Anti-Japanese War: Plunder the devils to create a super army

Just as Wang Lin guessed, the New 1st Regiment had already arrived at the command post.

Li Yunlong was biting peanuts and looking at the map in front of him.

Zhang Dabiao, Kong Jie, Ding Wei, and other battalion commanders had already arrived at the command room and were waiting for something.

After seeing Wang Lin come in, Li Yunlong stood up from his chair and said with a smile.

"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's start the discussion."

Ding Wei was frowning at this moment and seemed a little unhappy.

Wang Lin didn’t know why the other party was unhappy, but he didn’t think too much about it and just walked over.

Li Yunlong coughed lightly and spoke.

"The reconnaissance team has just reported to us that the Japanese in Yangquan Town have begun to move out."

"Yangquan Town has two battalions of Japanese soldiers, and there are many other logistics troops left. This time we are facing the Second Battalion of the 4th Independent Mixed Brigade."

"The enemy has about 1000 men, with artillery, infantry, and even cavalry. In addition, they also brought thousands of puppet troops. The total number is almost close to 3000. It is definitely a huge enemy."

Everyone basically already knows this news.

After hearing the news, the independent regiment naturally remained calm and did not show any big reaction.

There is definitely some tension, but their independent regiment is no pushover. They have made sufficient preparations, and even if facing so many enemies, they are confident that they can give them a hard time.

On the contrary, Ding Wei was obviously a little nervous.

As for the New 1st Regiment, they obviously lacked firepower, and facing such a large group of Japanese devils, the pressure must have been enormous.

Ding Wei frowned slightly and said.

"The Japanese are coming in with such force, which means our work of sabotaging the railway has indeed interfered with them."

"While they haven't arrived yet, this is a very important opportunity for us. We must make arrangements before they reach the target location, and it would be best to ambush them halfway."

"Also, this is an independent mixed brigade, which means they must have enormous firepower and a lot of artillery. I think we should request firepower assistance from the brigade headquarters."

In Ding Wei's opinion, with the strength of their Independent Regiment and the New 1st Regiment, it would be very difficult to intercept this force, and it would be even more difficult to defeat the other side.

Although the strength of the two sides seemed to be similar, in his eyes, this was a large group of Japanese devils, with thousands of puppet troops and sufficient firepower.

According to past experience, it would be very difficult to defeat the opponent, and we would have to ask for some assistance.

When Li Yunlong heard Ding Wei's words, he immediately smiled and said.

"Everyone is busy fighting right now. The fighting is so intense everywhere that they don't have time to care about us."

"And it's just a group of devils and some scumbags. I've wanted to fight them for a long time, and finally got this chance."

When Ding Wei heard what the other party said, his expression suddenly became a little strange.

He also didn't understand why the other party was so confident that they could face the Japanese army and so many puppet troops.

This is a force of nearly 3000 Japanese soldiers. Even if the puppet army's strength is not that good, they can still be suppressed with sufficient firepower.

"Li Yunlong, don't be so arrogant. The battles you fought recently were all against some Japanese strongholds. They are nothing to worry about."

"This time we're facing a large group of Japanese soldiers. If something unexpected happens, our heads combined won't be enough to withstand the brigade commander's mouth."

Li Yunlong immediately rolled his eyes.

"Go to hell, why are you mentioning brigade commander for no reason?"

"Even if it's just a battalion of devils, what can they do? Don't forget, I was the one who led your Shinichi Regiment to defeat the Sakata Regiment."

"I can lead the New 1st Regiment to defeat the Sakata Regiment. Even if we face a battalion of Japanese soldiers, I can lead the Independent Regiment to defeat them."

As soon as these words were spoken, Ding Wei fell silent.

It is a fact that Li Yunlong led the New 1st Regiment to defeat the Sakata Regiment.

Although they were only trying to break through the Sakata Regiment, they actually killed the captain of the Sakata Regiment directly.

This is enough to show that if Li Yunlong's army and the Sakata Regiment had the same strength, they would only be able to crush each other.

Li Yunlong smiled and continued.

"So, stop worrying about it. If you really dare to ask Brigade Commander Chen for fire support, guess what he'll say?"

Ding Wei shook his head and said nothing.

Li Yunlong said with a smile.

"He will tell you that even if a division of the Japanese army comes, they must be stopped."

"Don't forget, we are the Eighth Route Army. You are the New 1st Regiment, and I am the Independent Regiment. Whether we can make a name for ourselves depends on this time."

Ding Wei was also persuaded by Li Yunlong, so he didn't say anything more.

Wang Lin also spoke.

"This group of devils is very large. If we want to defeat them, we must not disperse our forces. If we disperse our forces, we will be defeated one by one."

"Their goal is to prevent our Independent Regiment and the New 1st Regiment from covering and destroying the railway. I think, just as Commander Ding said, we should intercept them halfway and stop their attack."

"I personally think the Independent Regiment is most suitable to be the main force, and the New 1st Regiment will help us provide cover."

When Ding Wei heard this, he immediately shook his head in objection.

"No, our new group also wants to participate."

Li Yunlong waved his hand and said.

"Alright, alright, all of you guys are here to be my main force."

"Since you all want to be the main force so much, then let's make both the Independent Regiment and the New First Regiment the main force and see who fights harder."

Ding Wei then shut up.

The plan was finalized, with the Independent Regiment and the New 1st Regiment being the main forces.

The army soon set out and headed towards the riverbed road east of Ma'anzhuang.

According to the information they received, the Japanese had to pass through the riverbed road to reach Ma'anzhuang.

Their goal this time was to block them from the riverbed road.

Fortunately, the riverbed road had been destroyed by them before, which led to the Japanese army's rapid action. Even now, they had time to reach the target location and block them.

When the independent regiment learned that they were going to fight against a large group of Japanese devils, they immediately became excited.

They have been eager to fight the Japanese.
