Li Yunlong was stunned, then whispered, "There are now 687 people in the regiment, all of them are equipped with guns, but the heavy weapons are basically all scrapped in Cangyun Ridge!"

Ding Wei slammed the table and said, "In the entire Cangyunling Campaign, your New 1st Regiment alone lost more than half of its main force, not to mention the local troops that were there to assist you in the battle.

Almost all the county brigades, district squads, and village defense teams in Pingyang were wiped out.

I don't deny your contribution this time, but the sacrifice was too great. According to the battle report from the headquarters, our casualties in the entire Cangyunling battle exceeded 5000, not counting the civilians.

If you break out according to the headquarters' plan, the entire battle time will be shortened by at least 10 hours. Do you know how many lives can be saved in these 10 hours?

And this is the real reason why the headquarters asked you to go to the clothing factory!"

Ding Wei was afraid that Li Yunlong would lose his temper, so he had to explain everything to him.

"You think Wang Ye is the only one who has objections? Many people have objections, but they just can't express them. The headquarters is protecting you!"

Li Yunlong was broken by Ding Wei's words. He always thought that he was wronged. Now he thought about it and realized that those who sacrificed were the ones who were truly wronged.

Li Yunlong has never been to school, otherwise he would have shouted, "A general's success is the result of the sacrifice of thousands of soldiers!"

Unable to drink any more wine, Li Yunlong packed his bags and went to the clothing factory. Ding Wei officially took over the new regiment.

Wang Ye didn't know what happened to Li Yunlong. What he was concerned about now was the prisoner-of-war camp. Wang Ergou and Wang Xiaokui had already returned.

"Er Gou, have you found out the truth?"

"Hehe, don't worry, Captain. We have been here for half a month and have figured out everything about the entire prisoner-of-war camp inside and out." Wang Ergou smiled flatteringly.

“Brother Ergou, please stop smiling like that. It gives me goosebumps just by looking at you!” Wang Xiaokui slapped Ergou.

Wang Ergou smiled and said, "Sorry, I've laughed too much these days, it's become a habit!"

Wang Ye looked at Ergou and felt that he looked like a traitor!

"Captain, the prisoner-of-war camp is located 50 miles west of us, in Ping'an County. This prisoner-of-war camp was established not long ago, and there are about 2000 prisoners of war in it.

Their supplies were provided by the Huting stronghold, which was more than 30 miles away from the POW camp, and were delivered every seven days. We found out this from the Japanese who were delivering the supplies.

Wang Ye didn't care about anything else. He asked again uncertainly, "Are you sure there are 2000 prisoners of war inside?"

"Yes, the Japanese soldiers who transported the supplies have been there for several months. We are quite familiar with the situation inside. I heard that they are all Nationalist and Shanxi Suiyuan troops who are unwilling to be traitors. I think there are also Eighth Route Army, but they are relatively few.

The only thing I don't understand is why this prisoner-of-war camp was not built in the city, but in a more secluded place in the mountains?"

Wang Ergou didn't understand, but Wang Ye knew very well that the Japanese were setting up this real-life training ground for the special forces under Yamamoto Ikki who was about to arrive.

"What is the defense situation of the prisoner-of-war camp? Is a storming attack possible?" Wang Ye asked carefully.

Wang Ergou asked in confusion, "Captain, are there only 10 or so people in our regiment? Have you recruited soldiers in the past half month?"

"no!"

"We couldn't storm the camp by force. The walls surrounding the camp were more than 5 meters high, with firing holes everywhere. Outside the walls was a trench 3 meters wide and 5 meters deep. It was impossible to get through.

The only entrance was the small door for delivering supplies, and every time they were handed over at the door, the Japanese carried them in themselves, and only the second Japanese platoon leader could go in! "

Wang Ergou explained everything he knew in one breath.

Wang Su was eating jerky, lying comfortably on a chair, when he suddenly said, "If hard tactics don't work, we'll try soft tactics. If force doesn't work, we'll poison you!"

"Poison?" Wang Ye touched his chin subconsciously, not to mention that the method was feasible.

"Then poison it. Ergou, where do you think we should put the poison?"

Wang Ergou said without thinking, "Captain, if we are going to poison someone, I suggest you put the poison in the meat. Every time the Japanese send us food, they will bring a slaughtered pig.

The Japanese must have eaten all of this pig, and the prisoners of war certainly wouldn't get any. This way we don't have to worry about accidental injuries, but we don't have any poison!"

Wang Ye slapped his thigh and said, "I'll find a way to get the poison. Gather the troops immediately and we'll set off immediately. I can't wait to see my soldiers!"

There were 16 people in the children's group. Except for the women who stayed behind in the village, all the others went out. Traveling more than 50 miles was no problem for the children's group.

That night, Wang Ye saw the wall of the prisoner-of-war camp. He called Er Gou over and gave him a small glass bottle. This poison was exchanged from the system. It was colorless and tasteless, and the drug effect would only take effect an hour after being ingested.

This way, there will be no embarrassment of being discovered after the Japanese in front have finished eating.

"Just put it in the pork. When will the supplies be delivered to us from the Tiger Pavilion?"

Wang Ergou thought for a moment and said, "Tomorrow!"

"Then take a rest and wait until tomorrow!"

That night Wang Ergou took Wang Xiaokui away. They were going to the Huting stronghold to contact the Japanese invaders who were transporting supplies in advance.

The next afternoon, Wang Xiaobao, who was on sentry duty, ran back to the temporary camp and shouted happily, "Captain, Brother Ergou and those traitors are back!"

Wang Ye ran out with his children to see that, sure enough, at the gate of the prisoner-of-war camp in the distance, a long line of mule carts carrying vegetables, grains, and pork were being handed over to the Japanese.

Wang Ergou looked in the direction of Wang Ye from a distance and nodded slightly.

After it got dark, Wang Ergou took Wang Xiaokui back to the camp. As soon as he came back, he found Wang Ye and said excitedly, "Captain, it's settled!"

Wang Ye immediately ordered, "Little sister, after 9 o'clock, your brother and I will go in and take a look. If there are any Japanese soldiers who are still alive, we will kill them!"

"Okay!" Wang Su smiled with her eyes curved. She loved to make trouble for the Japanese the most.

Time passed by minute by minute, and as soon as it was 9 o'clock, Wang Su pulled Wang Ye away. She couldn't wait even a second.

After the brother and sister set off, the others followed them to the vicinity of the POW camp. Once Wang Ye succeeded, he would send a signal.

Wang Ye and Wang Su first observed the movements of the Japanese soldiers on the wall. As a result, they did not see any Japanese soldiers patrolling on the wall today.

Wang Ye took out his hook and shot it up, then climbed up nimbly, climbing up the wall in a few seconds.

After Wang Ye gave a signal that it was safe, Wang Su and the others climbed up.

"Captain, there's no one on the wall!"

Wang Ergou ran into the shooting point at the corner of the wall, took a look, and shouted in a low voice.
