Before coming, Zhou Weihan made a special calculation.
The 38 cap used by the little devil uses a bridge clip with a five-round ammunition capacity. Each box contains 1,440 rounds of bullets. Three hundred thousand rounds of 6.5mm bullets require at least 200 boxes.
The 11.4mm machine gun ammunition used in the Maxim heavy machine gun is 100,000 rounds. The bullet box contains four 250-round ammunition belts, which requires 100 boxes.
There are 200,000 rounds of 7.9mm machine gun ammunition used in the Czech light machine gun. Each box of bullets has 500 rounds and requires 400 boxes.
In addition to weapons such as Sanba Gaigai, artillery shells, grenades, etc., the number of weapons and ammunition transported into boxes this time was about 1,300 boxes.
These weapons, ammunition, and auxiliary supplies were transported by horse-drawn carriages, requiring at least 60 horse-drawn carriages.
And just when Dong Jiang was taking people to count the supplies, there was another movement along the Zhang River.
Huilong Town, the northernmost town in Neihuang, is the closest Japanese stronghold next to the Zhang River. Even so, the Japanese army does not have troops stationed along the long and winding Zhang River.
Because in the view of the Japanese army, although the Zhanghe River crosses multiple Eighth Route Army base areas, it is not enough to become a way for them to attack the Eighth Route Army base areas.
At this time, a group led by Jing Dagang was secretly gathering in the northwest of Huilong Town.
"Captain, the Sixth Company is not in place yet, what should we do?"
In order to prevent being discovered by Japanese spies, the First Regiment marched alone in company units. Now it was time to assemble troops to seize and cut off the Japanese army's highway, but the Sixth Company had not arrived to assemble. Li Ziwen, political commissar of the First Regiment, was anxious.
Everyone would say that their brows are burning.
"What? How did Cheng Zhuangfei become the company commander?" Jing Dagang was also stunned when he heard this.
The situation of the current regiment is somewhat special. The personnel structure is not enough. Chief of Staff Xin Tiebing stayed in Luling Town with a battalion and a heavy machine gun company.
The Fourth Company of the Second Battalion was transferred out to form an independent regiment. As a result, Jing Dagang only had five infantry companies, two heavy machine gun companies, the guard company, the artillery company, and the baggage company directly under the regiment headquarters.
was left in the base area.
At this time, the full strength of the regiment was less than 1,400, which is why Zhou Weihan handed over the task of facing the enemy head-on to Li Yunlong's new regiment.
"We can't wait any longer. Our mission is inherently uncertain. It's hard to say where the main force of the Japanese army is now. We must get there as soon as possible!"
"In this case, let the security company send out a squad to see if they can contact the Sixth Company!" Jing Dagang said.
"That's all we can do, I'll make arrangements!" Li Ziwen said.
While the two were talking, the third battalion commander Huang Wensheng hurried over to report: "Captain, our battalion went out and stared at the soldiers in the direction of Huilong Town to report. There were gunshots coming from the southeast of Huilong Town. The Japanese puppets in Huilong Town."
The army has sent reinforcements!"
"It's broken. The Sixth Company must have been discovered by the enemy!" Jing Dagang was shocked.
After hearing this, Li Ziwen felt anxious. The troops were discovered by the enemy before they arrived at the designated location. However, Li Ziwen did not say anything. At this time, Jing Dagang, the military commander, still needed to make a decision.
"The detachment leader often said that if you continue to break off, you will suffer chaos. The Sixth Company was exposed. The Japanese army could easily guess the intention of detouring back to Long. They would eat the group of Japanese troops fighting with the Sixth Company and then rush southward!" Jing Dagang
Said decisively.
The situation at the Sixth Company was more complicated.
At first, after the First Regiment divided its troops in the base area, the Sixth Company followed the established route all the way west. In order to avoid being discovered by the Japanese spy, they took a lot of wrongful detours.
As they approached Huilong Town, the vanguard in front suddenly spotted a Japanese and puppet army of more than a hundred people.
At that time, the Sixth Company Commander didn't pay much attention, thinking that the Japanese and puppet troops who had returned to Long Town had gone to the countryside to raid the area, and immediately ordered his troops to bypass this group of Japanese and puppet troops.
But the good times did not last long. Before the troops had walked for a while, they unexpectedly ran into another group of enemies.
Huang Wensheng, the commander of the sixth company, stepped forward and took a look. He took a breath of air. There were more than 400 Japanese troops in front of him, with a strength of almost two squadrons. The accompanying mules and horses also carried Type 92 infantry artillery.
Now even a fool would know that these little devils must be heading for the base area. Huang Wensheng immediately ordered all the soldiers of the Sixth Company to choose favorable terrain to block the attack and wait for the main support of the regiment.
By the time Jing Dagang and his troops arrived following the sound of gunfire, the Sixth Company had already retreated while fighting and was standing guard on a small hill.
In addition to the Japanese troops who were attacking the hill head-on, half a small group of Japanese troops had already touched the flanks of the Sixth Company, and more than a hundred Japanese and puppet troops from the Japanese vanguard also dared to come upon hearing the news.
"Damn it, the little devil quietly sent out so many troops to raid our home. Fortunately, we caught him, otherwise the political commissar really doesn't know what would have happened!" Jing Dagang looked at the scene in front of him and couldn't help but think.
Take a breath of air.
"Yes, the independent regiment has just been formed. It's the first time to fight against the Japs. It's hard to say how much fighting power it will have!" Li Ziwen also had Yu Ji's heart.
