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

Looking at the situation in the tank cockpit, Zhang Dabiao was completely dumbfounded. He touched here and there with great curiosity... he looked like he had never seen the world before.

"A tank... Wow... It's really a tank!"

Zhang Dabiao was so excited.

Li Yunlong watched Zhang Dabiao get into the Sherman tank and said, "I'll get into the tank too. Let me open my eyes!"

As he spoke, Li Yunlong also got into the cockpit of the Sherman tank to feel the power of the Sherman tank.

Li Yunlong, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Wang Huaibao and others saw a tank for the first time. They were all very excited and wanted to get into the Sherman M4 tank to see what was inside.

They had seen the Japs before during the war against Japan.

But usually on the battlefield.

Faced with enemy tanks, they could only rely on suicide squads using explosive packs to destroy them.

There is simply no time 13 and opportunity to get to know tanks.

Now Su Zheng's independent battalion has four tanks, which naturally attracted the great interest of Li Yunlong and others.

Although they did not understand some of the tank's components or operations, they felt very powerful when they saw the various operating components and shells in the tank's cockpit.

Li Yunlong never imagined that one day he would be able to get close to a tank.

After more than half an hour, everyone was still not satisfied looking at the tanks.

Feeling the shock of the tank up close is a completely extraordinary feeling.

Xing Zhiguo looked at the Sherman M4 tank in front of him and said in amazement: "Su Zheng, your Sherman tank is also a Chinese product, right? The Japanese don't even have a tank like this!"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, these are tanks donated by our overseas Chinese compatriots in Magnesium to support our independent battalion, so there are not many of them, only two!"

Li Yunlong grinned and said, "Su Zheng, your overseas Chinese friends in Magnesium are really amazing. They can even get a tank!"

"Getting the tank is not the most amazing thing. The most amazing thing is that we can break through the Japanese blockade and transport it to such a complicated place as the Xinzhongcun base. It's really amazing."

Su Zheng smiled and said, "It is indeed amazing."

After a brief visit to the tank company, everyone came to the logistics area of ​​the independent battalion.

Li Yunlong was also very curious about the things on the trucks, donkey carts, and horse carts, and couldn't help but ask: "Su Zheng, what are these trucks loaded with?"

Su Zheng did not hide anything and said truthfully: "They are all logistical supplies, such as bullets, ammunition, military rations, fuel, etc."

Pah...

Zhang Dabiao lifted the canvas on the back of a donkey cart and immediately saw that it was filled with ammunition boxes.

Looking at the label on the ammunition box, these are all 7.62mm bullets, a total of 500 rounds!

In addition to bullets, there are also grenades, artillery shells of various calibers, and so on.

Li Yunlong: "Are these all ammunition and food?"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Well... this time our independent battalion is going out to fight, and we need a lot of supplies, so we naturally sent out a logistics transport team to transport them!"

Xing Zhiguo sighed and said, "They are really rich. Look at the weapons and ammunition they have!"

Shen Quan smiled and looked at Su Zheng and said, "Su Zheng, everyone knows that your independent camp has made a fortune, but I didn't expect you to be so wealthy... You are truly a local rich man!"

"But did you destroy the Japanese's hometown? Otherwise, how did you get so many supplies and ammunition?"

Wang Huaibao was also curious and asked, "Yes, yes, I have the same question. I see that all your ammunition is packed in ammunition boxes. They all look brand new and there are quite a lot of them!"

"If we hadn't seized the Japanese's hometown, how could we have so many brand new ammunition boxes and ammunition?"

Indeed, for the Eighth Route Army, which had a weak military foundation, they had to rely on robbing the Japanese for weapons, equipment, guns and ammunition, and the production output of their own logistics department arsenal was very limited.

Moreover, the production conditions and technology were relatively poor, and they could only produce some rifles and bullets, and the quality was not very high.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, you can only get brand new ammunition boxes of bullets by robbing the Japanese's arsenal.

However, Su Zheng's independent battalion logistics transport team transported a lot of weapons and ammunition. Ordinary small and medium-sized arsenals may not have so many bullets and artillery shells.

This is also what Wang Huaibao, Shen Quan, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao, Li Yunlong and others are confused about.

Xing Zhiguo also spoke curiously: "Su Zheng, I am also curious... I saw that the number of bullets and grenades that can be allocated to the soldiers of your independent battalion is not small!"

"Each soldier's bullet bag is filled with bullets. It is conservatively estimated that there are more than 20 bullets. In addition, each soldier can also be allocated three to five grenades. The ammunition distributed to the soldiers is quite sufficient!"

"Add to that the ammunition and shells transported by the logistics transport team. The quantity is really huge. Could it be that you really took down the Japanese's hometown?"

Li Yunlong also looked at Su Zheng in confusion and said, "Yes...Su Zheng, where did you get these ammunitions? Could they also be sent by our compatriots from Magnesium?"

Seeing everyone so confused, Su Zheng knew that the matter of the arsenal could no longer be concealed.

因为像M1加兰德步枪、M134加特林重机枪以及M2A1式105口径榴弹炮，这些子弹都是需要自己生产的。

The calibers of many bullets and artillery shells are different from those used by the Japanese.

If Su Zheng still said that it was smuggled in by overseas Chinese compatriots from Magnesium...that would be a bit hard to explain.

After all, that’s a lot of numbers.

Not to mention in times of war, even in times of peace, it is not an easy task to transport such a large quantity of weapons and equipment.

Therefore, Su Zheng knew that the matter of the arsenal could no longer be concealed.

We have no choice but to reveal our cards.

Stop pretending!

Su Zheng looked at Li Yunlong, Xing Zhiguo and the other five people and said, "Since you have such doubts, I will not pretend anymore and I will be honest. Our independent battalion actually has an arsenal!"

"The production equipment of the arsenal was smuggled in by our overseas Chinese compatriots from Magnesium. It is our own arsenal!"

"These shells and ammunition are all produced by our arsenal."

arsenal?

The independent battalion actually has its own arsenal?

Hearing Su Zheng's words, Li Yunlong, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao were all stunned. Their expressions froze for a moment, and then shock appeared on their faces. They looked at each other with disbelief in their eyes.

shocked!

Shocked again.

The Independent Battalion and Su Zheng brought them shocks time and time again!

The shock and astonishment are getting greater each time.

The five people all had expressions of astonishment and shock that were difficult to conceal.

stunned!

I was completely dumbfounded!

Totally unbelievable.

If anyone else had said this, they wouldn't have believed it.

But these words came from Su Zheng's mouth, and they believed it instantly, and then they were shocked.

The surprise and shock on everyone's faces were difficult to express in words.

arsenal!

This is not a bedding factory!

It is not easy to build an arsenal. It requires a lot of equipment, raw materials, production lines, etc.

The entire arsenal system requires cooperation from multiple parties.

The entire Eighth Route Army had only one large arsenal, and the rest were small workshops that produced homemade grenades and bullets.

It can be seen how difficult it is to plan and build an arsenal.

But now an independent battalion, a battalion-level combat unit, actually has its own arsenal. This is such a shocking thing.

Not to mention that they were shocked, the boss was also quite shocked and surprised when he learned that Su Zheng owned an arsenal.

Especially when the boss and others visited the independent battalion's arsenal, they were shocked by the production line and equipment of the independent battalion's arsenal. It was said to be the most advanced arsenal he had ever seen.

After a long while, Li Yunlong finally came back to his senses from his shock and said, "Su Zheng, does your independent battalion really have an arsenal? And it's a mature arsenal? Not a small workshop?"

If the independent battalion had a small workshop, Li Yunlong and others would not be so shocked.

After all, it is very common for some small workshops to produce homemade grenades and bullets, after all, the production technology and requirements are not high.

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, our independent battalion does have an arsenal!"

“独立营的兵工厂规模还行吧......可以生产炮弹子弹，以及M1加兰德步枪、M134加特林重机枪以及M2A1式105口径榴弹炮等等都可以通过我们的兵工厂生产！”

Hiss hiss hiss...

Hearing this, Li Yunlong, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Wang Huaibao and others were once again stunned and took a deep breath.

Being able to produce rifles, heavy machine guns and howitzers shows that the scale of the independent battalion arsenal is not small...

PS: I will update more. I hope the auto-subscription will exceed 50. I hope a rich man will give me 100 VIP reward. Thanks.

Chapter 405 The Eighth Route Army is equipped with American equipment! The development of the independent battalion is a legend! (First update, please subscribe)

When they learned that the independent battalion had an arsenal, Li Yunlong, Xing Zhiguo, Zhang Dabiao, Shen Quan, Wang Huaibao and others were all shocked and surprised.

After all, no one would have expected that an independent battalion, a battalion-level combat unit, would also have an arsenal.

Not to mention the regular large-scale arsenals, even small-scale arsenals are very powerful.

然而现在听到苏正说独立营的兵工厂可以生产M1加兰德步枪、M134加特林重机枪以及M2A1式105口径榴弹炮，这说明独立营的兵工厂并不是什么小作坊了。

This is awesome!

This is great.

The independent battalion’s arsenal is not simple!

Li Yunlong was stunned, and looked at Su Zheng with some uncertainty in his eyes and said, "Su Zheng, I really didn't expect it... I thought your arsenal was a small workshop that only produced some artillery shells and bullets. I didn't expect it to be able to produce heavy machine guns and howitzers. It's far beyond my expectations. Your arsenal is not simple!"

Xing Zhiguo also exclaimed: "No wonder most of your independent battalions are equipped with M1 Garand rifles, and there are so many weapons, ammunition and bullets... It turns out that your own arsenal can produce them!"

Shen Quan: "Oh my goodness... No wonder the independent battalion can develop so fast, it turns out that it has its own arsenal, and it is a formal and large-scale arsenal."

"Su Zheng, you are no longer a local rich man, you have become the God of Wealth!"

Wang Huaibao: "I can't believe it. An independent battalion, a battalion-level combat unit, actually has such a mature and large-scale arsenal."

"Su Zheng, I, Wang Huaibao, am really impressed. I was able to develop the independent battalion to a size of 20,000 people, open up such a large base, and now even have an arsenal... This was accomplished in just half a year. It's incredible."

Wang Huaibao opened his eyes wide, his face full of surprise.

If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes and heard it with your own eyes, you would never have believed it.

The development of Su Zheng's independent camp is absolutely a legend.

It is the legend of the Eighth Route Army!

It is even a legend in the entire history of military development!

Li Yunlong also gave a thumbs up in admiration and said, "Su Zheng, you are this... I, Li Yunlong, am also impressed. I didn't expect that you have such an advanced arsenal, and the weapons and equipment produced are all advanced equipment."

Su Zheng smiled and said, "All this is thanks to the help of our overseas Chinese compatriots in Magnesium. It was they who provided the equipment that enabled my arsenal to be established so quickly."

To explain the source of these arsenal equipment, Su Zheng could only say that they were overseas Chinese compatriots in Magnesium.

Otherwise, it is impossible to explain these production equipment that appeared out of nowhere.

Zhang Dabiao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly thought of something. He looked at Su Zheng with bright eyes and said, "Su Zheng, your arsenal is so powerful, when can you give us some M1 Garand rifles? This rifle is a good thing! "

I just test-fired the M1 Garand rifle, and Zhang Dabiao can't forget it.

If I could be equipped with an M1 Garand rifle, I would wake up laughing in my sleep.

Shen Quan and Wang Huaibao also looked at Su Zheng, obviously hoping to get the M1 Garand rifle produced by the Independent Battalion Arsenal.

Li Yunlong's eyes also sparkled as he waited for Su Zheng's reply.

Su Zheng naturally understood what everyone meant, and said slowly: "Everyone, this is not that our Su Zheng is stingy."

"It's mainly because our arsenal is limited by the raw materials it produces, so its production capacity is limited. Currently, our independent battalion is unable to guarantee full staffing of M1 Garand rifles!"

"But don't worry, when the production capacity of our arsenal increases, we will give priority to equipping your troops. Is that okay?"

Indeed, the biggest problem facing the Independent Battalion Arsenal now is production capacity.
