Rise From Eight Hundred Chapter 953

Chapter 953 Homecoming is as fast as an arrow!

But war makes peace and happiness destined to be short-lived!

Even though Tang Dao was reluctant to let go after a long sleep, he finally had to pull his hand out from under Tantai Mingyue's head and wake her up.

There is no way, yesterday's joy, peace and tranquility already belong to yesterday, today Tang Dao still has to fulfill his responsibility as the leader.

Today, he must hand over the distribution of all trophies with the 683rd Brigade, and then bring the trophies back to Dakouzi Cave dozens of miles away!

In fact, it is not that troublesome. Tang Dao required three 75mm mountain cannons, three infantry cannons and 200 rounds of various artillery shells for all kinds of Japanese weapons captured in the Battle of Beiganling, as well as all the telephone numbers. Machines, switches and telephone lines, these things are not high-tech, but now they are one of the most urgently needed supplies for the Four Lines Group.

When the garrison was first built, the regiment headquarters, the three infantry battalions, and the arsenal all needed the quickest connections. The communications troops could not be allowed to run around constantly.

Other than that, the most valuable items may be the tank wreckage that the 921st Division worked tirelessly to move back. The broken steel plates seem to be of little use now.

But Tang Dao valued this batch of broken steel plates no less than the three mountain cannons, because the Dakouzidong station, which was under construction, needed steel too much. Not only did the military factory need raw materials for making guns, but it also involved various industries. Protection of similar buildings and permanent bunkers.

Tang Dao knew that in the past, the Japanese army would not organize an infantry brigade to attack Dakouzi Cave until three years later because of the increasingly expanding military factory of the Eightyth Army. However, this era is destined to have changed.

Dakouzidong will not only have a well-equipped arsenal, but also supporting factories such as power generation, smelting, and textiles. It can become a new industrial base.

The Japanese army will never easily allow an industrial base like this to exist that can continuously provide weapons and ammunition to hundreds of thousands of troops. A large-scale invasion that far exceeds the past may be in the near future.

The topography of Dakouzi Cave is extremely special. There are cliffs stretching for dozens of miles within the territory. The Japanese army wanted to rely only on plane bombing. Not to mention that their air force level was far inferior to that of Western countries. Even if they reached that level, they would face the vast mountains hundreds of miles in radius. , Throwing thousands of tons of aerial bombs is just like throwing a stone into a pond, and at most it makes a splash.

If you want to destroy, you can only rely on infantry.

It is necessary to build permanent fortifications on those thoroughfares.

There is no lime factory in Dakouzi Cave now, so we will first use existing materials, using locally produced red stone as the main material. The stone is bonded with ancient glutinous rice juice. There are two layers on the inside and outside, with a thickness of 50 centimeters. Sandwiched with 30mm thick steel plates, the fortification could not be destroyed unless the Japanese invaders used 100mm cannons to bombard it or blasted it with explosives.

Only three such permanent fortifications are needed to form crossfire and cover their respective flanks. Three permanent fortifications do not require too many troops. 12 soldiers, 4 machine guns, 4 submachine guns and 4 rifles. , as long as enough bullets are given, the entire passage can be blocked, stopping an infantry squadron from moving forward.

In the Normandy landing in time and space, a German soldier in a bunker on the coastline used an MG42 and 10,000 rounds of ammunition to cover the beach with the corpses of Allied troops.

The reason, in addition to the terrifying rate of fire of the MG42 machine gun, is that the Allied soldiers who rushed to the coast in pure infantry mode did not have cannons that could destroy permanent fortifications, and the large-caliber ships anchored on the sea ten miles away The cannon was unable to accurately hit the small bunker, which contributed to this tragedy.

It can be seen that in the era without RPGs and missiles, permanent fortifications were definitely a nightmare for light infantry.

Just like the Japanese North China Front Army Headquarters in the future, which had strong walls and clear fields, and spent a lot of manpower and material resources to build trenches and connect them with bunkers, the Eightyth Army, which was mostly light infantry, was also helpless in the early stage.

There is no artillery that can break through the bunker. A small detachment of Japanese troops is inside the bunker and can withstand the siege of a hundred or even hundreds of Chinese troops.

Even the Eighty Group Army cannot afford the kind of battle that consumes lives.

But if the Eightyth Army had infantry artillery or enough 20mm machine guns, the Japanese army's bunker connection tactics would be a loss of lives.

When there is a lime factory and the ability to make concrete in the future, Tang Dao will also upgrade these permanent fortifications, so that the Japanese can also fully appreciate the pain they caused to the American cowboys on the small Pacific islands.

If possible, Tang Dao even thought of using Brigadier Cheng's tactics on the ice field to dig underground tunnels into the mountain walls around the station to form an underground Great Wall.

But then I thought about it, the stone mountains here are even harder than the mountains on the ice sheet. If we dig them all out, we still don't know how many years and months we can dig them out with the current purely human method, not to mention that the Japanese can't reach the level of the Americans. The level of firepower, being able to transport a 100mm cannon into the mountains, would give Tang Dao a thumbs up.

In addition, if Tang Dao wants to expand his cavalry company, he will also need dozens of Oriental war horses.

In addition to these, all other firearms, ammunition, helmets, bayonets, pack horses, etc. Tang Dao will not be left to the 921st Division.

"It's not that I don't want it, it's that our regiment needs food far more than bullets!" Tang Dao explained with a serious look. "However, my regiment only has so many people and troops, and it can't be accommodated. You look so eager to give, do I have reason to suspect that you want to deprive my regiment of food?"

"You kid, you know how to talk nonsense!" Brigadier Cheng punched Tang Dao **** the shoulder. "I've remembered this sentiment."

There are only more than 300 regular troops from the Fourth Line Regiment's Baggage Company, but are there still horsemen? There are nearly 300 grooms, 150 carts, and 260 pack horses. This transport capacity can almost overwhelm the 921st Division's supply camp, okay?

Besides, no one stipulates that if the shipment is not completed at one time, it will not be accepted. If the shipment is not completed this time, it will be returned next time. Anyway, the distance between the two armies is only 50 miles.

Since Brigadier Cheng offered to accept this favor, Tang Dao didn't want this favor to be so cheap, let alone the leader of the main force who was about to hook up with him!

Speaking of which, it's time to talk about Captain Ye. He originally arrived last night, but in the end Tang Dao didn't see him at the celebration banquet.

Tang Dao, who was already half drunk, was still wondering in his heart whether Brigadier Cheng Da was reluctant to let go and was planning to fool him.

When he heard the message from a signal soldier, Brigadier Cheng looked a little ugly at that time. He explained to Tang Dao, and then Tang Dao realized the reason why this man did not come to the celebration banquet.

It turned out that maybe because of the hasty walking and the night wind, the body of this man who had just been recovering in the field hospital at the division headquarters could not hold on anymore.

As soon as he arrived, he coughed violently and even coughed up blood. He went directly to the 683 Brigade Medical Team. The doctor there diagnosed him with an old lung problem and he needed to rest.

Tang Dao suddenly remembered that this young regiment leader, who was only 24 years old, had lung disease. He had always been sick in battle in the past, and many times he had to be carried on a stretcher.

Because he died too early, no records were left to determine what disease he suffered from. However, based on the fact that Tang Dao was young and strong but was so weak that he had to go to the battlefield on a stretcher, it was most likely that he was suffering from tuberculosis. This is the tuberculosis of the future!

In this era without antibiotics, the disease is almost incurable.

Fortunately, Tang Dao is available in this era. Penicillin, the first antibiotic invented in the world, sounds very high-end, but in fact, as long as the principle is understood, it is not that difficult to purify this drug.

Tang Dao knew that the development and extraction of penicillin must be put on the agenda as soon as possible.

Not only to treat this future right-hand man, but also those wounded soldiers, the emergence of penicillin can make the treatment rate of wound bacterial infection more than 90%, which also means that the mortality rate due to wound bacterial infection has greatly increased. decline.

It is estimated that this regiment leader will have to recuperate in the 683 brigade medical team for a period of time. Tang Dao is not in a hurry. As long as he gets rid of this fool before the end of March and prevents him from participating in the battle of Xiangtangpu, the original star The sacrifices caused by stray bullets would not have happened. In order to let his future partner rest in peace, Tang Dao did not bother him when he woke up in the morning. He just asked Tantai Mingyue to go to the 683 Brigade Medical Team on his behalf to deliver a Browning pistol and 50 yuan in cash.

Browning pistols are the standard equipment of several officers of the Four Lines Regiment. That means that whether the night leader likes it or not, he is already a member of the Four Lines Regiment, even if he is currently on secondment.

Naturally, the 50 yuan is for this person to buy more nutritional supplements to replenish his health. Although there are no large supermarkets here, this mountain is rich in products, including wild animals and old medicines. With the way the Eightyth Army operates, if he does not give Money, they would never ask for anything from the mountain people in vain.

Tang Dao at the 683 Brigade Headquarters mainly handles the handover of the distribution of various trophies with Brigadier Cheng and the munitions director in charge of logistics. Tang Dao didn't have to worry about these things originally. The munitions director of the 683 Brigade made the distribution well yesterday.

But Tang Dao generously said that he didn't want all those weapons. Although he gave a nonsense reason, how could Brigadier Cheng Da not accept this?

But he didn't know how deep his feelings were.

Of the grain transported back from Lucheng, 680,000 kilograms were left after excluding yesterday's celebration banquet. Tang Dao, who was supposed to distribute 340,000 kilograms of grain, only received 300,000 kilograms.

In addition, Tang Dao did not take any of the total of 100,000 yuan originally seized by Yin Dong Gua and Xian Dayang, leaving all of it to the 921 Division as funding.

Moreover, Tang Dao also said that the combat allowances, pensions, rewards, etc. promised to all officers and soldiers yesterday evening will all be borne by the Four Lines Regiment. The amount for the 921 Division will be around 100,000 yuan. This amount will be paid next Once a four-line regiment came to transport the remaining food and delivered it to the 683 brigade headquarters.

Good guy! Brigadier Cheng Da was moved to tears and flowers at this time. He just had to promise Tang Dao that if you need anything, as long as my brother can do it, I will definitely do it for you.

If you hadn't seen Tang Dao and planned to climb along the pole.

Tang Dao's "wretched" expression made Brigadier Cheng Da, who was still in a state of excitement, feel a chill in his chest for no reason.

Afterwards, Brigadier Cheng Da recalled this impulse and felt a little scared!

Last time, because of a batch of arms sent by someone from Tang Dynasty, he patted his chest and said that he owed Tang Dao a favor. The result was great. Tang Dao just used this favor to block his mouth, and he lost the leader of the main force.

Although Wang Xiaoqiang is also capable of being the leader of the main regiment, can't he have one more regiment in the 683 Brigade?

You know, he is no longer the poor brigade commander of the "Three Gun Brigade" before! Now he is a wealthy man with more than 2,200 rifles, dozens of light and heavy machine guns, and hundreds of thousands of machine rifle bullets in his hands.

More importantly, there is still money to pay, so starting an independent group is just a joke!

How about calling Brigadier Cheng Da the "Three Heroes of Huangpu"! His instincts are really great.

Tang Dao made such a big concession, but he really had "bad intentions"!

During the entire war, not only the commander of the 772nd Regiment, the strongest infantry regiment under the 683rd Brigade, died in battle, but the first commander of the three major infantry battalions would all die in battle in the future, including Xiao Xiao, who was already very familiar with Tang Dao. Battalion Commander Ding.

That is really a pity. If they had not died on the battlefield too early, the status of these three people in the Chinese military community in the future would not be much lower than Wang Xiaoqiang.

Tang Dao originally hoped that Brigadier Cheng Da would be moved to make another promise, so he accepted it unceremoniously and transferred all three of them to the Four Elements Regiment when the time was right.

Don't worry about the Si Xing Regiment not having a place. According to Tang Dao's plan, when all the German weapons are successfully transported back, the Si Xing Regiment will not have three infantry battalions, but nine equipped with machine guns, infantry cannons, and mortars. An infantry battalion with heavy fire support and the ability to fight independently is his ideal situation.

Since going to the north and breaking away from the supervision of the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, Tang Dao has no intention of getting promoted from the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs, let alone upgrading the establishment of the Four Lines Regiment.

Because Tang Dao knew very well that the Ministry of Military Affairs would never let an elite force fall outside their control. If Tang Dao received the promotion order that day, he would probably be transferred out of the Four Elements Regiment and placed in a idle position.

Being out of the mainstream and not being able to upgrade through formal channels is a shortcoming, but it also has advantages.

Without the so-called mainstream clampdown, ready-made teachers are right in front of us. How the 80th Army did it? Tang Dao is now learning and selling it.

　　An infantry regiment and three infantry battalions are stipulated, and military pay must be paid on a per-capita basis. If you raise your own military salary and don't ask for money from above at all, as long as you can afford it, you can have 10 or 20 battalions as long as you want, right?

Of course, soldiers have always been more valuable than more expensive!

There will be hundreds of thousands of puppet troops in North China in the future. What will their combat effectiveness be like? The 80th Army often did not even include the number of enemies annihilated in battles with the puppet troops in its battle reports.

Tang Dao felt that with nine infantry battalions, plus the artillery battalion, baggage battalion, special agent battalion and other directly subordinate units, the combat strength was basically sufficient.

Of course, these are not decisions that Tang Dao can make with just a slap on the forehead. It requires discussion and agreement by all the regiment chiefs, including his partners who will not be able to report for more than ten days; nor does it mean that as soon as the equipment arrives, the nine infantry battalions will If something happens, there must be enough reserve troops.

Tang Dao actually understood very well the behavior of sending young men to the battlefield after less than a week of training. He knew that war is so cruel. When the enemy sweeps in and the commander does not have enough soldiers to resist, let alone Farmers, even women and children, may also be brutally thrown into the battlefield.

All kindness is ridiculous in the face of war!

In the defense battles of Mao Xiong's major cities, ordinary people are the soldiers.

If you fight, you will die! If you don't fight, you will die! How would you choose?

The city that swallowed the lives of nearly 2 million soldiers on both sides of the war actually swallowed hundreds of thousands of residents. Only a few thousand people were able to walk out of the city alive.

I understand, but this does not mean that Tang Dao will adopt this approach. When conditions permit, he hopes to give the soldiers enough training opportunities, just like he previously put the recruits in the baggage company for training, and then put them on the edge of the battlefield. Feel the battlefield atmosphere, which can make their survival rate on the real battlefield more than half.

Perhaps Tang Dao will do the same in the future. All new recruits will undergo a one-month training and then be put into the supply camp. They will be led by veterans who are injured and disabled and can no longer serve on the front line. Finally, they will be added to the front line troops. .

The supply camp in the future may be the largest unit in the Four Lines Regiment, and it is basically filled with reserve soldiers.

With the Tang Dao's sharp knife, the handover is very fast, but the loading is a little slow!

Although the transport capacity of the baggage company is already considerable, it still only loaded the broken steel plates, fragmentary materials and 150,000 kilograms of grain.

This time there was no need to move things and run away like last time. Tang Dao did not let the guard company and cavalry carry the food bags alone again, and agreed with the 683 brigade to transport them again in about ten days and a half.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, they didn't even have lunch. Everyone brought the meat buns prepared by the 683 Brigade - white flour buns stuffed with boiled horse meat. Tang Dao led the crowd to see off the two division leaders and Cheng Da. The brigade commander and several regiment commanders who had just woken up from their hangovers said goodbye with a military salute and embarked on the road back to their base.

There were many people waiting for them in the mountains fifty miles away.

There are living people and there are dead people!

Everyone in the Si Xing Group is ready to return home!

PS: Come on, I feel bad all over. Who said that you can be inspired like a fountain every day at home? Why is it that the more I stay at home, the duller my brain becomes? After a day of online classes, I was so exhausted that I felt a lot slower in typing. I didn't finish writing until this point, and I was so convinced.
