Rise from the sword

Chapter 523 Li Yunlong's big plan!
Inside the regiment headquarters of Ping'an County.

Li Yunlong propped his hands on the table, smiled and said:

"The three-company infantry battalion is equipped with a battalion artillery company equipped with six 120mm mortars, equipped with 350 large mules to enhance mobility, and has a total number of 1800 people."

"Although in future wars, the role of purely light infantry on the battlefield will become less and less, but considering that our combat area is mountainous, I plan to organize [-] infantry battalions for this reorganization."

Hearing Li Yunlong's words, all the people in the meeting nodded in agreement, and no one objected.

Sixty battalions, that is, 8000 people, is a very easy number. The total number of construction brigades is now close to seven figures starting with two. Infantry training is the simplest. There is no need to worry about weapons. The big mules are also open to supply. As long as there are enough officers and cadres, they can be organized immediately.

Then, Li Yunlong raised his tone and said:

"Artillery is the soul of the infantry and the guts of the army. Therefore, I plan to form [-] artillery battalions."

"Each artillery battalion is equipped with 54 artillery pieces, of which twenty battalions are equipped with new 125 howitzers, five battalions are equipped with 105 howitzers, two battalions are equipped with 105 mountain guns, one battalion is equipped with 160 mortars, and the remaining two battalions are equipped with 240 heavy artillery Mortar."

When the artillery plan was released, everyone's expressions changed, but they quickly returned to normal.

Each battalion has 54 artillery pieces, 500 battalions, that is more than [-] artillery pieces, that is, more than [-] artillery groups are needed. At present, Zhao Jiayu's artillery groups are sufficient. Although some artillery groups are inexperienced, a few more Once in actual combat, there will be no problem.

Among the 105 artillery pieces, the smallest caliber is the 105 mountain cannon, which can be towed by a big mule, but the 125 howitzer, 160 howitzer, 240 mortar, and most [-] mortars all need tractors to follow the troops. The artillery shell transport vehicle needs to be equipped with about [-] trucks.

No problem.

Enough troop drivers, enough trucks.

"Tank Battalion."

"Three companies, 54 tanks per battalion"

"Tanks, with strong mobility, strong defense and powerful firepower, are the real kings of land warfare."

Speaking of this, Captain Li smiled more and more freely:

"So, I'm going to form twenty."

After the voice fell, everyone slightly opened their eyes wide.

Obviously, the number of tank battalions exceeded everyone's expectations.

But everyone thought about it, 54 tank battalions, each with [-] tanks, that is, [-] tanks, not many, now the Zhaojiayu base has more than [-] tanks.

The only problem is the tank group.

Up to now, that is, at the end of April, there are only 430 qualified tank groups, and only eight tank battalions can be formed, but this is already the fastest training speed.

but it does not matter.

They have plenty of time. Even if the tank business is over, calculated in August, the supplies left at that time will be enough for a long, long time, and even the entire army will be able to use it for several years.

If it ends in September, there will be [-] million tons of fuel oil alone...
"Flying Brigade."

Li Yunlong continued:
"Without air supremacy, tanks and artillery will not be able to exert their strength, so our flying brigade must also be strong."

"Considering the difficulty of training pilots, I plan to form ten aviation brigades, each equipped with 54 fighter jets, including five in the attack aircraft brigade and five in the fighter brigade."

The reorganization plan of the whole group will be completed by the end of the year.

The crowd nodded.

Five hundred and fourteen planes require 540 pilots, who can be trained within one year, so there is no big problem.

Now the Zhaojiayu base area is very attractive to talents, especially after doing business with Americans, [-] large mules were transported to the European battlefield through the border area, Xi'an, and the return channel for foreign talents was opened, and a steady stream of talents returned home.

Most of those who can choose to come back now are talents who have the heart of serving the country and want to contribute to the country.

"Advanced and powerful weapons have a greater demand for logistics supplies, so we need to form [-] logistics transportation battalions, each equipped with [-] ten-wheel trucks or half-track transport vehicles, according to mission requirements Convert."

Li Yunlong finally asked:
"Do you have anything to add?"

"It's a good plan."

Kong Jie was the first to speak:

"Without affecting the development and construction of the base area, we can completely complete the reorganization of the whole regiment within this year."

"Just do what Lao Li said."

Ding Wei also spoke:

"Within this year, we will complete this army expansion plan. By then, we will have a total force of 30. We will wipe out the First Army and swallow up the Mongolian Army without any difficulty. The devils in the Northeast can also be swallowed by other troops. Lose."

Using the 772 regiment as a template, the refitting plans of other units are also in full swing.And because there are sufficient materials, sufficient weapons and equipment, and the number of expansions, it is planned to form 50 new regiments within this year, plus other troops, with a total strength of more than [-].

At that time, with the independent regiment as the core, nearly a million troops will march east | north...
It is estimated that the foundation of industrialization can be initially completed and a complete industrial system will be formed.

"Hey hey..."

Li Yunlong glanced at Ding Wei and smiled happily.

His final plan is to go east|north and swallow the so-called flower of the imperial army completely.

"However, this plan not only requires a strong army, but also requires the cooperation of a brigade."

Li Yunlong then looked at Zhao Gang.

The army has not moved, and the food and grass go first.

The devil's imperial army is not weak, with more than 50 troops, a solid defense system built over more than ten years, complete with aircraft and tanks.

To swallow this so-called flower of the imperial army in one gulp, the army must exert its strongest team strength, that is, it must provide sufficient logistical supplies, unlimited shells, and unlimited supply of fuel.

Otherwise, for every [-] devils who run away, it means the loss of a super-large factory.

blood loss.

The problem is that in the vicinity of Zhaojiayu, because of the short transportation distance, unlimited supply of materials can be achieved, but once the distance is too far, it is difficult for even the SJZ to do so, let alone the Imperial Army's Flower Station.

The farther the distance, the more difficult the transportation. Calculated by Bai Wan's army, a complete double-track railway is needed to ensure logistics supplies, as well as a large number of locomotives and carriages.

"no problem."

Zhao Gang smiled and said:

"The iron and steel plant has started production. Not only can it produce qualified steel rails, but it can also manufacture locomotives and carriages. The output is very good. It is expected."

The iron and steel plant with an annual output of 150 million tons, although there is a serious shortage of qualified workers, but with the coordination of the top technical force brought by fifty masters, the steel plant has started to operate.

Advanced supporting rolling mills, stamping equipment and other facilities can directly mass-produce locomotives and carriages. After mobilizing the workers trained by the machinery factory over the past year, the output is not bad. The output of pure locomotives and carriages can compete with the little devil. Arm wrestling.

This is despite a severe shortage of workers.

"it is good."

"That's settled then."

Li Yunlong slapped the table for the last time:
"During the reorganization, we have to swallow the Shanxi First Army and the Mongolian Army by the way before July."

"It will start in the middle of next month, which is the middle of May."

"Yes."

Everyone should be.

Only by killing the Shanxi First Army can the tank business continue until August.

"It is said that the North China Front Army is attacking Central Henan, right?"

Li Yunlong asked suddenly.

"Correct."

Zhang Dabiao nodded:

"Although we sent planes to support them, and used more than [-] guerrillas to attack the devil's supply line, and even some of them participated in frontal battles, the fruit-preserved troops in central Henan were too useless to stop the devil's attack at all."

"It is estimated that there will be a little more than a month before the devils will completely open up the Beijing-Han line."

"One month."

Li Yunlong nodded, looked at the map on the table, stroked his chin, lost in thought.

Seeing this scene, everyone's eyes lit up.

In this way, are you planning to intervene after the devils have just occupied Yuzhong?
······
Time flies in the Great War.

Beginning of May.

At this time, the battle in central Henan was still in full swing.

Under the command of Gangcun Ningci, the North China Front Army attacked with all its strength along the Beijing-Hanzhou line, pushing hard all the way.

But it was accompanied by huge casualties. With the support of the independent regiment's flying brigade, the attacking devil troops lost at least one full brigade every day, and sometimes even two brigades.

By May [-]th, when the devil's forward troops approached Yancheng, the devil's offensive was no longer as good as before.

Although a large number of recruits were added, the loss of 5000 people, the same number of injuries, and the destruction of a large number of supply units still made it difficult for the attacking devils.

the same day.

Jincheng Airport is summarizing:

"From April 21 to today, excluding the weather that is not suitable for attacking, we have fought for a total of 100 days, dispatched a total of [-] sorties, dropped [-] tons of bombs, and fired [-] million rounds of cannon shells."

"good."

Huang Quan nodded in satisfaction.

This data made him very satisfied.

All the pilots who participated in the meeting at this time were honored. This is the result of their joint efforts.

"but."

The staff officer continued:

"We lost a total of 150 fighter planes, including 75 combat losses, 76 non-combat losses, 16 pilots sacrificed, and 25 missing."

"Among the missing pilots, 21 were rescued."

"Ah."

Huang Quan's tone was very calm.

For 20 sorties, only [-] people were sacrificed, and the loss rate was [-] per thousand. For a novice flying brigade, it was very good.

The loss rate is so low. On the one hand, the bomb truck is powerful, with thicker armor and solid leather. The devil's cannon can fly smoothly after being hit by a dozen rounds.

Another reason is the speed. Although there is no high-altitude pressurization equipment, after dropping the bomb, the low-altitude flight is faster than the Devil fighter, which can completely accelerate the escape from the devil's attack.

Of course, the most important thing is that some old pilots drive fighter jets to escort the attack fleet.

·····
Yancheng area.

Looking at the situation on the map, Chu Yunfei finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, Fang Ligong beside him also said:
"After fifteen days of fighting, the devil's attack has obviously declined, and the offensive strength is not as good as before. Obviously, the devil's power has been almost consumed."

"Although there are still more than [-] devils gathering outside Yancheng, their logistical supplies were blown up by planes and destroyed by guerrillas, making them unable to launch an attack."

"However, we cannot launch a counterattack."

Finally, Fang Ligong sighed.

During this period of time, the [-]th Regiment fought very comfortably, with aircraft support in the sky all the time.

When you encounter a difficult bone, you call the plane, and a few heavy aerial bombs come down, and all problems are solved.Encountering a surprise soldier from the devils, they called the plane, and a dozen heavy aerial bombs went down, and a devil brigade had to retreat.

In his life, he has never fought such a rich battle.

But on the whole, the army as a whole is still in a situation of defeat and retreat. The devil's offensive is crushing, and the defense line is broken one after another, because the defenders on the Beijing-Han line are really stretching their hips.

Continuing to fight like this, in the end the Beijing-Hanzhou line must be the solution to the collapse, and they will do more to contain it for a period of time.

"Hey···"

Chu Yunfei suddenly let out a long sigh.

······
Simultaneously.

Great Empire.

A conference room.

Several military officers and politicians were discussing a matter. The map on the table was a map of Asia, and the center was the southernmost part of the Republic of China, a port near the sea. The tone of a group of people was very angry.

"That bald head dares to touch the territory of the empire."

An officer was swearing.

As the former empire where the sun never sets, the sun has already set, and the glory of the ancestors is long gone, and now they are being beaten everywhere.

In Europe, being beaten up by Germans, in Asia, being beaten up by little devils, and even the property left over from the time when the sun never set, some people began to think about it.

"It is absolutely impossible to give it to them. That is the territory of the empire on which the sun never sets. We must defend it. We cannot give up any piece of territory."

An officer slammed down a sentence.

Everyone glanced at this guy and rolled their eyes.

What's the point of talking harshly here?
This matter has nothing to do with their empire or the Republic of China. It mainly depends on the position of the Americans.

Whoever the Americans support is theirs.

After all, where is it still in the hands of the Japanese now!
Neither the Empire on which the sun never sets nor the Republic of China has the ability to drive away the Japanese. They have to take it back by themselves, and the Americans have to snatch it back. When the time comes, they will give it to whoever they say.

"You don't need to be nervous about this matter."

A government official in a suit said:

"After all, we must rely on strength to speak."

"The opponent has been weak for a long time, and the national strength is weak. Now the Japanese are launching an offensive. It is said that the troops of the Republic of China have suffered a crushing defeat and lost a large area of ​​territory. The Americans seem very dissatisfied."

"As long as there are no accidents, it will be ours in the end."

Finally, he patted the table with a smile on his face and a confident tone:
"Although we are not as good as before, it is not something that a weak country without basic industrial capabilities can compete with."

"Correct."

An officer suddenly beamed with joy.

　Look carefully at the initial outline.

　　Read the book from the author's point of view.

　　emmmmm.

　　I made a big mistake.

　　In order to make the writing more exciting, I temporarily changed the outline and forcibly expanded the golden finger. The plot was distorted, and the points of view before and after were completely different, almost equal to two books. . .

　　Well, watch out for the next book.

　　This book continues to be hi.
