Chapter 72 Attack on the cities
Attack Zhucheng
When Li Guosheng returned to the ** regiment's headquarters, the troops sent to various villages in Wulian Township had already received rations prepared to be distributed to ordinary people under the command of He Feng, the company commander of the logistics and supplies company.
Back at the command center, he saw the Chief of Staff Li Guanghua who was lying on the table to count various data, and Li Guosheng asked directly: "Chief of Staff, how much can we have left after the food is distributed..."
Seeing Li Guosheng, Chief of Staff Li Guanghua, who raised his head, stared at him for a long time, and then sighed: "Tuanzou, I don't know how your head grows. Such a good way can be thought of. After one battle, not only did it buy the hearts of tens of thousands of ordinary people in the entire Wulian Township, but more importantly, it also allowed our group to get a total of 300,000 kilograms of stored grain and more than 300,000 oceans of gold and silver... I am really convinced you..."
Of course, while feeling moved, Li Guanghua did not forget the serious matter and continued to speak.
"The statistics have been counted. In addition, there is another thing that requires you to make a decision. After the Self-Governor Group began to release grain, many young and middle-aged people in Wulian Township wanted to save their lives to join our Governor Group, especially those young people who had relatives at home died tragically at the hands of the Japanese. They were very enthusiastic and shouted to join the Governor Group to take revenge and kill the Japanese... Look..."
"How many people are there?"
Although Li Guosheng knew the truth that "there is no more soldiers but the more important ones are the more elite soldiers" when he was able, and in the current war-torn environment in China, of course, the more elite soldiers, the better. He asked directly to Chief of Staff Li Guanghua without any shirks.
"There are about 150 people who voluntarily sign up for the military. However, if we announce the conditions and military pay for the ** regiment, I will guarantee that the number of people participating will immediately exceed the 500 mark..." Li Guanghua said.
"Five hundred people... Chief of Staff, since we have enough food and financial resources to support soldiers, what are we worried about? Besides, new recruits are better than veterans to a certain extent, at least they are not as slick as veterans. As long as they are well trained, sooner or later, they will become the elite of my ** regiment..."
"Tell the people below that our ** regiment will start recruiting soldiers from now on... The recruit battalion will immediately draw some officers and reorganize two to three companies for training. As for the equipment lacking in the training of recruits, we will use some of the Japanese equipment seized in this Wulian Township ambush battle. Anyway, the ammunition is limited, and it will be used up after use. We don't feel sorry..." Li Guosheng ordered.
“Yes, the group….”
Just as the two made a decision, Gao Weidong, the platoon leader of the regiment headquarters who was in charge of the security of the regiment headquarters, rushed in: "Reporting the regiment seat, chief of staff, and commander Zhao of the cavalry company, came, saying that there is an important military information report..."
"I came just right. I was worried that there would be no war in the past two days. Zhao Xinting has sent me information. Hurry up, let him in..." Zhao Xinting's return means that he can finally take action with Zhucheng County. The excited Li Guosheng directly ordered with anticipation.
"Yes, the group seat..." Huang Weidong turned around and walked out. In less than ten seconds, Zhao Xinting stood in front of the two of them with breathless figure. It was obvious that Zhao Xinting, who had just returned, had not had time to rest, came to his own group headquarters to report.
"Drink a little water first, and then report to me and the Chief of Staff. The information that your cavalry company has detected in the past two days..." Li Guosheng pointed to the water cup placed on the table and ordered...
Maybe he was really tired. After hearing the order, Zhao Xinting poured a glass of water directly into it. After wiping the water stains on the corner of his mouth, he spoke: "Rounce, Chief of Staff, according to the investigation, there are two Japanese soldiers in the entire Zhucheng County. One of them is located west of Zhucheng County. Like the team we destroyed in Wulian Township, we also came to collect food in the place."
"As for another Japanese, stationed in Zhucheng County, the total force is calculated according to the organization mentioned by the regiment, and it happens to be a reinforced squadron. It is under its jurisdiction, three heavy machine guns and three medium-sized mortars, with a population of about two hundred people..."
"In other words, there are less than 300 Japanese soldiers in the entire Zhucheng area..." Li Guosheng raised his eyebrows and asked directly.
"Yes..." Zhao Xinting nodded affirmatively.
"Damn it, less than 300 Japanese devils, why did he plunder so much food at one time? As far as I know, the total Japanese army landed in Qingdao this time was only about 5,000, and we seized more than 500,000 kilograms in Wulian Township alone. If we add the plunder from other places, there will be at least one million kilograms of food. Why did he want so much food? Do you plan to stay in Qingdao forever and not leave..."
"No matter what the Japanese plan is, I have to make a decision in Zhucheng County... Chief of Staff, I decided to eat the Japanese with less than 300 people quietly and take Zhucheng County. Let Zhucheng County become the temporary base of my ** regiment. What do you think..." After asking repeatedly, Li Guosheng asked directly to his old partner.
Although it is not clear why Li Guosheng had to take down Zhuchengs occupied by the Japanese army instead of capturing those counties occupied by the Beiyang army. However, as a chief of staff, he was very clear that if his ** regiment wanted to develop in Shandong, he had to have a logistics base, which is the base area mentioned by the regiment commander.
Since the regiment commander Li Guosheng decided to take Zhucheng, Li Guanghua, who had already decided to follow Li Guosheng and assist Li Guosheng, certainly had no objection and directly expressed his agreement: "I agree that with the combat effectiveness of my ** regiment, it is absolutely no problem to win three hundred Japanese devils..."
"Okay, since that's the case, then we are ready to make preparations to capture Zhucheng..." Li Guosheng ordered firmly.
