Chapter 462 Black Tiger Village
Xiao Liangcai gritted his teeth and retorted in a low voice.
"Do you think I don't want to get some 105mm cannons? But those are 105mm howitzers. Let alone 105mm howitzers, even if they are 75mm field guns, can you understand what they are?"
“If you don’t understand, you can learn!”
"Learn? What can you learn? Doesn't learning require shells? Do you really think that other people's shells fell from the sky? Will they give them to you for free?!"
Xiao Liangcai rolled his eyes in annoyance and then sighed.
"In previous wars, we always thought that as long as we were not afraid of death and fought hard, we could win. But slowly, we found that fighting is really a technical job. Not only does shooting require skills, but driving a car, driving a tank, and firing a cannon are also skills, not to mention tactics! Our team is seriously lacking in these skills!"
"You're right. We need to study hard, but we can't study blindly. We only have more than 300 people now. There are old and young soldiers in the team, and there are even female soldiers. What we need to learn now is the most basic infantry combat skills!"
"Infantry! How can infantry be as powerful as artillery? The reason why the Japs are so powerful is because they have too many artillery pieces. As long as the long-range artillery opens fire, we will suffer many casualties!"
Dou Jiande retorted unconvincedly.
"Artillery is powerful, but the Japanese have enough ammunition supplies, and they have endless ammunition. What about us? Where do our shells come from? Once the shells are used up, don't we have to use guns and bayonets? The New Sixth Army defended the county town without artillery, but they were still able to hold the county town. Isn't this something we should learn from?"
"..."
Xiao Liangcai's words left Dou Jiande speechless, but he still turned around and left unconvinced.
After Yuan Shuai led his men into the city, he explained everything to Tan Guohao and took his men to take a bath and sleep.
Tan Guohao immediately arranged for his subordinates to take Hu Zi to collect weapons and ammunition.
What Hu Zi didn't expect was that Tan Guohao's men directly gave him three Maxim heavy machine guns, three Pheasant Necks, twenty Czech machine guns, thirty Type 99 rifles, five mortars, and a lot of rifles, bullets, grenades and shells...
Looking at these weapons and ammunition, Hu Zi couldn't believe his eyes.
"This, so much?!"
"If you think it's too much, don't take it!"
The Kuomintang soldiers grumbled unhappily.
"Yuan Shuai is really generous. You didn't even fire a shot, but he gave us so many weapons and ammunition! He even sent us five mortars!"
"It was given by Yuan Shuai!"
Hu Zi then understood that this was Yuan Shuai's intention, and he was very grateful.
"And our brigade commander, if he doesn't agree, we can't send it!"
"Thank you, General Yuan and your brigade commander. Thank you very much!"
Hu Zi was extremely happy and quickly took people to move weapons and ammunition.
Not far away, Du San looked at their leaving backs and complained unhappily.
"Commander, this is too much! These are all spoils of war that our brothers fought so hard to win!"
Brigade Commander Tan Guohao shouted angrily.
"Are we the only ones fighting hard? Isn't the Iron Army's New 24st Regiment fighting hard? Isn't the Black Wolf Army fighting hard? If it weren't for General Yuan, I would have been able to get back 75 tanks, 12 105mm field guns, mm howitzers, and so many ammunition and food supplies?"
"Just a few light and heavy machine guns and mortars, and I'm so distressed about you, what a shame!?"
Tan Guohao took out a cigarette and Du San quickly lit it for him.
Tan Guohao exhaled a long puff of smoke and continued.
"Don't underestimate the Black Tiger Village. They have a large population and are located in a remote area. They also have a lot of food. The Japanese might try to take their food. Now that we have so many light and heavy weapons, they can help them guard the village. If their village is taken by the Japanese, they will be able to collect a large amount of food, which is definitely not a good thing for us!"
"Besides, the Black Tiger Camp is on our flank. We have given them so much ammunition. If we are attacked by the devils again, they will definitely not sit idly by! This is definitely a good thing for us!"
"The brigade commander is wise!"
Du San immediately gave a thumbs up and praised.
Tan Guohao sighed to the sky.
"We are all Hunanese, we are all Chinese, we should help each other and work together to kill the devils!"...
Hu Zi brought his men back to the Black Tiger Village.
When the people in the village saw that they brought back so many weapons and ammunition, they were extremely happy.
Especially the old village chief, his face was full of shame.
Because when the Japanese attacked Pingpan City before, he did not send troops to help.
It’s not that he doesn’t want to send troops out, but their weapons and equipment are too poor.
Moreover, it is more than 50 kilometers away from Pingpan City, which is too far.
Moreover, the Japanese often bombed with planes and artillery, so the old village chief did not send out troops in order to protect the village.
This time, Jiudaowan was only more than 20 kilometers away from them.
And when they learned that the national army had defended the county town, they quickly sent people to help.
Because once the Japanese crossed Jiudaowan, they would threaten their stronghold.
Therefore, he had to send troops out to cooperate with the National Army to kill the Japanese.
But unexpectedly, Hu Zi and his men brought back so many weapons and equipment.
After listening to Hu Zi's narration, the old village chief was so excited that his eyes were filled with tears.
"I didn't expect it, I really didn't expect it, it turns out that the marshal of the Black Wolf Army is here!"
"I told you so. How could the National Army defeat the Yamazaki Brigade and the Tianya Detachment with just that few people? It turns out that the marshal of the Black Wolf Army has arrived! Awesome! The Black Wolf Army is really amazing!"
"Dad, General Yuan has been so righteous to us, we should also show some appreciation! The county town has been beaten to such a state, it must be short of food, and we still have some food in our village, why not send some to them. In addition, the Japs have already reached Jiudaowan, and they will definitely attack our village in the future. We need to form an alliance with them, so that if the Japs attack us, we can get reinforcements to help us!"
Village chief Zhao Dalei immediately made a suggestion.
The old village chief nodded.
"Well, you are right. Yuan Shuai is so righteous, indeed..."
"Grandpa, Grandpa, I heard that General Yuan of the Black Wolf Army has come to our county. Is that true?!"
At this time, a girl of about seventeen or eighteen years old rushed in quickly. Before she arrived, she was shouting at the top of her lungs.
"Ying'er, stop making trouble, we are in a meeting!"
Father Zhao Dalei quickly glanced at her.
"Dad, I am also from the village. Why can't I attend a meeting with you when you have one?"
"Grandpa has already said that Ying'er has grown up. You said that, didn't you?"
Zhao Ying'er immediately ran to her grandfather and helped him massage his back.
"You girl!"
Her father couldn't do anything about her.
Grandpa patted Ying'er's hands happily and laughed.
"You little girl, Yuan Shuai said that his identity cannot be made public. Once the Japanese know that he has come to our county, they will definitely send a large force to encircle and suppress him. The county will be in greater danger, and we will also be in greater danger here!"
"Ying'er knows. Ying'er has arranged for someone to post a notice. Any military information must be kept secret. Leakers will be punished according to the mountain rules! Therefore, Ying'er will go down the mountain this time and form an alliance with General Yuan to protect our Black Tiger Village!"
