Jagged Changjin Lake: Kill the enemy and become stronger

"Uh... then what do you want me to change?"

Kong Jie couldn't care less about being angry anymore. Anyway, Li Yunlong was used to having bad things to say when he opened his mouth.

"Brains!"

Li Yunlong stretched out his fingers and tapped his own head, and then said: "We have already entered the city, why are your brains still at the peasant stage? You should open your eyes and look to the future!"

"What do you say, as if you are not a farmer? Go back more than ten years, when you first joined the army, you were poorer than me."

Kong Jie replied angrily.

He could bear Li Yunlong's swearing, but he couldn't bear Li Yunlong's swearing specifically at himself.

"How do you look forward to this future?"

Anger is anger, but Kong Jie still has to humbly ask for advice if he doesn't understand.

"Hey, I don't understand that you have never fought a siege battle before, and you usually spend all your time fighting with little devils in the countryside?"

Li Yunlong stretched out two fingers and pinched it, the meaning was already obvious.

"This guy, after beating Boyang, he gave you a cow. He really thinks of himself as a city man."

Kong Jie curled his lips in disdain, but still lit the cigarette for Li Yunlong.

Although Li Yunlong's words were annoying, he was really right.

Kong Jie has been in the army for these years. At the beginning, he followed the troops to fight guerrillas everywhere. Later, he commanded the troops to fight in the countryside or in the mountains. The battlefields were all in the wilderness. This is really the first time to fight a city siege.

"Do you see what's in this city?"

Li Yunlong smoked the cigarette Kong Jie lit, pointed around and asked.

Kong Jie stood up straight, looked around in a daze, and answered uncertainly, "A house?"

"Think again!"

Li Yunlong shook his head.

"people?"

Kong Jie is still not sure.

"Where is there no one? There are people in the countryside. What I'm asking is what's in the city that isn't in the countryside."

Li Yunlong continued to shake his head.

"This..."

This stumped Kong Jie, if there were too many things in the city but not in the countryside, he didn't know what to say for a while.

Broad Street?A car that can run on the road?Or those various shops and taverns?

What Li Yunlong asked should not be these.

"City wall! Look at the four walls, how high and strong they are!"

Li Yunlong patted his thigh and answered the question for Kong Jie.

"City Wall?"

Kong Jie couldn't understand what Li Yunlong was trying to express.

This city wall is indeed something that is not available in the countryside, but the question is what does this thing have to do with looking forward to the future.

"Look carefully at the city wall, do you find any effect?"

Li Yunlong expressed anxiously, as if the teacher saw a student who was incompetent.

"Function? Isn't it just to resist the attack? If it weren't for blasting the city gate, our independent regiment would really not be able to break into Boyang City."

Kong Jie's deepest understanding of the city wall is that it is very defensive.

"It blocks your eyes and ears."

Li Yunlong hated iron for being weak, which made Kong Jie feel ashamed from the bottom of his heart.

It's just such a literary statement, Kong Jie is even more difficult to understand.

He subconsciously blinked his eyes, and touched his ears with his hands, wondering why the things on his face were blocked.

"You are in this city, how do you know that there is no movement outside? What you see is only what you can see, and there are many things you haven't seen."

Li Yunlong's words were all attacking Kong Jie's soul, and he fell into deep thinking.

Finally, Kong Jie figured it out, and looked at Li Yunlong with an angry look on his face: "If you just say that the little devil has moved, it's over? Why do you go around in such a big circle?"

Chapter 780 I Forgot the Benefits of Hugging

That's the fact. Li Yunlong had to go all the way around something that could be explained clearly in a single sentence, so it's no wonder that Kong Jie got angry.

"You, I'm still ignorant. Let me tell you, you can't just rely on subjective judgments when fighting a war, you have to consider the overall situation. Don't think that we have captured Boyang. There has been no movement until now. The outside world may not know what the chaos is. Even if the little devil doesn’t want Boyang, can the superior not want the independent regiment? The little devil’s reinforcements haven’t arrived, so why didn’t the troops come to support us? Think about it, the two groups are probably in the city right now. As for the diplomatic fire, you don’t have to worry about this kind of thing, worrying is just worrying about it, think about the ending.”

Li Yunlong smiled, stood up and patted Kong Jie on the shoulder, and said inscrutablely.

Not without reason.

Although the little devil can disregard the life and death of [-] soldiers in a regiment in Boyang City, it is absolutely impossible for the Eighth Route Army to watch the [-] soldiers of the Independent Regiment put themselves in danger.

Even if the little devil doesn't send troops to help Fujiro Ono defend the city, the Eighth Route Army will definitely send troops to help the Independence Regiment attack the city.

Now that Boyang City has been conquered, none of the people who helped defend or attack the city have been seen.

There can only be one reason, the person who came to help did it himself.

Although Li Yunlong's explanation was too abstract and hazy, Kong Jie can understand it more or less now.

At least he knew that his worries might be unnecessary.

"Then shall we send someone to investigate?"

Kong Jie made a suggestion.

Anyway, the battle is over. If there is a battle going on outside Boyang City, as Li Yunlong guessed, then the independent regiment can also send people to support it.

"No need, the rest of us now have to take care of the wounded, appease the people, and guard the prisoners. We can't spare any manpower to go out of the city. It would be great if we can hold Boyang City."

Li Yunlong shook his head and refused directly.

"But isn't that inappropriate?"

Kong Jie was still a little entangled. If the superiors sent troops to support them, they would be there to help the independent regiment. If there was any trouble, the independent regiment should step forward regardless of reason or reason. It would be a bit uninteresting to stay in the city.

"Don't worry, where is Boyang? The higher-ups know better than you and me. Since they send troops, they will never be stopped. It's just a matter of time, and they will definitely come."

Li Yunlong is very confident.

When Kong Jie heard this, he couldn't say anything.

After all, he is still a deputy head who has been deprived of command.

"By the way, I was almost careless."

Li Yunlong, who had just squatted down, sprang up suddenly as if he was electrocuted, which startled Kong Jie.

"What's the matter, Old Li?"

Kong Jie asked nervously.

"Focused on calculating these things, I forgot the benefits."

Li Yunlong slapped his head, and it was indeed him, and he did not forget the benefits of fighting.

Kong Jie was speechless, how could he embrace this benefit?You can't search for the common people like the little devil.

"Battalion commanders, come and assemble!"

Li Yunlong took out his pocket watch to check the time, and shouted at the top of his voice.

Soon, the battalion commanders of the six battalions all ran over to assemble, and even Xing Zhiguo, who was checking the situation of the wounded, rushed over.

"There is not much time left. Now I am giving an order, Commander of the Sixth Battalion, you lead people to take care of the wounded and guard the prisoners. Now is a special period, enforce battlefield discipline. If there is any change in the prisoners, they will be executed on the spot."

"Fifth Battalion Commander, you lead people to guard the main gates of the various cities. If you find that there are reinforcements from the little devils arriving, immediately send a signal and organize a battle."

"Fourth Battalion Commander, you take people with Chief of Staff Xing to appease the people in the city, tell them to stay at home and not come out, and requisition some carriages by the way, the more the better."

"Old Kong, I will leave you a company dispatcher, and you will be guarding at the city gate. If there is any emergency, you can handle it according to your own circumstances. If you can't handle it, send someone to pass the news immediately."

"Third Battalion Commander, you lead people to clean up the little devil's barracks and ammunition depots, collect all the guns and ammunition centrally, and count the numbers clearly."

"Second Battalion Commander, take someone to carefully check if there are any little devils in the city, and prepare some food and water."

"Zhang Dabiao, take your people and go with me. Don't you know Boyang City? What kind of headquarters, and the residence of the little devil's officer, check them all for me to see where the little devil is in Boyang City. How many things are hidden."

Li Yunlong's overall command ability is still very good. Except for the wounded who cannot be moved, he arranged all the people in the independent regiment in one go.

"Is this the benefit of hugging?"

Kong Jie stared dumbfounded at the back of Li Yunlong leaving in a hurry, and muttered to himself.

This feels a bit like robbing a house, but the robbing is all little devils, and there seems to be nothing wrong with it.

Those little devils who had been disarmed and squatted in the open space to surrender also felt an obvious change in the atmosphere.

As captives before, they could still talk to each other while squatting on the ground, but now they are even cautious about breathing.

Because the muzzles of the guns were on their heads, those Eighth Route Army soldiers had fierce eyes, as if they would shoot if they sneezed.

Boyang City, which had just calmed down after the battle, became chaotic again, but it was only superficially chaotic, and did not disturb the people in the city at all.

Moreover, Chief of Staff Xing Zhiguo led people from door to door to reassure the people not to be nervous, the Eighth Route Army will never harm innocent people, and informed them that it is safer to hide at home for the time being.

If you need help with anything, you can tell the soldiers patrolling the streets.

With a gentle tone and amiable attitude, Xing Zhiguo's words and deeds also doubled the favor of the people in Boyang City towards the Eighth Route Army.

Many people took the initiative to take out dry food and water to satisfy the hunger and thirst of the soldiers of the independent regiment.

But they were all declined by Xing Zhiguo. The soldiers were thirsty and hungry, and the little devil's granary was there, so they didn't need to eat the rations of the common people.

Besides, even if the little devils have no food, the soldiers can't do the act of eating the people's food.

Since Boyang was occupied by the little devils, the people in the city have been oppressed and humiliated. Every family and person has a history of blood and tears.

Now that the little devils in the city have been defeated, and they have met the Eighth Route Army who loves and cares for the people, the people are so happy that they cannot contain themselves, crying and shouting that the sky has eyes.
