Chapter 312: The Gun Shoots the First Bird!

Guns mean a second life for many soldiers, and if there are no guns on the battlefield, how can they be called soldiers? The quality of weapons directly affects the victory or defeat of the opposing sides. People are important, but weapons are also indispensable.

For the Eighth Route Army, which was fighting behind enemy lines, weapons were also the most important thing for every unit commander. With weapons, you can expand your troops, and if you expand your troops, you can win battles, get more combat captures, and thus capture more weapons.

In the initial stage, it was extremely difficult for any anti-Japanese armed forces fighting behind enemy lines. Most of the newly formed guerrilla units are not equipped with weapons at all, and many even use cold weapons to fight the enemy.

Using cold weapons against hot weapons, the final result is obviously doomed. Perhaps this is also the reason why many guerrillas can only avoid the war when they encounter the encirclement and suppression of little devils. Because not avoiding war often means that there must be sacrifices.

Seeing Hu Biao fulfill his previous promise, the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army who accompanied him also felt that Hu Biao at this moment seemed to be much more pleasing to the eye than before. For these soldiers, it is also a very face-saving thing to be able to use the rifle of the little devil.

Although the performance of the medium formal rifle equipped by the national army is no worse than that of the little devil, the problem is that this kind of medium formal rifle can only be obtained by the Eighth Route Army by relying on combat capture. Compared with other national armies issued from above, the Eighth Route Army did not enjoy this kind of treatment.

Many soldiers of the Eighth Route Army fought behind enemy lines, and some of the weapons they used were rifles used during the Red Army. This is also the reason why the rifles used by many soldiers of the Eighth Route Army will be smoothed out.

Even this kind of troops, whose accuracy cannot be guaranteed, is extremely desirable for many soldiers fighting behind enemy lines. If you have a gun in your hand, you will have the power to fight back on the battlefield, and the gun will also mean life support for the soldiers.

Opening the ten wooden boxes and looking at the little devil rifles placed inside, Zhang Guangwu also said sincerely: "Captain Hu, thank you!" To tell the truth, our Qilu Column has a lot of troops at the moment, but the weapon gap is too big! ”

The speed at which the Eighth Route Army pulls troops is also well-known in the national army. Fighting behind enemy lines, the aggression and ferocity of the little devils also aroused the anger of many soldiers and civilians in the War of Resistance. In this case, there are many young people who choose to join the Eighth Route Army.

Secondly, as the people of the occupied areas, many young people have lost the opportunity to work. For them, joining the army can at least have food and clothing. If you really want to stay at home, you may be dragged by the little devil to be a coolie!

Facing Zhang Guangwu's exclamation, Hu Biao said with a smile: "Chief of Staff Zhang, if you really want to thank you, thank Captain Guo!" These rifles are my thank you. As for weapons, we don't have a shortage of weapons, but we don't have much to spare.

In view of my cooperative relationship with you, I have a proposal that Chief of Staff Zhang may wish to consider. Recently, I will be in Zaozhuang to plan a new round of attacks. If nothing else, there should be some gains.

If Chief of Staff Zhang sends a letter to Hu and someone, he will also ask the troops to come over and establish a base area behind the enemy in Zaozhuang. For the number of people, it is best not less than 1,000 people. As a sign of goodwill, I will give 500 rifles free of charge.

If I get a good next harvest, a light or heavy machine gun or even a mortar, I can give it away. The premise is that when the battle is over, you need to take the reputation of the Japanese army who attacked Zaozhuang. In the short term, I don't want to be too showy! ”

Taking over the reputation of the Japanese army that attacked Zaozhuang naturally helped a lot to enhance the prestige of the Eighth Route Army. But the consequences of this will inevitably anger the little devils. But the benefits given by Hu Biao are still something that Zhang Guangwu can't refuse.

Five hundred rifles means that the Qilu Column is fully capable of forming a main battalion, a main battalion equipped with all-Japanese rifles. If you add light and heavy machine guns and mortars, add some people and guns, and form a main regiment, it's no problem!

Even this expanded main force regiment is in no way inferior in combat effectiveness to the main force. Compared with the main force of the Eighth Route Army in the northwest of Shanxi Province, although the Qilu Column is also the main force, its combat effectiveness is still not comparable to that of the main force.

Thinking of this, Zhang Guangwu, although he wanted to agree, he still said very cautiously: "Captain Hu, is this true?" ”

"Although I don't dare to consider myself a gentleman, I really haven't broken the contract for what I promised!"

"Good! There are thousands of troops involved, plus a large army that has the potential to anger the little devils, and I need to consult with my superiors to make a decision. At least personally, I would certainly not refuse such cooperation! ”

"It's okay! There's still time! Within half a month, just give me an answer! Your column should also have a radio station, and when there is news, you can contact the radio directly. For ease of contact, I hope you can set up some contact points outside the city! ”

"This is no problem, I will let Xiao Guo take charge of this later!"

After the completion of the transaction, there was a new cooperation that seemed to be beneficial to both parties, and Zhang Guangwu also knew the importance of this batch of drugs, and did not stop at the transaction location too much. Not long after, he left with the troops that came with him.

Looking at the Eighth Route Army in the distance, Xu Sandao said with a little puzzlement: "Captain, let them be famous, and we still have to give benefits?" ”

Regarding Xu Sandao's incomprehension, Hu Biao smiled and said: "The gun shoots the first bird!" Making a fortune in silence is the last word. Compared with the Eighth Route Army, our strength is still very weak. It's also a very troublesome thing to really be entangled by little devils.

For us, whether it is the Eighth Route Army, the National Army, or even other anti-Japanese war forces, we still seem insignificant. If we are not careful, the little strength we have now may be wiped out. This kind of reputation, don't do it! ”

In Hu Biao's view, he seems to be a two-faced person now, whether it is the National Army or the Eighth Route Army, he can cooperate. The premise is to maintain your independence. In contrast, he was more at ease working with the Eighth Route Army.

In addition, in order not to annoy the suspicious chairman, Hu Biao must also develop in a low-key manner. At this stage, the two units he formed are simply not enough to resist the Japanese army's key 'care'.

The only way to speed up the accumulation of strength is to expand more troops, and constantly screen and train elite troops from the expanded troops. When Hu Biao has tens of thousands of grassroots troops and thousands of elite troops in his hands, he may be able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Whether facing the national army or the little devils, at least there is a certain amount of power to fight back. As for some ideas and plans for the future, Hu Biao probably has some plans. It's just that if he wants to complete these ideas and plans, Hu Biao still needs to continue to work hard to keep a low profile.

On the way back to the base overnight after escorting the medicine, Zhang Guangwu also said seriously: "Xiao Guo, you must be sincere when you interact with Captain Hu. Although they are not many in number, their combat effectiveness and strength are extremely strong.

You may not know that the Linyi victory and the Taierzhuang victory have a lot to do with Captain Hu. If we can pull them over, it will also be extremely beneficial to the development of our column in Qilu. ”

Listening to what Zhang Guangwu said, Guo Ziming was surprised but smiled bitterly: "Chief of Staff, although I don't have much contact with Captain Hu, I feel that if I want to pull him over, I'm afraid it's impossible." This person is acting too freely. ”

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Guo Ziming will cooperate with the spy Lian Qi's attack on the Zhongxing Coal Mine and give Zhang Guangwu a detailed introduction. I heard that Hu Biao not only didn't want to be a prisoner of the Japanese army, but also cut off the heads of those little devils as sacrifices to pile up Jingguan.

Such an act is undoubtedly a serious violation of military discipline when it is put into the Eighth Route Army. But as a soldier, Zhang Guangwu still sighed: "This person is not simple!" Although the method of action is a little excessive, have you ever thought about why he did it? ”

"Buying people's hearts?"

"That's just one of them! In addition, he asked those prisoners of war to cut off the heads of little devils as sacrifices, and also asked those prisoners of war to accept their names. If you do this kind of thing, it will be impossible for those prisoners of war to become prisoners of war again when they encounter little devils in the future! ”

After listening to Zhang Guangwu's analysis, Guo Ziming also felt very reasonable. Just as Guo Ziming was thinking, Zhang Guangwu continued: "Even if we can't pull him to our side, we must maintain close cooperation with him, this person is very important to us!" ”

"Understood! Later, I will arrange a few more contact stations outside the city to ensure that I can be contacted in time for news! ”

"Okay! The matter of Zaozhuang will be handed over to you for the time being, and I will also truthfully report to my superiors about your credit this time. If nothing else, maybe after a while, there will be troops arriving in Zaozhuang, remember to contact you when you arrive! ”

"Please rest assured, Chief of Staff, we have been waiting for a large army to come!"

For traffic intelligence officers like Guo Ziming, sometimes they want to do something, but they often have to give up ruthlessly because they have no reinforcements and no strength. If something really happens, it is difficult to get help from superiors and troops.

If Zaozhuang can really form a large army of more than 1,000 people, they can also notify the troops in time to seize it when they find a combat opportunity in the future. If you are really in trouble, you can also seek the support and help of the large army.

Zhang Guangwu, who returned to the rear base area with the medicines, also sent a telegram to the headquarters as soon as possible, informing him of the successful transaction of the drug transaction. At the same time, he also truthfully reported the cooperation proposed by Hu Biao to his superiors, and attached the suggestions of the column.

After receiving the telegram from the Qilu Column, Mr. Zhu also smiled and said: "It seems that this kid is really going to give us a problem!" ”

"Boss, this shouldn't be a problem, but a benefit for us! Not to mention anything else, Zaozhuang is really good. It would be extremely helpful for us to be able to establish ourselves there.

If you pull a force of about 1,000 people over, you can get 500 rifles and a batch of machine guns, and then you can form an independent regiment, and you can think of no problem. There is an independent group, and it is not a big problem to deal with the little devils! ”

Listening to the analysis of other commanders, Mr. Zhu also knew that this opportunity was good. For the large army to advance into Qilu and integrate the anti-war armed forces of Qilu, Yan'an has expressed its approval.

It has even been decided that a part of the main force will be transferred from the 115th Division and the 129th Division, and Deputy Division Commander Xu of the original 129th Division will serve as the military commander, officially opening the road for the development and expansion of the Eighth Route Army behind the enemy lines in Qilu!
