Chapter 69: The Three Armies Attack
It is not an easy thing to send troops, and the eldest brother has to plan carefully to send troops to Li Guang. Su Qing's training has always been on Robinson Island, which is purely an island of poor mountains and bad waters, with many mountains and forests. Li Guang felt that it was more appropriate to line Su Qing to a similar terrain to fight.
It is best to have a coastal area of operations, and in the event of a crisis, although the Naval Resistance Force is weak, it is still not a big problem to respond on a small scale.
chose and chosen, and finally chose Su Qing's combat area on Hainan Island. It is said that the army and navy are strong, but no matter how powerful they are, they will not be able to look at Hainan Island a radius of several hundred kilometers in a strict manner.
Hainan Island is densely forested with mountains and forests, which is very suitable for Su Qing's small army to fight guerrillas. Moreover, if Su Qing can gain a firm foothold in Hainan, he will definitely be able to provide a lot of military intelligence for the Maritime Resistance Army, and the attack on the Pixiu will be more effective.
After setting the combat area, Li Guang did not dare to treat his uncle badly. According to the establishment of the army, one squadron and three squads, plus a firepower squad and a team site, totaled about 200 people.
It is impossible for the Naval Resistance Army to send so many people, but Li Guang still allocated four squads of troops to Su Qing. Whether it can be developed depends on Su Qing's ability.
The Hainan Guerrilla Brigade of the Maritime Resistance Army was established on 1 August with a total of 68 members.
Three infantry squads of fifteen people each. Among them, eight rifles, one light machine gun, and one 60 mortar.
A fire support squad of 15 people, two 80 mortars, three Makqin water-cooled heavy machine guns, and two German-made 75mm infantry guns.
There are four signal soldiers, a radio station, and three walkie-talkies. One military doctor, one nurse, and one clerk. One captain.
In addition, Li Guang specially reserved 100 M1 rifles and 10 light machine guns for this guerrilla. Not to mention spare weapons, in fact, the weapons normally configured by the guerrillas are not something that these 68 people can play with. At least thirty or forty people had to be replenished to transport mortars, infantry guns, heavy machine guns, and so on. And the supply of ammunition weighing several tons is not something that so dozens of people can transport.
On 8 August, the three armies of the Naval Resistance Army set out for the battle. This is the first time in the history of the Naval Resistance Army.
The Navy used the Pixiu No. 1 submarine -- Ren Tianyang to lead the team, the Baxia gunboat -- Zheng Xuechang to lead the team, the destroyer Pickup -- Huang Zhonghua to lead the team, and the supply ship PJP -- Lie Chong to lead the team. The commander-in-chief of the fleet is Zheng Xuechang.
The army dispatched a Hainan guerrilla unit, led by Su Qing.
The Air Force dispatched a reconnaissance plane with two pilots and one mechanic, led by pilot Liu Gensheng.
Don't look at the small scale, but the real three armies come out together. Before leaving for the campaign, Li Guang supplemented the guerrillas with six Mosingana sniper rifles and six anti-tank guns. This was bought by the Pickup after purchasing cannon steel from the Soviet Union and detouring to Ramo.
In April 39, Franco, the leader of the Spanish rebels, won a complete victory and became the ruler of Spain. Ramo, who was speculative, also rose at this time, and was promoted to make a fortune. Since the original Spanish political axe army was supported by the Soviet Union, many Soviet-made weapons were captured. Ramo still thought about Li Guang's little brother, and got Li Guang a batch of very good goods, including this famous sniper rifle in World War II.
It is clear from the weapons supplied by the Soviet Union to the Spanish political axe army that it was defeated by the rebels. In addition to a few advanced tanks provided by the Soviet Union, most of the artillery pieces were old goods pulled out of museums, such as the 122mm guns and 152mm cannons purchased by Li Guang were not provided to the Spanish political axe army at all. The weapons supplied by Germany and Italy to the Spanish rebels were much more advanced.
Therefore, Li Guang did not get any useful heavy weapons from Ramo, but he got more than 1,000 Mosingana rifles with and without scopes. And the anti-tank guns also got more than 300 of them. Another weapon was the Dzhegalev DP light machine gun, which (the predecessor of the Soviet turntable machine gun, often seen in movies) also had more than three hundred. The Dzhegarev light machine gun has a simple structure, the whole gun has only 65 parts, the manufacturing process requirements are not high, it is suitable for mass production, and the mechanism of the gun moves reliably, but the mass is too large. After the gun is fired continuously, the barrel heats up, causing the re-entry spring under the barrel to be heated and change the surname energy, affecting the normal operation of the weapon.
However, this light machine gun, Li Guang was not rationed to the guerrillas. One bullet is 7.62mm, which is not the same as the bullet of the Czech light machine gun and the Maxim heavy machine gun. The second is that the weight is a little larger, and the weight of the bullet plate reaches 13 kilograms, which is not very suitable for jungle combat.
According to Li Guang's plan, the main light weapons of the infantry should have been submachine guns, but now they cannot buy suitable ones. Germany did have good submachine guns, but in the long run, Li Guang still tried not to choose German light weapons, once World War II broke out, it would be difficult to replenish them, and Li Guang did not want his troops to have complicated weapons, which would make it difficult to supply ammunition. The American Thomson submachine gun is a good thing, but the price of more than two hundred dollars is too much. And the price of a light machine gun is not much different.
And the tattered Soviet-made machine gun that Li Guang got from Ramo was only seventy dollars each. A rifle costs fifteen dollars, and a bulky anti-tank gun costs only seventy dollars. The price of mortars is even cheaper, almost the same as the price of scrap metal.
Now there is no shortage of infantry weapons on the island of the statue, and it is more than enough to equip two or three thousand people. In fact, it was all thanks to Ramo, and Li Guang spent less than 200,000 US dollars in total.
Li Guang looked at the fleet in the distance, his heart was empty, he really wanted to command the battle. Fighting is really addictive, and after several battles, Li Guang actually fell in love with the thrill of walking on the edge of life and death.
Li Guang was in a hurry to time this expedition, because Laplace's guano trade had now begun to turn to the capital, and he had to strike at the merchant army he had built up immediately. However, it has nothing to do with Li Guang now, and it is not distressing to sink ten or eight ships. This is also an action that must be carried out immediately in order to cooperate with the plans of Yuan Ran and Rapangamariel.
Unconsciously, a custom has formed on the island that as long as the Maritime Resistance Army goes out, adults and children who have no jobs on the island will come to the dock to see them off.
This time, Su Zizi sang a song for all the soldiers who went out, and the song lingered in the hearts of the soldiers for a long time.
"Send my comrades,
Embarking on a journey,
Silent two tears,
The sound of the waves rings in my ears,
The road is long, foggy,
The revolutionary career broke up for a long time, and they were the same.
Comrades-in-arms, comrades-in-arms, dear brothers, I am worried about the cold wind in the north in the middle of the night, so take care of yourself all the way.
Send your comrades-in-arms and embark on a journey,
There is a long way to go, and there are many dangers and dangers, sprinkling the sound of waves all the way,
Mountains and mountains, water criss-crossed,
The ambition to defy the wind and water is there, and it lives up to the people's nurturing feelings.
Comrades-in-arms, dear brothers,
When the spring breeze spreads the good news, we will meet again. See you again.
Su Zizi has changed a lot, I don't know if it is the result of her powerful mother's teaching, Sister Su likes to be with Li Guang recently, Li Guang has taught Su Zizi several songs these days, of course, some small changes have been made in the middle. These are beautiful tunes and are very popular with fighters. Su Zizi began to set up a small performance team.
