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

Hearing that the heavy weapons that the artillery battalion was going to equip this time were actually anti-aircraft guns, Yang Zhihua's eyes lit up and he said in surprise, "What? We have anti-aircraft guns? Anti-aircraft guns that can both carry out long-range strikes and perform air defense?"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Yes, this M1 heavy anti-aircraft gun is a very advanced anti-aircraft gun."

"The M1 heavy anti-aircraft gun can fire 360 ​​degrees, with a maximum elevation of 80 degrees, and can fire 12 rounds per minute. The muzzle velocity of the gun is 945 meters per second, the maximum range is nearly 25000 meters, and the maximum firing height is about 17500 meters. It is more than enough for air defense and shooting down aircraft!"

After hearing Su Zheng's introduction of the performance of the M1 heavy anti-aircraft gun, Yang Zhihua's eyes lit up and he said, "Captain, you are really amazing. I don't know where you got so many advanced anti-aircraft guns. It's really amazing!"

"Anti-aircraft guns... For us in the Eighth Route Army, this is something that is out of reach."

"I didn't expect there were 30 RPG-7 rocket launchers. This is simply a magical weapon on the battlefield. Gods will be killed and Buddhas will be killed!"

During the Battle of Heian, the Tiger Guards only had 5 RPG-7 rocket launchers...which played a very important role.

Especially in terms of anti-tank, it is definitely a leader!

In addition, the RPG-7 rocket launcher also plays a huge role in dealing with heavy machine gun positions, bunkers and solid fortifications.

Yang Zhihua is well aware of the power of the RPG-7 rocket launcher.

Now the artillery battalion is equipped with 30 RPG-7 rocket launchers, which greatly enhances its strike capability.

However, Yang Zhihua did not know what an M2 flamethrower was, so he asked, "Captain, what is an M2 flamethrower? Is it used to spray fire?"

Flamethrower...this is a weapon that the Eighth Route Army has never heard of or seen before.

It's completely new weaponry.

Su Zheng explained: "The M2 flamethrower is a fire-breathing weapon that can be used to deal with bunkers, circular fortifications, etc."

"This is a new type of weapon. You can try it out when the time comes."

The M2 flamethrower was a brand new weapon and equipment, which was something the wealthy Tiger Guards had never seen before.

You need to see it with your own eyes to know its specific power and combat effectiveness.

Su Zheng handed the M2 flamethrower to the artillery battalion, which also enhanced the special strike capability of the artillery battalion.

这一次虎贲团列装了B17轰炸机和P51野马战斗机、谢尔曼M4中型坦克和潘兴M26重型坦克、1M1重型高射炮和M2火焰喷射器、RPG-7火箭推射器，那是大大增强了虎贲团的机械化战斗力。

The advanced equipment also shocked everyone.

The Tiger Guards will also undergo earth-shaking changes!

Now the Tiger Guards must fully equip themselves with American equipment, quickly improve their combat effectiveness, and make full preparations for the attack on Longcheng.

Then, Su Zheng looked at Chen Yi and Xiao Ya and said, "Chen Yi and Xiao Ya, I have a big project for you..."

PS: Please give me an automatic subscription of over 60, thanks.

Chapter 520: Building an air defense tower! Strong troops and powerful horses! Shocked old devils! (Fourth update, please subscribe)

Big project?

Chen Yi and Xiao Ya were both slightly stunned and asked, "Captain, what big project?"

Su Zheng said: "This time the artillery battalion is equipped with a total of 10 M1 heavy anti-aircraft guns."

"In order to consolidate the security of the Xinzhongcun base, I plan to build the Xinzhongcun air defense tower at the highest point of the Xinzhongcun base, specifically to prevent the Japanese air force from air raids and bombings!"

The inspiration for the Xinzhongcun air defense tower that Su Zheng was going to build in the Xinzhongcun base was the Berlin air defense tower.

The Berlin Flak Tower is the Zoo Tower, a highly fortified anti-aircraft turret located in Berlin.

This can be said to be the strongest anti-aircraft tower in World War II.

The Berlin air defense tower has Tower G and Tower L.

Tower G is a tall tower that houses anti-aircraft guns and is also the main tower. It can accommodate 70.5 people in total. The length, width and height of the entire tower are 70.5 meters, 39 meters and 3.5 meters respectively. The thickness of the surrounding walls is as high as meters, and the thickness of the floor is as high as five meters.

There is also an L tower, which is mainly responsible for the sensing equipment, so the entire L tower is relatively small.

The L-type air defense tower is slightly smaller, with specifications of 50 meters in length, 23 meters in width and 39 meters in height. The wall is 2.5 meters thick, with a reinforced concrete structure inside and cast concrete outside. It can withstand direct hits from aerial bombs weighing more than 250 kilograms, and can also withstand strafing damage from naval guns of various calibers.

Tower G and Tower L are connected by an underground transportation supply line.

The construction of the Berlin Air Raid Tower is very impressive. It consists of one underground floor and six above-ground floors. The tower is well-equipped with facilities, including an 85-bed hospital, sufficient supplies and logistical materials, and can hold its own for more than a year.

Just think about how horrible it is.

It can be said that the Berlin Air Raid Tower is quite spectacular. The reinforced concrete building is 70 meters long and 70 meters wide. It also has 8-meter-thick walls and a 5-meter-thick roof.

Such an anti-aircraft tower can withstand fierce battles from air raids and artillery bombardments.

As the strongest anti-aircraft tower in World War II, the Berlin Twin Anti-Aircraft Towers withstood attacks from air and ground offensive bombing shells. Even the Soviet Army's largest-caliber 203mm howitzers were useless and could not blow up the Berlin Anti-Aircraft Tower.

Su Zheng is now planning to build a Xinzhong air defense tower similar to the Berlin air defense tower in the Xinzhong Village base.

The Xinzhongcun base is the headquarters of the Tiger Guards and the location of the regiment's headquarters. It is also the location of many logistics departments and the root of the Tiger Guards... Its importance is self-evident.

Therefore, the Xinzhongcun base naturally had to prevent the Japanese invaders' attacks and bombings.

Previously, the main air defense force of the Xinzhongcun base relied on the firepower network built by machine guns such as the M134 Gatling machine gun and the Type light machine gun.

But a machine gun is still a machine gun, its air defense capability is limited, and it has no anti-aircraft artillery specialty at all.

In order to ensure the safety of the Xinzhong Village base, a Xinzhong air defense tower must be built.

Chen Yi was puzzled and asked, "Captain, how should this air defense tower be built?"

Su Zheng: "It's very simple. The air defense tower I want to build mainly has two towers, and they are all cast with reinforced concrete. The thickness of the wall must not be less than three meters, and the thickest part must reach five meters or even more than five meters."

"This air defense tower can hold five anti-aircraft guns, and inside it can also store various supplies, medical support, ammunition, etc."

"In addition, we will also deploy heavy machine guns and light machine guns on air defense towers to build a firepower network."

"The Xinzhong air defense tower is a powerful air defense weapon for our Xinzhong Village base. It can effectively resist the Japanese air raids and bombings!"

"We can continue to discuss how to build it and where to build it... But I have only one goal, and that is to build a Xinzhong air defense tower no matter how much it costs."

As a time traveler, Su Zheng naturally knew how powerful the Berlin air defense tower was.

In the late stage of World War II, the Soviet army invaded Berlin, but the Berlin Air Defense Tower alone made it difficult for the Soviet army to move forward. No matter what weapons and equipment the Soviet army used, they could not break through the Berlin Air Defense Tower.

Truly a one man stand against ten thousand.

This is also the reason why Su Zheng is building a new air defense tower.

Su Zheng was planning to take root in the Xinzhongcun base.

Xiao Ya nodded and said, "Captain, according to the relevant construction data you provided, this will be a large project that will take a lot of time and cost a lot of money."

Chen Yi: "Yes... We can mobilize the people in the Xinzhongcun base to help build it!"

"But for such a huge project...I am not sure when it will be completed."

Su Zheng: "It's okay...just build it as quickly as possible."

"In any case, this new air defense tower must be built!"

Su Zheng had wanted to build a new air defense tower before.

But there was not enough military funds at that time.

There were no anti-aircraft guns either.

In the end, I had no choice but to give up.

But the situation is different now.

The Tiger Guards are now strong and well-equipped, with sufficient military funds to build a new air defense tower.

If the Tiger Guards want to attack Longcheng, they must stabilize the rear area.

Ensure the safety of the Xinzhongcun base so that we can launch an attack on Longcheng without any hesitation.

After making a series of arrangements and deployments, Su Zheng asked Xu Yang, Yang Zhihua, He Wenjian and others to bring back the weapons and equipment, and then immediately start training to form combat effectiveness as quickly as possible.

At the same time, Xiao Ya and Chen Yi began to build a new air defense tower.

Once the Xinzhong air defense tower is completed, it means that the Xinzhong Village base will no longer be afraid of the Japanese air raids.

According to Su Zheng's plan, the first new air defense tower would be built in the headquarters of the Tiger Guards Regiment and in places where there were more logistics departments of the Tiger Guards Regiment.

Other air defense towers will be built one after another in the future.

Everything is going on in an orderly manner.

three days later.

The news of Nanzō Yūko's death spread.

This immediately caused quite a stir and impact.

Taiyuan.

First Army Headquarters.

Ever since Ping'an County was captured and occupied by the Tiger Guards, Yoshio Shinozuka has been completely panicked.

Yoshio Shinozuka had witnessed the powerful combat capability of the Tiger Guards. Coupled with the fact that the number of Japanese and puppet troops in the entire Second War Zone was not large enough and not elite enough, he had no way of preventing an effective counterattack.

· ···Request flowers··· 0

Now Yoshio Shinozuka's requirements are not high, just being able to defend Taiyuan is enough.

If Taiyuan was recaptured by the Tiger Guards, the Japanese would have no chance of winning in the Second War Zone.

This is a large and important city.

To be honest...now Yoshio Shinozuka is afraid that the Tiger Guards will attack Taiyuan.

Very panicked.

Since the Battle of Heian, the 2nd Division and Takeshita Shun were completely wiped out, but the headquarters of the Japanese invading China did not hold Shinozuka Yoshio accountable, which surprised Shinozuka Yoshio.

However, Yoshio Shinozuka soon figured it out: the reason why Ping'an County was lost was mainly because the Tiger Guards were too strong. Coupled with the assistance of other anti-Japanese forces in the Second War Zone, this ultimately led to the disastrous defeat of the Battle of Ping'an.

The old devil Okamura also wants to remove Yoshio Shinozuka.

But once Yoshio Shinozuka was removed from his post, there would be no one to serve as the commander of the First Army in North China.

The situation in the second war zone is so tense now that replacing people is not the best solution.

At least for now, the old devil Okamura has not found a suitable candidate, so he will not deal with Yoshio Shinozuka for the time being.

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

Yoshio Shinozuka is also in great pain now!

So frustrating!

Being the commander of the First Army is really frustrating.

Yoshio Shinozuka's only hope is that his million-dollar bounty and Nanzō Yunko can assassinate Su Zheng.

After all, Nanzō Yunko is still in the Shinnakamura base.

As the flower of the empire, Nanzō Yunko, Yoshio Shinozuka hopes that she can complete the difficult task of assassinating Su Zheng.

As for the million-dollar bounty.

I guess it's too difficult.

The reward amount is high though.

But this task is also very difficult.

Coupled with Su Zheng's reputation and fame, people are even more reluctant to assassinate Su Zheng easily.

Tatata...

Suddenly, a burst of hurried footsteps was heard.

Hearing the footsteps, Yoshio Shinozuka suddenly had a bad feeling.

Now Yoshio Shinozuka especially didn't want to hear such hurried footsteps.

Every time these footsteps sound, it's definitely not going to be good.

Soon, accompanied by hurried footsteps, Miyano Shun came in front of Yoshio Shinozuka.

Seeing Miyano Shun looking so anxious and nervous, Shinozuka Yoshio asked calmly, "Miyano-kun, has something happened again? You look so nervous."

Miyano Shun looked at Shinozuka Yoshio and said, "Yes... General Shinozuka, I just got accurate information. Miss Nanzō Yunko died for her country!"

"What? Nanzō Yunko is dead?"
