Chapter 82: Lao Li wants to change his gun
September 2, 1940, Qijiang County, Xiaoxiaochang
The open trial of the bandits is still going on, and in addition to the representatives of the provisional 68th Division, the county government, and the county party headquarters, there is also a jury composed of local gentry, and you will definitely not find fault with the organization.
"Lao Li, are you okay and watch the trial of bandits every day?" Seeing another bandit being escorted to the execution ground on the side, the corners of Wang Yue's mouth twitched unconsciously, Nima, executing with recruits, what a lot of bamboo shoots, ten people, a round of salvo may not kill a person, it is said that the worst guy has been shot more than a hundred times, and your Lao Li can be regarded as a disguised show of weakness to the enemy.
"No, I'll just come out every now and then to show my head, otherwise, how can so many people who want to assassinate Lao Li have a chance." Li Yunlong rubbed his hands and said with a smile, at the beginning, the 68th Division of the Provisional Division really wanted to eliminate harm for the people, this can't be fake, but with the progress of the operation, Li Yunlong found that the suppression of bandits in the rear and the suppression of bandits in Jin Province are really different, these bandits at the junction of Sichuan and Guizhou, which one of them has not been accumulated for decades, those bullies have hundreds of years of family, and the wealth of family assets is by no means comparable to those poor ghost bandits in Jin Province, how long has it been, he has already accumulated millions of oceans of wealth, And that's not even counting the houses, shops, mines, land, and the like.
"Lao Li, I said you, alas!" Wang Yue sighed, he can now scan and monitor the entire Qijiang County, although no one wants to kill Lao Li at this time, but there are really a lot of armed people hidden in the corner, more than before the big bandits, if Li Yunlong continues to play like this, he is really worried that he will suddenly not be able to cross one day.
"It's okay, on the commanding heights around here, Lao Cheng has deployed twenty groups of snipers, ten machine gun groups, and four artillery groups, as long as he doesn't use armored vehicles, he won't do anything at all, besides, Lao Li still has this." As he spoke, Li Yunlong flicked his clothes lightly, and there was a sound of tapping metal.
"This, is it body armor?" Wang Yue also touched it, okay, this guy actually has a four-millimeter arc armored steel plate on the front and back, and the rubber is padded under the steel plate, this protective force, as long as it doesn't hit the head, it's nothing, but didn't this modern body armor appear after the outbreak of war? It is said that after the Bald Eagle entered the war, the chief medical officer, Malcolm Brown, was killed in the war. Under the direction of Colonel C. Groud, the Army's Eighth Air Force pioneered the development of modern armor, and this is still a few years away?
"The Military Command Bureau sent it, saying that it was armor, and the chairman used this thing, seventeen or eighteen pounds, dead and heavy, isn't it the same as ancient armor." Li Yunlong pouted, in the summer of Sichuan Province, wearing this thing is definitely not the slightest bit comfortable, if it weren't for Zhao Gang and a few old comrades-in-arms insisting, he would never wear this thing.
"Original." Wang Yue also understood, his feelings were narrow-minded, isn't body armor a kind of armor, since there was armor in ancient times, until now, what's so strange about putting on a few armor plates?
"The suppression of bandits will not be carried out for a few days, the transportation in the upper reaches of the Qijiang River is inconvenient, and the river is too shallow, if it continues to go deeper, the troops will have to suffer certain casualties, and it is not on the battlefield, and the soldiers cannot be sacrificed in vain." Li Yunlong looked at the small school field, as if muttering to himself, he originally wanted to use bandits to train the army, but he never thought that the bandits here were too unresistant, and it had only been a long time for the bandits in Qijiang County to be almost wiped out.
"Lao Li, I have ordered a batch of shallow-water motor boats for you, which can advance at high speed in the upper reaches of the Qijiang River, and when the time comes, your tentacles can also extend dozens of kilometers to Guizhou Province." Wang Yue knew why Li Yunlong was a little lost, but how could the bandits be easily wiped out, the general environment is like this, and it is unrealistic to want to make a corner of Qijiang County free of banditry, so let's say that the militants in the city who are staring at you are enough to temporarily organize the 68th Division for a long time.
"That's a good dare, it's just that it's still too far away from Wu Heqing, that guy has now mobilized 5,000 people, overhauling fortifications on the main transportation roads, clamoring to build the 'Maginot Line' in Guizhou Province, don't you say it, the bastard is quite talented, and our Lao Li didn't know what the 'Maginot Line' was at the beginning." Li Yunlong really sent someone to fight Wu Heqing, Zhang Dabiao personally sneaked in with a cavalry company, and also brought two 120mm mortars, but he didn't blast away the strong fortifications on Wu Heqing's side, and in the end he had no choice but to turn back, Li Yunlong was embarrassed to mention this matter to Wang Yue.
"Lao Li, how is the pilot you applied for?" Wang Yue saw Li Yunlong's deflated expression, and guessed that Li Yunlong was not telling the truth, thinking that this guy would definitely not be able to enter Wu Heqing's territory, so he remembered the plane in his hand, the field airfield in Qijiang County had been built for a long time, and he didn't get a single plane for Li Yunlong, the reason was also very simple, that is, there were no pilots, and the pilots of the Eighth Route Army were all training intensively in northern Shaanxi and northwest Shanxi.
"I came here two days ago, an instructor, twenty students, every day to ask me for a plane, annoyed to death!" Li Yunlong was so annoyed, in fact, not only the Air Force, but also the superiors brought him a lot of naval cadets, and the training was in full swing every day, but the fuel consumption was really a bit terrifying, if it weren't for the fact that northern Shaanxi would transport fuel through the Sichuan-Shaanxi Highway, he Li Yunlong would be about to cry.
"Cadet? Okay, I'll get you some planes over in the next few days, and let's get the air force up too, otherwise it will be really difficult for the devils to bomb Qijiang one day. Wang Yue nodded, the devil aviation was hurt by himself last time, and it has been a long time since a large-scale bombing was organized, but this situation will definitely not last long, that little loss, with the current industrial capacity of Japan, can be made up soon, I believe that it will not be long before the bombing will start again.
"Brother Wang, it won't be the kind of plane in the northwest of Jinxi, but I've heard that those planes have suffered a lot of losses from fighting devils." Li Yunlong hesitated a little, airplanes are a good thing, but it is very difficult to have no advantage over the Japanese, the quantity cannot be compared, the quality is still not comparable, and as for the pilot's technology, it is not good, so even if there are planes, the improvement of the combat effectiveness of his provisional 68th Division is very limited.
"No, this time the plane is absolutely advanced!" Wang Yue is actually a little weak-hearted, because of his perfect blow in the Indian Ocean, "Super Lag-3" can be regarded as famous, all kinds of orders are coming, a top fighter is 18 million US dollars, Mikoyan and Tasha made 15 million US dollars in tears, as a result, Wang Yue's original order was squeezed out, after all, it was too cheap to sell to Wang Yue, but Mikoyan, who knew that he was at a loss, also offered to provide him with an all-metal fighter for free, as long as he agreed to delay the delivery date of subsequent orders, As for the plane, he hasn't seen it yet, he only knows that it is an all-metal fighter from World War II, which makes Wang Yue feel like he has been wronged.
However, Wang Yue also knew what Tasha meant, this girl was going to sell the "Super Lag-3" all over the world to confuse the Bald Eagle's sight, as if this time, if it wasn't for Tasha's public sale of this kind of aircraft, Bald Eagle would definitely find him as soon as possible.
"Brother Wang, having an aircraft is definitely the best, Commander Zhou of the Air Force has come over several times in the past few days, just to inquire if he can buy new fighters, in the last air battle, the Air Force even sent out training planes, and now in the entire rear, it is said that there is not even a single fighter jet." Li Yunlong suddenly thought of the Air Force, if he could help Brother Wang sell the plane, would he still be able to get less benefits for himself?
"Lao Li, let's wait until I get the plane over." Wang Yue said unconfidently, it was really the air force of the northern powers during World War II, and those planes were too stretched, even more before 1940, that is, the Lager-3 fighter, if there was no Mikoyan's technical blessing, it would be a proper pit, and it was a huge pit.
"Brother Wang, that DP28 light machine gun, I heard that there are 100 rounds of double-layer ammunition?" Li Yunlong nodded, and continued to ask, he really loved the DP28 light machine gun, light weight, balanced rate of fire, high accuracy, easy to use and maintain, solid and durable, good firepower continuity, and it was almost a second to kill all the machine guns he had come into contact with before.
The Eighth Route Army had loved the Czech DP28 light machine gun before, for many reasons, but the most important reason was that the ammunition supply could not keep up, one was a magazine of twenty rounds, the other was a forty-seven rounds of ammunition, a bullet and a rifle were universal, and one of their own side did not have many rifles of the same caliber, compared to each other, the Czech type won, but once the problem of bullet supply can be solved, the DP28 light machine gun has become the perfect squad firepower. 33
"That's too heavy, isn't it? Are you sure you want to equip the LMG with that? Wang Yue also knows that DP28 has a double-layer cartridge, but because of its weight, it is not popular with grassroots troops, let alone 100 rounds of cartridges, even 60 rounds of single-layer cartridges are not popular, and as a squad firepower, 47 rounds of cartridges are enough.
"Recently, in the process of suppressing bandits, the Maxim heavy machine gun did not perform well, it was too heavy, which affected the mobility of the troops, and there was some redundancy in firepower, I plan to withdraw part of the Maxim heavy machine gun, and then fill the vacancy with the DP28 light machine gun." Li Yunlong explained that he was quite polite, in fact, with the system of Chinese soldiers, carrying a heavy Maxim heavy machine gun into the forest is a disaster, and in recent times, many soldiers have not been injured on the battlefield, but were injured while carrying machine guns.
"Okay, I'll bring you some as soon as possible, this time, I also brought you 200 Fiat Lancia 626BL multi-purpose trucks to strengthen the mobility of the troops in your hands, with this kind of car, not only your cannon power can be solved, even the T38 tank can be maneuvered by car, it will be much more convenient. As for fuel, I've also shipped a lot of fuel, which is enough for you for a long time. Wang Yue continued.
"That's a good idea! It's just that the roads in Sichuan Province are really bad. "During this period of time, Li Yunlong has had enough of the suffering of insufficient mobility, whether it is a Jisi 5 truck, a mule or a horse, the traction capacity is limited, and he cannot move quickly with the troops, and once he arrives on the battlefield, his heavy weapons will be greatly restricted.
"The deposit of the Ministry of Military Affairs, I will take it away this time, you ask Lao Zhao to contact the other party, so that they can come to pick up the goods tomorrow, in September, the first batch of goods should also be given to others." Wang Yue reminded that he spent all his purse in 2023, and he didn't want to come over, but he learned that Zhao Gang helped him negotiate a super large order with the Ministry of Military Affairs, and there were several tons of gold in the deposit alone.
"So fast?" Li Yunlong regretted it after asking, which time was not so fast, you don't need to ask him.
"It's all spot, it's all on barges on the high seas, just transport it." Wang Yue glanced at him, the old word is a person who can transport one million cubic meters at a time, if it is replaced by steel, it is more than seven million tons, and the steel output of the little devil today is only how much, as long as the money is in place, we can pile up the little devil.
Some people died, but not completely......
