The Sword of Swords is a Guard for Kong Jie

"Tell the artillery to stop, it's a waste of shells to withdraw..." Li Yunlong ordered with a helpless face.

"Captain..."

The combat staff officer lowered his head and reported: "At least a thousand little devils came out of Taiyuan City during the battle just now..."

"Reconnaissance team report..."

"Yoshio Iwamatsu followed the first wave of breakout troops out of Taiyuan, and has retreated three kilometers east of the city, with at least five hundred devils around him, equipped with a large number of light and heavy machine guns and mortars."

"Even if we send out cavalry, we can't take them down."

"Damn..." Li Yunlong punched the battlements like a dragon, and said indignantly.

"Yoshio Iwamatsu, an old devil, is really difficult to deal with..."

"It's all rushed to our mouths... In the end, they let them run away..."

"This bad guy will get it back from him sooner or later."

"Notify the pursuit troops in the city..."

"The fat meat is not late, the soup Yoshio Iwamatsu left behind in the palace must be eaten by Lao Tzu, and no devil can let it go!"

"Send a telegram to Huang Yu immediately."

"Yoshio Iwamatsu led a team to break out of the encirclement from the east of the city. I didn't stop him and let the devils run away with more than 1000 people."

"The inner city of Taiyuan is empty..."

"Let him immediately divide his troops to seize the inner city...especially the arsenal and the Shanxi Garrison Command. The devils must not be blown up."

"Otherwise, our trip to Taiyuan will definitely lose money."

"One row outflanks from the left...the second row outflanks from the right, and the third row infiltrates from the front..." Duan Peng ordered excitedly looking at the Japanese ammunition depot surrounded by courtyard walls not far away.

With a submachine gun in both hands, bent over, like a ghost, he quickly passed along the corner of the wall towards the gate of the arsenal.

Several machine gun positions were piled up with sandbags at the door.

The black wounds of heavy machine guns protruded from behind the sandbags.

Behind the position is the gate of the arsenal and the four-meter-high wall. All masonry structures are very strong. There is also a circle of barbed wire on the wall. It is not an exaggeration to use the word "strict" to describe the defense of the arsenal.

"Company commander..." the third platoon leader who was following Duan Peng whispered.

"There seems to be something wrong at the gate of the arsenal..."

"There are only machine guns behind the bunkers, no machine gunners."

Duan Peng also noticed this, raised his eyebrows and asked back: "Is it possible that Yoshio Iwamatsu took away the garrison of the arsenal when he broke through..."

The third platoon leader frowned and said, "That's not realistic!"

"The arsenal has stockpiled large quantities of weapons and ammunition."

"Even if Yoshio Iwamatsu takes away the garrison in the arsenal, he will blow up the weapons and ammunition inside. It is impossible to give it up. Give it to the Eighth Route Army!"

Duan Peng answered angrily: "What good things do you want?"

"A whole warehouse of weapons and ammunition, you think Yoshio Iwamatsu is a fool, just give it away..."

"There must be a conspiracy here."

"Perhaps the devils have already arranged explosives in the arsenal, and they will detonate suddenly after we enter, blowing us to pieces..."

"Send a team to go in and have a look..."

"Be careful... don't touch things, don't open doors, climb over walls if you can, to prevent traps inside..."

Ten minutes passed without any movement in the arsenal.

A class that went in didn't send any news, it seemed to be missing.

After 10 minutes, there is still no movement in the arsenal...

Duan Peng is definitely a very calm person when it comes to fighting, but now he is a little anxious, and just about to send another squad in to have a look, the regiment leader Huang Yu suddenly appeared behind him.

Seeing his expression, he frowned and asked back: "What are you thinking, so anxious... Where did the usual stability go..."

"Captain..."

Duan Peng saw Huang Yu as if he saw a savior, and hurriedly asked for guidance: "The arsenal in the inner city is a bit mysterious..."

"The defense is very strong..."

"There are still heavy machine guns behind the bunker at the door, but there are no little devils inside."

"I suspect that the Japanese army arranged explosives inside, and when the troops entered the arsenal, it would suddenly detonate and blow us all to pieces..."

"A squad was sent in 10 minutes ago to check the situation..."

"As a result, they disappeared after entering the arsenal, and no news came out..."

"I'm worried they'll have an accident inside..."

"What are you thinking?" Huang Yu asked with a smile.

"Assault Company was trained by you, you don't know what combat power they have."

"Do you think the little devil has the strength to wipe out a squad of the assault company without moving?"

When it comes to the combat effectiveness of the assault company, Duan Peng becomes very confident and confident.

"Each squad of the assault company has machine gunners, assaulters, snipers..."

"Each perform their duties, disperse their actions, and cover each other..."

"If any team member is attacked, other team members will definitely shoot to cover..."

"No matter how powerful the Japanese army is, it is impossible to use cold weapons to eat up one of my squads at the same time."

"That's it..." Huang Yu replied with a smile.

"You didn't hear the gunshots, which means that there was no accident with the troops entering the arsenal..."

"As for the lack of news, it may be that the arsenal is too large and they haven't finished the investigation yet."

"It's also possible that they were frightened by your deduction. They were afraid that the devils would actually place explosives in the arsenal, which would affect the speed of investigation..."

The tense expression on Duan Peng's face immediately eased, staring at Huang Yu and continuing to ask: "Headman..."

"Then do you think it is possible for the little devil to arrange explosives in the arsenal..."

"Blow up our troops who seized the arsenal together, and die with the arsenal!"

Huang Yu shook his head and replied, "Don't worry... There must be no explosives inside... You kid is overthinking."

"If Yoshio Iwamatsu really wanted to blow up the arsenal, he would definitely do it when he retreated, and he definitely wouldn't wait until now."

"In case the explosives they arranged in the arsenal were discovered by us and did not explode, then the weapons and ammunition in the arsenal would not be cheap for us!"

Duan Peng was still a little puzzled, and continued to ask: "If Yoshio Iwamatsu hadn't placed explosives in the arsenal, wouldn't that have given the arsenal to us?"

"He is not afraid that we will take all the ammunition in the arsenal back to the base area and arm the Eighth Route Army!"

Huang Yu thought for a while, his face suddenly became very serious, and he replied seriously: "He is really not afraid..."

"I just received an information forwarded to us by the headquarters..."

"Yesterday morning, the Japanese and puppet troops sweeping Northwest Shanxi began to retreat."

"There are troops in the rear, and there are troops rushing back to help Taiyuan..."

"The fastest army is too far away to be less than [-] kilometers away, and it can be killed by a quick march of [-] hours."

"Based on this calculation, we had to retreat after occupying Taiyuan for at most sixteen or seventeen hours, and there were still about ten hours in the daytime, and Japanese planes could visit us at any time."

"The time that can really be used to transfer the loot is only six or seven hours."

"The arsenal is so big... how much do you think we can move in this short time."

"Things that can't be moved must be blown up, or left to the little devil..."

"Maybe after the Japanese army's reinforcements are in place, they can chase after our buttocks and snatch some spoils back."
