Chapter 360: Gundam decides to lead his troops north
In the courtyard of Lijiazhuang Command Headquarters.
After intense discussions and consultations, the senior cadres of the Independent Column finally made an important decision.
"Comrades, we have decided to send the 388th Brigade, the New 9st Brigade, and the Ping'an Brigade, totaling more than people, to the north to establish a new column base in the area from Chifeng to Pingquan in Rehe Province."
"This is a difficult task, but I am confident our troops are up to the task."
"The 389th Brigade and the Independent Brigade will stay in Shanxi to defend the base and conduct large-scale military training."
"Before the main army set out, the special operations group led by Wei Dayong set out first to conduct reconnaissance in the Rehe area to understand the enemy's defense deployment, and to contact the anti-Japanese forces in the Chifeng area, select the location of the base and carry out preliminary construction."
After everyone had arranged the actions of each unit, they began to discuss the next important topic - who should lead the troops to Rehe Province to establish a new base.
"I think this task requires someone with both experience and leadership."
"Yes, we need a commander who can make quick decisions in complex environments."
Finally, Gao Da stood up and said, "Everyone, I have decided to lead the troops to Rehe Province to establish a new column base this time."
Everyone present turned their eyes to Gundam.
"Commander, what will happen to the independent column if you leave?" Li Dakang broke the silence first.
Qi Tongwei also chimed in: "Yes, the independent column base in Shanxi still needs a commander."
Gaoda looked around at everyone and said, "Everyone, can the Independent Column not develop without me? I don't usually manage the affairs of the Independent Column, but you guys are doing well."
He paused and continued, “Also, communications are so advanced nowadays, if you have any questions you can contact me directly by radio.
Even if there is an emergency, it is not far to return. The armed helicopters manufactured by the arsenal are about to roll off the production line. It only takes three or four hours to fly back from Rehe Province. "
After hearing Gundam's words, everyone knew that Gundam had to go.
Gao Da continued, "Everyone, it is a big deal for the independent column to go to Rehe Province to establish a new base. It must be completed well and nothing can go wrong. The central government's instructions are very clear."
"Okay, everyone, stop talking. This matter is settled. Also, Chief of Staff, you will go north with me."
"Yes, Commander." Sha Ruijin stood up quickly.
After the meeting, everyone left the command center one after another.
Gaoda and Sha Ruijin sat opposite each other in the yard.
"Lao Sha, the first independent column to Rehe will definitely encounter a strong counterattack from the Kwantung Army. We must carry enough supplies. This is a difficult battle. As the chief of staff, you must give me more advice."
Sha Ruijin nodded: "Don't worry, Commander, the staff and I will make several plans in advance. We will take into account all possible situations and ensure that our actions are foolproof."
Gaoda lit a cigarette, the smoke swirled in front of him. He pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "Lao Sha, there is one more thing I want to discuss with you.
I plan to take a military and industrial team with me to the new base, where we will build a new arsenal to supply weapons and ammunition to the troops."
Sha Ruijin was slightly stunned: "Commander, your idea is very good, I agree. In the future, as the base is established, our weapons and ammunition must be self-sufficient. It is a waste of time to transport them from Shanxi."
Gundam nodded with satisfaction. "Yes, we can't always rely on supplies from the rear. We must have our own production capabilities. In this way, no matter how the war situation changes, we can maintain our combat effectiveness."
In the following period of time, Gaoda and Sha Ruijin had a round of discussion on some personnel arrangements for the new base.
They discussed which cadres were suitable for important positions in the new base, which personnel needed more training, and how to recruit and train new military talents locally.
........
Wild Wolf Mountain Special Operations Regiment Camp.
There was a scene of intense training in the camp.
After a long period of development, the special forces battalion of the independent column was officially promoted to a special operations regiment, becoming a sharp knife in the independent column.
The entire regiment has more than 3000 people, all of whom are top-level soldiers in independent columns. They undergo the most rigorous training here, preparing for battles that may come at any time.
The monk stood on the jeep and said, "Everyone hurry up and run. There are still 5 kilometers to go. The last one to run will not get any food. Hurry, hurry, hurry!"
Behind the jeep, the soldiers of the special operations regiment were desperately chasing, their footsteps making a heavy rhythm on the muddy ground. Everyone gritted their teeth and persevered, no one wanted to fall behind others.
We are all soldiers at the king level.
The monk stood on the car, glanced at every running soldier, raised his hand to look at the watch in his hand, and then nodded with great satisfaction.
After months of intense physical training, everyone in the special operations regiment has made rapid progress. It is no exaggeration to say that any soldier from the special operations regiment can fight against more than 10 ordinary soldiers alone.
"Hurry up, you bunch of lazy people, don't let me look down on you!" The monk's voice sounded again.
"Captain, don't underestimate us. We are the elite of the special operations group!"
On the battlefield, the special operations regiment repeatedly made outstanding achievements, making the Japanese terrified, and was very good at surprise attacks, ambushes and assassinations behind enemy lines.
"Good, you have great ambition!" The monk praised loudly, "Then let us see your strength, don't just talk without practice!"
When the soldiers heard the challenge from their commander, they quickened their pace.
After the physical training.
"Comrades, you are all great. Next, let's go eat!"
"Yes, Captain!" everyone responded in unison.
Then, the soldiers ran towards the canteen desperately like a tide.
The monk looked at the soldiers' backs, smiled, shook his head, and turned to walk towards the command center.
As soon as I sat down in the headquarters, the deputy commander came in hurriedly: "Commander, the commander wants to see you urgently. He wants you to go to the Lijiazhuang headquarters now."
"Ok!"
The monk stood up immediately and walked out of the command center without any hesitation.
He jumped onto the jeep, the engine roared, dust flew up behind the car, and it sped towards Lijiazhuang.
Not long after, the monk arrived at Lijiazhuang.
After parking the car, he strode into the headquarters yard.
Gundam looked up and saw the monk coming, and immediately called him over.
"Monk, there is a very important mission that needs to be carried out by the Special Operations Group."
"Early tomorrow morning, the special operations group will set out from Datong to the north, passing through the prairie and heading to the Rehe area to investigate the enemy's situation.
We will also contact the local Anti-Japanese Allied Forces and set up a preliminary camp. The independent column will go to Rehe Province to establish a new base." Gao Da explained the content of the mission in detail.
The monk immediately answered loudly: "Yes, Commander! I will complete the task."
Gundam nodded, "Okay, I knew you wouldn't let me down.
Remember, this mission concerns the future of our entire column, so we must be careful and cautious. "
The monk nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, Commander, I will lead the team myself and make sure every step is taken steadily."
After saying this, the monk turned and left the command center.
