Bright Sword: Start with Ding Blast Bridge, Homemade Sweet Potato Cake

"Captain, the backyard is full of food, full of white flour and rice."

The soldier came over excitedly to report.

This was within Ding Wei's expectations. The stronghold that could accommodate two to three hundred people was like a carefully built small town.

The Japanese invaders and puppet troops reduced daily transportation and prevented sneak attacks during the transportation process.

A certain amount of daily supplies will be stored in the stronghold to ensure food and drink for the stationed troops for one or two months.

The New 1st Regiment was lucky as the Chenjiazhuang stronghold had just been replenished with oil, food and vegetables.

Bags of rice and flour made the brothers smile happily.

Zhuzi and Zhang Dabiao worked together to get out holding a heavy machine gun.

This is the Type 24 heavy machine gun equipped by the Central Army, a replica of the Maxim, with 3000 rounds of ammunition.

The puppet army wasted some of them, and there were still 2400 rounds of bullets.

Fun.

The Japanese seized weapons from the National Army and gave them to the puppet army.

In addition to this heavy machine gun, there are also two Czech-style rifles. The other rifles are made in foreign countries, and there are all kinds of rifles.

There are also homemade guns. Except for light and heavy machine guns, the others are not in Ding Wei's eyes.

"One shell in exchange for these things, isn't this a good deal?"

"It's a good deal, absolutely a good deal, Captain, don't forget the sweet potato stew you promised."

Zhuzi still remembers this incident. The brothers have been figuring it out for several days, and he was still grumbling in his heart when he fired just now.

I was afraid that the shot would miss and waste a shell.

Ding Wei laughed, his contribution was indispensable to the sweet potato stew.

Then arrange new deployment tasks.

"Captain of the First Battalion, arrange for the First Company to garrison at Chenjia Village, find out the situation inside the village, and wipe out the bandits and traitors."

"Arrange the 2nd Company to go south and be responsible for investigating the Japanese in the Yu County area. Chenjiazhuang is close to the Zhengtai Line, so we must keep an eye on the movements of the Japanese at all times."

"Arrange the 3rd Company to go west to scout the Japanese and puppet troops in the direction of Dingxiang and Wutai and ensure the safety of the regiment headquarters."

This mountainous area belonged to the New 1st Regiment, which deployed six companies to block all intersections in the mountainous area.

The remaining cavalry company and two recruit companies continued their training in Chenjiazhuang.

Chen Damazi escaped from the stronghold and ran all the way south to Yu County.

There are the Japanese gendarmerie here, as well as several other groups of puppet army security teams.

"Eighth Route Army, New 1st Regiment, we have artillery!"

Chen Damazi was panicked and sent the most effective message.

The gendarmerie captain Doi immediately asked someone to bring Chen Damazi.

Ask for combat details.

"Taijun, our brothers died tragically. The New 1st Regiment pushed a brand new small steel cannon and shouted at me to surrender with my brothers. How can we surrender to the Eighth Route Army when we are fed by Taijun?"

"I decisively refused and led my brothers to fight the Eighth Route Army with machine gun fire and grenades roaring."

"It's a pity that this group of Eighth Route Army soldiers have strong firepower. Their small steel cannons are firing at the turrets, but we can't stop them."

He spoke vividly, dressing himself up as a man who had fought a bloody battle and made a desperate attempt to break out, and who came in a hurry to deliver the information.

He didn't mention at all his act of running away without firing a shot.

The fat translator translated something in Captain Doi's ear.

The devil's face became increasingly gloomy.

"Baga, the New 1st Regiment has eliminated the Chenjiazhuang stronghold and lost control of a large area of ​​mountainous area."

"Get out of here, you good-for-nothing."

Doi was a very cruel guy. If it weren't for the fact that Chen Damazi was still useful, he would have wanted to draw his knife and chop him up immediately.

Just came out of Doi,

Chen Damazi was pulled over by several other groups of puppet army leaders to drink.

"Brother Ma Zi, do the Eighth Route Army really have artillery?"

"Of course it's true. A single shot blew a huge hole in the blockhouse. If I hadn't run fast, I would have been caught by the Eighth Route Army."

As he spoke, he opened his hands and gestured with a big hole.

The puppet troops in Yun County were so frightened that they couldn't eat.

"I tell you, don't defend the turret. You can't defend it at all. Seven or eight of my brothers were blown to pieces when a cannon fired at them. Broken arms flew out with blood."

"Look at the blood on me, see it?"

The blood on his body was clearly from scratches he got when he was crawling through the dog hole, and had nothing to do with the little steel cannon.

Since no one saw it, Chen Damazi started bragging.

He couldn't say that he was so scared that he almost wet his pants.

If that's the case, how is he going to survive in the future? No one is going to work for him.

A few guys from the security team were still thinking of going to the mountains to collect grain and recruit laborers.

I felt bad after being frightened by Chen Damazi.

"Chenjiazhuang is not safe anymore. The Eighth Route Army is definitely hanging around there. If you see them, run away as soon as possible. The little steel cannon is too powerful."

"Yes, yes, your life is your own."

The news quickly spread among the puppet army circles in Yun County, and people kept inviting Chen Damazi to dinner.

Ask about the situation of the Eighth Route Army.

When the nearby puppet troops learned that the New 1st Regiment had an infantry gun that could attack artillery towers, they were all terrified.

If the Eighth Route Army attacks, we won’t be able to defend this place at all.

The puppet troops within a 50-kilometer radius, especially those hiding in the artillery tower, were all asking about one thing.

Did the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army really have small cannons?

Seeing everyone's frightened expressions, Chen Damazi suddenly felt that there was nothing shameful about running away.

Everyone was scared to death. Not only did he fight with the Eighth Route Army, but he also managed to escape. It would be considered a big deal if people told others about it.

Several puppet army battalion commanders have asked people to contact Chen Damazi, expressing their willingness to have him serve as his deputy and deputy battalion commander.

Having fought with the Eighth Route Army and been able to escape from artillery fire, Chen Damazi became famous in the puppet army circle.

According to the existing intelligence, the Japanese have basically locked onto the northern part of Yun County and the southwest direction of Wanjiazhai, where a powerful group of Eighth Route Army soldiers are active.

This area should be designated as a key mopping-up area, and reserve mopping-up operations should be carried out. We must find the main force of the new regiment and eliminate them.

Chenjiazhuang, the headquarters of the new regiment was moved there.

Ding Wei arranged several reconnaissance teams to investigate the situation at various intersections along the mountainous areas.

After the new recruit company was transferred here, they trained in the mountainous area in the west.

2000 rounds of ammunition were allocated separately for the recruits to practice shooting.

Talented soldiers are selected and concentrated in the guard company for intensive training.

Taozi and Ding Wei got together and were promoted to company commander of the guard company because of his bravery in fighting at Wangmu Mountain.

Looking at the batch of Soviet-style firearms in the puppet army stronghold, he showed a bit of doubt.

"Captain, how come this group of puppet soldiers have water-repelling rifles?"

"Just use it if I tell you to. Why are you talking so much nonsense? If you don't like it, I'll hand it over to the First Battalion."

"No, no, no, I won't ask anymore. This is a good gun. The brothers in the guard company all like it."

In chaotic times of war, having a good gun is more important than anything else.

These are not captured weapons, so Ding Wei can naturally arrange them.

But he should focus on his own guard company and equip it first.

Dozens of water-breathing rifles and dozens of brand new Type 38 rifles.

With good guns, the veterans' combat capabilities can be further improved.

Apart from anything else, the bayonet on the rifle is more popular than the broadsword blade.

Take this thing and fight the Japanese to the death.

The New 1st Regiment was temporarily safe and could avoid most of the Japanese raids in the mountains.

Ding Wei was thinking about something else.

Not long after he took over the New 1st Regiment, problems arose with Kong Jie's independent regiment.

There is also a special force of the devils active here, led by Colonel Yamamoto, who is proficient in special operations.
