788, rat thrower

After the special combat team explored and sorted out the enemy's situation, Bai Shujie finally had a preliminary impression of the basic situation on the Korean Peninsula.

Although he appeared on the peninsula, the enemy had not yet fully reacted. So far, the situation on the Korean Peninsula has not deviated from the historical trajectory.

The 19th Division was originally created to defend against the Russian Red Army, and it still is. The 74th Infantry Wing, also known as the "Leopard Wing", is known for its fierce attacks and quick assaults.

After the Zhang Gufeng incident broke out ahead of schedule, because the Mudanjiang River had been burned down and the murderer had not been identified, the 74th Wing was currently deployed on the Dunhua-Hunchun line, focusing on the Soviet Russian long-haired people east of Zhang Gufeng.

Since the "tragedy" of an infantry brigade being burned down in Mudanjiang, the search for the 19th Wing (light cavalry) has been forced to take over the defense of Mudanjiang.

According to the original historical trajectory, it was impossible for these two wings to return to the sequence of the 19th Division, but to return to the base camp as the backbone of the formation of the 30th Division.

The 75th Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Sato Kotoku Daisa, was originally drawn to form an independent mixed second brigade in order to reinforce the "North China Incident", but was blown into the sea by Wei Chong's shell, and Wing Commander Sato Kotoku Osa was killed on the spot. The base camp of the little devils has a big disagreement on whether to rebuild the 75th Wing.

Unless something particularly serious happens, the little devils don't have the energy to increase or decrease their troops for the time being. Because the main direction of the little devil now is to take Nanjing and force Jiang to surrender.

It is precisely because, for example, the current 19th Division actually has only one brigade and regiment. Subordinate:

The 73rd Infantry Wing, known as the "Tiger Wing", was stationed in the front line of Huining, Maoshan and Wufeng. The 19th Division became the "Tiger Division" because of the fame it gained from this wing.

The 76th Infantry Wing, Wing Commander Toha Hiroji Daisa, mainly defended the coastline and protected the ports of Xiongji, Kiyojin, and Jotsu. It is not easy to defend hundreds of kilometers of coastline, and there is no time to be distracted for the time being.

There is also the 25th Wing of Mountain Artillery stationed in Ronan, and the captain of the wing is the first lieutenant; The 19th Engineer Wing was stationed in Huining, Sato Takayasu Osa; The armored vehicle wing was stationed in Ronan, and the wing commander Akinaga was Osa.

It is worth mentioning that after suffering a heavy loss in the Zhang Gufeng conflict, this armored vehicle wing was equipped with 24 Type 97 medium combat vehicles of a brigade and 24 Type 91 heavy combat vehicles of a brigade. It seems that the little devil is not convinced, and is ready to fight another tank battle or something.

After receiving relevant information, Bai Shujie found that the little devil began to change under his guidance.

The Type 91 heavy tank was not equipped with armored units of little devils in history. Because this so-called heavy tank, the weight is only 18 tons. When the little devils did not see the Soviet tank, they thought that 18 tons was already heavy.

There are two biggest problems with the Type 91 heavy tank: the first problem is that it is too slow, only 25 kilometers per hour. The second problem is that the little devil actually installed two Type 94 70mm tank guns on a tank with a total weight of 18 tons.

The most incredible thing is that in front of the main turret, there is also a secondary turret with a 6.5mm machine gun, which is simply taking off your pants and farting!

Everyone on earth knows that the little devil's 6.5mm machine gun is the worst light machine gun in the world. The little devil is not too cold, and he actually put this kind of thing on a heavy tank, I don't know which tendon is wrong, or the little devil's ancestral nerves are problematic!

In Zhang Gufeng, he has already suffered a loss, and all the little devil's bean chariots have been turned into pieces, and he has not learned his lesson.

Because the 18-ton Type 91 "heavy" tank is not at all an opponent of the Soviet Russian long-haired T-28 medium tank. The T-28 medium tank has a total combat weight of 25.2 tons, which is 7 tons more than the "heavy tank" of the little devil!

First of all, the thickness of the armor of the T-28 is 15~30 mm, although it is not thick, but the little devil is even more cold, and the thickness of the armor is only a pitiful 12mm. A 7.62 caliber rifle can penetrate the armor of the 91 type at close range, let alone a 12.7 caliber heavy machine gun!

Second, the Little Devil's Type 91 and the Long-haired T-28 are both multi-turret structures. But the little devil used a 70mm main gun, and the long hairy man used a 76.2mm main gun, and the main turret rotated electrically, which was very advanced at the time. The little devil has 1 6.5mm machine gun, and the long hairy has 3 DT7.62mm machine guns.

When Bai Shujie thought of these contents, he began to sing mourning for the little devil's tanker.

However, the little devil took out the latest Type 97 medium chariot, which made Bai Shujie attract some attention at that time. Because this tank weighs 15 tons in battle, it is known as the "forest killer" and can operate in complex terrain conditions.

However, Bai Shujie knew that the northeast region of North Korea was full of lofty mountains and mountains, and this tank wing could not come up at all. If you attack along the river valley, the recoilless cannon is just waiting for it.

On the South Korean side, the 20th Division has not yet returned, and there is no pressure at present. In short, on the Korean Peninsula at present, Bai Shujie's strength and firepower have an absolute advantage, and basic security is guaranteed.

The little devil's army is empty, and he definitely doesn't dare to act rashly now. Bai Shujie has a strong army, but when he first arrived, he didn't understand anything, and now is not the time to fight, and there will be no big battles for the time being.

Rat-thrower! This is the case on both sides of the Korean Peninsula today. Both sides are afraid of setting themselves on fire, and when the time comes, they will never recover.

The little devil was waiting for his strength to improve, and Bai Shujie finally seized the last chance.

First of all, Shi Liancheng's Feilong First Division has completed the defense line of the Licheng River in accordance with the predetermined plan. Bai Shujie ordered the railway to speed up the transportation of the looted railroad tracks, and the fortifications are currently being constructed.

The key was to send the artillery regiment of the 1st Division of Slenseong and build strong fortifications in preparation for the attack on Kaesong. Of course, it's hard to say when Kaesong will be taken.

Secondly, Liu Zhiliang's Feilong Third Division, which has gained a firm foothold on the Jinchuan River, is building fortifications. The process is also very simple, because the little devils do not have troops here.

As for Wei Chong's 4th Division and Chen Jie's 2nd Division in the north, they also seized the time to complete their defensive positions and welcome the arrival of winter.

The front line was busy, and the railway regiment had also entered a critical stage of formation, and Bai Shujie and his members of the headquarters began to plan for more long-term problems.

First of all, there was the issue of the resumption of production in the arsenal, especially the production line of artillery shells. Originally, the production of heavy artillery shells was very low, and this time, in order to completely solve the 4th Division, almost all the shells of the two bases were exhausted.

Later, a heavy artillery wing of the 4th Division was captured, 24 Type 92 105mm field cannons, and the result was that the shells were 96 rounds per cannon in two bases. Now all of them are deployed along the Yalu River and belong to the heavy artillery regiment of Chen Jie's Second Division.

Later, I learned that Shi Liancheng's 1st Division had captured a large ammunition depot in Jinzhou, which was mainly ammunition supplies for aircraft and some light and heavy machine gun bullets, and it seemed that Jinzhou did not have ammunition for field divisions.

In this way, Bai Shujie's plan to "feed the war with war" completely failed. At present, all the heavy artillery shells are still 14,000 rounds of 105mm shells transported by the baggage troops during the Spring Festival.

At present, the two heavy artillery regiments of the artillery division have a total of 96 105mm cannons, and these reserves are only two bases of the artillery division, and others cannot use them at all.

Shi Liancheng's 1st Division, Liu Zhiliang's 2nd Division, and Wei Chong's 4th Division all had a heavy artillery battalion, which together was 72 105mm cannons. Now their heavy artillery battalion has not fired artillery, and the ammunition reserve of each artillery is also strategically transferred from two bases.

Now, Bai Shujie is most concerned about Luo Qingsong's railway regiment, after the 6 columns of armored vehicles were refitted, it was originally planned to take out 2 columns equipped with 4 105mm cannons. If the arsenal does not start immediately reloading shells, there will be no shells available for the rest of the projectiles.

Secondly, the expansion of the hangar at the airport is imminent, and once it enters the freezing period, the aircraft will be placed outside with too strict wear and tear. The little devil used to have a flying wing (equivalent to a flying regiment) here, but there was only a 24-seat hangar.

At the last meeting, Zhang Nianzu proposed to divide the aviation division into two because there was no place to store the plane. Instead of building a hangar in the same place, it would be better to build a separate airfield.

This Jian yƬ was right, so Bai Shujie quickly adopted it. In the end, it was decided to build a plateau airfield in the alpine basin of Myoxiang Mountain, which could support operations in all directions.

The third problem to be solved is the dockyard of the detachment. The equipment of the four shipyards has been moved, and there are mountains of railroad tracks, if you can't "copy a few ships" out, the technical level of the workers will never be improved, Bai Shujie feels very disadvantaged.

At present, all kinds of cargo ships that have been received by the Ministry of Equipment are 135 guys of more than 500 tons, and in addition to the freighter of the little devil, it is the large fishing boat of the fishing company of the little devil. Bai Shujie is more interested in the 2,500-ton 11-ton search cargo ship of the little devil.

Others don't know, but Bai Shujie knows that the "shallow water heavy gunboat" played a huge role in the process of World War II. On 1 November 1944, the Roberts took part in the attack on the Dutch island of Walcheren and shelled German artillery positions north of Westkapelle.

Of course, Bai Shujie didn't know if he could "copy" out the Roberts-class shallow water heavy gunboats. Because the Roberts-class shallow-water heavy gunboats, with a full load displacement of nearly eight thousand tons, are larger than heavy cruisers. The standard displacement of the Abecrombi shallow-water ship has reached a terrifying 8,563 tons, and the full load displacement exceeds 10,000 tons.

What Bai Shujie values is the guiding ideology for the design of the Roberts-class shallow water heavy gunboat, which basically borrows the shape of the destroyer and increases the freeboard size to facilitate the resistance to wind and waves on the sea.

The current technical question is whether two 1,000-horsepower steam turbines can be put on one ship. As long as this problem is solved, Bai Shujie wants to really "copy" a Roberts-class shallow water heavy gunboat.

The last time Bai Shujie asked Lu Ming to negotiate with Perry on his behalf, highlighting the need for 1,000 105mm, 150mm, 240mm, and 410mm gun barrels, he already had this consideration.

Others naturally don't know why Bai Shujie didn't buy artillery directly, but wanted to buy cannon barrels, but he had an account in his heart.

The production line of the Dagu Shipyard was obtained, and six production lines were brought back from Jinzhou, except for the cannon barrel, other parts could be produced.

Anyway, his head is full of all kinds of drawings, as long as he has a cannon barrel, he can "copycat" a batch of large-caliber artillery, and it can suppress the things of the little devils.

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
