The regiment leader was the first to rush out, and then he saw soldiers from the guard company lining up to move boxes into the yard.
There are more than fifty boxes, divided into several groups according to different sizes, and neatly stacked in the yard.
In the direction of the door, there were soldiers moving into the yard in a steady stream.
"Hiss, hiss..." The leader stared at his big eyes, took a breath and shouted, "So many?"
"There are many more outside!" the guard company commander replied.
The political commissar was also frightened by the boxes in the yard. It took him a long time to realize: "Company Commander Zhou, you must know what is in these boxes?"
"Tell me how many good things you brought back in total.
Seeing everyone staring at him, the guard company commander quickly replied: "Regiment commander, political commissar, the one who delivered the weapons to us was the supply company of the second battalion of the garrison regiment. They handed these weapons and ammunition to me and left. As for the weapons and ammunition from
Where they came from, where they came from, I don’t know.”
"I just know that these weapons and ammunition are good things that have not been opened."
"By the way, I have a list here."
"There are three mortars, six heavy machine guns, six grenade launchers, eighteen light machine guns, and 800 rifles."
"The ammunition includes a total of 300 mortar shells, 10,000 heavy machine gun bullets, 3,000 grenades, and 200,000 rifle machine gun bullets."
"In addition, these weapons are all Japanese-style equipment, and the rifles are all brand-new 38-inch caps. None of the guns are off-brand."
The regiment leader was so happy that he almost went crazy. He took three steps and two steps at a time, rushed directly to the weapons and ammunition, picked up a bayonet and started to pry the box.
A long wooden box was quickly opened, and the straw on the surface was lifted. A total of ten Sanba covers that exuded a strong smell of gun oil were neatly placed inside.
The regimental leader picked up a rifle with the flat end in his hand, pulled the bolt, took aim briefly and pulled the trigger.
The unloaded rifle did not go off, but it did not ruin the regimental leader's good mood at all.
He threw it to the chief of staff and shouted: "It's a brand new Sanba Gai, what a great gun!"
"By the way, aren't there mortars and heavy machine guns on the list? Where are they?"
"This is a heavy weapon. Our independent regiment has been fighting here for nearly two years without capturing a single mortar. Today we finally have a cannon that can fire meat."
"Captain, here!" A platoon leader from the guard company walked in carrying a big box.
After prying open the box, an unassembled 81mm caliber mortar was placed inside, which also exuded a strong smell of gun oil.
As he watched, the regiment leader began to sigh: "Political Commissar, from now on, our independent regiment will no longer be short of weapons."
"Even the ammunition can be used to fight several big battles."
The political commissar was as excited as the regimental leader, and he sighed: "Not only is there no shortage, but there is also plenty."
"Come on, follow me into the conference room. Now our independent regiment needs guns, ammunition, and ammunition, and we even have mortars. Whatever you say this time, we must teach the little devils outside the mountains a big lesson and let them
Don’t underestimate our independent group anymore.”
After everyone gathered in the conference room again, the group leader stopped talking nonsense and gave direct orders.
"Each battalion has two hundred and fifty rifles, five light machine guns, and two grenade launchers. After returning, all rifles with smooth rifling and extra rifles will be sent to the regiment headquarters to support local troops."
"Fifty rifles and three light machine guns remain to equip the guard company."
"In addition, as soon as you return home, you will recruit troops for me immediately. Soldiers and cadres who can fire heavy machine guns and fire cannons will all be sent to the regiment headquarters. I will form a heavy machine gun company and a mortar platoon."
"These heavy weapons are great weapons for fighting Japanese invaders on the battlefield. They are used to provide you with fire support. So if you have good soldiers, send them to me. Don't hide them."
The first battalion commander quickly replied: "Don't worry, commander, we all understand this."
The regimental commander pressed his hand, interrupted the other two battalion commanders who wanted to speak, and continued to order.
"The weapons and ammunition are arranged like this, now I will arrange the combat mission."
"All battalions and companies will be dispatched at 12 o'clock tonight to take the initiative to launch attacks on the surrounding Japanese and puppet troops. The specific tasks are as follows."
From the Japanese North China Front Headquarters, until six o'clock in the afternoon, there was still no news from several counties around Yi County.
The chief of staff and the commander could no longer sit still.
The less news there is in Yixian County, the stronger the hidden opponent is and the bigger things he is doing, and the greater the losses to the imperial army will be.
"Your Excellency, Commander, the scouts and intelligence personnel sent to Yixian County from several nearby counties seem to have disappeared. There is no news. There is no news after entering Yixian County. I judge that the Eighth Route Army must have blocked Yixian County, so we can only
You can’t get in or get out.”
"Although the scouts and intelligence personnel are powerful, there are only a few of them. If the Eighth Route Army sets up pocket formations on the only way into Yixian County, they will have no chance to escape if they get in."
"Is there any news from the aviation force?" the commander asked, frowning.
He was very sure that something was wrong in Yi County, but there was no direct evidence.
The infantry was unreliable, so he could only place his hopes on the aviation force.
Speaking of the aircraft, the chief of staff frowned even more: "There is news, but it's very strange."
"The aviation force sent a total of three reconnaissance aircraft into Yixian County this afternoon to conduct low-altitude reconnaissance."
"We searched the entire Yixian County and found no trace of crossfire."
"The military columns parked on the railway were all intact, and were guarded by the Imperial Army and the Imperial Army. Not only did they not evade the reconnaissance planes, they even stepped out of their positions to wave."
"There is no movement inside the county town. It is still under the control of the imperial army."
"No!" the commander said firmly.
"What they saw must have been an illusion deliberately put up by the enemy to confuse us."
"If Yixian is really still in the hands of the imperial army, the reconnaissance troops and intelligence personnel we sent into Yixian will definitely have news back."
"No..." The commander suddenly thought of something and subconsciously exclaimed.
He stared at the chief of staff and asked: "During the period when the roads and railways in Yixian County were paralyzed, did a lot of food and military supplies heading south stop in Yixian County?"
"Hi!" the chief of staff replied with a nod.
"There are thirteen military columns heading south alone. We don't know yet about the grain transport teams taking the road, but there must be many of them."
"There is a shortage of food everywhere in North China. Nearly one-third of the food and materials going south from Peking go to Yi County."
Speaking of this, the chief of staff reacted suddenly, with a frightened expression on his face, and then shouted.
"Sir, if Yi County is really occupied by the Eighth Route Army, these grains and combat supplies will definitely fall into their hands."
"No, there is too much food there, and we must not let the Eighth Route Army transport it back to their base."
"My humble suggestion is to send troops to counterattack Yixian immediately."
"We can't go in now!" The commander still insisted on his initial judgment.
"The enemy's situation is unknown. If the Eighth Route Army is encircling the area for reinforcements, we will definitely suffer heavy losses if we rush in hastily."
"And I believe that the enemy occupying Yixian County has the ability to surround the point and send reinforcements."
"It killed more than 3,000 troops stationed in Yixian County overnight, and there was still time to block the news and set up illusions for our reconnaissance planes to confuse us. They must be very strong and we cannot take risks."
"But the troops can gather around Yixian County. As long as they understand the enemy's situation, they can attack immediately."
"Chief of Staff, go mobilize your troops now."
