Except for shell guns and grenade launchers, Zhang Chu basically didn't want any other weapons.
All the weapons and equipment left on the battlefield were handed over to Han Xiu and the others.
After capturing the county seat, there will definitely be a lot of aftermath work to do. They need weapons.
The Bobosha submachine gun has been recovered.
This kind of rapid-fire weapon is obviously not suitable for them. Because the consumption of ammunition is too high, it can only be replenished by following Zhang Chu's actions.
The Eighth Route Army only occupied it temporarily.
Once the Japanese invaders counterattack, they will definitely give up.
Therefore, before this happens, all supplies stored by the Japanese invaders must be emptied.
What supplies did the Japanese invaders store?
There are flour, rice, cotton cloth, medicines, salt, etc. Move them all away.
Other coal, iron ore, etc. are not needed for the time being. These are raw materials and the Eighth Route Army does not have the processing capability.
There are still traitors that need to be cleaned up...
There are also hidden Japanese agents and remaining black dogs...
"Snapped!"
"Snapped!"
Hardcore traitors are constantly being found.
What our party and our army are best at is mobilizing the masses. As long as the masses report, they will be accepted immediately.
Hardcore traitors were shot one by one.
There were also policemen from the puppet Manchukuo who were also executed.
You must never be soft-hearted when dealing with your enemies.
Otherwise, how could we be worthy of so many people who died at the hands of the Japanese invaders?
Treat prisoners preferentially?
Sorry. They are not prisoners.
They resisted stubbornly and refused to surrender. Therefore, they could not enjoy the treatment of prisoners...
"Zhang Chu!"
Ding Wei came in a hurry.
Shouyin City has been captured and we must hurry up.
After all, Cangyun Ridge is their destination.
According to the special instructions from the headquarters, Ding Wei served as the commander of the special force and ordered all troops along the railway, including the 28th Regiment, to move to Cangyun Ridge to prepare to participate in the general attack on Cangyun Ridge.
Zhang Chu is also nominally a staff officer at the headquarters. However, the organizational relationship is still with the New Regiment. In other words, the New Regiment is Zhang Chu's home. The headquarters only occasionally borrows it.
"Captain Ding, let's go directly to the railway!"
"OK?"
"Don't be afraid!"
Zhang Chu is full of confidence.
Today's Japanese invaders are already frightened. What are they afraid of?
You see, the Japanese invaders' planes are now too busy. They are attacking Shouyin, but the Japanese invaders' planes are not dispatched.
So many anti-aircraft machine guns were wasted.
"but……"
Ding Wei hesitated for a moment.
Taking the railway line is undoubtedly the fastest.
They now have too many people and weapons. If they walk on mountain roads, their speed will definitely be very slow.
The time given to them by the headquarters was half a month. Obviously, the headquarters also considered that the "heavy weapons" they carried were slow to move, so they did not ask for a special speed. However, if they walked in plain areas with "heavy weapons", the speed would undoubtedly be much faster.
.
They can even take a train from Shouyin and go all the way west.
The problem is, to the west is Taiyuan.
They need to change trains at Taiyuan Railway Station and then turn north.
what does that mean?
This means that they have to enter the Japanese defense circle in Taiyuan.
The train station in Taiyuan was one of the areas heavily guarded by the Japanese invaders. Once you get close, you will definitely be attacked by the Japanese invaders.
A fierce battle is bound to begin.
What is that place?
It's Taiyuan! It's the capital of Jin Province! It's where the core force of the Japanese invaders is!
Hit Taiyuan!
too exaggerated!
Ding Wei is not so arrogant yet!
"We were just passing by!"
"The Japanese invaders will definitely not fight us to the death."
"After the 29th Division moves north, it is estimated that there will not be many Japanese invaders in Taiyuan City."
"We spread out our postures and made a formation to attack Taiyuan. We bluffed, Xu Huang fired a shot, and then quietly went north. Isn't that what happened when we crossed Chishui four times and attacked Guiyang? It is said that Chiang Kai-shek was scared to death!"
"OK!"
When Ding Wei heard this, he immediately became excited!
Crossing the Chishui River four times was a masterpiece of a great man! He also knew it.
It is said that Guiyang was empty of troops at that time, and Chiang Kai-shek, who was in Guiyang, was indeed frightened and could not sleep at night. He hurriedly mobilized troops to return reinforcements. Then the Central Red Army easily got rid of the enemy and quickly moved northward, successfully jumping out of the enemy's encirclement.
Now, they can also scare Yoshio Shinozuka.
Hit the cannonball at the door of Yoshio Shinozuka's house and see what his reaction will be.
Immediately ordered the troops to march westward.
He didn't hide his whereabouts either. He headed westward along the railway line without hesitation.
Some soldiers even got on the train.
The train was temporarily requisitioned, but it only had six carriages and could only carry 300 people.
Who will lead the team? It must be Zhang Chu! He took a reinforced company and took the train west. He was the first to arrive near Taiyuan Railway Station.
This is a big deal.
The Japanese spies discovered it immediately and hurriedly reported Yoshio Shinozuka.
"Nani?"
"idiot!"
Yoshio Shinozuka finally lost his composure.
He, who had always praised himself as a Confucian general, finally couldn't help but curse.
Damn Tubal Road!
How dare they march towards Taiyuan!
What are they going to do?
Attack Taiyuan?
Don’t even think about it!
Don’t even think about it!
What place is Taiyuan? Can your Tubal Road attack?
See if I don't beat your heads to pieces.
However, facing the mighty offensive of Tubal Road, Yoshio Shinozuka did not dare to neglect.
The most critical thing about him right now is his lack of troops.
The 29th Division went north. Other independent mixed brigades were not near Taiyuan.
Will they be transferred back as fast as a spark?
joke!
Absolutely impossible!
Yoshio Shinozuka is not that cowardly yet.
If he immediately ordered the troops to be mobilized back now, it would really be tantamount to telling everyone that Yoshio Shinozuka was scared.
This is something to be laughed at.
From then on, he was unable to raise his head in the Japanese military circles.
All, he must hold on.
He must rely on Taiyuan's own strength to defeat Tubal Road!
"Abandon the perimeter defenses."
"Concentrate your forces and defend the inner city!"
Yoshio Shinozuka gave the order.
The Japanese invaders built a large number of fortifications around Taiyuan.
If there are enough troops, these fortifications can face thousands of Chinese troops.
Even if millions of Chinese troops come to attack, he is not afraid at all.
But now, aren’t there no soldiers?
If you don't have enough troops, just sprinkle some pepper. It will be eaten away by Tubal Road little by little.
Instead of spreading out the troops and being defeated by Tubal Road one by one, it is better to concentrate the troops and defend the inner city defense line to teach Tubal Road a lesson.
then……
The Japanese troops on the periphery quickly retreated.
A large number of peripheral fortifications were abandoned. However, the railway station was not included.
There are still heavy Japanese troops stationed at the train station.
So, the train stopped five kilometers away from the station.
Zhang Chu got out of the car with the reinforcement.
The first step is to set up a 120mm mortar and blast it at the train station.
"update successed!"
"The upgrade consumes 50,000 funds..."
It's almost like laughing to death.
The system may be lazy and too lazy to distinguish.
All mortars have the same upgrade funds. All are 50,000.
No matter the caliber is large or small.
The caliber of 60 mm is 50,000. The caliber of 120 mm is also 50,000. The caliber of 160 mm is also 50,000.
Of course, Zhang Chu upgraded five 120mm mortars without any hesitation.
In this case, why not upgrade dozens of doors?
Sorry, it cannot be carried. There are not enough vehicles. Including mules, etc.
This 120mm mortar is very heavy. Its long-distance transportation vehicle is actually a jeep or a pickup truck. At least a tricycle is required. Otherwise, it will be very troublesome to rely solely on manpower and animal power.
If he didn't want to threaten Taiyuan, he wouldn't want to upgrade such a heavy weapon.
The system [Vehicle] column has not been upgraded for a long time.
I don't know how to upgrade either.
However, six 120mm mortars are enough. They can definitely let the Japanese invaders enjoy the pleasure of one Buddha ascending to heaven and two Buddhas being born.
"boom!"
"boom!"
A dull explosion sounded.
Even though they are two or three kilometers apart, they can still be heard clearly.
After all, it is a 120mm artillery shell!
Once it explodes, it will be a big pit.
"idiot!"
"There are heavy artillery on Tubal Road!"
"Report! There is a large-caliber heavy artillery on Tubal Road!"
The Japanese invaders suddenly became nervous.
This is an artillery shell over 100 mm!
It was still very destructive to the Japanese invaders' defenses.
Especially the temporary defensive fortifications. The sky cover was lifted almost with one shot.
Many Japanese invaders were beaten to death.
Well, he was also shocked to death across the fortifications. He was bleeding from all his orifices and had no external injuries.
"idiot!"
"Calm down!"
"Calm down!"
Yoshio Shinozuka remained unfazed on the surface.
What's wrong with the heavy artillery on Tubal Road...
There are heavy artillery on Tubal Road...
Huh?
Are there heavy artillery on Tubal Road?
My heart sank quietly. Could it be that...
Is Tubal Road really going to attack Taiyuan?
Otherwise, why were all the heavy artillery brought up?
Damn...
Tubalu has such a big appetite?
But no matter what, you still have to support it without changing your expression.
Yoshio Shinozuka did not ask for help from his superiors.
However, the information that Taiyuan was under attack was still passed on to the higher authorities.
"Nani?"
"Taiyuan is under attack?"
Tada Shun was shocked.
Itagaki Seishiro was shocked!
hateful!
The situation in Jin Province is so corrupt!
"What?"
"We have troops attacking Taiyuan?"
"Whose troops?"
The Eighth Route Army Headquarters and Headquarters were also shocked. What happened? Someone actually attacked Taiyuan?
Who is so arrogant?
How dare you attack Taiyuan?
Because the movement was too big. This time, the Eighth Route Army system also knew it very quickly.
Moreover, they quickly figured out from Ding Wei that it was Zhang Chu who was attacking Taiyuan. There was such a big noise right away! A 120mm mortar was used directly! No wonder the Japanese invaders were so nervous!
