The boss of Dayawan kept marking on the map and estimating the breaking point of the Japanese's third major raid.
And he was holding a mysterious telegram in his hand.
In a mysterious telegram sent two days ago, no territory could be found at all.
There were only a few big words on the telegram, "The third sweep!"
Originally, the boss just felt that the recent actions of the Japanese were a bit abnormal. After this telegram was sent, the boss immediately became excited and seemed to understand everything!
The devil's plan is now obvious!
"Boss, I didn't expect that in less than a month, the Japs have already reduced the encirclement by nearly 30%. I'm afraid that within a week, the Japs will launch an attack like a scourge!" Chief of Staff Bi said to the map.
The boss had a sullen face and an angry look on his face.
"I really don't understand what these little devils are thinking this time. Do they want to cause both sides to lose by launching the third sweep like this?"
"It's hard for us on the Eighth Route Army, and neither are these little devils!"
"If you fight, then fight! I don't believe he can swallow several of my divisions at once!"
The boss slapped the case and scolded him.
Then the boss and several staff members formulated a breakout plan.
The Japanese were surrounded on three sides. If they wanted to break through, except for a few areas that could rely on favorable terrain to break out, most troops needed to break out to the southwest.
According to everyone's analysis, it is most likely that there are many mountainous areas in the southwest, and the Japanese are not good at fighting mountain warfare. Of course, the possibility of the Japanese ambushing in the southwest cannot be ruled out.
"Boss, it seems that the most beneficial way for us to break out is to break out to the southwest as a whole!" said a lean old staff officer.
The boss nodded, "Yes, that's right. Then I sent a telegram to all units and asked them to start moving to the southwest."
"Also, check for me which army is stationed in the southwest."
"Yes, boss!"
Before he could check, the lean and capable chief of staff took over the words as soon as the boss finished speaking, "Boss, there is no need to check."
"There is only one unit stationed in the southwest, which is the new regiment of the 386th Brigade."
"New group!" The boss' eyes were startled.
"Yes, boss, and that guy's army is now said to have reached more than 2,500 soldiers."
"His base area is also interesting. It is said that Heiyun Village was occupied as their regiment base area." The chief of staff said helplessly.
The boss couldn't laugh or cry for a moment, "That guy Lin Zhong is still the king of the mountain, so that's good."
"Inform me of the 386th Brigade and ask their new regiment to provide cover for the headquarters. As long as the headquarters passes through the southwest mountains, even if Yoshio Shinozuka is very capable, he will not be able to defeat us!"
"yes!"
...
Soon Lin Zhong received news from the brigade headquarters.
Lin Zhong sat on the tiger leather chair in the cottage hall with a bit of a smile.
"Very good. Everything is going according to his plan. It seems that the headquarters is really smart. Just one telegram made everything clear and there is no doubt."
"A handsome man should make a clear decision. We in China are lucky to have such a handsome man!"
The Japs will probably launch a major raid in less than three days. We must quickly gather troops to cover the retreat of the headquarters!
"The monk sends an order, the communication team assembles!"
"Order the first battalion, second battalion, and third battalion to assemble the regiment headquarters as quickly as possible!"
"Arrive at the regiment headquarters within one day. This order is extremely urgent. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished by military law!"
"Yes!" After hearing this, the communications team immediately began to execute the order as if they had been given a shot of blood.
Xie Baoqing and others who were in the hall at this moment were a little confused.
They were all bandits who had been recruited before. They only knew that the new regiment had four battalions. So there were really one, two and three battalions?
"Captain, how are the strength of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd Battalions? Can you transfer me to be the battalion commander?" Xie Baoqing said.
Lin Zhong smiled bitterly, "How is your strength?"
"You'll know when the time comes."
As he said this, Lin Zhong seemed to remember something, and then took the big red invitation card from behind the chair.
It is the wedding invitation of Lao Li and Xiu Qin.
I can't handle this eldest brother's marriage, but I have to express what I need to express.
"Monk, go and take people to the warehouse to carry three mortars and thirty bags of flour to the regiment headquarters of Captain Li. Tell the third brother to give him money."
"By the way, send him a message. Just tell him that things are not going well lately and ask him to be more careful."
The monk nodded and left.
I don’t dare to say too much. If I say too much, I really don’t know what will happen, although the current development has deviated a lot from what was expected.
Logically speaking, Lao Li shouldn't get married so early?
...
The new regiment and battalion are stationed about twenty miles southeast of Heifeng Village.
At this moment, the first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao was leading the team to clean the battlefield and ordered the new regiment's flag to be planted in the camp.
Zhang Dabiao's face was covered with blood. Looking around were almost all the corpses of little Japanese. He couldn't remember how many battles he had fought this month.
In just a few months, his battalion had developed a fierce reputation within a hundred miles nearby, and would attack with swords at the slightest disagreement.
Thanks to Lin Zhong regularly sending equipment and materials to their new regiment, their new regiment can develop so fast.
Zhang Dabiao stood on the high ground and looked down at the surroundings, his heart full of arrogance.
"Damn it, Second Company Commander, go back and send a message to all the little devils nearby."
"Ask who else is dissatisfied, I will teach them how to behave!"
The long-bearded Second Company Commander on the side said helplessly: "Batalion Commander, are we a little too crazy?"
"Are you crazy? Have you ever seen how crazy our regiment commander is? He attacked Wanjia Town at night, fought with Japanese artillery towers, and attacked Qingshan Prisoner of War Camp. Who is not crazier than us?"
The newly arrived second company commander with a long beard is named Ma Er. He is not tall and has a long beard. He is the company commander Zhang Dabiao recruited from the Central Army not long ago. He has never seen what Lin Zhong looks like, regardless of his height. He's not very good, but he's really good at playing with a big sword.
"Battal Commander, is our regimental commander really that greedy?"
"I heard from the brothers in the camp that there were seventeen officers in the company who were sniping Japanese soldiers?"
Ma Er felt that Zhang Dabiao had deliberately tricked the leader of the Shinhwa Troupe into coaxing him to come over.
Zhang Dabiao didn't say anything. He paused and said with a smile, "You will know later."
In his opinion, those who don't understand the group leader will always think what he says is a joke.
Although he now has more than 4,000 people in his hands, he knows that all of this cannot be done without Lin Zhong's help, and he does not dare to have any other thoughts.
If one day Lin Zhong stopped sending supplies to him, he would definitely not be able to support these four thousand people, and most of them would have to be disbanded in less than a month.
Zhang Dabiao looked around and shouted: "Hurry up and clean up the battlefield. We have to go to the Bamajia Town stronghold in the afternoon!"
Ma Er on the side stopped chatting and went to clean the battlefield. Every time he cleaned the battlefield, he could find a lot of good things.
At this moment, suddenly one by one, the messenger soldiers hurried to Zhang Dabiao and stood at attention and saluted!
He said hurriedly: "First battalion commander, the regiment headquarters issued an urgent order, ordering the first battalion to assemble quickly and rush to the regiment headquarters within one day!"
"This order is extremely urgent. Anyone who disobeys the order will be punished by military law!"
Zhang Dabiao was stunned, "The regiment headquarters is gathering urgently?"
"Yes, the regiment leader gave an urgent order to summon the entire team to assemble quickly!" the communications soldier said hurriedly, and you could see the anxiety on his face.
Zhang Dabiao also knew that something was going to happen.
"Corpser, blow the rally call!"
"Batalion Commander, what should I do with these newly seized materials?" Ma Er asked.
"No, no more, order the troops to assemble quickly and rush to Heiyun Village!"
"The regimental commander's order is extremely urgent. There will be plenty of supplies following the regimental commander in the future."
Ma Er has never seen Zhang Dabiao in such a hurry. He really wants to meet Lin Zhong, the battalion commander who can surrender to him.
