Chapter 493 Transaction

About half an hour later, more than 20 bandit leaders and more than a hundred leaders from the Feixi Eighteen Villages followed Xu Rui and Yang Banan appeared on the heavy artillery brigade position, looking at the monster-like giants under the night.

caliber heavy field howitzers, the eyes of these bandit leaders and bandit leaders are about to fall to the ground.

"My dear, such a thick cannon? It's thicker than my thigh!"

"His grandma, if she gets hit by a shot, won't she be blown to pieces?"

"Blasted to slag? Iron Rooster, if you can still have a little bit of scum left, I will take your surname."

"Damn it, the Independent Regiment is getting rich now. If I had known it, our Qipan Village should also participate in the battle, so that we can get a few cannons. With such large-caliber heavy artillery, our Qipan Village will be awesome.

Not to mention the security forces, we are not afraid of the regular army, so why are we afraid of them?"

Listening to the bandit leaders whispering there, Xu Rui couldn't help but feel a little proud.

This is what Xu Rui wants. The reason why he invited these bandit leaders and big and small leaders to visit the battlefield is to use these large-caliber heavy artillery to scare these bandits and let them know that the independent group is definitely not something they can provoke.

First, in the future, whether it is recruitment or cooperation, the independent group will take the initiative.

From the reactions of these bandits, Xu Rui knew that his goal had been achieved.

After a while, Sun Changhe also came forward with his guard platoon.

The men of the Independent Regiment were busy cleaning the battlefield, but Sun Changhe's guard platoon had nothing to do.

Until now, Sun Changhe's guard platoon has not been clearly subordinated. In other words, until now, Sun Changhe's guard platoon cannot be regarded as members of the independent regiment, so this time cleaning the battlefield was ignored by the independent regiment.

Politeness is not allowed. The consistent style of the independent group is to take advantage of all the benefits and not leave any part of the soup to others.

Sun Changhe never thought about dividing the spoils. If he really got the spoils, could he still transport them back to the commander's headquarters? These were not a few mortars or small-caliber mountain artillery, but 150-caliber or above

Heavy artillery, I'm afraid the kid's plane will be blown up before they even get halfway.

So Sun Changhe didn't have any ideas.

"Tuanzu Xu, congratulations on your army's unprecedented victory." Sun Changhe saluted and said.

"An unprecedented victory?" Xu Rui shook his head and frowned and said, "What a great victory? Adjutant Sun, doesn't he think that our independent regiment has caused a huge trouble?"

"What a big trouble?" Sun Changhe was surprised, "I don't understand what Xu Tuanzuo said."

"What's wrong with this?" Xu Rui pointed at the heavy cannons with dark barrels pointing straight into the sky, and said with a grimace, "Let's just say that these heavy cannons are quite powerful when used. One shell

It can blow up a building, but the problem is that we don't have the conditions to use these heavy artillery."

Xu Rui told the truth, and he was really troubled by this matter.

The lightest of these large-caliber heavy artillery weighs three to four tons, and the heaviest weighs even more than ten tons. Without a truck towing it, it cannot move at all. Although their independent regiment also captured more than a hundred heavy-duty trucks this time,

But this is not just a matter of having a truck. To have a truck, you also need gasoline and diesel, and you also need to maneuver on the highway.

Unless you are protected by the air force, as soon as you hit the road, the Japanese will immediately send out attack planes and blow up all of you.

You said dispatching at night? Yes, if the target is within a hundred miles, you can hit it back and forth in one night. There is no big problem in dispatching at night, but the question is, what can you hit within a hundred miles? Fighting Japanese soldiers

Gun building? Your mother, use a large-caliber field heavy howitzer to hit the gun building? Isn't this really like using a cannon to fight mosquitoes?

So Xu Rui was really troubled. He was happy before the fight. After the fight, he discovered that the more than 100 heavy field howitzers he had taken so hard to capture were of no use, at least at this stage.

It may be useful when launching a strategic counterattack against the Japanese army in the future, but it is really not useful now.

But then again, this is also the trouble of happiness. In fact, it is just to behave well when you get an advantage.

Sun Changhe was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "It's true that these more than a hundred heavy artillery pieces are of little use if they are left in Xu Tuanzuo's hands. Otherwise, I would coordinate with the commander-in-chief of the Third War Zone, Xu Tuanzuo."

You can exchange these more than a hundred heavy field howitzers with the commander's department, and I believe Commander Gu will be very happy."

"Exchange?" Xu Rui rolled his eyes, and a thought suddenly flashed through his mind.

To be honest, Gu Shutong didn't really have what Xu Rui wanted, but Lao Jiang did.

What did Chiang Kai-shek have there? Hanyang Arsenal! The largest arsenal with the most comprehensive products in China at that time!

Of course, Xu Rui also knew that this was absolutely impossible. Even if Chairman Chiang wanted a heavy howitzer, he would never use the Hanyang Arsenal to make a deal with him, a small regiment leader. The only other reason was to lose face.

The key to Hanyang Arsenal is a cow that continuously produces fresh milk, and his more than one hundred heavy cannons are just milk.

It is probably impossible to exchange these more than 100 heavy artillery pieces for the Hanyang Arsenal, but it is possible to exchange them for the Jinling Arsenal.

The Jinling Arsenal is much smaller in scale than the Hanyang Arsenal, and has a single product range. It specializes in the production of Maxim water-cooled heavy machine guns. After the defeat of the Songhu Battle, all the equipment and personnel of the Jinling Arsenal have been packed and shipped to Hankou. Judging from the time,

, this batch of equipment and personnel should still be stranded in Hankou.

At that moment, Xu Rui began to quickly calculate the pros and cons in his mind.

If we keep these more than one hundred heavy artillery pieces, not to mention that they will not be used in the near future, we will have to spend a lot of manpower and material resources to preserve them. If the Japanese attack again like the last time, and the base area is lost again, then these more than one hundred heavy artillery pieces will be lost.

It is difficult to save heavy artillery. There are more than a hundred cannons, and the target is too big. It is not the same concept as an airplane or a tank.

Another thing, if these more than one hundred heavy artillery were given to the National Army, I am afraid that they would not be able to catch up with the Battle of Xuzhou, but they would be of great use in the subsequent Battle of Wuhan and Changsha. If Chairman Chiang can use these more than one hundred heavy artillery to organize

An artillery brigade, and then integrate this artillery brigade into Xue Yue's First Corps, then the result of the De'an Battle may not only be as simple as severely damaging the 106th Division, but maybe Okamura Neiji will fall into a big trap.

Fight!

Thinking of this, Xu Rui immediately made a decision, this transaction is worth it!

Sun Changhe just said this casually. In his impression, every one of our troops was extremely poor, and they could hold on to a few broken guns as if they were treasures, so Xu Rui must be reluctant to part with these cannons, but

After finishing speaking, Sun Changhe unexpectedly discovered that Xu Rui seemed to be a little moved?

At that moment, Sun Changhe asked again: "Xu Tuanzuo, what do you think?"

Xu Rui said: "It's not that it can't be exchanged. The key is what can Chief Gu give in exchange?"

Sun Changhe said: "It's nothing more than weapons and ammunition. Isn't this what Xu Tuanzuo needs?"

"Weapons and ammunition? Our independent group is not short of these. Now our independent group has more guns than people and enough bullets." Xu Rui waved his hands after hearing this. Xu Rui's words are really not nonsense. The independent group now really has more guns than people.

There are many, but it should be noted that most of these extra guns are damaged guns that cannot be used or need to be repaired. But now the independent regiment does not have its own gunsmiths or technicians, so there is no way to repair them.

As for having enough bullet barrels, that's pure nonsense. Without your own arsenal, bullets will always be a scarce commodity.

Sun Changhe smiled, but did not go to expose Xu Rui's bullshit, and asked: "What does Xu Tuanzuo want to exchange?"

"Arsenal!" Xu Rui stared at Sun Changhe and said word by word, "I want Hanyang Arsenal!"

"Hanyang Arsenal?" Two black lines immediately appeared on Sun Changhe's forehead and he said, "Tuanzuo Xu, you really dare to think and speak. So, just treat what I just said as if I didn't say it."

Xu Rui said, "Adjutant Sun, don't refuse in a hurry. If it's successful, you might as well tell Chief Gu first."

Sun Changhe turned to look at Yang Banan. Yang Banan nodded imperceptibly. After all, Yang Banan had been with Xu Rui longer than Sun Changhe, and he knew something about Xu Rui's character. Xu Rui wanted to

Hanyang Arsenal is just asking for a high price. This matter needs to be discussed. Besides, even if the negotiation is not successful in the end, there will be no loss to the Third War Zone.

"Okay, I will convey Xu Tuanzuo's intention to the superior department." Sun Changhe said.

"Okay, then I'll wait for Adjutant Sun's good news." Xu Rui chuckled, turned around and shouted, "You guys, hurry up, it's already dawn, and the Japanese attack planes will be here as soon as you speak. Hurry up.

Take all these cannons, trucks, and artillery shells away and disguise them, hurry up, hurry up!"

Xu Rui was really not talking nonsense. The Independence Regiment had just transferred the captured cannons, trucks and artillery shells and made the necessary disguises. The huge roar of aircraft engines rang out over Feicheng, followed by dozens of Type 97 aircraft.

The carrier-based attack aircraft came out of the clouds and dived towards the artillery position of the heavy artillery brigade.

Judging from the time, these dozens of Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft should have taken off from Nanjing Airport before dawn.

It can be seen that Shunroku Hata, an old devil, has also foreseen that his 5th independent field heavy artillery brigade cannot be saved, so he ordered the attack aircraft of the aviation regiment to take off early, preparing to blow up more than a hundred heavy artillery pieces of the heavy artillery brigade on the position.

, Shunroku Hata would rather destroy these heavy artillery than let them fall into the hands of the independent regiment.

Although there were no cannons on the artillery position of the heavy artillery brigade at this time, the Japanese attack planes did not give up and still carried out indiscriminate bombing of the artillery position for more than ten minutes until the last aerial bomb was dropped.

Dozens of Type 97 carrier-based attack aircraft pulled up again, then made a large circle in the air and began to return.
