Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 421 Chapter 420, We must be there in the Yuliao Campaign!
Because it was only a few miles away from the Zhoujia Village stronghold, there was no shortage of building materials for the reconstruction of Yin Jiulang Village... Well, after filling the blockade ditch with bricks and rubble from the Zhoucun stronghold, there was still a large area of ​​material left, so it was saved for the nearest village.

Of course, this actually has little to do with the guerrillas. Yin Jiulang Village is under the responsibility of Captain Guo and his district. It is up to Guo's people to guide the construction and decide how it will look like.

Liangjia Village also had no shortage of building materials! The trucks had a load of one and a half tons, and when they were pulling bricks, they brought a lot of them into the village. In less than a month, the woods on the east side of the village became the newest factory area, including the shed area where grenades were originally made.

As a military factory, protective measures are necessary! For example, thickening the outermost wall and building a bunker inside the wall are the most basic operations.

Just when the construction of the arsenal was completed and the equipment was pulled in for production, it was already late September, and it was time to launch a second offensive against the Japanese!

The Beishan guerrillas where Li Yuexuan was located were under the name of the 129th Brigade of the 386th Division. Although it was difficult to be with the brigade for a day in a year, the relationship was there. Therefore, Li Yuexuan thought that he had to participate in this attack! Although the guerrillas participated in the last attack and achieved relatively good results, the main company that really participated in the battle was the 2nd Company.

As for the 3rd and 4th Companies, they did nothing but dig up the railway and work as porters during those days, and had no chance to participate in the battle.

In the Liang family compound, in the main meeting room in the front yard, many guerrilla company commanders gathered together to hold a meeting.

"Captain, is the news reliable? Our division plans to attack Yushe and Liao County this time?" Since Xing Weiguo was not around, Li Yuexuan, the deputy captain, took on the role of the initiator and asked questions directly about everything.

"That's right. Our division will be the main force this time. The headquarters has decided to launch the Yuliao Campaign as the second phase of the war. The deployment is: the 385th Brigade and the 32nd Regiment will be the right wing team, and the main force will attack the enemy strongholds in Guantou, Pushang, Xiaolingdi and other places; our 386th Brigade and the 1st Death Column, with two regiments each, will be the left wing team to attack the strongholds of Yushe and Yanbi; the newly formed 2th Brigade will be the Pingliao Detachment to attack the Pingliao Highway and the north and south sections of the Heshun Highway, and intercept the enemy reinforcements from the south; the 10th and 17th Regiments of the Taiyue Military Region will form the Qinbei Detachment to attack the Baijin Road from Qinxian to the watershed section, and clamp down on the enemy reinforcements from the Baijin Railway." Zhao Danian explained the strategic intentions, which surprised everyone.

"Don't be surprised. This information is no longer afraid of being leaked because today is September 9. The team has already been deployed and will launch an attack tonight!" Zhu Xingyu explained.

"Then, what can our guerrillas do? In such a big battle, we, as a unit of the 386th Brigade, can't just sit there and watch!" Zheng Changfeng asked anxiously.

"What is the problem now? The brigade gave us this combat plan too late, and we have no way to participate in it at all! What the brigade meant is that the Japanese troops in the south have been attracted, so we can produce safely here and don't have to worry about sudden raids by the Japanese. The brigade still regards us as a production unit!" said Zhao Danian.

"Then we just stand there and watch? We have to do something, right? After all, we can mobilize a team of 800 people to participate in the Yuliao Campaign, and we will be a considerable force!" said Guo Liandong.

"But in the eyes of the brigade, division, and even the headquarters, we have done a great job in production and making more guns!" Xiao Fengyun spread his hands helplessly. "Besides, the distance is too far! Look at the location of the battle. The new 10th Brigade is on the northern section of the road south of Heshun! What does that mean? It means that the road from Heshun to the south and Liaoxian to the north, the new th Brigade is conducting an interception battle in the northern section next to Heshun! And what is one thing we all know? With the battle of Yangquan, the Japanese troops in Yangquan were completely wiped out, and the troops that could be mobilized in the three southern counties were also completely wiped out!"

"Although the Japanese have also replenished and stationed troops in Yangquan and the three counties in the south over the past 20 days, they are no match for the previous troops in terms of both quantity and quality!"

"So, if the fighting really breaks out, can the three southern counties gather a team of 500 people? Can Yangquan mobilize a team of more than 500 people? It's really hard to say! After all, the Japanese are also afraid of the tactics of luring the tiger away from the mountain and attacking the east in the west, so they are destined to leave enough troops to strengthen the defense of the city!" Zhao Danian analyzed.

"Also, you also need to pay attention to the distance issue! Although we have hidden all the trucks in the village now, do we dare to drive and march on the road? Definitely not! But from here to the location of the new 10th Brigade, it is at least 180 miles! Even if the brigade headquarters asks us to participate, we can't make it in time!" Zhu Xingyu said.

"Then what's the point of holding a meeting here?" Lu Xiaoran put his hand heavily on the table.

"We must participate. If our guerrillas are absent from such a big battle, we will regret it for the rest of our lives! But since we are participating, we must know how to participate! And we can't let the first and second companies participate. After all, the comrades in these two companies are veterans, and we need to train them! Let the third and fourth companies participate in this battle!" Li Yuexuan said.

"Then... Captain Peregrine, what exactly are you up to? We should have some idea of ​​it, right?" Chen Changsheng asked.

"We are guerrillas!" Li Yuexuan pointed at himself, then at everyone else and said, "We strengthen the local militia and village defense forces, isn't it so that we can go out to fight at any time? Moreover, the combat missions of our guerrillas are not fixed. We fight guerrillas while we are at it! Therefore, I plan to take the special operations team, the special service squad, the third company and the fourth company out for a walk!"

"Let's just wander around Xiyang. What if we find a suitable opportunity to fight? If we do, we can fight. It will also help the battle in the south!"

"Prepare fried noodles for 10 days, and everyone should prepare a backpack and water bottle. Each person should carry 100 rounds of rifle ammunition, 200 rounds for precision marksmen, and 300 rounds for assault rifles. Each person should prepare an extra base amount of spare ammunition for the transport team to carry. We will set off this afternoon, and then go from Tianjiazhai to the east of Xiyang, and look for fighter opportunities in the area south of Xiyang and north of Heshun. Just one or two battles will be enough!" said Li Yuexuan.

"Well... okay, let's do it this way. Take the team out to wander around and look for opportunities to fight, to gain some experience, and let the new recruits from the third and fourth companies truly grow up!" said Zhao Danian.

"I agree, but I have to go out to fight with them, and I have to carry a radio with me to facilitate communication!" Zhu Xingyu also nodded in agreement.
