Chapter 552: Real and fake heavy artillery regiment!

In Mount Heng, in a dense forest.

More than 4,000 people from the two battalions of the New Regiment were sitting on the ground. The soldiers were all making dinner. Some soldiers were eating canned food, and some soldiers were reluctant to part with the canned food and ate pancakes.

Wang Fafa, commander of the sixth battalion of the New Regiment Division, and Zhao Youliang, commander of the seventh battalion, were gathering together to cook canned meat.

Both of them came out of the officer training class of the Anti-Japanese War. They were once at the battalion deputy level. They have excellent tactical command skills and good cultural standards.

"There are more than 000 people in one battalion..."

"There are more than 4,000 people in two battalions..."

"Is this a fucking brigade of troops?"

Even though he had been with the New Regiment for several months and participated in the big battle that severely damaged the 36th Division, Wang Fafa, commander of the 6th Battalion, still felt a bit unreal.

A battalion has 10 companies, including 1 artillery company, and the other 9 companies have 36 platoons, including 9 fire platoons.

There are more than 100 light and heavy machine guns, bazookas and light machine guns are equipped to the squad, flamethrowers are equipped to the platoon, and the fire platoon is equipped with 60mm mortars, M large-caliber heavy machine guns, and 0mm machine guns.

Each soldier is equipped with a steel helmet and gas mask, with sufficient ammunition, all semi-automatic rifles, and special military horses and mules to transport ammunition...

This firepower configuration and logistics are more powerful and comfortable than the Japanese Army's Type A Division.

This made Wang Fafa feel very outrageous. He used to be a battalion deputy in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. The battalion he was in had less than 400 people. There were only a few machine guns. The rifles were only equipped with some soldiers with good marksmanship, and the bullets were even more.

Very few.

In addition, they carry radios. If they run out of ammunition and food, they can send a telegram to the regiment headquarters at any time, and Advisor Chen will arrange for them to airdrop supplies.

It was a comfortable fight!

"Our new group is really strong!"

Battalion Commander Wang Fangfa saw Battalion Commander Zhao Youliang heating the canned meat, saying something and spitting out the dogtail grass in his mouth.

"What are you doing, brother?"

Battalion Commander Zhao complained: "Why don't you hurry up and eat meat? If you don't eat meat enthusiastically, there is something wrong with your brain."

The two of them picked up the meat with kuai and ate it happily. Although the canned meat provided by Boss Chen could be eaten cold, it tasted good if it was not hot.

"Brother, when do you think we can eat the flesh of the Japanese?"

Battalion Commander Wang found that he suddenly asked.

"Why are you so anxious, kid?"

Battalion Commander Zhao Youliang said: "Just wait, the Japs must have brought enough food and ammunition for the first wave of attacks. In five days at most, there will be Japs' heavy troops from the directions of Datong and Taiyuan transporting food and ammunition to the front line. By then,

Here comes our chance to make a fortune, hehe."

The dry food carried by a Japanese soldier can usually last for six days. In wartime, it will be more, but not much more.

Battalion Commander Wang Fafa nodded: "Yes, the Japanese and puppet troops attacking northwest Shanxi this time exceed 100,000 people. With so many troops eating horse chews, the daily consumption of food and materials is not a small amount. It is certain to make a fortune."

."

What the Eighth Route Army was most interested in was ambushing Japanese and puppet army transport convoys.

In Li Yunlong's words, he guarded the enemy's traffic lines, drank spicy food and smoked cigarettes and drank alcohol to get the job done.

At this moment, a soldier hurried over and saluted Zhao Youliang: "Report to the battalion commander, a man claiming to be the communications company commander of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region has arrived and wants to see you and Battalion Commander Wang.

."

Zhao Youliang and Wang Fafa looked at each other in surprise, and then stood up at the same time.

"Where are the people?"

"Bring him here."

The two battalion commanders said almost simultaneously.

The soldier turned and left, and soon he brought two Eighth Route Army soldiers, led by a dark-faced man who looked strong and shrewd.

Behind the man was a slightly immature soldier, two Eighth Route Army soldiers, each holding a Japanese army horse, carrying bullet bags and dry food bags, and carrying Type 38 rifles on their backs. They looked a little tired.

"These two are the battalion commanders of our new regiment."

The soldier in charge of leading the way from the new regiment introduced.

The man came up and gave a standard military salute: "I am Li Changsheng, commander of the communications company of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region. Are you Battalion Commander Wang Fangfa and Battalion Commander Zhao Youliang of the New Regiment?"

"Zhao Youliang, commander of the seventh battalion of the new regiment division."

"Wang Fafa, commander of the Sixth Battalion of the New Regiment Division."

The two battalion commanders were a little confused, but they still returned the military salute.

Li Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief: "Finally found you!"

Zhao Youliang was wary in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face: "Hello, Captain Li, do you have anything to do with us?"

The communications company commanders of every military region are not good at making mistakes. For example, Lu Yingjun, the current battalion commander of the 1st Division of the New Regiment, used to be the communications company commander of the Southern Hebei Military Region.

The man in front of him exuded a shrewd temperament, and he did not completely believe the identity of the man in front of him.

Li Changsheng said: "That's it. I came to Hengshan to find you on orders from the Eighth Route Army Headquarters."

Zhao Youliang and Wang Fafa were even more surprised: "You came to us under the order of the headquarters?"

"That's right!" Li Changsheng nodded, "The head of the headquarters asked me to find you and immediately use the radio to contact the headquarters of the New Regiment. Commander Li has important orders."

Zhao Youliang and Wang Fafa were suddenly startled, looked at each other, then thought for a moment and nodded slightly at each other.

It shouldn't be a lie. Only the regimental commanders know the hiding places of their two battalions.

There must be something important at the head of the regiment, so he would notify the headquarters and send people from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region to find them.

If their hiding place was exposed, they would definitely be surrounded by the Japanese and puppet troops, and they would even call out their names.

The two battalion commanders looked at each other and nodded in agreement.

Zhao Youliang said: "Old Wang, please entertain Captain Li, and I'll ask the telegraph operator to turn on the radio and contact the regiment headquarters."

Wang Fafa nodded and said: "Okay, you go!"

Zhao Youliang walked aside and first used a walkie-talkie to contact the security personnel in charge. After ensuring that there were no abnormalities within a few kilometers, he ordered the telegraph operator to turn on the radio and contact the regiment headquarters.

the other side.

Li Changsheng looked at the canned meat on the pot and couldn't help but swallow his saliva. Then he looked at the weapons and equipment in the hands of the new group of soldiers, with envy in his eyes.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He had long heard that the Xinyi Regiment in the Northwestern Shanxi Military Region was extremely rich, and today he saw that it was indeed well-deserved.

The soldiers of the new regiment ate white flour pancakes and canned meat, and were equipped with semi-automatic rifles, mortars, 0mm machine guns and heavy machine guns.

How damn rich, Li Changsheng sighed from the bottom of his heart.

Wang Fafa brought a can of white flour pancakes to Li Changsheng and another signal soldier.

While chewing heavily, Li Changsheng asked: "I have a cousin named Li Changshun who is a soldier in your new regiment. Do you know Battalion Commander Wang?"

"Li Changshun?" Wang Fafa asked, "Is your cousin a good marksman?"

"Yes, that's right. This boy has been hunting with his father since he was a child. His marksmanship is nothing short of impressive." Li Changsheng nodded hurriedly and said, "That's him. Does Battalion Commander Wang know him?"

"Li Changshun is the famous sharpshooter of our New Regiment. Of course I know him." Wang Fafa said, "But I have only been in the New Regiment not long ago, so I am not very familiar with him."

"That's good."

When he heard the news that his cousin was still alive, Li Changsheng breathed a sigh of relief and smiled.

Bullets and cannonballs don’t have eyes. Who can guarantee that he will not die on the battlefield these days?

After a while, Zhao Youliang came over with the telegram in his hand and winked at Wang Fafa. Wang Fafa said "Excuse me" and immediately walked towards Zhao Youliang.

The two walked aside, and Zhao Youliang handed the telegram to Wang Fafa.

Wang Fafa looked at the telegram, narrowed his eyes slightly, and read out the telegram in a low voice: "The 6th and 7th battalions of the division immediately went north to Pingsui Road, merged with the Independent Second Brigade of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, and ambushed and destroyed the Pingsui Railway.

The arrival time of the Japanese heavy artillery regiment and the enemy heavy artillery regiment in Datong will be notified later. Li Yunlong, the commander of the new regiment..."

Then, he narrowed his eyes and said: "It seems that the Japs' attack on our base area did not go smoothly, and they actually sent out a heavy artillery regiment."

"Haha..." Zhao Youliang sneered, "If you want to transport the heavy artillery regiment from the Pingsui Railway to northwest Shanxi, you have to leave money to buy the road."

After a pause, Zhao Youliang said again: "This must be the information given by Boss Chen. The price for us to kill this heavy artillery unit should not be low!"

"Of course, who is Boss Chen?" Wang Fafa asked, "If you don't take action, then you will be like an airplane or a tank. If you do, it will be an airplane or a tank!"

"But having said that, our two battalions have completed their mission this time, and it must be a great achievement!"

Zhao Youliang said impatiently: "Then what are you waiting for? Let's go quickly!?"

Wang Fafa: "Brother, do you know where the Second Independent Brigade is?"

"Of course I don't know." Zhao Youliang looked at Li Changsheng, "He must know."

After finishing speaking, the two brothers smiled similarly and walked quickly towards Li Changsheng.

About a minute later, Zhao Youliang and Wang Fafa led more than 4,000 commanders and soldiers and marched toward Pingsui Road in the north direction.



Two days later in the afternoon, Peking Station.

Two military trains coming from the direction of Manchuria, escorted by the Type 94 heavy armored train Zhui Feng, slowly drove into Peiping Station.

The deputy chief of staff of the North China Front, Youmo Seizan, came out to receive him.

After the Heavy Artillery Regiment and the Infantry Regiment rested for one night at Peking Station, they headed for Datong along the Ping-Sui Railway early the next morning.

The distance from Peiping to Datong along the Pingsui Railway is more than 300 kilometers.

Based on the average speed of the Japanese train being 30 kilometers per hour, it would take more than 10 hours.

In the afternoon, the convoy arrived at Zhangjiakou Station first. Then, under the order of Okamura Neiji, the heavy artillery regiment and the infantry regiment stopped at the station and were escorted by a Type 94 armored train that had been arranged in advance.

An empty military column headed towards Datong.
