The country is broken

Chief of Staff on the left, what happened to the fortifications at the current arsenal? !Let’s talk about the current progress of Huangya Cave’s defense construction. Commander Peng said to the left chief of staff.

"Okay! Staff Officer Guo, take the area of ​​Huangya Cave." Chief of Staff Zuo shouted to a staff officer who was sorting out documents in the next room.

"Yes!" Staff Officer Guo gave a dumbfounded answer, walked into the inner room guarded by guards, took out two keys at the same time as the guards in charge, opened a heavy safe, and then used the other key to open a drawer. Carefully pulled out a roll of sealed maps, and returned to the room where Commander Peng and Zuo Zhizai, Chief of Staff.

Unfolding the map and spreading it on the table, Staff Officer Guo said, "Report to Commander Peng, the left chief of staff, at the beginning of this year, the 120th Division Special Service Regiment sent people to assist the arsenal to build fortifications, which have been completed one after another before the Yan'an military competition."

As if he knew it well, Staff Officer Guo glanced outside the office, continued to point to the map and said: "The exact location of Huangya Cave is here, in a large natural cave on a cliff at the west end of Chiyugou, 45 miles west of Licheng, and another part of the cave. Lianyi Hidden Valley is the main production area of ​​the Huangyadong Arsenal. There are only two trails to get out of the valley. One is connected to Wangjiayu. The terrain is dangerous and tight. It is not suitable for a large number of people to pass through. It is usually used as an emergency passage and is rarely used. At present, Wangjiayu is still in the battle between the enemy and us, but this route is still under the control of our army. The other is a thousand-meter-long valley, which is the main exit of the arsenal. This is the main direction that the Japanese army is currently targeting. Judging from the attack situation of multiple main forces, it is expected that the enemy will use half of its troops to continuously sweep the base area to attract the main force of our army, and at the same time, multiple units of the Japanese 36th Division will attack the Huangyadong area in turn.” [

Following the long and narrow terrain of Huangya Cave indicated on the map, and using his fingers to indicate the distribution of enemy troops like stingers, Staff Officer Guo continued: "This main road is not so easy to walk, the minimum width in the valley is only 20 meters, The special task force has a line of sky at the south entrance of the two peaks on both sides of the natural waterfall. It has built a suspension bridge and a fortress-style defensive position, and built a circular defensive position in front of the main factory area of ​​the arsenal. The division and the 129th division returned in time after clearing the peripheral enemy forces.

After many days of fighting, and after analysis by the Eighth Route Army's staff, the Japanese army's combat intentions became clear. Okamura Ningji's land was a chain chess game, and many large troops repeatedly raided the base area to make a fuss.At the same time, it also diverted the attention of the Eighth Route Army. On the other hand, the most elite troops went straight into Huangya Cave. Once the battle started, although the natural terrain of Huangya Cave was very convenient for defense, when the elite Japanese troops stormed Huangya Cave, other troops quickly moved closer to Huangya Cave. The two troops merged into one to form an absolutely superior force, repeatedly attacked the exhausted Huangyadong guards, and completed the main task of destroying the Eighth Route Army's arsenal.This is the real intention of Neiji Okamura, commander of the Japanese army in North China.

"Hmm! It seems that Neiji Okamura's multi-faceted strategy has really caused some troubles for our army. However, the terrain of the arsenal is also easy to defend and difficult to attack. It's really a blessing that we were able to find this geomantic treasure in the first place." Commander Peng left and right Looking at this top-secret map of the Eighth Route Army, he said with satisfaction, "This battle is all about will and time. Although the Japanese army has the upper hand, we will use our tactics to encircle the enemy's elite forces and take advantage of Huangya Cave's favorable advantage." , hold back the enemy's elite troops, defeat the enemy attacking Huangya Cave, and then have the spare power to counterattack the other raiding Japanese troops! This is a dangerous move to lure the enemy deep, and the two teams of the 129th Division and the 115th Division are responsible for closing the gate. Light, I hope they can resist other reinforcements from the Japanese army, and the enemies who come to invade Huangya Cave will be wiped out. Then cooperate with the special task force to attack the enemies who come to help, and they must be notified to do a good job of mobilization before the battle."

"A regiment of troops is stationed here. I don't think there are ten times as many troops. I'm afraid it won't be so easy to take down the arsenal. If it wasn't for the purpose of destroying the vitality of the Japanese and puppet troops, so that the soldiers and civilians in the base area could spend the winter with peace of mind, I would really be reluctant to use it. Such a heavy ground bait, old Zuo. How is the preparation of the arsenal?! Don’t steal the chicken and lose the rice.” Neji Okamura has his Zhang Liangji, Commander Peng also has his wall ladder, Commander Peng Seeing that the deployment situation is basically in place, and everything is just waiting for the war to enter the pre-conceived process, the cadres are determined, and they have relaxed a lot about the title of chief of staff.

"The arsenal has been ready for a long time. Except for the heavy equipment that is being dismantled and transferred to hide, the production of guns and grenades has not stopped, and the supply of various troops can still continue, and the rifle can still rely on stock parts to continue to assemble, basically maintaining With one to two days of inventory, even if the enemy comes to the door, the front will fight the front, and the rear will continue to maintain basic production." The chief of staff of the left was formulated at the beginning of the third campaign to strengthen public security issued by the commander-in-chief of the Japanese army in North China, Okamura Neiji. A series of wartime emergency measures were adopted to minimize the impact of the arsenal on the battlefield.

Okamura Ningji tried every means to calculate the Huangyadong Armory of the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army was also calculating him, perfectly commanding his own troops, and at the same time commanding the enemy's troops. This is the art of commanding in war. It is more difficult to see who can use it more delicately.

"Weizi, what's the matter?! Sick?!" Squad leader Lei Long saw Li Wei returning from the temporary regiment headquarters of the third regiment to the second battalion with a pale face.

"Damn it, let someone copy my lair!" Li Wei waved his hand. He just got the news from the Political Commissar Wang of the Regiment Headquarters. I don't know how much painstaking effort I put into pulling up the family property at the beginning. It would be a big battle to let the devils focus on it. God knows how many things will be left after the war.

Thinking of the hard work at the beginning, all kinds of equipment that have begun to show a modern atmosphere, the drug assembly line that took a lot of painstaking efforts, as well as the master machine tool and sub-machine tool made by hand, and a precision machine tool imported from the Netherlands that cost a lot of money, The professional technical team brought back by the Northwest Associated University, folk artisans, returned overseas students and other talents, and the modern prototype firearms designed by Li Wei himself, seeing that they are about to rush to the four modernizations of high-tech, Little Japan is desperately coming Such a move made Li Wei's heart twitch. He didn't even have the confidence to rebuild a Huangyadong arsenal from scratch.

"Are you explaining clearly, why is someone copying your old nest?! Who bullied you, tell us, we have to save face!" Lei Long thought that Li Wei had suffered elsewhere, but relying on Li Wei's style, either nothing happens, or something happens when it happens.

Seeing Lei Long being so active, Li Wei couldn't help but smiled and said, "Come on, we don't have enough people to feed others? More than 15000 devils have gone to our arsenal for trash!" It is estimated that it is not enough for a round of artillery fire.

"What, the arsenal?!" Thunder Dragon's face turned green. He was one of the few people who knew Li Wei's background. The arsenal meant the lifeblood of the Eighth Route Army!Let people copy their lives, and the anti-Japanese forces of the Eighth Route Army will at least be beaten back to the scene before the Red Army just arrived in northern Shaanxi.

"No! I have to discuss it with the Second Battalion Commander Wu. Don't worry, Weizi. Commanders Zhu and Peng will definitely keep the arsenal." Like Li Wei, Lei Long was impatient. The safety of the arsenal is of great importance to everyone. It's all the same for a fighter.

"God bless, Buddha bless, Allah bless..." Li Wei looked at the sky with a rare expression and prayed devoutly. The history of the Anti-Japanese War is hard to count, and he didn't fully understand the fate of Huang Yadong. Accident.

At the same time, I also prayed for Li Wei's 5% private shares in the arsenal, which was the pension money accumulated by the silver dollars saved by Northwest University and the gold bars that Zhao Lei forced in private.

At the same time that Lei Long found Commander Wu's Second Battalion, orders from the headquarters of the Third Regiment had also been issued simultaneously, and the battalions of the Third Regiment assembled at the same time and headed towards the destination.

Considering the national government's ambitions for the Communist Party's armed forces, when they made concessions for the national anti-Japanese united front and accepted the Kuomintang government's incorporation into the No.18 Group Army and the Eighth Route Army, the Communist Party Central Committee kept an extra eye on it. Most of the Red Army troops are not within the standard organizational system of the Eighth Route Army. Most of them use inconspicuous designations such as independent regiments, death columns, and guard regiments, or non-main battle designations to deceive the world and deceive people. What the Kuomintang authorities see is that the regular troops of the Eighth Route Army have mediocre combat effectiveness and do not cause much harm. Therefore, it has the title of Tuba Road, but when encountering real battles, it quietly joins the irregular formation of the main battle old Red Army troops.

The captain of the 36nd Regiment of the 222th Division, Gemu Naoyuki, put down the binoculars and continued to order the troops to move forward. A safe area has been cleared with poisonous gas ahead. A dozen harassing Chinese militiamen were dispersed by the poisonous gas. Soldiers of the 222nd Regiment these days They didn't even have a good meal or a good night's sleep, but every soldier's spirit was very excited. They were not far from Huangya Cave. Completely destroying the arsenal of the Eighth Route Army and spreading out a battlefield where you can fight without being harassed is a strategy adopted to counterattack the guerrilla warfare that the base areas are best at.

The scouts in the front kept reporting the information that the main force of the Japanese army was approaching. The tense atmosphere before the battle in the Huangyadong Armory became more and more serious. The newly arrived special agents had all entered the defensive position, familiarizing themselves with the terrain and conducting defensive drills to prevent unexpected situations.The main equipment has been transferred to the artificially opened side cave in the karst cave area of ​​the arsenal, and the technicians have also been transferred to the hidden cave. Some employees are still doing the camouflage work at the entrance of the hidden cave and the final inspection work in the arsenal. [
