Chapter 124 Li Dabenshi's shock: This is what it means to be rich! (Second update, please subscribe)

Li Dabenshi, Sun Chenghai, Chen Dashan and other soldiers of the independent battalion were all stunned when they saw the equipment of the independent battalion.

Many of the weapons and equipment were the first time they had seen them.

Don't even know him.

Especially when I learned that the independent battalion also had American equipment, I was even more surprised.

After all, in this era, American equipment and German equipment are all good things.

Li Dabenshi looked at these weapons and equipment and murmured, "I really didn't expect the independent battalion to be so well-equipped, with artillery shells of such a large caliber!"

The larger the caliber, the greater the power.

This is everyone’s understanding of artillery.

Chen Dashan, who was standing next to him, looked at the equipment and said, "Captain... if we join the independent battalion, can we use these equipment? We don't have to use the outdated Hanyang rifles and spears, right?"

Sun Chenghai: "Magnet, the pattern is small. We are all soldiers of the independent battalion now, and we must change to the latest equipment."

After they entered the independent camp, they did not find any of these old-style Hanyang-made rifles.

These old-style Hanyang-made rifles have all been eliminated by Su Zheng.

After all, the independent battalion is now wealthy and well-equipped.

At this time, Su Zheng happened to be inspecting the training at the training ground. He ran into Li Dabenshi and others who were visiting, so he walked over and asked, "Captain Li, what do you think of our independent battalion?"

Li Dabenshi gave a thumbs up, a smile on his face and said, "It's a tough battle. Our independent battalion's equipment is really great!"

"Look, these are all Type 38 rifles... and... they are American equipment! They are so rich!"

"We have so many artillery and cavalry in one battalion. It's really a blessing in disguise."

Su Zheng laughed and said, "It's OK... Our independent battalion's equipment is OK, but it's still lacking a little bit!"

Compared with most of the Eighth Route Army troops, the independent battalion was well-equipped.

But this is not Su Zheng’s goal.

Su Zheng wanted to replace the American M1 Garand rifle, but the arsenal was unable to carry out mass production due to raw material problems. This was a problem.

So what Su Zheng wanted to solve was the problem of raw materials for the arsenal.

Li Dabenshi asked cautiously, "Um... Captain... Now our independent brigade is also part of the independent battalion, so can we use these advanced equipment?"

Su Zheng smiled and said, "Of course, after you have visited our independent camp, I will ask the logistics department to distribute weapons to you!"

"All the equipment you have will be eliminated. Use the equipment of our independent battalion!"

"But you have just joined our independent camp, so you still need to go through our independent camp's training!"

When Li Daben heard that he could use elite equipment, his face lit up and he said, "That's really great... Thank you, Captain!"

As he said this, he saluted.

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Okay, you all go train later and provide your combat effectiveness as soon as possible!"

Although the soldiers of the militia have a certain combat effectiveness, they still need to continue training to improve their combat effectiveness.

Li Dabenshi responded loudly: "Yes!"

Su Zheng looked at the soldiers in training, then looked at Li Dabenshi and said, "Captain Li, you think these equipments are very advanced, but they are not... We have more advanced weapons... Unfortunately, we can't make them due to lack of raw materials!"

The problem of raw materials for the arsenal is a problem.

The arsenal is now mainly lacking three raw materials, namely saltpeter, iron and copper.

Saltpeter is the raw material used to make ordinary black powder.

Iron is naturally the main raw material for making guns.

Copper, this is the raw material for making bullets.

It can be said that these raw materials are relatively difficult to obtain.

If these raw material problems are solved, the arsenal's output will be greatly increased.

In order to support the production of the arsenal, the people of Xinzhong Village really supported it with all their might.

But these are just a drop in the bucket and cannot solve the fundamental problem.

Li Dabenshi was stunned and asked, "Captain, what raw materials do you need? Iron?"

Su Zheng nodded and said, "Well, iron ore, copper ore, and saltpeter ore are the raw materials we need to find!"

Li Dabenshi rolled his eyes and said, "Captain, is the iron ore a black stone?"

Su Zheng's eyes lit up and he asked, "Yeah... do you know where it is?"

Li Dabenshi: "I don't know if it's the iron ore you're looking for... Anyway, when we were ambushing in Wuyi County before, we saw the Japanese using trucks to transport truckloads of stone powder!"

"We didn't know what it was at the time, nor did we know what it was for, so we didn't care!!"

"Later, I heard from some intellectuals in our county that those were iron ore or something, but I don't know if that's true or not."

Su Zheng: "Where is it? Take me to see it!"

If the problem of raw materials in the arsenal can be solved, then the problem of production will be easy to solve.

Li Dabenshi: "Okay... but it's a bit far from here, about 50 kilometers away, and that area is occupied by the Japanese and the traitors."

"It's too far away. Even if it's really iron ore, it's hard for us to get it back!"

Indeed, these iron ores are ores.

Even if each person carried a bag back, not much iron could be extracted.

So how to get the iron ore back is a big problem.

Su Zheng was silent for a moment, then said, "Never mind for now... Take me to have a look first, and get as much as you can."

"There's no time to lose, take me there now!"

"Monk, notify the Dragon Soul Special Forces to assemble immediately."

Iron is the basic material for arsenals, so it is natural to have to solve the problem.

Although it may not be possible to get all of the iron ore back, we can get as much as we can.

Li Dabenshi: "Okay, I'll take you there now!"

Afterwards, Su Zheng took Wei Dayong, the Dragon Soul Special Forces, Li Dabenshi, Sun Chenghai, Chen Dashan and others to Wuyi County.

As for the other members of the militia, they immediately started training.

They set out at noon, and finally in the evening, Su Zheng and his group were close to Wuyi County.

Along the way, Su Zheng learned from Li Dabenshi that there was a mine near Wuyi County. The mine was called Wuyi Mine, and it should be a mine mainly producing iron ore.

Wuyi County is far away from the nearest train station, so generally after mining in Wuyi Mine, it is necessary to transport the ore to the train station by truck, and then transport the ore to Mo City by train, and then transport it back to Japan by freight ship from Mo City.

This is plundering resources.

It can be said that during the invasion of China, the Japanese plundered China's various resources on a large scale, such as oil, coal, iron, copper, gold and other minerals. The amount of plunder was calculated in billions of tons.

· ···Request flowers··· 0

You know, Japan is an island country with scarce resources, especially mineral resources.

However, the war required a large amount of various minerals, such as coal, iron ore, copper ore, etc., so the Japanese could only plunder crazily.

According to relevant post-war statistics, during the period of invasion of China, the Japanese invaders plundered about 10 billion tons of coal, about 1.8 million tons of iron ore, about 150 million tons of copper ore, about 10 tons of aluminum, and about 5 tons of magnesium from various regions of China, in addition to a large amount of other metal ores and other resources.

The most hateful and infuriating thing is that these Japanese devils used the plundered resources to manufacture guns and cannons, and eventually used them to invade China. It is really infuriating and helpless.

After a forced march, Su Zheng and his group had arrived outside the Wuyi Mine.

It was already evening, the sun had set, and night was gradually falling.

Because if too many people approached the mine it would easily attract the attention of the Japanese, so Su Zheng only took Li Dabenshi, Chen Zhengguo, Wei Dayong, Sun Chenghai and a few others to approach the mine to understand the situation.

On a hillside about one kilometer away from the mine, Su Zheng was lying on the ground, observing the situation in the mine through a telescope.

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

This is a telescope with built-in night vision goggles as a system reward. Both the viewing clarity and the night vision goggles' enhanced effect make it more convenient for Su Zheng to observe.

Through the telescope, Su Zheng could see that the area of ​​the entire Wuyi mine was not too large, but the ore content was very high, and he could see cartloads of ore being pulled out of the mine.

Su Zheng took a look and saw that this was obviously an iron ore mine.

I saw that these ores were black blocks with a dark gray color, obviously magnetite.

There are many types of iron ore, the main ones that can be used for iron smelting are magnetite, hematite, siderite and so on.

Wuyi Mine is a magnetite mine, the main component of which is Fe3O4, with a specific gravity of about 5.15, of which Fe is 72.4% and O is 27.6%, and it has certain magnetism.

This type of magnetite is a relatively common iron ore, and it is also relatively simple to process, allowing better iron extraction.

Iron ore is a strategic material and the lifeline of the economy, so there are quite a few Japanese and puppet troops in the entire iron mine.

Su Zheng took a rough look and saw that there was a small team of Japanese devils and a company of puppet troops, about two hundred Japanese and puppet troops in total.

Putting down the telescope, Su Zheng said, "What is certain is that this is an iron ore mine, and the Japanese puppet army has about 200 soldiers."

"There are a total of four military trucks used to transport iron ore!"

"We want to transport the iron ore back to our base, so we need to use these big trucks!"

If these four large trucks can be used to transport the iron ore back to the base, that would be a lot. A lot of iron can be refined and a lot of weapons and equipment can be produced.

Chen Zhengguo looked at the Wuyi Mine and said, "More than 200 Japanese and puppet troops are not a problem for our Dragon Soul Special Forces! We can easily deal with them."

"But the difficulty lies in getting rid of these devils and transporting the ore out!"

More than two hundred Japanese and puppet troops are no problem?

Li Dabenshi and Sun Chenghai couldn't help but look at Chen Zhengguo sideways, with some disbelief in their eyes, thinking that Chen Zhengguo was bragging.

There are more than 200 Japanese and puppet troops here?

Can it be easily solved by more than 30 members of the Dragon Soul Team?

Is that an exaggeration?

The reason why they were so unbelievable was that Li Dabenshi and Sun Chenghai didn't know how powerful the Dragon Soul Special Forces were...

Chapter 125: Seizing the mining area right under his nose, Su Zheng made a fortune! (The third update, please subscribe)

Li Dabenshi and Sun Chenghai had just joined the independent battalion, so naturally they did not understand the strength of the Dragon Soul Special Forces.

So I feel like Chen Zhengguo is bragging.

If he had seen the battle of the Dragon Soul Special Forces, he would not think so.

Su Zheng and Chen Zhengguo did not notice the expressions of Li Dabenshi and Sun Chenghai, but began to discuss how to get the iron ore.

It is not difficult to get rid of these Japanese and puppet troops.

The difficulty lies in transporting iron ore!

After all, if the noise was too loud and the Japanese and puppet troops in Wuyi County launched pursuit, there would be no way to transport the iron ore out.

Su Zheng: "I was thinking of using these military trucks to transport the ore back to the base, and at the same time have Zhao Donghai, Lei Zifeng and others from the base come out to pick them up!"

"But the first thing we have to do is to transport these ores out of the enemy-occupied areas."

"It seems that we can only act at night. Let's observe and see how to act!"

As Su Zheng spoke, he picked up the telescope again and began to observe the situation in the mine.

Although night is gradually falling now.

But mining continues throughout the mine.

Snapped......
