Chapter 250

"Tell me carefully"

The general said with great interest.

In this battle, the general was more often in the rear headquarters, and he knew very little about the details of the front line.

"Hi"

The major general saluted first, then opened the notebook in his hand and said.

"We didn't make any cover up for this battle. We directly attacked their so-called base areas. In the past, we always thought that this group of Eighth Route Army wandering around our occupied area was just a bunch of stragglers."

"We stubbornly thought that they lacked weapons and equipment, insufficient training, and disorganized organization"

"But in fact, their weapons and equipment, especially light weapons, are far superior to the imperial army"

'And this kind of far superiority is not only reflected in quantity, but also in quality! '

"Quality? Why do you say that?"

The last sentence obviously raised the general's curiosity to the peak.

"The Eighth Route Army showed strong firepower in this battle. Machine guns were equipped in every squad. Moreover, the Czech machine guns are much better than the Imperial Type [-] machine guns. They are more accurate, more powerful, and have a lower failure rate."

"When the class shoots at each other, we often don't have the advantage, and the opponent is obviously not short of ammunition as stated in the intelligence. Looking at the battles in the past few months, they have never retreated or failed because of lack of ammunition. You know A year ago, when the war just started, we fought against the Eighth Route Army, and most of them retreated shortly after the battle because of lack of ammunition.”

"Czech machine guns do have advantages"

The general nodded, and he looked at the major general, his question just now was not answered.

"Most of the enemies also use [-]-type rifles. We also seized a large number of enemy weapons in this battle. I compared this batch of weapons with our army's weapons and came to a very interesting conclusion. in conclusion"

Speaking of this, the major general paused before continuing.

"After a comparison of a thousand rifles, the quality of the Type [-] rifles used by the Eighth Route Army is far superior to the Type [-] rifles of the Empire"

"Whether it is the production materials, or the accuracy of the gun, or the failure rate, the [-]-style rifle of the Eighth Route Army is a complete victory"

The major general's words were full of surprise.

"The quality of the Type [-] rifles used by the Eighth Route Army is far superior to that of the Empire?"

The general is also a little unbelievable.

"Yes, compared to the weapons made by the Empire, the weapons used by the Eighth Route Army are comprehensively superior, and not one or two, but all of them. Every gun of the enemy is absolutely high-quality"

"If the empire wants to produce the same level of weapons, it will be hundreds of times more expensive than the existing guns"

The major general emphasized the quality gap in a comparative way.

"Can you be sure it was produced in that country?"

The general squinted his eyes, the superior quality of the weapons convinced the general that these weapons came from abroad, but which country surpassed the empire so much?America or Germany? .

"I don't know. The inscriptions on the weapons are in Japanese, and the production method is exactly the same as that of the Empire. If the quality is not too good, I almost think it was produced by the Empire."

The major general smiled wryly.

When he saw that batch of weapons for the first time, he immediately thought that they were produced by the factory in the empire, because they were so similar. The craftsmanship and design can be imitated, but the cultural style is difficult to imitate. Only workers who are familiar with the culture of the empire can produce weapons of this style, but with the strength of the empire, it is impossible to produce weapons of this quality.

After the battle, they collected more than 2000 guns, and these more than 2000 guns were of almost the same high quality. Seiko production capacity, the cost of producing such a rifle is comparable to that of an infantry gun.

"Notify the special high-tech department, as well as the domestic intelligence department, to find out the source of these weapons."

The general paused, his eyes widened.

"Hi"

The major general nodded.

"Continue to talk" the general signaled the major general to continue.

"In this battle, there are three main factors for our army's failure"

"First of all, the terrain is unfavorable. Most of the battles are in mountainous areas. Our heavy firepower and armored vehicles cannot be deployed, and we have lost our greatest firepower advantage."

"The second is to underestimate the enemy. The Eighth Route Army is far from the stragglers we expected. They are well-equipped and well-trained, and their fighting will is not weaker than that of the imperial soldiers. Many of the surrounded enemies are full of hand grenades. Initiate a death charge"

"Finally, and most importantly, the enemy has light artillery and a large number of grenades far beyond the Empire"

"Especially the 60mm mortar, its mobility is extremely high, and a squad can carry several bases of ammunition"

"More than [-]% of the casualties of the Imperial soldiers in this operation were caused by this mortar"

The major general took a deep breath and continued.

"In addition, the information provided by the high-level special agent in the special high-tech department is somewhat inaccurate. The Eighth Route Army has obviously concealed its own information. The number of shells far exceeds the number of one million."

"According to the statistics from the front line, there have been more than 57 brigade and above battles in this battle, seventeen battles at the wing level, and three battles at the division level."

"In any brigade-level battle, the enemy fired close to [-] shells. In seventeen regiment-level battles, the enemy fired no less than [-] shells in each battle. They transported ammunition by mules and horses to ensure firepower. Persistent"

"And in the last three decisive battles in early December, the number of shells thrown by the enemy in each battle exceeded 50"

"Although most of them are 60-caliber shells, which are not very powerful, the advantage in numbers can completely offset the lack of heavy firepower. Moreover, light artillery has an advantage in fighting in the mountains. In this battle, every soldier in the empire fought every time. would be hit by an average of more than twenty shells"

"It is generally estimated that the Eighth Route Army used more than 300 million rounds of just two types of mortar shells in this battle."

"Moreover, the shells used are of extremely high quality. According to the research of the captured shells, the internal charge is RDX, and they are all made of cold steel."

The major general's voice was tinged with horror.

"300 million rounds"

"Hexokin Dynamite!"

A number, an unusual explosive made the general's eyes widen suddenly.

300 million rounds of shells, this amount is difficult even for the empire to come up with at once.

Hexogen, the super-long-range TNT explosive, has an explosive effect [-] times that of TNT, but its price is more than five times that of TNT. This is something that the empire wants to use but dare not use, even if it is a very rich navy. , and did not dare to use RDX in an all-round way.

"We know so little about our enemies"

"We thought the enemy was a sheep, but it was actually a wolf"

Finally, the major general made a profound summary.

"Yes, these weapons of extraordinary quality, these millions of shells, and those hundreds of millions of silver dollars, these things seem to pop out suddenly, and they are all related to the Eighth Route Army."

The general also sighed together.

Originally, the empire was able to win all the way in the Republic of China with a small number of troops, relying on its superiority in weapons and equipment. Now that the advantage in equipment has been leveled, where will the battle for the mainland of the empire go?
But none of this has anything to do with him...
"Collect this information in detail and submit it to the next commander."

The general said lightly.

"Ah? General?" The major general didn't react for a while.

"Also, the remaining [-] tons of silver dollars in the warehouse will also be handed over to the next commander."

"Why? Didn't the headquarters no longer pursue this matter? Moreover, the country has begun to expand its military, and the Army's request for an increase in light artillery fire has also been agreed."

"Why do you want to give silver to others?"

The major general was a little puzzled. With these silver harvests, if the general didn't want to abdicate, no one could make him abdicate.

“Suddenly I want to go home and fish”

The general was silent for a long time, and left directly after saying something irrelevant.

The sudden appearance of hundreds of millions of silver dollars, the weird and sophisticated equipment of the Eighth Route Army, and more ammunition than the empire, all of this shows that the power behind the Eighth Route Army is beyond the imagination of the empire.

And the base camp has been deeply attracted by the [-] tons of silver, and will definitely not take half a step back. The next North China will be a mass grave for the soldiers of the empire.

Someone, or someone powerful, is fishing for the lives of the soldiers of the empire with money!

But no one can stop this chariot of the empire!
