Jiang Baili didn't have any errands recently, so he stayed in the reserve division, and he wanted to see the real skills of this little brother. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After a night's time, all the formations of the reserve division were adjusted and put into place, and the appearance of the entire unit changed.

Looking at the "Thomson" submachine gun, 82 mortar, and all kinds of light and heavy equipment conjured up by Huang Haoran's guard battalion like a trick, Jiang Baili understood how Minister He could take a fancy to such a new army.

Huang Haoran accompanied Jiang Baili to revisit the preparatory division. Ritchie and his Germans also shed their disguises and followed behind the two men.

Jiang Baili was taken aback when he saw these German staff officers, but he didn't expect Huang Haoran to spend a lot of money on these foreign advisers, which shows that Huang Haoran has invested heavily in his army, not only arming their bodies with expensive American-style equipment, but also arming their minds with German military theories, no wonder Huang Haoran, the person who makes the most money in silver investment, is not willing to spend a penny, this army armed to the teeth is a gold-swallowing beast raised by Huang Haoran!

Shi Jincai's artillery regiment also showed Jiang Baili, the eldest brother of the division, that Shi Artillery's artillery regiment had four artillery battalions, and the first battalion was equipped with 12 20mm anti-aircraft guns and 12 40mm anti-aircraft guns. Among them, 40mm anti-aircraft guns are also a rarity in the Central Army, and the only German 88mm anti-aircraft guns that have been newly shipped from Germany are probably larger than these anti-aircraft guns in the country, but you must know that those 88mm anti-aircraft guns are installed in fortresses and batteries, and the largest mobile anti-aircraft guns equipped by the Chinese army are these 40mm machine guns.

The 2nd Battalion was equipped with 24 37mm anti-aircraft guns, which made the reserve division confident in the face of Japanese tanks, and the weakly defended Japanese tanks and armored vehicles would turn into flaming torches in front of them.

The 3rd Battalion is equipped with 24 90mm mountain guns, all of which are made in Japan, which Wang Huanzhi got from the arsenal in Northeast China through arms dealers.

The 4th Battalion is equipped with 32 75mm Boggs mountain guns, which were smuggled in batches by the old man in Shanghai to Division Commander Huang, and are the latest artillery of the reserve division like the anti-aircraft guns of the first battalion.

Each brigade also had a 105mm heavy mortar company, each regiment was equipped with an 82mm mortar company, and the reserve division would never lose to a Japanese division in artillery fire.

The reserve division of light weapons took advantage of the Japanese army more, and each squad of the main regiment was equipped with 2 "Thomsons", a Czech type and 2 grenadiers, and the firepower density was almost equivalent to that of a Japanese squad.

Even the sappers and baggage troops had a German-made 20 rings each, which was perfect for self-defense and close combat.

Jiang Baili was also full of praise for the equipment of the sapper shovel, and said that he must recommend to the highest authorities that it should be vigorously promoted, because this kind of weapon, which can effectively improve the speed of building fortifications and the melee combat ability of the troops, and does not cost much, is really too suitable for the current Chinese army!

Jiang Baili was full of energy every day during the few days in the reserve division, and Huang Haoran thought to himself that this was where Jiang Baili, a great military strategist, could perform......

Jiang Baili gave Huang Haoran a lot of advice and military knowledge on leading soldiers, and every day, the two of them talked about dawn in the bedroom......

"You Chen means that there will inevitably be a war between China and Japan in Shanghai?"

It was Jiang Baili who spoke, and it has been like this for the past few days, Jiang Baili became more and more excited at night, and always threw out a topic to discuss with Master Huang.

"Yes, if you look at our map of China, is it like a rooster, Jinling is now the heart of our rooster, is there a better choice than to go straight to Huanglong from Shanghai? Moreover, the Japanese now have a garrison in Shanghai, which is equivalent to planting a nail in advance, which can be stabbed in our hearts at any time! ”

Huang Haoran sat up from the bed and pulled over the military map placed next to the bed, which was a map of China that was a few years old, and a rooster jumped onto the paper......

Jiang Baili also leaned over wrapped in the quilt, pointed to the map and said:

"The Japanese don't have soldiers only in Shanghai, Northeast! The little devil has been in business for many years, the earliest from the late Qing Dynasty, there are Japanese mechanized troops living very close to the city of Beiping, North China is a plain, the Japanese have always liked to study Chinese history, don't they want to be Kublai Khan? Attack us from the north? ”

Jiang Baili is worthy of being a military master, and he can see the current layout of the Japanese in China at a glance, and this inference is also consistent with Tokyo's attitude towards China's use of troops, but Jiang Baili does not know that in history it was he himself who made the Japanese give up the strategy of concentrating on North China to break through and move to East China!

"Yes, as Brother Baili said, North China is a plain, which is suitable for the Japanese mechanized troops, but don't we already know the wishful thinking of the little devil now? Do you want to let the little devils learn from Kublai Khan unscrupulously? Why can't we let their mechanized troops get caught up in the water network of East China? To do a good job of this article, Shanghai! It's one of our pens! ”

Huang Haoran slapped his hand on the position of Shanghai a few times, Jiang Baili was attracted by Huang Haoran's movements, and turned his attention back to Shanghai, a city that was actually no longer in Nanjing's hands......

"It is not so easy to pull the Japanese to the direction of East China, starting from the north is planned by the Tokyo Military Department for many years, every step from the northeast, the Japanese are aiming at the north, Japan's policy towards our China has been formed since the time of Ito Hirobumi! First the Northeast, then China! The Japanese are notoriously brainless! What's more, there are still a large number of concessions from Western countries in Shanghai today, and the Japanese will inevitably be tied up when they move here, will they really be stupid enough to jump their feet into the quagmire? ”

Jiang Baili had been to Japan in his early years, so he had a relatively deep understanding of the consistent thinking of the Japanese and the Japanese military department, and he once said something like this:

"There are two things in Japan that are incorrigible, one is the Japanese military department and the other is the Japanese army!"

Jiang Baili, who admired the German military, never took the Japanese Bushido seriously, and in his eyes Bushido was synonymous with anti-humanity and paranoia......

"It's a pity! Hirobumi Ito is dead! Today's Japan is no longer the same Japan it was in the Meiji era! ”

Huang Haoran categorically overturned Jiang Baili's point of view, and he calmly stated his reasons:

"Hirobumi Ito is truly a genius in Japan's recent history! Under his leadership, Japan has completed the transformation of an invaded country into a powerful country, Ito Hirobumi's policy towards China is to boil frogs in warm water, which is indeed extremely vicious, and it is also very in line with the actual situation of Japan, a small country swallowing a big country, but unfortunately Japan has gained too many benefits in the war in the past few decades, and the Japanese army has been immersed in the myth of 'the imperial army is invincible', although this spiritual myth can make soldiers more effective on the battlefield, but he also has a fatal problem, that is, arrogance! In the eyes of these young officers, those old guys who have already made a name for themselves no longer have the motivation to conquer the world, and have become a stumbling block to their young and strong faction, making it impossible for them to achieve their own honor! Although these mutinies were suppressed by the emperor, the wind in Japan has changed, and the previous steady and steady battle has become more like quick victory! Therefore, Shanghai, this excellent stage where you can show your Japanese muscles in front of the Western world, even if the minds of the military department are not interested, the young Zhuang faction below will have the right to promote the war in Shanghai! It can be said that the flames of the war in Shanghai have long been burning in Tokyo, and all we need is to pour oil on the fire! ”
