Since Xiong Xuejun and Wu Hancheng arrived in Qinghe, Li Qinglin threw the two into Li Gousheng's direct squadron to serve as soldiers. I haven't seen each other these days. Li Qinglin saw that the two of them are standing and sitting now, and they really look like they are in the army.

Wu Hancheng is young and short and thin, and now he looks a little taller than a rifle. Li Qinglin waved and asked the two of them to come to him. He asked, "The training is very hard, can you follow me now?"

Xiong Xuejun straightened his chest and said, "Report to Commander, we have been suffering since we were young, and this hardship is nothing."

Li Qinglin touched Wu Hancheng's head with care and said, "It's nothing to be a soldier when he is a soldier. The key is that he is not afraid of death. Do it well, but don't be a deserter on the battlefield. You must know that the more you become a deserter in my team, the faster you will die."

Wu Hancheng also stood up with a small breast and said, "Report to the commander, Wu Hancheng is definitely not afraid of death and will never embarrass you."

Li Qinglin laughed and said, "It's not bad, I'm now like a soldier."

Wu Hancheng's eyes rolled and said, "Commander, why can only the second brigade learn blasting technology? Can we learn it too?"

Li Qinglin was stunned when he heard this, and he immediately smiled and said, "At the beginning, I thought the Second Brigade was closest to the railway line, so I only considered asking the Second Brigade to send people to learn blasting technology. Now it seems that this idea is not completely correct. You can learn it if you want to. I think all brigades should send people to learn, and all brigades should set up blasting teams."

Speaking of this, Li Qinglin asked Ding Goudan to call out the big man and handed over Xiong Xuejun and Wu Hancheng to the big man, and specifically reminded them to join the blasting team to study.

The big man was short of soldiers now, and now he had two more soldiers out of thin air. Naturally, he agreed 120,000 yuan, and he immediately took the two of them away happily.

Looking at the backs of Xiong Xuejun and Wu Hancheng, Li Qinglin recalled what they did to steal Pan Ke on the streets of Xi'an, and he couldn't help laughing again.

Li Qinglin's prediction was correct. The big explosion of the railway destruction team shocked the "Imperial Army" road protection team on the Pinghan Line, and also made the Japanese garrison troops along the way more vigilant. As Li Qinglin judged, the Japanese devils stationed in Wan'an held a meeting overnight. According to Yan Boling's report, the meeting determined a policy, which was to ensure the safety of all facilities of the "Imperial Army" in Wan'an, including the absolute safety of railways, airports, highways, and docks. The Imperial Army and the Imperial Army must make ensuring safety the first priority in the near future. All troops immediately entered the airport and the strongholds along the highway and railway. "If anti-Japanese elements are planning ill-behaving, the Imperial Army and the Imperial Army will annihilate it by decisive means" to ensure the absolute safety of the Imperial Army's transportation "nervous system".

Because the Japanese army shrank its troops, Sun Dianying's troops began to become active again. They took the village abandoned by the Japanese army in absent manner and reported to their superiors that their troops had regained their positions from the Japanese army after hard fighting.

Li Qinglin felt relieved after learning the news. He already knew that the enemy would not be able to launch a large-scale attack on Sangyu Town or Qinghe recently. The Ninth Detachment can finally breathe a sigh of relief now.

The enemy will not attack for the time being, but it does not mean that Li Qinglin will not attack. At the military meeting a few days later, Li Qinglin proposed that each brigade of the Ninth Detachment must set up a blasting team. These blasting teams must use railway destruction teams as their division and launch attacks on Japanese and puppet transportation lines or personnel as much as possible. The targets of the attack include railways, highways, strongholds, enemy facilities, and all targets such as personnel.

At the same time, Li Qinglin also asked officers at all levels of the detachment to use all their strength to apply to the war zone for additional troops, ammunition, supplies, etc. At the meeting, Li Qinglin particularly emphasized that the enemy's suspension of attack is only a temporary phenomenon. When the enemy adapts to this tactic, they will definitely free up their hands to deal with the confidants around them.

Finally, Li Qinglin also put forward a requirement, that is, non-combatants of the Ninth Detachment immediately participated in military training, and this kind of military training must be normalized and regularized. Li Qinglin proposed that strengthening training by non-combatants was not a whim. He made this requirement after careful calculations.

Li Qinglin started from an ordinary soldier, from a squad leader, platoon leader, company commander to the captain of the third brigade. After experiencing many battles during this period, he knew very well that the quality of soldiers was important to the combat effectiveness of the troops. Therefore, in the troops he commanded, the cooks and baggage soldiers must have certain combat effectiveness. During combat, these non-combat troops can also make some efforts at the most critical moments.

After Li Qinglin came back, he asked someone to count the number of non-combatants in the headquarters and various brigades. After statistics, Li Qinglin was shocked. Starting from Liang Xixian and after Wu Cheng took office, in addition to combat personnel, there were also professional staff such as staff, military supplies, and communications in the command centers of the Ninth Detachment. These personnel totaled as many as 150 or 60 people, and there were also transportation supplies, which were not counted by the cooks.

The situation in the third brigade was better. Zhang Ergou maintained the good tradition of Li Qinglin during his tenure. These personnel were often trained, but the headquarters was different from the other two brigades. Wu Cheng, Wen Shaoxuan and others came from military academy. They believed that personnel like staff officers should be in the rear headquarters, especially Liang Xixian. He thought he was a political worker, and he would not think of going to the battlefield with the big head soldiers to fight. Therefore, these non-combatants have basically not been trained since they arrived locally.

The ninth detachment has nine squadrons, and the total number of these non-combatants is equivalent to a reinforcement squadron. Not only are these personnel unable to participate in the battle, but they even need to send other troops to protect them. Li Qinglin believes that this will seriously weaken the combat effectiveness of the troops. In response to this situation, Li Qinglin requires these personnel to undergo strict military training. He even proposed that the staff members should take turns to take the positions of platoon leader and other positions to directly gain practical experience, so that they will not make plans and command blindly.

When Li Qinglin listed the data one by one to explain the necessity of non-combats training, Liang Xixian and others knew that Li Qinglin was right, but they still didn't want to be so tired, so no one spoke out against it, but no one stood up to support it, and the venue was cold for a while.

Li Gousheng stood up and said, "Boss, you are right. They should practice hard, and at least they can protect themselves, right? My direct squadron has more than 100 people, and now they are staying in Qinghe all day. Why is this? Isn't it to protect these men?"

At this moment, He Chun, who was sitting in the corner and taking notes on the meeting, stood up and said frankly: "Who said we are masters? Who said we can't protect ourselves? I will go to the training ground tomorrow to let you see who is protecting whom."

After saying He Chun, Li Qinglin looked at He Chun with gratitude, then took the opportunity to go up and said to everyone: "Look, Mulan has come out, you guys are so embarrassed to be turtles with their heads?"

Speaking of this, Li Qinglin deliberately added a few words: "Anyway, you can't even compare to a girl, even if you are a turtle, it's nothing."

This was a bit hurtful. Liu Changda stood up and said, "Commander, our staff will start taking turns to train tomorrow."

Luo Dafu continued: "All our military supplies are also participating."

Liang Xixian had no choice but to say, "Military training is of course a good thing, and all the staff of our Political Training Department also participated."

Several leaders expressed their opinions, but the rest of the staff naturally had no opinions. After the meeting, all Li Qinglin's arrangements were implemented.

The railway destruction team's explosion in Xiaogangzi that night was extremely successful. Not only did they break the Japanese railway, but the subsequent chain explosions of the army intensified the damage effect of the railway. It took the Japanese a total of three days to clean up the scene and repair the railway.

The sudden arrival of the railway sabotage team caught the Japanese and puppets off guard. They quickly mobilized heavy troops to guard the way. Li Qinglin instructed Liang Xixian to send him an "important intelligence" to the Japanese through Liu Feng'an and Liu Yunsheng, that is, many people came to the railway sabotage team this time. Their main goal was not just railways. According to reliable information, the most critical goal of the railway sabotage team this time was to target airports near Wan'an.

The information sent back by Liu Feng'an forced Sasaki and others to believe it. Since the other party could have a general line-up, it would not be impossible to run to bomb the plane next. In order to be foolproof, some Japanese and puppet troops were urgently transferred to the airport to ensure the safety of the "Imperial Army" airport.

The Ninth Detachment, which had a breath of breath, did not stop its operations against the Japanese and puppets. The enemy strengthened their defense against the Pinghan Railway, so they turned their attention to the highway. The remaining iron-shelled thunders of the railway sabotage team were used.

The destruction team changed the landmines fired by electric shock to a method of detonating fire. When burying the mines, two holes were dug, one buried the mine, and a wooden board that was about to be sawn off the other side was placed, and a rope under the wooden board was a pull rope. The rope below the board was broken, and the rope below pulled the mine fuse, and the mine exploded immediately.

The Japanese's important local operations and the transportation of military supplies mainly rely on highways. The roads are very long and there are many places to take action than railways. The railway destruction team's mine-burning operation on the highway hit the enemy's weakness. For a time, the Japanese no longer used the highways and urgently dispatched mine-clearing engineers to clear mines on the highway.

What's strange is that after the Japanese engineers boarded the road, they did not sweep any mines. The sabotage team seemed to have stopped their actions on the road. In fact, the sabotage team did not stop their actions on the road. The reason why they stopped burying mines on the road was because they used up all the iron-shelled thunders brought.

The destruction team suddenly stopped acting, which made Sasaki and the others more convinced that the destruction team was making careful preparations now, and their next target was the airport. For a moment, the Japanese airport was in a panic near the devils' airport, as if they were facing a great enemy.

The Ninth Detachment was rushing to conduct military training in a short period of calm, and the request to the theater for replenishing troops and ammunition also echoed. The theater command agreed to send personnel and ammunition supplies in the near future, which made Li Qinglin breathe a sigh of relief.

The training of non-combatants is proceeding step by step. In order to improve the combat effectiveness of these personnel as soon as possible, Li Qinglin specially arranged veterans who had been through battle formations to be their instructors, including veterans brought down by Li Qinglin from Mount Feng.

The veterans who have been alive for death are full of battle stories. Some staff members who have never been to the battlefield have great respect for them. They often pester the veterans to tell stories when they are fine. The veterans' stories are basically related to war. After every test of life and death, those who can survive are the people who make the least mistakes on the battlefield.

The veterans' words and deeds are more useful than anything else. These non-combatants have gradually understood a truth, that is, their own military qualities are more important than anything else on the battlefield, and at the most critical moment, only themselves can save their lives. Under the influence of the veterans, military training has gradually advanced, which has made Li Qinglin very satisfied.

Everything seemed to be moving in a good direction, everything was very calm, but a few days later, Liang Xixian hurried over and said to Li Qinglin: "Commander Li, I got the information that the Eighth Route Army was soaring and vigorous, and I asked to figure out what they were doing. I have no friendship with them here, so I really need you to go there in person this time."...
