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

The next day, the independent regiment only took out five artillery towers, but could not find any suitable ones nearby. The Japanese basically left the three-story artillery towers and retreated to nearby large strongholds or county towns.

This type of stronghold consists of seven or eight artillery towers and special trenches outside. Usually a squadron of Japanese soldiers are stationed there, equipped with mortars and Type 92 infantry guns. Our recoilless guns cannot get close at all.

What's more, the Japanese were quite wicked. Because the order they received was to retreat urgently, many things that could not be taken away were directly burned. Even if the Japanese didn't want them themselves, they would not let us take advantage of them.

However, we did not suffer much loss here. After all, we did not consume any weapons and ammunition. With the support of a large number of civilians, we dismantled all the artillery towers that were abandoned when the Japanese retreated and transported them back home.

At any time, destruction is much easier than construction. The local people have plenty of strength, and the Japanese will leave nothing on the original stronghold except a big pit.

Even if the Japanese come back in the future and want to build a gun tower, we will first have to spend a lot of energy to fill this hole. Moreover, after this battle, it is not certain whether the enemy dares to build a gun tower. After all, the enemy dare not gamble how many recoilless gun shells we have. One shell for a gun tower, the Japanese will suffer a loss and we will gain an advantage.

Of course, in the burned-down strongholds of the Japanese, the common people could occasionally find a few bags of food, some pots and pans, and even a lot of military supplies.

Apart from the military supplies handed over, the rest were remuneration for the work of the common people. After all, you can't let others help you for free.

Since the Japanese have changed their tactics, we must also change accordingly. Li Yunlong led the main force of the independent regiment to build a blocking position on the route that the enemy reinforcements must take.

Ding Wei and Kong Jie led the New 1st and 2nd Regiments to cover the local militia forces in tearing up the railway. After all, their own arsenal was still waiting for the rail production equipment.

The Arsenal is now the darling of the group. Even if one wants the moon in the sky, the leaders of the headquarters have to discuss how to set up the ladder.

Moreover, Kong Hao also specifically released the news that the railroad tracks could be exchanged for weapons. In addition to a large number of reward rifles, Mauser pistols and bullets, there were even a lot of defensive grenades, which were urgently needed by various combat troops.

In addition, the military region that surrenders the most can receive an additional 20 mortars and 100 grenade launchers, as well as the corresponding ammunition.

In short, "If you have the ability, drink and eat meat. If you don't have the ability, just watch from the sidelines and don't be jealous."

This is also the reason why the brigade commander sent out his ace troops to take the initiative to attack. Twenty mortars and one hundred grenade launchers cannot be underestimated no matter where they are placed.

According to the usual distribution pattern, this is the quota for the entire Taiyue Military Region for two months. Faced with such a sky-high reward, all the troops are working hard to take away all the railway tracks from the surrounding Japanese.

This is the pride that only comes from having our own arsenal. Now we can produce more than one hundred mortars every month, and the corresponding production line has been basically figured out.

Next, the arsenal can fully utilize industrial mother machines to imitate some key equipment of the mortar production line, such as barrel processing machines and rifling stretching machines. As long as these two key technologies are broken through, some of the subsequent common parts will be simple. By that time, we will be able to imitate our own weapons production line.

Moreover, Kong Hao's brain contains a large number of advanced weapons for future generations, and he can also exchange blueprints of various weapons and equipment through the system. China's future technological strength is limitless.

On the second night, Kong Jie brought the troops of the New Second Regiment and the gathered civilians and quietly came to the Japanese railway line. Their mission was to find a way to get back all the five kilometers of rails in front of them, and at the same time cut off the Japanese railway transportation line.

Kong Hao had anticipated today's situation a long time ago, and had already used the machinery and equipment in the arsenal to produce a number of tools that could quickly dismantle the rails.

Especially the machines that can cut rails directly, he exchanged hundreds of sets from the system, just waiting for this day to come.

On Kong Jie's side, he first sent out troops from the New Second Regiment to spread out along the railway for guarding, and then he brought a large number of professional personnel to the side of the railway to carry out dismantling.

I saw technicians and soldiers working together in a division of labor. Generally, a technician led an infantry squad of soldiers to carry out the preliminary dismantling work, followed by a large group of civilians.

In order to complete the task in the shortest time, many points need to act simultaneously. One team is responsible for a small area, which is the distance between three rails. As long as the task is completed, they can move on to the next target.

Everyone held various tools in their hands, their eyes determined and focused. Following Kong Jie's command, all the staff started working, creating a bustling scene.

Under the guidance of technicians, some soldiers used crowbars to pry the rails, some soldiers used wrenches to loosen the screws, and some soldiers used hammers to hit the spikes that fixed the rails.

In fact, before the operation, everyone received professional training and the operation was demonstrated several times. Now they must be familiar with it and operate it in an orderly manner.

After a section of rail is unloaded, the person operating the cutting machine will immediately come forward and cut the rail into small sections of about four meters. Such a section of rail weighs about four hundred kilograms.

After the cutting was completed, the people at the back formed groups of six, tied the rails with hemp ropes, used three pieces of wood as levers, lifted the rails and carried them to the cart at the back.

Those who followed the main force this time were all young and strong men between the ages of 20 and 40. Some of them were very strong, and they were secretly gathered together and trained in a secret place three days before the operation.

In addition to training on how to move the rails quickly, everyone was also given a few full meals so that they would have the strength to work later.

For those who work tonight, these three days are like Chinese New Year every day, and they even eat better than most ordinary people do during the Chinese New Year.

You can eat as much multi-grain steamed buns as you want, and there is meat in every three meals a day. In addition, each person can get two eggs every day, so you have to eat them.

My God, in these turbulent times, is there anything more beautiful than this?

As the saying goes, "Sharpening the knife does not delay the chopping of wood." Only when the porters are well fed can they have the strength to quickly transport the unloaded rails back to the base.

You know, if one more 400-jin rail is used to produce machine parts, how much is that worth? Our troops have calculated this account quite clearly.

Besides, since the people have benefited from it, if there are such actions in the future, everyone will be more motivated and work more efficiently.

At present, the conditions of our troops have improved a lot, and we can compensate the people in the base area and achieve a win-win result.

The people have suffered a lot in recent years. In order to fight the Japanese, not only did they send all their good sons to the army to join the fight, but the remaining elderly people and women also worked in the fields, and the produced food supported the troops, just to drive away the invaders and let everyone live a stable life.

The common people’s thoughts are very simple. They believe that they have a home only if they have a country. If the country is gone, no matter how big the property is, they will not be able to keep it.
