The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

Kong Jie was much more stable, and he didn't immediately nod because of Li Yunlong's affirmation.

After Huang Yu finished speaking, he suddenly asked, "Have you considered the issue of ammunition?"

"Even if we have enough time to storm Baoding."

"After all, there are tens of thousands of puppet troops in the city."

"Siege warfare consumes the most ammunition. After a battle, an average of [-] rounds of bullets can kill a Japanese puppet army, which means saving bullets."

"Baoding's city defenses are solid, and the Japanese and puppet troops are defending against danger. After the entire siege battle, we can kill a Japanese and puppet army with a hundred bullets and it will be considered a big victory."

"There are more than [-] Japanese and puppet troops in the city. At this rate of wear and tear, millions of rounds of light bullets will be consumed."

"At the very least, there are thousands of rounds of shells."

"The base area has just undergone a major sweep, and the previous ammunition reserves have almost been consumed."

"Just wait to take Baoding and replenish the ammunition and supplies that the Japanese army has stored in Baoding City."

"Even if we have the conditions to attack Baoding now, we won't be able to produce so many ammunition reserves."

"If the battle reaches halfway, the troops will run out of ammunition. Not only will they not be able to attack Baoding, but all the ammunition consumed before will be wasted."

"If Neiji Okamura takes the opportunity to send heavy troops to attack the Yizhong base, we will fight against the Japanese and puppet troops with empty guns, and it is very likely that even the base will be lost."

Huang Yu thought for a while and replied: "Leader..."

"We may not be able to produce 100 million rounds of ammunition, but we will definitely have 70 million rounds of ammunition."

"We don't have enough shells, we can make up with dynamite packs."

"Directly loaded with black powder, although the power is not as powerful as high explosives."

"But as long as the charge is large enough, the power is still much greater than that of ordinary mortar shells."

"Before you come to Baoding."

"The Shunping garrison has laid down several military columns."

"Especially the special forces pretending to be railway guerrillas."

"Successfully captured two military columns and transported a full hundred carts of ammunition."

"Combined with the seizures in other battles, I can gather 50 rounds of ammunition and [-] shells here."

Although Li Yunlong is the kind of master who can only get in and out, he still has a clear distinction in front of the overall situation.

Looking at Kong Jie, he said heartbrokenly: "The Duyi Regiment has gained a lot of victories after entering Baoding. After deducting the loss, it can make up 20 rounds of ammunition and [-] shells."

"If other troops need it, I can take out all these ammunition."

Huang Yu followed up and said, "The base area has been producing black powder."

"All of them are made into special explosive packs for Feilei Cannon, and the high explosives are made into propellants."

"It's definitely no problem to make a thousand."

"It's equivalent to directly adding a thousand mountain artillery shells to us."

"The Shunping garrison regiment and the Wangdu garrison regiment did not enter Baoding to participate in the battle."

"But last time the anti-sweeping regiments both seized a lot of weapons and ammunition."

"Both regiments must be able to gather [-] rounds of ammunition and six or seven hundred shells."

Li Yunlong became excited again, and immediately asked Kong Jie: "There are 90 rounds of ammunition, about [-] rounds of various shells."

"After entering Baoding, the Duer Regiment captured many strongholds along the railway line, and cooperated with the Duer Regiment to fight two battles of annihilation. It should have gained a lot. 15 rounds of ammunition can definitely be collected."

"That's more than a million rounds."

"Idiot Kong Er, the ammunition problem you were worried about has been solved."

"In order for us to have a little more time to attack the city, I suggest that the troops start operations tonight."

While speaking, he turned his gaze to Huang Yu: "Little Huang..."

"How do you want to attack Baoding..."

"To be more specific, Kong Er and I will help you as a staff officer. If we can do it, we will do it immediately."

Huang Yu strode to the table, picked up a pencil and began to draw on a pile of paper. Kong Jie and Li Yunlong hurried over.

After a while, the expressions on the faces of the two were replaced by shock...

…………

At [-] p.m., the last troops from along the railway line entered Baoding.

The open city was immediately closed.

More than 100 puppet soldiers rushed into the city gate with explosives, intending to seal the city gate completely.

Although Li Yunlong failed to win Baoding last time, he managed to break through the North Gate.

The key is that the Eighth Route Army used mountain artillery to blast open the city gate, and the Eighth Route Army took advantage of the shortage of city defense troops to enter the city.

If the north gate was sealed with sandbags at that time, the Eighth Route Army would not be able to blow open the city gate no matter how many mountain guns they were equipped with.

This is the lesson of blood.

No matter how stupid Major General Kawasaki is, he would not make the same mistake twice.

Guessing that the Yizhong Eighth Route Army might storm Baoding, he gave the order to block the city gate.

If the returning reinforcements come an hour later, they can only enter the city through a hanging basket.

Major General Kawasaki stood on the gate tower, watching the last gate of Baoding slowly being sealed, the corners of his mouth could not help but curl up.

Sitting on more than [-] troops, relying on Baoding's solid fortifications, it has sufficient ammunition and can receive air support at any time. Ten days later, there will be at least one division of troops to reinforce Baoding.

Under such circumstances, Major General Kawasaki has at least [-]% certainty to defend Baoding and defeat all invading enemies.

Lieutenant Assistant Cunshang was very good at looking at people, and while Major General Kawasaki was in a good mood, he hurriedly reported: "General..."

"According to the scheduled defense plan."

"Nine hundred imperial troops are stationed in each direction in Baoding, and the two battalions of the Imperial Association Army have a total of more than [-] people."

"Equipped with ten heavy machine guns and more than forty light machine guns."

"It is enough to make the four walls into a copper wall and an iron wall."

"As long as the Yizhong Eighth Route Army dares to come, I guarantee that they will smash their heads outside the city."

"There are more than 4000 troops and assistants in the city, of which 1000 are patrolling and guarding the city to eliminate possible troublemakers."

"The remaining 3000 people will serve as a mobile force directly under the headquarters, and they will reinforce the battlefield at any time to check for omissions and make up for vacancies."

"Where's the artillery?" Major General Kawasaki asked a very critical question.

"We lost several times at the hands of the Eighth Route Army in the Yizhong because of their artillery."

"They had a battalion of sixteen-gun field guns a few months ago."

"After such a long period of development, this artillery unit must be only strong but not weak."

"Concentrate on one point and blast fiercely, and there is still a high possibility that Baoding Chengqiang will be blown out of a gap."

"The best way is to fight with an eye for an eye, and eat the trump card in the hands of the Eighth Route Army."

Lieutenant Commander Cunshang knew every unit in the city like the back of his hand, and said bluntly: "There is a field artillery squadron in the city, three mountain artillery squadrons, and a total of sixteen mountain artillery squadrons."

"But the Baoding Arsenal also reserves two field cannons and six mountain cannons."

"The humble staff divided them into four and strengthened four mountain artillery squadrons respectively."

"The number of mountain field artillery that can participate in the battle in the city is directly increased to 22."

"As long as the Field Artillery Battalion of the Eighth Route Army dares to take action, I will guarantee that they will never return."

"There are also five infantry artillery squads, with ten infantry artillery under them."

"Five mortar squadrons, six mortar teams, a total of 68 mortars."

"Regardless of quantity or quality, it is far superior to the subordinate artillery units of the Eighth Route Army in Yizhong."
