In addition to Kong Jie, Ding Wei in the south also received news that Heyuan County had been captured by the Eighth Route Army.
Like Kong Jie, he also insisted that Li Yunlong's independent group had eaten the fat.
However, he was near Yang County and far away from Heyuan County, so he had no idea of sending anyone to attack Li Yunlong's autumn wind.
After all, he was now prospering with the two Type 92 infantry cannons that Yang Yuanshan exchanged with him. He easily demolished all the artillery towers from Yang County to Ping'an County, and the new regiment also expanded to nearly 1,600 men.
It can be said that the army is strong and the horse is strong!
Now that he heard that Li Yunlong had captured Heyuan County, Ding Wei couldn't help but wonder if he should learn from Li Yunlong and capture Yang County.
So he immediately sent a large number of scouts to Yang County to find out the news.
After this inquiry, we found out that the second brigade of the 227th Regiment of the 37th Division stationed in Yang County had been severely damaged by a group of Eighth Route Army soldiers in Fuwan Town.
Not only was an infantry squadron lost, but the battalion commander, Lieutenant Colonel Oga Saburo, was also killed.
The current captain was promoted from the former captain of the 1st Infantry Squadron, Captain Sonoda Kiaki. In order for this guy to be able to legitimately serve as the captain, his rank was promoted to major.
However, the strength of this brigade was not replenished, which made their strength even more tense. They could only send a small team and a battalion of the Locust Alliance Army to garrison Fuwan Town.
Upon hearing this information, Ding Wei was immediately ecstatic and thought to himself: Could it be that this Fuwan Town was beaten by Li Yunlong when he was passing by?
Except for this bitch, no one should have passed by near Yang County recently.
He thought: Although the strength of the Yang County Japs was tight, even if a brigade lost a squadron, there would still be hundreds of people. Relying on the solid city defenses, it would be difficult for him to survive.
But this Fuwan Town is just a piece of fat.
There were dozens of little Japs in total, plus a battalion of the Locust Alliance Army. For his new regiment, it shouldn't take more than two hours to capture them.
The only problem is that the little devils from Yang County come out of the city for reinforcements.
But now Yang County's own troops are tight, with only a few hundred little Japs. If they go out of the city for reinforcements, it shouldn't be a problem to hold them off for a few hours with the same force.
Thinking of this, Ding Wei immediately made up his mind and quickly sent people to investigate the situation in Fuwan Town.
As for him, he personally took people to scout the terrain near Fuwan Town and Yang County to find suitable blocking positions.
After some pre-war preparations, Ding Wei issued the order to attack Fuwan Town one evening.
The new captain of the second brigade of the 227th Regiment of Danyang County, Major Sonoda Muaki, suddenly had a headache when he received a call from Fuwan Town saying that Fuwan Town was attacked by more than one regiment of Tuba Road main forces. As big as a bucket, he couldn't help but scream:
"What's going on with this group of Tubalu, are they keeping an eye on Fuwan Town?
Hit once and hit a second time?
Are they treating our second brigade of the 227th Regiment of the Locust Army as a soft persimmon?
Specifically to catch us bullying?
Baghya Road! "
However, although he was angry, he still did not rush out of the city to support him.
The horrific scene of former captain Oga Saburo leading troops out of the city to rescue Fuwan Town, but being shot to death in cold blood is still vivid in his mind.
The feeling of hot blood splashing on his face was something he would never forget!
Sonoda Muaki didn't want to make the same mistake again.
He quickly sent a report to his commander, Colonel Ueda Fuyama of the 227th Regiment, asking how to handle it.
As these telegrams come and go, more time is wasted.
Over at Fuwan Town, after Ding Wei easily captured Fuwan Town, he was not immediately besieged by reinforcements from the Japs. He couldn't help but be very puzzled and couldn't help but mutter:
"Is this little devil frightened by Li Yunlong's beating?
You don’t even dare to go out of the city to provide support?
Damn it, I’m still taking advantage of Li Yunlong?
When you see that bitch, don't you want to treat him to a drink? "
…
…
At the Independent Regiment Special Agent Battalion, after meeting Kong Jie on the road and knocking on the veterans of the other two companies, Yang Yuanshan led the soldiers in the battalion and marched for another day before finally arriving in the Hougou Village area of Qixia Town.
This area is not the base area of our army. When the people in the village discovered that a large group of people had arrived outside the village, they were all trembling with fear and did not dare to open the door. Some villagers even picked up shotguns, spears and other objects to warn them. stand up.
When Yang Yuanshan saw this situation, he immediately did not enter the village.
Instead, a platoon of soldiers was sent to protect Zhou Xianpei and Xu Shaobai when they entered the village to do work.
He himself called Han Yang, He Yunfu, Li Dahe, Wei Dayong and others to have a meeting in the woods at the entrance of the village.
"Comrades, we have basically reached the defense area designated for us by the regiment leader. From now on, we will operate in this area..."
Yang Yuanshan got straight to the point and told them the general situation.
After he finished speaking, Wei Dayong asked honestly:
"Battal Commander, when we come here, why don't we let the little devils know our names without fighting?"
"I asked you, a monk, how come you are so murderous? Didn't you recite sutras in the temple?"
Yang Yuanshan chuckled.
"I don't know a few words. The master taught me to chant sutras, but I couldn't remember them. In the end, the master said that I had no connection with Buddha."
Wei Dayong scratched his head honestly.
It made everyone laugh.
After that, Yang Yuanshan said seriously to everyone:
"Of course we have to fight, but we need to settle down first and conduct a thorough reconnaissance of the enemy's situation nearby.
Now Hougou Village probably can't accommodate so many of us. I'm going to let each of your companies disperse to garrison in nearby villages. In five days, we'll have a meeting here again to discuss where our first battle will be.
Do you all have questions? "
"no problem!"
"Okay! The first company will go to the Dawan Village area in the north, the second company will go to the Renjialiang area in the west, and the third company will go to the Weijiagou area in the east. The remaining guard company will be with my battalion headquarters. We will follow up here Development in Goucun and Xiaohe Village.
After you three companies arrive at your destination, you will step up your reconnaissance of the enemy and your training, waiting for my call at any time. Do you understand? "
"clear!"
Han Yang, He Yunfu, and Li Dahe agreed in unison.
Seeing that he still had to be with Yang Yuanshan, Wei Dayong couldn't help but feel a little unhappy, and he quickly said with saliva on his face:
“Battal Commander, there are so many people in our security company now, can we just leave a security platoon with the battalion headquarters?
Are other platoons also released for activities? "
Yang Yuanshan thought about it, and now there are more than 2,000 people in the entire spy camp. Even if the three main companies are released, there will still be nearly a thousand people. This is the size of a regiment, and it is indeed too many.
He nodded immediately and said:
"Okay, let Wang Ye stay with a pistol platoon, and you can take the others to Mazui Village for activities!"
"Hey, good!
Don't worry, battalion commander, I will definitely take care of my comrades and I will never cause any trouble for you! "
Wei Dayong looked excited, thinking secretly in his mind that when he arrived at Mazui Village, he must cause trouble for the little devils and second devils nearby and let them know about Grandpa Wei's reputation.
This guy who can't read a map doesn't know that Mazui Village is only 5 kilometers away from here. If he really does something, Yang Yuanshan can kill him in half an hour and teach him a lesson.
