Li Yunlong arranged for a jeep to take Ding Wei and Kong Jie to the back mountain shooting range to visit the heavy artillery of the new regiment.
Looking at the exquisite 10mm howitzers in the tunnel, full of technology and ruthlessness.
Ding Wei and Kong Jie were so envious that they almost drooled.
You can tell from the first glance that this thing is very powerful.
"Lao Li, will your heavy artillery battalion be dispatched to attack the 36th Division this time?" Ding Wei asked.
"Of course!" Li Yunlong touched the barrel and said, "If we don't take it out and fire a few shots, these big guys will get rusty."
"Then when are you going to take action?" Ding Wei asked again.
"The time is two days later." Li Yunlong looked away from the gun barrel and said, "Before the attack, a combat meeting will be held. The preparations for the battle have been completed."
Kong Jie asked curiously: "The brigade headquarters sent me a telegram half a month ago, why are you launching the campaign now? You don't know, the flowers I have been waiting for are almost withered. During this period, the whole regiment has been eating every day."
It’s dry food. You eat the dry food before frying it, and then eat it after frying. I ate dry food for more than half a month.”
"Don't worry, we're on Lao Li's territory."
Li Yunlong smiled and said: "Not only do you two have good food and drink, but your subordinates also need to have good food. I have already made arrangements and prepared white flour, rice, and canned meat for your soldiers."
"That's pretty much it!"
Kong Jie nodded with satisfaction after hearing this.
Li Yunlong added: "The reason why I waited half a month to invite you here is because I have to do a business first."
When they heard the word business, Ding Wei and Kong Jie immediately raised their ears, showing extremely interested expressions on their faces.
Nowadays, Xinyi Tuan has such a large scale and wealth, all of which are earned from doing business with Boss Chen.
Li Yunlong then told Ding Wei and Kong Jie the price of selling 100 thickened gun towers and bunkers.
This once again aroused the envy of Ding Wei and Kong Jie.
If one thickened bunker and bunker is removed at each end, it will be 10 machine guns. If 100 are removed, it will be 1,000 machine guns.
Of course, the machine gun mentioned here is a unit of measurement, and it can also be replaced by bazooka, 8mm mortar, flamethrower and other equipment.
In addition, the helmets of all commanders and fighters of the new regiment will also be reimbursed.
At a certain moment, both Ding Wei and Kong Jie wanted to become Li Yunlong's subordinates.
The price of this business is so good that you can't even find it with a lantern in China. Only Li Yunlong has such luck.
"The price is very tempting, but the newly built bunkers and turrets built by the Japanese are probably not that easy to dispose of, right?"
Kong Jie looked at Li Yunlong and said with a worried tone.
The price of dismantling a masonry turret and blockhouse is 1 machine gun. The price of dismantling an ordinary reinforced concrete blockhouse and turret is 1 machine gun. The price of dismantling a thickened and reinforced reinforced concrete turret is twice that of dismantling an ordinary reinforced concrete bunker and turret.
, but the difficulty of removing thickened and reinforced bunkers and gun towers will inevitably increase several times.
As the difficulty increases, more ammunition will be consumed and more soldiers will be sacrificed.
"Isn't this simple?"
"Lao Li now has 19 10mm howitzers. Wouldn't it be a piece of cake to remove the thickened and reinforced reinforced concrete turrets and bunkers?"
Ding Wei pursed his lips towards the giant steel beast beside him, his tone not worried at all, but rather filled with a hint of expectation.
How does it feel to use a 10mm howitzer to hit Japanese bunkers and turrets?
Ding Wei didn't know what the experience was like, but he wanted to see it.
Li Yunlong sounded confident: "In addition to heavy artillery, we, Mr. Li, also have a secret weapon that is specially designed to deal with the enemy's bunkers and gun towers."
In the past half month, Li Yunlong and the soldiers of the new regiment have not been idle.
The key subjects of troop training are gun towers and bunkers, as well as how to fight street battles.
The reason why our army becomes stronger as we fight, apart from the support of the common people, is that it is good at learning war in war, fully develops military democracy, learns from the strengths of others, and follows what is good.
Dozens of hundreds of training on attacking bunkers and gun towers, as well as training on street fighting, made the soldiers more skilled in tactical coordination.
"What secret weapon?" Kong Jie asked curiously.
After laughing, Li Yunlong gave up and said: "You will know when the time comes."
the next day.
Li Yunlong held a combat meeting at the regiment headquarters of Zhaojiayu Village.
In addition to the battalion commanders of the New Regiment, Ding Wei and Kong Jie also participated in the combat meeting.
At the combat meeting, regimental leader Li Yunlong analyzed the battle situation and explained the conditions for victory of the Eighth Route Army.
Political Commissar Zhao Gang conducted in-depth political mobilization, focusing on explaining why this war was fought and how to fight it well.
Li Yunlong made specific troop deployment: after the main force of the new regiment removed the bunkers and artillery towers outside the city, they surrounded Heyuan County and launched a fierce offensive, that is, the encirclement point.
Ding Wei led the troops from the 6th Division of the New 2nd Regiment and the 1st New Regiment, and about 000 people occupied Guangou and laid an ambush. Kong Jie led the troops from the 7th Division of the Independent Regiment and the 1st New Regiment, and about 000 people occupied Ono Village and laid an ambush, that is,
Call for aid.
Troops from the fourth and fifth divisions of the New Regiment blocked Japanese reinforcements from the north and south lines respectively.
The first division cooperates with the siege of Heyuan County, and the second and third divisions serve as the general reserve team.
After Ding Wei and Kong Jie successfully launched reinforcements, they took advantage of the situation to attack Ping'an County and Anhua County.
The meeting emphasized: This battle is the first major battle of the new regiment after arriving in northwest Shanxi. As long as they win, they must not lose. As long as they win this battle, everyone will make a fortune.
…
The day after the meeting.
All the members of the new regiment came out in full force.
Back mountain shooting range.
The acting battalion commander of the heavy artillery battalion, Yao Shangwen, looked serious and ordered loudly: "Send my order and open the tunnel!"
Yao Shangwen was one of the last batch of four battalion-level officers sent by the headquarters.
A graduate of the sixth artillery department in Huangpu, he was a deputy artillery battalion commander under General Zhang Zizhong. Later he joined the Eighth Route Army, joined the Communist Party of China, and soon became the artillery company commander.
Later, he was transferred to the 19th Division Battalion School as an artillery teacher, specializing in training artillery.
But after Li Yunlong asked for help from the headquarters, the headquarters thought twice about transferring him to a new regiment.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Training artillery is important, but the development of a new regiment is even more important.
Li Yunlong saw that he was an artillery talent, so he temporarily let him serve as the battalion commander of the heavy artillery battalion. He would decide whether to become a full-time officer based on Yao Shangwen's performance in the future.
This kind of gun is a 10mm howitzer. Yao Shangwu fired several training rounds when he was in the army.
That was a 10mm heavy artillery gun of the same type that Japan got from Germany, and it was Principal Chang’s treasure.
However, although they are the same type of heavy artillery, the guns equipped by the ** did not have muzzle brakes, while the new regiment's guns have muzzle brakes.
The function of the muzzle brake is to reduce the impulse of the gunpowder gas energy on the recoil part of the gun during the aftereffect period, so as to reduce the recoil length and the force acting on the gun mount. In this case, the gun mount can be made lighter and the gun
The mobility will also be improved.
Under his order, the artillerymen of the heavy artillery battalion turned on the switches one after another.
Accompanied by the sound of metal, all the secret artillery positions hidden under the cliff were activated, and the heavy iron doors disguised as rocks slowly opened.
A 10mm artillery piece full of technology and ruthlessness slid along the track towards the entrance of the tunnel, and the barrel extended out of the entrance of the tunnel.
After the entire body of the 10mm howitzer slid out of the tunnel, a few military horses were used to rotate the body of the gun 180 degrees, and the car soldiers reversed and connected to the howitzer's hook.
Then, the artillery squad soldiers responsible for operating the gun jumped on the truck. The truck was already loaded with shell boxes, and each box contained a 10 mm caliber artillery shell.
The car soldier stepped on the accelerator, and the car started slowly, dragging the heavy artillery down the mountain.
Yao Shangwu looked at the watch in his hand, his expression still serious: "Move faster!"
Under Yao Shangwu's order, all 19 10mm howitzers were towed away by trucks, and he also got on the co-pilot of a truck.
On the road from Zhaojiayu Village to Dagu Town.
Jeeps and cars were driving in the middle of the road, flanked on both sides by a new group of main soldiers with steel helmets on their heads. The soldiers were running with high morale and carrying guns.
Behind each truck is towed a cannon, either a 10mm howitzer, a 7mm mountain gun or a 10mm howitzer.
The soldiers looked at the trucks and the cannons towed behind the trucks, and their morale became even higher.
With such powerful artillery fire support, fighting such a battle is exciting and refreshing!
Through intelligence, Li Yunlong had learned that the flying squadron of the Japanese First Army had not yet been reorganized, so he dared to pull the artillery onto the road and march unscrupulously during the day.
The flying team of the First Army was severely damaged by the New Regiment several times. In the Battle of Taiyuan, the Japanese 3rd Flying Division was also severely damaged.
In the past two months, Japanese planes have come to northwestern Shanxi for reconnaissance, but they are very few.
Dagu Town.
First Battalion Headquarters.
Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang, Wang Dehou and Xing Zhiguo arrived in Dagu Town by car ahead of the rest of the group.
Li Yunlong and four others walked into the battalion headquarters. Zhang Dabiao, who was wearing a steel helmet, hurriedly greeted him and saluted with a military salute: "Report, the first battalion is ready for battle. Please give instructions from the regiment commander!"
Li Yunlong said: "As soon as the large army arrives, set off immediately!"
Zhang Dabiao straightened up: "Yes!"
Also accompanying the regiment headquarters was the communications team. As soon as they arrived at Dagu Town, the communications team set up the antenna and was ready to send and receive telegrams at any time.
Soon, a telegram was handed to Wang Dehou. After reading it, Wang Dehou said to Li Yunlong: "The regiment leader, Duan Peng, the leader of the Lijian Squadron, sent a telegram. He has found the phone line buried by the Japanese in the ground. He asked for permission if
shear?"
The Japanese built two telephone lines, connected one with a telephone pole and buried the other in the ground.
However, the Sharp Sword Squadron took action, captured the tongue of a Japanese prisoner, and after interrogating him for a confession, they quickly found out the telephone line buried in the ground.
As long as the light and dark telephone lines are cut, the Japanese in the bunkers and gun towers will not be able to ask for help from the county.
Li Yunlong raised his wrist, looked at his watch, and said in a leisurely tone: "No rush, wait three hours before cutting off the phone line."
Three hours later it was time for the new regiment to launch a general attack on the Japanese blockade.
First remove the thickened and reinforced Japanese bunkers and gun towers, then remove the ordinary reinforced concrete bunkers and gun towers near the county seat, and then you can surround Heyuan County!
