After learning about the operating patterns of the Japanese trains, Gundam's plan immediately became clear.

The arsenal is in urgent need of this equipment.

He decided to take action tonight with the soldiers of the county brigade.

In order to increase transportation capacity, he decided to take all of the county brigade's more than 10 trucks so that the seized materials could be transported back quickly.

Gundam was also full of anticipation. He wanted to know what good things the Japanese train was transporting.

But no matter what the outcome, he is ready to deal with it.

He was not worried even if the Japanese train was empty.

At that time, he only needs to put the supplies in the system directly into the Japanese's carriage and can easily complete the "seizure".

The Zhengtai Railway, as the most important transportation line for the Japanese, carried a large amount of supplies to the front battlefield every day.

This railway is of vital importance to the Japanese.

However, the Eighth Route Army guerrillas often carried out sabotage on this railway, causing huge losses to the Japanese.

Faced with this situation, the Japanese had to strengthen patrols and defense of the railway.

………………

The night is as dark as ink, with only a few faint stars dotting the sky.

On the wide road leading to the Zhengtai Railway Line, a convoy of trucks sped past, breaking the silence of the night.

Gaoda and Li Yunlong led the soldiers of two companies of the county brigade and headed towards their destination, the Zhengtai Railway, in a truck.

"Lao Gao, is the gossip you received really reliable? Are you sure the Japanese will have important supplies on this military train?"

Gundam had a mysterious look on his face.

"Old Li, don't worry. There must be good stuff on this train of the Japanese. Let's just wait and see."

After hearing what Gundam said, most of Li Yunlong's doubts disappeared immediately.

The convoy continued to move forward.

More than an hour later, they finally arrived near the Zhengtai Railway in Yangquan area.

Gundam quickly gave the order, asking the convoy to hide the trucks to avoid being discovered by the Japanese.

Then he led the soldiers to a small hill not far from the railway line.

"Old Li,"

"We must make a quick decision in this operation. If we delay, the Japanese in Yangquan will pounce on us.

I have a plan. I will install a bomb on the railway and blow up the front of the Japanese train when it passes by. After that, it will be our time to act. "

Li Yunlong nodded.

"No problem, Lao Gao. Just tell me what you need me to do."

Gaoda continued, "Old Li, there must be guards on the Japanese train.

Your mission is to lead a company of soldiers to ambush on one side of the railway. Once I detonate the bomb and the front of the train is damaged, and the Japanese get off the train to check or fight back, you must open fire immediately and make sure to eliminate them quickly.

I will lead the soldiers of the second company to ambush on the other side, ready to respond to any emergency at any time."

"Okay, Lao Gao, I understand."

Li Yunlong accepted the task and turned around to give orders to the soldiers of the first company.

With Li Yunlong's departure, Gaoda quickly commanded the soldiers of the second company to ambush on the other side of the railway.

He personally led several elite soldiers and quietly approached the Japanese railway.

At this moment, the night is as dark as ink, and the stars are dim.

The Japanese patrol had not yet appeared, providing excellent cover for their actions.

Gundam led the soldiers and carefully dug up the soil under the railroad tracks, carefully burying the pre-made bombs there.

After all preparations were ready, they quickly retreated to a hidden position and, together with other soldiers from the county brigade, lay quietly on both sides of the railway, waiting for the arrival of the Japanese train.

Time quietly came to 10:00 pm,

Gundam looked down at the watch on his wrist and saw that the hand was pointing exactly to ten o'clock.

However, when he glanced across the dark railroad tracks, he did not see any sign of a train, not even a trace of light.

Gao Da couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Why hasn't the Japanese sent a train tonight? Is the intelligence wrong? This is really annoying. We have been so well prepared. If the train doesn't come, then all our efforts will be in vain."

At the same time, on the other side of the railway, Li Yunlong also felt something was wrong.

They had been waiting here for more than an hour, but apart from a passing Japanese patrol car, they didn't see even the shadow of a Japanese train.

"It seems that Lao Gao's information is not completely reliable." Li Yunlong muttered.

Just as everyone in the county brigade was anxiously waiting, the Japanese train stopped quietly about four kilometers away from the section where the county brigade was ambushing.

The lights of the train were particularly dazzling in the night, but at this distance, Gao Da and Li Yunlong could not see them.

Inside the train, the Japanese mechanics were busy working.

They surrounded the faulty locomotive, holding various tools in their hands and with anxious looks on their faces.

It turned out that the Japanese train suddenly broke down halfway, causing the train, which was supposed to arrive at the section where Gaoda was ambushing on time, to be forced to stop.

The train's stagnation made the Japanese very anxious because they knew that according to the plan, they should have traveled half the distance.

In the train carriage, a squadron of Japanese soldiers were on guard.

The squadron leader stood at the connection between the carriages, looking around vigilantly.

When the train suddenly stopped, he immediately and nervously ordered the soldiers to prepare for battle to prevent an ambush by the Eighth Route Army guerrillas.

However, when he learned that there was a problem with the train, the squadron leader felt a little relieved.

He came to the locomotive and asked the conductor about the maintenance status of the train.

"Conductor, how long will it take to repair the train?" the squadron leader asked anxiously.

"Captain, please rest assured that the train has been almost repaired."

The conductor replied, "We will finish the rest of the work as soon as possible. It won't take too much time. Please go back to the car and wait."

After hearing the conductor's words, the squadron leader nodded, turned around and went back to the carriage.

He conveyed the conductor's message to the soldiers and asked them to relax their guard.

At this time, the Japanese had relaxed their vigilance and were completely unaware of the impending danger.

The Japanese squadron leader sat in the dim carriage, surrounded by silence.

He looked out the car window at the dark night sky outside, and saw only a hazy moon in the sky, emitting a faint light, as if silently praying for the success of this escort mission.

Inside the train, boxes of heavy supplies were neatly stacked, including various machines and equipment.

These equipments were treasures looted by the Japanese from the Taiyuan Arsenal. They were of extremely important strategic significance to the Japanese.

The equipment will be shipped to the far northeast, where there is a huge system of factories and arsenals.

The Japanese planned to move all the machine tools and production lines looted from the Taiyuan Arsenal to the Northeast in order to manufacture more weapons and ammunition there.

These supplies are crucial to maintaining their war needs and are their indispensable war resources.
