Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry

Zhang Dabiao originally wanted to fight for the mission of blocking the enemy. In the New 1st Regiment, his battalion always took the lead in attacking. Whenever there was a dangerous battle, the first person Li Yunlong thought of was Zhang Dabiao.

But this is an independent regiment, and his troops are the weakest, with only one reinforced company and a lot of new recruits. There is no choice but to serve as a transport team.

When Shen Quan arrived at Xiaowangzhuang at a forced march, he saw Kong Hao and a special forces soldier quickly carrying ammunition to the open space outside the artillery tower.

When Shen Quan saw that there were only two people, he thought that this was a losing deal.

For the sake of supplies for a small Japanese stronghold, they lost ten elite veterans, and they suffered a loss no matter how you look at it.

He immediately asked with concern: "Where are the bodies of the other comrades who died? Why didn't I see any along the way?"

Kong Hao was also very surprised when he heard this, and could only say casually:

"Sacrifice, who sacrificed?"

"Xiao Kong, there are only two of you here, plus Liu Jinbao who reported the news, the others must be there."

Kong Hao suddenly realized that Shen Quan had misunderstood him. He quickly explained:

"Captain Shen, I think you misunderstood. I sent the others to plant mines on the road that the enemy must pass through. We didn't even have a single casualty."

After hearing this, Shen Quan immediately felt relieved. It was best that no one was injured. He was frightened just now and thought that everything was wrong.

At this time, there was an explosion on the road. Shen Quan immediately took out his pistol and shouted:

"Pass on my order. All members of the Second Battalion will head to the explosion site and quickly establish a blocking position."

"Captain Shen, wait a moment. Look at the ammunition on the ground that I brought out. There are bullets for Type 38 rifles, Mauser pistols, Czech light machine guns, and other miscellaneous rifle bullets."

"Oh, and there are a lot of Jin-made grenades and the Japanese melon grenades. I have separated them all."

"If you let the soldiers of the Second Battalion replenish their ammunition as needed, their combat effectiveness will be greatly improved."

After saying this, he winked at Shen Quan, and his purpose was self-evident.

In fact, Shen Quan was not a person who kept to himself. After hearing what Kong Hao said, he quickly changed the combat order.

"Everyone in the Second Battalion, replenish ammunition in company units, and once replenished, quickly head to the battlefield."

It was the first time for the soldiers of the Second Battalion to be able to replenish their ammunition on the battlefield, and judging from the ammunition boxes on the ground, there were almost tens of thousands of rounds.

So every rifleman in the Second Battalion replenished his bullets to 50 rounds and his grenades to five. The main shooter and deputy shooter of the Czech light machine gun each carried 200 rounds of bullets, and the same was true for the Type 99 light machine gun.

As for the platoon leader who had a Mauser pistol, he kept putting guns into his pocket until it was full.

Although the Second Battalion Commander Shen Quan had specifically instructed that the soldiers only take half of the current ammunition, the rest should be left for other units of the independent regiment.

However, some of the company and platoon leaders were cunning and asked their soldiers to put all the reloaded bullets into the ammunition boxes, and their bullet bags were all filled with Type 38 or other types of bullets.

In addition, the border areas that everyone disliked were all retained.

The main reason is that they had no choice before. The grenades and reloaded bullets made in the border area were also good things. Now they only want the original bullets and the Japanese's melon grenades.

Of course, Shen Quan also saw these little actions of his subordinates, but he did not give explicit orders to stop them, which was considered as tacit approval.

In this era when all Chinese troops are seriously short of guns and ammunition, people cannot be too honest. If everything is left to be allocated by superiors, the team's combat effectiveness will not develop at all.

As long as it does not violate discipline, things like this are basically tolerated. After all, their Second Battalion is the most powerful battalion in the independent regiment and should enjoy this treatment.

Next came the Third Battalion of the Independent Regiment. After replenishing enough ammunition, they went to the front to block the enemy and buy enough time for the transport team behind.

With so much ammunition, the battle became much easier to fight. After the small groups of Japanese troops coming out of other nearby artillery towers were ambushed, they no longer came out and could only call the county town.

But to be honest, even in the nearby county town there was only one squadron of Japanese soldiers and one regiment of puppet troops.

If it was the independent regiment before, it would definitely not be able to stop the attack due to the lack of guns and bullets.

But now the independent regiment has sufficient ammunition and high morale. Even if the enemy comes out in full force, the independent regiment can only give the Japanese devils two words: haha.

As expected, after receiving calls from other strongholds, Captain Kameda of Wuxian County judged that there were at least two regiments of the Eighth Route Army attacking the Xiaowangzhuang stronghold, and he quickly sent a telegram to his superiors for help.

Their troops were defending the county town to avoid being lured away by an enemy.

This was exactly what Kong Jie wanted, allowing him to organize people to evacuate all the supplies from this stronghold with peace of mind.

To be honest, it was not easy for the Eighth Route Army to capture a stronghold at that time. Without heavy weapons, it would be impossible to take down a stronghold.

No matter how small the Japanese stronghold was, if there were no more than ten people, they would be equipped with two light machine guns. As long as there were more than twenty people, there would definitely be a Type 92 heavy machine gun, and a lot of bullets, at least 5,000 rounds.

For a unit like the Independent Regiment that is not even equipped with rifles, any artillery tower is a huge headache.

The artillery towers built by the Japanese were the least afraid of being besieged, because each tower could store enough supplies for the defenders for a month, and there were an outrageous number of bullets.

In the past, the main force of the Eighth Route Army also wanted to besiege the stronghold for a long time. They besieged it for half a month, but finally they could not withstand the reinforcements of the Japanese devils and had to retreat.

The most disgusting thing about the Japanese artillery tower is that even if our troops successfully took it down in the end, all the ammunition inside would have been used up by them. This was simply the most unprofitable business.

As long as the ammunition captured is less than the ammunition fired, it would be fatal for a unit that relies on captured ammunition to survive.

When Kong Jie arrived with the transport team, Kong Hao was already sitting next to the artillery tower to rest.

Zhang Dabiao had sharp eyes. When he saw the many empty ammunition boxes on the open ground, he immediately guessed what had happened before.

It seems that all the fat has been eaten by the two battalions in front, and what is left for them is probably just a little soup. There is nothing they can do about it, because they have become a transport team.

When Kong Hao saw Kong Jie arrive, he quickly came up to him and said with a smile on his face:

"Captain Kong, there is still a lot of food and bacon in the base. Please quickly arrange for people to transport it back."

"By the way, the support wall of this turret has been destroyed. You will need to arrange a small number of people to go in later. Be careful."

Faced with so many supplies, Kong Jie's eyes were shining. This was the most their independent regiment had ever obtained in recent years, and it could be considered a huge fortune.

The most surprising thing is that this was taken down by the special forces unexpectedly. The Japanese soldiers in the stronghold didn’t even fire many shots, and the ammunition inside was still there.

Unlike other artillery towers, their troops paid a huge price but only captured an empty building.

"Xiao Kong, you've worked hard. You should take a rest first."

"When it comes to cleaning up the battlefield, our independent regiment is the most professional. We guarantee that not even a hair will be left behind for the Japanese."
