After sending Feng Shuanglin away, Yang Yuanshan finally returned to his battalion headquarters. He was as busy as a top every day.
Just as he was preparing to get a basin of water and wash his face, Wu Jun from the telecommunications room came to report with an embarrassed look on his face:
"Battal Commander, the regiment commander has sent a message asking you to go to the regiment headquarters."
He couldn't help but smile bitterly when he heard this, and thought to himself: Although he knew that this test would be difficult to pass, didn't it come too soon?
Li Yunlong installed a locator on himself?
How else would he know that he was back?
He immediately replied helplessly to Wu Jun:
"Call back to the regiment leader for me, and I'll go to the regiment headquarters tomorrow."
"yes!"
…
A trip to the regiment headquarters would take at least a day or two, and there was no time to waste. Yang Yuanshan had no choice but to find Han Yang, Zhou Xianpei and others and explain:
"The regiment leader just sent a message asking me to go to the regiment headquarters. I'm going to go there early tomorrow morning."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Xianpei suddenly looked solemn.
He didn't need to think about it to know that Yang Yuanshan was about to face a violent storm.
He said quickly:
"Batalion Commander, how about I go with you?"
Yang Yuanshan understood what he meant. As a cadre from the headquarters, Zhou Xianpei had some face with Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang and could help him block the fire.
Even the brigade commander wouldn't make it too difficult for him.
But Yang Yuanshan still shook his head:
"Lao Zhou, no need.
It's my own fault, I'll take it upon myself. "
Listening to their conversation, Han Yang, He Yunfu and others looked at each other.
Originally, they were still excited about picking up so much equipment, but now looking at the situation, something is wrong!
Han Yang asked quickly:
"Battal Commander, aren't you just going to the regiment headquarters?
Why are you talking to the instructor as if you are going to the execution ground? "
"You don't have to worry about this. Just take good care of the camp."
Yang Yuanshan didn't want to explain too much to them.
What if I can pass this level easily?
Give that guy Li Yunlong some benefits, he should help you, right?
Seeing that he didn't say anything, everyone could only nod dullly.
Then Yang Yuanshan said to Zhou Xianpei:
"Old Zhou, this time we sacrificed a group of soldiers in Shuiquan Coal Mine. Please count their names immediately. I want to report to the regiment and declare them martyrs."
"Okay, I'll do the statistics as soon as possible."
This matter can be regarded as a routine matter that Yang Yuanshan pays extra attention to every time after a war. Zhou Xianpei has already done it well.
It is precisely because Yang Yuanshan attaches great importance to the reputation of martyrs that although the proportion of recruits in the secret service battalion is extremely high, it can still rush forward without fear of death every time it comes to war.
Everyone knows that even if they die, the battalion commander will help them apply for the title of martyr from their superiors, and their relatives back home can also be taken care of.
"In addition, it is the ideological work of the recruits.
The miners we recruited this time are relatively complex. Some are prisoners of the Jinsui Army and the Central Army, and some are ordinary people in Jin. You have to do a good job in their ideological work.
Not only must they be familiar with the military regulations and disciplines of our army, but we must also let them know why our Eighth Route Army fights and what they should fight for! "
"Okay. Don't worry, battalion commander."
“Han Yang, I’ll leave the new recruit training to you.
We have enough food and can open it up to feed the soldiers, but we must increase the intensity of training. I would rather see them bleed on the training ground than watch them bleed on the battlefield!
Understand? "
"Yes, I understand."
Han Yang was already very experienced in leading new recruits, so he agreed without any hesitation.
"Fire training, you can use live ammunition!"
Yang Yuanshan added another sentence.
Nowadays, the marksmanship skills of the special agent battalion soldiers are still far behind those of the little devils.
When fighting with the wind, this flaw has little impact, and the firepower is crushing anyway. But once you encounter a brutal battle, fight with the wind, and fight continuously, and the bullets cannot hit the enemy, you will be in big trouble.
Yang Yuanshan knew very well that within half a year at most, the Japs' big sweep would come, and by then, the spy camp would face an extremely cruel test!
…
After explaining to Han Yang, Yang Yuanshan ordered other company commanders:
"When you go to Shuiquan this time, if there are casualties in each company, you will select people to fill up the establishment and form combat effectiveness as soon as possible. I don't need to say more."
"yes!"
"Shuanglin, you can choose the soldiers of the Second Anti-aircraft Gun Company after Han Yang has completed the recruit training with these miners.
But you have to get a group of platoon leaders and squad leaders from your anti-aircraft gun company. Anyway, I don’t have any cadres to give you. "
When Feng Shuanglin heard this, he couldn't help being speechless. The battalion commander gave an empty order and asked him to build a company of 350 people. It was too difficult for him!
But he did not refuse and accepted the order calmly.
"Understood. I will mobilize manpower as soon as possible."
For our army, no task is not difficult, and they are used to difficulties.
"Battalion Commander, what are our special operations companies doing?"
Wei Dayong asked quickly.
"If you have nothing to do, go hunting, training, and artillery drills. People in your special operations company must learn to use various artillery. If there are special needs, you can take over."
Yang Yuanshan dismissed him casually.
Then he ordered Zhao Li:
"Zhao Li, help me prepare 6 Type 97 81mm direct-fire infantry guns and 3 Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft guns, as well as the corresponding shells. I will take them to the regimental commander."
"yes!"
This time in the Yangshugou Valley, a total of 11 81mm mortars and 23 40mm anti-aircraft guns were picked up. Now Yang Yuanshan has to take away 9 of them, and there is no pressure at all.
…
Early the next morning, Yang Yuanshan carried the list of sacrificed soldiers given to him by Zhou Xianpei, led a security company of hundreds of people, rode bicycles, and carried artillery and shells, heading towards Liuling Pass.
Of course, the three Bofors 40mm anti-aircraft guns could only be pulled by mules and walked slowly behind.
Although the artillery weighing more than 3,000 kilograms has gun wheels, it cannot be dragged very fast on the mountain road.
…
After marching for a long time, Yang Yuanshan took the guard squad equipped with MP38 submachine guns to Liuling Pass.
As for the soldiers carrying the artillery behind them, it will probably take at least a day to arrive.
Yang Yuanshan deeply felt that without trucks, it would be almost impossible for our army to get larger artillery in the mountainous areas of Shanxi.
This transportation is too difficult!
…
In Liulingguan Village, the sentries of the Independent Regiment saw the gray military uniforms of Yang Yuanshan and others and did not stop them in advance.
When they approached, the sentry squad leader on duty recognized Yang Yuanshan, the leader, and quickly took the lead in saluting:
"Captain Yang!"
"Hello, comrade, is the regiment leader at the regiment headquarters?"
Yang Yuanshan got out of the car and returned the courtesy and asked.
"exist!"
"Okay, let's go in."
Yang Yuanshan agreed, got on his bicycle, pedaled twice, and entered the village.
When all the sentries saw the shining silver bicycles under them, their eyes showed deep envy.
Recently, the soldiers of the regiment's communications company and reconnaissance company have been riding bicycles to and fro!
The other soldiers wanted to touch the bicycle but had no chance.
Everyone is greedy.
After Yang Yuanshan and others walked away, a young soldier who had just joined the independent regiment couldn't help but ask his squad leader:
"Squad leader, was that from our group just now?
Did you call me 'Battle Commander Yang'? "
"Yes, that's the commander of our regiment's special agent battalion."
"They are all riding bicycles and carrying fancy machine guns. They are really impressive."
The little warrior was envious.
"Humph, what do you know.
The bicycles in our group were given by Battalion Commander Yang.
Their gun, I heard, is called the Mie Mu Pi 38 submachine gun. It fires continuously and beats up the little devils. It's so exciting! "
The squad leader is more envious than the little soldier, he also wants a submachine gun!
The Sanba Gai, which I had regarded as a treasure before, didn't feel good at all compared to other people's guns!
"What?
Did they give us our bicycles?
Are they too rich?
That’s dozens of bicycles! "
The little warrior's eyes widened, a little doubtful of life.
He originally thought that the independent regiment he belonged to was directly under the guard company, and all its members were equipped with 38-gauge guns and a mortar. It was already the best equipment in our army. Unexpectedly, there were even wider equipment now. of!
This is too unscientific!
But then he asked timidly:
"Squad leader, is there any chance for us to be transferred to this special agent camp?
I also want to use that submachine gun and ride a bicycle. "
"Hey, how many days have you been in the army?
Why do you think about such a beautiful thing?
The spy camp has many soldiers, so why are we needed? "
The squad leader patted the little soldier on the forehead.
"Hey! I was just asking.
Squad leader, how many people are there in their camp? There won't be a thousand people, right? "
The little warrior touched his head, smiled innocently, and was very curious.
"Huh, a thousand people?
Your kid's vision is only as big as a sesame seed. "
The monitor said with disdain.
"Monitor, monitor, tell me something!"
The little warrior became more and more curious.
He felt that this spy camp was like a mystery.
"Hey, I heard that there are three to four thousand people in this secret service camp!"
"What? So many people? That's amazing!
This battalion commander Yang is more powerful than the regiment commander! "
The little warrior couldn't close his mouth.
