Chen Feng knew that the New Regiment captured Shouyang County and Yangquan City.
Even Li Yunlong's long-range shelling of Xincheng Airport and Chen Feng received news from the system.
However, it was top secret that Li Yunlong used the mountain artillery regiment to bombard the Japanese airport, and he did it in the middle of the night. Whether it was the senior officials of the Eighth Route Army or the Japanese army, the number of people who knew about it could be counted on two hands, so Chen Feng couldn't show that he already knew. That would be too outrageous and could easily arouse the suspicion of Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang.
Chen Feng's face showed surprise when he heard this, but then he looked happy: "I only received the news that the Japanese airport was bombed, but I didn't expect it to be you, brother? Awesome!"
"That's right, I did it. I used the precision shelling method you gave me. I placed the cannon 8 kilometers away and killed the Japanese airport in just a few rounds of shelling."
Li Yunlong nodded. Although his face was very humble, he felt very happy in his heart after being praised by Chen Feng.
After all, the more satisfied Brother Chen Feng is, the stronger the business relationship between them will be.
Chen Feng nodded and said.
"Killing 21 Japanese aircraft is indeed a big deal."
"In addition to 63 mountain cannons and 2 base cannon shells, I will give away 1 base cannon shell as a gift."
"In addition, blowing up the Japanese airport in Taiyuan is also included in the business. Blowing up the airport counts as your 40 machine guns."
"Brother, Political Commissar Zhao, are you satisfied with this price?"
Commander Li bombarded the airport and killed many Japanese soldiers and Japanese pilots.
The Japanese oil depots and arsenals were also destroyed. The aviation organization of the Japanese First Army was completely paralyzed and could not be recovered in a short time.
Blowing up the Japanese airport is worth 40 machine guns.
"Satisfied, so satisfied!"
The surprise came so suddenly, Li Yunlong's face turned into a chrysanthemum smile, and the corners of his mouth were also grinning.
These 40 plus the 60 machine guns that captured Yangquan and Shouyang County combined, that is a full 100 machine guns!
Zhao Gang was also smiling from ear to ear. The number of weapons with 40 machine guns was not a small fortune. The strength of the Eighth Route Army had increased a bit.
"As long as you are satisfied," Chen Feng said, "Then what weapons do you want to replace these 100 machine guns with?"
Li Yunlong thought for a moment and then said: "Then let's get 40 bazookas, 30 machine guns, 30 60mm mortars, and 45 Maxims."
One machine gun = 1 bazooka = 2 60mm mortars = 3 Maxims.
Although the machine gun is a powerful weapon, it is not suitable for individual soldiers to carry it.
The existing 37 machine guns of the New Regiment are mainly used to protect the mountain artillery battalion, but Li Yunlong still feels that it is necessary to acquire some machine guns to fight the Japanese infantry.
With these 40 rocket launchers equipped, it is basically possible to equip each infantry squad with one rocket launcher.
Each infantry squad is equipped with a bazooka, a heavy machine gun, a light machine gun, a submachine gun, and a sniper rifle. The rest are semi-automatic rifles with enough ammunition.
Very reasonable, right?
However, Li Yunlong felt that this firepower was still not enough.
I didn't think much of it before, but since Captain Li beat Chen Feng and heard about "the fear of lack of firepower", he found that he seemed to be more and more afraid of lack of firepower.
I always feel that this firepower is not enough, almost meaningless.
"No problem." Chen Feng said, "But this time there is a lot of goods. I'm afraid it will take two days to arrive."
"Don't be anxious, everything is about safety."
Li Yunlong smiled happily.
Zhao Gang also smiled and said: "Yes, safety first, it's good to go slower."
"Then let's see you tomorrow." Chen Feng cupped his hands.
"Brother, are you leaving so soon? I have asked the cooking team to prepare some wine, and please be sure to enjoy it." Li Yunlong enthusiastically persuaded him to stay.
"Brother Chen Feng, why don't you take your men to Yangcun to rest for a night." Zhao Gang also said.
"No." Chen Feng said, "I still have some personal matters to deal with today."
"In that case, let's see you tomorrow." Li Yunlong cupped his hands and said.
After nodding, Chen Feng led Yan Shuangying and a dozen of his men towards the distance.
Walking to a distance, Chen Feng nodded with satisfaction as he looked at the light blue light screen full of technology and the more than 40 million merit points on the light screen.
If I earn tens of billions of merit points from Li Yunlong, then I will be the protagonist!
There was a big exclamation mark on the upper left corner. This was a system warning that he was being targeted by Yamamoto's special agent team.
However, Chen Feng didn't pay too much attention. Even if Kazuki Yamamoto led his special agent team to come to the door, it wouldn't be enough for Yan Shuangying and the American team to kill him.
But Chen Feng would not take the initiative to find Kazuki Yamamoto. After all, this was a real war, and maybe a stray bullet could kill him.
It's better to live in peace for now.
…
After watching Chen Feng leave, Li Yunlong ordered the logistics transportation team and the cavalry battalion to start transporting equipment.
The total number of 2,300 semi-automatic rifles was agreed upon by Li Yunlong and Chen Feng based on the total number of people before the start of the new regiment's battle.
Hand-to-hand combat is inevitable in combat, so every semi-automatic rifle is equipped with a bayonet.
After happily transporting 2,300 semi-automatic rifles and 500,000 rounds of ammunition back to Yangcun.
Captain Li and Zhao Gang couldn't wait to take out a semi-automatic rifle for test firing.
Fortunately, Chen Feng was equipped with an instruction manual and danger warnings. When loading the bullet, Li Yunlong and Zhao didn't have their fingers pinched just now.
The full magazine of 8 bullets was quickly used up by the two men, but the rate of fire of this semi-automatic rifle was much higher than that of a bolt-action rifle.
The products produced by the system must be of high quality. Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang are very satisfied with the range and accuracy of this semi-automatic rifle.
Li Yunlong, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, and Zhao Gang, who is experienced in sniping, naturally know what this means.
In terms of individual weapons, it can absolutely suppress the Japanese army.
Although this rifle is slightly heavier than the Zhongzheng rifle and the 38 rifle, its flaws outweigh its advantages.
"What a damn good gun."
Li Yunlong felt the feel of the semi-automatic rifle in his hand, his eyes satisfied.
Zhao Gang said: "Both the accuracy and range are excellent, but the requirements for logistical support are very high. In combat, 100 rounds of bullets can sustain a soldier for one day at most."
This is still the case where Zhao Gang believed that the Eighth Route Army soldiers were saving bullets.
If you don't save bullets and open fire, it is estimated that 100 rounds of bullets will be difficult to sustain even for half a day.
"So, we have to win more battles and kill more Japs." Li Yunlong nodded, "If we don't kill the Japs, we won't have supplies. If we run out of bullets, it will be like burning fire sticks."
"That's the truth." Zhao Gang agreed, "Distribute the rifles and let the soldiers become familiar with the new weapons as soon as possible."
"Yeah." Li Yunlong nodded, turned around and shouted, "Huzi!"
"Here!" Huang Erhu ran over quickly and stood in front of Li Yunlong, straightening his body.
Li Yunlong said loudly: "Tell the communications squad to inform the battalion commanders and the company commanders directly under the regiment to go to the regiment headquarters for a meeting immediately."
"Yes!" Huang Erhu saluted with a military salute, turned around and walked away.
After Huang Erhu left, Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong also finished the gun test and returned to the regiment headquarters.
The signal corps quickly notified the order in place.
In less than half an hour, the company commanders of each battalion came to the regiment headquarters for a meeting.
Zhang Dabiao, Zheng Yu, Chen Dugu, Wang Chengzhu, Sun Desheng, He Jie, Lu Yingjun, Wang Dashan and Liu Dali were sitting on the bench.
Everyone looked at Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang with twinkling eyes and expectant eyes.
Is there a combat mission? Is there another war?
Everyone thought of the several battles of the New Regiment in the Hundred Regiments War, killing the headquarters of the 4th Brigade, attacking Shouyang County, and shelling the Japanese airport.
These few times were great victories with fewer troops, and even the brigade commander, division commander, and head of the headquarters all praised them highly. Now when we talk about the new regiment, every regiment has admiration.
Li Yunlong glanced at the battalion company commanders and instantly knew what they were thinking.
"I called you here for a meeting today, not to assign combat missions..."
One sentence made the faces of all the battalion and company commanders fall slightly. Is there no fight?
However, Li Yunlong's next words made their bodies tremble slightly and their eyes lit up.
"This time our new group will make a fortune." Li Yunlong said calmly.
"Captain, the business is done, is it time to receive the goods?"
Zhang Dabiao was the first to react, his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were sharp, but the corners of his mouth were slightly raised.
The battalion and company commanders couldn't help but commotion when they heard this. They thought of the previous battles. Almost every time they won a battle, the new regiment would be greatly enriched. Is this time no exception?
"Captain, how much equipment have you received this time?" Third Battalion Commander Chen Dugu said excitedly.
"How much equipment?" Li Yunlong grinned slightly and stared, "I'll scare you if I tell you."
"2,300 semi-automatic rifles!"
"One million rounds of rifle ammunition!"
"63 American 75mm mountain guns, three base numbers of shells!"
"40 bazookas, 30 machine guns, 30 60mm mortars."
"By the way, there are also 45 Maxim heavy machine guns."
As Li Yunlong spoke, he stretched out his palm and bent one finger every time he spoke a string of data.
By the end of the day, I couldn't even count on one hand.
"And our ammunition consumption in these battles will also be reimbursed." Zhao Gang added.
All the battalion and company commanders looked excited, this is really a big fortune!
Wang Chengzhu's eyes almost fell out of his eyes. 63 75mm mountain cannons and 3 base shells. Isn't it so exciting?
"Captain, are you going to start a mountain artillery brigade?" Wang Chengzhu's throat rolled a few times, and his tone was full of excitement.
"What are you thinking about?" Li Yunlong glared, "We are an infantry regiment, how can we create a mountain artillery brigade?"
Wang Chengzhu giggled. According to the previous rules, even if the leader was robbed, the superiors would still leave some for the new group.
This time there must be one mountain artillery battalion and 12 mountain artillery pieces among the 63 mountain artillery pieces. Two mountain artillery battalions rounded up equal to one mountain artillery regiment.
Li Yunlong continued: "The semi-automatic rifles and the first batch of bullets are already in place. Later, the infantry battalion, cavalry battalion and guard company will go to the logistics department to lead the guns on a per-person basis."
"As Chen Feng said, firepower is justice and caliber is truth."
"Wait for the follow-up weapons and ammunition to arrive."
"Our new group needs to increase its firepower."
"Each infantry squad is equipped with a bazooka, a heavy machine gun, a light machine gun, a submachine gun, a sniper rifle and all semi-automatic rifles."
The three infantry battalion commanders looked excited when they heard this. The firepower of this squad was too damn fierce, wasn't it?
The firepower of this squad is even more powerful than the firepower of the original company!
"Okay, let's break up the meeting." Li Yunlong said, "By the way, the commander of the third battalion will stay for a while."
