Chapter 135 "It's over. The political commissar is gone."
Yangcun is the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment.
Li Yunlong returned to the headquarters from the recruit training ground. He sat down and took a sip of the water on the table.
Suddenly, he remembered why the political commissar hadn't arrived yet?
He took out his pocket watch and saw that the time was almost 12:00.
Li Yunlong shouted loudly to the outside of the door: "Huzi, come in for a moment."
Guard Hu Zi ran in.
"Captain, what do you want from me?"
"Huzi, when I was not at the headquarters just now, did anyone come to the headquarters?"
Hu Zi shook his head.
"Captain, no one came to the command center just now."
When Li Yunlong heard this, he shouted in his heart.
"No, something happened."
The new political commissar sent by the headquarters must have encountered an accident on the way, otherwise he should not have arrived by now.
It only takes two or three hours to get from the headquarters to Yangcun, but now almost five hours have passed.
Li Yunlong's face changed, and he quickly ordered: "Huzi, immediately notify the first battalion commander Zhang Dabiao to come to the command center."
"Yes, Captain."
Hu Zi quickly ran out of the command center.
Li Yunlong was in the command center, pacing back and forth anxiously.
Please don't let anything happen.
Don't let anything happen.
Otherwise, how can I explain this to the head of the headquarters?
It didn't take long.
Zhang Dabiao came to the command center.
Li Yunlong said hurriedly when he saw Zhang Dabiao coming.
"Zhang Dabiao, you must lead your battalion to find a new political commissar right now."
"Captain, what happened?"
"Zhang Dabiao, the headquarters has sent a new political commissar. He should have arrived earlier, but he hasn't arrived yet. I'm worried that something might happen to him on the way." Li Yunlong explained.
After hearing this, Zhang Dabiao realized the seriousness of the matter.
"Yes, Commander, I will lead the group and set off immediately. I will definitely find the political commissar."
"Go quickly, go quickly."
Zhang Dabiao quickly turned around and left the command center.
After running back to the barracks, he immediately summoned the soldiers of the first battalion to set out to look for Zhao Gang.
at the same time.
After Zhao Gang finished his meal at the county brigade, Gaoda sent a cavalry squad to escort Zhao Gang to the independent regiment.
Shortly after Zhao Gang left.
The monk came to the headquarters.
"Captain, we haven't had a chance to attack the Japanese special forces for so many days. They have been staying in the city."
After hearing what the monk said, Gundam pondered for a moment.
"Monk, since the Japanese special forces are not coming out of the city, let's lure them out."
Gundam had given a guarantee to the brigade commander that if the Japanese special forces could not be eliminated as soon as possible, they might start a new round of operations.
The two began to discuss in the command center how to lure out the Japanese special forces.
..............
The soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment, led by Zhang Dabiao, began to search for Zhao Gang along the mountain road.
Hundreds of people searched in the mountains for more than half an hour but didn't see anyone.
At this time, a soldier said to Zhang Dabiao.
"Captain, could the new political commissar be lost? We have searched the area thoroughly and found no one."
After hearing this, Zhang Dabiao seemed to be thinking about something.
Then he shouted to the soldiers of the first battalion.
"Comrades, the new political commissar may have lost his way. Let's look for him in other directions."
The soldiers of the first battalion began to look for Zhao Gang in other directions.
As the search area expanded, the soldiers had almost covered all the nearby mountains.
Two soldiers from the first battalion came to an unnamed mountain road.
Suddenly, a soldier shouted.
"Look, is there a person lying on the ground in front of you?"
Another soldier looked carefully and found that the person lying on the ground was indeed a person.
"Let's go take a look."
The two of them ran forward quickly.
As the distance gets closer.
The two men clearly saw that the person lying on the ground was an Eighth Route Army soldier.
"No, it's our comrade."
The two men rushed up quickly and helped the Eighth Route Army soldier on the ground up.
At this time, the Eighth Route Army soldier had stopped breathing.
Afterwards, the two found three other sacrificed Eighth Route Army soldiers not far away.
"Let's go back and report to the battalion commander. The four fallen soldiers were all guards from the headquarters."
The two of them quickly ran towards the main force.
It didn't take long.
The two found Zhang Dabiao.
"Report to the battalion commander. We found four dead Eighth Route Army soldiers on an unknown mountain road ahead. They were guards of the headquarters."
Zhang Dabiao was shocked when he heard this.
"Take me to the scene quickly."
The two soldiers brought Zhang Dabiao to the nameless mountain road.
When Zhang Dabiao saw the four headquarters guards who had died, his heart sank to the bottom.
These guards died here. They must have been escorting someone.
In his opinion, the person escorted by the four guards was most likely the political commissar of their independent regiment.
There were only four bodies of Eighth Route Army soldiers at the scene, and no other Eighth Route Army soldiers were found.
The political commissar had most likely escaped his pursuers.
Zhang Dabiao immediately gave the order: "Everyone in the first battalion, pay attention. Search carefully in this direction, don't miss any corner..."
After saying that, Zhang Dabiao quickly rode his horse back to the independent regiment. He wanted to report the news to Li Yunlong as soon as possible.
Soon.
Zhang Dabiao rode his horse back to the Yangcun Command Center.
As soon as he got off the horse, he rushed into the command center in a panic.
"Zhang Dabiao, have you found the political commissar?"
"Report to the head of the group, we haven't found the political commissar yet."
Zhang Dabiao continued, "But Commander, we found four dead headquarters guards on a mountain road."
Li Yunlong heard it.
"It's over, it's over. I really got it right."
"Something happened to the political commissar..."
Li Yunlong quickly ordered: "Zhang Dabiao, keep looking for him. I want him alive or dead."
"Yes, Captain."
The time came to 3 o'clock in the afternoon.
Zhang Dabiao led a battalion of soldiers to search for Zhao Gang all over the mountains.
At this time, Zhao Gang arrived in Yangcun under the escort of the county brigade's cavalry team.
"Captain Zhao, the Yangcun Independent Regiment's base is ahead. Our escort mission is complete, and now we need to return to the team quickly."
"Okay, thank you comrades for your escort along the way. Be safe on the way back."
"Yes, Chief."
The cavalry squad turned around and began to return to the county brigade.
Zhao Gang rode his horse to the entrance of the village and identified himself to the sentry on duty.
The sentry led Zhao Gang towards the command center.
After arriving at the independent regiment headquarters, Zhao Gang strode into the headquarters.
"Reporting to Commander Li Yunlong, the Political Commissar of the Independent Regiment, Zhao Gang, is here to report."
Li Yunlong in the command center was startled by Zhao Gang's voice. He turned around and saw Zhao Gang standing at the door.
"Oh, my great political commissar, you are finally here. I thought something happened to you, I was so worried."
