Anti-Japanese War: Developing on my own, I brought back a US-equipped division

A standard division has about 10000 to 12000 men.

If it is the main division, the number of people will be relatively larger, that is, about 15,000 people.

Now Su Zheng has voluntarily surrendered 10,000 Type 38 rifles and Type 99 light machine guns... This is enough to equip an entire division.

The equipment of a division...this is definitely not small.

When the equipment of this division is handed over to the headquarters, it will definitely shock the Eighth Route Army headquarters.

After all, no troop has ever handed over all the equipment of a senior officer at once!

A division!

It’s not a small number like a few hundred guns!

The Eighth Route Army Headquarters was shocked and surprised... This is also normal. ...

After surrendering the equipment of a division, Su Zheng now has various weapons and equipment that can equip more than 20,000 people.

It's enough!

Totally enough.

So Su Zheng still kept a lot of foundation.

Su Zheng smiled and said, "Hahahaha... As long as the boss doesn't mind that the weapons and equipment handed over by our independent battalion are backward, hahaha!"

The boss was in a good mood and said with a smile: "Su Zheng... you really are a full man who doesn't know the hunger of a hungry man."

"Type 38 rifles, Type 99 light machine guns... these may be considered equipment with relatively poor performance for your independent battalion, but for other units of our army, they are definitely advanced equipment with excellent performance!"

"You said...what else can I adjust? Hahaha!"

The boss was of course very happy that an entire division's equipment was surrendered.

The important thing is... this can improve the equipment of the Eighth Route Army and enhance the combat effectiveness of the troops.

Su Zheng: "That's it!"

"Boss... Don't worry, once our battalion is fully equipped with American equipment, I will definitely hand over those Type 92 heavy machine guns, Type 92 infantry guns, mortars... to the headquarters."

"If we wait until the production capacity of our arsenal increases, and we provide our brother troops with M1 Garand rifles or Gatling machine guns... that won't be a problem!"

The boss was stunned for a moment, then said with anticipation: "Okay, okay... Then I'll wait for that day to come, haha!"

Now the independent battalion has not been fully equipped with equipment, and the arsenal's production capacity has not been fully increased... Su Zheng must first meet the needs of the independent battalion.

The boss understands this very well.

At this time, the soldiers and logistics personnel of the independent battalion were busy cleaning up the battlefield.

Except for a small amount of equipment of the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army that was damaged, and the artillery regiment's artillery being destroyed, all other equipment and logistical supplies fell into the hands of the independent battalion.

The independent battalion also seized three radio stations.

Radio… This is an important communication tool for long-distance communication in this era.

According to the goal of Su-3.0, each company will be equipped with a radio, which will facilitate communication between troops.

Clean up the battlefield!

Count the loot!

The number is really quite a lot.

The boss was also very happy when he saw the weapons and equipment seized by the independent battalion.

Rich as hell...Perhaps this is why the Independence Camp is so rich.

Most of the independent battalion’s current weapons, equipment and ammunition were captured from the Japanese.

Only a small number of them were produced by their own arsenal.

Therefore, the independent battalion can be so rich...rich to the point of overflowing with wealth...that's because the independent battalion fought many beautiful and victorious battles.

These rich weapons and equipment were obtained through battle after battle.

In other words... this is the Independence Camp that's rich.

Looking at these dazzling array of weapons and equipment, the boss couldn't help but sighed and said, "Su Zheng, you have seized a lot of weapons and equipment and supplies in this battle. You are rich again."

During these days at the base, Lao finally experienced firsthand what it meant to be extremely rich.

For example, the independent camp is extremely rich...

Chapter 316: Lijun won a great victory! Is the combat effectiveness of a battalion comparable to that of an army? (More updates, please subscribe)

The independent camp is really rich... This is a very important feeling that the boss has in the Xinzhongcun base!

Strong logistical support, advanced arsenals, sufficient weapons and ammunition, guarantees of food, drink, defecation and urination... these are all manifestations of the independent battalion's strength and wealth.

Not to mention anything else...the independent battalion's artillery company fired more than ten tons of artillery shells in this operation.

More than ten tons!

Not a dozen!

With such a large number of artillery shells, looking at the entire Eighth Route Army, perhaps only Su Zheng’s independent battalion could fire so many artillery shells!

So rich!

Really rich!

The boss was envious when he saw it!

Su Zheng looked at the jealous boss and smiled, "Boss, isn't our independent battalion part of the Eighth Route Army?"

"I believe that our Eighth Route Army will become stronger and richer!"

The boss nodded and said, "Yeah...I think so too."

Count the seized supplies and equipment.

Dealing with the dead and wounded warriors.

Emergency repair of fortifications.

Subsequent vigilance and arrangements.

The entire independent camp was busy at this time.

The independent battalion suffered heavy losses in the defense of Xinzhong Village.

However, the military achievements and influence it brought were also great.

More than 12,000 Japanese and puppet troops were annihilated, and four Japanese and puppet army generals were killed... These are all great military achievements!

A great victory that was enough to shock and alarm the entire country.

On the other hand, the independent battalion completely wiped out the invading enemy's 9th Brigade and 4th Mixed Brigade, which deterred the Japanese and puppet troops to a great extent.

This made the Japanese and puppet troops no longer dare to easily arrange troops to encircle and suppress the independent battalion and sweep the Xinzhongcun base.

In this way...this can ensure that the Xinzhongcun base will be stable and peaceful for a certain period of time.

　13 Create a space and time for peaceful development.

Furthermore, the independent battalion successively wiped out the 4th Brigade and the 9th Brigade...which caused heavy losses to the main forces of Yoshio Shinozuka's First Army.

Even if Yoshio Shinozuka wanted to organize an effective mopping-up operation, he would not be able to do so in the short term... after all, the main force suffered heavy losses.

Therefore, the battle fought by the independent battalion was very crucial.

At the same time, the experience of the Xinzhong Village Defense Battle greatly inspired the soldiers of the independent battalion, boosted their morale and fighting spirit, and made the independent battalion more cohesive.

After all, it was before the battle to defend Shin-Nakamura began.

Many soldiers of the independent battalion felt that as long as they could defend the Xinzhongcun base and repel the enemy's encirclement and suppression attacks, it would be a great victory.

You have to know that this time they were facing the elite 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army. The total strength of the Japanese and puppet troops reached more than 12,000 people.

Although the independent battalion has more than 5,000 people...most of them are new recruits, so the pressure is still very high.

However, what the soldiers of the independent battalion never expected was that under the leadership and command of Su Zheng, they not only defended the Xinzhongcun base, but also completely wiped out the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade.

This was beyond the expectations of most soldiers.

Under such circumstances, the soldiers of the independent battalion were naturally greatly encouraged, and their morale and fighting spirit were greatly improved.

Many soldiers finally experienced the joy of following Su Zheng to fight the Japanese!

Fighting the Japanese like this...is really fun.

On the other hand, after the defense battle of Xinzhong Village, Su Zheng's position in the hearts of the soldiers and the people was further established.

Originally, Su Zheng enjoyed a very high status in the eyes of the local people in Xinzhong Village and the soldiers of the independent battalion.

After all, Xinzhong Village was developed by Su Zheng, and the Independent Camp was established by Su Zheng.

However, after the defense battle of Xinzhong Village, the soldiers of the independent battalion felt even more that Su Zheng was very powerful.

If it weren't for Su Zheng's leadership, the Xinzhongcun base would not be defended.

Not to mention the complete annihilation of more than 10,000 Japanese and puppet troops.

Therefore, after this battle, Su Zheng officially established himself as the absolute leader and commander of the Independent Battalion, and became the spiritual leader and soul figure of the Independent Battalion!

A true soul figure!

At the same time, the soldiers in the independent battalion trusted Su Zheng more.

This is an unconditional trust!

Unconditional trust in Commander Su Zheng!

Because the soldiers knew that only by unconditionally trusting Su Zheng could they accomplish the impossible task.

They believe in Su Zheng's ability.

The battle to defend Xinzhongcun is a good example.

Relying on only over 5,000 people, the independent battalion not only defended the Xinzhongcun base, but also prevented the Xinzhongcun base from being swept and destroyed.

At the same time, under the leadership and command of Su Zheng, the independent battalion also wiped out the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade.

Completed this almost impossible task.

Such a result shocked the boss.

When everyone in the independent camp trusts Su Zheng unconditionally, the cohesion of the independent camp will become very strong and everyone will be united!

In this case...how could the combat effectiveness of the troops not be strong?

On the other hand, the people of the Xinzhongcun base were even more supportive of Su Zheng.

Because the people in the Xinzhongcun base area knew it very well.

If it weren't for Su Zheng and the independent battalion, the Xinzhongcun base would have suffered a devastating disaster.

They finally found a place to settle down in these chaotic times...and it's about to be destroyed again.

This is not the situation they want to see.

After the battle to defend Xinzhong Village, the common people even more regard Su Zheng as their patron saint!

The guardian of the Shin-Nakamura base!

They also knew that without Su Zheng and the independent battalion, there would be no paradise-like base.

In this way, the people of Xinzhong Village will be more supportive of Su Zheng and the Independent Camp.

The mass base of Su Zhenghe's independent camp has become more solid and firm.

This brings many benefits...it is more conducive to the development of independent camps.

Therefore, Su Zheng ordered a counterattack to annihilate the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade...this brought considerable benefits.

Su Zheng also thought deeply and finally made the following decision: even if it means casualties and costs, the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army must be completely wiped out!

This decision is not wrong!

Quite wise!

The wisdom and strategic vision contained therein are truly beyond our reach.
