Liang Jian: Commander, save some for me

Chapter 790

More than 600 soldiers died last night, but they killed a large number of Japanese devils. Chu Yunfei was very satisfied with this.

"Commander, Mu Jin's soldiers are really awesome. Without them, we wouldn't be able to stop the Japanese at all." Fang Ligong couldn't help but praise Mu Jin's troops again.

"Yeah, I understand!" Chu Yunfei naturally knew this better.

.........

When Chu Yunfei and the others returned to their camp, Li Jin also found an opportunity to take Xu Qingfeng to meet Li Yunlong.

"Captain! Political Commissar!" In the woods, Li Jin and Xu Qingfeng saw Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang and immediately saluted them.

Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang also saluted in return.

"Thank you for your hard work these days!" Li Yunlong walked up to Li Jin and patted him on the shoulder with a smile on his face.

He was very happy about the fact that so many Japanese devils were wiped out last night.

"It's not hard. This is what I should do. But it's the captain who has worked hard, traveling a long distance to support me." Li Jin responded.

If the New 1st Regiment had not come to support this time, Li Jin would not have been absolutely sure that he could annihilate so many Japanese devils.

Judging from the performance of the Japanese last night, there was still a more powerful one among these Japanese commanders. He saw through his plan and chose to retreat as soon as possible.

If the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment had not blocked the Japanese in the rear, they might have escaped.

"We did it all to fight the Japanese. The number of Japanese we killed this time is more than all the ones we killed before combined!" said Li Yunlong.

Although they had killed quite a few Japanese devils before, the total number they killed was not as many as they did this time.

"Li Jin, you have really made a great contribution this time. The Japanese have suffered heavy losses. We can basically develop with peace of mind in the second half of the year. Our strength will grow even faster!" Zhao Gang on the side couldn't help but praise him.

He was very happy when he thought that many bases in the future would no longer face the threat of the Japanese invaders and could focus on developing their strength.

He was even somewhat fortunate that the brigade commander had sent him to the New 1st Regiment as political commissar, allowing him to meet many capable people there.

"I don't really care whether it's a credit or not. The most important thing is that I can contribute to the overall situation!" Li Jin said seriously.

He really didn't care about the size of the credit, he only cared about whether he could kill more Japanese devils.

"Well, your awareness is indeed very high. No wonder the brigade commander and others value you so much." Zhao Gang nodded with satisfaction and said.

He is not a fool. From the brigade commander's attitude towards Li Jin, it can be seen that the brigade commander has hope for Li Jin.

"Come to think of it, the New 1st Regiment shouldn't have suffered too many casualties last night, right?!" Li Jin changed the subject and asked.

The battle of the New 1st Regiment last night was basically fought by the New 1st Regiment itself.

"The casualties are not heavy. Overall, more than 400 soldiers were killed and more than 200 were injured." Li Yunlong announced the casualty data.

They sacrificed more than 400 soldiers, but wiped out two to three thousand Japanese devils. Although they did it in an ambush, it also shows that the combat effectiveness of the New 1st Regiment was stronger than many troops.

It is not an exaggeration to call it the strongest group.

"If the soldiers of the New 1st Regiment really confront the Japanese head-on, I estimate that they can at least achieve a casualty ratio of three to one, or even two to one." Li Jin nodded.

No matter what, the firepower of the New 1st Regiment is not much worse than that of the Japanese. The only difference is that the Japanese have tanks, planes, cannons and so on.

The new group doesn't have these things.

"This is all thanks to you. If it weren't for you, the New 1st Regiment wouldn't be as strong as it is now!" Li Yunlong was very grateful to Li Jin.

Although the development speed has been quite good since he joined the New 1st Regiment, without Li Jin, he would not have been able to develop to this level in such a short time.

The New 1st Regiment didn’t even have a single heavy machine gun before, but now it has dozens of them and an artillery company, with extremely powerful firepower.

If you compare the current New 1st group with the previous New 1st group, they would be completely defeated.

All of this is thanks to Li Jin. Not to mention their group, even the current overall development, Li Jin's contribution is enormous.

"It can't all be attributed to me. It's the result of everyone's joint efforts! I just contributed a little." Upon hearing this, Li Jin quickly waved his hands and said, he didn't dare to take all the credit on himself.

"You are so modest, kid. You have done so many great things but it's just a small contribution. Then none of us can be counted as having contributed anything." Li Yunlong said unhappily.

He was also convinced. Li Jin was a man who had no greed for credit at all. The only thing on his mind was to kill the Japanese. There was really nothing he could do about it.

"Old Li is right. Li Jin, don't be so modest." Zhao Gang also started to praise. He also saw the contributions made by Li Jin.

He didn't see Li Jinli's contributions before, but after he came to the New 1st Regiment, he knew how much Li Jinli had contributed.

Li Jin felt a little embarrassed by the compliment and scratched his head awkwardly.

"Come to think of it, how did you think of telling Chu Yunfei the training method?!" Li Yunlong changed the subject and asked.

Although he already had the answer to this matter in his mind, he still had to hear it from Li Jin himself, otherwise, it would be difficult for him to explain to the brigade commander.

Zhao Gang also looked at Li Jin when he heard this. This matter was not a big deal, but it was not a small matter either. If it were not for the Japanese devils, there would probably be conflicts between them and that side.

"Captain, are you talking about the fact that I told others about the psychological training method?!" Li Jin also thought of this. He guessed that Chu Yunfei had told Li Yunlong about this.

"What else?" Li Yunlong asked back.

"Actually, I just want to prevent a few new recruits from dying over there. After all, they are our own troops.
Since I have the ability to keep a few of them alive, I can't just sit there and do nothing.
Besides, even if this method is told to others, they will definitely take it seriously.

Do you think Commander Yan will share this method with others? So, if I pass it on, it won’t be a big problem.” Li Jin began to analyze.

He dared to spread the method because he took these things into consideration.

Although the psychological training method he taught was not as good as the new training method, it could still improve the combat capability of new recruits, or in other words, enable new recruits to exert their due combat effectiveness and increase their hope of survival.

This psychological training method is indeed very useful. After Commander Yan gets it, he will naturally consider whether to hand it over. Even if he does, it is still a question whether the people above him will give it to other people.

After all, there is no harmony within the national army.

"Well, what you said is similar to what I thought. No matter what, our biggest enemy right now is the Japanese." Li Yunlong nodded and said.

After learning from Chu Yunfei that Li Jin taught him the method of psychological training, he considered many situations.

But what he actually considered was that Li Jin wanted to reduce the number of deaths of soldiers in the 358th Regiment, and he had not considered the rest. Now that Li Jin explained it, he also understood that Li Jin dared to pass it on, and he also thought carefully.

"In short, for now, this method will not have much impact and you can just keep it in mind." Li Jin continued, as long as the new training method is not spread, the combat effectiveness over there will not be too strong.

"I know you don't act rashly, but you still need to tell the brigade commander about this matter.
We are the only ones who know about this, to prevent others from making a fuss about it." Li Yunlong said this and gave another serious warning.

He asked Li Jin not to tell this to anyone in the future. As for Chu Yunfei, he didn't know Li Jin's true identity and probably still believed that Li Jin was really a member of the Northeast Army.

"Okay, I understand." Li Jin nodded, indicating that he would pay attention.

"Okay, you kid should go and have a rest." Li Yunlong said.

In fact, among these people, Li Jin is the most tired.

In order to ensure that there are no problems in every link, Li Jin has consumed a lot of energy. This kind of tiredness is not physical, but mental.

Although Li Jin has a strong physique, he might not be able to hold on if he continues like this.

"Okay, Commander, Political Commissar, we'll leave first." Li Jin said, and left with Xu Qingfeng.

"This kid Li Jin, sometimes I really worry about him." Li Yunlong looked at Li Jin's back and felt a little emotional.

"Yes, Li Jin has much more things to consider than us, especially this mission. He must be exhausted to have completed it so successfully." Zhao Gang admired Li Jin very much.

If he were to carry out this mission, it would probably be difficult for him to even anger the Japanese. Only Li Jin could do it. Not only did he anger the Japanese, but he also forced them to send out so many soldiers to encircle and suppress them.

Unfortunately, the Japanese thought they could annihilate Li Jin, but in fact, they walked step by step into the trap set by Li Jin.

"Once the battle is completely over, Li Jin must be allowed to have a good rest for a while. He cannot be allowed to take any more tasks. I have to talk to the brigade commander in person!" Li Yunlong made the decision.

No matter how powerful Li Jin is, he is still a human being and cannot be treated like a donkey.

"Of course I will go with you to talk to the brigade commander then." Zhao Gang also agreed with what Li Yunlong said.

.........

Around 7:30 in the morning.

Endo Ichiro was eating breakfast in the tent.

"Kamibayashi Kinsuke still hasn't replied to the telegram?!" Endo Ichiro asked the telegraph operator beside him.

"Yes, there has been no news since we sent the telegram last night." The Japanese telegraph operator responded quickly. He had not slept all night and had been waiting for news.

"This kid is really stingy. He can't stand my criticism, right?" Endo Ichiro felt helpless. He thought that Kamiya Kinyou was angry about his meddling, so he deliberately didn't reply to his telegram.

In fact, it is understandable. Shanglin Jinyou is famous for his caution. Whatever he can think of, Shanglin Jinyou must have thought of as well.

That's why when he sent a telegram to remind him, Shanglin Jinyou was too lazy to reply to his telegram.

"Brigade Commander, Brigade Commander Shanglin, is it possible that something unexpected happened? That's why you didn't reply to the telegram?!" The Japanese telegraph operator couldn't help but interrupt.

He felt that even if Endo Ichiro was giving orders, Kamiyasu Kinu would not fail to reply to the telegram. He would at least have to reply, so there was no need for you to teach him.

But now, there is no news at all, which seems really weird.

"Impossible, Shanglin Jinyou brought more than 12,000 soldiers into the mountains.
No matter how powerful the enemies in the mountains are, they can't do anything to Lin Jinyou, let alone let them get into trouble." Endo Ichiro directly denied what the telegraph operator said and analyzed it carefully.

With so many soldiers, even if they were divided into four groups and advanced layer by layer, the enemy would not be able to concentrate their forces to break out in one direction.

Perhaps the enemy really has the ability to destroy the imperial soldiers in one direction, but that can only be done under the premise that the soldiers in the other three directions do not come to support.

Therefore, Shanglin Jinyou must have deliberately not replied to his telex, thinking that he was meddling.

"Maybe I'm really overthinking it." Upon hearing this, the Japanese telegraph operator said nothing more, because what the brigade commander said did make sense.

No matter how powerful the enemy is, they only have so many people. How could they possibly do anything to Brigade Commander Lin?

"Okay, you can leave first." Endo Ichiro waved his hand and let the telegraph operator go down first.

"Hi!" The Japanese telegraph operator turned and left.

Endo Ichiro also finished his breakfast and asked someone to pack up his things. He got up and went to the headquarters tent.

Many officers are already waiting here!
"Brigade Commander!" A group of Japanese officers stood up and saluted Endo Ichiro.

"Well, have you eaten everything?!" Endo Ichiro nodded and greeted.

"I have eaten. Has the brigade commander eaten?!" the Japanese regiment commander also asked back.

"We've eaten, let's all sit down!" Endo Ichiro sat in the main seat.

"Today's attack plan remains unchanged. We will try our best to inflict greater casualties on these Shanxi-Suiyuan troops. Do you understand?!" Endo Ichiro said seriously.

"Hey! We will make sure to complete the mission!" A group of Japanese officers stood up and said.

"Go and get ready. I'll be waiting for your good news!" Endo Ichiro waved his hand.

The Japanese officers then left one after another.

Endo Ichiro looked at the huge sand table in front of him and remembered what the telegraph operator said.

Thinking about it carefully, Shanglin Jinyou seemed a little strange. Even if he was angry about his meddling, he shouldn't have not responded, right?!

But he changed his mind and realized that Shanglin Jinyou had indeed brought many people into the mountains. He might have been a little annoyed by the search for the enemy in the past few days, so he did not reply to his telegram.

"I must be overthinking it." Endo Ichiro shook his head, put aside those bad thoughts, and continued to study the subsequent combat situation.

.........

At this time, in the trenches of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army's position.

Many soldiers were eating, gnawing on hard steamed buns and swallowing them with water.

Many soldiers were wrapped in bandages. They were injured, but not seriously. Their wounds were simply treated. Because they were still able to fight, they could not go to the rear hospital to recuperate.

Only those soldiers who were seriously injured could go to the rear for recuperation.
