Chapter 235: Airborne Forces
Thinking of this, Su Dao hurriedly found Wu Zhongguo who was reviewing the documents, the intelligence of the Ninety-ninth Army was under Wu Zhongguo's control, and many things were given to Wu Zhongguo by Su Daoqiang, even so, Su Dao still felt very tired, and he was busy every day from the moment he opened his eyes, either busy or busy, anyway, there was no idle time.
However, Su Dao also knew that his work was too easy compared to Wu Zhongguo, so that every time Su Dao went to Wu Zhongguo, as long as it was not an urgent matter, he would leave after speaking, and he would never stay in front of him for a second longer.
Although Su Dao also knows that this is very unauthentic, but there is no way, who makes Su Dao like to be a hands-off shopkeeper? There is something about the battle, Su Dao only gives a specific goal, how to fight the rest, and who to send to fight is Wu Zhongguo's business.
It is precisely because of this that Wu Zhongguo always has a resentful expression every time he sees Su Dao, as long as he has the opportunity, Wu Zhongguo will stuff some of the work in his hand to Su Dao, such a large workload, Wu Zhongguo even feels that his body is a little overdrawn.
"Throne? You're finally here, come on, come on, hurry up and help me review these documents, and I'll hurry up and write a letter to my family. After seeing Su Dao, Wu Zhongguo's face finally showed a smile and he stepped forward and said.
"I still have something to do, besides, I'm not idle every day, Lao Wu, let me tell you something, don't be surprised." Su Dao pretended to smile mysteriously, and didn't answer Wu Zhongguo's question......
"Huh? What's up? Wu Zhongguo's smiling face instantly turned into a cold bench, if he didn't fight, it would definitely be a good hand to let Wu Zhongguo play Sichuan's face-changing, but Wu Zhongguo also seemed to have faintly predicted something, anything that Su Dao was happy about was never a good thing, this was already a common thing, and Wu Zhongguo had long been surprised.
"Today we have delivered 170 warplanes to the Air Force, including 30 heavy transport planes, which can transport 130 soldiers at a time. And I've added some equipment to our infantry. Su Dao smiled and patted Wu Zhongguo's shoulder.
"What? What do you want a heavy transport plane for? Also, what equipment did you add to the infantry? Wu Zhongguo's old face darkened, and he asked rigorously.
"Hehe, it's nothing, after we have a heavy transport plane, if we are in short supply, can't we supply at any time, even if the troops are surrounded, we can still transport ammunition, food and medicine to the troops, and this thing can load airborne troops, this is more than one stone." Su Dao said proudly, but the focus of the whole paragraph was placed on the last sentence.
"......" Wu Zhongguo was speechless for a while, he had long known that Su Dao would never have any good ideas, and Wu Zhongguo also believed in the previous words that the transport plane could indeed quickly solve the problem of materials and ammunition for some troops, but when he heard Su Dao's later words, Wu Zhongguo reacted, and felt that Su Dao said so much just to prepare for the latter sentence.
He then continued: "What about the army? ”
"Two hundred Katyusha rocket launchers and three thousand Bazooka bazookas were given to the army." Su Dao whispered softly in Wu Zhongguo's ear.
"What's that?" Wu Zhongguo couldn't react for a while, and asked inexplicably, while continuing to speak: "Individual bazooka? Don't we have 60 mortars? It's all equipped to the platoon, why are you still doing this bazooka? ”
Su Dao also understands Wu Zhongguo's incomprehension, after all, he has not seen these things, and he himself does not have it, and it is normal not to know, he is not the same as Su Dao, from later generations, and the ability of people in this era to accept new things does not seem to be as good as he imagined.
"The Katyusha rocket launcher is the kind of artillery mounted on the truck, and it is multi-barreled, and it can shoot out more than a dozen rounds in an instant, although the accuracy is not as good as the artillery, but if it is targeted by this thing, a large area will become a no-man's land, and you can run after the fight, no one can find it, and the mobile surname can not be said." Su Daozi said with interest, in fact, he didn't intend to care about the accuracy of this thing at all, what he wanted was the coolness of the firepower.
Think about it, when the little devil attacked in a big way, more than a dozen shells on a car were shot out in an instant, and the little devil was not scared to death? And it can also greatly relieve the defensive and offensive pressure of the infantry, and it is definitely a good helper for fire suppression.
"As for this Bazooka, it's not easy to say, so I'll give you an example. It's like the two of us are in the suburbs, and we only have a bazooka bazooka and a few shells in our hands, and then we come across a little devil's tank, with which the two of us can kill the little devil's tank with one shot if we have good skills. Su Dao gave a simple example.
In fact, there are many uses for Bazooka, such as street fighting, with this thing, the progress and casualties will be much better than now, like those devils hiding behind cover, no one can accurately hit them except snipers, and once people retract their heads, even snipers can't do anything.
With this thing, you don't have to care so much, just shoot it over, and you can't withstand the bombardment of one cannon after another in a powerful bunker, even if it is a shock, it can shock the enemy behind you to death.
"Oh, according to what you say, these two pieces of equipment will indeed increase the combat effectiveness of our troops by a large margin, so that we can withdraw the armored troops of the southern front and put them on the northern front, and we don't have to worry about the little devils breaking through the position." Wu Zhongguo nodded and said meaningfully.
And if this is really done, the 99th Army will defeat the Kwantung Army is also inevitable, a armored division of 300 tanks, galloping in the position of the Kwantung Army, with the cover of the infantry, it is easy to kill the little devil without leaving a piece of armor, due to defensive pressure and other reasons, Wu Zhongguo had to dismantle the armored division and place two brigades in various defense areas on the southern and northern fronts, leaving only one brigade for maneuvering.
"This is still small, think about it, we are fighting the little devil, an infantry suddenly fell from the sky and ran directly to the little devil's position, what effect would it be?" Immediately after that, Su Dao's eyes lit up and said naturally.
Wu Zhongguo suddenly looked at Su Dao with wide eyes, he deliberately didn't mention the matter of the airborne troops just now, after all, it is very dangerous to let the transport plane land within the area of the army, and if you don't do it, it's all over. But now Su Dao actually said that he was going to fall from the sky? How to drop?
"Jump?"
"Well, Germany has had airborne troops for a long time, they are basically mature, and I also know some about the airborne forces, so I know their role." Su Dao nodded affirmatively.
"Well, you can decide for yourself, but it can't be too big." Wu Zhongguo nodded helplessly and agreed with Su Dao's idea.
After all, if it is really as Su Dao said, then the war in the future will be too much to fight, and if a unit suddenly falls from the sky, this will inevitably affect the combat troops in front of the enemy, so that the front-line troops will have a greater confidence in defeating the enemy.
It was precisely when I heard Su Dao say that Germany already had airborne troops and they were already mature, so Wu Zhongguo's opposition was not so strong.
So Su Dao happily discussed with Wu Zhongguo the establishment and number of airborne troops, etc., but on this issue Su Dao obviously had the upper hand, Wu Zhongguo did not object to Su Dao's opinion, and directly agreed to form an airborne division, but the number of this division cannot exceed 30,000 people, and it is not equipped with heavy firepower.
Regarding the heavy firepower, Su Dao didn't plan to equip it in the first place, who was stupid enough to parachute and jump with artillery? In the end, the airborne division was equipped with MP40 submachine guns for each of the squad leaders, while the rest of the soldiers were still equipped with Garand rifles and a sniper, and a fire squad with two MG34 machine guns, a 60mm mortar and a Bazooka rocket support group.
In this way, although the heavy firepower of the Airborne Forces has decreased, his firepower density has not decreased, and the two MP40 submachine guns per squad well cover up the shortcomings of insufficient firepower, and they are also easy to use, high accuracy, light weight and other characteristics. Although he has the disadvantages of small ammunition capacity and slow rate of fire, it does not matter, the Garand rifle and platoon fire squad will cover them, so in general, as long as they cooperate properly, one platoon of airborne troops is enough to destroy the same or twice as many troops.
After confirming these things, Su Daole hurriedly left the military department, and if he stayed any longer, it was estimated that he would be arrested by Lao Wu again, what he needed to do now was to quickly start forming an airborne force, and the soldiers could only draw a part from other troops first, and then recruit a part, or directly draw a part from the reserves.
Anyway, it's not a big problem, now Su Dao has people, as long as there is equipment and enough training time, this airborne unit can still be put into battle on the battlefield before the end of the war.
"Commander Su!" As soon as he walked out of the gate of the military headquarters, a middle-aged man dressed in ordinary people's clothes called out to Su Dao.
Su Dao turned his head to take a look, looked at it for a long time before he recognized it, and hurriedly said, "Isn't this Commander Yang?" ”
Listening to Su Dao's words, Yang Jingyu's head was suddenly so low that he could almost get into his clothes, and both of them had a commander behind their names, but the strength of this subordinate was 108,000 miles behind, and the two armies on his side combined were only a thousand people, and there were hundreds of thousands of people on the other side.
And Su Dao's words Yang Jingyu also understood very thoroughly, to the effect that both of them are commanders and belong to the same level, I don't know if this is burying him or what? But thinking about the purpose of his trip, Yang Jingyu could only bite the bullet.
"Commander Su, don't make fun of me, I don't know if you're free, I want to tell you something." Yang Jingyu looked at Su Dao with some apprehension, for fear that Su Dao would not give him this opportunity.
"Come in and talk about it." Su Dao pointed to the military headquarters, then turned his head and walked in.
Although he didn't know what Yang Jingyu was looking for him to do at this time, Su Dao still didn't refuse his request, but in his heart Su Dao still secretly guessed Yang Jingyu's thoughts, did he want to let himself support him? Or give him a conscription channel so that he can develop his power?
But it's unlikely to think about it, the two sides have always been at odds, although Su Dao is not interested in Chairman Jiang, but this does not mean that Su Dao can stand on their side, he can't care about conscription Su Dao, just come secretly, anyway, they haven't done it, so why come to find yourself? Want some gear?
Thinking of this, Su Dao nodded secretly, apart from this reason, he really couldn't think of anything about Yang Jingyu coming to him? Was he so sure he would agree to equip him? Did you settle yourself or what? Do you really think of yourself as a local tyrant?
Su Dao also secretly admired his ability, but now what Su Dao has to think about is how to tell him later, if he really wants to equip it, then will he give it or not? (To be continued.) )
