Bright Sword: Follow Kong's fun and build the strongest military industry
Chapter 20 Eat carrots and worry less
However, Li Yunlong turned around and asked again:
"Did you find anything unusual?"
Kong Jie pondered for a moment before whispering:
"This time we dispatched a special forces team of thirteen people. Logically speaking, it is impossible to take down such a large artillery tower."
"I just had someone count the enemy's bodies. The Japanese army was a combat unit with a total of 14 people, and the puppet army was a platoon. All the enemies together had a total of 63 people."
"Logically speaking, with so many people defending, the turret in Xiaowangzhuang would not be easily conquered, but it was easily taken down. This is what puzzles me."
"And I found that the two bunkers in the artillery tower seemed to have been hit by heavy artillery, and a big hole was broken. This is why the special forces team easily broke through it."
"But when I arrived, I didn't find any heavy artillery at all. There was only a big box in Xiao Kong's hand."
Li Yunlong specifically asked at this time: "Where is Kong Hao? Why can't I see him?"
"He has gone to the front. There is no need for him to intervene in such a small matter as transporting supplies."
"Old Kong, since we have won the battle, let's not pursue it too much."
There was another doubt that Kong Jie didn't want to talk about, but he felt uncomfortable holding it in his heart, so he decided to speak out:
"Old Li, we seized quite a lot of ammunition this time, several times more than before."
"The exact number has not yet been released, but look at the ammunition boxes on the open ground. They are all used to replenish the ammunition for the Second and Third Battalions."
Li Yunlong carefully counted the number of ammunition boxes and looked at the weapons and ammunition moved out of the artillery tower.
He said with a smile on his face: "This is a good thing. I hope to capture as much as possible. As long as there is enough ammunition, I dare to fight the Japanese field troops head-on."
"And the situation with the turrets we captured before was that we had to besiege them for a long time, and only managed to capture them after the enemy's ammunition was almost exhausted."
"It is estimated that the Japanese were captured before they fired a few shots, so they must have too much ammunition."
Kong Jie thought about it and agreed, and at the same time he despised himself in his heart: He is really meddling in other people's business. This is a great thing, and he is still worrying about nothing.
After most of the day's transportation, all the supplies were finally delivered to the Independent Regiment in the evening, and the Japanese left nothing at the Xiaowangzhuang artillery tower.
If it weren't for the fact that there was not enough time, even the corners of the turret would have been pried away by the common people.
When the Japanese reinforcements arrived, they saw an empty space next to Xiaowangzhuang and were completely at a loss as to what to do.
If their intelligence was correct, this place should have two large bunkers and some barracks, but now it has become an empty space.
Where did the buildings that were originally built on the ground go? Could it be that they grew wings and flew away?
After such a great victory, everyone in the independent regiment had a dinner together.
This time, Li Yunlong took out dozens of kilograms of bacon and more than two hundred kilograms of flour for the first time, and made a bowl of oily noodles for everyone.
The soldiers, who had been eating sweet potatoes for several months, felt really satisfied with the food, and it was also a reward for everyone's hard work for a day.
After dinner, Li Yunlong and Kong Jie sat in the regiment headquarters waiting anxiously.
At this time, Lao Liao, the head of the independent regiment's logistics department, came in and said loudly with excitement:
"Captain Li, Captain Kong, the statistics of the spoils of the battle at Xiaowangzhuang have come out."
"Mainly there are 2 Type 9260 heavy machine guns, 2 rounds of heavy machine gun bullets, 2 Maxim heavy machine guns, 5400 rounds of bullets; 6 Type light machine guns, rounds of bullets, and Czech light machine guns, rounds of bullets."
"There are also three Type 3 rifles and 12 other miscellaneous brand rifles. The total number of rifle bullets is 5, but 2 rounds have been received by the Second and Third Battalions, leaving 3 rounds in the warehouse."
"In addition, there are more than 700 kilograms of various cured meats, about 5 kilograms of grain, and a large number of various daily necessities, including various seasonings, bedding, pots and pans, etc."
"Oh, and we also seized 822 silver dollars, and about taels of gold."
Li Yunlong and Kong Jie were very excited to hear that they had obtained so many weapons, ammunition and supplies at once. Their independent regiment could be considered rich now.
However, Kong Jie thought more deeply and said seriously:
"Old Li, we have mobilized a regiment of troops without authorization. I estimate that the brigade commander will get the news tomorrow morning."
"Besides, our independent regiment cannot consume all the supplies at once. I think we should hand over some of them to the brigade headquarters. This will also improve the combat effectiveness of other troops."
"It's impossible that our independent regiment has an average of 100 bullets per soldier, while other brother units only have 3-5 bullets to fight against the well-equipped Japanese."
"We drink and eat meat every day, while our brothers can only eat bran and vegetables. I can't do such a thing."
Li Yunlong is not a stingy person. The reason why he was stingy before was because everyone was poor and he could only take care of his own troops.
Otherwise, he would not have been transferred from the powerful New 1st Regiment to the position of director of the clothing factory just because of an order from his superiors. Apart from making a few complaints, he did not show any resistance.
If this happened to the troops of other warlords, it would be completely unimaginable.
In addition, the harvest this time is so huge that it cannot be digested in a short period of time, so it is better to hand over part of it.
Of course, the reason for doing this is mainly to shut up certain people. As long as Kong Hao's special forces are in their independent regiment, they will obtain a steady supply of weapons and equipment.
After thinking this through, Li Yunlong smiled and said:
"Old Kong, let's put it this way. Our independent regiment will allocate ammunition according to an average of 50 rounds of bullets per rifle, 200 rounds of bullets per pistol, 1000 rounds of bullets per light machine gun, and 2000 rounds of bullets per heavy machine gun. All the excess ammunition will be handed in."
"I went to the brigade headquarters for a meeting today. The current situation is very serious, especially for our 386th Brigade. Many troops are short of food and ammunition."
"The brigade is also in a difficult situation at the moment. At noon, several of us old comrades also eat sweet potatoes and half a bowl of porridge each. This is already an exceptional treatment."
"During the meeting, Cheng Xiazi from the 772nd Regiment was crying poor and wanted the brigade to give him more aid, but he was severely reprimanded by the brigade commander."
"Political Commissar Wang also asked us to take the initiative to attack and ask the Japanese and puppet troops for food and water, and of course the most important thing is weapons and ammunition."
"After all, we can still provide some support to the people in the food base, and we can also think of other ways, but we can only steal weapons and ammunition from the Japanese."
"Only troops above the battalion level need to be reported to the brigade for mobilization. Company-level mobilization is completely free, with only one requirement: you can't do business at a loss. As soon as the gun goes off, you have to bring something back home."
"Because the 771st and 772nd Regiments have important defense tasks, our independent regiment and Lao Ding's new regiment can send troops to guard the Japanese highway and ambush them."
"But depending on the situation, we have to hand over a portion of the spoils. This is up to each regiment to decide. It is not a mandatory requirement."
Kong Jie was very happy to hear the brigade's arrangement, as it would give them more freedom in the future.
At the same time, because the independent regiment has sufficient weapons and ammunition, it will be easy to launch an ambush, seize more supplies, and recruit more new soldiers. This is a healthy development.
At this time, Kong Hao walked in carrying a big box.
"Captain Li, Captain Kong, I'm here."
