Chapter 4 The Commander is a Businessman
Wang Yousheng subconsciously glanced at the man.
He had a handsome appearance, high cheekbones, a few wrinkles on his forehead, and bright, piercing eyes beneath thick eyebrows.
[Initial Analysis: Discovered the new commander of the First Regiment, Ding Wei, with a favorability rating of 10]
"Oh? Ding Wei?"
Wang Yousheng immediately returned a standard military salute to Ding Wei.
Wang Yousheng thought to himself: Ding Wei and Li Yunlong are old comrades-in-arms of the Fourth Front Army. They must be here to take up their posts. It seems that the plot is not wrong.
Seeing this, Li Yunlong said in a complicated tone, "Old Ding, I just replaced a whole bunch of weapons and equipment for the new First Regiment, and you come and pick up the pieces. You're luckier than anyone else."
Ding Wei laughed and said, "Don't worry, the punishment you received from your superiors will be lifted soon. Go to the rear and rest for a while. When the Japanese devils get close to the base, you'll have plenty of fighting to do."
"Oh!"
Li Yunlong ignored him, glanced at Wang Yousheng, and said, "Wang Yousheng, go back and pack your things immediately. Come with me to the clothing factory in the rear in an hour."
"Me?" Wang Yousheng was taken aback. Go to the clothing factory with the regimental commander? The regimental commander summoned me to take me away?
Before Li Yunlong could reply, Ding Wei laughed and said, "Haha, your regimental commander is a shrewd businessman. Before leaving, he not only wants you, but also wants to take Zhang Dabiao with him in the future."
Wang Yousheng understood, but he wondered what he had done to deserve the attention of the regimental commander.
Li Yunlong said, "Okay, hurry up. I need a bodyguard. The journey to the rear won't be easy."
Li Yunlong naturally had his own plans. During the battle of Cangyunling, apart from him, only Wang Yousheng in the entire regiment discovered the command post of the Sakata Regiment.
As an experienced commander, Li Yunlong could tell at a glance that Wang Yousheng was a promising talent.
Although he is only a new recruit now, Wang Yousheng will grow up quickly under his guidance.
As for Zhang Dabiao, Li Yunlong definitely wants him. He'll take Zhang Dabiao with him when they move to a different place later.
Wang Yousheng was naturally delighted; fighting the Japanese alongside Li Yunlong was even more exciting, and he couldn't help but show a joyful expression on his face.
Li Yunlong immediately laughed and scolded, "You brat, what are you laughing at? You look like you've eaten bee droppings. You're having a great time embroidering at the clothing factory?"
……
An hour later, at the village entrance.
The entire First Regiment was divided into two rows, stretching from the regimental command post all the way to the village entrance, with complex expressions on their faces as they saw Li Yunlong off.
Li Yunlong had served in the New First Regiment for many years. When the regimental commander suddenly left, the soldiers were all reluctant to part with him, and some veterans even cried and wiped away tears...
Only Wang Yousheng accompanied Li Yunlong to the clothing factory. The two of them, on two fast horses, would need at least two days to reach the division headquarters logistics if they traveled day and night.
Of course, this is an ideal plan, and reality does not allow it.
Although Li Yunlong was demoted to the position of factory director in a clothing factory, he was highly experienced, and anyone with eyes could see that Li Yunlong was just going to the rear to rest.
Therefore, the county brigades and district squads along the way all needed to escort Li Yunlong away, and it would take at least a week to reach the division headquarters.
Wang Yousheng had analyzed this matter, and these processes were not described in detail in the TV series before.
As for what would happen along the way, everything was still unknown, and Wang Yousheng seemed quite expectant.
On the way, Wang Yousheng rode a fast horse behind Li Yunlong, using his Analytical Eye to observe the surrounding movements.
The Eye of Analysis can detect situations within a radius of 1000 meters, which is enough to react to any incidents.
"Whoa!"
Just then, Wang Yousheng suddenly pulled on the reins and stopped the horse.
[Combat Detection: Combat aftershocks detected within 1000 meters...]
[Battle Summary: The 771st Regiment and the 142nd Regiment under the command of Sun Liancheng, a Nationalist rebel army, are engaged in fierce fighting in the southeast...]
[Battle Tip: Join the battle to receive rewards]
Wang Yousheng raised an eyebrow, wondering what was going on. The 771st Regiment had actually started fighting with the rebels.
He also learned that in order to obtain rewards from the aftermath of battle, he had to participate in the battle.
"Katsuko, what's wrong?"
Li Yunlong also quickly tightened the reins and glanced back.
Wang Yousheng said warily, "Commander, there seems to be some movement!"
Wang Yousheng dared not reveal his secret weapon, after all, the commander wouldn't believe him.
"Oh?" Li Yunlong frowned, and upon listening carefully, he indeed heard gunfire in the distance ahead.
There's a battle going on up ahead!
Li Yunlong pondered for a moment and concluded that the only unit that could be stationed in this area was Xu Ji's 771st Regiment.
The 771st Regiment had only rested for a few days before being thrown into battle.
Li Yunlong was a belligerent man, and immediately decided, "Let's go take a look!"
At this moment, a fierce battle is unfolding in the direction of Wanjialing.
Wanjialing is 40 kilometers away from Qinghe County. The Kuomintang rebel Sun Liancheng was besieged by the Eighth Route Army, and his remaining troops retreated to this place.
Sun Liancheng followed Feng Xiang in his early years and was one of the "Thirteen Protectors of Feng's Army". He was a fierce general under Feng's army. He was meticulous and fickle.
He had served the Nationalist army, acted as a traitor, and even tried to align himself with the Eighth Route Army—a typical example of a traitor who served three masters.
In January 1940, Sun Liancheng conspired with Shi Yousan to betray the country, accepted the Japanese army's preferential treatment policy, and led his men to surrender to the enemy.
After Shi Yousan defected to the enemy, he openly surrounded and disarmed two companies of the 129th Division's Eastward Advance Column and one platoon of the Youth Column. He also besieged the 3rd Regiment of the Eastward Advance Column and the two county brigades of Qingjiang and Qinghe, annihilating the Qinghe County Brigade. The Eighth Route Army headquarters was furious!
In order to avenge their defeat, Liu Cheng, commander of the 129th Division, took advantage of the retreat of Zhu Huaibing's stubborn army to the south and the fact that Gao Shuxun's stubborn army was still east of the Wei River. He decided to concentrate troops from the southern Hebei, Hebei-Shandong-Henan and central Hebei military regions to annihilate the stubborn army led by Shi Yousan and Sun Liancheng.
The 771st Regiment belonged to the 129th Division. Their mission was to join forces with the Jinnan Special Service Regiment to encircle Sun Liancheng's Provisional 1st Division 142nd Regiment.
Coincidentally, Wang Yousheng and Li Yunlong encountered them at that moment.
At Wanjialing, Wang Yousheng followed Li Yunlong to a small hill, where smoke and fire filled the air.
The deafening roar of cannons and the sounds of soldiers fighting on both sides were incessant.
Wang Yousheng frowned and looked over; news of the battle was coming in again.
[Battle Overview: The 771st Regiment is conducting a flanking maneuver against the Jinnan District, and the battle is currently at a stalemate.]
[Battle Prompt: Join the battle?]
Before Wang Yousheng could make a decision, Li Yunlong suddenly shouted, "Let's go! Xu Ji's command post should be up ahead. Let's go take a look."
Wang Yousheng immediately nodded, agreeing to the Golden Finger's suggestion.
[Battle Notification: Successfully joined the battle!]
[Combat Detection: Aftershocks of combat detected within a 1000-meter radius]
[Battle Reward: The 771st Regiment captured the main peak position on the right flank of the 142nd Regiment of the Provisional Division, rewarding 3000 points.]
The Jinan Special Service Regiment cut off the rear route of the 142nd Regiment, reward points +2000.
Wang Yousheng was secretly alarmed. He had just left the new regiment and was already facing another tough battle. This battle would definitely increase his score by a lot.
