My Bright Sword Logistics Career

Chapter 125 Raise equipment!
"Day and night of attack, no progress?"

"Half the brigade was still injured?"

Tano's battle report made Naozaburo Okabe's smile disappear instantly.

Duoye Wing, a full-stacked infantry unit of the Imperial Locust Army, carrying heavy weapons, after a whole night of storming, let alone a long drive to take down the Independence Regiment's garrison, not even a position one kilometer outside Yangcun, the Independence Regiment's garrison. breakthrough.

Moreover, he was beaten by the independent regiment and suffered heavy losses.

"Is the independent group so powerful?"

"Is the Duano Alliance too useless?!"

Okabe Naozaburo looked gloomy.

The situation was so different from what he had expected that he had to suspect that this multi-field unit, known as the elite unit of the First Army, was a waste.

"commander."

The chief of staff on the side said:
"During the Battle of Taiyuan, the Duoye Wing defeated the Republic of China troops that were several times larger than itself several times. It is currently the elite mobile wing of the First Army, and its strength is beyond doubt."

"This Li Yunlong is the murderer who killed the captain of Sakata League in February. There is no doubt about this person's ability to command..."

"And the independent regiment under his command has additional weapons and ammunition acquisition methods, which are much stronger than the ordinary Republic of China troops, and even surpassed the second-line imperial brigade in light firepower."

"According to the battle report of the Duano Regiment, in the previous attack, the Independent Regiment had more than 82 mortars of various calibers, of which there were more than [-] mortars of [-] caliber, firing more than [-] rounds of various shells."

"The number of machine guns, each squad has two, far exceeds the imperial level."

"Since April this year, the locust army who died in the hands of this person and his independent regiment has reached 1000 to [-] people."

"It is estimated that its total strength may exceed 5000 people."

"Sixty mortars!"

"More than five thousand rounds of shells?"

"Scale of more than 5000 people?"

Okabe Naozaburo's pupils shrank.

Although Shinozuka Yoshio has repeatedly emphasized that the independent group is very powerful, the independent group is powerful and should be treated as an enemy of the same level, but he has never paid too much attention to it.

How strong is a Tuba Road regiment-level troop?

In front of more than 20 North China Front Army, how big a wave can a regiment-level force make?

Now that the data and results are in front of him, Naozaburo Okabe immediately pays attention to it.

The independent regiment has more than [-] mortars, firing more than [-] shells in one battle, and each squad has two machine guns, which shows that the firepower is very powerful, and the light firepower is indeed better than that of the locust army.

Of course, well-equipped weapons are only one aspect of combat effectiveness. If you have good weapons, it depends on who uses them. Even if a group of farmers drive a King Kong-class battleship, they can't beat a light cruiser.

This is just as important as weaponry.

Being able to kill and defeat the Sakata Alliance, kill the leader of the Sakata Alliance, and block the cluster attack launched by the Duoye Alliance at night, shows that this Li Yunlong and the independent regiment are not low.

It is an elite force.

A regiment-level unit comparable to the Locust Army infantry unit will have a great impact on the situation in North China.

Especially Tubalu, who is good at guerrilla warfare, although it will not cause the empire to lose territory, but if he fails to wipe out this army, it will seriously affect the security of North China and cause heavy property losses.

For the empire, this is even more troublesome than losing one or two alliances.

"Haven't you found out where these weapons and equipment come from?"

Okabe Naozaburo looked at the chief of staff.

He suddenly understood why Tada Hayao was so miserable.

The group of mysterious people who successively attacked the high-ranking officers of the empire have not been discovered yet, and the leak of military intelligence has been investigated many times, but there is no trace, and there is no clue to investigate.

I also didn't figure out the attack pattern of the group.

September is approaching, and with the regularity of that group launching an attack every month, I am afraid that there will be a few more imperial officers.

The investigation of the weapons and ammunition obtained by the guerrillas is also in trouble. There is no clue about the source and transportation route. We only know that the materials first appeared in Yangcun, the independent regiment station.

Now there is another independent group of early bird...

The strength of the guerrillas is also beyond imagination...
"idiot··"

The second time, Naozaburo Okabe regretted coming to the North China Front Army as commander.

"commander?"

The Chief of Staff asked Jisaburo Kookabe:

"What's next for the Duoye Alliance? The Hedian Brigade, which originally supported the Duano Alliance, has been transferred to Niangziguan because of the previous attack by the Tuba Road, and can no longer support it."

Although the old devil Duano didn't say it clearly, his meaning was obvious. If he continued to attack, he must send reinforcements.

"Let the multi-field alliance temporarily stop attacking."

After hesitating for a while, Naozaburo Okabe said:

"But continue to be stationed at the Yangpo stronghold, and monitor the movement of the independent regiment at any time."

Thinking of this, Jisaburo Kobebe felt rejoiced besides being irritable.

Fortunately, this independent regiment did not come out to cause sabotage. Fortunately, the Duoye Alliance restrained the independent regiment. Otherwise, a Tuba Road comparable to the Locust Army Alliance would cause even greater losses.

"Report."

At this moment, a staff officer ran in:
"The service department detachment has set off and is clearing the Zhengtai Line. The guerrillas have retreated."

"Yo Xi."

The rare good news, Jisaburo Okabe is finally in a better mood.

"It's not rude to come and go, order the service department detachment to clear the Zhengtai Line, and attack the Taihang Mountains..."

Afterwards, Naozaburo Okabe squinted his eyes and began to mobilize troops to counterattack.

Although Tuba Road caught him by surprise, he was too busy to focus on one thing and lose another because of his military strength, resulting in heavy losses on the Zhengtai Line and the empire's property.

However, the overall strength of the Locust Army is far superior to that of the Tuba Road. As long as the troops are concentrated, no one can beat them.

"Pick me up Shinozuka Yoshio..."

Afterwards, Okabe Naozaburo connected Shinozuka Yoshio's phone call.

The situation of the independent group gave Naozaburo Okabe a lot of shadow in his heart.

If there is an independent regiment in the Tuba Road, then it will be in big trouble.

Although the North China Rebel Army is not afraid and can even win, the problem is that in that case, the empire will have to invest hundreds of millions, or even billions of dollars in military expenditures to eliminate this group of guerrillas.

But in this way, what is the significance of the empire's occupation of North China?
Come and fight the Chinese?
Come here to consume the empire's finances?

I am afraid that the base camp does not want to withdraw from North China.

···
"Sent a message..."

In Yangcun, after tidying up the battlefield and summing up the previous combat experience, Li Yunlong took the time to press the iron communicator.

He needs some more ammo.

as well as,

Ask Brother Mo, can you get him some radio stations?
Excluding the recruit company, the total size of the combat force of the Independent Regiment has now reached 3000, including three main infantry battalions of 550 people, an artillery company, and a reinforced transport with more than 400 people and [-] Pelton horses. Even wait.

In order to facilitate the command of the 3000 troops, Li Yunlong established a cavalry communication and reconnaissance company at the regiment headquarters, but even so, he still felt the impact of communication delays on his command.

For example, in this defensive battle, due to the communication delay problem, many fighters were lost, otherwise at least more than 500 devils would be left behind.

Wang Chengzhu also raised this question,

It can be predicted that as the strength of the independent regiment continues to increase, it will become more and more difficult to command by cavalry and flags, and he urgently needs a radio station.

At least it must be assigned to battalion-level troops.

One station per battalion.

"Ah."

Zhao Gang nodded, and also looked forward to it.

With the radio station, the strength of the independent regiment can be fully displayed.

"Leader, political commissar..."

At this moment, a cavalry correspondent ran over and reported:
"The Devil's Duano Regiment has withdrawn to the Yangpo stronghold, and even the devils stationed in the villages around Yangpo have retreated, and they have begun to shrink their troops and build fortifications at the Yangpo stronghold..."

"It seems that the little devil has finally learned to be smart after being beaten up."

Li Yunlong's tone was a little pity.

If the little devil continued to attack, then he might be able to get [-] kills with this multi-field alliance, and he would be reimbursed for bullets and grenades.

"Devils are not fools."

Zhao Gang said:

"With a multi-field alliance, we can't beat us."

"And our other troops wantonly destroyed the railway facilities, devil factories, and bridges on the Zhengtai line. The devils will not be able to draw troops to support them for the time being, so they will naturally choose to shrink their defenses."

"It seems that it is time for the five battalions supported by other troops to go back."

Li Yunlong took over the conversation and said:
"The little devil has suffered a great loss, and he will definitely organize troops to counterattack, and the scale may not be small."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements right away."

Zhao Gang immediately asked the regiment staff to notify.

The plan for retreating and changing defenses has been made long ago, as long as they are notified.

"Old Zhao, what do you say..."

Li Yunlong blinked suddenly:

"Brother Mo said that he will provide weapons, ammunition, and Pelton horses to support the brother troops of my independent regiment."

"If these five battalions go back, and then send another five battalions over, will there still be weapons and equipment? The Duoye Regiment is still in front of us and has not retreated. It is reasonable for the superior to send reinforcements over."

"The Zhengtai Line was attacked. At this time, the Duoye Alliance did not retreat. The devils are still staring at our independent regiment. The threat has not been lifted yet."

"This···"

Zhao Gang blinked his eyes and said hesitantly:
"It might work···"

Rational analysis, in fact, it is no longer necessary for the superior to send troops to support.

With the development of base areas around Yangcun, the increase in population, and the abundance of supplies, not only the independent regiment, but also the new first regiment and the new second regiment are also increasing in size. Now the new first regiment has a total strength of 2000 people. Although the new second regiment has The time is short, but there are 1000 to [-] people.

With the 3000 people of the independent regiment, not to mention a multi-field alliance, and a devil alliance, it is not a problem at all with the help of positional defense.

But Zhao Gang really hoped in his heart.

In this way, you can brush equipment for other troops.

"Yes, we can do this!"

Thinking about it, Zhao Gang's eyes suddenly lit up:
"The equipment of the new first regiment and the new second regiment has already been obtained, and there is no need for it. Let's not ask Ding Wei and Kong Jie for help and let them withdraw to their respective defense zones."

"The Duoye Alliance is still on Yangpo and hasn't withdrawn yet. In this way, our strength is still weaker than the devils, and the superiors have a reason to support the troops."

"3000 people, 500 people in each battalion, can fully support six battalions."

"Good idea, it's you who paid it back, Old Zhao."

"You cultural people are smart."

Zhao Gang felt that there was something in Li Yunlong's words, but he was very excited at the moment, and he felt a rush to do bad things:
"Whether it will work or not, I have to ask Brother Mo."

Didi Didi...

At this moment, the communicator rang.

"Brother Mo said that he is busy with some things recently and will come in two days."

"In two days?"

Zhao Gang was a little surprised.

Li Yunlong was actually a little surprised in his heart, but he didn't think much about it. Instead, he rolled his eyes and asked Zhao Gang:

"By the way, the devil suffered such a big loss, what happened?"

Duoye United did not continue to attack, but kept shrinking their defense like a tortoise, so he couldn't kill the devils for the time being, but this couldn't stop Captain Li, and when he rolled his eyes, he had an idea in his heart.

"According to the brigade department."

Zhao Gang said:

"The devils organized more than 1 troops to drive away all the troops we left behind along the Zhengtai line from beginning to end. It is estimated that this army will enter our base after sweeping the Zhengtai line."

Because of the special position of the independent regiment, the superiors will notify many news.

"More than 1 devils!"

Li Yunlong licked his lips, a little jealous.

If all of them are killed, 82 mortar shells can be reimbursed.

However, Captain Li still has some sense in his heart. With the current appetite of the independent group, let alone more than 1 devils, even the Duoye United outside can't stand it.

"What do you want to do?"

Zhao Gang asked.

"You said, we are also the Eighth Route Army. It is reasonable to send troops to support other brothers' troops?"

"Good idea."

Zhao Gang's eyes lit up:
"Very reasonable!"

"Of course it's reasonable, absolutely fine."

In this way, the independent regiment quickly killed [-] devils and was reimbursed for bullets and grenades.

···
the next day.
The 772 regiment is stationed.

"How about the casualties?"

After Cheng Shifa returned to the station with the 772 regiment, he began to count the seized materials and casualties.

There is nothing to say about the statistics of the seized materials. In this battle, there are not many seized. Under the flamethrower, there is almost nothing left.

The things in the gun tower are almost useless.

Therefore, his focus is on counting casualties.

"Just one company, the seriously wounded have been sent to the headquarters hospital, and Li Yunlong is there!"

"it is good."

Cheng Shifa nodded in satisfaction.

A company with 120 casualties is 772% of the casualties. For the [-] regiment, there is almost no loss.

"Notify the battalions and companies that the battle is not over yet, and the devils will definitely come back to counterattack, and they must be ready to participate in the exhibition at any time."

Cheng Shifa exhorted.

The headquarters ordered that the 772 regiment be ready to go at any time.

"Yes."

"Captain."

At this moment, a correspondent ran over:
"The First Battalion is back."

"The first battalion is back?"

Cheng Shifa jumped up happily at first, then he asked nervously:

"Are the weapons, equipment and ammunition still on hand?"

"It's all there. Mortars, Pelton horses, and ammunition. All there."

"Haha, that's great!"
