"Report!"
"Come in." A team headquarters. Two months ago, Duan Peng, who was sent to Zhongtiao Mountain to support the Fourth Independent Regiment along with the American equipment, returned with the commando members.
At this moment, Duan Peng came to the headquarters and reported his orders to Kong Jie. Also returning together was Wang Shoucheng, commander of the first company of the armored corps that had originally reinforced Zhongtiao Mountain.
Seeing the return of his two tiger generals, Kong Jie's face was full of smiles. After opening the curtain and entering the inner room, Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng put their heels together and respectfully gave Kong Jie a standard military salute.
Then Duan Peng took the lead and said: "Report to the detachment leader. The commando team was ordered to escort American equipment and reinforce the Zhongtiao Mountain operation. The task has been completed. I came here to report the situation to the detachment leader!" Then Wang Shoucheng also said: "Report Detachment leader, this time the 1st Armored Company was ordered to reinforce the Fourth Independent Regiment and successfully completed the mission. Our 1st Armored Company did not suffer any losses of combat vehicles or personnel during the battle!"
"Okay, okay! In the battle at Zhongtiao Mountain, your armored company and the commando team fought very well." Kong Jie's smile became brighter, and then he changed the topic and asked: "Do you know what I am doing? Why did you issue an order to the Fourth Regiment Headquarters and rush you back to the detachment?" Looking at Kong Jie's smiling eyes, Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng shook their heads in confusion.
Kong Jie said: "I won't explain the specific situation to you. At present, the crisis in Zhongtiao Mountain has been resolved. The Fourth Independent Regiment has completely established a foothold in the Zhongtiao Mountain base. There will be no major battles in the short term. Crisis. So I called your two teams back to the base area to enhance the combat strength of our team." After saying this, seeing the confusion on the faces of Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng, Kong Jie smiled and said: "You guys just Stop thinking blindly. I tell you this in advance so that you can step up your troop training after you return and be ready to go into battle at any time. The headquarters will have new combat missions for you at any time!"
"Yes!" Although they couldn't figure out the situation, seeing that Kong Jie had no intention of explaining, Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng didn't ask too many questions, so they answered and turned around to leave.
It wasn't until I walked out of the courtyard of the headquarters that the doubts in my heart completely exploded. Wang Shoucheng said with a puzzled look on his face: "Duan Peng, I'm not bragging. The overall strength and foundation of our team now is the best among the entire Eighth Route Army. But the team leader is actually eager to recall us to the base area. It's about enhancing the combat strength of a team. Could it be that... there is going to be another large-scale battle?" Duan Peng shook his head: "You ask me, who should I ask?" As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly seemed to think of something. Duan Peng, who was wondering something, slapped his forehead and said, "By the way, we can go ask the monk! Not long ago, the monk who helped in Jizhong and the comrades of the guard have also returned to the detachment." The two hit it off immediately, and after making up their mind, they immediately went to look for the monk.
Wei Monk, the guard of Kong Jie, the former commander of the independent regiment, later became the commander of the security company at the headquarters of the independent regiment. After a detachment was established and developed, the monk is now the well-known guard battalion commander of the detachment headquarters.
Of course, there is another identity - he will serve as Kong Jie's personal bodyguard and temporary guard at any time when Kong Jie is out.
As for when he was usually at the detachment headquarters, the monk was directly kicked out by Kong Jie and went to train the guard camp.
In Kong Jie's words: "You, monk, are not eating alone now. The whole family is not hungry anymore. You are carrying a heavy burden! The safety of the entire guard camp, including more than 300 soldiers, including the entire detachment headquarters, is all against you, kid." On your shoulders. If nothing happens, don't come to me to fight. Haha, I don't want you as a guard to serve tea and water. It would be good to lead more guard camps to conduct training, even if you take time to learn some cultural knowledge."... … Guard Camp Training Ground.
The commander of the guard battalion, the monk, is leading the soldiers of the guard battalion to do physical training in sweat. The monk held up two large stone locks and exercised them with great breath.
That single stone lock probably weighed forty or fifty kilograms, and it seemed as if it had lost weight as it was being manipulated back and forth in the monk's hands.
The guards and soldiers behind them were also training with seemingly the same stone locks. They all gritted their teeth and saw the arrival of Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng, with bitterness on their faces.
There was nothing I could do, the battalion commander was too overbearing, and he did it during the entire security battalion training.
"dictatorship", what do you mean? These are the contents of my training in Shaolin Temple. You are the same. You can't be less. Practice it for me. You are not required to reach my level. You must be at least half as capable as me. Bar?
This is a hardship for the soldiers in the guard camp. Being subjected to various types of high-intensity training every day made me complain incessantly.
But there was no way, even if he complained to the detachment leader, in the words of the soldiers, the detachment leader always protected the calf and was partial to the battalion commander!
Knowing that the monk had extremely strict training for the guard camp, Kong Jie said with a smile: "Monk, you want to train the entire guard camp into a monk camp for me! If you are really capable, you can train the entire guard camp to become a monk camp." All the soldiers in the battalion are trained just like you, Monk Wei. I will personally go to the headquarters to ask for your credit!" Look!
Doesn’t this make the monk more and more energetic? …
"What? Fighting? Recently? Or on a large scale? I've never heard of such a thing!" After Duan Peng and Wang Shoucheng expressed their intentions, the monk shook his head and knew nothing about it.
In fact, it was not just Duan Peng and the others who expressed doubts about this. Even within the detachment headquarters, Chief of Staff Xu Guoan, including Political Commissar Li Wenjie, were very puzzled by Kong Jie's recent focus on simulating future large-scale operations.
In the staff room of the detachment headquarters. Kong Jie was studying the entire situation in northwestern Shanxi presented on the military simulation sand table.
He still spoke plausibly: "Once it starts, the enemy's attack routes will mainly be in these directions... The transfer of people will be handled by the militia, and the transportation of materials will ensure the logistics of the forward combat troops, and will be operated by the militia workers' corps..."
"It is best to divide the battle into three fronts. The first line is defensive warfare on the inside, the first line is guerrilla warfare on the outside, and the third is surprise warfare deep into the Japanese rear..."
"It's starting again!" Not far away, looking at Kong Jie immersed in the sand table, Chief of Staff Xu Guoan turned to the political commissar Li Wenjie and said.
Li Wenjie smiled and nodded: "Yes, I don't know if the group leader is crazy these days. He has been studying this sand table all day long. Let's ask, and we won't say anything. No. Do you know what kind of medicine the regiment leader is selling in this gourd?" While joking, Xu Guoan strode to the side of the sand table and said with a smile: "Old Kong, are you studying again? Now you can always tell us that you have done this in the past two days What on earth are you studying?" Seeing Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie enter the room, Kong Jie stood up straight from the sand table with a smile and said: "Let's not talk about this for now, Wenjie, Lao Xu, let me ask you, Jizhong Military Region How?" Xu Guoan was startled, not expecting that Kong Jie would suddenly ask such a question.
After thinking for a moment, he still replied: "We will not consider the development of the army for the time being. Compared with our Taihang Taiyue base area, the Jizhong Military Region is quite good in agricultural development in the base area." Li Wenjie expressed this deeply. Agree,
"Yes, especially after your work on tunnel warfare reached Jizhong, commander, the comrades in the Jizhong Military Region quickly applied tunnel warfare tactics to practice. In addition, the terrain in Jizhong was flat, and the people The foundation is solid. Although this Jizhong Military Region is the second-level military region of our Eighth Route Army, its scale has grown quite rapidly. It currently has five military divisions. In recent years, with rapid expansion, so far, the entire Jizhong Military Region has The military region has jurisdiction over thirty or forty counties, and nearly half of them are under the complete control of the Jizhong Military Region. There are seven to eight million people, with vast arable land and dense farmland, and a large number of people are involved in production. , agriculture developed. Especially after the spread of our improved potatoes, it further promoted the rise of agriculture in the central Hebei area. Based on the prosperity of the people in the area and the stable development of the army, among our Eighth Route Army troops, there is even a saying that the entire The Jizhong Military Region is called the Ukraine of our Eighth Route Army troops!" Kong Jie said: "That's absolutely right. Although our team has developed rapidly in recent years, it is not as good as the large-scale agricultural development of the entire Jizhong Military Region. In comparison, it still feels like a small fight. In the Jizhong Military Region, which has a large population, dense farmland, and developed agriculture, since the Battle of Zhengtai, the national army has completely cut off the supply to our Eighth Route Army troops. After the logistics of our Eighth Route Army troops, , and the supply of soldiers, it actually plays a vital role. In other words, if the Land of Abundance is the heart of our China, the current Jizhong Military Region is the heart of our Eighth Route Army." Li Wenjie and Xu Guoan said about Kong Jie The review does not deny it.
The Jizhong base area does have unique advantages in the development of agriculture, which is something that even the current team cannot match.
"It's just...Old Kong, what do you mean when you suddenly mentioned the Jizhong Military Region?" Kong Jie asked straight to the point: "Old Xu, you said that it serves as the hidden base of our Eighth Route Army troops, and even serves as a The Jizhong Military Region plays an important role in logistics and soldier base. We can realize the irreplaceable importance of this Jizhong Military Region to our Eighth Route Army. Are the little devils just blind and unable to see these situations?" Xu Guoan then Suddenly he realized: "Old Kong, I understand. I said you have been studying the war for the past two days. Are you worried that the Japanese will launch a raid on our Jizhong Military Region?" Kong Jie said decisively: "I can only say , if I were a kid, I would definitely insert the sharpest dagger into the heart of the Eighth Route Army’s Jizhong Military Region. And within the Japanese army, the Jizhong Military Region has long been called the core military station of our Eighth Route Army. I I think the Japanese will definitely attack the Jizhong Military Region, it's just a matter of time." Kong Jie said very solemnly, but Xu Guoan beside him suddenly laughed.
"Old Xu, why are you laughing?" Kong Jie said in shock. Xu Guoan smiled and said: "Old Kong, I'm laughing at you for not worrying too much! The Jizhong Military Region has a fully developed tunnel foundation, and the elites of all the troops together have at least 50,000 or 60,000 people. Under your plan , all the troops in Central Hebei, with the 28th Regiment as the center, launched a large-scale military training in the entire base area. The troops have been further refined. It can be said that the current Jizhong Military Region not only has a strong agricultural foundation, but also has a strong military strength. The little devil thought Destroying the Jizhong Military Region, the military depot of our Eighth Route Army, is no longer a matter of a day or two. But the Japanese have to consider whether they have the strength." At this point, Xu Guoan changed the subject and said: "In addition, the Japanese have to consider whether they have the strength. , speaking of which, Lao Kong, instead of worrying about the Jizhong Military Region, you should be more worried about our team!"
"Worried about our detachment?" Kong Jie was confused again. Xu Guoan said happily: "Yes! Haven't you heard of some rumors recently?"
"What rumors?" Kong Jie asked. Xu Guoan said: "It is said that our first team is the core of the entire Taihang base area of our Eighth Route Army! From this perspective, if the Jizhong Military Region is the heart of our entire Eighth Route Army, then our first team is the heart of the entire Taihang base area. Old Kong, you are worried that the heart of our Eighth Route Army will be stabbed by the Japs, aren't you worried that the heart of our Taihang Base Area will be attacked by the Japs?" Kong Jie was dumbfounded!
He really hadn't heard of this rumor. When did our team become so famous and become the heart of the entire Taihang base?
"Why, you don't believe it?" Xu Guoan said with a smile: "When I went to the headquarters for a meeting last time, the heads of each group put forward this statement, and even the bosses who were at the meeting did not deny it. Everyone said that when it comes to economic development , one team was the first to rise, and then with one team as the center, it even affected the economic development of other regiments and even the entire Taihang base area. In terms of military development, the first team was at the gateway of the Taihang base area and undertook the absolute responsibility of the Japanese army's mopping up. Most of the pressure. In addition, whether it is internal visits, exchanges and studies, large-scale training of the whole regiment, equipment development and equipment introduction, it is basically under the promotion of our team." Cough cough cough - the words paused After a pause, Xu Guoan coughed twice and continued: "Also...comrades also said that when it comes to their hatred of our Eighth Route Army, when they see a team, the eyes of the Japanese seem to be spitting fire! So A team that has a comprehensive military and economic development and can attract the hatred of the little devils to the greatest extent, why is it not the heart of our Taihang base?" Kong Jie: "..." He was speechless for a moment.
After a few people joked for a while, they got down to business. Kong Jie looked at the military simulation sand table in front of him and said: "Old Xu, Wenjie, we mentioned this topic. You are right. This Jizhong Military Region is a thorn in the eyes of the little Japanese, and our team is also a thorn in the eyes of the Japanese. Since So, in my opinion, we might as well continue with this topic. Let’s have a game. What if the Japanese army uses an unprecedented large-scale force to launch a comprehensive sweep of our Taihang, Taiyue and even Jizhong base areas. How will our team protect the safety of the people? At the same time, they can also cooperate with the Jizhong, Taihang, Taiyue and other troops to complete this anti-mopping military simulation exercise!" As soon as these words came out, Xu Guoan and Li Wenjie's eyes sparkled.
"Old Kong, what do you want to do?" Kong Jie said with a smile: "First call all the heads of regiments and political commissars to participate in the meeting. What I want to know more now is what they will do!"...
