Chapter 15: Give Again?
The purpose of the devil was very clear: the corvettes, light destroyers, and all kinds of small gunboats of the Third Fleet of the Navy, as long as they could sail into the Huangpu River, were all driven out by the army, and their fleets went upstream, bombing the residential areas where Shanghai was located, with the intention of causing panic among the people.
And this is precisely where the evil of the Yue army lies, bombarding civilian areas with naval artillery, forcing a large number of civilians to be forced to withdraw from Shanghai, although this is not good for Yue Ben in the long run, but it still has a relatively large effect in a short period of time. Once a large number of refugees are withdrawn, they will inevitably encounter the [***] troops who have come to Shanghai to increase their strength.
When the refugees meet [***], the army does not pray for anything else, but only hopes that those refugees can hold off the [***] troops, even if it is only for an hour, it is worth it.
At this moment, the troops of the Yue army have gradually begun to land, and if the Chinese army pounces on it at this time, it will inevitably cause unnecessary casualties to the army. Although the navy did not care about the casualties of the army at all, and it was not a matter of a day or two that the navy and land forces did not get along, this was an order from the base camp, and the Third Fleet had to cooperate with the landing of the army.
'Smack! ’
The battle didn't last long, and after a single gunshot, no more gunfire was heard in the streets, and the fighting was over. As Su Dao expected, the third battalion killed 13 soldiers without any casualties, and captured one Taisho 11 light machine gun, which is often called a crooked handle, with thousands of bullets, four Southern Type 14 pistols with hundreds of bullets, and eight 38 large covers with nearly 1,000 bullets. Of course, some of the grenades were also seized.
This is the first battle trophy of the three battalions, although Su Dao is a little disdainful of the equipment of the army, Rao is so, Su Dao also has to admit a fact, that is, Su Dao's three battalions are facing a crisis of serious shortage of equipment at this time. The eight rifles Su Daorang still held in his hands, or the soldiers who were made in Hanyang, and the guns were in poor condition, and the replaced rifles were not discarded at will.
Now Su Dao's strength has not yet been arrogant to the point of not being rare equipment, and in the next battle, Su Dao will face casualties, as well as the replenishment of new soldiers, if there is no weapon at that time, it will be very embarrassing.
As for the crooked machine gun of the army, this Su Dao really didn't like it, and he didn't let the troops directly equip it, but just carried it casually, and whoever wanted it at that time should sell his personal favor, and if no one wants it, there will be an emergency to temporarily save the fire.
However, Su Dao also understood a problem, it seems that this self-appointed official book is not recognized, otherwise now Su Dao has more than enough equipment in his hands, let alone one battalion. It seems that we have to find an opportunity to let Nanjing issue an official announcement, otherwise the authority to exchange equipment is always a company commander, how can this work? Su Dao didn't think that after the Battle of Songhu, there were still so many troops under his command.
There are no big things along the way, there are a lot of small things, but basically a squad of troops is chasing the refugees, Su Dao randomly ordered a platoon of troops to stay and clean them up, and the rest of the large troops continued to hurry, after all, it had been delayed for so long just now, if by the time they arrived at Luodian, the war had already begun, it would be too passive.
The firepower of the third battalion is indeed very strong, but the premise is that there needs to be a solid cover, otherwise there will be few people who can shoot after a round of artillery fire, and Su Dao doesn't want his soldiers to suffer that kind of pain. As for the exchange of artillery, Su Dao doesn't have that idea yet, mortars are easy to get, the question is, are there people who can play mortars? It is estimated that no one in the entire third battalion will play mortars except for Su Dao.
It's also a pile of scrap metal when it is exchanged, and it may even make others angry, so it's better to train the troops well when they have the opportunity in the future, and use it when they are done.
"Brother Su, I can be regarded as finding you, how is the situation?" After coming to Luodian non-stop, Su Dao found that the 163 regiment had indeed arrived here, and after inquiring about the location of the regiment headquarters, Su Dao ran directly to the regiment headquarters, but as soon as he entered the gate of the regiment headquarters, Song Renyi walked up.
"I encountered some trouble on the road, so it was a little late, and the equipment had already arrived, but the number was a little small, and the three battalions had not all been reloaded." Su Dao solemnly reported, and immediately nodded to the company commander Liu Sanpao behind him.
Liu Sanpao nodded knowingly, and immediately ran out of the regiment headquarters, and after a while, more than 40 soldiers of the third battalion carried more than 20 boxes into the regiment headquarters, and after putting down the boxes under Su Dao's instructions, the soldiers left the regiment headquarters.
Song Renyi saw that the soldiers of the third battalion had moved in so many boxes, and his heart was suddenly happy, it seems that Su Dao has not forgotten the agreement with himself, and when the third battalion has not finished changing its outfit, he sent these thirty machine guns over, and he kept his word, and Su Dao's image in Song Renyi's mind is getting better and better.
Song Renyi couldn't wait to open a box, and many staff officers in the regiment headquarters, as well as the battalion commander of the 124th Battalion, leaned forward one after another, wanting to see what Su Dao had brought.
'Shhh ’
As soon as Song Renyi opened the box, everyone gasped, only to see five MG34 machine guns lying quietly in the box, the muzzle of the black hole emitted a cold murderous aura, which seemed to be a machine gun with a simple structure, but it gave people a different feeling, this is the real big killer on the battlefield.
Song Renyi couldn't wait to pick up an MG34 general-purpose machine gun, and couldn't put it down to look left and right, the weight is a little heavier than the light machine gun, but it is very suitable for the current combat situation, using this machine gun only needs a soldier to indulge, although the speed will be slightly slower, but it doesn't matter. It's just that after fiddling with it for a while, Song Renyi didn't understand, but Su Dao just stood aside and watched silently.
"Brother Su, what kind of gun is this? Don't we think about it? Song Renyi was also embarrassed to ask Su Dao to tell him how to play this gun, but he had never seen this gun, and even said unceremoniously that before, there was no such machine gun in China.
"Hehe, this machine gun is called MG34 general-purpose machine gun, 7.92 mm caliber, developed and produced by the German Mauser company in recent years, and the entire German Army is currently only partially equipped, not all of it. This gun is a light and heavy gun, hence the name universal machine gun, and what you see now is a version of the light machine gun, which is a two-legged bracket in front. Immediately, Su Dao pointed to the pile of boxes behind him, and continued to speak:
"There are triangular mounts in these boxes, and after installing these triangular mounts, they can be used as heavy machine guns, with a rate of fire of 800-900 rounds per minute, and my crooked handle is simply a grandson in front of it. And the biggest highlight of this gun is that it is different from the ordinary machine gun's ammunition supply method, using a chain type of ammunition feeding, which is relatively economical in the war. Saying that, Su Dao quickly opened the magazine, and then Liu Sanpao handed over a string of bullet chains, Su Dao quickly fixed the bullet chains, and it took less than two seconds to complete.
The more everyone listened, the more excited they became, and they couldn't wait to take this machine gun and go to Xiao Yueben to try their power.
"However, this gun also has a very fatal weakness, although it has a high rate of fire, but in real combat, if you keep pulling the trigger and not loosening, it is still easy to malfunction. And it can easily lead to overheating of the barrel, which can lead to the inability to continue to use. So the best way to use it is to shoot it out of the spot, which is highly accurate and not prone to malfunction, and the barrel heats up a little slower. Su Dao patiently explained.
If the barrel is hot, the barrel will be replaced, and it will not take much time to change it anyway, even if half of the machine guns of the third battalion are changed at the same time, they will not be much weaker than the army in terms of firepower. But there is one thing that Su Dao did really unkindly, Su Dao Yingzuo only sent machine guns and ammunition to Song Tuanzuo, as well as a lot of useless triangular brackets, and deliberately detained the spare barrels of these thirty machine guns.
After all, there are too many machine guns in the third battalion, and it is also safe to leave a few more barrels, at least there is no need to worry about the lack of barrels at that time. The soldiers of the third battalion have long learned to change the barrel of their guns, and I have to say that it is indeed a very simple process.
"Well, shoot well, this will save some bullets. Ten of these thirty machine guns for each battalion, you boys will divide them among yourself. Song Renyi said happily, there is nothing more happy than getting thirty machine guns, besides, it is still this absolutely advanced machine gun, for a while, Song Renyi suddenly had a feeling that he was the head of the main regiment, what do you want, that feeling, it is really cool.
"Each machine gun has a standard 10,000 rounds of ammunition, don't take too much, otherwise other brother battalions will not be enough." After listening to Song Renyi's instructions, several battalion commanders even beckoned their soldiers to move the machine guns back, and Su Dao spoke at the right time.
The barrel Su Dao can still be detained for his own use, but this bullet will not be left for his own use, after all, everyone is Chinese, and the equipment of the other three battalions is better than the third battalion, at least the weapons are much more than the previous three battalions, as long as the gun is leisurely, don't strafe vigorously, according to the idea of fighting for a while and resting for a while, one barrel is enough for them to support until the bullets are used up, don't think that 10,000 rounds of ammunition is a lot, if it really starts, in fact, it is a matter of minutes.
"Brother Su, this, do you see if you can take out two more machine guns? You see, the guard force of our regimental headquarters is really too weak. Song Renyi suddenly looked at Su Dao with a slight smile, and Su Dao had goosebumps all over his body.
"No, nothing." Su Dao hurriedly refused, joking, he really thought he was a landlord and an old man, he had just produced thirty machine guns and 300,000 rounds of ammunition, and before his ass was next to the stool, he started Lao Tzu's idea again.
"Commander Song, I didn't expect your 163 regiment to be quite generous, compared to Lao Tzu's tax police corps." As he spoke, a middle-aged man wearing a brand-new German army combat uniform and carrying the rank of colonel on his shoulders entered the headquarters of the 163rd Regiment.
