During the War of Resistance Against Japan: After being scattered at Cangyunling, he brought back a

All of this felt incredibly strange to him!

"I'd say you, Kong Jie, are just worrying about nothing!"

"He's talking nonsense!"

"But is that Sakata Brigade real or something?" Li Yunlong asked, frowning.

"Old Li! This is absolutely true!"

"Neither the Eighth Route Army nor the Jin-Sui Army!"

"Moreover, it's said that Chu Yunfei experienced it firsthand, so perhaps you could ask him about it this time!" Kong Jie said.

"Yes! When I see Chu Yunfei, I must ask him myself!"

"Damn it, I've only been working at the clothing factory for a month and a half! Where did all these tough guys come from!" Li Yunlong couldn't help but mutter.

Damn it, the guerrillas crushed the Sakata Regiment!

Originally, Li Yunlong and the New First Regiment were very famous! After all, they had broken through three lines of defense of the Sakata Regiment!

But now when people mention the Sakata United, they always think of that guerrilla team!

Moreover, in comparison, his regular army was completely outmatched by the guerrillas!

After all, one was completely annihilated while the other was only damaged; they are not comparable at all!

"And Old Kong!"

"You son of a bitch, don't confess to those bandits if you can avoid it!"

"It's useless!"

Li Yunlong then gave instructions.

As for the Black Wind Stronghold that Lao Kong mentioned, he knew that place. It was a band of bandits who ruled the mountain. The reason they were still there was because Xie Baoqing still had some humanity; otherwise, they would have been wiped out long ago!

Expecting those bandits to fight the Japanese is nothing short of wishful thinking!

"Old Li! Speaking of bandits!"

"Did you know that our 386th Brigade has just established a new Third Regiment?" Kong Jie suddenly remembered and asked.

"The New Third Regiment?"

"Correct!"

"It's said that his men are all bandits!"

"I'm not saying this out loud! The boss is confused! What kind of combat effectiveness does this kind of organization have?"

"If word gets out, it will be a disgrace to our Eighth Route Army!" Kong Jie was about to speak when Li Yunlong waved his hand to interrupt him.

"You can't say that!"

"Our Eighth Route Army suffered heavy losses last time! We are severely lacking in manpower!"

"Even though they're bandits, they can still fight the Japanese!" Kong Jie shook his head helplessly.

They fought fiercely, but recruiting soldiers became difficult!

After all, the Eighth Route Army's food and weaponry were terrible! Even ordinary people need to eat!

This was probably the reason why they recruited this group of bandits.

"Old Kong! You must remember this!"

"Warfare is never about having a large number of people, it's about having elite troops!"

"I'd rather have ten elite soldiers than a hundred bandits!"

Li Yunlong shook his head.

He knew that Lao Kong was anxious, after all, the entire Independent Regiment only had about four hundred people, and this was a whole regiment!

But trying to take advantage of bandits will only result in losing more than you gain!

"Old Li!"

"okay!"

"Old Kong, think about it carefully!"

"It's getting late here!"

"Zhang Dabiao!"

He then shouted to Zhang Dabiao, who was standing to the side.

"Here I am, Commander!"

"set off!"

"Yes!"

Zhang Dabiao suddenly stood at attention.

……

Taiyuan.

The capital of Shanxi Province.

Located in the heart of Shanxi Province, it connects to the North China Plain to the north and the central hinterland to the south.

With its superior transportation location and abundant resources, it was a vital town in the north and a strategic location fought over by military strategists.

But at this point, Taiyuan was clearly no match for them.

It was midday, and the huge city of Taiyuan was filled with shouts and hawkers' cries, with rows of stalls lining the roads!

The businesses they run are diverse and full of everyday life.

"Waiter! Bring me a roast chicken!"

"A bottle of soju!"

"Three bowls of rice!" Three men dressed in black and wearing black hats were sitting at a table by the roadside; they were Xie Jinyuan and his two companions.

"Captain!"

"Who can eat just one serving of roast chicken?!"

The monk muttered.

He had been traveling all night without sleeping and was hungry the whole time!

"Fuck you!"

"And another pound of braised beef, and half a roast duck!"

Then Xie Jinyuan glared at the monk and said.

"Got it!"

"Gentlemen! Please wait a moment!"

The waiter smiled and spoke repeatedly.

"Hehe! Commander!"

"You're still the best!" the monk chuckled.

"Half of the roast duck was reserved for Commissar Zhao!"

"Remember to pack it up later!"

Xie Jinyuan said irritably.

"Commander! Don't worry!"

"I certainly won't let Zhao Zhengwei go hungry!" the monk quickly assured him.

"Captain!"

"We've found out everything!"

"The Juxianlou restaurant is heavily guarded at night. Most of the guards from Taiyuan City have been mobilized here. It'll be difficult to get in without an invitation!"

As soon as the waiter left, Wu Baili quickly leaned closer and whispered.

"Oh!"

"If it's too difficult to get in, then we won't go in!" Xie Jinyuan said, picking up a plate of peanuts that had been served earlier and using chopsticks to eat them.

"what?"

"Commander! Aren't we supposed to be going into Juxianlou?" Wu Baili was completely bewildered.

"Who told you I was going to Juxianlou?"

"Yamamoto will not appear at Juxianlou!"

Xie Jinyuan spoke with a meaningful expression.

"Commander! What brings us here?"

"Fishing in troubled waters!"
