Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Only actual combat can make soldiers grow up quickly.

Not only the reconnaissance company and the sharpshooting company, but also the other company recruits, Li Jin also planned to let them fight against the bandits and then attack the checkpoints or bunkers guarded by a small number of Japanese.

"Understood!" Lu Changgong and Xiao Jinming nodded.

"You guys should go back first." Li Jin waved his hand and asked the two of them to leave.

"If the Hengshi Mine is conquered later, I will probably completely anger the Japanese. I think we should consider the next thing now." Xu Qingfeng said.

Conquering the Hengshi Mine is almost certain, but it will definitely anger the Japanese in Taiyuan, so they need to make plans in advance.

"Well, you are right. In the base area where we are now, I am worried that the Japanese will launch a raid on Taiyuan later.
Therefore, we have to lead the devils to where we want them to avoid affecting the common people. "Li Jin thought for a while and said.

When they secured the mine, the Japanese also knew that they still had troops here in Taiyuan. Therefore, the Japanese would definitely not let it go and they must prepare in advance.

Find a good location and let the Japanese raid the location they know. Only in this way can the people be safe.

Otherwise, while the Japanese are raiding, they will definitely attack the common people. This is not what Li Jin wants to see.

"So, we have to re-select a temporary residence. I propose to live here in Tianli Mountain Range." Xu Qingfeng spread out a map and pointed to the name of a mountain range on it.

"This location looks really good. Are there many villages?!" Li Jin asked, hiding in the mountains as a base. It would be impossible for the Japanese to encircle and suppress them without sending a large force.

Moreover, the current special operations battalion is no longer the 300 people it once was. Faced with the encirclement and suppression by tens of thousands of Japanese soldiers, they can only temporarily avoid the enemy.

Special Operations Camp Now, even if faced with an encirclement and suppression by tens of thousands of people, Li Jin is confident enough to leave half of these Japs behind and then withdraw.

"I sent people to check before. This place is relatively remote and there are no villages living here. That's why I chose this location as a temporary base." Xu Qingfeng said.

Li Jin had already considered this when he planned to attack the Hengshi Mine. Therefore, after Li Jin returned to the brigade headquarters, he sent someone to investigate.

Make sure that no common people live there, after all, he doesn't want to see the common people getting hurt.

"You are quite well prepared. You must have had this plan for a long time." After hearing this, Li Jin said with a smile.

Xu Qingfeng is a very considerate person, which is why Li Jin has always felt at ease with Xu Qingfeng.

"There's nothing you can do about it. Your kid's ability to cause trouble is too great, and you can't tolerate me not being careful." Xu Qingfeng said angrily.

After being surrounded by so many Japs before, he finally understood how courageous this kid Li Jin was. He simply didn't regard the Japs as human beings. Whenever he met the Japs, he would kill him.

"That's what you said..." Li Jin touched his nose awkwardly, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Anyway, first wipe out the bandits, and then let them attack a small number of Japanese to increase their actual combat capabilities.
After the Hengshi Mine is conquered, we will go directly to the Tianli Mountains. "Xu Qingfeng said.

The soldiers in the special operations battalion are already very strong in terms of training, but they lack actual combat capabilities and still need to practice more so that they can display their true combat effectiveness.

"Well, I'll do as you say." Li Jin nodded and said, and then he suddenly felt that when he went to the Tianli Mountains, he felt that he could make a big one and blow up the Japanese airport in Taiyuan.

"What are you thinking?!" When Xu Qingfeng saw Li Jin like this, he couldn't help but feel that Li Jin was trying to cause something big.

"Old Xu, don't be afraid, I have an idea." Li Jin looked at Xu Qingfeng with a smile, smiling kindly and looking approachable.

"I'm deaf and can't hear!" Xu Qingfeng said directly. This kid definitely wants to cause big trouble.

"No, Lao Xu, listen to me first."

"Listen to the bullshit, I won't listen, you kid definitely didn't tell any good bullshit!"

"I promise, I'm not causing any trouble." Li Jin said seriously.

"Are you sure?!" Xu Qingfeng looked at Li Jin and said, why didn't he believe it? This kid always wanted to cause trouble like this in the past, but will he be so calm this time? !
"Old Xu, what do you think, after the special operations camp is trained, how about we go to Taiyuan for a sneak attack?!" Li Jin said slowly.

"???Are you crazy? You're planning a sneak attack on Taiyuan. Do you know how many Japs are stationed there? They may not be able to escape by then!" Xu Qingfeng's eyes widened. He was obviously disturbed by Li Jin's plan. Shocked.

A sneak attack on Taiyuan is such a shameless thing that you can't even think of it. There are at least [-] Japanese soldiers stationed in Taiyuan, let alone Japanese soldiers in other surrounding counties.

"Don't worry, I just want to take over the airport established by the Japs in Taiyuan. Otherwise, during the war, the Japs will send planes to bomb from time to time. It would be meaningless at all.

If the Japanese airport is taken away, the Japanese will lose air control in Shanxi and it will be much more convenient to fight. "Li Jin explained.

A battle without air supremacy is the most difficult to fight. The key is that their troops are simply unable to compete with the Japanese for air supremacy.

The solution to that position is to blow up the Japs' largest airport, blowing up all the pilots and planes inside, leaving the Japs without air control for the time being.

Even if the Japanese build the airport later, it will still take time. During this period, Li Jin feels that he can do something bigger.

In short, if I don't turn Taiyuan upside down, I'm sorry he came all the way here.

"It seems to make sense, but isn't it a bit risky?! The Japs' airport will not be built outside Taiyuan. Once they do it, it will be difficult to escape." Xu Qingfeng was convinced.

If the Japanese's largest airport here can really be blown up, then neither side will have air supremacy, and their troops will have a great chance of winning in a fight.

"After blowing up the airport, we can evacuate to the Tianli Mountains. If the Japanese send people into the mountains, as long as they don't exceed 3000 people,

Let's look for opportunities to kill the Japs in the mountains. Half of the people are considering retreating!If you exceed it, break through directly.
With our fighting power at that time, if we want to run away, the Japanese will not be able to stop us. "Li Jin said slowly.

If there were too many Japs entering the mountains, he would still not think of keeping the Japs behind, but if there were fewer Japs entering the mountains, he would not hesitate.

If we don’t fight the battles we are sure of, when will we fight them? !
"You kid, haven't you thought of this a long time ago?" Xu Qingfeng looked at Li Jin after hearing this. He had already thought about the retreat route and what to do next, which made him have to doubt that Li Jin had already thought of it. That’s the plan.

"Nothing. I just thought about it. I think it's feasible. I need to send people to Taiyuan to do a good reconnaissance later and determine the retreat route.

We don't want to be like death squads. If we can fight, we will fight. If we can't, we will leave. "Li Jin said.

Bombing the airport was just an idea of ​​his. To implement it, he needed to find out the intelligence there. The most important thing was to find out the number of Japs in each branch and analyze the most convenient retreat route.

"Well, considering this now, it's still a bit too far. Let's knock down the Hengshi Mine first." Xu Qingfeng nodded and said.Their current mission is to rescue the people in the Hengshi Mine and knock down the Japanese arsenal. This is what they have to do now.

"If this airport could be blown up, it would probably piss the Japanese to death." Li Jin said. The Japanese airport in Taiyuan is the largest here. If this airport were to be blown up, the Japanese would probably vomit blood.

"Nonsense, we bombed the Japs before at a small airport in Wuhan, and the Japs sent tens of thousands of people to encircle and suppress us.
If they can blow up Taiyuan Airport, the Japanese will definitely kill us at all costs. "Xu Qingfeng rolled his eyes.

A large part of the reason why the Japanese can easily crush the Chinese troops is that they have absolute air supremacy. Although the Japanese can still fight without air supremacy, it will be more difficult.

"Yes, it seems that there will be more Japs entering the mountain than I thought. It's better to just run away and not fight the Japs." Li Jin said.

Anyway, just blow up the airport. The other important thing is to escape. I don't want to kill too many Japs, lest I be bitten by the Japs later and I'll have to pay a heavy price if I want to run away.

"Well, it's best if you think so. We still have to be cautious and don't cause big trouble at every turn." Xu Qingfeng nodded, expressing his relief.

"How about I just go and assassinate the Japs commander in Taiyuan?!" Li Jin suddenly said, it would be great if the Japs commander in Taiyuan could be killed.

If the two high-ranking Japanese officials, Anan Weiji and Ban Hengzhengshiro, were killed, it would probably cause a shock among the Japanese.

As soon as the words came out, Xu Qingfeng was so frightened that he almost lost his seat.

"Shut up! Don't do it! Can you please!!!" Xu Qingfeng cursed directly. He was really panicked.

Assassinating the Japanese commander, thanks to Li Jin's thinking, he felt that blowing up the airport was safer than assassinating these two things.

"Don't panic, I'm just saying, I don't want to die yet." Li Jin said.

He actually had this idea, but it didn't feel right. The probability of assassinating these two things was lower than the probability of bombing the airport.

The key is that even if the assassination is successful, he will probably have to stay there and won't be able to escape at all, but it's not like he can't find a way to do it.

"It's not enough to talk about it. You kid, you already have the idea of ​​​​doing it when you say it." Xu Qingfeng said. He didn't know Li Jin well yet. If he said it, he might already be thinking about how to kill the Japanese commander. .

"It's a joke, how is that possible..." Li Jin looked away with a guilty conscience. Xu Qingfeng was like a roundworm in his stomach, he knew him too well.

"Anyway, don't even think about it, otherwise I will tie you up directly." Xu Qingfeng said fiercely, he could do what he said.

"Okay, okay, don't think about it if you don't want to." Li Jin said quickly, letting Xu Qingfeng relax.

.........

Early the next morning, Li Jin set off with a company and rushed to the location of the bandits who had robbed the Japanese supplies.

The other companies have also set off, each rushing towards the target of their choice.

At twelve o'clock at noon, Li Jin and the others took a short rest in a forest deep in the mountains.

"How far are we from this group of bandits?!" Li Jin asked Xu Qingfeng.

"There are still about seven or eight miles away. This group of bandits is quite cautious. They will change their residence every once in a while. If two days pass, this group of bandits might not be here again." Xu Qingfeng said.

The soldiers sent to investigate happened to see this group of bandits changing their residence.

"Haha, I have done too many bad things, and I am afraid of death." Li Jin sneered. It didn't matter if he was cautious, it was the end of the road when he met his group of bandits.

At this time, the recruits in the first company were a little nervous. After training for so long, they were finally going into actual combat.

Of course, although they were nervous, they did not show it and were quite strong mentally.

Li Jin can naturally see that it is very effective to provide psychological training to the soldiers. If there is no psychological training, these soldiers will probably be so nervous that their hands will shake, and they will not be able to show their strength.

"They are pretty good." Li Jin boasted. Although the nervousness of the soldiers could be seen through some small movements, he could also feel that the soldiers were not particularly afraid.

"Yes, it's a good thing that we have been giving them psychological training. Otherwise, it would be really embarrassing and humiliating to have casualties even when fighting bandits." Xu Qingfeng said.

As the strongest unit of the Eighth Route Army, it would be really embarrassing if a group of bandits were killed and wounded.

.........

Deep in the mountains, there is a rather special place. There are four mountains in a row that look like greedy snakes.

Halfway up the second mountain, there are many buildings. This is where the bandits live!

Deep in the cave, in a relatively open area, dozens of bandits were drinking and eating meat. Sitting at the top was a bald, sturdy man with a sinewy face, aquiline nose, and triangular eyes. He looked bad at first glance. Provoke the Lord!

He is the boss, Chen Kan.

"Master, we have robbed the Japs' supplies, so the Japs won't come and cause trouble for us," said a thin young man sitting to the left of Chen Kan, who was the second master.

He had always been quite relieved about robbing the Japs of supplies a few days ago. After all, the Japs were not easy to deal with. If the Japs came to kill them, they would not be able to resist them.

"Second brother, what are you afraid of? It's been a few days. Have you seen any moves by the Japanese? Even if they want to cause trouble, they probably won't be able to find us. Relax!" Chen Kan didn't care.

They have already been robbed, is it possible that they still have to give it back to the Japanese? !What a joke, if word got out, how could he have the face to hang around here?

When the time comes, Chen Kan must not be ridiculed by his colleagues, saying that he is a coward for robbing the Japanese supplies and even having to exchange them back.

"First Master, we are only fighting those puppet troops, not the Japanese. The Japanese are very powerful in combat. Even the national army is no match for the Japanese, let alone us." The Second Master continued.

Although they were robbing the Japanese supplies, the problem was that the people they were escorting were not Japanese soldiers, but puppet troops.

If he faced the Japs, he wouldn't feel so easy to grab.

"What you said makes sense. Let's change our place of residence tomorrow." After thinking about it, Chen Kan said that he was not a person who refused to listen to advice, otherwise he wouldn't be alive today.
