Li Ziyuan did not order the troops to do anything, he only issued a Japanese army coat to each of the troops. The rest was poured with captured kerosene and gasoline on the spot, and a fire was directly set on fire to transport the Japanese army, and all the winter clothes that had not had time to be distributed were burned. Fortunately, there is a distance between the warehouse where the clothes are loaded and the warehouse where the grain is stored.

When the Japanese were building the warehouse, they built fire escapes around the perimeter. In this way, the fire ignited in the clothing warehouse will not spread to other warehouses. However, when the fire was being set on fire, the search force found a batch of ammunition and weapons in the warehouse of a certain Japanese foreign company.

Although the number is not much, it is enough to have more than 100,000 rounds. Except for the 50,000 rounds of 79 and 65 bullets, the others were all British 77 calibers. In addition to ammunition, there were five hundred British-made rifles, as well as seven British-made light machine guns, a dozen revolvers, and Mukden-made shell guns.

In addition, there were a large number of medicines, gauze and other medical supplies, and several large boxes containing thousands of taels of opium, as well as cotton cloth and other materials. Looking at these medicines in the warehouse, Li Ziyuan could only sigh softly. These medicines, which are extremely short of the troops and cannot be obtained from the rear, are now appearing in the opponent's warehouse.

Li Ziyuan also found a large number of tung oil and more than 100 bags of pig bristles in these warehouses, which were strategic-level materials that were absolutely strictly forbidden to be sold to the occupied areas in the rear. Most of those drugs are actually American, especially sulfonamides and morphine, narcotics, and aspirin. Even half of the bandages are American.

Among the drugs found, there are even dozens of boxes, and penicillin, which is said to be difficult to buy even one or two gold. After seeing these materials, Li Ziyuan knew that what this so-called Japanese foreign company should do was smuggling business with the rear. These American medicines are all materials that are now exported to the Japanese by the Americans, and are strictly prohibited.

When the Japanese were unable to produce on their own, smuggling became the largest source under certain conditions. It's just that these medicines flow from there, and the bristles and tung oil come from Henan or Shaanxi. For Li Ziyuan, it doesn't matter anymore, it's all smuggled goods anyway.

Those British-made weapons, Li Ziyuan was not surprised. At present, the Japanese still occupy an unprecedented advantage in Southeast Asia. Hundreds of thousands of American and British troops retreated all the way, either as prisoners and into prisoner of war camps to enjoy the Japanese policy of treating prisoners of war. Either they lost all their weapons and equipment and fled for their lives wearing only a pair of pants.

Not to mention that anywhere else, Hong Kong, the closest place to China, the Japanese did not seize any less weapons and equipment. And no matter how strict the control of every country is, there will be no shortage of smugglers with great powers. And judging from these medicines, there should be a shadow of the Japanese military intelligence behind these smuggling activities.

For the intelligence department of the Japanese army, which has always been a powerful force, it is still worth doing to engage in some loot that they cannot use in exchange for some medicines that they are desperately lacking. However, judging from this batch of British-made weapons, Li Ziyuan believes that this smuggling will definitely not be used solely to exchange medicines and supplies.

The fact that the Japanese were willing to exchange weapons and equipment for medicines, as well as strategic materials such as tung oil and pig bristles, showed that they should be doing business with powerful local factions who were eager to expand their strength. At least these bristles and tung oil, without these people to escort it is difficult to pass through the rear.

How much bristles and tung oil were sold to the Japanese did not matter to Li Ziyuan. But these medicines, for Li Ziyuan, almost didn't bite his teeth. These things could not be bought by the troops themselves, but now they are in the warehouses of the Japanese.

It is almost self-evident that for any army in time of war, it is almost self-evident who will end up with medicines. They will allow the wounded Japanese soldiers who burned and looted on the battlefields of China to reappear on the battlefield. Those precious penicillin can prevent the wounded Japanese soldiers from the most terrible sepsis and infection for the wounded.

Sell these precious medicines, which are difficult to obtain even for the wounded of the Chinese army, to the enemy who burns and plunders their own land. His own wounded soldiers, but because of the lack of medicine, a large number of deaths. Those smugglers are committing a crime by doing so. They are committing crimes against their own country, their nation, and their own country's army.

Li Ziyuan didn't know Japanese, but he still knew the bright English letters on the outer packaging of the medicine. These medicines are even more scarce for the Eighth Route Army. Because of the lack of adequate anti-inflammatory drugs, how many wounded died because of sepsis. Because of the lack of anesthetics, many wounded people had to stiffen up for surgery.

Moreover, because of the lack of surgical equipment, many wounded people died because they could not perform surgery. Even if the Japanese army could not be forced to transport the grain away, if they could take away all the medicines and medical equipment, this sortie would not be in vain. In particular, the fifty boxes of penicillin, which could not be bought, were simply life-saving medicine for the wounded.

For this batch of civilian materials, but in fact they are all military materials, Li Ziyuan naturally will not politely pack them all and take them away. As for the remaining opium, cotton yarn, tung oil, pig bristles and other materials, they were all burned along with the uniforms of the Japanese army.

Although the Devil Army coat in the warehouse is enough for each of the troops of the entire division. Although there is a large amount of cotton cloth produced in Tianjin and Shanghai, it is enough for seventy percent of the troops of the entire Taihang Military Region next year, and each of them will be able to share a set of fine cloth military uniforms and a shirt.

If you can take them all away, the summer clothes of the whole military region can be solved next year. But the question is, can't you take it with you? If he could take it away, Li Ziyuan believed that he would not even leave a piece of cloth. Regardless of where the cotton cloth ends up, it is the Japanese who profit. So Li Ziyuan simply came and burned them all with a fire.

Compared to the overcrowded warehouse, the stuffy tanker was empty. This stuffy tanker was obviously transferred by the Japanese army to transport grain. If the grain had been loaded onto the truck, Li Ziyuan would have unceremoniously taken the train away. He also captured two train drivers in the freight yard, and the train was fully equipped with coal and water, and if there was a driver, he could drive away.

It's just a pity that all the grain is still in the warehouse. I didn't have the time or the manpower to load all the food onto the train in the shortest possible time. With the speed of the Japanese army's reaction, I am afraid that they will arrive before they have finished loading reinforcements. So Li Ziyuan can only give up, this is actually a very tempting plan and idea.

However, after setting the fire, Li Ziyuan immediately took the troops, and while the sky was still dark, he smeared oil under his feet and quickly transferred. He knew that the gunfire had stopped, and the devil might not have to go out immediately. But if the fire burns here, the devils over there will definitely come out of the city immediately.

Sure enough, just as Li Ziyuan withdrew on the front foot, the Japanese puppet army in the city on the back foot rushed over to the freight yard after seeing the firelight that could be seen more than ten miles away at night. But with Li Ziyuan's character, it will be so easy to let go there.

However, when retreating, Li Ziyuan, who had already joined He Sanliang, did not go too far, but just waited in concealment near the Nanguan Freight Yard. Now he has four mortars and one mountain cannon in his hands, and the shells are barely sufficient, so if he doesn't engage in him, Li Ziyuan will be willing?

After discovering that the reinforcements mobilized by the Japanese puppet army from the city were out of the city, Li Ziyuan immediately concentrated all the firepower of four mortars and one mountain artillery, and fired four rapid shots from Changzhi to the freight yard. A full twenty shells blew up the flesh and blood of the reinforced Japanese puppet army.

After firing these four rapid fires, Li Ziyuan led his troops to the east of Changzhi City and retreated quickly without any rest. Even when passing through the village, Li Ziyuan gave the order to pass directly. After evacuating twenty miles in one go, he turned to the northeast of Changzhi City, avoided all villages and pedestrians, and entered the Laoding Mountain area to hide and wait.

By the time the Japanese puppet army, which was dazed by the rapid artillery attack, launched a large-scale search around Changzhi City, Li Ziyuan had already taken his troops away from Changzhi City. Although the Japanese puppet army that went out of the city to search carried out a large-scale search around Changzhi City within a range of more than ten kilometers, they did not catch a single hair.

After Li Ziyuan's evacuation, the commander of the 36th Division personally rushed to the railway freight yard. Looking at the several warehouses that were still burning, Lieutenant General Jing Guan almost didn't grit his full mouth. There were not only all the winter clothes for the division, but also a lot of tung oil and bristles that the empire urgently needed.

These materials were obtained by the intelligence department with great difficulty from the hands of the Chinese people. There are also penicillin and American-made military drugs, which the intelligence department has only obtained at great cost from a certain local powerful faction in China, and are ready to be used by the wounded officers at the rank of major general and above.

The empire's limited chemical industry can only develop ordinary traumatic drugs. Not to mention that penicillin cannot be manufactured, even the production of sulfonamides cannot meet the needs. Since the full-scale war with the United States and the United Kingdom, all channels for importing such antibiotics from abroad have been cut off. If you want to get some penicillin, you can only find a way to smuggle it in through underground communication lines.

This time, there is not even a single scum left, not a single one left. I don't know how to explain to the base camp now. What's more, there are a lot of their own private goods in the burned cotton yarn and cotton cloth. If you want to get so much penicillin, let's first say that time allows, and even the chances are not too much.

Looking at the division commander with a blue face, all the officers around Lieutenant General Jing Guan did not dare to speak. And after forcibly suppressing the anger, Lieutenant General Iseki turned his head to the chief of staff of the division, Shintaro Imamura, and said, "What about the commander of the garrison squadron?" He was not worthy to be called a samurai, and he was shot at once. ”

"Order all the troops still in Taihang Mountain to immediately terminate the continued sweep of Taihang Mountain. Transfer all the troops back, even if the entire Shangdang Basin is turned upside down, you must find out this Tubalu for me. I'm going to unscrew the head of that eight-way commander and put it on my desk as a specimen. ”

After listening to the order of Lieutenant General Iseki, Imamura Shintaro was shocked. He did not expect that the division commander would actually go against the Japanese army's practice of dealing with officers who are unfavorable to the operation of this squadron commander. He didn't even give this squadron leader a chance to seppuku, and directly ordered to be shot.

I don't know that in the burning warehouse, at least part of the cotton yarn is the lieutenant's private goods. I don't know that there is also a batch of secret materials from the rear of Imamura Shintaro. Knowing that at this time, I am afraid that no one can change the anger of the division commander, so he can only sigh and nod in acquiescence.
