After looking at a detachment of the steel industry, the automotive industry, the military industry.

Then, the leaders rushed to Ding Wei's new regiment base to visit the new chemical plant specially built by the new regiment.

The initial construction of this new group of new chemical plants relied on the enterprises that moved devils everywhere and introduced chemical enterprises, including various explosive factories, synthetic ammonia, synthetic rubber, coal chemical industry, phosphorus chemical industry, potash fertilizer, nitrogen fertilizer, etc.

The chemical industry park has begun to take shape.

The leaders sat in the viewing car, and with Ding Wei's introduction on the side, they watched the development of the new chemical industry everywhere, and they all smiled from ear to ear.

On the way to watch, talk about the fiasco of the Japanese army in the May Day Sweep.

Commander Fu showed great interest, he was eager to know how the Eighth Route Army did all this, you know, it was an unprecedented sweep launched by the devils who had accumulated almost the strength of the entire North China side.

If it were replaced by his 35th Route Army, under such a strong sweep by the devils, he might be wiped out by the whole army.

is in the territory of the new regiment, Ding Wei, as the leader of the new regiment, everyone's eyes quickly converged on him, and they all wanted to hear his thoughts.

The generals of the Eighth Route Army, who are familiar with Ding Wei, know that Ding Wei has always had a long-term vision and a unique ability to analyze the situation.

In the end, Ding Wei was not modest, but replied after thinking for a while: "I won't mention other reasons, just one point."

In fact, in this May Day sweep, the devil made a fatal mistake.

It's just that the combat materials are not enough to carry, so they enter our base area......"

The actual situation at that time was that at the pre-war military meetings, Okamura repeatedly stressed the need to protect the logistics line and material supply line, and bring enough supplies before entering the mountain.

After fighting the Eighth Route Army in North China for so many years, Okamura had already figured out the targeted tactics of the Eighth Route Army, especially those who liked to destroy the Empire's transportation and logistics lines.

After launching this unprecedented sweep, he has also been on guard against this part.

However, the Japanese troops who participated in the May Day Sweep this time included field troops drawn from various theaters in addition to the descendants under Okamura's command.

The perception of the Eighth Route Army by these field troops is still based on the battles in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War and the false propaganda of the Eighth Route Army in recent years.

There are not a few officers who believe that "the Eighth Route Army is a three-gun and eight-way army, and a single shot can penetrate the base area of the Eighth Route Army." The materials they carry during the battle are even less than half of the materials required for the operation.

Some Japanese officers even believed that the Eighth Route Army relied entirely on capture to fight the war, and if it brought less supplies, the Eighth Route Army would capture less and consume the Eighth Route Army.

Ding Wei's voice continued.

“…… What the devil doesn't know is that we have established a stable supply system and have produced and hoarded a lot of materials in advance.

As soon as the devil came, the first seven days of fighting were frequent and consumed, and we dragged on until the second week, when we still had ammunition, but the devil began to run out of ammunition.

Under our high-intensity blows, the devils only remembered to transport supplies, but unfortunately, it was in vain to cheapen our attack troops lurking in advance.

The troops behind the devils to protect the transportation line and the material line are empty, and we are all elites lurking in a roundabout way, and we can easily cut off the transportation line of the devil.

As a result, the Japanese troops who fought deep into our base areas could not receive effective material supply and replenishment.

Not to mention that it is not enough to eat and drink, even the ammunition, after many days of continuous fighting, is almost consumed.

Later, the devils failed to penetrate our base area, and the materials could not be delivered, and the retreat could not leave, so they fell into passivity.

Therefore, the ability to successfully defeat the Japanese army in the May Day Cleanup this time was not only the strength of our own military strength, but also the victory in logistics support! ”

Kong Jie echoed with a smile: "What Lao Ding said is right, not only that, I think from now on, even if the Japanese army wants to launch a sweep against our base areas, it will have to consider whether their logistics supply can keep up." ”

Today, the area of the Eighth Route Army's base area is getting larger and larger, and some of them can even reach hundreds or thousands of kilometers in depth.

During the period when the Japanese army went deep into the base areas to sweep up, the logistics support line would become longer and longer, and the Eighth Route Army completely crushed the Japanese army in terms of logistical support with the help of the solid logistics supply in the base areas.

Under such circumstances, the Japanese army's sweep was naturally becoming more and more difficult.

However, Kong Jie went on to propose: "Of course, the little devil is not stupid, and now he has learned to be smart, according to the information I have found, the Japanese army has even begun to authorize various military towns to make full use of the resources of the occupied areas, produce materials on the spot, and replenish the war losses." ”

Li Yunlong said: "That's better, let's raise some towns and villages occupied by the devil as pigs, this pig is fattened, let's go and slaughter a few of them, isn't it possible to eat meat in the New Year according to the ground?" ”

When everyone heard this, they all burst out laughing.

Li Yunlong said, and beckoned his old comrades-in-arms and leaders to visit his new second regiment.

The industrial zone of this detachment, the automobile industry, and the penicillin industry, but they have already shown their big faces, and the chemical industry of this old Ding's new regiment is also a lot more brilliant, and then it will be the industrial zone of his new second regiment.

How could the old brigade commander not understand Li Yunlong's thoughts, and scolded with a smile: "Li Yunlong, you want to take us to visit your new second regiment, and we will pass by for a while, if we find that the development of your regiment is far inferior to that of the first team and the new regiment, then we will laugh at you!" ”

Li Yunlong immediately patted his chest and promised: "That can't be, his team and the new regiment are all good things, and our new second regiment is not far behind!" ”

As a result, the cars turned their heads, and then drove all the way from the new regiment to the base area of the new second regiment along the asphalt road that had been paved between each other in the iron triangle.

The leaders on the road couldn't help but sigh, the road is stable, the speed of the vehicles is fast, and the connection and transportation between the iron triangle are really convenient enough.

With the car running at full speed, it will take less than half an hour to reach each other's bases.

No wonder that over the years, the Iron Triangle, as the gateway to the northwest of Shanxi, with the help of the mutual cooperation of the three regiments, it is difficult for the little devils to cross the thunder pool by half a step.

Soon, a group of visitors rushed to Li Yunlong's new second group.

Li Yunlong happily and Zhao Gang rushed to the various industrial areas of the new second regiment with the visiting old comrades-in-arms and leaders.

There was no rush to the industrial zone.

Instead, I visited the chicken farm and duck farm.

Rushed to the venue, everyone looked around, and the fat chickens and ducks flying around in the field were happily gouging around, and seeing the arrival of everyone, they were still looking at the thieves.

Commander Cheng of the 772 Regiment took the lead in sighing: "Lao Li, Lao Li, you are living the life of a rich man, so many chickens and ducks, when do you have to eat this?" ”

Commander Xu of the 771st Regiment echoed: "That's it, this Lao Li is now generous and rich, I see that our old comrades-in-arms come to visit this time, but they can't come in vain, I don't care about others when I leave, Lao Li, you take a sack and load me with five chickens and five ducks, and I will bring them back and give them a taste for the political commissar!" ”

As soon as the other regiment commanders heard that there was such a good thing, they also opened their mouths one after another, some asked for three or five, and some lions opened their mouths, saying that if they didn't put twenty or thirty on them, they would not leave the new second regiment.

This frightened Li Yunlong, and he quickly changed his face and said:

"Don't, don't, don't! I said, what are you guys doing? This still looks like an old comrade-in-arms, this is clearly a group of bandits!

Don't say these chickens and ducks are you, our Lao Li is reluctant to eat them, they are all used to lay eggs!

Laying hens and ducks, the meat is old, not eaten, and the taste is very poor! ”

The commander-in-chief from Yan'an listened to it and laughed: "I have long heard that our Comrade Li Yunlong has always been the master who does not suffer losses, but he is still an iron rooster, this is a dime!" ”

Li Yunlong replied: "Leader, you don't know, these chickens and ducks are the public property of our new Second Regiment, and they belong to the soldiers of our whole regiment, not my Li Yunlong's.

If this is our Li Yunlong's own chicken and duck, I will give three or five to each of the comrades present if I say anything.

You can't say that I'm stingy! ”

"Comrade Li Yunlong's consciousness is really good, but I am wrong to blame the good comrade! Okay, comrades, don't worry about Comrade Li Yunlong's chickens and ducks, let's continue to visit! ”

In the midst of laughter, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang took everyone to visit the new group of grenades, mines, aerial bombs, mortars and other production plants.

Looking at the military production base of the new Second Regiment, which is already quite large-scale.

The old comrades-in-arms and leaders have been touched for a long time.

The days of lack of guns and artillery and lack of military industrial foundation in the past are finally gone forever.

Now the situation is getting better day by day, and the military production base built by Li Yunlong's regiment and the various equipment and weapons produced by this regiment can completely supply the equipment needed by the new second regiment and the surrounding regiments.

Then there was an amazement at the various military products created by the new Second Regiment.

In particular, the Soviet-made 82 mortar, 120 mortar, 160 mortar, and American-made 107 mortar production line introduced by Kong Jie.

With the support of a team of alloy steel, these mortars can be put into trial production, and once the trial production is successful, more equipment and technology can be introduced for large-scale production in the future.

At that time, it may be like Li Yunlong said, "One of our whole regiment is counted as one, and one person will be sent a mortar, and then the war will not even need us to charge into battle, and we will blow up all the little devils at a distance of a few kilometers!" ”

Then, Li Yunlong proudly invited everyone to observe the test of the new mortar.

Li Yunlong tested all five groups of 107, 120, and 160 types of mortars, the first group was transported by Toma, and then assembled and fired; The second group of heavy motorcycles was transported to the wheeled gun carriage and went to the test area to directly construct artillery fortifications for firing; The third group was transported by special trucks and went directly to the place to carry out artillery stationing hoe firing; Fourth, assemble on the modified armored vehicle, go to the test area and stop directly to shoot with the assistance of a robotic arm; The fifth assembly was previously tested on the tank site of the M1 self-propelled 75 howitzer provided by John, and this model was transformed in this area by using many devil tanks in the early stage, and the experience was very mature.

With the help of an improved semi-automatic loader, the self-propelled mortar vehicle drove to the test area and stopped, and after aiming at the target area, it immediately withdrew with a few shells in a short time, which took a very short time.

The last way of launching made the commander-in-chief, deputy commander-in-chief, and big leader look at it for a long time.

This is a large-caliber mortar, the devil's Type 97 150 heavy mortar everyone has seen, but it has never been able to reach the firing area in a few minutes, and it is immediately evacuated after a few shells.

This type of attack is simply subversive.

Even Commander Fu slapped his thigh in amazement, calling this a revolutionary weapon!

Kong Jie said: "The military industrial base of our Eighth Route Army is not as good as that of the little devils, so the use of these large-caliber heavy artillery should also be different from the Japanese army's strategic centralized artillery strike methods.

Using this tracked light self-propelled artillery, you can leave after the fight, and you will never drag mud and water, so that the little devils can't react at all.

This large-caliber heavy artillery can give full play to its mobility and the power of large-caliber artillery in the terrain environment of our base area.

We put the 120 howitzer and the Type 97 150 mortar on the territory of the old tank before, and the effect is very good, and the semi-automatic loader developed now is much better than the previous manual robotic arm.

This is also due to the mass production of alloy steels, which are stronger and have a stronger carrying capacity, which allows them to install a semi-automatic loader for self-propelled mortar vehicles with reduced weight. ”

At this time, the old brigade commander who was looking around with a telescope, still thinking about what else was good, suddenly found that there were several mortars with longer barrels and wider tracks, which were not self-propelled mortar vehicles that had been remodeled from the battlefield in 97.

He asked: "Kong Jie, are you self-propelled artillery that has been converted from the territory of American-made tanks?" ”

Kong Jie said: "These are long-barreled 107,160 mortar vehicles modified from the American-made M3 general site, and there are also auxiliary semi-automatic loading machines, the difference is that they lengthen the barrel, pull the rifling, have a longer range and higher accuracy, plus the new sights are more convenient to use, these are for the US military to modify and try to go to the Pacific Ocean, and the Soviet observers are also very interested, willing to use the production line for the transformation plan and use data." ”

As soon as this remark came out.

Commander Fu, as well as the generals of the Eighth Route Army, couldn't wait to get in the car and follow the test.

Commander Fu looked at the artillery carriage, and said directly to Li Yunlong and Kong Jie: "I am willing to take two hundred gold bars, as well as a batch of devil tanks that have been captured and damaged over the years, and dismantle the site, can you help me transform a batch of such combat vehicles and equip my military heavy artillery regiment?"

Of course, if you have any other conditions, I'll try to meet them all! ”

As soon as these words were spoken, the commanders of the base areas were reluctant.

Who doesn't love this good thing?

Isn't it just a matter of exchanging things?

Your old man wants it, and we still want it!

The so-called building near the water gets the moon first, so it can't be your turn to be in front, right?

The devil emperor can't get it, everything in the jurisdiction can be moved and changed, anyway, it's all devils, just grab it.

Head Cheng was even more anxious, wondering if he should follow the example of Lao Wang when he went to Licheng to rob a bank, go to other counties to grab a handful, and make some money.

Brigade Commander Yang even said: "Lao Kong, there is a lot of equipment in the Longyan mining area in Zhangjiakou, we have done a lot of preliminary work, let's cooperate to grab a wave, you give me a batch of such artillery trucks first, how about it?" ”
