The sword starts with copying the sharpshooter's ability

Chapter 163 8000 people
After looking at Shinozuka Yoshio, Yamamoto Ikki continued:

"Let those who surrender to us no longer be incorporated into the Imperial Army, but go back to be our eyes. This way, we can better grasp the whereabouts of the Eighth Route Army until we wipe them out!"

"Well, do it!"

Shinozuka Yoshio nodded and encouraged:

"I give you the first right to dispose of all prisoners. Let's see what you, Mr. Yamamoto, can do!"

Yamamoto Ikki stood at attention with full confidence and bowed his head:
"Hai!"

At the same time, Zhang Wu also returned to the independent regiment.

Hearing that Zhang Wu had returned, Li Yunlong's eyes lit up and he laughed and said to Zhao Gang:
"Haha, Lao Zhao, Zhang Wu is back. This guy really brought honor to our Independent Regiment and the Eighth Route Army this time!"

"Yes!"

Zhao Gang agreed with a smile:
"Who in the country doesn't know the name of our Zhang Wu now? A total of 20 planes, haha, the record created by our Zhang Wu this time is in no way inferior to the Yangmingbao victory of that year!"

"It's even bigger than the Victory of Yangmingbao!"

Li Yunlong corrected him seriously:
"The Yangmingbao Victory was fought by a regiment, and Zhang Wu is just one person. We have to charge into the middle of three battalions, which is much more difficult than the 3th Regiment!"

He stopped dwelling on this and couldn't help but walk out:

"Heads at all levels have commended him and given him a reward of 2 yuan. Damn it, Zhang Wu is now a rich man, a real landlord!

Let's go out and take a look. Zhang Wu has earned us so much face, we can't just act arrogantly!"

Zhao Gang followed closely behind:

"We should give sufficient respect to the heroes, especially Zhang Wu, who has made such a great contribution this time!"

As they were talking, the two of them left the regiment headquarters. Before they reached the village entrance, they saw Zhang Wu surrounded by soldiers.

The soldiers surrounded Zhang Wu, each of them showing pride in him.

Although they were not the ones who won the Yangquan Airport victory, they were in the same regiment as Zhang Wu, so it was still an honorable thing to tell others about it.

They couldn't help but give Zhang Wu a thumbs up, and they praised him generously:

"Zhang Wu, you've really made our independent regiment famous this time. Wow, 20 planes in total, you're really amazing!"

"Yes, even though we were surrounded by the Japanese, even the boss praised our Zhang Wu as a heavenly soldier!"

"In my opinion, with Zhang Wu's strength, let alone the heavenly soldiers and generals, it would not be an exaggeration for the boss to say that Zhang Wu is Taishang Laojun or the Jade Emperor!"

There were new recruits outside who were desperately trying to squeeze in, all wanting to see what the famous sharpshooter Zhang Wu looked like.

At this time, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang arrived.

Li Yunlong and others had almost finished praising him, and then he laughed and scolded:
"Alright, hurry up and gather everyone. I want to announce the award to Zhang Wu in public!"

After everyone left, Li Yunlong patted Zhang Wu on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Good job, you didn't embarrass me!"

Zhao Gang also smiled and nodded at Zhang Wu:
"One person destroyed 1 Japanese fighter planes. Zhang Wu, you really showed the power of our Eighth Route Army this time. Even the whole independent regiment benefited from it!

In order to commend your contribution, the leaders at all levels have sent you commendations, not to mention that even the CEO has given you a formal commendation..."

The boss's reward?!
Zhang Wu's eyes lit up, but before he could even curl his lips, he heard Li Yunlong rushing to say, "The Second War Zone and the Command also sent you a commendation and rewarded you with 2 yuan. You're a rich man now!"

There are also rewards and 2 yuan? !

Zhang Wu couldn't help but feel complacent any more. Since traveling through time, he was able to receive such great recognition, and they were all big shots. It was worth it even if he had to carry out the most important mission!

Thinking of this, he stood at attention and saluted:
"Relax, Commander and Political Commissar. I will continue to work hard and make new contributions. I will kill all the Japanese and throw them into the sea to feed the turtles!"

"Well, that's right!"

Li Yunlong nodded and took Zhang Wu to the assembly point, while Zhao Gang returned to the regiment headquarters to receive the commendation and money.

The three men went up to the stage in front of the soldiers one after another, and read out the commendations for Zhang Wu in front of all the soldiers, and handed a basket containing 200 tubes of silver wrapped in red paper to Zhang Wu.

When Zhang Wu once again became the most handsome man in the independent regiment amid the envious eyes and warm applause of the soldiers, Li Yunlong took the opportunity to set Zhang Wu as a benchmark, inspired the soldiers and started large-scale military training again.

With the blessing of Zhang Wu's great reputation, Li Yunlong did not need to raise the banner of recruiting soldiers. Young people came to join the army in large numbers. There were even people who came from hundreds of kilometers away to join the independent regiment.

In this way, less than a month after Zhang Wu returned, the Independent Regiment not only made up for the losses of the Zaoshan Detachment, but also expanded its force by 3500 people after removing the damaged weapons and equipment.

Because there were heavy casualties among the commanders and fighters in the previous battle, and there were many new recruits this time, Li Yunlong did not expand the new battalion, but maintained 12 battalions, each with 600 people!

Including the number of people in the regiment's direct company, engineering company, special service company, cavalry company, guard company, reconnaissance company, and artillery battalion, there are a total of 8000 people.

The current independent regiment has five main battalions at the front, each with eight heavy machine guns and thirty light machine guns; and seven main battalions at the back, each with six heavy machine guns and twenty light machine guns.

6 fully-staffed grenade launcher battalions, each with 36 grenade launchers, providing close-range artillery support.

1 reinforced infantry artillery battalion, 16 Type 8 infantry guns, and 75 simple mountain artillery battalion, Type mm mountain guns, to provide long-range artillery support.

With sufficient ammunition, we are truly strong and powerful.

At the same time, the latest intelligence from the special committee and instructions from the headquarters also reached the brigade commander.

Looking at the specific scale of the Japanese raid, the brigade commander's pupils couldn't help but shrink:

"Wow, there are 8 brigades, 20 independent battalions, and 6 mixed brigades of the Imperial Association. The scale of the Japanese's sweep this time has exceeded 10 people!"

"Yes!"

The Chief of Staff said solemnly:

"The 5st Brigade of Yangquan attacked Hexian, the 2th Brigade of Shouxian attacked Liaoxian, the 386th Brigade of Jinzhong and the Heishima Cavalry Regiment attacked Yuxian. In between, there were battalions and Imperial Association mixed brigades. Even if the th Brigade of Changzhi attacked southeastern Shanxi, our th Brigade would be under a lot of pressure!"

"The pressure is indeed great, but the Japanese want to eat us up in one bite, but they still lack good teeth!"

The brigade commander raised his lips in a mocking tone:
"Order the New 771st Regiment and the st Regiment to block the st Brigade in Yangquan, and the New nd Regiment and the Directly Affiliated Regiment to deal with the th Brigade. As for the Japanese attacking Yu County, send a telegram to Li Yunlong and ask him what the size of the independent regiment is now?

The Japanese general attack will be in half a month, and if you take into account the journey in between, it will be 20 days, which is enough time for Li Yunlong to choose a suitable blocking position! "

The Chief of Staff nodded:

"Okay, I'll send the message right away!"

After receiving the inquiry telegram from the brigade commander, Li Yunlong immediately rubbed his hands:
"Haha, finally there's a mission, I can hardly wait!
Call the brigade commander back immediately. The independent regiment now has 8000 men and is ready for battle. Please give us your instructions, brigade commander!"

　I beg you to support me, give me monthly tickets, recommendation tickets, collection and investment rewards~
