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

But Shen Quan is different.

Shen Quan is more impulsive and has a tough personality.

When you are in a hurry, you can do anything.

Therefore, when facing the enemy's encirclement and mopping-up operations, Shen Quan had several head-on clashes with the Japanese and puppet troops. Naturally, the casualties of the Second Battalion were much greater than those of the Third Battalion.

Shen Quan was unconvinced and said, "Your Third Battalion did bring back more soldiers than our Second Battalion, but our Second Battalion killed more enemies than your Third Battalion. You can't deny that, right?"

If you are stubborn and tough, you will naturally kill more enemies.

At the same time, there were also many casualties among themselves.

Li Yunlong looked at Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao bickering and said unhappily, "Stop arguing. Hold back your energy and let it out when you meet the Japanese!"

In fact, Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao were unwilling to admit defeat and were competing with each other... Li Yunlong was quite satisfied with this.

After all, in Li Yunlong's view, if a unit wants to develop rapidly and become stronger, it must compete with each other so that it can gradually become stronger.

If every battalion lies down and acts like a rotten loser, then the new regiment will be ruined.

It is precisely because of the spirit of not admitting defeat that the new group will become stronger and stronger.

Xing Zhiguo checked the time and said, "Zhang Dabiao's battalion should have returned by now, so why haven't we seen any of them yet?"

As soon as the voice fell, the guard walked in quickly and said, "Report to the regiment commander, the commander of the first battalion, Zhang Dabiao, is back!"

Is Zhang Dabiao back (with Zhao Qian)?

Li Yunlong's face lit up with joy, and he quickly said, "Quick, get that kid Zhang Dabiao to come over and see me!"

"Yes!"

The guard responded and went down.

Li Yunlong still admires Zhang Dabiao very much.

Zhang Dabiao's identity and background are not simple. He was originally a platoon leader of the Big Knife Team under Song Zheyuan. He fought bravely and participated in the famous and extremely brutal Battle of Xifengkou.

Later, Zhang Dabiao learned that his mother was not in good condition, so he deserted the army and went back to find his mother. However, he never expected that his mother and the villagers in her village were raided by the Japanese and all died. So the angry Zhang Dabiao joined the Eighth Route Army and joined Li Yunlong's New 1st Regiment.

It has to be said that Zhang Dabiao is a fierce general.

Great martial arts skills!

Fight bravely!

Tireless!

Not afraid of sacrifice!

Possessing the iron-blooded soldier's temperament of not caring about life and death and overwhelming everything!

Li Yunlong was very optimistic about Zhang Dabiao, but he didn't know how Zhang Dabiao's first battalion was developing.

After a while, Zhang Dabiao came to Li Yunlong, raised his head and saluted, "Report to the commander, Zhang Dabiao, the commander of the 1st Battalion of the New 1st Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, is leading all the soldiers of the 1st Battalion back to the New 1st Regiment. Please give your instructions!"

Chapter 397 Li Yunlong's shock: There are too many people! Will he become a division commander? (Second update, please subscribe)

Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Dabiao, grinned and said, "Hahaha... Zhang Dabiao, you... I haven't seen you for half a year, and you've become a lot stronger, taller and stronger... It seems like you've spent these three months quite well."

Zhang Dabiao smiled and said, "Captain, that's not right... it's still the same as eating one meal and then going hungry for three!"

To be honest, if Su Zheng had not appeared in the New 1st Regiment, Zhang Dabiao would definitely be the most powerful general of the New 1st Regiment.

Li Yunlong is also very optimistic about Zhang Dabiao, a powerful general.

Now Su Zheng's independent battalion is rising strongly, which makes Zhang Dabiao seem a little dim.

But we have to deny that Zhang Dabiao is a fierce general.

Li Yunlong grinned and looked at Zhang Dabiao and said, "Zhang Dabiao, stop talking nonsense and tell me...how many people have your battalion expanded in the past six months."

When the New 1st Regiment broke up into smaller units and developed independently, Zhang Dabiao's battalion took the most people with it, with a total of more than one hundred soldiers.

Now let’s take a look at Zhang Dabiao’s development in the past six months.

Zhang Dabiao grinned and said, "Hehehe... not many, Commander. I only brought back 2113 people from the first battalion this time!"

"At the same time, our entire battalion has a total of 2320 rifles of various types, 35 light machine guns, 15 heavy machine guns, 10 mortars, five Type infantry guns, and two mountain guns!"

"Captain, let me tell you...if you can gather our battalion a few days later, I can bring you more than 2,000 soldiers!"

"When you arranged for the messenger to convey the order for the whole regiment to assemble yesterday, our first battalion had just fought an ambush. We were rushing back to assemble the whole regiment. All the prisoners of war were released, and there was no way to reorganize these puppet troops and traitors."

When Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao heard Zhang Dabiao's report on the situation of the first battalion, their eyes lit up.

They didn't expect that Zhang Dabiao's 780th Battalion would develop so rapidly.

There are actually more than 1,800 people.

Moreover, there are quite a few light and heavy machine guns, and the most important ones are light and heavy machine guns, mortars, Type 92 infantry guns, and most importantly, mountain guns.

This is definitely rich.

The strength of one battalion is already as much as that of a regiment!

Xing Zhiguo: "Oh my goodness...more than 2,000 people, Zhang Dabiao, your First Battalion has developed quite well, hahahaha!"

More than 2,000 people in a battalion really surprised Xing Zhiguo.

Hearing this, Li Yunlong was overjoyed and said, "Hahaha... Not bad, Zhang Dabiao, you didn't let me down. The First Battalion has developed quite well and is extremely wealthy, hahaha!"

Xing Zhiguo also smiled and said, "Yes, Zhang Dabiao, you have been doing pretty well in the past six months."

Zhang Dabiao grinned and said, "It's OK... Our business is developing fairly well."

Among the three battalions, the First Battalion, the Second Battalion and the Third Battalion, Zhang Dabiao's First Battalion developed the best.

Li Yunlong: "Zhang Dabiao, don't be so modest here... Your First Battalion is indeed rich, not bad!"

"Tell me about the battle situation and status of your First Battalion in the past six months. Let's see if your First Battalion is only concerned with developing its troops and running away when it sees the Japanese. Then bring back a ragtag group of people for me."

Zhang Dabiao: "Captain... How is this possible? The combat effectiveness of our first battalion is still quite good."

Afterwards, Zhang Dabiao briefly recounted the results of some battles that the First Battalion had fought in the past six months.

I have to say that the first battalion performed very well.

Various battles were fought on a large scale and many victories and military achievements were achieved.

During the past six months, the First Battalion has won many battles, but also suffered some defeats, so naturally there will be casualties and sacrifices.

There will inevitably be casualties in war.

This is inevitable.

The casualties of the first battalion were relatively heavy.

If the soldiers who died were included, the total number of the first battalion exceeded three thousand.

This means that during these six months, the First Battalion suffered more than a thousand casualties.

After listening to Zhang Dabiao's report, Li Yunlong nodded and said, "Well... not bad, Zhang Dabiao, your First Battalion has performed well in the past six months."

"The achievements and development of your First Battalion are worthy of recognition."

Shen Quan looked at Zhang Dabiao and said, "Old Zhang, long time no see! I really didn't expect... your battalion has grown so large and brought back nearly 2,000 soldiers!"

Wang Huaibao also exclaimed: "Yes, your First Battalion has developed really well!"

Zhang Dabiao got the card. Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao were very friendly and said, "Old Wang, Old Shen, you both live well, hahaha!"

My old comrade, it is not easy to live in these troubled times.

Li Yunlong looked at Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao and said, "First Battalion Commander, Second Battalion Commander, Third Battalion Commander, let's go... go check out your troops and equipment!"

According to the total number of troops reported by the First Battalion, the Second Battalion, and the Third Battalion, the total number exceeded four thousand.

A standard infantry battalion has 500 men.

So according to the current strength of the New 1st Regiment, it has a total of eight battalions.

Powerful!

This does not include the American-equipped division of the independent battalion!

Li Yunlong, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Xing Zhiguo, Wang Huaibao and others arrived at the entrance of the village and saw many fully armed Eighth Route Army soldiers at the entrance.

These are soldiers from the 1st, 2nd and 3rd battalions, a total of more than 4,000 people.

A total of eight battalions of troops!

In addition, in front of these battalions were placed Type 92 heavy machine guns, Type 92 light machine guns, mortars, mountain cannons, Type 92 infantry guns, etc.

The variety of equipment is really dazzling and spectacular.

Zhang Dabiao looked at the Italian artillery of the Second Battalion, grinned and said, "Old Shen, what kind of artillery is that?"

Shen Quan grinned and said, "It's shabby... sorry to make fun of it. This is an Italian cannon captured when we attacked the Xiaocaozhuang stronghold. It's covered with foreign codes!"

"It's just that there are fewer shells, only a dozen or so!"

Zhang Dabiao: "Sure, Lao Shen, we even have Italian cannons, we are doing well!"

Shen Quan looked at the cannons of the first battalion and said, "Old Zhang, you are doing pretty well... You are extremely rich. Look at the caliber of your two cannons, they are not small!"

Zhang Dabiao grinned and said proudly: "Hey... This is the Japanese's Type 99 105mm mountain cannon. It's barely okay!"

The Type 99 105mm mountain gun has the characteristics of light weight and detachable transportation, which can greatly enhance the power of mountain guns in mountain warfare.

The Japanese Type 99 mountain cannon was finalized in 1939.

The Anti-Japanese War during this period began to enter a stalemate phase. The Japanese devils were unable to occupy China with overwhelming force, and they fought hard with the anti-Japanese forces, and were stuck in the quagmire of war.

In order to end the war as quickly as possible, the Japanese began to develop more advanced and more powerful weapons, and thus the Type 99 105mm mountain cannon came into being.

99式105毫米山炮的炮口径为105毫米，炮管长1.3米，射程是7500米，战斗全重却只有800公斤。

It can be said that the Type 99 105mm mountain gun has many advantages, such as long range, great power, light weight, easy disassembly and assembly, etc. It can be used for mountain warfare with complex terrain.

Among them, the 99-type 105mm mountain gun uses several types of shells, including explosive shells, fragmentation grenades, thermite incendiary shells, chemical shells, etc.

The Type 99 sharp grenade warhead, which is the main artillery shell, weighs 12.34 kilograms.

This is no small amount of weight.

The overall performance and power of the Type 99 105mm mountain gun are still good.

The two mountain cannons look indeed majestic and imposing.

Wang Huaibao smiled and said, "Oh... you are really rich... you are so arrogant, this 105-caliber mountain cannon seems barely good enough in your mouth, hahaha!"

Zhang Dabiao looked at Wang Huaibao with a smile and said, "Old Wang... your Third Battalion is not bad either. You have a lot of Type 92 infantry guns and mortars!"

"Besides, who are we to each other? Do you have enough Type 99 light machine guns? I'll get you three!"

Wang Huaibao: "Hahahaha... Lao Zhang, you really are very rich. In the blink of an eye, the old hen turns into a duck! Hahahaha!"

Shen Quan: "Old Wang, look at how much fatter Old Zhang has become. He must be living a comfortable life with good food and drink!"

Zhang Dabiao: "Hahaha, Old Shen, you really got it right!"

"Every day I had a little wine or canned beef from the Japanese. If I ran out of supplies, I would just go to the Japanese transport captain to ask for them. That was a really comfortable life. I could hardly walk, hahaha!"

The battalion commanders were all bragging to each other.

The equipment of the first, second and third battalions was exactly the one in front of Xing Zhiguo and Li Yunlong.

It can be seen that each battalion has developed very well, with a wide variety of equipment.

Xing Zhiguo looked at the good development of each battalion and company and said with a smile: "Look at you guys. Normally, when I ask you to report your organization and equipment, you all hide it!"

"Now it's good... all your family assets have been revealed, right? Hahaha!"

"Old Li...you're almost a brigade commander now!"

More than four thousand people...it really is the strength of a standard brigade.

Li Yunlong looked at the situation of each battalion, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Hahaha, not bad, each unit has developed well!"

"Now it seems that you have all become strong and wealthy. Hahaha!"

Xing Zhiguo beside him smiled and said, "Old Li, this doesn't even include the independent battalion of our new regiment! If the independent battalion's troops were included, you would probably be the division commander, hahaha!"
