Bright Sword: Take down the devil stronghold at the beginning

Chapter 349 The sweep is coming
The little devils have used so many troops. After analysis, they can't rashly fight against the enemy. They still have to counter-mopping up and break through.

The New Second Regiment was not at the junction, so it was relatively late to break through.

Of course, Li Yunlong is no stranger to anti-sweeping and breaking through, but this time the little devils have too many troops, so it's not a problem.

Long before the little devils raided the area, Wang Shuang told Li Yunlong some of his suggestions.

In a small meeting at the regiment headquarters.

"Wang Shuang, if you have any ideas, tell me."

Wang Shuang stood up and looked at the people in the room. Three battalion commanders, two reinforced company commanders, special team captain, regimental staff officer, political commissar, regimental commander, it can be said that the important figures of the new second regiment are all here.

"Everyone, according to the instructions from our superiors, the Japs are planning to carry out a large-scale raid on the base area. Basic intelligence from all aspects shows that this raid will not be the same as before. It will be larger in scale and mobilize more troops. For us, the situation is also different. It’s even more serious.”

Everyone knew what he was doing and nodded.

"I have a few suggestions that I would like to discuss with you."

Zhao Gang stood up, "Well, this time we are just discussing with each other. Anyone who has any ideas can speak freely."

Wang Shuang continued, "First of all, the situation this time is very serious, and most of us are fighting defensive stations, ambushes, and strategic shifts. I think our first task now is to mobilize our supplies and prepare food. It’s all gathered together for easy transportation. And that’s more.”

Wang Shuang looked at Li Yunlong, "Well, our regiment has multiple mortars and infantry artillery. Well, the mortars are not a big problem and are easy to transport, but the infantry artillery is very hindering our actions. So. I suggest that the infantry artillery be temporarily handed over to the brigade headquarters for unified management."

After Wang Shuang finished speaking, everyone looked at Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong glared, "Why are you looking at me?"

Everyone looked away tacitly. Although Li Yunlong's face was very troubled, he still said, "I agree with Wang Shuang's suggestion."

Well, the first suggestion was discussed. Wang Shuang continued, "Well, everyone, the little devil has a big appetite this time, so our task is very difficult. Not only us, but also the headquarters agency will most likely be transferred. But what? , I am personally very worried.”

Zhao Gang said doubtfully, "Don't worry about the headquarters. The leaders are behind us, and our troops are blocking them. There's no need to worry."

Wang Shuang looked at Zhao Gang. He had experienced relatively few counter-mops and did not understand what the leaders were thinking.

Wang Shuang motioned to Li Yunlong to speak.

"Well, political commissar, although it seems that there is no problem with the headquarters organization now, the leaders want to better command the battle and reduce the casualties of the soldiers, so..."

In short, the head of the Eighth Route Army will no longer watch the soldiers fighting in the front and hide in a safe place, but will go deep into the war zone.

Zhao Gang understood what Wang Shuang meant.

"Well, I see."

Wang Shuang continued to express his thoughts, "So, I am very worried about the safety of the leaders. Well, Captain Li, how many people are there in the special team now, and what is their combat effectiveness?" Li Aiguo stood up, "There are more than 80 people in the special team now, most of them are They are mature warriors, and only a dozen are new recruits."

"it is good."

Wang Shuang looked at everyone, "Everyone knows that objectively speaking, there is still a gap in strength between us and the Japs. For the Japs' encirclement and mopping up, it is impossible to move as a whole. It can only be divided into small groups and transferred in batches. In this way If so, the role of the special operations team becomes particularly important. Our special operations group is the only one in the entire Eighth Route Army, so I suggest that in this battle, the special operations group be divided into multiple groups to help friendly forces break through."

After everyone discussed it, they felt that Wang Shuang's suggestion was good, and then reported it to them. Although the heads of the headquarters hoped that more soldiers would be in the frontline troops and not have to worry about them, they finally accepted the good intentions of the New Second Regiment.

Wang Shuang chatted with the team leader responsible for the mission for a long time before setting off for the team assigned to the headquarters by the special operations team.

Many things were discussed at this meeting, and the strength of the New Second Regiment was also mobilized, preparing to face the oncoming war.

Pre-war mobilization began.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang stood in front of the soldiers.

"The Japanese are raiding our base area. This raid is no better than before. The situation may be even worse. I have only one thing to say."

Li Yunlong said while making gestures with a serious expression.

"There is no encirclement that cannot be broken in the world. For our new second regiment, I regard him as a breakout battle, what he regards as an attack. Do you have the courage to launch an attack on the enemy in front of us?"

The soldiers responded with a loud "Yes."

"Everyone, please remember that even if there is only one person left in the whole regiment, he will die on the way to charge. If anyone is afraid, I can give him a chance to take off his military uniform, lay down his weapons, and fight with the people. Transfer together. Is there any?"

The soldiers shouted firmly, "No."

"Okay. They are all decent men. They sharpened the bayonet for me, loaded the bullet into the chamber of the gun, and unscrewed the cap of the grenade. If they want to destroy the New Second Regiment, they still lack good teeth. . Time is running out, so I won’t say more. Next, please ask Political Commissar Zhao to mobilize before the battle."

Li Yunlong walked away two steps, Zhao Gang stepped forward.

Zhao Gang looked at the outstanding soldiers with a firm expression, "Comrades, I don't have much to say. I just want to tell you that since the beginning of winter, the Japanese have carried out brutal sweeps in the Jizhong area. The soldiers and the Japanese fought fiercely. At the same time, the enemy also carried out raids in the southeastern and northwestern areas of Shanxi. The enemy formed a huge encirclement in North China and wanted to eat us up. I don't want to hide it, and must tell the real situation. Let me tell you, we will face an unprecedented bloody battle, and the battle will be extremely cruel. Many of us will die. What I want to say is, no matter whether there are any more sacrifices, this is the price we have to bear. We are soldiers. , we have the mission and responsibility to defend the land and resist the enemy. If we don’t sacrifice, should we sacrifice our fathers and fellow villagers?”

"No."

"Comrades, although the enemy is outnumbered and we are greatly disparate in strength, we dare to fight with the enemy with our lives and open a bloody road. The brave will win when we meet on a narrow road. We must fight to show the majesty of the New Second Regiment."

The soldiers applauded.

Li Yunlong shouted, "I am ordering the entire regiment to use companies and platoons as units to carry out counterattacks against the enemy in separate groups to provide cover for the common people to retreat."
