"Battal Commander, there's a situation here..." a soldier from the assault battalion guard company shouted, knocking on the floor tiles.
"It seems to be empty down here..."
After saying that, he used a bayonet to pry open the floor tiles, and an iron plate soon appeared in front of Huang Yu.
When you pry open the iron plate, you will find two small boxes hidden inside...
"It's gold. The box is full of small yellow croakers..." the soldier opened the box and shouted.
Chen Quan estimated the value of these small yellow croakers at a glance: "One box is worth ten thousand oceans... There is a total of twenty thousand oceans of gold here!"
"Keep looking!" Huang Yu ordered happily.
"This Captain Zhou is really cunning. He knows that eggs cannot be put in one basket and the finances are hidden separately... There must be secret rooms and holes in other parts of the yard..."
"Captain Huang, I discovered something here..." Shen Quan's exclamation soon came from the backyard.
When he walked over, he saw a jar being dug out. Shen Quan was not polite, picked up the jar and smashed it to the ground.
"Crash..."
The ceramic jar was instantly smashed into pieces, and more than a hundred small yellow croakers hidden inside were scattered on the ground. They were so dazzling that they almost blinded everyone.
"Battal Commander, I also found something here..."
At the same time, a ceramic jar was dug out from the corner of the backyard. After breaking it open, it was filled with gold...
Chen Quan immediately looked at Huang Yu: "Deputy Chief of Staff Huang, one jar contains gold worth fifteen thousand oceans, two jars is worth thirty thousand oceans..."
"Including the finances we seized in the room, it's a total of one hundred thousand oceans, which is almost as you estimated!"
"I didn't expect that Captain Zhou would make so much money by reselling weapons and ammunition in the two years he came to northwest Shanxi. It's so cruel..."
"Pack all gold and silver treasures into boxes and hand them over to the regiment headquarters!" Huang Yu ordered with a nod.
"Battle Commander Shen, please work harder and make a list of the weapons, ammunition and food we captured from the 354th Regiment and report it to the regiment headquarters..."
"As soon as things here are over, let's deal with the little devils in the east and west directions!"
"The fat meat that Yoshio Shinozuka offers to our mouths must be eaten, otherwise we will be so sorry for this kindness!"
At the Baipogou Independent Regiment Headquarters, as the troops slowly regained their strength, the total strength also tended to exceed 8,000, and the smile on Kong Jie's face became thicker and thicker.
After several deputy chiefs of staff shared a large number of military affairs, they freed up a lot of time for him to study maps, understand the surrounding enemy and friendly situations, and prepare for the next development of the independent regiment...
"Report..." Duan Yong, the guard battalion commander, suddenly appeared at the entrance of the command department.
"Come in..." Kong Jie raised his head and ordered, then his eyes shifted to Duan Yong's side, a panting soldier.
"Regiment commander, this is the squad leader of the first guard squad of the cavalry battalion. I was ordered by Deputy Chief of Staff Huang to come to the regiment headquarters to deliver something!" Duan Yong quickly told what he had learned.
"Report to the head of the regiment, chief of staff..." The soldier following Duan Yong quickly stood up, saluted, and reported loudly, while handing the cell phone bag to Kong Jie.
"We took down the 354th Regiment and killed two hundred little Japs at the 354th Regiment's station!"
"This is the document we seized at the headquarters of the 354th Regiment, proving that the 354th Regiment has defected to the Japanese and accepted Japanese adaptation!"
"When we killed them, they were holding a meeting to expand the 354th Regiment's Second Guard Brigade of the Royal Association Army!"
"Deputy Chief of Staff Huang suggested that the regiment headquarters should immediately hand over these evidences to the brigade headquarters, and the superior commander should report it to Commander Yan of the Shanxi-Sui Army. This will make our raid on the 354th Regiment more famous. Commander Yan will not be able to cause any trouble for us even if he wants to. arrive!"
Kong Jie was startled by the cavalry squad leader's report and quickly opened his bag to check the evidence sent back by Huang Yu.
His face was very serious before watching, but halfway through, the serious expression on his face began to disappear!
After reading everything, an inexplicable anger suddenly appeared on Kong Jie's face, he slapped the table hard and cursed: "It's wrong for a good Chinese to work for the little devil and become a traitor... You killed well!" "
"To deal with such a big traitor who sells his ancestors for glory, even killing him is an easy task!"
"Captain, Deputy Chief of Staff Huang has an urgent call!" Communications platoon leader Zhang Xuelinxing hurried over.
Kong Jie knew it was good news when he saw the smile on his face, and directly ordered: "Read it loudly to make everyone happy!"
Zhang Xuelin immediately said: "Deputy Chief of Staff Huang commanded the cavalry battalion, the assault battalion, the first battalion, and successfully captured the 354th Regiment, captured nearly 2,000 soldiers and officers of the 354th Regiment, and seized more than 1,500 rifles and 60 Three light and heavy machine guns, nine mortars, four mountain cannons, a large amount of ammunition and food..."
"We are organizing troops to transport loot and prisoners to the base area. Please ask the regiment headquarters to send someone to respond immediately..."
"Deputy Chief of Staff Huang also found financial assets worth 135,000 yuan in the residences of Commander Zhou, the Chief of Staff, and several battalion and company commanders of the 354th Regiment!"
Kong Jie was dumbfounded when he heard this, his face had already blossomed with joy, and he asked with a look of anticipation: "What else did Xiao Huang say? Keep reading!"
"We also seized the twenty carts of weapons and ammunition promised by the Japanese to the 354th Regiment, which is a whole reinforced battalion's equipment!" Zhang Xuelin reported!
"Is there more?" Kong Jie continued to ask.
Zhang Xuelin nodded: "In order to prevent accidents on the way to the 354th Regiment, the Japanese assembled two infantry brigades to monitor the 354th Regiment!"
"Deputy Chief of Staff Huang and Deputy Chief of Staff Shen each brought a reinforced battalion to deal with them. They plan to hunt rabbits and eat the two lumps of fat that the Japanese put in our mouths together!"
"Deputy Chief of Staff Huang also asked the regiment to prepare seven or eight hundred 79-caliber rifles that were damaged during the counter-mopping operation, twenty imitation Czech light machine guns and heavy machine guns that were damaged, and if there were any damaged mortars, It’s best to send him to the commando camp as soon as possible, he will be of great use!”
"We also ask the regiment headquarters to dispatch political cadres to the assault camp to help mobilize prisoners to join the Eighth Route Army. We only accept ordinary soldiers and low-level officers with outstanding abilities. It is best not to exceed a thousand people!"
"The remaining veteran Youzi and the lower-level officers of the 354th Regiment will all stay at the assault camp and be handed over to Deputy Chief of Staff Huang..."
After hearing this, Kong Jie showed a thoughtful expression: "I probably guessed what Xiao Huang was thinking!"
"After we reported the news of the 354th Regiment's defection to the Japanese to Commander Yan, in order to save face and organize the 354th Regiment, Chief Yan will definitely find a way to cover up the situation and send people to rebuild the 354th Regiment!"
"Ask us for the equipment and prisoners captured by the assault battalion."
"Those bombed equipment and the captured officers and veteran Youzi are of no use to us. We might as well return them to Commander Yan, lest he say that our Eighth Route Army has no overall view of the overall situation and disobeys commands!"
"But based on my understanding of Xiao Huang, Commander Yan will definitely not be able to get those equipment and prisoners so easily!"
"I will send a telegram to the brigade headquarters now and ask the commander to report to Commander Yan the news that the 354th Regiment defected to the enemy and became traitors, so as to clear the name of the assault battalion for attacking the 354th Regiment!"
At the headquarters of the 358th Regiment, Chu Yunfei slammed the riding crop in his hand on the table as soon as he entered the door.
Fang Ligong didn't know that the incident of Qian Bojun's defection to the enemy had been resolved, and was mobilizing troops at the regiment headquarters. He immediately showed a worried expression and asked: "Regiment leader... Qian Bojun has really defected to the Japs!"
"Killed by me!" Chu Yunfei replied, but when he said this, there was no joy at all on his face! "
"What about the first battalion? Is there any chaos in the first battalion?" Fang Ligong thought something had happened to the troops during the civil strife, so he asked quickly.
"The first battalion is fine. Except for the dozens of people who were determined to be traitors, I killed the other soldiers intact!" Chu Yunfei replied, still without any smile on his face.
After hearing this, Fang Ligong became more and more confused and asked directly: "This is a good thing! Why don't you feel happy at all!"
"Using a platoon to quell the rebellion of a strengthened battalion not only saved the strength of the 358th Regiment, but also saved our face. It is definitely the best result. You, the regiment leader, are indispensable!"
Chu Yunfei shook his head and replied: "If these things are really done by me, it is indeed worth being happy..."
"The problem is that these credits have nothing to do with me. They all belong to Li Yunlong!"
"Without him, I would have lost my life in Lijia Town!"
"And I was tricked by Li Yunlong at the last moment. How can I be so happy?"
"I don't know why Li Yunlong's nose is so sharp. I just turned against Qian Bojun and was trapped in the headquarters by him waiting for help. The cavalry troops of the New Second Regiment rushed into Lijia Town and defeated the troops surrounding us with just one attack. Everything collapsed, forcing Qian Bojun to run for his life!"
"It's so fast, it's like the cavalry battalion of the New Second Regiment is lying in wait near Lijia Town..."
"When I led the security platoon to hunt down Qian Bojun, I temporarily asked Li Yunlong to help me take care of Lijia Town."
"After I killed Qian Bojun and returned to Lijia Town..."
"Li Yunlong was like scraping the ground. He took away all the equipment, ammunition, and food of a battalion... He couldn't catch up even if he wanted to..."
"What?" Fang Ligong asked with a look of shock on his face!
"Regiment leader, you said that the new second regiment took away all the equipment and ammunition of the first battalion..."
"There are more than a thousand rifles, thirty or forty light and heavy machine guns, and many mortars and heavy machine guns. Why should he!"
"I'm going to the New Second Regiment's station right now, and I'll definitely get back all the equipment and ammunition they stole!"
After Fang Ligong finished speaking, he rushed outside, very anxious!
"What's there to do!" Chu Yunfei cursed unwillingly.
"Li Yunlong dared to snatch the equipment and ammunition from under my nose, which shows that he has already thought of a way to deal with it. Even if I go to the headquarters of the New Second Regiment in person, it will be useless!"
"Besides, from the moment Qian Bojun decided to join the Japs, the First Battalion no longer belongs to the 358th Regiment..."
"Li Yunlong led the troops to raid Lijia Town and transport the seized equipment back to the base area. This is justifiable. We can't find any reason for them to return the equipment..."
"It would be interesting to have a battalion of soldiers in Lijia Town..."
"Even if this matter is brought to the attention of Commander Yan, it will be us who suffer the loss, and it will also bring shame to our 358 regiment. The gain outweighs the loss..."
