Over the past month, the new regiment has been resting and training.
Lu Yingjun and Duan Peng also came to the new group.
Lu Yingjun was requested by Li Yunlong by name from his boss. Needless to say.
When Xu Yonghai and Wei Dayong found Duan Peng in Duanjiagou, Duan Peng refused to work, saying that he wanted to take care of his mother at home.
However, when Xu Yonghai said that his regiment leader was Li Yunlong, Duan Peng decisively gave up his business of selling grain and joined the Eighth Route Army.
As for Duan Peng's mother, she was placed in the care of a fortress household.
Since the New Regiment won several battles in a row, Li Yunlong has become quite famous among the people in Shanxi.
The Chinese people have admired heroes and knights since ancient times, so some folk literature and storytellers described Li Yunlong as a knight who could fly over the walls and fly over walls with both hands. The price of the Japanese army's bounty on Li Yunlong's head also rose to 100,000 yuan.
Duan Peng, like Wei Dayong, had admired Li Yunlong for a long time and joined the Eighth Route Army without saying a word.
In addition, the 20 soldiers Zhang Dabiao obtained from other regiments were temporarily placed in the first battalion assault company.
Although the number of people was almost complete, Li Yunlong did not rush to form a special force immediately.
He first needs to observe Lu Yingjun for a period of time to see if he is suitable for the position of captain.
Duan Peng also needs an adaptation period for new recruits.
Yangcun, Xinyi Tuan.
Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were sitting cross-legged on the Kang, with soju and peanuts placed on the Kang table.
Zhao Gang said: "Old Li, as soon as the spring began this year, the Japanese army launched the so-called 'Supreme Construction' and directed the offensive at our Eighth Route Army. Moreover, since Tada Shun took over Sugiyama Gen as the commander of the North China Front last year, he implemented
In accordance with the so-called 'cage policy' and wantonly building railways, roads, strongholds and bunkers in order to sweep away our Eighth Route Army base areas, our days in the future may become increasingly difficult."
"Why are you panicking?" Li Yunlong said disdainfully, "The soldiers will come to block the water and cover up the soil. If the Japanese come to sweep us, just fight them back."
"You are not in a hurry." Zhao Gang said angrily, "Last time we attacked the Huting stronghold, the food supply was about to run out. If we don't think of ways to get some food, we will soon be exhausted."
"What do you do as a political commissar?" Li Yunlong asked, "You take care of life and I take care of military affairs. I can get so many weapons and ammunition. You also work hard to get hundreds of thousands of catties of grain for our regiment. This way
As a new group, we won’t have to worry about food for a year and a half.”
"You're damn easy to say." Zhao Gang said, "Now there are blockades everywhere outside the base. Where can I get food? I can't always rely on the villagers for help, right?"
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Look, look, you, a big intellectual, are you still swearing while talking?"
Zhao Gang said seriously: "Don't talk about those useless things. If we continue like this, we will starve to death. Now we have no shortage of ammunition. Otherwise, it will be the same as attacking the Huting stronghold. If we find a way to open two strongholds, we can also launch it."
A small fortune."
Li Yunlong picked up Zhao Gang's notebook on the kang table and started to tear up the paper and roll a cigarette.
Zhao Gang protested: "Don't touch my notebook, you will almost tear it all."
"How can you treat a broken notebook as a treasure?" Li Yunlong hummed, "I'll give you a new one in a while, and it's still Japanese."
The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was intentional. Zhao Gang's eyes lit up leisurely.
Zhao Gang hurriedly asked: "Lao Li, I know you can't stay idle. Do you have a goal? Tell me quickly..."
The corner of Li Yunlong's mouth curled up slightly: "After we devoured the Okazaki Brigade in Qixian County, another cavalry regiment came. It's called the Black Island Cavalry Regiment. Why did this group of cavalry come? Give us horses for the Yanghe Army.
Yes, you said that the Japanese took the initiative to bring fat meat to our mouths. If we don’t eat it, can we live up to the Japanese’s kindness?”
When Zhao Gang heard this, he couldn't help but gasped: "Are you planning to attack the Japanese Cavalry Regiment?"
"That's an established cavalry unit. It's well-equipped and well-trained. It's not that easy to mess with."
"Maybe not only will we not be able to eat it, but we will choke to death on it."
The cavalry is no better than the infantry. The cavalry comes and goes like the wind and has strong maneuverability. When the same number of infantry encounter the cavalry, the cavalry has a hundred ways to kill the infantry, but the infantry has nothing to do.
Li Yunlong said in a disdainful tone: "It's just a Japanese cavalry regiment, why should we care about it?"
Seeing that Li Yunlong didn't seem to be joking, Zhao Gang asked seriously: "Old Li, how are you going to fight this battle?"
Li Yunlong then pretended to be unreasonable and said: "According to the reconnaissance report, there are about 1,300 cavalry in the Black Island Cavalry Regiment. If I take 100 machine guns and 200,000 rounds of ammunition, there should be no problem in fighting a cavalry regiment. Lao Zhao, come here."
Tell me, how should we fight this battle?"
Before this, Li Yunlong had already discussed with Sun Desheng what the cavalry were most afraid of?
What I am most afraid of is a machine gun like the Maxim. With dozens of Maxims placed in front of me, no matter how many cavalry the enemy comes, they will not be able to use them.
Although Li Yunlong does not have dozens of Maxims now, he still has dozens of light machine guns and more than 100 submachine guns. Is this enough firepower?
Zhao Gang looked puzzled: "Old Li, we only have 80 machine guns when we are full, so where do we get 100?"
With a chuckle, Li Yunlong said: "I forgot to tell you, in fact, the last time my brother assisted a total of 100 light machine guns and 300,000 rounds of ammunition, I asked Zhang Dabiao to hide 20 light machine guns and 100,000 rounds of machine gun ammunition.
In Uncle Yang's house at the entrance of the village."
Zhao Gang was speechless and said: "Damn, I was deceived by you. I thought you were a good regiment commander who could fight and had high consciousness. Unfortunately, I also called on all the commanders and soldiers in the regiment to learn from you. How can you be a typical leader with high consciousness?"
It’s all about localism, so I have to give you ten political lessons.”
"Let's talk about the politics class later." Li Yunlong said, "Tell me first, how to fight this battle?"
"Are you testing me or asking for my opinion?" Zhao Gang said, "I said yes, but if I did, it wouldn't be the same without you as the regiment leader. If I become the regiment leader, can you be the political commissar?"
"I'm just a political commissar. Is there anything I can't do?" Li Yunlong said, "I'm not bragging, old Li. If you don't believe me, go and find out. Even the boss often praises me for being a versatile person. Besides, before you came to the New Regiment, I
He did all the work of the regiment leader and political commissar, didn’t he do a good job?”
Zhao Gang nodded and said.
"Well, just assume that our regiment does not have a leader now, and I will temporarily act as the leader to organize this battle."
"First, compared with the Japanese cavalry regiment, our regiment's weakness is its poor mobility, so we can only fight positional warfare, and we must choose a terrain that cannot be outflanked."
"Second, our advantage is our strong firepower, sufficient ammunition, well-chosen terrain, and well-constructed positions. Even if all the Japanese cavalry rushes up, they are just a bunch of living targets."
"Third, we need to lure the Black Island Cavalry Regiment into our ambush position without letting the Japanese Cavalry notice it in advance."
"As long as we can choose the ambush terrain well and lure the Black Island Cavalry Regiment to take the bait, more than half of the problem will be solved."
"The Japanese Cavalry Regiment is not easy to mess with. We need to calculate the cost first. If we don't calculate it well, it may be a loss-making deal."
Li Yunlong clapped his arms and stood up, laughing and scolding: "You bitch Zhao Gang, have you already been thinking about me as the leader of the regiment?"
