Show the sword, start from the guerrillas

Chapter 89, New Mission
Each recruit was given five training bombs, and the shells that were blown in half could be recycled, so the guerrillas completed their training quickly.

Originally, Li Yuexuan thought that this period of rest and training would continue forever. As a result, in the early morning of October 10, the guerrillas received a task given by the Third Division - to escort the transport team westward and deliver a batch of 30 grenades to the 358th Brigade.

6000 grenades, this number is already quite considerable, the Third Division specially sent a transport team. The task of the guerrillas is to cooperate with the 2nd Company of the Third Division to protect the transport team and supplies along the way.

According to what Zhao Danian said, the 358th Brigade came from Yanbei, and its mission was to contain the Japanese and fight this anti-mopping-up operation. Zhao Danian didn't know anything else.

Li Yuexuan knew more, because the 120th Division eventually developed in Jizhong Plain, so this was one of the teams that went to Jizhong Plain. It seemed that Jizhong Plain also fought several beautiful battles, such as the Songzhuang battle that the Japanese followed and ran away, which took place in Jizhong Plain.

Don't ask how Li Yuexuan knew so much about it. The answer is that in the book he read, Lao Wai, these battles all have plots. Of course, in Lao Wai's book, the equipment of the Eighth Route Army was already at the level of crushing the Japanese, which was a perfect story. According to the saying of "not leaving a single one behind", if nothing can be changed, just follow the historical process and write it as a wonderful story.

Thinking of this, Li Yuexuan hurriedly looked through the book on his mobile phone and actually found the content about the 358th Brigade... Damn, there really is going to be a battle this time!

Knowing what was going on, Li Yuexuan was no longer in a hurry. He just waited for Zhao Danian to arrange everything, and then set off with the team.

After the hand grenade training, the guerrillas already looked like regular troops. At least, everyone wore khaki uniforms of the Eighth Route Army, gray hats, and carried a full set of Japanese weapons. Because they had to face combat at any time, Zhao Danian gave each recruit 4 hand grenades to hang on their backs, 20 bullets in the ammunition box, and 5 bullets in the gun.

However, the new recruits had their bullets loaded, only the veterans had their bullets loaded.

At the front were the guerrilla vanguards. They and a platoon from the 3nd Company of the 2rd Division were walking in the front and were the vanguard of the team.

The main force of the guerrillas followed the vanguard as the main force to meet the enemy, and behind them was the transport team they protected. As for the remaining two platoons of the 2nd Company, one platoon helped the transport team to carry things, and the other platoon walked at the back. Looking at the equipment of the 2nd Company and then looking at the equipment of the guerrillas, anyone would regard the guerrillas as the main force.

From the village where the guerrillas were located, they walked along the valley to the northwest. There were several villages along the way, but the team did not stop. Li Yuexuan was somewhat unsure about the journey, so he approached Zhao Danian and asked in a low voice: "Captain, don't we have a map of Shanxi?"

"Maps? Yes, we have seized a lot of maps! Why do you suddenly think of asking this?" Zhao Danian ignored Li Yuexuan's question, because Li Yuexuan had been busy with training or helping with production in the workshop. This was the first time he asked about maps.

"Then please show me one!" Li Yuexuan said without hesitation.

"I'll give you a copy, but it's all in Japanese. Apart from a few familiar characters, I can't understand what's written on the rest. By the way, military doctor, do you know Japanese?" Zhao Danian asked.

"I understand!" Li Yuexuan said as a matter of course: "If you don't know Japanese, how can you pretend to be a Japanese in Nanjing? If you don't pretend to be a Japanese, how can you kill the Japanese? But the Japanese later learned to be smart."

"You told me you could speak Japanese earlier, I would have shown you a long time ago!" Zhao Danian quickly searched the canvas bag he carried with him. "Didn't you ask me?" Li Yuexuan asked back, and then thanked the mysteriously disappeared mobile phone in his mind. Well, he did know a little Japanese before, but he learned from some female teachers, such as Aoi's, Hatano's... But when he was looking through some Japanese materials in his mobile phone, he found that he could understand it and seemed to be able to speak it.

Isn’t it amazing? This is the benefit of being a time traveler, a true protagonist!

"Here you go!" Zhao Danian handed a map to Li Yuexuan.

Li Yuexuan was not polite and started looking for his position with the map. First he found the Hutuo River, then the Xiajia River, then the roadblock, then the third division station, the guerrilla station, and finally, he found their location and where they were going. At the same time, the range of the virtual map on his auxiliary panel was gradually expanding, taking in the entire map.

However, only where Li Yuexuan passed by would the map become a three-dimensional map, and only then would small green dots appear to mark their locations.

With the map, Li Yuexuan would not get lost, and he could travel with his head held high. This time, the Third Division not only sent grenades to the 358th Brigade, but also some grenades to the Second Division.

Li Yuexuan was too lazy to use the auxiliary panel to calculate the exact number of grenades delivered. In short, there were a total of 25 carts in the team, each loaded with boxes of grenades.

"Don't look at it. There are a total of 1 grenades, 358 of which are given to the 6000th Brigade, and the rest are given to the 2nd Division! This time, we helped the 3rd Division to repel the attacks of three battalions. The 2rd Division is almost under no pressure, so naturally we have to focus on the surrounding military divisions first. The nd Division is adjacent to Wutai County, so the pressure is very high, and it is also close to us, so we will give them first!" said the old squad leader.

"Old squad leader, I understand what you said, but aren't you in charge of the military workshop? Why are you personally leading the team to deliver supplies?" Li Yuexuan looked at the old squad leader and asked in confusion.

"Didn't I just say that Division 2 is close to the Japanese, so we plan to take those newly-obtained mines and go to the site to see if they can be tested in actual combat!" said the old squad leader.

"That's great! By the way, old squad leader, if there is a chance, we will set up an ambush area for the Japanese with directional blasting, and let you see how to kill the Japanese!" Li Yuexuan said.

"Well, it's up to you!" The old squad leader said, and returned to the transport team.

"More than 700 Japanese troops from the Ganye Battalion are invading Gaohongkou from Wutai... When we get to Gaohongkou, we have to remind the 2th Battalion of the 5nd Division to avoid losses." As he walked, thinking about the information he had already obtained, Li Yuexuan made a decision secretly. Then, according to the development of the situation, he would find a place to create a death zone for the Japanese.

"Okay, comrades, the vanguard will go up the mountain first, and the rest of you will help the transport team carry the weapons to the top of the mountain. After we pass this hill, the road ahead will be easier..."
