North China, an inconspicuous battlefield.

There are no Japanese troops, only puppet troops, and it is a small stronghold.

The soldiers from the New Second Brigade rushed forward with artillery fire. The remaining puppet troops hurriedly raised their hands to surrender.

Behind the stronghold is the base camp of the puppet army. It is full of religions and chaos.

The Eighth Route Army soldiers searched everywhere vigilantly.

Suddenly, their eyes flashed.

"Company Commander!"

"Company Commander!"

Various exclamations came.

The company commander hurriedly ran over with a mullet gun.

I thought something big happened, but when I looked up, I was stunned.

Good guy, what is that?

It seems like a cannon?

It's not an ordinary mountain cannon. It's a large caliber artillery.

The cannon was almost as thick as a man! Such a big cannon! There was also a truck next to it!

Could it be that this is the legendary howitzer?

It is said that there are brothers.

But they haven't seen it with their own eyes.

If it is true, then it will be developed.

"Company Commander!"

"Company Commander!"

"There are still here!"

"There are still here!"

Various screams came from other places.

However, many of the same cannons were found, with a total of five and a large number of shells.

Each cannon has two trucks. One is responsible for traction of the cannon and the other is responsible for transporting the shells.

According to rough statistics, each gun is equipped with two hundred shells.

Not bad.

Not bad.

The company commander hurriedly sent someone to report to the battalion commander.

At the beginning, the battalion commander didn't believe it. He thought it was the soldiers who made a mistake.

This is the stronghold of the puppet army! How could there be cannons? Mortars are not good. Czech light machine guns are the most advanced weapons of the puppet army.

"Battery Commander, really!"

"Battery Commander, if you don't believe me, go and see it."

The warrior who reported the message swears to be true.

The battalion commander came in half belief and half doubt. After watching, he slapped his thigh hard.

Oh My God!

It's actually true!

There are really five large caliber heavy artillery!

I hurriedly sent someone to report to the team leader.

The group leader rode his horse in a hurry. After watching it, he slapped his thighs.

God!

This is a howitzer!

The inscription on it clearly states the words 122, etc.

There are quite a few words they can't understand. But they can probably guess some of them. This is a 122mm caliber heavy artillery.

Other specific details need professional artillery to identify them.

The bold guess may be howitzers.

He hurriedly called the commander of the new Second Brigade Ding Wei.

"What?"

"Howitzer?"

Ding Wei, who was chatting with Li Yunlong and the others, was stunned.

His own troops actually seized five howitzers?

It was confirmed by the Chief of Staff that it was the 122mm howitzer.

This chief of staff has seen the 122mm howitzer from the New First Brigade. He will never admit his mistake.

"Old Ding, are you rich?" Li Yunlong said with a smile.

"I'm really rich." Ding Wei nodded, "I, Ding, now I have a twelve cent howitzer."

"Where did you get it?" Kong Jie asked hurriedly.

"Seither captured." Ding Wei's lips curled up, "Old Li, I'm not jealous of you now."

"But I'm jealous!" Kong Jie was anxious, "Tell me how it was seized. Which Japanese invaders' troops were dealt with?"

"It's not the Japanese invaders, it's the puppet army. It's just a small stronghold."

"What?"

"Kong Erlangzi, you can also burn a few fires, maybe you will gain something."

"Treasure the puppet army?"

"What do you care about? Let's talk about it if there are dates or not. What if there are one?"

"OK!"

Kong Jie really went back to deploy immediately.

The New First Brigade has heavy artillery, and the New Second Brigade also has heavy artillery. But the Independent Brigade does not have it.

That certainly won't work.

Must find a way.

There must be.

...

Hanyang.

Longfeng Restaurant.

Compared with Hankou and Wuchang, Hanyang is relatively remote.

There were not many Japanese invaders here. Most of the affairs were left to the Anqing Association to handle.

On the way, Fang Ziyu introduced Yang Yue in detail the situation of the Anqinghui.

"This Longfeng Restaurant is one of the strongholds of Anqinghui." Fang Ziyu whispered, "It belongs to Li Shouquan, the senior manager of Anqinghui."

After a pause, she continued to introduce, "There are two leaders in the Anqing Association in central China, one is Li Shouquan and the other is Zhang Guowei. Li Shouquan is in Hankou and Zhang Guowei is in Wuchang. The two are clearly separated. The well water does not interfere with the river water. However, Hanyang's jurisdiction has always been entangled, so there are often some internal struggles. The Japanese also deliberately indulge this matter."

"I understand." Yang Yue nodded.

The Japanese do not trust the Chinese. It is impossible to unite the Chinese.

The Anqinghui was organized by the Wang Puppet Government and was under the command of Ding Mo Estate, Minister of the Social Affairs Department of the Wang Puppet Government.

Ding Moh Estate is a big traitor. But the Japanese do not fully trust it. In addition, they have their own confidants.

“Where is our goal?”

"We need to catch Zhang Guowei or Li Shouquan."

"Catch it alive?"

"Why do you ask for confession if you beaten to death?"

"What if they refuse to confess?"

"Do you think they are Japanese devils? Would you rather die than surrender?"
