Li Shuangqin and more than 100 defeated Sichuan troops settled in Panshi Valley. Xu Shijiu gave the 4th brigade number, and Li Shuangqin was naturally the unscrupulous brigade leader.

With more than 100 veterans from the 4th Brigade who have experienced many battles, Xu Shijiu considered making some noise.

Not only to make noise to announce the existence of the national army, but also to obtain material supplies, to put it bluntly, supporting two hundred people is also a huge burden. Although Qinglongzhai still has some food, he also took out part of it for Panshigu, but this little grain cannot last long, so Xu Shijiu still has to find a way to solve it himself.

That night, Xu Shijiu was studying the map of Longkou County with an oil lamp, thinking about how to fight this first battle. Gao Shenxing suddenly walked in with his modified rifle in his arms and sat opposite Xu Shijiu.

Xu Shijiu didn't raise his head and asked, "Don't you say you want to go hunting with Li Mu?"

Gao Shenxing and Li Mu often go out to hunt at night, first to get some wild game to improve a meal, and secondly, they can also take the opportunity to train Li Mu. It was under Gao Shenxing's almost cruel training that Li Mu gradually became more powerful. Although he is not as good as Gao Shenxing now, he is not much worse.

"Old Xu, I don't think about it anymore." Gao Shenxing was startled Xu Shijiu and jumped.

"What did you say?" Xu Shijiu looked up suddenly and his eyes looked at Gao Shenxing became cold in an instant.

Then Xu Shijiu's eyes eased and he said sadly: "Do you want to join the Communist Party?"

Gao Shenxing realized that he had said something wrong and quickly explained: "I'm not leaving. I mean, I don't want to be the captain of the 3rd brigade. I'd better let Monk Hua be the captain of this brigade. He is more suitable than me. As for me, I want to select a group of people from each brigade to train them to conduct special operations."

"Why do you suddenly remember this?" Xu Shijiu breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he didn't leave.

Gao Shenxing said: "I think this has been a long time, but the time was not ripe before, because on the front battlefield, the role of special forces is not much stronger than that of combat troops, and the training is much more difficult and costly, so it is not suitable. But now we have penetrated deep behind enemy lines, and special forces have a place to use it."

"I'm afraid that a small army of several people is difficult to use, right?" Although Xu Shijiu has also dabbled in Western military works, he knows little about modern special operations, and it is even more impossible to know that the role of special forces is even strategically level. Sometimes a small attack by a special forces is enough to change the victory balance of a war.

"Maybe useful, maybe it's useless, I just want to try it anyway." Although Gao Shenxing had systematically learned special tactics with Jiang Baili, his strategic role in special operations was also not very clear. Gao Shenxing only vaguely felt that forming special forces in the battlefield behind enemy lines should be able to achieve great success.

"You have really thought about it?" Xu Shijiu asked.

"Well, I've thought about it." Gao Shenxing nodded.

"Okay, you can choose the people yourself. You can just bring up any equipment you want. Only those who have them now will give them immediately. If you don't have them, I will also find a way to do it immediately. I will give you three months of training time. Is it enough?" Seeing that Gao Shenxing had already made a decision, Xu Shijiu didn't say much nonsense. No matter what, it is always good that the 19th Detachment can have a few more powerful soldiers like Li Mu.

Gao Shenxing said: "You don't have to worry about equipment, Lao Xu, you are the only one who can think of this little thing. I will find a way to do it myself.

Xu Shijiu said: "Then it's the number, what number do you want?" It's a combat unit, so naturally it must have a number. Xu Shijiu said: "How is the 5th Team?"

Gao Shenxing said: "The team of only a few people? If it is not the first place,"

"I'm a little angry. Now there are only a few people, which does not mean that there are only a few people in the future. If the facts prove that the special operations are indeed effective, I don't mind that you will train the entire 19th Detachment into a special force." Xu Shijiu waved his hand and said without any argument, "It's decided, the 5th Battalion."

"Okay, then it's the 5th team." Gao Shenxing nodded and wanted to turn around and leave, but Xu Shijiu stopped him.

"Old Gao, don't hurry to leave, I'm looking for you too." Xu Shijiu pushed the map he just looked at. Gao Shenxing looked at it and saw dense marks on it, all of which were information from the Japanese and puppet troops. However, these marks were all concentrated in a narrow area, which was also the marching route they had infiltrated into Longkou County.

Apart from this route, the surrounding area is blank and there is no marking on it.

Gao Shenxing looked down at the map, but Xu Shijiu said blindly: "I want to go to Longkou County."

"Do you want to hit Longkou County?" Gao Shenxing looked up suddenly and looked at Xu Shijiu in surprise, "I'm afraid it won't work?"

The last time they destroyed two infantry squads of Little Japan in Panshi Valley, it was a coincidence. First, the Little Japan was not familiar with the terrain of Erlong Mountain, and second, the Little Japan divided the troops. The most important thing was that Little Japan obviously underestimated the enemy. I didn’t know that there were eight elite veterans, Xu Shijiu, who were caught off guard and suffered a big loss.

If the head-on confrontation is made, eight veterans and the bandits in Qinglongzhai will definitely not overturn two squads. Just overturning one infantry squad is enough. This is still ambushes in the mountains. If you go to Longkou County to fight a tough battle, it will be even less than enough. Even if you have Li Shuangqin and more than 100 veterans, it will not work.

To put it bluntly, this is not a problem that can be solved by individual soldiers alone. It depends on powerful firepower. Without strong firepower, you will train hundreds of bandits from the 19th Detachment to be like Gao Shenxing, and you will still not be able to take the county seat. No matter how powerful Gao Shenxing is, the little Japanese will still be thrown to the ground after a round of calls.

"Where did I want to go to the county town?" Xu Shijiu shook his head, "Just go and lie."

Xu Shijiu pointed to the map again and said, "We know very little about Longkou County. How many local armed forces are there in each township and town? How many people and guns are there in each armed force? Especially the Japanese army in the county, we know nothing about it. This is not conducive to future development, so I want to go to the county town first to explore the bottom of the little Japanese."

In ancient times, the army had not moved, and food and grass had come first, but now, the army had not moved, and intelligence came first.

If you want to win a war, it is absolutely impossible to not have enough understanding of the enemy. For example, before launching a full-scale invasion of China, the intelligence collection work against China had even been secretly carried out for nearly half a century. Some young staff officers even drew detailed maps against North China through "travel" and East China.

Therefore, after the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, Japan's progress became unstoppable. Even the water grid terrain in the Songhu area, which German adviser Farkenhausen, had high hopes, failed to play a role in delaying the Japanese, because Japan had already made careful preparations for this characteristic of the East China region.

If the 19th Detachment wants to gain a foothold in Erlongshan and to persist in the War of Resistance in Longkou County, it must have a clear understanding of the local armed forces in the surrounding areas, especially to understand the details of the Japanese garrison in Longkou County, and then be able to formulate future development plans and combat plans in a targeted manner.

Gao Shenxing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Leave this matter to me, I will go with Li Mu."

Xu Shijiu nodded. He was very relieved to leave this matter to Gao Shenxing. Even if his identity was exposed, he was not afraid. Longkou County said it was big or small, but it was not small. It was easy to find a hiding place with Gao Shenxing's ability. It would be difficult for a Japanese to keep Gao Shenxing and Li Mu.

However, Xu Shijiu still reminded: "Be careful."

Gao Shenxing smiled and said, "You didn't say often before, is the little Japanese who can kill you not born yet? Today I will also give you this to you. The little Japanese who can kill me Gao Shenxing is not born yet."

After leaving the detachment command center, Gao Shenxing called Li Mu and set off overnight.

The two of them walked for more than a hundred miles and rushed to the east gate of Longkou County before dawn the next day. They took a nap in a cornfield outside the city gate and ate some food. It was completely bright and there were more pedestrians on the road. They were all nearby mountain people who were pushing various vegetables or carrying firewood to the city to catch the morning market.
