southwest direction.
Li Heshui never dreamed that he would encounter the Eighth Route Army in the valley of the friendly defense zone.
The independent regiment has naturally been heard of. As for which independent regiment it is, I am still confused. There must be at least seven or eight independent regiments in the Eighth Route Army.
I once went to northern Shaanxi to study, and I was still a little curious about the strange organization of nine battalions in an independent regiment.
Follow Dirty Face to see the ninth battalion commander.
After walking along the valley for several miles, wading through bushes and weeds, I first saw a group of soldiers washing clothes by the stream. Among them was a little Hongying who lowered his head and washed the clothes himself.
Somewhat surprised, he still happily saluted the warrior who was washing clothes.
Dirty Face went upstream to the stream and wiped a few handfuls of water on his face. His face was still dirty.
Li Heshui on the bank stopped, looked at the soldiers in the stream, and then looked at the... machine guns the soldiers had set up in the open space.
I counted, six!
It seems that it is a machine gun platoon!
I simply ignored the two eye-catching 38 covers next to them.
Suddenly, a loud shout came out from the crowd who were doing laundry: "Who is that...which department are you from?"
Li Heshui turned his head and looked at the crowd.
The little girl came ashore barefoot, stepped on a pile of dry clothes to wipe her feet, then bent down to put on socks and overshoes, and then hung up the exquisite armed belt.
The small military uniform stretches out the small chest, and the pigtails are tied unruly. After putting on the military cap with a hole in it, the pigtails come out of the hole. It looks as weird as you want.
Li Heshui asked subconsciously: "Are you calling me?"
Xiao Hongying walked up to Li Heshui and looked him up and down: "The guerrillas nearby?"
Li Heshui quickly introduced himself: "Li Heshui, Lingchuan County, Liyi District, armed work captain and chairman of the Lingchuan branch of the Sacrifice League..."
"Captain of the Armed Task Force... the Sacrifice League?" Xiao Hongying was stunned for a moment. She heard the political commissar uncle mention the Sacrifice League, Tainan's famous non-governmental anti-Japanese team, which was established earlier than the Independence Regiment!
When meeting with Gao Yidao students, I didn't even get a chance to introduce him to the outside world. This is the first time I have officially announced my position to the outside world, and my small chest is very high. He directly stretched out his hand: "Chang Hongying, the reconnaissance platoon leader of the Ninth Battalion of the Independent Regiment..."
A little girl becomes a reconnaissance platoon leader? Li Heshui didn't believe it at all.
He didn't know the details of this naughty boy who was washing clothes, and secretly guessed that maybe he was the leader of the Children's League who was watching out, but that was wrong... Except for the smallest position among the members of the Children's League, he was the leader, and this one was just a leader. Platoon commander...how miserable is he?
Even though Li Heshui was very surprised, he still smiled heartily: "Hello, nice to meet you!"
The other party is the captain of the armed work team and the president of the Sacrifice Alliance. The ninth battalion is currently short of people... Xiao Hongying is in a good mood and says in a clear voice: "Hey, what are you doing here?"
"This time the Japanese army launched a large-scale sweep and the friendly forces were defeated. Our superiors ordered us to return to this area. I didn't expect you to come so soon!"
Xiao Hongying immediately greeted Dirty Face: "Hurry up and tell the mule to set up the pot to stew meat..."
Dirty Face was stunned for a moment: "It's not a good idea to light a fire in broad daylight, right?"
"Go if you are told to go..."
"Can it be baked?"
"It's up to you..."
Xiao Hongying enthusiastically led Li Heshui to find Hu Yi.
Armed work captain, battalion level, but in Xiao Hongying's eyes... he should be at the same level as himself, although he is only the platoon leader for the time being.
As the two chatted all the way, Li Heshui lost his composure and gradually realized that the little girl's address to the commander of the ninth battalion seemed a little disrespectful. Just as he was about to remind him, he came to Hu Yi: "Fox... we have a guest. ..."
There's a mule ahead, and here's a fox...
It seems that the soldiers of the Ninth Battalion like to give nicknames.
Since the little girl introduced me, I couldn't be rude and extended my hand to introduce me: "Lingchuan..."
Hu Yi, whose arms were hanging on his chest, saw the little girl leading an armed work team leader and struggled to get up: "Hu Yi, commander of the ninth battalion of the Independent Regiment..."
Unexpectedly, the "fox" in front of him was the commander of the ninth battalion. Li Heshui was startled and his body swayed...if he didn't have the foundation of Kung Fu, he would definitely fall.
Hu Yi looked at Li Heshui with some confusion: "Have you been active in this area?"
Li Heshui, who looked away, covered up his embarrassment: "My hometown is in this area. I just came back after the retreat in the New Year..."
He spoke very straightforwardly, without any politeness, and spoke clearly in two sentences. Hu Yi nodded: "You haven't seen District Chief He and the others?"
Li Heshui's eyes lit up: "You mean...He Dawu, the district chief of Pingshun County? Are they here too?"
Hu Yi nodded: "Yes, we are planning to return to the station eastward..."
"Can you guys stay for now?"
"stay?"
"That's right, I just came back not long ago, and I have organized a lot of people, but there is a lack of experienced instructors..."
"I'm afraid not...we will leave in two days..." Hu Yi shook his head.
The defeat of the friendly army was already expected. As long as the friendly army division went south, it would be a matter of resolution.
He originally thought he could communicate with the old troops, but they didn't give him this opportunity at all.
The time for the opening of Kangda University has passed, and now I don’t even know where the school is.
Li Heshui had a different idea. The Japs were raiding the mountains on a large scale. If the Ninth Battalion could be invited to attack the Japs' logistics and transportation teams, the Japs in the mountains would definitely be deprived of food.
Although he had recruited a team of more than a hundred people, unfortunately he lacked guns and ammunition and was unable to pose a threat to the hordes of Japanese logistics teams.
Now that we have met the well-equipped Ninth Battalion, we have to convince them to do this favor!
However, as soon as the words came out of his mouth, Battalion Commander Hu directly refused.
However, the platoon leader Hongying next to him didn't seem to pay attention to the conversation between the two parties at all, and led Li Heshui to continue walking towards the foot of the mountain.
When Hu Yi saw Captain Li being led by Xiao Hongying, he knew what Xiao Jiujiu was feeling in her heart without having to guess, so he didn't bother to ask.
Li Heshui couldn't help but feel a little angry. He was still at the battalion level because he was so stupid. Battalion Commander Hu continued to lie down and sleep without saying a few words to him. What did he mean?
I sent a platoon leader from the Children's League to accompany me... This is too much of a show, isn't it?
Along the way, I saw that there were not many soldiers from the Ninth Battalion, but there were machine guns everywhere. I looked up at the sky.
If it weren't for the fact that the surrounding mountains were still intact, I really doubted that I was in the division arsenal...
My heart began to feel alive again.
"Hey... I want to ask you something?"
"What did you say?" Li Heshui came back to his senses.
"How many of you are there?"
Li Heshui hesitated for a moment: "It's still in the development stage, there should be more than 300 people..."
He didn't lie. There were only three members of the armed task force, so of course the people from the Sacrifice League had to be counted.
Of course the militiamen carrying the spears also have to be counted.
Xiao Hongying snatched two pieces of wild boar meat skewered from the branches in Dirty Face's hands and handed them to Li Heshui's boat. She continued to chat enthusiastically with Li Heshui while biting them.
Li Heshui gradually forgot about Camp Commander Hu.
Start describing the situation you are currently facing.
Who is Xiao Hongying?
He immediately guessed Li Heshui's true thoughts: "Hey, you are short of guns and ammunition, and you want us to help fight the Japanese logistics team?"
"That's right..." Li Heshui didn't hide it. Although the wild boar meat in his hand was a little hard, he hadn't experienced this kind of eating meat in many years.
"Tell me, tell me the specific situation of the Japanese baggage train..."
"We had a fight two days ago, but unfortunately we only had more than thirty guns. The Japanese and puppet troops were outnumbered, so we couldn't fight..."
"How many people are there in the baggage train?"
"One or two squads of guard troops, more than a hundred puppet troops, plus two to three hundred civilians..."
"What? One or two squads... of guardsmen, more than thirty?" Xiao Hongying immediately opened her eyes wide.
"What, are you scared?" Li Heshui sighed.
