Bright Sword: Rebirth of Kong Jie

In the end, the independent regiment wiped out the Namwon Battalion.

It can be said that he became famous in one battle.

Although no one outside knew how the independent regiment fought this battle.

But it is a fact that the Japanese Army's Namwon Battalion was destroyed.

The independent regiment base, which had just been established, was like a tiger waiting to devour its prey, making the surrounding Japanese and puppet troops extremely fearful of it.

After the Japanese troops retreated, Kong Jie seized the opportunity to launch further development movements within the regiment.

The first thing to do is to settle the 8000 extra people in the base.

With the momentum of destroying the Japanese Namwon Battalion, Kong Jie ordered his troops to launch several attacks on the outer lines of the base. With the two infantry guns at hand, he easily knocked out several strongholds blocked by the Japanese army along the way.

The base was further expanded by dozens of square kilometers.

Then, we built solid defensive fortifications on the outer line of the base, and relied on the defense line to settle the people in the villages in the outer defense zone.

After the people settled down, they quickly started production, reclaimed wasteland and resumed farming with the help of the instructors sent by Kong Jie.

The entire base area soon began to flourish and become a place where everything was waiting to be rebuilt.

This happened in less than a week.

With the active response and support of the people, the strength of the independent regiment has further increased from more than 1500 people to more than 2000 people.

In addition to the equipment and ammunition accumulated in the regiment, including the large number of guns and ammunition seized from the destruction of the Nanyuan Battalion, as well as the guns and cannons made by Kong Jie in the repair shop.

The independent regiment can be said to be strong in both men and horses.

Soon after, the Shota Campaign smoothly entered the second phase of the offensive.

Originally, according to the combat deployment and plan of the Eighth Route Army's Front Headquarters, it was planned to deploy more than ten to twenty regiments to launch a large-scale raid on the main transportation lines of the Japanese, mainly the Zhengtai Railway Line.

Unexpectedly, after the order was issued, all bases and military sub-districts responded positively.

Comrades from local military units and even militia forces all appeared on the scene.

Eventually, events developed beyond the headquarters' expectations.

More and more combat troops were involved in this raid, either directly or indirectly, either actively or passively, with more and more regiments emerging into the fray.

The number of combat regiments of the Eighth Route Army increased rapidly.

By the end of the month, according to statistics from the Eighth Route Army's Front Headquarters, more than 100 combat regiments had been deployed in the raids by the military sub-districts in the major base areas.

The Shota Campaign thus gained another more domineering name - the Hundred Regiments Campaign!

period.

According to the order from the headquarters, the independent regiment was responsible for attacking major transportation lines in the Shouyang area, mainly the Japanese Zhengtai Railway Line.

Kong Jie carried out this order more thoroughly.

Other combat regiments in other bases avoided the Japanese blockhouses and artillery towers and attacked important nodes of the Japanese army's transportation lines such as railways, bridges, and tunnels, so as to completely paralyze the Japanese army's transportation lines.

In this way, the Japanese army's cage policy of using railways as pillars, roads as chains, and bunkers as locks collapsed.

Kong Jie directly arranged his troops to fight a head-on siege. Relying on the four infantry guns at hand and the siege artillery they made by hand, they turned the strongholds, gun towers and bunkers into graves for burying the devils, and quickly eliminated the Japanese strongholds of all sizes in Shouyang area.

At the same time, all the equipment and supplies stored by the Japanese in the stronghold were seized.

Further expand the area of ​​the independent regiment’s base.

Relying on some strongholds and bunkers snatched from the Japanese, including some roads and railways, they built fortifications in order to construct a solid external defense system for the independent regiment's base.

By the end of the year.

Shouyang area.

The Japanese and puppet troops were so pitiful that they could only hide in some important towns and cities, and withdrew all the troops originally stationed in some remote villages, towns and strongholds on the outer line.

The vast suburbs and mountainous areas occupied by the independent regiment, as well as the total area of ​​some villages and towns that were gradually captured, were even larger than the area of ​​the stable security zone established by the Japanese army in Shouyang.

The soldiers of the independent regiment rely on a solid defense system.

They were even able to compete with the Japanese troops in Shouyang.

To be precise, if Kong Jie had not considered that the attack on Shouyang City would be surrounded by reinforcements from all sides of the Japanese army, he would really want to lead his troops to attack, capture Shouyang in one go, and regain lost territory.

When the new year is approaching.

The Hundred Regiments Campaign was also coming to an end.

Under the large-scale raids launched by the Eighth Route Army soldiers, mainly in the Taihang base, the Japanese army's entire security zone in North China, especially a large number of railway lines and highways in the guerrilla zone close to the Eighth Route Army base, were severely damaged, and the ability to transport supplies to the front battlefield was greatly reduced.

The Japs had been targeting the Eighth Route Army for more than a year.

At this point, it was completely crushed by the Hundred Regiments Campaign launched by the Eighth Route Army.

In this unprecedented large-scale battle, the Eighth Route Army demonstrated a strength that shocked the Japanese army. It dispatched more than 100 main regiments and mobilized more than 40 troops.

How can I allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

The Japanese soldiers suddenly woke up to the fact that these Eighth Route Army troops, which were not even regular armed forces and had been surviving in the cracks of the occupied areas, had grown to such a size without any warning.

The Japanese army had to readjust its combat strategy against the Eighth Route Army.

The focus of operations, which was originally placed on the front battlefield, began to gradually shift to the Eighth Route Army.

And this is exactly what Kong Jie knew, one of the negative effects of the Hundred Regiments Campaign - during the entire battle, the Eighth Route Army exposed too much of its strength, thus arousing the fear of the Japanese army in advance, and also aroused the fear of the Kuomintang government, which regarded the Eighth Route Army as a major threat.

With such internal and external troubles.

In the following two years, the Eighth Route Army faced the most difficult time in the entire history of the War of Resistance.

Of course, that is based on the original historical trajectory.

Kong Jie believes that if a small butterfly like himself flaps its wings, it may be able to bring about special effects.

Damn it, this is just the beginning!

Just when Kong Jie was full of thoughts.

The signalman hurried to the headquarters and reported to Kong Jie: "Report to the commander, there is news from the headquarters that the Japanese Yamazaki Battalion accidentally appeared near Yixiantian and attacked the headquarters arsenal. It has been surrounded by the main forces of all parties in the Lijiapo area.

The headquarters ordered our independent regiment to immediately mobilize troops to the direction of Lijiapo for reinforcement. "

Yamazaki Brigade!!!

The old guy Yamazaki finally showed up, and Kong Jie couldn't help but smile. In the world of Bright Sword, Yamazaki Jihei is a household name - the Bright Sword is ever-changing, but Yamazaki is always there.

How can I be worthy of my identity as a time traveler if I don’t kill that damn Yamazaki Battalion?
