A magazine of 30,000 rounds, you call it Hanyang

In this battle of Liujiaping, Zheng Kaixuan fought cleanly and smoothly.

Of course, the main reason was that this group of devils were all defeated from the Xiyang battlefield. Not only were they few in number, but they also lacked guns and bullets and had almost no heavy equipment.

They only had a few grenade launchers, but because they were trapped in the yard with poor visibility, they fired a few random shots and did not cause any harm to Zheng Kaixuan and the soldiers.

The villagers of Liujiaping were also closely watching this battle.

The outcome of this battle is of great importance to the entire village and even the entire Changyu Valley.

If Zheng Kaixuan wins, it means everyone can continue to live a peaceful and stable life.

If the Japanese had won, they would have to live a miserable life worse than death with no end in sight.

"It's Captain Zheng! Captain Zheng wins!"

"The Eighth Route Army comrades have won the battle. That's great!"

"The devils have been wiped out!"

Although the villagers were not clear about the situation of the battle in the yard, when they saw Zheng Kaixuan and the soldiers walking out of the yard, all the mysteries were naturally revealed.

The outcome is obvious, the Japs have completely lost!

"Captain Zheng, thank you! Thank you all!"

Liu Shulin, the old patriarch of the Liu family, was shaking with excitement. He threw away the walking stick in his hand and knelt on the ground with a thud.

"I'm bringing all the young and old men from Liujiaping with me. Thank you, Sharp Knife Regiment."

"Plop! Plop! Plop..."

Behind Grandpa Liu, all the men and women, young and old, and the villagers of Liujiaping knelt on the ground.

"Get up, everyone, get up quickly, this is impossible."

Zheng Kaixuan quickly led the soldiers to support them.

"Uncle, uncle, I want to be a soldier in the Eighth Route Army too!"

"I want to fight the devils too!"

"We also want to fight the devils..."

……

A group of children, some with snot bubbles running down their noses, jumped and ran to Zheng Kaixuan with excitement on their faces.

Zheng Kaixuan actually didn’t know how domineering their figures looked as they walked out of the gate covered in smoke!

He also didn't know how great their heroic and fearless figures were in the hearts of these children as they bravely eliminated the invaders, and what an indelible impression they left.

From that day on, a seed of bravery and justice was deeply planted in the hearts of these children.

One day, these seeds will take root, sprout, and grow into majestic towering trees!

This torch of justice will be passed on from generation to generation.

"Okay! I promise you, when you grow up, your uncle will take you to fight the Japanese."

Immediately afterwards, with the help of the villagers, everyone cleaned up the battlefield inside Liu Baochang's compound.

There were more than a hundred bodies of Japanese soldiers and more than a hundred bodies of security guards. They were all thrown into a big pit, put firewood on it, and burned to ashes.

Zheng Kaixuan took out all the food, money and land from Liu Baochang's house and distributed them to the poor people in the village.

The villagers were naturally grateful and expressed their gratitude to Zheng Kaixuan and others.

Zheng Kaixuan felt a sense of accomplishment in his heart. He felt that his greatest gain this time in Liujiaping was not the Japanese lieutenant colonel's shoulder strap, but the trust of his fellow villagers!

The brigade commander had asked Zhang Dabiao to tell him that if he wanted to win the guerrilla war, he must gain the support of the people, mobilize the masses and win them over.

Today, he did it.

With the support of the people, we will not have to worry about winning this battle to defend our country.

Zheng Kaixuan also made proper arrangements regarding the people of Liujiaping's desire to join the army.

The same arrangement as in Niujiayu.

"Wang Fugui, leave a few soldiers behind to form a militia squad in Liujiaping, so that Changyugou can form its own armed force."

"Yes, Captain."

The security guards who had followed Chief Liu to arrest people in the village all fled and hid in the deep mountains and forests after seeing the Japanese being attacked by the Eighth Route Army.

The formation of the Liujiaping militia can, on the one hand, prevent the escaped ruffians and guards from retaliating against the villagers.

On the other hand, it was to guard against the Japanese.

The remnants of Okada Masahide's troops were wiped out in Liujiaping, and the Japanese 109th Division and the main force were bound to be furious.

Forming a militia here will help us prepare for any eventuality.

If the Japanese really attack, the presence of an armed force can at least give ordinary people the opportunity and time to escape into the mountains.

Zheng Kaixuan left the Type 38 rifle and bullets seized from the Japanese to the Liujiaping militia.

As for the old Type 38 rifles in the hands of the guards, Zheng Kaixuan packed them all up and prepared to take them back to Wei Zhuang.

The Type 38 rifle may seem useless to others, but every shot is a treasure to Zheng Kaixuan.

This time, Zheng Kaixuan gained a lot.

In addition to the Japanese epaulettes and the trust of the villagers, they also accumulated valuable combat experience in small-scale surprise attacks.

This laid a solid foundation for the independent regiment's subsequent special operations.

Another thing that surprised Zheng Kaixuan was that they also seized a radio from the Japanese!

Radios are a scarce commodity in the Eighth Route Army and are only available in the regimental-level units of the regular army.

In the entire 771th Brigade, apart from the brigade headquarters, only the 772st and nd Regiments had radio stations.

Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment and Kong Jie's Independent Regiment were still not there when Zhang Dabiao and Kong Jie left Heiyunkou.

If anyone, including the Sharp Knife Regiment, wants to be equipped with a radio station, they can only rely on seizing it themselves.

In addition to the antenna equipment and controller, the radio station also includes a transmitter and a receiver, in layman's terms, a transmitter and a receiver.

With a radio, you can use it to send telegrams and transmit information.

This radio had been repaired by the Japanese, and its functions were quite complete. Zheng Kaixuan led his men back to Wei Zhuang. As soon as they turned on the radio in the regiment headquarters, a beeping sound immediately came from the receiver.

"Is this, Morse code?"

Zheng Kaixuan had heard of the famous Morse code, but he didn't know how to use it or record it.

Without understanding Morse code, the radio would be useless. Zheng Kaixuan couldn't help but frown.

However, at this moment, Wang Xikui beside him suddenly made a gesture of silence, then picked up a pencil and started drawing on the straw paper.

What Wang Xikui wrote were the symbols representing Morse code.

Zheng Kaixuan was overjoyed.

He almost forgot that Wang Xikui was a veteran of the Long March and had been exposed to radio a long time ago. He was an all-round talent!

This is also the reason why Li Yunlong left Wang Xikui to assist Zheng Kaixuan.

Soon, the sound in the receiver disappeared, and Wang Xikui put down his pen and stopped writing.

"The Japs used Morse code in a scrambled format, so it was impossible to guess what the message was."

Zheng Kaixuan was slightly disappointed when he heard what Wang Xikui said.

If they could learn the contents of the Japanese intelligence, they would be able to take the initiative in the next battle and even lead the Japanese by the nose.

But then, Wang Xikui's words made Zheng Kaixuan happy again.

"Although we can't understand these codes, I know someone who can."
