Li Yunlong still attached great importance to the arrival of his two absolute confidants, Zhang Dabiao and Xu Wen.

When the two of them arrived outside the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong came out of the room after hearing the news and looked at the two of them with a smile: "Da Biao, Zhu Zhu, I haven't seen you in half a year, do you miss me!"

"I must have thought about it. I want to kill the Japanese with you, Commander!" Zhang Dabiao said with a smile.

"Hahaha!" Li Yunlong said with a happy smile: "From today on, our brothers can kill the Japanese together again!"

"Zhuzi, I heard that your boy took down two Japanese artillery towers with one squad of troops? You are worthy of the soldiers I brought out, and you didn't embarrass me!" Seeing that Xu Wen didn't interrupt, Li Yunlong immediately said to him

road.

"That's right, there are no weak soldiers under a strong general!" Xu Wen flattered him.

Zhang Dabiao said: "Captain, Zhu Zhu is very friendly. Commander Ding Wei and Ding asked him to stay because of his position as company commander, but he didn't even agree!"

"Haha, this bastard, Old Ding, wants to poach our old Li, but there is no way!" Li Yunlong happily hugged Xu Wen's shoulders and said: "Don't worry, Zhuzi, I also want you to be the company commander, I will never do it!"

I’ve treated you badly!”

"Thank you very much, leader! I will definitely do a good job!" Li Yunlong said so, and Xu Wen was also very happy.

In this way, Xu Wen officially joined the Independent Regiment, and within a few days, he was appointed as the platoon leader of the artillery platoon directly under the Independent Regiment.

It's not that Li Yunlong deceived Xu Wen, but that although the current independent regiment is a main regiment, it does not have abundant weapons and equipment, especially artillery equipment, which is still in short supply.

Being able to form an artillery platoon is already the limit.

However, for Xu Wen, it doesn't matter whether he is a company commander or a platoon leader at this stage.

After the Japanese have carried out a large-scale sweep in the future, the independent regiment will be divided into troops. At that time, it will be your own opportunity to recruit troops and show off your skills.

Before that, Xu Wen wanted to stay in the Independent Regiment to make up for some regrets in Liang Jianli.

For example, the monk Wei Dayong was brutally killed by bandits, and the cavalry company commander Sun Desheng was trapped in a tight siege and died fighting.

If possible, Xu Wen would like to try to save Xiu Qin, who was captured by the Yamamoto special agent team and died tragically, and Zhao Jiayu, who was killed by hundreds of innocent people by the Japanese army.

Of course, the most important thing is to have seniority. If you don't have a battalion commander or something, you won't have the charisma to recruit troops in the future.

Thinking of Monk Wei, Xu Wen thought to himself, judging by the time, this guy should have almost escaped from the Japanese prisoner of war camp by now, right?

There is also political commissar Zhao Gang and Zhao, who is probably heading towards the Independence Regiment now.

I have to go and take care of them. It's best to rescue the monk before political commissar Zhao.

In this way, the monk, a guy with great martial arts, can't be grateful to me. It's best to be a guard for me in the future. That would be great, hehe!

Thinking of this, Xu Wen handed over the affairs of the platoon to a veteran, took two soldiers with him, made an excuse, and left Yangcun.

After walking for about twenty or thirty miles, Xu Wen and the others came to a place called Wild Wolf Valley. The three of them were a little tired from walking.

Just as I was about to find a place to rest for a while, intermittent gunshots suddenly came from the valley ahead.

"If there is a situation, prepare to fight!" Xu Wen's expression changed upon hearing this, and he took out his Mauser pistol on the spot. This time, because he wanted to travel lightly, Xu Wen did not bring his mortar.

The other two soldiers also took off the rifles on their backs and held them in their hands. Following Xu Wen, the three of them formed a battle formation and followed the sound towards the valley.

When we crossed a hill and came to a dirt road in the valley, the sound of gunfire was getting closer and closer.

Xu Wen clenched the Mauser pistol in his hand and led the two soldiers close to the valley on the roadside. They continued to move forward and stopped at a corner.

The three men squatted behind the protruding rocks, holding their guns and getting ready to fire.

About a minute later, a young man covered in dirt and stumbling appeared in front of Xu Wen and the others.

"Platoon leader, look, there's someone!" A soldier behind Xu Wen immediately pointed ahead and said.

"I saw it!" Xu Wen looked around and thought to himself, if he guessed correctly, this guy should be Wei Dayong who just escaped from the prisoner of war camp, right?

It’s so great that I met it just in time!

"Get ready to fight!" As soon as Xu Wen finished speaking, the young man in ragged clothes was exhausted and fell down.

"Follow me!" Upon seeing this, Xu Wen immediately rushed out with two soldiers. As soon as they rushed over, they saw about a dozen Japanese and Japanese soldiers chasing after them with guns in hand.

The three men immediately shot and ran to the fallen young man as quickly as possible, picked him up and retreated!

The Japanese and puppet troops were suddenly attacked. They thought they were ambushed and did not dare to continue the pursuit. They fired a few random shots and then turned around and retreated.

Xu Wen and two soldiers took the young man and retreated into a forest.

The young man had regained some strength and looked at Xu Wen and the others with a blank look on his face and asked: "Who are you?"

"We are from the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Who are you and why are you being chased by the Japanese?" Xu Wen was almost certain that the tall and muscular guy in front of him was Monk Wei, but he still needed to confirm.

.

"My name is Wei Dayong. I am from the 27th Division of the Central Army. I just escaped from the Japanese prisoner of war camp!" Wei Dayong said: "Thank you for saving me!"

"You're welcome, we are all anti-Japanese friendly troops. It is not safe here. Let's leave first." Xu Wen suppressed the joy in his heart, and together with the soldiers, he set up Wei Dayong and rushed towards Yangcun.

After walking not far, they met two Eighth Route Army soldiers wearing drab gray military uniforms.

There was almost a misunderstanding between the two parties. When they saw that the military uniforms were the same, one of the leaders, a man with a Chinese character and a face, asked: "Which part are you from?"

Xu Wen saw that there were only two people on the other side. The man in front of him was gentle and elegant, so he thought he had met Zhao Gang, right?

So he said: "Hello, comrade, we are from the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. I am Xu Wen, the artillery platoon leader of the Independent Regiment!"

"It turns out it's my comrade. I am the political commissar of the Independent Regiment appointed by the headquarters. My name is Zhao Gang!" Zhao Gang said with a smile on his face.

"Oh, welcome to Political Commissar Zhao!" Xu Wen saluted hurriedly and thought to himself, Political Commissar Zhao, don't blame me for saving Wei Dayong.

"Who are you?" Zhao Gang asked with some confusion when he saw that among Xu Wen and the others there was Wei Dayong who was wearing a national army uniform.

Xu Wen immediately explained: "We came out to collect intelligence and met this brother on the road. His name is Wei Dayong. He just escaped from the Japanese prisoner-of-war camp. When he was chased by the Japanese, we repelled the Japanese and gave him to him.

Rescued."

Since it was not Zhao Gang who saved Wei Dayong this time, Monk Wei was not as polite to Zhao Gang as before. He just nodded slightly as a response.
Chapter completed!
