After the reorganization of the troops, Han Yunhua basically did not need to worry about the training work of the regular brigade, except for the mechanized brigade and the artillery brigade, the soldiers of several other brigades had not seen Han Yunhua for a long time.

Han Yunhua knew that whether it was Yang Chengwu, Li Dayong, or Wang Jian, they were all experts in warfare, and they didn't need him to point fingers at all, and there was a special combat team over there to guide the training of the troops, so Han Yunhua was very relieved. The mechanized brigade and the artillery brigade are both highly technical arms, and the practical technology of the combat vehicles of the army is still very backward, so Han Yunhua often guides the training of the mechanized brigade, and he wants to train a torrent of steel like the armored army led by the German armored king De Gurian.

Han Yunhua knew that although the 9495-type armored vehicles produced in the country were really a bit backward, even in the Chinese battlefield with extremely backward weapons and equipment, these combat vehicles of the Yue army were often threatened by the [***] team that did not have anti-tank equipment, and were vividly called "Wang Ba Box" or "Iron King Ba". The tanks produced by the European countries at the time of the contract were not a heavyweight opponent, and it is no exaggeration to say that a German panzer division was much more powerful than an armored division.

At present, most of the armor forces in this book are extremely poor in terms of armor thickness, defense and artillery configuration. Let's take the two kinds of chariots that Han Yunhua captured the most this time, 9495: the 94 chariot is also known as the "bean" chariot, this kind of chariot is a cavalry chariot equipped with cavalry brigades and cavalry divisions, search wings, used to guide infantry impact, rapid raid and pursuit of the enemy, 94 type cavalry armored vehicles do not have the strong firepower of 92 type cavalry chariots, but the protection capacity is higher, this type of cavalry chariot has a large number, causing huge casualties on the Chinese battlefield.

However, the weight of the Type 94 armored suit is only a pitiful 3.2t, and the thickness of the armor is only 12mm, and the armor is welded. The speed of the Type 94 armored car is 40km / h, and the dynamic engine is 35 horsepower gasoline engine armament. What Han Yunhua didn't like the most was the weapon system of the 94 armored car, which had no artillery, only a 7.7mm or 6.5mm heavy machine gun, and only 2 crew members. It can be said that the surname of the Type 94 cavalry armored vehicle is extremely bad, almost a mobile heavy machine gun.

The most satisfying of the chariots captured in this war is the Type 95 chariot, although this kind of chariot is also very rubbish, but the surname of the Type 95 chariot is much stronger than the Type 94 chariot in all aspects, and the number of captured vehicles is still considerable, so Han Yunhua is full of expectations for the Type 95 chariot regiment. In 1932, the Type 92 heavy armored vehicle was successfully developed, which was used to equip the "cavalry combat convoy" of the company and carry out reconnaissance combat missions. However, the main armament of this armored vehicle is two 6.5mm Type 91 machine guns, which have weak firepower, and the Type 89 medium tank developed in 1929 is less mobile, so the military decided to develop a light tank with both the mobile surname of the Type 92 armored vehicle and the firepower of the Type 89 medium tank.

In July 1933, the Army Technical Headquarters began design work, and Mitsubishi Manufacturing Co., Ltd. conducted trial production. Mitsubishi Corporation made two prototypes in advance, A and B. Subsequently, they combined their advantages to make a full-fledged prototype. Beginning in July 1934, relying on the cavalry school and the infantry school, shooting tests and 700-kilometer driving tests were carried out, which proved that his surname was good. But the total combat weight exceeded the scheduled 6.5 tons, reaching 7.5 tons, and the maximum speed did not reach the target. After a modified design to reduce weight, a second prototype was built in September 1934, and during the test, the maximum speed reached a high speed of 46 km/h, which met the requirements of the military. After some modifications, it was officially finalized in 1935, and since this year was the year of Emperor Jimoto (Emperor Jimmu) 2595, it was named Type 95 Light Tank (Light Tank). Among them, there is a model produced in small quantities (I call it the "North Manchurian type") and is only used to equip the tank units of the Kwantung Army that invaded the northern part of the northeastern region of our country.

The Type 95 light tank has a dead weight of 6.7 tons, a total combat weight of 7.4 tons, a crew of 3 people (commander, driver, machine gunner), a length of 4.3 meters, a width of 2.07 meters, and a height of 2.28 meters. The main armament on the Type 95 light tank was a Type 94 37mm tank gun, which was trial-produced in 1933. This 37 mm gun has a relatively long barrel, the whole gun is 1.36 meters long, weighs only 64 kilograms, has a certain armor-piercing power, and can penetrate 45 mm thick steel armor at a firing distance of 300 meters. The ammunition base is 120 rounds. The types of shells fired are armor-piercing and grenades. The high and low firing boundaries of the artillery are -10 degrees ~ +24 degrees, and the directional firing boundaries are 10 degrees to the left and right. That is, even if the turret does not rotate, the gun can turn 10 degrees from side to side. The auxiliary armament is 2 Czech-made Type 97 7.7 mm heavy machine guns, which can fire automatically in bursts, the crew needs to shoot against the shoulder, and there are 20 machine gun rounds in the magazine (changed to chain feed in the late World War II) with 1.5 times the scope, one of which is a front machine gun and the other is a machine gun behind the turret, carrying a total of 3,000 rounds. The front machine gun is operated by the machine gunner, and the machine gun behind the turret is operated by the commander. The firing range of the front machine gun is: high and low -10 degrees ~ +35 degrees, and the directional firing range is 25 degrees on the left and right; Machine gun behind the turret: high and low -10 degrees ~ +25 degrees, 25 degrees on the left and right sides of the directional firing range. It can also be seen from this that the commander of the Type 95 light tank is tired enough, one person has to command the whole vehicle to fight, and also has to shoot artillery, load shells and machine guns behind the turret, and one person does the work of three people. However, since the Type 95 light tank is positioned as "supporting infantry operations", machine gun fire occupies a very important position. This can also be seen in the arrangement of firepower and the division of labor among the crew.

A total of 1,250 Type 95 light tanks were produced, which were used to invade China and Southeast Asia, and remained in service until the end of World War II. In the 30s, the Type 95 light tank was an excellent light tank, but its Achilles' heel was poor protection and weak firepower, and it was heavily damaged by the Soviet T-26 tank in the battle of the Su-Halaha River. Later, in the war of aggression against China, the anti-tank guns of the [***] squadron could also easily penetrate its armor. In the Pacific War and the Soviet-Chinese War in the latter part of the war, they suffered even more defeats. But at least at this juncture, these three tank regiments can play a greater role than any Chinese army group for China, which has almost no armored strength.

Moreover, the army's armored strength is also very small, and only those few truly elite field divisions and regiments on the Chinese battlefield will be equipped with one or two tank brigades. Other divisions and regiments of the Yue Army do not have this treatment, but it is conceivable that armored forces are also uncommon in the Yue Army, and it is still rare for a large-scale group like Han Yunhua to use chariots on the Chinese battlefield.

The mechanized brigade has been formed, and the training situation is also good, much stronger than Han Yunhua himself expected, after all, the soldiers of the mechanized brigade are all educated student soldiers, and their acceptance ability is still very strong. In addition to the personal teaching and supervision of Han Yunhua, the commander of the military region, who dares not to study without heart.

Therefore, although the mechanized brigade has not yet formed combat effectiveness, it is still no problem to carry out fire support and battlefield assault missions. But what worries Han Yunhua the most is the logistical support of the mechanized brigade, and the weapons and equipment required by the mechanized brigade are all automatic weapons, including self-defense pistols. It's okay to say about weapons and equipment, after all, Han Yunhua has captured a lot of weapons and ammunition this time, and there is really no shortage of these things. But the ammunition required for these weapons is a big problem, and the guns and heavy machine guns equipped on the combat vehicles are also a gold eater. In particular, China is not able to produce the shells of the 37mm artillery used in the combat vehicle itself, although the Mongolian Corps has built a factory in Baotou dedicated to the production of this type of artillery shells, but unfortunately it fell into the hands of Han Yunhua before it was produced. But Han Yunhua didn't know anything about weapon production, and seeing those temporary new machines and equipment quietly rusting in the warehouse and not being able to use them, Han Yunhua really didn't feel good in his heart.

Although the Inner Mongolia Military Region also has its own arsenal, it can only produce some grenades, bullet reloading, etc., and really does not have the ability to produce artillery shells for use in combat vehicles. This also means that the ability of the mechanized brigade of the Inner Mongolia Military Region to continue fighting has been weakened to a minimum, although the army has stored a large number of weapons and ammunition in the warehouse, but it will be empty one day.

Moreover, the gasoline used in the chariots was even more scarce, and in the eyes of many people at that time, China was an oil-poor country, and there was not a single oil field or drilling well in China. All the vehicle oil used in the Chinese battlefield was imported from abroad, including Chiang Kai-shek's Nationalist axe.

However, there are no such conditions in the territory of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, and after the gasoline left by the army in the oil depot is used up, all the mechanized vehicles of the Inner Mongolia Military Region will stop firing, and this problem must be resolved.

But this is a difficult problem, not only does he Han Yunhua not have this ability, even Chiang Kai-shek can't solve it, after the fall of China's coastal cities, the national political axe can still rush supplies from Vietnam's Haiphong port to return to China, but since the army occupied Guangdong, the straight-line distance from Vietnam's Haiphong port has become very limited, and the bombers of the Yue army hovered over the Yunnan-Vietnam railway line every day. The Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, on the other hand, runs all the way through the mountains and valleys, and once it is bombed by planes, it will be paralyzed on the entire line, and it will not be able to count on it for a short time.

In view of this situation, the National Political Axe accepted the suggestion of Yunnan Provincial Chairman Long Yun, and Yunnan Province funded and contributed the efforts, and the National Political Axe Central Committee assisted in the construction of the Yunnan-Burma Highway. However, the Yunnan-Burma Highway cannot be built in a day or two, and the amount of construction of the Yunnan-Burma Highway is huge, and the difficulty of construction is far beyond the expectations of the national government. Under the technical conditions at that time, the construction of the Yunnan-Burma Highway was no less difficult than the construction of the Qinghai-Tibet Railway now.

It can be said that China is now strategically surrounded by the Chinese army, and all the passages to foreign countries have been cut off. Foreign aid and imported materials cannot come in, and some strategic materials cannot be produced domestically, but this is really a sharp sword hanging over the heads of the national political axe and the Chinese people, and has seriously hindered the Chinese nation's struggle against Japan.

As a later generation, Han Yunhua knew that China was not without oil, although at that time, all countries, including the United Kingdom, and the United States, believed that China was a country without crude oil mines, and there was no black gold under China's vast land. But Han Yunhua knew that there were oil fields in China's northwest and northeast, as well as in east and north China, and that the Shaanxi-Gansu-Ningbo border area controlled by [***] could also extract oil. However, Han Yunhua did not dare to exploit oil on Chinese soil, for the simple reason that if the devils attacked Shanxi and Shaanxi because of crude oil exploitation, and then changed their strategic goal of going south to Southeast Asia, then Han Yunhua would really become a national sinner.

A large part of the reason why the army moved south to invade Southeast Asia was for war resources, especially rubber and oil. If China had substituted resources, it would not have provoked the United States, Britain, and other countries that were much more powerful than it, and at least would not have the idea of attacking Southeast Asia before China completely surrendered.

Han Yunhua didn't want to change history because of one of his inadvertent actions, after nearly a year of fighting. Han Yunhua knows that it is not easy to change history, and often a small change will trigger a chain reaction. It is as if he could not change the tragedy of the almost total annihilation of the uprising troops in eastern Hebei, but then led the Kwantung Army to enter the customs in a big way, although now all the rebel troops in eastern Hebei have withdrawn to the territory of the Inner Mongolia Military Region, but the vast territory of eastern Hebei is still in the hands of the puppet army as in history. These can't be changed no matter what, Han Yunhua knows that changing history can only try to change the branches and leaves of history, and trying to touch those things that are a foregone conclusion when the strength has not yet reached that kind of appalling will only make things worse.

Han Yunhua knew that only the army and the national political axe could get oil now, and the army was okay to say, just grab it, but there was some trouble on the side of the national political axe. However, we have not yet reached a certain point, and the oil in the oil depot left behind by the army can be used for at least half a year, and as long as the oil is obtained within these six months, it will not affect the combat effectiveness of the troops.

There has been no news from Qian Zhuangfei, and Han Yunhua has also sent a telegram to ask, and the comrades in the intelligence department said that Qian Zhuangfei personally went to the yellow flag, and Qian Zhuangfei went with a squadron of special combat members and a company of elite intelligence departments.

Han Yunhua's worry about Li Yuhan in his heart has been shown on his face, as the commander of a military region, Han Yunhua has always been happy and angry, in the eyes of the soldiers, Han Yunhua is a calm and extremely courageous person, whether it is the army pressing the border or hundreds of thousands of disaster victims pouring into the base area like locusts, Han Yunhua has never changed his face.

The soldiers almost hallucinated that there seemed to be nothing in the world that the commander could not do. No matter how serious the difficulties are in the commander, how many devils are in the eyes of the commander are all chickens and dogs. Although it is not vulnerable, it is still very vivid.

But since the commander came back from eastern Hebei, the soldiers found that the commander was very angry, and even more so when facing the devil captives, if it wasn't for Shen Yuquan's political commissar to stop them, the more than 1,000 devil captives were all pulled out by the commander to "burst".

On August 27, Qian Zhuangfei sent a telegram from the yellow flag saying that he had found the group of special combat teams that had pursued and killed Li Yuhan, but due to the lack of thorough preparation, they were still escaped by the devil special combat team after a fierce battle, and the number was about 30 people, and they were being pursued. But no trace of Li Yuhan was found, Qian Zhuangfei and others estimated that Li Yuhan and others should be in this area, and they were probably hiding in the pastoral area, hoping that Han Yunhua could send more people to help find them, after all, entering the pastoral area to find a person is undoubtedly looking for a needle in a haystack, and it is simply impossible to have fewer people. Moreover, there are still special combat teams of the Japanese army on the side, and the dispersion of forces is likely to be broken by each one.

It just so happened that there was nothing to do at the moment, the troops were resting and training, and there were really not many people who could use him, Han Yunhua and Shen Yuquan discussed it and decided to lead the troops north, on the one hand, to open up the jurisdiction in the north of the Inner Mongolia Military Region. On the other hand, it is to find Li Yuhan.

Shen Yuquan knew that Li Yuhan had an important surname for Han Yunhua, and when Li Yuhan arrived in the Inner Mongolia Military Region, Yan'an and the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army had sent him secret telegrams, ordering him to protect this little girl. The leaders were afraid that Han Yunhua's negligence would cause Li Yuhan to suffer, and at that time, not only Han Yunhua was likely to have some accidents, but even Li Yuhan's mother was not easy to explain.

So when Han Yunhua proposed to go north to find Li Yuhan, Shen Yuquan did not stop him, although it was really not his turn to be the commander to find a person, but Shen Yuquan knew who had the most right to speak in front of the special combat team, and it was undoubtedly Han Yunhua himself. It can be said that Han Yunhua is the founder of the special operations brigade of the Inner Mongolia Military Region and the teacher of all special combat members. In terms of attainments in special operations, there is only one expert in the Eighth Route Army, Han Yunhua.

After unanimous consultation and decision by Han Yunhua, Shen Yuquan and others, Han Yunhua will lead the 1st and 2nd regiments of the cavalry brigade and the fire support regiment to the north to inlay yellow flags. The 1st Assault Brigade moved the main force north to the front line of Kangbao, ready to support at any time.

In order to ensure the complete elimination of the special combat team of the Yue Army, Han Yunhua deliberately brought all the remaining 165 members of the Xiaofeng Special Operations Squadron, and at the same time, he also brought all the 876 special combat personnel who were selected last year who were still in training, so that these members could also see what a real special operation is.

After everything was ready, Han Yunhua set off from Baotou with his troops, took a train to Jining, and then rushed from Jining to the Yellow Flag. However, before this, Han Yunqian rushed to Jining one step ahead of Zhangbei, and she wanted to go north with Han Yunhua to find Li Yuhan. For Han Yunqian, Han Yunhua's brother has no way at all, although intellectually Yunqian is his subordinate, but emotionally speaking, Han Yunhua is not willing to scold this only relative at all.
