Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 100 Preparation
After understanding the battle damage, Zhang Dabiao immediately arranged the task.

"The Second Company sent the wounded and captured puppet troops back to the regiment headquarters. We can't handle so many prisoners. Remember to bring more ammunition and food when you come back."

"Okay, then I'll leave first." The second company commander happily accepted the order without any objection. There are more than 150 prisoners, and the current first battalion really does not have the ability or energy to deal with them.

The county government in Yushe has not yet moved back, and its intelligence capabilities are insufficient, as is the lack of professional manpower.Just to identify these puppet soldiers requires great efforts to contact the villages, not to mention organizing public trials and strengthening ideological education for some puppet soldiers who were not guilty enough to die.

Even considering food alone, there is nothing a battalion can do.The main purpose of their visit this time was to train troops and provide force support for the county government's return.We moved many boxes of ammunition, but not much food. We still had to rely on the local food stamp system.

But now, the First Battalion doesn't have that much energy to spend on this group of prisoners.

"Although this battle was won, the goal of rescuing the people has not yet been achieved. We only rescued 50 people this time, but the intelligence we collected showed that at least 200 people were arrested, which means there are more than 100 people Wait for our rescue in Yushe City." Zhang Dabiao looked at the map and frowned: "So next, the first battalion will immediately move to the vicinity of Yushe City and be ready to fight at any time."

This battle was fought very happily, not only wiping out a small team of Japanese soldiers, but also capturing puppet soldier No. 150. For the Eighth Route Army who were engaged in guerrilla warfare, it was a great victory.

But a problem has arisen. Originally, the Yushe Japs had not many troops, but now there are probably only two squads of a little more Japs left, plus a garrison of dozens of people.If you were a Japs from Yushe, would you still dare to show your face?

That must be a choice to stick to it and stop wandering around.Maybe we'll have to wait until the next time we sweep this area to see any movement.

But once the Japanese retreated, it would be difficult to save the people in the city.The only company that can maneuver now is Yilian. You can't rely on these few people to try to take down Yushe County, right?

That's too disrespectful of the Japanese.

"The best opportunity is now. We have just wiped out the Japs who left the city, and the Japs in the city haven't received news yet. Let's take the opportunity to kill him." The first company commander immediately put forward his own suggestion.

"I think so too, but how to do it specifically has not been decided yet. We are still not familiar enough with the situation in Yushe City to make a reliable plan." Zhang Dabiao sighed: "Ignore this, let's go first Near Yushe, we have to get in touch with the comrades of the Second Company first."

The half platoon of soldiers from the Second Company who sneaked into the city will be an important part in determining the next action.If they could get enough intelligence, it wouldn't be impossible to seize the opportunity to give the Japanese a little surprise.

……

Yushe County.

A man who looked like a farmer put the last leaflet in his hand on the wall, and then came to the back door of a shop as if nothing had happened. After seeing that no one was following or watching outside, he immediately pushed the door open and entered the backyard.

"Platoon leader, the leaflets have been posted."

"it is good."

The platoon leader is a tall man.He is now dressed as a wealthy businessman, and his rifle is fastened to his waist with an iron clip, making it difficult to spot him.There were several other soldiers in the backyard, but they didn't carry guns.

The shell gun can be hidden by putting down the gun case and attaching it to the waist, but forget about the [-]-style. The Japanese are lazy and can be bribed, but they are not blind.

After a while, two more people opened the back door and walked in.One person walked to the courtyard wall and took a ladle of water from the vat to quench his thirst. The other person walked straight over and reported the situation.

"Platoon leader, something is wrong. The number of teams patrolling today is not the same as yesterday. Moreover, the patrol team of the puppet army did not show up at all. The guard team was also very quiet. The only ones on duty were the two sentries at the main entrance. Old Liu I just climbed in from the wall and looked around, but everything was empty." The platoon leader was stunned, and after a while he said, "Old Liu, I checked in and looked around?"

Another person finished drinking the water and came over: "Yes, I went in and took a look. The military camp and the playground are empty. There are two rows of houses in the back that are locked and guarded."

The platoon leader nodded: "In other words, the group of Japanese soldiers who went out in the morning were not escorting ordinary people at all, but a group of puppet soldiers? The real ordinary people should still be detained in the guard team?"

After hearing the important information, a circle of soldiers gathered around.Some people spoke directly: "Are the puppet soldiers leaving the city and not ordinary people? Will the battalion commander suffer a loss?"

"No, don't worry." The platoon leader smiled: "It's not like our team has never encountered this kind of thing before. Besides, our battalion commander is not stupid, so he can definitely see it."

"We can't control what happens to the battalion commander. We can only wait for the result. The key now is us." The platoon leader paused: "Now that we know that the people are still in the city and the Japanese troops are empty, can we What to do?"

The eyes of the surrounding soldiers suddenly lit up.

Needless to say about the enthusiasm of the Eighth Route Army soldiers.

"I plan to take action tonight and go to the police station to have some fun with the puppet troops. But please note that our main purpose is to rescue the people trapped inside. So before taking action, we must be prepared."

"Old Liu, you are familiar with the garrison of the puppet army. Please go there again and record their defense arrangements."

"it is good."

"Old Chen, take someone to the middle school to confirm the layout of the Japanese barracks and think of a way to see if you can delay the Japanese support."

"Lao Yang, please take someone to find out if there is any other way out of the city. The dog hole at the base of the city wall will do. We only have a few people. It is impossible for us to run to seize the city gate after rescuing the people. We can only find other ways. ”

"Xiao Xu, you go out of the city and see if you can contact the battalion commander and the others. If you can, it's best to ask the battalion commander and the others to pick them up. If you can't get in touch, forget it."

"Finally, check out our existing firepower."

The platoon leader and three squad leaders laid out all the firearms and ammunition they carried - a total of four twenty-gun guns, eight magazines, and 160 rounds of ammunition.

"This firepower..."

In the past, the average person had eight rounds of ammunition and less than one gun, which was considered normal.It can take half a day and a day of blocking in the field.

Even if a certain country deployed an army of 36 people a few decades later, the logistics would only be less than ten rounds of ammunition per person.This shows the gold content of Eight Road.

However, in the current new group, this firepower is really inferior.

"I've been fighting this battle for a long time, and it's a bit uncomfortable to suddenly go back to the old way of fighting." The platoon leader laughed.
