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

Seeing that he had gained so many merits at once, Kong Hao was very happy. He planned to exchange them for some equipment suitable for the guerrillas to enhance the overall strength of the troops.

"Brother Tongzi, help me exchange one thousand Spanish side-loading Mauser pistols, two hundred thousand rounds of ammunition, and fifty Czech light machine guns, one hundred thousand rounds of ammunition."

"Commander, a total of 125 merit points will be consumed."

Although our arsenal can produce Mauser pistols by itself, this place is too far away from the arsenal, and the consumption during transportation is too great. The weapons and ammunition transported here are just a drop in the bucket and are better than nothing.

Exchanging these weapons and ammunition can effectively enhance the strength of the local guerrillas, which is also a very meaningful thing.

"Brother Tongzi, please help me exchange 50,000 sulfa tablets and 500 kilograms of sulfa powder."

"Commander, 1200 merit points are required."

Medicines are something that will never be enough for the troops no matter how many you have. The ones that were exchanged before have probably been almost used up by the Eighth Route Army, so now is a good time to exchange some more.

Generally, these important medical supplies captured by the guerrillas are basically handed over to the main force, which is just right for them to use as a gift.

As for why there are so many on one train, no one would care about it. After all, it is a military train carrying the Kwantung Army, so it must be different.

"By the way, exchange two tons of sugar for me. Put them in the same carriage as the medicines and pack them in special containers."

"Yes, Commander. I need 20 merit points. Currently I have points left."

Looking at his remaining merit points, there are still more than 60,000. If he uses them to exchange for sugar, he can only exchange for 6,000 tons, which actually doesn't solve much of a problem.

Even if we exchange them for rifles, there would only be 120,000 of them. Although it could improve the Eighth Route Army's strength to some extent, that's all. It might improve its strength in a short period of time, but it would be easily consumed.

Only by carrying out industrialization and purchasing more machines and production lines can we ultimately improve the overall strength of our troops and drive the Japanese devils back to their homeland.

Next, he asked the system to move all the worthless things on the train into the space, and then put the weapons and equipment in the space into the carriages, and also made some modifications to make everything conform to the actual situation on the scene.

After doing all this, he first sent the special forces in batches to guard both sides of the railway. Once they encountered the Japanese troops, they would find a way to block them for a while. He also brought several explosive packs to deal with the Japanese patrol armored vehicles.

Seeing that Kong Hao had succeeded, Li Xiangyang quickly sent someone to notify Secretary Duan behind him, asking him to lead the special forces to catch up.

"Captain Kong, how many big fish did we catch in this net?"

"Why are these little devils dressed differently from the little devils here?"

At this time, Kong Hao was checking the identities of the Japanese soldiers in the carriage. Looking at the attire of the corpses on the ground and the information found in a briefcase next to a squadron leader, he immediately understood the whole story.

He said with a big smile on his face: "From the documents, these should be the Kwantung Army, the elite force of the Japanese. There are about two squadrons. They were ordered to be transferred to North China to cooperate in the battle. Unexpectedly, we hit them by accident and wiped them all out in one go."

When Li Xiangyang heard that it was the Kwantung Army, his mouth opened wide. He asked in shock:

"Isn't it said that the Kwantung Army is the most elite force of the Japanese, and every soldier is a great shooter? There are almost 300 people in the two squadrons, and they were wiped out in less than half an hour. I feel like I'm dreaming."

Kong Hao rolled his eyes and said proudly: "No matter how well-trained the Kwantung Army is, they are still human beings, not gods. Facing a large number of submachine guns and dense fire at such a close distance, and we also threw a large number of high-explosive grenades, no matter who comes, they will only become corpses on the ground."

"Okay, let's have some of the team members clean up the battlefield quickly. After all, these are two squadrons of Japs. This is a big gain."

"By the way, according to the Japanese' usual operations, the heavy weapons of these two squadrons should be in the next car, as well as various ammunition."

After hearing this, Li Xiangyang was so surprised that he turned around several times on the spot. He didn't expect that they just wanted to get some supplies from the train, but there was such a big surprise.

Previously, they had seized the weapons and equipment of a Japanese garrison squadron, which had made everyone so happy that they couldn't sleep all night. Now they obtained the equipment of two squadrons, which was equivalent to a double surprise, that is, ecstasy.

Sure enough, when the adjacent train carriage was opened, it was found to contain the heavy weapons of two squadrons of the Japanese devils, as well as ammunition and various supplies to sustain their combat efforts for a month. Four mortars were even found among the supplies.

At this time, Secretary Duan also arrived with the transport team. When he saw this scene, he also gasped.

Upon seeing this, Li Xiangyang quickly explained the situation in general, and also emphasized that it was just bad luck for these Japanese devils to have run into our guns.

After the shock, everyone started to get down to business. They first moved all the weapons and ammunition in the carriages off the train. The comrades in the transport team used a relay method to continuously transport things to the back, where there were a large number of wheelbarrows. Once they were full, an adult man would push them and they would disappear into the night.

Of course, there were also a lot of horse-drawn carriages parked nearby, which were used to load large items. The organizational ability of our troops was fully demonstrated at this moment.

The transport teams convened by each village are led by the village chief or militia captain. Each transport team has its own tasks, and there will be no confusion or waste of manpower during the transportation process.

A wheelbarrow can transport 200 kilograms of things and can be moved as long as there is a little road. It is the most suitable tool for long-distance transportation on mountain roads.

Originally, Secretary Duan had only assembled about a thousand vehicles, but seeing the situation on the scene, this was far from enough. He has sent people to notify his superiors, hoping to mobilize more transport teams to rush to transport the supplies.

It is now around seven o'clock in the evening. We only have one night to transport the supplies. Once it gets light tomorrow morning, the transport team must retreat and hide.

In addition, all the troops of the county brigade have been dispatched to monitor the Japanese troops stationed nearby. Once the enemy moves out, they must resolutely block the enemy and buy time for the transport team to transport supplies.

At the same time, we dispatched more than a dozen small units to attack at night, harassing the enemy everywhere and using the sparrow tactics to prevent the Japanese from finding the direction of our attack.

When Secretary Duan saw the mountains of weapons and equipment, he immediately ordered that rifles and bullets be transported first and all these things be sent to the county brigade.

The guerrillas are currently short of guns and ammunition. Once these weapons arrive, they can be immediately equipped to the troops and improve the guerrillas' combat effectiveness.

With sufficient bullets, we can have a good fight with the Japanese support forces.

Next, Kong Hao led everyone to open the overturned train carriage door, wanting to see what was inside.

At this time, some of the weapon boxes in the carriage had cracked, and the weapons inside fell to the ground. Liu Jindou, who was responsible for opening the door, saw the weapons on the ground and said disdainfully:

"It turned out to be a Japanese turtle box, a piece of rubbish."
