After all, the current Independent Regiment is different from the original Independent Regiment, ever since Li Yunlong cooperated with the People's Army several times.

The Independent Group has undergone earth-shaking changes. From the beginning when Li Yunlong took over, there were less than 2,000 people in the Independent Group.

With the development now, the entire independent regiment has a strength of more than 4,000, nearly 5,000 men. The biggest change has to be in the weapons and equipment.

In the independent regiment at the beginning, there were not even a few Type 92 heavy machine guns in the entire regiment. Many soldiers were using old-fashioned Hanyang-made guns.

And even if it was made in Hanyang, not every soldier had it. In addition, the independent regiment bullets at that time were also very scarce.

On average, each soldier only has a few bullets, not to mention the Type 92 infantry cannon and the 60-caliber mortar.

But after the independent regiment cooperated with the People's Army several times, they now have everything they want, such as Type 92 infantry cannons and 60-caliber mortars.

At present, the total number of these artillery pieces in the entire independent regiment is ten, as well as almost eight Type 92 heavy machine guns and nearly twenty crooked light machine guns.

At the same time, nearly half of the more than 4,000 people in the independent regiment were equipped with the Little Devil's 38 Gai. This was after the brigade commander of the 386th Brigade had taken away most of the weapons.

Otherwise, the current equipment of the independent regiment can be said to be the most luxurious in the entire Eighth Route Army, but even if the commander of the 386th Brigade took away the weapons and equipment of the large unit.

But according to the current configuration of the independent regiment, it can be considered a high-ranking independent regiment within the entire Eighth Route Army, with such a configuration of weapons and personnel.

If Chu Yunfei's 358th regiment were suddenly attacked, it would be really difficult for Chu Yunfei to stop him, mainly because the two sides were too close.

Although his 358th regiment is a reinforced regiment, it is stronger than Li Yunlong's independent regiment in terms of weapons and numbers.

But the problem is that the defense areas of both sides are almost adjacent to each other. If Li Yunlong suddenly sends troops, he can capture a reinforced battalion of the 358th Regiment in the shortest possible time.

Without a reinforced battalion, it would be a bit difficult for Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment to compete with Li Yunlong's independent regiment.

It is no exaggeration to say that Li Yunlong is now the real rich man. Among the entire Shanxi North Iron Triangle, Li Yunlong has the best independent group configuration.

All of this must be attributed to the People's Army, and it is precisely because of this that Li Yunlong has always been grateful to Su Yu.

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

Of course, these are just the troops below. After the incident in southern Anhui broke out, the relationship between the Eighth Route Army in northwestern Shanxi and the Shanxi-Sui Army became somewhat explosive.

Not only Li Yunlong's independent regiment, but also other Eighth Route Army units also sent additional troops to the border with the Shanxi-Sui Army defense zone.

Defending against the Jinsui Army is like guarding against thieves. Similarly, the Jinsui Army is not to be outdone. They also send some more soldiers to the edge of the defense zone.

In this way, the entire North China region became very interesting. The 200,000-strong army of the People's Army faced off against the more than 200,000-strong army of the Japs.

The two sides were at war with each other, as if a fight was about to begin at the next moment. On the other hand, the Eighth Route Army and the Jinsui Army were not idle either, and they also began to confront each other.

When the news reached Neji Okamura's ears, he couldn't be happier.

"Yo Xi! Let's fight. Now we only need to concentrate on dealing with the People's Army. After what happened in southern Anhui, the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army are no longer on the same front."

Seeing this, Tanichuan Kouta also echoed.

"That's right, I really don't know how these people thought that now most of the entire land of China has fallen into our hands."

"At this time, they are still fighting among themselves. Sure enough, God is favoring us. General, now we only need to deal with the People's Army, and then the entire North China battlefield will be our world."

Speaking of the People's Army, Okamura Neji's happy mood just now disappeared again. From the current point of view, the People's Army is their biggest threat in North China.

The emergence of the People's Army made Okamura Neiji feel powerless for the first time when dealing with the Eighth Route Army in the past.

Although there were many times when their troops suffered heavy losses from the Eighth Route Army, without exception, the Eighth Route Army did so through some unseemly means.

Such as guerrilla warfare, encirclement and reinforcements, etc. Such tactics are just the kind that would make Neji Okamura punch cotton.

But the People's Army is different. The battle with the People's Army tests the hard power of both sides, just like a battle between two real men.

There was no so-called tactics. Both sides just used iron fists to defeat each other one by one. However, with this kind of attack, their own troops could not defeat the People's Army.

This made Okamura Neji feel so powerless for the first time. It was completely different from the feeling of suffering a loss at the hands of the Eighth Route Army.
