At this time, Tang Yufeng suddenly found that Zhou Cheng had not heard of the secret service camp or the guard battalion in the order given just now, and asked quickly: "Captain, there seems to be no security service camp or the special service camp in your arrangement just now!"

"The guard battalion must undertake the alert tasks of the regiment headquarters. I can understand that if I don't participate in the action!"

"Why are there no spy battalions on the list of participating in the battle?"

"If Chen Liwen of the Special Service Battalion knew about this, he would definitely block the regiment department every day to ask us for battle!"

Zhou Cheng blurted out: "The secret service battalion has more important tasks. They will not participate in the long-distance raid on the Eighth Route Army base!"

Tang Yufeng immediately showed a puzzled expression.

As the deputy commander of the National Salvation Army, if the regiment commander had any action plan, he would definitely not hide it from him.

But now I don’t know any news about this. When I didn’t become the leader, I had a sudden idea and had a sudden idea. I thought of what new plan would not come true.

He asked casually: "What task, is it dangerous?"

Zhou Cheng did not intend to conceal this from Tang Yufeng: "This time we ambushed the Japanese Cavalry Regiment, we seized more than 1,000 war horses, and after replenishing the cavalry troops, and then expanding the cavalry battalion to 500 people, there should be a thousand left."

"Our cavalry unit has almost one thousand people in total. If we form another thousand cavalry, it will not only be unnecessary, but also waste a lot of manpower and material resources. Our family is limited, and it may lead to the national rescue army."

"Because the time and cost of training a cavalry is several times more than training a qualified infantry."

"So I decided not to continue to expand the cavalry troops and equip all the remaining 1,000 war horses that were seized with the secret service battalion."

"When other troops attack and perform missions, the special agent battalion stays in the defense zone to train horse riding, requiring every soldier to ride horses. If any soldier does not learn how to ride horses within the specified time, all of them will be transferred from the special agent battalion when the time comes!"

Tang Yufeng was confused when he heard this.

If all the seized war horses are equipped with the special agent battalion, and they must also learn all the war horses within the specified time, isn’t that the entire secret agent battalion adapted into a cavalry battalion?

But the regiment commander clearly stated that the National Rescue Army does not need so many cavalry, and it does not have the strength to form so many cavalry!

But Isn’t this a contradiction to reorganize the spy battalion into a cavalry unit?

He couldn't understand what Zhou Cheng's purpose was to do this, so he frowned and asked, "Captain, I'm almost confused by you! Equip the special agent camp with war horses and let every soldier in the special agent camp learn to ride a horse. Isn't this still a cavalry?"

"Different!" Zhou Cheng shook his head.

"Learning to ride a horse is only the simplest ability that a cavalry should have. If you want to become a qualified cavalry through training, you must also learn to shoot on the horse's back, assault on the horse's back, and fight on the horse's back... These are the most difficult things to learn.

"If training a cavalry takes six months and learning to ride a horse can be completed in a maximum of one month, the remaining five months will be used to learn other things!"

"My requirements for the special agent camp are very simple: without delaying regular training, within one month, every grain of the special agent camp must learn to ride a horse!"

Tang Yufeng shook his head and continued to ask, "I still don't understand! Since you are not planning to adapt the spy battalion into a cavalry battalion, why do you want them to spend time learning to ride a horse? Isn't that a waste of time?"

Zhou Cheng did not deny Tang Yufeng's analysis: "Under normal circumstances, it is indeed a bit unnecessary to let an infantryman learn to ride a horse."

"But if there is an emergency, an infantry unit that can ride a horse will likely save our lives at a critical moment!"

Seeing that Tang Yufeng was still frowning at himself, Zhou Cheng continued to explain: "In an emergency, it would be good to walk eight kilometers per hour for infantry marching on average, and it would also consume a lot of physical strength during the marching. If you arrive at the battlefield, you cannot participate in the battle in time."

"If our infantry can ride horses, all of them ride horses to reinforce the battlefield, it will definitely be fine to walk 30 kilometers per hour on average, and it doesn't have to consume physical energy. You can participate in the battle when you arrive at the battlefield..."

"More importantly, such troops can be moved hundreds of miles away in one night and become our surprise and trump card to attack the enemy!"

Tang Yufeng finally understood and looked at Zhou Cheng with his eyes lit up and asked, "Captain, you want to build the spy camp into a force that can move quickly!"

"If that's the case, I completely agree to equip the war horses with the secret service camp."

"In the future, all the special agent battalions will learn to ride horses and let them station near the regiment headquarters. No matter where the defense area is attacked or what accidents occur, they can rely on the war horses to reinforce the scene within two hours."

"If we don't have such a force, we only rely on infantry reinforcements after an accident in the defense zone. If the place is too far away, I guess the infantry will not be able to rush over for seven or eight hours."

"Time is life on the battlefield. If the reinforcements pass one minute earlier, our losses will be less. So the existence of such a force is to buy time for us to fight the Japanese!"

Zhou Cheng didn't expect Tang Yufeng to be convinced so quickly, and immediately ordered: "Then this matter is settled!"

"After replenishing the cavalry troops, all the remaining war horses seized were equipped with the special agent battalion!"

"The secret service battalion now has only more than 800 people. As the first rapid response unit of our National Salvation Army, the troops are still a little less!"

"Without affecting the speed of the troops' mobility and bringing all heavy weapons to the marching, the troops should be able to continue to expand to 900 people. Old Tang, you and the Chief of Staff will decide."

"In one month, I will see that our country-savior rapid response battalion is officially established!"

At the division command, everyone was immersed in the joy of the troops having just won the battle.

Because it is far away from the battlefield, the battlefield range is very large, and there are many troops participating in the battle, it takes a long time to clean the battlefield and count the results. It was not until the next night that the final battle report of the ambushing the Hamano wing appeared in the hands of the Chief of Staff!

"Teacher Commander, Political Commissar, the result of this battle was beyond our expectations!" After reading the telegram, the Chief of Staff handed it to the division commander and introduced it, his mouth was so happy that he could hardly close it.

"Our initial plan was to severely damage the Japanese Hamano wing through ambush and kill half of the cavalry wing!"

"Because the National Salvation Army eliminated the Yingteng United in advance, we had one more main regiment and two independent battalions to participate in the ambush battle, not only successfully completing the planned combat targets, but also killed more than 400 more cavalry!"

"The battle report said that the Japanese Hamano corps had less than 350 cavalrymen who escaped from our siege and blocked us and fled back."

"In order to avoid the Hamaye United team following the footsteps of Yingteng United, the remnants of the Hamaye United team, who escaped by luck, have been protected by Shanxi garrison and will no longer participate in the next battle!"

"So after this battle, the cavalry threat we faced was gone!"

The commander's face was also full of joy: "Not only did the battle be remarkable, but the capture was beyond our imagination."

"The Hamaye Wing brought more than 2,000 war horses. In addition to the more than 300 escaped and more than 400 killed on the battlefield, the remaining more than 1,400 were seized by us. Even nearly 1,000 horse rifles were seized, eight mortars, nine heavy machine guns, and a large number of artillery shells and bullets that the Japanese had not had time to use!"

"The leaders of the main teams who participated in the war have already set their sights on these captures and want to go back more!"

"Political Commissar, you have always been in charge of the logistics of the base area. All these seizures will definitely belong to you. You can divide them as much as you say."

The political commissar was not polite, and while reading the data in the battle report, he replied: "Each main regiment participating in the battle was divided into a cavalry company's war horses and equipment ammunition, and another was divided into a heavy machine gun, a mortar, and a base ammunition!"

"Each independent battalion participating in the war is divided into two light machine guns, two grenade launchers, and supporting ammunition, heavy weapons and war horses."

"The remaining weapons, ammunition and war horses are sent to the division headquarters, and the division will be given to the more needed troops in the base area!"

The division commander did not object and nodded on the spot: "I agree, send a telegram to the front enemy command now!"

The Chief of Staff returned to the war room ten minutes later, and brought another good news!

"The division commander, political commissar, and the national rescue army Zhou Cheng sent a secret message, saying that he wanted to send troops to attack our base for a long distance and attack the large and medium-sized strongholds built by the Japanese and puppet troops in our base."

"I heard that they conquered eight Japanese and puppet troops on their way back to the defense zone last night, and gained a lot. I guess Comrade Zhou Cheng would use this opportunity to expand the effect, not only to seize spoils, but also to take the opportunity to consume the Japanese and puppet troops, so that the Japanese and puppet troops would attack them later."

The Chief of Staff was very powerful. He only looked at Zhou Cheng's telegram to ask for battle and touched Zhou Cheng's thoughts.

The division commander looked at ten lines at a glance, and finished reading the telegram in a few seconds. He asked the Chief of Staff: "If we agree to the National Salvation Army rushing to our base for a long distance, will the impact of this action have on us be good or bad!"

"Of course it's good!" the chief of staff blurted out.

"Most of our main forces gather along the railway and major transportation routes, but there are still a few main forces monitoring the Japanese and puppet troops in the base to prevent the Japanese and puppet troops from taking the opportunity to enter the base and make trouble."

"If the National Salvation Army helps us seize these strongholds, we will be able to free up many troops to reinforce the railway and major transportation routes, and regain the advantage of force on local battlefields!"

The division commander nodded immediately: "Since this matter is beneficial to both of us, we certainly have no reason to refuse. You call Zhou Cheng immediately: The division headquarters agrees with his action plan. After the attacking troops enter the base, there will be local left-behind troops to cooperate with their actions."

When the National Salvation Army pacifying the garrison command center, Tan Fei excitedly punched the table as soon as he put down the phone from the regiment headquarters, and shouted excitedly: "That's great, we finally have the chance to go out and eat meat!"

"Chief of Staff, you immediately notify the three main battalion commanders, artillery company commander, baggage company commander, guard company commander, reconnaissance platoon leader, engineer platoon leader, and rush to the command center for a meeting within two hours!"

"Deputy Captain, please find a map of Yuanshi County and bring all the information about the Japanese and puppet troops in our hands in Yuanshi County!"

The deputy captain and chief of staff did not ask why. Although the captain had not explained to them, it can be seen from the expression on his face and the orders just now that the next major operation of the pacification garrison must be related to Yuanshi County.

The troops came down very quickly. In less than an hour and a half, everyone gathered in the conference room of the command center.

At this time, the map of Yuanshi County found by the deputy captain had been spread on the table in front of everyone, and the captain Tan Fei lay on it to mark it.

As soon as the content on the last piece of information was marked, I put down my pencil. I looked at everyone happily and said, "Comrades, the regiment headquarters just issued an order to temporarily form a reinforcement battalion, hiking day and night, and raiding 90 kilometers a long distance into the Eighth Route Army Base in Yuanshi County to fight the Japanese!"

"There is only one independent battalion of the Eighth Route Army in Yuanshi County. They are poorly equipped and have almost no heavy weapons. In order to trap the Eighth Route Army in their own base, the Japanese and puppet troops built a large number of strongholds in Yuanshi County."

"Our mission is to raid the Eighth Route Army base for a long distance, and with the cooperation of the local Eighth Route Army, we will conquer the Japanese and puppet army strongholds at the minimum cost."

"The attack time of each mobile force is five days. In these five days, you can take a few strongholds, but you must return to the defense zone immediately as soon as the time comes."

"I have already thought about it: every time the troops attack, they draw a main battalion, a cavalry platoon, a mortar platoon, a mountain cannon, a baggage company, a reconnaissance squad, and an engineer squad, a total of 700 people!"

"I personally led the team for the first operation, and the subsequent operations were either led by the Chief of Staff or the Deputy Captain!"

"Now I will announce the list of troops participating in the first attack mission!"

"All troops participating in the operation must arrive at Shanding Village before 7 pm tomorrow. From there, we will leave the defense zone and head straight to the Eighth Route Army base in the Yuan family!"

The troops who received the attack mission were very excited. The soldiers were soaked in joy like they were injected with chicken blood.

Even if it is not my turn to take the first action, the second or third action will definitely be my turn.

The secret service camp station was dead.

The deputy battalion commander frowned and walked into the battalion headquarters: "Battery Commander, I have found out clearly. The four garrisons, three main battalions, and cavalry battalions all received orders to raid the Eighth Route Army base for a long distance."

"We and the Guard Battalion did not receive any orders for attack among all combat troops."

"The guard battalion needs to stay and protect the regiment headquarters. I can understand that I have not received the attack order, but why did our spy battalion not receive the attack order? Could it be that the regiment does not believe in the combat effectiveness of our spy battalion, or has opinions about our spy battalion!"

Battalion Commander Shen Liwen did not respond with a calm face, but he had already recognized the deputy battalion commander's analysis in his heart, and felt that the regiment had an objection to him.

Because among the main battalion commanders of the National Salvation Army and the garrison team leader, he was the only one who came from the Jinsui Army.

Although I have long regarded myself as a member of the National Salvation Army and have almost forgotten my original identity as the Jinsui Army. But outsiders are outsiders. If something good happens, the regiment will definitely give priority to their own people.

The more Shen Liwen thought about it, the more frustrated he felt that he was being excluded, and he was also being excluded with more than 800 soldiers from the secret service camp.

He decided to go to the regiment headquarters in person and ask the regiment leader to explain the matter clearly.

If he still cannot win the trust of the regiment commander, he would rather not be the battalion commander than continue to implicate more than 800 soldiers of the spy battalion, following him without any war!

"Report to the battalion commander, the regiment commander and the chief of staff are here!" The voice of the guard platoon leader suddenly sounded at the entrance of the battalion department.

Chen Liwen was stunned for a moment, not knowing what the purpose of the regiment commander and chief of staff suddenly came to the secret service camp.

He decided to first find out whether the regiment was excluding him, otherwise why the secret service camp was treated differently by the regiment and did not receive the order to attack!

When I saw the regiment commander and the chief of staff, I asked clearly!
Chapter completed!
