Chapter 12 The enemy is very strong, and he will definitely not be able to defeat it
"A devil infantry brigade, have we ever fought it?"
Holding an independent compilation table in his hand, Master Zhang Da muttered to himself.
"Nonsense, of course you can't beat it"
"There is no advantage in numbers, the enemy has more than 5,000 men, and we are only 2,800 men when we are fully armed, and the ratio of numbers is 2:1"
"The quality of the soldiers can't be compared, all the devils are first-line permanent divisions, including two brigades of the Fifth Division, a brigade of the Shanghai Dispatch Army and an artillery squadron, these are the elite of devils who have experienced several wars, what about us? There are 507 veterans with more than three years of combat experience, 601 with more than half a year of combat experience, and the rest of the more than 1,000 people are rookies who have been less than three months old, and many of them have not even learned basic tactical movements."
"Heavy weapons and equipment are also incomparable, the other side has 6 Type 92 infantry guns, and 2 Type 41 mountain guns, I don't know about mortars, but conservative estimates are less than 30, what about us? Fifty 60-caliber mortars, this can only be considered a light weapon, much stronger than a grenadier, but weaker than the 92 infantry gun, and those two 82-mm mortars can be considered heavy weapons"
"Heavy weapons ratio 8:2, complete defeat"
Zhang Nuoyan rolled his eyes and said with a straight finger.
"However, we have a slight advantage in light weapons, the Czech light machine gun is better than the crooked handle, and the 38 large cover rifle provided by the Luo Yun brothers is better than the quality of the devil, and the quality of the bullet is also better than that of the devil."
"The 60 mortar has a longer range than the Devil Grenadier, it is also more powerful and much more accurate, this is our main firepower pillar, and there are plenty of shells"
"But it's just such an advantage, and it's useless to have too many guns, and there are only seventeen qualified gunners in the whole regiment now" At this point, Zhang Nuoyan spread his hands, and his tone was helpless.
"In the past, we were too crowded, and then we lacked everything, food and medicine, but weapons and ammunition"
"At that time, the three of them were rich when they got a gun, and the average of a gun was ten bullets, and it was happiness to be able to eat a pound of food, as for medicine, don't mention it"
Grand Master Zhang suddenly smiled, and then took over the topic.
"Now, there is only a shortage of people, nothing else, food, we have more than 10,000 tons in the warehouse (actually 30,000 tons, Luo Yun secretly stuffed it), weapons and ammunition, enough for dozens of big battles, or the kind that is open to fight, medicine, if the medical officer is enough, we can configure it into a medical group"
"It's a pain to not be rich"
"Haha, I hope the more pain of this kind, the better," Zhang Promise also said with a smile.
"If you can't beat it, you can't beat it, I can't hide, I don't believe that devils can still rush into the mountains" Clearing his throat, Grand Master Zhang took out a cigarette again and lit it, and then continued.
"That's right, there is no road within a radius of 20 kilometers from Niuya Valley, and the movements of mules and horses are very difficult, and the devil's army can't be launched at all, unless the devil is determined to spend a lot of time to open the road, otherwise the troops can only deliver food when they come in" Zhang Promise was very satisfied with the new station he chose.
Cow Cliff Valley is a combination of concealment and danger, which is an excellent place for troops to be stationed, and it is also suitable for storing large quantities of supplies.
Moreover, there is no road within a radius of dozens of miles around Niuya Valley, and it is not suitable for open and spacious roads, if the devils force an attack, then the devils who lack heavy weapons will not be able to break through the defensive positions of Niuya Valley at all. Moreover, dozens of kilometers of mountain roads are in danger of being cut off from logistics.
"I estimate that it will be a long time before the devils do anything to us, and now the devils are still searching everywhere for the mysterious friendly army that annihilated the devil's brigade overnight, and they don't have time to care about us."
Zhang Datuan puffed up the smoke, and his thoughts became clearer and clearer.
"Now there are no materials stored here at the regiment headquarters, and the people are ready to transfer at any time, as soon as the devils leave the city, we can transfer them immediately, and there are 10,000 tons of grain in storage, and we are not afraid that the devils will burn the grain in the fields."
"However, we can't wait here for the devils to attack, we have to do something, the regiments next door are almost crazy since I gave them a little weapon to ambush, last time Peng Xuefeng also sent someone to bring me an adjutant knife, and it was a middle adjutant."
Sitting and waiting for the enemy to attack, this made Commander Zhang Da, who has always advocated attacking, very uncomfortable, although all the troops now need training, but it is still possible to fight and ambush, after all, now the weapons and ammunition are sufficient, and there is no need to understand the bayonet to see the red.
"Ambush devil convoys?"
"Let's not think about it, the other two key regiments are because the devils in their stations are weak and have poor defense."
"Let's here, there are a lot of transport teams, the rows of large convoys on the highway are much more lively than before, but the defense ability of the convoy is also strong, and there are two squadrons of guards devils, and the devils are now stationed in Wanping City, and they are equipped with cars, and they are extremely mobile, and now they are ambushing, I am afraid that they will be directly dumped by the devils."
Zhang Nuoyan persuaded his own head of the regiment.
He is responsible for collecting information on Wanping City, and he is very clear about the situation of the devils inside, and the devils do not hide their intentions at all, but generously show their troops in front of the county magistrates of various puppet army towns and towns in Wanping City, so Zhang Promise can make the numbers of the various brigades of the devils clear.
"Hey, I'm a little unwilling, now I have guns, artillery and soldiers, although I am inexperienced, but as long as I fight a few ambushes, the combat effectiveness of the troops can come up, it's a pity, it's a pity."
Smoking a cigarette, Zhang Datuan sighed.
Is there a quick way to recruit troops? Of course, there is a real knife and a real gun, a hundred training is not as good as a real actual combat, training is not dead, only after seeing the fear of death on the real battlefield, recruits can take the initiative to think about how to save themselves while killing, so that they can grow rapidly.
However, when you take new recruits to fight, you must choose the enemy well.
The enemy can't be too strong, after all, it is a matter of not being able to beat the enemy, it is a big deal to retreat, the battle in the mountains, the infantry chasing the infantry, it is very simple to run, but the recruits who lack the ability to survive on the battlefield are easy to become targets, once the enemy is too strong, the recruits are really gone after a combat training.
Of course, it's not okay to be too weak, it's too weak to rush up and wipe out the enemy, and then the recruits don't see the cruelty of the battlefield but start to swell first, that's harmful.
Now the strength of an independent regiment, sending two battalions at will, in fact, can completely compete with the two squadrons of the devil, and it is not the slightest kind, if the recruits grow a little more and have a little more combat experience, then the two battalions can play to shake the devil a brigade.
It's just that any ambush battle has to be fought for at least three or five hours, but the devil reinforcements in Wanping City will definitely be able to arrive in more than a time, and this ambush battle can't be fought at all.
