The day after meeting Li Yunlong, Wang Yue took advantage of the darkness to lure the three giants of the 1,000 Regiment to the Qijiang River. There was a large water transport hub here, which was usually brightly lit all night, but because of the Japanese bombing, The warehouse area here has been a lot empty recently, so Wang Yue took his fancy here.
Well, maybe it's because it's easier to be bombed than here in Qijiang County. The warehouse area is almost empty. At night, there are no lights at all. It's very scary. Several warehouses rented by Wang Yue are still at the edge. , occasionally a few groups of blue will-o'-the-wisps passed by among the reeds. The scene made even Lao Li feel a little numb. He really couldn't bear it.
"Yeah! Yeah! Yeah, brother Wang, my good brother, what are these!" Opening a warehouse, under the dim light, all he saw were green wooden boxes, and Li Yunlong immediately endured it. I kept shouting out, Brother Wang is Brother Wang, he got so many things for himself casually.
"This pile here is a pile of Mosin-Nagant M1938 carbines, five thousand pieces, and two million rounds of 7.62mm rifle ammunition. Although the recoil of this rifle is slightly greater than the Carcano M1891 rifle in your hand, they are all new guns. , very accurate, light weight, and 7.62mm rifle ammunition is easy to find, so I got you five thousand, enough for you to replace the rifles of the 1,000 regiments." Wang Yue originally wanted to insist on using Carcano As for the M1891 rifle, after all, the off-brand Carcano purchased by Tasha was not expensive, only sixty dollars a piece. But this time, Tasha bought 100,000 Mosin Nagant M1938 carbines, and each one only cost fifty dollars. They were all new guns that were produced in the late war and were immediately sealed. They were so fragrant that he couldn't help but buy them, planning to transport them to northwestern Shanxi in the future.
"My dear, it's really a new gun. The butter hasn't even been removed. It's such a good gun. It's much shorter than the national army's Shui Lianzhu, and it's more suitable for the height of our soldiers." On the other side, Cheng Shifa had already opened a box and took out a He inspected the rifle there. Ever since he came to the 1000th Regiment and saw Li Yunlong's luxurious equipment, he never wanted to go back to the 772nd Regiment. He thought that if one day Lao Li really went to engage in the navy, this 1000th Regiment would Just pick it up off the shelf, so even if Cheng Shifa's health is not good, he still works very hard every day even with a cane.
"300 Deggarev DP-28 light machine guns. This machine gun is much better than the Breda 1930 light machine gun you have in terms of reliability, power, range and firepower sustainability. I believe you, Lao Li I will like it." Wang Yue bought 3,000 DP-28 light machine guns at a price of 500 US dollars each. Including what he had before, he already has 3,500 DP-28 light machine guns. When he has more than 1,000 cloth guns, he will After the Radar 1930 light machine gun is sold out, he plans to provide it to the Eighth Route Army. As for better light machine guns, forget it for the time being. The Eighth Route Army's logistics support capabilities are such that each squad is equipped with one MG-34. It is estimated that it will be old Zhang could hang himself, and even he was worried that the Eighth Route Army would not be able to use DP28.
"I like it, I like it! This machine gun is a good thing. The two national army divisions in Qijiang County are equipped with this kind of machine gun, but it makes me envious. It's a good thing. It's a really good thing. It's just that the bullets are a bit useless. Heavy machine guns Hey, do you have any heavy machine guns?" Li Yunlong rubbed his hands and asked excitedly, "Well, Brother Wang is going to completely change the equipment of the 1,000 regiments."
"Yes, there is. It is the Maxim M1910 heavy machine gun. The model of the gun is a bit old, heavy, and has a low rate of fire. It is not much more advanced than the 8mm heavy machine gun in your hand. However, considering the versatility of the ammunition, I will I got 100 for you to survive." Wang Yue felt bitter in his heart. The 1,000 Maxim M1910 heavy machine guns he initially got from Tasha were emptied last time. He also wanted to get several more guns to prepare, but he couldn't. Because the reliability of several advanced heavy machine guns in the northern country at this time was not good, the only reliable DShK-38/46 heavy machine gun was still 12.7 mm caliber, which was not suitable for infantry use, so he had to choose. I ate a batch of Maxim M1910 heavy machine guns made in 1945. They are all new guns. For modern warfare in 2023, this thing is harder to sell than the Mosingana rifle, so a full set of machine guns plus parts It’s only five hundred dollars apiece, yes, the same price as the Deggarev DP-28 light machine gun.
"Mr. Wang, what about the weapons that were replaced? The Ministry of Military Affairs will not let us transport the weapons back to the base area. That is the equipment of a brigade." Zhao Gang hesitated at the side.
"Sell! Sell them all. If you don't sell them, you won't have the money to buy the weapons. Of course, it's okay if your superiors give you money." Wang Yue said with a smile. Since someone is willing to buy weapons at a high price, then buy them. Well, you can have weapons if you want them, but I'm afraid you don't have enough money.
"Tank, Tank, Old Li, Old Zhao, come here quickly, it's Tank!" At this moment, Cheng Shifa's voice came from deep in the warehouse, and this guy actually swung inside on his own with a cane.
"Brother Wang, what kind of tank is this? This big pipe is thicker than our old cannon." Li Yunlong came inside and saw a dense row of tanks and a row of artillery, twelve tanks. Twelve artillery pieces, and twenty Geese 5 trucks filled with fuel.
"This is the British Valentine infantry tank, with a total combat weight of 16 tons, a crew of 3, a length of 5.41m, a width of 2.63m, a height of 2.27m, a maximum speed of 24km/h and a maximum range of 145km. It is equipped with a 76.2-gun mm artillery and a 7.62mm machine gun. As far as the current Japanese armor strength is concerned, it is absolutely invincible. "Wang Yue introduced in detail that this tank was definitely a surprise for him. He never expected that Tasha would never The tank that the Far East found for him turned out to be a British tank. After checking, I found out that the great northern country equipped 2,720 of them during World War II. In the Far East, they even used this tank to replace all T-34s. After the war, the Far East These Valentine tanks in the area that had not even participated in a single battle were directly mothballed. Tasha had at least a thousand of these in her hands, each costing $80,000. Wang Yue bought two hundred of them at one time, but he just didn’t know. Do the British have so many Valentine tanks at this time? After all, the production line only started in May.
"Why does this artillery look similar to a tank gun?" Zhao Gang on the side interjected.
"It's really not the same. These guns are F-10 type 1902/30 76.2mm field guns. This is what the Soviet armorer is equipped with. The cannon on the tank has the same caliber, but the ammunition is not universal. Although this The performance of the artillery is average, but it is only 900 kilograms. It is much lighter than the 75mm artillery you are equipped with. Instead of nine, I got you a 12-gun battery, plus two thousand rounds of artillery shells. You ask Wang Chengzhu Seize the time to train the gunners, and I will bring you a gun battalion later. The tank soldiers will wait a moment, mainly because I am worried that you will not be able to keep up with the logistical supplies. Later, I will find light tanks for you and build a battalion for you. "There were many in 1940. Big things will happen, and he must let Li Yunlong have enough self-protection ability. If he were not worried about irritating Comrade Steel, he would want to get some T-34 for Li Yunlong. Damn, he can kill the city in one go, so he asked the Chairman if he was afraid Not afraid?
"And there are tanks? Brother Wang, are you kidding me?" This is not the first time that Li Yunlong was hit by Wang Yue's equipment. Wang Yue was more reserved when he was at the base, but now it's better to just shoot him. Battalion and tank battalion, you must know that these equipment are enough for the national army to organize an artillery battalion and tank battalion.
"Yes, since they gave you Qijiang County, let's just play big. If your 1,000 regiments can't make people afraid, when can we return to the front line?" Li Yunlong's arrival in Sichuan Province made Wang Yue feel He was a little unsure, so he had to let Li Yunlong leave Sichuan Province as soon as possible.
"Playing with a big one?" Li Yunlong was puzzled.
"I have prepared 5,000 tons of cans, 10,000 sets of blue work clothes, and 10,000 sets of military uniforms for you in the warehouse next door. Next, I suggest that you not only help the refugees, but also organize the refugees and organize more than 10,000 youths. Men and women in their prime, organize themselves to work, build air-raid shelters, build military camps, and build fortifications. You can completely pretend that you are not leaving and want to build Qijiang County. See if those guys in the Military and Political Department are anxious. By the way, you You can also build another runway, and I will try to get some fighter jets for you." Wang Yue suddenly remembered that the past two years should be the peak period of the Japanese bombing of Chongqing, and wondered whether he should increase the air defense force for Li Yunlong.
"We can also build more fake fortifications, barracks and wooden equipment. Xie Baoqing of the Fourth Battalion captured a Japanese spy the day before yesterday. I'm worried that the Japs will bomb Qijiang soon." Cheng Shifa reminded on the side that he was already building fortifications and air-raid shelters. Yes, it’s just that the soldiers can’t even eat enough to eat, so they can’t repair the fortifications quickly.
"When I was at school, I also heard from the superintendent that the Japs bombers haven't come for a few days. The Japs will probably come as soon as the weather clears next time. Lao Cheng, you are preparing some smoke piles like Laojunshan." "Hang on, let's set off smoke when the Japanese plane comes, and we must minimize the damage." Li Yunlong also said worriedly. After he came to Chongqing, he witnessed a bombing of the urban area by Japanese bombers. The Japanese bombers covered the sky and the sun. The fleet of aircraft was completely different from the small battles of the Jin Province's Jaap Air Force. He did not think that his 1,000 regiment could withstand such a scale of bombing.
"I'll come over next time to see if I can get you some anti-aircraft weapons." Wang Yue thought to himself that he had forgotten again. He really had a thousand quadruple Maxim anti-aircraft machine guns in his hand. It was Tasha who saw him. I got it after adding a high stand to the machine gun. Each one costs 5,000 dollars. The firepower is quite brutal. According to Tasha, many tribes have already purchased this thing to defend against drones. The effect is It was quite good, but when he thought about the brutal ammunition consumption of this kind of machine gun, he was worried that Li Yunlong wouldn't be able to afford it.
"Okay, tomorrow we will start hiring refugees to build air defense fortifications and other things. We can't go to the rear and suffer the losses of the little devils." Li Yunlong made a final decision.
