Chapter 1340 I hope!(1/2)

The 28 150 howitzers were the heavy artillery seized from the Austrian army by the German Empire's full occupation of Austria before the New Year.

Although the transport weight of this artillery, authorized by Bofors, reaches 5 tons, it can push 41 kilograms of shells to a distance of 14.9 kilometers, far exceeding the 150-caliber howitzer currently equipped by the Japanese Army.

The 150 howitzers currently used by the Germanic military are basically Krupp S.HE150 howitzers, which are more important and have worse performance. However, due to the influence of Krupp, this batch of captured artillery has not been adopted by the Germanic army.

In this way, even if Tang Dao raises the price three times, it will be an extremely cost-effective transaction to take this batch of heavy artillery that is a bit useless for the German Empire.

The shells are not worried about Tang Dao. As the arms company that is best at developing artillery, Rostaff transported these artillery from thousands of miles away, and also prepared 2,000 shells for Tang Dao, and the price of one shell is only 30 US dollars.

The price of $1.4 million seems to be a sky-high price, but for the Chinese army that lacks heavy artillery and has no channels, it is good to sell it.

Of course, it is still the same rule. Rostaff will split the artillery and transport it to Fengfeng Coal Mine by special trains.

Although China and Japan were fighting lively in southern Hebei during this period, both sides tacitly avoided the Fengfeng Coal Mine Area, which was controlled by the Germans, which was dozens of square kilometers.

The Japanese now want to hold on to their big and thick legs with the help of the German Empire to exert force on the European battlefield until Southeast Asia, which has rubber and oil. Not to mention not grasping the painful foot of Krupp, even if they catch it, it will probably be a big deal.

China already has a great enemy of the Japanese, and will never easily provoke the German Empire, which has already been on the chariot of the whole people, so it is naturally not allowed to attack the territory controlled by the Germans.

It was under this delicate political situation that Rostaff started his own dance on the edge of the knife in the cheque waving by the Tang sword and his spy on the future company president.

In less than two months, under the nose of the Japanese, 28 150 heavy artillery pieces and a German-made equipment were transported to Fengfeng Coal Mine, and then the Chinese used ants to move the equipment to Taihang Mountains.

In mid-November, the 921st Division reorganized the entire division.

In addition to the 683rd Brigade and the 685th Brigade of the two main brigades, the newly built troops and columns of each branch were reorganized into six new brigades in total, with one number left as the establishment of the Independent Advance Detachment.

To the point of view of the two leaders, who can strengthen their strength in the Japanese-occupied area and fight with ace brigade like the 683rd Brigade, then the organization of this independent advancing detachment belongs to that unit.

This statement greatly disappointed the powerful generals in the 921 Division. In their opinion, this organization may have to be left alone.

What is the strength of the 683 Brigade now?

Not to mention that the Brigade Commander Cheng is one of the three famous Huangpu masters, and his level of command and combat is highly praised by the one far away in An County. Not to mention that the commanders of the major main groups under his command are all famous brave generals and powerful generals in the Eighty Army. Not to mention that there are more than one-fifth of the cadres of his army, the soldiers are veterans and elite soldiers who fought from more than a hundred bloody battles that have been transferred from thousands of miles.

Just talking about the brand new equipment that I just changed into dress a week ago, it would be so envious.

Just say that the 772nd Regiment is a regiment, in Wang Xiaoqiang's statement: his current strength of the 772nd Regiment can challenge the entire 683rd Brigade a year ago.

That's not because the 772nd Regiment now has 5 main infantry battalions, with a total strength of 5,000 people.

That's because each infantry company has 80 rods of standard Mauser rifles in 1924, 12 rods of MP28 submachine guns, 24 mausoleum guns, 9 Czech light machine guns, 60-force 6, and 3 Maxim heavy machine guns.

This is just the light firepower of the infantry company. At the battalion level, the battalion's direct firepower support company has 9 heavy machine guns and 9 mortars. The heavy firepower has exceeded most infantry regiments.

It is even more exaggerated to reach the regiment level. The direct artillery company of the regiment headquarters has 4 75-caliber mountain cannons, 4 150-caliber mortars, 4 37mm war defense cannons, and 4 20mm machine cannons.

16 artillery with different caliber sizes and functions are enough to give any infantry regiment independent combat capability.

No wonder Wang Xiaoqiang, who received the new equipment, was full of confidence and dared to say that he had fought with the 683rd Brigade, which was feared by the Japanese army. Even if the 683rd Brigade had 6 gates and 150 heavy force a year ago, it was not as good as the current 772nd Regiment in heavy firepower, let alone light firepower.

Brigade Commander Cheng had long laughed and opened his mouth. He dared to divide the captured mountain cannons and the 150 heavy force supported by Tang Jian to three main groups, so he naturally had better things.

The 683rd Brigade can now directly belong to an artillery battalion, an engineering battalion, a communication battalion, a logistics battalion, a special agent battalion, and a health team.

The artillery battalion is under its jurisdiction: 3 howitzer companies (12 75MM mountain cannons), 1 combat anti-aircraft artillery company (6 37 combat anti-aircraft artillery), and 1 anti-aircraft artillery company (8 20MM anti-aircraft artillery).

The brigade and regiment have two-level heavy firepower, even if there is a Japanese division, his 683rd Brigade can still fight him head-on.

Originally, the brigade commander Cheng Da was still jealous of the high-speed machine gun that the four-way regiment is currently equipped with, called the "widow-making machine", and planned to use the MG42 to replace the Czech 24 light machine gun used by the squad. Tang Dao, who returned to Zishan, persuaded him.

Although the MG42 has a great rate of fire, it has the most fatal disadvantage - it is too much bullet-consuming.

Ordinary squads use light machine guns, and they fight in one battle, but they shoot 300 to 400 rounds of bullets. The two shooters, the chief and deputy, can carry guns and ammunition to complete the battle.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content below! But even if the shooter saves the battle of MG42, he still needs to consume 1,000 to 1,500 bullets. For example, in the battle of Zhaojiazhuang, some shooters who were crazy actually got more than 2,000 bullets in one afternoon.

That means that if a company with 9 armies is running, it will have 20,000 armies. In addition, there will be 12 infantry companies. For the main regiments like the 772nd Regiment, there must be 18 infantry companies.

Machine guns alone would have to consume nearly 300,000 bullets, and that might be just one day on the battlefield.

Such a terrifying amount of bullet consumption, let alone making Brigade Commander Cheng shake his head and say he can't afford it, even Tang Tuanzhao himself will have a headache.

The 12 infantry companies of the four major infantry battalions of the Four Army Regiment plus the remaining combat sequences, and there are at least 200 MG42 machine gun equipment. After a big battle, just to serve this "Master", I would have to reserve 500,000 bullets. In addition, semi-automatic rifles and submachine guns are all in the millions.

No wonder Teacher Xiao He always complains that the frontline officers and soldiers are too boastful when they meet him. Even the production line of the bullet branch of the Sihang Regiment Arsenal is not stopped for 24 hours, the workers work in two shifts, and the machines are resting, and not much inventory is left in half a year.

Dare you believe that an arsenal that can produce 800,000 bullets a month can store less than 2 million bullets in a year?

Of course, this has something to do with Tang Dao's idea that the recruits must be trained in large quantities in live ammunition. In addition, it is normal for a friendly army such as the 921st Division, the 38th Army, and the 12th Division to consume millions of bullets in a year.

Everyone wants good weapons, but with the strength of the current small arsenal in the Eighty Army, it definitely cannot afford the MG42, the bullet-swallowing beast.

So, in Tang Dao's words: It's like falling in love. If you love someone again, the person who eats and picks his feet, the person who reads books and sings a mountain song, the person who just wants to sleep and snores, it's easy to fall in love and difficult to stay together, and the most important thing is that it's right!

Although the Czech light machine gun has a low firing rate, it does not require much bullets, and its performance is enough to suppress the Type 96 light machine gun currently equipped by the Japanese army.

The countless battlefields in time and space have proved that this machine gun is very suitable for the current Chinese army!

"Don't think your child is not old, he has a rich experience in love and marriage! To be honest, have you ever been stealing food on his back?" Seeing that Tang Tuanzhao had such a rich set of life experience even with weapons and equipment, the commander Cheng Da stared at the boss with a huge eye.

To be honest, although the brigade commander Cheng is in his early 30s, he is still a novice in love and marriage. Even if he had a marriage once, he was together because of like-mindedness. There will be so many future butterflies like Tang Dao.

At this time, it is already an extremely amazing breakthrough for people to break through the constraints of their families and have the power of choice to find the person they like.

"Don't tell me, you don't know that Dan Tai's temperament. I dare to let her down. I guess the title of the anti-Japanese hero leader is not good, and he will be scolded to death by everyone in the world. I guess only the Japanese stand aside and slapped her." Tang Dao rolled his eyes, very self-aware.

"Then what happened to you and that little foreign girl? I heard that the American lady is a little confused with you." Brigade Commander Cheng changed his smile, but he was rarely serious.

"That's the God of Wealth in my Four-Enterprise Group. Without her, where do you think the food and precision machine tools come from? Moreover, when China is in such a difficult time, I was busy messing with Japanese people, so I didn't have the time and energy to cling to those with an alien woman." Tang Dao rubbed his nose and could only answer with a wry smile.

"I naturally know you, but since ancient times, beauties love heroes. You don't have the heart to stop others from not having the heart. I am your brother and comrade in personal relationships. You and you are comrades and comrades at work, so I will take this opportunity to tell you. Keeping an appropriate distance is respect for yourself and others, especially since you have now become a benchmark for China's anti-Japanese war. You must not fall in love with men and women!" Chief Cheng Lu warned earnestly.

"Well! I can save this principle. Brother Cheng, please rest assured. Mingyue also knows about Laura and me. She doesn't worry about me, and I will never let her down." Tang Dao nodded.

"Okay!" Seeing that Tang Dao was speaking sincerely, Commander Cheng no longer had a serious face.

This is also a very rare official warning to Tang Dao's private life. Tang Dao is really very important to the battlefield in North China and the Eighty Army.

Although Brigade Commander Lian Cheng didn't know who the independent advancing detachment, which was approved by the An County headquarters and vacant, would eventually fall into the end, based on his understanding of the leaders, this organization was probably reserved for someone.

In addition to the Four Lines Regiment, looking at the troops below the 80th Group Military Division, who can have the level of facing the enemy head-on with the 683rd Brigade, which has been fully equipped with a fully equipped brigade?

It almost marked that in the minds of the leaders, this young soldier who emerged in the War of Resistance Against Japan had the importance of being comparable to those of them.

The love between men and women was originally a trivial matter in the face of the magnificent national war, but as the guide of Tang Dao, Commander Cheng naturally did not want to see Tang Dao overturned it.

"Hehe, then, in addition to bringing me such a big surprise to me during this trip to Tianjin City, are there any other gains?" Commander Cheng smiled and pulled the topic in another direction.

"Of course, this time, in addition to going to Krupp to find Mr. Rostaff to finalize this batch of arms orders, I also went to Citibank to meet Miss Laura." Tang Dao did not hide it.

After being introduced by Commander Cheng to join the party during the New Year, Tang Dao reported to Commander Liu one by one on the work he had done outside the battlefield over the years.

The Sixing Group has developed almost leap forward over the past year, and the reason for the crazy import of various weapons and equipment has finally been revealed.

Using a drug invention to make crazy earnings in the South American continent thousands of miles away is enough to make the big guys dumbfounded.

However, Tang Dao's ability to use negotiations with the Japanese was to establish relationships with the senior executives of the largest arms dealer in the German Empire. He would "cross" the direct heirs of the Rockefeller family if he had some money, which made a group of uncles sincerely sigh: It's great to be young!

"It is not only young, but also handsome, and the most important thing is to have strength! That little guy is such a young man with three abilities." It was the one who smiled and summarized Tang Dao.

Tang Dao's thoughts returned to the day he met Laura.

On the third day of arriving in Tianjin, a Tang sword in a suit walked into the headquarters of Citibank in Tianjin.

In order to avoid being aware of people, Laura did not go downstairs to greet him in person. Instead, after Tang Dao as a customer needed to withdraw a quota of more than US$100,000, the senior manager took Tang Dao to the general manager's office.

"Tang, long time no see! I couldn't attend your wedding in person last time, sorry!" The moment Laura, sitting on a large chair, closed the door, a trace of gloomy flashed in her blue eyes, but she still greeted Tang Dao generously.

"Miss Laura, long time no see. My wife and I like the gift you gave me very much. She asked me to express my gratitude to you! This is the return gift from my husband and I." Tang Dao took out a small box from his arms and handed it over.

"Oh! My God, this is a masterpiece of nature that combines the charm of Eastern culture, and I really like it."

Although he was the heir to the big family, Laura never pretended and opened the box in front of Tang Dao.

It contained a jade jade Buddha, a gift from Mrs. Dan Tai. It was originally intended to give it to her first grandson, but Dan Tai Mingyue felt that in such a war era, children climbing high and low in the countryside every day would be easily damaged, and they would inevitably be in the nursery school with their comrades' children. Don't look unique just because of a precious jade Buddha.

I heard that Laura likes Eastern culture. The last time she made her move, she had hundreds of the latest Germanic submachine guns, worth more than 100,000 yuan. This jade Buddha worth tens of thousands was just used as a return gift.

"Tang, is there a saying in China: men wear Guanyin and women wear Buddha?" Laura happily placed the green jade Buddha under her neck. "Isn't it beautiful?"

South Americans are already well-developed, and their skin was even tighter and fair when they were young. A large area of ​​snow-white and delicate green made them look like Tang Tuanzu a little dizzy. They talked like him on weekdays, but at this moment they were a little speechless for a moment.

Seeing that Tang Dao, who had always had a certain gaze, had a wandering look at that moment, a smile also appeared on the corner of Laura's mouth.

In front of this straight man, she finally regained a little confidence.

"I like this gift very much, but this does not mean that I will make unreasonable concessions in the negotiations after a while. Tang, please understand!" Xiao Yangniu asked Tang Dao to sit down, looked at Tang Dao with blue eyes and said seriously.

At this moment, Laura was still Laura, but she was no longer Miss Laura, but Laura's general manager in charge of all matters in the Rockefeller family's Far East Branch.

"I need food, more machine tools and these weapons! But your company will definitely be satisfied with the conditions I pay." Tang Dao didn't care and gave his answer formally.

The chips Tang Dao took out were still the design drawings.

In addition to the "Iron Fist" anti-tank bazooka that had been handed over to Rostav and the Bazuka bazooka invented from the United States, Tang Dao also took out a shotgun and ammunition that completely surpassed the Second World War.

The Americans prefer shotguns and use them on the Pacific battlefield where they compete with the Japanese army for control of the island.

However, the ammunition they used was too small and they completely lost the style of the shotgun.

Tang Dao provides two types of ammunition, one is a combustion type filled with a large number of magnesium particles, which will be called the "dragon breath bomb" with sparks and lightning in the future, and the other is the armor-breaking bomb specially used by the military and police to break obstacles in the future.

Tang Dao's requirement is that this armor-breaking bomb can break 12mm steel plates at a distance of 200 meters.
