After Liang Zhi came to the 300 Brigade, Su Rui realized how important an excellent chief of staff is to an army.
After Liang Zhi came to the 300 Brigade, it only took him a short week to manage the troops in an orderly manner. Whether it was formulating recruit training plans or exercises, there was no glitch in the troop combat plans. Sometimes Su Rui even I feel that these plans are rigorous and even a bit rigid.
But after Su Rui and Liang Zhi discussed this issue, Liang Zhi explained: "Sir, these plans may seem a bit rigid, but they are also formulated based on the situation of our army. To put it bluntly, the army is a combat machine. Only Only when everyone follows the steps can we achieve the goal better. In this regard, there is indeed a gap between us and those foreign devils."
"But there is no need to be so detailed. You can even calculate how many miles you march in a day, how much food you eat at each meal, and how many meters you run in each charge. This is too dogmatic." Su Rui muttered in confusion.
The corner of Liang Zhi's mouth moved, and he half-smiled, "As the art of war goes, Fu Miao can win, but if he doesn't, he won't win. A plan is better than no plan, what do you think?"
"Okay, Ziran, you are the chief of staff, you have the final say!"
Suri raised his hand. He had to admit that compared to Liang Zhi, he was only an amateur at best in this regard.
"But sir, I still have an important question to ask sir." Liang Zhi looked at Su Rui with a serious look in his eyes.
"Well, tell me!" Suri nodded.
"After I came to the 300 Brigade, I found that the weapons and equipment of the 300 Brigade were unexpectedly good. Not only did they have the latest German machine guns, submachine guns and mortars, but they also had the Garand rifle just developed by the United States. , pistols and other latest equipment have been installed in the troops.
This has to surprise me. I don’t want to ask where the brigade got these equipment, but what I want to know is whether these equipment can ensure the normal supply of our troops in the future and are used for the troops’ live-fire training these days. The consumption of bullets is too great, and the staff department is very worried about whether you can supply them for a long time, which is very important for our army's future training and combat plans."
After Liang Zhi arrived at the 300 Brigade, he was surprised to find that the equipment of this unit was surprisingly good. The ordinary infantrymen were equipped with a Garand rifle, and the sharpshooters were equipped with a 98K with a scope. Mauser rifles, the squad leader and deputy squad leader have an MP38 submachine gun, each squad also has an MG34 submachine gun, each platoon also has an M2 large-caliber machine gun, and each company is also equipped with two 60 mortars.
Is this still a Chinese army? I'm afraid even the armies of European countries are not so generous. Liang Zhi calculated that if equipped with such vitality, with the same strength, the 300 brigade can completely compete with one brigade of the Japanese army. When launching a counterattack, even though the soldiers of the 300 Brigade were not as good as the Japanese in terms of individual soldier quality, this flaw would not seem so important after using weapons to make up for it. After all, under the overwhelming rain of bullets, no matter how strong the individual soldier's quality was, they would not be able to show their full potential. It has too many effects.
What worries Liang Zhi is that the powerful vitality equipment will bring huge logistical pressure to the troops. If this style of play is followed, the ammunition consumption of the 300 Brigade in a day is more than that of an army of the Central Army. In this case But it is easy to overwhelm the fragile logistics line.
"You don't have to worry about this." Su Rui was already prepared for Liang Zhi's worries. He smiled and said to Liang Zhi: "I have my own arms supply channels, so you can rest assured about the supply of weapons and ammunition.
We will never cut off the supply of the troops. If you are worried, you can go and have a look with me later."
"Are there any more weapons and ammunition to be delivered today?" Liang Zhi's voice was full of surprise.
"Yes!" Su Rui nodded, with a strange smile on his face, "I have hired a new logistics director in the past few days, and he will escort a batch of supplies back later."
As soon as he said this, a voice came in: "Reporting to the host, sir, the supplies we need have arrived!"
Su Rui and Liang Zhi turned around and saw Li Yifeng walking in.
"Have our supplies arrived?" Liang Zhi nodded and said, "Just in time, let's teach Director Liu how to count the things and put them in the warehouse."
"yes……"
Li Yifeng agreed, but did not move his feet at all. This situation did not seem very strange in Liang Zhi's eyes, and he looked at him in surprise: "Captain Li, do you have anything else to do?"
"Liang Shenzuo, it's... there's something wrong. The person who brought the supplies for the Asian Games this time is not one of us, but... a foreigner."
"What...foreigners?"
Liang Zhi was stunned for a moment, looked at Su Rui again, and then thought of what Su Rui said just now, and asked tentatively: "Prince, is the newly hired director of the logistics department you mentioned just now the foreigner?"
"Yes." Suri smiled, "What's wrong with foreigners? Isn't it good to have foreigners work for us? Since Tabitha, a foreigner, can be the director of our brigade hospital, then hire another foreigner.
Why not come and be our logistics director?"
"This..." Even though Liang Zhi had been in Germany for several years and had been baptized by Western ideas, he was still a little surprised that a foreigner was inserted into the army, let alone a 'bumpkin' like Li Yifeng.
Seeing Liang Zhi's face that seemed unchanged for thousands of years couldn't help but twitch, Su Rui felt a little proud.
As the number of personnel in the 300 brigade increases, the demand for military supplies is also increasing. As the commander of the first brigade, Su Rui is no longer suitable for publicity and pulling supplies everywhere. But someone must do these shameful tasks.
So Suri then thought of finding a reliable person to manage his supplies.
At this time, Tabitha, who had served as chaplain and hospital director of the 300 Brigade, found Suri and asked Suri to do him a favor. It turned out that Tabitha had a nephew who couldn't make it in the United States. He heard that his uncle
He was doing well in China, so he scraped together a few things to buy a boat ticket to China, and sailed across the sea to China to join his uncle.
After more than a month of wandering, this guy somehow managed to find the 300 Brigade in this chaotic era and contacted Tabitha.
Tabitha was very happy to see her nephew arrive. However, she was a little embarrassed about how to arrange it for him. Finally, Tabitha found Suri and asked Suri to arrange a job for her nephew.
Tabitha's nephew's name is Smith. He is still very young, about twenty-four or five years old. When Suri saw Smith for the first time, he knew why Tabitha asked her for help, because this Smith was mute.
For a man with physical defects like him, most of the work in the army is really not suitable for him. After all, no matter what job he does, he always has to deal with people. When dealing with people, it is inevitable to communicate with them. Such a job can
A mute person cannot be promoted.
But when Suri saw Smith, she knew that this boy was the perfect logistics minister she was looking for. Is there anyone who can keep secrets better than the mute?
So, soon, young Smith began to take office. For convenience, Suri gave him the rank of major and ordered him to manage all the logistics in and out of the 300 Brigade.
Although Smith is mute, due to his Jewish nature, he still completed high school at a school for the disabled in the United States. These days, this academic qualification is more than enough for managing the logistics of the army.
Seeing the doubtful look in Liang Zhi's eyes, Su Rui smiled and said: "Let's go and see what good things our new logistics minister has brought us."
When Su Rui, Liang Zhi and Li Yifeng arrived at the logistics department, they found more than 20 trucks parked in front of the brigade headquarters. Hundreds of soldiers from the transport camp were busy unloading weapons and ammunition from the trucks. What made Liang the most
What surprised them was that there were six artillery pieces towed behind these trucks. Judging from their size, they must have been above 105 caliber.
Wang Dezi and hundreds of officers and soldiers from the artillery battalion were happily circling around these artillery pieces. Wang Dezi, especially, almost pressed his face against the cannons.
Next to them, a young major with blond hair and blue eyes, wearing a brand new Type 35 German Wehrmacht uniform, was standing aside, gesturing to direct the officers and soldiers to move things into the warehouse.
"The hotel has arrived!"
As a sharp-eyed officer shouted, a group of officers and soldiers all straightened up and stood at attention, even the blond Smith was no exception.
Su Rui and his party walked to the center of the crowd. Liang Zhi walked to a 105-caliber howitzer, stroked the cold barrel and exclaimed: "What a great cannon. Are these American goods?"
"Reporting to Mr. Liang, these are M1-type 105mm howitzers produced in the United States." Wang Dezi replied proudly.
"OK!"
Liang Zhi said with great satisfaction: "These six 105mm howitzers, plus the previous twelve 75mm caliber mountain guns and those mortars, you, the artillery battalion commander, are better than many of the national army."
The commanders of artillery regiments are all very wealthy!"
Wang Dezi replied proudly: "That's right, we don't have anything to do with the bus. Except for the planes in the sky and the warships in the sea, we have all the other gadgets that the little devils have."
Su Rui on the side couldn't help but touch his nose and smile bitterly, and murmured in his mind: "To be honest, I do have a plane, but if you take it out, someone needs to be able to fly it. And if you really show off the plane now, wait...
My guess is that it’s Chairman Chiang’s “careful care”!”
However, seeing the excitement of the soldiers around him, Suri was still happy for them.
While everyone was smiling happily, a staff officer trotted over and said loudly: "Report, urgent message from the theater commander's department!"
