"Division Commander, why don't you take command of this battle?"

"I'm here to help you?"

Li Yunlong looked at the division commander and said.

The division commander asked, "Let me ask you, how many weapons and ammunition have you prepared?"

Li Yunlong replied truthfully: "There are about more than 2 million bullets, more than 50,000 artillery shells, and more than 60,000 grenades."

In order to severely damage or even kill the 2nd Division of the Japanese Army, in addition to the 48 cannons transferred back by Li Yunlong, there were also 36 cannons of the divisional artillery regiment.

These 84 cannons were prepared with 2 base shells, that is, more than 16,000 rounds.

Add to that more than 30,000 shells prepared by 200 mortars, for a total of more than 50,000 shells.

And that's not even counting grenades, grenades, and rockets, which add up to more.

Although it is not necessary to shoot all of them with so many shells, it is necessary to be prepared, after all, this is a Japanese army division plus a puppet army division.

After all, this is an adaptation of the permanent guards division, and the emperor's guards still respect it.

The 36 cannons of the artillery regiment directly under the headquarters were taken away by the boss and the chief of staff and went to besiege the 36th Wing of the Japanese army.

"So much ammo?"

The division commander's gaze suddenly became a little surprised and fiery.

After a pause, the division commander waved his hand again: "Forget it, if no one in my command reimburses me for ammunition, I won't rob your kid of command."

Although the division commander also wanted to command such a big battle, in order to enjoy it, he lost the opportunity for reimbursement of weapons and ammunition.

It's equivalent to picking up sesame seeds and losing watermelon, which is not worth it.

"Okay then, division commander, you just rest here, see how I beat him***, what the emperor's guards, our Eighth Route Army is the emperor's guards."

Li Yunlong was secretly happy in his heart, the division commander didn't want his command, so he could let go of his hands and feet.

However, on the surface, he pretended to have a slightly regretful expression for the division commander, and expressed his position at the same time

"I won't look at it, I'll leave you two regiments of reserves." The division commander said, "The other two regiments, I will take them to support the head of the headquarters."

Li Yunlong knew that the 36th Wing of the Japanese Army was a hard stubble, so he said, "Division commander, you can bring the other two regiments with you, I have enough troops, and I don't need reserves."

At present, he has four trump cards in his hands: air support, 84 guns of 75 mm caliber or more, more than 200 mortars, and the main force of the new regiment.

Coupled with the superiority in troops, there is plenty of ammunition.

With this configuration, if he can't kill the 2nd Guards Division of the Japanese Army, Li Yunlong will simply go home and coax the child.

"Okay then." The division commander nodded, patted Li Yunlong on the shoulder, said a few words of encouragement, and then turned around and left the headquarters of the Taihang Column.

Seeing the division commander turn over and leave on his horse, Li Yunlong turned around and returned to the map, pointed to the map and said:

"Huzi, pass my order to set up the mortar position in this position, and here and here."

Huang Erhu looked at the map, remembered the position of the mortar, turned around and issued the order with a high-power walkie-talkie.

More than half an hour passed.

A mortar unit of more than 200 people climbed the hill behind Huojiazhuang.

The location of Huojiazhuang is halfway up the mountain, and the opposite side is the intersection of the road that enters the Huangyadong Arsenal.

At this time, Huojiazhuang was empty, and the main force of Ding Wei's 1st attack group was ambushed on the mountain behind Huojiazhuang.

Ding Wei's headquarters is also located here, and the location here is also excellent, once the battle starts, it can overlook the entire battlefield.

I watched the artillerymen of the new regiment carrying more than 60 mortars to the ridge line at the top of the mountain, and there was a steady stream of logisticians carrying ammunition boxes up behind.

When these artillerymen came to the ridge anticline of the ridge of the mountain, they set up their guns one after another, aimed them at the road below the mountain with their thumbs, and then adjusted their shooting to Zhuyuan.

Seeing this scene, Ding Wei was shocked, where did Li Yunlong get so many mortars and shells?

Ding Wei called the artillery company commander to him and asked him, "You

Where did the regimental commander get so many mortars and shells?"

His 1st Assault Group consisted of four infantry regiments, and before the start of the war, Li Yunlong replenished each regiment with eight mortars, and now an average of 10 mortars.

Coupled with these more than 60 mortars, he has more than 100 mortars here, a proper mortar group.

"Report to Regiment Commander Ding, the director of the arsenal Cheng lent it to our regiment."

The commander of the artillery company answered truthfully.

"Borrowed..."

Ding Wei showed a pity on his face, if these mortars belonged to Li Yunlong, he could ask him for 2 or 30 after the war.

After all, Li Yunlong has so many artillery in a regiment, and he can't use so many mortars, unless he has one mortar per person.

Ding Wei's tone was solemn: "Go, wait for the devil to come later, and beat him hard."

"Yes!" The commander of the artillery company straightened up and turned to direct the artillerymen to set up the artillery.

Looking at the rows of mortars and mountains of shell boxes on the anti-slope at the ridge line, Ding Wei looked expectant.

Good guy, he's so fucking rich, enough for a devil to drink a pot.

Although the 60mm mortar is only a company-platoon level support weapon, it is used in large quantities and is extremely powerful.

Not far from the headquarters, the commanders and fighters of the 1st Attack Group also looked excited.

With so many mortars used intensively, it is the first time that many fighters have seen them, which is much richer than the devil.

Not only Ding Wei's 1st Attack Group, but also Kong Jie's 2nd Attack Group and Cheng Shifa's 3rd Attack Group also received more than 30 mortars each with enhanced firepower.

However, due to the critical position of the 1st Assault Group, which can take care of the entire battlefield, he has more mortars here.

……

"The forward search team reports that it has arrived in the area of Huojiazhuang."

"Blocked by a small group of troops from the Eighth Road, which has planted a lot of mines on the main road, the search wing is advancing."

Two hours later, the headquarters of the 2nd Guards Division of the Japanese Army, Chief of Staff Nakazawa Province Ichizo reported to Kunomura Momoyo.

Kunomura Momoyo looked at the map, and his expression moved slightly: "Yo Xi, the search wing is only 3 kilometers away from the periphery of the Eighth Route Arsenal."

"Yes!" "Follow the main road all the way to the west, and then climb over two more hills, and you can reach the periphery of the Eighth Route Arsenal."

Subsequently, Zhongze Province brought another map and said: "Division commander, this is according to Wang Fugui and others, the map drawn by the operational staff of the Imperial Army about the Hongyadong Arsenal of the Eighth Route Army, this is Huangya Cave, which is a steep stone wall, and according to the survey of the aviation force, the Eighth Route Arsenal is located in the cave in the middle of the stone wall."

"Next to Huangya Cave is Shuiyao Mountain, surrounded by mountains, and in the middle is a basin."

"On the other side is the first line of heaven marked on the map, and when the 36th Wing arrives, it will attack the Eighth Route Arsenal from the direction of the first line of sky."

"Attack from both sides with our 2nd Guards Division and take the Eighth Route Arsenal in one fell swoop."

"Yo Si!" Kunomura Momoyo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he nodded:

"Just half an hour ago, Commander Shinozuka sent a telegram that, according to the information, the equipment in the arsenal of the Eighth Road is still there, and the workers have not escaped."

Nakazawa stared at each other, and his tone was indifferent: "Now the eighth road can't run even if you want to."

……

After the search wing of the 2nd Guards Division arrived at Huojiazhuang, it turned around and continued to search and attack.

Just now, the search wing was attacked by about a battalion of the Eighth Route Army.

The search wing reimbursed three more Type 95 tanks.

This time was different from the past, and the attack firepower of the Eighth Route was very ferocious, and as soon as it came up, grenadiers and mortars were waiting for it.

There were also the ferocious anti-tank weapons, which smashed at the first sight of firepower, and if it had not been for the timely support of the 3rd Wing, the search wing estimated that there would have been few casualties left.

Jinzhong Wuyi didn't know that this was just an ordinary company of the new regiment of the Eighth Route Army.

see

The devil's support troops arrived, and the company commander did not love to fight and chose to retreat directly.

When the devils opened firepower, infantry artillery, grenadiers and other firepower smashed over, and when they rushed up again, the Eighth Route Army had already run away.

And the dozens of devils who rushed to the position flew into the sky with a violent explosion.

The soldiers of the engineer company of the new regiment planted a lot of explosives on the position, and the smokeless gunpowder explosives produced by their own arsenal were packed with hand grenades.

Explosives and grenades wrapped around detonators and detonated with detonators modified from telephones are no less powerful than 105-caliber shells.

The 3rd Wing of the 2nd Guards Division followed behind the search wing.

Long marching lines pulled out queues at least 1 km long.

Tadao Matsui, the commander of the 3rd Wing, pushed the top cover of the Type 97 tank hard, poked his head out, and raised his binoculars to look at the search wing in front of him.

I saw that the search wing had stopped and was clearing mines.

Tadao Matsui looked at the surrounding terrain with a telescope, the terrain here was indeed dangerous, with mountains on both sides, and the Japanese army was in the canyon at this time.

However, Tadao Matsui did not think that there would be an ambush on the Eighth Road.

Because in the past two days, the Japanese army passed through an unknown number of such canyons, and the Taihang Mountains in the southeast of Shanxi Province were criss-crossed and ravines, and there were countless such dangerous terrains.

What's more, the main force of the Eighth Route is attacking the 37th Division, and even if there is an ambush, it is only a small scale and there is nothing to be afraid of.

Suddenly, Tadao Matsui saw a village halfway up the mountain, which should be Huojiazhuang from the map.

"Go to a squad and burn that village down."

Tadao Matsui pointed to Huojiazhuang and ordered the adjutant who was riding on a horse behind the tank.

The little devil's three-light battle, even if the eight roads and the people in the village run away, the village will be burned down.

With Matsui Tadao's order, a squad of dozens of devils rushed towards Huojiazhuang halfway up the mountain with rifles.

Ding Wei, who was at the headquarters at the top of the mountain, saw this scene and tightened his chrysanthemum, if the ambush position was discovered by the devils, it would be a big problem, and now there is only 1 wing of devils who have entered the ambush circle.

Fortunately, when the devil climbed halfway up the mountain, he stopped his advance, sprinkled some gasoline and diesel in each house, and lit it with matches.

A few minutes later, the entire Huojiazhuang was on fire, and the roofs of each house were on fire, and black smoke rose into the air.

"These ***!"

Ding Wei saw this scene in the command headquarters, and his tone was awe-inspiring: "If you don't kill all of you today, Lao Tzu won't be surnamed Ding!"
