Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 284 Chapter 283, One Night March

In the arsenal factory area, several beams of flashlight were sweeping back and forth on the mountain road, and behind them there were more than a dozen torches burning, forming a line several hundred meters long.

In the light of the torches, people carrying guns and backpacks walked with ease and big strides. The night wind was very cold, blowing on people, but it could not blow away the burning mood.

"Comrades, follow closely, we're going up the mountain!" The guide's voice came from the front, and everyone hurriedly tied the supplies on their backs tightly to make themselves more agile.

At this time, Li Yuexuan was no longer wearing his homemade leather sandals, nor the thousand-layer soles that women wore, but the Zhaowu military boots captured from the Japanese. Not to mention, these boots, which the Japanese soldiers had to pay for themselves, were of really good quality, with hard soles and anti-slip spikes, especially suitable for mountaineering.

Of course, they are not as good as the later training boots, but they are better than the rubber-soled shoes of the Central Army for mountain warfare.

Walking on the solid ground, the team meandered along the winding mountain road at the Zuohuishan Pass. Li Yuexuan had never been here before, but he had seen it from afar. He also knew that when the arsenal was moved from Han Village some time ago, many of the equipment were carried here by this road!

"There is a ladder ahead, be careful not to slip, the horse drivers go that way!" The guide's voice came again, and soon there was a cliff ahead. However, there were several wooden ladders erected on the cliff wall, and everyone climbed up the mountain by stepping on the ladders. The war horses and pack horses did not have human abilities, so they could only go around on the winding path on the side...

It took several hours for everyone to pass through the Zuohuishan Pass and passed through several villages in the middle.

The village was not clearly visible in the night, but Li Yuexuan knew that there was a village called Xianwang Village, where the forging plant of the arsenal was located, and smelting could also be carried out. For example, the shells of mortar shells and grenade launchers were processed here. Well, here they are called 50 shells and 82 shells, referring to the models of these two shells.

Moreover, the grenade launchers carried by Li Qingyun and Song Changsheng, who were following closely beside Li Yuexuan, were produced here! In fact, the grenade launcher carried by Song Changsheng was also newly made by the arsenal. Well, Li Qingyun and Song Changsheng were two of the three veterans who were left to the company, and were arranged by Xing Weiguo to help carry things beside Li Yuexuan.

Everyone is used to Li Yuexuan's "favorable treatment". Even some veterans feel uneasy when they see that their captain, Peregrine Falcon, does not have a grenade launcher. This is the result of Li Yuexuan bombing the devils with a grenade launcher again and again! As long as Li Yuexuan has a grenade launcher at hand, everyone will be confident!
After passing the pass of Zuohui Mountain, it was all downhill! Not long after we started walking, a sentry post appeared on the road, and the comrades of the special forces company hurried up to answer the call.

Others didn't know, but Li Yuexuan knew that this area was where the headquarters was located. These sentinels were here to protect the headquarters! In fact, the headquarters special forces regiment was now serving as the garrison force for the headquarters and the 129th Division. Well, the division headquarters was always with the headquarters at this time...

The team did not pass directly through the village where the headquarters was located, but passed through the surrounding mountains and forests. Not far away, a river blocked the way. Li Yuexuan glanced at the map. It was written as Panhong River, a tributary of Zhuozhang River. Panhong River was probably named after Panlong Town and Hongshui Town...

Thinking about these unimportant things, the team crossed a wooden bridge and re-entered the mountain area. However, the mountains here were no longer inaccessible, but mostly hills, with some north-south ridges and residual veins on both sides, which looked like fish bones.

Then, Li Yuexuan actually saw a place called Shuiyu Village on the map. Seeing this village, Li Yuexuan actually thought of a certain aunt-pushing maniac who played a routine to the end... Hmm... The APP can no longer find a certain book...

As he walked and thought, time passed quickly, and gradually it was dawn. At this time, Li Yuexuan and his party had already crossed the large area between Wuxiang, Yushe, and Liaoxian from the arsenal and arrived at a place called Nanzhuang. At this time, the morning mist rose, and the mountains and forests were filled with bird calls, and occasionally there were beast roars, making the village seem particularly quiet.

In fact, this is the temporary location of the brigade headquarters, and there are troops from the 772nd Regiment and the Independent Regiment, as well as the 2nd Battalion of the Independent Detachment, operating around here.

The distance along the way was more than 120 miles even in a straight line, not to mention the detour! Especially near Yushe, the Japanese had built a base, a road from Yushe to Liao County, and patrols on the road. In order not to reveal the destination of this trip, everyone could only find a time difference and quickly pass through the road.

I have to say that the comrades of the Special Forces Regiment were really good. Along the way, they perfectly avoided all the Japanese strongholds and a large number of villages, and the route they took was almost the shortest.

Of course, it is not important to say these now. What is important is that Li Yuexuan saw the neat team waiting at the entrance of the village in the morning mist. And the man in leather jacket and glasses in front of the team...

"Hello, Brigade Commander! The first company of the Beishan Guerrillas is here to report!" Xing Weiguo stepped forward and reported to the brigade commander, with Li Yuexuan and Zhu Xingyu following behind him.

"Haha... I went to the headquarters for a meeting a few days ago, and Minister Zhang said he wanted to give our brigade a surprise. I thought he would generously give me several tons of artillery shells, but instead he armed us with a fully semi-automatic reinforced company! Comrades, you have worked hard along the way. The village has prepared food and drinks for you. Let's go into the village to rest first!" The brigade commander said enthusiastically, then walked up and held Li Yuexuan's hand.

"Comrade Peregrine, this time, we have formed a team based on your opinion. How is it? Do you have the confidence to fight a beautiful battle to show your strength? The Japanese launched the attack in early July. Now it is November. These bastards have been wreaking havoc here for four months. It is time to beat them back!"

"Brigade Commander, just give us any mission you have and we guarantee that we will do it brilliantly!" Before Li Yuexuan could speak, Zhu Xingyu quickly took over the conversation.

"That's right, Brigade Commander, just arrange any tasks. We are confident that we can destroy any enemy that stands in our way!" Li Yuexuan also expressed his opinion.

"We'll talk about your combat mission later. Your current mission is to eat, drink water and rest. A few days ago, the independent detachment defeated a Japanese transport team in the north and seized a lot of good things, which we will keep for our heroes! You fought very well in the battle of Liangjia Village! You wiped out most of the troops of a Japanese regiment and killed the regiment commander, which inspired the anti-Japanese enthusiasm of the whole country!"
