"After that, the head of the headquarters, I found a solution to the problem at once." After reading the telegram from the headquarters, the brigade commander said with some emotion, "This is the only way."

Chief of Staff Yang Dakui said: "What method?"

The brigade commander said: "Organize an elite force to open up a new anti-Japanese base."

"What?" Yang Dakui widened his eyes and said in disbelief, "We Taihang, the two military regions of Taiyue are already in such difficulty. Not only are there little ammunition left, but we are almost unable to eat food, but we also have to organize troops to expand to the outside line to open up new anti-Japanese bases? Could this be successful?"

"Chief of Staff, this is the limit of our thinking."

The brigade commander said: "The head of the headquarters has a higher vision than ours."

Wang Ye on the side also smiled and said, "Indeed, in the face of difficulties, we have always thought about how to survive. If there is insufficient ammunition, we should fight less, or even not fight. If there is insufficient food, we should find ways to raise food. In short, we should solve the difficulties, rather than breaking out of this dilemma and breaking the situation from a higher level."

"Gou?" the brigade commander smiled, "This word Gou is well used and very vivid."

"It's true, we're really Gou now." Yang Dakui smiled self-deprecatingly and continued, "But it's not easy to get out of this predicament, right?"

The brigade commander said, "It depends on how you jump and where you jump."

While talking, the brigade commander got up and walked to the big map.

Yang Dakui and Wang Ye also walked over, staring at the map.

"Look at this place, the northwestern Henan region." The brigade commander pointed to the lower right side of southeastern Shanxi and said, "This area connects to our Taihang base in the west, to the north, to the south of Hebei base in the east, to the Shandong Military Region! If we can open up a new anti-Japanese base in the northwest of Henan..."

"My God." Yang Dakui said excitedly, "Then our Shanxi-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei-Hebei

Wang Ye said: "Okamura Yanji's cage policy will also go bankrupt!"

"Yes, that's it!" said the brigade commander, "This move by the head of the headquarters has alleviated the food crisis in the Taihang Military Region and our Taiyue Military Region. The most important thing is to crack down on Okamura's cage policy, crush the attempts of the Japanese army to divide, block, and siege our various bases!"

Yang Dakui said: "So what the head of the headquarters means is to draw an elite force from our Taiyue Column to open up a new base in northwest Henan?"

"That's what the head of the headquarters means." The brigade commander nodded, "Who do you think is suitable for Chief of Staff?"

"That must be Li Yunlong." Yang Dakui said, "When it comes to tough battles, Cheng Shifa, Kong Jie may not be much worse than Li Yunlong and Ding Wei. When it comes to the pattern, it must be Ding Wei. But if anyone has many ideas and can open up a new situation, it must be Li Yunlong. This kid is used to lawlessness. He had not caused much trouble when he was in northwest Shanxi before. This time he went to northwest Henan and was even more mountains and the emperor was far away. No one could control him. That would be a big deal?"

"It doesn't matter if you get into trouble." The brigade commander waved his hand and said, "As long as you don't harm the people."

"That won't." Yang Dakui said, "Li Yunlong's trouble was mainly caused by military trouble. He still has the principle of party spirit and will definitely not harm the people. Besides, Zhao Gang is still there."

"Just Zhao Gang alone is not enough." The brigade commander shook his head and said.

Yang Dakui said in surprise: "Brig Commander, do you want to lead the team to northwest Henan in person?"

"I want to go, but unfortunately the head of the headquarters did not allow it." The brigade commander shook his head, turned his head and said to Wang Ye, "Xiao Wang, follow the 3rd Brigade to northwest Henan."

Wang Ye said: "Brig Commander, I can't control the regiment commander."

The brigade commander said: "I asked you to go, not to let you take Li Yunlong, but to take you to the Wolf Warrior Team as a vanguard and enter northwest Henan first to find out the local enemy situation. In this way, the main force can open up the situation as soon as possible after entering northwest Henan. The grain from the southern Hebei Military Region can flow from northwest Henan to the Taihang Military Region and the Taiyue Military Region."

Wang Ye said: "Then I understand. Don't worry, the brigade commander, the Wolf Warrior Team promised to complete the mission."

After a pause, Wang Ye said again: "Brig Commander, the more than 200 newly recruited team members have not completed the training yet, and it is not suitable to go to the battlefield for the time being, so let Wei Dayong take them to continue training. I only bring more than 30 old team members there, so the goal will be smaller and more conducive to action."

The brigade commander said: "Okay, listen to you, you are the expert in special operations."

Wang Ye said: "Brig Commander and Chief of Staff, it's not appropriate to go to the northwest of Henan without delay."

"Wait." The brigade commander waved his hand and said, "This time I went to northwest Henan, it's three or four hundred miles. Although everyone in your Wolf Warrior Team is a hero, isn't the food that can't keep up now? So I have to match you with horses."

"Brig Commander, there's no need for this." Wang Ye said, "There are not many horses left in the military region."

As the Japanese blockade intensified, the conditions of the Taihang Military Region and the Taiyue Military Region became increasingly difficult, and people were unable to eat enough, let alone war horses. So now, all the cavalry system has been abolished, and the reduced war horses have also been handed over to brother troops of the Hebei-South Military Region and the Shandong Military Region, because the conditions there are relatively better.

Now there are only a small number of horses left in the entire Taiyue Military Region, which are used for communication and chief riding.

Now the brigade commander has to take out more than 30 military horses to equip the Wolf Warrior Brigade, which means that the brigade commander and the chief of staff can only march on foot when they go out.

So Wang Ye was a little disgusted.

The brigade commander insisted: "It's settled, Xiao Wang, don't have to say more."

After a pause, the brigade commander turned his head and said to Yang Dakui: "Chief of Staff, let the Logistics Department kill two mules and give the Wolf Warrior Team a full meal, and bring the remaining meat to them as dry food."

"Brig Commander, this is really not necessary." Wang Ye said, "We can solve this problem ourselves, otherwise we can call it Wolf Warrior Team, Sheep Team."

"I forgot that you can still find the Japanese puppet army to fight Qiufeng." The brigade commander laughed and said, "Okay, then I won't prepare dry food for you. You can find a way to solve it, but you have to bring enough ammunition."

With a team of more than 30 people, the brigade commander can still afford sufficient ammunition.

Two hundred bullets per person are only six or seven thousand bullets.

"Team Commander, take care of the Chief of Staff." Wang Ye stood at attention and saluted.

After seeing Wang Ye away, the brigade commander sent another staff officer to call Li Yunlong over.

When he received the order, Li Yunlong was huddling on the kang with his sleeves and napping. In this cold winter, there was nothing to do, and there was no goods in his stomach. In order to reduce energy consumption, he could only lie on the kang.

When Li Yunlong heard that the brigade commander was looking for him, he immediately came over happily.

"Brig Commander, Brigade Commander." Li Yunlong shouted as soon as he came in, "Are you going to treat me to a meal?"

"Here, I'll give it to you." The brigade commander used torches to peel off a few scorched potatoes from the stove, gave one to Li Yunlong, and handed the other to the Chief of Staff, and broke the remaining one by himself.

"Just eat this?" Li Yunlong said, "This is too stingy."

The brigade commander was suddenly pissed and scolded: "What do you want to eat?"

Li Yunlong said hummingly: "You brigade commander invites people to dinner, and you have to have wine and meat no matter what. Chief of Staff, do you think? Is the brigade commander always stingy? He is really stingy."

Yang Dakui smiled and said, "Why, do you want to drink and eat meat?"

"I think about it, why don't I think about it?" Li Yunlong said without hesitation, "I dream of drinking and eating meat."

The brigade commander said: "There is such a place where you can drink and eat meat. I don't know if you want to go?"

"Why don't you want to go?" Li Yunlong stood up, "Building Commander, wherever you go, do you want to go?"

The brigade commander immediately stood up and said with a serious expression: "According to the instructions of the head of the headquarters, and after the research and decision of the Military Region Party Committee, you will use your independent 3rd Brigade as the base, assist in logistics, medical care, communications and Wolf Warrior Brigade and other units to independently form the Northwest Henan Detachment, with Li Yunlong as the commander and Zhao Gang as the political commissar."

"Northwest Henan Detachment?" Li Yunlong really didn't expect this.

"Yes, the Northwest Henan Detachment." The brigade commander said solemnly, "Li Yunlong, please listen to me. This time I send you to Northwest Henan is responsible for a arduous task. I don't have much time to waste it for you. After arriving in Northwest Henan, you must open up the situation in the shortest time and give you a specific time limit, that is, before the end of the year!"

Yang Dakui immediately said: "The situation must be opened before the end of the year. By the beginning of next spring, a solid base must be opened in several counties in northwestern Henan, especially the transportation between the southern Hebei Military Region and the Taihang Military Region must be opened so that the grain from the southern Hebei Military Region can be transported to the Taihang Military Region and our Taiyue Military Region."

"Yes." Li Yunlong replied proudly without any hesitation, "Please guarantee to complete the task!"

After saying that, Li Yunlong immediately changed into a flattering smile and asked, "Builder Commander, where is Xiao Wang?"

Li Yunlong was still very happy to have Wang Ye and his Wolf Warrior Team regained the 3rd Brigade, thinking that Wang Ye would not fly out of my Five Fingers Mountain.

"Xiao Wang has already led the Wolf Warrior Brigade to the northwest of Yunyu." The brigade commander said in a deep voice, "You should also make preparations after you go back, and then take the troops out in two days."

"Brig Commander, don't have to wait for two days." Li Yunlong said arrogantly, "Let's go today."

After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "But I have a condition to bring enough dry food for our 3rd Brigade soldiers for seven days, and also have a base of ammunition."

"You can consider dry food for seven days, but don't think about a base ammunition."

The brigade commander snorted coldly and said, "I have given you a base ammunition of the 3rd Brigade. My entire Taiyue Column should sing the empty city plan. How can I do such a good thing?"

Li Yunlong said dissatisfiedly: "Brig Commander, if you don't want to give me a base of ammunition, then you have to give me an artillery company, which is about to be established, right?"

"Old Li doesn't need much equipment."

"It's enough to give 4 American mountain cannons."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong said again: "The Brigade Commander, you have to give a dowry to marry your daughter. Although our 3rd Brigade is not getting married this time, the meaning is similar. Should we support the storefront for a few mountain cannons?"

"You need artillery?" the brigade commander snorted, "Simple, I'm going to find the Japanese puppet army myself."

Li Yunlong had to speak again, but the brigade commander was impatient and cursed: "Go and go, Li Yunlong, I warn you, don't bother me with such nothing. There is a saying I have said to you, and I will tell you again today. Since you are capable of being the commander of this detachment, you must have the ability to make guns and cannons by yourself, otherwise you should go home as soon as possible to bring your children."

Speaking of this, the brigade commander suddenly said, "Hey, Li Yunlong, your wife should have given birth, right?"

"It's been born, it's been born long ago." Li Yunlong grinned, "I gave birth to a son, hehe."

"Hello, my son, I just want to have more sons." The brigade commander smiled, "The Chinese revolution needs successors."

Speaking of this, the brigade commander said again: "Your wife gave birth to a son for you. In theory, the organization should give you a family leave and ask you to go back to see your wife and son, otherwise it would be better to go Ding Wei?"

"Okay, brigade commander, this is not a pity." Li Yunlong was anxious when he heard this, "My wife and son are in Yan'an, and they won't fly away. Our old Li can go back at any time."

"Okay, it's a big worry for you." The brigade commander cursed.

Li Yunlong thought to himself, how can you not be anxious? This time he went to northwest Henan and was a prince!

When he was in northwest of Jin, although he was also a prince, there were Ding Wei and Kong Jie on an equal footing with him. But this time he went to northwest of Henan, he was the only prince, and he was the only prince.

How can such a beautiful miser be easily given to others?

With a snorting, the brigade commander said again: "The boss has been stationed near Changzhi during this period. If you take the troops to northwest Henan, you must pass by Changzhi. You can meet the boss by the way. The boss has something to say to you."

"I understand." Li Yunlong agreed.

He could even guess what the boss was going to say to him.

It’s just to let him not cause trouble when he goes to northwest Henan.

Causing trouble? Our old Li has never caused trouble.
