Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

The new regiment was stationed in Chenjiazhuang and completed a round of armament adjustments in a very short time.

The battalion led by Zhang Dabiao was training outside the woods. The four-sided bayonet of the water-jet rifle was more useful than the Japanese bayonets.

It is suitable for stabbing, and is easy to pull out once it pierces the flesh.

The bayonet is longer than that of the Type 38 rifle. The gun is heavy and sturdy, and seems like it will never break down.

The soldiers held it in their hands and became familiar with the feeling of assassination.

For the Eighth Route Army, which was short of guns and bullets, having a sturdy and durable rifle was a valuable asset.

Battalion Commander Gao lay on the side, watching the bayonet fighting training of the soldiers of the first battalion, and could not help shaking his head.

"Da Biao, the equipment of the First Battalion is good, and the guns are good too. Why do they all seem fancy to me?"

Zhang Dabiao raised the corner of his mouth.

"Lao Gao, if you're not convinced, let the brothers fight and beat the shit out of your Second Battalion."

"Pick a few representatives to try it out? It's useless to just practice fake tricks. Let the brothers have some serious fun."

As they spoke, they started to fight, each selecting ten people, putting on thick clothes, and carrying wooden training guns.

"Captain Gao, come on!"

"Captain Zhang, kill them."

Zhong Zhicheng was attracted by the shouting and saw the brothers from the two camps gathered together. He thought a fight had broken out.

When I squeezed into the crowd, I found that it was Zhang Dabiao and Gao Qing who were leading the fight.

Although Gao Qing is thin, he is agile and strong, and he keeps fighting around Zhang Da Biao.

Seeing that he couldn't control the situation, Da Biao made up his mind, threw down his weapon, and pulled out a tree like a bear.

Zhang Dabiao used brute force to grab Captain Gao, throwing him to the ground, thus completing the kill.

The soldiers of the first battalion shouted so loudly that the birds in the distance flapped their wings and flew away.

"In terms of combat effectiveness, the Second Battalion is still a little behind. We need to go back and practice more."

He did not forget to make a sarcastic remark, which made Gao Qing's Second Battalion hold their anger and wait for revenge next time.

Morale, isn't it, something that is acquired through hard training?

Ding Wei arranged the reconnaissance company and the cavalry company to conduct regular reconnaissance on the hills near Chenjiazhuang.

The reconnaissance range has been continuously expanded from the initial 5 kilometers to 10 kilometers.

Some horses were captured, which greatly enhanced the mobility of the troops' reconnaissance personnel.

In the past few days, reconnaissance soldiers have hurried back and brought new news.

The Japanese army suddenly added an infantry company to Yu County to strengthen the security force and even went to the mountainous area for alert.

This group of troops left the county and deployed along important highways.

It seems like there is some important combat mission.

The mountainous area is already the territory of the New 1st Regiment. This group of people dared to go deep into the mountainous area. Are they looking for death?

Ding Wei needed to confirm the intentions of the Japanese and the reason for suddenly sending more troops to Meng County to strengthen security in the county and on the highways.

No matter what the reason, since the Japanese dared to leave the city, the New 1st Regiment dared to fight.

"Order all battalions and companies to assemble and prepare for battle. The reconnaissance company should gather its forces and conduct reconnaissance in the direction of Yu County to find out the enemy's deployment and strength."

Just after giving the order, Ding Wei received another piece of news.

The Japanese in Dahan Mountain have made new moves. A group of specially trained guys came out of the stronghold and drove towards the southwest.

That's where the headquarters is located, and the Japs are targeting the boss.

I immediately thought of the observation group.

This was a major event for the Japanese First Army in the Shanxi War Zone, as it brought young officers from North China to the mountainous area to observe the special forces' operations.

The highest officer was Major General Hattori Naoomi, who was also the leader of the observation group.

The Japanese observation officer is going to pass through Yu County?

Looking at the map on the table, Ding Wei connected the Yu County, Shouyang and Huting strongholds with a pencil.

It's really possible.

When Japanese officers came from North China, they had to take the Zhengtai Line and reach the mountainous area, and they would operate around Yangquan.

Which way should I take? Where should I enter the mountain?

These are confidential matters of the Japanese army.

Catching these big fish might require some luck, and Li Yunlong's luck.

You can capture the Japanese officers by just finding a leader on a hillside.

Ding Wei didn't consider these things at all. Catching big fish requires luck, but retaking Yu County requires strength.

Let's get practical.

He wanted to take advantage of the performance of the Japanese special forces to make a big move and capture the county town of Yun County.

The main force of the New 1st Regiment quickly gathered, and the reconnaissance company rushed to the mountainous area north of Yun County to find out the enemy's troop deployment.

Only one infantry squadron was added, and including the Yu County gendarmerie and puppet troops, the total force in the county was just over 2000.

The combat effectiveness of the puppet army and the Japanese military police was third-rate, and Ding Wei did not take them seriously at all.

We have to consider that a battalion of Japanese soldiers in Wanjia Town can provide support to Yun County at any time.

In the evening, Zhang Dabiao and others entered the command center.

Everyone was full of energy and couldn't wait to fight the Japanese and compete for the main attack.

"I, Ding Wei, will not fight an unprepared battle. There are three forces in Yu County: the Wanjia Town Infantry Battalion, the County Infantry Squadron, the Military Police and the Puppet Army, totaling 3000 people."

"The new group has less than 2000 people. It's disadvantageous for me to fight with fewer people. I cooked one table of food, but two tables of guests came. How should I fight?"

Several people looked at each other, waiting for Ding Wei's instructions.

You are the leader, so you decide how to fight?

Even if it means going through fire and water, the brothers are never hesitant.

"I have made the following deployment: the Third Battalion, the guerrillas, the militia, and the cavalry company will stop the Japanese invaders in Wanjia Town."

"The first battalion will attack the Yuxian infantry squadron, and wait for reinforcements. Gather all the Japanese and puppet troops in Yuxian, and when the Japanese reinforcements arrive, quickly kill them."

"The Second Battalion, the Reconnaissance Company, and the Mortar Company set up an ambush to block the enemy and open up a gap to let the Japanese and puppet reinforcements in."

In the mountainous area in the north of Yun County, a battlefield was created for blocking, besieging, attacking reinforcements, and encircling and annihilating the enemy.

After the new regiment replaced its equipment and added a heavy machine gun company, it needed a tough battle to give the Japanese some strength.

"All units and battalions shall deploy according to my orders, and the reconnaissance companies shall monitor the enemy's movements at all times."

"Deputy Commander Zhong, mobilize all logistics personnel to move the ammunition to the front line. Even if you have to carry it on your shoulders, you have to carry it to the top of the mountain."

After the battle plan was synchronized, Gao Qing was the first to stand up.

"Captain, I have a question."

"What's your problem?"

Gao Qing spoke frankly, asking why the first battalion should be the main attacking force when his second battalion could also complete the task.

"Follow orders. If you have any opinions, we can discuss them after the next battle. Speed ​​is of the essence. We must launch the offensive before daybreak."

Ding Wei directly suppressed the opinion of the Second Battalion and decided that next time there would be an opportunity, Gao Qing could lead the main attack.

This time, Zhang Dabiao naturally had to be placed in a key position to cripple the Japanese squadron in one wave.

We must grasp the right timing, neither destroying him in one go nor causing too much loss to the troops.

Make a feint to lure the enemy, but also make sure you defeat the opponent in a short period of time, and don't mess it up.

The first battalion has been better trained and better equipped with weapons and equipment, so it must be put into battle this time.

The soldiers were distributed combat supplies, grenades and bullets, and joined the marching ranks.

Veterans have 50 rounds of bullets, recruits have 15 rounds of bullets, and sharpshooters have unlimited ammunition.

As long as you can recite it, we will approve as much as you want.

Ding Wei took the initiative to create opportunities and launched a surprise attack on the Japanese infantry company.
