"There are still many small and medium-sized strongholds that have been attacked, but it does not affect the overall situation of Taiyuan!"

"As long as Taiyuan is safe and sound, it won't be a problem if all the surrounding small and medium-sized strongholds are thrown away..."

"When the mopping up troops take over the Eighth Route Army base areas, eliminate the main force of the Eighth Route Army, and return with heavy reinforcements...the independent regiment will not be able to escape, and the small and medium-sized strongholds captured by them will be recaptured by us!"

"Yoshi..." Yoshio Shinozuka was very satisfied with this answer.

Immediately ordered: "Send out all our scouts...continue to find out the strength of the independent regiment through these small-scale battles!"

"Know yourself and your enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger!"

"After fully understanding the Independent Regiment, the main force returning to support can kill them at the minimum cost!"

"We have already lost enough troops in this large-scale sweep. We will lose a few less troops in the next operations."

In a forest more than thirty kilometers away from Jinzhong, more than three thousand soldiers of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment are resting here.

They drove continuously for more than 20 hours. Li Yunlong himself could hardly hold on, let alone the soldiers below, and had to stop the troops to rest.

After a while, the sound of his subordinates' snoring came to mind.

Many soldiers began to eat dry food to replenish their strength as soon as they stopped, and ended up falling asleep while eating.

Li Yunlong was no exception. He and Ding Wei devoured a few mouthfuls of dry food and then lay down in a straw nest to sleep.

I don't know how long it took, but Zhao Gang's excited voice suddenly sounded in their ears.

"Captain, Commander Ding... wake up quickly... Commander Kong has sent someone over to contact us!"

"Kong Er is stupid...where is he?" Li Yunlong's eyes suddenly opened, he stood up from the hay nest, stared at Zhao Gang and asked.

Ding Wei's eyes also focused on Zhao Gang.

The troops have been traveling for such a long time, and everyone is exhausted and panting, but even now they still don't know what their mission is.

As the military commander of the new regiment, Ding Wei was anxious and uneasy.

When I heard that Kong Jie had sent people over, I subconsciously wanted to ask what the specific tasks of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment were.

"Report to Commander Li and Commander Ding... our commander asks you to go to Jinzhong County to replenish weapons, ammunition and dry food first!"

"Our chief of staff has prepared hot meals and dishes for everyone, you can eat them when you arrive!"

Li Yunlong had the same idea as Ding Wei. He stared at the correspondent and asked: "First tell me what the mission of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment will be after they arrive in Taiyuan... If you don't ask clearly, I won't be able to run smoothly all the way...

…”

The correspondent shook his head and replied: "Report to Commander Li, our commander did not tell me about the missions of the New First Regiment and the New Second Regiment..."

"But he said...as long as you arrive in Jinzhong, you will know your respective tasks..."

"Not only are there the weapons and ammunition you urgently need, but there are also two radio stations..."

"Next action, all three regiments will contact each other through the radio!"

"Radio station..." Li Yunlong became jealous upon hearing this.

He had long wanted to equip the New Second Regiment with a radio, but radios were too rare in the Eighth Route Army. There were too many monks and few meat, so it was difficult for the New Second Regiment to take its turn. Unexpectedly, Kong Er, a fool, actually prepared one for himself.

In addition to being surprised, he also became looking forward to the other weapons and ammunition that Kong Jie gave him.
