On the battlefield of Huangping Town.

The soldiers from various regiments in northwestern Shanxi and the fellow villagers mobilized by Zhao Gang to help were happily busy on the battlefield.

Don't let go of a single Japanese soldier, and don't miss a single bullet.

Li Yunlong took Yang Yuanshan back to his temporary command post, waiting for the commanders of each regiment to come back and report on the situation.

……

Soon, the commanders of the two supplementary regiments he personally led reported back their respective casualties.

Basically, each regiment lost two to three hundred people and four to five hundred were injured.

Li Yunlong was certainly not satisfied with the result. After all, the tough and fierce battles were fought by the Special Forces Regiment.

These two supplementary regiments were only responsible for the night attack the night before yesterday and the work of beating the downtrodden dog last night.

But I didn't expect that there would be so many casualties.

He couldn't help but speak and scold the two team leaders.

Yang Yuanshan, who was standing by, saw these two guys who were originally just company commanders of the divisional guard regiment, but were temporarily promoted to commanders of the supplementary regiment. His forehead was covered with sweat, and he quickly stepped out to smooth things over:

"Leader, the comrades in the supplementary regiment are originally composed of militia and guerrillas. Although they have no shortage of weapons and ammunition, they have little battlefield experience and poor battlefield survivability. This is also normal.

You can't use the standards of the main group to demand them!"

Li Yunlong certainly knew this, and after he cursed his mother, the anger in his heart disappeared.

Now being dissuaded by Yang Yuanshan, he immediately ordered the two of them to speed up the arrangement of people and send the wounded to the field hospital.

Seeing that the aggressive Li Yunlong finally shut up, the two regiment commanders immediately felt relieved.

They couldn't help but look at Yang Yuanshan with gratitude.

Then he slipped out in a flash.

……

As soon as the two of them left, Ding Wei, covered in dirt, strode in.

Shouting loudly:
"Old Li! Old Li!

This battle is such a fucking pleasure!"

Li Yunlong was relieved when he saw his old comrade was fully grown and grinned, saying:

"Delighted? Lao Ding, tell me, how come you feel happy?
Did you make a fortune?"

When Ding Wei heard this, he was instantly startled.

I feel like I'm getting a little too proud of myself. I'm about to be robbed by this stingy person, Li Yunlong!

He rolled his eyes around, trying to interrupt and put the matter aside.

At this time, he saw Yang Yuanshan standing on the side, and quickly ignored Li Yunlong's question and greeted him with a smile:
"Captain Yang, you are here too!
So, your group made a fortune this time, right? "

His clumsy way of changing the subject made Yang Yuanshan smile.

Ruthlessly crush his little thoughts:
"Captain Ding, our regiment left without even cleaning up the battlefield, and we didn't get anything."

"What? The battlefield wasn't even cleaned up?

What's going on here?"

Ding Wei was confused.

"Humph, Lao Ding, who do you think is like you, treating that little piece of junk as a treasure?

Yang Yuanshan doesn't care about these things!"

Li Yunlong was very happy to see the confused expression on Ding Wei's face, and he started to mock him mercilessly.

Ding Wei felt somewhat aggrieved after being criticized.

He immediately prepared to reveal a little bit about how much benefit he had gained.

But the next second, he thought of the equipment situation in the special forces regiment and quickly gave up this self-humiliating idea.

Sour sigh:

"My goodness, it seems that I, Ding Wei, am too shortsighted!"

Seeing that he had finally behaved himself, Li Yunlong chuckled. Just as he was about to strike while the iron was hot and continue to scold him, someone else came in from the cave.

It was Xing Zhiguo and Zhang Dabiao.

When they saw Li Yunlong and his two companions, Xing and Zhang hurriedly greeted them and exchanged pleasantries.

……

There were no chairs in the cave, so Li Yunlong could only ask everyone to sit on the ammunition boxes, and then asked about the losses of the New 1st Regiment and the Independent Regiment.

Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo immediately recounted their losses one by one.

It was learned that the New 2500st Regiment had lost more than people during this period, and now there are only more than a thousand people left.

The independent regiment lost seven or eight thousand people, and now has less than 5000 people left.

Li Yunlong suddenly felt so heartbroken that his heart, liver, spleen, lungs and kidneys all started to ache.

Although he had anticipated the losses of each regiment, he never imagined that the losses would be so devastating!

The several main regiments under his command originally had nearly 30,000 people in total, but now, there are only a little over 10,000 left!
The absolute loss is more than half!
A surge of anger rose in his heart, and he immediately pointed at Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo and cursed:
"Old Ding, Old Xing, you two bastards, how the hell did you fight?
The tough battle was fought by the special forces, and you are just trying to take advantage of it. Why are you still suffering such a huge loss?"

Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo were of course somewhat dissatisfied with being scolded.

But they immediately thought that compared with the Special Forces Regiment's direct defeat of the Japanese, the performance of the New 1st Regiment and the Independent Regiment was indeed very mediocre.

I can only bow my head and remain silent.

It was Zhang Dabiao who stepped out to smooth things over:

"Leader, the Japanese soldiers in these two divisions are indeed not weaklings.

Last night, I personally led the soldiers to charge and encountered many scattered Japanese soldiers. They had high tactical qualities and fighting spirit!"

"Zhang Dabiao, do you have the right to speak?"

Li Yunlong was like an angry lion, biting whoever he caught.

Seeing the awkward atmosphere in the cave, Yang Yuanshan could only step forward and say:

"Leader, although our several regiments lost more than 10,000 men this time, we should have killed more than 40,000 enemies, right?
It’s already very good!

After all, the 1st and 8th Divisions are Class A divisions that have just been transferred from the Liaodong Army!
Compared with the second-line divisions formed by the Japanese in the occupied areas in recent years, they are still much stronger.

Report back and the brigade commander will definitely treat you to a drink!"

Li Yunlong's attitude just now was just to warn Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo. Of course, he didn't intend to do anything to these two old comrades.

Now, after hearing Yang Yuanshan's words, his brows relaxed immediately and he continued:
"Hey, the brigade commander has to treat me to a drink. I've made him look great this time."

Seeing that the atmosphere had finally eased, Zhang Dabiao quickly joined in the fun and echoed:
"Leader, I think in the future, the Japanese tanks will all have 'Specialized to attack the Eighth Route Army in Northwest Shanxi' written on them!"

When Li Yunlong heard this, he seemed to see this ridiculous scene in front of him, and finally laughed:
"Hahaha, if the Japs really want to do this, they think highly of me!
When the time comes, I will have a drink to celebrate!"

For him, nothing could make him more proud than being valued by his opponents.

……

After some joking, Zhang Dabiao asked Yang Yuanshan curiously:

"Yang Yuanshan, your special forces regiment defeated so many Japanese soldiers head-on this time. How much did you lose?"

Hearing this question, Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo also looked over with inquiring eyes.

In this battle, their two regiments were just playing supporting roles, and they suffered heavy losses. The Special Forces Regiment, which was the main force, couldn't have suffered less losses than them, right?

"The losses are huge. Now we have less than 6000 combatants in our entire regiment."

Yang Yuanshan replied calmly.

After hearing the first half of his sentence, Ding Wei and the other two wanted to comfort him, but after hearing the second half, they suddenly felt that they were the ones who needed comforting.

Everyone couldn't help but complain in their hearts: Are you talking human language?
The losses were huge, but there were still 6000 people left!
Where the hell can we put our faces?

No wonder Li Yunlong scolded us!
This is not unfair at all!

Zhang Dabiao, who was Yang Yuanshan’s old battalion commander and had a close relationship with him, continued to ask:
"Yang Yuanshan, how did your regiment defeat two divisions of the Japanese so quickly?
I thought this battle would last ten days or half a month, but I didn’t expect it to be over in just two days.”

Yang Yuanshan smiled slightly and introduced the course of the battle to them:
"No big deal, just used heavy artillery to blow the Japanese into pieces..."

……

After hearing how the special forces regiment defeated the Japanese, Zhang Dabiao, Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo were all stunned.

Just like fighting head-on with two divisions of the Japanese army, and then blowing them up, is this really something that a basic regiment of our army can do? ? ?
Although they all knew the Special Forces Regiment very well, they were now shocked speechless by Yang Yuanshan's outrageous actions.

Several people wanted to ask him where he got so many cannons and shells!
But in the end, no one spoke.

They are not stupid and naturally know that there is definitely something fishy about the weapons and equipment of the special forces regiment.

Leaders at all levels must have been aware of this and may have even sent people to investigate secretly.

But since the matter has not been revealed, there is no need to ask more questions.

Even if he asked, I guess Yang Yuanshan wouldn't tell the truth.

The most I can do is to answer them perfunctorily by saying "I picked it up".

The most annoying thing is that this guy would always pretend to be innocent, as if everything he said was true!

……

Seeing that everyone was silent, Li Yunlong immediately stood up and said:
"You bastards, don't even try to compare yourself to the secret service.

That bastard Yang Yuanshan did not just defeat the Japanese army.

Their special operations company also killed the old devil Okamura and his chief of staff Tanabe Seigo!"

"What? Kill Okamura Ji Ning???"

Ding Wei was full of doubt about his life and almost thought he had heard it wrong.

Xing Zhiguo also asked:
"Captain Yang, aren't all your troops in Huangping Town?
How could——"

Yang Yuanshan quickly gave them a brief introduction to the special operations company's attack.

After hearing what happened, Ding Wei and his friends couldn't help but sigh:

"Good guy!

Captain Yang, you only sent a few dozen people and actually killed the old Japanese devil Okamura?
This kind of luck is unmatched!"

They all felt that every time they heard about the Special Forces Regiment’s battle achievements, their knowledge would be refreshed.

It’s really outrageous!
Zhang Dabiao asked excitedly:
"Yang Yuanshan, I will send some people to your special warfare company to learn from you.

Your team is so useful, our independent regiment should learn from it."

Yang Yuanshan was short of people right now, so he was naturally very happy when he saw Zhang Dabiao actually sent someone to him.

He smiled and nodded quickly:

"Okay! It's a small matter."

Zhang Dabiao didn't know that Yang Yuanshan was planning to use the people he sent as animals!

Seeing that he agreed so easily, I was so happy that I didn't know what to do.

He thought to himself: When the independent regiment also has a special operations company, I will find a few Japanese generals to kill them. I will never let the special operations company of the secret service regiment have all the glory!

……

Seeing that they had settled the matter, Ding Wei next to them couldn't help but drool with envy.

He also wants this special operations company!
But unfortunately, his current army only has more than a thousand people left, and they can barely maintain the skeleton of each battalion. They simply cannot spare any manpower to set up this thing.

I can only sigh in despair and put this thought aside for the time being.

……

After talking about the casualties of the troops, Li Yunlong was about to ask about the captured items of the New 1st Regiment and the Independent Regiment. Suddenly, Pan Wensong, the head of the supply department, came in and reported to him:

"Leader, with the help of our fellow villagers, we have compiled the preliminary results and spoils of war on the entire battlefield."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong immediately ignored Ding Wei and Xing Zhiguo and asked expectantly:

"Okay, Lao Pan, tell me now!"

Pan Wensong nodded and introduced:

"We captured more than 530 Japanese soldiers, mostly wounded soldiers and non-combatants from their divisional headquarters—"

"What? Why are there still prisoners?

Isn't this just causing trouble for me?"

Li Yunlong frowned and interrupted the other party.

Pan Wensong frowned when he saw that the other party seemed to want to do something inappropriate.

Quick reminder:

"Leader, we have discipline.

Since the Japanese have laid down their weapons and surrendered, we can't do anything to them!
Otherwise, Political Commissar Zhao will report you to the brigade headquarters."

Xing Zhiguo also quickly stood up and explained:

"Leader, most of these Japanese prisoners should have been captured by our regiment."

Upon hearing this, Li Yunlong could only snort coldly and complained:
"Humph! Old Xing, you are just too soft-hearted!

Keeping these sons of bitches will waste our food!"

Xing Zhiguo's qualifications were not worse than his, so he had to give him some face and could only complain and be done with it.

Then he ordered Pan Wensong:

"Old Pan, let those Japanese prisoners who can move help carry the spoils and lend their strength.

When eating, just make some black bean soup to make sure they don’t starve to death.

As for those who cannot move, just give them some herbal medicine to treat them, but don't waste my good medicine.

Understand? "

"Leader, isn't this too much?"

Pan Wensong was very hesitant.

If someone reported this to his superiors, he, as the head of the supply department of the Northwest Shanxi Division, would probably be punished!

Li Yunlong glared and immediately retorted:
“Where’s too much?

As a prisoner, do you still want to eat delicious food and drink spicy drinks?

That doesn't make sense!
As for the wounded you mentioned, didn’t I ask you to give them some herbal medicine to treat them?
What, the things passed down by our ancestors are not enough to deal with these bastards? "

Seeing him arguing so confidently, Pan Wensong was speechless and could only nod in agreement.

Ding Wei, Zhang Dabiao and Yang Yuanshan, on the other hand, covered their mouths and laughed.

Several people were thinking: Li Yunlong is really good at this dirty trick!
Only Xing Zhiguo's face twitched, and he thought to himself: If I had known this would happen, why would I have gone through so much trouble to let the soldiers keep the prisoners?
