Chapter 356: Greed can't chew too much

In order to strengthen the firepower and reduce the casualties of the blocking troops, the three anti-aircraft machine guns stored in the ammunition depot by the Japanese army were all pulled out by Li Ziyuan and flattened the guns, which were aimed at the Japanese puppet troops who came to reinforce them. Thirteen-mm anti-aircraft machine gun bullets, which can easily penetrate a street.

The Japanese puppet soldiers, who tried to use the houses to hide from the shells, were thrown down in pieces by the bullets of the anti-aircraft machine guns that came at them. Although the troops are also in urgent need of anti-aircraft weapons at the moment, the current problem cannot be taken away. And those mountains of ammunition in the warehouse, don't waste them if you can't take them away, right?

By the time Li Ziyuan put on the backs of more than 20 carts and dozens of pack horses in the Japanese army's ammunition depot, they were all filled with ammunition and weapons. Each fighter was given an additional fifty rounds of ammunition, as well as three Japanese *. Most of the fighters also carried ammunition on their bodies.

opened the ammunition depot of the Japanese army, and in the face of a large amount of ammunition and weapons, Li Ziyuan still behaved very restrainedly. He knew that with the circumstances he was in, it was impossible to get rid of all the ammunition in one go. Not even to mention taking them all, even taking a third of them would overwhelm your troops.

The Japanese army was in the ammunition depot of the Fire Temple, although there were more than 20 horse-drawn carts and two trucks. But no one in his own army can drive except himself. With horse-drawn carts and pack horses in the warehouse, you can carry up to a part. So he is still very sensible, and only picks and takes with him what he needs the most.

Zhou Tong is still right, greedy and chewy. In the case that the troops have no transportation capacity and need to maintain their own combat effectiveness, being too greedy can only make them die faster. Although it is a pity that the remaining ammunition cannot be taken away, after all, it will not be burned if the green mountains are left. If there are troops, there will be everything, and if the troops are exhausted, there will be nothing.

In addition to some six-five, seven-seven-millimeter bullets, Li Ziyuan only took away the shells he urgently needed, as well as the 100,000 rounds of seventy-nine bullets distributed to the puppet army in the warehouse, and a few Northeast-made seventy-nine Czech machine guns. Plus a batch of *, grenadier canisters * and *, *, *.

When moving ammunition, he did not have as many soldiers as possible, and only picked what he needed most. Although he also knew that if all this batch of ammunition could be transported back to the Taihang base area, it would be a significant increase in the combat effectiveness of the entire Taihang army. But the problem is that he doesn't have the ability to transport all the ammunition away at the moment.

When it was time to give up, Li Ziyuan still chose to give up. I only took with me what I needed the most, and what I could meet my needs. Just like the ammunition of the Japanese army's standard 92 heavy machine gun, Li Ziyuan only took 50,000 rounds. Six or five bullets, he also only took 100,000 rounds. Although these ammunition are only part of the ammunition depot, they are already somewhat burdensome of the troops.

On the contrary, whether it is Japanese-style or made in the Northeast, he takes as much as he can. As for the barge guns and shell guns and shell bullets stored in the warehouses of the 36th Division, which may have been used to equip the puppet army, Li Ziyuan did not leave a single shot. And those Japanese-made eight-millimeter pistol cartridges, in order to replenish those Japanese-made submachine guns, I also brought a few boxes.

Li Ziyuan knew very well that this time he had fought three times to rule the city, to a large extent, he took advantage of the loopholes in the deployment of the Japanese army. At present, the surrounding Japanese puppet army is probably gathering to Changzhi City with all its might. If you are too greedy, it will greatly affect the mobility of your troops. When the time comes, you can't run, how can you deal with the siege of the Japanese puppet army?

However, the ammunition that could not be taken away did not mean that the Japanese army should be left behind to fight themselves. If this ammunition depot is blown up, I am afraid that the entire 36th Division, even if all the guns and artillery are constantly stopped, it will be impossible for them to use their superiority in firepower unscrupulously in a short period of time.

When it was time to retreat, Li Ziyuan carefully looked at the distance of the houses around the Fire God Temple, and asked people to load the parts that could not be carried away*, as well as the 94-style mountain shells and shells of other calibers that could not be taken away, and then load them all into each ammunition depot and load them all on*, preparing to blow up the largest ammunition depot of the Japanese army in the southeast of Shanxi Province when he was about to retreat.

Among the three captured Japanese-made anti-aircraft machine guns and four 37 flat-fire guns, Li Ziyuan took away one 37 flat-fire gun and one anti-aircraft machine gun, and all the excess was blown up with * before retreating. Li Ziyuan's attitude is very clear, what I can't take away will definitely not be left for you.

As early as when he opened the ammunition depot, Li Ziyuan found the veterans he was asking for. A few people summed it up, and they did a lot of tricks when blasting. These experienced veterans made a disguised * with incense sticks plus *.

When Li Ziyuan gave the general retreat order, these veterans lit incense sticks. And the length of the *, several veterans also controlled quite accurately. It is guaranteed that within twenty minutes, all * arranged in various ammunition depots will be detonated.

After the * setting was completed, Li Ziyuan accurately pinched the time. Adopt the method of alternate cover, and withdraw from Changzhi City under the cover of the broken rear troops. And the Japanese puppet army reinforced there saw that the Eighth Route was withdrawn, but they did not dare to rush to pursue. Instead, they carefully adopted the tactic of alternate cover, searching and advancing at the same time.

It's just that after these Japanese puppet troops found out that all the Eighth Roads had really withdrawn, and the entire ammunition depot was sure that there was no one around it, they rushed into the ammunition depot in a hurry. A few veterans painstakingly set up* to detonate the entire Fire Temple ammunition depot. Almost none of the Japanese puppet troops, who rushed into the ammunition depot to count the losses, came out alive.

The violent explosion sound produced after a large number of ammunition was detonated, shattering the glass of the entire Changzhi City. The smoke from the detonated ammunition can be seen clearly from more than a dozen kilometers away. The entire Changzhi City was shaken by the violent explosion, and it trembled a few times. The Beicheng Tower, which was already overwhelmed by the bombing, was directly shattered by this explosion.

After Li Ziyuan himself blew up the ammunition depot and cut off the tail that might bite him, he immediately gathered all his troops, and with a large amount of captured loot, he patted his ass and moved closer to He Sanliang. At the same time, someone was sent to inform the Changzhi Independent Battalion that it was time to retreat.

And Changzhi City, which was left behind them at this moment, was already in a mess at this time. The bombed-out ammunition depot of the Fire Temple is still burning. The Japanese army field hospital in Changzhi City also swept away all the medicines, and not even a single piece of medicine was left for the Japanese army.

Everything that could not be taken away from this Japanese military hospital, including the X-ray machine, was also smashed. Fortunately, Balu didn't attack the doctors and nurses, but just tied them up and threw them into a house. The wounded soldiers who were hospitalized did not suffer any injuries, except for a few who tried to resist and were killed.

It's just that this company commander and instructor, although they snatched out a large number of surgical instruments and medicines stored in the entire Japanese army hospital, were still scolded by Li Ziyuan. Li Ziyuan scolded him not because he robbed the Japanese army hospital, but because this guy grabbed the wrong thing.

You're right to grab the medicine, but the question is, why did you smash the X-ray machine? That thing is no less useful than a mountain cannon for the eight roads that lack medical treatment. For the Eighth Route Army, this thing is much more expensive than the bunch of disinfectant powder they snatched back, which treated venereal diseases for the Japanese army who did not change their animal nature, and the 606 that cost much more money.

If I had known where this thing was, I would have had to get it back if I had lost two heavy machine guns. Although they also know their troops, they have a low level of education, and they don't know any of these things. But when I was about to set off, I repeatedly explained that in the devil's hospital, except for the injured of the devil, the things in it were all treasures.

You can bring back a lot of surgical instruments and scalpels, and even take off the shadowless lamp in the operating room of the Japanese Army Hospital for Changzhi, why did you put the most important thing on a * and blow it up? Even if the unit with only two hygienists is not used, it is better to hand it over to the general hospital of the military region than to smash it.

Do you kid guarantee that if you take a shot on the battlefield, this shot will not hit the key position? Knowing that the X-ray machine in the Japanese Army Hospital in Changzhi was smashed, Li Ziyuan was furious. If Ma Yongcheng hadn't pulled desperately, he would have almost beaten this upside-down company commander.

Looking at the furious Li Ziyuan, the company commander and the instructor of that company didn't dare to distinguish between them. Looking at the two people who bowed their heads and were silent, Li Ziyuan, who had no remedies at this time, could only scold a few words for these two guys who were a pair of dirt buns. What else can I do? You can't shoot these two for an X-ray machine.

Fortunately, these two guys didn't do too much. The X-ray machine was smashed, but several microscopes were brought out. If even these microscopes are smashed, I'm afraid that even if Ma Yongcheng pulls it, Li Ziyuan won't be able to suppress the anger in his heart. For this X-ray machine, although Li Ziyuan is not a doctor, he is really distressed.

There is no X-ray machine in the hospitals of the whole military region. If there is a thing like this, how many wounded people can be saved, because they can have surgery to save their lives. But when an X-ray machine was placed in front of him, he was blown up by his subordinates.

Looking at Li Ziyuan, whose face was always iron-blue, Ma Yongcheng on the side hesitated for a moment and said, "Lao Li, they can't be blamed for this." Many of our cadres and fighters have too low a level of education, and they don't know those machines and equipment. Our previous education was also focused on weapons and ammunition, which they had direct access to. ”

"The X-ray machine is out of reach of ordinary cadres and soldiers, and they don't know what it does. Besides, it was so bulky that the warriors didn't understand it and couldn't disassemble it. After returning this time, we will have to deepen the soldiers' understanding of the trophies. Just make sure you don't do it again next time. ”

Ma Yongcheng's persuasion, let also know about this matter, and he can't blame the company commander and instructor Li Ziyuan of this company, snorted heavily, and didn't say anything more. Moreover, now is not the time to pursue these two, and now how to make the troops evacuate safely is the most important thing.

Compared to Li Ziyuan, who had a big harvest but was a little annoyed because the X-ray machine was blown up. Facing the ruined Changzhi City and the ammunition depot that had become a ruin, Lieutenant General Jingguan, who was furious, could no longer suppress the anger in his heart, and immediately spurted out a mouthful of blood, and fell directly into a coma.
