"Su Wen! You're mobilizing the team without permission! Do you know the consequences of doing this?”Zhao Gang panicked.
"Old Zhao, don't you dare to stare at me. I did this because it was the brigade commander's idea!”
Su Wen grinned and smiled indifferently."Some time ago, when I first took over the independent regiment, I asked the brigade commander for a gun. Guess what he said?”
"He said at that time that if I had a gun, why would I need you, Su Wen? Can't you borrow from the Japanese? I understood at that time. The brigade commander was asking us to rely on ourselves!”
"At that time, the brigade commander almost asked me to chop off his head to exchange for a gun. Tell me, if the higher-ups don't care, what can I do? I can only take it from the Japanese! I only managed to take down Li Jia Village by relying on the hundred submachine guns I stole from the Japanese!”
"But you can't just mobilize the troops like this!”
Although Zhao Gang was also coveting the equipment of a cavalry regiment, what if the Japanese noticed the mobilization of a battalion at such a sensitive time?
"I know what I'm doing. We've already agreed that I'm in charge of the military! I've already received intelligence that this batch of devils is heading to Taiyuan!”
"Damn it, if dozens of people send so many horses, aren't they just running into my gun? If I don't kill him, will I let the Japanese use it to arm their cavalry?”
Su Wen grinned and said,"Political commissar, Old Zhao, don't worry about this. I know what I'm doing. Isn't he just a brigade commander? He's an easy person to talk to…"
As he spoke, Monk Wei ran over to send a message saying that the 1st Battalion had returned. Su Wen hurriedly stood up and jogged to the entrance of the Wang Family Village.
"Reporting to Regiment Commander, we have captured 340 warhorses, 400 rifles, two light machine guns, and three mortars!”
Zhang Dabiao got off his horse proudly.
Zhao Gang looked at the mighty team and was stunned.
340 horses? To think that you can say that. There are at least 1,100 horses, right?
"Yes, that's right. If the brigade commander asks, just say this!”
Su Wen chuckled and rubbed his hands in excitement.
"Sun Desheng has a job to do now, but we can't afford to raise more than 1,100 horses..."
Su Wen smiled and said,"The cavalry company will keep 300 horses first. The rest will be sent to the homes of the villagers first. Do you understand?"”
"Yes, sir! Guild Leader!"
Zhang Dabiao quickly saluted and then ordered the soldiers to go.
"Sigh…"
Zhao Gang really didn't know what to say. He could only shake his head helplessly.
" Old Zhao, the brigade headquarters will definitely find out later. We'll need your help. Just tell them that we'll keep the horses and send a hundred mortars and four thousand rounds of ammunition to the brigade headquarters…"
Although it was painful, this was something that had to be done. It couldn't be done without a cavalry company!
Otherwise, the Japanese cavalry would not be able to fight. They could not use infantry to fight the cavalry, right?
They had strong troops and strong horses. Their mobility was too high. Before you could kill a few, you would probably be trampled into mud by their hooves.
"I know! You, you really know how to find trouble for me!”
Zhao Gang left angrily.
Su Wen chuckled. He used a hundred mortars to shut the brigade commander's mouth. Otherwise, he would definitely snatch his horse!
In the next few days, Su Wen accompanied Chu Yunfei around. Today, he went to the cavalry company, and tomorrow, he went to another camp. In any case, he could see whatever he wanted to see.
Fortunately, Chu Yunfei didn't ask him to go to the back of the mountain. Otherwise, he really couldn't refuse.
"Brother Su, the style of your army these few days is really refreshing. Thinking about how your army only had tens of thousands of people at the beginning, it does make sense that you have hundreds of thousands of people now!”
Chu Yunfei couldn't help but sigh." It's just that your army has always advocated guerrilla tactics. Pardon me for being blunt, but could it be caused by a lack of combat strength?"”
"That's the reason, but our Independent Regiment doesn't just know how to fight guerrilla warfare.”
Su Wen accompanied Chu Yunfei to visit the second camp. Just as they were talking, Shen Quan walked over.
"Reporting to Regiment Commander, the political commissar sent someone to inform you to the Regiment Headquarters. There's an emergency!”
"Alright, I got it. Go do your work!”
Su Wen thought for a moment before inviting Chu Yunfei to go with him.
"Brother Su, that's not good, right? For your army's emergency, let me, a member of the Jinsui Army, go…"
Chu Yunfei smiled and said to Su Wen.
"It's fine. I still want to hear Commander Chu's brilliant opinion!”
As they spoke, the two of them quickly arrived at the compound of the regiment headquarters and understood the situation.
"The recent actions of the Japanese are a little unpredictable. Look, the Japanese troops here have advanced thirty to forty miles without any warning. I don't know what provoked them.”
"It's the same here. Although there's no major movement, according to the scouts, the Japanese have also stepped up their patrols recently!”
"Okay, I know. It seems that the Japanese are also very nervous!”
Su Wen naturally knew the reason. It was most likely because a group of Japanese observation groups had recently arrived near the Huting stronghold, so the nearby enemy troops were frequently mobilized.
"Looks like the heavens are rewarding us!”
Su Wen laughed and immediately said,"Regiment Commander Chu has always disagreed with our combat strength. It just so happens that I'm preparing to attack the Huting Stronghold. Why don't you follow the army and watch our battle?”
"Oh? If that's the case, then I'll have to stay for a few more days!”
Chu Yunfei did not expect Su Wen to have the intention of attacking the Tiger Pavilion Stronghold. Although he did not say it out loud, he felt that Su Wen was a little too arrogant.
