I am a wolf warrior

"Principal." Chen Bulei said respectfully, "The article by the Central News Agency has also received enthusiastic responses overseas, especially the overseas Chinese in San Francisco and New York. The donation of 200 million US dollars has been raised in just two days. He even handed over the money to Madam face to face."

"Two million dollars? And have you given the money to Madam?"

Chang Kaishen was overjoyed when he heard the words: "Great, this is really great."

After a pause, Chang Kaishen said to Xiao Tongzi again: "Han Jie, this time you have made great contributions to the party and the country."

"Don't dare." Xiao Tongzi said modestly, "The humble job is just doing what should be done."

Chapter 510 Let Xiao Wang Command Instead of Me

Anhua County, Shanxi Northwest Column Command.

It took Ma Yuan and Chen Mingli two days to finally set up the sand table.

By the way, Ma Yuan and Chen Mingli have been transferred from the headquarters to work at the Shanxi Northwest Column Headquarters, and have been appointed by the brigade commander as the section chief and deputy section chief of the column operations section respectively.

As for Wang Ye, he has been promoted to chief of staff.

However, Wang Ye, the chief of staff of the column, is a typical low-profile.

Generally speaking, the chief of staff of the column headquarters is at the brigade level, at least at the deputy brigade level, but Wang Ye, the chief of staff, is still at the regiment level, on the same level as Ma Yuan and Chen Mingli.

But then again, the ranks and positions of the Eighth Route Army have not been standardized at this time. For example, does the column belong to the division level or is it between the division level and the brigade level?Also, is the detachment at the brigade level or between the brigade level and the regiment level?There is no clear regulation.

In a word, it's all messy.

And our party cadres don't pay much attention to this.

"Xiao Ma, Xiao Chen, you did a good job on the sand table," said the brigade commander.

"Commander, this is our job." Ma Yuan said, "If we can't even set up a sand table, then we'd better go home and plant sweet potatoes."

"Hey, you are really out of breath when you say you are fat?" The brigade commander scolded with a smile.

"That's it." Ma Yuan grinned and said, "Don't even look at who is the commander of our Shanxi Northwest Column?"

"Stop flattering me." The brigade commander scolded with a smile, "I'm not Li Yunlong, so I don't like it."

"Brigade Commander, what you said is not objective." Li Yunlong said with a resentful face, "I don't like other people's flattering either."

"Come on, I don't know you yet?" The brigade commander cursed with a smile, then turned his gaze to Wang Ye, and said, "Xiao Wang, let's get started and talk about your considerations for the next stage of work."

After resting and celebrating for several days, I finally entered the next stage.

"Yes." Wang Ye said, "The next stage of work should be defensive deployment."

"Hey, why is it defense?" Li Yunlong became anxious when he heard it, "Shouldn't it be to continue to attack?"

After a pause, Li Yunlong continued: "Offense is the best defense. Since we can take down Anhua and wipe out the No.60 Ninth Division of the Japanese Army, then we can go on to take down Taiyuan and wipe out the Taiyuan defenders!"

"I support attacking Taiyuan again." Kong Jie said, "Anyway, there is only one alliance in Taiyuan at this time."

"Attack Taiyuan again?" The brigade commander said angrily, "It's easy for you to say, what are you going to use to attack Taiyuan?"

"Then you can fight as you like, you can fight as you want." Li Yunlong said, "We beat Anhua in the same way, and fight Taiyuan again in this way."

The brigade commander asked back: "Are there enough troops?"

"Strength?" Li Yunlong said, "Although our Shanxi Northwest Column suffered more than 2 casualties in this battle, there are still more than 2 people? It is enough to fight Taiyuan. As Lao Kong said just now, the little devils in Taiyuan are the only ones who can fight against Taiyuan." There is only one wing, we have more than [-] people to fight Taiyuan, seven times the strength of the troops, are we afraid that we will not be able to win?"

The brigade commander said: "Even if the troops are sufficient, is the ammunition sufficient?"

"Ammunition?" Li Yunlong was stunned for a moment, then asked again, "Is there not enough ammunition?"

The brigade commander turned his gaze to Xing Zhiguo and said, "Xing Zhiguo, tell everyone how many supplies are left in the logistics department?"

Xing Zhiguo, who also served as the head of the column's logistics, nodded and said, "Although our Shanxi Northwest Column has won an unprecedented victory in this battle, it even wiped out a division of the Japanese army in an organized way..."

Li Yunlong became impatient and interrupted: "Stop talking nonsense, just tell me how much ammunition is left?"

Although Xing Zhiguo felt a little embarrassed, he had a rare good temper and didn't get angry.

At the moment, Xing Zhiguo said: "As of now, there is about one base number of ammunition left in American equipment and equipment, and slightly more in Japanese equipment, but it will not exceed two bases. As for various types of ammunition, the number may vary. , but generally there are only one or two base ammunition left, by the way, there will be slightly more shells.”

"What? There are only one or two basic ammunition left?" Li Yunlong was stunned.

Kong Jie and the others also looked astonished. They really didn't expect that there was only this little ammunition left. Before the war, they had five to ten base ammunition.

After a long while, Li Yunlong said: "Old Xing, you can't make a mistake, right?"

"No." Xing Zhiguo shook his head and said, "I have counted many times."

"No, I must have made a mistake." Kong Jie also said, "How could it be possible to consume so much?"

The brigade commander said: "Is it strange that the consumption is high? This is an offensive operation. Don't use the previous sparrow warfare and guerrilla warfare to measure the consumption of a large-scale offensive operation like the Northwest Shanxi Campaign. How come Japan can't fight after two years of fighting?"

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie immediately collapsed like deflated balls.

If there are only one or two base ammunition left, it is really impossible to fight Taiyuan.

But the brigade commander said: "Even if we still have enough ammunition, we still can't fight Taiyuan, because the Taiyue Military Region and Taihang Military Region are no longer capable of fighting for us again."

Li Yunlong said solemnly: "Brigade Commander, are the Taihang Military Region and Taiyue Military Region exhausted?"

"What do you think?" The brigade commander asked back, "The Taiyue Military Region and Taihang Military Region held back the two main divisions of the Japanese army for three whole days and nights, and the pressure will not be much less than that of our Shanxi Northwest Column."

"Without the desperate blocking of Taiyue Military Region and Taihang Military Region, there would be no victory this time."

Speaking of this meal, the brigade commander said again: "Li Yunlong, now you still fucking object to handing over part of the captured weapons and equipment to the Taihang Military Region?"

"Brigade Commander, I was wrong." Li Yunlong said hastily, "It's because I'm too small."

After a pause, Li Yunlong said again: "In order to express my gratitude to the brother troops of Taihang Military Region and Taiyue Military Region, I have no objection even if we hand over our beautiful equipment."

"Really?" asked the brigade commander, "Are you really willing to hand in the beautiful equipment?"

"Really, really, I have no objection." Li Yunlong said, "It's not often said that gold shines everywhere, and our Shanxi Northwest Column will fight devils even with fire sticks, and it will never be cowardly. "

"Well, that's what you said, don't regret it." After speaking, the brigade commander turned his head and glanced at Wang Ye.

Li Yunlong's heart skipped a beat when he heard that, didn't he?no?The brigade commander won't really hand in the American equipment, will he?Brigadier, I just said it casually, why do you take it seriously?

Li Yunlong scratched his head anxiously, but he was too embarrassed to repent.

The brigade commander ignored Li Yunlong, and said to Wang Ye, "Xiao Wang, keep talking."

"Yes." Wang Ye responded, and said again, "The main work of the next stage is the defensive deployment, and this defensive deployment is fundamentally different from the previous defensive deployment."

"The essential difference?" Kong Jie asked, "What's the difference?"

Wang Yedao: "The previous defensive deployment was to protect the people and preserve the vitality as much as possible, but this time the defensive deployment is still the first priority to protect the people, but the second priority is no longer to preserve the vitality. Instead, we must ensure the safety of the Wanmadu Industrial Zone!"

"Ah?" Kong Jie said, "Isn't that a passive defense?"

"Yes, passive defense is not enough." Li Yunlong said, "The chairman said that if you lose your land, you will lose all your land. Xiao Wang, we are the Eighth Route Army, we cannot make the mistakes of the Kuomintang army, that would be stupid, and we cannot do stupid things."

"Shut up." The brigade commander said, "Can you let Xiao Wang finish talking?"

Li Yunlong and Kong Jie stopped talking, waiting for Wang Ye to give the reason.

Wang Ye went on to say: "Because after the Wanmadu Industrial Zone is completed, it will be able to continuously produce 7.92mm and 7.62mm caliber Mauser rifle bullets, as well as 11.4mm caliber Thomson submachine gun bullets. The American equipment in the column will not become a decoration."

"And as long as the technicians are in place,"

"It is absolutely possible to expand two more production lines for 6.5mm caliber and 7.7mm caliber Arisaka rifle bullets."

"In the later period, we can even expand the shell production lines of 50mm caliber grenade, 70mm caliber grenade, and 75mm caliber grenade. In this way, not only our Shanxi Northwest Column, the entire [-]th Division, and even the entire Eighth Route Army in North China will no longer have to worry about running out of ammunition. Available."

Hearing this, everyone was immediately refreshed.

Wang Ye had actually said this a long time ago, but no one cared.

Because Li Yunlong and the others felt that it was too far away, but they suddenly discovered today that the arsenal seems to be within reach, and they can really start building the arsenal.

If this arsenal is completed, the end of the devil will almost come.

Ding Wei said: "Xiao Wang, if such a large-scale arsenal is really built, then our Northwest Shanxi base will really become a thorn in the flesh of the Japanese army in North China."

"That's for sure." Wang Ye said, "But in order to build an arsenal capable of reversing the entire situation of the War of Resistance, appropriate sacrifices are worthwhile."

Hearing this, the Brigadier frowned.

Appropriate sacrifice?The question is how much sacrifice is appropriate?

Wang Ye quickly revealed the answer: "At least it must be able to withstand the attack of the four divisions of the Japanese army for a month!"

"What? A one-month attack by the four divisions?" Not only the brigade commander, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei, and Kong Jie all felt their hearts sink when they heard this. This task is really not ordinary.

Wang Ye pointed to the sand table and said, "Everyone, please look here, this is Wanmadu."

"If the Japanese army wants to destroy the Wanmadu industrial park, they have only two options. They can either send a small group of troops to cross Crouching Tiger Mountain or Jiugong Mountain and enter Northwest Shanxi. Harassment is possible, as a true offensive tactic is highly unlikely, unless they're crazy."

"The second option for the Japanese army is to advance along the road, so there are four routes."

"The Japanese army can launch a centripetal attack on our Northwest Shanxi base at the same time from Taiyuan in the south, Datong in the north, Shuiquan in the northeast, and Yangquan in the southeast."

"Considering the constraints of the terrain, the strength of troops in North China, and the current international situation, I think the Japanese army will mobilize at most four divisions to attack us, and the time will most likely not exceed a month."

"If more troops are mobilized, or if it lasts for more than a month, the entire North China will be shaken."

After a pause, Wang Ye continued: "So our defensive deployment must ensure that it can withstand the attack of the four divisions of the Japanese army for a month. If this cannot be done, it is not suitable to build an arsenal, because it is useless to build it. "

The brigade commander said: "But the problem is that the high-level Japanese army may once again send more troops to the Shanxi battlefield."

On this point, the head of the headquarters had a very clear judgment, and the brigade commander mentioned it again.

Wang Yedao: "This will inevitably have a great impact on the entire strategic planning of the Japanese army, and then affect the situation in the Pacific battlefield and even the entire Asian battlefield. The Northwest Detachment is also totally worth it."

"Well, this is the truth." The brigade commander agreed.

After a pause, the brigade commander said again: "Then let's talk about your defense deployment concept."

Wang Yedao: "Considering that the Japanese army has a lot of heavy equipment and must use the road to maneuver, we only need to hold the road firmly."

"I chose four key nodes."

"They are Shazhukou, Yezhugou, Yelangyu and Xiji stronghold."

"I plan to build a medium-sized fortress in each of these four key locations to block the Japanese troops approaching from Taiyuan, Datong, Shuiquan, and Yangquan respectively."

"As long as these four fortresses are not lost, the Japanese army will not be able to enter Northwest Shanxi at all."

Speaking of this, Wang Ye couldn't help feeling a little regretful: "It's a pity that the cement factory equipment was not obtained from Taiyuan last time. If a cement factory can be built and cement can be produced, I have the confidence to build a cement factory in the outskirts of the Northwest Shanxi base area." No less fortified than the mighty Maginot Line."

"I don't need to talk about the disappearance." The brigade commander waved his hand, "If we build a fortress based on the existing conditions, how long can we hold off the Japanese army?"

"That depends on how many troops and how many heavy artillery the Japanese army mobilized."

Wang Yedao: "If it is the four divisions mentioned before, and they are all mountain divisions, then it is entirely possible to rely on these four fortresses to block the Japanese army for a month."

The brigade commander said: "Can you really hold on for a month?"

"It's really possible." Wang Ye nodded and said, "We have already calculated repeatedly."

In any case, the Shanxi Northwest Column has three detachments, [-] elite.

Even if the Japanese army mobilized four divisions, it would only be [-] to [-], which is twice the strength of the troops.

If it weren't for the serious shortage of ammunition reserves, Wang Ye would even have the confidence to stick to it.

Wang Ye said again: "However, in order to prevent accidents, we still need to build a second line of defense. The second line of defense is the three counties of Nao County, Anhua County, and Ping'an County."

"Because these three counties are like three locks, firmly locking the roads in all directions."

"As long as our troops hold on to these three counties, the Japanese army will not be able to reach Wanmadu, nor will they be able to threaten the safety of our industrial zone."

After a pause, he said again: "Brigade Commander, this is the defense deployment concept."

"Okay." The brigade commander nodded and asked everyone, "Anyone have any additional comments?"

The cadres present shook their heads one after another. Among these people, Li Yunlong and Kong Jie could only lead troops to fight, Zhao Gang was good at political and ideological work, Xing Zhiguo was his assistant, and only Ding Wei knew a little bit about everything, but for Wang Ye's There are no different opinions on this defense deployment concept.

"Since there are no different opinions, let's do what Xiao Wang said." The brigade commander nodded and said, "Now let me assign each person's tasks in detail."

"Li Yunlong is in charge of the construction of the Yelangyu Fortress."

"Zhao Gang is in charge of the Xiji Fortress, Ding Wei is in charge of the Yezhugou Fortress, and Kong Jie is in charge of the Killing Pig Fortress."

Speaking of this meal, the brigade commander said again: "Xiao Wang, your task is heavier. You are in charge of the construction of the industrial zone. You must strive to build the arsenal in the shortest possible time."

Wang Ye snapped to attention, and replied solemnly: "I promise to complete the task."

At this time, Li Yunlong said with a bitter face: "Brigade Commander, our old Li doesn't know how to build fortresses."

"If you don't know how to repair, you still don't know how to learn?" The brigade commander said angrily, "Who is born to be able to repair fortresses?"
