Check in from the bright sword

"Yes." Master Liu said worriedly, "Looking at the aggressive posture of the Japanese army, it is clear that they want to swallow the 386th Brigade in one go!

"I'm not afraid of that." Boss Peng said, "Shanxi is so big, are you afraid that there will be nowhere to go? Shanxi Province is not big enough. The 386th Brigade can still jump out of Shanxi and go to Hebei."

Boss Peng waved his hand and said, "It's just that time is too tight!"

"With such a short time, what is enough time? It's too late to transfer supplies!"

"Can we think of a way to buy some time for the 386 brigade?"

"Boss, I have used all available methods." The left deputy chief of staff shook his head and said, "Our troops in the Taiyue Military Region have been broken into pieces in order to avoid the raids of the devils."

"It is not easy to gather so many troops in such a short period of time."

"The troops assembled now are basically exhausted and can't be stopped."

"There are also brother troops in other base areas. Basically, they have just experienced a wave of devils' raids. It is not easy to drag the devils from all directions to the present."

Master Liu shook his head, and said regretfully: "Then there is no other way, we can only let the 386 brigade evacuate as soon as possible, as for the supplies and equipment in Taiyuan City, take away all that can be taken away."

"As for what can't be taken away, it can only be destroyed on the spot."

"As for the food, let's distribute it to the common people."

Boss Peng nodded and said, "Just call back the 386 Brigade."

"Yes." The left deputy chief of staff agreed, then turned and left with a heavy heart.

Chu Yunfei was also preoccupied at this time.

Although he failed to win the first victory in the Battle of Taiyuan, he was still very happy to be able to break through the Houzai Gate with the assistance of the Independent Regiment and capture the Japanese army's military supplies warehouse in Shanxi.

In any case, the 358 regiment did not come here in vain.

Not only did he sell the Eighth Route Army, but he also got benefits.

More importantly, after this battle, Chu Yunfei officially entered the vision of Chairman Jiang.

In recognition of their 358 regiment's achievements in the battle to recover Taiyuan, the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs just awarded him a third-class Baoding Medal and awarded him 5 French currency.

The rest of the school officers and lieutenants also have rewards.

Therefore, this trip to Taiyuan can be said to be full of rewards.

But because of the full harvest, now I have troubles of happiness.

Chu Yunfei didn't know what to do with the military supplies seized from this large warehouse?

If there was enough time and sufficient transport capacity, Chu Yunfei would of course transport all these materials back to Luliang Mountain without hesitation, not leaving even a single grain of millet to the devil.

The problem is that they simply don't have the time.

And there is simply not so much capacity.

Looking at the piles of cloth, cotton yarn and grain in the warehouse, Chu Yunfei let out a long sigh.

"Burn them all." Chu Yunfei said sadly, "Burn them all, not a single grain of millet is allowed."

"All burned?" Fang Ligong frowned, "Tuan Zuo, there are at least [-] to [-] tons of grain here, and the winter grain that the Shanxi puppet government just collected last year is probably all here."

"If it is transported back to the west of Shanxi, it will be enough to feed the entire Jinsui army for three years!"

"It's a pity that so much food was burned all at once!"

"What else can I do if I don't burn them? Keep them and return them to the little devil?"

Fang Ligong fell silent immediately, yes, it can't be returned to the little devil, right?

Qian Bojun, commander of the 1st Battalion, said: "Regimental Commander, our 358th Regiment is short of manpower, but isn't there still hundreds of thousands of ordinary people in Taiyuan City? It won't be a problem to recruit tens of thousands of civilians, right?"

"With Wanminfu, even if we can't transport all these supplies back."

"But at least part of it can be recited, which is better than burning it all."

"I'm afraid this is impossible." Fang Ligong sighed, "Couldn't Battalion Commander Qian feel that the attitude of the people of Taiyuan towards our Jinsui army is not as good as before when we fight back this time?"

"So don't say Wan, I'm afraid that even Qian Minfu will not be recruited."

"That's out of their hands." Qian Bojun snorted, "This is to serve the country, anyone who dares to refuse will be shot!"

"Fart!" Chu Yunfei said angrily, "What's the difference between doing this and a devil? Our Jinsui Army is here to protect the people of Taiyuan, not to harm them!"

Qian Bojun then stopped talking in embarrassment.

But it could be seen that Qian Bojun was dissatisfied in his heart.

"Don't mention the forced recruitment of civilian husbands!" Chu Yunfei snorted, and said to Li Gong, "Brother Li Gong, pass on my order, no one is allowed to harass the people of Taiyuan!"

After finishing speaking, he gave Qian Bojun a cold look, and said: "Anyone who violates the order will be shot to death!"

"Yes!" Fang Ligong agreed, then turned around and arranged for messengers to convey orders to the battalions.

After Fang Ligong finished making arrangements, Chu Yunfei pulled his military uniform again and said, "Brother Ligong, come with me to the Drum Tower to see if there are any extra trucks in the 386th Brigade of the Eighth Route Army."

"Oh, that's right." Fang Ligong said, "The Eighth Route Army has seized a lot of trucks. They have enough capacity. Maybe they can borrow some from us."

"Whether you have it or not, you have to ask." After Chu Yunfei finished speaking, he tugged on his military uniform, turned around and walked out of the regiment headquarters.

Chapter 303 Counting the spoils (begging for a monthly pass)

When Chu Yunfei came to the Drum Tower, the brigade commander was taking stock of the spoils.

In this battle of Taiyuan, the 386 brigade really made a fortune.

Since the 358 regiment took the lead in the tens of thousands of tons of supplies in the military supply warehouse, the brigade commander didn't plan to ask Chu Yunfei to congratulate him on getting rich. After all, he was just a friendly army.

But all the treasuries seized by the independent regiment were confiscated by the brigade commander.

The banknotes in the treasury have not been counted, but even the most conservative estimate, there are at least 8000 to [-] million lackey tickets!This is undoubtedly a huge sum of money!It can greatly alleviate the problem of the Eighth Route Army's shortage of funds.

In addition to the running dog tickets worth 8000 million, there are more than 10 taels of gold!

1 Taels of gold is about one ounce. According to the price of gold at this time of 35 US dollars, this is another huge sum of more than 350 million US dollars!

Moreover, gold is still hard currency and can be used everywhere.

Unlike running dog tickets, which have circulation restrictions, they cannot be used in the border areas.

In fact, after taking Taiyuan, the 386 brigade can benefit far more than these economically.
