Wasteland Commander

Chapter 110 Capacity and Changes

 When Ye Fan was about to start a violent attack, he got another reminder from Nana.

“The troops under the commander’s command exceed the establishment of a battalion and are promoted to a regiment. Please ask the commander to increase the number of troops.”

 Ye Fan touched his chin and began to calculate.

 Now he has 550 red alert units in one battalion, which is called a mechanized infantry battalion.

 Generally speaking, a regiment should have three mechanized infantry battalions as the main force of the team.

But the problem is that his current regiment is a mixed-arms regiment. It has tanks, rocket launchers and mortars. In the future, it will also build an airport to send out planes. The air force is also part of the regiment's establishment.

Moreover, the size of many troops will need to be expanded, such as medical troops and cooking troops, which should be upgraded to a company.

There are not enough cooking staff in the base now. Even if the survivors prepare their own food, a full camp under Ye Fan plus some workers in some buildings will already have 700 to 800 people. Three cooking classes are obviously not enough. .

There is also its own security platoon, which should also be turned into a security company.

 In addition, regiment-level units must have directly affiliated companies, which serve as the basic support force for the regiment headquarters.

 After all, many officers will appear in the future, and they will all need escorts.

There is also an engineering unit, which should also be expanded to a company, whether it is construction or road laying and so on.

 Ye Fan picked up the pen and calculated.

Three mechanized infantry battalions of 1,650, one guard company, one engineer company, one direct company, as well as the health team and cooking team are also company-level structures, which will add another 650 people.

 There should be about 300 tanks, artillery, and air defense troops.

 What will happen after the Air Force comes out?

  Will there be airborne troops?

There are also logistics personnel who are part of the team establishment. Three thousand people are definitely not enough.

“About 4,000, it will be a strengthened regiment, and there will be room for any additional units to be introduced in the future.”

“Confirmed, the number of Dawn Legion-level units is four thousand.”

 After setting the number of members for the group, Ye Fan started production.

 He is now operating three fronts at the same time.

The arsenal over there is still under construction, and the 250,000 gold in hand is needed to strengthen the army.

 First of all, Ye Fan built two tanks.

The Type 15 light tank is currently the most advanced light tank equipped by the Qin and Han armies, but Ye Fan doesn't know the specifics yet. Thinking about it, he knows that it is definitely a powerful combat weapon. Let's try two first.

 Forty thousand gold.

 The Type 63 towed rocket launcher Ye Fan thinks this thing is particularly good, with long-range fire coverage.

 In modern warfare, the number of people no longer plays a decisive role. High-tech weapons are the most powerful.

This thing is not expensive, it costs 6,000 per door. Five doors will be made first.

 Thirty thousand gold.

 Then add soldiers to the company.

 Since the second battalion has its barracks, let’s produce soldiers first.

 The army soldiers that used to take two minutes can now be produced in one minute, and the mobilization soldiers that can be produced in one minute can be produced in thirty seconds.

  Ye Fan directly added three companies of basic infantry units at one time.

 These two types of soldiers have eight soldiers in a squad, twenty-four in a platoon, and seventy-two in a company.

 The basic infantry of three companies is 216.

 Thirty-two thousand four hundred gold.

 In addition to the basic units, there are many expensive units, but Ye Fan does not have much money and cannot produce them all.

 He first built ten heavy machine guns and ten flamethrower warriors.

 These are very lethal to zombies and cost a total of 25,000 gold.

 Then there are ten snipers, specially used to shoot mutant zombies, and another eight thousand gold.

 After these items were produced, Ye Fan only had more than 110,000 yuan left in his hand.

 The second battalion's military dogs and cooking platoon were replenished, and the cash was barely 110,000.

“That’s almost it. We still need to save money to buy bullets when the arsenal comes out. Otherwise, we will run out of bullets at the critical moment, and I’m afraid it won’t work with a bayonet.”

Ye Fan's current battalion strength, if it is fully equipped with tanks and tanks, will not be able to win three or four hundred thousand.

It's just that his current organization is a bit chaotic. After this incident, he will conduct a military reform and completely reorganize the regiment.

 There is no such time now. From midnight when the birth started to noon the next day, Ye Fan was so excited that he didn't even eat.

Not to mention the constant flow of soldiers out of the barracks, when the first tank appeared, Ye Fan cheered excitedly.

 The chariot siege door opens, and the first tank of the Dawn Army officially joins the battle sequence!

 Armor, turret, anti-aircraft machine gun, tracks.

 The rumbling sound gives people an extraordinarily reliable feeling.

Wearing a cape, Ye Fan stood in the wind and waited until the tank drove in front of him.

 The hatch of the tank opened, and the soldiers came down to report to Ye Fan.

“Tank commander Zhou Tao reports to the commander!”

 Following Zhou Tao were two soldiers, and there were three soldiers in a tank.

Ye Fan returned a military salute: "Tell me about the situation of your car."

“Okay sir, we are driving a Type 15 light tank with a crew of three. The vehicle has a total weight of 35 tons and a body length of 7.5 meters.”

“Equipped with a 105mm main gun and a 12.7mm anti-aircraft machine gun. In the starless state, the main gun can automatically load 20 rounds of ammunition per day, and the machine gun can load 3,000 rounds of ammunition. It will be automatically refreshed 24 hours a day.”

“The entire vehicle is covered with double-layer composite armor, which can effectively resist the fire of hand-held anti-tank weapons. It has a maximum driving speed of 90 kilometers per hour, a maximum range of 500 kilometers, and a wading depth of 1.3 meters!”

 Hearing Zhou Tao's introduction, Ye Fan's eyes lit up.

 Hey guys, this is just a light tank, it’s such a steel monster.

With a weight of 35 tons and double-layer composite armor, this guy is almost unthreatening when facing zombies.

  The number of 20 rounds of artillery shells is already very good. After all, the red alert unit can be upgraded to stars.

I don’t know how powerful this tank will be if it is upgraded to three stars.

 In the game, tanks are obviously weakened. They are often blown up by a few infantrymen with guns. Are they still tanks?

 That won't happen in reality. It's obvious that this thing cannot be competed by infantry units.

 The first tank appeared, then a second one.

 The commander of the second tank was named Wu Ling. When he met Zhou Tao, the two soldiers were obviously not convinced by each other.

 The same type of troops, the same model of tanks, they seem to be competing on the battlefield to see who can kill more enemies.

 After the tank is the Type 63 107mm towed rocket launcher.

 One was built in an hour, and Ye Fan inspected it carefully.

 A rocket launcher is equipped with two warriors to operate it.

 This is not a large vehicle-mounted rocket launcher. It has two wheels and a traction part for the vehicle to tow.

 The top is a rocket launcher with 12 muzzles.

  It can launch 12 rockets at one time and carry 24 rockets per day.

 The maximum range reaches 8500 meters.

This is a lightweight rocket with high quality and low price. It is definitely a super killer for lightly armed vehicles, ordinary people and ordinary zombies.

 Carpet bombing.

 Everything within the range is dawn!

 Ye Fan had a hunch that these five rocket launchers would become the main weapons against zombies.

 Ye Fan did not equip the company with rocket launchers, he wanted to gather these things together.

 A blow is a full-scale blow, which is more powerful.

After watching the rocket launcher, it was already the afternoon of the next day. Ye Fan glanced at the radar and found that the dense group of zombies had entered the radar range.

Zombies are advancing along the road on the edge of Qixing River, and the number is simply uncountable.

 According to the forward speed, it is expected to arrive at Shuguang Army City tomorrow morning.

“Let’s take a rest first. The arsenal will be out in the evening, ready to make bullets.”

Ye Fan was really tired after not sleeping all night, so he ate something and lay down to rest.

 Sleeping from about two o'clock to six o'clock, Zhuge Yunxue came to Ye Fan's bedroom and woke up Ye Fan.

 “Sir, wake up.”

Ye Fan's left eye opened slightly.

"Huh? What's wrong? It's so scary, so cold, why is it so cold...?"

Ye Fan was shivering on the bed, as if he was having a nightmare, but his hands were open.

Zhuge Yunxue immediately and considerately pulled up the quilt and covered Ye Fan tightly: "Sir, if you cover yourself with the quilt, you won't feel cold anymore."

Ye Fan opened the quilt, wiped the sweat from his head, and woke up quickly.

 “Tell me what’s going on.”

“Those people from the Survivor Alliance have made some changes. The personnel they sent secretly have arrived outside the water gate of Dawn City, and it seems that they are about to launch an attack.”

  Thanks to the book friend (Zhuo Yichen) for the 4,500-coin reward for being promoted to the helm, and thanks to the book friend (Fu Vqiang) for the 1,000-coin reward (the friendship is like water over time), as well as the rewards from many book friends.
