"This attack starts at 8pm but must end by 10pm."

"At 11 p.m., the Nakamura Battalion will launch an attack on Ping'an County. That's when we'll evacuate."

"Although I have a deal with Nakamura Ryo, in order to ensure our plan and block the devil's reinforcements from other places."

"I contacted a regiment of the Eighth Route Army and asked Wu Qianli to come and pick us up."

"The meeting point is the west gate of Ping'an County."

"This is all planned. If you don't understand something, just ask."

Zhou Weimin said to Wang Dali, Liu Feng, Zhang Yang, Zhou Ming and more than a dozen other officers.

"Commander, we can end the battle in one hour, not two."

Wang Dali is very confident, and this is not something Wang Dali says casually.

Today, the weapons and equipment of the Tiger Guards are more powerful than those of the Japanese, and they are all veterans with stronger combat effectiveness than the Japanese.

Plus sneak attacks and artillery bombardments.

The Tiger Guards could easily wipe out the Pingmu Battalion within an hour.

"Don't be careless. The Hiraki Battalion is different from the Nakamura Battalion."

"The Hiraki Battalion has over 1400 men, and its combat effectiveness is stronger than that of the Nakamura Battalion."

Zhou Weimin saw that many officers agreed with Wang Dali's words, so he spoke.

"Commander, don't worry, the soldiers are already familiar with the new weapons."

"Commander, we are strong now, and we have enough ammunition. Even if it is the Hiraki Battalion and Nakamura together, we can destroy them."

"Commander, the soldiers have had good food for the past three months, and with daily training, their combat effectiveness is now on par with the Japanese's elite troops."

......

Zhou Weimin heard the officers nod slightly, because he thought so too, but the knocking still needed to be done.

"You heard this. This plan is very important to our Tiger Guards. You all need to pay attention to it."

"Whether our Tiger Guards can be transformed from a puppet army into an anti-Japanese armed force depends on this one time."

"So if any of you fail to complete the task on time, you will be subject to military court."

Swish!

The officers all stood up and shouted, "Yes!"

Zhou Weimin pressed his hand and continued, "Okay, now tell me if you have any questions. I'll solve them right away."

"Commander, after our First Company of the Third Battalion has taken control of the west gate of Ping'an County, do we need to contact Wu Qianli?"

The first person to come forward and ask questions was not Wang Dali and the other battalion commanders, but Zhang Yong, the company commander of the third battalion.

"No need. Your mission as the First Company of the Third Battalion is to completely control the west gate of Ping'an County."

"Wu Qianli brought only new recruits. These recruits have not been trained for a few days and are not needed in the battle."

"Wu Qianli's mission is to support us and stop the devils coming from other places."

"But as long as we finish the battle quickly, Wu Qianli's new recruits will not only block our attack, but also empty Ping'an County."

Zhou Weimin directly told the officers present about Wu Qianli's mission.

"Commander, what if Captain Ding of the Eighth Route Army wants to enter Ping'an County?"

Xu Hu suddenly thought of Ding Wei who was also supporting them, and needed to ask.

"We can let Captain Ding's troops enter Ping'an County." Zhou Weimin thought for a moment and said.

Zhou Weimin had his own considerations for letting Ding Wei assisted his troops.

On the one hand, it adds a layer of protection.

On the other hand, it is to make friends with Ding Wei. After all, as long as the battle is fast, Ding Wei's troops don't need to do anything.

Next, several more officers asked some questions.

Zhou Weimin answered them one by one.

Because Zhou Weimin attaches great importance to this operation, this operation concerns the future of Zhou Weimin's troops.

While Zhou Weimin was starting to prepare.

However, problems arose on Ding Wei's side.

Long before Zhou Weimin held the meeting, he had already sent a telegram to Ding Wei.

He informed Ding Wei of the detailed plan and asked him to come to the west gate of Ping'an County at 8 o'clock tomorrow night to pick him up.

And block other Japanese invaders who come to support Ping'an County.

But Ding Wei also received an order from his superiors, which was to send two battalions of troops to garrison in Liu Village at five o'clock tomorrow afternoon to block a squadron of Japanese invaders.

Ding Wei's troops currently have only three battalions. If two of them are transferred away, he will not have enough troops to support Zhou Weimin's troops.

So Ding Wei thought of the independent regiment stationed in Kongjie, Zhoucun.

Zhoucun, the headquarters of the independent regiment.

"Lao Ding, why did you come to me? Is there any trouble?"

"Let me make it clear first, I will definitely support those who I can, but if I can't, I have no other options."

"You are also aware of the situation of our independent regiment. We are also short of guns and ammunition."

After Kong Jie saw Ding Wei, he hurriedly spoke before Ding Wei could say anything.

Kong Jie knew that his superiors had asked Ding Wei to form a new regiment, so he thought Ding Wei was here to extort money.

"Lao Kong, don't worry, I'm not here to take advantage of you."

"Besides, I don't even look at your equipment!"

Ding Wei laughed a few times. They had known each other for many years, so how could he not know what Kong Jie was thinking?

"Oh! Lao Kong, you have made a fortune. Tell me where you made your fortune."

Kong Jie was slightly stunned when he heard this, then his eyes lit up. He wanted to take advantage of the situation.

"Lao Kong, you are right. I have become rich, and I am planning to help you become rich too."

Seeing Kong Jie's expression of wanting to take advantage, Ding Wei knew that there would be no problem in borrowing troops this time.

"where?"

Kong Jie asked hurriedly after hearing this.

"Ping'an County."

Ding Wei said directly.

"What? What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Kong Jie thought Ding Wei was here to make a fool of himself, so he and Ding Wei's troops went to Ping'an County.

If this isn't funny, what is?

"Lao Kong, what I said is true. This is what happened. A few days ago, I went to Ping'an County..."

"I've already promised Zhou Weimin, and I've already received the weapons and equipment."

"Zhou Weimin just sent me a telegram asking me to meet him at the west gate of Ping'an County at 8 o'clock tomorrow night."

"But headquarters just issued an order for my New 1st Regiment to send two battalions of troops to Liu Village at 5 pm tomorrow to block a squadron of the Japanese."

"My troops won't be enough, and your independent regiment happens to be right next to my base, so I'm here to find you!"

Ding Wei did not argue with Kong Jie anymore, but told Kong Jie his purpose directly.

"Old Ding, can Zhou Weimin be trusted?"

After hearing Ding Wei's narration, Kong Jie thought for a while and then said to Ding Wei.

Kong Jie had never met Zhou Weimin, but he had heard of him. Kong Jie actually did not trust this puppet soldier.

"Lao Kong, I think I can trust you."

Ding Wei said seriously without any hesitation.
