Cheng Xiao immediately replied: "No problem, I will make arrangements right away. Now that each village has our working groups and guerrillas, there will definitely be no problem in clearing the country and clearing the wall!"
"It's just that there won't be too many rifles left in the Logistics Department, and since you just promised to give the military region and military subdivisions so many rifles, Commander, we will have even less left!"
Wang Ping said with a helpless smile: "I originally thought I could earn hundreds of guns from them. But the military area is not easy, and there will be a big battle soon. These weapons are useful, so I decided to give them more.
Some weapons, please forgive me, political commissar!"
"I don't have any objections. We in the Eighth Route Army are all one family, let alone military divisions and military regions!"
In less than three days, Cheng Xiao collected more than a thousand desired clay pots and jars from outside the mountain.
And Wang Ping also came to the repair shop of the Logistics Department again.
Today, the scale of the repair shop has reached nearly forty people. Adding in the apprentices sent by the military divisions and military regions, there are nearly a hundred people.
Because they were all dismantling and arming firearms, Wang Ping did not alert them and specially transferred dozens of people from the logistics department to help him.
"Director Jiang, I remember that there are several thousand kilograms of high explosives piled in the warehouse!" Wang Ping asked as soon as he saw Jiang Hongchun.
"A total of more than five thousand kilograms, all of which are powerful yellow explosives!" Jiang Hongchun, who knew all about the independent group's family wealth, immediately replied.
Wang Ping was very happy and ordered: "As long as it is powerful, you can ask someone to send me five hundred kilograms first, and then send me a box of bullets. In addition, make a separate room for me. I can use it!"
At this point, everyone should have guessed what Wang Ping wants to do!
Landmines, yes, they are landmines, and they are ceramic mines that cannot be detected by Japanese mine detectors.
The clay pot and gravel are used as the shell and fragments, the yellow gunpowder is used as the explosive, and the bullet primer and a small firing pin are used as the triggering device.
After the enemy guessed the mine, the firing pin hit the bullet, igniting the primer of the bullet, thereby igniting the yellow explosive in the mine, causing an explosion, and it was very simple to get away.
In one afternoon, Wang Ping completed three mines with the help of his subordinates.
"Inform the political commissar and the chief of staff to go to the training ground and let's go test the mines!" Wang Ping ordered with his eyes shining as he looked at three landmines filled with three kilograms of yellow gunpowder.
When Cheng Xiao and Zeng Quan hurried over, Wang Ping had already laid the mines, and there were more than a dozen scarecrows scattered around within ten meters.
Under two pairs of puzzled gazes, Wang Ping directly ordered
The subordinates set fire to it.
"Boom!" The mine reacted very quickly, and the violent explosion sounded suddenly like thunder, followed by a fireball mixed with a lot of black smoke rising from the ground. Its power was no worse than an infantry artillery shell.
When the smoke cleared, a crater nearly one meter deep appeared on the battlefield.
Not to mention, the area around the crater had been blackened by the flames produced by burning gunpowder. More importantly, the dozen or so scarecrows standing around were all blown over, and the five or six scarecrows closer were even blown away.
Then fall apart!
"Hiss!" Both political commissar Cheng Xiao and chief of staff Zeng Quan took a breath of cold air.
"Captain, this is the landmine we made ourselves. This mine is even more powerful than the landmines we captured!" Cheng Xiao, who was the first to react, couldn't help but exclaimed.
Wang Ping answered naturally: "Of course, although the mines captured by the Japanese were made of iron, they were loaded with up to two kilograms of explosives. And our ceramic landmines were filled with three kilograms of yellow gunpowder. Is there not a big risk?"
"Political Commissar, I plan to build a thousand of these mines first, and distribute most of them to local troops. As soon as the Japanese come out of the city, we will use the mines to greet them!"
Cheng Xiao and Zeng Quan exclaimed with surprise on their faces: "It's very powerful and lethal, and the Japanese minesweeper can't even sweep it out. I'm sure these mines will bring a huge surprise to the Japanese!"
Cheng Xiao then added: "With the big killer weapon of ceramic landmines, we have another trump card in this counter-encirclement and suppression campaign. Commander, I am now more and more confident in the counter-encirclement and suppression campaign that our independent regiment is about to face.
Got it!"
"Having confidence is a good thing!" Wang Ping wanted this result, and then ordered directly.
"Political Commissar, you immediately give an order to the local troops and guerrillas, asking them to immediately send people to the base area to learn how to use landmines. Once the mines are built, they will take them back directly. This time, I will let the Japanese attack us before they see us.
Be frightened by an unprecedented mine war!"
At the Ono Brigade Headquarters in Laiyuan City, three bombers sent to the independent regiment suddenly disappeared without a trace. Not only Ono was frightened, but also the North China Japanese Army Headquarters.
Because, since the North China Japanese Army Command was established, it would be difficult to destroy the imperial aircraft unless the Eighth Route Army directly attacked the airport.
But in front of them, the Eighth Route Army not only destroyed three Imperial bombers through anti-aircraft firepower, but also destroyed three of them, and also lost three outstanding Imperial pilots.
"Bagh Ya Road, who can tell me how the independent regiment has anti-aircraft weapons? Our brigade and group are not equipped with anti-aircraft weapons. How did the Eighth Route Army, which relies on seizures for equipment supplies, have it!" The front army responsible for the loss of three bombers at one time
They all retreated to Ono. Ono, who had suppressed his anger in front of his superiors, could only vent his anger on his subordinates.
"I don't know what my position is, but according to intelligence, in the face of the dive bombing by three bombers of our army, the Eighth Route Army's anti-air firepower was very powerful. In less than half a minute, one of our three planes exploded in the air, and one was seriously injured and crashed.
One crashed on the way back!" The newly appointed intelligence director lowered his head and answered.
You know, at this moment, he was also holding back his anger and had nowhere to vent it.
Bombing the headquarters of the Independence Regiment was originally a good thing, but I didn't expect that the Independence Regiment was so cunning that they actually used this opportunity to almost wipe out the intelligence personnel of the Imperial Army who were lurking in the Independence Regiment.
Although there are still two or three people who have not been exposed, these two or three people are the lowest level soldiers of the independent regiment. The highest position is only a deputy platoon leader, and they have no way of knowing the secrets of the independent regiment's air defense company.
Major General Ono doesn't care about this. As a general with tens of thousands of troops, he only wants results, not the process.
He frowned and ordered: "Baga, I don't care what you do, I want concrete results within five days at most!"
Seeing Ono's resolute face without the slightest hint of negotiation, the Director of the Intelligence Division could only suppress his grievances and replied: "Please rest assured, General, I will definitely give the General a satisfactory answer in five days."
Ono nodded, then turned his attention to the chief of staff next to him.
"Chief of Staff, according to the order of the military headquarters, in one month we will officially launch an attack on the so-called Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area of the Eighth Route Army, and encircle and annihilate the Eighth Route Army in the Wutai area. I want to know how prepared our brigade is!"
"Currently, 1,500 imperial troops have been replenished! If we add another 2,000 troops, our brigade will be fully equipped. The Imperial Association Army has already reached its full strength of 7,000 troops due to the large number of captives added!"
"In addition, a mountain artillery brigade and a field artillery brigade assigned to us by the military headquarters will be in place in ten days according to the order."
"The only problem is replenishing equipment and supplies!"
