After graduating from Huangpu, he rose to prominence as a regiment leader.

Outside the independent brigade’s base.

"Captain! Do you think what was just said was true or false?" Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but speak as he just walked out of the door of the command center.

His face was filled with disbelief and shock!

According to Qin Feng's statement, in addition to the directly affiliated organizations and special units, their independent brigade still has two regiments under its command, with a total of six main battalions.

The strength of each battalion is at least over 3,000 men. Although Qin Feng did not go into detail, any discerning person could see that some battalions definitely have more!

So, is this still a battalion? It's almost a brigade!

Even their 386th Brigade only has a total strength of about 7,000 people, not to mention Chu Yunfei's 358th Regiment, a reinforced regiment with only more than 5,000 people!

In terms of seniority and development time, the Independent Brigade should not be comparable to the above two, but the fact is...

"I think it's more than that!" Li Yunlong said confidently, "I feel like Qin Feng hasn't finished talking yet."

During the conversation just now, Li Yunlong noticed that there was some hesitation in Qin Feng's words, as if he was considering something.

Li Yunlong didn't think that Qin Feng would deliberately exaggerate. There was no need for that. The only possibility was that the other party was afraid that saying it would scare... himself?

"The only thing I'm curious about now is how this independent brigade, which has both people and equipment, was developed?" Li Yunlong became puzzled when he thought of this aspect.

It’s okay that his independent brigade has a large number of people, but where did he get so many weapons?

Li Yunlong was not ignorant of the value of the equipment. He could see that some of the equipment might not even be provided by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

"Commander, our New 1200st Regiment had only soldiers at its peak. Look at how this independent brigade has expanded in such a short period of time. It has light and heavy artillery regiments, as well as a cavalry battalion. Now the total strength exceeds ." Zhang Dabiao swallowed subconsciously.

"You say, could it be that Qin Feng is out there robbing people and forcibly conscripting them?"

Originally, their New 1st Regiment was considered to be quite powerful in the 386th Brigade, but now, in comparison, the two sides are not at the same level at all.

As a battalion commander, I am afraid that I am not even as good as a platoon leader in the independent brigade!

"What are you talking about?" Li Yunlong glared at Zhang Dabiao. "Those soldiers have obviously been systematically trained. They are not rookies."

"Besides, if the independent brigade really forcibly recruited able-bodied men, have you ever seen such strong fighting ability that they would rush forward to fight the Japanese?"

Then, Li Yunlong seemed to see what Zhang Dabiao was thinking: "Don't feel discouraged, I am worse off than you!"

"I'm a regimental commander, and look at me! I'm not even as good as a battalion in the independent brigade, and Qin Feng is about to become an army commander. Who can I go to for justice?" Li Yunlong said angrily.

"That's true." Zhang Dabiao immediately felt relieved.

"Okay! We are able to survive today, all thanks to the Independent Brigade." Li Yunlong took a deep breath.

Li Yunlong paused and said, "And with the current strength and overall power of the Independent Brigade, I think it's possible for it to compete with the Osaka Division!"

"Captain, do you feel the same way?" Zhang Dabiao asked hurriedly.

You have to know that, that was the Osaka Division, an entire division!

"I think the strength shown by the independent brigade is enough!" Li Yunlong shook his head and said, "Who knew that Qin Feng had accumulated such a rich strength without saying a word."

"If you say he doesn't have the confidence to win and no backup plan, I don't believe it at all!"

He should have anticipated this when he was in Ping'an County. He could even see through Shinozuka Kazuo's plan. How could Qin Feng not have some real skills?

At that time, the Independent Brigade already had an artillery regiment, and now it is conservatively estimated to have 30,000 troops!

The entire Eighth Route Army in northwest Shanxi had only about 60,000 to 70,000 troops, and one-third of them were non-combatants.

To be honest, the Independent Brigade is already qualified to fight face to face with the Osaka Division!

"That's true." Zhang Dabiao nodded.

If they had not accidentally entered the independent brigade’s base this time, even if they had guessed the truth, they would probably not have known it.

"I can only say that I really misjudged Qin Feng!" Li Yunlong sighed.

Then Li Yunlong waved his hand and said, "Alright! Go down and make preparations. I think the Osaka Division will be here soon."

It has been nearly half a day since the 8th Regiment of the vanguard force was annihilated. Even if the Osaka Division's marching speed is slow, it is estimated that it will reach the Cangyun Mountains.

Zhang Dabiao was stunned: "Captain, are we going to go too?"

Li Yunlong glanced at him and said, "Nonsense, that's the Osaka Division. I've never fought against such a top-level division in my life."

"We can take this opportunity to join in the fun. Besides, the independent brigade is here, so it's not our turn to fight as the main force."

"Yes! Commander!" Zhang Dabiao responded.

But before he could finish his words!

"Boom boom boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

A loud explosion suddenly came from not far away.

The two of them subconsciously looked towards the place where the sound of artillery came from!

......

at the same time.

Dongyaosi Heights is the temporary position of the 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

"Where are the guns firing?" Chu Yunfei was shocked and hurried forward to pick up the telescope from Fang Ligong's hand.

"Commander! It's in the direction of Cangyun Mountains!" Fang Ligong reported quickly.

"The Cangyun Mountains again?" Chu Yunfei frowned.

At this moment, a scout trotted over and came to Chu Yunfei and reported: "Commander! A large-scale battle is taking place in the Cangyun Mountains. Both sides launched a super-large-scale artillery bombardment!"

"Super-large-scale bombardment?" Chu Yunfei subconsciously stood there in a daze.

And then, as if to verify the scout's words, a large amount of artillery bombardment sounded again!

"boom!"

"Boom boom boom!"

Even though they were several kilometers and several hilltops apart, they could still feel the residual power of the shells!

"Commander!" Fang Ligong said with a pale face, "Judging from the sound, there are probably more than sixty artillery pieces!"

Chu Yunfei took a deep breath and said, "This is really weird! Could it be that someone in the Cangyun Mountains is really going to fight the Osaka Division head-on?"

There are only a handful of people who can possess such firepower, not only in their Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, but even in the entire Second War Zone!

Apart from his 358th Regiment, the newly formed independent brigade of their 65th Division is stationed near the Cangyun Mountains, but he is very sure that neither he nor Qin Feng can have such powerful firepower under their command!

"Did you see the number clearly?" Chu Yunfei suddenly looked at the scout beside him.

"Return to the regiment commander! The firepower of both sides is too fierce, and the brothers dare not get too close!" The scout paused subconsciously, "However, we seem to have seen the uniforms of our Shanxi Suiyuan Army on the battlefield. Although the style is not uniform, they are well-equipped!"

"Are you sure?" Fang Ligong asked in disbelief.

Who would have thought that they would be able to find their own troops fighting here?

"It's certain! They are wearing helmets and holding submachine guns. Their combat effectiveness is very strong!" the scout said with great confidence.
