Looking at the pile of equipment on the ground that was extremely familiar to fans of the Rabbit Army, Hu Biao said this with surprise.
Because the equipment on the ground is generally divided into two types.
One of the green pipes looked like some farm equipment after being stained with some soil during transportation.
Apart from the Rabbit family’s ‘AK47’ in the artillery world, what else can this thing be?
Originally, this type of equipment would not be developed until the late 1950s, and would not be equipped with the PLA troops until 1963.
However, with the hard work of Lao Yang and a team of five people, this equipment was not only successfully produced, but also transported.
That is to say, the quantity is a bit less. The entire 442nd Regiment was only allocated one gun and a mere 36 rounds of artillery shells. The quantity is a bit less.
However, this thing is composed of a total of 12 tubes, and the power after being fired in a salvo is quite amazing.
At least it can equal the power of two 105mm howitzer batteries, firing together at the same time.
If it is disassembled into a single tube, a single person can carry it on his back and maneuver quickly in a mountainous environment; and it can be fired in a single tube state; even in an emergency, the shell can "swoosh" after igniting the bottom with a torch.
Launch it all at once.
Likewise, such a single shot has considerable power, and can be said to be a weapon tailor-made for the volunteer army.
The other type is the 69 rocket launcher from later generations.
Of course, now this thing must be replaced with a new model number. At the same time, according to the excavator veteran, this thing is limited by the current processing technology.
In terms of power, it is only the genuine version, which has about 70% more armor-piercing ability and power.
In addition, the number was not large. Hu Biao and his 442nd Regiment were only allocated a total of nine vehicles, almost one for each main company, and 6 rounds of ammunition.
But even so, compared to the original situation in history, this situation is already much better.
Needless to say, after getting these new equipment, Hu Biao was looking forward to the arrival of the first phase of the mission; in fact, it was coming soon...
******
Time: December 29, 1950, early 6 o'clock in the evening.
Location: The temporary location of the 148th Division and 442nd Regiment of the Volunteer Army.
At that time, Hu Biao was eating his own dinner; specifically, it was a bowl of rice and some pickles, plus a pipe of cold water.
Thanks to the current volunteer army, the logistics are slightly better than before. At least they don't need to eat the famous military food such as fried noodles.
It's a pity that once a war breaks out, you still need to eat this stuff.
Because with the current logistics level of the Volunteer Army, it is still unable to provide effective supplies to the frontline combat troops during the battle. They can only rely on a bag of fried noodles per person as dry food.
They are usually distributed by logistics together with ammunition before the war.
The only difference from before was that in addition to fried noodles, the food handed out also included a piece of compressed biscuit wrapped in oil paper and a 200-gram box of canned pork.
Whether it is compressed biscuits or canned pork, there will be some simple Chinese writing on the packaging.
It shows that the life-saving food that can only be used urgently at these critical times is produced by Guo Jia ourselves; people look at it and like it indescribably.
Just when Hu Biao scooped up a bowl of rice until not a single grain of rice was left.
Suddenly, Kuang Leiyun, the fifth squad leader, squatted next to him and shouted loudly in Hu Biao's ear:
"Look, Old Hu, Company Commander Ma of the Second Battalion is here to see you guys again. How can a cultured and promising young officer like him get on so well with a rough guy like you?"
There was indescribable envy and confusion in his tone.
No wonder Kuang Leiyun, the fifth squad leader who was Hu Biao's immediate superior, would have such a reaction.
Although Ma An, the first company commander of the 2nd Battalion of the 442nd Regiment, is young and only turned 19 this year, he is well-educated and has been in the army for a long time. He is smart and knows how to fight.
He has always been the leader of their group, a figure who is as precious as a pimple in Zheng Zheng's eyes.
That is to say, he is a little younger, otherwise he would have held the position of more than one company commander; but I heard that he will be promoted to the acting battalion commander of the second battalion soon.
Hu Biao and everyone in the Zhongzhou team, as a small squad leader and a top soldier, can have such a good friend in the army, just to talk about it is not a matter of face.
Not to mention, there are other enviable benefits.
For example, when the company commander Ma An comes over, he always brings something good to Hu Biao, maybe a pack of Pegasus cigarettes or some food.
Although there are not many things, in this environment, they are quite valuable.
The problem is, after seeing the young figure of Company Commander Ma with a straight back, Hu Biao and the others suffered from severe brain pain.
After getting up, I just wanted to run away collectively...
What makes Hu Biao and others have such a reaction is not that this young company commander Ma is a bit dirty and has different orientations, as some netizens thought.
Just because the other party was a child soldier of theirs in the past.
Hu Biao even vaguely remembered that when he was working at Songshan Fortress, this kid was already 13 years old, but due to long-term malnutrition, he looked like he was only 11 years old at most.
There are often two strips of mucus hanging from the nostrils.
Unexpectedly, after six years, he has become a handsome young man.
The other party always came to look for Hu Biao and others. It was because he saw Hu Biao's back once by chance that he immediately thought of the man who he would never forget and who could be said to have changed his life and destiny.
Even though he knew that the former Chief Hu was dead, the man in front of him named Hu Bi only looked similar from the back.
But whenever he has time, he also likes to come over and chat with Hu Biao and others.
Maybe this will give him the illusion that Chief Hu and the others are not dead yet?
Frankly speaking, Hu Biao and others actually like chatting with Ma An, because it makes them feel like their nephews have grown up and are now successful.
It was just after the last incident involving another child soldier, Zhang Quansheng.
They have a deeper understanding of the system's urinary nature; they are worried that if their relationship with Ma An is too good, the system will cause trouble and implicate the other party.
Therefore, Hu Biao and others are running away now just to take care of this former child soldier.
Unfortunately, as soon as Hu Biao got up, Ma An already shouted from a distance: "Lao Hu, and those other bastards, why are you running around? How can I eat you as a group of big men?
I said Hu Fat, your boy’s surname is also Hu, but the difference is huge.”
Seeing this, Hu Biao and others had no choice but to stay with a wry smile on their faces.
After the other party came closer, he explained: "I ran away somewhere, but my stomach hurts a little, and I want to go for some relief."
After hearing this, Ma An smiled and did not care too much about the clumsy lies in Hu Biao's mouth.
How could dozens of people have stomachaches at the same time?
After raising his hand and throwing a bunch of things over, he said: "Here, don't worry, these are given to me by the regiment leader, and they don't count the share that I made a mistake and blackmailed the soldiers."
Hu Biao instinctively took it and found that there were three more packs of cigarettes.
After giving a wry smile, Hu Biao opened the cigarettes and distributed them to everyone around him. After a round, only half a pack was left.
In the following time, everyone squatted on a slope in the temporary camp, smoking cigarettes and starting to chat.
To be more precise, it was Ma An who was talking, and a group of people from the Zhongzhou team were listening.
As if reminiscing, Ma An said that when he followed Chief Hu and the others, it was the first time in his life that he had a full meal. He would never forget the taste of dog meat stewed with radish.
And how those child soldiers got through these years of fighting.
What battles were fought, who died, and who were maimed.
In this situation, after Ma An talked alone for half an hour and the sky gradually darkened, he finally got up and started to go back.
But before leaving, he left a sentence:
"There's going to be a war soon. It's still a big war. I won't bother you in the next few days. Remember to be smart and don't die like Chief Hu and others~"
But Ma An, who left after saying this, said in his heart that he didn't know.
Looking at his back as he left, a group of gentlemen were also behind him, saying in a voice that only they could hear clearly:
