"Brother, what are you looking at? Hurry up and study the map!"
Li Qiufan was still looking sadly into the distance when Li Yunlong suddenly took him to the war room.
"call!"
Li Qiufan took a deep breath to calm down, and then followed Li Yunlong in.
"Brother, I did some research. Although there are many Japanese strongholds around Taiyuan, they are all small shrimps. We are overqualified to defeat them."
"In my opinion, the two of us still need to study the little Japanese in Taiyuan and capture them before we can have meat to eat!"
Li Yunlong pointed to the map to Li Qiufan, and then came up with the idea of Taiyuan Japs.
"Aren't you, Lao Li, afraid of chipping your teeth? Are the Japanese in Taiyuan so easy to beat?"
Li Qiufan had a big head, and what happened to the monk and Lao Li's swelling made his temples bulge.
"Hey, brother, what do you think of fighting? We can't just sit back and train our soldiers every day. No matter how we train our soldiers, we might as well go to the battlefield to train!"
Li Yunlong sat down on the stool and said with a sad face.
Li Qiufan still agrees with Li Yunlong's words. Soldiers who have not experienced the baptism of war are simply not good. Soldier training must be done on the battlefield.
"How about we do this? Let's set up a camp for the Japanese to support them!"
Li Qiufan looked at the map and suddenly had an idea, pointed to a location on the map and said.
After hearing this, Li Yunlong looked at the map, then frowned and asked: "Brother, do you mean to surround Shangyang County and then ambush the Japanese for reinforcements?"
The place Li Qiufan pointed to was a county town occupied by the Japs, where a regiment of Japs was stationed.
However, this place was too close to the surrounding strongholds, and the Japanese support was too fast, so there were no troops to attack him.
"Yes, that's it. This place is not very close to Taiyuan. Even if the little devils from Taiyuan come out, they can't catch up with us."
"And as long as we encircle this county, I estimate that the total number of Japanese troops supporting us will be at least half a division."
"Although there is no big fish, there is still something to eat. You have to eat it one bite at a time."
Li Qiufan explained to Li Yunlong that according to his prediction, there must be half a division of the Japanese who supported the past.
The strength of half a division was something he and Li Yunlong could handle together.
After Li Yunlong listened to Li Qiufan's explanation, he lay on the map and studied it for a while, and then nodded.
"Brother, you are right. The ordinary troops in this place really don't dare to take his idea. As long as the county town is attacked, Japanese support will definitely arrive within thirty minutes."
"And the troop strength you predicted should be similar. I took a look at the Japanese defenses. They arranged their strongholds like this to coordinate with each other, and to prevent them from being eaten by our main force alone."
"With the strength of our two troops, I think we can study it!"
After Li Yunlong studied it carefully, he expressed his opinion, and then agreed with Li Qiufan's idea.
"This time around the point of encirclement and reinforcements, the pressure from the county must be sufficient, so I will be responsible for the county."
"At that time, I will arrange two infantry regiments here plus my artillery regiment. I believe the Japanese will not dare to leave the city easily."
"In addition, the firepower of my artillery regiment is strong enough, and the Japanese in the county will definitely ask for help. What do you think?"
Li Qiufan decided to do the encirclement work. Although he had to dedicate part of his troops, his intention was to capture the county seat as well.
"Brother, this is not good, you are at a huge disadvantage!"
"I would say you can send an infantry regiment and an artillery regiment, and we, Mr. Li, can also send out a regiment, so you can have an extra regiment to block the attack."
Li Yunlong felt a little sorry when he heard Li Qiufan's arrangement. It was obvious that he had given the big head to him, but he didn't know that Li Qiufan had the idea of taking over the county seat.
"What's the point? We brothers don't have to worry about this. Next, let's plan where to ambush and eat the Japanese reinforcements!"
Li Qiufan waved his hand and said nonchalantly.
"Sure, don't worry, brother, we, Lao Li, will definitely not suffer any loss from you!"
Li Yunlong no longer persisted, thinking of giving more spoils to Li Qiufan after the fight was over.
By the time the two of them finished studying the ambush location, it was already noon, and just then the monk sneaked in.
"brigadier?"
The monk tiptoed behind Li Qiufan and shouted softly.
"Um?"
Li Qiufan had long sensed someone approaching, but he thought it was Li Yunlong's person coming to report on work, so he ignored him.
But after hearing the monk's voice, Li Qiufan felt that the voice was very familiar, and then turned to look.
"Monk! How dare you come back! Let me see if I don't skin you!"
Seeing that it was a monk, Li Qiufan stood up suddenly, and then threw himself forward.
The monk knew that he was no match for Li Qiufan, so he turned around and ran away, not giving Li Qiufan a chance to catch him.
"Monk, if you run away again, I will shoot you!"
Although the monk was not his opponent, the monk ran faster than him. Li Qiufan could only pull out the Browning M1935 from his waist and shouted at the monk.
"Brigadier! I won't run away, put your gun away quickly, be careful of misfire!"
Seeing Li Qiufan draw his gun, the monk felt a wave of cold air rushing straight into the sky. He instantly stopped and did not dare to run anymore. He was really afraid that Li Qiufan would kill him and silence him.
"Come here for me honestly and have a fight with me, and I won't shoot you!"
Li Qiufan did not put away the gun immediately because he was afraid that the monk would be dishonest and run away without a trace.
"Okay, Brigadier, please be gentle."
The monk had no idea of escaping at this time, and just prayed that Li Qiufan would be gentle when he beat him.
"Haha, you run very fast!"
Seeing the monk walking in front of him, Li Qiufan put away his pistol and said to him with a smile.
"Brigadier, let's agree first, don't fight...ah!"
The monk waved his hands and was about to say not to slap him in the face when he was punched to the ground by Li Qiufan.
"What did you say? Don't hit anywhere?"
Looking at the monk holding his chin, Li Qiufan raised the corners of his mouth slightly. He guessed what the monk was going to say, so he immediately removed the monk's chin.
At this time, the monk's jaw was dislocated and he could not hear clearly what he was saying. He could only bear Li Qiufan's urging with despair.
More than twenty minutes later, Li Qiufan wiped the sweat from his forehead, took a long breath, then turned around and continued to study the details with Lao Li.
The monk was sitting on the ground miserably, crying without tears. His eyes turned into panda eyes, the kind that would charge admission to the zoo.
After discussing with Lao Li, Li Qiufan took the guard battalion directly back to the station, preparing to take the troops to meet at the place agreed with Lao Li.
