Chapter 13** A new artillery division appears

At seven o'clock in the morning of the 18th, An Yi, who had held a combat meeting in the middle of the night and had only rested for three hours, accompanied by Shen Fengdao, played Tai Chi on the side of Yuanyang Lake, sweated profusely, and felt that the whole person was much better, and then returned to the war room of the Plum Blossom Hall.

At this time, Lin Yaodong had already brought the guards and brought steamed porridge and a few plates of Sichuan pickles, beckoning everyone to sit down at the table of the Eight Immortals and fill their stomachs first.

With yesterday morning, the food group of the Anjia Army Headquarters, which is known as the famous in the whole team, moved into Guyi Garden, and suddenly became a place where the generals and colonels of all armies and divisions in Nanxiang Town flocked to it.

If it weren't for the abundant material guarantee of Jiangnan Group, it is estimated that An Yi would have been in distress at this time.

Eating pickles and nibbling on buns, An Yi ate deliciously, Liu Qing walked in from outside the door, saw the buns on the table in a big basin, his eyes lit up, he stepped forward quickly, grabbed one and stuffed it into his mouth, devoured and chewed it, patted his stomach, smacked his lips very comfortably, and sighed:

"It's still the chef of our army's cooking class who has good skills, this bun is a gludon, the filling is authentic, just smelling it is more fragrant than the outside, and it is even more amazing to eat it in your mouth! It's comfortable! ”

"That's natural!"

Fang Zhanpeng said as a matter of course: "Our Huotou Army has received professional training from Sichuan cuisine masters, and it is much better than those who are assigned to the cooking class and are reluctant to figure out how to cook by themselves. Now the cooks of all units of our Anjia Army have been trained in rotation in restaurants, and the taste of the meals is naturally different. ”

An Yi had already finished eating at this time, put down his chopsticks, raised his head and asked, "Liu Qing, looking at your unhurried appearance, is there any good news?" ”

"Or the commander understands me!"

Liu Qing said with a smile: "Taicang military airport has been repaired overnight by the mechanized construction troops of the first engineer division, and now it can take off and land large transport aircraft, and at present, part of the runway has begun to be poured with water concrete, or in a few days, a high-standard airport can appear." The bazooka you requested at last night's meeting will be delivered by transport plane on these two days, and the professional bazooka riders who have been training for almost half a year will also be delivered at the same time.

"In addition, the 150mm heavy cannon produced by our Syrian arsenal enough to equip an artillery division has been loaded into Syria and is expected to arrive in Shanghai within ten days. When the exhibition is called, are we going to build a professional artillery unit under the group army? ”

"It's going to be built!"

An Yi nodded affirmatively: "This latest type of cannon, in fact, has been finalized and produced since the beginning of the year, but considering that the equipment of this kind of giant cannon, the requirements for logistics are too great, not to mention anything else, let's just talk about shells, one weighs fifty-one kilograms, the two-thousand-ton freighter that passes through the Sichuan River Basin, a ship can only carry more than 5,000 shells, if we fight in North China, just the long supply line is enough to drag us down, so we dare not deploy troops." At the same time, I was worried that it would arouse the covetousness of the chairman of the committee and the leading generals in the army, so the matter was put on hold.

"When I went to the battlefield yesterday to inspect the field, I found that the situation was far worse than I imagined, and the Japanese army had built the entire concession area into a strong fortress, and every street was fought for by the accumulation of fresh lives. If you cherish yourself at this time, it is too much to say. That's why I decided to create a professional artillery unit within the army group establishment. In order to distinguish it from the artillery of the group army and the divisional units, and for the sake of secrecy, this unit will be named the Second Artillery Corps, which will be newly organized into a division, which will be responsible for the defense of the Shanghai area, and will be temporarily used as a fortress artillery before the fortress artillery is in place. ”

"Second Artillery?" Chief of Staff Yang Fei was a little surprised: "Why did you choose this name?" Is there anything special about this 150mm heavy cannon? ”

Liu Qing pursed his mouth: "Lao Yang, you have been working in the fourth hall for so long, why don't you even know your own family background?" The heavy cannon we developed was named the Dongfeng I heavy cannon by the military experts of the Syrian Arsenal, and its actual caliber is 151mm, the ratio of length to diameter of the body barrel is 52, the maximum firing range is 27.5 kilometers, and the projectile weight is 51 kilograms. According to the proof of thousands of test firings by us and German experts, due to the use of the most advanced barrel casting technology in the United States and Germany, our strength is the strongest among the 6-inch caliber guns in the world today, and even the French 'Schneider' M1935 and the American M-59 'Long-legged Tom' two long-firing 155mm caliber cannons are not comparable, and the strength of the ***96 150mm heavy cannon is also slightly better.

"As early as the beginning of the project, because our 10,000-ton hydraulic press has not yet been successfully developed, the manufacture of large-caliber fortress guns has always been a thorny problem, weapons experts consider that this heavy cannon may temporarily act as a fortress gun, so they adopted a unique design method that combines field deployment and coastal deployment. The gun is equipped with a ring-firing chassis, after placing the Dongfeng I 150mm heavy cannon on it, it has the ability to fire 360 degrees, the total weight of the whole gun plus the ring-firing chassis is 25 tons, which is the heaviest in the 6-inch caliber ground gun, but considering the need to take into account the function of the coastal artillery and other factors, and the whole gun can be towed after removing the ring-firing chassis, it can be regarded as the most powerful weapon of our army so far.

"The key is that with this kind of huge artillery, the Japanese army in the Pudong area can be placed under the direct coverage of our cannons, and there is no need to worry about not having a trump card against the Japanese steel fortress!"

Yang Fei also frowned when he heard this: "Okay, I originally thought that this was another imitation of Germany, similar to the short-barreled 150mm howitzer produced last year, but I didn't look at it closely, it turned out to be so powerful, this little devil has a hard time!" ”

"It's not so mysterious, this thing *** people also have it, now the *** siege heavy artillery fifth brigade in Pudong is equipped with 150mm heavy cannons, in addition, the three divisions of the Japanese army, each division is equipped with a heavy artillery brigade, equipped with hundreds of 150mm howitzers, compared to our Central Army's three *** artillery brigades can be much more generous. Our first-class artillery brigade has three heavy artillery regiments, each regiment has 24 German 75mm mountain guns and field artillery, 6 150mm heavy howitzers, 9 anti-aircraft guns, 128 Zhongzheng 1 rifles, 24 submachine guns, and 64 pistols. The artillery brigade also has a heavy mortar regiment under its jurisdiction, which has 28 anti-aircraft guns, 10 120 mortars, 15 18 mortars, 20 60 mortars, 64 Zhongzheng 1 rifles, 12 Zhongzheng 3 semi-automatic rifles, 12 submachine guns, and 32 pistols. In addition, there is an anti-aircraft machine gun battalion with 30 anti-aircraft machine guns, 15 submachine guns, and 15 pistols. Coupled with the automobile regiment, reconnaissance battalion, brigade headquarters and other institutions, the number of the brigade is 4,100 people, which is much worse than the heavy artillery brigade of ***. ”

Speaking of this, An Yi stood up, wiped his mouth, and continued: "Being well-armed is only one aspect that determines the outcome of a war, and the person who is armed is the most important factor!" Just like the charging tanks I saw in the Japanese concession yesterday, the tanks were originally a good weapon to kill the enemy, and as long as they were properly protected, they would definitely play an unexpected role, but under the wrong command, they became a live target for the Japanese army. Therefore, our commanders must keep a cool head and listen to the opinions of professionals at all times, otherwise no matter how good things are, they will only become the trophies of the opponent! ”

In the war room, Fang Pengxiang, Xu Boqian, Li Yufu and other important members of the first cadre headquarters, as well as Shen Ziling, who was officially appointed as An Yi's confidential secretary, and Cheng Shiming, a confidential staff officer, all showed thoughtful expressions on their faces. Wei Changjie, An Yi's former confidential secretary, was transferred to the special service regiment of the Southern Yunnan Garrison Command as the squadron leader of the special operations brigade, and the previous secretary, Zhao Bohan, had rushed to Datong from Simao to serve as the colonel's chief of operations after the reorganization.

"Commander, Miss Ye was stopped by the guards at the entrance of the town, and she asked you to pick her up in person!" Li Tao, the head of the guard team on duty in the telecommunications room, hurriedly came to report.

"Sister Qing!? Is she getting better? ”

An Yi happened to come to the map, looked at the situation map of the Japanese concession in Shanghai, which had been remarked by the staff officers, turned his head in surprise, and asked loudly.

Li Tao hurriedly said: "It's not Miss Ye, she said her name is Ye Zixin, and there are other people around her......"

The smile on An Yi's face froze suddenly, but he quickly adjusted his emotions and ordered everyone to perform their duties and do the work at hand well, no matter when he, the chief of staff of the theater, began to perform his duties, but in response to the current war in Shanghai, a targeted plan must be taken out in advance.

When he was about to leave Guyi Garden, he happened to meet An Jin with someone to send a combat sand table to the headquarters, An Yi's heart moved, and he called An Jin: "Xiao Jin, accompany me to the entrance of the town." ”

"Okay!" An Jin happily responded, explained a few words to the soldiers around him, and hurriedly came to An Yi's side.

At this time, Liang Ziyan, chief of staff of the Special Operations Command, happened to walk into the courtyard gate, saw An Yi, and excitedly stepped forward to salute: "Commander, morning!" ”

Seeing Liang Ziyan, whose tanned muscles bulged and bloomed with infinite strength, remembering the days when they worked together before, An Yi said happily:

"Ziyan, I've been paying attention to your performance over the years, it's very good, it's worthy of being the person I brought out with my own hands, you didn't embarrass me, you can shine anywhere! Especially this battle plan that you and Xiao Jin came up with this time, which is both unexpected and reasonable, I think Xiao ***'s navy is hurting his muscles and bones this time. ”

Liang Ziyan's excitement was overflowing: "Commander, I remind myself at any time that I am the person next to you, and I must not lose your face......"

"Chief of Staff!?"

Several special forces who came in from behind greeted Liang Ziyan, he answered, turned his head and saw that the soldiers carrying the sand table all stopped and waited for him, the courtyard gate of Guyi Garden had been blocked tightly, shook his head, and said a little embarrassedly: "Commander, I'll go first, I'll go back, we'll talk slowly." ”

An Yi waved his hand: "Go, anyway, this time I have to stay in Shanghai for a long time, and I have time." ”

After Liang Ziyan took the people away, An Jin asked curiously, "Brother, is there anything going to the town?" ”

An Yi patted him on the head: "Can't we walk together if it's okay?" It's been a long time since we've been together to catch up on the old days, let's go, let's talk while walking! ”

Shen Fengdao and Lin Yaodong fell behind, looking at them with a smile, without disturbing the brothers' conversation.

Out of the Guyi Garden, there are *** officers and soldiers coming and going on both sides of the street, due to the implementation of military management, except for the aborigines in the town, the rest of the personnel strictly control the entry and exit, so it seems that the atmosphere of the battlefield is very strong.

Walking forward along the road leading to the entrance of the town, An Yi turned his head and asked, "Xiao Jin, ten years have passed in a blink of an eye, and you are almost twenty-seven years old now, do you have a favorite object?" ”

An Jin smiled shyly: "Brother, why are you asking about this?" ”

"Brother cares about you!"

An Yi put his hand on An Jin's shoulder: "Grandpa has passed away for almost three years, and now in this world, you only have one relative, I don't give you Zhang Luo, who will give you Zhang Luo?" I'm worried that you kid is bored, and you don't know how to take the initiative to pursue it when you have someone you like, and you won't regret it until you lose it! ”

An Jin's face turned a little pale, and he couldn't help lowering his head. An Yi saw a hint of clues: "What, you really have a favorite object?" ”

An Jin scratched his head, turned his head and saw An Yi's encouraging expression, and his heart suddenly opened: "Brother, I like a girl, but I don't know if she likes me or not, before coming to Shanghai, I was still thinking about how to confess to her......"

An Yile said happily: "Good boy, I finally got the hang of it, man, you should take the initiative and say, who is she?" Brother is in charge of you! ”

"She's from the Art Troupe!"

An Jin's face was as red as a dyed red cloth, and his face was full of shyness. If you let someone who knows An Jin's famous name see it at this moment, they will definitely be surprised, is this still the number one spear in the army that terrifies the enemy?

An Yi was slightly stunned, and said in his heart that the kid wouldn't like Han Yu, right? In that case, things are tricky. Fortunately, An Jin uncovered the mystery in time.

"Her name is Leng Yue, she is a dancer of the art troupe, during the Anti-Japanese War of the Great Wall in three or three years, she followed the troops to North China to give condolences to the performance, during which she also followed the doctors and nurses of the field hospital to the front line to carry the wounded. Later, the 24th Army withdrew, and the carriage of our special brigade was next to the art troupe, and we had more time to meet, and slowly I liked her. ”

"Cold Moon? Funny, she has the exact same name as my goddaughter! But Satsuki is only seventeen years old this year, so it's definitely not the same person......"

An Yi sighed slightly: "Does she have a partner?" ”

"Nope!"

An Jin shook his head, but then said with some eagerness: "I think she should know that I am interesting to her, and we haven't pierced that layer of window paper all these years." Our marriage law in southern Sichuan stipulates that a girl can get married at the age of eighteen, and she will turn twenty this year, and I am worried that her family will put pressure on her......"

An Yi was happy, and patted An Jin's shoulder vigorously: "Brother, this matter is up to you, I will let Uncle Dao go to the woman's house to propose marriage, if her parents are unwilling, Lao Tzu will personally take someone to rob it, even if it is pointed out by Qianfu, I am not afraid, who calls you my brother's dearest brother!" ”

An Jin's face was full of joy: "No, for us in southern Sichuan, brother, you are the Buddha of ten thousand families, what do you mean, who dares to be disobedient?" With your words, I ......"

An Yi interrupted him: "Xiao Jin, don't take such things to heart in the future, you have to say anything to my brother." You see, if I hadn't taken the initiative to ask this time, I would have delayed a good marriage! If you encounter anything in the future, you have to tell your brother as soon as possible, okay? ”

"Hmm!"

An Jin nodded, his head leaned on An Yi's shoulder, at this moment, he seemed to have changed back to the young little hunter he was at the beginning, and his heart was full of strong affection for An Yi.
