The Independent Regiment went to reinforce the headquarters just because it happened to be the right time. In the past, when the Japanese raided the area, most of the time, the Independent Regiment would directly transfer the people and find places to hide.
The Independent Regiment was the first to bear the brunt of the Japanese's summer sweeps. Previously, the Second and Ninth Company came out of the plains and successfully attacked the Japanese cavalry. However, they also suffered great sacrifices and caused the entire independent regiment to participate in the battle, resulting in a large number of casualties.
Immediately after the Japanese launched a large-scale siege of the general headquarters, Commander Lu had no idea and just resolutely carried out the order. Most of the combat troops of the independent regiment entered the mountain, and the actions of the Ninth Company mobilized a brigade of the Japanese troops who were besieging the headquarters and mopping up the headquarters. The strength of the troops and the abandonment of the search reduced the pressure on the comrades who were still struggling to escape in the mountains, but the effect was not obvious.
There was no hope at all for the battalion-level organization of the independent regiment, so Commander Lu had the idea of military divisions! Use the equipment of the Ninth Company in exchange for most of the companies belonging to the military branch supplementary regiment, plus Lao Meng Qiufeng's guerrilla brigade, which also belongs to the military branch! Even if there are only a few dozen people, the organization is indeed at the battalion level!
The development of the independent group has finally begun to take shape.
Political Commissar Ding still stayed in the division, working with the headquarters to break through the encirclement and counter-mopping up. He led the development of the independent regiment and finally wrote a masterpiece!
The staff officer has left. I am not familiar with the person coming from the Sixth District, and his level is not high enough. I would like to summarize it myself.
These seizures during this trip to the mountains were quite a harvest, but it was the Nine Company who stole the show. Now that he has given them away to others, the little girl will not be easy to deal with! I had to use my trump card. Thinking of this, I immediately shouted to the door: "Xiao Bing!"
The security platoon leader of the Independent Regiment turned into the house from outside the door.
"Go, call the girl over, uh...wait a minute... find Uncle Niu first! Also, notify the others to come back. It's outrageous. They had a meeting and all of them disappeared..."
⋯
The little girl who stole the show wore a steel helmet and followed Hu Yi into the hospital: "Hey, fox, what's going on?"
"The military branch is trying to get rid of our radio station. I don't think the armored vehicles can be saved!"
"What they think is beautiful, no one should think about the radio station!"
"If you think about it carefully, among the regiment-level units of the Eighth Route Army, who has a radio station?"
He tilted his neck and stopped: "Well, that's exactly what you said...what should I do?"
"The radio station was seized. Only our Ninth Company can't hold it. Our regiment is also very difficult and too hot. You think, that thing will only be useful if you have at least two stations, right? We can't be in contact with the division all day long, right? So... This radio station is actually useless!"
"I understand. The radio station is gone, and the armored vehicle is gone. We went around in a big circle and didn't catch anything?" The girl's pigtails stood up and her eyes were as wide as bells.
"Do you think we can drive an armored vehicle to fight the Japanese?" Hu Yi's heart tightened. This girl is going to do something bad!
"Okay, you didn't go talk to the guerrilla captain?"
"What nonsense are you talking about!" Hu Yi frowned, his painting style changed too quickly and he couldn't keep up with the rhythm.
"Are you still thinking about vixen?" The girl stared at Hu Yi with a serious expression.
""
The generals of the Independent Regiment have already returned to the yard first. Captain Lu is discussing with Uncle Niu how to convince the little girl. After all, those things belong to the Ninth Company. Hu Yi is easy to say, but that girl is difficult to deal with, so he must come up with a plan first.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Hu Yi entered the room first, saluting a standard military salute, followed by the unscrupulous thing who had been imposing for a long time.
The petite figure wearing a steel helmet, with his hands on his hips and striding like a star, appeared in everyone's sight.
Captain Lu smiled at first, then his expression became serious.
"What do you want me to do when you are in a meeting?" The girl spoke first.
Commander Lu was thinking about how to tell the girl: "The radio station that your Ninth Company captured has been turned over!"
"Yeah." The girl stood next to Hu Yi and blew out a word from her nose.
Captain Lu had been calculating how much he had to pay to convince the ghost girl, but he didn't expect to get a single word reply.
I was stunned for a moment, but now I felt unsure: "Uh... what do you think?"
"I have no idea, you are the leader, you have the final say!" The girl stared with big clear eyes.
Something is wrong, Captain Lu said to himself, how could you let it go with your temper? How could you not mention ten or eight conditions?
"I mean, the radio was given to the military division, and uh... the armored vehicles were given to them too!"
"Yeah." He sprayed another word.
Commander Lu and the generals all have a dark streak. Is this still the same wicked girl? Is this a sign of long-term enlightenment? Or was your head caught in the door?
"What else do you want?" the little girl asked impatiently.
Captain Lu was stunned, that's it? Not a single request? Fortunately, I even called Uncle Niu to discuss it for a long time. It shouldn't be like this in my imagination. I thought of seven or eight ways to save the situation, but now, none of them can be used?
Hu Yi saw that the deal between the girl and the regiment leader was completed, so he said: "Now that we have negotiated, when will we return to the base?"
"Huh?" Everyone around the table was even more confused.
Commander Lu thought to himself, is this still the Ninth Company? I quickly rubbed my eyes and saw that I was right! I checked my ears, and I heard it right!
"How many people have changed?" The little girl couldn't help but ask.
"So you know everything?" Commander Lu finally breathed a sigh of relief. Wasn't he just asking for someone? That's not simple yet.
"Do you think I'm stupid? The radio station is in our group. It's weird if we can save our little arms and legs. Can we also save this armored vehicle?" The girl asked back with a lonely look on her face.
"That's true, there is good news..." Commander Lu sorted out his thoughts: "The Qiufeng Guerrilla Brigade has been reorganized into our independent regiment, east of Meixian County, and will become our guerrilla zone from now on!"
"There's no one over there right now, uh... what do you mean, we go out?" the girl asked.
Gao Yidao, who was next to him, was overjoyed. This time the Nine Company lost his wife and troops, and he said casually: "Why, do you want to stay in the mountains and be a tortoise?"
"You are the turtle, your whole family is a turtle!"
"Uh, you immoral and smoking bastard..."
"Don't talk about the useless ones. How many people will the military division give us?"
"Wang Penglian doesn't need to return the troops he borrowed from us. In addition, we have reached an agreement with the army on the division of troops. Lao Meng will transfer our regiment!" Captain Lu said unhurriedly.
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked and immediately started a chaotic discussion.
"Just them? No, you mean our independent regiment will have a battalion?" the girl asked nervously.
"Not bad!" Commander Lu said enthusiastically.
"How to replenish the soldiers of the replenishment regiment?"
"Replenish to the second company." Gao Yidao replied proudly.
"Have you discussed it all? Does that mean that our Ninth Company has nothing to do with us?" The little girl looked at Commander Lu and raised her eyebrows, her eyes almost getting angry.
"Hehe, that's what I mean."
"You're such a wicked person, you exchanged our Ninth Company's things for people, but gave the people to the Second Company? Hey, do you think we can agree to it because my aunt is so easy to bully? This matter is not over yet!"
"The plain defense area belongs to your ninth company!"
"What you think is beautiful, uh... No, you mean our Ninth Company is the first to be promoted to battalion?"
"You have a beautiful idea, your ninth company will merge with the guerrilla brigade!"
"Who is the battalion commander?"
"Of course it's Lao Meng!"
"The team number is...Ninth Battalion?"
"As long as Lao Meng has no objection, I agree!" Commander Lu approved directly with a wave of his hand.
"Who is the battalion commander?" Confirmed again.
"Of course it's Lao Meng!"
"Why not Hu...Hu...Yi?"
"do you have any opinion?"
"have!"
"Then...keep it!"
"I won't lead you to burn bridges like this!"
"If you don't do it, I will arrange for three consecutive attacks!"
"Wait a minute, what do you mean, Lao Meng continues his guerrilla campaign, and our Ninth Company will follow them to the plains?"
"That's pretty much it. Now all the brother armies are developing and growing. We are the only independent regiment. The more we fight, the fewer people there are. Therefore, we must also develop." Captain Lu frowned as he spoke.
"No, that's not possible, I don't have that ability!" Lao Meng, who was next to the table, finally came to his senses and was shocked. He never expected that Commander Lu would suddenly announce the reorganization, and his superior was the military division, but his team I was too young, so I wasn't very familiar with the leaders in the district. This time it was like going back to my parents' home, but my parents' family didn't seem to like my poor relative at all.
And he was merged into the independent regiment inexplicably, and it seemed that this was decided by Commander Lu and the girl. He didn't even ask for other people's opinions, let alone that the reorganization of the army required approval from his superiors!
"Don't talk about useless things, Hu Yi, do you agree or not?" Captain Lu ignored the little girl and asked Hu Yi directly this time.
"Yes!" Hu Yi obeyed habitually.
"Okay, let's continue the meeting in the afternoon. We'll leave after breakfast tomorrow. Let's adjourn the meeting now!" Commander Lu made the final decision.
