Rebirth of the Military Industry Power of the Anti-Japanese War

The so-called super-caliber mortar shells are mortar shells with a larger caliber than the mortar tube, also at the expense of range and accuracy (but still much better than "heartless guns", but "heartless guns" are cheaper.)

In exchange for a substantial increase in power, the 82mm super-caliber shells fired by the Independent Division this time are larger than the ordinary shells used by 120mm mortars. Its power can be imagined. Moreover, this weapon was first captured by the Independent Division.

Since the launch of the first 82mm mortar, Hu Weidong has asked the arsenal to stop other work and concentrate on production. It has accumulated dozens of rounds of artillery shells. Of course, compared with the more numerous and more powerful "heartless guns", it is only

It plays the role of "adding insult to injury"...

In fact, although these two weapons seem to be very powerful, their shortcomings are also very obvious. The poor range alone is a fatal flaw. If the enemy has guns and artillery shells to detonate the ammunition, the consequences will be absolutely disastrous. At this time, they are so powerful.

On the contrary, it becomes a shortcoming.

Among them, the "unconscionable artillery" is particularly troublesome. Ordinary artillery cannot use it. It must be installed and launched by specially trained engineers, because a slight mistake during the operation will lead to catastrophe. Fortunately, Hu Weidong had already joined the militia

He began to reserve talents for the engineering force when he was in the army. After capturing Xingguo County and seizing many gasoline barrels and explosive packets, he immediately personally conducted emergency training for the selected flying mine artillery. It has been nearly a month now.

The dozens of engineers who were responsible for firing the "heartless cannons" today were all calm, careful and meticulous when they fired the cannons, without making any mistakes. They were in compliance with the saying "preparation is the rule in everything".

In fact, even so, Hu Weidong was still a little worried. After all, no matter how hard the engineers trained, less than a month was still a little short. For this reason, he did not let the "heavy artillery" troops stationed in the forward positions during the day and found that the enemy did not

After sending troops to seize the position, they secretly deployed them into the trenches closer to the front at night. In order to cover up the noise on the position, they also sent troops to conduct a night attack. Unexpectedly, the enemy actually increased their troops and unexpectedly increased the number of "

The record of "Heavy Artillery"...

Even after such careful preparation, it was still the first time to use it, and the enemy was so powerful. Hu Weidong was extremely nervous for a while. His calm performance in front of his subordinates was just to pretend to be calm and appease the soldiers. Fortunately, the "heavy artillery" lived up to his expectations.

Having achieved great success as expected, Hu Weidong could finally breathe a sigh of relief and secretly complained, "When we have real heavy artillery in the future, we will no longer need to help you..."

Since the morale of the defenders has been defeated by the artillery fire of the Independent Division, and our own side has an absolute advantage in strength, the losses of the commanders and fighters of the Independent Division that invaded the county were not very great. More than a thousand enemy soldiers were killed and 6,000 captured (no matter how tenacious the army was)

, once the organization is broken up, it is still possible to herd sheep on a large area. (See the number of Japanese prisoners of war in Nomenkan.) However, its own casualties were less than 1,000, of which only more than 300 were killed. There is no doubt that

It was a complete victory. The capture made everyone in the Independent Division even more happy. A batch of supplies that was originally going to be transported to Xingguo was temporarily stranded in Yongfeng County due to the fall of Xingguo. As a result, it was seized by the Independent Division before it could be transported.

In addition, there are a large number of troops stationed in Yongfeng County, and most of them are elite troops, so the seizures in this battle are much richer than in the previous battle...

"Reporting to the division commander, our army has seized more than 12,000 rifles, more than 3,000 pistols, most of which are twenty-gun, more than 1,100 submachine guns of various types, and more than 170 light and heavy machine guns, mortars

There are 61 cannons and 36 mountain cannons...More than 90,000 tons of food, and more than 30,000 sets of uniforms..." the soldier announcing the news said excitedly, almost spitting on Hu Weidong's face.

.....

But Hu Weidong, who was immersed in ecstasy, didn't care at all and just asked, "Why are there so many mountain cannons?"...

"Twelve guns were collected from the arsenal and 24 guns were received from the surrendered White Army artillery.", the signal soldier replied loudly.

"Didn't the enemy destroy a single cannon? How is this possible?" Hu Weidong couldn't help but be a little surprised. This is such good luck?

"They actually said they were reluctant to blow it up. This is really...don't they know that if the cannon falls into the hands of the enemy, it will soon be used to attack their troops again?" He Huzi was a little worried.

He walked in dumbfounded.

"It is indeed very strange. It seems that they have always been like this in history, whether it is against the Japanese or the People's Liberation Army. No wonder they are called the 'Captain of the Transport Brigade'..." Hu Weidong also agreed in his heart, but he said

Shangqing laughed softly and said, "This shows that they don't regard us as enemies at all. Mr. He, you have to work harder to transform them into our warriors."

At this time, He Huzi's face darkened and he asked, "Xiao Hu, this battle worries me to death. In fact, the enemies in the city are much stronger than us. How come you dare to attack the city? And you will

With so many prisoners directly organized into battle lines, aren't you afraid that they will betray you in the face of battle?"

"The enemy is strong. If they come out, we have only one way to retreat, but they can't retreat. I just want to try the effect of the new weapon. Of course, this is the same as integrating prisoners into the army before the war.

I'm risking everyone's lives, but if we develop step by step, we will only continue to be consumed by the enemy's superior strength, and it will be difficult to grow and develop. Rather than doing this, I think it is better to take a risk and wait until the team is strong enough to have the capital to seek stability.

", Hu Weidong then explained to He Huzi the conditions and precautions for the application of the "capture and make up" strategy...

"First of all, our army cadres need to love and respect these soldiers, share the joys and sorrows with them, and care for them in their daily lives. This will be psychologically difficult for the White Army soldiers who have had enough of being beaten, scolded and exploited at the top.

It's a big shock. Secondly, our political and ideological work must be in place. If you weren't responsible for this, I really wouldn't have the determination to make them switch sides in a day or two. Both of these conditions are in vain.

What the White Army does not have, therefore we are the only ones who can capture and replenish them immediately and quickly turn the White Army into our warriors, but the White Army cannot do this. However, these two items alone are not enough, the most important point is.

....." When Hu Weidong said this, his tone suddenly increased, "We must win the war, win the war again and again!"

"I understand, no wonder you were able to pull together such a large team in such a short period of time..." He Huzi sighed. He finally understood the secret behind Hu Weidong's series of brilliant achievements since he started his army.

Hardships and dangers, the Independent Division is a team that he fought for and gambled over and over again with the determination of "failure or success"...
