"Yes, during this period we have been continuously hoarding food from top to bottom, and we have also continued to purchase food from other provinces and even enemy-occupied areas and Kuomintang-controlled areas."
"But our team has received the largest number of victims, and until today, we have not stopped accepting victims from outside."
"According to the ground, there are more and more disaster victims. There are tens of thousands of mouths to eat. The daily consumption is so staggering that even one million kilograms of grain will not last for a few days before it is gone."
"It's not easy enough to barely maintain our basic operations, but also to feed such a large army."
"That's it, Lao Kong, you are still thinking of helping a little bit, not only to the brigade headquarters, but also to the headquarters, and some troops in the surrounding areas who are in food difficulties."
"As long as it's difficult, whether you open your mouth or not, you, Lao Kong, are never ambiguous."
Speaking of this, Chief of Staff Xu Guoan, who has only been with the team for less than half a year, said with emotion:
"Many old comrades-in-arms from those days said that you, Lao Kong, have changed. In the past two years, you have become a profiteer like Lao Li."
"But now it's time for life and death."
"What old comrade-in-arms did you, Lao Kong, do and what was your national justice do?"
Xu Guoan speaks from the bottom of his heart.
As an old comrade of Kong Jie, when he was working as a staff officer at the brigade headquarters, he was surprised by the rapid development of the independent regiment and the transformation of his old comrade Kong Jie, but he was not deeply impressed.
Until Kong Jie asked him to get him from the brigade commander and became the chief of staff of a brigade.
Only then did Xu Guoan deeply feel how difficult it was for Kong Jie to be the leader.
As well as Kong Jie’s amazing long-term vision and advanced strategic thinking.
Once when I went to the brigade headquarters for a meeting, Commander Feng of the Fifth Regiment made a joke at the meeting:
"Lao Kong has not had an easy life these years!"
"I am the leader of the group, but what I care about is the heart of our entire base area."
When Captain Feng said this, everyone burst into laughter, just taking it as a joke.
Xu Guoan was sighing at this moment, Captain Feng hit the nail on the head.
After hearing what Xu Guoan said, Kong Jie couldn't help but smile. The wrinkles on his entire face were almost piled up due to excessive worry.
"It's rare. When did you, Mr. Xu, start to flatter others?"
Hahaha——
Kong Jie laughed for a while and then asked about the business.
"How's the planning going at Dafengzhuang?"
Xu Guoan, who was in charge of the matter, replied: "Everything is fine, then Xie Baoqing is quite smart."
"Deliberately placing the Japanese spies in the migrant workers' corps in the transportation team, and pretending to reveal flaws in the bags of real grain used by the transportation team during the journey, exposing the grains of wheat in them."
"Xie Baoqing, who put on a full show, in order to show the Japanese spies how much food was transported this time, even took a few bags of food and asked the cooking team to cook dinner."
"The comrades of the migrant workers' league had a wonderful meal at night."
"I'm not afraid that the Japanese spies won't believe him."
"In addition, Shi Dahu's war neglect bureau also deliberately released news to let the Japanese know that we have recently been short of food in the base area and are transporting food to the base area through Dafengzhuang."
"If the armored troops secretly transferred to Yangquan by the Japanese are really coming for our independent regiment, I don't think it will take long for them to show up."
Kong Jie nodded, "The preparations for anti-tank operations in Dafengzhuang can officially begin."
Xu Guoan smiled and said: "Don't worry, head, by the evening of this evening, Xie Baoqing's migrant workers' group will have finished transporting the fake grain and will evacuate with all the people and horses of the migrant workers' group."
"The Japanese spies hiding inside will naturally leave with them."
"Several battalion commanders have gathered their elite troops, together with the anti-tank combat troops from our regiment, and secretly rushed to Dafengzhuang to build anti-tank combat fortifications with lights on all night long."
"So, everything is ready, just waiting for the fish to take the bait." Kong Jie said with a smile.
……
……
Time passed quietly, and evening quickly turned into night.
Dafengzhuang should be peaceful, but at this moment, the soldiers are busy in full swing with the help of the light of the large-wattage light bulbs used in some parts of Dafengzhuang.
Lei Dasheng, commander of the first battalion of the Independent Regiment, Du Aiguo, commander of the second battalion, and Zhu Wu, commander of the third battalion, are all here.
"According to the intelligence from the headquarters, the Japanese troops will definitely attack Dafengzhuang in less than a day and in three to five days."
"I heard from the regiment leader that the Japanese armored forces coming this time will use a large number of tanks and armored vehicles. This is the first time for a big girl to get into a sedan chair like this in such a large-scale anti-tank battle!"<
/p>
When instructing the soldiers to build anti-tank trenches, battalion commander Lei Dasheng said with a smile.
"By the way, are the surrounding security measures in place?"
Du Aiguo said: "Lao Lei, don't you feel at ease when we do things?"
"The entire area around Dafengzhuang has been surrounded by our security posts, and the warning distance has been extended far enough until the lights of Dafengzhuang can no longer be seen."
"The villagers in Dafengzhuang have also been secretly transferred away. In the past few days, we soldiers have disguised themselves as villagers and deceived the little devils."
After discussion, everything was prepared and nothing was disclosed. The three battalion commanders all breathed a sigh of relief.
Then, the three people changed the topic and began to discuss the issue of seizure.
The first battalion commander Lei Dasheng said happily: "The Japs' iron bastard bullied us in the past few years because we didn't have any anti-tank artillery, but they were very arrogant."
"I see that our regiment commander has always been thinking about building an armored vehicle unit belonging to our team! From the initial development of our cavalry company, to a motorized unit, and then to a semi-mechanized heavy-armed unit, we can see one or two things
."
"After this anti-tank battle is over, the regiment commander will definitely build an armored vehicle unit in our team."
"That's for sure." Zhu Wu, the commander of the third battalion, said with a smile: "Otherwise, the regimental commander would not have given the order. This anti-tank battle will focus on blocking Japanese tanks."

"Most of them are just traps. The leader wants to seize the Japanese tanks completely, otherwise it would be so troublesome?"
"During this period, the repair shop has produced a lot of new equipment to deal with Japanese tanks."
"Not to mention too many, if we bring ten or eight 37mm anti-tank guns over, it won't work no matter how many tanks the devils bring."
Lei Dasheng smiled and said: "The regiment commander has thought well. You said that the Japanese have such good tanks and armored vehicles. It would be great if they could fall into our hands. Who would be willing to blow them up?"
"Let's go, I just said that, let's go see how the anti-tank fortifications dug by the soldiers are going."
"Okay!"
As they talked, they rushed to Qiancun together.
The terrain of Dafengzhuang is indeed interesting. Although it is located in the Taihang Mountains, a large area in front and behind the village is relatively gentle.
This is also where the little devils in Taiyuan City secretly rejoiced.
They believed that the terrain of Dafengzhuang was so beautiful that God allowed them to conduct a tank assault.
When Lei Dasheng and three others arrived, the soldiers were digging anti-tank trenches.
These soldiers who are digging trenches are no ordinary soldiers.
We are all soldiers who have been studying in the military skills training class recently, and we are still studying the engineering department.
If you think that this engineering department is just ordinary soil work, you are totally wrong.
For example, Li Yunlong, who came to the Independent Regiment to learn tanks last time, went to the military skills class and even took a special engineer teaching class.
At the end of the course, Lao Li sighed with emotion:
"Damn it, our old Li is really experienced."
"This simple soil work has been turned into a joke."
"From foxholes built by individual soldiers, individual trench digging techniques, to machine gun fortifications, artillery fortifications, various types of anti-artillery fortifications, and various types of trench fortifications..."
"It ranges from digging smokeless stoves to digging various anti-tank trenches, from building a stove to building airports and forts. There is really nothing these engineers can't do."
At this moment, what appeared in front of Lei Dasheng and other three battalion commanders was the practical application of the soldiers’ theoretical study in the military skills training class.
According to the standard dimensions, a standard inverted trapezoidal anti-tank trench was dug corresponding to the various types of Japanese tanks. The lower bottom is about three meters wide, the upper bottom is about five meters wide, and the height is about two meters.
Make sure that after the Japanese tank falls into the trench, it cannot be driven out.
In addition, there are triangular trenches that block the speed of Japanese tanks. The surface of the trench is camouflaged and is two to three meters high. It causes the Japanese tanks to roll over and is a cliff trap. The power of the explosion is controlled to ensure that the Japanese tracks can be blown up.
Mines...
"The first step is to trap the Japanese tanks in a trap or make the Japanese tanks lose their mobility."
"The second step is to find a way to force out the Japanese tank soldiers hiding in the tank. Otherwise, it will not be easy to kill these little Japanese soldiers without destroying the tank."
"So the regiment leader asked the armory to prepare a lot of paprika grenades. Although they are not very powerful, if they are thrown in along the observation window and hatch cover of the Japs tank, they will not kill the Japs but they will choke him to death!"<
/p>
"The little devil who is not afraid of his stupidity will be a coward and will not come out."
