I am a wolf warrior

Li Xiaoxian took the telegram and said to Ding Wei: "Leader, Captain Li invites you and Captain Kong to go to Zhaojiayu for a drink."

"Drink?" Ding Wei said with a smile, "It must be for anti-mopping up, Chief of Staff, didn't you just say that our weapons and equipment still have gaps?"

"Yes." Li Xiao first said, "At least five hundred rifles are missing."

Ding Wei said: "This time I go to Zhaojiayu, I must get back five hundred rifles."

"You want to get a gun from Captain Li?" Li Xiaoxian shook his head and said, "Impossible, it's absolutely impossible, everyone in Northwest Shanxi doesn't know that Captain Li is a wealthy native of Shanxi, and he can only take advantage of it."

"Don't believe me?" Ding Wei smiled, "Then let's wait and see."

After a pause, he rushed out the door and said, "Mouse, prepare your horse!"

……

Yuan'ao Town, Headquarters of the New Second Regiment.

Guan Dashan walked quickly into the regiment headquarters.

"Old Guan?" Kong Jie asked, "What did Xie Baoqing say?"

Guan Dashan waved his hand and said nothing, grabbed the teapot on the table and poured it directly to the spout.

It wasn't until he finished drinking a pot of herbal tea that he wiped his mouth and said, "Commander, I feel that Xie Baoqing is unreliable. He said he was willing to accept reform and fight against Japanese devils, but he never actually took any action."

Kong Jie said, "Don't worry, as long as he has this attitude, that's fine."

After a pause, he said again: "The conditions cannot be negotiated for the time being, so let's talk slowly."

"But the problem is that his conditions are too restrictive." Guan Dashan said, "Not to mention the establishment of an independent brigade, and the fact that he is not allowed to send political cadres to the independent brigade, what does he want to do? He wants to build an independent kingdom! "

"It is impossible not to send political cadres." Kong Jie said, "The party leads the gun, this is the principle."

"That's why I said that this guy is not sincere." Guan Dashan said, "He is playing with us."

"No." Kong Jie waved his hand and said, "I guess Xie Baoqing also has concerns. It doesn't matter if he has concerns. As long as our Eighth Route Army treats each other with sincerity, one day he will dispel his concerns."

Speaking of this meal, he said again: "Let's not talk about Xie Baoqing first."

"Go and call the political commissar, let's talk about the expansion."

"About the expansion?" Guan Dashan said, "What is there to discuss?"

"As big a pot as you want, you can use as much rice as you want, and it depends on the amount of our equipment."

"I estimate that our new second regiment should be able to expand to 2000 people this time, right?"

While talking, the telegraph soldier came in with a telegram and reported: "Regimental Commander, Commander Li has an urgent call."

Kong Jie took a look at the telegram, and said with a smile: "Li Yunlong, the boy, said he invited me and Lao Ding to drink. I guess he must be the teacher's addiction again, and he wants to arrange combat missions for me and Lao Ding."

Guan Dashan chuckled and said, "Commander Li is really addicted to being an official."

"Old Guan, we'll talk about the expansion when I come back from Zhaojiayu."

Kong Jie said, "Butcher, prepare your horse."

……

Beiping Iron Lion Alley NO.11.

Japanese North China Front Command.

Not long after the Battle of Zhongtiaoshan ended, Ningji Okamura plunged headlong into the planning of sweeping operations against the Central and Southern Hebei Military Regions of the Eighth Route Army. He has been busy with this matter recently.

Staring at the map, Ningji Okamura asked, "Have the prisoners of war in Zhongtiao Mountain arrived?"

The Deputy Chief of Staff You Mojing said hurriedly: "More than 5 prisoners of war have been taken to the Central Hebei area one after another."

"Yoxi." Neiji Okamura nodded and said, "Then let's start the iron wall encirclement. This time the iron wall encirclement must be strict with the highest standards, and we can't be as perfunctory as before."

"Hayi!" You Mojing nodded three times.

At this time, a communications staff officer walked in.

Chief of Staff Moritake Tanabe took the telegram and read it, his face immediately collapsed.

"Tanabe-kun." Ningji Okamura frowned slightly and asked, "Is there any question?"

Tanabe Shengwu paused slightly and said: "Your Excellency, this is a telegram from the First Army stationed in Shanxi, saying that the Beize Battalion has collectively smashed jade last night."

"Nani?" Neiji Okamura was stunned when he heard this.

Yousue Seizo and the dozen or so combat staff officers in the combat hall also looked at each other in blank dismay.

Isn't this too sudden?Without any mental preparation, the Kitazawa brigade was suddenly wiped out?

After a while, Okamura Ningji said with a dark face: "Tanabe-kun, what's going on? If I remember correctly, the First Army doesn't seem to have any combat operations during this time, right?"

"Your Excellency, the whole incident is like this."

Tanabe Moritake told the whole story from the beginning.

"Bage Yalu." Neiji Okamura continued to say with a dark face.

"First the Yamamoto Brigade, and then the Kitazawa Brigade. The empire has mobilized so much manpower, material and financial resources, and spent so much energy and time, but the end result, is that all?"

"When I was not in the army, I was so hyped that I was omnipotent."

"But as soon as he moved his hands, he was defeated in a snap! One defeat can be called an accident, but two times?"

"In vain, I also placed high hopes on the Beize Brigade, expecting them to play a decisive role in the anti-sweeping operations in Northwest Shanxi, and then transfer them to the Jizhong battlefield."

"But in the end, hum! It's so unbearable!"

Speaking of this meal, Neiji Okamura said with disappointment: "It seems that special operations are not as magical as the Western military circles boasted, and I think the effect is actually very limited."

"What your Excellency said is very true." Moritake Tanabe echoed.

"Modern special operations theory originated in Germany, and the German special forces are also considered to be the strongest."

"However, in the Sea Lion project, the German special forces do not seem to have played a big role."

"It only bombed a few radar stations, and was annihilated by the British militia and police. In the end, it did not have a decisive impact on the Great Air Battle in England. The Luftwaffe was still defeated."

"The performance of the German special forces on the Soviet-German battlefield was also poor."

"For example, in the battle of the Brest Fortress, the German army invested in the Brandenburg Special Forces, trying to cooperate with the 45th Division to decapitate the defenders of the fortress, although in the end the German army won,"

"But the beheading by the Special Forces of Brandenburg failed."

"But the special forces are not useless." Arisue Seizo retorted.

"At least the special forces of the Eighth Route Army caused a lot of trouble for the imperial army, didn't they?"

"Then can we draw such a conclusion?" Moritake Tanabe mused, "The strong combat effectiveness of the special forces must be brought into play with the help of external forces, such as home court advantage."

"The special forces of the Eighth Route Army are fighting at home, so they performed well on the battlefield."

"However, the Yamamoto Brigade, the Kitazawa Brigade, and even the German Brandenburg Special Forces were all away from home. There was no intelligence support or strong fire support, so their performance was not good."

"This..." Yousue Jingsan was speechless for a moment.

He always felt that Moritake Tanabe was wrong, but he couldn't refute it.

Because at least on the surface, what Moritake Tanabe said was not wrong.

"Forget it, you don't have to argue." Neiji Okamura took off his glasses, rubbed his eyes tiredly, and said, "The theory of special operations must be advanced, and the formation of special forces is also necessary, but for the current stage As far as the imperial army is concerned, it may not be the best option, especially now that the empire's resources are so scarce."

"So, let's talk about the training of special forces later."

"Now, let's think about how to strengthen the mopping up operations."

After a pause, Ningji Okamura snorted again: "I originally thought that after annihilating the Chinese Army on Zhongtiao Mountain, the Shanxi First Army would be able to free up three divisions, and then they would be able to The strong wind swept the fallen leaves and easily destroyed the Jinsui Army huddled in a corner of western Shanxi and the Eighth Route Army scattered throughout Shanxi."

"Then, the First Army will be able to send troops to support the Front Army Command."

"However, from now on, this is just a luxury after all."

"Even if the First Army is not restrained by the Zhongtiao Mountain China Army, it is still in the mud."

"The sweep of the Central Hebei and the Southern Hebei Eighth Route Army can only be based on the troops directly under the Front Army. The First Army in Shanxi, the No.12 Army in Shandong, and the Mongolian Army must not be counted on."

"Hayi!" All the devils paused in unison.

……

In Taiyuan, the First Army Command.

Yoshio Iwamatsu asked: "Hanagu-kun, what did your Excellency the General say?"

"I didn't say anything." Hua Guzheng shook his head, and said again, "It is estimated that we will handle it ourselves."

"No, Hanagu-kun, you are wrong." Yoshio Iwamatsu waved his hand and said, "I didn't say it was the general's attitude. He doesn't agree with our handling opinion. It seems that the general still trusts Miyano-kun."

Hua Guzheng nodded and said: "I also think that one failure is not enough to explain the problem."

"Okay, then give Miyano-kun another chance." Yoshio Iwamatsu said solemnly.

"Let him formulate the No. D combat plan as soon as possible, and report it to the headquarters for approval."

……

Zhaojiayu, independent regiment headquarters.

A table is ready.

"Lao Ding, Lao Kong, sit down."

Li Yunlong invited Ding Wei and Kong Jie to their seats.

He took out another pack of cigarettes from his pocket and distributed one to each of them.

"This is a cigarette produced by our Fuliangshan Tobacco Factory. How about you try it?"

Ding Wei and Kong Jie took the cigarettes, and Li Yunlong quickly lit a match for them.

Kong Jie took a breath and said contemptuously, "It's just like that, not as real as my old smoke."

"Old Li, this cigarette tastes good, why is it still cold? It's much better than the one you gave me last time." Ding Wei thought it was good, and said, "Have you made improvements?"

Wang Ye said: "Actually, it's nothing, just added some mint."

"No wonder." Ding Wei said happily, "But it's good to add mint, I really like this mouthful."

After a pause, he said to Li Yunlong again: "Old Li, when you leave, give me two hundred, no, four hundred! Old Kong doesn't like smoking, so you give me his two hundred too."

"Old Ding, do you want to fart? You need four hundred more."

Li Yunlong said angrily: "The daily output of our tobacco factory is only [-] cigarettes, and it is not enough to exchange the most scarce supplies on the black market. Even I can only supply one pack a day, and you still want to take [-] cigarettes? You are so beautiful."

"It's really picky." Ding Wei scolded, "You are still a fucking old comrade in arms. You can't bear a few cigarettes. I think you might as well change your name to Li Laocai. You are more picky than a landlord."

Kong Jie said: "Hey, Li Laocai is good."

"Go, what are you two doing?"

Li Yunlong said angrily: "Let's talk about business."

Ding Wei and Kong Jiebian also straightened their faces and stopped joking.

Li Yunlong said: "This time our independent regiment killed the little devil's Beize brigade, and it really became a thorn in the side of the Japanese army in Shanxi, so next..."

Before finishing speaking, Kong Jie and Ding Wei interrupted.

"Wait, what did you say, Old Li?" Ding Wei asked, "What is the Beize Brigade?"

Li Yunlong snorted, deliberately pretending to be disdainful and said: "It's the special forces of the Japanese army in Shanxi."

"My God." Kong Jie also said, "Lao Li, your independent group did another big job without saying a word, and killed the devil's special forces?"

"What's the matter?"

Li Yunlong said: "Our old Li just played a trick."

"As a result, the devil's special forces got in at the fucking end."

"Our old Li slapped the grass and beat the rabbits, and he even took care of the devil's infantry brigade."

"My God." Kong Jie said, "Your independent regiment also killed the devil's infantry brigade?"

Speaking of this meal, Kong Jie said again: "Lao Li, so you got rich again? Let me tell you, why are you being so polite to me and Lao Ding today? It's full of wine and cigarettes, and you even set up such a table Good food."

"Damn, a table of wine and food is nothing." Li Yunlong said, "Our old Li has prepared a big gift for you!"

"Big gift?" Ding Wei and Kong Jie looked at each other and said in disbelief, "A big gift for us?"

"Don't believe me?" Li Yunlong chuckled, and said to Xing Zhiguo, "Old Xing, tell them."
