Draw the sword and cure the fear of insufficient firepower

When Zhang Lao heard that Lin Tian was going to use money to buy it, his face changed. The Eighth Route Army was good in every way, except for this...

But Mr. Zhang also knew that it was precisely because of the Eighth Route Army’s iron discipline that it could achieve what it has today.

He couldn't say anything else, as long as the Eighth Route Army accepted their kindness.

"Everyone, listen to me! From today on, our Eighth Route Army will be stationed in Heyuan!"

"Everyone can live and work in peace and contentment from now on, and no longer have to live like slaves of a conquered nation!"

Seeing that Mr. Zhang had calmed down, Lin Tian shouted to everyone.

Looking at the ecstatic smiles on the faces of the common people and the confidence in their backs, Lin Tian swore that he would never let the Japanese occupy Heyuan again no matter what.

This time, the Eighth Route Army launched two battles at the same time, which will surely liberate the entire northwest Shanxi. At that time, the Japanese will no longer be able to bully the people of northwest Shanxi!

"Great!"

"Thank you, Commander! Thank you, Eighth Route Army!!"

When the people heard what Lin Tian said in person, they finally felt relieved. As long as the Eighth Route Army was here, they felt at ease.

After saying goodbye to the people, Lin Tian didn't stay any longer. There were a total of 40 Japanese trucks in Heyuan County, so Lin Tian naturally couldn't leave them behind.

The special forces team, together with Zhou Weiguo, Heshang and Lin Tian, ​​has a total of 33 people. Each person drives a car, so there are exactly 33 cars. The rest are left to friendly forces.

Taking advantage of the night, Lin Tian returned to the Laowangshan base.

……

In Zhaojiayu, all the troops allocated by the independent regiment have been assembled.

All in all there are 10 battalions, not counting the communications company, engineering company, special forces company, and cooking squad.

Especially Zhang Dabiao, this guy brought back four battalions of troops, which is even more powerful than his mother's regiment commander.

Li Yunlong was dumbfounded when he saw the densely packed troops. He and Zhao Gang were also quite frightened at first.

But now, with a troop of over 10,000 people, the two of them were already going crazy with excitement.

In the independent regiment headquarters, in Li Yunlong's room, several battalion commanders were already in place, and they were talking about their lives after the division, as well as their respective battle results.

Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the first battalion, said: "You may not believe me, but I have four battalions under my command! Every day we guard the public line of the little devils, and we have a good life. We are really afraid that the little devils will die early. If they die, we will eat and drink from whoever they want!"

The second battalion commander Shen Quan said: "I say, Lao Zhang, you really have a way. I can't do that. I have only managed three battalions, and I don't have many weapons. There are only 3 Type 50 rifles and 20 Type 3 heavy machine guns. The Japanese only have three mountain cannons. It's so shabby!"

The Third Battalion Commander Wang Baohuai said: "You two should stop pretending. I won't say anything about Lao Zhang, but you, the Second Battalion Commander, have a strong army when you go out. I saw it when we entered the village just now. Wow, they are more powerful than the fucking Sky Locust Guards!"

"Hahaha, I'm an honest man. I don't pretend. Our Third Battalion has also expanded its strength by three battalions. We have 10 mortars and about to Type rifles!"

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang were delighted to hear that their former battalion commander was almost catching up with the regiment commander. With them, they felt more confident in this battle.

Now their independent regiment alone has over ten thousand people, not to mention Ding Wei and Kong Jie’s troops, that would have to be at least 20,000 people, right?

"I say to you bastards, you guys keep it to yourself when I ask you to report your achievements, fearing that I will punish you!"

"Now that they've gathered together, their true forms have all been revealed, right?!"

"I gathered you all together today, not for any other reason, but to attack Ping'an County!"

Li Yunlong stood in front of the table, pointing to a map and speaking. After he looked around, he saw that everyone's faces were full of excitement and there was no fear at all. He was very satisfied. This was exactly the spirit he wanted.

"Attack Ping'an County?! Hahaha, great, Commander, let our Third Battalion lead the attack!"

"Lao Wang, if you want to play the main attack, you have to step back a little. If the main attack is like this, then it's our battalion's job!"

"Hey, you two are picking on each other! We all have two shoulders and one head, and no one is raised by a stepmother. Our Second Battalion must lead the attack!"

The three battalion commanders started arguing with each other. Attacking the county town was going to be a big event.

Whoever takes the lead in this battle will be able to look down on others after the war. There is no way they would miss this opportunity.

"Alright, alright! What are you arguing about! What are you fighting for!"

"They talk about this and that, and they can't even come up with a single tune!"

"You, Third Battalion Commander, are grinning like a lotus. Main attack? If I were you, there would be no distinction between the main and the secondary. They are all main attackers!"

"Old Zhao, notify the entire regiment to have dinner, and then we will attack Ping'an County!"

Li Yunlong slammed the table, glared at everyone and gave the order.

"God has given me, Li Yunlong, this opportunity to command tens of thousands of people in battle!"

"The troops will first advance to the west, south, and north of Ping'an County. Once the artillery support from the headquarters ends, attack the city for me!"

"As for blocking the enemy's support, that is the headquarters and the brigade commander's job. I won't be responsible for that!"

"In short, whoever gets to Ping'an County first can walk around like a tyrant in the independent regiment! Even I, Li Yunlong, can be scolded!"

Li Yunlong continued.

This battle is so rich. We have both the men and the guns. What's even more encouraging is that this time the headquarters has an entire artillery column to provide artillery support.

Li Yunlong is really lucky. This kind of opportunity is rare in the world.

Except for Lin Tian, ​​who could directly attack cities occupied by the Japanese, no other troops of the Eighth Route Army had this ability.

Speaking of which, this time we also benefited from Lin Tian. Apart from anything else, the timely provision of the news of Zhu Ziming's rebellion completely saved the life of the Independent Regiment.

There are also hundreds of artillery pieces sent to the headquarters. Even the Central Army cannot afford such a large sum of money.

"Hey, Zhang Dabiao! Go and drag that bastard Zhu Ziming under the flagpole!"

"I was so busy arranging combat missions that I almost forgot about this traitorous son of a bitch!"

"This kind of traitor must be killed to appease the public anger!"

"I'm going to sacrifice this traitor as a sacrifice!"

Li Yunlong suddenly remembered that Zhu Ziming was still locked in the pigsty. He hated traitors the most in his life. It happened that the troops were about to go to war, so chopping off Zhu Ziming's head could not only vent his anger, but also boost morale. It could be considered a good use of waste.

"Yes! Captain!"

Zhang Dabiao hurriedly stood at attention and saluted.

As soon as he came back, he heard about Zhu Ziming's rebellion and couldn't help but gasp.

If Commander Lin had not informed their regiment commander early on, they might have come back to see ruins and corpses all over the ground...
