Fengxian Jiangshan

The No.19 division had captured Zhanggufeng before and was developing in depth. As a result, Qin Wei commanded the Feng army to break through the Yalu River from the direction of Tumen and plunge into their rear.Originally responsible for the vigilance in this area was a regiment of the No.20 Division. They were fighting to the death with Feng Jun to buy time for the No.19 Division.

As a result, after the order to retreat was issued, the regiment had no choice but to run away. Qin Wei led the army, as if entering the land of no one, it only took less than two days to successfully occupy Luojin.At this time, the two main regiments of the No. 19 Division, the 73rd and 74th regiments, had just crossed the Tumen River and wanted to retreat to Seoul, but the back road was cut off, and they suddenly became lonely ghosts, in an unprecedented situation bad.

The front, back, left, and right were all Fengjun troops. They fell into the encirclement. Qin Wei was also overjoyed. Although Fengjun had already wiped out the Sixth Division, the elimination of a standing division in an organized way would still have an impact on Japan. It is huge, and it can better show the strength of Fengjun to the world.

Everyone knows that injured beasts are the most dangerous. In this state, the No. 19 Division is also the easiest to fight, so they must be fully prepared.Qin Wei commanded the Seventh Division, deployed a dense line of defense in Luojin, and collected tens of thousands of sticks to let them build roads and transport supplies.

Just when everything was almost ready, the No.19 Division finally bumped into it. They knew there was a trap here, but they had no choice.

From the beginning of the battle, the battle became intense. After the Japanese made a brief artillery preparation, they shouted the slogans onboard and launched a tidal charge.

The Japanese are best at breaking through the middle. In fact, to put it bluntly, they rely on firepower and fearlessness to fight hard.Qin Wei had already figured out the Japanese's three-pointed axe. If it was other divisions, he might have to be wary of it. A North Korean division is not worth fearing.

The Feng army concentrated its artillery fire and launched a fierce bombardment with the Japanese. Due to the long range and great power of the Feng army's heavy artillery, they knocked out half of the Japanese artillery in less than an hour.

The firepower dropped sharply, and the Japanese soldiers in the charge were out of luck. The Fengjun concentrated machine guns, mortars, and grenades to form a firepower blockade.As long as it enters the range, it will be smashed into a sieve and broken into pieces.The corpses on the ground piled up more and more, like a hill. The Japanese could only step on the corpses of the people in front and rush upwards. The thick blood stimulated their nerves.

Just when the two sides were fighting to the point of death, Feng Jun's No.11 Division finally rushed over. These days they have been suppressed and beaten by the Japanese, and even Zhanggufeng was occupied by the Japanese.Each of them held a resentment in their hearts, why did they fight so hard while other troops were able to win successively!

Seeing the Japanese retreating suddenly, the opportunity the soldiers had been looking forward to to vent their anger finally came. They chased the Japanese buttocks and killed them.

With their joining, a situation of two-sided attack has been formed. In addition to them, Hou Lang, who has made contributions in the Far East, also led a cavalry brigade to kill, and three troops surrounded the No.19 Division.

The battle was extremely fierce, the Japanese were dying, and many wounded soldiers simply fired grenades, and died with the Feng army. The explosion sounded on the battlefield made everyone feel chilling.

In the face of desperate enemies, the way to defeat them is to be even more desperate. The soldiers of the No. 11 Division also became crazy. They braved the Japanese bullets and made bold intersperses, cutting the Japanese on the battlefield into pieces. At this time, Hou Lang took advantage of the speed of the cavalry and trampled them all into meat sauce.

The battle lasted for about a day and a half, and the main force of the No.19 Division was wiped out. The news spread quickly throughout the world.

Chapter 654 Hurricane

Before the smoke in Luojin cleared, three cargo ships appeared outside the port, loaded with food and munitions.After a great battle, Qin Wei's northern army also consumed a lot of supplies and urgently needed replenishment.

He personally brought the troops to the port, and it was Liu Shaoqing who was in charge of delivering the goods. He has now been promoted to the director of the Military Supplies Procurement Department, and has a major say in the procurement of various weapons and military supplies. Even Zhang Tinglan's opinions He was dismissed several times by Liu Shaoqing.

But the more this is the case, the more prosperous Liu Shaoqing is in Fengjun, and he is highly valued. After all, the issue of military supplies is too important. With an unselfish and shrewd person staring at him, everyone can rest assured.

After getting off the cargo ship and seeing Qin Wei, he smiled and said, "Old sir, you wiped out a Japanese regiment, but your reputation has grown so great that everyone in the world knows about it!"

"It's nothing. The No.19 division is not the main force, and it's not all wiped out. It's just two main teams. It's no match for Old Sun!"

Although he said so, Qin Wei still showed joy on his face. He was also very satisfied with this battle, but he failed to capture the military flag, which was far less brilliant than Sun Anhu's victory in Gaizhou. He was still a little bit competitive the meaning of.

Liu Shaoqing also smiled and said: "Old officer, you don't need to worry, another good thing has been found, it's up to you to show your skills."

When Qin Wei heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, and he said with a smile: "Your boy has been promoted to a high-ranking official, so you won't come to the front line easily. There must be something good about coming here this time, so hurry up and tell me about it."

"Old officer, don't worry, I'll show you something first."

While speaking, a lot of things had been unloaded from the boat, and Qin Wei noticed that there were more than a dozen squares covered with thatch in the middle.It seems like a classic car, but it seems to be a little bigger.

Liu Shaoqing took a few steps, brushed it, and tore off the tarpaulin, revealing the true face of Lushan Mountain inside. Although this thing is also like a classic car, it has four wheels, but it is also obviously different.The body is wider and stronger, the wheels are bigger and wider, and the most special thing is that the car is completely open.There is only a metal frame on it.

Seeing this strange looking thing, Qin Wei frowned: "Shaoqing, what is this thing, what's so special about it?"

Liu Shaoqing smiled and said: "Old sir, this is our latest military off-road vehicle. The code name is Mustang, and its off-road performance is outstanding. It can carry people and weapons. Compared with armored vehicles and tanks, this thing can be called an assault vehicle. Qingqi."

Liu Shaoqing calmly introduced the situation to Qin Wei. In fact, the so-called Mustang off-road vehicle is very similar to the jeep concept of later generations.

With the construction of mechanization, Fengjun faced an important problem.That is to make the infantry quicker and put the infantry on wheels.Zhang Tinglan also knows that the jeep is a very good all-rounder, able to complete almost any task, but this thing was developed by the US military before World War II.At this time has not yet appeared.

Therefore, Zhang Tinglan decided to settle for the next best thing, and got a pickup truck production line, and wanted to temporarily use the pickup truck to take on some military tasks.However, after Liu Shaoqing took charge of the procurement of military supplies, he focused on sorting out all the major procurement items and carefully studied the problems.

Originally, Feng Jun had never doubted Zhang Tinglan's judgment, even to the point of blind obedience, questioning Zhang Tinglan's decision was like a crime.But Liu Shaoqing found that the project of introducing pickup trucks had many problems and could not meet the needs of the army.For this reason, he studied without sleep for three days, finally gritted his teeth and decided to visit Zhang Tinglan and report the problems he found.

The problems discovered by Liu Shaoqing can be summarized into three aspects, production difficulties, high prices, and insufficient transportation capacity.For the United States, which can mass-produce cars, pickup trucks are naturally nothing special, but for Feng Jun, the technical difficulty is still quite high. Even if there is a production line, a large number of excellent technicians must be invested.

In addition, the production cost of a pickup is almost close to that of a classic car. No matter how rich Feng Jun is, he cannot afford to equip it.As for the capacity problem, the problem is mainly on the engine. The pickup trucks of later generations can carry more than one ton of cargo without any problem, but it is absolutely impossible now. The gap between the engines is too big.

When the red-eyed Liu Shaoqing stood in front of Zhang Tinglan, our Lan Shuai also noticed his own problems. He tried his best to look at problems from the present perspective instead of the future generations' ideas when dealing with many problems, but sometimes It is still inevitable to be preconceived.

"Shaoqing, your opinion is correct, but what do you think should be done, is it to abandon the pickup truck project?"

"Marshal, I think education is enough for children who are disobedient, and we don't need to beat them to death with a stick, and we really need a multifunctional military transport vehicle. And the pickup truck is not without its merits, it depends on how to use it. "

Liu Shaoqing immediately made a suggestion to Zhang Tinglan. Pickup trucks are relatively comfortable and have a certain transportation capacity. There is a market in China, especially for the people in the Northeast who are rich first. They can afford it. You might as well use pickup trucks to make money.In addition, the main market for pickup trucks is still the western United States. Liu Shaoqing suggested selling pickup trucks to the United States instead, or simply building a factory in the United States, or cooperating in production. In short, the patent for pickup trucks is in the hands of Fengjun.

Then use the funds earned from the pickup truck project to hire professional automotive talents to design a military vehicle according to the needs of the Fengjun.New cars can completely borrow the mature technology of pickup trucks, and they can also use the pickup truck production line to train workers.

Zhang Tinglan also made some calculations. In this way, there is almost no need to invest, and there will be profits if it is done well, so she readily agrees.As a result, after the matter was handed over to Liu Shaoqing, within four months, two auto experts in the United States initially came up with a brand new design plan.

After optimization, it was handed over to Zhang Tinglan. At this time, this thing is almost the same as the jeep of later generations. Zhang Tinglan simply made some changes according to the appearance of the jeep.

In the end, the brand-new military transport vehicle was determined, and then a car production line was obtained from the United States with the patent of the pickup truck. After this installation, qualified jeeps can be produced.

Before the start of the war, Fengjun produced nearly 350 vehicles in total. This time Liu Shaoqing sent [-] vehicles to Qin Wei, basically all of them.

Liu Shaoqing said with a smile: "Old sir, the commander-in-chief has given a special explanation. I hope you can use these vehicles to quickly raid along the river, and finally reach Wonsan Port all the way. In this way, the northern half of North Korea will fall into our hands."

Hearing Liu Shaoqing's words, Qin Wei also became short of breath. He knew the situation in North Korea very well.The railway network of the peninsula presents a huge X-shape, with Seoul in the center and then extending outward. He is now on this section of the railway along the northern coast.

The Japanese heavy troops are still concentrated in the relatively flat south, that is, between Pyongyang and Sinuiju. Those Japanese soldiers are the targets of the Fengjun Central and Southern Front Army.Two legions are enough, and Qin Wei's Northern Front Legion will be redundant.

On the contrary, the troops in the north are empty. If he can use the jeep to carry out a quick assault, he can take advantage of the opportunity to seize the railway line. As Liu Shaoqing said, he can directly hit Wonsan and even quickly threaten Seoul. This attraction is really too great.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei unconsciously walked around the jeep a few times, and his eyes showed surprise. Although the protection ability of this thing is not comparable to that of tanks and armored vehicles, it is superior in speed, maneuverability, and strong off-road ability. Suitable for the mountainous terrain of North Korea.

Moreover, from Rajin to Wonsan, there are not many Japanese garrisons along the way. They are all garrison troops, and there are even North Korean puppet troops.

Thinking of this, Qin Wei's face showed joy, he stepped on the gas pedal suddenly, the jeep roared suddenly, spit out a cloud of black smoke, and rushed out quickly, full of energy, like a wild horse, violent and powerful.

After running around, Qin Wei couldn't help laughing when he got off the car: "Shaoqing, with this thing, North Korea won't be able to escape!"

Qin Wei immediately modified these jeeps, installed machine guns and mortars on them, and at the same time removed the most elite infantry regiment from the Seventh Division and let them ride in jeeps to act as the vanguard of the troops.

More than 300 jeeps lined up in a neat queue and rushed down along the railway line.In order to save face, the Japanese government did not inform the defenders along the way that the No. 19 Division had been wiped out.

But they were also asked to blow up the railway, and then retreat as soon as possible. These Japanese also knew that the situation was not good, so they exploded in a hurry, preparing to escape.

But the speed of Fengjun's arrival far exceeded their imagination. The huge jeep convoy rushed up, and the machine guns on the car fired when they saw the Japanese. The bullets were like raindrops. Before they had time to react, they all shot Dead on the spot.

The Assault Corps also became more and more crazy. The distance between them and the main force was more than fifty kilometers. Qin Wei was both happy and uneasy. The performance of the Assault Corps was beyond imagination, but he also knew that these jeeps were almost Without protection ability, once encountering artillery attack, it will suffer a big loss.

Fortunately, the assault troops seized Chongjin, which is also an important town in the northwest of the Korean peninsula. The Japanese soldiers stationed in Chongjin did not have time to resist, and wiped out the Feng army. At the same time, the Feng army also seized five trains.

With these trains, everything becomes easier. The follow-up troops can use the railways to maneuver. Their speed is getting faster and faster. Like a storm, all the Japanese strongholds along the way are turned into fallen leaves and wiped out. Light.

Qin Wei's army on the Northern Front advanced 110 kilometers in one day, which even surpassed the speed of the German blitz. Not to mention the Japanese couldn't believe it, even the Fengjun himself couldn't believe it. Qin Wei When reporting the situation to Zhang Tinglan again, they were a little trembling.
