I am an artillery soldier

Chapter 444 Defense of Huangya Cave ([-])

After Liu Gen found the division headquarters again, it was already the third day after Liu Gen returned to the base area. Knowing that the division headquarters had been moved due to the mopping up of the Devils, Liu Gen could only choose to return to Huangyadong first.

After learning the specific location of the division headquarters in Huangya Cave, Liu Gen returned to the division headquarters and reported to the division commander what he had done in Yan'an.

The report with the teacher was very smooth, and the teacher didn't ask too many things. When Yan'an wanted to transfer Liu Gen, he probably knew what Liu Gen was going to do in Yan'an.Now that Liu Gen came back to report, it can only be said to be a routine job, and it is more to show that Liu Gen has returned to the base successfully and safely.

"Genzi, you did a good job in Yan'an. The bosses in Yan'an are very satisfied with you and specially rewarded you." In the room of the division headquarters, the teacher said to Liu Gen with a smile.

Liu Gen was taken aback for a moment, and looked at the teacher with some doubts. He did a good job in Yan'an, but what does the award mean?When Liu Gen left Yan'an, he didn't say anything about giving him a reward. Why did he give him a reward after he returned to the division?Although Liu Gen didn't understand why such a thing happened, he was still very happy that he was rewarded.

Receiving the award meant that his hard work in Yan'an was appreciated by the bosses, and Liu Gen became a little emotional.

"Teacher, why do you give out the awards? Shouldn't I be the ones who received the awards when I was in Yan'an?" Liu Gen asked.

The teacher laughed, looking at Liu Gen who was a little emotional, he could understand Liu Gen's state at this time, so he said with a smile: "It's not that you left too hastily, the bosses originally wanted you to stay there While staying for a month, who would have thought that you would catch them by surprise."

Immediately, Liu Gen understood that when he left Yan'an, he was really anxious.

"This is your commendation order, keep it well, don't lose it." The teacher handed a commendation order to Liu Gen, with a smile in his eyes.

Liu Gen quickly took the commendation order, took a rough look at it, and it was considered a first-class merit.After carefully stacking up the commendation order, Liu Gencai put the award order in his pocket. In order to prevent the award order from falling out of his pocket, Liu Gen deliberately buckled the button of the pocket.A commendation order is very light, but for Liu Gen, this commendation order is very heavy.

"You kid must continue to work hard in the future, and don't slack off when you get a commendation order."

"I know that you are very capable and smart. The bosses and I hope that you can make good use of this smartness and make greater contributions to our Eighth Route Army and the construction of the base area." The teacher encouraged.The teacher knew Liu Gen's character well, and knew that Liu Gen was very calm and mature, but out of his good opinion of Liu Gen, he couldn't help but remind Liu Gen.

Liu Gen nodded vigorously. He understood the meaning of the teacher. After receiving this commendation order, he would not relax in the slightest, and the pressure on his body would be even greater.This commendation order will become the driving force for Liu Gen to continue to work hard. Only by making more achievements in the future can Liu Gen be able to pat his chest and say that he can bear the fancy of his teachers and bosses, and can afford it. This commendation order.

"On the way back, you kid, didn't any accident happen? During this period of time, the devil's blockade of our base area has been continuously strengthened. Our actions before have finally attracted the devil's attention." The teacher asked.

Liu Gen's expression became serious, and he told what he had seen and heard in the devil-occupied area, but the face of the teacher did not change much.As the commander of the 129th Division, the division commander has long been aware of various situations in the devil-occupied area, but even so, he has no good way to solve it. With the state of the Eighth Route Army's troops, it is impossible to launch an attack on the devil-occupied area.

Faced with the blockade of the Japanese anti-Japanese base areas by the devils, the troops of the Eighth Route Army could only try to delay the blockade in various ways to slow down the blockade of the anti-Japanese base areas by the devils.

In any case, in a short period of time, the troops of the Eighth Route Army had no choice but to choose to move continuously in the face of the mopping up of the Japanese bases by the devil's troops, so as to avoid the sharp edge of the devil's mopping up troops.

After staying in the division headquarters for a day, Liu Gen returned to Huangya Cave, which is now the safest place in the anti-Japanese base area.For the safety of the Artillery School, the division ordered the Artillery School to stay in Huangyadong temporarily. Unless the devils found Huangyadong, there was no need for the Artillery School to be transferred.

Choosing to keep the Artillery School in Huangyadong, the division headquarters was also very helpless. The Japanese troops continued to sweep the anti-Japanese base areas, making the anti-Japanese base areas unsafe.Unless it is some remote enough place, it can avoid the mopping up of the Devil's troops, but it is naturally not suitable for the Artillery School to go to a place that is too remote.

The Artillery School is directly under the 129th Division. Naturally, its location cannot be too far from the division headquarters.After comprehensive consideration, the division could only decide to keep the Artillery School in Huangyadong.

Of course, when the division headquarters considered the location of the Artillery School, they also took into account Liu Gen's factors. Given Liu Gen's ability, it would be a bit wasteful to let Liu Gen only be in charge of the Artillery School.Now that the artillery school continues to be located in Huangyadong, Liu Gen's talent can be fully utilized, and the arsenal can also continue to develop with Liu Gen's help.

Liu Gen, who returned to Huangyadong, did not have much time to rest. As soon as he returned to Huangyadong, he was approached by Director Xu for the production of rocket launchers.

After comprehensive consideration by the division headquarter combined with the specific situation of the arsenal, the division head decided to let the arsenal manufacture two rocket launchers. These two rocket launchers were manufactured to enhance the protection of the Huangyadong arsenal.It is good to have the protection of the headquarters special task force, but compared with the devil army, the headquarters special task force is still a bit inferior, especially in terms of firepower.

It is precisely because of this consideration that the division headquarters wants to let the arsenal manufacture several rocket launchers and hand them over to the headquarters special task force to increase the firepower of the headquarters special task force.Given the special terrain of Huangya Cave, if you really want to fight the devils, the headquarters special agent group with rocket launchers will definitely burst out with enough firepower.At the same time, the special terrain of Huangya Cave can also improve the firing rate of rocket launchers.

After receiving the order from the division headquarters, the Artillery Department of the arsenal began to manufacture the rocket launcher. When Liu Gen made the first rocket launcher, Kong Jue and others from the Artillery Department followed Liu Gen all the time. They all knew the rocket launcher well. manufacturing process.But who knows, even if they knew the production process of the rocket launcher clearly, Kong Jue and others failed to manufacture a qualified rocket launcher.

It is true that there are several problems that are difficult to solve, and those problems are more critical. Even if you don't care about these problems, it will be useless to force the rocket launcher.

Now that Liu Gen has returned to Huangyadong, Director Xu hopes that Liu Gen can be responsible for the production of rocket launchers. Rockets, three rockets are enough for the defense of Huangya Cave.

Receiving such an order, Liu Gen was a little excited. He had a special feeling for the rocket launcher, and his failure in the rocket launcher made him even more interested in the rocket launcher.What's more, in Liu Gen's vision, rocket launchers can be used as anti-aircraft weapons.

Leaving Director Xu's office, Liu Gen did not go back directly to the Artillery Department, but went through all the departments of the arsenal.He chose to do this because Liu Gen wanted to see if there were any problems in various departments that he needed to solve. At the same time, he also wanted to have a clearer understanding of the current situation of the arsenal.It seems that the various departments of the arsenal will not affect the manufacture of rockets, but Liu Gen knows that the manufacture of rockets can affect every department in the arsenal.

Even if the technical requirements of the rocket launcher are not high, it still requires all departments of the arsenal to go all out. Only in this way can a sufficiently good rocket launcher be produced.

When Liu Gen returned to the Artillery Department, it was already the second day after Liu Gen returned to the Huangyadong Arsenal. As soon as he returned to the Artillery Department, Liu Gen could see that Kong Jue and others were very depressed.The failure of making the rocket launcher dealt a big blow to Kong Jue and others. They obviously followed Liu Gen and participated in every step of the rocket launcher manufacturing process, but when they were actually asked to make it by themselves, they couldn’t make it at all. Qualified rocket launcher.

"What? You were hit by a little difficulty?" Liu Gen looked at Kong Jue and the others, and asked with a faint smile.

When Kong Jue and others saw Liu Gen returning to the Artillery Department, they couldn't help standing up quickly, looking at Liu Gen with obvious admiration in their eyes.When Liu Gen made the rocket launcher together, Kong Jue and others were a little shocked, but they were not really touched.And after experiencing the failure of making rocket launchers, Kong Jue and others have obvious admiration for Liu Gen.

Some things seem very simple, but only when you actually do it yourself can you know how difficult it is.

"Cheer up! It's just a small problem in the manufacture of the rocket launcher, and you have suffered such a big blow. How can I rest assured that I will hand over the artillery department to you?" Liu Gen said again.

Kong Jue and the others lowered their heads in shame. They all knew that Liu Gen cared for and trusted them, but their performance now disappointed Liu Gen.

"Okay, comrades, we don't have much time to hang our heads down. Now comrades follow my command, we start the manufacturing of rocket launchers. You have done some work well, and we will work together to complete the rest of the work." Looking past Kong Jue and others, Liu Gen shouted loudly.

Kong Jue and others took action one after another. With Liu Gen staying in the artillery department, they all felt a lot more relaxed. Even if they encountered difficulties, they were more patient than usual.Kong Jue and others believed that with Liu Gen in charge, there would be no problem in manufacturing rocket launchers.

Facts have proved that this is indeed the case. With Liu Gen in charge, even if Liu Gen didn't have too much time to do it, the process of making rockets by Kong Jue and others was much smoother.Some of the problems that were difficult for them to solve would be easily solved in Liu Gen's hands.When Liu Gen solved the problem, he patiently explained to Kong Jue and the others. He hoped that Kong Jue and the others would become better and that they could take on the heavy responsibility of making rocket launchers.

Liu Gen attaches great importance to the rocket launcher, but it is impossible for him to devote all his time to it. He still has too many things to do.Among them, the task of developing the arsenal will consume a lot of Liu Gen's energy. By then, he will not have much time to spend on the artillery department.

With Liu Gen in charge, Kong Jue and others were getting smoother in making the rocket launcher. After successfully manufacturing a rocket launcher, they didn't have too many problems in the manufacture of the rocket launcher.There is only one problem that Kong Jue and others can't solve, that is, the propellant problem of rockets. They can't maintain a certain standard when making nitrocellulose into propellant.

In the entire arsenal, only Liu Gen can do this.Whether the propellant can be standardized is very important for rockets, but it is very difficult to do this.After all, based on the conditions of the base, no one can guarantee the quality of nitrocellulose, and the quality of nitrocellulose cannot be guaranteed, which will lead to the inability to form a unified standard in the manufacture of propellants, and it is more likely that the rocket will eject due to different burning speeds of nitrocellulose question.

But this problem, in front of Liu Gen, can be solved. With his strong physical fitness and the help of the system, Liu Gen can distinguish the quality of nitrocellulose, and can form a certain degree when making it into propellant. standard.

Fortunately, the use of nitrocellulose as a propellant is not onerous, and Liu Gen will not consume too much energy, otherwise the manufacture of rockets will definitely become a big problem.

When the time entered November, the devils raided the base areas less. This is not because the devils gave up the suppression of the anti-Japanese base areas, but after entering November, the temperature dropped, even if the devils kept raiding, They can't stand it either.Taking advantage of the reduction in the number of raids by the Devil's troops, the troops of the Eighth Route Army became more active.

Since the raids of the devils' troops have not been able to find any traces of the troops of the Eighth Route Army, this also made the devils intensify their infiltration of the anti-Japanese base areas, and sent many spies to the anti-Japanese base areas.Under the constant inquiring and searching of devils, traitors and spies, devils found the exact location of Huangya Cave.

After the devil sent a small group of troops to confirm, Yoshio Iwamatsu, the commander of the devil's first army, quietly mobilized the troops and ordered the No. One, more than 30 people, marched towards Huangyadong at the fastest speed, trying to destroy the Huangyadong arsenal in one fell swoop!
On November 41, 11, the troops quietly mobilized by the devils appeared on the outskirts of Huangyadong. After besieging all directions of Huangyadong, they took the initiative to attack Huangyadong Arsenal!
