Seeing the Japanese plane, two of which were shot down and one was wounded at once, and then looked at the soldiers who were killed and injured by the bombing, as well as the baggage mules and horses that were killed, but Li Ziyuan's face was not half happy. The feeling of using the air weapon but not using it made Li Ziyuan feel very uncomfortable.

If only those 20 mm small cannons, their own troops can operate them skillfully. Just these three devils' small planes, why are they so rampant. Even if they can't be defeated, it's better to drive them into the air and not dare to fly so low. The more proficient a unit is in one weapon, the more certain it is of victory on the battlefield.

Even if it is not a complete victory, it can greatly reduce the casualties of the troops. At least losses like today's, are completely avoidable. Thinking of the last time I used a heavy machine gun, didn't I also shoot down the devil's plane? At that time, although there was a part of the luck involved, but at that time, didn't the heavens and the earth also succeed?

As long as you dare to think about it, there are always more ways than difficulties. Not to mention the fact that he now has an anti-aircraft machine gun and a 20-mm anti-aircraft gun in his hands, and first of all, the most difficult problems in terms of anti-aircraft weapons are solved. Thinking of it, Li Ziyuan turned his head to He Sanliang and said, "After I go back, these few twenty-millimeter anti-aircraft guns must find a way for the soldiers to operate them." ”

"This kind of anti-aircraft weapon, in our hands, has become a guy who can only shoot flat, what is this matter? If there is no such person in our sub-district, I will go to the military region to find a way to draw it. Even if our regiment smashes the pot and sells iron, this anti-aircraft weapon must also learn to use it. If the devil gives us a time every three times, how many people will we have for them to blow up? ”

Regarding Li Ziyuan's determination, He Sanliang also nodded thoughtfully. The air weapon will not be used, and the whole regiment can only be bombed passively, and everyone has to hold their breath. It's just that this kind of talent is not easy to find, not to mention this kind of anti-aircraft artillery, not to mention the general miscellaneous army, even in the Jin Sui army, there are not many of them.

Most of the professionals are controlled by the Central Army. Because whether it is Erlikon, Madsen or Breda, only the Central Army is equipped with the most of these 20-millimeter high-level dual-purpose machine guns. Even the original 40th Army did not have similar weapons.

A few Makqin heavy machine guns with 13 mm or anti-aircraft mounts in the miscellaneous army were already quite good. Most of the miscellaneous troops encountered Japanese planes on the battlefield, but because of the lack of anti-aircraft weapons, they could only be passively bombed but had no power to fight back.

When the "central authorities" allocate weapons and equipment, they have always been different from inside and outside. When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, a large number of miscellaneous armies went to the battlefield, but they had to find their own way to replenish weapons and ammunition. The 20-millimeter anti-aircraft gun, which cannot be self-made in China and can only be imported, is basically not supplemented except for the part purchased by the powerful factions in the territory of the miscellaneous army.

Although with the change of the war situation, many of these weapons have been lost, and even captured by the Japanese army for their own use or handed over to the puppet army, but the problem is that there are really not too many that can be used well. Air defense is a highly specialized and skilled job, familiar to those who have not received professional training.

Even if the captured Japanese army is handed over to the puppet army, it will not teach the puppet army how to use air combat. If you want to dig up talents in this area, it's really not easy to get it. After the end of the Battle of Linxian, both the miscellaneous army and the Central Army have now all retreated across the Yellow River, and if they want to engage in this kind of talent, they can only find a way to find it in the puppet army.

Especially in the kind of puppet army that has become a form of treason, there should be people who are familiar with this field. It's just that now the question is, to find it in that direction. This requires a lot of intelligence support, and this source of intelligence is not known to ordinary people except for the intelligence department of the military region.

What's more, it is still unknown how much of these artillery pieces will be able to stay in their own units after returning to the base areas. As far as He Sanliang knows, there are not many such high-level dual-purpose guns in the entire Taihang Military Region. Is it possible that the higher authorities will not transfer some of the seized batch this time?

After listening to He Sanliang's worries, Li Ziyuan frowned: "No matter how difficult it is, I have to find a way, I don't believe that a living person can suffocate urine?" In the future, we will encounter devils' planes more often, and we can't always be so passively bombed. I don't believe that a living person can suffocate urine? Looking through the entire military region, hundreds of thousands of troops can't find a single person who can use this kind of artillery? ”

"The superiors want to transfer some of the normal, but even if we leave one door, Lao Tzu can't let him be idle there, and he must make full use of it. And that anti-aircraft machine gun, you kid has to find a way to hide it. Don't let your superiors know, it's up to me if something happens. ”

Li Ziyuan was really stepped on this time, and he planned to build his own small cannon company even if he smashed the pot and sold iron. Seeing Li Ziyuan's stubbornness coming up again, He Sanliang shook his head and didn't say anything more. Besides, Li Ziyuan is not wrong, it is not a matter of being beaten so passively.

It's just that for Li Ziyuan at the moment, although the threat to heaven has been solved. But in order to avoid air raids, the troops wasted a lot of time. Just when Li Ziyuan's department had just entered the Ludong area, he had already seen the reckless Taihang mountains in front of him. The scouts in front of them were panting and reported that less than ten miles in front of them, about two thousand days of puppet troops were unfolding.

Before Li Ziyuan could speak, in the direction where Dong Ping, who was at the forefront of the entire army, sounded a dense gunfire sounded. Hearing the gunfire in front of them, Li Ziyuan and He Sanliang glanced at each other, and they both saw the shock in each other's eyes. The two men didn't say anything, and rushed to the front with the guards in the shortest possible time.

At this moment, Dong Ping's department in front of him has already formed a group with the vanguard of the Japanese puppet army in front of him. Dong Ping commanded two companies that were fighting in a melee with the vanguard of the puppet army for more than 700 days. And the main force of the Japanese puppet army over there is also coming in this direction one after another. Under the condition of a long drought and no rain, the dust raised by the rapid march of the Japanese puppet army can be seen clearly here.

Li Ziyuan held the binoculars and observed carefully for a while, and said to He Sanliang beside him: "Tell the troops in front of you to catch a tongue for Lao Tzu." Also, tell Dong Ping to tear a hole for me at all costs. I was ordered to press on the whole battalion except for one company that was in charge of containment in the back. ”

Hearing Li Ziyuan's order, He Sanliang did not send a correspondent. Instead, he carried his pistol and rushed out. Li Ziyuan, who didn't have time to hold He Sanliang, could only shake his head and say nothing when he looked at his back as he hurried away. I could only continue to hold up my glasses, paying attention to the battle situation in front of me while waiting for He Sanliang's information.

At this time, Ma Yongcheng, who was sheltered in the back, also rushed over quickly after hearing the sound of gunfire coming from in front. Just beside Li Ziyuan, he raised his binoculars and observed the battle situation: "Lao Li, these Japanese puppet troops don't seem to be the Japanese puppet troops who were around us before." ”

Li Ziyuan, who had always been observing the battle situation, heard Ma Yongcheng's question: "You are not wrong, this is indeed not the Japanese puppet army we encountered before." The structure of the Japanese army is not clear for the time being, but these puppet armies are all garrisons. If I'm not wrong, this Japanese puppet army is our old enemy. Grandma's, it's really a narrow road. ”

"Before, this guy blocked our route to the south, and one of our battalions still doesn't know its whereabouts. This time, he actually came here again, trying to block our door. This time, Lao Tzu is not so easy to speak, even if Lao Tzu dies here, he will have to peel off a layer of skin today. ”

Li Ziyuan's words fell, but Ma Yongcheng shook his head and said, "Leader, it's not a way for us to have a hard top here." The devils around here will come around when they talk, once we have a stalemate here, the consequences will be unfavorable to us, and we can't let the devils make dumplings at the door of our house. ”

As if to verify Ma Yongcheng's words, as soon as his words fell, a dense burst of gunfire rang out in the direction of Li Ziyuan's right flank. The messengers sent by the 4th Company of the 2nd Battalion to cover the flank also rushed over and reported that a Japanese puppet army of about 500 people, mainly puppet troops, had touched over from the north side of Hubei in the south.

Hearing this report, Li Ziyuan did not panic. Instead, he gave the fourth company a death order, even if they all fought out, they had to be nailed to their current position. Before receiving an order, the security of the entire flank of the troops was protected at all costs.

When the correspondent received the order and turned away, He Sanliang, who had rushed to the front, rushed back with two soldiers and a man wearing a pseudo-garrison uniform. As soon as he saw this captive, Li Ziyuan was a little happy. He still knew this person, and he was the deputy captain of the Pseudo-Huguan Garrison.

He had been captured by the troops once before, but was released for some reason. I didn't expect this guy to be unlucky and glorious again this time. However, Li Ziyuan, who had some numbers in his heart about this guy's current identity, looked around and asked directly about the situation.

This old man was also a little embarrassed after seeing Li Ziyuan in front of him. He thought that he was on the battlefield, so he deliberately chose a Japanese who supervised the battle behind him, and observed the position of the blind spot in the front eight roads, and fished in troubled waters where he could not work hard. Unexpectedly, these eight roads didn't know how to find this dead end, and they were here after a counterattack.

But although it is embarrassing, this guy is still very happy, and he confesses everything he knows like pouring beans into a bamboo tube, and he confesses everything neatly. After listening to this guy's explanation, Li Ziyuan muttered a few words to He Sanliang beside him. After He Sanliang returned this guy's pistol and guards to him, he carefully let him go again.

It's just that after this guy left, Li Ziyuan squatted on the ground and pointed to the map: "Sure enough, the one in front of us is really Tsuruta Nunan, this guy who haunts us with a ghost." This guy actually judged so accurately, we tossed so much around Changzhi before. ”

"After this guy went north, he actually ignored the orders of the 36th Division and was waiting for us in Ludong and Hubei. And in such a short period of time after receiving the order, we can actually judge our movements. And just by such a millimeter, they actually grabbed us in front of us and blocked our passage into the mountain. ”

"Grandma, this guy clearly intends to keep us all here this time. Mobilized the puppet garrisons of the three counties, as well as the nearly 1,000 troops of the Japanese army who stayed in Hubei and Ludong after we went north, serving as a blockade, together with an integrated brigade under his command, this guy seems to have made a bloody investment this time. ”
