I guess this secret arsenal is no longer a big secret by now.
But the security is also tight!
The closer we get to Dalinzhuang, there are not only more checkpoints, but also more and more convoys.
However, Gong Shaoxun was holding a pass stamped by the 67th Army Headquarters. The 67th Army naturally had a high status in the Northeastern Army. Although the Sixth Regiment was not affiliated with the Northeastern Army, the officer responsible for checking the pass did not pay much attention to it.
After questioning and witnessing, he ordered the soldiers to remove the roadblock and let him pass.
On the simple road leading to Dalinzhuang, which can only carry horse-drawn carriages, there are more than just the Four Troops. From time to time, a convoy of horse-drawn carriages covered with oilcloth will drive out of Zhuangzi.
Whenever this happens, under Tang Dao's order, all personnel and carriages will take the initiative to go down to the dry land beside the road and wait for it to pass.
The Northeastern Army carrying supplies did not say anything about dismounting to express their gratitude, but drove directly past the Four Lines Regiment, and dust splashed on the faces of the officers and soldiers of the Four Lines Regiment from Tang Dao on down.
It happened once, and the officers and soldiers tolerated it, but it happened again and again, and a group of arrogant soldiers in the guard company became unhappy.
It's not that they can't afford ashes, but that their regimental commander is also despised by those bastards. They don't believe that the successive waves of Northeastern Army officers passing by are all blind, and the three gold stars of the Army Colonel have not been
Covered by dust.
Even if it is not an infantry army, when you see an officer who is a few ranks above you, you should not go up and salute and say hello?
"Tour members, we have many carriages and horses, but these guys are obviously much smaller, so why do we have to give in to them every time? And we don't see how grateful they are for letting them go."
Peng Chong, the commander of the security company, originally came from the Northeast Army system, and his personal temperament is still reserved. Especially after honing his position as the commander of the special agent company, he is much more stable than before, but he can't help it at this time.
Looking at these old colleagues who left without courtesy, he suppressed his anger and said.
"These brothers of the Northeast Army!" Tang Dao stood in the wilderness, squinting and looking at the vaguely visible village in the distance. "I'm afraid they already know the number of our unit and are a little unhappy about giving their equipment to us outsiders.
That's all. After all, this is the family property that the Northeast Army has accumulated for many years, so it's normal to have some resentment. Since we want to take other people's things, it's not too much to accept some idleness."
He looked around and said in a deep voice: "Pass on my military order. Anyone who belongs to my Four Lines Regiment should keep their tails between their legs. As long as others don't take the initiative to provoke us, just stand still and wait for me. If there is any gray entrance, just wait."
Swallow it to me, and no one is allowed to say anything to hurt others, otherwise military law will severely punish you!"
As soon as these words came out, Peng Chong and several officers around him whose anger levels were gradually building up were stunned for a moment, but they had nothing to say.
Ask yourself, if they were to change places, they, a group of veterans of the Northeastern Army, might do the same thing, or even go further than this. If they didn't say weird things in front of their eyes, they would actually be very restrained.
This move by the regimental commander really showed a big heart. In contrast, these actions of the Northeast Army were a bit too petty.
........
As everyone knows, at a checkpoint not far away, a captain officer reported the real situation of the convoy of the Four Troops Regiment to the dry field several times in succession over the phone.
In a small courtyard in a small town twenty kilometers away, a thin middle-aged soldier wearing two gold stars raised his eyes and read the message in his hand. He raised his head and sighed to Commander Wu sitting opposite him:
"Brother Jingshan, you are right again. Tang Dao is really an extraordinary person. With the dignity of a regiment leader and the name of a hero of the Anti-Japanese War, but without the slightest arrogance, Dalinzhuang sent four companies and platoon-level transports in succession.
He did not stay for a moment and turned a blind eye to them, but he was able to choose to be courteous and did not show any dissatisfaction. Even if the four-line regiment stood in the wilderness, they were in full military appearance, even the recruits who were still wearing civilian clothes were no exception!
This time, Brother Jingshan, you won again."
"Haha, Brother Duoquan is convinced that he will lose this time! What, I, Wu Jingshan, may not be as good as your brother in fighting, but I still have some discernment in looking at people!" After hearing what this person said, he sat upright.
Comrade Wu, who was sitting on the Grand Master's chair, looked very proud and laughed.
His face looked extremely relaxed, but in his heart, he was really sweating because of the small test that the man in front of him had set for Tang Dao.
In fact, although he, Old Wu, became one of the most important generals of the Northeastern Army after the young marshal was imprisoned, the man who once served as the young marshal's guard and is currently the commander of the 49th Army is the well-deserved number one figure in the Northeastern Army at this time.
The young commander relies heavily on him, which can be seen from the famous incident more than a year ago when he was the commander-in-chief! In the short term, no one will be able to challenge his authority in the Northeast Army.
It's okay to say that he took the initiative to give equipment to several infantry regiments to the 43rd Army. After all, he and the 43rd Army fought together in Songjiang, and they exchanged equipment for soldiers to supplement the equipment. The first general of the Northeast Army in front of him had to give it to him no matter what.
His face.
But the Si Xing Regiment is different. It is nominally under the command of the 43rd Army, but everyone knows that the Si Xing Regiment is actually very independent, and its designation was personally awarded by the Ministry of Military Affairs.
Needless to say, how much the Northeast Army hates the man who imprisoned the young marshal, why would they be willing to give away their wealth accumulated for many years to the hands of their "direct descendants" who may be their enemies?
Commander Wu spoke out at a limited high-level meeting of the Northeast Army, and even got angry and beat his chest to ensure that he reluctantly passed the proposal to provide equipment to the Four Lines Regiment. However, in the end, this commander still set up a small obstacle for Tang Dao. If the Four Lines Regiment
The regiment was not restrained enough by the intentional or unintentional provocations from the 49th Army. Even though Dalinzhuang was so close, the final outcome was also just around the corner.
"This boy is good. Being brave in battle is nothing. The key is that he understands human feelings at such a young age and is tolerant and restrained enough. Although his mind is a bit deep, judging from his performance on the battlefield, he never abandons his subordinates easily. He will not be an ungrateful person in the future!"
Some of the thin middle-aged soldiers also had smiles on their faces. "For these friendly troops, our officers and soldiers of the Northeast Army will not hesitate to make friends with them! Brother Jingshan, don't worry, I will send a telegram to the Dalinzhuang garrison for the equipment I promised you earlier."
Once it is delivered, there should be no room for trouble!”
Seeing that this person had expressed his position like this, Commander Wu showed satisfaction on his face and stood up, "Well, I'm busy with military affairs over there, so I won't bother you much and I'll take my leave!"
"It's getting late. Brother Jingshan, why don't you wait a little longer and let's have dinner together.\n.\n.\n.\n.\n.\n" Seeing Commander Wu getting up to leave, the thin middle-aged soldier quickly got up.
To retain.
Although Commander Liu has become the number one figure in the Northeastern Army in the post-Young Marshal era, in fact he is far from the prestige of the Zhang family and his son in the Northeastern Army. Commander Wu Jingshan and Commander Wu in front of him are the most powerful in the Northeastern Army.
His prestige is by no means inferior to his. The two are both colleagues who support the newspaper group and are rivals within the faction, but their relationship is quite subtle.
It's just that at the current stage, the Northeastern Army has to fight against the Japanese pirates externally and resist the suppression from that person internally. Unity is far better than internal strife and fighting. This relationship is naturally much more harmonious. Due to emotions and reasons, there must be a place for this dinner.
Remain.
"No need to bother, let's go! Stay behind!" Commander Wu waved his hands in a farewell gesture, walked out the door first, mounted his horse, and left under the escort of a cavalry platoon.
Standing at the entrance of the courtyard, watching Commander Wu leave in a hurry, a trace of horror flashed in the eyes of the thin middle-aged man.
Only then did he realize that he still underestimated the importance of Tang Dao in the eyes of his old friend and rival.
The commander of the army came here despite his busy schedule, but he really didn’t have anything else to do. He just came here just for Tang Dao. He was worried that Tang Dao would fail the small test he set, so that he could give Tang Dao
Come wipe your ass.
"Pass on my military order. Dalinzhuang will provide the Four Lines Regiment with corresponding equipment. No problems will be left behind! Also, don't be petty. The colonel commander is here in person and will receive you equally!" After watching Commander Wu and his entourage go away, a middle-aged man
The emaciated soldier ordered in a deep voice.
"Yes!" the adjutant replied from behind.
.........
Of course, Tang Dao and the rest of the Four Elements Group did not know the twists and turns involved. They only knew that after giving way to four or five groups of transport teams, the road conditions behind them miraculously became much smoother.
Not only did no convoy come out again, but all the checkpoints also gave the green light, as if they already knew they were coming. They even glanced at the pass stamped with the seal of the 67th Army Headquarters and immediately moved the roadblocks away. The lieutenants leading the teams at each checkpoint were still standing there.
People on the roadside saluted him politely.
"Maybe it's not surprising that there are so many people offering gifts! The commander is really awesome!" Peng Chong was so impressed.
When I finally arrived at Dalinzhuang, I discovered that it had become a military camp. A trench 2 meters deep and 2 meters wide was dug outside the village. Barbed wire fences were erected outside the trenches. An unknown number of bunker fortifications were built behind the trenches.
Standing in front of the entrance to greet the Si Xing Regiment was a colonel officer. Gong Shaoxun was obviously quite familiar with this officer. Looking at it from a distance, he introduced it to Tang Dao, "This is the former guard battalion commander of Commander Liu of the 49th Army. He is now the commander of the guard battalion."
He became the commander of the 626th Regiment of the 105th Division under his command."
Regarding the 49th Army, although Tang Dao is not as familiar with the 67th Army, he knows some of the combat history of this powerful Northeastern Army.
The 49th Army, like the 67th Army, first participated in the North China War of Resistance and fought a battle with the 10th Division at Jinghai on the Jinpu Line. After suffering heavy casualties, it was forced to move south.
Then the big boss ordered reinforcements for the Songhu Battle, which was in full swing. As a result, the reinforcements came from thousands of miles away just in time for the end of the Songhu Battle, just like the 67th Army.
Although not as miserable as the 67th Army, which was ordered to defend the city alone against the 100,000-strong Japanese army, it also served as the rear guard for the entire retreating army and fought fierce battles with the Japanese in Fengjing, Dachang, Shanghai-Hangzhou Highway and other places.
, three of its four regiment commanders of the 109th Division were killed in battle, and the commander of the 626th Regiment of the main infantry regiment of the 105th Division, of which Commander Liu personally served as division commander, was killed in battle. A total of four regiment commanders were killed in the entire army, accounting for 8
Half of the regiment commander, this also shows that the fierceness of the battle is not inferior to that of Tang Dao and the Songjiang battlefield where the 67th Army is located.
The colonel commander who was promoted by the commander of the guard battalion may not only be promoted, but also the commander of the army who wanted to ensure the combat effectiveness of the main infantry regiment under his command, so he was ordered to do so in a critical situation.
This infantry regiment with outstanding military exploits is stationed here, which also shows that the Northeast Army attaches great importance to this secret arms warehouse.
And when this person heard that Tang Dao and the Four Elements Regiment were coming, he personally went out to welcome him, which actually gave Tang Dao enough face. Otherwise, even if they sent a deputy to the regiment, Tang Dao, who came to collect the supplies, would not be able to say anything to them.
What.
The two army colonels exchanged military salutes and shook hands. Tang Dao, who was very polite, took out the letter for receiving weapons and equipment signed by Comrade Lao Wu from his arms and handed it to the burly and unsmiling army colonel.
"Commander Tang, please! Our department has already taken inventory of all types of equipment!" After taking the Tang Dao and handing over Commander Wu's personal letter, he carefully read it. The Army Colonel carefully handed it over to his adjutant to keep it, speaking concisely and concisely.
Although there are no extra courtesy, Tang Dao is actually more willing to deal with such colleagues. The main force is already a hundred miles away from where he is now, and he doesn't have much time to grind here, which also reduces the time cost.
The convoy drove into Zhuangzi, and groups of soldiers, under the command of officers of all sizes, transported weapons packed in boxes and wrapped in oilcloth and placed them in a small square, while the officer in charge of military supplies dispersed with Master Zhuang with three or four documents.
Carry out quantity verification and handover.
In Tang Dao's hand, he took the list of weapons respectfully sent by a major quartermaster of the other party. He was as calm as Tang Dao and could not help but stop breathing for several seconds.
The Northeastern Army was much more powerful than he thought. It was hard for Tang Dao to imagine that if there was no so-called non-resistance policy at that time, the hundreds of thousands of Northeastern Army with such sophisticated weapons and equipment would be able to beat 20,000 little devils to such a degree.
Will he be beaten into a dog?
A cliffhanger! Tang Dao is sure of it.
That was the one who was committed to fighting against the troops in the south that had already established a political power. His strategic thinking of 'struggle at home first and then secure the outside world' made him unwilling to have a greater conflict with the ambitious Japan, and even preferred to shoot.
Don’t give up the rich Northeast.
Facts have proved that the grand strategy he thought was successful couldn't be more wrong.
Not only was the army with the ideal of being the masters of the poor people in the world not eliminated, but after tempering, it finally found the best leader. It even sowed the spark of ideals on the way to the great retreat and stood firm in the barren north.
heel.
The Japanese wild wolves who couldn't be fed enough finally couldn't help coveting the fat in front of them and began to invade the entire China. But China was still not prepared for the national war that was destined to happen.
The Air Force has invested nearly 200 million yuan. Because of the talented and ambitious leader, a large amount of money is still lying in the Bank of the United States earning interest. The entire Air Force plus old training aircraft only has more than 300 aircraft, which is not enough for Japan's naval and air investment.
One-fifth of the fighter jets.
As the main body of the war, the Army's plan to reorganize 60 infantry divisions under the leadership of German military advisers was actually equipped with only three German weapon divisions. The huge reorganization plan was almost in vain.
Because of his concept of emphasizing direct lineage and weakening the miscellaneous army, the entire country's army has 182 infantry divisions and 46 independent brigades, 9 cavalry divisions and 6 brigades, 4 artillery brigades and 20 independent regiments, totaling nearly 2 million troops.
The system is chaotic and the combat effectiveness is appallingly low.
As for the navy, not to mention, the navy has four fleets and more than 100 ships of various types, but the total tonnage is only a pitiful 68,000 tons.
In comparison, the Japanese army before the war had various types of ships with a total tonnage of up to 1.9 million tons. The comparison in strength was almost that of a child holding a submachine gun and a small wooden stick.
That's a joke.
Tang Dao was not only surprised but also couldn't help but feel a sense of sadness when the Northeastern Army provided a complete weapons list for the infantry regiment.
Such equipment, not to mention forty regiments, even 20 regiments, could make it difficult for the little devils who only had 20,000 people at that time to walk around.
If time and space could go back, would that person regret his decision?
The list is as follows:
1. Six 15-year-old Liao-made 81mm caliber mortars, equipped with 3,000 rounds of shells;
2. 8 German-made MG08 Maxim heavy machine guns and 4 Belgian Browning heavy machine guns. Each machine gun is equipped with 9 barrels and 60,000 rounds of 7.\n92mm Mauser rifle ammunition;
3. Dagu made 150 imitation Czech ZB26 light machine guns, 1 spare barrel, and 150,000 rounds of 7.\n92mm Mauser rifle ammunition;
4. 150 Czech-made zh-29 semi-automatic rifles, equipped with 50,000 rounds of 7.\n92mm Mauser rifle ammunition;
5. 150 Liao-made 50mm caliber grenade launchers and 15,000 rounds of grenades;
6. Dagu made 150 imitation German Mauser submachine pistols (20-ring automatic type), 7.\n150,000 rounds of 63 Mauser pistol ammunition;
7. 1,500 Czech-made vz-24 rifles and 750,000 rounds of bullets;
8. Liao made 20,000 imitation German M24 wooden handle grenades;
9. 2 German-made Siemens five-watt radio stations;
10. 8,000 sets of Northeastern Army uniforms (4,000 winter clothes and 4,000 summer clothes each);
11. 12 Liao-made 14-year-old 37mm caliber anti-tank guns and 2,400 rounds of artillery shells;
12. 200 green imitation German Borgmann submachine guns, with 200,000 rounds of German 7.\n63mm Mauser pistol ammunition;
13. Two German-made Siemens 15-watt radio stations;
.\n.\n.\n.\n.\n
With this equipment, let alone a Japanese infantry brigade equipped with at most 2 92 infantry cannons, even a Japanese infantry regiment equipped with 10 92 infantry cannons and four 41-type mountain cannons would not be able to defeat it.
It would be too different!
At least, there will never be an infantry regiment chasing an infantry division.
In terms of light firepower, it is even stronger than the Japanese infantry brigade level. If it must be said that it is inferior, it is mainly in terms of heavy firepower. The range of the mortar is still too short after all, and it is far inferior to the Japanese Type 41 mountain gun with a range of up to 6,000 meters.
But this is not important to Tang Dao. The main battlefield of the Four Lines Regiment in the future is behind enemy lines. They can just kick the Japanese army in the butt and run away. The Japanese can only use 75 mountain guns at the largest scale, with level 105 and above.
The heavy artillery must also be able to be towed into the narrow mountain road.
It can be said that the equipment of this light-fire infantry regiment is simply tailor-made for the Four Lines Regiment that is about to go north.
How long will it take if we don’t completely replace weapons and equipment at this time?
Putting aside the common mortars, heavy machine guns, 20-shot shell guns, and submachine guns, the most attractive thing about Tang Dao is actually the semi-automatic rifle that is about to unify the global infantry individual weapons.
