Chapter 620: Immediately issue a declaration of war to the Japanese, forcing them to take the initia
Li Yunlong's eyes rolled and he interrupted, "I have an idea in mind. We can challenge the Japanese to a duel in Fu'an County. I guess the Japanese will definitely not agree. Then we can make a fuss about it and deliberately reveal a flaw to lure the Japanese into the trap!"
Lin Zhenhua felt that Li Yunlong was just daydreaming. The Japanese were not fools and it was impossible for them to be fooled so easily. However, there was no harm in giving it a try. It was a good opportunity to test the reaction of the Japanese. He had also made up his mind that even if it was Fu'an County, he would find a way to take it down no matter how difficult it was.
"Lao Kong, just follow what Lao Li said and issue a declaration of war to the Japanese first. No matter whether it is useful or not, it will not cause any harm to us. Fu'an County must be taken. No matter what the cost, we must take down this strategic point."
"As for Old Ding, don't just sit there. Move to the vicinity of Pingding County immediately and mobilize the garrison at Niangzi Pass. If there's a chance, go and attack the Pingding Gold Mine. If not, forget it. We came out with such a big fanfare this time, but in the end we didn't get much spoils. It's really a bit disappointing."
"In order to solve the problem of insufficient raw materials for the arsenal, we must now find a way to raise some money and increase the transaction volume with Chen Minggeng to make up for our lack of raw materials. Our arsenal will soon start the third phase of the large-scale expansion plan. If we cannot solve the supply problem of copper and rubber in a short period of time, it will have a huge impact on our subsequent production of weapons and ammunition."
"Drugs are indeed very popular in the international market, but they still need to be transferred to our hands, which is far less shocking than real money. In the past, Chen Minggeng and Tom provided us with a large amount of canned beef and compressed biscuits in order to make more money from us. But after seeing the real money, they directly found ways to get us a shipload of canned luncheon meat, and the price was only 1/4 of the previous price. It can be seen that real money is sometimes much more useful than drugs."
"Not to mention that due to the big problem of our Chinese medicinal materials supply, the second phase of the expansion of the pharmaceutical factory has not been put into production. If we don't solve the problem of Chinese medicinal materials supply, we can only sell sulfa and penicillin to the outside world. This time we earn less money and get less supplies. This is the fundamental reason why I am eager to launch a counterattack. If we don't solve the problem, the development of our base will be greatly affected."
"In the next battle, don't worry about the consumption of ammunition. We must defeat the Japanese in the shortest possible time. As long as we can defend these three counties, our external material channels will be fully opened. Not to mention that there are many mineral deposits in the areas where these three counties belong, which can greatly solve our shortage of raw materials."
"The coal mines in our base are a good example. The output is relatively small and the difficulty of development is relatively large. It is far inferior to those open-pit coal mines, which seriously affects our synthetic gasoline production. Since the large-scale deployment of mechanized troops, our demand for fuel is endless. With our current fuel production capacity, a fuel crisis will occur in three months at most."
"The crude oil reserves of Shuiquan Oilfield exceed 500 million tons, which will allow us to use them for at least half a year. By then, we will have the strength to take over the entire Shanxi Province. Otherwise, no matter how much we have, it will be useless. Without fuel, tanks and planes are just a pile of scrap metal. It sounds harsh, but it is true."
There were some things that Lin Zhenhua had not explained in detail before, but now he laid it out directly to the three men. His purpose was to put pressure on them so that they could capture and hold on to the three counties in the shortest possible time.
Li Yunlong really didn't expect that there was a hidden story in this. He was a little surprised before. Lin Zhenhua was obviously very conservative during those days, but he suddenly became radical in the past few days. He didn't expect that there would be problems with the fuel supply. This also made him face up for the first time how important fuel is to mechanized troops.
"College student, I promise you on behalf of Lao Kong and Lao Ding that the three of us will take these three counties at all costs and will never let your plan fail!"
Kong Jie and Ding Wei also expressed their opinions. The three of them discussed the next combat operations in detail. Even if the intelligence was eavesdropped, they didn't care. They just played their cards openly to the Japanese in order to force them to take action. As long as the Japanese took the initiative to come out of the city, their secret plan would be able to change the situation of the battle.
It must be said that Lin Zhenhua's previous prediction was correct. Their radio station was indeed monitored by the Japanese. The reason was not complicated. There was a traitor among the telegraph operators. He secretly told Zhu Ziming the frequency. In order to save his life, Zhu Ziming informed General Yingzuo of the matter. General Yingzuo found a way to call for monitoring equipment and successfully monitored their conversation.
In fact, Lin Zhenhua did not expect that the old devil Yingzuo would be so bold as to sneak into the nearby mountains and forests. If he knew, he would definitely be secretly on guard, realizing that the enemy might be more difficult to deal with than he imagined.
General Yingzuo immediately sent the intelligence to Shinozuka Yoshio. He wanted to conceal it, but he thought that if the 12th Army really had a big problem, the consequences of concealing it would be something he could not bear. At the same time, he was secretly afraid. He did not expect that the enemy's ambition would be so big that they would take over the entire Shanxi Province in the next six months, and the army would be expanded to 15 within six months.
"Bagayalu! Who on earth came up with this stupid idea to send those disaster victims to the enemy for nothing? And that damned air transport line, we must do everything we can to destroy it."
"Everyone, leave with me immediately and go to Taiyuan City with me. Before leaving, clear all traces and do not leave any clues for the other party! Have Zhu Ziming immediately cut off the connection with the inner ghost and let the inner ghost enter a silent state immediately. Before I actively wake him up, he must not pass any information to the outside world!"
General Yingzo reacted very quickly. He immediately ordered the spy arranged by Zhu Ziming to cut off contact with the outside world. But it was too late. Zhao Gang led his men into the yard and caught the spy who was setting up the radio station. Finally, he caught the spy who was hiding among the telegraph operators.
The reason why Zhao Gang suspected that there was a traitor among the telegraph operators was that the communication network set up by the base was actually interrupted. This was very difficult to happen in reality, but it was interrupted for two hours. This made Zhao Gang certain that there was a traitor among the telegraph operators.
It sounds weird, but actually it's not weird at all. In order to ensure the security of communication lines, the laying of the most confidential telephone lines was entrusted to the telegraph operator. As a result, the telephone line was blown up by the Japanese. This made Zhao Gang immediately suspect the telegraph operator.
But after the whole telegraph operator was found out, this guy was just a small fry, and the real big fish was actually hiding in the arsenal. He was instigated by the real mole. When Zhao Gang took people to catch the real mole, the telegraph operator who was responsible for the arsenal's external liaison had mysteriously disappeared. Zhao Gang immediately ordered a large-scale manhunt, but after two full days of searching, there was no gain. He immediately informed Lin Zhenhua of the matter and asked about the next course of action.
Lin Zhenhua did not expect that something would go wrong when arresting the spy, nor did he expect that Zhu Ziming would actually play the nesting doll game. It was completely beyond his expectations, but he quickly calmed down. He would launch an attack on Fu'an County tomorrow morning. No matter how many conspiracies and tricks the Japanese came up with, they would be in vain in the face of absolute strength!
"Old Zhao, don't be too anxious about this matter. Zhu Ziming has planted several hooks in our base. We have only found one after investigating so far. This shows how cunning Zhu Ziming is."
"The previous theft of the blueprints was definitely Zhu Ziming's doing. This time the Japanese stole some blueprints from our arsenal. You should immediately lead your men to start from the blueprint storage room and conduct a strict and detailed investigation. I suspect there are still nails planted by Zhu Ziming."
"Catching spies is not something that can be accomplished in a day or two. As long as our strength continues to grow, the Japanese devils' tricks will not have much effect at all. Your most important task at present is to carry out the third phase of the arsenal expansion. This work must be completed within the next month and a half."
"I have deliberately leaked the news about the air transport line. I estimate that the Japanese will start to take action in the next two days. You should have the air force battalion prepare for an ambush and try to take this opportunity to severely damage the Japanese air force. The Japanese air force is very cunning now and has been avoiding fighting with us, which has prevented our plan to seize air superiority from being successfully implemented."
"If we don't gain air superiority over the battlefield, we won't be able to launch an attack with peace of mind. The lesson of the last attack on Ping'an County is still fresh in our minds. Without air superiority over the battlefield, our armored forces will be sitting ducks for the Japanese."
Zhao Gang nodded in agreement and replied with a serious face: "Don't worry, college student! I will strictly implement your plan and will never make any decision on my own."
After ending the call, Lin Zhenhua walked into the temporary command center and told Kong Jie and Li Yunlong about the situation of catching the traitor. When they learned that the traitor had escaped, they were very angry and scolded Zhu Ziming for a full ten minutes before returning to the main topic.
"College students, the lesson from last time is still vivid in our minds. This time we must wait until the bombing is over before launching an attack on the Japanese's outer positions. We must not make the same mistakes again!" Li Yunlong said with a gloomy face.
