Bright Sword: We Li Yunlong are fighting elites

Chapter 242 Don't act rashly!

The rest of the journey went relatively smoothly, and the troops successfully arrived at the Xiantang Mountain area before dark.

At this time, the local guerrillas had been notified in advance that the main force was coming. The local guerrillas were also very happy, and immediately arranged a station for the new regiment in advance.

But they never dreamed that the main force that came would be so large, a team of [-] people.

The nearby villages simply couldn't accommodate them. Fortunately, it was summer and they could camp in the wild, so most of the troops could only choose to camp in the wild for the time being.

Early the next morning, Li Yunlong summoned the main cadres under him and held a meeting, mainly to study the next step of work.

Li Yunlong took the lead and said: "Going to the Luzhou area to open up new base areas is just one of the most important strategic deployments of our Eighth Route for a while."

"And the higher-ups entrusted such an important task to our Xinyi regiment, which is the trust in our Xinyi regiment."

"Such a good opportunity, we naturally have to seize it and strive to make meritorious service as soon as possible."

"The so-called know yourself and the enemy, and you will never be imperiled in a hundred battles. We must first understand the enemy's strength, and then formulate corresponding strategies based on the enemy's strength."

"Now, Xing Zhiguo, the deputy head of the regiment, will introduce to you the enemy situation in the Luzhou area."

After Li Yunlong finished speaking, he lit a cigarette and smoked it leisurely.

As the head of the group, you can't just talk about it by yourself during the meeting!

If you can let others say it, you should try your best to let others say it. If you have to say everything yourself, you will not be exhausted.

Xing Zhiguo went on to say: "The head of the regiment also said just now that our goal this time is the Luzhou area. There are a total of [-] counties in the Luzhou area."

"Of course, the biggest city is Luzhou City. The little devil has an independent mixed brigade stationed in the Luzhou area."

"This brigade is the Jize Brigade, and its head is Major General Yoshizawa Akira. The headquarters of the Jize Brigade is located in Luzhou City, and its troops are stationed in various places in the thirteen counties of Luzhou."

"In addition to the Jize Brigade, there are also some independent garrison teams in various places, but these troops are relatively small in strength. There are also some coal mines, and there are also little devil's garrison teams in the mines."

"All the ghost soldiers together have a strength of about [-]. More than half of them, the strongest is this Jize brigade."

"In addition to the little devils, there are still many puppet troops in the Luzhou area. According to what we have learned before, there is an army of the puppet army stationed in the Luzhou area, which is the 48th Army of the Imperial Association Army. This one The strength of the army is about [-] people."

"However, in addition to the 48th Army, there is also an independent brigade of the puppet army, four independent regiments, and a dozen independent battalions."

"Most of these troops are local hooligans, bandits and the like, who were recruited by the little devils. For example, the puppet army we encountered in the Wangzhuang stronghold, Wang Hu's battalion is a part of the puppet army. Independence Battalion."

"These independent brigades, independent regiments, and independent battalions are relatively independent and belong to different hilltops. They are basically local snakes."

"There are more than 48 people in this part of the puppet army. Adding in the [-]th army of the puppet army, the total strength of the puppet army is about [-] to [-]."

"Although most of these puppet troops are a group of mobs, they are still troops after all, and they still have some combat effectiveness."

"And after all, they have less than [-] people, so we can't underestimate them."

"The general enemy situation in the Luzhou area is like this."

Li Yunlong took a puff of cigarette and said with a smile: "There are so many enemy troops stationed in the thirteen counties of Luzhou. This shows how much the enemy attaches importance to the Luzhou area."

"Don't look at the fact that we just wiped out a division of the devils. That's because the main force is assisting in the battle, and it's not something our new regiments can win."

"So we still can't underestimate the enemy. Although the enemy's strength is far superior to ours, our new regiment is not vegetarian."

"If you can't eat it in one bite, let's eat it in several bites. Even if it is the hardest bone, we can chew it off."

"However, the strength of our new regiment has not yet fully recovered. Our most important task now is to gain a firm foothold here, train our troops, and further expand our troops."

"At the same time, we will also launch some small-scale battles to gradually consume the enemy's strength and create conditions for the final decisive battle."

"Now I set a goal for everyone. In three months at the latest, we must gnaw down this hard bone."

"So everyone should be mentally prepared in advance, and be prepared to fight big and tough battles at any time."

"Yes!"

The crowd responded in unison.

……

Luzhou City, inside the headquarters of the Jize Brigade.

Major General Akira Yoshizawa was sitting in his office looking at documents when there was an urgent knock on the door.

"Come in!"

A ghost Shao Zuo opened the door and walked in, and said to Ji Zeming respectfully: "Your Excellency, you have just received a report from the Xiangyuan garrison."

"Wangzhuang stronghold suffered a devastating blow from the enemy, and a small squad of imperial troops stationed at the stronghold were all shattered."

"Nani?"

Ji Zeming couldn't help but widen his eyes in surprise, and asked quickly: "Who did it? Did you find out?"

The ghost Shao Zuo quickly said: "The investigation has basically been clear, it is Li Yunlong's new group."

"Li Yunlong?"

Ji Zeming's face changed slightly, he was too familiar with this name.

Now the senior generals of the devils have basically heard of Li Yunlong's name.

Especially the little devils stationed in Shanxi, they couldn't be more familiar with the name Li Yunlong.

Ji Zeming frowned and asked, "Aren't they in the Heyuan area? Why did they come to Xiangyuan?"

The devil Shao Zuo continued: "The specific reason is still unclear, but we have found out that after they destroyed the Wangzhuang stronghold, they did not return to the Taiyue area, but rushed to the Xiantang Mountain area, where they are currently stationed. nearby."

"Xiantang Mountain?"

Ji Zeming got up quickly, came to the huge map on the wall, stared at the map, and said thoughtfully: "It seems that these Tuba roads are planning to stay in the Xiantang Mountain area for a long time?"

The ghost Shao Zuo replied: "This possibility is not ruled out for the time being."

Ji Zeming went on to say: "Li Yunlong suddenly led troops into Xiantang Mountain. Is this a signal?"

"It means that the enemy army is ready to attack the entire Luzhou area. The Luzhou area is sandwiched between Taihang Mountain and Taiyue Mountain, dividing their two bases into two halves."

"What will happen if the enemy army captures the Luzhou area? The two bases can be connected together, which is quite beneficial to the development of the enemy army."

The devil, Shao Zuo, quickly said: "Your Excellency, the enemy army would have the guts to attack the entire Luzhou area?"

Ji Zeming said: "If it was before, they would definitely not dare, because they didn't have the strength at all, but now it's not necessarily the case."

"The just-concluded Ping An War has already proved their strength. Recently, the forces of these earth-eight roads have expanded rapidly."

"The [-] imperial troops were surrounded and wiped out in the Ping'an area by them. This is enough to show that their strength is already quite terrifying."

"That's why Li Yunlong's troops are just their vanguard troops, who came to fight the front. Once they are fully prepared, they will definitely attack the entire Luzhou area."

The ghost Shao Zuo asked: "Your Excellency, if this is the case, our current situation is not good. If the enemy really concentrates the main force to besiege us, we may fall into the enemy's heavy encirclement."

Ji Zeming's expression became extremely serious at the moment, and he said thoughtfully: "From the perspective of the overall situation, we have already gone deep alone, and the Luzhou area has a special terrain, which is between two mountain ranges. "

"The imperial army in the south has not fully controlled it, so it is equivalent to being surrounded on three sides."

"Once they cut off the main route to Jinzhong from the north, we will be completely surrounded by the enemy."

"Li Yunlong directly settled in Xiantang Mountain, and it is estimated that he was also preparing for this. Once they have a firm foothold, they can send troops from Xiantang Mountain to cut off the Tailu Highway. In this way, we can basically cut off our connection with Jinzhong."

"In this way, we are completely surrounded by the enemy."

"Before, they didn't have such strength, we didn't have to worry at all, but now they have enough strength, our situation has become dangerous."

The devil Shao Zuo quickly asked: "Then what should we do? Should we take the initiative to drive Li Yunlong's Xinyi regiment out of the Xiantang Mountain area, and drive them out when they are not stable? Can this passive situation be avoided?"

Ji Zeming couldn't help but sighed, and said: "Li Yunlong's new regiment is powerful, and these local gangsters are very cunning. We take the initiative to attack and go deep into the mountains. We may not be their opponents."

"If you are a little careless, you may end up with a defeat, so don't act rashly."

Ji Zeming, an old devil, is still relatively cautious, and with Li Yunlong's prestige in full swing, Ji Zeming dare not take the initiative to provoke Li Yunlong easily.

Especially now that they don't know Li Yunlong's specific strength, they will definitely not get any benefits if they attack rashly.

Akira Yoshizawa is very clear about this.

The devil, Shao Zuo, said with some dissatisfaction: "If you don't take the initiative to attack, wouldn't it be a missed opportunity, and you can only sit and wait for death."

"Baga~!"

Ji Zeming said angrily: "What does it mean to sit and wait for death, how can the imperial army sit and wait for death?"

"Hay!"

The devil's young assistant said respectfully: "Your Majesty General, forgive me for making a mistake in my humble position."

Ji Zeming continued: "It's just that the enemy's situation is unknown now, and the opponent is still Li Yunlong. We must not act rashly."
