Zhao Weiguo sighed.
Originally, he planned to spend two months or even longer to build the fortifications.
After all, this was an extremely huge project, and its difficulty was no less than a long-lasting war.
Only after a long period of accumulation could it be completed.
However, to Zhao Weiguo's surprise, the people of Little Wang Village heard that Zhao Weiguo wanted to build a safe base. They wouldn't let them be harassed by the devils.
With Da Zhuang's father leading the way, they organized a transportation team and worked day and night with more than 200 soldiers. Finally, the project that took several months was completed in a month, and it was even more than completed!
This made Zhao Weiguo extremely moved. He swore that he would do his best to protect the lives of these simple and honest people, even if he had to pay the price of his life.
"Company commander, there's a situation!"
At this moment, the scout brought back a piece of news.
"Company commander, there is a group of Japanese coming towards us on Antai Road, which is a few miles away from us!”
"This is a Japanese squadron with a total of 190 people. They are on their way and will reach our territory around noon!”
"By the way, Company Commander, they also have a car that looks very heavy. It seems to have supplies and equipment on it. This subordinate suspects that it's a mortar or even a cannon!”
"Yes, I know!"
After sending the soldiers off to eat, Zhao Weiguo rubbed his chin and thought for a moment. He felt that this group of ghosts must have come from Pingan County to destroy his ghost troops.
However, what Zhao Weiguo did not expect was that this time, the Japanese were quite respectful and actually sent a squadron.
There was even a car among them. Moreover, the car was very heavy. It was obvious that the things in the car were definitely not light.
Then what was in the car?
Zhao Weiguo knew very well that a Japanese infantry squadron, including a 19-man squadron, had a large number of soldiers. There were a squadron leader, an executive officer, three sergeants, four medics, an officer's orderly, a number officer, and eight communicators.
There were three teams of 54 people, a total of 181 people, 139 rifles, 9 light machine guns, and 9 grenade launchers.
Sometimes, they would add 2-4 heavy machine guns or even 1-2 Type 90 mortars or Type 92 infantry cannons.
From this analysis, the car must have been equipped with mortars, heavy machine guns, and even heavy weapons such as infantry cannons.
"It seems that the Japanese know that I lack weapons and can't attack the prisoner of war camp, so they took the initiative to send me weapons!”
The reason why he didn't attack the prisoner of war camp was because he knew that he was a little weak. He planned to act after he grew stronger.
But now, after destroying this group of devils and obtaining those supplies, there would be a chance.
"In that case, I won't stand on ceremony!”
"This time, I'm going to make sure that these ghosts won't be able to return!”
"This time, I can finally witness the power of the Gatling gun!”
Ever since he got the Gatling gun, Zhao Weiguo's hands had been itching to try out the violent side of the Gatling gun.
Now, the opportunity had come!
······
"Reporting to the regiment commander, the scouts have reported that they have discovered a squadron of Japanese soldiers on the road from Pingan County to Tai An County!”
Yang Village, the new regiment headquarters.
Li Yunlong, who was studying the blueprints with the political commissar, deputy regiment commander, and staff officer, suddenly heard the news brought back by the scout. His eyes immediately revealed a puzzled look.
"A Japanese squadron, what do they want?”
"I haven't heard of any recent movements from the Japanese.”
Li Yunlong looked at the map on the table and pondered.
"Captain, do you think this matter is related to the news that the scout brought back a few days ago?”
At this moment, the vice commander's eyes lit up as he asked.
"Are you saying that this group of devils has something to do with Black Wind Mountain being exterminated by a group of mysterious people?”
Li Yunlong's eyes widened, and he seemed to be deep in thought.
It turned out that a few days ago, the scout brought back an unexpected piece of news.
Black Wind Mountain was destroyed!
It was said that he was killed by a mysterious force overnight!
All the bandits, including Fort Master Xie Baoqing, were killed.
It was said that more than a hundred Japanese and a Japanese major died in this massacre.
According to the intelligence, Xie Baoqing of Black Wind Mountain colluded with the devils and killed many anti-Japanese people, which led to his death.
Moreover, they also knew that they had intercepted the new Zhao Army and destroyed Xie Baoqing's forces.
"Could it be that this group of ghosts is going to attack the Black Cloud Stronghold to avenge those hundred ghosts?”
"In other words, the survivors of the Zhao Army who killed Xie Baoqing and his men are in danger?”
"That's right. Otherwise, why would there be a Japanese squadron on Antai Road?”
"Moreover, from the way they cleverly bypassed the Jinsui Army, our new regiment, Commander Kong's independent regiment's defense zone, their goal is self-evident.”
Hearing this, Li Yun Long's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately shouted outside.
"1st Battalion, 2nd Battalion, assemble!"
"Regiment Commander, you want to ambush this group of Japanese?”
The eyes of the deputy regiment commander and political commissar lit up.
"That's a must!"
"Why don't we eat this kind of meat that's delivered to our mouths?”
"Although the Black Cloud Stronghold is easy to defend and difficult to attack, the Zhao Army has few soldiers. They lack training and combat experience.”
"Aren't we going to recruit them? This time, I sent troops to save them and at the same time, I can also recruit them. Isn't it the best of both worlds?”
Li Yun Long was a cunning person. He quickly realized that this was a good opportunity to recruit the Zhao Army.
He was sure that the Zhao Army would not be able to defeat these ghosts. The final result would be the destruction of the stronghold gate and the entire army would be annihilated.
As long as he made a move at the right time and saved Zhao Weiguo, then he would kill these ghosts with lightning speed and intimidate Zhao Weiguo. Then, he would propose to take them in. He would definitely succeed.
This way, he could not only recruit a force, but also obtain a batch of resources. It could be said to be a double blessing!
He had been thinking about Zhao Weiguo for a long time. Now, he could finally get his wish.
"But, Captain, the route of this group of devils is very clever. They actually don't pass through any defense zones, and they're not close to us. It's a little difficult to launch a surprise attack!”
The chief of staff checked the route of the Japanese and finally shook his head.
"Who said I'm going after them? My destination is here!”
Li Yun Long pointed with his finger, and everyone's eyes lit up.
"Black Cloud Stronghold?"
