Chapter 637 Warehouse
Wang Xuexin personally led a team to pry open a warehouse.

This warehouse was originally used by the Jinsui army to store salt... The way of producing salt in this era is still relatively backward, basically relying on the method of drying salt in the sky. Simply put, it is to pour lake water into the salt pond and expose it to the sun, and the water evaporates. To a certain extent, the salt particles will crystallize and sink to the bottom of the pool.

Salt production by this method is obviously mainly in summer and autumn, and the cost of salt production will be high if the temperature drops in winter and freezes into blocks.

Therefore, Yuncheng, the main salt-producing area in Shanxi, over-produced salt in summer and autumn and slowly sold it in warehouses.

At this time, the salt in the warehouse has been emptied by the devils... There is no need for the devils to keep too much salt in Yuncheng. Linfen, Taiyuan and other places need salt, so they transport weapons and equipment to store in the warehouse. When the salt is transported back.

There is not just one warehouse, but more than a dozen mud houses with tile roofs that resemble simple factory buildings, each of which is at least a few hundred square meters.

Wang Xuexin was worried that the devils would ignite and detonate the ammunition before retreating, so when the tank company attacked the north gate, he took the monk's reconnaissance company to seize the warehouse... This is one of the reasons why Wang Xuexin brought the monk's reconnaissance company One, this unit is not only well-trained, but more importantly, it has many snipers.

Wang Xuexin ordered the monk: "Move quickly, don't give the enemy any time and opportunity to blow up the warehouse and burn supplies!"

"Yes!" The monk patted his chest and assured Wang Xuexin: "Don't worry, Battalion Commander, it's on me!"

Don't look at the monk's carelessness, there are times when he is careful when fighting.

He thought about it: the devils are guarding the ammunition depot. If they find that they can't defend it, they only need to throw a grenade or explosive package into the depot. Therefore, it will definitely not work as usual, no matter how fast it is. But a grenade!
Thinking about it, the monk waved his hand and whispered to the deputy company commander Shi Sha, Shi Sha listened and nodded repeatedly.

The reconnaissance company actually divided into two teams to attack the warehouse. The monk used this trick called "Mingxiu plank road to cross Chencang secretly"... Shi Sha feigned an attack from the front, fired a few shots and killed a few devils but did not launch a strong attack.

Under such circumstances, the devils would not detonate the warehouse and self-destruct as soon as they came up.

This is because everyone has the desire to live, and no one is willing to die with the warehouse until the last moment.

On the other hand, Yuncheng has lost its effective command at this time... The headquarters in the center of the city was captured by the Eighth Route Army with lightning speed.

The result of fighting each other is that the warehouse does not know how the battle situation in the city is, and even most of them think that the battle situation is beneficial to the imperial army.

Just like the squadron leader Murayama stationed in the warehouse said to his subordinates: "The Eighth Route Army is simply throwing itself into a trap. As long as our reinforcements arrive, they will soon be surrounded and wiped out in the city!"

Captain Murayama firmly believed in this from beginning to end, and even woke up after being knocked out at the end, he still did not believe that Yuncheng would fall.

Because this is really unbelievable, this is Yuncheng, a strong city defended by a division, it will be captured by the Eighth Route Army in such a short period of time?

impossible!
There must be something wrong.

The other devils also firmly believed in this, so the situation was actually not as dangerous as the monk thought, thinking that the devils would blow up the warehouse at any time.

The fact is: the devil thought that the battle in Yuncheng was always under control, so he never thought of blowing up the warehouse but defending the warehouse.

What's more, the devils stationed in his warehouse, including Captain Murayama, thought that even if the warehouse fell, the imperial reinforcements would arrive and take it back.

Therefore, in any case, he would not choose to bomb the warehouse. Doing so would only make himself a sinner of the empire.

But the monk still carried out the attack plan on the assumption that the devils would blow up the warehouse.

When Shi Sha led a platoon to attract the firepower and attention of the devils, the monk led two platoons to seize the commanding heights nearby. The sharpshooters climbed to the roof one by one to block the entrance and exit of the warehouse from all angles and directions and provide cover for the ground troops. .

Then, the monk led the troops to sneak into the warehouse by crossing the wall in the dark.

This was too easy for the soldiers of the reconnaissance company. The wall was only more than three meters high, and there was no barbed wire at the top of the wall with triangular glass to prevent climbing.

This is not to say that the devils can't afford to pull the barbed wire, but that they feel that the warehouse is very safe in Yuncheng, and there is no need to pull the barbed wire at all.

This is also the reason why this huge warehouse is only defended by more than 100 people... Although the Murayama Squadron is a squadron, it has no time to replenish after the battle damage. There are only 110 people in total, and more than [-] of them are transport teams Responsible for ammunition distribution and deployment.

The soldiers of the reconnaissance company hooked the wall with a multifunctional engineering shovel, climbed up and covered the triangular glass with cotton clothes on the wall, and then easily climbed over.

Then, before the devils found them, the soldiers had quietly killed the sentries guarding the warehouse door one by one and occupied the warehouse.

Among them, Squadron Leader Murayama was fiddling with radio stations on the ground with several communication soldiers... He tried to use the radio to contact the headquarters to inquire about the situation and next instructions. What he didn't know was that the headquarters had been occupied and even Anda 23 was also fleeing. On the road, of course it is impossible to turn on the phone and give him instructions.

The monk was originally a ruthless master, and he was never soft on the devils. Few of the devils who passed his hands survived and became captives.

But this time the situation was special. Because the monks were worried that the gunshots would expose their tactics of "surreptitiously passing through the warehouse" prematurely, they went up to knock Murayama unconscious with a gun butt, and then pointed the messenger's head with a submachine gun.

The communications soldiers didn't dare to resist, so they could only raise their hands in astonishment... They thought that the imperial army was about to win a complete victory, but who would have thought that the Eighth Route Army would have already approached from behind.

Then the monk led the team to rush behind the devil, and took down the warehouse cleanly.

Of course, the sharpshooter also played its due role... One by one, the devils who tried to resist were knocked down to the ground as soon as they made a move.

This is an invisible pressure. There seem to be countless pairs of eyes and countless black muzzles facing them in the darkness. As a result, the squadron of devils collapses and loses combat effectiveness in an instant. In the end, half of the devils choose to let go under this pressure. Surrender of weapons... This is rare on the battlefield. Devils often still have combat effectiveness after more than half of the casualties.

Wang Xuexin thought that the reason why so many people surrendered may be because the reconnaissance company not only defeated them in battle, but also defeated them psychologically.
