only national troops in Dahongshan, but also the New Fourth Army led by the Communist Party.

Although there were constant frictions between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, the relationship between this division and the New Fourth Army was extremely good.

The National Army guarded the key points, and the New Fourth Army was responsible for providing intelligence.

Whenever the Japanese army was about to launch a so-called campaign against the Dahongshan area, the New Fourth Army always found a way to send intelligence to the National Army in advance about how many troops the Japanese army would mobilize, where they would gather and which route they would take.

As soon as the battle broke out in the Dahongshan area, the New Fourth Army behind them began to sabotage the Japanese army's transportation lines.

It is not certain how many Japanese troops the New Fourth Army could destroy, but the problem was that the Japanese supply lines were very long, and the New Fourth Army was able to often destroy the Japanese supplies.

The emperor has no shortage of hungry soldiers. Sometimes the combat effectiveness of the Japanese troops on the front line was not weakened much, but the ammunition and food were out of supply, so they had no choice but to end the battle hastily.

The reason why the 223rd Regiment was transferred here to replace the 226th Regiment, which was Zhou Jingyong's regiment, was because a strategic point was lost during the last counter-attack.

The mountain that guards the highway is called Qingfeng Mountain, and that mountain has not been lost.

But the problem is that the mountain adjacent to Qingfeng Mountain is called Monkey Village. Although the mountain does not control the highway, it is higher than Qingfeng Mountain. Monkey Village can overlook Qingfeng Mountain, which makes it strategically passive.

Intelligence sent by the Eighth Route Army said that this time the Japanese army assembled more than 4,000 troops, which was the largest number of troops the Japanese army had ever sent to attack Dahongshan.

In view of the poor performance of the 223rd Regiment last time, the main regiment, the 224th Regiment, was unhappy. As a result, they were "kicked out" and asked to come and replace the 226th Regiment.

The 224th Regiment was eager to come here, after all, there were very few Japanese troops coming from the north of Dahong Mountain.

When they received the news that the 226th Regiment had actually engaged in a fight with the Japanese army, they became skeptical.

I believe that to say that we fought against the Japanese army when we didn't is a lie about military intelligence. I don't think the commander of the 226th Regiment, Zhou Jingyong, would have the courage to do that.

Speaking of doubt, after all, defending the north is a good job, and defending the south will always require counterattacks, right? Isn't Zhou Jingyong making an excuse for himself not wanting to change defense?

Xiao Boji told Shang Zhen a lot of things, but Shang Zhen just laughed it off. Until now, he didn't think he would stay in the 226th Regiment for long, as there would always be a chance to lead the team back to Shandong.

Soon, the defense handover between the 226th and 224th Regiments was completed.

Just when the 226th Regiment, led by Zhou Jingyong, began to move towards the southern foot of Dahong Mountain, they received the enviable hospitality from the 223rd Regiment!

The truth is like an iron fist that can crush all lies!

The 226th Regiment wiped out more than 226 Japanese soldiers, and the captured weapons were taken by the soldiers of the th Regiment!

The Type 38 rifle wasn’t fake, was it? The Japanese devils’ helmets weren’t fake, was it? Even the bodies of the Japanese devils that hadn’t been burned together during the handover weren’t fake, was it?

The officers and soldiers of the 223rd Regiment could never have imagined that the 226th Regiment, which was once considered to be of the same ilk as them, would have upgraded its weapons and made a comeback.

It turns out that this is what the victorious army feels like. Under the watchful eyes of the officers and soldiers of the same division, the people of the marching 226th Regiment, from the regiment commander Zhou Jingyong to the company's cooks, all straightened their chests involuntarily!
