Chapter three hundred and sixty-ninth Temple Shouyi concern
The logistics office is busier than ever during this period.
Many division commanders who are fighting abroad rarely meet in the logistics department these days.
Surprisingly, the first thing they exchanged after they met was not how many Japs they had killed or injured on the battlefield, but how many bullets they had exchanged for their return.
"Old Zhang, I just knocked you down three days ago and came to the logistics office to exchange for 20,000 bullets. It made me jealous for a while. Why are you here again today, and you brought so many bullet casings?
There were more last time!" A leader of the third division asked with an envious expression when he saw his old comrades from the fourth division.
"Hey!" Captain Zhang had a very proud smile on his face.
"Old Li, it's not my fault, but it's Lao Zhang's fault. I was very lucky. The day after I sent the bullets back, the devils from the county sent out an infantry squadron and a battalion of puppet troops to sweep out."
"In the past, we had no ammunition and no confidence to fight. Facing so many Japanese and puppet troops, we could only use guerrilla warfare to make small troubles!"
"This time, I suddenly had 20,000 rounds of ammunition in my hand, which gave me enough confidence to ambush them!"
"In the end, nearly two hundred little Japs only managed to escape into less than one squad. The puppet troops were completely wiped out and more than two hundred were captured. The captured equipment and ammunition allowed me to expand the company by two more companies!"
"The bullets I used on the battlefield plus the bullets consumed by the Japanese and puppet troops, a total of nearly 30,000 bullet casings were found. I thought about changing to bullets early, maybe I could ambush the Japanese after they swept away the troops, and then
I rushed here early in the morning and asked the political commissar to look after my house and keep an eye on the county seat!"
The envious expression on Captain Li's face became even stronger.
However, due to envy, Captain Li still saw the opportunity at a glance, and then pulled Captain Zhang and asked.
"Lao Zhang, please tell me in more detail as possible how to fight. After I go back, I will also follow this method to deal with the Japanese in my defense zone!"
Commander Zhang did not hide anything and answered readily: "I transferred two main battalions, and each soldier was equipped with twenty rounds of ammunition. Then all the machine guns available in the regiment were used, and each machine gun was equipped with three hundred rounds of ammunition. Moreover,
An order was given to the machine gunner. As long as the battle is not over, the machine gun fire cannot be interrupted."
"Didn't the military region allocate landmines to us? I took out 20 landmines at a time and gave the Japanese more than five consecutive mines!"
"When the Japanese and puppet troops entered the ambush circle, they changed from the previous three-shot and bayonet tactics to directly beating them with firepower!"
"Twenty landmines, a dozen light machine guns, and five to six hundred rifles were fired at the same time, and the firepower was non-stop. In the ambush circle, whether they were Japanese soldiers or puppet troops, they were instantly blinded."
"Especially the Japs, they thought they were ambushed by one or two of our regiments. After being attacked, they didn't even think about counterattack and just broke through backwards!"
"I didn't let the troops fight with the Japanese who broke out. I blocked them for a few minutes and then let them go. Guess what happened in the end!"
Captain Li's eyes had already shot out two scorching rays of light. He stared at him and asked: "Lao Zhang, when did you become such a mother-in-law? Tell me the result quickly!"
"The result is very simple. The entire ambush battle ended in only five minutes. I lost no more than two platoons, and less than half of the soldiers died!!"
"More than a hundred Japanese were eliminated, more than 200 Imperial Army soldiers were captured, more than 360 rifles of various types were seized, and six machine guns were also seized. Needless to say, the number of bullets was no less than 25,000
The number of rounds not only made up for the troops' trenches in the battle, but also provided nearly 15,000 more rounds!"
"As for these bullet casings, if they were replaced with bullets, they would be nearly 15,000 rounds!"
"I have led soldiers for such a long time, and the Japanese have fought a lot. It can be said that this is the most efficient battle I have fought!"
In a small-scale ambush battle, nearly 15,000 rounds of ammunition were fired in the trenches. If he put it on himself, the casualties would definitely be smaller, Captain Li thought to himself.
However, what Captain Li is focused on is not how to fight, but the final harvest.
Staring at Captain Zhang, he continued to ask: "In other words, you used fifteen thousand rounds of ammunition to not only get back three to four hundred guns, six light machine guns, and more than two hundred prisoners, but also a total of more than fifty thousand
Fire bullets!”
"Not bad," Captain Zhang confirmed.
"This is the confidence the troops have after they have bullets. Without the 20,000 rounds of bullets exchanged from the military region, I would not dare to fight this battle no matter how courageous I am!"
"I understand! I will do the same when I get back!" Captain Li shouted excitedly.
Wang Ping did not expect that the arsenal he established could have such a big impact on the entire military region after being able to reload bullets on a large scale.
After many troops had bullets in their hands, they no longer defended passively and began to choose to take the initiative.
In just ten days, with the military district headquarters as the center, the seven or eight infantry regiments that were the first to use reloaded bullets fought more than a dozen small-scale annihilation battles, wiping out nearly a thousand Japanese troops.
Faced with the fact that a large number of squadron-sized imperial troops were ambushed and quickly eliminated by the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese North China Front Army Headquarters also began to pay attention.
Originally, the entire squadron-sized imperial army was completely destroyed, and it was impossible to attract the attention of Juichi Terauchi.
However, seven or eight infantry squadrons suffered heavy losses in a row, and five of them were completely wiped out. The total of these annihilation battles one after another was enough to attract the attention and attention of Commander Juichi Terauchi.
"Bagh Ya Road! Who can tell me what is going on? More than a thousand heroic imperial troops were all shattered in just ten days. On the southern battlefield, the imperial army could not lose so much even in a large-scale battle.
Imperial Army!" Staring at the subordinates in front of him, Terauchi Shouichi cursed loudly without reservation!
"Commander, please calm down! According to the report of the Imperial Army who escaped back, the Eighth Route Army that ambushed them changed their previous combat style. After the battle started, they directly used firepower to kill and injure the Imperial Army in large numbers, regardless of the consumption of bullets. The warriors who were ambushed could not even survive.
There’s no chance to fight back!” the intelligence staff member replied with his head lowered!
"We infer that Tubal Road must have obtained a large amount of supplies of materials and ammunition from somewhere, and then changed its previous combat style of stabbing after three rounds of bullets. Otherwise, an infantry squadron of the Imperial Army could have fought against a Tubal Road regiment on a frontal battlefield.
!”
"Baga, now that you know the reason, why don't you go and investigate! The Tubal Road, which is short of guns and ammunition, has already made it difficult for the North China Front Army. If they really have sufficient ammunition supplies, even if they cannot bring a devastating blow to the North China Front Army, then
It can also bring greater disaster to the imperial army than before!" Terauchi Shouichi frowned and cursed mercilessly.
"Hi! I have ordered the intelligence department to start investigating this matter! Commander, please rest assured!" the intelligence staff member quickly replied.
"Yo Xi!" Terauchi Shouichi's solemn expression finally looked much better.
The order continued: "Order our troops stationed within the scope of activity on Tubal Road. Until the headquarters resolves this matter, imperial troops below the size of a squadron are prohibited from entering the Tubal Road base area for raids!"
"From now on, I don't want to hear any more news about the squadron-sized imperial army being wiped out by Tubal Road!"
After the order from Shouichi in the temple was issued, the security in the base area immediately improved a lot. This was a result that Wang Ping and even Commander Nie had not expected.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the military region issued orders to resume and expand production, conduct large-scale troop training, and strengthen the combat effectiveness of the troops.
Wang Ping doesn't care about this, and he doesn't have the experience to care about it.
After reporting the news that the arsenal was established and began producing reloaded bullets, Wang Ping did not expect that the commander-in-chief in Yan'an would personally
