In the forest southwest of Donghui Town, a team of seventeen people was running wildly along the winding mountain road towards the depths of the mountains.

Everyone was carrying a heavy backpack behind him, fully armed: some were carrying a rifle on their backs, a submachine gun in their arms, some were carrying a light machine gun, a twenty-shot box cannon on their waists, and some were carrying mortar parts...

Everyone was gasping for breath, desperately following the steps of the group leader Zhou Cheng.

This is the tenth armed cross-country training conducted by the reconnaissance team after it was established.

I have conducted nine cross-country training sessions before, adding one kilometer every two times, and today it has increased to exactly twenty kilometers.

Zhou Cheng is used to running. Although he is very tired, his steps on his feet are still very powerful and he has no intention of slowing down at all.

After finally running twenty kilometers, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. When they were ready to take a good rest, Zhou Cheng didn't plan to let them go.

Human potential is unlimited. Only by stimulating them little by little can the combat effectiveness of more than a dozen people in the reconnaissance team become stronger and stronger.

A sudden inspiration command: "The army immediately dispersed and concealed in groups. Next, we will conduct lurking training and give everyone ten minutes to prepare. If I find it during lurking, three obstacle runs will be added after the training."

"When I entered the mountain just now, I found that there were many signs of prey activity around us. I hope you can catch a few pheasants and hares when you lurk later. If you can kill a wild boar, you will definitely be able to eat meat every time in the next half month!"

"Start action..."

As soon as Zhou Cheng finished speaking, several group leaders cried in his ears.

"The sniper team followed me and lurked to the east. There seemed to be a movement of prey there!" The leader of the sniper team holding a 38-large cover in his hand led the deputy archer into the forest.

"Assault group follows me..."

He held a submachine gun, carried a rifle, and had at least five grenades and grenades on his body. Then he saw two commandos in the same outfit disappearing into the woods with him.

"Assault Group 2 follows me..."

"The firepower team and I go here to hide and lurk..."

In the blink of an eye, the sixteen team members around Zhou Cheng disappeared completely...

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the investigation team returned to the station, and the equipment did not change at all, but each team member had an extra pheasant or hare, and two team members worked together to carry a wild boar...

These are the results achieved by the reconnaissance team during the daytime lurking in the mountains.

When Zhou Cheng seized the time to train the reconnaissance team, Yuan Shushan transported two weapons and ammunition from the arsenal, all of which were guard companies responsible for handling and transporting.

Although the Guard Company was attacked by Japanese every time, it lost a lot of equipment and ammunition, as the Guard Company became more and more experienced, the weapons and ammunition successfully transported to the Third Battalion's garrison became more and more. So far, the Third Battalion has built two main companies.

Faced with this result, Yuan Shushan not only did not have any doubts, but was grateful to the Guard Company.

After learning that the guard company had a serious shortage of submachine guns, he specially transferred ten more reinforcements from the arsenal.

The regiment headquarters also gained a lot. With the close cooperation of the Guard Company and the Second Battalion, not only did they successfully intercept more than 100 79-caliber rifles and five Czech-made ones, but they also seized a heavy machine gun and two mortars.

Not to mention submachine guns, box cannons, and grenades.

Not only did all the platoon leaders of the first battalion be armed into a double-gun configuration with a long and a short one, but the secret arsenal of the regiment headquarters also had an additional fifteen submachine guns and five hundred grenades.

At present, Yuan Shushan is preparing to transport supplies from the arsenal for the fifth time, and it is necessary to draw in large quantities to make up for all the weapons and equipment lacking in the third battalion at one time.

At this moment, Deputy Commander Tang Yufeng suddenly found the reconnaissance company.

"Captain, there is something happening in the arsenal!" Tang Yufeng reported immediately after confirming that there were no outsiders around him!

Zhou Cheng frowned and looked at Tang Yufeng in confusion, waiting for his next sentence.

Tang Yufeng continued to report: "Our investigators found signs of Japanese and puppet troops' activities around the arsenal!"

"I guess it was because Yuan Shushan transported weapons and ammunition from the arsenal during this period. Which link was exposed, which attracted the attention of the Japanese. Fortunately, the Japanese scouts were temporarily active on the outskirts of the mountains where the arsenal was located, and they had not yet entered the mountains. However, judging by their posture, they would sooner or later enter the mountains, and the arsenal would be completely exposed at that time!"

"In the style of the Japanese, I will definitely send troops to capture the arsenal as soon as possible, or directly send troops to destroy the arsenal."

"Before I came, I roughly calculated that Yuan Shushan has transferred four reinforcement companies from the arsenal during this period. He will also draw at least two hundred guns at one time in the past few days."

"If you are right, the light weapons in the arsenal have been almost adjusted, but there are also many heavy weapons and a large amount of ammunition stored in it. If they are discovered and destroyed by the Japanese, it would be a waste."

"I'm here to ask you if there is any way to get the equipment and ammunition in the arsenal in front of the Japanese, and leave an empty arsenal for the Japanese to blow up!"

Zhou Cheng didn't expect this accident.

A standard brigade has been replenishing ammunition for the past two years, and there are 500,000 or 600,000 rounds of various bullets, as well as a large number of grenades and artillery shells. Even if it is transported by a large truck, it requires hundreds of vehicles.

With so many weapons and ammunition transported from the Japanese army's noses, the possibility of success is almost zero.

Moreover, there is a garrison company in the arsenal, and they will definitely not allow themselves to transport weapons and ammunition from the arsenal.

If the two sides are forced to rob, they will definitely exchange fire. No matter which side of the National Salvation Army or the Guardians suffers casualties, it is not the result that Zhou Cheng wants to see.

What worries Zhou Cheng the most is that once there is a conflict between the two sides, the garrison would rather blow up the arsenal than give it to him, which would be a bit of a loss.

Seeing Zhou Cheng's brows getting deeper and deeper, Tang Yufeng knew that he had no good idea, so he sighed and suggested: "Captain, if there is really no way, we will pass this news to Yuan Shushan. Yuan Shushan definitely doesn't want those ammunitions to be destroyed. It is better to fall into his hands than to blow it up!"

Zhou Cheng shook his head: "No!"

"If Yuan Shushan is allowed to fully master this batch of weapons and ammunition, then we will not have enough."

"We consumed a lot of ammunition last time, and although we seized a lot of them, they were far from being depleted. I also expect the shells and grenades in the arsenal to increase our ammunition reserves?"

"We must find a way to hold all the remaining weapons and ammunition in the arsenal in front of the Japanese!"

Tang Yufeng also wanted to do this, but it was too difficult. He frowned and replied: "Captain, the arsenal may be exposed at any time, and the time left for us is very limited. If we continue to use the old method, we will definitely not be able to empty the arsenal in front of the Japanese!"

"Then find another way!" Zhou Cheng thought about it and answered.

At this moment, Tang Yufeng's report just now flashed out in his mind. He felt that there was the information he wanted, but suddenly he couldn't remember it.

He asked quickly: "Old Tang, I remember you said that Yuan Shushan would transport weapons and ammunition from the arsenal these days, and there were still a large number of them?"

Tang Yufeng nodded: "Yuan Shushan planned to make up all the weapons and ammunition missing from the Third Battalion through one transportation. For this reason, he came to me specifically, hoping to second one hundred mules and horses from the baggage company to transport weapons and ammunition at one time. I have agreed. The guard company set off the night after tomorrow, rushed to the receiving point one night, and got the weapons and ammunition the next night and then transported them back to the regiment headquarters!"

"One hundred mules and horses?" Zhou Cheng took a deep breath and stared at Tang Yufeng and continued to ask.

"How much equipment is still missing in the Third Battalion?"

Tang Yufeng kept staring at the Third Battalion, and every move there was clear. After hearing Zhou Cheng’s problem, he blurted out without thinking about it: “There is still one company short of the sporty machine gun, two small heavy machine guns, two small mortars, twenty small submachine guns, and ten small box guns…”

Zhou Cheng's eyes lit up as soon as he heard this: "There are still so many, then Old Tang, you said just now that Yuan Shushan would transport 200 rifles from the arsenal, there would definitely be fewer."

"To be safe, he should have transferred three hundred rifles, at least ten Czech-made, four heavy machine guns, and four mortars!"

"There are strengthened matching bullets, grenades, submachine guns, box cannons, and one hundred mules and horses can be pulled back."

"Old Tang, I wondered why we got the remaining weapons and ammunition in the arsenal before the Japanese took action!"

"Yuan Shushan transported so many weapons and ammunition at one time, and the defense of the arsenal could not send them all to the receiving point twice, which was our opportunity."

Tang Yufeng hadn't understood it yet, so he quickly asked: "What opportunity?"

Zhou Cheng thought about it and explained: "After receiving the order to transport weapons and ammunition, the Arsenal Guard Company will definitely send half of the weapons and ammunition to the receiving point first."

"So many weapons and ammunition, we must send someone to stare at it."

"In the past two days, we will let the Second Battalion make some noises around the defense zone, so that the garrison company will think that the connection point is not too calm and there may be a risk of exposure at any time."

"In order to protect the weapons and ammunition that have been sent to the receiving point, they must leave at least one platoon, and the troops transporting weapons and ammunition back and forth must not be missing. In order to send the remaining weapons and ammunition to the receiving point on time, the garrison company can only reduce the number of troops garrisons in the arsenal."

"At that time, we should approach the arsenal, try not to hurt anyone, and quietly take down the arsenal, then move away the remaining weapons and ammunition, and wait until the garrison company handed over the supplies and came back, the arsenal was empty."

"At this time, we pretended to be a Japanese raid to raid the arsenal, because the arsenal was empty and lost its meaning to defend, and there was only our National Salvation Army nearby. They would definitely give up the arsenal and transfer it to our defense zone."

"At that time, we can not only get the remaining weapons and ammunition in the arsenal, but also take the opportunity to incorporate the arsenal garrison company and kill two birds with one stone."
