"The Northwest Army was established to unify the country and bring a better life to all people! Just like Longdong, I may not have done it perfectly, but I believe that with the efforts of all of us, we will be able to achieve this Goal! For the rise of the nation!"
The students originally admired Zhang Yunhan, but after hearing Zhang Yunhan's heartfelt words, they were also infected. Although they did not have much knowledge, they knew that foreigners had always bullied the Han people, and the warlords only knew how to fight, and no one had ever done anything practical for the people.
"For the nation!"
"For the nation to rise!"
...Since Feng Jishan arranged with Zhang Yunhan, Feng Jishan had to use more oceans to buy firearms. Moreover, they can't buy them now. Feng Jishan even wanted to send troops to directly eliminate Zhang Yunhan. However, when he thought about the failure of several consecutive encirclement and suppression campaigns, he lost his troops. , Feng Jishan had a headache, especially since the Central Plains region had been facing a constant confrontation and his troops could not be drawn away.
That's why Feng Jishan thought of checking and balancing Zhang Yunhan, but Zhang Yunhan didn't know where his ability came from, and he actually raised an army of tens of thousands of people. However, Gan Province has been suffering from drought for many years, so conscription will definitely cause civil unrest. When the time comes, let Ning Ma If Qingma sends troops, won't he take Gan Province back again?
…
Zhang Yunhan started to use a lot of biochemical spies during this time, not just for intelligence, because he found that someone had placed spies in his army!
Originally, Zhang Yunhan planned to let Wang Chengwu go north in early December. However, just one day after the troops marched, Ning Ma got the news. This made Zhang Yunhan feel uncomfortable, so he immediately arranged for systematic biochemical spies to expand the intelligence bureau.
The uneasiness in Zhang Yunhan's heart is very strong. Now he has been paid attention to by several big bosses. Once arms appear, not only the warlords will care, but the imperialists will also care. Who is secretly buying and selling arms? They want to find out. This is a move. had their cake.
Zhang Yunhan was not afraid, mainly because he was afraid that these people would suddenly unite against him.
So I planned to get more spies. Spies came from various countries. So, within a few days, an arms company called Zeus Arms Company appeared near the Jincheng headquarters. Many foreigners were working, coming in and out, and there were actually Soldiers from the Northwest Army stood guard for them. This was big news.
Feng Jishan, Yan Baichuan, Bald Zi, and Xiaoli all immediately sent people to contact the Zeus Arms Company.
According to the information obtained, the Zeus Arms Company was established by the nobles of the former Tsarist Russian Empire, the Jewish people, the Bald Eagle plantation owners, and wealthy Nanyang businessmen. It is currently cooperating with Zhang Yunhan, and its main trading weapons are rifles and machine guns. Cannon shooting, mountain cannon.
The imperialists who saw this news breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out that a few small nobles united to cause trouble. That was nothing. Anyway, the money was kept in their own pockets.
So the matter was settled, but Feng Jishan, Yan Baichuan and the principal contacted the arms company several times for various reasons, just to get close. And Xiaoli was even more outrageous. In their opinion, China was their target. This kind of behavior of funding the enemy was very annoying. Soon some ninjas came to cause trouble and were destroyed by the group.
When Zeus Arms Company attracted the attention of many forces, Zhang Yunhan immediately arranged for the Intelligence Bureau to conduct a comprehensive investigation of the surrounding areas and the army.
There are fewer people in the army, but biological and chemical soldiers are not omnipotent, so they still found a lot of people. These people were shot on the spot because the evidence was conclusive.
After Yifan was cleansed, the sense of surveillance around him really disappeared.
In January 1928, the first reorganization of the Northwest Army was completed.
The army has more than 70,000 people, with five divisions and two brigades under its jurisdiction.
The new infantry division is a combat unit containing approximately 15,000 soldiers. Its organizational structure and staffing are as follows:
Headquarters: Responsible for the overall command and coordination of various combat units within the infantry division. The division commander is the top decision-maker of an infantry division.
Staff: Responsible for gathering intelligence, planning operations and providing professional advice. The staff department consists of operations section, intelligence section, support section and other departments, with about 150 people.
Infantry regiment: The core combat unit of the infantry division, responsible for performing major combat tasks on the battlefield. There are usually three infantry regiments, each consisting of 3 infantry battalions, with a total of about 9,000-10,500 men.
Artillery Regiment: Two mountain artillery battalions, responsible for providing fire support, with a total of about 1,200 people.
Reconnaissance Battalion: Responsible for reconnaissance of the enemy and the terrain ahead, about 200 people.
Engineer Battalion: Responsible for tasks such as bridge construction, fortifications, road opening and repair, mine clearance and mine laying, etc., to provide support for the operations of the infantry division, approximately 500 to 600 people.
Logistics and supply troops: Logistics headquarters (about 20 people): Responsible for coordinating logistics support work. Medical company (approximately 300 people): includes medical personnel and is responsible for battlefield rescue and casualty evacuation. Transport Company (approximately 600 people): Responsible for material transportation and equipment maintenance, including vehicle drivers and maintenance personnel. Supply Company (approximately 300 people): Responsible for the distribution and management of ammunition, fuel, food and other supplies.
Zhang Yunhan didn't want to delay the war until after the Chinese New Year, so he took advantage of the Spring Festival to give Ma Qi and Ma Hongkui a gift.
…
Woohoo~
boom!
A mortar shell landed on the 2nd Regiment's position, rolling up large tracts of loess. Huang Shilin didn't care about the dirt in his mouth and shouted: "Erwazi! Kill that mortar quickly!"
Erwazi is the son of the old man from Jincheng. Because of his good physique and having attended private school for several years, he was selected to be an artilleryman. No, he is now fighting mortars in the 2nd Regiment of the 1st Division of the 1st Army.
boom!
A mortar shell flew out of the barrel, and the black shell quickly passed through the positions of both sides and landed on the other side's mortar position.
boom! !
The opponent's artillery fell to the ground instantly.
"Erwazi! Well done!!"
Huang Shilin has performed well in many battles and is now the deputy battalion commander. He now looks like a fool, brave in battle and knows how to obey orders.
In the opposite position, Ma Bufang's eyes were dark. He had launched three attacks today, but the opponent's firepower was extremely fierce! Except for corpses lying on the ground, Ma Bufang's infantry brigade found nothing. Ma Bufang couldn't understand, thinking that Feng Jishan's troops didn't have such strong firepower, but this Yunhan was actually so well-equipped with weapons and equipment. If he could get this equipment for himself, hehe, this beautiful beauty would have to change it every day.
Of course, Ma Bufang thought to himself that today he saw many people being shot in half by 12.7mm heavy machine gun bullets. That guy couldn't eat for a whole day anyway.
Dong dong dong dong~
boom! !
boom! boom! !
"Why did the heavy machine gun cease firing? What's going on!"
"Get down quickly! Brigadier!"
boom!
Artillery shells exploded nearby. If the guards hadn't protected him in time, Ma Bufang would have died.
Bah bah bah!
"MD! It's not over yet! How many times have we been shelled!"
Ma Bufang was helpless. It wasn't that he didn't want to fight, but he couldn't fight. Let's attack. The firepower on the other side was so fierce that we couldn't get through. Let's fight the artillery. There was an artillery battalion on the other side, so don't even think about it.
If he occasionally fires a mortar shell, he will soon attract a bunch of shells. The mortar has long been shattered into pieces, and so has the gunner.
