Chapter 212: Seven Thousand Wounded Soldiers

To put it simply, it is the mobility of the armored forces, the firepower, the protection force, the combat method is also based on raiding the enemy's flank and rear, try not to launch a strong attack from the front of the Japanese army, although the "blitzkrieg" has achieved great success, but the devils who have suffered a big loss if they still don't learn well, they are too mentally retarded, you must know that China is not comparable to Europe, the flat terrain is less than 20% of the total area, the area that can carry out armored cluster assault is very limited, and it is easy to carry out targeted defense in advance

For the same reason, Ma Zhongying pointed out that the main combat object of the "armored cavalry division" (see later for details) is the light armed troops of the Japanese army, and unless it is an ambush battle under the superiority of intelligence, it generally does not fight against the enemy's armored forces, because the Chinese tanks are too small, and the number of armored troops is also seriously lacking, even if the exchange ratio of 1:5 is a loss, and where is the exchange ratio of 1:5 so easy to fight?

Ma Zhongying's idea is very much in line with the great man's strategic thinking, that is, the so-called "you fight yours, I will fight mine." Due to the limitation of national strength, China's tanks can't fight Japan's tanks, but our tanks are still no problem fighting devil infantry cavalry, and our infantry anti-tank capabilities with a variety of new tactics and rocket launchers and other infantry anti-tank weapons equipment troops, at present can also be called shijie first, since the advantage is here, why not make full use of it? After this idea was further elaborated, it was derived that "we have too few planes to defeat Japan's air forces, but there is always a chance to seize the opportunity to suddenly dispatch bombing devils, especially devil's armored units, which are naturally afraid of air raids, by taking advantage of intelligence superiority." "And so on for more new thinking, new tactics. This made the people's army more and more handy in the subsequent war of resistance

Ma Zhongying's addition undoubtedly added a fierce general to the already strong 15th Army, and what made Hu Weidong even happier was that Sun Liren, a famous general he had been chasing for several years, finally gave up and insisted on joining the 15th Army. This matter also starts with the Songhu Anti-Japanese War, during which Sun Liren's tax police regiment fought bravely and suffered heavy casualties, and even Sun Liren himself was seriously injured and comatose for a time, but after the war, the remnants of this elite army were treated differently. The officers and men who were healthy and lightly wounded were all divided among the various units of the Central Army as treasures, while the seven or eight thousand officers and men who were seriously injured, including Sun Liren, were left behind and left unattended, and even the number of the unit was revoked. Even returning to the team has become a luxury. Only more than 5,000 of these people survived in history, and after Sun Liren recovered from his injury, he left the relationship between Song Ziwen and Kong Xiangxi, and it took more than half a year to get the opportunity to lead the troops again. The 5,000 wounded soldiers were also the initial teams of the new 38th Division, the Indian Army, and the New First Army. And Hu Weidong has been paying attention to Sun Liren, how could he let go of this opportunity to send charcoal in the snow?

With the help of the full amount of penicillin provided by the Central Plains Border Region free of charge, the vast majority of the seven or eight thousand wounded soldiers survived, and although the output of penicillin is now increasing, the production cost is still not low, and the market price is even more terrifying, and if the penicillin provided by the Central Plains Border Region is calculated according to the market price, it even exceeds 1 million oceans, and even those who are most disgusted with the Red Party among the wounded were all moved at that time. As for Sun Liren. In fact, he regretted it soon after returning to the tax police corps, but he wanted to save face, and now Hu Weidong and the Red Party showed the sincerity of "three visits to the thatched house", and his subordinates repeatedly persuaded him, and Sun Liren, who was able to get off the donkey down the slope, accepted Hu Weidong's invitation again within a few days. By the way, he also brought more than 7,000 wounded soldiers, these are all first-class good soldiers, how many people would have to die on the battlefield if the 15th Army cultivated it itself?

Even those veterans who were disabled by injuries and could no longer go to the battlefield, Hu Weidong saw their great value, and although he couldn't fight himself, he could still teach others how to fight. Wouldn't it be appropriate to assign them to a recruit company to be in charge of training? In the eyes of the more than 7,000 officers and men of the former Tax Police Corps, this is to arrange work for those comrades-in-arms who have lost their ability to work, and they are more and more grateful.

Although Sun Liren joined a little late, many generals during the Red Army period had listened to his lectures, and the "Drill Code" was placed there, and the 15 th Army was generally recognized for his military talent, and Taizu, who personally revised the "Chinese National Defense Force's All-Arms Drill Code", also admired Sun Liren's general talent very much, so he authorized Sun Liren, who had not yet joined the party, to serve as the commander of the newly built integrated division of the 15 th Army (the political commissar was Mao Zetan). But to Hu Weidong's surprise, the number that Lao Jiang finally reluctantly approved turned out to be the new 38th Division, which was exactly the same as the heroic army that Sun Liren became famous in history

However, in terms of strength and equipment, the new 38th Division of the 15th Army is much stronger than the historical unit of the same name. In order to allow Sun Liren to give full play to his strengths in attacking, Hu Weidong spent a lot of money and gave priority to all kinds of new equipment to the new 38th Division, making this unit not only powerful in firepower, but also the first motorized infantry division in the true sense of Chinese history

To be able to form such a powerful modern army, it is enough to show how great the achievements have been made in the industrial construction of the Central Plains border region in the past year, taking the automobile industry that has just been established as an example, although the scale can not be compared with the super giant like Ford, but if you only talk about product categories, it has basically realized the complete construction of the automobile industry system, although the Luoyang Automobile Factory has been officially listed for less than half a year, but has formed a monthly output of 500 walk-behind tractors, 200 medium-sized tractors, 100 jeeps, 200 4-ton off-road trucks, 100 10-ton heavy trucks, and can manufacture large tractors, rollers, bulldozers, cranes, mixers and other heavy vehicles with a strong production capacity, and do not need jishu upgrades, as long as there is enough investment to add, the production capacity can be rapidly expanded to form a scale effect

Of course, the automobile industry can quickly reach such a level, and the direct and indirect support of Ford is inseparable, in contrast, although the aircraft manufacturing industry has a large number of equipment that Hu Weidong got at the beginning, there is no lack of outstanding talents, but because of this unbasic relationship, the initial stage is much more difficult than the automobile industry, (you are welcome to your support, is my biggest motivation.) )
