The situation was urgent, so the New Second Regiment moved very quickly.
Three hours after Kong Jie ordered the entire regiment to dispatch, they annihilated a small Japanese team that was burning, killing and kidnapping in Changguang Village.
As soon as they opened fire, they naturally attracted a large army of little devils.
Facing the large Japanese troops surrounding them from all directions, the soldiers of the New Second Regiment relied on the houses and earthen walls of Changguang Village to block the Japanese attack.
Attracting all their troops here gave Dou Guangjie time to mobilize the villagers in the villages behind to move.
Yamamoto Kazuki couldn't help but be very excited when he saw that his raid had actually attracted the main force of Tubal Road.
Waving his saber wildly, he directed the Locust Army soldiers to attack crazily.
His fifty agents also joined the battlefield under his order. Each of them had accurate marksmanship, causing great damage to the New Second Regiment.
Kong Jie was so anxious that he wished he could order a retreat immediately.
If the fight continues, the new second regiment he has finally formed will be half disabled again.
…
Over in Qixia Town, Yang Yuanshan was ordering the soldiers to step up preparations and prepare to drive to Shuiquan in a few days. Although Na and Ding Wei had agreed to start the war in half a month, the road was not close, so they had to set off in advance. OK.
Unexpectedly, before they set off, they received news from Kong Jie asking for help.
He was naturally very excited when he heard that the Japs actually sent out another brigade from Yuci to raid the villages in Shouxian County.
A large team, isn't this just delivering food to themselves?
Is the little devil drifting away, or does he think Yang Yuanshan can't lift the knife?
He quickly called Han Yang and He Yunfu and arranged:
"The little Japs came out from Yuci City and raided the villages in Shouxian County. Now Commander Kong leads the New Second Regiment to stop them and cover the transfer of the villagers. You go and assemble the team immediately. Let's go to Shouxian County to eat this." Team!
Don't leave the first artillery company this time. Their mountain artillery and cannons are relatively heavy and are inconvenient for a quick march. Just let the second artillery company go.
A brigade of little devils usually only has two Type 92 infantry guns, and the 12 guns of the second artillery company are enough to deal with them!
What's more, each of our infantry companies also has two Type 92 infantry guns and one 60mm mortar. The artillery firepower can crush them. "
"yes!"
Han Yang and He Yunfu were both very excited.
It has been so long since the Battle of Shouxian County, and their respective teams have long since replenished their ranks and regained their strength.
Even many seriously injured soldiers who were injured in the previous battles of Heyuan County and Qixia Town have recovered from their injuries and returned to the company, greatly improving the team's combat effectiveness.
These days, they are gearing up and waiting for war.
Now that I have the opportunity, of course I’m excited.
After arranging them, Yang Yuanshan called the telegraph operator Wu Jun and asked him to send a report to Li Yunlong to report the situation.
Of course he had to actively report this kind of thing, which was not something he took the initiative to make trouble for, so as to cover up for not actively reporting next time.
…
Li Yunlong heard that Kong Jie's Shouxian County had been raided and was in urgent need of support. Of course, he would not stop Yang Yuanshan's actions. After discussing with Zhao Gang, he immediately sent a telegram to express his agreement.
Zhao Gang originally wanted Yang Yuanshan to send a report to the regiment headquarters when the situation was critical, and the regiment headquarters would send Zhang Dabiao's battalion to support him, but he was stopped by Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong waved his hand and said:
"Old Zhao, don't worry.
If Yang Yuanshan can't take down a small group of brats, then he shouldn't be my soldier anymore!
I can't afford to lose this person!
His special agent battalion has nearly 4,000 people and dozens of cannons! "
After hearing what he said, Zhao Gang also felt that it was reasonable, and immediately said nothing more, but hurriedly reported the news to the brigade headquarters.
Li Yunlong, on the other hand, looked over and over on the map, trying to figure out what big plot the little devil had.
He couldn't understand why the little Japs in Yuci dared to come out with a large force to mop up the troops, knowing that our army in northwestern Shanxi was so powerful.
Is their commander a stupid pig or is he arrogant?
Have you forgotten how many brigades Yang Yuanshan destroyed in the past few times?
…
After the brigade headquarters received the telegram sent by Zhao Gang, they quickly responded. The content was only four words, and it was extremely domineering. At first glance, it was the handwriting of the brigade commander——
"Eat it firmly!"
…
When Li Yunlong saw the brigade commander's reply, he immediately grinned and said to Zhao Gang:
"Old Zhao, what the brigade commander said is so damn powerful!"
Zhao Gang never thought about this side of the brigade commander and nodded.
Then he asked:
"Captain, should we also make preparations for transfer?
Having learned from the experience of Shouxian County being raided, I always feel that the Japs will raid us at any time, and there is a high probability that they will not come from Jinyang, but from northern Hebei.
Now it is easy to deal with this brigade in Shouxian County, but if the little Japanese attack us, it may be a brigade or a division, which will be troublesome. "
"Well, what you said makes sense. It's time to prepare.
In this way, I immediately sent scouts to various places to find caves suitable for hoarding supplies. We first scattered and stored the unused supplies in our warehouse so that they could be easily transferred and retrieved nearby.
You informed the logistics comrades that they can start preparing for packing and packing, and take measures to prevent moisture and waterproofing. "
"Okay, I'll go now."
…
At the spy camp, Yang Yuanshan received two telegrams from the regiment one after another, one from Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang agreeing to his request for support, and the other from the regiment headquarters forwarding a reply telegram from the brigade commander.
Seeing those four words on the brigade commander's telegram, Yang Yuanshan suddenly felt that he seemed to have mastered a certain trick——
The trick that will allow him to beat little devils without being criticized in the future!
I couldn't help but be very happy.
He thought to himself: Little devil, little devil, just wait and see. This time, you have stirred up a hornet's nest!
Your hard days will come soon!
After receiving the authorization from his superiors, Yang Yuanshan immediately told Zhou Xianpei to stay behind with the anti-aircraft artillery battery, the first artillery company and other troops directly under the battalion headquarters.
Yang Yuanshan took four infantry companies, the second artillery company and the guard company to Shouxian County.
For the sake of safety, Yang Yuanshan also asked the soldiers of the guard company to carry two Oerlikon 20mm machine guns on two bicycles and set off together.
Before leaving, Wei Dayong, who got the news, rushed out and shouted to Yang Yuanshan:
"Battal Commander, our special operations company also wants to go!"
"Monk, your special operations company has only been back for a few days. You haven't rested yet, so you can stay behind."
Yang Yuanshan waved his hand and refused.
This special operations company has been fighting in Yuci City for nearly a month. The spirit and energy of the soldiers have reached their limit. They have only rested for a few days and it is impossible to fully return to their full strength.
"Battal Commander, we have had enough rest. All the soldiers in the company have asked me to go out to fight!
If you don't agree, I won't be the commander of the special operations company! "
Wei Dayong's attitude was firm.
Seeing him like this, Yang Yuanshan had no choice but to say:
"Okay then. You can lead the special operations company to follow."
When Wei Dayong heard this, he immediately grinned and said excitedly:
"Yes, battalion commander, I'm going to call someone right now!"
After saying that, he ran away quickly.
Then Yang Yuanshan said to the guard company commander Wang Ye:
"Wang Ye, let Fu Xiaojun and his reconnaissance platoon follow me, and you lead the rest of the guard company to stay behind.
We had a conflict with the 358th Regiment last time. I'm worried that Chu Yunfei will cause trouble. You must strengthen your vigilance in the north and resolutely defend Qixia Town. "
Fu Xiaojun is the platoon leader of the reconnaissance platoon of the guard company.
Seeing that his opportunity to go on the battlefield was snatched away by Wei Dayong again, Wang Ye suddenly looked like a bitter gourd and complained:
"Battal Commander, you can't always bully honest people?
How long has it been since our security company caught a fight?
You are too partial to the special operations company!
I'm not convinced! "
Originally, Wang Ye, as a soldier who later joined the secret service battalion and was Wei Dayong's deputy company commander before, did not want to compete with Wei Dayong for tasks, but now, he saw that the soldiers in the guard company looked at him, the company commander, with disappointment. , he also had to stand up.
Otherwise, we won’t be able to lead this team in the future.
In response to Wang Ye's complaint, Yang Yuanshan smiled and said:
"Why didn't you say anything when the monk was here just now?
If you don't dare to fight him in person, then you deserve to fight without a fight! "
A combat-effective unit, whether a soldier or an officer, must be a roaring tough guy.
Therefore, Yang Yuanshan also hopes that his spy battalion can be shaped into such a unit.
Firepower is certainly combat effectiveness, but morale, fighting will and fighting spirit are the stronger combat effectiveness!
More than ten years later, the war on the peninsula fully demonstrated this point.
After hearing what Yang Yuanshan said, Wang Ye suddenly looked ashamed, and then gritted his teeth and said:
"Battal Commander, if you say that, I will kill you next time.
Although the monk's Vajra Legs are powerful, I, Wang Ye, am not just for a living! "
"Okay! Then I'll wait and see!
Now, execute the order!
I have left Qixia Town to you, Shuanglin, Lao Zhou and you guys. If something goes wrong in Qixia Town when I come back, I will punish you severely! "
"Yes! Promise to complete the mission!"
…
After some planning and arrangement, Yang Yuanshan finally set off with six companies and a team of nearly 2,000 people.
