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

After introducing the identities of both parties, Chen Feng recounted in detail what he had learned in Hengshui and expressed his hope to get help from the Eighth Route Army.

Kong Hao thought about it for a while, then made up his mind and said:

"The goal of our special operations team is to open up a transportation line from the base to Tianjin. Hengshui is one of the stops, so we can stop by when the time comes."

"The most important thing now is to improve the strength of the Fifth Military Division. Captain Li, you are not familiar with the terrain here. Do you want to tell us about the basic situation of Wuyi County and its surrounding areas?"

No one knew this better than Li Dabenshi, and he explained it in detail based on a simple map.

Including the distance from the county brigade’s base to the Wuyi County seat, all the checkpoints, artillery towers and strongholds set up by the Japanese, everyone present nodded continuously when they heard it.

Especially for Sun Chenghai, it was the first time for him to come into contact with such detailed military intelligence. Thinking about it now, his previous actions were extremely ridiculous.

Fighting the Japanese is not a game of house. We cannot just rush in and attack without caring about anything. The Japanese are still very strong at the moment. If we act recklessly, we will only suffer heavy losses.

At this time, he had already thought about joining Li Dabenshi. The reason was very simple. He was just a powerful general and did not have the ability to command the overall situation. He even lacked the ability to feed his subordinates.

If this continues, it won't be long before his Ninth Route Army disbands and everyone goes back to their own homes.

War is no joke. If you act recklessly according to your own will and are not careful, many people will die. This is what Sun Chenghai least wants to see. He is just reckless, not stupid.

Kong Hao was also very satisfied after listening to it. His special forces team had just arrived, and it would be much easier to move around with these people who were familiar with the local conditions to guide them.

"Captain Li has already explained it in detail. We need to open up the road to the county this time, and the enemy's Xiaobaozhuang stronghold is a roadblock, so we must clear it first."

"Next, there will be a series of battles in Wuyi County. Only after the battles are over can we go to Hengshui and destroy the enemy's secret weapons base."

After hearing this, Chen Feng didn't say much and could only nod and agree to Kong Hao's proposal.

Under the current circumstances, only this small team with terrifying combat power can turn the originally dangerous mission with a life-or-death chance into a 60-40 chance. And if Captain Kong has other hidden means, even a 50-50 chance is very likely.

After thinking this through, his previous anxiety was greatly alleviated. To be honest, when he learned that the Japanese were preparing to deploy new weapons on the battlefield, he was extremely anxious. He even held the belief that he would die and was ready to fulfill his duty as a Chinese soldier.

These days, there are wars every day, and a large number of soldiers are sacrificed every day. If sacrificing a few of them can exchange for the lives of thousands of Chinese soldiers, it is an extremely cost-effective deal no matter how you look at it.

Although doing so is a bit unfair to people like Li Dabenshi, this is the reality. Now it is a national war, and every soldier cannot just think about himself, otherwise everyone will eventually become slaves of a conquered country.

It couldn't be better now that someone more capable has taken over this difficult task. From now on, he only needs to cooperate with the action, instead of leading a group of unreliable people to complete a fatal battle as before.

Sometimes, only by staying alive can one fight the Japanese better. He also wants to see the day when the invading enemy is driven out of the country.

If that day really comes, he might return to campus and continue his studies.

In fact, he was not a good student. Of course, he did not do well in the army, and now he has become a lone commander, but he does not regret it at all.

"Throwing down the pen and joining the army" is a romantic idiom. It has been featured in history books of all dynasties, praising this great feat. But who can understand the bitterness behind it?

The army has always respected the strong, let alone how difficult it would be for a scholar who is weak and powerless to gain a foothold in it.

If it weren't for the righteousness of his country and family, Chen Feng would have wanted to give up many times, hide in a remote mountain village, and ignore the world.

Others had no objection, but Li Dabenshi was extremely anxious and quickly spoke up to dissuade them:

"Captain Kong, this Xiaobao Village is not easy to attack. There is a company of puppet troops inside, and there are more than a dozen Japanese soldiers inside to supervise the battle."

"There are four bunkers in the stronghold, one large and three small. The enemy's main bunker has five floors and several material warehouses. It is the logistics support base for the puppet troops in more than a dozen surrounding strongholds. It is also the largest stronghold of the Japanese except for the county town."

"If we don't have heavy artillery, we can't take it down at all. During the Chinese New Year last year, the Third Regiment of the Ninth Column of our base sent out a main force battalion just to take it down and seize the supplies inside so that we can have a good year."

"After fighting for a whole day and a whole night, with hundreds of casualties, we only managed to destroy two small bunkers of the Japanese. Finally, the Japanese reinforcements arrived, and we had no choice but to retreat."

"Since then, few people dared to attack the enemy's Xiaobaozhuang stronghold. The most infuriating thing is that the two small strongholds destroyed by our troops were repaired by the Japanese with just some strong laborers in five or six days. Our troops suffered a huge loss."

After he finished speaking, others nodded in agreement. The terrain of Xiaobao Village was dangerous and easy to defend but difficult to attack. There were also a large number of light and heavy machine guns, so it was really difficult to take.

Unless regular troops equipped with barreled artillery are dispatched, the enemy's artillery tower can be destroyed by the power of artillery.

However, Kong Hao and his special forces team are professionals when it comes to attacking artillery towers. They are just a few small bunkers, no big deal.

In addition, there are a large number of the Japanese weapons, equipment, clothing and supplies in the space he carries with him. After taking Wuyi County, he can put all the things into the warehouse to enhance the strength of the Eighth Route Army units here.

To be honest, this place is far away from the headquarters arsenal, and the usual ammunition supply is relatively small. In addition, the transportation cost is also very high, and there are often various dangers on the road. Now it can only be done once a month, and there are only a few hundred guns and tens of thousands of bullets, which is not enough to share. It cannot be said to be better than nothing, but it can only be a drop in the bucket.

Especially the Type 92 infantry gun, which is a heavy weapon for siege, is extremely scarce. Even the three regiments of the 9th Column only have one gun to show off, and there are only three shells for it. It is basically just a decoration.
