Chapter 654: Mission Impossible (First Update!) )

"How much equipment did the garrison regiment divide for itself?" This is also a question that the commander is most concerned about!

"Not as much as we do!" The chief of staff thought for a moment and replied!

"A line of rifle machine gun bullets, a line of grenades, a line of mortar shells, a line of mountain artillery shells, a line of rifles, a line of machine guns, and then some maintenance equipment!"

"I asked Comrade Li Hao, why don't you share more!"

"Comrade Li Hao's reply to me is: Lingqiu is surrounded by heavy troops of the Japanese puppet army, and the scope of the base area is not large, so we cannot continuously obtain all kinds of raw materials for the production of weapons and ammunition in the base area like our base area in the northwest of Shanxi!"

"Therefore, after the establishment of their arsenal, it mainly focuses on reloading ammunition, repairing and transforming weapons, supplemented by the production of new equipment and ammunition!"

The commander's eyes clearly flashed with appreciation!

He took a deep breath and replied: "I now finally understand why Comrade Li Hao was entrusted with an important task by the headquarters, he has the ability and a view of the overall situation, and he can also do it without being impatient or impatient, and stop in moderation!"

"On the other hand, we are not as good as this young man in this regard!"

"Chief of Staff, compared to the garrison regiment, I think our idea of developing the arsenal is too radical!"

"Although the base area in the northwest of Shanxi is extensive, almost all the raw materials needed for the production of weapons and ammunition can be found! However, the base area in the northwest of Jin Province is not stable, and it may be swept away by the Japanese puppet army at any time! ”

"Directly build a large arsenal, at least one, safety is not guaranteed!"

"Therefore, we should also learn from Comrade Li Hao's idea of developing the arsenal, focusing on reloading ammunition and repairing weapons, supplemented by newly produced weapons!"

"The extra military equipment will be sent directly to Yan'an!"

"There is a large rear, except for the air threat, it is almost impossible for the ground to be attacked by the Japanese puppet army!"

"As for the raw materials, Yan'an can basically get together more than half, and the rest can be sent over from our base in the northwest of Shanxi!"

"It would be more appropriate to build a large-scale arsenal there than we have here!"

"It's so decided, Chief of Staff, you will arrange it, the military equipment we left behind is the same as the garrison regiment, and the extra equipment will be sent directly to Yan'an!"

"Also, Comrade Li Hao is so generous, he gives up his small family for everyone, and we can't be stingy in the northwest base area of Shanxi!"

"Immediately give an order to the commanders of each regiment, and send ten more veterans to the headquarters, and if there is not enough command, prepare three hundred veterans to be sent to the garrison regiment!"

Outside Datong City, a total of 68 cars were all filled with equipment and ready to be shipped except for three empty for standby!

"Commander, all the equipment is installed! We used 200 mules and horses to transport the extra equipment on mountain roads, and we were ready to set off at any time! Hong Linfeng found Li Hao and reported!

"Order the troops to do a good job of concealment!" Li Hao ordered with a serious face!

"We're going to hide here for three more days, and then we'll be back to the base in three days!"

"So long?" Hong Linfeng asked rhetorically with a twisted brow!

Li Hao nodded in affirmation: "Time is a bit long, but for us, three days later is undoubtedly the best opportunity for us to withdraw to the base area!"

"Tomorrow, during the day, the Jin Sui Army will take over Datong City!"

"The day after tomorrow, the devil reinforcements will arrive here!"

"The Japanese army will definitely not watch Datong City be occupied by the Jin Sui army!"

"So after the devil arrives here, he will definitely attack Datong with all his might, and the two sides will definitely fight a big battle outside Datong City to decide the final ownership of Datong City!"

"And what we have to do is to take advantage of the fact that this big war is in full swing, and the Japanese puppet army has no time to take care of it in time, and use one night to take the road and directly send the military equipment of these sixty-eight cars back to the base area!"

"It can't be!"

Hong Linfeng subconsciously retorted!

Directly found a map and spread it in front of Li Hao, and analyzed it with a serious face: "This is a military map that we captured at the Datong Garrison Headquarters of the Japanese Army, which clearly marks the deployment of the Japanese puppet army on the road from Datong to Lingqiu!"

"I studied just now, on a total of 165 kilometers of road, the Japanese puppet army has arranged a total of two strongholds and three checkpoints!"

"A stronghold garrison has a full-fledged infantry squadron, and a stronghold garrison has a full-fledged infantry squad! Each of the three outposts garrisoned a combat detachment to an infantry squad! ”

"As soon as our convoy appears, the devil will definitely know, and then dispatch heavy troops to encircle and intercept our convoy!"

"Also, this highway has to pass through a county seat, and there is at least one brigade of devil soldiers in this county!"

"As long as the convoy is exposed, the little devils in the county will send troops to surround our convoy!"

"Sixty-eight cars are loaded with military equipment, and there are no extra cars to transport troops!"

"This means that we will not have more than one company to protect the convoy, and at most one more company of cavalry will be added!"

"Once you encounter the devil's encirclement and interception, this little force will not even have a chance to resist the devil's encirclement and interception!"

Seeing Hong Linfeng's brows furrowing deeper and deeper, Li Hao no longer concealed it!

"Don't worry, Chief of Staff, I have a way to deal with these strongholds and outposts!"

"Ensure that the convoy returns safely to the base!"

"You immediately notify all the battalion and company commanders to come to me to report that there is a task for them!"

"Whether the convoy and so much equipment can safely return to the base area, their role is crucial!"

Inside the small tent, more than a dozen people crowded it tightly, and they all looked at Li Hao, their eyes lit up!

"Comrades, long story short!" Li Hao said straight to the point!

"We only have one task next, to safely return the sixty-eight trucks of military equipment we grabbed from Datong City to the base area!"

"As long as we can take down every stronghold and outpost with lightning speed before the convoy arrives at each stronghold and outpost, and kill the little devils inside, our convoy can pass through these strongholds and outposts smoothly, and then return to the base area safely!"

"Commander, how are we going to fight!" Huang Sheng, the commander of the third battalion, couldn't help but ask first!

Li Hao pointed to the first stronghold on the map and analyzed: "The convoy will set off at eight o'clock in the evening, and it will arrive at this stronghold at ten o'clock!" ”

"According to intelligence, the Japanese puppet army has increased the strength of this stronghold to three hundred, including more than a hundred devils and two companies of the puppet army!"

"Fortified with fortified pillboxes and turrets, armed with heavy machine guns and mortars!"

"I decided to transfer a battalion, an artillery company, a mountain artillery, and three mortars to secretly lurk around the stronghold, launch an attack at half past nine in the evening of the same day, solve the battle within half an hour, take the stronghold, clear the road, and ensure that the convoy passes through the stronghold smoothly, and then the troops will withdraw directly into the forest and retreat by mountain road!"

"The second pass is an outpost, the total strength of the Japanese puppet army is more than 60 people, the second battalion, four companies and three mortars of the artillery company are lurking over, launch an attack at ten o'clock in the morning, and end the battle within ten minutes!"

"There are no accidents, and if the convoy passes through the first stronghold on time, the convoy will pass this post at 20 a.m!"

"Six companies with three mortars to attack the second outpost! Attack at 2:30 a.m. and end the battle in ten minutes! ”

"Seven companies with three mortars to attack the third post, attack at four o'clock in the morning, and end the battle in the same ten minutes!"

"Three battalions plus artillery companies, one mountain artillery, three mortars, attack the last stronghold at five o'clock in the morning, end the battle within half an hour, there will be an independent battalion sent by the political commissar to respond!"

"As long as we take this stronghold, we will be safe, and the convoy will be able to return to the base area smoothly!"
