The Nanyu Town Guerrilla Brigade is active along the Zhengtai Railway, and usually relies on intercepting troops to develop troops.

It was easy at the beginning. After winning several battles, they got more than 100 guns for the troops at once. However, as the Japanese attached more and more importance to the Zhengtai Railway and formed the railway garrison, they faced a sharp turn of things. Every time they intercepted the army, they had to face the crazy pursuit of the Japanese Railway garrison.

In more than a month, the guerrilla brigade had almost never won a decent battle, and many casualties were killed and dozens of guns were lost.

More importantly, in the face of the pursuit and sweep of the railway garrison, the troops' ammunition that was not much was already used.

The captain Chen Zhong asked the instructor to count yesterday: the guerrilla brigade's only 105 rifles left in each gun, and the only Czech-made one was only 240 bullets left, and the average grenade was not divided into one person.

Chen Zhong was an old Red Army soldier. After experiencing the Long March, the conditions at that time were even harder than they are now, but everyone still survived.

So he believed that the guerrillas would definitely break the deadlock.

"Captain, our top priority now is to get guns and ammunition. Almost 60% of the soldiers still hold earth guns and big swords. Some soldiers don't even have a big sword, and they train with a wooden stick every day. If they really encounter the Japanese Railway Guard, such troops will not even have a mobile phone and will be massacred directly..." The instructor stared at Chen Zhong and reminded.

Chen Zhong did not deny: "Of course I know the importance of gunfire."

"But the Japanese railway garrison was too strict. They built artillery towers on the railway line wherever they could intercept military lines. If they wanted to get weapons and ammunition on the railway, they had to find a way to knock down one of the artillery towers."

"But we only have these weapons and bullets. If we really attack the artillery tower, we will be out of ammunition and food at most five minutes!"

The instructor hesitated and proposed: "Is it possible to destroy each of the Japanese out of the artillery tower?"

Chen Zhong did not deny: "I have thought about this method, but it is too risky and I dare not gamble!"

"The artillery towers along the railway are big and small, and there are forty or fifty Japanese and puppet troops in the small artillery tower. They will definitely not attack rashly. The bigger one is the stronghold, which is more than a hundred Japanese and puppet troops stationed in it, with a small team of Japanese and two Japanese soldiers and a company of two Japanese soldiers, of which two thirds of the troops belong to mobile troops."

"If you want to lead the Japanese and puppet troops out of the artillery tower and kill them outside, you can only attack such strongholds."

"Under normal circumstances, the stronghold will dispatch two squads of Japanese soldiers and two platoons of puppet troops to chase us. There are about one hundred Japanese and puppet troops, and the number of soldiers we have guns is similar, so we do not have the advantage of the troops."

"Not to mention the firepower advantage, it must be with the Japanese and puppet troops."

"The only thing we can use is the terrain advantage. We have a machine gun and more than 100 rifles. If it goes well, a round of firepower can kill more than 20 Japanese and puppet troops."

"The remaining sixty or seventy Japanese and puppet troops will definitely fight back on the spot. At this time, soldiers without rifles rushed out and strangled with the Japanese and puppet troops under the cover of all the rifles and machine guns of the guerrillas, and fought and resolved the battle."

"The Japanese and puppet troops equipped more machine guns than us, with sufficient ammunition and good marksmanship. Even if we have our own crawler, the offensive troops will suffer heavy casualties."

"And the Japanese are very good at fighting bayonets, and they are still desperate. Three people form a bayonet formation and can carry us a squad at will."

"I roughly calculated that if we want to wipe out the Japanese and puppet troops, our losses will definitely exceed one hundred people."

The instructor shook his head and sighed and replied: "This is too expensive, and the efforts and rewards are not proportional to the returns at all."

"The Japanese are becoming more and more cunning now. Unless they fight quickly and end the battle quickly, they will definitely destroy the extra weapons and ammunition before they die!"

"It would be great if you could seize forty or fifty guns in the end after a war like this. Don't even think about machine guns."

"There are very little ammunition, and it would be a blessing to make up for the damage to the war."

"More importantly, after this battle, there were fifty or sixty Japanese and puppet troops in the stronghold, and our strength did not increase but decreased, and we could not take down the artillery tower."

"Captain, we can't fight such a loss!"

"If it really doesn't work, wait a little longer, and there will definitely be a fighter jet!"

Chen Zhong was silent, his brows getting deeper and deeper.

As the captain of the guerrillas, no one wants to solve the current dilemma of the guerrillas more than him.

"Report..." The guard platoon leader suddenly appeared at the entrance of the team department, followed by Staff Zheng, who had come once a few days ago.

Chen Zhong quickly stood up, saluted, and then said: "Staff Officer Zheng, is it your superior who has a task for us?"

Staff Zheng strode in: "It's a task, and it's a good deal that can make sure you make money!"

"The superiors ask you to fight a raid along the Zhengtai Railway within two days and strive to blow up a section of the railway. You are the local snake here, and you are familiar with the terrain, so you should be fine!"

Chen Zhong smiled bitterly when he heard this, and then said, "Staff General Zheng, this mission is really a bit troublesome."

"Just just now, the instructor and I were discussing whether the guerrillas should intercept another army to solve the problem of lack of guns and ammunition in the army."

"The result of the discussion is that the current guerrillas have no strength to start on the railway line..."

After saying that, he reiterated the analysis he and the instructor just now.

After hearing this, Staff Zheng did not show any dissatisfaction, but smiled: "I heard that the biggest problem of the guerrillas lack strength to intercept the army is the lack of weapons and ammunition. If I help you solve this problem, can you complete the task?"

"Of course!" Chen Zhong's eyes rekindled hope, staring at Staff Zheng with his eyes lit up, and blurted out.

Staff Zheng was very pleased: "I will feel relieved if you say this!"

"Take a platoon and I go to transport weapons and ammunition immediately. In a valley two kilometers away from your base, the superiors have prepared a total of 100 rifles for you, four Czech-made, 12,000 bullets, 20 grenades. There is also a grenade launcher and 20 grenades. I just don't know if you will use it!"

Chen Zhong's first reaction was that he did not believe it. In his memory: after receiving the task of forming a guerrilla team, except for the main force supporting ten rifles and fifty oceans of activities when the troops were divided, he would never receive any support from the main force in the future.

Now, Staff General Zheng suddenly told his superiors that they supported a company of guerrillas, how could it not be doubtful?

As for why Staff Zheng did not mention the national rescue army, it was all for the sake of keeping it confidential.

The matter of the National Salvation Army secretly supporting the Eighth Route Army cannot be revealed. One person can be missing, and the guerrillas are complicated and the confidentiality discipline is not as good as the main force. If they are allowed to know that the weapons come from the National Salvation Army, they will know in less than two days that Staff Zheng dare not take this risk.

It was not until Chen Zhong saw more than twenty boxes covered by thatched with his own eyes that he believed that what Staff Zheng said was true.

As soon as he carried the box back to the station, he took out a bayonet and pried open the largest and longest wooden box with force.

Two Czech-shaped bodies with thick gun oil were placed inside, filled with wheat straw to prevent weapons from being damaged during transportation.

Chen Zhong was very quick to pick up a Czech build. After a quick check, the bullet was loaded and the trigger was pulled...

A "bang..." sounded in the gun chamber, and Chen Zhong's mouth immediately burst into laughter. After tossing and turning, he looked at the Czech creation in his hand again, and shouted excitedly.

"Good gun, and a new gun..."

"Staff General Zheng, these weapons were really allocated to us by our superiors!"

Chief Zheng nodded: "If you want to change the bag, these boxes contain rifles, all of which are the latest official ones, with a total of 100 bullets and grenades hitting them..."

"How is it? Now I have the confidence to fight a raid battle in two days!"

Chen Zhong had no concerns and answered confidently: "Have confidence!"

"Such good weapons and ammunition is in hand, and no matter how you say it, you have to fight a big battle, so that the soldiers can practice their skills."

"Instructor, you can divide one hundred rifles immediately, and then build two Czech ones, each company equipped with one."

"Tell the three company commanders that the troops will fight a big battle soon. Only veterans can use their power to equip the veterans. In addition, each rifle is equipped with twenty bullets and three hundred bullets. If it is not enough, all the grenades will be filled by one person. The soldiers who have not yet received the gun wait for a while and promise to fire them in two days."

"There are two remaining Czech-made and the only grenade launcher to form a fire platoon, first set up the racks, and then slowly restock the equipment."

"The troops will rest for one night today, be familiar with the equipment, and set out tomorrow afternoon, and after dark, attack the Dongling stronghold south of ours."

Since it was a big war, Chen Zhong would definitely not choose the artillery towers of forty or fifty garrisons, and he was targeted by the Dongling stronghold."

As the largest stronghold near the station, in addition to protecting the safety of the three-kilometer railway line on both sides of the stronghold, troops must be sent to reinforce the two artillery towers five kilometers away at any time.

Chen Zhong decided to use the method he had discussed with his instructors to lead the Japanese and puppet troops out of the stronghold first, then defeat them one by one, and finally capture the stronghold.

As long as you kill the Dongling stronghold, the two nearby artillery towers will be worth mentioning.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, several figures appeared on the railway more than 2,000 meters away from the Dongling stronghold. After boarding the railway, they began to dig pits and bury explosives.

In the first two minutes, a bright light suddenly shot towards them, instantly illuminating their figures.

"Baoba..." The Japanese and puppet troops patrolling along the railway line shot decisively, and then rushed towards the figure.

"Dadada..." A burst of machine gun strafing sounded in time on a small pile of soil in front of the Japanese and puppet troops.

Under the cover of night, the flames spurted out from the muzzle of the machine gun were particularly dazzling.

All the Japanese and puppet troops were exposed on the railway line and had nowhere to hide. Three people were instantly beaten to death and injured.

This is the cover force that intercepts the Japanese and puppet troops.

Taking advantage of the moment when the Japanese and puppet troops were lying down, the figures of people moving on the railway quickly retreated. More than ten seconds later, a "boom..." explosion sounded on the railway, and the continuous railway was instantly blown into two pieces.

At this time, the intercepting troops also began to retreat.
