Little Li Village was 20 miles away from Wangjiawa and 40 miles away from Meng County.
On this day.
Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the new regiment, had brought over 400 men from the 1st Battalion and sneaked into this place.
They were here to 'borrow' something.
There was a landlord surnamed Li in Little Li Village. He was rich and heartless. It was said that he had more than 2,000 mu of good land in his hands. He was a big fat sheep.
Food was one of the reasons, and the second was for the dozens of guns of Mr. Li's family.
According to the information they had gathered, there were about 50 people in Li Village, and there were more than 30 of them with guns. This was a large number, enough for them to take a bite.
Looking at the 400 men he brought, there were still more than 100 of them who did not even have a decent gun. They could only carry large knives and spears. If they could get those 30 guns, they could equip the 30 brothers in the camp.
This was a good thing, and he had no choice but to care.
Would the Guild Leader have any objections? That definitely wouldn't happen.
The regiment commander had said that the higher-ups wanted us to do it ourselves and have ample food and clothing. You battalion commanders should also do it yourself. As many guns as you can get, it will be yours.
Zhang Dabiao agreed with this. Just like what the regiment commander always said, who asked our New Team One to be pampered by their grandmother and not loved by their uncle? Then they could only take care of themselves.
Because of this, ever since the new regiment was formed, Zhang Dabiao had brought the 1st Battalion to borrow things from the outside.
In fact, the whole of New One was like this. In this few hundred miles of land, whether it was the landlord, the rich, the bandits, the puppet soldiers, or even the Japanese, they were all New One's meal tickets.
Sometimes, they might even go overboard, such as cheating and swindling. However, when the higher-ups established the new regiment, they did not give Li Yunlong anything other than dozens of military uniforms. Therefore, the higher-ups sometimes chose to turn a blind eye to this.
If he was not allowed to do anything, then he would not be able to do anything.
Thanks to the tacit approval of his superiors, Li Yunlong did a good job. In a short period of time, he had set up the structure of the new team. Now, there were more than a thousand people in the new team.
There were more than 800 rifles, 20 machine guns, 10 grenade launchers, and two 60-meter mortars. They looked like they were not much weaker than an ordinary main force.
How did these things come about in such a short period of time?？He knew without asking.
Besides, only Li Yunlong had this kind of ability. If it was any other team, it wouldn't be useful at all. It was strange that others couldn't play it well.
Therefore, even if some people were dissatisfied with Li Yunlong's actions, the division headquarters did not punish him. After all, Li Yunlong was really capable.
Those who had the ability, even if they went a little overboard, could still make an exception.
"Where do we shoot?"
Zhang Dabiao was determined to get the food and spear from the little Li Village. However, suddenly, a gunshot came from afar.
Zhang Dabiao frowned. From the sound of the gunshot, it seemed to have come from a Japanese machine gun.
He knew that there was a Japanese turret a few miles away from Li Zhuang. He also had plans to send people to keep an eye on that turret to prevent trouble when he borrowed things from Li Zhuang's house.
However, he hadn't even sent someone over. Why was there a fight?？
Listening to the increasingly intense gunshots and even the sound of artillery shells exploding, Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but frown.
From the sound of the gunshots, there were at least a hundred guns, maybe even two hundred. Could it be that some main force's battalion was attacking that turret?？This shouldn't be the case!
Zhang Dabiao really couldn't figure it out. Logically speaking, there should only be their battalion in the Little Li Village today. However, the gunshots and cannon sounds indicated that they were at least equipped with a battalion's level of weapons. This was a little strange.
"What is this?"
"Are you saying that the district team here is leading a group of militia to attack that turret?？”
After sending people to take a look, the soldiers rushed back and reported that a group of local troops were attacking the Japanese turret. Zhang Dabiao's mouth was a little cracked.
This was too much of a coincidence.
"Yes, Battalion Commander. You don't know, but they have more than four hundred people.”
The soldier who reported said with a sigh. It was not easy for a group of militia to fight like this.
"Battalion Commander, what should we do now? Should he take the opportunity to take down Little Li Manor?”
A company commander beside Zhang Dabiao asked. This was a good opportunity.
Zhang Dabiao nodded. No matter why the militia and guerrillas attacked the turrets, it was an opportunity for their battalion.
"Let's end this quickly. Third Company Commander, take a company to support our comrades. After we take down Little Li Village, I'll go over and take a look.”
Although it was just a turret, Zhang Dabiao didn't think that it could be taken down in a short period of time. After all, they were all local comrades. Even if they had hundreds of guns, they couldn't compare to the regular troops.
Even their 1st Battalion didn't dare to say that they could take down the turret in a short time. In the end, they might even suffer heavy losses, not to mention those comrades in the local area.
Zhang Dabiao was used to looking down on the local militia and guerrillas, even though the New Regiment was not the main force at the moment.
However, even if it was a skeleton regiment, it could still be considered a reserve main force regiment. It was far from what the local county, brigade, district, small team, guerrilla, and other scattered soldiers could compare to.
This had always been the truth. It was no wonder that Zhang Dabiao would think so.
"Good heavens, this Rich Man Li is quite fat. Haha, 36 guns, all of them are good guns.”
Zhang Dabiao didn't spend much effort beating up the local rich man of Little Li Village. He took him down in two or three moves.
Looking at the 36 long spears that were seized, 12 of them were made by the Japanese, 15 were made by Hanyang, and they looked 90% new. Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but laugh in satisfaction.
As for the other nine guns, there were six E77s and three Mauser. They were also 60 to 70% new and could be said to be all good guns.
Apart from these long spears, they had also seized nearly 800 bullets. It could be said that they were quite rich.
Zhang Dabiao was very satisfied with the guns and bullets.
It could be said to be a complete victory.
Zhang Dabiao was in a good mood, but it didn't last long.
The reason was simple.
After he arranged for First Company and Second Company to continue to 'borrow' food from Li's house, he took two people to see the local comrades. He found that not only had the turret been shot down, but there were actually hundreds of brand new Mauser among the militia.
Not only that, but he also saw many people inside. They were holding brand new shell guns, and they seemed to be 20 shots. There were at least 40 of them.
And their ammo belts were full, and there were new grenades that were obviously much larger than those made in the border area hanging behind their buttocks. There seemed to be a lot of them. Good heavens, when did the local comrades become so extravagant?？
Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but jump in fright, and his mood instantly soured.
Compared to them, their 1st Battalion looked like beggars.
