Chapter 109: The Tiger Brigade sets its sights on the Sakata Regiment’s flag!
After the 358th Regiment was allowed to pass, Zhou Weimin and the guard battalion quickly arrived near Cangyunling.
At this time, the sound of gunfire on the mountain was clearly audible, and the sound of artillery shells exploding could be heard from time to time.
Zhou Weimin ordered the guard battalion to stop advancing, then took out a telescope and began to observe the top of the mountain.
Although Cangyunling is called a ridge, it is not actually a real ridge. Cangyunling has a peak.
And there are quite a few hills.
The gunshots are currently coming from these hills.
Through the telescope, Zhou Weimin could clearly see that the Japanese soldiers were constantly attacking these hills.
But because it was an attack from above, Li Yunlong had buried a lot of mines on the hillside.
So even though the Japanese had far more people and weapons than Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment, they still had a hard time fighting.
Several times the Japanese attacked halfway up the hillside, but were then beaten back by Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment.
Seeing this, Zhou Weimin also felt admiration for Li Yunlong.
You have to know that Li Yunlong never attended military school and had no education. He used to be a bamboo craftsman, or in other words, a frame weaver.
But this guy not only has excellent command ability, but also has a keen sense of the battlefield.
This is simply a gifted talent!
"Commander, what do we need to do now?"
Xu Hu came to Zhou Weimin at some point and asked in a low voice.
"Have Zhao Wei's troops completed the encirclement?"
Zhou Weimin did not answer Xu Hu's words, but asked about the situation of Zhao Wei's Second Regiment.
"Commander, Captain Zhao just sent a telegram saying that the Second Regiment has completed the encirclement and is awaiting your orders."
Xu Hu came to Zhou Weimin just after receiving Zhao Wei's telegram.
"Okay, just complete the encirclement." Zhou Weimin paused after speaking, then continued: "The time is not right yet, we don't need to do anything."
"But tell my brothers, no one is allowed to shoot or expose themselves without my order."
Upon hearing this, Xu Hu immediately nodded and replied, "Yes!"
As Xu Hu went down to convey the order, Zhou Weimin began to look for something with a telescope.
In fact, Zhou Weimin was looking for the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment.
This time, Zhou Weimin brought the guard battalion to Cangyunling to launch a surprise attack on the Sakata Regiment's headquarters and the regiment's flag.
Just destroy the Sakata Regiment's headquarters.
Then Zhou Weimin would immediately give the order for Zhao Wei's Second Regiment to start attacking the Sakata Regiment.
The Sakata Regiment no longer has the old devil Nobutsu Sakata.
Zhao Wei’s Second Regiment can wipe out the Sakata Regiment, not to mention that Li Yunlong is standing next to them!
After a few minutes.
Zhou Weimin observed all the hills in Cangyunling and finally found the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment on a hill.
In Zhou Weimin's telescope, behind an inconspicuous hill there was a long pole about six or seven meters long.
It is precisely because of this long pole.
Zhou Weimin confirmed that that was the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment.
Because there is an antenna on this long pole, it is used for communication.
"Xu Hu, Xu Hu, do you see that little hill? That's the headquarters of the Sakata Regiment."
"Immediately direct the artillery of the guard battalion to aim all their guns at that hill."
"I've observed that the distance is about 700 meters, which is definitely within our reach."
"Tell the artillery to fire three salvos. I want to flatten that hill."
"Five minutes after ordering Zhao Wei's Second Regiment to attack the Sakata Regiment."
"Tell the brothers in the guard battalion, when the artillery fires, follow me."
Zhou Weimin spoke with a smile, as if he had already obtained the Sakata Regiment's flag.
"Commander, why are you charging? I'll lead the guard battalion to charge later, and you just command from here."
Xu Hu said quickly after hearing this.
Zhou Weimin is now the brigade commander, how could he still lead the team to charge!
"Monk, you must keep an eye on the host. Don't let him..."
Xu Hu was about to tell the monk something, but before he could finish his words, Zhou Weimin yelled, "Get out! Get out of here!"
"Why do you think I'm charging? I want to capture the Sakata Regiment's headquarters as soon as possible."
"Is there something I want in there?"
Xu Hu was slightly stunned when he heard this, then he immediately said, "Captain, what do you want? I'll go get it back for you."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Weimin cursed in a low voice: "Get lost! Do I want you to go get it?"
"I've got my eyes on the Sakata Regiment's flag."
Xu Hu, the monk, felt his breathing quicken when he heard this.
What is the regimental flag, Xu Hu, the monk knows very well.
It is precisely because they know what the Japanese regiment flag is that Xu Hu and the monk behaved like this.
Xu Hu and the monk also knew the importance of the regiment flag to the Japanese army.
It is said that each regimental flag has the personal signature of Emperor Goku and is issued by Emperor Goku himself.
Xu Hu, the monk also heard that the Japanese army has a clear rule that as long as the regiment flag is there, the regiment is there; if the regiment flag is lost, the regiment's organization will be disbanded.
So for the Japanese, the company flag is more important than their lives.
I also heard that the Japanese regiment flag has a special flag guard team.
"Commander, if our Tiger Brigade can capture a Japanese regimental flag, wouldn't our Tiger Brigade become famous throughout the country?"
Xu Hu looked at Zhou Weimin excitedly and said.
"Why would I charge in person? Alright, hurry up and pass on the order."
Zhou Weimin looked at Xu Hu, the monk, whose face was full of excitement, and said in a low voice.
"Yes, Brigade Commander." Xu Hu nodded heavily, then turned to look at the monk and continued, "Monk, you must protect me."
Upon hearing this, the monk patted his chest and whispered, "Don't worry, Captain. I will definitely die in front of the brigade commander."
Upon hearing this, Xu Hu nodded heavily to the monk.
Zhou Weimin looked at Xu Hu and the monk with a dark face. How much they looked down on him!
You should know that Zhou Weimin has undergone systematic transformation and his physical fitness is not inferior to anyone else.
Zhou Weimin can beat several monks like him.
Of course, Xu Hu and the monk didn't know about this.
Because Zhou Weimin has never shown his skills, of course Zhou Weimin has no chance to show his skills.
Being protected by a guard battalion all day long, Zhou Weimin had no chance to show his skills!
"Hurry up and pass on the order." Zhou Weimin said to Xu Hu, and then continued to say to the monk: "You will follow me in a while."
Upon hearing this, the monk immediately said, "Master, don't worry, I will protect you."
It was obvious that the monk misunderstood what Zhou Weimin meant.
"What are you thinking? I need your protection. I'm going to compete with you to see who kills more devils."
After hearing this, Zhou Weimin was stunned for a moment, and then he started cursing at the monk.
The monk didn't say anything when he heard this, but just laughed. Anyway, he must follow Zhou Weimin later.
