"What? Brother Duanwu ran to the south? Is he crazy? Or does he have enough troops to crush the Japanese?"
At the same time, HD, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, Kong Jie, and the 771st and 772th regiments who arrived later had just captured HD, and then received news from the brigade headquarters.
At that time, the brigade headquarters received the news but did not send it to the regiment level because the HD battle had entered a fierce stage at that time.
Brigadier Chen was afraid that if the news reached the regiment level, it would affect the morale of the troops, so he waited until after the battle.
After Li Yunlong received the news, he cursed with Ding Wei and Kong Jie.
Ding Wei said: "This incident cannot all be blamed on the Duanwu brothers. It was Li Zhongren who gave the random order to have the 55th Army and the 56th Army forcefully break through the Japanese defense lines and go to Dongping County to meet the Duanwu Brothers.
What do you think he will do if he doesn't go south? Are we going to watch the 55th Army and the 56th Army being wiped out before our eyes?"
Li Yunlong cursed again: "This Li Zhongren has his brain kicked by a donkey."
Kong Jie laughed at this moment and said: "I don't think Li Zhongren's head was kicked by a donkey, it was the chairman's head that was kicked by a donkey. At this time, we still want to eliminate dissidents. These fifty-five
The 56th Army and the 56th Army are both subordinates of Han Fuju. Han Fuju is dead. If he doesn't weaken the 55th Army and the 56th Army at this time, then when?"
Ding Weidao: "Lao Kong is right, this battle is probably a conspiracy."
Li Yunlong said angrily: "Then what should we do? If the Fifty-fifth Army and the Fifty-sixth Army cross the line of fire and reach Dongping County, they will die. If the Dragon Boat Festival brothers go south and bump into the little devil's fifth division, they will die too.
.And have you seen? In a city as big as HD, how many little devils are there? And if we fight like this, the main force of the little devils won’t come back, so what are they doing? They must be chasing the Dragon Boat Festival brothers. I
Look, we have to hurry up, chase that little devil, and beat him back."
Kong Jie said: "Old Li, that's what you said, but in this battle, our losses are not small. If we want to continue the pursuit, we have to go with all our belongings."
After hearing this, Li Yunlong turned his back on the spot: "Lao Kong, you are just a softie. Apart from HD, the Japs still have some troops, where are the main Japs troops around here? Let's not say that the Dragon Boat Festival brothers have any influence on us.
How important. Grandma, what time is it now? That’s the time to pick up equipment for free. Then don’t we just let us get the HD Japs arsenal? I remember that you, Lao Kong, kept shouting at that time: That, that mortar
Keep the cannons for me. Machine guns, machine guns, we want twenty machine guns. I want at least thirty boxes of the little devil’s cantaloupe grenades. There are so many Type 38 rifles, why don’t you keep them to use as fire sticks? Here they are.
I’ll add two hundred points, are these all your words?”
"···········"
Kong Jie was speechless, and indeed he had nothing to say. Although the HD battle was hard, the weapons and equipment of each regiment had been changed. And especially the Japs' mortars, which he had never dared to think about before,
Which regiment doesn’t have two gates nowadays?
There is also the little Japanese's crooked light machine gun, which is said to be difficult to use, but every regiment is rushing to get it.
Therefore, in this battle, although the 386 Brigade suffered a lot of casualties, its weapons and equipment were definitely far behind what they had before.
"Report to the regiment, there is a call from the brigade headquarters, and the division headquarters orders the 386th Brigade to continue to move forward."
At this moment, a signal soldier came to report.
Li Yunlong burst out laughing: "Hahaha, what do you think? This old leader came with us. The main force of the little devil has gone after the Dragon Boat Festival brothers. We can take advantage of the little devil's empty strength to attack
Beat the fuck up."
However, at this moment, Ding Wei asked: "Will the order only be given to our 386th Brigade?"
The communications soldier thought for a moment and said, "That's not clear."
Li Yunlong said in surprise: "Old Ding, what do you mean by this?"
Ding Weidao: "Our 129th Division is too far away from the base area, and we still have the responsibility to protect the head of the headquarters. And the previous plan was to enter Hebei and severely damage the Japanese army, so that the Japanese army on the western front of the Dragon Boat Festival brothers could not rush to reinforce.
But now it seems that the Japs are determined, so it will be impossible for our division to go out in full force and fight all the way to Shandong."
Li Yunlong frowned, because he felt that what Ding Wei said was right. But then he said: "What are you afraid of? Even if it is me, I dare to poke the kid's ass. Let's go to Liaocheng. Grandma
There is only an empty city left, why don’t we take it? The new regiment will follow me. When the time comes, we will seize the supplies. We, the new regiment, will pick them first.”
"good!"
The soldiers of the new regiment cheered and followed Li Yunlong away.
At this time, Li Yunlong was really good. Not only did he get on the little devil's off-road vehicle, but he also seized five large trucks loaded with weapons and ammunition.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie laughed, and immediately followed them. Because this was the time to grab supplies, they were so slow that they couldn't even drink the soup.
The 771st Regiment and the 772nd Regiment were jealous with envy. But they had no choice but to stay and protect the brigade headquarters. Moreover, their equipment, with the brigade commander watching over them, was indispensable.
But most of them are leftovers picked by others.
Brigadier Chen was also cursing at the brigade headquarters. Li Yunlong told him that a large amount of weapons and ammunition had been seized and sent to the brigade headquarters. What did he get? They were all made in Hanyang, old-fashioned barrels. And the Japanese's Type 38
The number of rifles is less than one-tenth, and there are quite a few broken ones, so it’s just a matter of making up the numbers.
He sent a telegram to scold Li Yunlong, but Li Yunlong didn't care at all, and made a lot of excuses to wait for Brigadier Chen. He also drew a big cake for Brigadier Chen, saying that he would wait for him to arrive in Liaocheng and organize it in the brigade.
Brigadier Chen could only choose to believe it, otherwise what could he do?
He could only order the troops to replace the weapons and equipment that could be used, and send people to transport those that could not be used back to the headquarters for the headquarters' arsenal and logistics to receive them.
Because the Eighth Route Army was short of weapons, even old-fashioned barrels with smooth rifling might not be available to everyone. What's more, there were broken Type 38 rifles among these weapons.
This thing is a treasure in the Eighth Route Army. Generally, the 38-type rifles that have been captured by the Japs can only be used by veterans with good marksmanship. But it is probably impossible for recruits to touch it.
So how could Brigadier Chen throw away so many weapons and ammunition?
So Brigadier Chen, who was able to use it, put it on the 771st and 772nd regiments first. Who has powder but doesn't put it on his face?
As for the division leader getting angry, let him get angry. Anyway, he will arm his 386th Brigade first!
