After occupying the arsenal in the afternoon.

Wei Dayong then led the special operations battalion to separate from Zhang Dabiao's first battalion.

Annihilate all the Japanese and puppet troops in the north of the city.

By night, all the Japanese and puppet troops in the outer city had retreated into the inner city.

Wei Dayong was worried about the arsenal and brought his troops over without even bothering to eat. He happened to see this scene.

The 358th Regiment is here to grab the fruits of victory, and Wei Dayong will naturally not let them succeed.

If the 358th regiment was the first to attack the city and occupy the arsenal, then Wei Dayong would naturally have nothing to say.

But if you want to seize the things I captured, don't blame me for being rude!

When Fang Ligong and Qian Bojun saw that Wei Dayong was coming, their expressions suddenly turned ugly.

When Luo Dazhu saw Wei Dayong, he quickly ran to him and saluted: "Report to the Chief of Staff, they want to seize the arsenal we captured and beat people!"

Wei Dayong's face darkened. He thought Qian Bojun was preparing to fight a soldier, but he didn't expect that Qian Bojun had already taken action.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and a murderous aura suddenly disappeared, and he asked: "Who hit someone, point it out to me!"

Luo Dazhu immediately pointed at Qian Bojun: "That's him!"

Wei Dayong walked up to Qian Bojun and asked: "You were the one who beat the soldiers of our independent regiment, right?"

Qian Bojun and Wei Dayong naturally knew him. He had met him when he passed by the 358th Regiment on a mission in Hebei Province last year.

This grandson was a rebel in the original drama, and Wei Dayong didn't have a good impression of him.

Looking at the oppressive Wei Dayong in front of him, Qian Bojun showed some timidity and said: "Wei Dayong, the soldiers of your independent regiment are always swearing when they open their mouths. I will discipline them for your regiment leader..."

Before Qian Bojun could finish speaking, Wei Dayong's palm as big as a leaf fan had already called out to him.

Snapped--

There was a crisp sound, and the slap was so powerful that Qian Bojun's military cap flew off.

Qian Bojun was slapped to the ground like a wooden stake, and fell flat on his face.

Wei Dayong: "It's not your turn to discipline the soldiers of our independent regiment!"

"You dare to hit me?" Qian Bojun's face was ferocious. He was the battalion commander of the 358th Regiment, but he never expected that Wei Dayong would dare to hit him.

He stood up and took out his shell gun and pointed it at Wei Dayong. However, as soon as the gun was pulled out, it was blocked by more than a dozen long and short guns.

Seeing this, the soldiers of the Jinsui Army changed their expressions and turned their guns one after another. However, the soldiers from the surrounding special operations battalion took a step forward with their guns raised, so that they did not dare to move rashly.

"Who do you think you are?" Wei Dayong said expressionlessly, "I'm going to beat you."

"You..." A trace of blood flowed from the corner of Qian Bojun's mouth, and his eyes were fixed on Wei Dayong.

Fang Ligong's face was a little gloomy and he said to Qian Bojun: "Captain Qian, put down the gun."

Fang Ligong knew very well that he had the advantage before because he had more people on his side.

But now that the other side has more people, if we use swords or guns again, our own side will suffer a loss.

It's a trivial matter to do something, but once the gun goes off, no one can afford to be charged with undermining the national unity of the war of resistance.

Qian Bojun paused, put the rifle back into its holster, and ordered at the same time: "Put the gun away!"

The soldiers of the Jinsui Army were ordered to put away their guns. Wei Dayong waved his hand, and the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army also put away their guns.

"Chief of Staff Wei," Fang Ligong said, "We are here with orders to take over the property of our Jinsui Army. Please make it convenient for us."

Before this, Fang Ligong thought Wei Dayong was the battalion commander, but he heard the Eighth Route Army soldiers call him chief of staff.

Fang Ligong was also a little surprised, and couldn't help but secretly thought that Wei Dayong had been promoted quickly enough.

"The property of the Jinsui Army?" Wei Dayong pretended to be surprised, turned around and asked, "Duan Peng, is there any property of the Jinsui Army here?"

Duan Peng looked determined and said loudly: "I've never heard of it!"

"Chief of Staff Fang, it seems you made a mistake." Wei Dayong then turned back to look at Fang Ligong and said, "There is no property of your Jinsui Army here."

Fang Ligong couldn't help but his cheek twitched slightly and said: "Chief of Staff Wei, the Taiyuan Arsenal behind you was built by Commander Yan of our Shanxi-Sui Army after years of hard work. It naturally belongs to the property of our Jin-Sui Army."

"Since it is the property of your Jinsui Army." Wei Dayong said, "Chief of Staff Fang, then why don't your Jinsui Army ask the Japanese army for it?"

Fang Ligong: "This..."

Wei Dayong snorted coldly and said in a cold and cold tone: "I don't care whose property this arsenal was before. I only know that we took it from the devils. It belongs to our Eighth Route Army. If anyone dares to rob it, I will take it."

Kill him, Chief of Staff Fang, if you don’t believe it, you can try it!”

You must be strong at this time, otherwise you will be sorry for those battalions of soldiers who died fighting to occupy this arsenal.

Hearing the Chief of Staff's encouraging words, the soldiers of the First Battalion and the Special Operations Battalion straightened their chests and stared intently at the group of Jinsui Army in front of them.

As long as the chief of staff gives an order, no one in this group of Jinsui troops will be able to return alive.

Fang Ligong's expression suddenly froze.

Today he has finally seen what it means for a scholar to meet a soldier. He cannot explain it rationally.

What's more, he is not reasonable.

He knew very well that the Eighth Route Army really dared to take action. A few years ago, Zhu Huaibing's troops of the National Army often had frictions with the Eighth Route Army, and the Eighth Route Army lost a division to them in reverse.

The Wei Dayong in front of him was even more daring and reckless, which was evident from the moment he hit Qian Bojun.

It was impossible to take over the arsenal today. Fang Ligong gave Wei Dayong a meaningful look.

Then he snorted coldly and said in a reluctant tone: "Let's go."

Then he turned around and left. Qian Bojun stared at Wei Dayong with a cold look, his expression seemed to tell me to wait, and then followed Fang Ligong.

The soldiers of the Jinsui Army behind him immediately followed.

Wei Dayong didn't care at all, let alone Qian Bojun, even if Chu Yunfei dared to mess with me, I would still mess with him.

Ordering the Langya Squadron and the Special Forces Battalion to stay here to ensure everything was safe, Wei Dayong took Jiang Maocai, Duan Peng, and several team members and rode out of the city.

Ten minutes later, Wei Dayong and his party arrived at the armored train and the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Walking into the command vehicle, I saw the brigade commander, Li Yunlong, Ding Wei and Cheng Shifa were all there.

The brigade commander asked: "You came just in time, how is the situation in the north of the city?"

Wei Dayong replied: "Report to the brigade commander that the enemies in the north of the city and on the city wall have been completely wiped out by the special operations battalion and the first battalion, but..."

Li Yunlong's expression changed and he asked hurriedly: "But what?"

Immediately, Wei Dayong told everyone about the Jinsui Army's preparations to rob the arsenal.

"Damn it!" Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Chu Yunfei is so dishonest that he actually did this to us!"

Cheng Shifa said: "Fortunately, you arrived in time with your people, otherwise the arsenal would have been robbed by the 358th Regiment, and things would have been difficult!"

"It seems we are not the only ones who are thinking about the Taiyuan Arsenal." Ding Wei also said, "We have to find a way to transport the equipment from the Arsenal as soon as possible."

The brigade commander asked Wei Dayong: "How much equipment does the arsenal have now?"

Wei Dayong said: "There are no specific statistics yet, but the total number of machine tools and equipment in several factories is no less than 1,000, and the warehouse is also filled with raw materials for manufacturing guns and weapons."

Before the July 7th Incident, the Taiyuan Arsenal had more than 7,000 employees, and its scale was comparable to the largest Hanyang Arsenal and Shenyang Arsenal in the country.

In 1930, the monthly output reached: 35 light and heavy artillery pieces, 100 mortars, 3,000 rifles, 150 machine guns, 900 submachine guns, 15,000 artillery shells, 9,000 mortar shells, and 4.2 million bullets.

Yan Laoxi relied on these weapons and equipment to grow the Jin army to 300,000 troops, and he had the spare capacity to sell weapons at high prices to warlords from other provinces such as Li Zongren, Ma Hongkui, and Ma Bufang.

With the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War and the Japanese occupation of Taiyuan, Yan Laoxi only moved away more than 1,000 small machine tools and more than 200 power motors.

Most of the equipment and finished weapons and ammunition fell into the hands of the Japanese army. The Japanese army used these weapons and ammunition to equip the puppet troops, and sent more than 4,000 of the better equipment in the arsenal to Manchuria and Japan to use these equipment to produce weapons and ammunition.

Fighting feeds fighting.

Although there is not much equipment left in Taiyuan City, the scale is still not comparable to the existing arsenal of the Eighth Route Army.

Especially the equipment and machine tools for producing bullets are not available at the Huangyadong Arsenal, the largest of the Eighth Route Army.

The brigade commander was surprised and happy, so many?

Then we encountered another difficulty. With so much stuff, at least millions of kilograms, it might not be that easy to transport it away.

A piece of equipment weighs thousands of kilograms and is difficult to move. Even dismantling and transporting it takes a lot of time.

The Japanese reinforcements were on their way, leaving little time for the Eighth Route Army.

Wei Dayong saw what the brigade commander was thinking and said: "Brigade commander, we need to transport these equipment and raw materials back to the base area. The fastest way now is to transport them by train."

"By train?" said the brigade commander. "We pass through enemy-occupied areas along the way. I'm afraid it's not that easy to pass through."

"It's simple." Wei Dayong said, "There are at most enemy strongholds and train stations along the way. We now have this armored train and can fight all the way back."

Using the cannons and howitzers on the 94 armored train to attack strongholds and train stations is a dimensionality reduction strike.

No matter how strong your turrets and bunkers are, if a cannonball passes over them, they will fall apart in an instant.

In order to implement the prison plan, the Japanese army vigorously built railways. The Taiyuan railway went directly to southeastern Shanxi, which now provided convenience for the Eighth Route Army.

Brigadier: "How many trains do we have now?"

Li Yunlong said: "We brought 4 trains from Yangquan, 2 trains from Taiyuan Railway Station, and the chief of staff also brought 2 trains. There are 8 trains in total."

"Eight trains..." the brigade commander thought for a moment and said immediately, "Without any further delay, Li Yunlong, this task will be handed over to your independent regiment. You must transport all the equipment and raw materials before the Japanese reinforcements arrive!
