Chapter 175: Surprise (2)
Although there was a large iron gate closed in the cave, fortunately, the large iron gate was not locked, only a thick iron chain was wrapped around the door. The two soldiers who followed Liu Xiaogang immediately ran to the door, took off the iron chain on the door, and slowly opened the iron door.
As the iron door turned, a "whin" sounded, and a glimmer of light shone through the crack in the iron door into the arsenal. A "Kuang" sounded, and the iron door was pushed open by the soldiers.
"Go, go in, pay attention, leave everything on your body that is easy to catch fire." Liu Xiaogang ordered.
Hearing the captain's order, everyone followed Liu Xiaogang with excitement and walked in. When you first enter the gate, the cave is not spacious, only about three meters wide. However, traces of the transformation are clearly visible. "Captain, it looks like we've found the right place." The squadron leader said, pointing to a bullet scattered on the ground.
Liu Xiaogang looked at the small pile of bullets on the ground, and nodded with a smile. Because, at a glance, the bullet on the ground knows that it is a formal rifle bullet. Liu Xiaogang picked up a bullet, looked at it, and continued to walk inside. The further they went, the stronger the light became, and finally, after they had turned a corner, a wide cavern appeared in everyone's eyes, and bright light shone through the holes in the walls of the cave on both sides of the cavern.
"Wow, captain, look, so many cannons, heavy machine guns and shells, my mother, I've never seen so many weapons in my life," a soldier behind Liu Xiaogang shouted.
Not only the soldiers behind him, but even Liu Xiaogang himself opened his mouth and looked straight at the scene in front of him. Because the sight in front of me is so shocking.
The cave chamber of more than 200 square meters is neatly stacked with various boxes, mortars, and mountain cannons, exuding cold light, neatly placed on the open space.
Liu Hua led everyone to shuttle quietly among the ammunition. Suddenly, several different large boxes caught Liu Xiaogang's attention. "Xiao Wang, take this box down and open it." Liu Xiaogang commanded at the two soldiers behind him.
"Yes, Captain." Xiao Wang, who heard the order, pulled a soldier next to him, walked to the box pointed out by Liu Xiaogang, and moved it down with all his might. "What's it, it's so heavy!" Xiao Wang couldn't help but complain. "Just open it and see." The warrior next to him said.
There was a "click", and the box was opened by the warrior with the dagger he carried with him. "Bang" the warrior removed the lid of the box. I saw that the surface of the box was covered with a large amount of straw. Liu Xiaogang stepped forward and removed the straw, revealing a neat row of shell guns, exactly 12 of them.
"Wow, the shell guns, they are all original imported from Germany, or new, you look at the gun oil on the gun." The squadron leader behind him picked up a barge gun and exclaimed. "What else is down there? Oh my God, there's sixty shell guns in this box, Captain! Xiao Wang next to him exclaimed.
"Quick, open these boxes too." Liu Xiaogang ordered excitedly.
"Captain, five boxes of 300 shell guns." The squadron leader walked up to Liu Xiaogang and said.
"Well, yes, let the warriors look separately and see what else is good?" Liu Xiaogang also had greater expectations for this arsenal industry at this time.
"Yes." After a few of the fighters answered, they immediately looked around. Immediately, the sound of opening boxes sounded in the cavern. "Captain, there are a lot of rifles here, all of them are medium and formal rifles, and they are still new." One of the fighters exclaimed.
"Captain, submachine guns, here are submachine guns" It didn't take long for one of the fighters to shout.
"Captain, Czech light machine guns, oh my God, so many"
Listening to the constant shouts of the soldiers, Liu Xiaogang was excited. In this way, almost one night, Liu Xiaogang spent time in the arsenal, but the hard work of the night was also rewarding, because through a night of inventory, the materials in the arsenal gave Liu Xiaogang a rough statistics.
Looking at the data in his hand, Liu Xiaogang's hands trembled a little. "At least 4,000 medium rifles, 300 shell guns, 500 American submachine guns, at least 100 Czech light machine guns, 36 heavy machine guns, 36 82-mm mortars, and 12 75-mm mountain guns. There are more than a million rounds of ammunition of all kinds, and there are more than 8,000 shells, more than 40,000 grenades, and thousands of pounds of yellow explosives."
"Oh my god, this is simply the equipment of a Brigade A, and it is a well-equipped Brigade A. Go, go and send a message to the commander and commissar, tell them the good news, and also, send a small detachment of troops, guard the warehouse, and no one will be allowed to enter without my orders. Liu Xiaogang ordered solemnly to the squadron leader behind him.
"Yes, Captain, don't worry!" The squadron leader replied. In this way, a long telegram was sent from Yunzhong Mountain in the plains to Zhangjiazhuang in Jindong, the headquarters of Jindong.
"Commander, political commissar, good news, great news, Liu Xiaogang called back." Chief of Staff Li Qing shouted loudly and ran into the conference room.
"What, Liu Xiaogang called back, quick, chief of staff, hurry up and read it out!" Liu Hua also said excitedly when he heard the words of the chief of staff.
"Report to the commander, political commissar, the detachment I led arrived at the boundary of the Yunzhong Mountain in the plain on the tenth day, and found a very hidden valley in the Yunzhong Mountain as the camp of our army. Then, the entire squad divided into 5 squads to search throughout the clouds and mountains, but found no trace. But last night, a soldier collecting firewood suddenly discovered that there was a cave in the steep wall around our camp, and after reconnaissance, this cave was the arsenal that our army had been looking for, and now the list of arsenal materials is as follows."
"Please, commander, political commissar, after reading the list, give the squad an order for the next move. Squad leader, Liu Xiaogang. ”
"Haha, Commander, I didn't expect you to be right, Yan Xishan is good to his troops, I really didn't expect so much, this is a standard equipment of my A brigade, now we have equipment for the expansion of the Reading Division, Commander, Captain Liu asked us to give him the next plan of action, what do you think?" The political commissar said with a smile.
"Political commissar, I didn't expect that Yan Xishan would store so many arms there. It's cheaper for us now. However, political commissar, it is a problem to bring back so many arms! Liu Hua said with emotion.
"Well, now there are only 50 people in Liu Xiaogang's place, and it can't play any role at all." After listening to Liu Hua's words, the political commissar also sighed.
"Fifty people, or the elite of the special operations team, by the way, there is a way. Chief of Staff, immediately send a telegram to Liu Xiaogang, asking him to leave a certain amount of troops to defend the arsenal, scatter all the troops, reconnoiter the deployment of the army in the plain area, and see if there are any cars, I am useful. ”
"Wait a minute, Chief of Staff." Liu Hua stopped the chief of staff who was about to leave.
"I also want to tell Liu Xiaogang and let him find out the enemy's garrisons in various parts of the plain." Liu Xiaogang then ordered.
"Commander, what are you?" Listening to Liu Hua's two orders in succession, Political Commissar Guan Xiangying asked suspiciously.
"Hehe, political commissar, I asked Liu Xiaogang to find us a car to transport these ammunition, otherwise so many ammunition, if we only rely on manpower to transport, when will we transport it." Besides, our automobile company has also trained a lot of fighters, and it is time for the automobile company to be strengthened. Liu Hua replied with a smile.
"But, Commander, if we use a car, aren't our actions completely exposed to the devil's vision?" The commissar was even more confused.
"Political commissar, who said that we are going to hide, I will march under the nose of the devil this time." Liu Hua replied rhetorically.
"Commander, you're not joking with me, if we take the road, we will pass through two county towns and several towns along the way. I estimate that there are at least 3,000 devil soldiers, and we march under their noses, commander, that's not how it is joked! The political commissar couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Commissar, do you think I'm a joker? Communicator, inform the commander of the cavalry battalion, Wang Hu, to come to the command and have a task. Liu Hua ordered to the communicator at the door. After a while, Wang Hu came to the command headquarters.
Seeing Wang Hu, Liu Hua was not polite, and without waiting for him to speak, Liu Hua began to order.
"Battalion Commander Wang, now give your cavalry battalion a task, immediately dispatch, reconnoiter the strength of all the strongholds along the way from the base area to the plain, if you encounter a small group of devils, eat them on the spot, and if you encounter a big one, you will take a detour, give you two days, and you must investigate the specific situation of the garrison clearly. There is no confidence to complete the task. ”
"Report to the commander, commissar, cavalry battalion resolutely accomplishes the task." After listening to Liu Hua's words, Wang Hu shouted loudly.
"Okay, let's go as soon as possible." After Liu Hua finished speaking, he waved his hand to Wang Hu.
"Commander, what do you think, the more I listen, the more mysterious it becomes, tell me quickly, otherwise I will always feel uneasy in my heart." The political commissar next to him still showed a worried look.
"Don't worry, political commissar, there will definitely be no problems, you just see, this time I will definitely bring back these weapons and ammunition intact, and I will also bring back a few cars by the way to expand our car transportation company." Liu Hua still said with a smile.
"Commander, don't sell me the guanzi, say it quickly." The political commissar was still not satisfied with Liu Hua's answer.
"Hehe, commissar, don't worry, I'll tell you"
"Okay, commander, it is really a good way, in this way, it has once again deepened our influence in the minds of the people, and also opened up a situation for opening up the situation in northern Jinbei. Well, that's a good idea. After listening to Liu Hua's story, the political commissar shouted excitedly.
