Chu Yunfei didn't understand.

Why did the Independent Regiment dare to build roads with such fanfare? Moreover, looking at this posture, it seems that it is not only satisfied with a little widening and leveling of the horse road, but intends to continue to strengthen and widen it, and build a hard road.

It can withstand heavy trucks and even tanks on the road.

Who gave them the guts?

Aren't you afraid of making a dowry for the devil?

"It seems that Commander Chu doesn't know much about the strength of my independent regiment."

Zhao Gang replied with a smile.

The purpose of Chu Yunfei's arrival this time, Zhao Gang could naturally guess, it was nothing more than to see the 358th Regiment stationed and the Independent Regiment approaching, to probe the reality of the Independent Regiment, and to prepare for future changes in the situation.

Then, let them take a look at part of the strength of the independent regiment, there is no benefit in hiding it, but it can only make people gain an inch.

By the way, you can also try Li Yunlong's tireless display of taste.

It seems that this independent regiment is very confident in its own strength····· Chu Yunfei's complexion remained unchanged:

"Why did Brother Zhao say that?"

"Captain Chu will know next."

Zhao Gang stretched out his hand forward.

The convoy continued along the road between the valleys, and soon, Chu Yunfei saw the change.

You can still see a large number of people expanding and repairing the road, but unlike before, the army began to appear here, and some people wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army were mixed in with the crowd of people building the road, and fortifications were being built.

Looking ahead, you can see in the distance a large number of bunkers, machine gun fire points, fortresses, and anti-artillery holes that have been repaired or are under construction.

At the top of the mountain, you can also faintly see people building fortifications.

"Great Depth Fortifications."

Head Chu took a deep breath.

It is inevitable and necessary to build a large number of fortifications in the garrison of any army, but such a scale and depth is simply unbelievable for a regimental-level unit.

But it is undeniable that the greater the depth of the fortifications, the longer the troops can hold out in the face of the attack of the superior enemy, but the more troops are needed.

The Independent Regiment is planning to fight a battle with the devil here?

Chu Yunfei didn't speak, but continued to watch.

The convoy continued to move forward, and a large number of well-built fortifications could still be seen around the perimeter, Zhao Jiayu could already be seen here, and a battalion of troops was stationed in the surrounding fortifications.

"Captain Chu."

Looking at Chu Yunfei's shocked expression, Zhao Gang suddenly stopped the convoy, and then pointed to the fortification group in the distance and said:

"Let's take a look at the fortifications of my independent regiment, Commander Chu is a high-achieving student of Huangpu, born in a professional class, and after formal military education, he must have studied the construction of fortifications, so please take a look and give some advice."

"Then Chu is better to be respectful than to obey his fate."

Chu Yunfei immediately agreed.

The group got out of the car and walked along the widened mountain road to a bunker at the top of the mountain.

In the end, when everyone walked to the top of the mountain, Chu Yunfei finally said:

"The bunkers of your regiment are very reasonably arranged, the combination of trenches and foxholes is quite orderly, and it has a strong pertinence to the Japanese attack.

Chu Yunfei's tone was serious.

He was telling the truth, war is varied, it is not a textbook word game, it is not a map drawing game, the construction of the fortification system, in the face of different enemies, there are different arrangements, the more perfect the fortifications, the more you need to be surprised.

Although the 358th Regiment fought with the Japanese army many times, compared to the Independent Regiment, it was not a grade.

"The rich combat experience of your regiment and the Japanese army makes Chu admire."

Finally, Chu Yunfei said.

"Head Chu has won the award."

Zhao Gang replied with a smile.

"Still."

Chu Yunfei suddenly raised his tone: "I don't understand the layout of the fortifications here in your regiment. ”

"I want to hear about it." Zhao Gang's face remained unchanged.

"Your regiment's fortifications are directly arranged on the top of the hill next to the road, and the slope of this hill is gentle, what if the Japanese army attacks here one day and uses tanks to attack the position?"

Chu Yunfei pointed to the open slope in the distance and said:

"This slope, this terrain, the Japanese tanks can easily drive up, and I look at the position of your regiment, there are no anti-tank weapons, and no anti-tank trenches have been set up."

"Why is that?"

"On the road here, Japanese tanks can come over."

"Tanks?"

Zhao Gang couldn't help but smile.

Airplanes and tanks, that's fragrant.

After the battle of Shouxian, Boss Chen raised the price greatly, a plane and a pilot on the battlefield are 2,500 tons of grain and 150 tons of materials, as for the tanks on the battlefield, the independent map has not been encountered, and the actual price is not clear, but it will certainly not be low.

"Haha..."

Facing Chu Yunfei's puzzled gaze, Zhao Gang smiled, he pointed to a large-caliber heavy machine gun in the distance and said, "Come, Regiment Commander Chu has come to take a look at the anti-tank weapons of our regiment." ”

"This is an American M2 heavy machine gun, 12.7 caliber."

Chu Yunfei looked at the heavy machine gun that Zhao Gang pointed at:

"If it's a Japanese armored car, or a Douding tank, this machine gun is indeed okay, but if it's a Type 95 or a tank with thicker armor, I'm afraid it won't be able to penetrate its armor."

The data of this kind of gun, Chu Yunfei is naturally like a treasure.

"At this point, Head Chu is wrong."

Zhao Gang said: "This heavy machine gun can penetrate any tank currently equipped by the Japanese army within 300 meters, and it can also be used for air defense." ”

"According to the weapons information given by the American side that I contacted, this should not be possible, is this not the American M2 heavy machine gun in your regiment?"

Chu Yunfei aggravated the word "United States".

"Let's put it to the test."

Zhao Gang didn't continue to explain, but walked to the heavy machine gun not far away, and Chu Yunfei also followed with the 358th Regiment.

Walking to the machine gun position, Zhao Gang set up the machine gun, and then organized people to pile up a bunker with sandbags and masonry at a distance of 400 meters, and aimed the machine gun at the bunker that had just been erected:

"Four layers of dirt sandbags, with two thick wooden planks and stone slabs in the middle, have a defensive force equal to about fifteen millimeters of armor, which is the thickness of the armor of a Japanese tank." Zhao Gang pointed to the bunker that had just been set up and said.

"Yes."

Chu Yunfei nodded.

There are also large-caliber machine guns on Japanese tanks, and in the Battle of Taiyuan, Chu Yunfei and the Japanese army fought against each other.

"Head Chu, let's give it a try."

Zhao Gang gave the machine gun grip in his hand to Chu Yunfei.

Looking at the heavy machine gun in front of him, and after looking at the sandbag bunker in the distance, Chu Yunfei pulled the trigger with a puzzled look.

Knock knock, accompanied by the unique sound of large-caliber heavy machine gun gunfire, a cloud of dust rose from the sandbag position in the distance, and this scene caused the soldiers of the guard platoon of the 358th Regiment who came with the team to drool in unison.

They don't have this thing in the 358th regiment.

But Chu Yunfei and Fang Ligong saw more.

Extending their gaze over the smoke-filled sandbag bunker, they saw that the bullet had penetrated the sandbag bunker and hit the trees behind it.

"This..."

Chu Yunfei was stunned at that time, and even a little cold sweat broke out on his back.

If the 358th Regiment and the Independent Regiment were engaged in battle, and they still used normal experience to build bunkers, then this heavy machine gun alone could have caused the defensive line to collapse.

"This bullet..."

Chu Yunfei, as a high-achieving student, naturally thought of the key point for the first time.

"Yes."

The smile on Zhao Gang's face became gentler and gentler:

"This is indeed an American M2 heavy machine gun, but the bullet it uses is different, this is a tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile, and the charge is strengthened, and the penetration capacity is about twice that of ordinary bullets."

"It can penetrate any devil tank and any position within 300 meters."

In the end, Zhao Gang sighed with a smile:

"In modern warfare, technology is also an important factor in determining the direction of war."

"Tungsten alloy armor-piercing projectile, twice the armor-piercing ability."

Chu Yunfei finally couldn't control his expression.

This kind of weapon, although he has never seen it, but he has heard that even abroad, it is a very precious ammunition, which is difficult to produce, expensive, and only equipped on tank guns.

Chu Yunfei lowered his head and looked at a bullet box placed next to the heavy machine gun.

It can be seen from the color of the warhead and the paint on the outside that this box is tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells, and it is obvious that there is no shortage of this thing in the independent regiment. Otherwise, he would not have been given dozens of rounds at a time.

"Good guns, good bullets."

There is no question of the origin, Chu Yunfei sighed, with a sour taste in his tone, but also with fear.

With this bullet, plus a large-caliber heavy machine gun, not only devil tanks, but also strong bunkers, turret pillboxes, can be used to deal with, and the improvement of the combat effectiveness of the troops is too great.

If the 358th Regiment and the Independent Regiment were to fight at this time, this heavy machine gun alone would be very tricky.

After seeing the heavy machine gun and tungsten alloy armor-piercing bullets, the soldiers of the guard platoon of the Jinsui Army brought by Chu Yunfei had no arrogance at all, they lowered their heads one by one, and their faces were depressed, and Chu Yunfei's posture was lowered, which made Zhao Gang feel inexplicably comfortable in his heart.

No wonder Lao Li likes to scream.

The convoy continued to drive towards Zhao Jiayu, and the people who were still building the road could still be seen along the way, Chu Yunfei suddenly raised his hand, pointed to the weapon in the middle of a circular position in the distance, and asked;

"This is..."

"Twenty-millimeter anti-aircraft cannon."

Zhao Gang introduced, with a smug tone: "Although the heavy machine gun can also be used against the air, the range is not enough, so our regiment is equipped with this kind of anti-aircraft artillery to deal with the devil's aircraft." ”

"That's right."

Zhao Gang added: "This anti-aircraft gun is also equipped with tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells. ”

Chu Yunfei's face was stiff at that time.

The larger the caliber, the more powerful, if it is a 12.7 caliber heavy machine gun with tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells, he can still cope with it, it is a big deal to add a few layers of sandbags, but the 20-mm cannon plus tungsten alloy armor-piercing shells, unless it is a concrete bunker, it is no different from paper paste.

Fortunately, this weapon has poor mobility and is easy to deal with with mortars or mountain artillery...

As soon as he thought about it, he heard Zhao Gang suddenly interject: "This kind of 20-millimeter anti-aircraft gun can be mounted on the big jeep we are riding on, shoot on the body, and the mobility is very high." ”

Chu Yunfei's copper buckle shrank suddenly, and his expression management was out of control on the spot...

"No wonder your regiment is building roads."

Seeing Chu Yunfei's expression, Zhao Gang seemed to be interested, and began to introduce the weapons of the independent regiment with great interest...

"This is the 60 mortars of my battalion..."

"This is 82 mortars, also ready to be equipped with the battalions below."

"This is a 120 heavy mortar belonging to the regiment, and its power is no worse than that of the devil's divisional and regimental field artillery, but the firing range is a little shorter."

"This is a general-purpose machine gun, and the tripod on the rack can be used as a heavy machine gun, but the bullet consumption is too fast, the rate of fire is 1,500 rounds per minute, which is too bullet-consuming, and the ammunition base of a machine gun group can only be used for three minutes."

"This is the Bofors L24 mountain gun, with a range of ten kilometers, and not long ago our regiment used this kind of artillery to bombard the Devil's Taiyuan Airport."

“······”

Waited for Zhao Jiayu and got on the jeep

······

Just when Political Commissar Zhao was enthusiastically introducing the equipment of the Independent Regiment, Taiyuan and Yamamoto finally met his old boss.

Lieutenant General Yoshio Shinozuka.

"Yamamoto-kun."

Seeing Yamamoto, Shinozuka, who was drinking tea again, smiled and said:

"With your status, it's not suitable to see me."

Although he has no real power, he is a lieutenant general after all, and he has connections, so he naturally knows that Yamamoto is still the intelligence head of the Taiyuan First Army at this time, and he is valued by Yoshimoto Sadachi.

With such an identity, it is somewhat inappropriate to meet him, the former commander of the First Army.

"I have the consent of General Yoshimoto."

Yamamoto has experienced so many years of real beatings, and he has more or less learned a little bit of human sophistication, and he told Yoshimoto before he came.

"Hehe..."

Shinozuka smiled and didn't continue to speak.

"General."

Sitting in front of Shinozuka, Yamamoto hesitated for a moment before asking, "Are you really here..."

Before he came, he inquired that in the past few months in Beiping, Shinozuka really didn't ask about the military every day, and he was uncomfortable drinking tea and drinking, and he had a retired posture, which made Yamamoto very incomprehensible.

How did the general, who worked so hard for the great cause of the empire, become like this?

"Yamamoto-kun, it's time for me to retire too."

Yoshio Shinozuka drank tea by himself, and his tone was leisurely: "The empire needs more capable people to be in charge of the First Army to deal with Li Yunlong and clear the law and order in Shanxi." ”

Retired, Yoshio Shinozuka plans to lie down, and he can finally say Li Yunlong's name again without scruples.

"General."

Yamamoto suddenly paused for a moment before he said, "I'm here this time to ask for your opinion. ”

After being under the hands of Yoshio Shinozuka for so long, Yamamoto has already figured out the temper of his old boss, and from this tone, it can be heard that his own general is obviously still thinking about eliminating Li Yunlong.

"Recently, we received information that Li Yunlong and his independent regiment are building hard roads on a large scale with a large number of manpower at their station."

"Build a road?"

Yoshio Shinozuka put down the teacup in his hand.

"Yes, from all kinds of intelligence, it seems that Li Yunlong intends to build a solid rear base." Saying this, Yamamoto couldn't help but laugh, with a mocking smile.

Li Yunlong's cultivation of the highway, no matter from that point of view, is to make a dowry for the empire.

It's just that, contrary to Yamamoto's expectations, his old general, Yoshio Shinozuka, stood up suddenly, his pupils constricted, and his tone was full of disbelief:

"Nani, Li Yunlong is building a road?"

"What is the scale of construction, has there been a clear investigation?"

Yoshio Shinozuka didn't notice the tea set that he knocked over, and hurriedly asked Yamamoto.
