Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 94 Gun name, MG42!

The afternoon after Li Yunlong sent the telegram.

Lin Feng brought a large amount of weapons and ammunition to the vicinity of the new regiment’s base.

"Boss Li, congratulations on your prosperity!"

In a village near the New 1st Regiment’s base, Lin Feng met Li Yunlong, Zhong Zhicheng, and everyone from the New 1st Regiment’s headquarters.

Then Lin Feng raised his hand and bowed to Li Yunlong.

In order to keep the transaction secret, Lin Feng always chose to deliver and receive goods in the woods of the regiment headquarters.

One reason was to guard against the Japanese planes, and the other was to avoid being surrounded by too many people. Every time there was a transaction, Lin Feng would ask his entourage to be on guard.

"No, no, it's only thanks to Boss Lin that our new group can have a share of the spoils." Li Yunlong laughed heartily. "Boss Lin, where have you been making money lately?"

Lin Feng said, "It's just a small fortune, nothing compared to Boss Li."

"Boss Lin is being modest."

Li Yunlong had a continuous and increasingly intense smile on his face.

Make a small fortune?
You are the biggest financial backer of our New 1st Regiment and even the entire Eighth Route Army. You are a wealthy man, a local rich man, and a foreign tycoon.

"This is a list of weapons and ammunition that were not delivered during the last cooperation, as well as the balance due for this cooperation."

Lin Feng took out a list from his pocket and handed it to Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong took it and looked at the list, then looked at the woods behind Lin Feng that were full of weapons and ammunition, and a farmer's harvest-like smile immediately appeared on his face.

清单内容是：1000支带三零式刺刀的三八式步枪，180万各式口径子弹，30门M2式60毫米迫击炮，以及5个基数的60毫米炮弹。

After these battles, the New 1st Regiment still has a lot of grenades, but its bullets are almost gone.

In particular, there are not many 7.62mm submachine gun bullets and 7.92mm machine gun bullets left. If they are not replenished, the PPSh submachine guns and Czech light machine guns will become firewood.

"Isn't that four basic 60mm mortar shells?"

"Why are there five bases and one base is given as a gift?"

After reading the list, Li Yunlong was both happy and confused.

A 60mm mortar has a basic supply of 120 rounds of ammunition.

The basic number of shells for 30 60mm mortars is 3600!
Before this, the entire Eighth Route Army had less than 3600 artillery shells.

"Brother Yunlong, the other base number of artillery shells are training shells." Lin Feng said, "In addition to the mortar gun table, I also provided 15 pairs of eight-fold binoculars this time."

"Haha, isn't that a coincidence?" Li Yunlong smiled slightly. "Yesterday we wiped out the Japanese officer training team on the Zhengtai Highway and seized 190 binoculars."

Of the spoils seized from the Japanese officers yesterday, a portion was handed over to the brigade headquarters, and all the money went to the regiment headquarters.

Li Yunlong implemented a reward system based on merit. All officers above the rank of squad leader in the New 1st Regiment were equipped with a pair of Type 93 four-fold binoculars and a tortoise box. Military cadres who had made meritorious service were given a watch, and soldiers who had made meritorious service were also given a watch or a command knife as a reward.

Also.

Zhong Zhicheng took out some money from the New 1st Regiment and went to the city to buy food to improve the meals for all the soldiers.

After winning several battles in a row, the soldiers should enjoy themselves.

Almost every member of the regiment's staff was armed with a command saber, a box, a watch, and a pair of binoculars on their chests.

rich.

But Lin Feng looked at the telescopes hanging on the chests of Li Yunlong and everyone else, and wanted to say, "rubbish!"
But for the Eighth Route Army soldiers, even the Japanese's garbage Type 93 four-fold telescope was a rare and valuable item.

Lin Feng said, "This is an eight-fold telescope. Not only does it have a clear field of view, but more importantly, it has a scale that can be used to measure distance." "Oh?" Li Yunlong's expression changed, and he immediately became interested. "Brother Lin, can your telescope also measure distance?"

The Japanese telescope does not have this function, it only allows you to observe the scenery outside the field of view more clearly.

For novice artillerymen, the most difficult thing is to grasp the distance. A great gunner like Wang Chengzhu can measure the distance with just a thumbs-up, with an error of no more than 10 meters.

So in the wild, if someone gives you a thumbs-up, they may not be praising you, but targeting you.

Li Yunlong also knows how to measure distance with his thumb, but Wang Chengzhu is better at it.

If a telescope could measure distance, it would be like divine help for novice artillerymen, like a cheat!

Lin Feng waved his hand, and a burly follower took out a pair of binoculars from a box and handed them to Li Yunlong.

When Li Yunlong took the telescope in his hand, he felt its excellent texture, which was far superior to the Japanese telescope. It was definitely made by a top foreign manufacturer. It was not inferior to the original German Zeiss telescope, and even felt better.

Then Li Yunlong picked up the telescope and looked at the distant mountain. Looking at the view through the telescope, a look of surprise appeared on his face involuntarily.

The telescope in your hand has a clearer field of view and can see farther, which is very helpful for reconnaissance, observing terrain and enemy situations.

The biggest difference between this telescope and the Japanese telescope is that it has scales on it.

According to the method Lin Feng said, Li Yunlong quickly calculated that the distance from here to the opposite hill was about 1250 meters.

In order to verify the accuracy of the telescope's distance measurement, Li Yunlong turned to Wang Chengzhu and said, "Zhuzi, stop grinning like an idiot. Come and measure the distance from here to the big tree on the opposite hill."

"Yes, leader!"

Wang Chengzhu hurried over, raised his thumb, closed his left eye and started measuring the distance.

After a moment, Zhuzi reported, "Captain, the distance from here to the big tree on the opposite hill is about 1270 meters."

An error of 20 meters is normal. In combat, you just need to readjust the shooting parameters after a test firing based on the impact point.

"This telescope is damn useful."

Li Yunlong looked at the telescope in his hand, his expression and tone full of surprise. This thing is easy to operate and can be used as long as you know arithmetic.

With it, Li Yunlong no longer had to worry about the Eighth Route Army's novice artillerymen being unable to accurately calculate shooting parameters during battle.

"Thank you, Brother Lin!" The gratitude on Li Yunlong's face became more and more intense.

"Thank you, Boss Lin!"

"Thank you, Boss Lin!"

Zhong Zhicheng, Chen Ziyuan, Song Daying and others also expressed their gratitude.

Lin Feng said: "You fought bravely and killed the enemy, this is what you deserve."

"Oh, right, Brother Lin." Li Yunlong's expression changed, and his tone and eyes were full of anticipation. "In addition to the Japanese training team killed yesterday, the night before yesterday our regiment also attacked the Japanese field artillery position in Yangquan, blowing up one of the Japanese field artillery positions and killing about 800 to Japanese soldiers. Together with the Japanese killed yesterday, we killed about more Japanese soldiers."

"According to the terms of our cooperation, do you still have to pay us for a new regiment of 12 field guns and 80 rounds of ammunition?"

Lin Feng nodded. "That's what I call congratulations on your prosperity. However, the field artillery is too heavy for your Eighth Route Army at the moment, so we can only replace it with 12 Forbos mountain guns and 3 basic shells. But there are extra rewards."

Even the Japanese Type 75 1108mm field gun weighs 1897 kilograms, and the Italian gun (French M75 1160mm gun) is even heavier, weighing kilograms.

"No problem, what is the extra reward?" Li Yunlong nodded. In Li Yunlong's opinion, mountain artillery and field artillery are similar, both have a caliber of 75mm, and there are extra rewards.

"The reward is 12 general-purpose machine guns," Lin Feng said. "The guns are called MG42s, with a caliber of 7.92mm."
