Rise from the sword

Chapter 456 Too fast!
"In about two months, all have reached the level of being able to go to the battlefield?"

"Still proficient?"

Hearing the head's request, Sun Desheng immediately turned into a bitter face, and flew up with his hands:

"Head, we are starting from nothing."

"More than 200 fighters participated in the training. Except for the dozen or so sent by their superiors, the most experienced fighters have only touched three jumps for a year. Many of them haven't even played with motorcycles yet."

"Driving a tank is several times more difficult than driving a ten-wheeled truck, let alone a five-man team that cooperates with each other and goes on the battlefield skillfully."

"In two months, this group of people is estimated to be barely able to form a formation and make routine tactical actions. Even the best car crew will be used as a fort at most on the battlefield."

Sun Desheng cried.

Two months is not enough time to train a cavalry.

He went on to say:

"Although Boss Chen gave the Germans the armored corps regulations, tutorials and specifications, and the recruit training manual, all translated into Chinese characters, but these things cannot be completely copied from others. The situation we face is different, so we have to write our own."

"No one in our regiment has touched this tank before, and we all have to figure it out by ourselves."

"There are also armored soldiers who have to know basic tank maintenance."

"Two months is not enough time."

Sun Desheng was sure that if a novice drove a tank and went to the battlefield, he might be blown up by the devil's death squad with explosives when he went out.Brainwashing the little devil Bushido is no joke.

Although the tank has a strong ability to pass through, the off-road environment is complex and changeable, crossing trenches, climbing big slopes... these all require long-term training to master.

Hearing what Sun Desheng said, Li Yunlong immediately rolled his eyes angrily, and cursed in a tone of hatred:
"What do you need for tank combat? To sum it up, it's driving, finding targets, aiming and firing, right?"

"Er... it's almost like this."

Sun Desheng was stunned for a moment, and wanted to refute that fighting with tanks was complicated, but after thinking about it, it really was just these three.

Whether it's fighting tanks, avoiding anti-aircraft artillery, cooperating with infantry to destroy enemy firepower points, covering one's own weak points on the battlefield, etc., to sum up, it is indeed these three.

Drive the tank, search for the enemy through the observation port or periscope, and then aim at the enemy and fire.

"But the leader."

Sun Desheng quickly added, emphasizing the two months:
"The requirements for tanks are very high. It will take at least four months to be proficient on the battlefield."

"Have you seen this transaction?"

Li Yunlong suddenly changed the topic.

"seen it already."

Although the business details are highly confidential, as a battalion commander, Sun Desheng naturally knows.

"What about this business!"

Li Datuan said:

"As long as we kill [-] devils, Boss Chen will reimburse you twice for all the weapons and ammunition consumed during the business. Do you know what this means?"

"I know."

Sun Desheng nodded, and said with emotion:
"Boss Chen is really generous with his shot this time. This time it's not about millions of bullets."

For a one-year business, the weapons and ammunition consumed by tens of thousands of people in the three regiments is not a small amount. Sun Desheng estimated in his heart that it would be tens of thousands of tons, or even more.

As he said that, Sun Desheng's tone froze, and he looked at the head of the group:

"what do you mean····"

He remembered the things that the team leader did when Boss Chen wanted to reimburse the bullets last time.

"Hey hey..."

"Correct!"

"Our consumption during training can also be reimbursed."

Li Yunlong was immediately satisfied, and raised his tone:
"Besides, this time is different from before. Not only do you get double reimbursement for all ammunition, but you also get double reimbursement for weapons and equipment. Tanks are also equipment, and fuel is also..."

"Yup!"

Sun Desheng's eyes lit up immediately.

In this way, maybe in two months, or a little more, those novice tank crews will be able to drive their tanks on the battlefield proficiently, the kind of smooth and easy driving.

"Hahaha····"

Seeing the subordinates who immediately understood after a little bit of dialing, Li Datuan was very satisfied, and he continued to exhort:

"Let go of your hands and feet to train."

"Train me hard, the tank protection measures are in place, the crew is not easy to be injured, even if they turn upside down, they will at most be stunned, train during the day and study at night, we don't have enough time, then start everything from actual combat and directly follow the rules of the battlefield. According to the standard, live ammunition is directly used for shooting training."

"There are enough oil shells, if not enough, I'll go get it from Brother Chen."

"In short, form combat power as soon as possible."

"The car is overturned and the car is damaged. Let the logistics team repair it and give them a chance to actually fight. I will let a master wait in the maintenance area at any time. If it doesn't work, there is another one who can support at any time."

"There will be more and more tanks in the future. What we lack is people, not equipment."

"Yes."

Sun Desheng saluted solemnly.

indeed.

In the training of tank drivers in foreign armies, considering the cost, they usually use decommissioned tanks to train the drivers first, or even dozens of people use one vehicle to train, and then step up step by step, and finally the combat tanks.

But on the side of the independent regiment, Boss Chen guarantees that they can go directly to combat tanks, and everything starts from actual combat.

Regardless of cost and consumption, as long as one can bear it, then train to death.

Inexperienced crew?

Then start with five hours of real car training every day, and drive a tank to run 150 kilometers in the field every day, which is [-] kilometers in two months. Definitely come out an iron tank driving master.

Those who participated in the training of tank soldiers were novices in driving tanks, but all of them were solid veterans. The minimum was more than one year of actual combat experience, with excellent physical fitness, strong mental will, and a good level of cultural knowledge.

During the training, by the way, more than 1000 rounds of live ammunition were shot, such as fixed targets, moving targets, long-range targets, and short-range targets, all of which were shot more than 100 times, and then put on the battlefield to hone and hone, and a proper elite tank crew.

And support staff.

Inexperienced, right? Then fix it as hard as you can. There are so many spare parts, and there are six spare parts for an engine with a total weight of one ton. If you repair a lot, you will naturally become proficient.

Anyway, if something goes wrong and you don't understand it, then go to the master.

"Go."

Li Yunlong waved his hand.

For the next month, fierce battles continued on the front line. There were at least a dozen battles every night.

And the back is not idle.

Whether it is day or night, the secret training ground is full of tanks buzzing. The training ground and the surrounding hillsides are full of track marks, and there is no track that has not been run over.

Over at the maintenance center, the broken tracks were piled up into a hill, and there was even a damaged turret with the barrel broken.

The machinery factory in the rear is also developing more and more rapidly. With the help of the master master, several cement kilns have been successfully built, and at the same time, an earth-made blast furnace has been successfully built. The independent group can finally make steel by itself, and the quality is not bad. The only downside is that the output is not high.

However, such a large-scale action, although the independent group kept it secret in many ways, still attracted the attention of the devils and the government.

······
at the same time.

772 regiments.

"It was a great battle."

After completing the support to the fringe base areas, Cheng Shifa led the team back to the station. On the way back, the battalion commander was always smiling:
"Machine guns are exciting."

After the logistics department gave 772 self-made Czech-style modifications, the number of machine guns in the 130 regiment directly exceeded 772, and as many as [-], coupled with sufficient ammunition and grenades, this anti-sweep, the [-] regiment let go , by luring the enemy to go deep, it took more than half a month to set up a plan to wipe out two full squadrons of devils in one fell swoop, and their own casualties were very small, only one-third of the devils.

For the 772 regiment, this is an unprecedented victory.

"This machine gun is really good."

Cheng Shifa looked at the self-produced machine gun carried by a soldier beside him.

The battalion commander nodded:
"Yeah, although it's not as good as what Li Yunlong got, it's much better than the one made by Jin and the one made by the government. Soldiers generally report that this gun has a relatively low failure rate and rarely jams."

"It seems that there is no effect without the cooling ring!"

"The only disadvantage is that the bipod structure is not good, the grip is not good, which affects the shooting accuracy, and the gun stock is also a bit problematic..."

The first battalion commander made a summary.

"Write a report and send it to Minister Zhang."

Cheng Shifa said.

'Yes. '

The battalion commander nodded.

······
A few days later.

Ping An County.

Yamamoto, who was looking at the map on the table, frowned, raised his head and looked at the intelligence officer in charge of the report, with a puzzled tone:
"tank?"

"Hi."

The intelligence officer bowed his head and said:
"The reconnaissance plane found a tank training ground in the central mountain area of ​​the independent regiment's base. There were a large number of tanks in training. Although the intelligence personnel could not approach, the high-altitude reconnaissance showed that the number was estimated to be more than [-]. The specific model could not be determined. The other party did it during the day. A certain amount of cover."

"Sure enough, tanks are provided."

There was not much tension in Yamamoto's tone.

The Independent Regiment had tanks, he had already thought of that.

There are ten large trucks and jeeps, and even the patrol boats of the Imperial Army appeared in the Huaihe Gold Incident. It is normal to provide some tanks.

But tanks that can shoot in mountainous areas must be very light, and the armor firepower will not be too strong, and the Eighth Route Army is seriously short of tankers. In just a few months, it is impossible to participate in the battle. Poor mobility was easily wiped out by the imperial army.

A tank is not as simple as a car plus an armor plate plus a cannon.

"Continue to investigate and do our best to investigate the tank model of the independent regiment."

Yamamoto continued to exhort.

The only regret he felt was that he couldn't use planes to bomb the tanks of the independent regiment. In the mountainous terrain, high-altitude bombing had no effect at all, and low altitudes would be shot down by the independent regiment's powerful anti-aircraft firepower.

"Hi."

The intelligence personnel bowed their heads and said yes.

After the intelligence personnel left, Yamamoto, who looked down at the map on the table, frowned deeply.

"Master Yamamoto, the casualties are more serious than we expected."

Shinji Kozuo on the side said the reason for Yamamoto's frown.

As the brutal battle progressed, the recruits of the imperial army in Ping'an County experienced the baptism of war and became more mature, with fewer casualties. But the problem is that the new soldiers of the independent regiment have also matured.

And there are more and more.

In the past, there were only more than 100 people in the position, and gradually increased to more than 200 people, and the overall strength has more than doubled.

The military expansion is too big.

Although these new arrivals were all new recruits, with the terrorist firepower of the independent regiment and the free use of shells, the casualties of the locust army increased instead.

During the battle for one month, the casualties exceeded 800 imperial troops, among which the number of Yu Sui reached more than [-]. Although most of Yu Sui were recruits, they were still low-quality recruits, but at this rate, the impact on future battle plans would be enormous.

Even if half a month later, a regiment of the Mongolian army arrives, it will still lead to a serious shortage of troops, and the follow-up plan cannot be implemented at all.

"Can't we ask the front army for help?"

Kozu Shinji asked unwillingly:

"The independent regiment is obviously getting stronger and stronger, and a large number of tanks have appeared."

For the locust army, more than [-] tanks are indeed a large number.

"There is also Li Yunlong. This person is obviously trying to train new recruits with actual combat. The opponent has enough soldiers. It is estimated that his total strength is no less than [-]. With such a huge force, once the opponent leaves the mountain area..."

Saying that, Shinji Kozuo shuddered suddenly.

Once this group of people came out, the Zhengtai Railway would be gone, and the severely weakened First Army would probably be gone too.

"wait."

After being silent for a while, Yamamoto spit out a word:

"I have already informed General Gangcun of this information."

A large number of tanks, continuous large-scale military expansion, sufficient weapons and ammunition, and more than [-] troops are trying to open the way to the plain area. He believes that this will definitely attract the attention of the front army.

······
Three five eight groups.

"Qian Bojun!"

Chu Yunfei's tone was murderous.

Obviously, Captain Chu is in a bad mood at this moment.

According to the evidence provided by the intelligence department, his confidant Qian Bojun was suspected of having contact with the Japanese, and even planned to lead his troops to surrender to the Japanese. Fortunately, the Independence Regiment beat the Japanese hard not long ago. He went all out to deal with the Independence Regiment, relaxed the military suppression on them, let Qian Bojun see clearly the devil's strong outside, and canceled his surrender plan.

"Tuan Zuo, this Qian Bojun..."

Aside, Fang Ligong said.

"Humph."

Chu Yunfei narrowed his eyes, thinking about how to deal with Qian Bojun.

Before he could speak, another staff officer came in suddenly:
"Tuan Zuo, Commander Yan's telegram."

Chu Yunfei took the telegram, looked at it, and frowned deeply again:

"The Taihang Mountain Arsenal of the Eighth Route Army was able to mass-produce Czech-style machine guns?"

It is not surprising that Chu Yunfei can produce machine guns, and even thinks it is a good thing, which can increase the attack on devils, but the problem is that it is too fast.

As far as he knew, the Eighth Route Army suffered heavy losses in the devil's sweep last year.

How long has it been?

It can actually mass-produce machine guns by itself.

The production difficulty of machine guns is several grades higher than that of rifles, and according to information, the monthly production is no less than [-] pieces.

At this rate, in another year, how far will this group of people develop?
　People are outside, in the car, code words on the mobile phone, and the water is mixed with full attendance.

　　Today's chapter doesn't count.

　　Come back the day after tomorrow, when there is a holiday, I will add another chapter.
