Sitting in the temporary headquarters of the New Fourth Army in Wuhu, Tie Xun not only had an incredible feeling, but also felt a little like a world away. Wuhu was captured with almost no losses, except for more than a hundred Japanese soldiers who were captured, most of the devils were annihilated, and even most of them could not find intact corpses.

After Tie Xun and other high-level officials of the New Fourth Army arrived in Wuhu, Qi Yuan let the Wheel King who was parked outside the city turn into a meteor and flew out of the atmosphere, and took this opportunity to really see what the steel giant that has been rumored to be like is like.

Not to mention the 40s of the 20th century, even in the 40s of the 21st century, Qi Yiming's mother plane, if people saw such a flying and terrifying combat mech, they would be unable to digest it for a while. When the New Fourth Army marched into the city, the steel giant guarding the gate of Wuhu like a door god was like an unshakable existence, making everyone awe and fearful at the same time.

Tie asked Liu Yuqing: "Does this magical thing have any names?" ”

Liu Yuqing replied: "Of course, it is called the Wheel King. ”

Tie Xun nodded and said, "The Wheel King, one of the Ten Hall Yamas, is in charge of judging how ghosts should go in the afterlife for good and evil in their previous lives. This Wheel King can also be regarded as the name of the occasion, and it can be regarded as the judgment of the life and death of the enemy on the battlefield. ”

After the Battle of Wuhu, although Tie Xun could not fully believe the 30,000 surrender troops brought by Liu Yuqing, he was also sure that he could command these soldiers who were not weak in combat effectiveness.

"This Wheel King, will he be able to listen to our army in the future?" Tie Xun asked Liu Yuqing with hope.

Liu Yuqing was accused by Qi Yuan, and basically became Qi Yuan's mouthpiece to the top of the New Fourth Army, and was also regarded as the principal by Tie Xun and others, he said: "Obviously, the Wheel King is not our level of strength, and it takes a lot of consumption to mobilize it once. It can't follow our army all the time, but it should have no problem attacking at a critical moment. "Translate this to mean that I can help you fight, but you have to make an appointment first.

Tie Xun nodded, if he said that there was no limit to a power master of the level of the Wheel King, then he would feel that it would not be credible. However, simply what was obtained by conquering Wuhu was already worthy of the ecstasy of the New Fourth Army.

Strategically, if the New Fourth Army still has to go north to join up with friendly troops, the road to cross the river after Wuhu is taken will be unimpeded. If you try to carry out more active operations on the surrounding areas, you can stretch from Wuhu along the Yangtze River to Jiangnan or Jingchu. The capture of Wuhu was also a great deterrent to the Japanese army and a great encouragement to the anti-Japanese form of the whole country. The many Japanese supplies obtained by the New Fourth Army after this battle and the trophies left in Wuhu were helpful to the strengthening and expansion of the ranks of the New Fourth Army.

Liu Yuqing said: "Regarding the seized weapons, I still have some things to mention to the commander. Although the weapons of the Japanese army are generally quite sophisticated, they are still a certain distance from the standard weapons newly equipped by our army, and the weapons logistics of the whole army are now facing a very difficult situation, and the weapons used by everyone are all kinds of weapons of various calibers, and this is quite a troublesome thing. I know that in the past, we had to do this as a last resort, and the New Fourth Army lacked weapons and ammunition, but now that we have the conditions, the Red Ghost hopes that the commander will take out the old weapons of the original New Fourth Army and the weapons collected by the Japanese army this time, including those collected in the future, and exchange them with better weapons of the New Fourth Army. ”

Tie Xun is a little confused about this mentions, if you want to help the equipment directly, why do you have to trade in the old for the new. It's just that he doesn't know that Qi Yuan needs to use the materials of the old weapon to remake the new weapon.

Among the new weapons obtained, Tie Xun felt that the M1903 had no obvious advantages over the formal or 38 big covers, the Chuntian rifle had better accuracy at long distances, and the 38 big covers had small muzzle fireworks and slightly better concealment. On the contrary, he is most optimistic about SKS and AK-47, which are slightly ahead of their time (in fact, both guns are of Chinese standard, but the names are five or six, so it is difficult to distinguish between them, so they are directly distinguished by SKS and AK).

Don't look at Tie Xun, who has always been known for fighting tough battles and hard battles, but Tie Xun believes that the times are changing, and the firepower on the battlefield is the main determining factor. In fact, the firepower of the Japanese is not very strong, but in the Chinese battlefield is facing the Chinese army, which has a particularly poor local military industrial capacity, and even many CPC troops are unable to get together guns and ammunition, so in this case, the Japanese army is amazing. It is easy to imagine that if the main battle weapons of the New Fourth Army are replaced with semi-automatic SKS, and a large number of fully automatic AKs are equipped, the Japanese army will inevitably face unprecedented challenges.

And another factor that Tie Xun doesn't want to say is that since it is from the red ghost to fight the autumn wind, then of course this autumn wind is better and better, and the higher the quality of the autumn wind hit, the better, and the things can be in their hands first, as for how to use it, that can be another matter. It is obviously more cost-effective to put on a bunch of obviously ordinary M1903 rifles than to get a batch of SKS and AK, and the bullets for the two rifles will also be quite large after distribution.

After Qi Yuan learned that Tie Xun wanted to equip the New Fourth Army SKS and AK, he did not delve into his intentions, since the "customer" had needs, he had to meet them. However, obviously, the old goods of the New Fourth Army and the weapons collected from the Japanese army in Wuhu were not enough to equip the existing New Fourth Army troops in large quantities, and it was obviously too slow to let the Wheel King mine resources.

That night, the different arsenals of the Japanese army, which spanned thousands of kilometers, were looted, and many Japanese soldiers did not notice anything unusual, and the entire arsenal was blown up into the sky. Of course, before the Wheel King blew up these arsenals, the guns, ammunition, and even some armored vehicles and tanks and other things in them had been recycled as scrap, and it took about a day for the Wheel King to reappear in Wuhu, bringing more weapons and equipment to the New Fourth Army.

This time, it is still dominated by light weapons, including 20,000 SKS semi-automatic rifles, 10,000 AKs, 3,000 to 67 general-purpose machine guns, and more than 500 artillery pieces of various types, covering mortars, howitzers, anti-aircraft guns and other categories. In terms of armored vehicles, the New Fourth Army has once again obtained more than 50 Type 59 tanks, and with the previous Type 59, the New Fourth Army has been able to form an armored regiment.
