Since it can't be used as main battle equipment, it can always be used for training, right? For example, in the historical North African battlefield, the German armored forces commanded by Rommel relied on superb maintenance technology and powerful logistics support, and dealt with the British army with inferior troops, so that the British army often complained that the German tanks killed by themselves could always be resurrected in time!

Zhang Xuewu was also forced to be helpless, who made his country's overall industrial level lag behind? The idea of buying weapons on a large scale has been ingrained in Zhang Xuewu's mind, but how to buy them? Where does the money come from? How to guarantee Zhang Xuewu is still at a loss, in the face of the army gathered in Jinzhou, Zhang Xuewu has realized that there is not much time left for himself, the first battle of Rehe is related to the overall anti-Japanese war situation in the future of the country, it can be said that Qianyi launched the whole body, and Zhang Xuewu can't help but be cautious.

As soon as the convoy entered the camp, Zhang Xuewu couldn't wait to open the box, because at this time the classic 98K in the Mauser rifle had not yet been equipped with the German army, and the batch of rifles issued by the Ministry of Military Affairs was most likely to be the standard rifle purchased through River in the 19th year of the Republic of China.

After opening the case sealed by the lead bar, Zhang Xuewu ignored the yellow glycerin in the box, and directly picked up a gun that opened the safety and opened the chamber with a bang, and sure enough, it was a new Mauser standard rifle, Zhang Xuewu remembered that at the end of 1924, the Mauser company launched a standard Mauser rifle, hoping to replace the Type 98 rifle issued by the German army, which was an improved version of the Type 98 rifle. On the basis of the GEW98 rifle, the barrel was shortened to 600 mm to about 23.6 inches, the overall length of the gun was shortened from 1.25 meters to 1.11 meters of the GEW98, and a new sight was adopted, and the name of the standard model was because the barrel length was 60 cm, which was common to infantry and cavalry. In fact, the standard model did not receive much attention from the German side, almost little known in Germany, and by chance sought to buy arms in China, the largest user of the standard rifle, and then the Mauser brothers machinery company also sold the entire set of drawings to China, and the official rifle or commonly known as the 79 rifle during the Anti-Japanese War was the standard rifle of the localization!

In addition to the antiaircraft artillery battalion and mechanized regiment, the three infantry regiments and artillery regiments under the division all possessed a certain degree of combat effectiveness.

Although October in Beiping City was high and crisp in autumn, it was also full of warmth, and the first comprehensive drill of the first division of the new army of the National Revolutionary Army after the reorganization also kicked off, and the evil neighbors were finally gone, and the squadron of the Yue Army stationed in Jinghai was also really relieved, because the earth-shattering shouts and explosions in the middle of the night next door made them creepy.

It is also the first time that the commander of the army, Shotaro Kobayashi, has seen that there are troops in the world who conduct on-the-spot blasting training on their own battlefields? And often fire live mortar shells from the west to the east of the field? Training soldiers tactics also with live ammunition? The garrison of the Chinese [***] is higher than that of the army, so the army can always enjoy the thrill of the stray warhead of the Maxine heavy machine gun swishing and swiezing through the air.

At first, Kobayashi Shotaro often protested to the consulate, but almost every time he protested, the camp was always shelled inexplicably, and the warheads that fell into the camp were still Empire-produced training bombs and smoke bombs, and repeated investigations were fruitless.

In the end, even Counselor Yamamoto of the consulate was impatient and angry, because that Zhang Xuewu was not afraid of any protest at all, he was a guy who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, and even privately refused to have an armed conflict with the garrison squadron, Counselor Yamamoto asked Kobayashi Shotaro to report directly to the military department, or go to the despicable Chinese to duel!

Obviously, these two are not Kobayashi Shotaro's choice, he is going to retire in a few months, take the retirement subsidy back to Hokkaido to buy a fishing boat, live a stable and happy life, looking at the empty camp of the new first division, Kobayashi Shotaro Shaozo is almost with tears in his eyes, he is not a gate lord samurai, nor is he a young man in the Kwantung Army who was burned out of his head by fanaticism, Kobayashi Shotaro is an ordinary person, he is the eldest son in the family, and the purpose of enlisting in the army was to eat with one less mouth in the family, As for allegiance to the emperor? In Kobayashi's view, it was a matter for those who had received the emperor's favor.

In his previous life, he had repeatedly gone to the exercise ground in Aohan Aobao to participate in the actual confrontation, even if it was snowing during the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was not uncommon for him to be prepared, and all the troops carried plenty of cotton tents and cotton clothes.

Dressed in a light green cotton coat of the Central Army, but wearing a suede hat characteristic of the Northeast Army? The troops of the newly formed First Division, wearing thick gloves and earthy yellow sheets, rolled forward, and the cavalry battalion directly under the division headquarters played the role of sending soldiers, and Hao Wenbin deeply admired Zhang Xuewu's ability to borrow things.

It can be said that in addition to weapons, almost all of the officers and men of the newly formed First Division are wearing IOUs from Zhang Xuewu's Beiping Army Branch, and their face is not small.

However, Zhang Xuewu's actions made Hao Wenbin slightly uncertain, cotton clothes, cotton shoes, cotton tents? Could it be that Zhang Xuewu really plans to spend the winter in this hot river where birds don't? In connection with Nanjing's recent abnormal moves, and even the weapons that were originally to be distributed in Nanchang have been distributed, which is likely to be related to several recent statements of the Yue Army, I am afraid that the entry of the new first division into Rehe is also the central government's determination to show Beiping to protect Rehe, right?

The 1st Infantry Regiment, the 2nd Regiment, the 3rd Regiment, the Artillery Regiment and the team directly under the division have arrived at Chengde Girls' Middle School, Zhang Xuewu frowned and looked at his watch and asked, "Where has the mechanized regiment that set off together gone now?" ”

Several staff officers on the side looked at each other silently, Zhang Xuewu looked back at the expressions of the staff officers, strode to the radio station that had just been set up, and said: "Send a telegram to the chief of staff immediately, once every five minutes!" ”

Li Wensheng, the deputy director of the secret telecommunications room in charge of the radio station, said with a bitter face: "Master, the director of the secret telecommunications room sent to us by Shangfeng has not yet arrived, and I don't have a code book at hand!" The Chief of Staff could only be contacted by plain code. ”

"Plain telegram?" Zhang Xuewu involuntarily touched the holster, which frightened Li Wensheng to take a step back, Zhang Xuewu snorted heavily: "Who is such a big pomp?" Lao Tzu has completed the reorganization of the troops, and a small secret telegraph director has not yet taken office? Send a telegram to the Ministry of Military Affairs immediately, and don't want such a secret telegraph director! ”

Hao Wenbin saw that Zhang Xuewu was really angry, so he persuaded: "Don't worry, you know that the mechanized regiment is your heart and soul, and with Chief of Staff Li in charge, it hurts your body, isn't it?" ”

Zhang Xuewu looked around and said: "This is a girls' middle school, the school has not been suspended, all the tents of our troops are extended to the wasteland Li by the west wall, the camp defense area is planned, the military police are sent to patrol before the materials are in place, each regiment digs field fortifications on the spot, sets up tents, and repeatedly states the issue of military discipline to each regiment. ”

After Zhang Xuewu left angrily, Hao Wenbin felt a chill in his back, and he thought in his heart that this was really a model of mercy and not being in charge of soldiers! is really decisive, and he will pay more attention in the future, and it is not a joke to collide with this person.

Tang Yulin looked at the back of Zhang Xuewu leaving, it was hard for him to imagine that midnight checkout, covering the quilts for the officers and soldiers, visiting the company camp to check the food, and even helping the soldiers write letters.
