5pm.
The headquarters of the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army.
Li Yunlong had just finished dinner when First Battalion Commander Zhang Dabiao hurried in from outside.
He saluted Li Yunlong and then reported: "Reporting to the head of the regiment, news has just come from Jinzhong County that the Japs and puppet troops in the city have gathered urgently at noon. According to the underground party's informant within the puppet army, the Japanese army will be here tonight."
There will be action.
The specific actions are still unclear.”
Hearing this, Li Yunlong suddenly became energetic: "Damn it, this old devil Hattori Naoomi finally couldn't sit still and is about to take the bait.
Their military operations must be aimed at the Second Independent Regiment!"
Zhang Dabiao asked: "Then what should we do? Should we go to Zhaojia'ao immediately?"
Li Yunlong waved his hand and said: "No rush, we will wait until dark. The reason why the Japs wait until dark before taking action is because they are afraid of disturbing the situation. If we act now, we might also attract the attention of the Japs scouts, thus
To alert the snake.
If we miss this opportunity, it will not be that easy to kill Hattori Naoomi in the future."
"Besides, it will take a certain amount of time for the Japanese 9th Brigade to set off from Jinzhong County to Zhaojia'ao, and even if the Independent Second Regiment lures the snake out of its hole, it is impossible to wipe out the Japanese 9th Brigade at once.
So it’s totally in time!”
"Pass my order, the four battalions will stay at the station. The first battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion will be ready for battle immediately. Refresh yourself and set off in two hours!"
"yes!"
Zhang Dabiao agreed with a bang, then turned around and conveyed the order.
At this time, the political commissar Zhao Gang next to him suddenly said: "Old Li, on such an important matter as encircling and annihilating the Japanese 9th Brigade, should we report it to the brigade headquarters?"
Li Yunlong: "I would like to report, but we don't have a radio station, and the phone lines are not connected. Waiting for the signal soldiers to come and go, I'm afraid the day lilies will be cold."
Originally, Li Yunlong had robbed a radio station from Wang Chengzhu before, but it was robbed again by the brigade commander.
Li Yunlong was unhappy about this for a long time before. Now that he thinks about it, not having a radio station is actually a good thing.
Zhao Gang was speechless for a moment, and after a moment he said: "Old Li, we took action without asking for permission. It would be bad if the superiors blamed us."
Li Yunlong: "Are you the group leader or am I the group leader?"
Zhao Gang: "Of course you are the leader."
Li Yunlong: "That's alright, you take care of life matters, and I take care of military matters.
We are all on fire right now, and the Second Independent Regiment is at risk of being hit hard by the Japanese 9th Brigade at any time. If we wait until we have requested instructions before taking action, and an accident occurs to the Second Independent Regiment, who will bear the consequences?"
Zhao Gang: "This time the snake was lured out of the cave by Captain Wang. He should be sure, right?"
Of course Li Yunlong knew that Wang Chengzhu never fought an uncertain battle, and he went to Zhaojia'ao not to help the Second Independent Regiment, but to make a fortune.
But of course Li Yunlong would not say that. He said with a serious face: "Old Zhao, of course I know that Wang Chengzhu planned this snake out of the cave. I am afraid that this python is too big and the Independent Second Regiment cannot swallow it in one bite.
You have to know that the little devil mobilized at least an infantry regiment this time, plus a security regiment, or even more.
Do you think the Second Independent Regiment is guaranteed to win? Even if it is guaranteed to win, if the Second Independent Regiment suffers too many casualties, what's the point?"
Hearing this, Zhao Gang stopped talking.
Li Yunlong was overjoyed and continued: "I would rather accept the punishment from my superiors than I absolutely do not want any accident to happen to this heroic unit of the Second Independent Regiment.
Because the next battle cannot be separated from the Second Independent Regiment!"
Zhao Gang thought about it and felt that what Li Yunlong said seemed a bit unreasonable. After hesitating for a moment, he said: "Old Li, what you said is not unreasonable. Indeed, if you are timid in everything, you may not make mistakes, but you will definitely not
What great results have been achieved.
OK, this time I support your action!
If the superior leader blames you afterwards, I will bear the responsibility together with you!"
Li Yunlong thought to himself: "Old Zhao, Old Zhao, I finally deceived you this time!"
Of course, although Li Yunlong thought so in his heart, he would not say it with his mouth.
He smiled and said: "Old Zhao, don't worry, even if the superiors blame me, I will bear the responsibility and I will never harm you."
Bidige
Zhao Gang suddenly felt that something was wrong, but he couldn't find the problem for a while.
…
At the same time, Ding Wei and Kong Jie also received the news, and their battle plan was similar to Li Yunlong's. They both decided to take action after dark.
I have to say that the Northern Shanxi Iron Triangle sometimes has a very tacit understanding.
As for Wang Chengzhu, because the Second Independent Regiment has a radio station, news from Jinzhong County only needs to be conveyed to Zhaojia'ao, and then can be sent back to the headquarters of the Second Independent Regiment in Baijiagou in the form of a telegram.
Therefore, Wang Chengzhu got the news three hours in advance.
Of course he was the same and wanted to wait until dark before taking action. The reason why he only deployed two battalions of troops in Zhaojia'ao was because he was afraid that there would be too many people and frighten Hattori Naomi, so he did not dare to come.
If we act in advance now, if we are discovered by the Japanese scouts, all our efforts will be in vain.
…
At the 386th Brigade Headquarters.
Naturally, the actions of the Japanese in Jinzhong County could not be hidden from the brigade commander's eyes.
The chief of staff on the side said: "Brigade commander, it seems that Wang Chengzhu's fishing plan is going to succeed. Hattori Naoomi, this old devil, seems to be unable to sit still."
After a pause, the chief of staff changed his voice and continued: "In addition, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie really can't sit still. Brigadier, you are really amazing!"
The brigade commander slowly put down the tea cup in his hand and smiled without saying a word.
The chief of staff added: "According to reliable intelligence, Hattori Naomi will dispatch at least one infantry regiment this time, plus an Imperial Army security regiment, with only the Second Independent Regiment, the New First Regiment, the New Second Regiment and the Independent Regiment.
, 4 The strength of each regiment means that even if we can win, there will definitely be a tough battle to fight.
In order to avoid too many casualties in each regiment, should we ask the 772nd Regiment and the 771st Regiment to send troops to reinforce them?"
Brigadier: "If it were in the past, if our Eighth Route Army wanted to defeat or even severely damage a Japanese infantry regiment with only four regiments, plus an Imperial Army security regiment, it might not be possible.
However, in the past few months, each regiment has developed very well. Not only has its military strength been greatly improved, but its weapons and equipment have also been greatly strengthened.
The combat effectiveness is naturally not comparable to that of the past.
What's more, I can't take Wang Chengzhu's independent second regiment lightly.
And this is a trap set by him.
Therefore, Chief of Staff, your worries are completely unnecessary."
Seeing that the chief of staff still seemed worried, the brigade commander added: "Don't forget, more than two months ago, a unit of the Second Independent Regiment severely damaged an infantry regiment of the Japanese 4th Brigade, and then combined forces with other parties to
regiment and directly destroyed the 4th Brigade."
Upon hearing this, the chief of staff became silent.
