"Do it! Do it to the end!"
Everyone raised their fists in agreement.
……
Two days later, Chen Ming, Ouyang Guangming, Zhang Dali, Zhao Dequan, Liu Zheping, Xu Ming and the others arrived here one after another.
The army of the Huben regiment officially joined forces.
During the long-distance journey of more than half a month, in order to avoid the blockade of the Japanese army, they took almost all mountain trails.
Therefore, even for the officers and soldiers of the Huben Regiment who possess Daliwan, it is a great test.
Everyone's physical exertion is very high.
Therefore, Yang Chen gave the army two days off.
Of course, Chen Ming and his Dragon Soul Brigade were not among them.
The reconnaissance battalion has been wiped out, and Xu Hailang has become a polished commander.
Therefore, the task of reconnaissance intelligence naturally fell on them.
On this day, after eating a breakfast consisting of steamed buns and porridge from the cooking team, Yang Chen sent Pa Er and Ouyang Qing to call Wang Gui, Liao Yong, Liu Zheping and all the senior members of the Huben Group over.
He decided to put the plan of establishing a base and expanding the team on the agenda today.
…………
…………
Chapter 950 The First Battle of Xinxiang: The Center Blooms (First Update!)
Not long after receiving the notification, Wang Gui, Liao Yong, Xu Hailang, and Liu Zheping all rushed over.
The current Huben Regiment is temporarily stationed in an unnamed mountain village in the southwest of Xinxiang County.
Of course, the so-called nameless does not mean that this mountain village has no name, but that there is no one in the village, so Yang Chen and others naturally have no way of knowing the name of the mountain village.
The headquarters of the Huben Regiment is located in the village, inside the largest private house.
The conference table is made up of two worn-out long wooden tables. The wooden table has been around for a long time. When it is touched lightly, it makes a non-stop "creaking" sound, as if it is about to fall apart.
Put a few long benches on the side.
After Wang Gui, Liao Yong and the others walked in, Yang Chen greeted, "Sit down, I'm looking for you to come over today, mainly to discuss our next establishment of base areas and expansion and reorganization of the team."
After everyone sat down one after another, Yang Chen asked about the current situation of the troops.
Wang Gui replied with a rather disappointed face: "In the previous Jianghuai battle, although we severely damaged the Japanese army, we delayed the speed and pace of the Japanese army's advance to the southwest.
However, the casualties of our Huben regiment were also very serious. Among them, the entire reconnaissance battalion was wiped out, and the entire supply battalion was also wiped out.
The rest of the battalions also suffered varying degrees of casualties.
Now the total strength of the Huben Regiment is less than 2000, less than a quarter of the original strength.
In particular, the loss of weapons and equipment was also great, and all kinds of strategic heavy artillery were almost completely lost.
Ammunition is also seriously low.
At the same time, the emergency medicines of each battalion were also used up in the previous battle.
The remaining food may not last for 5 days. "
Yang Chen frowned slightly, and said solemnly: "Now it seems that we lack everything, and there is nothing left to do."
"Yes, now can be said to be the most difficult time for our Huben regiment!" Wang Gui nodded approvingly.
Then he continued: "Tuan Zuo, now that we have arrived in Xinxiang, now we are only separated from Shanxi by a mountain.
At the beginning, Chief Yan had personally promised that as long as we returned to Shanxi, he would do everything possible to help our Huben Regiment rebuild.
In my opinion, why did we continue to cross the Taihang Mountains westward to seek the help of Chief Yan. "
"Shanxi?"
Yang Chen paused: "We will go back to Shanxi, but not now."
At the moment, Yang Chen told everyone about the strategic position of Xinxiang again.
When everyone heard this, their eyes lit up immediately, Wang Gui said: "Tuan Zuo, what do you mean, we want to take Xinxiang?"
"Xinxiang is a necessary station on the Ping-Han railway line. Taking Xinxiang will not only cut off the Japanese army's troop transport line from northeast to southwest, as well as the grain transport line.
Most importantly, Xinxiang was a transit station for the Japanese army on the Ping-Han Line. There was a huge arsenal and grain depot built in the city.
As long as we win Xinxiang, all the urgent needs of our Huben regiment will be solved. "
Everyone's eyes were shining again, how did the Huben Group make their fortune?That is by war.
Therefore, even if the Huben regiment is short of supplies at this time, its strength is seriously insufficient.They didn't have the slightest fear, on the contrary they felt very excited.
"Tuan Zuo, tell me, what are we going to do?"
The fiery Li Jiufu asked eagerly.
Yang Chen didn't speak, but turned to look at Chen Ming.
Chen Ming understood, stood up and said, "Report to the delegation, because Taka Saito was assassinated, and the Japanese army in Xinxiang is under a high degree of martial law at this time.
There are checkpoints and strongholds on every major traffic road, and strict checks are carried out on people passing by.
Therefore, attacking Xinxiang at this time does not seem to be a wise move. "
Yang Chen smiled disapprovingly: "Chen Ming, you seem to have miscalculated a bit.
In order to search for the traces of me and Xu Hailang, the little devil sent most of the troops abroad, so the county must be empty of troops.
Therefore, this time is the best time to win the county seat. "
"But... Tuan Zuo, the devils have set up checkpoints everywhere. It doesn't seem easy for us to approach the county seat quietly." Chen Ming expressed his concern.
Yang Chen said: "It may be difficult for a large army to approach the county, but a small army shouldn't be a problem, right?"
After saying this, Yang Chen's eyes narrowed, his whole body exuded an awe-inspiring aura, and he said suddenly: "Chen Ming, I don't care what method you use, within two days, you must open up a direct road to the county seat!"
"Yes! Guaranteed to complete the task!"
