Chapter 37 Do you call this the Mountain Pao Battalion?

"Chu Yunfei came to our new group?"

In the Yangcun Martial Arts Field, Li Datuan, who was inspecting the training of the First Battalion, frowned slightly after hearing the report from the cavalry battalion's signal soldier.

The tone was puzzled: "Didn't you say that these officers are going to the main force regiment, what are they doing here?"

Although the two met in Hulugou last time, Li Yunlong didn't have a good impression of Chu Yunfei.

Of course, the main reason why I didn't have a good impression of Chu Yunfei was that Li Yunlong had a problem with the 358th regiment when the Eighth Route Army was reorganized to cross the Yellow River.

The more important reason is that although it is now a period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, Li Yunlong has fought with the national army for ten years, and he knows that the two sides can't urinate in the same pot.

Commander Li has always been wary of the national army.

So at the time of the ambush in Hulugou, Li Yunlong learned that the 358 regiment was stationed behind him, so he asked the cavalry battalion to ambush behind him to prevent someone from stabbing the chrysanthemum.

"Our new regiment is indeed not the main regiment, but we are the ace regiment of the Eighth Route Army, and Chu Yunfei's 358 regiment is also Yan Xishan's ace regiment."

"Ace vs. trump is reasonable."

There was a sound of shouting and shouting from the soldiers training, and Zhao Gang heard Li Yunlong's words and said from the side.

Li Yunlong's tone was disdainful:
"This train is not pushed, and the cowhide is not blown."

"Our regiment is called the ace regiment because of its real record. What is the Sakata Regiment, the Black Island Cavalry Regiment, the Fourth Brigade, the 225th Regiment, the Okazaki Brigade, and the Yamazaki Detachment."

"By the way, there are also the Yamamoto Secret Service Team, the Seventh Japanese Tank Regiment, the two squadrons of the Kwantung Army, and the Saku Battalion. I don't even bother to mention it."

"Which one is not the defeat of our Xinyi regiment?"

"Does the 358th regiment have any record? Doesn't seem like it? Even without the record, he has the nerve to be called a trump card?"

"I'm too embarrassed to point you out." Zhao Gang smiled, "Are you too lazy to mention it? How about I write you a couplet with a brush, and you can carry it with you every day, and tell people when you see them. Li Yunlong led the new regiment and wiped out so many enemies, how proud is that?"

"My old Li cares about face?" Li Yunlong said, "Stop talking nonsense, let's go meet Chu Yunfei."

Zhao Gang said: "After all, he is here to visit today, and he is also a guest of the headquarters. You should be more polite in your speech. You can't just say a few words, so that people can't get off the stage."

"Don't worry." Li Yunlong hummed, "I know it well."

……

In the courtyard of regimental headquarters.

Sun Ming whispered: "Tuan Zuo, have you noticed that this new group looks richer than our 358 group?"

"From the entrance of the village to here, the equipment of this new regiment is simply dazzling."

"Like semi-automatic rifles, Czech light machine guns, Maxim heavy machine guns, 60mm mortars, machine anti-aircraft guns."

"By the way, there are also large-caliber heavy machine guns."

"I also saw a few 75mm mountain cannons on the grain drying field?"

Chu Yunfei nodded, with a puzzled look on his face.

He had already seen a new group of sophisticated equipment in Hulugou last time.

At that time, the new regiment did not have Garand semi-automatic rifles, large-caliber heavy machine guns, and American 75mm mountain guns.

At that time, he suspected that the Soviet government might secretly provide a small amount of weapons and equipment to the Eighth Route Army.

But right now it seems that he is thinking too much. Garand semi-automatic rifles and M2 large-caliber heavy machine guns are all standard equipment of the US military, and it is impossible for the US to sell them.

Could it be that the United States is secretly supporting the Eighth Route?Chu Yunfei was a little uncertain.

Those Chu Yunfei looked at the equipment that was extremely jealous, and the new group was just exposed outside, without any intention of hiding it.

"Even their cavalry are equipped with Czechs, horns, and mortars."

"There are also those machine-made anti-aircraft guns, which are definitely made by foreign manufacturers, and their quality is much better than those of Kenanpo's machine-made anti-aircraft guns."

"Even the Su Luotong 20mm machine-made anti-aircraft gun equipped by the national army's ace German weapon master back then is not as good as the one in the hands of Eight Road."

"And judging by the quantity, there are at least dozens of them."

"Where did they get so many machine guns?"

Some jealousy glanced at the two 20mm machine guns in the yard, and Chu Yunfei's tone was envious.

If you want to ask the devil what is the most annoying thing, it must be the devil's plane without a doubt, and it can still run if it can't beat the devil on the frontal battlefield.

For example, the 358th Regiment fought with the Japanese Sakata Regiment for an hour, causing more than 300 casualties. Chu Yunfei led the 358th Regiment to escape, and the devils had no choice.

However, there is no way for the Japanese planes to specifically bomb your headquarters and your artillery positions.

At the beginning of the Xinkou battlefield, the Japanese army occupied Yangmingbao Airport, with only one flying team of more than 20 aircraft, causing casualties of thousands of Chinese soldiers every day on average.

On the battlefield, a brigade equipped with dozens of anti-aircraft machine guns with excellent performance can keep the devil's planes from getting cheap, and even shoot down the devil's planes.

Sun Ming said: "A regiment of the Eighth Route Army is actually equipped with dozens of cannons. It's a waste of money."

"These are on the bright side." Chu Yunfei said in a deep voice, "It may not be the full strength of Xinyituan."

Sun Ming couldn't help taking a breath when he heard the words, isn't this the full strength of Xinyituan?

"salute!"

Suddenly, a guard's voice sounded outside the door, and Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming turned to look at the door.

I saw Li Yunlong walking in from the door, followed by a fair-faced, bookish Eighth Route Army soldier.

Chu Yunfei recalled that he seemed to have seen this person in Hulugou. This person should be Zhao Gang, political commissar of the new regiment, right?

The two sides met and exchanged military salutes.

"Leader Li, stay safe!"

Chu Yunfei said: "It's been several months since you and I said goodbye to Hulugou last time. Commander Li led his troops to wipe out the Seventh Regiment of Japanese Chariots, and then led his troops to jump out of the enemy's army while the Japanese army was chasing and intercepting them in the air and on the ground. Surrounding the circle, Chu admires such a feat!"

With a laugh, Li Yunlong's tone was eccentric: "The Seventh Regiment of Japanese Chariots is nothing to worry about."

"Your 358th Regiment is the main force in the World War II zone. Commander Yan's trump card is sure to eat up a Japanese army regiment, right?"

Chu Yunfei thought to himself, why does this Li Yunlong always speak stably when meeting each other? It seems that I, Chu, have not offended you, Li Yunlong, right?

"I'm ashamed to say it." Chu Yunfei said, "My department has fought against the Japanese army several times, but we have never achieved such a dazzling record."

"However, we all fought under the same flag, belonged to the same battle order of the national army, and served the country under the command of Chairman Jiang and Yan."

"Everyone should be called brothers."

"Can I call you two Brother Yunlong and Brother Zhao?"

Chu Yunfei has always been the one who refuses to suffer, and the verbal confrontation is no exception.

What he meant by this was that although I, Chu, had never killed the Japanese army unit, no matter how good you are, Li Yunlong, you are also under the command of Generalissimo Jiang and Chief Yan?

Being pulled back by Chu Yunfei, Li Yunlong laughed awkwardly and said, "No problem, brother Chu please."

Li Yunlong invited Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming into the regiment headquarters to drink water.

Putting down the water glass, Chu Yunfei said:

"Chu came here this time with the purpose of learning and observing your group."

"Your regiment's record in fighting devils, someone from Chu really admires it, especially the battle where Brother Yunlong led his troops to wipe out the Seventh Regiment of Japanese tanks, which shocked me very much. Could you let me see your regiment's training? ?”

"Of course there is no problem. During the period when Commander Chu and Adjutant Sun observed the regiment, all the important affairs of the military aircraft were disclosed."

Li Yunlong responded with a smile on his face, and there was a different kind of flavor hidden in the smile. The corners of Zhao Gang's mouth twitched slightly when he saw this scene.

Training doesn't need to be hidden, Chu Yunfei can watch as much as he wants.

Except for the Sharp Sword Squadron, the training methods of other troops, the Eighth Route Army is similar to that of the Jinsui Army. It is nothing more than training in physical fitness, stabbing and marksmanship.

In fact, the most important thing for Chu Yunfei is to see how much foreign equipment the new regiment has.

"Brother Chu, please!"

"Brother Yunlong, Brother Zhao, please!"

Everyone went out hand in hand.

At this time, the first, second, and third battalions of the New First Regiment, as well as the cavalry battalion, were not in Yangcun.

Only the machine artillery battalion, heavy machine gun battalion, mountain artillery battalion, guard company, and sharp sword squadron are stationed here.

The county brigade has already gone out to do side jobs, and the Sword Squadron has also gone to Chenjiayu and Hanjiacun to do reconnaissance.

However, the four battalions were located not far from Yangcun. From the map, the four battalions were located around Yangcun, guarding Yangcun.

"This is my heavy machine gun battalion, with a total of 24 Maxim heavy machine guns."

Li Yunlong pointed to a row of three rows on the ground, each with 8 Maxim heavy machine guns, and said that the soldiers were training blindfolded to disassemble the heavy machine guns.

Chu Yunfei stepped forward and touched Ma Keqin. The quality of this product is definitely from a large foreign manufacturer. No matter in terms of range and accuracy, the Min 24 heavy machine gun cannot compare with it.

The national army's standard heavy machine gun company is equipped with 6 Min-24 heavy machine guns, and a heavy machine gun battalion has at most 18 Min-24 heavy machine guns.

Li Yunlong, the heavy machine gun battalion, is actually equipped with 24 Maxim heavy machine guns?Strengthen the heavy machine gun battalion?

The two heavy machine gun companies of the 358th regiment are only equipped with a total of 12 civilian 24 heavy machine guns, and neither has a heavy machine gun battalion.

The firepower of the new regiment...

After watching the heavy machine gun battalion, Li Yunlong led Chu Yunfei and Sun Ming to the grain drying field in Yangcun.

"Your equipment is very luxurious."

"It is actually equipped with a mountain artillery company with four 4mm caliber mountain artillery. It seems that they are all American."

"It just so happens that Chu also has a mountain cannon battalion, but they are all made in Jin Dynasty. There are only 12 75mm mountain cannons."

At this time, there were only 4 M1-type 75mm caliber mountain guns on the grain drying field in Yangcun, and the artillerymen were undergoing gun wiping training.

Seeing that there were only four mountain cannons in the new regiment, Chu Yunfei smiled again, thinking that although my mountain cannons are not as good as yours in quality, they are more than you in quantity.

With a smile, Li Yunlong said: "Coincidentally, Li also has a mountain artillery battalion."

After finishing speaking, Li Yunlong shouted loudly: "Pillar!"

The big and round Wang Chengzhu trotted over and saluted Li Yunlong with a snap: "Here!"

Li Yunlong said casually: "Let your artillery, push out all the cannons of your Shanpao Battalion, and let Commander Chu inspect them."

The Shanpao camp is just there, there is no need to hide it, and showing the muscles upright can dispel other thoughts of some people, so that cats and dogs will not jump out to look for it.

"Yes!" Wang Chengzhu turned around and picked up his whistle to blow.

The artillerymen who heard the whistle hurried over to assemble and lined up neatly on the valley field.

"Push out the cannons."

"Move fast, fast!"

Wang Chengzhu's voice roared, and the artillerymen dispersed in a rush, and ran quickly to the houses around the grain drying field, and there was the sound of knocking doors.

Chu Yunfei's expression was full of surprise.

No way.

No way.

Could it be that Li Yunlong really had a mountain artillery battalion?

As the door of the house was pushed open, a 75mm mountain cannon was pushed out from the house without a threshold by the artillery of the new regiment.

In less than 3 minutes, all the American mountain cannons of Xinyi Regiment were neatly placed on the field.

Originally, the Xinyi Regiment only had 20 mountain cannons, but after shooting down 2 planes in the Guanjianao battle, Chen Feng added 6 more to the Xinyi Regiment, and now there are a total of 26 mountain cannons.

Chu Yunfei and Sun Mingmo counted twice, there were a total of 26 mountain cannons, and they were dumbfounded.

You call this the Mountain Cannon Camp?
This new group is too rich, right?

An infantry regiment, actually equipped with a mountain artillery regiment?
