Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Liu Changshun also understood that this matter could not be rushed and had to be done slowly. Right now, only their special operations battalion was strong and could not change the situation too much.

"At that time, we have to take back all the territories occupied by the Japanese!" Zhao Ming and others said with a serious face.

.........

The next morning, Li Jin and his men continued their journey. When they were less than six miles away from the base, they were discovered by the soldiers on guard.

The veteran was very excited when he saw Li Jin and his team appearing from a distance. He quickly took out his walkie-talkie and contacted Xu Qingfeng.

"Deputy battalion commander, the battalion commander is back!" the old soldier said excitedly.

"Okay, got it." Xu Qingfeng responded calmly.

"Sergeant, who is the battalion commander?!" a new recruit asked. He had never seen the battalion commander since he came to the base. They were always led by the deputy battalion commander Xu Qingfeng.

"See the one in the front? He's our battalion commander." The old soldier looked at Xu Qingfeng who was walking in front and introduced him.

"Oh, I see. It seems that the battalion commander doesn't look fierce at all." The recruit nodded and said. He thought the battalion commander looked ferocious, but he didn't expect that he looked quite ordinary except that he was handsome.

"How can the battalion commander be fierce? He is very kind on weekdays, except during training." The veteran replied.

The battalion commander usually looks serious only during training and fighting. Otherwise he is very kind and easy to get along with.

Soon, Li Jin came closer, and the old soldiers and the new recruits came forward to salute.

"Battalion Commander! You're finally back." The old soldier was a little excited.

"Well, is this the new soldier?!" Li Jin nodded and looked at the young man next to him. He looked very unfamiliar and there was no murderous intent in his eyes. It was obvious that he had never seen blood.

"Yes, his name is Tan Xiaoliu." The old soldier quickly introduced.

"Hello, Battalion Commander!" Tan Xiaoliu saluted again.

"Not bad, not bad. The training is okay, but it lacks a bit of murderous aura." Li Jin smiled and patted Tan Xiaoliu on the shoulder.

"I haven't killed any enemy yet, so naturally I don't have any murderous intent." Tan Xiaoliu replied naively.

"Haha, don't worry, there will be a chance soon. How is the training going now? How well can you hit moving targets within a hundred meters?!" Li Jin laughed twice and asked casually.

The new recruits had no chance to kill the enemy, but that was before that. Once he understood the situation of the base, he could start arranging combat training.

"Reporting to the battalion commander, I can now hit nine out of ten moving targets within a hundred meters, and seven or eight out of ten at a hundred and twenty meters." Tan Xiaoliu looked at the old soldier and replied confidently.

"Good boy, well done." Li Jin praised.

It seems that during the time he was away, Xu Qingfeng still managed the base in an orderly manner.

"Nothing has happened in the base recently, right?!" Li Jin asked the veteran.

"No, basically just training, I've never gone out," the veteran responded.

"Yeah." Li Jin nodded. Keeping Xu Qingfeng was indeed the right choice.

"Battalion Commander, are those behind you newly recruited soldiers?!" The veteran saw the young men in the team. Although they all carried guns, it was obvious that they had never killed the enemy and there was no murderous intent in their eyes.

"I recruited them when I came back. You continue to stand guard. I will go back first, otherwise your Captain Xu will scold me." Li Jin said with a smile.

"Yes!" The old soldier also laughed when he heard it.

Ten minutes later, Li Jin and his team returned to the base.

There are many more dormitories in the base now, and it is obvious that a lot of people have been recruited.

Xu Qingfeng stood not far away and looked at Li Jin with an expressionless face.

"Haha, Old Xu, long time no see. I missed you so much." After seeing Xu Qingfeng, Li Jin laughed twice, opened his arms and walked forward to give Xu Qingfeng a bear hug.

"Go away." Xu Qingfeng pushed Li Jin away with a look of disgust.

"Old Xu, I didn't expect that after not seeing you for so long, you actually dislike me." Li Jin looked at Xu Qingfeng with resentment on his face, like a bullied young wife.

"Stop it, you just threw a bunch of things to me and ran away. You still have the nerve to talk to me. It's okay if you just come back, but you also cause trouble and waste my time. Do you know how tired I am and how much work I have done?" Xu Qingfeng kept scolding me.

Thinking about the work he had done these days, he felt exhausted. Recruiting people, training, and keeping an eye on the progress of the arsenal, each of these things was very exhausting.

Li Jin didn't dare to say a word and could only be scolded. What he did was indeed not right. He left all the tasks to Xu Qingfeng and led the troops to fight.

The soldiers in the rear tried to hold back their laughter when they saw this, and their faces turned red, for they were afraid that they would not be able to hold back and would be punished more severely by the battalion commander.

The new recruits looked curious, and some couldn't help but ask the veterans next to them.

"Who is this person? The battalion commander's leader? How dare he talk to the battalion commander like that?!" the new recruit asked.

In his opinion, no one should dare to say this to such a powerful person as the battalion commander.

"When our deputy battalion commander was a new recruit, he and the battalion commander had a close relationship. Often, things in the battalion,
The deputy battalion commander is in charge. Our battalion commander basically doesn't take care of anything other than fighting and training, so he leaves everything to the deputy battalion commander.
Especially this time, it was the battalion commander who led us out, and all the work was left to the deputy battalion commander." The old soldier replied in a low voice.

"So that's how it is. No wonder the battalion commander was scolded like this." The new recruit suddenly realized what was going on. Anyone would feel uncomfortable.

So when the battalion commander was scolded, he didn't dare to say a word. Those who didn't know would think that the deputy battalion commander was a new recruit.

At this time, Xu Qingfeng saw the new recruits in the team out of the corner of his eye and stopped. He was so busy looking at Li Jin that he didn't notice that there were new recruits in the team.

"Did you recruit some soldiers when you came back?!" Xu Qingfeng asked.

"Well, when we passed through Henan, we wiped out a group of bandits and saved a village..." Li Jin nodded and told the story.

"Go back quickly." Xu Qingfeng urged him to turn around and leave.

Li Jin followed.

"Old Xu, you've been working hard recently." Li Jin chuckled, looking guilty.

"You should talk about how you killed the Japanese on the way back and got exposed." Xu Qingfeng said. "What exposure? That was all my battle plan. I deliberately exposed myself, then lured the Japanese to surround me, and then used the Japanese's tactics." Li Jin replied seriously. He would not admit it.

"Bullshit, I don't know you well enough." Xu Qingfeng rolled his eyes and didn't believe what Li Jin said at all.

"Old Xu, what's the current situation of our base? How many people are there?!" Li Jin changed the subject.

"There are a total of five thousand five hundred and sixty-three people. Including you, it's about six thousand one or six thousand two." Xu Qingfeng counted the new recruits brought back by Li Jin.

"Damn, Old Xu, you're so awesome. You actually recruited so many people!" Li Jin was shocked after hearing this. He didn't expect that their base would have so many more soldiers in just a few months.

Xu Qingfeng is indeed a very capable deputy battalion commander. It is indeed difficult for him to manage so many people.

"It's not bad. After all, we are still a few hundred people short of 7,000 people." When Xu Qingfeng heard Li Jin's praise, the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

"That's already pretty awesome! Fortunately, you're here, saving me a lot of time." Li Jin continued to praise.

The two men returned to their residence. As for the new recruits, they were taken to the dormitory by the veterans, and then someone was asked to familiarize the new recruits with the base so that they could start training tomorrow.

"Tell me what happened in Changsha." Xu Qingfeng started talking as soon as he sat down on the kang. He took out a bottle of wine from under the low table and poured a bowl of wine for Li Jin.

"Okay." Li Jin also got on the kang and began to talk to Xu Qingfeng about the war in Changsha.

They chatted for several hours until it was dark, and they also drank for several hours.

"Old Xu, listen to me. When I led my men to chase the Japanese and found the location of the Japanese division commander, I made a plan decisively.
They guessed where the Japanese division commander might be, and after a round of bombing, the Japanese division commander was killed on the spot.

Although the Japanese division commander was not killed, he was no different from being dead." Li Jin was already a little drunk as he drank.

However, he didn't care. He felt relatively at ease back at the base, and it was okay to get drunk.

"How do you know that the Japanese division commander is disabled? Did the leader tell you?!" Xu Qingfeng asked.

"Of course. Our intelligence network is very powerful, so it's normal to get information about the Japanese." Li Jin responded.

He still knows a lot of things, their intelligence network is very powerful!
They talked for more than half an hour before they finished telling the story over there.

"Well, it seems that your performance in Changsha is indeed good." Xu Qingfeng nodded.

"Old Xu, how is the training of the new recruits in our base going?!" Li Jin asked.

He is more concerned about this now and wants to know the strength of the base.

"Basically, the training is almost done. These recruits can now basically hit 9 out of 10 moving targets within 100 meters, and can easily hit fixed targets within 300 meters.
The training between the companies is also very coordinated, and the psychological training is also very strong, so although they are still nervous, they are likely to be able to adjust.
Although they are still far behind the veterans, they are definitely better than the devils." Xu Qingfeng explained the situation.

He has been very busy these days. He has not been careless about training at all, especially since there are more people in the base. He dare not be careless at all.

"Thank you for your hard work in taking care of so many things." Li Jin said again. If he were asked to take care of all these things, he would probably be overwhelmed.

"It's all to make them stronger, it's nothing." Xu Qingfeng didn't care.

In his opinion, if the base became stronger, he could kill more Japanese invaders, so his tiredness would be nothing.

"You ask this, does it mean you have any battle plan? For example, bombing the Japanese airport in Taiyuan?!" Xu Qingfeng changed the subject.

If there wasn't a big battle plan, Li Jin wouldn't have asked in such detail, and Li Jin had mentioned it before.

"Hehe, it turns out that you are the one who knows me best." Li Jin smiled and admitted it.

"I knew you couldn't rest, so I've already figured out the situation at Taiyuan Airport.
Their airport was located less than ten miles west of Taiyuan, and there was a regiment of Japanese soldiers guarding the airport.

It is not easy for us to capture this airport because it is too close to Taiyuan.

Once we attack this airport, the Japanese at the west gate can quickly send troops to support us.
With so few people, it is too difficult for us to capture the airport in a short time, and we also have to send people to block the Japanese reinforcements.

If we are caught by the devils by accident, something unexpected might happen." Xu Qingfeng explained the details.

If it was just the Japanese at the airport, he thought there would be no problem in taking them down. The key was that other Japanese would come to support him, so he would need to divide his forces to stop them, which would be very problematic.

If we fail to take over the airport in a short period of time, we may be surrounded by the Japanese, which is very dangerous!
"I didn't expect that the Japanese would send so many people to protect the airport." Li Jin frowned.

He thought that there were only about two thousand Japanese soldiers guarding Taiyuan Airport, but he didn't expect that there was actually an entire regiment.

In this case, it is indeed impossible to take it down in a short period of time.

The airport is only five kilometers away from Taiyuan, and the Japanese can provide support in half an hour at most.

While attacking the airport, we also had to divide our troops to block the Japanese reinforcements, which was extremely difficult.

"Although it's a bit difficult, it's not impossible to defeat us. I've discussed it with the regiment commander. Once we confirm the intelligence here and make a plan, we can contact the commander and ask them to come over." Li Jin changed the subject. It's true that they couldn't defeat us if they came to fight, but with the help of the New 1st Regiment, the situation would be much more stable.

"How is the development on the captain's side?!" Xu Qingfeng also asked. The new regiment should be developing quite well now.

"The New 1st Regiment now has 5,000 troops. Together with our side, there are more than 10,000 people in total. If we take down an airport, we will be too embarrassed to see anyone." Li Jin said.

If they can capture the Japanese airport with the help of the New 1st Regiment, then there will be no need to fight.

"Well, with the New 1st Regiment here, our confidence is much greater. However, we also have a secret weapon. If we can equip it, it will be a sure thing for us to take over the airport." Xu Qingfeng couldn't help but smile as he said the latter part.

"Secret weapon?! What secret weapon?!" Li Jin was a little unreacted for a moment.

"What do you think this secret weapon is?!" Xu Qingfeng asked back, with a smile on his face!
"Wait a minute, that semi-automatic rifle is out?!" Li Jin suddenly reacted and spoke quickly.

"Well, this rifle was manufactured by the arsenal some time ago. I tried it and it is very practical. If it is equipped, it can completely crush the Japanese." Xu Qingfeng nodded.

"Haha, I didn't expect that they actually made it. Lao Liu and the others are so awesome! Can this gun be mass-produced now?!" Li Jin couldn't help laughing.

The power of this Type 56 semi-automatic rifle is still very powerful. As long as this gun is equipped to those veterans, the Japanese will be crushed by them if the number of people is the same.

In this situation, attacking an airport is not an easy task, and there is no need to even ask the New 1st Regiment for help.
