Hundreds of millions of cloud explosive bombs were fired at the beginning, and horses were riding on

The golden rewards, especially the words 105mm le.FH18 howitzer, simply blinded Zhang Yunqing's eyes.

good looking

The power of the 105mm German cannon is not comparable to that of ordinary cannons.

Even little devils may not be equipped with cannons of this caliber.

As the saying goes.

When the cannon is fired, there is a thousand taels of gold.

This also highlights the value of cannon in this era.

If you have artillery, it is equivalent to taking the initiative in the infantry era.

The 105mm caliber cannon can no longer be regarded as a light artillery.

It should be said that he is a large artillery.

The Type 70 infantry gun of the Japs is of 41mm caliber, and the Type 75 mountain gun they often use is also of mm caliber.

The larger one is the 90mm mortar, which is what we often call the "small steel cannon".

These three types of artillery are often equipped with various infantry units of the Japanese army.

This is also what we often see on the anti-Japanese battlefield.

The caliber of their cannons rarely exceeds 100mm.

One is because large-caliber cannons are generally powerful, but they are relatively heavy and difficult to carry.

The second reason is because of the large-caliber cannon. Its large caliber means more craftsmanship is used and more money is spent.

Countries like Little Devil, which are already resource-poor, can build large-caliber cannons.

But mass production is still not possible.

But that's it, they relied on the 70mm Type infantry cannon to beat the Chinese troops to a pulp.

Especially for a team like the Eighth Route Army, before Zhang Yunqing came, there was only one artillery battalion.

6 Type infantry guns.

But there were less than 30 shells.

It is conceivable that cannons are precious and scarce.

Take another look at the introduction of this 105mm le.FH18 howitzer.

Caliber: 105mm L/31!

Length: 2.941 meters!

Total combat weight: 1985 kg!

Maximum range: meters!

Staffing: 8 people!

Just look at the weight, it’s close to 4000 pounds!

How many men and horses are needed to pull this? Let’s take the little devil’s Type 600 infantry gun as an example. This gun weighs less than kilograms.

Look at the range again, dear, Duomi.

What a concept.

It's only 12 kilometers. When attacking Ping'an County, you can fire artillery shells by adjusting the angle ten kilometers away.

The little devil's infantry can detect the existence of such a cannon.

Establishment of 8 people.

For 10 cannons, there must be at least 150 people working on them.

At this time, Zhang Yunqing had to think of his old neighbor, Chu Yunfei of the 358th Regiment.

His artillery battalion only has 12 newly-made 75mm mountain guns.

In this way, an artillery battalion was actually established.

I also have several Type 88 infantry cannons, 90mm anti-aircraft guns, and mm mortars, which are not much more powerful than Chu Yunfei's artillery battalion.

This has to be two artillery battalions.

A heavy artillery battalion.

An ordinary artillery battalion.

Zhang Yunqing has already thought about it and will definitely build two artillery battalions when he returns.

Look, we have 5000 rounds of artillery shells!

One cannon shell weighs up to 50 kilograms!

If he loses in a fight with the Japs, it can only be said that Zhang Yunqing is not suitable to be the leader of the new second regiment.

This trip was really fruitful. "

As for the Garand rifle, let's wait and see. Zhang Yunqing has important things to do now.

"Hey, congratulations to the host and his subordinates for killing 67 Japanese soldiers and receiving rewards: Mosin-Nagant rifle*40, bullet*! Ocean*2000!"

"Captain, the battle report has come out."

Zhang Dabiao ran over in a hurry.

"How about it, just tell me."

Zhang Yunqing said.

"Captain, we killed 67 little Japs this time, and none of them were spared. Among them, there were at least 3 Japs majors, 3 lieutenants, 1 colonel, and 1 major general."

"The intact weapons seized include 17 5-type guns, 2 crooked handles, 1000 Type heavy machine guns, unknown bullets, and Dayang."

"We have really caught a big fish. This is a Japanese major general. Our Eighth Route Army has never killed a Japanese major general on the battlefield!"

"If we go back and report it to the headquarters, our New Second Regiment will become famous!"

Zhang Dabiao seemed very excited. In his opinion, being able to kill a Japanese major general was an extremely exciting thing for the entire Chinese army on the anti-Japanese battlefield.

Even better than killing Sakata United!

It is estimated that in two days the whole of Shanxi, or the whole country will know about it.

"Look at your brat, isn't he just a Japanese major general? What's the big deal?"

"Just kill..."

"I tell you, they will definitely become grasshoppers in the future. In the future, our New Second Regiment will kill more Japs..."

"It can even cut off Yoshio Shinozuka's head..."

"One day..."

Although Zhang Yunqing was quite excited inside, it was impossible to show it.

In order to give the soldiers more confidence, he had to be calmer.

However, this good news still needs to be shared with everyone.

"Comrades, we have gained a lot from this battle..."

"The little Japanese's major general, colonel, lieutenant colonel, and major colonel were all wiped out by us."

"Hurry up and clear the battlefield to support the other two battalions!"

Zhang Yunqing shouted.

When the soldiers heard that among the Japanese they killed, there was actually a Japanese major general.

Everyone's face was very excited, obediently, he was actually a major general.

This is a major general!

Even if you go somewhere in the future, you can brag about it. Our New Second Regiment killed a Japanese major general!

However, it’s time to be happy and clean up the battlefield.

"Da Biao, collect all the sabers of those Japanese majors and above for me. They will be of great use in the future."

Zhang Yunqing thought about giving the sabers of these high-ranking Japanese officials as a favor.

Plus the M1911 pistol as a system reward.

The headquarters directly sent the Japanese Major General's saber, and then 5 M1911 pistols.

The division headquarters is equipped with Colonel Sabers and 5 M1911 pistols.

The brigade headquarters has all the Lieutenant Colonel's sabers and 5 M1911 pistols.

Major's, let's see if we can exchange it for something better.

That kid Li Yunlong can replace a lieutenant commander's command knife with thousands of grenades.

Our major's knife can be replaced with 500 pieces.

"Yes! Captain!"

Zhang Dabiao replied loudly.

Soon, Zhang Yunqing gathered everyone and rushed to the ambush site of the second and third battalions.

......

Here, Wang Qiusheng, commander of the Second Mixed Brigade of the Imperial Association Army, was sleeping with his eldest and second aunts.

Suddenly he heard someone calling him outside.

"Brigade commander, brigade commander, it's not good! The cavalry battalion of the Royal Association Army was beaten by the Eighth Route Army!"

Wang Qiusheng woke up directly from his sweet dream.

......
