After watching a team of steel industry, automobile industry, and military industry.
Then, the leaders rushed to Ding Wei's Xinyi Regiment base to visit the new chemical factory specially built by the Xinyi Regiment.
The initial construction of this new group of new chemical plants relied on the companies that moved the devils everywhere and the imported chemical companies, including various explosive plants, synthetic ammonia, synthetic rubber, coal chemicals, phosphorus chemicals, potash fertilizers, nitrogen fertilizers, etc.
The chemical industry park has begun to take shape.
The leaders were sitting in the viewing car, and following Ding Wei's introduction, they watched the development of Xinyituan's chemical industry. Everyone was smiling from ear to ear.
While watching, I talked about the disastrous defeat of the Japanese army in the May Day raids.
Commander Fu showed great interest. He was eager to know how the Eighth Route Army did all this. You must know that the Japanese had accumulated almost the entire strength of North China and launched an unprecedented sweep. If it had been his 35th Route Army, they might have been completely wiped out by such a vigorous raid by the Japanese.
Being on the territory of the New Regiment, with Ding Wei as the leader of the New Regiment, everyone's eyes quickly focused on him, wanting to hear his thoughts.
The Eighth Route Army generals who are familiar with Ding Wei know that Ding Wei has always had a long-term vision and his ability to analyze situations is unique.
In the end, Ding Wei was not modest, but after thinking for a moment, he replied: "I won't mention other reasons, just one point.
In fact, during this May Day raid, the Japanese made a fatal mistake.
It’s just that we didn’t carry enough combat supplies, so they entered our base area..."
The actual situation at that time was that although in the pre-war military meeting, Okamura repeatedly emphasized the need to protect the logistics and material supply lines, and bring enough supplies before entering the mountains.
After fighting against the Eighth Route Army in North China for so many years, Okamura has long understood the Eighth Route Army's targeted tactics, which especially like to destroy the empire's transportation and logistics lines.
After launching this unprecedented large-scale sweep, he has been wary of this area.
However, the Japanese troops participating in the May Day sweeps this time, in addition to the direct troops under Okamura, also included field troops drawn from various theaters.
These field troops' understanding of the Eighth Route Army was still based on the battles in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War and the Eighth Route Army's false propaganda over the years.
There are many officers who believe that "the Eighth Route Army has three guns and eight fronts, and one shot can penetrate the Eighth Route Army's base areas." The supplies they carry during combat are even less than half of what is needed for combat.
Some Japanese military officers even believed that the Eighth Route Army relied entirely on seizures to fight wars. If they brought less supplies, the Eighth Route Army would capture less and the energy consumed would kill the Eighth Route Army.
Ding Wei's voice continued.
"...What the devils don't know is that we have established a stable supply system and have produced and stockpiled a lot of supplies in advance.
As soon as the Japanese came, there were frequent battles in the first seven days, which consumed a lot of money. We delayed until the second week. We still had ammunition, but the Japanese began to run out of ammunition.
It was only after our high-intensity attack that the Japanese thought of transporting supplies. Unfortunately, it was a waste of money for our attacking troops who had been lurking in advance.
The troops protecting the transportation and material lines in the rear of the Japanese were short of troops, and those we lurked behind were elites, so we cut off the Japanese transportation lines easily.
As a result, the Japanese troops fighting deep in our base areas were unable to receive effective material supplies and supplements.
Not to mention not having enough to eat or drink, even the ammunition was almost exhausted after fighting for many days.
Later, the Japanese failed to penetrate our base area, supplies could not be delivered, and we could not retreat, so we fell into passivity.
Therefore, in addition to our own strong military strength, we were able to successfully defeat the Japanese army in the May Day sweeps. We also won in terms of logistical support!"
Kong Jie smiled and echoed: "What Lao Ding said is absolutely right. Not only that, I think from now on, even if the Japanese army wants to launch a large-scale raid on our base area, they have to consider whether their logistics supply can keep up."
Problem."
Nowadays, the area of the Eighth Route Army base areas is getting larger and larger, and some of them can even reach hundreds or thousands of kilometers in depth.
During the period when the Japanese army went deep into the base area for a large-scale sweep, the logistics support line would be stretched longer and longer. The Eighth Route Army relied on the stable logistics supply of the base area to completely crush the Japanese army in terms of logistics support.
Under such circumstances, the Japanese army's large-scale raids naturally became more and more difficult.
However, Kong Jie continued: "Of course, the little Japs are not stupid, and they have become smarter now. According to the intelligence I obtained, the Japanese army has even begun to authorize major military towns to make full use of the resources in the occupied areas to produce supplies on the spot.
Replenish the battle damage."
Li Yunlong said: "That would be better. Let's raise some towns occupied by the Japanese as pigs. When the pigs are fattened, we will kill a few of them. Wouldn't it be possible to eat meat during the Chinese New Year?" p>
After everyone heard this, they all laughed.
As Li Yunlong spoke, he called out his old comrades and leaders to visit his new second regiment.
The industrial area, automobile industry, and penicillin industry of this detachment have already shown their prominence. The chemical industry of Lao Ding's New Regiment is also very impressive. Next, we will go to the industrial area of his New Second Regiment.
.
How could the old brigade commander not understand Li Yunlong's thoughts? He smiled and scolded: "Li Yunlong, you are so stubborn that you want to take us to visit your new second regiment. We will go there in a while. If we find that your regiment's development is far inferior to that of the first regiment and the new first regiment."
Tuan, then we will laugh at you!"
Li Yunlong immediately patted his chest and assured: "That's not possible. The members of his first team and the new first regiment are both good things, and the ones in our new second regiment are not much different!"
As a result, the cars turned around one after another, and then followed the asphalt roads that had been paved between each other in the Iron Triangle, all the way from the New First Regiment to the New Second Regiment base area.
The leaders on the road couldn't help but sigh that the road was smooth and smooth, the vehicles were fast, and the connections and transportation between the iron triangle were really convenient.
At full speed, we can reach each other's base in less than half an hour.
No wonder in recent years, as the gateway to northwest Shanxi, the Iron Triangle, with the help of the cooperation of the three regiments, has been able to defeat the little devils with difficulty.
Soon, a group of visitors arrived at Li Yunlong’s New Second Group.
Li Yunlong happily joined Zhao Gang and rushed to the various industrial zones of the New Second Regiment with the visiting old comrades and leaders.
I'm not in a hurry to go to the industrial area.
Instead, we first visited a chicken farm and a duck farm.
When they arrived at the venue, everyone looked around and saw the plump chickens and ducks flying around in the venue, happily eating everywhere. When they saw everyone arriving, they looked at them furtively.
Captain Cheng of the 772nd Regiment was the first to sigh: "Old Li, Old Li, you are living the life of a rich man. How long will you have to eat these many chickens and ducks?"
Commander Xu of the 771st Regiment echoed: "That's right, this old Li is now extremely wealthy. I think our old comrade's visit this time is not in vain. I won't care about others when I leave. Old Li, you
Bring me five chickens and five ducks in a sack, and I'll take them back and give them to the political commissars to try!"
When the other regiment leaders heard that there was such a good thing, they also spoke one after another. Some wanted to take three or five, and some lions said loudly that if they didn't take twenty or thirty, they would rely on the new second regiment to leave.
.
This frightened Li Yunlong, and he quickly changed his expression and said:
"Don't, don't, don't! What are you doing? You don't look like old comrades here. They are clearly a group of bandits!
Let alone you, these chickens and ducks, we, Lao Li, are reluctant to eat, they are all for laying eggs!
The chickens and ducks that lay eggs have old meat and are not suitable for eating. They taste very bad!"
After hearing this, the commander-in-chief from Yan'an laughed and said: "I have long heard that our Comrade Li Yunlong never suffers losses. It turns out that he is still an iron rooster. This is nothing!"
Li Yunlong replied: "Leader, you don't know that these chickens and ducks are the public property of our new second regiment. They belong to the entire regiment, not to me, Li Yunlong.
If these were Li Yunlong's own chickens and ducks, I would give three or five to each of the comrades present.
You can’t call me, Li Yunlong, stingy!”
"Comrade Li Yunlong's consciousness is really good, but I wrongly blamed the good comrade! Okay, comrades, don't worry about Comrade Li Yunlong's chickens and ducks, let's continue to visit!"
Amid laughter, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang took everyone to visit Xinyi Regiment's production factories for grenades, landmines, aerial bombs, and mortars.
Looking at the already large-scale military production base of the New Second Regiment.
Old comrades-in-arms and leaders have been touched by this for a long time.
The days when we were short of guns and artillery and lacked a military-industrial foundation are finally gone forever.
Nowadays, the situation is getting better day by day. The military production base built by Li Yunlong's regiment can produce all kinds of equipment and weapons, which can fully supply the equipment needs of the new second regiment and surrounding regiments.
Then he was amazed at the various military products built by the New Second Regiment.
In particular, Kong Jie introduced the Soviet-made 82 mortar, 120 mortar, 160 mortar, and the US-made 107 mortar production line.
With the support of a team of alloy steel, these mortars can be put into trial production. Once the trial production is successful, more equipment and technology can be introduced for large-scale production.
At that time, perhaps as Li Yunlong said, "Every one of us in the regiment can fire a mortar. Then the war will not even require us to charge into battle. We will kill the little Japanese from a distance of several kilometers."
They all fucking died!"
Then, Li Yunlong proudly invited everyone to observe the new mortar test.
Li Yunlong divided all three types of 107, 120, and 160 mortars into five groups for testing. The first group was transported by horse, and then assembled and fired; the second group was transported by heavy motorcycles and replaced with wheeled gun mounts, and went to the test area to directly build artillery fortifications for shooting.
; The third group is transported by a special truck, and goes to the place to directly deploy the artillery and fire; the fourth group is assembled on the modified armored vehicle, and directly parked in the test area to fire with the assistance of the robotic arm; the fifth group is assembled before, using the M1 type provided by John
The self-propelled 75mm howitzer was tested on the tank site. This type of model was used in many Japanese tanks in the early stage and underwent modifications in this area. The experience is very mature.
With the help of the improved semi-automatic loading machine, the self-propelled mortar truck drove to the test area and parked. After aiming at the target area, it fired a few rounds in a short period of time and immediately evacuated, which took a very short time.
The last method of launching made the commander-in-chief, deputy commander-in-chief, and senior leaders look at each other for a long time.
This is a large-caliber mortar. Everyone has seen the Japanese Type 97 150 heavy mortar, but it has never been possible to reach the shooting area in a few minutes and evacuate immediately after firing a few rounds.
This method of attack is simply subversive.
Even Commander Fu slapped his thigh in amazement, calling this a revolutionary weapon!
Kong Jie said: "The military-industrial base of our Eighth Route Army is not as good as that of the Japanese Army, so the use of these large-caliber heavy artillery should also be different from the Japanese army's strategic and concentrated artillery strike method.
Using this kind of crawler-type light self-propelled artillery, you can just go away after firing, and you will never be sloppy, making the little devil unable to react at all.
This allows this large-caliber heavy artillery to fully utilize its mobility and the power of large-caliber artillery in the terrain environment of our base area.
We previously moved the 120mm howitzer and Type 97 150mm mortar to the old tank site, and the results were very good. The semi-automatic loading machine developed now is much better than the previous manual robot arm.
This is also due to the mass production of alloy steel, which has higher strength and stronger load-bearing capacity, so that a semi-automatic loader can be installed on a self-propelled mortar truck while reducing weight."
At this time, the old brigade commander, who was looking around with a telescope and thinking about what else he could find, suddenly discovered that there were several mortars with longer barrels and wider tracks. They were not self-propelled vehicles modified from the battlefield in 97
Take the mortar truck.

He asked: "Kong Jie, are you a self-propelled artillery modified from a US-made tank?"
Kong Jie said: "These are long-barrel 107,160 mortar trucks modified from the American M3 universal chassis. They also have auxiliary semi-automatic loaders. The difference is that they have lengthened the barrel and stretched the rifling. They have a longer range and higher accuracy. In addition,
The new sights are more convenient to use. These were modified and trialled by the US military and sent to the Pacific. Soviet observers were also very interested and were willing to trade the production line for modification plans and usage data."
As soon as these words came out.
Commander Fu and the generals of the Eighth Route Army couldn't wait to get on the bus and follow the test.
Commander Fu looked at the artillery truck and said directly to Li Yunlong and Kong Jie: "I am willing to take two hundred gold bars and a batch of Japanese tanks that have been captured and damaged over the years to dismantle the site. Can you help me transform a batch of these tanks?"
chariot to equip my military heavy artillery regiment?
Of course, if you have other conditions, I will try my best to meet them all!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the commanders in each base area were unwilling.
Who doesn’t like this good thing?
Isn’t it just to exchange something?
Your old man wants it, and we still want it!
As the saying goes, those who are near the water and the towers first get the moon. No matter what, it’s not your turn to be in front, right?
If the Japanese emperor can't get it, he can move whatever is available in the jurisdiction. Anyway, it all belongs to the Japanese, so he can just rob it.
Captain Cheng was even more anxious, wondering whether he should follow the example of Lao Wang who went to Licheng to rob banks, and go to other counties to rob banks and make some money.
Brigadier Yang even said: "Lao Kong, there is a lot of equipment in the Longyan Mining Area in Zhangjiakou. We have done a lot of preliminary work. Let's work together to grab a wave. How about you give me a batch of such artillery trucks first?"
