Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Kong Jie said angrily, "Li Yunlong, do you think I didn't want to? I heard that the Japanese had reached Yixiantian, and that they had a battalion of troops. I immediately led a battalion to rush to Yixiantian, without even drinking a sip of water on the way. Who knew that you, Li Yunlong, would be so quick and easily take out a battalion of Japanese soldiers!"

After he finished speaking, Kong Jie was stunned for a moment, then looked at Li Yunlong in surprise: "Li Yunlong, are you hiding some secret from me? A battalion of elite Japanese soldiers, four or five hundred people, and your New 1st Regiment was able to deal with them so quickly?"

Seeing Kong Jie finally take the bait, Li Yunlong immediately laughed and said, "There's no secret. I just used some new training methods every day, and the results are pretty good."

This immediately piqued Kong Jie's curiosity. He stopped caring about the radio station and instead moved closer to Li Yunlong. "Tell me, what kind of training method do you use? Come on, don't hide it."

After hearing this, Li Yunlong looked at Kong Jie for a while and said, "Kong Erlangzi, I've never heard of someone asking for help with your attitude. Not only did you not bring any gifts, but you also yelled at me. No, no!"

After saying this, Li Yunlong waved his hand and turned his back.

"you!"

Kong Jie was so angry at Li Yunlong's attitude that he almost jumped up on the spot, but looking at Li Yunlong's expression, he gritted his teeth and said, "Okay, okay, it was my bad attitude before. I apologize to you. Can you tell me what method you used?"

Li Yunlong took out a few pieces of paper from his pocket, on which were written: "New 1st Regiment Combat Unit Conventional Training Manual."

When Kong Jie saw this, he immediately reached out to snatch it without hesitation, but Li Yunlong dodged it.

"want to?"

Kong Jie clapped his hands and said, "I'm just curious."

"Then just be curious."

After he finished speaking, he was about to put the money into his pocket. When Kong Jie saw this, he immediately understood what Li Yunlong was going to do. They were old comrades, so how could he not understand what his old comrade wanted to do?

"Tell me, Li Yunlong, what do you want this time?"

"Hehehe, this is what you said, I didn't ask for it."

Kong Jie rolled his eyes at Li Yunlong and waited for him to speak. Li Yunlong thought for a moment and said, "How about this, I don't want your independent regiment's equipment. I remember your independent regiment seized a lot of gasoline last year. Give them to me. Oh, and those gasoline cans, don't use them to clean them or fill them with water. Give them to me. I can use them!"

Kong Jie listened to Li Yunlong's words and asked in disbelief, "That's all?"

"What are you thinking about? I also need two people. One is called Zhang Qiang and the other is called Liu Daniu. Give them to me!"

"You kid wants people again, you think I'm your independent regiment..."

Before Kong Jie finished speaking, Li Yunlong said, "Hey, there is a three-three system infantry training program in it, as well as a new physical training method. If it weren't for this training method, my New 1st Regiment wouldn't be able to defeat the Sakata Regiment head-on and wipe out the entire Yamazaki Battalion in less than an hour!"

"For you, for you, for you, this is the last time!"

After Kong Jie finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and motioned Li Yunlong to give him the things. Li Yunlong said, "Send the people over first. I will come to pick up the things in two days."

Kong Jie left the headquarters of the New 1st Regiment with a gloomy face and found his own troops. He called the two people Li Yunlong mentioned over and also carefully inquired about the two people's specialties. After asking, his face became ugly again.

Kong Jie had a general understanding of the entire Battle of Yixiantian. He knew that Li Yunlong had newly established a sniper squad and a grenade platoon, which made great contributions in this battle. In particular, a man named Shunzi in the sniper squad killed the captain of the Yamazaki Battalion with one shot.

Shunzi was a sharpshooter trained under Xizi, and Xizi was a member of the independent regiment that Li Yunlong had exchanged weapons for more than a month ago.

The man named Zhang Qiang is Xizi's fellow villager. He has also learned shooting skills from Xizi for more than two years and his marksmanship is very good. The man named Liu Daniu does not seem to have any special skills.

Kong Jie didn't know, but Li Yunlong knew. This was the person recommended to Li Yunlong by Sun Desheng. He was also a member of the Northwest Army and had first-class riding skills. The two met in the independent regiment after joining the Eighth Route Army. It's just that the two were not in the same battalion on weekdays and did not communicate much.

"I brought you something. You better not lie to me, or I'll go find the boss and ask for justice!"

After Kong Jie brought the person here reluctantly, he also warned Li Yunlong.

Chapter 30 Yan Laoxi's shock

"Don't worry, Kong Erlangzi. We're close friends, and I can't lie to anyone but you. But listen carefully, the training is quite intense. I suggest you first find a company of soldiers to conduct targeted training, see the results, and then decide on the future arrangements!"

"Ok!"

Kong Jie did not refute, but picked up the book and looked through it carefully. They were all veterans who had climbed up from the bottom. After reading for a while, he realized that the content of the book was not made up by Li Yunlong. It can indeed improve combat effectiveness, but the physical energy consumption during the training process is also very huge. The independent regiment cannot currently support such high-intensity training for the entire regiment.

Li Yunlong did not fool Kong Jie. These methods were indeed being used by the New 1st Regiment. However, not only Kong Jie had them, but the brigade commander also took a copy with him when he left.

The news of the annihilation of the Yamazaki Battalion soon reached Taiyuan City, shocking Kazuo Shinozuka greatly.

The destruction of a battalion was not a big deal for the commander-in-chief of the Japanese First Army, Kazuo Shinozuka. After all, the First Army had three divisions, two mixed brigades and more than 100,000 puppet troops, totaling nearly 200,000 people.

The Yamazaki Battalion had only about 500 people, and this loss was nothing to the First Army. What really concerned Kazuo Shinozuka was that the Yamazaki Battalion sent a telegram to the regiment and encountered the enemy, and then sent the last telegram saying that the breakout failed and the entire battalion was ready to die, with only half an hour in between.

"Have you found out which unit it is?"

Shinozuka Kazuo's staff shook his head and said, "We don't know which unit engaged the Yamazaki Battalion yet, but we should have news soon."

Just as he finished speaking, a messenger walked in: "Report, General, our intelligence personnel have cracked the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army's telegram, confirming that the unit fighting the Yamazaki Battalion at Yixiantian is the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army!"

After saying this, he handed the telegram in his hand to Kazuo Shinozuka.

"New group?"

Kazuo Shinozuka couldn't help but frown. The name of the Shinichi Group had appeared in Kazuo Shinozuka's ears quite frequently recently.

After quickly reading the telegram, he narrowed his eyes slightly: "It's this new regiment again, but we don't even know how many people they have, let alone their weapon configuration!"

As he spoke, he looked at all the staff officers around him. They immediately lowered their heads and said, "General, please rest assured. We will do everything we can to obtain more information about the New 1st Regiment."

"I need a plan, a plan to completely wipe out the New 1st Regiment. They've already made the First Army lose face. I need to completely wipe them out so that I can restore the First Army's lost face!"

"Hayi!"

After the staff officer left, Shinozuka Kazuo looked at the telegram in his hand again and muttered to himself, "Yamamoto-kun, this new regiment has made a name for itself. Now it all depends on your performance!"

Within the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, this telegram, which had been deciphered by the Japanese, also caused an uproar.

Yan Laoxi looked at the contents of the telegram and slammed the table vigorously. He looked at his men present and said, "What are you doing? The Eighth Route Army wiped out a battalion of Japanese soldiers before. You said that the Eighth Route Army took advantage of you fighting the main force of the Japanese soldiers and ambushed their logistics troops. You can do it too!"

"The Shinichi Regiment killed Sakata Nobutsu. They took on the Japanese elite regiment with just one regiment and won. You call it luck!"

As he spoke, he slammed the telegram on the table: "Now? This new regiment ambushed a battalion of the Japanese with the strength of an entire regiment, an elite infantry battalion, and wiped them out in less than an hour!"

"Look at you guys. An entire division was chased by a battalion of the Japanese. We lost three counties in a row. And you, an entire brigade was almost wiped out by two battalions of the Japanese!"

"I gave you food and weapons, but you became a bunch of trash!"

All the people under Yan Laoxi stood on both sides of the table with their heads down and trembling, not daring to look at the angry Yan Laoxi.

"Sir, perhaps this is a fake battle report, deliberately spread by the Eighth Route Army in order to obtain supplies from Chongqing. Not to mention the Eighth Route Army, even the principal's direct German-equipped troops would not be able to completely wipe out a battalion of Japanese troops in an hour!"

Someone whispered a few sophistry words, and as soon as he finished speaking, a teacup was thrown over.

"Still looking for excuses. The 357th Regiment heard the gunshots when they rushed over to investigate. The battle was almost over when they rushed over to investigate. Are you saying that the people in the 357th Regiment lied?"

"I think you won't give up until you see the Yellow River!"

After Yan Laoxi finished speaking, he paced back and forth. His situation was rather bad now. Although he still held the title of commander-in-chief of the Second War Zone, after the fall of Taiyuan, Yan Laoxi's status within the National Army had plummeted.

Moreover, he has suffered a series of defeats recently and has now hidden in the northern Shanxi region. However, the Eighth Route Army's base is constantly expanding, while the area he controls is shrinking. What's even more terrible is that the Kuomintang troops have also arrived in Shanxi.

The telegram Mr. Jiang sent him made it very clear that if he could not defend Jin, Mr. Jiang's direct troops would take over the current territory. Yan Laoxi knew very well that his troops and his territory were the foundation. If he continued to lose the battle, his troops and territory would probably be taken away by Mr. Jiang.

"We must win in order to save the current situation!"

Now Yan Laoxi knew very well that if the situation continued to deteriorate and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army continued to suffer defeats, then the more than 100,000 national army troops in Zhongtiao Mountain would definitely take over his territory, for the reason of joint defense.

Yan Laoxi looked around and said, "I've decided to send an observation group to study and exchange ideas with the Eighth Route Army. Each of you must take this seriously. Send someone out to study hard, and after they return, carefully analyze and learn the Eighth Route Army's tactics. Anyone who dares to give up on this matter will be killed!"

"Sir, we do this..."

Before he finished speaking, the division commander shut up. He had noticed Yan Laoxi's unfriendly attitude and immediately changed his tone, saying, "Don't worry, sir. After I return, I will immediately arrange for the regimental officers of the main force to go to the Eighth Route Army base to learn from their experience!"

Only then did Yan Laoxi let go of the division commander in front of him, and then turned his gaze to the others.

The anger was finally calmed down after everyone promised to send regimental-level cadres from the main force to study.

"Xingru, you're leading the team this time. If anyone isn't serious during the conversation, or tries to cause trouble, just shoot them!"

Yan Xishan stood up and gave instructions to his trusted confidant Yang Xingru. As soon as these words came out, the generals who had some thoughts just now immediately thought about who should be sent to exchange and learn.

Chapter 31 Chu Yunfei visits, Li Yunlong goes on a blind date

"Going to the Eighth Route Army to study?"

At the headquarters of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, Chu Yunfei was handling affairs as usual. The 358th Regiment was the main regiment among the main divisions of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. There were more than 3,000 people in one regiment, and it also had an artillery battalion.

Chu Yunfei himself is also a talent favored by Yan Laoxi. He is a student of the fifth class of the Whampoa Military Academy under Mr. Jiang. The material supplies are also very abundant. The treatment of a regiment can almost catch up with the organization of some brigades.

"Commander, this is the decision Commander Yan made personally at today's meeting. He also asked Deputy Commander Yang to lead the team. We have to go."

Staff Officer Fang, who was wearing glasses, reminded Chu Yunfei in a low voice.

"Not going? I've wanted to go for a long time, but I just never had the chance. However, I'm only going to one place, that is the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. I want to see how this New Regiment managed to wipe out an elite battalion of the Japanese in just an hour. How they were able to fight against an entire regiment of the Japanese despite being inferior in equipment, and even kill the Japanese commander!"

After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, he slowly stood up and said, "Staff Officer Fang, not only will I go, but every battalion in our regiment must send a battalion-level officer to accompany me. The New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army only has a little over a thousand people, about the size of one of our infantry battalions, and its firepower configuration is not even as good as the first and second battalions. We must have them come along and learn!"

"Yes, Commander. I'll give the order right away."

Chu Yunfei nodded, walked to the entrance of the command center, and looked into the distance: "Li Yunlong, I want to see what kind of person you are!"

"Let's not talk about anything else about me, Li Yunlong. Just talking about my looks, I was a famous handsome young man in the surrounding villages. Hehehe, don't laugh at me. Back then, those who came to propose marriage to my house had their door broken down!"

"Captain Li, are you married?"

Inside Yixiantian Hospital, Li Yunlong blushed as the nurse in front of him asked. He then said, "Ahem, it's almost time. I should go back. I'd like to trouble you sisters in the regiment to take care of my brothers!"

As Li Yunlong spoke, he took out some canned food that he had seized and handed it to the nurses in front of him.

"Thank you, Captain Li!"

"Don't worry, Captain Li. We will definitely take good care of the brothers of the New 1st Regiment!"

“Hahaha, thank you, thank you!”

Only after Li Yunlong left the field hospital did he wipe the sweat from his forehead. He was a straight man in his previous life, and he was also a straight man in this life after traveling through time as Li Yunlong. Today, he was surrounded by more than 20 nurses, which was more stressful than being surrounded by a Japanese division.

Today, Li Yunlong came to the field hospital to check on the recovery of the wounded in the New 1st Regiment. However, after arriving at the hospital, he was pulled into the office of the director of the field hospital to chat.

Because of the New 1st Regiment, the field hospital avoided being attacked by the Japanese, and Li Yunlong seized some medicines and donated some of them to the field hospital, so the dean came to thank Li Yunlong specially and asked about Li Yunlong's private life.

When he learned that Li Yunlong was still single, the director immediately asked the nurses who were not on duty today to come and listen to Li Yunlong's battle stories. The meaning was self-evident.

Li Yunlong originally thought that he would just talk to the medical staff in the hospital about the war and the future, and tell them that the Japanese would definitely be driven away.

But Li Yunlong underestimated his influence among this group of medical staff.

First, they protected the transfer of government agencies, hospitals and other places in Cangyunling, including this field hospital, and also killed a Japanese regiment commander and defeated the Sakata Regiment, the elite among the Japanese elite.

Secondly, he fought a beautiful ambush in Yangcun, killing many elite Japanese soldiers, and killed the Yamazaki Battalion that attacked by surprise in Yixiantian. He also heard from people in the arsenal next door that Li Yunlong had recently been inventing and researching new things, making Li Yunlong a hero in the hearts of these medical staff.

Especially the wounded soldiers in the New 1st Regiment, they praised Li Yunlong highly. The medical staff could hear various stories about Li Yunlong from them, which aroused the curiosity of these medical staff.
