Chapter 426 Artillery arrives
The island was not far away. Not long after, Zhao Hu was the first to step on the reef. He had to go to the island in advance to observe the terrain. Because there were no weapons on the island and all the supplies needed were lying in his warehouse. And this time there was only one boat, so we couldn't put too much stuff.
After a while, several leaders came to the island and followed Zhao Hu to find a half-open cave. Then they were surprised to find boxes of weapons and ammunition placed at the entrance of the cave. In such a humid environment, there were no traces of being soaked by salt spray. This made people surprised.
This thought only passed by in my heart, and was soon fascinated by the weapons piled up like a hill. I didn't dare to unbox and inspect the goods here. I just kept moving it onto the ship. Anyway, they believed that their leader would not deceive everyone.
After getting ashore, Zhao Hu reassigned personnel to allow some squad platoon cadres in the special forces to fill the team. He first put on the airs and assigned all company platoon cadres. In the end, Mao's team only had twelve authentic team members left, and he was so aggrieved that he glanced at Zhao Hu, but unfortunately Zhao Hu ignored it.
There were not many people, and they could only barely get a battalion company, and it was reduced, so that all squad platoon leaders had to be selected from the special forces members. Of course, this was not a big deal. Although these special forces members practiced with Zhao Hu for a while, the leadership and commanding battles could only be said to be blank. Next, they could only follow their old squad leader and others to learn from the scriptures.
The team is not easy to lead with too many people. Fortunately, these militiamen have received basic training before, line up to report numbers, take orders, basic gun maintenance, grenade throwing and other knowledge. Otherwise, a large group of farmers would have to keep a few people busy to death.
The weapons Zhao Hu chose for the soldiers were also carefully considered. They were all light and accurate m1 jacks. This gun had a short range and low power, but it was light weight and easy to grasp. It was quick to get started. With the 7.62 flowering bullet made on Zhao Hu on the road, it felt like it was a treasure when it arrived at the soldiers and would never let go.
The gun weighs 2.5 kilograms, 90 cm long, is equipped with a fifteen-round magazine, and a straight-tube flowering bullet of 7.62 mm. It is more harsh than any wrench gun in close combat. With the soft recoil, it is no less than a light machine gun when shooting. Once a close-range street battle occurs, it can cover several streets!
In addition to his own shank gun and four MK grenades, each soldier also carried a lot of rockets and heavy machine gun bullets, which were all prepared for the specially established machine gun platoon. Although the large chainsaw has stronger firepower, Zhao Hu dared not play and could not afford it. Most of the seventy-nine-high-level pointed bullets that were in the warehouse were handed over to the army. He could only practice with the m60 general-purpose machine gun first. Moreover, this machine gun is not heavy. Without a tripod, it is only ten and a half kilograms, which is similar to the Czech style, and it also supplies ammunition chains, which is much stronger than the twenty-five Czech style.
Compared to the new warrior with a narrow vision, the Mao team was more knowledgeable. He walked to Zhao Hu with a machine gun and asked, "Hey, there are only a few people and no artillery, how can he fight with the Japanese?"
Zhao Hu said angrily: "Have you seen too much American equipment? Have you not seen the automatic weapons that all of us are equipped with now? And everyone has one, which is worse than the brothers' troops?"
I thought Captain Mao would soon stop after hearing his scolding, but unexpectedly, this guy's brains were not much the same as others, so he quickly turned the building: "Hey, head, I forgot if you don't mention it. Did you calculate in advance how many of us have? This person has a rifle, and no backup!"
"Get out, haven't you seen me have an extra pistol? Also, don't worry about the guns. Those who should come will definitely come. Everyone just need to arrive at the scheduled location to gather!"
"What? You mean, we have a cannon? That's great, I'll take everyone on a run!"
As soon as he saw him leaving, Zhao Hu knew something was going to happen. Sure enough, he heard him shouting loudly in the forefront: "Comrades, the regiment commander just said that we need cannons, Xiaozai, do you know what cannons are?"
A new soldier replied: "I know, I have seen the Japanese shooting artillery. When a shell comes down, a thatched hut can be blown up."
"Tsk, you can only call it a little firecracker. Speaking of real cannons, what our special forces have seen is, 360 mm? Do you know how thick it is? Tell you, it's loose and tight when you stuff your head in. If you shoot it, tsk, half a small hill will explode flat..."
"Military Mao, have you ever been playing in the gun barrel?"
"Get out of here, why are you doing drilling the cannon tube? Also, don't call me the Mao team from now on. If you can't hear it clearly, you think you're called Maodou. I already have a nickname. You will call me the hedgehog from now on!"
"Oh, hedgehog, so majestic!"
Zhao Hu was also funny when he heard it, and he smiled and said, "That hair...oh, hedgehog, how did your vanguard train be taught?"
Zhao Hu didn't expect that his words changed the code name of Captain Mao. Then, all the soldiers shouted in unison: "Oh, Mao, what a great nickname!"
The mountain road was rugged, and the group climbed hard on the mountain path. They thought they had few weapons just now, but now they wanted to throw away any extra items. The marching was so hot that the load on their bodies was so tiring. The burr was still urging in front of them, so they just shouted a few more words with the regiment commander, so they needed to practice the people to death?
As soon as a group of new recruits joined the team, they were trained by Mao's brigade. When they were resting in the middle, no one dared to make fun of them because they really didn't have the strength to joke with him.
After struggling for three days, just when everyone thought they were about to get out of touch, the destination finally arrived. In order to achieve the purpose of a surprise attack on the county town, Zhao Hu chose to march from the beach. On the one hand, he avoided all the Japanese and puppet army detective posts, and on the other hand, he could attack the enemy unexpectedly.
As for why no one would walk on the beach, and the Japanese and puppet troops were not on guard, it was because they were too relieved about their retreat, because no matter which unit dared to attack from the beach, the warships on the sea could blow them into powder in minutes!
So why is Zhao Hu so confident? He has mines and a large number, and they are all loaded with Wang Dacai's ship. At this time, he was already waiting at the only sea outlet east of Hailing City!
It was already late at night when the troops arrived. After Zhao Hu explained various matters to the Mao Brigade, he led everyone to lay mines in the outlet, which were collected from the submarines and picked out by Zhao Hu from the American warehouse. He set up a fuse and sank the anchor chain. After the entire outlet, mines were laid on the entire outlet. If the weather was good, everyone could see that under the sea, large black melons were rising and falling with the waves, like black roses with thorns. As long as they were touched, they would definitely make you crushed to pieces!
When Zhao Hu was about to walk back, he heard the correspondent behind the radio holding a telegram and ran and said, "Captain Zhao, you have your letter!"
Zhao Hu took it and immediately laughed: "Tell everyone good news, our artillery has arrived, and this instructor is a big beauty!"
As soon as he saw the eyes that emitted strange light from below, Zhao Hu quickly turned cold and said, "But everyone is not allowed to slap her, because that's my dish!"
