Sword of Light: I Can Summon the Fourth Disaster

Ding Wei and Li Yunlong left the Eighth Route Army Headquarters. Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong, who seemed to have just come down from the battlefield, and felt a little confused.

After the two men mounted their horses, they hurried towards the temporary base of the New 1st Regiment. On the way, looking at Li Yunlong who remained silent, Ding Wei asked in confusion.

"Old Li, who are you showing your displeasure to? Damn it, I finally developed 3000 people in Jizhong, and you got all the money, and you are still not happy."

Li Yunlong looked at Ding Wei and said worriedly, "Old Ding, it's not that we don't welcome old comrades, it's that I'm worried about the situation of our new regiment."

Ding Wei looked at Li Yunlong, who was still covered in smoke, and asked, "I wanted to ask you when we left the headquarters just now, why do you look like you just came down from the battlefield?"

Li Yunlong said angrily: "Damn it, my New 1st Regiment was almost defeated by the Japanese yesterday. If it weren't for the passing of the officers of the International Youth Column, my regiment would have only been able to break out of the encirclement by one-third. I have fought for so many years and never suffered such a big loss."

Ding Wei asked, "That's not right, Li Yunlong. When I was in Jizhong, I heard that you made a fortune and your army has at least 6000 people. What kind of devils could let you suffer such a big loss?"

"This group of Japanese soldiers suddenly appeared at the base of our New 1st Regiment, carrying a large number of large-caliber heavy artillery. Many of our soldiers didn't even have time to dig anti-artillery holes and were caught off guard by the Japanese soldiers." Li Yunlong said somewhat cowardly when talking about the encounter yesterday.

Ding Wei asked in confusion: "That's not right, Lao Li. Even if you can't defeat these devils, you should be able to move quickly. How could this happen?"

"Less than half an hour after the encounter began, our regiment's communications with the battalions and companies below were cut off, and we couldn't even pass on messages. In the six hours after the battle, this group of devils successfully split our New 1st Regiment into pieces. If the officer division hadn't forcibly broken through this group of devils, I'm afraid that except for a few companies on the periphery that could break out, our New 1st Regiment would have been trapped inside."

After listening to Li Yunlong's narration, Ding Wei's face suddenly became solemn. He knew Li Yunlong's ability to lead troops. They could make the powerful New 1st Regiment suffer a heavy loss. This group of Japanese devils was really not simple.

Looking at Ding Wei who looked thoughtful, Li Yunlong said, "Hey, Old Ding, it's not that I look down on you. If your 28th Regiment encounters this group of devils, I'm afraid they won't even be able to break through."

Ding Wei was not convinced when he heard this and said, "Hey, Lao Li, who are you looking down on?"

Li Yunlong also had a solemn look on his face, and began to narrate: "Last night, after we met the enemy, our regiment's guard platoon, special agent company, engineering company, pistol company, security department, and confidential department began to distribute weapons and prepare to break out. We were equipped with a large amount of automatic firepower and semi-automatic rifles, but the fighting will of this group of devils was frighteningly strong. It took us more than a thousand people eight hours to break through the blockade of a battalion of devils. If the officer division hadn't stabbed the devils from the rear, I'm afraid even the headquarters would have been attacked."

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, Ding Wei asked, "My goodness, you have thousands of troops directly under the regiment alone. How has your New First Regiment developed?"

Speaking of developing and expanding the New 1st Regiment, Li Yunlong had a smug smile on his face: "Hey, Lao Ding, you can't just brag, you can't push a train, and you can't just use the keys. How can you let us, Lao Li, lead you?"

"Our new regiment now has more than 40 people. Our regiment is equipped with a large number of machine guns and the Type 56 semi-automatic rifles (386 semi-automatic rifles) that have just been mass-produced by the headquarters. When it comes to combat effectiveness, our regiment is unique among the th Brigade."

Hearing this number, Ding Wei was a little surprised and said: "Oh my God, 15,000 people. Everyone said that you made a fortune, but I didn't expect you to make such a fortune. You are almost a division commander."

Li Yunlong said with some sadness: "What's the point of being a division commander? Our troops were almost wiped out by the Japanese. This time we were surrounded by the Japanese. In just one day, at least 3,000 soldiers were killed, and half of the remaining survivors were injured. This time the general originally transferred our regiment to the vicinity of the headquarters, hoping that we could concentrate on training so that we could support the Northeast together with the International Youth Column."

"Okay, Lao Li, we suffered a little this time, but we can come back next time, right? By then, our Liang Wan army will march into the Northeast and turn the world upside down."

Majiayu

The former headquarters of the New 1st Regiment is now the headquarters of the officers' division.

Ye Lisan was pacing back and forth in the headquarters. Seeing Zuo Xingru rushing in, he asked anxiously, "Is there any news from the 3rd and 13th Brigades?"

Zuo Xingru shook his head and then said some bad news: "Division Commander, the Air Force suffered heavy losses this time. One of the fighter planes in the Air Force has already been killed."

Ye Lisan listened to the thunderous artillery sounds not far away and said anxiously, "There are not many people left in our officer division now. If the other two brigades don't come, it will be easy for these little devils to escape."

Zuo Xingru was also a little anxious. Originally, the Officers Division was ordered to infiltrate, but unexpectedly they encountered a large number of Japanese soldiers besieging the New 1st Regiment. If Ye Lisan had not known the priorities and made a prompt decision to order the infantry of the Officers Division to charge with artillery, it would probably take a while for the New 1st Regiment to be rescued.

"Division Commander, this group of devils brought a large number of large-caliber mortars. We didn't bring any heavy artillery with us this time, and this is where we suffered a loss."

Looking at the Majia Town on the map, which was being fought over by the Japanese and the players, Ye Lisan made a prompt decision and said, "Notify the Air Force and have them send out a bomber unit to blow up Majia Town for me."

Zuo Xingru added, "Should we ask the Air Force to airdrop a batch of large-caliber mortars? The Japanese troops this time are equipped with an anti-aircraft company, and there are constantly Japanese planes flying over from northern Hebei. I'm afraid the Air Force will not be able to provide us with ground fire support."

Ye Lisan agreed: "Okay, let's arrange it this way."

In the woods behind Majia Town, the Japanese headquarters is located

Higuchi Kiichiro looked at Majia Town, which was ploughed by aerial bombs, put down the telescope, and asked the recruiter Heishiro beside him: "Recruitment officer, what are the losses of the 8th Division?"

Admissions officer Heishiro quickly reported: "Since the 7th Division's battle, two infantry regiments and one heavy artillery regiment have been completely destroyed. The enemy's firepower is extremely fierce. Our 35th Division's th Infantry Regiment and th Infantry Regiment have suffered more than half of their casualties."

After listening to this, Higuchi Kiichiro asked Hirashiro with a sullen face: "The enemy is now surrounded by our two divisions, but the small town in front of us has been fought over five times by the locust army and the peasant army on the opposite side. Is the enemy's army immortal?"

"Private Marseille, General, the enemy seems to have a constant supply of soldiers to take the position away from us."
