Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

The next morning,

The sky was overcast and fine snowflakes began to fall.

A convoy has appeared on the road on the south side of Mulan County, all tanks, armored vehicles and trucks!

The convoy headed east to Tanjiadian Town and began to cross the Songhua River southward. There is a highway bridge here, which was built by the Japanese!

On the south bank of the bridge,

It’s the territory of Bin County!

At this moment, the biting cold wind whistled past, causing pain on people's faces.

On this wide and deserted road, more than 20 Eighth Route Army soldiers were already ready for battle.

They were wearing slightly old khaki coarse cloth clothes. The cloth looked very rough and had many patches on it, as if they had been through countless battles.

Despite this, the cold still mercilessly attacked everyone's body. These brave and fearless soldiers were shivering and their teeth were chattering, but they always stayed at their posts. In order to resist the severe cold, they kept stamping their feet on the road, trying to warm their bodies a little; at the same time, they kept rubbing their hands, hoping to bring themselves a little warmth.

A soldier said,

"Platoon leader, let's go back to the village! It's too cold here!" It would definitely be more comfortable to go back to the house, after all, there would be no wind and there would be a warm kang!

"No, the company commander said that the people coming here today are here to help us fight the bandits! We must give them a good reception!" said a thin officer. He was Bai Hao, the platoon leader of the Eighth Route Army!

"Platoon Leader, thank you for the reception. We don't have to wait here. Why don't you go back and I'll take a squad to stay!"

There was a rumbling sound.

On the bridge,

A tank has appeared.

A red flag was flying on the tank, with a sickle, an axe, and a yellow five-pointed star on it! Now Yin Xinjun has begun to deliberately and gradually take the initiative to connect with the organization!

There is a white border on the side of the chess piece, and on the top is the head of the King of Hell, with a few majestic black characters embroidered below the head.

"First Assault Group!"

This flag was designed by Yin Xinjun, but this title was thought up by Tang Yantian himself! As a young man full of passion and drive, Tang Yantian wants to be the first in everything!

The tanks crossed the bridge very slowly.

Worried that the bridge's load capacity is insufficient,

Only one car can pass at a time.

One tank ran to the south bank, and the second one could get on the bridge!

Arriving in front of the Eighth Route Army, the first tank stopped.

An officer jumped off the tank, wearing a brand new gray cotton suit, a dog-skin hat, a pair of brown field boots, and a holster for a Browning automatic pistol hanging around his waist!

Bai Hao sighed.

He walked over quickly, saluted and said,

"Bai Hao, the third platoon leader of the 33st company of the 2nd battalion of the 1rd regiment of the Jireliao Military Region! We have been ordered to welcome your troops. Our company commander is waiting in the town!"

The officer immediately returned the greeting and said,

"Cheng Yue, the commander of the 1st Tank Company of the Tank Battalion of the Mulan County Security Command, has been ordered to come and assist in suppressing the bandits!"

This time, the bandit suppression

Yin Xinjun convened a meeting with the heads of various departments early in the morning. At the end of the meeting, it was decided to send two armored infantry battalions, a tank battalion, and an artillery company to Bin County to assist Guo Qiang's troops in carrying out the county-wide bandit suppression operation! The entire bandit suppression operation was under the unified command of Deputy Commander Tang Yantian!

Cheng Yue continued,

"Our company is the vanguard, and the main force led by Deputy Commander Tang of our security command will arrive in Bin County this morning!"

In the county town, in the regiment compound,

Guo Qiang stood in the yard, looking at the snowflakes in the sky with deep worry in his eyes. They had only prepared one-third of their winter cotton clothes, and the troops had no funds. All the way north, they mainly relied on fighting the local tyrants, which could only solve part of the problem!

After arriving in Bin County, the team was busy suppressing bandits, but Guo Qiang soon discovered that the bandits here were even better equipped than their Eighth Route Army, and they were much richer!

Fortunately, he got in touch with the old company commander. Today was the day he agreed to send troops and deliver supplies. Guo Qiang's heart was full of anticipation!

Inside the room, above a coal stove,

The kettle was humming and steaming.

on the chair,

Ji Yuan was sitting by the coal stove, smoking one cigarette after another, feeling restless and anxious.

When the old company commander was leaving yesterday, he kept them in suspense and did not say what he would give them today. Their regiment was not short of light weapons, but heavy weapons. Commander Zeng ordered all the artillery to be concentrated together and left for the main force, because these local troops were lucky enough to know how to use mortars, and basically no one knew how to use artillery!

Whenever he thought of the Western Expedition, when his fire platoon had dozens of cannons and they could not find any opponents in the entire Hexi Corridor, his heart was filled with ups and downs and excitement!

Ji Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

"It would be great if time could go back!"

He picked up the kettle and started filling the thermos on the table!

Guo Qiang walked in, picked up the teacup, and just took a sip!

There were hurried footsteps at the door, and a soldier came running.

"Commander, Political Commissar, they have arrived at the North Gate, and Chief of Staff Lin is waiting to greet them at the gate!"

There was great surprise in the eyes of the two, and they said at the same time,

"go!"

The north gate of the county town,

Trucks drove into the city.

Chief of Staff Lin Tao led a few soldiers, trotting ahead, dancing with excitement. The convoy arrived at the gate of a barracks, which was the base of their regiment.

Lin Tao shouted,

"Everyone, come out and move the supplies!"

The trucks stopped, 15 in total, each loaded with supplies, and four of them were towing 75mm infantry guns!

An officer jumped down from the first truck, holding a notebook in his hand.

"Chief of Staff Lin, this is the inventory of supplies. Please take a look. Please sign for me after you have finished counting. I have to go back and report!"

"Okay, okay, please wait a moment and take the comrades to the house to drink some water!" Lin Tao said excitedly.

The list clearly states,

Four 75mm mountain cannons, each equipped with 300 rounds of ammunition!

1000 sets of cotton clothes!

20 Type heavy machine guns, heavy machine gun bullets fired!

20 grenade launchers and 5000 grenade shells!

Rice, sorghum rice, flour, millet and other grains!

900 boxes of canned food!

The 33rd Regiment was not short of light weapons, they had already got a batch from Chen Chao. What they lacked was heavy weapons! Today, they were all supplied at once!

Lin Tao was excited.

The old leader is still the closest to us, and the old company commander is still the omnipotent old company commander, and it seems that he never lacks supplies!

At the city gate, Guo Qiang saw groups of tanks and armored vehicles, totaling more than sixty, and more than fifty trucks!

Groups of soldiers jumped off the vehicles carrying various weapons and stood in line!

An officer in his twenties was directing the operations.

Soon an Eighth Route Army officer brought Guo Qiang and Ji Yuan over.

"Deputy Commander Tang, our Captain Guo and Political Commissar Ji are here!"

Both sides saluted each other and shook hands!

Tang Yantian said,

"Captain Guo, Political Commissar Ji, 15 trucks of supplies have already entered the city. Those trucks are also for you and are not on the list. In addition, our commander said that we will provide you with 20 artillerymen and 15 drivers!

Oh, and there is one more thing. After the bandit suppression is completed, he will hold a technical training class in Mulan, and invites your group to send people to participate!"

Guo Qiang and Ji Yuan almost cried!

"Thank you. You don't know that your commander is my old leader and a close family member!"
