Bright Sword: I have a system for exchanging points for killing enemies

Chapter 335 Qin Yangming Leaving Xiaocao Village

"Captain Ding, I'll leave everything up to you. No matter how many Japanese troops are coming from Taigu, you must stop them. We must not let the Japanese reinforcements here reach Ping'an County."

At Xiaocaozhuang stronghold, after communicating with Li Yunlong and others, Qin Yangming also estimated the time and prepared to leave Xiaocaozhuang stronghold to join his troops.

After all, he is the leader of the vanguard regiment, and he will definitely be needed to give command when the vanguard regiment attacks the city.

Moreover, Qin Yangming was also worried that since he had been away from the army for such a long time, there might be some special situations in the army.

"Don't worry. Even if you don't believe me, you have to believe in the New 1st Regiment. The New 1st Regiment is your old unit. The foundation left by you and Li Yunlong is so solid. Even if we fight a small Japanese regiment, I am sure I can win."

Listening to Qin Yangming's instructions, Ding Wei said to Qin Yangming with a smile.

Although Ding Wei, Qin Yangming and others initially considered Kong Jie's New Second Regiment, they were worried that the New Second Regiment would not be able to stop the Japanese 11th Brigade.

It is true that Kong Jie faces great pressure, but Ding Wei is also under great pressure.

If the Japanese get desperate and send the 20th Division directly, then if Ding Wei wants to stop them and buy enough time for Qin Yangming and others, he will have to use the entire New 1st Regiment as a price to delay time.

Even if the Japanese did not move the 20th Division, there was still a 9th Brigade in Taigu area.

Although the 9th Brigade encountered a slight accident during the retreat during the Battle of Shangdang, the Eighth Route Army seized the opportunity and pursued it relentlessly, beating it half to death.

But they were only beaten half to death, which did not mean that the Japanese Ninth Brigade was completely wiped out.

Except for one infantry regiment that suffered heavy losses, the other losses of the 9th Brigade were not very large, and those heavy weapons were not destroyed by the Eighth Route Army.

They also had a complete infantry regiment, and Ding Wei killed the Japanese brigade commander, Major General Hattori Naoomi.

After the death of Hattori Naoomi, and for some other reasons, Hattori Naoomi's 21st Brigade was directly split up by Shinozuka Yoshio.

Therefore, Ding Wei will most likely face an attack from a complete brigade.

In other words, the area that Ding Wei was responsible for blocking was wide enough and the terrain was complex enough, otherwise it would not be easy for the New 1st Regiment to stop an entire brigade.

But even so, if Qin Yangming's progress is not smooth, the casualties of the New 1st Regiment will definitely be very heavy.

After all, it was a Japanese brigade, not a Japanese regiment, and Ding Wei's side was closer to Taiyuan.

The Japanese planes could easily fly to Ding Wei and launch an air strike on him.

Ding Wei also knew about this situation, so he was mentally prepared that the New 1st Regiment would suffer heavy losses.

Listening to Ding Wei's words, Qin Yangming took the reins handed to him by Wei Dayong, thought for a while, and then said to Ding Wei.

"Captain Ding... I will try my best to end the battle before dawn tomorrow... If the 11th Brigade of the Japanese invaders arrives quickly enough, I will try to end the battle in the shortest possible time."

"Captain Qin, you don't need to worry about me. I have a way to stop those little devils. Even if the 9th Brigade of the little devils comes, I have a way to stop them.

What's more, the brigade commander also promised to give us some support in other places.

The 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army has now also moved to the vicinity of Yushe.

If necessary, we can also ask the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army to help us share some of the pressure.

As long as the Japanese soldiers coming from Taigu passed through the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, given Chu Yunfei's temperament, it would be impossible for him to let them pass by him safely.

Moreover, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army needs our help now, so at this time, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is absolutely willing to give us some help at the critical moment.

The Jinsui Army guys couldn’t possibly not understand the principle of helping others when they need it most.”

Ding Wei had a good plan. He had a long-term vision and his ability to judge the situation was no less than those of the brigade's staff.

After the Battle of Shangdang, Ding Wei analyzed that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was most likely going to attack the Japanese in Zhongtiao Mountain and other areas.

Annihilate the Japanese troops in Zhongtiao Mountain and other areas and recapture Jincheng.

When the time comes, the Shanxi Suiyuan Army will attack the Japanese troops in Zhongtiao Mountain and Jincheng and other areas. Then the Eighth Route Army will definitely be needed to help stop the Japanese troops in the north and the Japanese troops in Henan Province from supporting the troops in Jincheng and Zhongtiao Mountain and other areas.

The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army needed help from the Eighth Route Army. At this time, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army would definitely not choose to sit back and watch, allowing the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese to fight and hoping to reap the benefits.

The situation in Shanxi is now very clear. The strength of the Eighth Route Army is slightly stronger than that of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army. In addition, the Eighth Route Army's continuous victories have won a lot of people's hearts.

If the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army dares to have any tricks or use any means to reap the spoils, then the Eighth Route Army will not indulge the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, and the Japanese will not let the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army reap the spoils.

Especially in the Shanxi area, a large number of puppet troops were suddenly selected to defect and transformed into the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army again, which made the Japanese very angry.

We worked hard to train the puppet army for two or three years, spending so much money, time, and supplies.

As a result, those puppet troops became the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in the blink of an eye... It was obvious that those puppet troops received orders from the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and pretended to surrender to the Japanese, using the Japanese's funds and supplies to support their own troops.

So now the Japanese hate Yan Laoxi so much that they wish they could kill him.

The last warlord who dared to cheat them of money was killed by them using explosives, and now there is another one.

But there is nothing we can do about Old Man Yan.

Therefore, Ding Wei believed that if there were any problems on his side, or if they could not bear it any longer.

Then the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army in Yushe would definitely send troops to support.

If the Eighth Route Army fell, Yan Laoxi would have to bear the wrath of the Japanese devils himself.

As a businessman, Yan Laoxi knows how to obtain the maximum profit.

In particular, the Jinsui Army troops in Yushe were the 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army, not other Jinsui Army troops.

In the eyes of Ding Wei and others, Chu Yunfei, the commander of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, is a manly man.

It is absolutely impossible to just let the Japanese walk past us and do nothing.

After all, the relationship between the Eighth Route Army and the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army can now be said to be that of true brother forces to a certain extent.

After listening to what Ding Wei said, Qin Yangming thought for a while, and then continued to speak to Ding Wei.

"Captain Ding, we still can't count on the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army... The iron must be strong before it can be forged... But if we really can't hold on any longer, we can contact the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army... Captain Ding, you should have the contact information of the 358th Regiment, right?
But Captain Ding, you have to pay attention. The 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army can fight with us, but we must never let the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army enter the Ping'an County area.

Ping'an County is a special place, which is related to whether our three military regions can be connected together. Ping'an County is a node and must be controlled by our Eighth Route Army. If the Shanxi Suiyuan Army wants it, then we can hand over the Xiaocaozhuang stronghold and the Xiji stronghold to the Shanxi Suiyuan Army..."

"Don't worry, I understand."

Listening to Qin Yangming's words, Ding Wei naturally knew what Qin Yangming meant.

They were simply worried that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army would use their participation in the battle as an excuse and hoped that the Eighth Route Army would give them half of Ping'an County.

Or give them half of the captured spoils.

But as Qin Yangming said, Ping'an County is indeed important to the Eighth Route Army. At least under the current circumstances, before taking Shuiquan, Ping'an County is very important to the Eighth Route Army.

Before taking Shuiquan, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army must not be allowed to enter Ping'an County.

Otherwise, who knows whether the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army will do anything tricky.

Qin Yangming has always been extremely vigilant towards the Kuomintang’s troops.

Even though the commander of the 358th Regiment is Chu Yunfei, a Lu Bu among men, Qin Yangming is still worried.

Chu Yunfei is not a good person.

It is true that Chu Yunfei fought against the Japanese invaders. It is also true that he could and dared to fight against the Japanese invaders.

But this does not mean that Chu Yunfei has no other ideas.

Otherwise, in the original TV series, Chu Yunfei would not have sent two battalions of troops directly into Dagu Town, becoming a sharp knife stuck in the heart of Li Yunlong's Independent Regiment.

If the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army were allowed to enter Ping'an County, there was a high possibility that they would demand a portion of Ping'an County's territory in exchange for assisting in the battle.

By then, if the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army obtained part of the territory in Ping'an County, and then used Ping'an County to threaten the Eighth Route Army, then the Eighth Route Army would be in big trouble.

If other people knew what Qin Yangming was thinking, many people would definitely think that Qin Yangming was judging others by his own standards.

It is believed that Qin Yangming was making a fuss out of nothing and was too biased in his view of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

However, as a time traveler, Qin Yangming believes that his ideas are very reasonable and normal.

After all, after the Eighth Route Army occupied the entire Shangdang area, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army had requested more than once to jointly manage the Shangdang area with the Eighth Route Army.

Judging from this situation, even if the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army did not fight the Eighth Route Army openly, it would definitely use some tricks.

It would be strange if the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army would let go of such an opportunity to take advantage.

Apart from anything else, even the Eighth Route Army would not turn a blind eye when faced with an opportunity to gain an advantage.

The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army wanted the Shangdang area controlled by the Eighth Route Army, but why didn't the Eighth Route Army also want the Luliang Mountain area and Guanzhong area controlled by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army?

Moreover, Qin Yangming remembered that it would not be long before a certain bald guy in the mountain city would play the game of pacifying the country before fighting the enemy, and would prepare to make some small moves and play some tricks.

In the original history, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army obeyed the orders of a certain bald master of micro-control and followed the Japanese devils to blockade and expel the Eighth Route Army.

In today's world, the strength of the Eighth Route Army is no longer what it used to be.

But Qin Yangming did not dare to bet that the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army would not obey the orders of a certain micro-manipulation master.

People can only bet on other people's evil, but never bet on the other party's kindness.

At least, for Yan Laoxi, a warlord who is good at doing business, he absolutely cannot gamble that the other party will have a change of heart.

The reason why Yan Laoxi is close to the Eighth Route Army now is simply because he has seen the rapid expansion of the Eighth Route Army's strength. The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is no longer able to check and balance the Eighth Route Army. If the Eighth Route Army is provoked, the Eighth Route Army is capable of teaching some disobedient guys a lesson.

So because of this situation, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army is now starting to get close to the Eighth Route Army.

Because the benefits of being close to the Eighth Route Army are greater than those of being hostile to it.

That’s right, to put it bluntly, the relationship between the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and the Eighth Route Army is actually just a relationship between interests.

The Eighth Route Army was powerful and able to withstand the Japanese invaders, bringing greater benefits and threats to the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

Therefore, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was willing to make friends with the Eighth Route Army.

If one day the Eighth Route Army suffered a great loss in its combat effectiveness, the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army would definitely swallow up the Eighth Route Army in its entirety at the first possible moment.

"Forget it, let's talk about the rest later... Let's resolve this battle first... As long as our Eighth Route Army's strength is improved, that bald micromanipulation master won't dare to attack our Eighth Route Army again."

Qin Yangming shook his head, telling himself not to think about anything else and began to concentrate on preparing for this battle.

Because we need to hurry to the location of the Vanguard Group and reunite with them.

Therefore, Qin Yangming and others did not plan to rest halfway. In order to maintain speed, Qin Yangming and others rode three horses and quickly left the Xiaocaozhuang stronghold.

After Qin Yangming led his troops away from Xiaocaozhuang stronghold.

Ding Wei also dispersed the entire New 1st Regiment according to the original combat plan, and ordered each company and platoon to enter the designated positions to prepare for blocking.

"Qi Tao, you are responsible for commanding the three cavalry regiments. You will lead all the cavalry to garrison in Dagu Town... Dagu Town is located in the central area of ​​Ping'an County. No matter which side has problems, the cavalry can provide support at the fastest speed.

All the war horses and motorcycles are handed over to your temporary cavalry regiment.

Remember, as long as I send you a telegram, you will rush to Jinsheling with your troops as quickly as possible..."

After arranging the other troops of the new regiment, Ding Wei turned his attention to Qi Tao, the battalion commander of the cavalry battalion of the independent regiment, who led all the cavalry of the three regiments.

After Ding Wei spread out the map, he pointed at the map and assigned tasks to Qi Tao.

To a certain extent, the temporary cavalry regiment led by Qi Tao was a general reserve force and a fire brigade.

If something goes wrong at that time, we will fail to stop the Japanese attack.

Then Qi Tao would need to lead the cavalry to provide support.

"Okay, no problem. I'll set off with the troops right away."
