Bright Sword's Bloody War of Resistance

In the first month of the lunar year, a huge transport convoy passed through the territory of Inner Mongolia, passed through Suiyuan, and finally arrived in northern Shaanxi.

Strangely, when the transport convoy passed the defense zone of the [-]th Army of the National Army along the way, not only did the other side not stop it, but the personnel directly under its military department went to various traffic arteries to order it to go.

After that, the weapons and equipment of the three divisions first arrived at the defense area of ​​the 120th division, and finally arrived in northern Shaanxi.

40 years ago, especially between 1937 and 1939, because Big Brother needed to assist the national government through the road from the frontier to Lanzhou, this road was almost completely in the hands of Big Brother, so Big Brother specially arranged for the Eighth Route Army to station in Borderland and Lanzhou The office undertook the important task of secretly receiving and transshipping Big Brother's weapons, and the Eighth Route Army naturally transported a large amount of weapons and equipment from it.

However, in the second half of 1938, the matter aroused the attention of the national government, which began to strengthen the monitoring of the Big Brother transport convoy and control the road traffic to Yanzhou. The secret weapon assistance began to decrease, but it has not stopped.

It was not until the middle of 1939 that the national government completely cut off the secret transportation route.

The weapons and equipment transported successively were given priority to the formation regiments of the three divisions under the Eighth Route Army. The Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei and Shandong affiliated to the 115th Division had the most, the Taihang, Taiyue, and Southern Hebei Divisions of the 129th Division were in the middle, and the 120th Division received the least weapons and equipment.

After the 40-year Tainan Anti-Stubborn War, the KMT and the Communist Party reached an agreement that the Nationalist government allowed the Eighth Route Army to secretly open up new transportation routes.

It's just that after that, the national government deliberately shelved the matter until the battle of Changzhi started, and the matter was brought up again.

Fu Ben in Suiyuan had a good relationship with the Eighth Route Army. The Shanbei Public School and the Anti-Japanese University in Yanzhou sent a large number of outstanding students to the [-]th Army, which enriched Fu's anti-Japanese forces.

Then the Eighth Route Army contacted Zhou Nanfeng, a member and secretary of the Political Guidance Office under the Political Work Committee of the North Route Army.

At that time, Fu's troops had already dominated Suiyuan and had a close relationship with the Eighth Route Army, but it was not enough for Fu to take the "danger" to allow the Eighth Route Army to pass through the defense zone.

Fortunately, Suiyuan has a vast land and sparse population, and its products are barren. In the end, the Eighth Route Army exchanged materials produced by various factories in northern Shaanxi for a convoy to pass through Suiyuan's transportation channel.

the end of the first month.

The weapons and equipment of the three divisions were successively transported from northern Shaanxi to the various base areas. According to the comprehensive consideration of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, the equipment of two divisions was transported to the Taihang Mountain base where the headquarters is located, and the equipment of the other division was transported to the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base.

According to the final negotiation between the top of the Eighth Route Army and Big Brother, Shui Lianzhu was replaced with heavy weapons and ammunition.

最后一个师的武器配备标准，具体情况如下：每师装备76MM野炮8+4门（总计36门，附炮弹3.6万发）、M1930型37MM战防炮4+4门（总计24门，附炮弹2.4万发）、PM1910马克沁重机枪24挺（总计72挺）、DP27轻机枪40挺（总计120挺），提供轻重机枪子弹200万发。

In the headquarters, the boss and others also made a distribution plan in advance.

It was originally decided that the four military regions of Taibei, Taiyue, Tainan, and Hebei would equally distribute the weapons and equipment of two divisions. However, during the Chinese New Year, Zhou Weihan made a suggestion.

The four anti-aircraft guns assigned by the Tainan Military Region were replaced with [-] rounds of [-]-cap bullets. At that time, the boss angrily scolded Zhou Weihan for his shrewd calculation.

The words are divided into two parts.

At this time, Zhou Weihan is still too south, but Yan Wangshan and Pingshun are running at both ends.

Tan Lin, who was far away in Hebei, Shandong and Henan, did not rush to send a telegram to urge Zhou Weihan to go back. On the contrary, Zhao Gang suggested that Zhou Weihan pay attention to the influence, don't be gentle in the countryside, and return to Hebei, Shandong and Henan as soon as possible.

"Old Zhou, calculate the time. It has been a month since you came back. Is it appropriate for you to leave Comrade Tan Lin alone in Jiluyu?" Zhao Gang glanced at Zhou Weihan and said.

Zhou Weihan had his own way of saying: "Old Zhao, you don't think I'm really indulging in tenderness!"

"The combat effectiveness of the new regiment is still recovering, and the first division is still building up the main force. The most important thing is that Comrade Tan Lin needs to establish his prestige in Hebei, Shandong and Henan. I am not here just to give him a chance!"

Anyway, what Zhou Weihan said was clear and logical, and Zhao Gang couldn't tell whether it was an excuse or the real thing for a while.

While the two were talking, the telegraph operator from the headquarters came to report.

"Report, a telegram from headquarters!"

"Read!"

"Political commissar, we don't have the code book of the corresponding level, so we can't translate it!" said the telegrapher.

Then Zhou Weihan waved his hand to signal the telegraph operator to go down, and Zhao Gang took out a code book.

Regarding this highly encrypted headquarters telegram, Zhou Weihan and the two dared not neglect it, and took the cipher book to translate it word by word.

"The weapons supported by Big Brother have arrived, six 76MM field guns, [-] shells, [-] Maxim heavy machine guns, [-] light machine guns, [-] rounds of light and heavy machine gun bullets, plus [-] rounds of [-] large cap bullets !"

"Old Zhou, this business is worth it. The national army traded it with real money. We got it for nothing. The big brother is quite interesting. It's the equipment of the three divisions!" Zhao Gang said excitedly.

"It's a pity, the troops of our Eighth Route Army are developing too fast, these equipments are useless, they can only be equipped for the first-rate main force, but it is enough to get these weapons and equipments for nothing!"

"It would be great if we could have a few large-caliber heavy artillery, or support a few tanks!" Zhou Weihan said with a little regret.

"That's right, but how do we divide these equipments, can't we still divide them equally?" Zhao Gang asked Zhou Weihan for his opinion.

"That must not be the case. I have already greeted several regiment leaders. Don't worry about these equipments. I want to form a gun regiment for these equipments. This way I can give full play to its advantages and replenish ammunition!"

"At present, the two mountain artillery companies of the Artillery Battalion have been transferred to Hebei, Shandong and Henan. It is not easy to get started with these six field artillery. It is better to supply them to the artillery battalion, so that Chen Feng can study how to use them first. However, the two 105 howitzers and the anti-aircraft artillery are even more expensive. Go to Jiluyu!"

"I will take all the remaining weapons and equipment to Hebei, Shandong and Henan. The Hebei, Shandong and Henan areas are mostly plains, so the chariots can't be thrown in the corners and rusted. I will take them with me this time!"

At the end, Zhou Weihan added another sentence: "Old Zhao, you have no objection!"

"Heh, I said you're holding back. It turns out that you are thinking about this batch of weapons and equipment. Okay, we are not short of these equipments in Tainan. The base of Hebei, Shandong and Henan is weak. Let's go with them first. In short, the meat is Rotten in the pot!" Zhao Gang said with a smile.

Zhou Weihan chuckled: "You still understand me!"

"Come on!"

"Monk, go and send a report to the She County Cadre Group, and ask Ding Sheng to send someone to the headquarters to get the equipment!"
