Anti-Japanese War: I have unlimited assistance

Chapter 96: Forming a special forces team!

Li Yunlong remembers the various firearms data of the New 1st Regiment very clearly.

The theoretical firing rate of the Czech light machine gun equipped by the new regiment is 500 rounds per minute.

But this is only a theoretical rate of fire after all, because the Czech magazine can only hold 20 machine gun bullets at most. If you want to shoot faster, you must change the magazine frequently.

While the machine gunner was firing, he also had to assign soldiers to reload bullets into the magazine.

In addition, the Maxim heavy machine gun equipped by the new regiment uses a 250-round belt-fed ammunition feed, and the maximum firing rate can reach 500 to 600 rounds.

The firepower sustainability is much stronger than the Czech type.

But the biggest problem with this Maxim is that it is a bit heavy. The gun body, protective shield and base weigh 45.2 kilograms.

Since this Maxim is water-cooled, after adding water to the gun during combat, the weight is about 100 pounds.

Of course, the Maxim with wheels is much more maneuverable than the Maxim without wheels, allowing soldiers to move positions more quickly during battle.

However, compared with the MG42, the Maxim is much inferior in terms of mobility and rate of fire.

Compared with the Maxim, the biggest advantage of this thing is its light weight, which allows for the rapid transfer of machine gun positions during battle; it has a fast rate of fire and strong firepower, which can easily suppress the Japanese infantry and their light and heavy machine gun positions, making them unable to raise their heads.

However, a gun cannot have all advantages without disadvantages. For the Eighth Route Army, its biggest disadvantage is that it consumes too many bullets.

Li Yunlong, who had calmed down carefully, expressed his concerns to Lin Feng.

High-rate-of-fire machine guns that use belt-fed ammunition have strong firepower, strong firepower sustainability, and good accuracy, but they are inevitably accompanied by a very high ammunition consumption.

Although it is difficult for a general-purpose machine gun to fire 1500 rounds of bullets per minute in combat.

But even if a machine gun fires 500 rounds of bullets a minute, 12 MG42s firing together will fire 6000 rounds of bullets a minute.

This puts a lot of pressure on the logistics of the new regiment.

"That's indeed a problem." Lin Feng nodded. "So, the reward for this cooperation is more than just these 12 MG42 general-purpose machine guns."

"Oh?"

"Are there any bonuses for 7.92mm ammunition?"

Captain Li looked expectantly. If Boss Lin could provide 100 million rounds of 7.92mm machine gun bullets, that would be enough to build 12 general-purpose machine guns.

Lin Feng said with a slight smile.

"That's right, but there's more than just ammunition as a reward. These 12 general-purpose machine guns are equipped with 12 rounds of machine gun ammunition."

"You can ask me to reimburse the ammunition consumed by these 12 general-purpose machine guns on the battlefield in the future, but only if you win the battle."

"This is the reward for our cooperation in fighting the Japanese invaders and succeeding five times."

At present, the MG42 is not suitable for large-scale equipment of the entire Eighth Route Army. It is only suitable for equipping the new st Regiment, and the ammunition has to be reimbursed.

This thing consumes too much bullets and tests logistics. If you want to unleash its power, you must have bullets, a lot of bullets, and strong logistics.

But theoretically speaking, the reimbursement of ammunition this time means that Li Yunlong has obtained 12 general-purpose machine guns and unlimited ammunition for these 12 general-purpose machine guns.

"Thank you so much, Brother Lin!"

Li Yunlong's eyes suddenly lit up. Is there such a good thing? If so, then the machine gunners of the new regiment can almost open fire at full power.

Zhong Zhicheng, Zhang Dabiao and others standing by also immediately showed expressions of surprise on their faces.

Lin Feng continued.

"Considering that your group has just fought a few battles and needs some time to rest and replenish, there will be no cooperation during this meeting."

"But I have to give you some information. The Japanese Kuroshima Cavalry Regiment will soon be heading from Peking to Pingding and Xiyang to investigate the whereabouts of your Eighth Route Army."

"Brother Lin, do you have any specific information about the march of the Black Island Cavalry Regiment?" Li Yunlong narrowed his eyes, and a murderous look flashed in his eyes.

Now there are light and heavy machine guns, submachine guns and 12 general-purpose machine guns, with nearly 200 firepower points and hundreds of thousands of rounds of ammunition.

If he had any information about the Black Island Cavalry Regiment's march, Captain Li would have killed the bastard halfway. "No."

Lin Feng shook his head:

"I'm just giving you Eighth Route Army a heads-up. Those operating in Pingding and Xiyang should be careful. If you encounter Japanese cavalry, it will be difficult to escape."

"Okay. I'll report this to my superiors when I get back."

Li Yunlong licked his lips, and a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

Although the new regiment's machine gun firepower is now powerful, Li Yunlong still has a special liking for cavalry and always thinks that when he becomes rich in the future, he will set up a cavalry unit.

At present, the New 1st Regiment has seized dozens of Japanese horses from the Japanese. These Japanese horses are very good, but there are only dozens of them, which is not enough to form a cavalry company.

In the eyes of Captain Li, what are these Japanese cavalrymen doing here? They are here to deliver military horses to us, Old Li.

But how to defeat this Japanese cavalry unit requires time and effort, and there is no need to rush.

Immediately afterwards, Li Yunlong took the initiative to report to Lin Feng about his study progress, including how many new words he had learned recently and his research on military theory books.

"Yes, Brother Yunlong has a talent for learning. Keep up the hard work." Lin Feng said with a smile.

He didn't want Li Yunlong to make a huge improvement in his cultural knowledge and military theoretical knowledge in a short period of time. This was unrealistic. What he wanted was a learning attitude.

"Hehe..." Li Yunlong chuckled, his tone confident, "It can't be helped. After all, I, Old Li, was born to study."

With Boss Lin's encouragement, Li Yunlong became more motivated to study and gained some confidence:
"To be honest, Brother Lin, I was actually a pretty good student when I was little. My dad said that even if we died of poverty, he would still let me study. The whole family saved money to send me to a private school. Unfortunately, I only studied for three years before the famine hit. We couldn't even get enough to eat, so how could we afford to study? I only learned the Three Character Classic and the Hundred Family Names. Before I joined the army, I knew nothing and my mind was a mess. It was only after I joined the Red Army that my mind suddenly opened up and I became smarter."

In order to quickly improve cultural level, we have greater cooperation with Boss Lin.

I applied to the headquarters for a college student to teach me personally. I wonder if the headquarters has made the arrangements?
"very nice."

Seeing that Li Yunlong spoke in a clear and coherent manner, Lin Feng temporarily recognized Li Yunlong's learning ability:

"Brother Yunlong, although we didn't cooperate this time, I have to give you a task. There will be a reward after completing it."

"Brother Lin, what's the mission?"

When he heard the word "reward", Li Yunlong rubbed his hands and immediately became interested.

Lin Feng said, "The mission is to form a new special forces unit for your regiment. As for the reward, I will tell you after your special forces unit is formed and passes the inspection. The price is very attractive."

"Haha, okay."

In fact, Li Yunlong has been preparing to form a special forces unit. He has asked the brigade commander for some top soldiers. Although the top soldiers have not yet reported to the new regiment, the brigade commander has already agreed to his request.

However, there were rewards for forming a special forces unit, which Li Yunlong had not expected.

In addition, Li Yunlong already had a candidate in mind for the captain of the special forces, who was a tough and ruthless man.

Of course, it is not enough to just form a special forces unit. It must also pass Boss Lin’s assessment. Li Yunlong has no objection to this.

The so-called assessment.

After Li Yunlong's special forces were formed and trained, he completed the cooperation given by Boss Lin.

"This is the detailed information I've specially collected about the names of people with the potential to be special forces kings. Whether you can find them and have them join your group depends on you."

Lin Feng took a stack of intelligence information from a bodyguard and handed it to Li Yunlong:
"These are not my people."

In order to prevent Li Yunlong from thinking too much, Lin Feng added another sentence.

Li Yunlong's eyes lit up, and he took the personnel information from Lin Feng and started to read it. It read: Lu Yingjun, Sun Desheng, Yang Changshun, Duan Peng...

These personnel data are very detailed, including not only their place of origin and age, but also their biography and special skills. Some are skilled in martial arts, some are excellent horsemen, and some are sharpshooters...

The only thing they have in common is that these people are not currently members of the Eighth Route Army.
