When the sun began to set, the Japanese retreated again. Both sides had a break.
Lu Yan sat on the ground at the main peak of the Gray Cloud Ridge, holding a few bread buns in his hands. Like the soldiers, he could only drink cold water and finish his dinner simply.
Originally, Li Yunlong wanted to ask the cooks to use the remaining flour to cook a portion of noodles for Lu Yan.
This was because the entire New One was filled with admiration for Lu Yan. Even if there was meat for him to eat, none of the soldiers would complain, let alone boiled noodles.
However, Lu Yan decisively refused. Although the life here was completely incomparable to the original world, and Lu Yan was indeed not used to eating cornbread made of coarse noodles, Lu Yan was a person who could endure hardships.
Therefore, when Li Yunlong suggested a special meal, Lu Yan decisively rejected it. Now that the entire group was eating cornbread, he could still do it.
The cornbread here was not made with fine noodles in modern society. It was made with mixed noodles and coarse noodles. Not only was it not sweet, but it was also very unpalatable.
However, compared to the dry rations from before, the coarse mixed noodles and cornbread were already considered delicious.
Li Yunlong heaved a sigh of relief when he saw Lu Yan finish the food in two or three bites.
Li Yunlong knew the life of some overseas Chinese. They lived a good life with white rice and meat every day.
Therefore, he was a little worried that Lu Yan would not be able to get used to such a tough life. He would not be able to eat the bread. There were still many battles in the army behind him, so it would be even harder for Lu Yan to adapt.
However, it was obvious that Li Yunlong was thinking too much.
After receiving the gift bag from the system, Lu Yan was not worried about what to eat. His body had been strengthened in all aspects. Even if he ate some poisonous insects, his stomach would be able to hold on.
"Brother Lu, after we break out of the encirclement safely, I'll treat you to braised pork trotters and the most authentic sweet potato roast.”
"What are you talking about, brother? I came back to fight the Japanese. I don't have that high of a standard for living.”Lu Yan replied.
Li Yunlong wanted to say something when he saw Zhang Dabiao walk in.
"Zhang Dabiao, when will the division headquarters and field hospital be successfully transferred?"”
"Regiment commander, the division headquarters and the field hospital are moving slowly. They will be moved by noon tomorrow.”
After saying that, Zhang Dabiao winked at Li Yunlong and left.
Then, Li Yunlong said that he wanted to patrol again and left the command center.
Zhang Dabiao was waiting not far away. After seeing Li Yunlong, he said,""Regiment Commander, we just received a message from the division headquarters. The message mentioned that Brother Lu Yan's identity has been confirmed. He is indeed the leader of an overseas Chinese organization dedicated to saving the country. He has helped our Eighth Route Army many times.”
Li Yunlong pondered for a moment and said,""It seems that Brother Lu's background is indeed very big.”
"Regiment Commander, with Brother Lu's sniper rifle and his marksmanship, he's definitely not an ordinary person.”After all, Zhang Dabiao had asked Lu Yan if he was willing to join the new group, so he felt that the new group was too small.
Although Li Yunlong was the regiment commander, he still had the brigade commander and division commander above him. Vice President Peng had even given an order to protect Lu Yan.
Li Yunlong could also think of this, but he felt that it was better to finish the battle in front of him first and talk about the rest later.
Perhaps it was because the battle was too intense during the day, the Japanese did not attack that night.
In fact, Lu Yan had destroyed too many of the Japanese's heavy and light weapons during the day. Their firepower was already very difficult to suppress the new group.
The mortars and other heavy weapons had also suffered a devastating blow. The only thing that the Sakata United could do was to use the artillery brigade.
In the command center of the new regiment, Li Yunlong was looking at the map while Lu Yan was staring at the Japanese artillery positions on the system map.
……
The Japanese's artillery position.
The Japanese had placed the artillery position further away, behind all the troops of the Sakata United. It would be difficult to launch a night attack.
However, the positions of the Sakata United Army's troops were clearly displayed on Lu Yan's system map. Not only were there patrols, but Lu Yan could also see the hidden sentries on the road clearly.
The fighting during the day was too intense, and the Japanese were also very tired. They took turns sleeping in the trenches.
Lu Yan carefully studied the route from the main peak of the Gray Cloud Ridge to the artillery position of the Sakata United Army and soon found many gaps.
Lu Yan could easily reach the artillery position of the Sakata Regiment without anyone noticing.
However, Lu Yan didn't want to completely destroy these cannons. He wanted to bring all the Japanese's cannons to a new group.
The Japanese had clearly thought about the artillery configuration carefully. They abandoned the howitzers and cannons that were not suitable for fighting in the Taihang Mountains and only chose the Type 92 artillery that was easy to transport.
In Lu Yan's Newbie Gift Pack, there was a system Backpack that could store certain items.
Lu Yan could store these cannons and all the artillery shells in his backpack, but these cannons were to be given to the new team. The system backpack was too shocking, and he could not let the new team know about it.
Lu Yan wanted to lead a new regiment of soldiers to sneak into the artillery position of the Sakata United Army and then pull the artillery back, but it was too difficult. Such a big movement would easily alarm the Japanese.
Therefore, Lu Yan had been thinking about what he should do to be safer.
"Old Li, how many people in our cannon platoon can use the Type 92 Infantry Cannon?”
Because Li Yunlong insisted on Lu Yan calling him that. According to him, this was what brothers should be like! Hence, Lu Yan started to address him as Old Li.
Hearing Lu Yan's words, Li Yunlong raised his head and said,""The cannoneers of our machine gun platoon are all professionally trained and almost everyone knows how to use it. However, our new regiment is relatively poor and only has a few mortars and some cannons.”
Lu Yan's eyes lit up when he heard Li Yunlong's words.""Old Li, are you interested in getting rich tonight?”
After Li Yunlong heard this, he thought about what Lu Yan had asked just now. Suddenly, he thought of something and asked with his eyes wide open,"You brat, you're actually scheming for the Japanese's cannons?”
