It feels like only one-third of the people are wearing military uniforms.
The others should be temporarily gathered local armed forces, including various county brigades, district squads, guerrillas, armed workers' teams, etc.
Weapons and equipment are also poor.
There are actually old sleeves made in Hanyang.
Such ancient weapons have long been gone in Li Yunlong's new group.
When it comes to side jobs, Li Yunlong is indeed an expert. Even if he doesn't help upgrade the equipment, the new regiment will still have no shortage of rifles.
"Comrade Zhang Chu, look..."
"Come with me!"
Zhang Chu nodded.
Poor weapons and equipment? It doesn’t matter.
Ammo is in short supply? No problem.
The key is that there are people.
As long as there are people, everything will be easy.
We took Chen Fan to a remote canyon nearby.
"This is……"
"Weapons and ammunition are all inside."
"What?"
Chen Fan was stunned.
Are there weapons and ammunition inside?
Isn't this a deserted valley? Overgrown with weeds...
Confused, he followed Zhang Chu in.
After walking a short distance, I saw boxes full of boxes.
Stacked on top of each other, they look like a mountain.
My blood suddenly surged!
sky!
There are really weapons and ammunition!
There are still so many boxes!
How many bullets and shells are there? Tens of thousands? Hundreds of thousands?
"This is a water-linked bullet."
Zhang Chu walked over and looked at the mark on the outside of the box.
Perhaps because of time travel, the markings on the outside of the bullet box are all in simplified Chinese.
It turns out they are all domestic products...
"This is a thirty-eight-cap bullet."
"These are Mauser rifle bullets."
Zhang Chu explained to Chen Fan as he walked.
There are more than 100 boxes of each type of bullets, which means at least 150,000 rounds.
It seems that the main force of water-linked bullets is more numerous, with a full thousand boxes, which is 1.5 million rounds.
Bullets are not valuable, so Zhang Chu is certainly not stingy at all.
"This is the DP-28 light machine gun!"
"Three hundred in total!"
"This is an 81mm mortar."
"Fifty doors in total."
"This is the Deshka heavy machine gun."
"Thirty in total."
"This is a grenade..."
"One hundred thousand in total..."
Zhang Chu introduced them one by one.
The valley is large enough to store the weapons and equipment of several regiments.
Unfortunately, the most important 75mm field gun has not been delivered yet. Moreover, the quantity is also limited.
Due to the limited capacity of the transport team, a maximum of 10 cannons can be delivered per day, including 120mm heavy guns.
Fortunately, Zhang Chu has no requirements. 10 doors a day is enough.
In fact, the most important shell.
When the 120th Division was first established, it had a mountain cannon.
This is something that the other two divisions don't have.
There are also some Madsen 20mm machine guns and the like. Unfortunately, they are all out of ammunition.
The shells of the mountain cannon have long been used up.
Objectively speaking, cannonballs are more valuable than the cannon itself.
Bullets can be reloaded, barely, but artillery shells absolutely cannot, because they will explode.
"Someone is coming!"
"Someone is coming!"
Chen Fan tried to stabilize his emotions.
There are so many weapons and ammunition, please send someone to move them quickly...
No!
etc!
No need to move.
Just make an ammunition depot here!
It just so happens that both sides of this valley are very steep.
Unless the Japanese aggressor plane discovers something, there will be no safety issues in a short period of time.
Will Japanese planes come again?
It probably won’t happen in the short term. Six of them were shot down just now!
There is less rain in northern Shanxi. I don’t have to worry about rain.
Besides, it doesn't matter if it rains. Weapons and ammunition are all waterproof.
"No rifle?"
Chen Fan suddenly remembered something.
There are so many weapons and equipment, but there is no rifle.
"No need for a rifle."
Zhang Chu shook his head.
Chen Fan pondered for a moment and then understood.
Indeed, if so many weapons are distributed, where are the rifles needed?
These weapons require a large number of personnel to operate.
Pure infantry, that is, about one-third.
There may even be redundant rifles by then.
Chen Fan began to arrange for personnel to distribute weapons and ammunition. Zhang Chu waited outside for the arrival of field artillery.
This is the main force in attacking the Japanese invaders!
Ten field guns, each with 200 rounds of shells.
All the artillery shells will hit the heads of the Japanese invaders. How long can a large group of Japanese invaders last?
"Captain!"
"The brigadier is here!"
"Captain!"
"The brigadier is here!"
Suddenly, a soldier hurriedly came to report
But it was Chen Fan's superior, the brigade commander of a certain brigade, who arrived. Zhang Chu and Chen Fan came together to see him.
When they met, Zhang Chu was a little surprised.
It’s actually the famous Bearded Brigadier!
sharp!
Saw another historical figure!
Although this brigade commander is not as famous as Li Yunlong's brigade commander, he is still famous.
During the War of Liberation, they fought all the way to the northwest.
That’s the real Northwest!
Not northwest Shanxi!
"brigadier!"
"Are you Comrade Zhang Chu?"
"Yes, I am Zhang Chu!"
"Okay! Okay! The head of the headquarters and the head of the division have asked me to say hello to you!"
"Thanks!"
Zhang Chu was secretly confused.
What? The headquarters also knows that he is here?
The big guys are very well informed. I thought they didn’t know.
"Comrade Zhang Chu, are you planning to make some big move?"
"I do not have it!"
"Still saying no? The Japanese have sent heavy troops to outflank us."
"Oh. You said this!"
"The Japanese invaders have one infantry regiment and two cavalry regiments. Isn't this a big move?"
"That's right..."
Zhang Chu nodded hurriedly.
Actually it's nothing. There are more enemies in the south.
They are often formed into divisions, independent mixed brigades and so on. Now a regiment is nothing more than a child's play.
"Brigade commander, let's take a look at the weapons and equipment first."
"What?"
"The weapons and equipment that Comrade Zhang Chu got us are enough for us to equip a brigade."
"Yeah?"
Brigadier Wang was a little surprised.
Following Chen Fan into the valley, he burst out laughing.
Smiling very happily.
"Comrade Zhang Chu, we accept everything as ordered. As a thank you, how about we start attacking the Fujii Regiment now?"
"Wait a minute..."
Zhang Chu said slowly.
The field artillery hasn’t been delivered yet!
Now he has formed a kind of support. Without field artillery, it feels like he will not be able to fight?
Before the war begins, a heavy bombardment with artillery must be carried out. Then the gun can be launched into battle.
Even the Japanese will suffer a large number of casualties after being bombarded, especially for ordinary field fortifications.
It's a pity, because there is a daily transportation limit. Otherwise, twenty 120mm heavy guns would be perfect. The temporary civil engineering works would be overturned with one shot.
"Report!"
"Commander Zhang, a transportation team is looking for you!"
Suddenly, a soldier came to report.
Zhang Chu nodded. The field artillery was delivered. He immediately ran to receive it.
Sure enough, there were ten field guns. Each one came with 200 rounds of shells. They were pulled by more than thirty mules. It was a mighty force.
The surrounding soldiers couldn't help but rush up to watch.
Wow!
Lots of cannons!
Are they all ours?
"Comrade Zhang Chu, you are really powerful! On behalf of the 120th Division, I thank you!"
"Thank you for the compliment! Now, we can start."
