Li Yun Long had spent more than a year developing the new group, but Lin Zheng needed a month.
This was the difference!
Because of the battle at the Gray Cloud Ridge, the new regiment had suffered heavy casualties and was incomplete. However, Lin Zheng was still gradually developing.
With the continuous recruitment and expansion of troops, the new regiment's configuration was gradually standardized.
Lin Zheng personally divided the 1,500 men into four battalions, including three infantry battalions and one cavalry battalion.
Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion was made up of 300 people. The entire battalion was equipped with M1 Garand rifles. Their combat power was terrifying. They were the main battalion of the new regiment.
The remaining 2nd and 3rd Battalions were slightly lacking in terms of equipment, but they had more people. Each battalion had 400 people, and they were all equipped with the Japanese's 38th rifle and Hanyang's. However, in general, every soldier had a gun in their hands. This was considered the main force of the 8th Route Army.
As for the cavalry unit, it was also made up of 400 people. They had used all the warhorses they had brought back from Wan Jia Town. Similarly, all of them were equipped with weapons, although the weapons were somewhat uneven.
After all, New One was just starting out in Lin Zheng's hands. It was already considered pretty good to have such a performance.
A new group was revived!
This speed was considered very fast.
On this day, Lin Zheng went out to inspect the construction of the fortifications as usual.
On the surface, the construction of the fortifications in Yunling Village's base area was almost complete, but the underground tunnels were still expanding and developing in an increasingly complicated direction.
Lin Zheng came to the entrance of a tunnel under the dry well and was about to enter when the system's voice suddenly appeared in his mind.
Divine Treasure Chest System: " Ding! New yellow treasure chest mission released." The mission requirement is to save the refugees who will appear in Dragon Whisker Valley three days later. After completing the mission, the host will receive a yellow treasure chest.”
Hearing the system announcement, Lin Zheng was stunned for a moment before a look of surprise appeared on his face.
What caught Lin Zheng's attention the most was naturally the Yellow Treasure Chest.
After taking down the Ten Thousand Town, the Yellow Treasure Chest given by the system had given him many good items. It would definitely not be bad this time.
Perhaps after the reward was confirmed, the new team's combat strength would once again receive a huge boost. Lin Zheng naturally wouldn't miss such an opportunity.
Furthermore, there was one thing that Lin Zheng was very interested in, and that was the refugees that he needed to save in the system mission.
After saving these refugees, most of them who were originally homeless would definitely be willing to join Cloud Ridge Village. After all, there were not many places willing to take in refugees.
What the base needed the most now was manpower and talents.
The population bonus could solve many problems.
Therefore, Lin Zheng would definitely complete the system mission.
Time passed quickly.
Three days later.
Lin Zheng personally led Zhang Dabiao's 1st Battalion to Longxu Gully, which was hundreds of kilometers away.
Dragon Whisker Valley was a terrain with a high center and low sides. The middle was a triangular plain that looked like a dragon's head.
The two sides were so low that they looked like dragon whiskers extending from the dragon's head.
Because of this special terrain, this place was called Dragon Whisker Gully.
Inside the two 'dragon whiskers' of Dragon Beard Ravine, there was a crooked dirt road that connected the two 'dragon whiskers' together.
According to the system's mission instructions, that group of refugees would appear in Dragon Whisker Valley.
As for the enemy they were going to face this time, Lin Zheng wasn't sure, but even if it was the Japanese, with the combat strength of the new regiment and battalion, it was enough to deal with them.
After all, the Japanese would not send out too many soldiers to deal with a group of refugees.
Soon, Lin Zheng led the soldiers of the 1st Battalion to the edge of the grassland at the corner of Dragon Whisker Gully.
Coincidentally, there was a slope that could reach the bottom of Dragon Whisker Gully. Moreover, it was high up in the sky, so it was the most suitable place for an ambush.
"Everyone, ambush on the spot and wait for the battle order.”Lin Zheng waved his hand and stopped the entire team."Without my orders, no one can move.”
All the soldiers of the new regiment and battalion lay down on the ground, trying their best to hide in the grass that was half a meter high.
Meanwhile, Lin Zheng and Zhang Dabiao were lying on the edge of the high ground, observing the empty Dragon Whisker Valley.
At this moment, there was nothing in Dragon Whisker Valley. It was extremely quiet.
All the preparations had been made and they were just waiting for the refugees to arrive.
Zhang Dabiao knew nothing about this operation. He looked at Lin Zheng and asked," Leader, what's our mission this time?"”
"Don't worry, you'll know soon.”Lin Zheng smiled and kept Zhang Dabiao in suspense.
In the end, he waited for half an hour.
However, half an hour was nothing to the new group of warriors.
For a sneak attack mission, they could wait for a day or even a few days. When they were hungry, they would eat dry rations. When they were thirsty, they would eat grass to replenish their water.
The soldiers of the Eighth Route Army never lacked perseverance.
This was also the main reason why they were able to win despite the lack of equipment.
Just as all the soldiers of the new 1st Regiment and 1st Battalion were prepared for a long battle, a series of messy footsteps suddenly came from afar. From the sound of it, there were quite a number of people.
Lin Zheng and Zhang Dabiao looked towards the source of the voice at the same time. A group of thousands of refugees appeared in their field of vision…
