Chapter 113 The second-in-command of the 358 group (please subscribe to support)
Chen Ziyun commanded the artillery battalion troops to achieve significant results in the night attack and counterattack, which made Chu Yunfei directly break the routine and completely hand over the command to Chen Ziyun.
Five infantry battalions and one artillery battalion are all under the command of Chen Ziyun. At this time, can Chen Ziyun be equivalent to the position of regimental commander on the front line?
Of course, in order to take care of Qian Bojun's mood, Chu Yunfei deliberately withdrew his first battalion to rest and recuperate as a reserve force.
This will avoid the situation where Chen Ziyun directs Qian Bojun to fight, and it will save him some face.
From Chu Yunfei's appointment, everyone knew that in the 358th Regiment, Chen Ziyun had quietly become second only to Chu Yunfei.
After all, even Chu Yunfei's most trusted chief of staff, Fang Ligong, did not receive such treatment.
The headquarters of the 358th Regiment began to pass on orders, and all departments immediately mobilized.
More than 1,000 troops from the 5th and 6th Battalions quickly advanced towards the front. They came to the front starting position of the Yue puppet army to defend themselves.
After the two battalions arrived, Chen Ziyun immediately met with the two battalion commanders.
Neither the Fifth Battalion nor the Sixth Battalion could follow the newly expanded troops, and none of the officers in the battalion or even the battalion were directly promoted by Chu Yunfei himself.
They wrongly obeyed Chu Yunfei's orders completely, so they wrongly treated Chen Ziyun very respectfully.
The two battalion commanders received the combat mission, and they began to strengthen the position, making it the first-line position of the 358th Regiment.
The guard company and cavalry company of the artillery battalion east of the artillery battalion have not withdrawn, nor can they stay in the position and serve as a reserve force.
Of course, the light machine guns and submachine guns drawn from each battalion began to return to the outside of the establishment.
"Contact the regiment headquarters and ask them to find a way to get a batch of 81MM caliber mortar shells."
"In addition, if the guard company and cavalry company also suffered casualties in that battle, let Chu Yu and Zhang Wu directly select puppet prisoners to supplement them."
"He will say hello to the regiment headquarters. The two companies must quickly restore their formation and take the leading role in the battle from the east."
"Move the artillery battalion headquarters to the front-line position and establish contact with various departments, especially the artillery company and artillery observation team."
After meeting and discussing with the two battalion commanders, Chen Ziyun called in the messenger, and he began to convey the combat orders.
Chen Ziyun came there and had been in contact with Chu Yunfei for a while, and he had misunderstood Chu Yunfei for a long time.
He knew clearly that Chu Yunfei had some ideas when he advanced the deployment of the two battalions.
If Chu Yunfei wanted to fight a defensive battle, then he could arrange for Chen Ziyun to withdraw his troops and defend the high ground behind him with all his strength.
The high ground has a perfect terrain advantage, so if you hold on there, you can completely block the Japs' attack.
But if he is now deploying troops to advance, it is obvious that he is preparing for subsequent attacks.
And judging from the current situation, the 358th Group definitely has the capital to attack!
What Chen Ziyun wants to do now is not only to arrange everything well, but also to get the attack order to the east so that they can take action quickly and obtain the results.
"Ding dong, the system releases a task!"
"Kill the Major General Katayama Shotarō, commander of the Fourth Independent Mixed Brigade of the Lunar Army!"
As early as seven o'clock, Chen Ziyun finally walked on the chair to take a breath.
He had just walked east when the sound of system machinery sounded.
After hearing the system task, Chen Ziyun frowned slightly, with a solemn expression on his face.
The mission given by the system was of a certain degree of difficulty. It was not an easy task to kill a major general brigade leader.
Even if the independent mixed fourth brigade was hit, it suffered heavy casualties.
Do they still have stronger heavy weapons? Under such circumstances, it would be very difficult to kill Katayama Shoutaro.
Because he was wrong about the system's task, Chen Ziyun hesitated for a while and chose to accept it.
After all, just complete the tasks and you can get different rewards.
The artillery position map in the Yangcun area provided by the sub-system is very important and whether it played a decisive role in that battle.
With such a reward, would it be possible to kill more little Japs? That was something Chen Ziyun was very willing to do.
And if it is possible to kill a major general brigade commander of the Lunar Army, then the morale of the Lunar Army will also be severely damaged.
Chen Ziyun chose to accept the task, so naturally he couldn't sit idle.
After having a quick bite to eat, he hurried to the security company to check on the situation.
The matter of killing Shotaro Katayama must have been left to the security company.
At this time, there was no fighting on the battlefield, and the 358th Regiment and the puppet troops were in a staggered confrontation.
At the headquarters of the Seventh Army of the Shanxi-Sui Army, the commander-in-chief Zhao Yinfu stood in front of the map with a face full of surprise.
Several staff officers took the document and checked it over and over to see if they were sure what the document contained.
Then they performed simulations on the map, and even the several deductions turned out to be beyond their imagination.
"The puppet army has more than 10,000 troops, reinforced with many heavy machine guns and mortars. They also have an absolute advantage in the number of artillery."
"Judging from their several deductions, what happened to Bucheng? Even if the 358th Regiment can hold its position, it will definitely suffer heavy casualties."
"According to their reports, it can be seen that the casualties of the puppet troops were around 5,000 people, and they carried out effective counterattacks and achieved great results."
"Burn Seat, Commander Chu Yunfei, won't falsely report the results of the battle, right? After all, it is almost impossible for him to appear like this."
The staff members had puzzled expressions on their faces. They looked at Zhao Yinfu and said.
Zhao Yinfu frowned, his face showing a thoughtful expression.
Yan Laoxi arranged Chu Yunfei's regiment to serve under his command, which was undoubtedly a hot potato for Zhao Yinfu.
Especially now that they have developed to a certain extent, Zhao Yinfu can hardly control his troops.
But thinking of Chu Yunfei's past, he shook his head and rejected the staff officer's statement.
I beg others, they may falsely report their military exploits, but Chu Yunfei is very arrogant, and he doesn't bother to do such a thing.
"Chu Yunfei is from a wealthy family and is not a disciple of the emperor. He will not falsely report his military exploits."
"Looking at it now, the 358th Regiment has indeed achieved significant results. Didn't you expect that one of their regiments could block the Wanyue Puppet Army attack!"
"Even if they have 6,000 troops, whether they can do that is enough to prove the strength of the regiment."
"Whether the Jin-Sui Army has such a force, whether Yan Chief Bu Shen has been appointed by the elders of the Three Jin Dynasties, and whether he has been appointed to accompany the capital, have all been explained."
"Is Chen Ziyun really talking about it? If he is not one of our own, we don't have to worry about his future!"
"Ma Zaihe reported the situation of the 358th Regiment to the Chief Department and asked Chief Yan to make detailed instructions and arrangements."
"In addition, in the name of the General Headquarters, Chen Ziyun, commander of the artillery battalion and infantry artillery commander attached to the 358th Regiment, is commended."
After Zhao Yinfu thought for a moment, he immediately gave instructions.
"No, the main seat." The staff officer on the side immediately agreed to Donglai.
The message from the Seventh Army Headquarters was quickly sent to Yan Laoxi.
When Yan Laoxi confirmed the military exploits obtained by the 358th Regiment, Yan Laoxi could not hide his excitement.
After all, after so many years of fighting, the Jinsui Army often had an absolute advantage, but it was defeated again and again.
As the perfect controller of Jin Province, it is inevitable that Yan Laoxi will not be able to give an explanation to the people of Jin Province.
He also knew that the popular support he had accumulated was also being lost bit by bit.
After all, the little devils are burning, killing and looting in Jin Province. Now whoever can defeat the devils and win the war will be supported by the people.
After the Jinsui Army retreated to the west of Shanxi, they kept flirting with the Japs. Yan Laoxi wondered if he wanted to maintain his own strength.
After all, he also knew that without that kind of strength, his theater commander would be nothing.
For example, because the famous rebel general had no military power, even after he became the commander-in-chief, even his old subordinates in the Northwest Army did not obey his orders.
"Okay, okay, how about Bu Sheng? Chu Yunfei is so good that even Chen Ziyun is from Jin Province."
"Whether the 358th Regiment belongs to the combat order of his Jinsui Army, starting from tomorrow, let's see who dares to say that his Jinsui Army will not fight against the Japs!"
"Contact the Seventh Army Headquarters and promote Chen Ziyun to the rank of lieutenant colonel. He will also serve as the lieutenant colonel of the 358th Regiment, artillery battalion commander, and infantry artillery commander!"
"Chen Ziyun is in charge of the lieutenant colonel's regiment, and the major's regiment is attached with powers. The former lieutenant colonel's regiment attached to Liang Guoping was transferred to the deputy battalion commander of the artillery battalion to assist Chen Ziyun in commanding!"
"In addition, in his own name, the commander of the 358th Regiment, Chu Yunfei, will be awarded fifteen gold bars, and the infantry artillery commander Chen Ziyun will be awarded ten gold bars."
As early as eight o'clock, Yan Laoxi went directly to the east to give the order.
Did he promote Chen Ziyun's military rank, and let Chen Ziyun alone control the powers of a lieutenant colonel and a major at the same time?
The so-called regimental affiliation, in fact, depends on the face of the regiment leader. Chen Ziyun has won Chu Yunfei's trust, and the power of his regimental affiliation will naturally expand infinitely.
What's more, after serving as the artillery battalion commander and infantry and artillery commander at the same time, Chen Ziyun definitely miscalculated to be the second-in-command of the 358th Regiment!
Of course, Yan Laoxi was stingy when it came to the Eighth Route Army and other troops, and he was very generous when compared to the Shanxi-Sui Army troops.
Especially now he needs to try his best to win over Chu Yunfei and Chen Ziyun, so that time he gave the gold bars in his own name.
A total of twenty-five gold bars. Although they are just small yellow croakers, each one weighs one or two.
I want to know whether gold bars can be regarded as the perfect hard currency at this time. Chen Ziyun's ten gold bars are only one pound of small yellow croakers, but they can buy a lot of things.
