Anti-Japanese War: A district team with more than 100 million soldiers!

"whats the matter?"

Seeing Qin Long's serious face, Old Li realized that the matter might not be simple and asked hurriedly.

"It's like this, we encountered the Japanese yesterday..."

Soon, Qin Long concisely recounted the story of how he completely wiped out the Japanese tank squadron yesterday.

Then he stood up and took out the general's sword from the box at the head of the kang.

"Also, although it was just a small Japanese tank squadron, the leader was a brigade commander with the rank of major general."

Old Li, Old Sun and Old Yu were stunned for a moment when they saw the general's sword that Qin Long threw on the table!

Oh my god! What did they see?!

A captured general's sword!

This is a general's sword!

Since the start of the full-scale war of resistance in 37, the number of generals’ swords seized by our army and the national army combined can probably be counted on one hand!

"Captain Qin, are you going to hand in this general's sword as well? That would be a huge contribution!"

Old Li said to Qin Long with a serious face:

"So I suggest you hand it over in person."

"No, that's not what I'm talking about."

However, Qin Long shook his head.

Old Li looked at Qin Long with a questioning look on his face.

Qin Long picked up the general's sword:

"According to Comrade Wei Qiang's earlier statement, this Japanese tank squadron was specifically sent to escort the convoy to the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold."

"Then the question is, how important is the material to require an entire tank convoy to escort it? And a brigade commander leading it, too?"

"Captain Qin, you mean..."

As an intelligence officer, Lao Li's professional sensitivity allowed him to grasp the key point at once!

"Yes! Judging from what the Japanese did in Laohuzhuang before, they were obviously testing the power of biological weapons."

Qin Long nodded:

"So I concluded that what the Japanese transported to the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold must not be good stuff. It is most likely related to biological weapons."

"Now that you put it, it aligns with the information I have."

Old Li quite agrees with Qin Long's idea:

"I've received intelligence a long time ago that the Japanese have developed a new secret weapon and plan to use it in the encirclement and suppression campaign."

"Combined with your analysis, Captain Qin, the weapons the Japanese were transporting to the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold must have been these!"

"It seems that if we want to know whether this matter is true, we have to take over Xiaowangzhuang."

Qin Long finally decided to take over the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold.

Regarding this, the three commissioners, Lao Li, Lao Sun and Lao Yu, did not object.

Are you kidding! The three of them have been exposed to all kinds of intelligence for years, so they must be knowledgeable, right?!

Not to mention anything else, just one of those tanks can knock down an entire Japanese tank squad, and with some infantry, it can even flatten the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold!

So they had no doubt about Qin Long's words.

"Captain Qin, the three of us discussed last night and decided to relocate our secret contact point to Stone Village. Is that okay with you?"

Old Li suddenly remembered what the three of them discussed yesterday and asked.

After all, Qin Long is now the highest military commander of the Shitou Village troops, so he has to ask.

"That's great!"

Qin Long was more than happy to do this. With a secret contact point, it would be more convenient to contact the higher-ups in the future.

Seeing that Qin Long agreed without hesitation, Lao Li, Lao Sun and Lao Yu looked at each other, their expressions obviously relaxed a lot.

"In that case."

Old Li also knew that Qin Long still had a lot of things to do, so he said:

"Then let's go make arrangements for the secret contact point. Captain Qin, is there anything you need to report to your superiors?"

"No."

As Qin Long spoke, he picked up the general's sword and threw it to Lao Li:

"We also seized a deputy officer's sword from Lao Hu Zhuang. Old Li, take some time to ask Da Shan for it."

"Please ask the comrades who come to transport the surrendered supplies to take these two knives with them and turn them in together."

"Okay, let's go first."

Old Li didn't say anything more. He took the general's sword and left with Old Sun and Old Yu.

Qin Long naturally noticed all the changes in the three people's expressions.

However, Qin Long could understand it. After all, the weapons and equipment of his team were so sophisticated that it was indeed beyond the scope.

As intelligence officers, it's normal for Lao Li, Lao Sun, and Lao Yu to think too much...

After the three commissioners left, Qin Long immediately called Shuisheng, Tiezhu and Dashan and asked them to cooperate with Zhao Dezhu in recruiting soldiers.

"Remember, we must make our troops' food quota known."

Qin Long gave instructions to Shuisheng and the other two.

"Don't worry, Captain! Not to mention all the delicious food, even if we have to eat steamed buns, the villagers will be eager to join the army!"

Shuisheng felt that Qin Long's actions were unnecessary, so he simply pulled Tiezhu and Dashan and ran to find Zhao Dezhu.

Sure enough, Qin Long still underestimated the enthusiasm of the villagers to fight the Japanese.

This is Zhao Dezhu's side.

When the villagers of Laohuzhuang heard that Qin Long wanted to recruit soldiers from among them to fight the Japanese, they immediately became excited and asked to sign up to join the army.

More than 500 people managed to recruit 150 soldiers!

Qin Long didn't expect that he could recruit so many people, so he discussed it with Lao Li and Zhao Dezhu.

Excluding those families with only one son, there are also some families that are not married and have children.

In the end, only 100 people were recruited into Qin Long's team.

接着秦龙按照每门博福斯M1930 75mm山炮需要炮长1人、炮手10人算，先提出44人编入炮兵1连。

Then, Qin Long selected another 18 people to complete the number of Artillery Company 2.

Then Qin Long assigned 1 ammunition handlers and porters to each gun of Artillery Company 5, totaling 20 people.

That leaves only 18 people.

The key is to select another 8 people to convey orders and learn surveying and observation from Yang Zhihua.

After all, Qin Long is going to form a heavy artillery regiment in the future. Now, with the Bofors M1930 75mm mountain gun having a range of more than 9000 meters, Yang Zhihua can still barely rely on a telescope to command the artillery coordinates.

When we have 155mm heavy artillery in the future, with a range of more than ten to twenty kilometers, we will definitely need observers to assist Yang Zhihua.

Therefore, these personnel have now been compressed to the maximum extent.

按照正常编制，一个4门博福斯M1930 75mm山炮的炮兵连，那得100到200人才能正常运转。

Fortunately, Qin Long had Sharma, which saved a lot of moving staff.

Adding Yang Zhihua to the mix saved a lot of observers, and only 72 people were able to get a battery of four Bofors M4 1930mm mountain guns up and running...

As for the remaining 10 people, they were of course incorporated into the infantry.

After making the arrangements, Qin Long summarized the number of people in his current team.

40 infantrymen.

10 armored soldiers.

108 artillerymen plus Yang Zhihua, 109 people.

Yes, there are already 159 people.

At this time, Qin Long wanted to have a "battle of wits".

I remember when my team just started!

There were only about a dozen people in total, seven or eight guns...

While Qin Long was busy recruiting soldiers, a group of Japanese soldiers arrived at the place where the Japanese tank squad was wiped out yesterday.

The leader of the team was none other than the brigade chief of staff of Watanabe Tou, Tanaka Noshita.

"Your Excellency, Chief of Staff, we have found Brigadier General Watanabe, but he has already died serving the Empire."

After a few Japanese soldiers explored the surrounding area, they reported to Tanaka Noshita:

"Judging from the traces, Brigadier General Watanabe and his tank squad were probably destroyed by enemy tanks."

"The traces left by the enemy tanks are very obvious. We can follow the traces to find the enemy tanks."

"吆西!"

Tanaka Noshita, who was almost unable to suppress his inner joy, ordered with a stern face:

"Follow the traces. We must avenge Captain Watanabe!"

"Hi!"

The Japanese soldiers under Tanaka Noshige lowered their heads heavily, then followed the tracks of the T-34/85 tanks and walked towards the Stone Village...
