After the headquarters and division heads left, Zhou Weihan implemented the strategic development direction issues discussed at the meeting.
More than a hundred soldiers from the Second Battalion of the Fourth Regiment, led by Battalion Commander Yang Xiansheng, entered Pingshun as the vanguard and established contact with local comrades.
According to Zhou Weihan's order, after the Second Battalion arrived in Pingshun, it did not make a big fanfare. Instead, it gathered the county brigade and several district squads together, mixed with the main force, and conducted formal military training.
After several armed forces were mixed together, there were more than 400 people. When the second battalion went to Pingshun, they brought a batch of weapons and equipment. In addition to the weapons and equipment previously given to the county brigade, these more than 400 people had weapons.
The equipment is not bad.
On the other side, the recruitment of new recruits for the three basic regiments was in full swing.
According to the information reported by each regiment, Xu Dali's Second Regiment recruited more than 600 new soldiers in Shexian County in just a few days. Wuqin's Third Regiment benefited from the dense population in southern Hebei and recruited 800 new soldiers in Cheng'an County alone.
The remaining people, on the other hand, were Wang Yigong's Fourth Regiment who had just arrived in Ci County and had not yet established a firm foothold, so there were only a few who responded.
On the Yama Mountain.
"It's easy to say that Xu Dali has good supplies inside the base area. Wu Qin is in southern Hebei, and the detachment can't help him much. He recruited more than 800 people at once. What to eat and drink, and whether the weapons and equipment are enough."
?And what's the situation with Wang Yigong's fourth regiment?" Zhao Gang said worriedly.
"Oh, Lao Zhao, you are really worried as a political commissar. There is a main force regiment in southern Hebei Province. Wu Qin is now the regiment leader. As the regiment leader, if he is not clear about this matter, he, the regiment leader,
It’s all for nothing!”
"I originally ordered a regiment of 1,200 people for them. With the wealth accumulated by his three regiments, it is more than enough to recruit a basic regiment of 1,200 people. Let me tell you, Wu Qin's third regiment originally secretly opened up a group in Daqingshan, Wuyi
He found two secret camps, and there are a lot of weapons and equipment hidden in them. He thought I didn’t know, but Mr. Li had already reported it to me, but I didn’t tell you before!”
"As for the Fourth Regiment, the situation may be a bit special. Ci County used to have a mass base, but it was just that the stubborn army caused misfortune before. Now the people don't dare to support our Eighth Route Army rashly. After all, in their eyes, it doesn't mean anything.
Then the stubborn army comes back again!"
"However, Wang Ying told me some time ago that we will carry out land reform in Ci County, fight against local tyrants, and divide the land. Then the mass base will naturally come back!" Zhou Weihan said nonchalantly.
After lunch at noon, the signal soldiers of the new regiment arrived at Yamawang Mountain.
Zhou Weihan looked at the signal soldier's face that was reddened by the sun, and was very curious as to why Li Yunlong didn't use the radio station, but instead sent someone to inform him. Isn't it a torment on a hot day?
"Chief, our regiment leader asked me to bring you a letter!" The signal soldier took out a letter from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Weihan.
Zhou Weihan and Zhao Gang looked at each other and smiled, and couldn't help but said: "Can Li Yunlong, a big boss, still write letters?"
Zhao Gang said to the guard: "Xiao Li, go get some tomatoes, get a bucket of cold water, and take this comrade to cool down!"
Zhou Weihan opened the envelope and saw the letter: Lao Zhou, I miss you so much. I haven’t seen you for almost half a month. My heart seems to have been scratched by a cat. I invite you, Lao Zhao, and Lao Xing to come over tonight.
When you go to the banquet, you must show your respect. I will greet you with all my heart.
"Hello, don't tell me. This handwriting really looks like what Li Yunlong wrote! It looks like it was gnawed by a dog. It seems that Lao Li has made some progress during this period of recuperation," Zhao Gang said with a smile.
Zhou Weihan raised the letter above his head and faced the sun. It was obvious that several holes were left on the letter due to excessive force.
Then he put the letter on the table, and Zhou Weihan said with some confusion: "I originally planned to go to the New Regiment in the next two days to get back the weapons and equipment that I had agreed on before, but I didn't expect that Li Yunlong actually invited me.
Going to a banquet, where is he going?"
"You, can't you think better of people? After I met you at the brigade headquarters, our first meal was at Lao Li's Xinyi Tuan. I still remember it!" Zhao Gang said because of this incident
I have always had a very good impression of Li Yunlong.
"Forget it, it's useless to say anything now. You'll know when you get there. Wait until the weather gets a little cooler and we'll set off after four o'clock!" Zhou Weihan waved his hand.
Zhao Gang rarely had time this time. After notifying Xing Zhiguo, the three of them and the guards rode towards the new regiment that afternoon.
New Regiment Headquarters, Li Jiazuo, Licheng.
After Li Yunlong was injured, he stayed in bed for more than ten days to recuperate, and only started to get out of bed in the past two days.
"Captain, please slow down. The doctor has told you that you can get out of bed now, but you can't do strenuous exercise!" Guard Huzi said from the side.
At this time, Li Yunlong was wearing a short coat on his upper body, and the long-leg trousers on his lower body were cut to the root of his thigh, and the root of his right leg was still wrapped in a bandage.
From Li Yunlong's walking pace, it is obvious that his movements are still a bit unnatural.
"What do you know? What would I look like if I were limping?" Li Yunlong cursed.
"Commander, isn't the brigade commander like this too!" Huzi muttered in a low voice.
"Fart, how dare you keep your mouth shut? Are you the one who can talk about the brigade commander behind his back?" Li Yunlong got angry and got angry. Even though he usually got into trouble, Li Yunlong respected the brigade commander very much.
Huzi was criticized by Li Yunlong, and then he did not dare to speak.
Li Yunlong sat on a stool in the courtyard, straightened his right leg, and then said: "Don't stand there in a daze, go and tell the cooking team at the regiment headquarters to prepare some good dishes for the evening, and then tell the political commissar to let him
come back earlier!"
"Yes!" Huzi responded and left.
After Huzi left, Li Yunlong removed the bandage on his right leg. It turned out that he was just stabbed by a bayonet. The wound was not big and it did not touch the bone.
However, the wound later became infected. After Li Yunlong was sent to the division hospital, the infected rotten flesh near the wound was directly removed. Therefore, after his right leg healed, a scar of about two centimeters or five or six centimeters was left.
Li Yunlong tilted his head and looked at the wound on his right leg, then gave his thigh a hard hammer, then entered the house and found a pair of long pants to cover the wound.
the other side.
Kong Jie, who was in Tunliu, and Ding Wei, who was in Lucheng, both received letters from Li Yunlong at the same time.
Both of them reacted very strangely to this. They couldn't believe that Li Yunlong, who had always been stingy, would actually take the initiative to invite everyone to dinner.
"Go, why not? Li Yunlong still needs my equipment. I will definitely get it back this time!" Ding Wei raised his eyebrows and said to the political commissar Xiang Ying.
"I'm telling you, I'm sure I can get it back this time. I guess Zhou Weihan will also go. Li Yunlong still has one share left. If Zhou Weihan can get it back, then our 28th Regiment will also have a share!"
