Chapter 687: Individual Bazooka
"Thank you, Director Zhang, let me think about it, this news is too sudden. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info"Sun Zhongren needs time to accept this appointment, and of course, he also needs to think calmly about what he should do next.
This is obviously a rare opportunity for him, a chance to re-enter the battlefield, and an opportunity to kill the enemy and serve the country.
This opportunity could not have come at a better time!
However, even if a lot of convenience is given to form a unit within three days, there are still many difficulties, and the combat units are better to say, the technical personnel of the brigade headquarters, staff officers, and so on.
Weapons and equipment are not difficult, the key is still people, and this talent is the most valuable.
Everyone is waiting, waiting for Sun Zhongren to think carefully before speaking, after all, this is a big event, more important than any major event in life.
Once the troops are drawn, then it will be too late to think of anything.
"I'm going to take a few people out of the officer cram school."
"Yes, the master has already called, as long as it is within his authority, he can give priority to Brother Sun's request." Ju Youlin agreed without the slightest hesitation.
"Thank you." Sun Zhongren is really grateful, and this trust is definitely very important.
"Also, can you give me a chief of staff?"
"Chief of staff, we can't find a suitable candidate for a while, but the deputy brigade commander can, if you don't say it, we will also match you with one, as for the candidate, do you have a suitable one?"
"This ......"
"Brother Zhongren doesn't have to have any worries, there is a suitable candidate, and it is better to say it directly than for us to be embarrassed here." Ju Youlin said.
"Feng Ying, it turned out to be the head of my regiment, and now, I'm idle at home, ......" Sun Zhongren had a wry smile at the corner of his mouth, and after sending it back to the battle, the tax police corps suffered heavy casualties and was divided into two, one part was pulled away by the head of the regiment Huang Jie, and was reorganized into the 40th Division of the Eighth Army, and the other part was the five thousand wounded soldiers in Wuhan, and now it was incorporated by the Honorary First Division.
Feng Ying was promoted to the commander of the second detachment, and served as the commander of the fourth regiment, and was his old subordinate, because he refused to go with Huang Jie, he was "idle" at home.
"Where's the man?"
"Not far, Xiangtan, Hunan."
"Send someone to pick it up immediately, it should be in time for three days." Ju Youlin said, "Regarding the candidates for the team, what other candidates does Brother Zhongren have, you can put them forward together, and we can do it in one step." ”
"Not yet."
"Okay, let me talk about the equipment, our honorary first division started by capturing it, that is to say, our equipment is mainly Japanese, including protective gear and equipment, this time we used the inventory to get together a brigade of equipment for Brigade Commander Sun, if we want to reorganize, it is estimated that our little family foundation will be about to be tossed." Zhang Fengxiang smiled and said, "Okay, let's get down to business, I'll read to Brigade Commander Sun what I prepared for your 36th Brigade." ”
"4,500 Type 38 rifles, half each of Mauser pistols and southern Japanese pistols, a total of 580 rifles, 200 flower machines, and 120 Taisho 11 light machine guns and Czech light machine guns......
"As for artillery, we don't have much inventory, but fortunately, we have brought back all the damaged ones, and the ordnance station has repaired some of them, about a dozen, and it is still possible to build a battalion for you."
Sun Zhongren nodded, although there is still a gap between it and the tax police corps in its heyday, but now, it is quite good to be able to do this.
This country has weak financial resources, and it can't buy weapons even if it has money.
"Brother Zhongren, we can't compare with Minister Song, who has deep pockets, so you elites who came from the United States have to follow the customs of the locals and learn to live a tight life."
"Master Ju rest assured, Zhongren understands this." Sun Zhongren nodded, many officers in the tax police corps have the experience of studying in the United States, they have received American-style military education, and their behavior and habits are deeply affected, and sometimes they inevitably command battles with an American-style way of thinking.
However, they have always been Chinese, and the things in their bones will not change, and after so long, they have long changed back, but some of them are not very suitable for dealing with people, especially their previous position is embarrassing.
Whether you can be accommodated into the big family of the first division of honor is about to come and see this battle.
"The appointment at the battalion and company level is up to you, and the division headquarters reports immediately, and the regimental level officers must in principle be approved by the division, but this time, the division has decided to hand over the power to you and not interfere."
"Thank you for your trust!"
"The task of the two of us is completed, and the next time is for Director Wu." Ju Youlin and Zhang Fengxiang stood up at the same time and said.
Sun Zhongren was a little stunned and a little confused, but he also stood up.
"Let's talk."
"Brigadier Sun, from now on, my conversation with you is top secret, please understand!" Wu Xiaoyun's pretty face was serious and serious.
"Director Wu, you say." Sun Zhongren was also a little nervous, although he belonged to the same army, he didn't have many opportunities to deal with Wu Xiaoyun, this young woman, who carried the rank of "colonel" on her shoulder, had a legendary experience, the legend said that she was a "dominatrix" who killed people without blinking, but he felt that she didn't look like the kind of cruel and murderous person except for being a little cold.
Of course, this woman is in charge of the intelligence agency of the Honorary First Division, although the scale is not as large as that of the military commander and the central commander, but it is definitely a quite elite team.
Because he was born in a military command, the honorary first division and the military commander have cooperated a lot in intelligence, although Sun Zhongren does not like the style of the military commander, and by the way, he also has a faint rejection of the intelligence agency led by Wu Xiaoyun.
Of course, he rejects this and says that he doesn't attach importance to intelligence work, but he doesn't like it very much.
"Director Zhou, please!"
"Yes!" Ding Mengyu, who was standing behind Wu Xiaoyun, said yes and ran out quickly.
After a while, a young and beautiful woman wearing the rank of lieutenant colonel walked in, looking a little more mature than Wu Xiaoyun, but her age would definitely not exceed thirty years old.
"Brigade Commander Sun, let me introduce, this is the director of the Division's Light Weapons Research Institute, Lieutenant Colonel Zhou Xue!"
"Hello Brigade Commander Sun, I've heard of your name for a long time." Zhou Xue smiled generously, saluted a military salute, and then stretched out her right hand to go over.
"Hello, Director Zhou." Sun Liren nodded, shook his hand gently, and then separated.
"Zhou Xue, Brigade Commander Sun, sit down and say!"
"Good!"
"Brigadier Sun, there is a document in front of you, you can read it first, but the content can only be remembered in your head." Wu Xiaoyun sat down and said.
Sun Zhongren sat down suspiciously, saw the folder in front of him, slowly opened it, a delicate composition, as if it was a weapon, but he didn't understand it for a while, and when he saw the hand of the text below, he was surprised.
"Brigadier Sun, this is the latest weapon developed by our Honor 1st Division, a man-portable bazooka, the design idea comes from the Song Dynasty's fire dragon out of the water, its main target is the enemy's tanks and pillboxes, and the effective range is ......between 150 meters and 200 meters," Zhou Xue said.
Compared with the written language, Zhou Xue's introduction is more intuitive and specific.
This is specially developed for the heavy mechanized equipment of the Japanese army, if the performance is really as stated in this manual, then the Japanese tank in front of him is like paper paste.
With such a sharp weapon in hand, why worry about the indestructibility of the Japanese army?
Sun Zhongren instantly became excited.
"Has this weapon been made?"
"Brigadier Sun, this is the purpose of my separate talk with you, the weapon, we have made it, but our process level is not enough, to put it simply, our materials do not meet the design requirements, and also, the sealing of our drug issuing device is not very good, and it is also subject to materials, now, we are importing materials from abroad through secret channels, and continue to study and improve the process, and there is also a recoil problem......
Wu Xiaoyun's explanation made Sun Zhongren silent, this weapon is good, but the problem is that now it has a lot of flaws, and it may not be able to be used if it is not good.
"When we were testing, there was a bore, and the soldiers who were testing were killed on the spot." Zhou Xue also said solemnly that this weapon is the first new individual weapon she participated in the development, which has cross-era significance, but after it is manufactured, there are many problems, and these need time to solve.
But they needed this weapon at this time, and they lacked time.
An unstable weapon, when it is brought to the battlefield, it is to fight for the lives of soldiers.
"What caused the explosion?" Sun Zhongren asked.
"We tested the limits of its use, and that's when the bore accident happened." This does not need to be concealed, and it is not external, Zhou Xue said naturally, "The preliminary judgment is that it is still a material problem, and the strength is not enough." ”
"How effective was the damage from the test?"
"Within 50 meters, 70 mm of steel plate can be penetrated, and if it is 100 meters, it can be reduced to 40 mm, and the longer the range, the smaller the penetration force." Zhou Xue explained.
"This is already remarkable, the armor of the Japanese tanks is not thick in the first place, and if this bomb goes down, a tank will be finished." Sun Zhongren was surprised.
"We are currently using black powder, if we use smokeless gunpowder or more violent gunpowder, it can not only increase the range, but the power will also increase exponentially, but due to the material, we dare not test, if something happens, it is a matter of human life." Zhou Xue was obviously very saddened by the accident that occurred in the test.
Sun Zhongren nodded, he could understand Zhou Xue's worries, even if a new weapon was developed, it could not be at the expense of human life.
"How much did you make of this thing?"
"We made six before and after, and in addition to the one that was blown up, there are five left!"
"What about this rocket?"
"We made a batch, the specifications and parameters are different, mainly for testing, but also to find the most suitable gunpowder ratio and the best damage effect, all the test shells add up to less than 30."
"Thirty, a little less, if only there were more." Sun Zhongren stared at the picture in his hand with burning eyes, and couldn't put it down and muttered to himself.
"Brigade Commander Sun, what did you say?"
"I mean, Director Wu, you and Director Zhou asked me to see this, it can't be for no purpose, right?" Sun Zhongren asked rhetorically.
"Brigade Commander Sun is right, show you this, we have a purpose." Director Wu said, "Any kind of weapon, in the end, must be tested by actual combat, and now the battle situation is tense, we are at a disadvantage, so, some processes, we can only temporarily ignore it, the battlefield is dying every day, you have participated in the Battle of Songhu, when you know how much it costs GJ to blow up a Japanese tank?" ”
"If you sacrifice one person in exchange for a tank for the Japanese army, would you be willing?"
"Director Wu, if you stand in my point of view, I am not willing to sacrifice any of my subordinates, but what you said is an objective fact, and I can't deny it."
"According to the experience we have figured out, this bazooka will be launched three times, cooled down for half an hour, and then launched again, the probability of exploding the bore will be very small. Zhou Xue explained.
"Oh, that's right." Sun Zhongren nodded, in this way, although it cannot be launched continuously, the safety of the soldiers will be greatly guaranteed.
Although this is a big shortcoming, the number of tanks of the Japanese army is not very large, and it is amazing to send ten or twenty tanks at a time.
People can't waste food because of choking, what's more, in this case, you can still solve the problem step by step, and when you solve the problem, the battle is over.
"You want my troops to use it on the battlefield and test its actual combat effectiveness?"
"Yes, that's what we mean, and it can also help Brigadier Sun reduce casualties, as well as serve as a secret weapon against Japanese tanks."
"Do you know about this individual bazooka?"
"Of course, this is top secret, and if you know it, the Japanese may know about it, and we don't want to take such a big risk." Wu Xiaoyun said.
Sun Zhongren smiled bitterly, it is obvious that the first division of honor has a serious distrust of the secrecy work of the intelligence department of the national government, and this can't be blamed.
Not to mention ordinary petty bureaucrats, even some important real power figures in the national government, aren't they also pulled into the water by the Japanese, money, beauty, how many people can resist such temptations. Confuse?
Yes, anyway, I don't get treated, those in the Huangpu department don't look down on him, and he doesn't look down on the local department, but this honorary first division is a little interesting, whether it is Huangpu or a local background, as long as you have talent, you can be reused, and only talent is lifted.
"For such a big matter, you don't ask the master to make your own decisions, I'm afraid it won't work, right?" Sun Zhongren said that he had heard a little about the relationship between Wu Xiaoyun and Leng Feng.
But even if you are a couple, husband and wife, the rules in this army cannot be forgotten, and it is not the turn of a woman to be the master of the house in the first division of honor.
"Naturally, if we hadn't asked for the master's seat, how dare we tell you this here." Wu Xiaoyun smiled slightly and handed over a piece of paper, "This is the secret message of the division, Brigade Commander Sun can take a look." ”
Sun Zhongren stretched out his hand to take it, and when he saw it, it was Leng Feng's secret message, he knew this code, he had this privilege, and now that he had officially joined the First Division of Honor, this authority was naturally given to him.
"Since the division has an order, how dare Zhongren disobey."
