The atmosphere in the headquarters was a bit dull, and everyone was thinking about how to fight the next battle.
There have been a lot of overt and covert mobilizations in the army recently, and any commander with a knack knows that big moves are coming soon.
After a while, Yue Hong said, "You have to give it a try. I will draft a telegram later and let my superiors coordinate."
"Okay, let's trouble Political Commissar Yue." Ye Zhiqiu did not show off or refuse this time. He was the leader, not a reckless man. He would not refuse anything that was beneficial to the New Second Regiment.
In the Eighth Route Army, it was very embarrassing to ask for help from the Western Shanxi Army. Although this request for help did not require the other party to shoot, it was still a request for help.
Yue Hong could take the initiative to take on this embarrassing matter, and Ye Zhiqiu also had a lot less objections to him: "My words were harsh just now, and I apologize to you."
Yue Hong smiled and waved his hand, "It's okay, this is good. If you are friendly with me, I won't get used to it. We will be partners for a long time in the future, and we need to get to know each other better, so as to ensure that we can make a good revolution. Work."
After chatting for a while, Ye Zhiqiu brought the topic back to the map again, "After daybreak, the first and second battalions will seize the time to strengthen their positions."
"Yes!" The two battalion commanders accepted the order.
He found half a cigarette butt from the ashtray, lit it, and took a puff. Ye Zhiqiu continued to assign tasks: "Political Commissar Yue is responsible for transporting supplies. After transporting all the supplies across the river, you can evacuate to the rear with the Da Nianzi fellows. "
When Yue Hong heard this, he immediately quit. Although he was a political commissar, the mission was obviously to prevent him from participating in the battle. "Captain Ye, you are wrong. I am also the political commissar of the New Second Regiment. You... The order obviously doesn’t want me to participate in the battle.”
"Who said you won't be allowed to participate in the battle? If you make arrangements with me, you will come back and you will probably be able to clean up the battlefield in time." Ye Zhiqiu smiled and patted Yue Hong on the shoulder.
"Yes! Make sure to complete the mission." He is a political commissar and is on the same level as Ye Zhiqiu, but he still has to obey Ye Zhiqiu's combat mission, but he counts the time and should still be able to participate in the battle when he comes back.
"Don't have any objections. Judging from the current situation, the Japanese will not attack so quickly. If you act quickly, you can still catch up with the battle. Oh, by the way, remember to bring us some souvenirs when you come back. .”
"Okay, no problem." Yue Hong replied with a smile.
He also knew that the souvenirs Qiu mentioned were ammunition supplies.
At the same time, he also understood that the mission given to him by Ye Zhiqiu was based on time, and when he came back, he should be running out of ammunition.
After reviewing it in my mind, I still didn't know enough about Ye Zhiqiu.
After Yue Hong's tasks were arranged, Ye Zhiqiu continued, "After Political Commissar Yue leaves, let the engineers form a squad and deploy some new soldiers to seal all the tunnel entrances in the village."
"Yes!" Li Mingchang accepted the order.
"There are also several tunnel exits outside the village that are also blocked."
"Are they all sealed?" Li Mingchang asked.
Ye Zhiqiu thought for a moment and said, "Just leave one exit in the southeast direction, but it must be hidden well."
"yes!"
"It must be sealed. Our superiors asked us to study tunnel warfare, but the tunnel here in Da Nianzi has been dug, so we have to be just in case and not leave this clue to the devils." Ye Zhiqiu explained his purpose of blocking the tunnel. .
This order was issued by Ye Zhiqiu with this point in mind, because only the Japs who lost Yawu could occupy Da Nianzi.
After a pause to let everyone digest it, he pointed at the map and said, "Here, here, and here, place an extra hidden sentry."
Yue Hong saw that the places pointed by Ye Zhiqiu were all along the Laoba River, and he immediately understood Ye Zhiqiu's intention.
"Are you afraid that the Japanese will launch a sneak attack again?"
"Yes, it's summer now, and the water level of the Laoba River has risen. I'm afraid they will sneak up from the upper reaches. Last time, Yamamoto sneak attacked the headquarters of the new regiment. Even though he was well prepared, he still let him escape. Handover At that time, Lao Ding specially reminded me that Yamamoto likes to carry out sneak attacks, so we have to arrange a few more sentries to guard against it, after all, we don’t have detailed intelligence this time."
"But Yamamoto has become much more honest recently. I heard that he also opened a cement factory." Yue Hong said.
"This person is not simple. He is not only a bad guy in the war, but he is also very good at production."
Without continuing to talk about the cement factory, Ye Zhiqiu continued to assign tasks.
Since Kurosawa had fought against the new group once, he left a very detailed record of his opponent Ding Wei. Ye Zhiqiu also made detailed arrangements based on this note.
He reached out and touched the empty cigarette box, and before he knew it, a box of cigarettes had been smoked out.
Ye Zhiqiu let out a long breath, "That's all." He looked at the pale white window, "It's dawn."
.
The Japs have very good self-discipline. Although they had a small bonfire party organized by Xu San last night, they still got up early today and ran to practice assassination.
As for the puppet army, forget about training. It's a good thing if they can stay out of bed.
Xu San didn't sleep all night. After contacting Lian Wushang, he kept staring at Fan Ji, hoping to find a breakthrough from her.
Unfortunately, no useful information was obtained from Fan Ji.
After early morning, Xu San received news from Lian Wushang. He had now passed Qinghu Ridge, and had also discovered the clues left by the Japanese and was currently following the clues.
Not good news!
Xu San even thought about it, and then directly told Lian Wushang to give up tracking the Shengu United Team for the time being, and turn to the direction of Shangkanzi to find the headquarters of the New Second Regiment. He knew that the headquarters of the New Second Regiment was in Dadianzi before, and now let him Lian Wushang went to try it out. If he couldn't find it, he could still send this information out, so that he could get the cooperation of the reconnaissance troops of the New Second Regiment.
Turning off the walkie-talkie, Xu San found He Yong and borrowed the combat map to take a look.
He felt that this sneaky interleaving tactic was so similar to Yamamoto's?
But this is a brigade, with four infantry squadrons and a heavy machine gun squadron under its jurisdiction. There are more than a thousand people. How can they pass through the defense zone of Qinghuling silently?
Could it be that these more than a thousand people have the skills of a special forces team?
Shaking his head, Xu San thought it was impossible.
"Where are the scouts?" Xu San asked.
"The scouts were sent out a long time ago, and they will be back soon after counting the time. What, brother, do you see any clues about what's coming?"
"The Japs are going to attack the duck dock, so we have to fire quickly to avoid running late and being used as cannon fodder."
"How did you know?" He Yong asked.
"Wait for news from the scouts. I hope my judgment is wrong." Xu San said with a serious expression.
About half an hour later, the scouts sent news that the Kamiya unit had disappeared. Judging from the traces, it seemed to have moved north.
North?
This information was contrary to the information Lian Wushang had sent, but Xu San believed Lian Wushang because he had already visited Qinghu Ridge.
And the Japanese are moving north, that is a deliberate illusion!
This tactic looks more and more like Yamamoto's handiwork.
The new second group is in trouble!
