Chapter 349 Support

At this time, Political Commissar Yuan interjected: "Let me tell you directly, yesterday a Japanese reconnaissance plane crashed and flew to the territory of our independent regiment. I think everyone knows about it."

Everyone naturally nodded. They all had a quarrel about the distribution of the two heavy machine guns plus the Japanese heavy machine guns. In the end, Captain Gu established a new fire platoon and temporarily solved the problem.

Political Commissar Yuan continued: "On the crashed Japanese plane, there were not only two Japanese heavy machine guns, but also a Japanese radio station and a code book."

"After I accepted and translated it, the situation inside was surprising."

Captain Gu looked at Political Commissar Yuan and said: "Old Yuan, don't think about it, just say it directly, I will make the comrades anxious."

Political Commissar Yuan: "Comrades, the situation inside is very urgent. Have you noticed that this time the Japanese raids, although the troops were deployed quite quickly, they did not have the tough offensive capabilities in the past and basically just left at a touch."

"At first, I thought it was because the strength of our independent group had greatly increased, and the posture of some of the main groups made the Japanese a little afraid of us."

"After this sweep, not only did we not suffer much loss, but our weapons and equipment have been greatly expanded. I am still a little complacent, thinking that we have completed the party's mission."

"Now it seems that this is not the case at all. According to the Japanese radio intelligence, the Japanese raids on our Taihang Military Region this time are fake, and the attack on the newly established Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is real."

There was an immediate buzz in the audience, and many people whispered: "This time the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is in danger. What, do we need support, what resources, etc."

Political Commissar Yuan saw the mood of the comrades in the audience asking for war, and he was determined and said: "Comrades, be quiet, be quiet."

After no one spoke, Political Commissar Yuan said: "Since we know that the targets of the Japanese are all revolutionary comrades, we in the Taihang Military Region must help."

Immediately there were shouts of "Give an order" and "Resolutely complete the task."

After the scene became quieter, political commissar Yuan glanced at Captain Gu, who stood up and said: "Comrades, the Party has considered that our independent regiment was the first to discover the enemy's intelligence."

"Coupled with the actual situation that after the enemy's sweep, the independent regiment's establishment not only did not shrink, but expanded a lot, the party organization decided to hand over part of the task of supporting the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to us."

Comrades are naturally in high spirits.

Captain Gu continued: "Comrades, the party organization has considered that the main purpose of our mission is to attract the attention of the Japanese and reduce the pressure on the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region."

"So the following decision has been made. I know that many of you sitting here came from Commander Chen's 386th Brigade. Naturally, you also know the name of the 386th Brigade among the Japanese."

"So the party organization decided to let our independent regiment impersonate the 772nd Regiment of the 386th Brigade and go south to join the Jinan Military Region to defeat part of the Japanese siege."

When the comrades heard that they could not raise the banner of the Independent League, they were a little aggrieved. However, considering that this was a decision made by the party organization, it was hard to say anything, but they had already made a decision in their hearts to fight.

Soon, Commander Gu began to arrange tasks again. Considering this long-distance support mission, Commander Gu decided to only bring the 1st and 2nd Battalions plus most of the troops of the regiment's security company and reconnaissance platoon.

Since the Third Battalion had more recruits and was still undergoing training, and its combat effectiveness was low, it stayed behind at the Xishan base area together with the logistics troops.

As for weapons, this time the whole regiment dispatched nearly 900 people, and all the soldiers on the sixth floor were issued firearms, ensuring that two out of three people had hot weapons. This is really a treatment only for the main force of the Eighth Route Army.

Four wooden handle grenades per person, twenty bullets for new recruits, and forty bullets for veterans were all distributed.

As for heavy weapons, the entire regiment had nine Czech-style light machine guns and four crooked-handled light machine guns, except for one that was broken.

The two newly captured extended heavy machine guns were not carried because they were too heavy and would cause problems with the speed of movement.

In order to enhance the firepower of the independent regiment, one of the two Type 20 82 mortars was taken away with 40 rounds of ammunition.

On the other hand, the Independent Regiment has five Japanese grenade launchers, and Commander Gu has brought them all. Two of them are evenly assigned to his first and second battalions, and the third is assigned directly to the regiment headquarters.

After knowing that one mortar, three grenades, and five light machine guns were all captured by him, Xie Yu felt indescribably happy.

Thinking of the role of the gourd mark, Xie Yu volunteered to lead the reconnaissance platoon and explore the way forward.

Commander Gu knew that Xie Yu could use a grenade, so he gave Xie Yu another grenade, four special grenade grenades, and eight Japanese-style 91 grenades, and let Xie Yu set out to explore the road.

Already.

As for the others, they also quickly started to go back and prepare. It should be a direct order from the Special Committee this time. Comrades do not need to prepare too much dry food. The independent regiment first went to the Special Committee to replenish some logistics materials before they detoured to the south of the wing.

action.

Xie Yu did not care about the preparations of the other comrades of the Independent Regiment. Although the reconnaissance platoon not only numbered fifty people, they were all veterans and could be considered the elite of the Independent Regiment.

Xie Yu first took them to Lao Cui from the Logistics Department. He first ensured that each of them had four wooden handle grenades and fifty rounds of ammunition for their rifles. After getting some shell gun ammunition, they set off.

As for the bastard box of bullets, Xie Yu seized a lot of them from the pilot and did not take any more.

At this time, Xie Yu suddenly remembered the Browning pistol, and asked the reconnaissance platoon leader to lead the soldiers to get some dry food, and then returned to the regiment headquarters to deliver the Browning pistol and the matching 30 rounds of ammunition.

Gave it to Political Commissar Yuan.

Political Commissar Yuan naturally liked it very much, so he secretly told Xie Yu a few times, and asked Xie Yu to set off quickly.

Then Xie Yuxian led the prepared reconnaissance platoon soldiers and quickly headed eastward.

After being contacted by a local comrade, Xie Yu first contacted the local guerrillas under the leadership of the local comrade, and then quickly collected intelligence on the road.

After Xie Yu personally conducted several more investigations, he passed the general information back to the Independent Regiment.

By the time the order from the independent regiment came through, Xie Yu had already led the reconnaissance platoon and local guerrilla comrades to fight several small battles.

They are mainly reconnaissance teams of the puppet army and maintain armed forces. These armed forces are not strong in combat effectiveness and do not have a firm will to fight.

But they are familiar with the local situation, and they are quite powerful against the local guerrillas who only have a few indigenous guns, broadswords and red tassels.

It's a pity that they met Xie Yu.

Xie Yu first used the 38 big cover to pass through the gourd mark and kill those threatening reactionaries. The other enemies immediately surrendered.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance platoon and the comrades of the local guerrillas also looked at Xie Yu in surprise. Why did they feel that these enemies were completely different from the usual ones, and how they seemed to be made of paper.

After the soldiers fired three shots, they surrendered as soon as they charged the enemy.

Only a few of the soldiers were sprained because they rushed too fast, and none of them received a counterattack from the enemy.

It was not as smooth as Hua's. Thirteen short guns and more than thirty rifles were seized.

After Xie Yu discussed with the local guerrillas, they divided the firearms equally.

Of course, since the reconnaissance platoon soldiers had no shortage of firearms, Xie Yu temporarily lent these firearms to the guerrillas.

The local guerrillas took the initiative to cooperate with Xie Yu's actions, and even local comrades began to ask the village militia to follow Xie Yu's actions.

Xie Yu frowned, but Xie Yu, who had participated in operations to sweep away and relocate the masses, knew the hard work of local comrades, so he didn't say anything.
