Chapter 142 Second reconnaissance!

Wei Dayong looked at Zheng Yu and then at Huang Erhu.

A thorn in the side, a coward.

This new batch of recruits is really a bit like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

I scanned around again and found no special soldiers.

The Wolf Fang Team has not recruited new members for a while. People like Wang Xikui and Yang Dahe have grown up, and it is time for them to grow and develop.

After all, Duan Peng is a character in the original drama. Wei Dayong is very familiar with him and directly let him join the Spike Team.

As for Zheng Yu and Huang Erhu, they do have some qualifications, but they still need to observe them for a while first.

Wei Dayong was not afraid of being stabbed in the head or being a weak soldier, but he was afraid of not having the ability.

No matter how hard he is stabbed in the head, he can still be submissive. No matter how bad the soldier is, if he is asked to kill a few Japs, he will become more courageous.

Yang Dahe was not afraid of death before, but now he is more courageous than anyone else.

During the next journey, Wei Dayong told a story about how he led the Langya squad to run for sixty miles and attack the Xiaowangzhuang gun tower at night.

Just four or five people, without firing a shot, captured a platoon's equipment and killed a whole squad of Japanese soldiers.

After hearing this, these recruits turned red and looked excited, wishing they could fight with the Japanese right away...

When we returned to Lijiacun, we happened to catch up with the special operations camp having lunch, so Wei Dayong asked the cooking team to prepare rice and vegetables for 100 more people.

If the Black Island Cavalry Regiment can be eaten, the soldiers will have endless meat for a long time to come.

While the recruits were eating, Wei Dayong discussed with Liu Dali and finally allowed half of the recruits to be replenished to the third company, and the rest were evenly replenished to the second and first companies.

After all, in the first three battles, the third company suffered the greatest losses.

Huang Erhu and Zheng Yu were both thrown to the third company. Wei Dayong asked the third company commander Wang Xikuan to pay more attention to the situation of these two soldiers.



A week passed by in a flash.

During this period, in addition to training closely, Wei Dayong also paid close attention to the movements of the Black Island Cavalry Regiment.

As he and Li Yunlong expected, Japanese troops from other directions returned to their bases after sweeping through the periphery of the base area.

The Black Island Cavalry Regiment stayed in Yushe County and planned to stay there for a long time to deter the Taihang and Taiyue base areas.

After all, the Independent Regiment captured Yushe County with just one regiment, which really frightened the commander of the Japanese First Army, Yoshio Shinozuka.

The Black Island Regiment will not return to Yangquan until the Japanese army establishes new order in Yushe County.

However, it will not take a day or two to regain control of Yushe County and its surroundings. The Japanese army is stretched thin, and it will take a lot of time to deploy thousands of Japanese and puppet troops from other places to Yushe County to maintain law and order.

If the Eighth Route Army suddenly launches an attack during this period while the new troops stationed in Yushe County have not yet established a stable foothold, the consequences will be disastrous.

Yoshio Shinozuka and his staff believed that only the Eighth Route Army of the Black Island Cavalry Regiment guarding Yushe County, Taihang, and Taiyue would not dare to act rashly.

Yoshio Shinozuka even gave Kuroshima Alliance Captain the right to seek fighter planes to take the initiative to attack and deal a heavy blow to the Eighth Route Army.

After all, the cavalry is a highly mobile unit, coming and going like the wind. Even if they are defeated, they can escape quickly.

It was not until the seventh day that the Huangyadong Arsenal delivered 150 Yunlong knives and 10 triangular military thorns to Wei Dayong.

It's a day or two later than the original time, but it's understandable. The arsenal must have worked overtime to make it.

The Yunlong knife produced by the arsenal is exactly the same as the prototype knife made by Qin Blacksmith. The only difference is that the Yunlong knife produced by the arsenal is engraved with the words "Yunlong knife, drive away Japanese pirates".

A hand guard is added to the handle of the Yunlong Knife to prevent it from falling off when hacking on horseback.

Moreover, every Yunlong sword has a scabbard.

No matter in terms of sharpness or length, it completely beats the Japanese Army's Type 32 saber.

An inch is an inch long.

The reason why the Japanese cavalry had the upper hand in the confrontation with the Ma Jiajun was because the Type 32 saber was longer than the Ma Jiajun cavalry saber.

The Yunlong Sword designed by Wei Dayong is based on the "Xue Feng Sword" and is specially designed for the Japanese Army's Type 32 Cavalry Sword.

Although the Japanese soldiers were strong, they were generally short in stature and had short arms. The Yunlong sword was five or six centimeters longer than the 32-style saber, which could give full play to the Chinese cavalry's long arms.

The soldiers of the cavalry company who got the Yunlong Sword also couldn't put it down for the new saber.

The cavalry company of the independent regiment has been established for some time, and has fought in many battles, large and small.

Although they serve as a transport company most of the time, the riding skills of the soldiers are quite impressive under Sun Desheng's training.

Even the Jinsui Army observation group that came to observe the Eighth Route Army was frightened by the cavalry company's formation.

The new Yunlong knife is light, sharp, and longer, and the training effect of the cavalry company is also very good.

It's quiet at night.

Li Yunlong took Wei Dayong, Zhang Dabiao, and the cavalry company, and quietly headed towards the south of Yushe County without alerting anyone.

Because they were traveling at night and on dangerous mountain roads, the cavalry marched slowly.

When they reached the main road, everyone started galloping on their horses.

The mountain road is particularly quiet at night, and from time to time nocturnal birds startle from the roadside.

However, everyone was riding well-trained war horses, and they were not frightened at all. They ran extremely steadily, whether on mountain roads or on main roads.

More than a hundred cavalry marched. The target was too big during the day, so they could only march at night.

There was a Japanese cavalry regiment in Yushe County, but the gap in strength was still too great, so we had to avoid its edge first.

As for why he brought along a cavalry company for reconnaissance, in addition to reconnaissance of the terrain, Li Yunlong naturally wanted to do some side work.

Last time Wei Dayong came out with the Langya team, but he brought back more than a dozen Oriental horses.

At present, the cavalry company can be said to be switching from guns to guns. If they encounter a small group of Japanese cavalry, they will rush forward and eat them.

If you encounter a large group of cavalry, grease the soles of your feet and sneak as far as you can.

This time it took nearly four hours to get from the Independent Regiment's base to Yushe County.

Everyone soon arrived at the terrain that Wei Dayong had found.

The sky was getting brighter, and Li Yunlong also saw the surrounding terrain. As Wei Dayong said, this place is indeed suitable for using machine guns to fight cavalry.

There is an open area underneath, with slopes of about 30 degrees on both sides, covered with trees and bushes.

There is a raised soil slope in the middle of the open land. On one side of the slope is open land, and on the other side is people's crop land, but it is already abandoned.

Li Yunlong was quite satisfied with the terrain. Although it was not as dangerous and favorable as the valley, the firepower of machine guns and artillery was sufficient, so it would be no problem to fight the cavalry.

The crux of the problem now is, how to lead the Black Island Cavalry Regiment here?

"How far is it from Yushe County?" On the top of the mountain, Li Yunlong put down his telescope and asked Wei Dayong.

"About twenty-five miles." Wei Dayong said, "The cavalry can arrive in about half an hour."

"Half an hour..." Li Yunlong's eyes gradually became dark.
