Chapter 87

"Hmph."

At the garrison of the expeditionary force, a group of soldiers in the training ground were training intensively, and under the leadership of the instructor of the independent regiment in gray clothes, they were walking in a uniform manner, looking at this scene, a regiment commander in the distance snorted coldly:

"I thought this independent regiment was so powerful, but it was just because of the equipment."

"yes."

Beside him, there is also a regimental leader:

"All staff are equipped with semi-automatic rifles, general-purpose machine guns are used in squads, ammunition per capita reaches 300 rounds, grenades per capita are five, each platoon is equipped with one hand gun, one large-caliber heavy machine gun, two 60 mortars for the company, two 82 mortars for the battalion, and four 120 heavy mortars for the regiment."

"There are more than a dozen 105 heavy guns at the brigade level, and there are special logistics battalions responsible for transporting artillery shells."

"That's how the Americans' descendants are in this position."

"With this firepower, it's hard to lose against the devil."

"Yes."

The first regimental commander also spoke:

"If we had this firepower, we would have driven the devil back to our hometown a long time ago."

The two of them spoke in a sour tone, and continued to mutter, envy, and jealousy...

"Hmph."

The two of them were more than ten meters away, and Fang Ligong, who happened to be passing by, glanced at the two of them, strode towards the training camp, and snorted coldly during the period:

"Two pieces of shit, idiot."

The two of them completely forgot that at the beginning of their outing, the expeditionary force had superior equipment and not weak firepower, but they were beaten by the devil several times.

A few years ago, when the 358th Regiment and the Independent Regiment were still stationed next to each other, at that time, he thought the same as these two fools.

At that time, he was also an idiot.

I thought that the core of the strength of the independent regiment lies in those advanced weapons and equipment, if it loses these, the independent regiment will be nothing, and that Li Yunlong will be mediocre.

However, after so much contact around Zhao Jiayu, and the subsequent experience of the independent regiment fighting with the devils many times, his thinking changed a little, and he realized that a force may not be strong with advanced weapons alone.

Finally, the 358th Regiment participated in the Battle of Central Henan, retreated all the way south to Shancheng, and expanded into the expeditionary force, accepted the support of Li Yunlong, and obtained the same weapons as the independent regiment.

Although only light weapons.

But at this time, Fang Ligong recognized a fact.

Even if.

Li Yunlong did not have any external support, and the independent regiment relied entirely on itself to solve the logistics supply of weapons and equipment, and it must be a well-known army, a force that made the devil grit his teeth but was helpless.

This regiment, as well as the troops to which this regiment is located, are really different from their own group of people.

Fang Ligong gradually walked to the training ground.

Compared with the airport, the construction of the training ground is much simpler, tunnels, trenches, foxholes... Some regular training obstacles and bunkers, shooting ranges, and a rough-compacted playground.

At this time, the battalion that was training had stopped its normal steps and was resting at the end of the training playground.

At the end of the training ground, blackboards are erected, and an instructor in a gray military uniform is teaching soldiers to learn literacy word by word.

Although the troops participating in the expeditionary force are all elite, this part of the elite is mainly officers, grassroots soldiers, and they are still strong men recruited from all over the country - they don't know a few big characters.

Teaching this group of people is more difficult than teaching children, but this instructor is still full of patience, teaching word by word, and answering any questions very patiently.

From simple math, literacy, and complex international situations, are carefully answered.

"Hey..."

Fang Ligong sighed.

In the troops on his side, except for the special units such as the teaching corps, most of the grassroots soldiers are strong men and cannon fodder, and they have never been looked at squarely, no one cares about their ideas and needs, and even oppresses the grassroots soldiers.

Even if it is the descendant of the Central Army.

And Li Yunlong's group, every soldier felt valued.

They are all treated like human beings.

Take into account their thoughts, answer their doubts, and guide their path.

On the battlefield, the gap between the two is not to be thought of.

"Our troops, even if they are a miscellaneous division, are sharpened in the opposite side for a period of time, and they are still an iron-clad army."

Fang Ligong somewhat understood the meaning of his regiment commander's words, and also understood why he took the initiative to ask Li Yunlong to send these 'Zhengwei' instructors to train and teach his own troops.

"7 regiments."

Fang Ligong came to the side of the commander of the Seventh Regiment who was at the training ground and conveyed Chu Yunfei's order:

"The day after tomorrow, you will attack the devil's forward position in Little Finger Mountain."

After a month and a half of training, the troops are about to start attacking the devils.

"Yes."

The commander of the Seventh Regiment puffed out his chest.

····

At the same time.

Tokyo.

Underground Prime Minister's Office.

"What is the situation in the Kwantung Army?"

Mitsumasa Minei's tone was weak.

After Ishihara left, he supported himself alone, but the subcontinent was cut off, Southeast Asia was also cut off, and the empire almost lost its source of goods outside the peninsula and the Republic of China.

However, the mainland is still suffering from large-scale bombing, and domestic contradictions are intensifying.

The locust repeatedly ordered him to open the passage and solve the problem of lack of supplies, and the important ministers also joined forces to exert pressure, giving him great pressure.

If it weren't for the Kwantung Army, to be precise, Tanaka Ken, Ito Kotaro and others increased the transportation of necessary materials such as grain and sugar to the mainland, which stabilized the domestic situation somewhat, he would have been forced to step down long ago.

Therefore, at this time, Mitsumasa Yonechi attached great importance to Tanaka's news. And by the way, he completely handed over the command of the puppet Manchurian region to Tanaka Kan, and even mobilized some troops from the peninsula to go.

"General Tanaka telegraphed that he had gathered eighty percent of the imperial forces and formed a number of large defensive positions in depth with Changchun as the center, temporarily blocking the enemy's attack."

"In addition, he suggested continuing to retreat north while ensuring the safety of the transport routes, and using the influence of the north to force the independent regiment to suspend the offensive."

The one who came replied.

"Yo Si."

Mitsumasa Yonechi breathed a sigh of relief.

There is finally good news.

"Reply to General Tanaka and say that I agree with his plan."

Mitsumasa Minechi didn't think about it and agreed directly.

"General Ito's telegram."

The debriefing devil continued:

"The latest batch of 100,000 tons of grain has been transported, and it is expected to arrive in mainland China in five days."

"Yo Si."

Mitsumasa Yonechi smiled again.

·····

Meanwhile.

Mosco.

"You go warn them."

The bearded man had a pipe in his mouth and said in an unkind tone:

"The army should not go near the border, otherwise..."

In the end, the bearded man's threatening words failed to come out.

He wanted to be ruthless, but he didn't use the past.

Now my side is worried about internal and external troubles.

The mustache suddenly took a big tonic, launched a frenzied attack in winter, captured a large number of territory again, and severely damaged his own troops, if he hadn't seen the bad retreat quickly, I am afraid that the battle of Kiev would be repeated.

And this victory, not only caused troop losses, loss of territory, but also fear.

The enemy also won in winter, and Mosco's winter was no longer a moat.

Thanks to the continuous transportation of materials and the repair of the damaged factory, the mustache was fond of bombing Qiu Fatzi, and did not bomb his rear, otherwise he really couldn't hold on.

So I can't let out any cruel words.

Today's Far Eastern Army is already an empty shell.

And a new round of mustache is coming, and he can only do his best to deal with it, and he wants to transfer the remaining empty shells to the Eastern Front.

"They reached out to us."

The man in the house replied:

"I'm about to report on this."

"They assured us that they would absolutely refrain from coming into close contact with us to avoid misunderstandings."

"Good."

The bearded man's face instantly became happy, and he even took a puff of his pipe:

"It seems that we still have a lot of influence over them."

Take the initiative to report and assure, this is obviously a low-profile approach, so that the bearded man thinks that the other party is showing weakness.

"After all, a lot of them have studied with us, and we're the center."

The man under the table answered:

"Can we ask them for some supplies?"

This person is talking about requirements.

"You go and arrange it."

The bearded man nodded, and then he accentuated his tone:

"No, you go personally."
