The battle of the 100 regiments of the Eighth Route Army was in full swing, and due to the large number of weapons and ammunition provided by Zhang Yunfei, in the first few days, the little devil was caught off guard.

Because the little devils didn't expect that the Eighth Route Army, which was usually just a group of dirt and eight roads in their eyes, would dare to launch a frontal attack on them.

In just a few days, tens of thousands of little devils were killed and injured, and on the land of North China, major railways and highways were basically destroyed, most of the bridges were blown up, and the traffic of the little devils was paralyzed.

The units participating in the Eighth Route Army have grown from more than 20 regiments on the first day to more than 100 regiments and nearly 300,000 troops now.

From the first day, the little devil found out that the situation was not right, and the commander of the North China Front of the little devil, Okamura Ningji, called a meeting of many little devils to discuss countermeasures.

But the little devils have never encountered such a style of play, and it may be possible for the little devils to fight a strategic Armageddie and carry out a sweep, but now in the face of the Eighth Route Army, in such a vast area, such a large all-out attack, the little devils can't come up with any good countermeasures for a while.

In the end, there was really no good way, so Okamura Ninji had no choice but to order all the troops to retreat in major towns and cities, concentrate superior forces, and find the Eighth Route Army for a decisive battle.

However, the Eighth Route Army adhered to the principle of fighting if it won and running away if it could not win, and this kind of response of the little devils also had little effect.

It took at least ten days for the little devils to slowly get used to it, but at this time, many of the little devils' communication lines had been paralyzed, and there were many casualties among the little devils.

Therefore, when Zhang Yunfei led the troops to recover Beiyuan County, the little devils were busy dealing with the full-line attack of the Eighth Route Army, and the high-level of the little devils basically did not notice Zhang Yunfei's move.

Zhang Yunfei and his entourage, accompanied by Comrade Xiao Zhengguang, deputy chief of the general staff of the Eighth Route Army, returned to Guojiayu, where the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was located, at the end of November.

Zhang Yunfei and his entourage, as soon as they arrived at the entrance of Guojiayu Village, Zhang Yunfei saw dozens of people including the commander-in-chief and the deputy commander-in-chief from a distance to greet him.

Far away, Zhang Yunfei jumped off the horse and walked quickly to the commander-in-chief and others, still a few meters away, Zhang Yunfei took the initiative to stretch out his right hand, and said loudly: "Boss, you come to the entrance of the village to greet you in person, Yunfei really can't afford it." ”

The commander-in-chief laughed, held Zhang Yunfei's hand tightly, and said enthusiastically: "Comrade Yunfei, in this battle of the hundred regiments, you have helped us so much, I will come to the entrance of the village to greet it, it is completely deserved." ”

Seeing that the commander-in-chief was approachable, Zhang Yunfei was also smiling: "Boss, a little help, don't worry about it." ”

"Comrade Yunfei, you are too modest, with so many weapons and equipment, how can you be a small favor." The commander-in-chief smiled, "Let's go, Comrade Yunfei, let's go to the headquarters organ, let's get together and have a chat." ”

This time, Zhang Yunfei supported so many weapons and ammunition, which was a relief in the snow for the Eighth Route Army, which was short of ammunition, and this batch of weapons and ammunition came too timely and too important.

Hearing that Zhang Yunfei was such a big deal, the commander-in-chief who was far away in Yan'an immediately rushed back to Guojiayu non-stop, and the commander-in-chief's heart was very happy and he also appreciated Zhang Yunfei very much.

The commander-in-chief believed that Zhang Yunfei, a comrade, knew the general situation, and at this time, there was no division between the Eighth Route Army and the 36th Group Army, and in the commander-in-chief's heart, Zhang Yunfei was also selfless.

Chairman Lian Yuan, who was in Yan'an, heard that Zhang Yunfei had supported such a large batch of weapons and ammunition for the Eighth Route Army, and the chairman was also happy and praised Comrade Yunfei again and again, Comrade Yunfei was good.

The commander-in-chief and Zhang Yunfei and his entourage did not take long to arrive at the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, and as soon as everyone sat down, the commander-in-chief happily said: "Comrade Yunfei, are you still used to it in the past ten days?" ”

Zhang Yunfei was grateful and said with a smile: "Boss, thank you for your concern, I feel pretty good these days." ”

"Okay, that's good. Comrade Yunfei launched the Battle of 100 Regiments this time, and achieved good results, dealing a heavy blow to the little devil, who is now in a state of exhaustion. The commander-in-chief said happily.

Zhang Yunfei's mood was also relatively happy, and Zhang Yunfei hurriedly praised: "This is great, now, the little devil has finally tasted the power of our Eighth Route Army." ”

Hearing this, many comrades of the Eighth Route Army next to him were all happy, even the deputy commander-in-chief.

The commander-in-chief also said happily: "Yes, the little devil is afraid that he will never dare to call us dirt eight roads in the future." ”

After saying that, the commander-in-chief himself burst out laughing.

After laughing happily, the commander-in-chief continued: "Comrade Yunfei, this time with the support of a large number of weapons and ammunition of your 36th Group Army, we are preparing for a long-term battle in this 100-regiment battle. ”

After listening to the words of the commander-in-chief, Zhang Yunfei also nodded, according to Zhang Yunfei's understanding of history, this Hundred Regiments Battle should be able to achieve good results, at least it will not be worse than the Hundred Regiments Battle in history.

Seeing that the two were talking very happily, the deputy commander-in-chief next to him also said with a spring breeze on his face: "Boss, this time our 100-regiment battle, I am also full of confidence, this time not only Commander-in-Chief Zhang has supported us with a large number of weapons and ammunition, our Huangyadong Arsenal is also being expanded, at this rate, as long as it takes another month, our first bullet production line will be put into production, not half a year, our other production lines will also be put into operation." ”

Since the battle of the hundred regiments is going on now, the bullets are being consumed every day, so the first production line of the Huangyadong Ordnance Industry is the bullet production line.

The equipment of the bullet production line is ready-made, and the equipment of the bullet production line has been transported from the machinery and equipment factory in Datong to Huangyadong two days ago, and there are many technicians accompanying them.

It is estimated that in a few days, the equipment will be installed and commissioned, and one month is enough time to produce the first batch of bullets.

The rest of the production lines, such as the Mauser 98K rifle production line, the Czech machine gun production line, the grenade production line, etc., some production equipment has been manufactured, and some equipment is still manufactured in Datong Machinery and Equipment Factory.

In the huge basin outside the Huangya Cave, several large factories are also under construction, and there is still a big difference between the factories of this era and the modern ones.

The factory building of this era is much simpler than the modern factory building, basically a brick and tile structure, only one layer high, and the beam on the top of the factory is still wood.

As for the huge factory building with steel frame structure, it is only found in Datong, and now the newly built factory buildings of the Huangyadong Arsenal are basically made of this kind of brick and tile structure, because the Huangyadong Arsenal basically produces light weapons, and this kind of factory building is sufficient.

Due to the simple structure of this plant, the construction of the Eighth Route Army is also very fast, the first plant, it only took a few days, it is basically almost completed, and now it is beginning to cover the tile capping.

As long as this plant is completed, the first 6.5mm bullet production line will enter the plant for installation and commissioning.

When the two 7.92 mm bullet production lines are put into operation, the Eighth Route Army will slowly bid farewell to the history of reloading bullets, and the vast number of soldiers of the Eighth Route Army will use high-quality bullets produced in their own arsenals.

Zhang Yunfei expressed his attitude to the deputy commander-in-chief at that time, promising to support the Huangyadong Arsenal, and the deputy commander-in-chief sent a report to the commander-in-chief in Yan'an to report this happy event.

However, some specific things could not be explained clearly in the telegram, and the deputy commander-in-chief planned to report in detail to the commander-in-chief in person at that time, but he did not think that the commander-in-chief had just returned, and he immediately met with Zhang Yunfei, and some details about the Huangyadong Arsenal had not yet had time to make a detailed report.

Now, when the commander-in-chief saw the first bullet production line, it would only take a month to produce bullets, and when he heard this, the commander-in-chief was overjoyed and said in disbelief: "Lao Peng, is this true?" If that's the case, for us, it's a big problem for us. ”

Mr. Peng didn't expect the commander-in-chief to be so happy, and the current commander-in-chief, just like when he heard that Zhang Yunfei promised to help expand the Huangyadong Arsenal, he was very happy in his heart.

Mr. Peng thought in his heart, the matter of Huangya Cave has not yet been reported to the commander-in-chief, and in the original telegram, it was only briefly mentioned, if the commander-in-chief heard the specific content, would he be very excited.

However, now is a good opportunity, so Mr. Peng thought about it for a while, and planned to report the matter of the Huangyadong Arsenal to the commander-in-chief.

So, Mr. Peng smiled and said happily: "Boss, I haven't had time to report to you in detail about our Huangyadong Arsenal, but I just want to report to you this time."
