Chapter 648: Building a factory!
Li Yunlong looked at the performance parameters of the 88mm anti-aircraft gun in his hand, and then said:
"Caliber 88mm
Total combat weight: 55 tons
Pitch angle-386°
Direction angle 360°
Rate of fire: 15-20 rounds/minute
Vertical maximum range meters
Effective shooting height: 9900 meters
Horizontal maximum range meters
The combat team consists of 11 people."
According to Yan Shuangying, this is the main anti-aircraft gun currently equipped by the German army, and its air defense performance is extremely excellent.
After listening to the 88mm anti-aircraft gun data, everyone's eyes were clear and translucent.
This gun is very suitable for the current artillery needs of the Eighth Route Army in terms of range, power and purpose.
Yan Shuangying left two anti-aircraft gunners behind to teach the gunners of the new regiment how to use anti-aircraft gunners.
There is an instruction manual. It is not difficult to operate this 88mm anti-aircraft gun, but if you want to shoot accurately and shoot down enemy aircraft with the fewest shells in battle, you must undergo professional guidance and training.
Although the new regiment is currently equipped with 37mm anti-aircraft guns.
But the 37mm anti-aircraft gun can only hit enemy aircraft at medium altitude.
Combined with a 20mm cannon, it can defend against mid-altitude and low-altitude bombers and fighter dive attacks.
However... once the Japanese plane is at high altitude, the 37mm anti-aircraft cannon and the 20mm machine gun can do nothing against the Japanese plane.
For example, in the last anti-mopping campaign, two Japanese reconnaissance planes were conducting reconnaissance at high altitudes, but the Eighth Route Army had nothing to do with the Japanese reconnaissance planes.
But with this 88mm anti-aircraft gun, how can the little Japanese reconnaissance plane be so arrogant?
In the future, the Japanese reconnaissance planes will come back for reconnaissance, and they will directly carry out a fishing law enforcement operation for the Japanese reconnaissance planes, creating some noise to attract the Japanese reconnaissance planes to come over for high-altitude reconnaissance, and then use the 88mm anti-aircraft cannon to hit the Japanese reconnaissance planes several kilometers away.
He was shot down by a Japanese reconnaissance plane at high altitude.
Without reconnaissance planes, the Japanese would be blind and deaf.
"The effective shooting height is 9900 meters?"
Seeing this performance, Li Yunlong's heart became even more intense.
This also means that even if the Japanese planes drop aerial bombs at high altitudes, they dare not do so unscrupulously and as they please.
The 88mm anti-aircraft gun will teach the Japanese pilots how to behave.
Xing Zhiguo looked at the 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns and said happily: "Hahaha... Now we are all alive. Our anti-aircraft firepower can protect low, medium and high altitudes."
Xing Zhiguo thought that it would be much more comfortable to be the deputy commander of the new regiment than to be the main commander of the 129th Division in Southeast Shanxi.
After this expansion, the main personnel of the new regiment will reach 40,000.
The size of this army has exceeded that of an army in Japan.
Although he is still a deputy commander in name, he is almost living the life of a deputy commander.
Not to mention the equipment, the new regiment has hundreds of cannons of various calibers, and except for aircraft and warships, it basically has other equipment.
The combat power is extremely powerful. If you pick out any battalion at random, its combat power will be much higher than that of his main force.
"It's a pity that the number is too small..." Li Yunlong pursed his lips, "There are only 12 doors."
The 16 heavy howitzers I received today are very good. Including the 8 heavy howitzers I owned before, the total is 24.
This is exactly the size of a heavy howitzer regiment.
Of course, the new regiment is a regiment-level organization, so it cannot be organized into a heavy howitzer regiment, only a heavy howitzer battalion.
A heavy howitzer company is equipped with 8 heavy howitzers, exactly three companies.
So today Li Yunlong focused his attention on these 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns.
Air defense, air defense, nine out of ten air defenses.
Just relying on one or two anti-aircraft guns is not enough. There must be a certain number and a considerable number of artillery shells to form a firepower network.
For example, the New Regiment's firepower network of 100 20mm machine guns and 40 37mm anti-aircraft guns shot down three Japanese aircraft in less than 10 seconds.
If there were dozens or hundreds of these 88mm anti-aircraft guns, it would be comfortable!
Several artillery battalion commanders had burning eyes, and they wished they could immediately bring this 88mm anti-aircraft gun to their battalions.
"Captain!"
Heavy Artillery Battalion Commander Yao Shangwen was the first to speak, with an unusually firm tone:
"These 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns belong to our heavy artillery battalion. When the Japanese planes come again, our heavy artillery battalion will be responsible for high-altitude defense. If the Japanese planes cannot shoot down the Japanese planes, I, Yao Shangwen, will come to see you."
Yao Shangwen wanted the B4 heavy howitzer more, but Li Yunlong couldn't give it to him.
Because Li Yunlong has already said that he wants to create a heavy howitzer battalion.
Although his heavy artillery battalions are all 150mm howitzers, with a total of 30, they are not at the same level as the 203mm heavy howitzers in terms of power and range.
"Why?"
Gao Tianyi, commander of the anti-aircraft artillery battalion, was immediately unhappy:
"This is an anti-aircraft gun, not a howitzer. Why should it belong to your heavy artillery battalion?"
"These 12 anti-aircraft guns belong to our anti-aircraft gun battalion. Whoever wants to snatch them from me will be in a hurry!"
"Old Gao, I don't like hearing what you are saying." Wang Chengzhu said, "An anti-aircraft gun is also a cannon. Besides, this anti-aircraft gun can only be used for masturbation. Didn't you hear what Boss Chen's bodyguard said? This is called
All artillery can be used to attack anything. The regimental commander wants me to say that these 12 88mm guns must be assigned to the first artillery battalion. When there are more guns next time, they will be assigned to other artillery battalions, and so on."
"Old Wang, don't make a fool of yourself." He Jie, the commander of the machine gun battalion, said, "This is a cannon used to masturbate, and it has nothing to do with your 1st artillery battalion."
"Let me tell you, there are 12 artillery pieces here." Li Changsheng, commander of the Second Artillery Battalion, suggested, "We now have 4 artillery battalions, and each artillery battalion has three 88mm anti-aircraft guns."
"..."
The four artillery battalion commanders talked to each other. Except for Li Changsheng, the other three artillery battalion commanders wanted to capture all 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns.
Zhang Dabiao on the side smiled and shouted: "What if you, artillery battalion commanders, win a battle and whoever wins these 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns will get it?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Several artillery battalion commanders looked at each other angrily for a while, which made people doubtful. If the regiment commander and political commissar were not here today, several people would probably really fight for these 12 88s.
Millimeter anti-aircraft guns fight.
"okay!"
Li Yunlong first glared at Zhang Dabiao, then stared at several artillery battalion commanders and cursed:
"What do each of them look like? Aren't they just 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns? They look like they have never seen the world. Let alone be a soldier of a new regiment, labor and management cannot afford to lose that person."
"No one has a stake in this 88mm anti-aircraft gun this time."
"I plan to set up a separate 88mm anti-aircraft gun battalion, which will be directly under the regiment headquarters."
This time, there were a total of 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns, and Boss Chen sent them to the new regiment together with the heavy howitzers.
Since the Eighth Route Army did not have its own transport aircraft, it was difficult to hand over these 12 anti-aircraft guns, so Li Yunlong planned to discuss it later.
Although an artillery battalion of the New Regiment has at least dozens of cannons.
But 12 88mm guns are also part of an artillery battalion in other units.
Moreover, these 12 88mm anti-aircraft guns are just the beginning.
Commander Li Da knew very well that there would probably be a lot of 88mm anti-aircraft guns in his future business.
For example, 150mm howitzers, 203mm heavy howitzers, etc., don’t the new regiments now have dozens of them?
After scolding several artillery battalion commanders, Li Yunlong ordered the troops to disband.
Several artillery battalion commanders walked away arm in arm with comfortable expressions on their faces.
Subsequently, Li Yunlong ordered all the cannons and artillery shells to be pulled back.
Li Yunlong is looking forward to the next business deal even more.
"Whenever you can kill a Japanese general, you will make a lot of money."
Returning to the regiment headquarters, Li Yunlong said with a tone full of expectation.
"Kill the Japanese general?" Zhao Gang thought about it carefully and said, "I guess it will be difficult. We haven't even seen a Japanese general yet."
"And among the nearly 200,000 Japs in North China, there is only one Japs general, the commander of the North China Front Army, Okamura Neiji."
"That old Japanese Neji Okamura is very good. Last time five Japanese divisions attacked northwest Shanxi, this old Japanese didn't even come."
"I guess even Boss Chen can't get information on the whereabouts of an old devil like Okamura Neji."
"Old Zhao, this is really not certain." Li Yunlong suddenly thought of something and said, "You have forgotten that Boss Chen is in the North China Front Army Headquarters, but he has his senior agents, and there are more than one. Boss Chen should be able to
Obtained information on the whereabouts of Neji Okamura."
"In case, I said just in case." Zhao Gang raised his eyebrows, as if he had thought of something, and said, "What if Brother Chen's senior agent is Okamura Neji?"
Li Yunlong's expression was slightly stunned.
I was speechless.
He thought about this issue carefully, because from all aspects, it was not impossible.
After all, in the North China Front Army Headquarters, there were definitely no more than five Japanese officers who could know the specific whereabouts of Gu Hisao half a month in advance.
But soon Li Yunlong's reason prevailed. Is Okamura Neiji a senior agent of Boss Chen?
If this is true, then what the hell is Japan doing?
If that's the case, just let the Eighth Route Army pretend to fight a few defeats and suffer heavy losses, and let Neji Okamura take the position of commander-in-chief of the dispatch army.
Wouldn't it be great to kill hundreds of thousands of Japs in China in one fell swoop by coordinating internal and external forces?
"Boss Chen's senior agent cannot be Okamura Neiji." Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes slightly, "It should be a close staff officer or chief of staff or deputy chief of staff level around Okamura Neiji."
One time when he was having dinner with Boss Chen, Li Yunlong asked tentatively, but Chen Feng did not answer directly.
From then on, Li Yunlong didn't ask again.
However, both Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong knew that this senior agent must be someone close to Neji Okamura, someone he trusted extremely.
Otherwise, how could the senior agent not be found out after sending so many intelligence reports?
"Let's not discuss this first." Zhao Gang said: "This time, we have killed two Japanese major generals. Can we exchange the machinery and equipment of two factories from Boss Chen?"
"That's true!" When he mentioned this, Li Yunlong suddenly became energetic, "Last time, we killed the old devil Yin Sanxiong. I was still debating whether to choose the steel plant or the cement plant. Now let's kill him.
With the help of two Japanese major generals, the cement factory and the steel factory are both alive, and we can also choose an additional weapons repair shop."
The cost-effectiveness of this business is considered to be among the best in previous businesses.
The small losses of the new regiment were just casualties suffered by the cavalry battalion when they repeatedly blocked the Japanese cavalry, and the casualties were very small.
But the benefits are huge.
Although the 4 B4 heavy howitzers for a Japanese major general are a bit less, if you kill a major general, in addition to the 4 heavy howitzers, you can also get a factory.
If you want to build a fortress, you will need a lot of steel and cement.
Building steel plants and cement plants is the fastest way.
in addition.
According to Boss Chen, it is best to build cement roads for the roads in the base area, which also require a lot of cement.
There are also large material storage warehouses under construction, which also require a large amount of steel bars and cement.
As Xinyi Tuan grows stronger, the demand for steel bars, cement and other materials is also increasing.
As for the weapons repair shop, the original Xinyi Regiment did have one, but it was not very large.
Because of Boss Chen, in the past, those weapons that could be repaired were repaired as much as possible. Those that could not be repaired were directly reported with figures and asked to be reimbursed by Boss Chen.
But Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang looked at the problem from a long-term perspective, what if Boss Chen doesn't reimburse him in the future.
Most of the reason why the New Regiment has such strong combat effectiveness is because of these advanced and sophisticated weapons and equipment, as well as the logistical supplies provided by Boss Chen.
If one day something unexpected happens, Boss Chen's assistance is interrupted and the logistics supplies disappear.
Then the combat effectiveness of the new group will plummet.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! So in the future business, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang plan to make more money. The weapons production line of the arsenal, steel plant, cement plant, and weapons repair shop are just the beginning.
As long as you have a complete arsenal in hand, even if business assistance is interrupted, the new regiment of soldiers will still have a steady supply of weapons and ammunition.
It's just that the equipment to build the factory needs to wait until Dagu Town Airport is repaired before Boss Chen can start arranging transportation.
Li Yunlong said: "Just leave the factory work to Zhang Wanhe. Lao Zhao, you should take charge of the political work of the entire regiment."
Originally, Li Yunlong planned to hand over the factory work to Zhao Gang.
But after Zhang Wanhe came to the New Regiment as the logistics director, Li Yunlong changed his mind.
after all.
Now that the new regiment is about to expand, as the political commissar of the new regiment, Zhao Gang's workload has also increased dramatically.
Political Commissar Zhao not only has to manage the lives of tens of thousands of people.
He must also be responsible for the ideological construction and stable discipline of the tens of thousands of members of the New Regiment, and be in charge of the political education of the New Regiment.
Li Yunlong considered that if political commissar Zhao was asked to do factory work, he would definitely be too busy every day and would be unable to do anything else.
It would be better to let Zhao Gang do his job as political commissar. This is the most important thing.
"Director Zhang?" Zhao Gang said with a worried tone, "Isn't he still in charge of logistics? I also leave the factory affairs to him. Can he handle it?"
"Haha." Li Yunlong laughed and said, "Don't worry, this old boy Zhang Wanhe is very capable. He can reach the position of the logistics director of the 129th Division. He learned it from our old Li. He never suffers losses in business.
."
"Lao Li, just play it, I learned it from you, why don't you go to heaven?" Zhao Gang suddenly laughed.
