The plaque of the Japanese brigade headquarters in Datong has been smashed by the soldiers and replaced with the plaque of the siege headquarters of the Eighth Route Army.

Chief of Staff Zhou stood in the luxurious war room and sighed.

I didn't expect that one day I would be able to stand at the headquarters of the Japanese brigade with the sword of the commander of the Japanese brigade in front of him.

"Report to the chief, our results in Datong City have been summarized!" The commander of the twelfth regiment rushed in like the wind and reported with a smile on his face.

"Tell me!" Staff Officer Zhou was looking forward to asking.

The commander of the 12th Regiment took out an account book and reported as he flipped through it: "After deducting the temporary replenishment of troops during the offensive of various combat units, we also captured three mortars, four heavy machine guns, 19 light machine guns, and 1,359 rifles in the street fighting battlefield. ”

"There are five warehouses that were not blown up by the Japanese puppet army, two grain depots, one material warehouse, and two ammunition depots."

"It's full of weapons, ammunition and food supplies we need, and the exact amount is being counted, but I went to two ammunition depots to take a look, and the contents can definitely be described as dazzling."

"Brand new rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, all in boxes, neatly stacked in warehouses."

"I also saw mortars and mountain guns, neatly mounted on the ground, pulled out and ready to use."

"I asked the commander of a puppet army battalion who was captured, and according to him, the mountain artillery was used by the Japanese army to form a mountain artillery brigade, because the artillery was not yet in place, and the equipment was temporarily sealed in the warehouse."

"There are also some mountain artillery pieces that were thrown outside the city after the defeat of the Jin Sui army in the last attack on Datong and did not have time to take them away, adding up to a total of sixteen."

"There are also two calibers of mortars: one is the 81 mm caliber equipped by the devils themselves, and the other is the captured Jin Sui army, which originally had 46 guns, and some were transferred during the battle to defend the city, and there are 32 left."

"If all these artillery pieces are transported back, we will definitely be able to form a veritable artillery regiment in the northwest base area of Shanxi."

"Not to mention the ammunition, which was piled up in warehouses, shells, grenades, bullets, explosives...... All the ammunition we need can be found inside. ”

The report of his subordinates did not disappoint Chief of Staff Zhou.

After carefully reading the account books in his hand, he was very satisfied with the order: "The eighth regiment, your twelfth regiment, and the sixteenth regiment, immediately organize the villagers in the city to help us rush to transport supplies." ”

"Weapons, ammunition, food, and supplies were sent to the mountains overnight for storage, and no one can take a single shot without my order."

"Tell the comrades: Datong City will definitely not be able to be taken by our base area in the northwest of Shanxi Province alone, so these captures not only belong to us, but every unit participating in the attack has a share."

"I will not take back the weapons and ammunition that everyone replenished during the siege, but the remaining weapons and ammunition must not be moved, and after the specific distribution plan comes out, we can take as much as we want."

The commander of the 12th regiment was not distressed at all: "Don't worry, chief, I will go and explain to a few regiment commanders in a while, and I will not touch the rest of the seizures." ”

Chief of Staff Zhou was not at all at ease.

He knows these regiment commanders under him too well, and his ability to fish for equipment is stronger than the other.

If they don't give an explanation, they will definitely not be able to bear the piles of weapons and ammunition in front of them, and they will do everything they can to get them into their own hands.

stared at his subordinates and explained repeatedly: "You draw a battalion from the 12th Regiment, and my guard battalion will also be transferred to you, and you will personally watch this matter." ”

"Until the distribution plan comes out, we can't take a single bullet!"

"If I hear any message from the Northwest Jin Base Area, I will only ask you!"

The commander of the 12th Regiment was very confident and assured: "The chief is relieved? Our regiments from the northwest of Jin are already very satisfied, and they will never take it again! ”

"Don't you know: before joining the war, we had only one dissatisfied firepower company per regiment, and the main company was equipped with two or three light machine guns, and the ammunition was less than ten per person."

"In the process of besieging the city, we not only formed a veritable artillery company and a heavy machine gun company, but also increased the number of light machine guns equipped with the main force company to more than five, and many troops replaced their rifles, and all the old sleeves with smoothed rifling were replaced with new three-eight covers."

"The ammunition is even worse, I don't know about the other regiments, in the twelfth regiment, each fighter was loaded with fifty rounds of ammunition and three grenades."

"The level of equipment is more than twice as strong as ours."

"Everyone is already satisfied, and they will never be greedy!"

Chief of Staff Zhou understood, it turned out that his subordinates had already eaten enough in the battle, and then he didn't think about other captures.

After being reassured, he continued to order: "In addition to transshipment seizures, there is one more thing to do. ”

"Datong is different from the ordinary county town occupied by the Japanese army, it is an important coal mining town, and many chaebols in Japan have interests here."

"Now that Datong City has been taken by us, these benefits will definitely belong to us."

"Immediately contact the underground party in the city and ask them to cooperate and seal all the shops, warehouses, and companies controlled by the Japanese in the city."

"The wealth in the hands of these Japanese was all looted from our China, and they should be returned to us in all their senses."

"The wealth, food, and other supplies seized from these people were all packed and sent outside the city."

"Commander Li specially explained this matter to me before returning to the base area: Before the siege of the city, they captured a Japanese-controlled coal mine outside the city, and more than 8,000 oceans were seized in the coal mine alone."

"According to the prisoners' confessions, the Japanese chaebols who control these coal mines have shops and offices in the city, and the money earned from the coal mines is first concentrated in Datong City, and when it reaches a certain scale, it will be sent back to China."

"Commander Li judged that these Japanese-controlled shops and companies must have hidden a lot of wealth."

"We must find out what is rich, take it from the people, and use it for the people.

In front of the enemy headquarters of the garrison regiment, Li Hao stared at the combat map in front of him without blinking.

Hong Linfeng was very busy with a few staff officers, constantly erasing the marks on the map that represented the strongholds of the Japanese puppet army and replacing them with the marks representing the Eighth Route Army.

Outside the headquarters, cavalry communicators constantly rushed over to bring the latest battle reports from the front.

"Regiment commander, the first company of the Guangling Independent Battalion reports: they have broken through the Dongzhuang stronghold and are attacking and advancing to the next target." Hong Linfeng took the battle report with an excited face, and then ordered his subordinates to count the results of the battle, change the logo on the map, and was very busy.

Political Commissar Wang Hong stood next to him, and when he saw that another Japanese puppet army stronghold had been erased on the map, he said very happily: "Regiment commander, this is the fifteenth stronghold taken tonight, and the soldiers' attack speed seems to be much faster than planned!" ”

Li Hao said: "I read the battle reports sent by various troops. ”

"The defensive forces in the no-man's land are even less than we judged, and the vigilance is also poor, and the dozen or so strongholds that have been captured have been taken by the soldiers in one attack."

"At the current pace of attack, we will be able to capture at least thirty strongholds before dawn."

At this time, Zhou Liang, the commander of the communications platoon, strode over: "Regiment commander, Datong City Zhou Chief of Staff telegram!" ”

"The siege troops are methodically cleaning up the battlefield and transferring captures."

"Chief of Staff Zhou has asked you to determine the distribution plan for all captures."

Li Hao refused without thinking about it: "This is not suitable, Chief of Staff Zhou is higher than me, and he should be assigned to it." ”

"Call back to the chief immediately, he will determine the distribution plan, and our garrison regiment will obey unconditionally."
