My Bright Sword Logistics Career

Chapter 210 Cooperation!

"RC?"

Before leaving, the brigade commander suddenly remembered what Li Yunlong said before.

The Logistics Department is using reinforced concrete to build warehouses for storing the new 130 long-range cannons and shells.

The rest of the bosses also looked over.

Reinforced concrete, this is a good thing!
Excellent material for building fortifications.

If during the Battle of Wen County, the troops had enough reinforced concrete to build reinforced concrete fortifications around Wen County, then the casualties of the troops would definitely be reduced by half.

least!
"Correct."

Li Yunlong smiled:
"It's reinforced concrete."

"Recently, brother Mo gave me a batch of steel bars, cement, and a batch of mixer trucks and small construction trucks that were transformed from jeeps."

"It's a pity that the amount of steel and cement is not much, only [-] tons, which is not enough for the front line, so we simply built an important military warehouse for Zhang Wanhe."

"Reinforced concrete!"

The brigade commander said something in a drawn out voice.

Based on one year's experience,
As long as a kind of weapon or material is provided to the independent regiment, so that the independent regiment has the right to control it at will, then it will be quickly obtained from the troops and base areas on a large scale.

Moreover, the amount obtained will be beyond imagination.

With reinforced concrete, road construction and bridge construction will be much faster.

The eyes of the rest of the bosses also lit up.

···
"Is it because of morale?"

Beiping, looking at the detailed battle report sent back from the front, Okabe Naozaburo loosened his frown.

After attacking for fifteen consecutive days, the locust army was actually unable to get rid of Wen County.

With the direct support of the Heavy Artillery Wing and Aviation Wing, the strength of a division has consumed a huge amount of combat materials, but it is still unable to attack for a long time, and the victory is nowhere in sight.

And the attacking troops suffered heavy casualties,

This is especially true after the opponent has brought out thirty heavy artillery pieces.

He even thought of retreating in his heart.

If it wasn't for the fact that the Jinzhong Basin was so important, if it wasn't for the retreat, the base camp would be very dissatisfied. He might not be able to keep his precarious position as commander.

He had already retreated.

However, the pressure from the Zhongtiaoshan theater, the safety of the Tongpu line, and the pressure from the base camp forced him to continue the attack despite heavy casualties.

right now,

Wen County Tuba Road suddenly retreated, leaving Naozaburo Okabe up all night.

He thought Tubalu had some kind of conspiracy!
Lure the enemy to go deep?

Sound east and west?

But after waiting for a day and a night, he found that there was no accident near Wenxian County, and the transportation convoy and railway were not attacked, which greatly relieved Naozaburo Okabe.

He also quickly found a reasonable reason.

Most of the defenders in Wen County are recruits with little combat experience, and most of them were ordinary farmers before joining the army. It is a miracle that they can hold on for so long. Now that they are retreating, it is only possible that there is a problem with morale.

After all, judging from the firepower of the Tuba Road on the last day, the ammunition reserves are very sufficient, and there is no need to retreat.

Immediately, he ordered the troops to occupy the surrounding area of ​​Wen County, consolidate the defense,

Then, the troops around Wen County continued to move southward, capturing Ling County and other areas occupied by the Tuba Road. Here, although the locust army also had troops attacking, the defenders still resisted tenaciously.

At this point in the order, Jisaburo Okabe did not issue any further orders.

Although according to plan,

After capturing the counties around the Jinzhong Basin that were occupied by the Tuba Road, he will concentrate his forces to carry out a large-scale sweep of the Tuba Road base areas around the basin and the southern section of the Tongpu Railway.

However, the just-concluded Wen County Campaign,

There is also the ongoing battle of Ling County and Fen County. During the period, the huge artillery fire and huge force displayed by the Tuba Road made Jisaburo Kobe hesitate to his plan of sweeping up.

The enemy's firepower exceeded his expectations,
The enemy's strength also exceeded his expectations,

The battle of Wen County, as well as the casualties of the locust army in the battles in other counties, also greatly exceeded his expectations.
Even if the locust army took Ling County and Fen County without heavy casualties, after ensuring the garrison around the railway line, he could dispatch a mobile force of only a little over 4 to start a big sweep.

The enemy bases are all in the mountains,

Especially in the Luliang mountain area where the enemy is heavily entrenched, there are dense forests and complex terrain. Even though a lot of roads have been built on Tuba Road recently, it is still not suitable for large troops to march, not suitable for heavy artillery, and air support is also severely limited.

On the contrary, it is very suitable for light artillery such as mortars.

A mere 4 troops can completely clean up the Tuba Road in the mountainous area?
think about it
It's impossible.

I'm afraid it's not going to be divided and surrounded by Tuba Road, and then eaten!
Even, whether Lingxian County or Fenxian County can be taken down is still open to debate.

Fen County, like Wen County, is located on a plain, but it is backed by mountains, so it is relatively easy to win, but Ling County, which is basically a mountainous area, is just connected by a few roads.

Not suitable for most unfolding at all.

Combat is absolutely extremely difficult.

"Did you underestimate the strength of Tuba Road?"

Naozaburo Kobe's tone trembled when he dug up the statistics on the casualties in the Wen County Battle.

He never dreamed that the Battle of Jinzhong Basin would be like this.

Before taking back the counties around the basin, the North China Front Army suffered more than 2 casualties, including more than [-] pieces of jade fragments. One-third of the mobile corps that was finally mobilized was lost.

The casualties were so heavy that he dared not report the truth.

Naozaburo Okabe still felt chills down his spine every time he recalled the ferocious artillery shown by Tuba Road in the Battle of Wen County.

The strength of Tuba Road, the speed of improvement, is it too fast? !

"Report."

At this moment, a staff officer ran in and reported to Naozaburo Okabe:

"The staff is calling."

"Read!"

Okabe Naozaburo's eyes lit up slightly.

Although the First Heavy Artillery Brigade belongs to the North China Front Army, because there are no stubborn enemies in North China, the establishment of the First Heavy Artillery Brigade is seriously short.

The actual number of artillery pieces was only one-third of what was planned.

Moreover, most of them are old-fashioned artillery, especially the 150 heavy artillery that is most needed on the front line. Only the Type 6000 is an old model that was in service decades ago and has a range of less than [-] meters.

Facing Tubalu's long-range mortars, they couldn't exert the firepower they should have at all.

If it weren't for the suppression of twelve 105mm long-range cannons, the battle of Wenxian might have forced the locust army to retreat.

He has been applying to the base camp for additional new artillery,
Especially the new 150mm artillery,

Not only the Type 150 150 artillery with a range of more than eight kilometers is needed, but the most needed is a range of [-] kilometers, and the power of the shell is comparable to the Navy's Type [-] long-range [-] heavy artillery.

Only this kind of artillery can provide fire support outside the range of enemy artillery fire, and it has enough power to destroy the enemy's solid bunkers and fortifications.

As for the plane...
There are too many Tuba-rou anti-aircraft machine guns, high-altitude bombing is inaccurate, and low-altitude bombing is too dangerous.Infantry can straf ground troops when they get close.

"The Third Heavy Artillery Wing of the First Heavy Artillery Brigade, carrying four Type 150 150mm heavy artillery and eight Type [-] long-range [-]mm cannons, will set off tomorrow."

said the staff officer.

"Yo Xi."

Naozaburo Okabe was overjoyed.

With the addition of these twelve 150 heavy artillery with a longer range and greater power, the battle in the Jinzhong Basin will be much easier.

If the locust army had these twelve heavy artillery pieces in the battle in Pingxian County, even if the 105 artillery pieces of the Tuba Road were added later, it would certainly not allow the battle to stalemate for fifteen days, and even pay the price of tens of thousands of casualties.

···
"Chu Yunfei wants to cooperate with us?"

In Yangcun, Li Yunlong, who was preparing to make a tough move on the devil's Zhengtai line, received a message.

As the head of the [-]th Regiment, Chu Yunfei invited his own troops, and each side sent a unit to jointly attack the devil's stronghold.

"return···"

Li Yunlong paused, and said in a more surprised tone:

"The command authority is handed over to us, and the [-]th Regiment will lead the charge."

"interesting!"

"This Chu Yunfei is interesting!"

"It seems."

Zhao Gang didn't think too much at first, and praised directly:

"This Captain Chu understands righteousness!"

"Understand righteousness?"

Li Yunlong sneered:
"Shit."

"It's just impossible."

Although Zhao Gang has been in the independent group for a year, he is obviously far inferior to Li Yunlong in terms of scheming.

"No way? Why do you say that?"

Zhao Gang asked curiously.

"It's simple."

"Chu Yunfei can't keep anyone anymore."

Li Yunlong said:
"The commander of the [-]th Regiment, Chu Yunfei, is indeed a talent. He can lead troops and fight wars. He doesn't have the bad habit of being greedy for money like those officers. He is very good to his soldiers."

"I can directly say that the [-]th Regiment is the most effective regiment in the Jinsui Army."

"But Chu Yunfei is powerful, and he can't hold back the incompetent bosses behind him."

"Since the Hundred Regiments War, the devils have turned their focus to deal with us. Chu Yunfei and his group have basically never fought against the devils, and even took the initiative to avoid the devils time and time again."

"As for us, we fight against devils almost every day. Pulling out devils' strongholds is like pulling out carrots."

"Do you think those in the Jinsui Army who sincerely want to beat devils can stand it?"

"Recently, many people have indeed joined our team."

Zhao Gang suddenly nodded.

Not counting the Kanto region after September [-]th, how many human tragedies have been caused by the series of bloody crimes committed by devils entering the pass during the four years of total war?

Blood feud has been deeply planted,
Although Guofu recruits soldiers and has the means to catch strong men, there is absolutely no lack of bloody people, soldiers who join the army to fight devils.

They will not be happy to let these people avoid fighting the devils.

Once or twice, I can use orders to deal with the overall situation, but the number of times is too many, and the troops are fighting the devils on the sidelines, and the preserved fruit troops cannot be separated from the troops.

Can't hide it.

In addition, the treatment of preserved fruit soldiers in some troops is really bad...
Just like the two infantry regiments of the Central Army on the opposite side of the 57th regiment, although Guokui himself is not clear, everyone in the Eighth Route Army already knows it.

after all,

The 57th regiment has expanded to more than 3000 people in a short period of time, and the newly recruited soldiers are all well-trained and powerful, thanks to the help of these two central armies.

"Chu Yunfei can lead troops, and the cohesion of the [-]th regiment is not bad."

Li Yunlong continued:
"He also knew that he couldn't stop them, so he just let some people out."

"But once this hole is opened, there will definitely be guys who steal and play tricks. In order to pick out these people, Chu Yunfei invited us to cooperate in fighting devils, and let his own troops be in the front row."

As an old fritter, Li Yunlong saw Chu Yunfei's plan at a glance.

"Then we..."

Zhao Gang looked at Li Yunlong.

This time, the superiors handed it over to them to decide. If they agree to cooperate, the independent regiment will also be responsible for organizing the troops.

"Since Chu Yunfei is giving favors, then I, Li Yunlong, will not be polite."

Li Yunlong rubbed his hands:
"Those who can sign up for the Death Squad are definitely those who sincerely fight devils, and most of them are veterans."

"I'm missing something!"

"but."

Li Yunlong paused, called a communications company commander and said:
"Go and inform Chu Yunfei that we agree to his invitation to cooperate in combat, but the target has to be changed."

"Change to Nanping stronghold."

"Nanping stronghold?!"

The location and information of the Nanping stronghold quickly emerged in Zhao Gang's mind.

Located near the Zhengtai Line, only [-] kilometers away from Yangquan, there is a base full of devils stationed.
