Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Soon, Xie the translator got the answer and found Zhang Dabiao: "The Imperial Army said you can leave!"

"Thank you for translating. What about what we agreed on?"

Zhang Dabiao immediately asked for his reward, but was greeted by a kick from Xie the Translator: "You haven't found a single Eighth Route Army soldier, and you still want a reward from the Imperial Army. Get out of here! You're lucky the Imperial Army didn't kill you! Get out of here!"

As soon as these words came out, Zhang Dabiao immediately said with some panic: "Yes, yes, yes!"

As he spoke, he pulled two soldiers and left the Japanese army with an unwilling look on his face.

"Let's go back and tell the political commissar that the commander succeeded!"

After leaving the Japanese army, Zhang Dabiao's face was full of excitement. The Japanese retreated, which meant that the commander's plan was successful. However, what Zhang Dabiao was more worried about now was the safety of the commander and other personnel.

"I don't know what happened to the captain and the others!"

Zhang Dabiao couldn't help but glance in the direction of Taiyuan and said with some concern.

At this time, two trucks were parked on the side of a road forty kilometers north of Taiyuan City.

Xiao Wang and Xiao Liu jumped out of the car directly from the cab.

"Wait, let's leave a gift for the devils!"

As Xiao Wang spoke, he took out a grenade and carefully wrapped it around the fuel tank.

"The devils are coming!"

"Don't worry, it would be a waste to leave two cars to the Japanese. There are mountains next to us. If we go in, it will be like going home. The Japanese can still catch us!"

"makes sense!"

Xiao Liu also immediately took out a grenade and started setting up booby traps. After the two of them had set up the booby traps, they looked at the mountains beside them and ran into the mountains without hesitation.

About two kilometers behind them, the Japanese pursuers were chasing them.

"I saw the vehicle!"

The driver of the car running in front of the pursuers immediately shouted excitedly when he saw the two trucks.

However, he did not dare to get too close to the car, but stopped not far away.

Immediately afterwards, a group of Japanese cavalry jumped out of the car with guns in hand and dispersed towards the two cars in front.

"go ahead!"

"Don't shoot easily!"

"Surround the car!"

The Japanese officers were also commanding the Japanese troops, slowly approaching the two cars and carefully surrounding them, fearing that the two cars would run away.

"There's no one in the cab!"

After a Japanese soldier didn't see anyone through the glass, he immediately shouted a warning.

“There’s no one in the car!”

"..."

Chapter 94: An unexpected discovery of sugar, the Jinsui Army is in chaos

"No one? How is that possible?"

A Japanese lieutenant colonel rushed to the side of the vehicle excitedly, lifted the windproof cloth on the carriage, and found that the carriage was empty.

"impossible!"

"impossible!"

"Absolutely impossible!"

The lieutenant colonel frantically checked the vehicle, trying to find any trace of people, but the cab and the carriage were empty.

"idiot!"

The Japanese lieutenant colonel immediately realized that they might have been deceived, and kicked the car after saying that.

"Your Excellency, Lieutenant Colonel, we..."

"Search, search for me, they must be nearby, we can't let them get away!"

"Hayi!"

"These two cars?"

"Drive away!"

The lieutenant colonel looked around in confusion. He had finally caught up with the vehicle after chasing it all the way, but why was there no one in the car?

The two Japanese car drivers got into the driving seats of two cars. The two cars were parked in a position that blocked the road. If they wanted to continue chasing and searching, they had to move the two cars away.

Ignition and shifting gears are done in one go.

Then the vehicle began to move forward.

"boom!"

"boom!"

Two explosions were heard, and two booby traps left in the fuel tank positions of the two vehicles were detonated.

The grenade directly detonated the fuel tanks of the two cars, and the huge explosion instantly killed and injured the Japanese soldiers next to the vehicles.

The Japanese lieutenant colonel stood up from among the wounded in a daze.

I felt blood flowing from my head, so I reached out to touch it, and then I felt dizzy and fell to the ground.

"Your Majesty Lieutenant Colonel!"

"..."

Xiao Liu and Xiao Wang had already run into the mountains at this time. After hearing the explosion in the distance, they looked back and then continued to go into the deep mountains and forests without looking back.

"Remember to clean up your tracks, don't let the devil catch you!"

"Okay, do you think our leader should be out of danger now?"

"Don't worry, our leader is a real man! Let's go. When it's safe for a while, we'll go back!"

"it is good!"

At the same time, Li Yunlong led his troops onto a train heading south along the Tongpu Railway.

"Captain, are we just going to sit on the train so brazenly?"

Wei Heshang, Yu Zhigan and others looked at Li Yunlong with some concern. They had hopped on trains at night, but this was the first time they had ridden a train in broad daylight.

"What are you afraid of? Don't we still have him?"

Li Yunlong patted Shinozuka Kazuo's body, then laid his head on it and said, "Okay, don't worry. The Japs have no time to bother with us right now. Let's see what's in the carriage and see if there's anything we want!"

"Yes!"

This train is a freight train, but it is not a train that transports coal, but a train that transports supplies.

"Captain, we have no weapons, ammunition, or food. We only found some sugar."

This train was relatively empty, unlike the train that Wei Heshang and his companions had taken before, which was filled with coal. In the corner of this carriage were bags of sugar, not many in number.

"sugar?"

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up when he heard this.

"how many?"

“That’s all there is in the carriage!”

After Monk Wei finished speaking, he pointed to about thirty bags of sugar piled up in the corner.

"Monk, go to the next car and see how many there are!"

After saying that, Li Yunlong came to the pile of sugar, picked up some sugar from the small hole cut by the dagger, and put it into his mouth.

"Good stuff!"

Li Yunlong smiled after just one bite.

Sugar is a strategic material both now and in the future. Many people don’t even know that white sugar will be a strategic material in 2024.

Many people think that white sugar has no use other than being eaten. In fact, in addition to being edible and providing a lot of calories, white sugar can also be used as a disinfectant and sterilizer.

In addition, sugar has military uses, such as as a fuel additive and in the manufacture of explosives.

Why did Li Yunlong only acquire some machine tools and submachine guns when he traveled to this world? It wasn't because Li Yunlong didn't want to acquire other things, but because the Eighth Route Army was so poor that they simply didn't have the right raw materials to manufacture anything else.

For example, the rocket launcher that Li Yunlong has always wanted to develop has low technical difficulty but great power. It can easily destroy the Japanese bunkers, machine gun positions and small tanks.

Li Yunlong was able to make the steel, but it might not be heat-resistant and pressure-resistant enough, and the rocket launcher would be scrapped after a few shots. However, Li Yunlong never thought of designing a rocket launcher that could be used for a long time, but rather a temporary firepower equipment that could be used as long as it could fire one or two rockets.

However, Li Yunlong has always been lacking a key item for making rockets, which is sugar.

Li Yunlong had enough gunpowder for the rocket's warhead, but he couldn't find a suitable combustion aid for the rocket's engine, and this combustion aid was sugar.

In addition, there are Katyusha rockets. If Li Yunlong is given enough sugar, he can also make Katyusha rockets, but the range and accuracy will be compromised. However, facing the dense charge of the Japanese, as long as it is not too crooked, it is enough.

"Captain, that's all!"

Monk Wei searched two carriages, but both were empty. Only this carriage contained twenty-seven bags of sugar, each bag weighing about thirty pounds.

"That's enough! Don't forget to take the sugar with you when you leave!"

Li Yunlong was not greedy. With these hundreds of kilograms of sugar, he could make hundreds of rockets and save them for the Japanese to surprise them at the critical moment.

"Monk, you and Yu Zhigan keep an eye on where the train is. I'm going to take a nap!"

"It's the leader!"

After rearranging Kazuo Shinozuka's body, Li Yunlong leaned against it and began to take a nap.

The rest of the special forces soldiers also leaned on each other and began to rest. After the battle all night last night, everyone was very tired. Soon many of them fell asleep. The sound of the train wheels rolling over the rails drowned out everyone's voices.

The train quickly headed south along the Tongpu Railway, getting farther and farther away from Taiyuan.

At this time, Yan Laoxi's command center was in chaos.

"What? The Japanese 14th Division has entered your defense zone? Do you want to fight? Fight if you want to, don't move, wait for orders!"
