Chapter 217 Let's see what happens next with the Independent Group
Li Yunlong watched Yu Ye's operations from the side and became more and more confused.
If Yu Ye had asked about gasoline and diesel at the beginning, Li Yunlong would have thought that Yu Ye wanted to use these things to burn the Japanese.
But later on, Yu Ye asked for tire powder, sugar, and eggs, which were completely unrelated things.
Li Yunlong racked his brains but couldn't figure out what Zhu Ye was going to do with these things.
"Old Yu, what are you doing?"
"It's okay. We're using these to feed the Japanese. Let them have a taste of our new stuff from the Liaoyuan Arsenal."
Li Yunlong was skeptical. Even though Yu Ye had said so, he still didn't believe that these things could produce any effect.
"Old Li, don't just stand there, tell Zhang Dabiao of the First Battalion to prepare for battle, and bring Captain Yang of the artillery company that you have been borrowing and haven't returned.
They need to take action!
This time our independent regiment’s artillery company will continue to play the leading role!
In addition, you can ask the soldiers in the cavalry company to prepare the vehicles. After our independent regiment produces the new weapons, we will load them onto the vehicles and set off.
Tell the brigade commander to let them hold out for another six hours. After six hours, our Liaoyuan Arsenal will provide full support."
"it is good!"
Yu Ye didn't bother to wait for Lao Li's reply, and ran towards the Liaoyuan Ice Factory. He wanted to preside over the assembly process of this new weapon.
In the assembly workshop, Yu Ye arranged everyone to follow the previous plan and quickly remove the explosives from the 107 rocket launchers and ordinary mortar shells and replace them with the new formula that Yu Ye had just prepared.
At this time, a very interesting scene formed in the assembly workshop of Liaoyuan Arsenal. The workshop, which was originally full of metal accessories and gunpowder and explosives, was now filled with several baskets of eggs and mountains of egg shells.
This made Yu Ye feel a little emotional. It had to be our Independent Regiment and our Eighth Route Army. Otherwise, who would have the ability to get so many eggs from the villagers' homes in such a short time.
There was no time to sigh for too long. The two hundred people in the entire arsenal got to work together. Even Yu Ye started beating the eggs himself.
This was a stress test for the Liaoyuan Arsenal.
Finally, two hours later, more than one hundred modified 107 rocket launchers and more than two hundred modified mortars were loaded onto trucks.
Watching the last box of shells being smoothly placed into the truck compartment, everyone at the Liaoyuan Arsenal breathed a sigh of relief. They almost died of exhaustion in the workshop.
Yu Ye also wiped his sweat. The intensity of the work was really too great and not something that ordinary people could bear.
Arranging for someone to take out a few things that looked like later-day sprayers from the Liaoyuan Arsenal, Yu Ye walked up to Li Yunlong and said, "Old Li, install this flamethrower and load 2000 kilograms of explosives from the warehouse, and we'll leave now."
"How many?"
"2000 kilograms of explosives? What? Do you think it's not enough?" Yu Ye asked, before he could even catch his breath.
"No, no, no."
Old Li waved his hands quickly.
"If it's too little, just tell me and I'll have someone go to our explosives production workshop to get more. I'll give you as much as you want."
"That should be enough, right?"
"Okay, let's leave now!"
Yu Ye waved his hand and planned to follow the convoy.
"Wait a minute!"
Li Yunlong shouted loudly.
"What's wrong?"
"Old Yu, do you want to go to Changzhi with us?" Li Yunlong suspected that he had heard it wrong.
"Are you crazy? That's a battlefield, why are you going there? What if something happens, how are you going to explain it?" Li Yunlong held Yu Ye tightly, preventing him from getting in the car.
Yu Ye said helplessly: "Old Li, do you really think I want to go? But the problem is that only I can operate this new weapon. What if you can't do it?"
"This...anyway, you can't go."
Li Yunlong said seriously.
"you......"
Yu Ye was very helpless.
"How about this, Lao Li, you go tell the brigade commander that I, Yu Ye, am absolutely far away from the battlefield, definitely more than 5 kilometers away.
Never get close to the battlefield!
Lao Li, the place we are going to this time is very close to our base. If the situation gets bad, I will run back immediately, don't worry."
Yu Ye said earnestly.
In the end, Yu Ye talked to the brigade commander on the phone for more than half an hour, and the brigade commander finally allowed Yu Ye to go for support, but he had to stay 5 kilometers away, and specifically asked Zhang Dabiao to lead the first battalion to provide security for Yu Ye.
"Let's go, Lao Li!"
"alright."
Li Yunlong had a headache.
"Old Li, don't worry about it. Eat two eggs to relieve your stress."
Yu Ye took out two boiled eggs from his pocket and placed them in Li Yunlong's hand. They were still warm.
Li Yunlong thought to himself: This guy is secretly cooking and eating in the office again.
......
The brigade commander was having a headache at this time.
After fighting the Japanese for so many years, this was the first time we encountered such a troublesome problem. A single mortar shell could do nothing to the Japanese fortifications.
Various light weapons such as guns were basically just tickling the Japanese fortifications.
When the brigade commander saw this scene, he couldn't help but doubt, even if his firepower level has been strengthened, can he really take down this Japanese stronghold?
Moreover, when the attack of the 386th Brigade was blocked, these Japanese devils unexpectedly fired two mortars, giving the brigade commander a headache.
Just when he was feeling extremely worried, the convoy of the independent regiment arrived.
Li Yunlong came out first and said, "Brigade Commander, the independent regiment's reinforcement team is here!"
The brigade commander glanced at Li Yunlong, then at Yu Ye behind him, and said, "Okay, today I want to see what tricks your independent regiment can play for me!
Minister Yu, from now on you will be with my command center and you must not leave my sight!"
"Yes."
"Yes!"
Then, under the astonished eyes of the brigade commander, the soldiers of the 1st Battalion of the Independent Regiment and the artillery company began to carry various artillery shells and gun carriages from the trucks.
Yu Ye saluted and said, "Brigade Commander, we drove for four hours and finally arrived before the time to report to you.
Next, you can go and see ours.”
Under the watchful eyes of the brigade commander, eight rocket launchers began to build artillery positions in the distance. Eight 107 rocket launchers were lined up in sequence. The artillery soldiers carried the obviously modified shells into the gun barrels and began to adjust the shooting parameters.
