Chapter 871: Grow and Grow


Sun Tao couldn't help but show a smug smile, and his head involuntarily raised higher, like a rooster that has won a fight.Li Guotao shook his head with a smile and said, "Yes, the Baxian County Brigade has indeed developed well in recent times.But this is far from enough, not to mention that more than half of your five hundred recruits, even if they are elite veterans with combat experience, do you think you can form an independent regiment with your little people" "Independent Regiment" Sun Tao couldn't help but open his mouth in surprise, according to the regulations at that time, after the county brigade reached a certain scale, it could be approved by the higher authorities to be reorganized into an independent regiment, but if you want to establish a county independent regiment, you also need to reach a scale of at least a thousand people, in fact, the Baxian County Brigade has just been established for only three months, The strength has always been very weak before, and Sun Tao never dreamed of expanding into an independent regiment, so he was so surprised when he heard Li Guotao say this.Li Guotao shook his head with a smile and said: "What's the matter, don't you think it's okay" Sun Tao reacted at this time, and asked with a smile: "Chief, can we really expand into an independent regiment" Li Guotao nodded with a smile and said: "Of course, as long as you can meet the conditions, I can apply to your superiors for you, according to my plan, your county brigade must be expanded into an independent regiment as soon as possible." ”"That's great, the chief is assured that we will definitely recruit more recruits as soon as possible and meet the requirements as soon as possible."

Sun Tao said excitedly.Li Guotao shook his head and said: "Don't be in a hurry, what I want is an independent regiment with strong combat effectiveness, not a rabble that is just cobbled together by numbers."

Therefore, this matter is not rushed, and your current task is to train this newly recruited group of recruits as soon as possible to become excellent soldiers who can go to the battlefield to fight tough battles. ”"It's a guarantee to get the job done."

Sun Tao said excitedly.Li Guotao nodded with satisfaction, and then continued: "Recently, I have also had a general understanding of the strength of the anti-Japanese armed forces in the counties of our Pingnan area, and I summoned you to a meeting this time to give you a task.In the next month, the armed engineering teams and guerrilla units of Yongqing, Gu'an, and Xincheng counties will complete their reorganization and form their own county brigades.For this reason, I will give you some weapons and equipment, and I will send instructors to help you with training, so that the county brigades and even district squads in each county can be established as soon as possible, and have a certain combat effectiveness. ”"Great, we are also going to set up our own county brigades," as soon as Li Guotao finished speaking, the guerrilla leaders of the three counties just mentioned couldn't help but cheer."

Then what about our Zhuozhou," at this time, the captain of the Zhuozhou Martial Arts Team suddenly stood up and asked.Li Guotao said with a smile: "In view of the weak strength of the anti-Japanese armed forces in Zhuozhou, there is only one of you, and the number of people is limited, so we will not set up our own county brigade for the time being."

But don't be discouraged, I will also allocate some weapons and equipment to you, and I will send a group of outstanding comrades to Zhuozhou to assist you, as soon as possible to develop and strengthen our anti-Japanese armed forces in Zhuozhou, as long as the time is ripe, Zhuozhou will also set up its own county brigade, and even an independent regiment. ”"Great, please rest assured that we will definitely not disappoint the trust and expectations of the chief, and promise to develop and strengthen the anti-Japanese armed forces in Zhuozhou as soon as possible."

The captain of the martial arts team said excitedly.This military conference was very successful, and in the following month.The Baxian County Brigade has been seizing the time to conduct training, and the combat effectiveness of the unit has been markedly enhanced.The county brigades of Yongqing, Gu'an, and Xincheng counties have also been established successively, although their strength is still weak, but they are also gradually developing and growing, and the county brigades in Zhuozhou have also begun to be formed.In addition, militia organizations have sprung up in various places.In short, the construction of the new base area is in full swing, and the situation of the anti-Japanese war in the Pingnan area is also booming.The Eighth Route Army's work in the Pingnan area is progressing so smoothly because in the recent period, the little devils have not launched a major offensive against the Pingnan area.Because after a detailed investigation, the little devil finally got the exact news that the Eighth Route Army that entered the Pingnan area only had about one regiment of troops, although the little devil suffered a big loss here before, losing more than a brigade of troops, it still failed to attract enough attention from Sugiyama Yuan.Because at this time, Sugiyama Yuan mobilized the main force of the Japanese army in North China and was carrying out a large-scale sweep of the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the Taihang Mountains, so although the Eighth Route Army in the Pingnan area was under his nose, the little devils did not have the energy to deal with them for the time being.Of course, the little devil was not inactive, and allowed the Eighth Route Army to develop and grow in the Pingnan area.After all, this place is too close to Beiping, and this Eighth Route Army is like a fish bone stuck in the throat for the little devils, which can not be swallowed, and makes them very uncomfortable.But the little devils will not let them gradually grow stronger, on the contrary, during this time, the devil defenders stationed in the Pingnan area have never been idle.Although the little devil did not launch a large-scale attack, during this time, the little devil was constantly building turret strongholds at various strategic points in the Pingnan area.It also continued to implement a high-pressure policy to intimidate the local people and refuse to provide support to the Eighth Route Army, so as to achieve the goal of restricting the development of the Eighth Route Army.These measures of the little devils have indeed brought a lot of trouble to the Eighth Route Army, especially the artillery strongholds built by the little devils, which are like nails pierced in the Pingnan area, bringing great threats to the Eighth Route Army and the local people.Therefore, Li Guotao ordered all troops to attack decisively, pull out these thorns in the eyes and thorns in the flesh, and completely eliminate hidden dangers.So the special combat team, the New Seventh Regiment, and the county brigades attacked one after another and launched a large-scale sabotage battle against the little devils.In just a few days, with the cooperation of the local militia, the units of the Eighth Route Army uprooted more than 20 artillery strongholds of the little devils in one fell swoop, wiped out more than 300 Japanese soldiers and more than 1,000 puppet soldiers, and seized a large amount of weapons and equipment.It not only solved these hidden dangers, but also greatly boosted the anti-Japanese morale of the local people, so that the local anti-Japanese armed forces have been further developed and strengthened.aa2705221:
