Chapter 707 Unfunded business!

"Captain, I heard it right! Can we really exchange artillery shells for the military exercises we performed today with the national rescue?" The artillery battalion commander was excited, looking at the regiment commander with anticipation, for fear that he would have heard it wrong.

The three main battalion commanders also heard the light and looked at Zhou Cheng together.

Although they cannot use mountain artillery shells directly, these shells can bring them great benefits.

Not to mention the distance, just talk about the attack battle in front of you.

In case the main battalion encounters any difficult bones in combat, the artillery battalion will provide them with artillery fire support at any time.

Unlike when ammunition was scarce, the artillery battalion required the approval of the regiment commander and political commissar.

The three main battalions battalions commanders are particularly looking forward to the artillery battalion having enough shells so that they can call for artillery fire support at any time on the battlefield!

The leader of the regiment answered very affirmatively: "It can definitely be replaced! As long as we perform the next play according to the script, we can harvest at least two thousand shells. It will also make the Japanese and puppet troops along the railway have the illusion that all the main forces of the only regiment will return to the base area, and induce them to take the initiative to attack, and we will have the opportunity to eliminate them in the movement!"

While he was about to continue speaking, the guard company commander suddenly appeared at the command department: "Report to the commander, there is a person outside who claims to be your old friend looking for you, saying that there is an emergency and you need to report it to you in person!"

The regiment commander knew that Wang Tieshan, who was contacting him last night, was coming again, and immediately ordered: "Take him over quickly, you four battalion commanders stay, and the others will go out first. The guard company is responsible for the command center to guard, and no one is allowed to approach within 30 meters of the surrounding area!"

Wang Tieshan walked into the war room and saw four strange faces with bright eyes, and immediately looked at the Du group leader.

The regiment commander reacted quickly and immediately pointed at them and explained: "Battlefield Commander Wang, they are four battalion commanders of the Unique Regiment. I have told them about the cooperation between the National Rescue Army and the Unique Regiment, so we don't need to avoid them in the next conversation!"

"If you say there is no problem, then there will be no problem!" The vigilance on Wang Tieshan's face disappeared instantly, and he quickly took out a letter that Zhou Cheng had just written to introduce.

"We cooperated very well today and had a very smooth action. The Japanese did not notice anything. They had ordered the nearby Japanese and puppet troops to supplement weapons and ammunition for the National Salvation Army. Reduce the shells actually consumed by both sides on the battlefield, and at least 2,500 shells can be left!"

"There is another unexpected gain: after the artillery battle we performed, our regiment commander deliberately let the Japanese see the illusion of the National Salvation Army losing six artillery pieces. He originally wanted to take the opportunity to weaken the troops' offensive tomorrow and delay time. As a result, in order to force the Unique Regiment to draw more troops from the railway line to return to the base area, he promised to supplement all the artillery we lost in the artillery battle."

"So today's operation is still in vain for two large-caliber mortars, three mountain cannons, and one field cannon."

"The regiment commander said that these artillery are half of you!"

"In order to get more weapons and ammunition from the Japanese, the regiment commander hopes that the Unique regiment will build a few more blocking positions in the back tonight. Tomorrow we will continue to act like today. When encountering blocking positions, we will use artillery shells to open the way. If possible, we will strive to have two more artillery battles between the two sides, and let the Japanese add more mountain cannons and mortars to us!"

As soon as Wang Tieshan left the front command of the Unit Regiment, the artillery battalion commander jumped up from the ground because of excitement.

"Captain, I believe now that I can change the shells when acting!"

"We can get half of the two thousand five hundred mountain cannon shells, and we can get 1,250 rounds, and we can still get two or three cannons. This is definitely a pie that falls from the sky, and it's so amazing!"

"I suggest that we ask the Eighth Route Army for mountain cannons and large caliber mortars, preferably mortars!"

"Although its range is not as good as a mountain cannon, the explosion power of the shell is very high. On the field battlefield, a shell hits the enemy, with a lethality of no less than the 105mm caliber howitzer equipped by the Japanese."

"If we can equip two doors and deal with Japanese field infantry, one shot can at least kill them one field infantry team!"

The regiment commander and the three infantry battalions all took a breath. They were shocked by the introduction of the artillery battalion commander and asked resignedly: "The heavy mortar really has such great power?"

The artillery battalion commander answered very affirmatively: "It's only big or small. When I was acting just now, the heavy mortar used to save the country was used to save the country. It was 120 mm caliber, the barrel was about two meters long, and a shell weighed more than ten kilograms, and the effective range was more than four kilometers!"

"If it explodes on the flat ground, a shell can explode a huge crater more than one meter deep!"

"With the bombing point within ten meters, even if the enemy is lying on the ground and hiding in the trenches, the shock wave generated by the shell explosion can still shake people to death, and if it is a little further away, it can also damage them. In addition, the damage caused by the shell fragments to the enemy, the effective killing of a shell is definitely more than thirty meters."

"If the Japanese and puppet troops were concentrated enough, there would be few Japanese devils who could kill a small group of such a shell."

The regiment commander immediately made a decision: "Then ask the National Savior Army to ask for large-caliber mortars. It just so happens that the Japanese army wants to add two doors to them, just give them to us!"

"You have heard what Captain Wang said just now. As long as we perform the next play according to the script, we can exchange for more weapons and ammunition."

"But you have no chance. When it gets dark, when the guerrillas and local troops arrive, you will change into guerrilla uniforms and return to the railway line to lurk near the railway line. Each battalion will leave a platoon of troops to organize and manage local troops, so that they can perform more seriously, so don't let the Japanese and puppet troops see anything!"

"The artillery battalion left a real mountain cannon and a real infantry cannon. In conjunction with the military artillery training of national salvation, all other artillery were replaced with fake cannons made of wood, and all the remaining real cannons were secretly sent to the railway to lurk along the railway!

At the headquarters of the National Salvation Army, Major Panasonic and his two subordinates were guarding the high ground next to the station. From time to time, they raised their telescopes to look at the road ahead, and were very anxious.

It is five o'clock in the afternoon, and the military headquarters promised to replenish the weapons and ammunition of the National Rescue Army.

It will be dark for more than an hour, and the National Salvation Army will lose the last chance to take down the third line of defense of the only regiment today.

Major Panasonic was very anxious and especially hoped that the ammunition supply would be in place now, so that the National Rescue Army would have the last hour of attack time. As long as the speed was fast enough, the battle would be able to end before dark.

What disappointed him was that by 5:30 pm, there was no sign of the baggage team at the end of the road.

Even if the military headquarters sends ammunition here at this moment and reduces the time the troops receive and distribute ammunition, they will have no extra time to attack the third line of defense of the Unique Regiment.

At about six o'clock, a team of soldiers finally appeared at the end of the road.

Holding a rifle and a light machine gun, he walked towards him with a vigilant look on his face.

After moving forward about two hundred meters, a large cart full of ammunition appeared, with a total of fifty vehicles, and a long convoy stretched for nearly two kilometers.

"You go and notify Captain Zhou immediately. We have arrived to replenish the weapons and ammunition of the National Rescue Army, and let him send someone to receive it immediately!"

When Zhou Cheng led his men to the gate of the station, Major Panasonic had already obtained the list of weapons and ammunition transported by the baggage team. When he saw Zhou Cheng walking towards him, he immediately introduced: "Captain Zhou, the military department brought the six artillery that promised to supplement you. It took more than an hour to go on the road, otherwise they would arrive at around 4 o'clock in the afternoon, and we would also have the opportunity to take the front blocking position before dark."

"It's too late now, so we can only collect ammunition and replenish supplies first, and then launch an attack on the Eighth Route Army on the defense line tomorrow."

The script that Zhou Cheng and Duyituan discussed with him will also attack again tomorrow.

After hearing the explanation from Major Panasonic, he nodded without hesitation: "Then launch an attack early tomorrow morning. Let's see how many good things your army compensates our national rescue army!"

While speaking, Zhou Cheng walked directly towards a large cart and lifted the tarp cloth hard.

There were shell boxes piled up on it, and Matsushita immediately introduced: "This car is full of shells, one box of three shells, a total of forty boxes!"

"I have a detailed list of ammunition supplies here. Please take a look at Captain Zhou!"

Zhou Cheng was so kind that he didn't say anything. He started to look after he caught the telegram.

In just a few seconds, the corners of my mouth slightly raised, revealing a smile from the bottom of my heart.

The number of weapons and ammunition on the list far exceeded the estimate, and a total of 5,000 yuan was sent.

Seeing Zhou Cheng being scared by the numbers on the list, Major Panasonic explained like he was showing his merits: "Captain Zhou, the military headquarters has listened to your opinions in the afternoon!"

"Instead of letting the troops wait for ammunition to attack the Universe and waste a lot of time, it is better to give you ammunition in advance and let the troops attack forward without giving the Universe any chance to breathe."

"So the military headquarters added two thousand shells and one hundred thousand bullets to the National Salvation Army!"

Zhou Zhima pretended to be very happy: "Okay, with these ammunitions, we will be able to fight a big battle with the only group tomorrow. It's great!"

At one o'clock in the morning, the commander of the Du Yi Group who was sleeping suddenly was called by the guards. When he opened his eyes, he saw the first battalion commander staring at him with excitement.

Before the leader could sit up, he reported excitedly: "Captain, Company 1 and 2 are back!"

"You are right. Not only did they come back, but they also brought back a lot of weapons and ammunition!"

"I have gathered the equipment they brought back together. There are a total of 180 mountain cannon shells, forty 38 large covers, two crooked handles, forty 40,000 machine gun bullets, and ten thousand heavy machine gun bullets."

"The company commander of the Second Company also reported that this is only a part of the weapons and ammunition. Because it is inconvenient to carry, most of the ammunition handed over to them by the National Salvation Army is hidden in a ravine. There are nearly two thousand cannon shells alone, and people can be sent to pull them back at any time!"

The regiment commander stood up from the bed excitedly and ordered anxiously: "What are you waiting for? Arrange the troops to pull them immediately, especially the shells, and a lot of them will be transported back to me. Then you three infantry battalions will help the artillery battalion to send all the shells and artillery to hide them along the railway!"

"I want to use them to deal with the enemies along the railway and severely damage thousands of Japanese and puppet troops there!"
