Anti-Japanese War: Li Yunlong dared to attack Taiyuan

Seeing his father, Jia Ji, who was covered in oil, asked in surprise.

"Unfilial son, if I don't come, will you not go home?"

Seeing that his son was fine, Jia Xiaohou felt a little relieved. However, Jia Ji ignored his father after greeting him and came to Li Yunlong excitedly: "Commander Li, you've come at the right time. According to the reports from the front line, we have improved the 107 rocket launcher. The weight has been reduced by about three pounds, but I think the power can be increased a little."

Li Yunlong actually came here this time specifically for the 107 rocket launcher. After looking at the current production of 107 rocket launchers in the arsenal and how much reserves there were, Li Yunlong was ready to do something big.

Li Yunlong is getting married. He cannot confirm whether this news can be kept completely secret. In order to prevent the Japanese from causing trouble for him during his wedding, Li Yunlong is ready to take the initiative and cause some trouble for the Japanese.

The Japanese army is still resting near Zhongtiao Mountain. In addition to the incident in Datong, the Japanese army may not be able to mobilize a large number of troops to besiege the Taihang Mountain base for the time being.

If the Japanese got the news of Li Yunlong's wedding, the only thing that could cause trouble for Li Yunlong would be the Japanese planes at Taiyuan Airport.

Moreover, since Ping'an County was occupied by Li Yunlong, the Japanese took advantage of their absolute air superiority and bombed Ping'an County almost every day. Li Yunlong was preparing to blow up Taiyuan Airport.

This is also the reason why Li Yunlong asked Kotaro Kotera to purchase the defense map of Taiyuan Airport, to find out the locations of the Japanese airport hangars, oil depots, ammunition depots, etc., to facilitate Li Yunlong's actions.

"Report, six launchers for 107mm rockets and sixty shells have been produced!"

"Not enough. Can you produce another 100 rockets and four launchers within three days?"

Jia Ji thought for a moment and nodded. "Yes, but I also want to increase the power of the warhead. We've hit some bottlenecks right now, and I don't think the explosive power is strong enough..."

Speaking of this, Li Yunlong and Jia Ji couldn't help but look at Jia Xiaohou. He was an expert in explosives.

Chapter 230 Jia Ji: I have a brother and a mother

"You come home with me!"

"Dad, I won't go back!"

"Rebellious son, what's so good about this place? Don't you know they're not good people? Don't you know what the higher-ups think of them? If you follow them, you'll be finished sooner or later, and our family will be finished sooner or later!"

Hearing this, Jia Ji immediately said, "Dad, how could I not know whether they are good people or not? I have been here for three months. In these three months, they captured Ping'an County, wiped out the Japanese 13th Regiment, captured Datong, wiped out the Japanese Qiantian Regiment, and rescued tens of thousands of miners. How could I not know whether they are good people or not? Shancheng's attitude towards them is not important to me!"

"I only believe what I saw with my own eyes. I saw that they were truly fighting the Japanese invaders and were truly doing this for our country. Only they could possibly save our country!"

"You've been busy for those people in Shancheng for most of your life, and what's the result? The weapons you built and the bombs you researched all ended up hitting our own people. Dad, I don't want to lecture you on this. Do you know anything about the Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain?"

"Two hundred thousand men were beaten to the ground by a hundred thousand devils, leaving them in disarray. Forty thousand men were killed, and another forty thousand were captured. Do you know how many devils died? A few hundred, for a total of only three thousand casualties. Do you know what the propaganda in Shancheng was? They said they killed a devil regiment commander and captured a lieutenant commander's sword. Do you know where this sword came from?"

"This knife was sold by General Li Yunlong to the commander of the 165th Division! Those people in Shancheng, can you expect them to drive the Japanese away? Do you expect them to make our country prosperous and strong? Do you expect them to stop being invaded?"

"Dad, if you insist I go back, I won't. I won't follow the ancients and cut out my bones to return to my father, dying to prove my will. I still have to keep this life to continue making weapons. If you blame me, I will come home and apologize to you one day when we drive away the Japanese. But now, I won't leave!"

Jia Xiaohou looked at his son in front of him, pointed at Jia Ji and said, "Okay, okay, okay, you've grown strong now. If you don't leave, I'll leave! I'll just pretend I don't have a son like you!"

Jia Xiaohou has a long history in Shancheng. He joined Shancheng when he was studying abroad in Guizi, so he couldn't listen to what Jia Ji said.

Seeing his father about to leave, Jia Ji grabbed him and said, "Dad, it's too late. You can't leave now even if you want to!"

"Can't leave? Is this a bandit den? Why won't they let me leave after I'm here?"

Jia Ji immediately shook his head and said, "That's not the case, but this is the arsenal, the most confidential place in our Eighth Route Army. According to the rules, you can only enter but not leave."

"What kind of bullshit rule is this!"

Jia Ji pointed to an area behind Jia Xiaohou and said, "That's where they're researching bazookas. They can knock out the Japanese artillery towers with a single shot. Over there, they're researching rockets. The range of the rockets is about eight kilometers, they're extremely powerful, and they're very easy to launch and carry. The Japanese don't have these things. If they were stolen, the consequences would be disastrous. Therefore, the level of confidentiality is very high. With a higher level, there are naturally more rules."

Jia Xiaohou stood there in a daze, looking at his son. It was Jia Ji who brought him here on his own initiative, on the pretext of wanting to visit his work environment. Now thinking about it, he seemed to have been tricked by his son.

"They won't let you go?"

After Jia Xiaohou calmed down, he looked at his son and said that if his son was coerced, he would take his son out even if it cost him his life.

"That's not the case. I'm the person in charge of this project. Dad, you just stay here. It's hard to get out here!"

After hearing this, Jia Xiaohou immediately pointed at Jia Ji and said, "You were brainwashed by them. You said you volunteered, but now you can't leave!"

Jia Ji was surprised and said, "Who said I can't go out? I can go out. As long as there is something important to report, it's fine. For example, Xiao Wang's father passed away in the arsenal a few days ago..."

"Rebel!"

Jia Xiaohou kicked his son directly. His son was really filial. He was waiting for him to ask for leave to go out.

"Dad, don't be angry. I'm obsessed with increasing the power of my weapons. I'm not thinking straight. Dad, our 107mm rockets have a large ammunition load, but the explosive power is not as strong as that of a 105mm heavy artillery. Can you see what's going on?"

"Humph!"

Although Jia Xiaohou snorted coldly and was somewhat reluctant, he still looked at the notebook handed to him by his son and glanced at it with his peripheral vision. When he saw the densely packed design drawings inside, he immediately turned his head with his eyes widened.

"Did you design these?" Jia Xiaohou asked excitedly, feeling that his son had made great progress.

"No, many of them were designed by our commander, and some were the result of collective brainstorming by a group of us. However, many designs can only remain on the drawing board because some steel materials do not meet the standards. For example, this RPK machine gun exploded after firing less than 200 rounds because the steel used to make the barrel was not up to standard."

"And this, the anti-aircraft gun designed by our commander is a barrage-type anti-aircraft gun, but it also has steel issues..."

Jia Ji became more and more excited as he spoke, and soon realized that it seemed that his father was not only an expert in explosives, but also in metallurgy. He learned weapon design from his father, and his eldest brother studied metallurgy. It seemed that he could send a telegram to trick his eldest brother, or rather, ask him to come and see him. After all, the festival was only half a year away, and it would be nice for the family to be reunited.

No, I can't forget my mother. My mother also went to school and can teach children or workers to read...

Jia Xiaohou glanced at the designs and said, "Hmph, they're definitely not up to standard. Not to mention the raw materials, even the equipment isn't up to standard. As for the 107mm rocket launcher's insufficient explosive power, take me to see it..."

After seeing his father take the bait, Jia Ji's eyes lit up.

Now that the problem with my father has been solved, the only problem left is my eldest brother. Unfortunately, my father only had two sons, so they only studied metallurgy and explosives. If he had learned more and had more children, these problems seemed to be solved.

"..."

In Taiyuan City.

Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko has received the news that Kuroda Shigenori has committed suicide to thank God for the locusts.

Kuroda Shigenori's suicide was a good thing for many people, whether it was the Mengjiang Garrison Army or Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko. According to the Japanese rules, all crimes would not be pursued after suicide.

Then the responsibility for the loss of Datong, the responsibility for the mine bombing, etc. can all be thrown on Kuroda Shigenori.

"Have you found out?"

Although the explanation given on the surface was that the Kuomintang prisoners of war captured Datong and destroyed the mines in Datong, in fact the Japanese knew what was going on. They did not pursue joint liability, but the subsequent matters had to be dealt with.

For example, where did all the supplies in Datong go, as well as the many miners, the Kuomintang prisoners of war, etc., all need to be figured out.

Otherwise, so many people around Datong would be a hidden danger to Datong and the surrounding cities.

"Ha Yi, we've found out. According to the information our internal intelligence personnel obtained from Shancheng, Datong was captured by Li Yunlong's Jin-Cha-Ji Independent Column!"

"Li Yunlong?"

"Ha Yi, Li Yunlong!"

"Li Yunlong, it's that Li Yunlong again! Baka!"

When Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko heard the name Li Yunlong, he couldn't help but become furious.

This Li Yunlong ruined his own good deeds at the critical moment.

The Battle of Zhongtiao Mountain should be his highlight moment, shutting up those who questioned him and believed that the credit for taking Nanjing should go to Matsui Ishigeng rather than himself.

But at his most glorious moment, it was Li Yunlong who dealt him a heavy blow, causing him to fail and almost become a laughing stock. If the results of the battle in Zhongtiao Mountain had not been so great that they could be covered up, the loss of Datong would not have been so easily glossed over.

"idiot!"

Chapter 231 Li Yunlong Angries the Japanese Prince

Now Prince Asaka Hisahiko only wants to capture Li Yunlong, then skin him alive and pull out his tendons, so that he can relieve the hatred in his heart. No, only by cutting Li Yunlong into pieces can he calm his anger.

"Is Li Yunlong's army still in Datong?"

Datong was lost for only about four days, and a large amount of supplies were lost at the same time. Even if Li Yunlong's army had 100,000 people, it would be impossible to transfer such a large amount of supplies.

Upon hearing this, the confidential secretary immediately lowered his head and said, "Your Highness, Li Yunlong's exact location is still unknown."

"What? He took so much supplies, tens of thousands of miners, and tens of thousands of Chinese prisoners. He couldn't move fast at all. And you couldn't even find Li Yunlong's location. Could they possibly fly?"

"These supplies include various machine tools from Datong. These supplies cannot be transported along the mountain roads. They can only..."

Listening to Prince Hisahiko Asaka's words, the confidential secretary lowered his head and said, "These devices may have been transported back to the Taihang Mountain base by Li Yunlong."

"Nani?"

The devil prince's eyes widened, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. "Baga, are you stupid? How many people did Li Yunlong have to transport so much equipment from Datong to Taihang Mountain in just four days? Datong is 300 kilometers away from his base. Tell me how he did it!"

The confidential secretary immediately bowed in panic and said, "Your Highness, according to the intelligence department's deduction, it might be a train!"

"train?"

When Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko heard this, his eyes widened and his mouth was so big that a fist could be stuffed in it. He didn't react for a long time, and finally said the word "train" with doubt.

"The clothing was transported by train. During the period when Datong was lost, the railway dispatch department received a total of four transport applications from Datong. All four trains were applying to transport coal from Datong to Taiyuan and then to Sijiucheng. Three of the trains entered the freight train station in Sijiucheng. Their dispatch orders stated that they were transporting coal, but after arriving in Sijiucheng, they did not pick up any cargo. One train is also missing."

Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko's brain was a little insufficient, and then he asked with a trembling voice: "You mean, Li Yunlong used the imperial train to transport batches of supplies looted from Datong to the Eighth Route Army base right under our noses!"

"Hayi!"

Although the confidential secretary was reluctant to admit it, he still gritted his teeth and bowed.

"Li! Yun! Long!"

Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko only felt his blood rushing up and his vision became a little blurry. The confidential secretary immediately grabbed Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko and put him on the chair.

It took the devil prince a while to recover and he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"Your Highness, please take care of yourself. I will report back tomorrow."

Hearing this, Prince Higashikuni Naruhiko shook his head and said, "No, you continue to report."

"Hayi! Your Highness, your body."

"I said it's okay, continue reporting!"

At this time, Prince Hisahiko Asaka's eyes had turned red, like a bloodthirsty wolf, staring at the confidential secretary in front of him.

The confidential secretary was a little frightened by the stare, and continued through gritted teeth: "Another batch of supplies will be transported by car."

"car?"
