The chief of staff hesitated and replied: "Commander, we have no reason to prevent the Eighth Route Army from conducting live-fire training!"
"The only way is to force them out of southwestern Shanxi!"
Chief Yan nodded and replied: "Forcing them completely out of southwestern Shanxi is indeed the best way to solve the problem."
"Order, the logistics department will immediately deliver food supplies to the garrison in Linfen City!"
"Chief of Staff, you immediately dispatch two independent divisions to reinforce Linfen, with Linfen City as the center, and gradually encroach on the Eighth Route Army base area!"
"Local officials must follow up in time. If the troops occupy a village, they will control a village for me!"
At the new regiment headquarters outside Linfen City, the chief of staff suddenly rushed in.
"Captain, the Jinsui Army's supply convoy has appeared!"
"The first batch of more than 80 large trucks loaded with food and other supplies have set off from the World War II zone and are destined for Linfen City. A battalion of the Shanxi-Sui Army is escorting them!"
Wang Ping's eyes lit up and he replied: "Our good days are coming!"
"Order Xiao Yunshan to destroy the roads in the area under his control."
"When the transport troops of the Jinsui Army arrive at his place, I will tell him how to deal with the transport troops of the Jinsui Army!
At the Jinsui Army garrison in Fengxing Town, the regimental commander worked with dark circles under his eyes for several days.
I yawned in the morning and just finished my meal when a company commander rushed in.
"Tuanzuo, something happened!"
"The Eighth Route Army organized a large number of civilians to cause destruction on the highway, and there were troops to protect them. There was no way we could get close enough to stop them!"
"What?" The leader stood up from his seat.
He couldn't sit still. He just received a telegram yesterday. A transport team would pass through today and head to Linfen City!
If the road is damaged and the transport team cannot pass through and reach Linfen City, then all the responsibility will be placed on yourself, the commander of the garrison.
"Let's go, take a battalion with you. Now go and have a look. Chief of Staff, you will go with us, as will the guard company and the first battalion!"
On the road less than one kilometer away from the station, a company of the Eighth Route Army was directly blocking the front, and a temporary roadblock was built with sandbags. Behind the roadblock, thousands of ordinary people were digging holes and trenches on the road with various tools.
,very busy!
"What are you doing? Stop immediately, and ask your commander to come over!" the regiment leader went over and ordered angrily.
The person in front of me was just a company commander of the Eighth Route Army. I was the colonel commander, so I was qualified to speak in such a condescending manner.
The company commander was not frightened and replied with a righteous expression: "Forgive me, sir, but our battalion commander is conducting military exercises in the back and cannot come over!"
"Also, there is a military exercise going on behind, which involves our military's military secrets. No one can go there..."
The regimental commander knew that the Eighth Route Army would keep its word and did not force him to go.
However, he must stop the destruction of the highway. Otherwise, the transport troops will not be able to go to Linfen through here, and then all the responsibilities will fall on him. As a regiment leader, there is no way he can bear such a big responsibility!
He hesitated and continued to ask: "Military exercises are just exercises, why do you want to destroy the highway!"
The company commander responded directly: "Sir, you don't know something. The content of our drill is to destroy the highway in a short period of time so that the enemy cannot launch an attack on the base area through the highway!"
"By the way, our battalion commander asked me to tell your army that the exercise will only last for one morning and will end in the afternoon!"
The leader couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
At twelve o'clock at noon, the roadblock was opened on time. But the group leader was not happy at all.
"Go away, the Eighth Route Army must have done this on purpose. They must have known that we would have a transport team passing by in the afternoon, and then they suddenly conducted such an exercise!" Looking at the bumpy road in front of him, the regiment leader yelled.
The chief of staff was also very anxious: "Regiment, what should we do? The transport team is coming in an hour!"
"Of course it's road construction!" the regiment leader ordered angrily.
"Bring all the troops over to build roads~ Also, organize people from nearby villages to help us build roads, and repair the damaged roads as soon as possible. It must not affect the marching speed of the transportation troops, otherwise all of us will be in trouble.
Let’s go!”
The troops arrived twenty minutes later, but they could not find a single citizen in the nearby village.
When the transportation team arrived, they had only built less than five kilometers of road.
Originally, the transport team had to spend the night at the next stronghold thirty kilometers away tonight. Due to the delay in road construction, they had to take the night road to the next stronghold.
At seven o'clock in the evening, every Jinsui Army soldier in the transport team was panting from exhaustion.
Suddenly, a barrier blocked the way.
"Everyone, stop. The remaining forces of the Japs are being encircled and suppressed in front. No one can pass this section of the road until the battle is over!" Xiao Yunshan personally stepped out to block the Jinsui Army!
"We are from the transportation team of the Logistics Department of the World War II Zone. We must go there. Your Eighth Route Army has no right to stop us!" Because he held a large amount of logistics supplies in his hands, even though he was only a battalion commander, in the World War II Zone, the regiment commander was shocked when he saw him.
Respectfully, I have never been so angry before, so I retorted without hesitation.
Xiao Yunshan didn't care about this and directly ordered: "I suspect that there is a Japs spy among you, and you plan to send a message to the remaining Japs forces in the encirclement!"
"First company, second company, separate them from the cart first, screen them one by one, and if you find the little Japanese agents, take them down firmly, and then let them go after the battle is over at dawn!"
A group of baggage soldiers who have never been on the battlefield can never be a match for a group of veterans.
"You can't do this!"
I struggled to refuse, but all my opposition was in vain.
More than 300 people were quickly surrounded by two companies and taken to the side of the road.
"Battal Commander, the car is full of good stuff, including grain, pork, salt, oil, vegetables, everything!" the deputy battalion commander rushed over from the convoy and reported with gleaming eyes.
"Each vehicle moved half of the supplies, grain, salt and oil, as well as pork and vegetables. All of them were moved. The Jinsui Army eats meat, so we Eighth Route Army must have some soup!" Xiao Yunshan replied with a smile on his face.
Then he added: "As for those Jin-Sui troops, we still need to screen those who should be screened. Maybe we can find one or two Japanese spies!"
"In this case, if we take their food, they will have nothing to say!"
The instructor next to him looked worried and couldn't help but remind him: "Batalion Commander, will this cause any problems?"
Xiao Yunshan replied with confidence: "This is the order of the regiment leader, I believe the regiment leader!"
"And even if something goes wrong, the group leader will be there to take care of it, so Lao Yang, you don't have to worry about it!"
"What we need to worry about now is how to get these grains, oils, pork and vegetables into the stomachs of the soldiers!"
"By the way, let the common people help us destroy the road during the day. The promised food must be given to them, and it will be deducted from our harvest tonight!"
