The eldest of the Yan family in the Siheyuan

"Old Li, you are talking about reclaiming wasteland to grow food. Our regiment is already doing this." Zhao Gang thought Li Yunlong was talking about reclaiming wasteland. There are many troops, but apart from training, there is not much time left.

Taking care of the cultivated land that has already been reclaimed is already a bit powerless, and it is absolutely impossible to expand the reclaimed area.

After all, after the land is reclaimed, it needs to be planted, weeded, fertilized, and watered...

"Don't worry, Old Zhao, I'm not talking about this. What I'm talking about is that we should take the initiative to attack and expand the area of ​​our base while the devil's strength is weakened and he has no time to care about others."

"Scatter our troops, except for the county town, we will occupy the rest of the rural areas."

"There are a total of eight townships under Ping'an County. We now have four battalions. My idea is to divide each battalion into two battalions, and then one battalion will be stationed in a township."

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, although Zhao Gang thought it was good, he was still a little worried. After all, according to Li Yunlong's intention, if all the troops were sent out, what would happen to the regiment headquarters if something happened.

The distance is too far, even if you want to transfer the troops back, you won't be able to catch up with the time.So Zhao Gang frowned and said, "Old Li, although your idea is good, have you ever thought about the safety of the regiment headquarters? If the devils come over, can we stand it?"

"Old Zhao, I've thought about the question you raised. In this way, the guard platoon directly under the regiment headquarters will be expanded into a guard company, plus the elite team. After all, there are three to 400 people. Moreover, our station is in a mountainous area, which is easy to defend. Attack, even if the devils send more troops, they will never think about taking us down for a while. We can fully support the arrival of the support troops. Li Yunlong explained to Zhao Gang: "Besides, our regiment of [-] people, all retreat Here is not the solution, the logistical pressure alone is enough for us to have a headache, after all, the place here is too small, no matter how many people there are, we can't use it, we have to go out sooner or later, we just moved the time forward a little bit. "

"You've thought it all over and why are you asking me, are you making fun of me?" Zhao Gang pretended to be angry when he heard Li Yunlong's words.

He found that what Li Yunlong said was quite right.Although it is okay for the new group to squeeze together now, we must look forward to everything.According to the development trend of the new regiment in the past, the expansion of troops is a matter of time, and it is inevitable for the troops to reach a certain level and go out. This cannot be disputed. What makes him angry is that Li Yunlong has thought things through before he came to ask him. Opinion.

"Okay, then I'll take it as if you agreed, and I'll call Zhang Dabiao and the others back for a meeting in the evening to talk about it." Li Yunlong didn't care and said to Zhao Gang with a smile.

But when Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were talking, Xinyituan ushered in two unexpected guests, they were Ding Wei and Kong Jie.

Before anyone entered the house, the voice came over.

"Old Li, the old comrade-in-arms came here, and he didn't say anything to greet him. What's the matter, don't you want us to come?" Ding Wei and Kong Jie shouted as they walked into the room.

"Hey, hey, Lao Ding and Lao Kong are here, Lao Zhao, go tell the chef class and ask them to cook some good dishes, and bring some canned meat and fruit that we seized here, wait a minute Have a drink with them." Li Yunlong said to Zhao Gang, got up and walked out: "You two are not outsiders, why do you want our old Li to come out to greet you in person?"

After speaking, Li Yunlong accompanied the two of them to the house, chatting while drinking tea.

After a while, the cooking class prepared the meals and brought them up.

"Old Ding, Lao Kong, how many devils did you two kill this time, and how much money did you make?" Li Yunlong asked curiously while pouring wine for the two of them.

Hearing Li Yunlong's question, Kong Jie said, "Hey, it's definitely not as rich as you, Li Yunlong. Our independent regiment wiped out more than 800 devils this time, and captured almost two battalions of weapons and equipment, that is, food There are relatively few, and I won’t hide it from you. I came here this time mainly to ask for help from you, Lao Li. To tell the truth, if there is no harvest, our independent group may starve.”

This can't be blamed on Kong Jie. Originally, the devils didn't bring much food to support Ping'an County. Even if they were all captured by the independent regiment, they would only last for a few more days. Such a small amount of supplies could not solve the problem at all.

The only way now is to borrow from Li Yunlong. After all, everyone knows that Li Yunlong has made a fortune now. On the way here, he has already asked Ding Wei. Although the situation of the new second regiment is better than that of the independent regiment, the food is just right. There is enough food for oneself, and there is no way to support the independent group.

So all of Kong Jie's hopes now rest on Li Yunlong. If Li Yunlong doesn't help, he can only take the troops to find the devils.

But in this way, it is bound to cause heavy casualties to the independent regiment. After all, this is not the same as the previous ambush.

The devil's stronghold is not so easy to attack, and this is not a problem that can be solved by attacking one or two strongholds, but if there are too many operations, the devil will definitely take precautions, and maybe they will ambush the independent group at that time.

Hearing Kong Jie's words, Li Yunlong turned to look at Zhao Gang who was on the side. After all, Li Yunlong was only in charge of fighting in the new regiment, and Zhao Gang was in charge of the logistics. He really didn't know the logistics situation in his regiment.

Seeing Li Yunlong looking towards him, Zhao Gang couldn't keep silent. If you want to say whether the Xinyi Regiment can support the Independent Regiment, it is definitely possible. Although the logistics reserves of the Xinyi Regiment are not very rich, don't forget, the Xinyi Regiment There are ten thousand people in one group.

If you save a little, it will be enough for the independent regiment to feed for a month. Besides, Li Yunlong has decided to disperse the troops.At that time, each battalion will have its own base area, and the regiment headquarters will only be responsible for the logistics issues in the early stage. After a while, each battalion will definitely let each battalion take care of themselves.

In this way, it is completely possible to support the independent regiment, so Zhao Gang said: "What is the matter with Captain Kong, you, Lao Li and Captain Ding are also brothers in the trenches. Besides, you are now in the southwestern part of Shanxi. Just us, our three troops. No matter how we look at it, it is our duty to help the Independent Regiment. Maybe our Xinyi Regiment will have to trouble you, Commander Kong, for anything in the future."

Hearing Zhao Gang's words, Kong Jie quickly got up and picked it up, and was drunk, and then thanked excitedly: "I don't want to say anything. From now on, Xinyituan will only answer if there is something to do. I, Kong Jie, will never frown."

"Hey, hey, I said you Kong Er fool, can you stop being so sensational, just for food?" Li Yunlong joked beside him.

"It's not a trivial matter, you don't know, Lao Li, I've been so worried about the food that I'm almost turning gray." Kong Jie knew that Li Yunlong didn't say this to laugh at him, so he He didn't care that after all, he was an old comrade-in-arms for more than ten years, and he still knew who Li Yunlong was, otherwise the relationship between the three of them wouldn't be so good.

At this time, Ding Wei on the side said: "Okay, now that the problem of Lao Kong has been solved, let's talk about what to do next. The devil has regained his strength and will definitely retaliate against us..."

But before Ding Wei finished speaking, Li Yunlong interrupted: "That's why we can't give the little devil a chance. Now that the devil's strength is damaged and we can't do anything about it, we have to seize the opportunity to take advantage of his illness. His life..."

"Old Li, what do you mean..., continue to attack the little devil?" Kong Jie asked in surprise.

He originally wanted to accept it as soon as he saw it. Although their regiment captured not a lot of logistics supplies in this battle, they still had a lot of weapons and ammunition. He wanted to take advantage of this time to speed up training and expand the army after the autumn harvest. The devils engaged in a head-on conflict.But I didn't expect Li Yunlong to do the opposite and continue to trouble the devils.

Hearing what Li Yunlong said, Ding Wei looked at him curiously. The main reason was that Li Yunlong had the same idea as him, that he wanted to take advantage of his illness to kill him. It will not be easy.

Although there are various difficulties on my own side now, the devil is even more difficult than myself, so there is nothing to be afraid of.But he just didn't know what Li Yunlong's next move would be, so Ding Wei didn't rush to speak, but looked at him, wanting to hear what Li Yunlong would say next.

Hearing Kong Jie's words, Li Yunlong got up and took out the map from the cabinet, then tidied up the kang table and spread it on the table.

"No matter what happens to your two regiments, anyway, our new regiment will not just watch. I plan to occupy Ping'an County, except for the county seat, and rely on the vast countryside to block the devils in reverse, and keep the small The devils are trapped to death in the county." Li Yunlong pointed to the location of Ping'an County and said to the two.

"Lao Li, although the idea is good, but does the Xinyi Regiment have the strength? With such a large area, it will definitely not work if there are fewer troops, and maybe they will be eaten up one by one by the little devils." Ding Wei stared at the map and frowned. Said.

Although we know that the Xinyi Regiment is strong, but after this battle, the loss must not be small, and Ping'an County is the largest among the nearby counties, and the number of troops is too small and too scattered. Maybe they will do it kindly Bad things, the devils find opportunities.

But Li Yunlong didn't care about Ding Wei's words and continued: "I plan to split the four battalions of our regiment into eight battalions, and there are exactly eight towns in Ping'an County, and one battalion is stationed in a town. If we want to break through one by one, we also have enough time for reinforcements."

"Besides, when we create a target and occupy all the places except the county seat, even if the little devil wants to do something, he won't have this chance. As long as the devil leaves the city, we will definitely be discovered. We have enough time to come. Deploy troops."

After speaking, Li Yunlong smiled and looked at the two old comrades in arms. He had thought of this kind of thing a long time ago, and he also thought of a way to deal with it.

As long as he creates this strategic goal by himself, every move of the little devil will be under his nose.

And he was not unprepared, he planned to build permanent fortifications around the county at that time, even if the little devil planned to head-on, Li Yunlong was not afraid at all.

After all, the army has an advantage and relies on fortifications. Even if the devil's individual strength is stronger than his own, as the defensive side, the advantage must be on his side. At that time, he will not be afraid of himself, but the devil. As long as he dares to provoke himself When he was angry, he attacked the county seat himself.

"Lao Li, this is a big banner for you. Eight battalions, my dear, you really dare. We all know that you, Li Yunlong, have made a fortune. I didn't expect you to make such a fortune." Hearing Li Yunlong's words Kong Jie didn't know what to say.

Look at Li Yunlong looking at himself, he is also the head of the regiment, and he is still a regular regiment with an establishment.

Why is there such a big gap in strength? Originally, Kong Jie thought that he had a regiment of 3000 people, not to mention being in the 386th brigade, even in the 129th division, he was a proper main force regiment.

But it is incomparable with Li Yunlong's Xinyi regiment. I have three battalions, but others have eight battalions.Although Li Yunlong's position is still the head of the regiment, in fact there is a reduced division of troops.

Given time, I really can't imagine what the new group will develop into.

But Ding Wei was stunned when he heard Li Yunlong's words. Li Yunlong's thoughts coincided with his, and Ding Wei thought the same way, but his thoughts were not as big as Li Yunlong's. After all, the strength of the new second regiment lies here.

According to his thinking, in the next period of time, the New Second Regiment will definitely expand the area of ​​​​the base area, take down two or three towns, and increase the depth of its strategy. In the group fight, the new second group also has enough room for detours.

The three were chatting while drinking, and it was night before they knew it. Originally, Li Yunlong planned to call Zhang Dabiao and the others to a meeting at night to discuss the next deployment.

But I didn't expect that Ding Wei and Kong Jie came back. The three drank a lot, and at this point, except for the sentinel, everyone went back to the house to rest, and they had to wait for the meeting tomorrow.

…………

At noon the next day, Xinyi regiment headquarters.

Li Yunlong saw that almost all the people came, so he asked everyone to sit down, and then took out the map.

"Head, if you have anything to say, just say it directly?" Zhang Dabiao said first.

Hearing the voice, Li Yunlong gave Zhang Dabiao an angry look and then said slowly: "I called everyone here today. I have an important announcement to make. Now there are four battalions in our regiment. I discussed it with Commissar Zhao. , intending to split each battalion into two battalions...."

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, the battalion commanders below were stunned for a moment, not knowing why the regiment commander did this.

Of course, they are not willing to split up the troops. After all, no one wants to see the team they have worked so hard to make wedding dresses for others, and their former subordinates will be equal to themselves in the future.
