blood feud

The relevant orders were issued, and Xiao Lamei also took Bai Shujie's instructions to check the training situation of the supplementary brigade, so Bai Shujie transferred to Zhao Jinxi's office.

The office of the two of them is actually next door, but Bai Shujie has never entered it.Because if there is anything, others will report to him.

Seeing Bai Shujie walking in with his hands in his sleeves, Zhao Jinxi, who was sitting by the stove reading materials, raised his head and was a little surprised: "Now the snow outside has not melted, and the sun is not out, and it is impossible to come out from the west, but how do you Will you come to me?"

Bai Shujie dragged himself a chair to the side of the stove and said with a smile, "Don't you want to come and care?"

"Just talk nonsense!" Zhao Jinxi said with a smile: "It's definitely not a good thing for you to appear here suddenly. Tell me, which nerve is wrong again?"

Bai Shujie's face straightened, and then he said seriously: "The little devil launched a military coup not long ago, and I have already told you about the consequences of the military's control of the government. I have also talked about the danger of militarism many times. Now, The first division of the little devil came out of Tokyo, and the No.19 division was mobilized intensively, you have read all the information."

"Although there is no movement around our area at present, it does not mean that the little devil has forgotten our side. On the contrary, I always feel like the short calm before the storm. The meaning of looking for you today is to remind you Pay attention. Once the little devil makes a move, it will definitely be a catastrophe!"

Zhao Jinxi nodded: "I was just looking at the comprehensive analysis of the enemy's situation compiled by Wang Xinlan and the others. In fact, the little devil is not idle. It seems that he is intensively preparing some huge plan. Oh, by the way, this telegram was sent by Zhang Xiang's big brother It’s here, because it hasn’t been confirmed yet, so I didn’t give it to you.”

Bai Shujie took it over and saw that it was an enemy report from Jinzhou: "According to our reconnaissance, the Fourth Division of the Japanese Army has begun to land in Jinzhou, and the Eighth Division and the troops originally deployed here are gradually handing over the defense area. Begin evacuation. Details are being finalized. Zhang Xiang."

Bai Shujie casually said to Zhao Jinxi: "There is no need to implement it. The news is true. The Eighth Division returned to make up for it. This is all expected. The 33rd Brigade originally belonged to the Tenth Division. Guijian is also normal."

But he said in his heart: "Fortunately, the trajectory of history has not deviated too far, but things have been brought forward."

Seeing Bai Shujie's indifference, Zhao Jinxi felt a little strange: "I think you seem to have noticed it a long time ago, that's really amazing. If that's the case, what are you worried about?"

"Hehe, what I mean is, the little devil is sharpening his knife, so we can't just sit idle, can't we?" Bai Shujie seemed to have taken a reassurance that yes, his mood suddenly improved a lot: "Last time, I asked you to use the method of stealing the beam and changing the pillar, so we can't do it for you." Wei Chong and Zhang Er Leng transported a few heavy artillery, are they all in place?"

Zhao Jinxi nodded: "Wei Chong sent four Type 4 105mm field cannons, and Zhang Erleng sent only two of them because they belonged to the mountainous area. Each of the eight heavy artillery pieces was equipped with 2 rounds of shells. However, in order to To make up for the lack of firepower, I equipped Wei Chong with 8 Type 72 8mm field guns, and Zhang Erleng and Zhao Sanbao 75 each."

After a pause, Zhao Jinxi was still a little confused: "I really don't understand, Zhang Erleng has a regiment, and you even equipped him with a mountain artillery battalion and a field artillery battalion. Do you want Zhang Erleng to change his career to be the commander of the artillery regiment?" Also, Zhao Sanbao and Ling Kaishan’s Zhangfang Independent Regiment, you are also equipped with a field artillery battalion, what exactly do you want to do?”

"Jin Xi, to tell you the truth, I always feel that sooner or later the little devil will attack North China." Bai Shujie couldn't say clearly, he could only vaguely say: "Wei Chong's Rao'an Independent Division needs an artillery regiment, because his side They are all plains. Zhang Erleng’s Fangshan Independent Regiment and Zhao Sanbao’s Zhangfang Independent Regiment will also form independent divisions to prepare for contingencies by the end of this year.”

"I don't care, these belongings are yours anyway, you can do whatever you want." Zhao Jinxi was a little absent-minded: "The artillery regiments of each division here have been established, consisting of the 75mm Field Artillery Battalion, the 75mm Mountain Artillery Battalion, and the Reconnaissance Artillery Battalion. Composed of air defense battalion and logistics support battalion. There are 3 people in the whole regiment, 0 field artillery pieces, and 18 mountain artillery pieces.”

"At present, the five divisions of the Front Army and the three divisions of the Garrison Command are already organized into four or four divisions, with more than 12 people in each division. In addition, the two heavy artillery regiments directly under the headquarters, that is to say, do not include The independent troops in the enemy's rear now have 2.2 regular troops. If we want to pull them out to fight in the field and increase engineering, security, and medical troops, a division will have [-] people, which is equivalent to a division of the little devils."

Bai Shujie nodded, stood up, turned his hands behind his back, and started circling the stove. After three circles, he said, "According to what you said just now, two-thirds of the 75mm guns we have in stock have been used up, right?"

"That's not right!" Zhao Jinxi interjected, "You gave us Miss Zhang Yushu's Xiuyan Independence Regiment an artillery battalion, and Chen Jie's Nanman Independent Division an artillery regiment, and now there are only one-third left."

"Enough, enough!" Bai Shujie struck his left palm with his right fist, as if he had made up his mind: "The last time I discussed with you to improve the traction method of the 75mm field cannon and mountain cannon, how is the progress now?"

"Actually, it is not too difficult to improve, the little devil is too mechanical!" Zhao Jinxi nodded: "The stability of the artillery launch is nothing more than a problem with the counterweight support at the back. The use of independent counterweight support can also meet the requirements, and it is only necessary to install jacks on both sides of the front bearing."

"It is supported by an independent counterweight, and a traction steering wheel is installed under the support point, and it can be turned into a horse traction without using a truck at all. I just adopted the Type 105 [-]mm field cannon from Wei Chong and Zhang Erleng. Add a traction guide wheel, and then use the horse to pull it over."

Bai Shujie was a little surprised: "Can the Type 105 [-]mm field cannon be pulled away by horses?"

"Why can't it work?" Zhao Jinxi raised his head and said, "I don't know why, the little devil has never improved the bearings of the gun wheels. In fact, they can produce cars, so can't they just use car bearings? Of course, when launching , Be sure to use a jack to jack up the bearing and add a backing plate, so as not to damage the bearing and tire.”

"If you want to transport a Type 105 3mm field cannon and be able to fight alone at any time, you need at least 6 draft horses and 31 pack horses. The key is that the shell is 4 catties too heavy, and a pack horse can transport 6 rounds of shells. 24 pack horses transported [-] rounds of shells, barely able to support a battle."

"What does that matter?" Bai Shujie danced excitedly: "I have 70 people in a platoon, can't I be responsible for transporting two cannons? 35 people, even if it is lifted, the cannons will be taken away! Let me do the math. One cannon with 10 horses and 24 cannons means 12 platoons and 240 horses. In addition, a support battalion is specially equipped, which is a fucking artillery regiment!"

"I want to form an artillery division!" Bai Shujie dragged the chair to Zhao Jinxi and said in a low voice, "There won't be any major battles happening recently, so you should take the trouble to change the traction methods of the remaining 75mm field artillery and mountain artillery to horses." In the pulling method, two field artillery battalions, two mountain artillery battalions are formed, and a Type 105 [-]mm cannon regiment is formed! I want to pull this artillery division out and teach the little devil a lesson!"

"Hmph, half a year ago you asked me to think about how to pull the cannon, and I knew you didn't want to stay at home!" Zhao Jinxi said coquettishly: "If the mobile artillery division is formed this time, I must go out with you! You want to leave me alone at home again, and you have a good time outside!"

"Oh, it's not that easy, it's not that easy!" Bai Shujie patted Zhao Jinxi on the shoulder and said, "I'm not worried about you, but I'm worried that other people may not agree with my ideas. In the past year, I have always had a Conception. But the conditions are not yet ripe, so we can only prepare slowly.”

"I have asked Lamei to check the situation of the supplementary brigade. I can tell you some of my basic ideas in advance. I am going to form another force, which does not belong to the Rehe Front Army or the Garrison Command. This force needs two Composed of a field division and an artillery division, the number of people is controlled at about 5, and a division that can eat up little devils alone."

Zhao Jinxi nodded: "No matter what you want to do, I will always be by your side. I will do this. When do you need this army to form a fighting force?"

"Today is February 1936, 2, how time flies!" Bai Shujie counted with his fingers: "I will give you one year to form this army. Except for artillery, all other light and heavy weapons will use the latest Equipment. To tell you the truth, the new equipment I developed is for this unit and will not be equipped for other units.”

Zhao Jinxi smiled slightly: "If I remember correctly, there should be more than 8 people in the current supplementary brigade. If I draw out 6 of them to form three divisions, Gan Tong's next recruiting task will be tense."

"Jin Xi, you must remember to clarify a few requirements with everyone." Bai Shujie said thoughtfully: "First, those whose parents are still alive are not allowed; second, those who have a family here are not allowed; third Three, tell everyone directly that once they enter this army, I cannot guarantee that they will come back! No, it should be that they will not be able to come back for the rest of their lives!"

"I remember, don't worry!" Zhao Jinxi saw Bai Shujie's face getting more and more gloomy, and felt a little bit unbearable: "Brother, you don't have to think too much. Many things can just go with the flow, there is no need to think too much about it." Many gains and losses."

Just at this time, the guards came in suddenly: "Report to the commander-in-chief and deputy commander-in-chief: Rao'an Independent Division suddenly sent a task force into Rehe, and now it has arrived at the west gate of Chengde. Because there was no order, the inspection team did not Let go. Please instruct!"

"What?" Zhao Jinxi jumped up first: "Does Wei Chong want to turn the world upside down? He didn't send a telegram to ask for instructions, and he didn't get an order from the headquarters, so he sent the troops back without permission. What exactly does he want to do?"

After all, what happens next, let's see the breakdown in the next chapter.
