"You must have heard, Old Zhao, about Su Yu from the People's Army going to Daxia Bend, right?"

"Yes, what's wrong? Is this call related to the People's Army?"

When Zhao Gang heard Li Yunlong's words, he answered without hesitation.

It is worth mentioning that, perhaps because of Su Yu's arrival, the plot in this time and space is much faster than in the original work.

For example, in the original work, Zhao Gang came to serve as the political commissar of the Independent Regiment a few months later. It can be said that it was because of Su Yu's appearance.

As a result, the entire plot sped up a bit, and Su Yu also noticed this.

At first he would feel a little unsure, but later on he would feel no difference.

As long as you have enough power, it doesn't matter whether the plot advances for a few months or a few years.

All fear comes from lack of firepower. Su Yu's psychological changes during this period well explain this truth.

When Li Yunlong saw Zhao Gang with a confused look on his face, he stopped pretending.

"Yes, it's about the People's Army. Su Yu went to Daxiawan a few days ago to discuss cooperation with the chief."

"The chief also agreed to this. The content of the cooperation is basically that the Eighth Route Army and the People's Army will send troops together to launch a large-scale siege against the little devils in the entire northwestern Shanxi."

"We strive to wipe out all the Japs in the entire northwest of Shanxi in one go. This operation takes into account our Eighth Route Army's lack of experience in critical battles."

"There are no heavy weapons to attack the city, so the People's Army will be the main force, and our Eighth Route Army will be the supplement. When the time comes, we will attack the little devils."

"Those important strongholds of the Japs, such as Fu'an, Shuiquan, Luyang, etc., were all attacked by the People's Army."

"Our Eighth Route Army only needs to detour to the rear of the Japs when the People's Army attacks, cut off their retreat route, and cooperate with the People's Army to eat up the entire Japs in northwestern Shanxi."

"We cannot let the old boy Yoshio Shinozuka and the high-level brats retreat to Neji Okamura."

"Hiss~this..."

When Zhao Gang heard this, he also took a breath. When he heard that Su Yu was going to Daxia Bend, he guessed that the People's Army must be doing something big there.

But I didn't expect that this operation would be so big. The People's Army's appetite is not small at all. From its establishment to now, the total time has only been half a year.

............

But just like that, the People's Army, which had been established for half a year, wanted to eat up all the little Japanese in northwestern Shanxi at one go. You must know that their Eighth Route Army and the First Army of Shinozuka Yoshio had been fighting for who knows how many years.

Most of them ended up with their side suffering a loss. Originally, according to Zhao Gang, he wanted to completely eliminate the little Japs in the entire northwest of Shanxi.

It will take almost several years, but now? Someone actually said that in the near future, this major problem will be solved in one fell swoop.

This kept Zhao Gang in a state of confusion. It felt too sci-fi. Could it be that the little devils in northwest Shanxi were going to disappear like this?

Seeing Zhao Gang like this, Li Yunlong also sighed with deep understanding.

"I expected you to behave like this. When I heard the news from the chief, my reaction was similar to yours. I was also very surprised."

"But this time the chief called specifically not just to tell us the news, but also to give our independent group a task."

"Task?"

"Yes, the chief wants us to prepare well during this period. In almost ten days, our independent regiment will need to launch an attack on Ping'an County."

When he heard that his independent group was going to attack Ping'an County, Zhao Gang quickly shook his head and said that it was indeed a bit difficult.

"You want our independent regiment to attack Ping'an County? How is this possible? We, as an independent regiment, simply can't defeat it."

"Let alone reinforcements, we can't defeat Ping'an County alone because our independent regiment has no experience in attacking tough battles."

"The most important thing is that our independent regiment does not have the heavy weapons to attack the city. At the same time, we do not know the specific situation of the defenders in Ping'an County."

"As well as their firepower configuration and combat deployment, etc., I feel it is too risky to attack Ping'an County under such circumstances."

Regarding Zhao Gang's concerns, Li Yunlong just smiled and said.

"Don't worry, Old Zhao. Regarding the things you are worried about, the chief has taken into consideration. The first is the issue of reinforcements. The chief said we don't need to worry about the reinforcements from the little Japs."

"Because the People's Army will send troops to block these reinforcements, in fact, the real purpose of our attack on Ping'an County is to encircle the area and collect reinforcements. The People's Army wants to take advantage of this opportunity."

"Eating the reinforcements sent by the Japs will make it much easier for the People's Army to launch a general attack on the Japs' important strongholds."
