Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

Two days after the deputy commander-in-chief announced the official end of the first phase of the attack mission, the three main forces at all levels gradually withdrew to safe bases.

It's nine o'clock in the morning on the 29th.

At this time, Huang He was having breakfast in the cafeteria, and Zhang Wanhe, who was sitting next to him, was talking energetically about what he had seen and heard recently.

There was a circle of comrades from the Logistics Department around them who were holding their breath and listening intently. Whenever something dangerous was mentioned, bursts of exclamations would arouse.

Suddenly, Wang Dexing broke in through the door.

This reckless move shocked everyone. Just when Zhang Wanhe was about to say a few words, he suddenly saw the folder in the other person's hand.

The nearly forty-year-old head of the logistics department burst out with astonishing speed. He jumped up from his stool and rushed to Wang Dexing's side.

Then he grabbed the folder and opened it, carefully reading the contents of each page.

Seeing that the usually steady minister looked like a different person, everyone vaguely guessed the contents of the document.

Two minutes later, Zhang Wanhe patted his thigh excitedly. When he raised his head, everyone saw tears in his minister's eyes.

"Comrades! The first stage of the Hundred Regiment War! We have achieved a major victory!"

After hearing this, the cafeteria burst into warm applause and cheers. Everyone hugged each other and shed tears of excitement.

Before Huang He returned to the base area, the pressure on the Logistics Department was always great.

As a department that supplies various military supplies to frontline soldiers, comrades have always felt guilty for insufficient production capacity.

But now everything has changed. The Logistics Department can not only raise livestock to improve food for the troops, but also produce various new weapons.

Everything is moving in a good direction, and everyone is full of expectations for life.

Everyone in the cafeteria stood up in unison, and they applauded towards Huang He, expressing their respect for the most selfless deputy minister in the ministry.

Huang He stood up with a smile and saluted everyone.

"Victory belongs to each of us, comrades are all well done!"

————————

After separating from his enthusiastic comrades, Huang He jogged back to the laboratory. He closed the door and sat at his desk, opened the folder and started reading from the beginning.

Compared with the Hundred Regiment War in my memory, the first stage has undergone earth-shaking changes.

In terms of time alone, the first stage of the original history took a full twenty days, of which the key task of the first ten days was to destroy the Japanese traffic lines and destroy the Shotai Road.

But after the operation started, the progress of the troops at all levels was a bit slow compared to the expected progress, and a lot of time was spent on attacking difficulties.

After all, the Eighth Route Army had a serious shortage of equipment and ammunition in history. From 1937 to the Hundred Regiment War, it fought the Japanese for almost three years, and the entire army consumed no more than 15 million rounds of ammunition.

This also includes the parts of reloading bullets and preserved fruits from the Kuhaha period.

Coupled with the lack of heavy weapons that can destroy gun towers and bunkers, large-scale battles such as Niangziguan, Jingxing Coal Mine, and Shinao Mountain were fought fiercely, and even every inch of the front required comrades to pay the price with their lives.

But things are different now.

With the arsenal in the system and the arsenal of the logistics department operating at full capacity, the three main forces exchanged shotguns for cannons and became the Eighth Route Army's coveted weaponry.

In order to stifle the phobia of lack of firepower that has already begun to appear.

For the first phase of the attack plan alone, Huanghe prepared 10 million rounds of 7.5x54mm and 5 million rounds of Japanese and German bullets for the troops.

This makes the three main infantrymen have an astonishing 150 rounds of rifle ammunition per capita. Not counting weapons, the weight of the bullets alone reaches about 3.5 kilograms.

If the comrades of the Logistics Department had not produced a new type of carrying equipment, it would not even be convenient for the soldiers in the frontline troops to carry it.

This level has surpassed the current Xiaori and Sandezi infantry, and is even comparable to the Chou Kingdom that participated in the war later.

You must know that the M1 Garand used by the ugly national football team is a semi-automatic rifle.

Compared with the MAS-36 human-powered semi-automatic used by the Eighth Route Army, that thing consumes more bullets.

With sufficient ammunition and new weapons, the main force does not need to be restrained when performing tasks.

This led to the fact that most of the hard bones in history were eliminated by the soldiers on the night of the 20th.

Even after the first phase of the attack, most of the troops have begun to change their combat methods.

Not only has the ability to attack difficult situations been greatly enhanced, but I have also gained experience in fighting encounters and positional warfare.

As for the last ten days of the first stage in history, the three main forces were originally responsible for the enemy's counterattack.

Due to the strict confidentiality of the Eighth Route Army, the Japanese knew almost nothing about the major military deployment of the troops.

This resulted in all communications between them being interrupted from the 20th to the 22nd, and they were in chaos.

But after the 23rd, the Japanese still woke up.

The master of swordsmanship, Yoshio Shinozuka, sensed that this was a fatal blow as if he had been stabbed in the heart by a knife, and immediately thought of a way to rescue Shotaji.

But here comes the problem. The three independent mixed brigades of the First Army have been defeated one by one, and they are in a dilemma with no available troops.

Shinozuka Yoshio's main force, the three B divisions, are still located near Mount Nakajo.

By the time the Japanese support troops arrived on the battlefield, the Eighth Route Army had already begun to retreat.

Although the Japs caused a little trouble to the troops during those ten days, it was acceptable compared with the results achieved.

What's even better now is that the three main forces directly skipped the step of dealing with the Japanese counterattack, and achieved the first stage goal in just nine days.

Because the troops attacked and broke through the attack so quickly, the main Japanese force of the North China Front did not react at all.

The enemy's support troops were directly thrown into the air, and by the time they arrived on the battlefield, troops at all levels had already evacuated in an orderly manner.

But after reading all the battle reports, Huang He was very dissatisfied with himself. He now particularly regrets not being able to take the time to practice his marksmanship after arriving in the world of bright swords.

If Makarov's transport team could be supported safely and effectively at that time, it would not have been a waste of several days in the headquarters hospital.

If the system can be activated by arriving at the logistics department early, there is a high probability that the troops will be equipped with a small number of heavy weapons in the first stage of the Hundred Regiment War.

For example, the battle report mentioned that the Japanese 110th Division sent a light armored convoy and an infantry brigade to Jingxing for reinforcements.

If it weren't for the speed of the destruction work at Jingxing Coal Mine, Ding Wei's new regiment would definitely suffer a big loss. After all, they have almost no anti-armor capabilities.

But it would be different if there were several SA34s. As long as they were maneuvered properly and their positions were well chosen, the light armored vehicles of the 110th Division would kill as many as they came.

Moreover, the Japanese North China Front's aircraft are also a big trouble.

Although most of the bombers have been transferred to the southwest, the remaining fighter jets can also cause a lot of trouble to the base area.

When Huang He saw Li Yunlong transformed into the Eighth Route Army Superman, he didn't know what to say.

There are many people who have the courage to do this, but not many people who shoot down a plane without incident.

If each army could be equipped with a certain amount of anti-aircraft artillery, and if the Eighth Route Army could even have fighter jets, then the problem would naturally be solved.

Huang He glanced at the decision tree in the system, then at the folder in his hand, and then said to himself with some melancholy: "There is still a long way to go."

But soon there were exciting results that made Huang He smile again, such as the casualty data on both the enemy and ourselves.

Compared with the original history, this incident simply shocked Tada Shun for a whole year.

The first phase of the original Hundred Regiment War in Huanghe's memory lasted for twenty days. A total of 265 large and small battles took place, 91 Japanese and puppet strongholds were conquered, and more than 6,000 enemy troops were wiped out.

This time the Eighth Route Army has updated its weapons and equipment from head to toe, and its combat effectiveness is much more fierce than before.

Although they only fought for nine days, they fought 437 times and conquered 132 strongholds.

The number of enemies annihilated fully doubled to 13,000. Even Li Yunlong's new second regiment and Ding Wei's new regiment each killed a Japanese major general.

What is rare and valuable is that the casualties in this raid were acceptable.

Historically, the Eighth Route Army suffered considerable losses, with as many as 4,200 casualties and more than 1,600 people poisoned.

The data reported now made Huang He smile from the bottom of his heart.

The number of casualties was less than 2,000. This was mainly because Katayama Shotarō launched a mad dog-style attack from the beginning, which caused the 385 to suffer a double attack from mountain artillery and fighter jets.

The number of poisoned people was 137, which was in sharp contrast to the original number of more than 1,600. This was because some soldiers did not use gas masks in accordance with regulations.

Moreover, this raid did not just cost money but make no money. The harvest in the first stage was not bad, which was an unexpected surprise for Huanghe.

In the preparation stage for the battle, the headquarters issued a slogan of "no leaving behind" to the troops at all levels, requiring that no railroad track, no sleeper be left, and no bridge be left behind.

Later, local troops and militiamen who cooperated with the main force in the battle also added tunnels and telegraph poles to the original ones.

The soldiers strictly implemented the headquarters' requirements and collected various materials during the battle. These materials can free up the production capacity of a private factory for Huanghe.

Even these messy things cannot be used by the military factory in the system.

But after getting it to the ordnance area of ​​the Logistics Department, comrades can completely reuse it and make a certain number of rifles and light machine guns.

After reading the information in the entire folder, Huang He stood up and came to the window. He looked at the busy crowd outside and said from the bottom of his heart: "It's good now, but it will be better tomorrow."

——————————

For the next whole day, Huang He devoted himself to theoretical study.

On May 20th, he received a complete set of information on the Katyusha rocket launcher, V2 rocket and part of the information on the 401st Institute.

Everyone in the laboratory has been studying these things for more than three months. Except for the knowledge of atomic energy, they have almost overcome all the difficulties of the two rockets.

As long as there are enough materials and equipment, Huang He is confident that he can lead some researchers to find out all those big treasures and provide relevant knowledge.

"East wind, huge waves, eagle strike, red flag, red arrow, red tassel, avant-garde, thunderbolt, sea eagle, how nice it sounds."

At this time, the Yellow River was a little swollen, and it even wanted to take some gentlemen named Qian back to the country in advance.

However, after calming down, he gave up the idea. After all, the current environment was not suitable, and even Jin and Yu provinces had not taken it back.

Just when he had sorted out all the information and was about to put it back on the bookshelf, the system in his mind suddenly became active.

"Ding! The host has new trait bonuses, please check them in time."

This voice made Huang He a little puzzled, because he already had the trait.

The last time the brigade commander came to the Logistics Department to pick up artillery and send him a letter of appointment, there was already an additional "war industrialist."

Is it possible that the consultant traits in the Awakening Brave Tiger system can be superimposed? Huang He was a little excited when he thought of this. After all, the bonus of any trait was very powerful.

At this stage, both "technocrats" and "captains of industry" are rare terms.

The reason why I like "Industrial Leader" is because this trait has the bonus of an oil refinery, even though the Eighth Route Army does not yet have armored units and aircraft.

However, the aircraft is the next stage of Huanghe’s preparations. By then, it is highly likely that the production capacity of private factories in the system will not be enough to replace oil.

What's more, there is an extension oil in the rear area, so we can't just leave the treasure unused.

The crude oil storage capacity there is ridiculously large. If it is developed well, it will definitely envy Santoku and Xiaoli.

The reason why I like "Technocrat" is because this trait increases the speed of scientific research. Although this bonus is somewhat different from that in the game, it cannot immediately shorten the time to unlock scientific research projects.

But after Huang He's exploration, he found that it will take effect when the scientific research speed reaches 20%, which is a solid accumulation.

After 43 years, the development speed of the base area will reach a new level.

Just when he was about to open the system, a somewhat outrageous possibility suddenly appeared in his mind. This made Huang He couldn't help laughing. He touched his chin and said to himself:

"It can't be a "terrible giant". If you get this trait, Kang SIR will come from the rear and kill me."

Putting away all kinds of conjectures, Huang He opened the system interface to check. He found that in the character interface, his photo was beating crazily, as if calling him.

After concentrating on clicking on his profile picture, Huang He found that he seemed to have something special.

"Theorist: Yellow River

Rocket Scientist: When the rocket launch base is unlocked in the system, the speed of producing strategic missiles is +15%

Core science enthusiasts: When an apple tree is planted, the core production speed is +15%."

These two items directly made Huang He jump up with joy.

The reason why I just ignored the possibility of theorists is because the red forces in the original game did not have these two related characters, only theorists on land, sea and air.

After all, both rockets and nuclear weapons were things after 1949.

But now that he has these two qualities, he is completely confident that he can befriend Miss Qiu before Chou Country creates fat and thin brothers and little boys.
