Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

After suffering severe damage, the 41st Division remained steadfast in the Xin County area and never dared to launch any offensive again.

They used fortifications to defend themselves and confronted Kong Jie's second team.

The sudden news led to the transfer of the main force of the 41st Division to go out to sea to participate in the Pacific War.

On the one hand, the Japanese were putting on a show, claiming that the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade was still there, but on the other hand, the situation on the overseas battlefield was indeed tense.

When people are happy, they feel refreshed, but when they encounter bad luck, even drinking cold water will make their teeth ache.

A few days after the transport ship went out to sea, it encountered a storm at sea. The Japanese soldiers drawn from the 41st Division capsized on the sea and all the Japanese soldiers were swallowed by the sea.

Now, even God is helping the Japanese.

It was announced as a shipwreck and the 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade was buried in the sea.

You see, the accidental shipwreck was definitely not the collective surrender as the Eighth Route Army propaganda said.

When it is true and false, and false and true, Ding Wei even began to believe it. It is too much of a coincidence.

After he cleared the Japanese military fortress, he specially arranged for the political commissar to carry out all-round ideological education for the devils. While working in the mine, he received prisoner education.

Takeshita Shun was branded with a bad name, and the high-ranking officials within the Japanese army had already removed him from their ranks, believing him to be a criminal who betrayed the empire.

Even if they are sinners, they dare not publicize it to avoid more people knowing about this scandal.

The Japanese suffered a great loss and had to swallow their anger, but they dared not show it off at all.

Dozens of bombers were arranged to carry out indiscriminate bombing of Wucheng area to vent their dissatisfaction.

But this place had an air raid shelter built, and was equipped with some anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns. When the Japanese planes came, the anti-aircraft firepower was fully opened.

There was no loss and three planes were shot down.

Being poor also has its advantages. There are no industrial facilities and no valuables. The Japanese bombings could only destroy the houses.

The broken adobe houses were rebuilt, and the soldiers were in high spirits. They shouted slogans, sang military songs, and celebrated the recapture of the important city.

A group of traitors were paraded through the streets, denounced for their treasonous acts, and the looted supplies and food were confiscated and distributed to the masses.

Beat the landlords and divide the land, quickly grasp the situation around Wucheng, and firmly grasp this capital city, an important city in the northwest.

"Commander, the Soviet Anov is here again."

"Please come in quickly. This is my elder brother from a foreign country. He has brought me something good."

Ding Wei was extremely enthusiastic. He had just gotten a tractor factory from his big brother. After the factory building was built, he took the lead in doing some maintenance work.

They repaired the Japanese tanks and car engines, and started producing tractors at the same time.

With few raw materials and weak technology, its production capacity is limited. But its biggest role is to train skilled workers, which makes the entire production line run, and it is meaningful enough.

Anov came this time to continue exchanging some supplies, as the logistical pressure in the Far East is relatively high.

In order to ease the pressure on the Western Front and assist the Allied counterattack, the Far Eastern Army wanted to solve the logistical problems on its own.

The idea of ​​one ton for one ton was proposed.

One ton of millet, sorghum, soybeans, wheat, etc., in exchange for one ton of Japanese weapons and equipment they captured.

These include weapons such as artillery, cars, and armored vehicles, but some have been damaged and some may not be able to be driven.

These were the spoils of war during the Battle of Nomonhan, and also those snatched from the Japanese during the friction between the two sides.

The Far Eastern Army has its own equipment system. They look down on the Japanese's stuff. They take the good stuff for use, and the rest are prepared to be recycled.

They don't like it, but Ding Wei does.

Whether it is recycled or repaired, it can be used after being processed. For an agricultural country, any steel weapon is valuable.

It can be melted down to make steel, which is more valuable than grain.

This idea of ​​one ton for one ton really touched Ding Wei's heart.

Send it quickly, there are lots of millet.

To show his sincerity, when Arnov left, he first pulled three trucks with 20 tons of corn, gave Ding Wei a warm hug, and promised that the supplies would be delivered soon.

There is a gun repair shop in Wucheng. It was a factory that existed before the Anti-Japanese War. It was slightly expanded after the Japanese occupation and was used for equipment maintenance and gun repair.

Use existing equipment to repair all the guns on hand.

Of the confiscated Japanese weapons, 8% were kept as new ones, and the rest were handed over to the headquarters.

The train runs from Wucheng to Jining, and then from Jining to Xinxian area.

The Tongpu Line and Pingsui Line were fully opened, and the trains that once belonged to the Japanese began to transport supplies to the Eighth Route Army.

Li Yunlong, who was close to Xin County, stole and robbed the weapons and equipment of two battalions.

He has a lot of troops at his disposal, and they are about to be expanded to over ten thousand people.

But the brigade commander was worried and planned to split the independent regiment into three regiments. If you give Li Yunlong a detachment, you don't know what kind of trouble it will cause you.

Under the Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan Military Region, there were two ways of dealing with larger regiments: one was to reorganize them into columns, and the other was to split them into multiple regiments.

Li Yunlong's qualifications were more than enough to be reorganized into a column, but the problem was that he was too prone to getting into trouble, and his position rose and fell frequently, which affected the perceptions of the bosses.

According to the brigade commander's instructions, the independent regiment was split into two large regiments and deployed on the Zhengtai Line.

Li Yunlong's independent regiment will first be reorganized into a detachment, with five main battalions under its command, to test Li Yunlong's abilities.

"Why? When I was the regiment commander, Kong Erlangzi was the detachment commander. When I became the detachment commander, Kong Erlangzi became the column commander."

"In terms of seniority, when I was the squad leader, Kong Jie was a senior soldier, and Ding Wei was a rookie who had just joined the army."

"When I was carrying the speed machine, what were they holding? The old Hanyang-made slide."

After complaining for a while, he had to accept the brigade commander's arrangement. After all, he was really afraid of the brigade commander.

It's just a detachment. After all, it's a step up, equivalent to being promoted from regiment commander to brigade commander, which can be considered a promotion in position.

He felt uncomfortable because Kong Jie and the Suirecha Second Detachment were reorganized into the Jinzhong Column. Their combat goal was to capture Xin County and the surrounding areas of Taiyuan and send troops to the Jinzhong area.

Compared with the detachment, the column is much stronger than Li Yunlong.

In terms of position, he was one level higher than him.

Be content. Chu Yunfei has been the captain of the regiment for many years, and he is still the captain of the reinforced regiment.

The 358th Regiment of the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army, which was active in the Yunzhong Mountain area, learned a big piece of news that Li Yunlong had obtained a large number of weapons and equipment from Gang County.

Japanese weapons include Type 4 light rifles, Type rifles, grenade launchers, and old mountain cannons.

The independent detachment made a small fortune.

Chu Yunfei was not envious. He would also be able to obtain a batch of American weapons in the near future. Mr. Xipi from Shancheng personally approved the granting of an American artillery battalion, as well as submachine guns, machine guns and other American equipment to Chu Yunfei.

The call was made to Li Yunlong's command center.

"Brother Yunlong, it's time to return the weapons and equipment of my battalion to me. You have thousands of men under your command now, so you won't default on your debt, right?"

Li Yunlong didn't even need to draft a lie.

"Oh my brother Yunfei, look at my memory. I have completely forgotten this matter. I will return it to you right away."

"I really can't do that these two days. My old comrade Ding Wei wants to expand his troops and has taken a large number of weapons and equipment from me. Wait for me for a few days. I will return them to you after I defeat the Japanese in Yangquan."

Chu Yunfei snorted. Why would Ding Wei need to take equipment from you? Who are you trying to fool?
