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

Afterwards, Su Zheng had lunch with the brigade commander.

The boss was not in the camp, so we did not have dinner together.

After lunch, Su Zheng took the brigade commander to visit the Xinzhongcun base.

At this time, the Xinzhongcun base became more lively and prosperous due to the surge in the flow of people.

As more people come to the Xinzhongcun base, more people from all walks of life will emerge.

Only when a place is crowded and bustling will various industries be born and business circles and industries will be formed.

This is also the reason why Su Zheng attracted a large number of ordinary people and refugees to the Xinzhongcun base.

The brigade commander and Su Zheng were walking on the road in Xinzhong Village. Seeing the people coming and going, he couldn't help but sigh: "Su Zheng, there are really a lot of people in your base. It's very lively!"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Yes...many ordinary people and refugees have nowhere to go so they come to our base!"

"It's better to have more people... Only with more people can we develop rapidly."

Brigade Commander: "Well... indeed... the more prosperous the base, the more solid the foundation of your troops."

"It is very important to develop a good mass base. This is the foundation and purpose of our Eighth Route Army."

Su Zheng: "I understand this... So the relationship between our independent battalion and the common people has always been very good."

The brigade commander nodded and said, "I see."

Along the way, many ordinary people greeted Su Zheng enthusiastically.

This can't be faked.

From this we can see that Su Zheng has the support and support of the people.

This is very rare.

"Hello, Brother Su Zheng!"

"Captain Su, are you free to come to our house for dinner?"

"Captain Su, have you eaten?"

"Captain Su, long time no see!"

"Captain Su, you look handsome again. Shall I introduce my daughter to you?"

............

Along the way, men, women, young and old were all greeting Su Zheng enthusiastically.

The brigade commander saw this.

Those who were able to know Su Zheng and greet him warmly were the earliest group of ordinary people in the base.

The brigade commander looked at Su Zheng and saw how he was supported by the people. He nodded and said, "Su Zheng, that's right. No wonder your independent battalion has grown so strong. It turns out that you have a good mass base!"

Su Zheng smiled and said, "It's okay."

As the two chatted and laughed, they arrived at the independent camp training base behind the village.

At this time, the total strength of the independent battalion was less than two thousand.

We are still expanding and recruiting new soldiers.

There are more new recruits.

The training ground naturally became lively.

After Su Zheng arrived at the training ground, he explained to the brigade commander: "Brigade commander, this is basically the main force of our independent battalion!"

"Because there are quite a lot of new recruits recently, they are all seizing the opportunity to train."

The brigade commander looked around at the companies and teams of the independent battalion that were training, and nodded slightly: "Su Zheng... although your battalion is called a battalion, the number of troops is conservatively estimated to be more than a thousand, right? That's more than a main regiment!"

A dead skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Although the independent battalion lost more than 3,600 people in the Jinlie battle, it still has more than 1,000 troops.

In addition, there has been continuous conscription in recent days.

Now, if the independent battalion is fully counted, the total strength has exceeded two thousand people.

The response speed is very fast.

Su Zheng: "Brigade Commander, to be honest, my independent battalion has about 2,000 people."

Brigade Commander: "I heard that your independent battalion had a total strength of more than 5,000 soldiers before the battle of Xinzhong Village?"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Well... at that time, because the publicity reports about me spread across the country for the first time, there were many people who came to join the army!"

"The highest number of people signing up for the army on a single day exceeded a thousand, and we expanded almost a whole regiment in one day!"

Hiss hiss hiss...

Although the brigade commander did not witness the grand occasion with his own eyes, he couldn't help but take a breath when he heard Su Zheng say this.

Good guys... expand one regiment a day.

It’s really cruel!

The brigade commander was stunned, with an expression of indescribable surprise on his face, and said: "Hey fellow... Su Zheng, the troops under your command as a battalion commander are almost catching up with me as a brigade commander, hahaha!"

"By the way, how many companies do you have in this independent battalion? There are so many soldiers!"

Su Zheng: "At present, our independent battalion has several main infantry units, including the first company, second company, third company, elite company, Sichuan Army company and independent battalion!"

"Secondly, we also have artillery and cavalry companies."

"Finally, there are the special forces directly under the regiment, the special forces company, the reconnaissance company, the Dragon Soul Special Forces, the Ghost Team, etc.!"

Skynet Intelligence Agency is gradually.

Su Zheng did not confess everything to the brigade commander.

The brigade commander nodded: "Hmm...it seems that your independent battalion is really huge. A battalion has a total of ten companies, big and small, not counting other troops!"

"It is indeed a strong army... Good, the development is really good."

The two of them walked and talked.

Soon, the brigade commander noticed the weapons used by the elite company in training and said, "Su Zheng. Is this your elite company?"

"I have seen this army before during the battle of Lijiapo."

"But what weapons are these troops using? Not the Springfield rifles from before?"

It was the elite company that was responsible for the Battle of Lijiaopo.

At that time, the brigade commander was amazed by the American equipment.

But now it seems that the equipment of the independent battalion has changed again.

They have all been replaced.

It can be said that the Battle of Lijiaopo was the beginning of the independent battalion's rise to fame.

After ambushing the 4th Brigade and the Japanese Battlefield Observation Group, the reputation of the independent battalion was officially established and it became a heroic anti-Japanese unit.

In this defense battle of Xinzhongcun, the 9th Brigade and the 4th Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Army were completely wiped out, which officially laid the foundation of their reputation and foundation, and no one could shake it.

The independent camp also grew step by step.

Su Zheng: "Brigade Commander, you have a good eye... This is the elite company!"

"The American-equipped Springfield rifle has been replaced by the Second Infantry Company. The weapon used by the elite company now is called the M1 Garand rifle, which is a semi-automatic rifle!"

· ···Request flowers··· 0

"In terms of power, performance, and advancement, the Springfield rifle is superior."

The brigade commander's face showed a trace of surprise. He was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Su Zheng, your independent battalion is really rich!"

"There are still many troops in our Eighth Route Army that can't even get a single gun. Your troops have upgraded their equipment several times, and it's advanced American equipment. You're really amazing!"

The brigade commander had always heard that the independent battalion was very rich.

But I have never seen the wealth of the independent camp.

Now I can see it.

Su Zheng: "There is no other way... In order to improve the combat effectiveness of the troops, we can only update the equipment while focusing on training."

The brigade commander nodded.

The strength of a unit is inseparable from its equipment.

The independent battalion has developed to the present... every soldier was recruited by Su Zheng himself, without relying on the headquarters or superiors for every soldier, gun, or supply, so the brigade commander admires Su Zheng very much.

M1 Garand rifle!

M134 Gatling gun!

....... ... 0

These advanced rifles and heavy machine guns were an eye-opener for the brigade commander.

The brigade commander had never seen these equipments before.

In addition, the training methods, techniques and intensity of the infantry were something the brigade commander had never seen before.

Brigade Commander Chen really gained a lot of experience this time.

After checking the infantry training of the independent battalion, the brigade commander couldn't help but sigh and said, "Captain Su, I didn't expect that the equipment of your independent battalion is really advanced!"

"I feel like Granny Liu entering the Grand View Garden. I am truly impressed by the powerful equipment of your independent battalion!"

Su Zheng smiled and said, "Actually... our independent battalion has not yet replaced all its equipment with American equipment such as the M1 Garand rifle!"

"If the entire battalion is equipped with M1 Garand rifles, our battalion's combat effectiveness will definitely be improved to a higher level."

Brigade Commander: "That's true...but your independent battalion is already very strong!"

As the two chatted, they soon arrived at the artillery company's training area.

In this defense of Xinzhong Village, the artillery company suffered the least losses.

Because the artillery company is mainly responsible for long-range firepower attacks and does not need to use the more dangerous cannon bayonet tactics, there are naturally fewer casualties in combat.

And in the defense of Xinzhongcun, the independent battalion also developed a killer weapon, the RPG-7!

Whether it was the artillery soldiers of the artillery company or other infantry soldiers, they all saw the power of the RPG-7 rocket launcher.

One shot can basically destroy a tank.

A true tank killer!

It's really too strong.

In addition, in this battle to defend our hearts.

The power of the M2A1 105 caliber howitzer was also demonstrated, successfully destroying the Japanese artillery regiment's position.

Therefore, now that the artillerymen of the artillery company have witnessed the power of the M2A1 105-caliber howitzer and the RPG-7, they are suddenly more confident.

Once the artillery comes out, who can compete?

At this time, Yang Zhihua was leading the artillery company in training.

The brigade commander was stunned when he saw the artillery company's artillery. He stared at Su Zheng and said, "Su Zheng... you are really rich. You have so many artillery pieces..."

The entire Eighth Route Army was in dire need of artillery.

There are very few artillery pieces that can be put on the table.

But now, Brigade Commander Chen saw various types of artillery with larger calibers than each other in the independent battalion.

Mortars, Type 2 infantry guns, Italian guns, an M1A105 7-caliber howitzer, an RPG- rocket launcher... These weapons really opened the eyes of Brigade Commander Chen.

He didn't know the M2A1 105-caliber howitzer and the RPG-7 rocket...but he knew the other artillery pieces.

That’s quite a lot!

In order to enable artillerymen to master firing skills as quickly as possible, artillery companies have always used real artillery for teaching.
