Chapter 1349: The Battle of Fengning!

Lu Shan was unwilling to bother Sun Dianying, the "Dongling Thief", from the bottom of his heart. After receiving Boer Shu's own solution to the problem, he was very happy and immediately ordered Boer Shu to lead the convoy to turn towards Chifeng!

At this stage, the convoy wants to return, which is very difficult. It is only a matter of time before the convoy falls, so it is very dangerous for the convoy to continue to stay in Guyuan.

However, the convoy chose to go to Chifeng, and there were two roads to choose from. One was to go east, pass through Fengning, the eid and then to Chifeng, and the other was to go north to Duolun, from Duolun and then to Chifeng!

The two paths have their own advantages and disadvantages.

If you take Fengning Road, the roads are relatively flat and they are all highways, which is undoubtedly very convenient for the fleet.

If you go to Doron, you will be a little farther away, but relatively speaking, there will be very few dangers, and at least you won’t encounter Japanese troops!

The Japanese army would not advance so quickly. After all, they were not iron men. With such high-intensity combat, they also needed to rest and rest. Even if they took Chengde without bloodshed, they would have to rest for at least a day before they could continue to launch an attack!

The convoy is not without combat effectiveness. If a small group of Japanese troops encounter only the possibility of death.

The only thing I worry about is air defense. The threat in the sky is greater than that in the ground. Lu Shan tends to take the safer Duolun route. In fact, it can't get far from Duolun to the paddock.

"Two roads, Mr. Lu means to let us go from Duolun to the paddock, and finally enter Chifeng to meet with the Iron Commander!"

"The second one is to go to Fengning and then to the yard, and to Chifeng, we will also meet with the Iron Commander!"

"It's safer to walk on Duolun. But the road is a little harder to walk on!" said Wang Siping, the leader of the car group. "Walking in Fengning, everything is on the road. Our cars can pass quickly, and we can also replenish some gasoline in Fengning!"

"Well, Fengning originally had a regiment of the 22nd Brigade of the Northeast Army. This regiment has been reorganized by us. Fengning is basically just an empty city, but there is some gasoline inventory in the material warehouse in the city. The Iron Commander arranged a company to guard it. That was left for us!" Boershu explained.

"Captain Wang, is this batch of gasoline necessary?" Bolshu asked. If the team had enough gasoline, he would of course choose a safer route. If the team needed gasoline, it would have to be reconsidered!

"If we just go to Chifeng, our gasoline is enough, but if we want to return to Beiman, our gasoline is not enough!" Wang Siping said.

"Does Chifeng have gasoline reserves?" Han Zhixiang asked.

"I don't know, even if there is reserve, there will not be a lot. Chifeng is stationed in cavalry. There may be gasoline, but the amount is definitely not much!" Bolshu said.

"Since that's the case, then report to the headquarters. We will follow the Fengning road!" Bolshu decided, "Captain Ling, order you to lead 500 cavalrymen to take the lead, go to Fengning, and take over the oil depot!"

"Yes!" Ling Han saluted and quickly left!

"Old Han, what do you think about the Guyuan Self-Defense Corps?" Bolshu asked Han Zhixiang.

"Is the captain worried that taking them on the road would drag us down?" Han Zhixiang understood Bolshu's intentions as soon as he heard this.

"Yes, we either have four wheels or four legs, and they can't keep up with both legs!" Bolshu explained.

"Didn't we seized a lot of war horses from the bandit coalition? We can take everyone away?" Han Zhixiang asked.

"Okay, as long as they don't hold us back!" Bolshu nodded.

"Don't worry, captain, I promise they won't drag the team's hind legs!" Han Zhixiang patted his chest and promised.

"That's good. Get rid of it and prepare to set off. Those who are unwilling to follow the team should not force it. Also, the pensions of soldiers of the Guyuan Self-Defense Corps who have sacrificed must be paid, and the settlement fees of soldiers who are willing to follow us must also be paid!"

"Please rest assured, the captain, I will do this job well!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Old Han!" Bolshu gently patted Han Zhixiang on the shoulder. If he had not been able to do these tedious and meticulous work these days, he would have to do it, and he would have made him dizzy.

"Bolshu, this kid, actually chose to go to Fengning?" Lu Shan was a little surprised when he received a telegram from Bolshu.

"Tie Meng left him some oil supplies in Fengning. I think he must be going for the oil!" Ying Ruoyu said.

"A car is not like a war horse. You can run away after you have enough food. This thing can't run without gasoline!" This reminded Lu Shan of the huge oil mine buried under the black soil.

It has been a year or two for the Japanese to look for oil in China. Finally, they came to a conclusion: China has oil, but it is a poor oil country!

This is a conclusion drawn based on the current "sea oil generation" theory.

China is indeed a "oil-poor" country, but it will take at least seventy or eighty years later. In fact, China has oil underground and its storage capacity is quite large, but it has not been discovered.

Without oil, gasoline, diesel, automobiles, tanks, and planes cannot be refined. The Japanese army later decided to go south, which was due to energy shortage!

Without oil, warships and aircraft could not be driven. In the late World War II, the Japanese army was short of fuel, and the warships could not be driven, and the planes could not be used to exert their combat effectiveness. They were defeated continuously in naval battles, and there was a reason for the shortage of resources!

If the Japanese army knew that there was oil in the northeast and that there were huge oil fields, if they were connected to the Soviet Far East bordering North Manchuria, it might be possible that the Japanese army would choose the strategy of going north!

With oil, gasoline and diesel can be extracted, and there are many derivative products, which can make up for the shortcomings of the Japanese army's resource shortage!

The Japanese army did not need to risk offending the United States, which pursued isolation appeasement, so that it could obtain the oil and materials it needed!

Whether to exploit oil is necessary? Lu Shan has been thinking about this question in his mind. If Dong Kang wants to build tanks, aircraft, or even warships, then the source of power is naturally necessary for oil!

Without oil, how can gasoline and diesel be refined, how can these steel guys move and respond?

The Japanese have been working on coal liquefaction technology for a long time, but unfortunately the technology is immature and the cost is very high. It cannot meet huge needs!

Then you can only do it secretly. It’s not easy to let the Japanese know that at least you have to wait until you have the ability to protect yourself before you can produce on a large scale!

At this stage, the Eastern Anti-Japanese War can only import oil from other countries, mainly Soviet Russia, and other countries are not yet possible.

The Soviet Union’s things are not cheap and the technology is not high. The quality is relatively inferior to that of Europe and the United States, but there is no way, so I can only make do with it!

If it really doesn't work, I will try to help the Soviet Union improve its refining level and exchange technology for their oil!

This is a new idea. You can directly import oil from the Soviet Union, so that Dongkang can build its own refinery factory first, so that the Japanese will not doubt whether Dongkang has found oil in North Manchuria.

First build the refinery, and underground oil can be mined at any time, and put into production and complete seamless connection!

When the battle in Rehe is over, you must make a good summary when you go back. The funds for building a refinery are not small. The stall is now large enough, and any new project needs to be carefully proved.

"The movements of the Japanese army are copied to Bolshu at any time, and first ensure the safety of the convoy!" Lu Shan ordered the confidential Kedao.

"clear!"

With the intelligence support from the headquarters, Bolshu naturally had a lot of courage. The intelligence at the headquarters was much faster and more accurate than the situation reported in Peking!

The material convoy set off from Guyuan on the morning of the 6th. According to the plan, it should enter Fengning at around 4 pm, and Linghan's cavalry regiment would set up a camp there to wait for their arrival!

The campsite is very easy to arrange. The military camp of the 22nd Brigade 2nd Regiment stationed in Fengning was empty, which happened to be used as a temporary garrison for the convoy.

After resting in Fengning for a night and replenishing fuel, they would set off for the yard the next morning. They expected to feel that the yard would meet with the garrison there the next evening, and the convoy would be safe at this time!

If you go to Doron, you will have to feel the yard at least the morning after tomorrow, and there may not be a safe resting place along the way. It will undoubtedly be very hard for the material convoy who has just experienced the war!

In addition to the consideration of oil supply, as well as the consideration of physical strength and mental consumption of personnel, Bolshu decided to go to Fengning, which was not entirely because of his arbitrary behavior!

However, before setting off, Bolshu did not expect that, and Lu Shan did not expect that the Pingquan defender would be defeated so quickly. Rehe coach Tang Yulin also led people to escape from Chengde without a single shot!

Zhang Hanqing also ordered the Luanping defenders not to allow Tang Yulin to enter the pass from the Gubeikou Great Wall!

Tang Yulin forced himself to turn to Chahar, and the transfer station he was going to was Fengning.

Fengning is just an unguarded city now, and Tang Yulin knew it very well, so he thought he could rest in Fengning for a night and continue to escape to Chahar the next day.

But what he didn't expect was that when he brought a huge convoy to Fengning City, he found that the city had been occupied!

"What's going on? Isn't Fengning an empty city?" Tang Yulin got out of the car with a look of fatigue and asked.

"Brother, it seems that there are troops stationed in the city!"

"It's not Japanese, right?"

"The Japanese are not that fast. Judging from their outfits, they seem to be similar to ours?" Tang Yuming said.

"Is it Sun Dianying's troops?"

"Impossible. Sun Dianying's troops have not arrived in Zhangjiakou yet, so why did they appear here?" Tang Yushu said.

"That's the Northwest Army. Song Zheyuan is robbing by fire!" Tang Yulin said gritting his teeth.

"This is possible. Chahar is not as wealthy as I, Rehe. This guy has long coveted the territory of our Rehe!"

"Is this useful now? The Japanese are almost defeating most of the Rehe River. Even if Song Zheyuan takes Fengning, will the Japanese not hit him?" Tang Yulin hummed.

"What the coach of Ge said is, if it was Song Zheyuan's army, could we discuss with him and let us go in and rest for a night. Anyway, we will go to his territory!" Tang Yushu said.

"Old Wu, we are carrying a large amount of treasures. Song Zheyuan's troops are so poor that the soldiers can only fight with big swords. If he knew that we brought so many things, could he let us go?" Tang Yushan coughed. He was in poor health. Although he was in the army, he had been recuperating in Chengde.
