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

The division commander was stunned and said, "Then this Su Zheng's independent battalion has really made a fortune!"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff laughed and said, "Hahaha, yes... there are more than 400 professionally trained cavalrymen in one battalion!"

The boss nodded and said nothing more, just a smile on his face.

Shangguan Yufei continued, "In addition to the cavalry company, there is also an artillery company!"

　530 "The artillery company has a small number of people. I think there are about of them, but they have a lot of artillery, such as mortars, grenade launchers and five Type infantry guns... Oh... By the way, there is also an Italian gun!"

"What?" The division commander couldn't help but be surprised when he heard Shangguan Yufei's words: "Five Type 92 infantry guns? And an Italian gun?"

"This... this artillery fire is almost as powerful as that of my entire division!"

Originally, the division commander thought that Su Zheng’s artillery company only had a few mortars and grenade launchers.

This is pretty awesome.

The New 1st Regiment used to have a mortar, which was extremely awesome.

If the artillery company of the independent battalion had a few mortars, it would definitely be very powerful.

After all, the Eighth Route Army was most in need of artillery, and their own arsenals were unable to produce artillery, so they could only rely on captured artillery.

However, it is extremely difficult to capture a cannon.

Because the Japanese artillery thought that if they couldn't take the artillery away, they would be destroyed if their artillery positions were about to fall.

They would rather have it destroyed than have it seized by the anti-Japanese forces.

Therefore, if you want to capture a cannon, it has always been very large.

The Deputy Chief of General Staff also laughed and said, "Hahaha... This Su Zheng is not just rich, he is extremely rich. A small battalion-level combat unit actually has such an artillery strike capability!"

The boss was also surprised and said: "I really didn't expect it... I really didn't expect that Su Zheng's independent battalion not only has a large number of soldiers, but also has excellent equipment. Good... It's really great... Hahaha!"

Several bigwigs from the headquarters present were all shocked.

Unexpectedly, Su Zheng’s independent battalion was not a simple infantry battalion, but a well-equipped mixed battalion.

After learning about these situations, the boss became more and more curious about Su Zheng and wanted to summon Su Zheng in person...

PS: Resuming the update of the big chapter, the minimum update is four chapters, one chapter will be added for automatic subscription, and one chapter will be added for reward.

Chapter 97 The boss's curiosity: Su Zheng has built the strongest base? (Fourth update, please subscribe)

Do not say do not know.

I was shocked when I heard it!

The basic situation of the independent battalion was learned from Shangguan Yufei, which shocked the general manager, deputy chief of staff, division commander and other bigwigs in the headquarters.

After all, no one expected that Su Zheng’s independent camp would be so rich.

The commander said with a smile on his face: "Hahaha, I really didn't expect that our division has such a talent."

The New 129st Regiment is affiliated to the 386th Brigade of the th Division.

The deputy chief of staff also smiled and said, "I am now more curious about how Su Zheng managed to expand the team to such a large scale in such a short time, and the equipment is so sophisticated!"

Boss: "Not only are they well-equipped...their combat effectiveness is also good!"

"Kong Jie's independent regiment was attacked by Yamamoto's special forces in Yangcun before. The regiment was defeated by a small Japanese army and suffered heavy losses. It was also this Su Zheng who encountered the Yamamoto special forces in Shentouling and finally wiped out more than 40 special forces!"

"From this perspective, it shows that Su Zheng's troops' combat effectiveness is also quite good."

Comparison is harmful.

The combat effectiveness of the independent battalion is immediately apparent.

Commander: "Yeah...it seems that Su Zheng is really a rare talent."

The independent battalion is a unit of the Eighth Route Army.

Now that the independent battalion has grown so strong, the division commander and the general are naturally very happy.

The deputy chief of the general staff said with a curious look on his face: "I am now more curious about how Su Zheng was able to gather such a large team in such a short time, and also solve the problems of equipment, food, etc. for the troops. This is the most amazing thing!"

The boss also nodded and said, "I'm curious too. I'm wondering whether I should summon this Su Zheng!"

All along, I have only heard of him but never seen him.

The boss was also curious about who this Su Zheng was.

Division Commander: "Yes, yes, yes. When the time is right, summon him to the headquarters and let him share his experience in leading the team. This will facilitate the development of our troops!"

The Deputy Chief of General Staff also nodded repeatedly and said, "Yes, yes, this kind of experience is very valuable!"

The boss paused, suddenly thought of something, looked at Shangguan Yufei and said, "Comrade Shangguan, you said that Su Zheng's independent battalion is in the Xinzhongcun base? The base he opened up himself?"

Shangguan Yufei nodded and said, "Yes, the Suzheng Independent Battalion is not just a simple garrison in Xinzhong Village, but has developed into a base!"

If it is a garrison, then it is possible to be redeployed or retreated at any time, so no attention will be focused on the garrison.

But if it develops into a base, the situation will be different.

The base area is a foundation that can provide materials and logistics, so it is necessary to increase human, material and financial resources to develop that place and make it a place for long-term armed struggle.

Therefore, it is very difficult to establish a base.

After all, we must have the ability and skill to resist the attacks and raids of the Japanese.

At the same time, we also need to work with the villagers to build logistical support.

There are many other issues that need to be resolved.

But... now Su Zheng has established his own base.

This ability is quite extraordinary.

Although the scope of the Xinzhongcun base is not large.

The boss was stunned for a moment, then he laughed and said, "Good! Good! Good! Su Zheng is quite capable of opening up a new base. Good!"

He even said several good things, which shows that the boss highly praised Su Zheng's abilities.

The division commander smiled and said, "Boss, why don't we find an opportunity to go to Su Zheng's base and see how his base is developing!"

Deputy Chief of General Staff: "Yes, yes, I am also curious about the situation of the base in Xinzhong Village!"

Boss: "Okay, when we have the chance, let's go to Su Zheng's Xinzhong Village base together!"

As the commanders of the Eighth Route Army headquarters, the general, deputy chief of staff, and division commanders certainly cannot leave the headquarters casually for the sake of safety.

In addition, they had a lot of military affairs to deal with, so even though they were curious about Su Zheng's base, they had no way to go to the Xinzhongcun base now.

The boss looked at Shangguan Yufei and said, "Comrade Shangguan, you have been busy all the way. Go down and rest first!"

"We will start studying the Japanese cipher machines and code books tomorrow. This will help us decipher the Japanese telegrams!"

"Yes!" Shangguan Yufei saluted and left.

The general, the deputy chief of staff and the division commander sat down.

The division commander looked at the general and said, "General, we asked Li Yunlong to develop a reinforced regiment of more than 5,000 people within three months. Now it seems that there is no problem!"

"I don't know about other battalions, but Su Zheng's independent battalion alone has nearly 2,000 people."

"There is still more than a month left. Li Yunlong might be able to pull out a reinforcement regiment of more than 5,000 people."

The boss said: "If Li Yunlong can really mobilize a force of more than 2,000 people, that would be the best. It can be regarded as making up for the mistakes."

The deputy chief of general staff smiled and said, "The general likes Li Yunlong very much. Even if Li Yunlong can't complete the task, he probably won't be shot. Hahaha!"

The boss said seriously, "I really don't want to execute Li Yunlong, but if he can't complete the task of the military order, then I will definitely start with strict and severe punishment, and I can't indulge him!"

This is fine!

The division commander and the deputy chief of general staff both nodded.

The trend of disobedience cannot continue.

Otherwise, there is no way to lead the team.

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

Xinzhongcun base.

After Su Zheng sent Shangguan Yufei away, he felt very sorry.

After all, this is a three-star talent.

If there was a chance, Su Zheng really wanted to poach people from the headquarters and recruit Shangguan Yufei to the independent battalion.

But there is no such opportunity now.

The independent battalion now has nearly 2,000 soldiers and is considered to be quite powerful.

Su Zheng also planned to build Xinzhong Village into the strongest base.

So Su Zheng called the logistics minister Chen Yi to the battalion headquarters and began to discuss how to strengthen the defense of the base.

At present, the defense of the Xinzhong Village base mainly consists of several defensive fortifications outside the village, but this is not enough.

Because this can't withstand the Japanese's charge!

In addition, once you attract the attention of the Japanese and become a threat to them, they may send out tanks, planes and other weapons to bomb the Xinzhongcun base.

So you must be adequately prepared.

Su Zheng looked at Chen Yi and said, "Chen Yi, I plan to build a few bunkers at the entrance of the village."

"Build one on the hillside to the left of the village entrance... build two here... build one here... that means we'll build four bunkers in total!"

"This bunker must have an ammunition depot and storage. It must also have tunnels dug to connect to the village and establish a communication trench. It must also have machine gun ports, rifle firing ports, and so on."

Chen Yi was stunned and said, "Building a tunnel and connecting the bunker? This project is a bit big!"

Su Zheng: "Chen Yi, don't be afraid of the project being too big. If ten days is not enough, then spend half a month, because this concerns the safety of our base!"

"Imagine, if the soldiers in the bunker died, we could promptly replenish our forces from the tunnel entrance in the village to ensure that the bunker continues to output firepower! This can effectively block the attack of the Japanese!"

"... Unless the Japs blow up the bunker."

Chen Yi nodded, looking a little surprised, and said, "Captain, your design is really unique. It might work wonders and can better ensure the safety of our base!"

Imagine if the Japanese paid a great price to kill the soldiers in the bunker, they thought the bunker was safe.

But at this time, the soldiers in the village could enter the bunker again through the tunnel, and they could catch the Japanese off guard.

Su Zheng smiled and said, "If the Japanese dare to attack our base, then let them have a taste of our power!"

"Remember, these bunkers must be built firmly, using stone and concrete to ensure they are sturdy!"

Chen Yi nodded and said, "Yes! I promise to complete the task!"

Su Zheng looked at the map of the base again and said, "Oh, right, there is also this high place in the village... this hilltop... and this place to build a platform for setting up heavy machine guns!"

Chen Yi was puzzled and asked, "What is this used for?"

Su Zheng: "Air defense... We don't have any air defense weapons right now. The only ones that have some air defense effect are heavy machine guns and light machine guns!"

"So we need to deploy machine guns in these places, and when the Japanese come to bomb at low altitude, we'll fire a volley of bullets at them!"

At present, Su Zheng’s independent battalion is not enough to attract the attention of the Japanese.

However, as the army grows stronger and poses a threat to the Japanese, they will definitely find a way to wipe out Su Zheng's base. (Li Mahao)

So Su Zheng must be adequately prepared!

Chen Yi reacted and said, "Captain, you are really thoughtful."

Su Zheng: "It never hurts to make more preparations!"

Afterwards, Su Zheng and Chen Yi studied the construction of the base’s security fortifications to ensure the safety of the Xinzhongcun base.

This is Su Zheng’s base camp.

We must not let the Japanese destroy our base easily.

Su Zheng wanted to build the Xinzhongcun base into the strongest base.

After finishing the research, Chen Yi started to work.

He began to call on the villagers to participate in the construction of fortifications.
