In August 1943, the transfer work of Yangcun Houshan Arsenal began.
According to reliable information received by the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, the Japanese will soon launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Japanese base. Judging from the information obtained from various sources, the Japanese have mobilized a large number of troops for this encirclement and suppression campaign.
Among them, the Japanese troops around the 129th Division showed signs of mobilization and assembly. The Japanese also understood that large-scale troop mobilization could not hide from the attention of the Eighth Route Army, and they did not do too much to cover it up.
In the eyes of the Japanese, the Eighth Route Army has developed well up to now, but it is not yet a sufficient threat to them. As for the defeat in the battle with the Eighth Route Army some time ago, the Japanese attributed it to the deployment of too many troops in the Pacific battlefield.
After this period of rest and recuperation, as well as the deterioration of the situation on the Pacific battlefield, the Japanese wanted to stabilize the situation on the Chinese battlefield. On the frontal battlefield, the Japanese army slowed down its advance.
This made the Eighth Route Army troops active in the Japs-occupied areas a thorn in the side of the Japs. The failure of previous counter-encirclement and suppression campaigns made the Japs deeply aware of the threat of the Eighth Route Army troops. Therefore, this time the Japs' North China Front Army Commander Okamura Neiji paid special attention to the fight against the Japanese base areas.
of raids and sieges.
"Damn it, I really can't bear it. Our independent regiment finally got a good thing, and now it has to be taken away by the division headquarters."
"Alas, it's too difficult for me, Old Li!" Li Yunlong looked at the comrades dismantling equipment and preparing to move, with deep reluctance on his face. The combat effectiveness of his independent regiment was very strong, so he continued the bullet production line.
There won't be any problem if you put it here.
Unfortunately, even if Li Yunlong made a guarantee to the division headquarters, he could not stop the division headquarters from wanting to transfer the bullet production line. There is no way. Who made this bullet production line so important?
In just a few months, the bullet production line produced millions of rounds of bullets, greatly easing the tight ammunition situation of various units of the 129th Division.
It's just that the 129th Division has so many troops, not many of them are organized. But don't forget that the 129th Division has many unorganized troops like the Independent Regiment. It is even said that such unorganized troops account for the majority.
Under such circumstances, millions of bullets were distributed to various troops, but not much. At most, it could make the soldiers more comfortable when fighting the Japanese.
"Okay, Lao Li, don't we have enough ammunition for our independent regiment? During this period, didn't you organize the soldiers to conduct multiple live-fire trainings? Compared with our independent regiment, other troops are not so generous." Zhao Gang
Couldn't help but say.
In Zhao Gang's view, Li Yunlong was just not satisfied. The bullet production line was established in the mountains behind Yangcun, which gave the independent regiment a lot of benefits. At least there would be no problems with the soldiers' daily live-fire training.
But even so, Li Yunlong was still not satisfied and wanted more, which in Zhao Gang's opinion was completely unnecessary. After all, fighting the Japanese was not only a matter of the independent regiment, but also of other brother units.
Besides, if the independent regiment really dares to swallow all the ammunition, then the division commander and brigade commander will definitely not be able to spare this guy Li Yunlong.
"Old Zhao, I just complained a few words, but I didn't say that I really wanted to keep the bullet production line."
"The bullet production line is nothing in my eyes. If I don't want to have roots, I should also follow the bullet production line. Aren't I a little reluctant to let it go?" Li Yunlong was a little angry. Is he, Old Li, the kind of person who doesn't understand the general situation?
Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong in surprise, but he did not expect that Li Yunlong would say this. Thinking that Genzi was likely to leave with the bullet production line, he somewhat understood Li Yunlong's thoughts. Zhao Gang did not want Liu Gen to leave, but he knew that he wanted to
It is impossible for Liu Gen to stay in the independent group. There are more important things that Liu Gen needs to do.
What's more, once the Japanese raids begin, no one knows what will happen. Even if the soldiers of the independent regiment have greatly improved their combat effectiveness after conducting live-fire training, they still cannot guarantee Liu Gen's life safety. No matter what
From which point of view, it is the best choice for Liu Gen to follow the bullet production line transfer.
Not far away, Liu Gen walked quickly. After receiving the order to move the bullet production line, he sat here and carried out the relevant transfer work. In order to avoid the waste of raw materials, Liu Gen also specially organized his comrades to carry out the last
Ammunition production, and strive not to leave anything to the Japanese.
"Regiment leader, political commissar, why are you two here? How is the situation of the independent regiment? It should be heading to the front line, right?" Liu Gen asked with some confusion when he came to Li Yunlong and the other two.
The Independent Regiment has a very strong fighting capacity and is ranked among the best in the entire 129th Division. It is also because of this that when faced with the Japanese encirclement and suppression, the Independent Regiment will be on the front line of counter-encirclement and suppression. With Li Yunlong here, Liu Gen has a strong influence on the Independent Regiment.
There is not much to worry about. Coupled with the recent promotion of the independent regiment, putting them on the front line of anti-encirclement and suppression is undoubtedly the best choice.
If it weren't for the division headquarters ordering Liu Gen to move along with the bullet production line, then Liu Gen would definitely choose to stay in the independent regiment and fight the Japanese on the front line. Unfortunately, the division headquarters did not agree with Liu Gen's idea of going to the front line, so he could only transfer to
Stay behind to avoid any danger.
However, with the Japs' actions this time, even if they stay in the rear, they may not be safe enough.
"You're leaving soon, so of course we have to come see you off."
"The Independent Regiment has received an order from the brigade headquarters and will soon go to the front line of the anti-encirclement and suppression campaign to give the Japanese encirclement and suppression troops a head-on blow! Genzi, do you want anything? I'll get it for you from the Japanese!" Li Yunlong smiled.
He said, not taking the Japanese encirclement and suppression into consideration at all.
Since the opening of the anti-Japanese base area, Li Yunlong did not know how many times the Japanese siege and suppression had been carried out. This time the Japanese siege and suppression caused a lot of noise, but Li Yunlong did not think that the Japanese siege and suppression could have much effect! Facts have proved that even if the Japanese siege and suppression continues,
After launching the encirclement and suppression campaign, the Eighth Route Army troops still successfully developed and continued to grow.
"Captain, I don't need anything. Please pay attention to your safety!"
"I hope that after the siege, we can still drink together. At that time, I will serve sweet potatoes." Liu Gen said solemnly.
The Japanese's counter-encirclement and suppression campaign this time is not simple. Liu Gen does not hope that Li Yunlong and the others will have any problems. However, the situation on the battlefield is constantly changing and no one can guarantee that they will not have any problems. Liu Gen can only hope that Li Yunlong can give full play to his abilities.
With his commanding ability, he successfully led the independent regiment through the Japanese siege.
"Regiment leader, political commissar, follow me." Thinking of the weapons and ammunition produced by the arsenal with the last batch of raw materials, Liu Gen was ready to leave these things to the independent regiment.
Now that all the troops have been mobilized, even if Liu Gen wants to send these weapons and equipment to other troops, he does not have so much time. It is better to directly give these weapons and equipment to the independent regiment, which can also add some combat points to the independent regiment.
