Gray Cloud Town.
The 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army was stationed here.
The 358th Regiment of the Jinsui Army was a strengthened regiment with more than 5,000 people.
One of the battalions was a reinforced battalion with two thousand men, more than Li Yun Long's new regiment.
The 358th Regiment also had a cannon battalion.
Each regiment was equipped with a cannon battalion. There were probably only 358 regiments in the entire Jinsui Army.
The leader of Regiment 358 was Chu Yunfei.
Chu Yunfei graduated from Huangpu Military Academy's fifth batch. Although he was born into a prestigious family, he only started as a platoon leader after graduation and eventually became the commander of the 358th Regiment.
It had to be said that Chu Yunfei was also a talent. He was educated and reasonable, treated the people well, believed in his own beliefs, was cultured, and understood military affairs.
He was able to empathize with the soldiers and faithfully execute the orders of his superiors.
He had courage, strategic vision, and his tactical command ability was not bad. He could be considered one of the best in the Jinsui Army.
At this moment, Chu Yunfei was observing the situation in the direction of the Gray Cloud Ridge from the roof.
Gunshots rang out.
Chief of Staff Fang Ligong came up to report the situation and said," Regimental commander, the 8th Route Army is in trouble this time because they've encountered the Sakata United Army of the 4th Brigade. They're a bunch of tough Japanese."
"The Sakata United is an elite force of the Japanese army. During the Battle of Xinkou, the Sakata United defeated two regular divisions of the Central Army.”
"We fought with the Sakata United Army. In less than an hour, our 358th Regiment lost nearly 300 people.”
"If we hadn't retreated in time, our 358th Regiment would have been in even more danger.”
Chu Yunfei nodded." Yes…It seems that the 8th Route Army will have to die in the Gray Cloud Ridge. After all, they are facing the elite Sakata United Army. They are doomed!"”
"We can't just stand here and watch. If we can give them some artillery support, that would be fine.”
"Regiment Commander, we can't do this. We can't provide any fire support."”
"Commander Yan of the commanding department of the Second Theater of Operations has repeatedly stressed that if we want to cooperate with the Eighth Route Army, we must have the written order of the commanding department of the Second Theater of Operations."
"Otherwise, not a single soldier can be mobilized without authorization. If anyone disobeys orders, they will be punished by military law.”
Chu Yunfei sighed and said helplessly,""I know that…It's just that we can't do anything while the Japanese destroy their own allies. It's a bit difficult for us. In the end, we'll still lose our own anti-Japanese forces.”
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Follow my orders and let the frontline sentries observe the movements and battle situation of the Gray Cloud Ridge.”
"Yes, sir!"
As time passed, Chu Yunfei found that the gunshots in the Gray Cloud Ridge had decreased a lot.
Hearing this, Chu Yunfei sighed and said,""What a pity…it seems that this Eighth Route Army unit was annihilated.”
Obviously, Chu Yunfei thought that the gunfire had stopped and that the 8th Route Army had been annihilated.
This was normal logic.
At this moment, Fang Ligong rushed to Chu Yunfei and reported the situation,""Regimental commander, according to the latest intelligence report we received, not only were the Sakata United not annihilated, but they even broke out from the front. This result is simply beyond our expectations.”
Hearing this, Chu Yunfei was shocked. He said in disbelief,""What did you say? The 8th Route Army broke through?"
"This is simply unbelievable. With the equipment of the 8th Route Army, they can actually break out of the encirclement?”
The 358th Regiment had fought with the Sakata United Team before, so they naturally knew the strength of the Sakata United Team.
However, he did not expect the Eighth Route Army to be able to retreat unscathed against the elite Sakata United Army.
Fang Ligong: " According to the information we have, the reason why the 8th Route Army was able to break through this time was because there was a problem with the command system of the Sakata United Army. They were unable to cooperate in battle, and they were also faced with the 8th Route Army's counter-charge attack. In the end, they were defeated.”
"According to our intelligence, the 8th Route Army unit surrounded by the Sakata United is the new regiment of the 386th Brigade of the 8th Route Army.”
Su Zheng was the one who killed Nobutetsu Sakata.
However, the current Su Zheng was just a small soldier in the new regiment.
Therefore, Chu Yunfei naturally didn't know that it was Su Zheng who killed Sakata Shingetsu.
"Li Yun Long?" Chu Yun Fei thought for a moment and said. Why haven't I heard of this person before? Where did he come from? Or did he graduate from some military school?”
"I'm sure that Li Yunlong is not in the first five batches of Huangpu Military Academy. He must have graduated from Baoding Military Academy or some other lecture hall.”
Fang Ligong: " Regimental commander, the number of people in the Eighth Route Army who went to military school can be counted. Therefore, this Li Yunlong shouldn't have graduated from military school. There's a high chance that he came from a humble background."”
Chu Yunfei suddenly became interested and said,""If Li Yun Long is really a peasant, then I really want to get to know him. After all, to be able to break out of the encirclement under such circumstances, it means that his tactical command ability is very powerful.”
During the battle at the Gray Cloud Ridge, Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong's attention was on Li Yun Long.
However, they did not know that Su Zhengcai was the hidden big shot.
…………
Three days later.
Li Jiayu.
After the new regiment broke out of the Gray Cloud Ridge, they quickly marched to Li Jia Yu and rested their troops there.
Regiment headquarters.
Li Yunlong was sitting on the brick bed, drinking sweet potato soup and eating peanuts.
After a while, a young soldier wearing the Eighth Route Army uniform walked in and said,""Guild Leader, you were looking for me?"
If there were any rich people who wanted to tip him, 100 VIPs was also love.
