Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

Seeing Ding Wei pedaling the bicycle skillfully and swiftly, the comrades applauded.

The commander personally demonstrated and instructed, and anyone could learn it after falling a few times.

It is similar to an old-fashioned bicycle with a 28-inch bar. Its outstanding feature is its durability. As long as the road surface is relatively flat, it is not that difficult to pedal.

The supplies a single soldier can carry are limited, and at worst they can push the goods. A bicycle can also carry hundreds of kilograms of cargo.

It’s a pity that I don’t have a mobile phone, so I can’t show them the racing god Fan De Biao.

That guy can just pedal away with a 200-pound banana and even drift on the road.

"Practice more. This thing needs more practice."

After instructing the new recruits, Ding Wei saw the signalman coming to report on his work, so he patted the dirt off his hands and returned to the command center.

At this moment, Heiyun Village has been transformed into a temporary defensive stronghold. The gate has been removed and used to build a log air defense system.

Ding Wei’s command center is right at the innermost part.

In an inconspicuous place on the top of the mountain, there is a simple antenna used to receive radio messages.

"Report to the commander, the regiments have occupied the county town as planned, and the political commissar has arranged for the organization to contact the local people."

"Great! Quickly clean up the countryside and exterminate the traitors. These scums have relied on the support of the devils to cause trouble in the area. We, the Eighth Route Army, are here and we must clear the exploiters above the people."

"Notify the political commissar and Da Biao to do a good job of reconnaissance and surveillance, keep an eye on the main forces of the Japanese invaders outside, and also keep a close eye on the Japanese and puppet troops in the county. Try to persuade the puppet troops to defect and provide us with information."

Ding Wei frowned. His New Fourth and New Fifth Regiments did not have a suitable commander yet.

Kong Yong, Wang Tao and Sun Desheng can all be considered. Kong Yong leads the reconnaissance battalion and his position is more important.

Considering Wang Tao as the acting commander of the New Fifth Regiment, the New Fifth Regiment is a small regiment with less than a thousand people. Taozi has experience as a battalion commander and can lead the new regiment.

Sun Desheng was recommended as the commander of the New Fourth Regiment. His combat capability was fine, and he had been trained by Ding Wei for a period of time and was able to control his temper.

While fighting bravely, he also learned that one cannot rely solely on brute force. With his abilities, it would be most appropriate for him to lead the New Fourth Regiment.

The cavalry battalion was incorporated into the New Fourth Regiment, and the headquarters was responsible for its dispatch.

We still need to cultivate and absorb available talents. As the troops expand, more commanders and fighters will be needed in the future.

The Japanese surrounded the mountainous area but did not attack, and held out in the county town, hoping to use a blockade to wear down Ding Wei.

This idea is a bit ridiculous. People who are born in an island country cannot understand the vastness of China.

Yamamoto Ikki and Shinozuka Yoshio couldn't understand why Ding Wei had so many combat supplies, bullets and artillery shells. They could be taken out even if the siege lasted for several years, let alone a few months.

What's more, he not only has three regiments, but two more are active.

Needless to say, Gao Qing's New 1st Regiment is the elite of the Fourth Military Division and also a prosperous unit with strong combat effectiveness and tough style.

Seeing that the Japanese invaders were concentrating their forces in the western mountainous areas, they immediately understood what was going on and moved out of the mountains to attack the plains of the Xinding Basin.

Destroy artillery towers and highway bridges and give the Japanese and puppet troops a beating.

After the New Second Regiment had recovered, it rapidly expanded its forces under the leadership of Kong Jie, and advanced toward the vicinity of Fuping to confront the traitorous puppet troops there.

The New Second Regiment was injured and could not fight the Japanese head-on for the time being, but it could still deal with the traitors, puppet soldiers and bandits.

As for the independent regiment near Zhoushan, Li Yunlong's character would cause trouble even for no reason. Seeing that the enemy's forces were weak, he wanted to attack the county town.

He personally took the lead in raiding strongholds, killing puppet troops, seizing equipment and supplies, and arming the troops.

In half a month, 36 artillery towers were taken down and 7 strongholds were captured.

The artillery towers and trenches that the Japanese had painstakingly built were completely destroyed.

Yoshio Shinozuka found Ikki Yamamoto, and this was the colonel's idea to besiege Ding Wei's Fourth Military Division and use delaying tactics to consume its supplies.

The effect was achieved. The Yunzhong Mountain area was very quiet and Ding Wei was concentrating on his development.

Clear up the countryside, suppress bandits and eradicate traitors, and strengthen internal learning and training.

The key areas in the Wutai Mountain area and Xizhou Mountain area are unstable, and three groups of the Eighth Route Army are active.

Troops must also be deployed to clear out and mop up the swarms.

Where would the troops be drawn from? A small Fourth Military Sub-district, was it going to require more than a dozen battalions of troops to hold out in a stalemate in the mountain valley?

"Mr. Yamamoto, it's time for your special forces to be put to use. I have blocked Ding Wei's headquarters in the mountains. Find it, kill it, and get rid of it!"

"Haiyi, General, don't worry. I am fully prepared this time and will definitely take down Ding Wei's head."

The car started from Taiyuan and headed north.

Yamamoto Ikki personally led the special forces team and prepared to approach the Yunzhong Mountain area to raid Ding Wei's headquarters.

In the car, Colonel Yamamoto was searching on the map. Due to intelligence problems, he did not get the exact location of the headquarters, and could only roughly guess where it was in some mountainous area.

Reconnaissance planes circled overhead and informed the marching Yamamoto task force of several suspicious locations via radio.

These locations need to be verified by Colonel Yamamoto himself.

The special forces soldiers leaned against the car, shaken until they were drowsy. When they arrived at the get-off point, they all jumped out of the car nimbly.

They are lined up in neat rows, all wearing the same special warfare uniforms, looking very cool.

You are a member of the special forces team, but you are dressed so flashily. Aren't you afraid that you will be discovered as soon as you enter the base?

Yamamoto Ikki is a typical example of a person with lofty ambitions but a fragile life. He was obsessed with innovating army tactics and looked down on this and that.

He is also an expert in mountain warfare who studied in Germany.

I studied for a long time, but I didn't learn anything about penetration.

All the extra points are added to show off.

Intelligence is more important than anything else these days. After Ding Wei expanded his base, the first thing he did was to clear the countryside, eliminate bandits and eliminate traitors. He had to lay a good foundation among the masses first.

The masses are like countless pairs of eyes. Any suspicious person entering the base must first pass the masses' vision.

Then screened by the militia.

If there is anything suspicious, I will report it immediately to my online supervisor.

Every village and town has different organizations and personnel responsible for intelligence information.

Unless Yamamoto Ikki could sneak into Ding Wei's command post smoothly without encountering any living people, he would most likely be identified by scouts, secret sentries, the masses, and militia as soon as he entered the mountains.

Before entering the mountains, Colonel Yamamoto gave his usual pre-mission speech.

From a strategic point of view, this guy has something, and his strategic vision is very accurate. He has an extremely deep understanding of the situation of the War of Resistance. As he said, even if the railways and cities are occupied, the Chinese army will continue to fight in mountainous areas and remote areas.

The land area of ​​the Huaxia war zone gives it enough strategic depth. The island nation's limited manpower and resources cannot withstand years of war.

Look, isn't this a very thorough understanding? It is also highly valued by Yoshio Shinozuka.

He is more suitable to sit in the General Staff or the Operations Department as a senior staff officer and formulate major strategic policies, rather than using his limited experience to lead a special forces team to the mountains to die.

Mr. Yamamoto, who has been educated abroad, has always been arrogant and looked down upon by his colleagues.

This time, he wanted to let several brigade commanders see what real special operations were.

It is necessary to use a small force to solve the problems that three independent brigades + three infantry regiments cannot solve.
