Chapter 102: Adjustments in line with reality

At present, the 'fierce' gunfire in the direction of Pingchuan made Li Ziyuan's heart half relaxed. Fastest update access: щщщ.79XS.сОΜ. However, whether the Japanese troops in Hubei County would also get the news and dispatch immediately was not sure what Li Ziyuan was not sure about at the moment.

However, Li Ziyuan is clear about one thing, with the horizontal communication and liaison capabilities of the Japanese army, the Japanese puppet army in Pingchuan Town knew the news of the attack on the convoy, which means that all the Japanese puppet troops in the entire Hubei County will know and grasp it.

There is no such thing as a friendly army in trouble and immobile in the Japanese army, and the friendly and neighboring troops in the vicinity of that unit will be reinforced as soon as possible. Li Ziyuan didn't want to be made into a sandwich pie after taking advantage of it. In this flat western plain of Hubei, once entangled by the Japanese mechanized cavalry troops, the consequences are unimaginable.

Therefore, he didn't even have time to carefully clean the battlefield, and after roughly cleaning up the captured weapons and ammunition after the battle, he immediately retreated north with his troops. However, Li Ziyuan had a habit of searching the backpacks of Japanese officers whenever possible after each battle.

After opening the backpack of the Japanese captain who was shot in the head by Guo Xiaoshan, Li Ziyuan looked at the contents inside. The map and all the paper with the words written on it were swept away. At the same time, the binoculars and sabers on the corpses of the Japanese soldiers were also the objects of his search.

According to Li Ziyuan's estimate, all the squad leader-level cadres in his unit after these two battles can be equipped with telescopes. If you want to, you can also do one person with a Southern Type 14 pistol. Although Li Ziyuan, who was in a hurry to retreat, cleaned up the battlefield in a hurry, he also gained a lot in these two consecutive battles.

One "strong" crooked handle was lost, but one "strong" Belgian-made light machine gun, two "strong" Czech light machine guns, three "strong" light machine guns, and two grenadiers were captured. More than a dozen boxes were captured with 65 bullets, a considerable number of Japanese-made grenades were also obtained, and although the 79 bullets were not very many, there were several thousand rounds.

The only thing missing was that the bullets for the Jinzao submachine gun and the bullets used in the fast and slow machine were not captured. Moreover, the impact fuse of the Japanese-made grenade is not suitable for new recruits. Despite the great power of this grenade, it has some unreliable fuses, and this grenade is no less dangerous to recruits than the enemy.

It's just that the harvest is very rich, but the situation is not very favorable. For Li Ziyuan, since he has taken a big advantage, and now that the new reinforcements of the Japanese army have not yet arrived, when will he slip away at this time? However, when retreating, Li Ziyuan did not choose to move west, so as to re-enter the mountains for repair. Instead, the route of retreat was chosen, and the retreat to the north was chosen.

After fighting two battles in a row, the Japanese puppet army must have thought that it had adopted the method of transferring the tiger away from the mountains, and after transferring back the main forces of the Japanese puppet army, which was currently concentrated in the eastern mountains, they were looking for fighters to return to the mountains for repair. The Japanese puppet army will deploy heavy troops to block themselves outside the mountain on the route back to the mountain.

Then he went the other way, first to the north and then to the west. Be prepared to see how the situation develops before choosing the right time to retreat back to the mountains. It's a big deal to jump into the territory of Ludong and make a detour to return to the territory of District 2. Li Ziyuan is not the kind of person who wants to save face, he will make a decision when it is time to leave. Some things come down to it, but it's another thing to actually do it.

Li Ziyuan's speed of action was very fast, and he had completely left the battlefield before dark. And taking advantage of the night's 'color' to quickly move north for more than 20 miles, and then turned west directly to the northwest direction of Heshun, north of Hubei County. Judging from the map, this area is very close to the Basongling in the north, and Li Ziyuan is ready to enter the Basongling when necessary.

When he arrived around Heshun, Li Ziyuan did not enter the village. Instead, he chose a jujube grove for temporary concealment and trimming. At least let the troops rest and eat to recover their strength. At the same time, Li Ziyuan also told Liu Lianming to find a hidden place to bury some of the captured weapons that could not be carried.

Everyone carried several guns on their shoulders, and a large number of bullets were added, which really affected the speed of the troops, and caused the fighters to exert too much physical strength. In addition to the more than a dozen Type 38 rifles that Liu Yanlai took away, and more than 20 southern pistols. In the second ambush, the troops captured more than 40 38 rifles, more than 70 Jinzao 38 rifles, and 79 rifles.

These weapons have not been used yet, and they are too heavy to carry. In particular, the three boxes of 92 heavy machine gun bullets that were captured were not available with any firearms at all, and they became 'chicken' ribs that were useless and discarded. Therefore, Li Ziyuan still decided to wrap all the weapons that could not be carried and bury them first with the captured Japanese raincoats.

Marching with pots and jars will not only slow down the speed of the troops, but also increase the physical exertion of the soldiers. Willing, willing, only giving will there be. Some things are buried when they need to be buried when they need to be buried. Anyway, as long as you have the opportunity, you can come back and use it again.

So after arriving at the temporary resting place, Li Ziyuan made some adjustments to his weapons and equipment. Bury all the weapons and ammunition that are superfluous and cannot be carried for a while. As for whether these weapons and ammunition will see the light of day again and return to the battlefield where they are needed, it depends on what they will develop into in the future.

In adjusting the existing weapons and equipment of the troops, Li Ziyuan can be said to have taken great pains. In addition to the original two 'strong' Czech light machine guns, the captured 'strong' Belgian machine gun remained. Although the 'sex' ability of this machine gun is not as good as that of the Czech type, it does not pick bullets, and it can be used with seven or nine bullets. Unlike the Czechs, the first thing that is fired with miscellaneous bullets is to close the chamber.

The barrels of the remaining two captured Czech machine guns, along with the firing pins and magazines, were removed and distributed to the original two Czech machine guns as spare parts. As for the crooked handle, because of the large number of bullets, two 'stiffs' were left, and the rest were all buried.

Although the Czech style in Li Ziyuan's hands at the moment can completely replace the crooked handles with much worse 'sex' ability. But at the moment, the number of bullets is large, and the crooked handle machine gun with rifle cartridges can be used when necessary, and the large number of ammunition 'medicine' has become an advantage. Considering that from the perspective of ensuring the supply of ammunition and 'medicine', Li Ziyuan finally retained the two 'strong'.

Although the simultaneous maintenance of weapons of two calibers is not convenient for the logistical supply of troops. But at present, the source of the ammunition 'medicine' depends entirely on the seizure. Guaranteeing weapons of the same caliber, on the contrary, negates all the advantages. For Li Ziyuan at the moment, two calibers are two calibers, as long as the combat effectiveness is not weakened because of the problem of ammunition.

However, in order to ensure the Czech machine gun, there is a sufficient supply of ammunition, as well as considering the two puppet army equipment that they are facing that can obtain the source of seventy-nine bullets. Li Ziyuan replaced all the 79 rifles in the troops, except for a small squad of Czech rifles, with Hanyang-made and Gongzao-made four-year rifles, so as to free up sharp bullets as much as possible to ensure the use of machine guns.

Anyway, under the circumstance that they are fighting in close-range ambush warfare, the shortcomings of the round-tipped bullets used by these two rifles have a short 'firing' range and poor penetration. And because of the type of bullet, the lethality is greater. As for the Zhongcheng and Gongzao 98 rifles, which used sharp bullets, as well as the rest of the Czech rifles, they were buried by him.

The 'sexuality' of the Zhongzheng and Gongzao 98 rifles is indeed better, but in the case of limited ammunition sources and the need to ensure that the firepower of the machine guns of picky eaters is as sufficient as possible, the use of this small arms has become an advantage. Under the pressure of reality, Li Ziyuan actually has no choice.

As for why not all the machine guns were left behind, the reason is even simpler. If they all stayed, not only would the supply of ammunition not be guaranteed, but he would not be able to find so many machine gunners for a while. Leaving five 'strong' machine guns behind was enough for a force of more than 100 men like him. If you keep a few more 'stiff', it will obviously be a little greedy and can't chew it out.

Rather than guaranteeing that there are so many machine guns that do not have enough ammunition, it is better to save the limited number of bullets and ensure that a few 'strong' machine guns have sufficient firepower, which is more important on the battlefield than anything else. However, Li Ziyuan also 'handed over' a few cadres to make sure that the newly selected machine gunners were familiar with the use of machine guns as soon as possible, especially the two 'strong' crooked machine guns.

Don't be like the fighter you chose to temporarily act as a deputy 'shooter' during the second ambush battle. asked him to press the bullet in the 'door', but he didn't press the bullet in for half a day. If you don't have a fast and slow machine with you, it will play a certain role in making up for it in close combat, and you will almost delay the big thing.

In addition to certain adjustments in weapons and equipment, all Japanese-made grenades were distributed so that the troops could seize the time to familiarize themselves. The grenadiers are left two, and the grenadier is chosen by the grenadier hand in Ho Huizhang. Jinzao left two submachine guns, gathered all the remaining bullets together and distributed them equally, and buried the rest with the extra weapons, and the 'flower' mechanism and the remaining fast and slow machines were also left.

After the adjustment, the whole team had one Belgian machine gun, two 'guns' each with crooked handles and two Czech light machine guns. In addition to the machine guns, each soldier was given one hundred and twenty rounds of ammunition, and Japanese-made grenades and Gongzao and Jinzao grenades were guaranteed four per person. After seizing so many weapons this time, Li Ziyuan's troops were finally issued bayonets for each rifle.

In addition to the grenadier canister, Li Ziyuan also gave this guy an additional shell gun and fifty rounds of ammunition as a spare weapon. The 10 light machine guns were each issued a southern pistol. In addition to the ammunition and ammunition that were dispensed, Li Ziyuan also left five boxes of spare ammunition.

The sufficient ammunition 'medicine' made Li Ziyuan very brave to fight again. But thinking of the performance of those new fighters in two consecutive ambush battles, Li Ziyuan's heart instantly cooled again. After much consideration, he still decided that during the period of time when the war in the western region was switched, ambush warfare like today's could no longer be fought.

Not to mention the current level of training of the troops, which is far from meeting the needs of the battlefield. Even judging by the speed of the Japanese army's reaction, they will not give themselves such a chance again. Luo Hekanshiro's next performance, Li Ziyuan can imagine. Maybe you'll be like a mad dog looking for yourself everywhere right now.

Li Ziyuan can now foresee what will happen to him next. After thinking about it, Li Ziyuan still decided to avoid the war as much as possible. The main thing is to cut off the local power of the Japanese puppet in the western part of Hubei, and if it can, it is still necessary to look for fighters to see if it can solve the puppet Hubei plainclothes team.
