Four hundred and twentieth chapters made a fortune
"It must be something happened in Taiyuan!" Chen Zhengxiang looked at the direction where Taiyuan City was, and frowned.
"That captain, this order!" the chief of staff asked hesitantly.
Since its establishment, the First Detachment has never suffered such great losses. Now it has been damaged. The Chief of Staff cannot imagine how much casualties the troops will have to fight against the Japanese for a day. So, from the bottom of my heart, the Chief of Staff is resistant to this order!
"Execute according to the order!" Chen Zhengxiang was also very resistant to this order.
But he did not forget that he was a soldier, and he was also a senior commander of the Eighth Route Army. Although he frowned, he finally ordered with a fierce temper.
Although the headquarters said in a telegram that after the battle, the headquarters would provide funds and weapons and equipment to restore the combat effectiveness of the troops, Chen Zhengxiang did not take it seriously.
As an old revolutionary, Chen Zhengxiang was very aware of the situation at the headquarters.
Unless there is no fortune from heaven, the headquarters will definitely not have funds, weapons and ammunition to support it.
As for things like wealth from heaven, as long as nothing unexpected happens, they will definitely not be born in the Eighth Route Army.
After the expression on his face was slowly replaced by firmness, Chen Zhengxiang did not say a word of nonsense and directly ordered: "Order the regiments to strengthen the logistics troops, command staff, and documents to the front-line combat troops. We will hold on for a day before we can retreat."
"Also, let's take all the ammunition we've been in the box and tell the three regiment commanders to save ammunition as much as possible and reduce casualties!"
"Also, we will also inform the headquarters of the air defense measures. Now there are two or three hours before dawn, so we must implement it immediately!"
In Taiyuan Arsenal, more and more workers were temporarily summoned back to dismantle the equipment under the command of technicians and engineers.
Even though several hours have passed, less than 10% of the total equipment has been dismantled.
"You have to add people! The Chief of Staff notified Brigade Commander Cheng to organize all the political cadres in the army and recruit soldiers in Taiyuan City. Students and young men should be recruited. If you recruit one, you will send one to the arsenal. The more the better!" Wang Ping was very dissatisfied with the progress of the arsenal's relocation and frowned and ordered.
As soon as the chief of staff left, the communications platoon leader rushed over with an excited look on his face.
"The regiment commander, the headquarters telegram, agreed to give us another day to empty Taiyuan. Before ten o'clock tonight, the entire army must withdraw from Taiyuan City!"
"Okay, finally there is time!" Wang Ping smiled, and smiled very happily.
I immediately found Zhou Zihang and the political commissar of the arsenal and ordered: "Political Commissar, Zhou Zihang notified that the arsenal will be relocated to you. I will emptiate the entire arsenal before 8 o'clock tonight! No matter what is needed, I will satisfy you!"
"Cars, a lot of cars are needed!" the political commissar replied without thinking.
"Many equipment in the arsenal is too heavy, and the big trucks cannot be dragged away, so they can only use cars. And if there are cars, our relocation rate will definitely be much faster!"
For the Eighth Route Army, cars are definitely rare. If you search the entire army, you may only find seven or eight units.
Therefore, the political commissar regretted this request.
But the result was unexpected. Wang Ping actually agreed and looked determined, not as if he was fooling himself.
"Give me half an hour, and in half an hour, there will definitely be a car coming to report to you!"
After saying that, Wang Ping walked outside the arsenal and ordered as he walked: "Company Commander Yang, please find the Imperial Army with the best position in the middle of the prisoner. I have something to do with it!"
Not long after, a battalion commander of the Imperial Army was shaking his whole body and dragged him to Wang Ping.
Wang Ping was not polite and asked directly: "Cars, I need cars, and I also need a lot of cars. You must be very familiar with Taiyuan City. As long as you find me enough 100 cars, I will promise to let you go!"
As the capital of Shaanxi Province and the location of the First Japanese Army, whether it is military or civilian, there must be a lot of cars.
However, if there were no local snakes to help me, even if I searched through the entire outer city of Taiyuan City, I would not find a few cars, and it would take a lot of time!
"Sir, you are not lying!" As expected, as soon as he finished speaking, the battalion commander of the Imperial Army asked with his eyes lit up.
"Our Eighth Route Army keeps its word and will never lie!" Wang Ping affirmed.
"Okay, I've done it, I'll help you find a car!"
What made Wang Ping depressed was that the arsenal alone was found by the battalion commander of the Imperial Army.
This is a car that the arsenal specializes in transporting weapons and ammunition to the front line. Because it is affiliated with the baggage unit, although Zhou Zihang is the deputy director of a branch of the arsenal, he still does not know the existence of these cars.
"Company Commander Wang, arrange for people to send these cars to the arsenal and hand them over to the political commissar to transport equipment outside the city. As long as you transport the things to the mountains outside the city, it will be easy to do next!" Wang Ping, who was both depressed and excited, immediately ordered the guard company commander.
"Captain, no one in our guard company can drive a car!" The guard company commander said with an embarrassment.
Wang Ping's brows frowned suddenly, but it didn't take long for him to think of a solution.
"Someone in the puppet army will definitely drive. Go to the puppet army to find it and tell them to help me drive a car for one day and give me a reward of fifty dollars!"
"There are also workers and students in the arsenal. They often come into contact with equipment, so some people will definitely drive it. Find it all!"
Time passed quickly in the busy life. As soon as the Japanese plane, which had been arrogant overhead for a day, left, the sky gave it to him.
However, the lively arsenal did not calm down because it was dark.
Not far away, the sound of gunfire was very fierce on the inner wall of Taiyuan City, which the Japanese army defended, and several stray bullets flew over from time to time. However, the tragic battlefield did not affect the relocation of the arsenal.
As soon as Wang Ping walked in, the political commissar rushed over with a relaxed look on his face.
"The factory manager, there is the last workshop. It's six-thirty now, and at the latest eight o'clock, the arsenal will definitely be emptied by us."
As soon as he finished speaking, Cheng Xiao rushed over at some point, with a smile on his face.
"Old Wang, we made a lot of money at the Japanese Taiyuan Airport. After we dismantled all the empty weapons that could be removed, we actually had 36 anti-aircraft machine guns and 12 anti-aircraft guns, and almost the equipment of an air defense regiment!"
"Also, the harvest in the city is also amazing!"
"Foreign companies, hospitals, banks, and Japanese and puppet troops' homes, there are more than 4.58 million oceans captured by them, and there are also gold worth 5.6 million oceans!"
"I have packed all these funds and arranged a battalion to guard them. During the day, they will be trapped in the middle of the retreating troops and rushed to the base!"
"As for other supplies, as well as weapons and ammunition, there are more, and they can be described in countless four words!"
