Suddenly, a week passed.
It was now January 27th. In another four days, it would be February.
Seven days ago, Li Yan's 108th Division had completed their equipment change. All the soldiers were equipped with Type 56 semi-automatic rifles.
In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the entire division, other than the clone soldiers, the other soldiers under Li Yan's command all adopted a large number of live ammunition training.
These soldiers could swear that the number of bullets they fired in a year was probably not as much as the seven days of live ammunition training.
Everyone knew that their master had a large family and business. It was not a problem for him to support thousands of people.
…………………
As the intelligence that the Japanese army was planning to seize the northwest of Hunan was heard by the undercover personnel of the military, the 168th mixed brigade stationed in Changping Town was also nervously preparing for war.
The 168th Mixed Brigade was the direct line of command of the national army. The entire brigade was equipped with American equipment, and they were one of the few remaining rice-machinery brigades.
At this moment, in the command center of the 168th mixed brigade, the brigade commander Sun Shangren was holding a military meeting.
The command center of the 168th mixed brigade was very large. There was a sand table in the center of the command center, which showed the terrain map of the entire central and northwest Hunan.
"Traveler, I sent someone to Li Town yesterday to contact Li Yan, but this guy didn't respond at all. He didn't agree to cooperate with our battle plan, nor did he refuse to cooperate with our battle plan!”Cheng Li, the colonel chief of staff of the 168th mixed brigade, said.
Since they knew that the Kawasaki Brigade would attack Changping Town before March, the 168th Mixed Brigade was prepared to strike first. They wanted to cooperate with Li Yan's newly formed 108th Division to directly wrap up the Kawasaki Brigade and destroy them in Nanzhang County.
"What does this Li Yan mean? Didn't he already agree to accept the national team? The national team even gave him a division and appointed him as a major general. Why didn't he cooperate with our battle plan?”Sun Shangren shouted a series of questions.
After a while, Sun Shangren mocked,"It seems that the military commander is not reliable. This Li Yan accepted the money but did not want to contribute!”
"Traveler, Li Yan used to be a regiment commander of the Imperial Association Army. This man is a traitor. We can't pin our hopes on him.”On the left seat, Wu Qi, the regiment commander of the 168th mixed regiment, said loudly.
"He accepted the commander's money but doesn't want to contribute. Is this Li Yan tired of living?”Sun Shangren snorted coldly. He knew the way the Commander did things very well. Since Li Yan had accepted the appointment letter and received 20,000 yuan, he was pretending to be silent and did not want to do anything. How could the Commander let him go?
The Commander-in-Chief was one of the two major intelligence agencies of the national team. If the Commander-in-Chief attacked, Li Yan would be dead!
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp!
Suddenly, there was the sound of hurried footsteps. A staff officer jogged in and reported loudly,"Traveler, this is the information sent by the intelligence department of the military commander stationed in Xiang City!”
Hearing this, Sun Shangren did not dare to hesitate. He quickly took the information and carefully read it.
"How is this possible?" The information on the report left Sun Shangren dumbstruck.
According to the intelligence report, Li Yan's 108th Division had expanded to 2520 people. He had also changed the entire unit's equipment. The weapons they were equipped with were unknown semi-automatic rifles, machine guns, and mortars.
There was a detailed data record in this intelligence report. All of Li Yan's soldiers had changed to semi-automatic rifles, and he also had 120 new machine guns with fierce firepower.
In addition, Li Yan's new artillery battalion was equipped with 72 60mm mortars.
Sun Shangren could not believe this information. As the major general of the 168th mixed brigade, Sun Shangren was not illiterate. Of course, he knew what kind of weapon a semi-automatic rifle was.
This type of rifle was an upgrade from the bolt rifle. It only needed to be loaded with a magazine to fire all the bullets in the magazine at once.
To put it simply, a semi-automatic rifle was equivalent to a machine gun.
When he thought of this question, Sun Shangren was extremely confused. Where did Li Yan get these weapons and equipment? Could it be that the Eagle Country or the American Country sold it to him?
On the side, Cheng Li, the Chief of Staff of the 168th Mixed Brigade, saw Sun Shangren standing there in a daze. He thought that something big had happened and asked anxiously,"Traveler, what did the commander say in the intelligence? Could it be that the Kawasaki Battalion was preparing to attack?”
"Phew!" Sun Shangren shook his head and suppressed his shock. He passed on the information in his hand and said,"See for yourselves!"
Very soon, the colonel-level officers of the 168th mixed regiment circulated the information. Almost everyone was shocked and had a look of disbelief.
"This information is fake, right? Li Yan was just an empty commander. The national team had only given him 20,000 yuan as salary. Where did he get these weapons?”
"Everyone, have you forgotten about the Li family? The Li family was the biggest landlord in the entire Xiangcheng area. If Li Yan sold his family property, he could raise at least a million yuan. Perhaps he bought these weapons from the Westerners!”
"Even if these weapons were provided by the Westerners, there must be something wrong with this Li Yan. These weapons and equipment look fierce, but can he afford the ammunition consumption of these weapons and equipment?”
Sun Shangren frowned as he listened to the discussion of the battalion level officers. He looked at Chief of Staff Cheng Li and said,"It seems that the strength of the 108th Division needs to be re-evaluated. Chief of Staff Cheng, send someone to sound out Li Yan and see what he means.”
After reading this information, Sun Shangren already knew that Lee Yan was indeed willing to go to Japan. Otherwise, why would he pay for these weapons himself?
"Traveler, Li Yan was assigned the new 108th Division by the national team, while we were assigned the 168th Mixed Brigade. Our division is one rank lower than Li Yan's, and now he has changed the 108th Division.”Cheng Li made such a guess.
Yesterday, Cheng Li had sent a letter to Li Yan in a commanding tone. The content was to ask Li Yan to cooperate with the 168th Mixed Brigade to attack Nanzhang County.
"The 108th Division is just a new division with a total of only 2,000 people. It's called a mixed team.”Sun Shangren said coldly. His impression of Li Yan instantly dropped by quite a bit.
